Chapter 175: Salt Frost
In the surprised eyes of the Zixia Fairy and the wine man, I saw Ge Wei soar into the air and fly into the sea of clouds.
Not long after, when Ge Wei came back, he already had a few more black crabs in his hands.
"Hey, what are you doing with them?" Fairy Zixia couldn't help but ask. The ones that Ge Wei caught were the Cloud Swallowing Crabs.
"Mountain people have their own uses. Ge Wei smiled slightly, didn't explain, took out an empty spirit beast bag casually, and put a few cloud-swallowing crabs in his hand.
Then, under the even more puzzled gazes of the Zixia Fairy and the Wine Dao Man, Ge Wei took out a handful of powder from the Na Ring and injected it into the spirit beast bag.
Fairy Zixia didn't ask again this time. She knew that Ge Wei would not tell her.
She was just a little strange, thinking that Ge Wei was curious about the small animal like the Cloud Swallowing Crab, and wanted to catch a few to see.
In fact, the Cloud Swallowing Crab was researched on Spirit Beast Island a hundred years ago, and they basically determined that this small animal could only be regarded as a spirit species and had no use value. So simply ignore it.
It is estimated that only those mortal inhabitants of the coast will occasionally catch this kind of crab to open the taste.
That's all.
The wine Taoist glanced at Ge Wei's spirit beast bag twice, then stopped looking at it, and focused on sipping the wine.
Ge Wei sat cross-legged, his divine consciousness remained in the spirit beast bag, and he was always observing the condition of the few cloud-swallowing crabs inside.
"Very well, the crabs have already eaten the feed, and then they waited. Ge Wei noticed the situation in the spirit beast bag and thought to himself.
After about ten minutes, Ge Wei's divine sense found that the spirit beast bag began to change.
I saw that these cloud swallowing crabs quickly began to twitch, and the eight legs of the two pincers were as if they were electrocuted, trembling violently. This didn't last long, only a few dozen seconds. Subsequently, a few cloud-swallowing crabs stabilized.
At this time, Ge Wei began to find out. The surface of the carapace of several cloud-swallowing crabs gradually condensed a layer of hoarfrost.
At the same time, the Swallowing Cloud Crab itself seems to have become less fond of activities and has become quieter and quieter.
Initially. Ge Wei just thought it was some kind of normal reaction from them, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
But later, as the hoarfrost on the carapace of several cloud-swallowing crabs became more and more knotted, and in the end, a thick outer layer of carapace was formed on the surface of the body, and Ge Wei realized that something was abnormal.
"Could it be that this is the performance of the Cloud Swallowing Crab after its mutation?" Ge Wei thought for a moment, and then took out a Cloud Swallowing Crab from the spirit beast bag.
"Huh?"
Fairy Zixia has been paying attention to Ge Wei all the time, and saw the cloud-swallowing crab in Ge Wei's hand. I couldn't help but sigh in surprise.
The wine man was attracted to attention, and when he saw the appearance of this cloud-swallowing crab, he also sighed.
"Why did this Cloud Swallowing Crab become so weird?" muttered the drinker.
"Could it be that this guy knows some kind of purpose for the Cloud Swallowing Crab? Looking at his appearance, it was also the first time he had come into contact with the Cloud Swallowing Crab. Fairy Zixia thought to herself, and glanced at the wine man.
Both saw the surprise and confusion in each other's eyes.
If you want to say that this Shushan Continent, for the understanding and use of spirit beasts, I am afraid that even the famous Shushan faction is not as good as their spirit beast island.
After all, there is a specialization in the art industry. Their Spirit Beast Island started with a full-time breeding of spirit beasts. It is famous for its beast control technique. To say that there is anyone in this world whose ability to raise spirit beasts is more superb than their spirit beast island, the wine Taoist and the Zixia fairy will never believe it.
Ge Wei didn't notice the gaze of the two, and took out the cloud-swallowing crab, and Ge Wei wanted to try to break off a piece of frost armor from the cloud-swallowing crab's carapace. As a result, a whole piece of salt-frosted carapace was easily peeled off.
Shedding the outer layer of the salt-frosted carapace, the cloud-swallowing crab returned to its original state and began to move again.
He took a closer look at the cloud-swallowing crab. Ge Wei didn't notice any difference from before. It seems that the main problem lies in the inexplicable condensation of salt frost.
So, Ge Wei began to study the piece of salt frost that had been peeled off the cloud-swallowing crab.
"Hard, crispy, average toughness. Hey. This feeling, this ...... How is this possible? Is this be!?"
Ge Wei almost exclaimed.
Ge Dawei's eyes widened, his eyes full of disbelief. He was stunned to realize the salt frost in his hand, but he was actually carefully understanding the mystery.
"Yes, absolutely, absolutely!"
Ge Wei almost jumped up with excitement for a moment, and his face could no longer hide the excitement.
His performance made a Zixia fairy and a wine Taoist who were secretly paying attention to him both surprised and curious. They all saw the piece of salt frost, and now they couldn't help but think to themselves, could it be some kind of good thing, that it was worthy of his pleasure?
After a while, Ge Wei finally held back his excitement, and thought about one thing at the same time, so he hurriedly asked Zixia Fairy: "Miss Zixia, you said before that the wonders of the sea of clouds only appear at this time of year, does that mean that the cloud swallowing crab only exists at this time of year? Just like some kind of seasonal animal, it only comes out at a certain time every year?"
Fairy Zixia said in surprise: "Hey, yes, you understand the nature of spirit beasts very well. That's right, the Swallow Crab only appears two days before the equinox and two days after the equinox every year. The exact timing is uncertain. and only for a maximum of two hours at a time. Since you understand the nature of spirit beasts, you should know that in fact, most spirit species are like this. It's just that the time of the cloud-swallowing crab is particularly short. ”
Ge Wei smiled slightly, this kind of thing, everyone on the earth knows. This is the same as eating lobster in spring and summer, and crab in autumn and winter. Most marine life breeds seasonally, only appearing in large numbers on certain days of the season, and usually hiding in unknown places.
After receiving a positive answer, Ge Wei's nerves immediately tensed.
Now he was able to determine that after the Cloud Swallowing Crab mutated, it produced that thing. This is the only time this is the only time to infest, and it must be caught as soon as possible.
Otherwise, as soon as the breeding period of the cloud-swallowing crab is over and the sea of clouds disappears, it will really have to wait for next year.
"You two, I have a reluctant request. Hope you two can help me. There will be a lot of thanks afterwards. Ge Wei said to the two seriously.
"How can you help?" asked Fairy Zixia.
"Daoyou also said that the old man will definitely help him if he can do it. The bartender burped in satisfaction.
"I hope you two can help me catch the cloud-swallowing crab. Ge Wei's eyes shone with greed, and he said: "Fish as much as you can, as much as you can." It's best to catch all the cloud-swallowing crabs here!"
Fairy Zixia and the wine Taoist glanced at each other, and they were both sure in their hearts that this Ge Wei must have discovered some kind of cloud swallowing crab magic that they had not found on Spirit Beast Island. Otherwise, there would never be such a big fight.
But since Ge Wei refused to say, the two of them didn't ask much. The wine Taoist put away the Moutai bottle, flipped over his hand and took out a token, stood up and said, "Since Daoist friends have spoken, it is not too late." The sea of clouds will not exceed two hours at most every year, and you need to start fishing for cloud-swallowing crabs immediately. This order is the 'Beast God Order' of my Spirit Beast Island, and all mortal countries under the rule of my Spirit Beast Island need to obey my orders. I'm going to look around and get some fishermen. ”
"That's great, without further ado, I'll ask you to drink friends. After the deed is completed, I will bring you a box of Moutai next time. Ge Wei said happily. As long as he succeeds in catching a large number of cloud-swallowing crabs, the "energy crisis" he is currently facing will be completely resolved.
The kind of salt frost block condensed by the mutation of the Cloud Swallowing Crab was not salt frost at all, but a spiritual energy crystal. In other words, it's a spirit stone!
