Chapter 779: Sleeping Worms

No one knew what Shadi and Ye Xi talked about.

It's just that when Shadi walked out of the jade stone house, his face was very complicated, as if he was worried, as if he was unwilling, but there was a hint of disobedience and relaxation between his eyebrows, as if he had let go of a heart.

Then Shadi left Xicheng immediately after leaving the city with all the Chao tribesmen. What's more strange is that the mantis feathers of the Xicheng sting tribe also set off with them.

After a few days, when Duan Ling accompanied Ye Xi to the plantation to see the different plants, he saw that Ye Xi was in a good mood and found the opportunity to ask questions.

Ye Xi: "It's nothing, I just talked about the alliance." ”

Broken Ling lost her voice and said, "Alliance?!"

He knew that Ye Xi and the people of Eryang had been ambushed by the Chao tribe, and thought that their Xicheng and the Chao tribe were hostile. When did they turn enemies into friends, and even discuss alliances?

Ye Xi turned his head and saw Broken Ling's eyes slipping round and his mouth slightly open, an extremely rare stunned appearance, and couldn't help but make a joke: "Don't move!"

"Yes, it's this expression, exactly the same as Sadi that day. ”

Broken Ling protested: "Wu!"

Ye Xi responded with a smile: "Here!"

The alliance has almost been negotiated, and he has been in a good mood for the past two days.

Duan Ling thought for a while and said, "In other words, the Chao tribe didn't know about the alliance before, and we didn't have a friendly relationship with the Chao tribe before, right?"

Ye Xi: "That's right!"

Duan Ling couldn't figure it out: "Then why are you looking for the Chao tribe, the Jiuyi tribe is too far away, I know, but the Eryang tribe should be stronger than the Chao tribe, right?"

Ye Xi smiled: "Because we have the Achilles heel of the Chao tribe in our hands, but we don't have the Eryang tribe." ”

Although the cormorant is a purple bird that is encountered once in hundreds of years, the Eyang tribe will not help Xicheng because of the cormorant tribe, just look at the previous Eyang tribe only sent the three of them to protect the cormorant, and now the Eyang tribe does not even send people anymore.

Broken Ling didn't know about the misanthropic insects, and when she heard this, she was immediately excited: "It turns out that we have mastered the Achilles heel of the Chao tribe!

Ye Xi smiled silently.

Broken Ling then asked, "Then why did the mantis feather follow the Chao tribesmen?"

"You'll find out in a while. ”

Ye Xi advised: "The matter of the alliance with the Chao tribe needs to be kept secret, so far, no more than five people, including the White Turtle Great Witch and the Tushan Great Witch, know about it. ”

"Yes, don't worry!"

......

A few days later.

The people of Jiuyi are about to leave for home.

They bought a lot of things in Xicheng this time, and each monitor lizard was full of goods strapped to it, and at first glance, the monitor lizard had turned into a giant tortoise.

Before parting, Ye Xi handed over a stone box to Lu: "This is a return gift to Jiuyi Yuanwu, please help me transfer it to him." ”

Lu solemnly took it with both hands.

"Okay, I'll deliver it safely. ”

After a while, Lu couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's in it, you won't return the things sent by our Yuanwu, right?"

Ye Xi smiled: "How come?"

In addition to a few pearls of the highest grade produced by the Mussel tribe, there was also a piece of parchment with rain witch patterns and some other precious things. In addition to this, there is a letter.

Seeing that Ye Xi was not going to speak, Lu put away the stone box and said, "Brother Axi, I'm leaving, I know that with your current identity, it is impossible to come to our Jiuyi as a guest again, then brother, I will come to Xicheng a few more times in the future." ”

"But don't let me lose the beast core next time!"

Ye Xi smiled and responded, "Okay." ”

Lu jumped on the back of the umbrella lizard dragon and waved to Ye Xi: "Goodbye!"

Ye Xi: "Take care." ”

Lu led the group of monitor lizards to rumble away on the yellow sand.

Another ten days passed.

Unbeknownst to everyone, the insect tide quietly crawled into the prairie near Xicheng.

They did not enter Xicheng, but settled in the most remote part of the grassland.

There are two main species of insects in this wave. Both of these insects are very small, and the grass here is particularly lush, full of chest-height. So they can hide perfectly in the grass, and even if someone passes by occasionally, it will be difficult to detect their presence.

"Hula!

The cormorant hovered more than ten meters away from the grass, and the wind set off by its wings rolled up the grass whirring, and all the grass fell in all directions with the cormorant as the center.

The wind was so strong, but not a single insect was lifted out of the grass, and it was so quiet that it was almost dead silent.

Ye Xi looked down at the grass and said strangely: "It's not strange that the insects brought by the Chao tribe were not swept out by the wind, and none of the other small flying insects flew out?

He found an open space and carefully jumped down.

Mantis Feather: "Lord Yuanwu!"

The two masters who controlled the insect tide, the eighth-level warriors of the Chao tribe, also respectfully saluted Ye Xi.

Ye Xi looked at the grass beside him.

There was a dark green bug the size of a baby's fist attached to a grass stalk next to him. In addition, there is a small thumb with a large fingernail cover, and some black bugs that resemble ladybugs attached near the roots of the grass.

This was the first time he had seen either bug.

"These are falcons, they are the fastest insects known to fly so far, and they are faster than peregrine falcons when they dive. ”

Ye Xi was slightly surprised.

He knew that ordinary peregrine falcons can dive at speeds of up to 460 kilometers per hour, and when peregrine falcons hunt, ordinary people can't even catch them with the naked eye, and often the prey is pecked to death by the peregrine falcon, and the people next to them don't know how they died.

The peregrine falcon that Mantis Feather is talking about is definitely not an ordinary peregrine falcon, but a fierce bird peregrine falcon, and the speed will be faster.

And how fast are falcons, which are faster than aviar-class peregrine falcons, and how terrifying is it when so many extremely fast falcons attack the enemy?

Ye Xi felt a little afraid.

If the Chao tribe had sent a swarm of falcons to attack him, I'm afraid he would have died by then.

Mantis Feather pointed to the ladybug-like black bug and said, "It's a sleeping bug." ”

"When they enter the grassland, they release very small amounts of toxins, and other small insects around them, as well as the animals in the burrows, are affected by them, and they burrow into the soil and fall asleep, entering a hibernation-like state. ”

"They have become food stored by the sleepworms, and when they are hungry, they burrow into the soil and eat them. ”

Ye Xi: "Then if it is changed to people......

"The same goes!"

Mantis Feather said in a tone that bordered on amazement: "When the sleeping worm releases all its toxins, even a fifth-level warrior will not be able to control his behavior, like the little insects here, lose their minds, dig up the soil under their feet, and then burrow into the soil by themselves, and fall asleep like hibernating bears and snakes." ”

"There are a few powerful sleeping insects, even a sixth-level warrior can't resist them. ”

And this kind of sleep is not harmless, their bodies will slowly begin to turn into corpse water wrapped in skin, so that these small sleeping insects can suck and eat. ”

Ye Xi looked at the inconspicuous little sleeping insect crawling quietly at the roots of the grass with a new look.

Clematodes can control praying mantis to jump into the water on their own, but these sleeping insects can manipulate other creatures to dig their own pits and bury themselves.

But then he was relieved.

Xicheng has these two huge and terrifying insect tides, and it is very safe.
