In the afternoon, Lin Ye trotted all the way to the swamp.

"The swampy area is currently classified as a D hazard and is suitable for habitation. Listening to the prompts of the system, Lin Ye's heart was happy. After killing the dragon, this is his second stronghold, and as soon as the sweet millet is ripe, he can plant it here with the sweet millet seeds.

The daily rounds were completed, and there was no danger except for a few centipedes lurking in the distance.

The rice seedlings he planted by the pond in the dense forest area are now growing well, and although only a few days have passed, the rice seedlings have grown to the size of a forest night. Rice is a self-pollinating crop, so even just one can reproduce itself and produce seeds.

Plant a seed today, and in a few months, you will be able to harvest a large field of seeds!

Lin Ye's heart thought happily as he walked through the dense fern bushes.

Sticky bubbles continued to emerge from the swamp, bursting with a thick stench, and Lin Ye smelled a little bit and immediately gagged. The joy in his heart was suddenly swept away. How can such a foul-smelling environment be a new home?

Precipitation is the main source of water in swamps. It not only feeds the swamp directly, but also often indirectly through surface water and diving, and evaporation is the main mode of excretion of the swamp.

After that rainstorm, the water level in the swamp was much higher than before, and even swallowed up the small gravel where Lin Ye had stepped on his way to the central rock.

The originally foul-smelling swamp even overflowed to the fern bushes on the shore, and Lin Ye walked with a big grin. There was a sudden chill under his feet, and he immediately retracted his feet in fright, and looked down to see that the swamp had already filled the area, and he almost stepped into it.

If it had been before, Lin Ye would have stepped directly into the swamp with a click. However, Lin Ye has a long memory, the first time he fell into the cordyceps field, and the second time he almost fell into the underground cave. This is only three things, and Lin Ye will not make the same mistake if he says anything.

Having said that, Lin Ye was also shocked by the pimples of bird skin. He found that this body seemed to be quite easily frightened, could this be the quality of birds? Neurotic? Lin Ye shook his head and threw away this thought.

Jumping out of the dense fern leaf bushes, Lin Ye looked at this thick green swamp and felt worried.

In this case, people can't live at all, no, it's birds.

He remembered the pool he had inadvertently dug in a dense forest area, and suddenly came up with an idea.

Now that a pond can be dug, is it possible to transform the swamp to make it more inhabitable?

Lin Ye was moved by this idea of his own at that time. There's nothing to do today anyway, so let's look around the swamp first.

Just do it!

Lin Ye once again ran around the swamp, which had been nearly half-expanded, and he took a fern leaf that could be used as a boat, spread it on the surface of the swamp, and then used his paws to pluck the water, and little by little he headed towards the center of the swamp. He wondered why the land was deposited with so much water.

The viscous swamp was somewhat diluted by the torrential rain, and a large amount of methane gas was exhaled down the surface of the water, forming tiny bubbles.

There were a lot of wriggling insects in the water, the largest of which was the size of half of Lin Ye's body. They swim underwater, their bodies bent and stretched.

Lin Ye's discerning eye gained enhanced underwater vision after being upgraded to D+ level, he stood on the fern leaf on the water surface, poked his head out and looked at the bottom of the water, and the insects under the water were immediately seen clearly by Lin Ye.

Its body is like standing upside down in water, with its tail sticking out of the water and a hollow straw that seems to breathe air. The drooping head sways from side to side, and the bristles on both sides of the mouth constantly stir the water, sending algae and food into the mouth.

The voice of the system echoed in Lin Ye's mind: "孑 [jié] 孓 [jué] is the larva of mosquitoes. It is hatched by mosquito eggs in water, and has a slender body, a wide chest compared to the head or abdomen, and a bent and stretched body when swimming. It has a slender, dark brown body and swims vertically up and down in the water, feeding on bacteria and single-celled algae in the water and breathing air. ”

Lin Ye suddenly felt a chill, he remembered those ancient mosquitoes in the cordyceps land, but he didn't expect to come to the swamp to lay eggs and hatch larvae.

Raising his head and looking at the water from afar, these sundries were densely packed in the very center of the swamp, a large area of black and long, with tails protruding from the water, like a spike growing out of the water, turning the surface of the water into a spike plate.

There are thousands of them!

With a shrunk of his eyes, Lin Ye screamed, and a coercion came from his body. The nearby's head swayed, and it immediately descended into the water, but soon resurfaced. They were afraid of Lin Ye's coercion, but that wasn't enough. big

Generally, the larval growth cycle of mosquitoes is 10 to 14 days, while the larvae of ancient mosquitoes are delayed to one month due to their large size. But in the swamps, many of them have grown to half the size of ancient mosquitoes, their tails writhing, and some of them have formed pupae, hanging upside down on the water, and soon hatching adults.

I was just looking to see why the swamp was filled with water, but I found such a terrifying scene.

If all these children hatch out, it will probably be a disaster for the swamp area. Once thousands of blood-sucking mosquitoes with mouthparts the size of needles hatched, Lin Ye would never dare to come here, and this place would become a paradise for ancient mosquitoes.

In order to defend the territory, and for the sake of safety, they must be dealt with as soon as possible!

Standing on the fern leaf boat, Lin Ye's wings flicked, and a flame smashed on the water, extinguishing in an instant. It didn't even move, and in its senses, it seemed as if nothing had happened just now.

Lin Ye can't swim, his feather coat of flame is not compatible with water, and if he falls to the bottom, Lin Ye will become bait. He eagerly circled around the floating fern boat, thinking of a solution.

By the way, isn't there an underground cave down there?

Lin Ye's inspiration moved, and he suddenly remembered what he had experienced the day before yesterday, and directly below the swampy area was a karst cave.

Lin Ye rowed back to the shore, jumped out of the boat and ran along the swamp in the direction of Qingquan, where there was a shortcut to the underground cave.

Peeling aside the fern leaves, I found the eyeless lizard soaking in the spring water, where it basks in the sun.

Seeing Lin Ye, the lizard Zila spat out the letter, and the tail wagged slightly, like Lin Ye expressing friendship. But Lin Ye didn't have the heart to greet the lizard, he immediately jumped into the underground waterway next to him, and then followed the way back little by little.

This is on the west side of the swamp, so Lin Ye has to go back, and after walking almost fifty meters away, Lin Ye raised his head and estimated that there was the swamp above his head. He smelled a foul smell three meters in front of him, a crack in the rock wall at the top, which was slowly seeping water downward, and occasionally a few children fell from above, and then were washed away by the groundwater.

Lin Ye could see clearly in the darkness, thinking that it was no wonder that he smelled a foul smell in the same place that day, but now with the help of the discerning eye, he immediately understood the reason.
