Chapter 146: The Green Mantis

The grass was full of stagnant water.

Stepping on the ground, the water just ran up to his ankles.

All around is green, everywhere is this hard and sharp knife grass, not even a single other kind of plant, dense knife grass occupies all this land, its domineering can be seen.

Ye Xi and Mink took turns to open the way in front, and used bone knives to cut off the dense clusters of knife grass.

Jiaojiao slowly crawled behind them.

Ka!

This knife grass is really hard, and the bone knife slashing on it actually makes a sound of hardwood being chopped down.

Ye Xi went down with this knife and directly cut off three sword grasses.

The broken stubble was toppled to the side like a fallen sugar cane, leaving three waist-high stubbles still standing firmly on the ground.

These sharp stubbles are like broken blades, if someone falls on them and accidentally falls on them, they may be directly stabbed through the stomach.

The two of them slowly advanced in the grass and grass.

Because the knife grass bushes are surrounded by tall and dense sword grass, which completely obscures their view, they cannot see the snow-capped mountains, and can only discern the direction according to the shadows cast by the sun on their bodies and the puddles.

I walked like this for almost an hour, and there was still endless green around me.

I don't know how big this knife grass is, and how far I have to go to get out.

"Hopefully we'll be able to get out there before the sun goes down. Ye Xi thought helplessly, and began to feel that it seemed to be a mistake to enter this grass.

Ka!

Ye Xi waved the bone knife and split the knife grass.

There was silence in the knife grass, only the sound of bone knives slashing on the knife grass.

The two had already taken two shifts, and now it was Ye Xi's turn to open the way, and Mink followed behind Ye Xi with a large package on his back.

There were a few more bloody cuts on the back of Ye Xi's hand holding the bone knife, although the two of them were careful enough, but this knife grass was too sharp, it was like walking in a knife forest, and if you didn't pay attention, you would draw a bloody mark.

Suddenly, Ye Xi heard some extremely subtle movements behind him.

But when he looked back, he found nothing.

Seeing Ye Xi looking back, Mink asked casually, "What's wrong?"

Ye Xi frowned suspiciously: "Did you hear any sounds?"

"No, I don't. The mink also looked back, and there was still the familiar green behind him, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Ye Xi turned his head back and continued to step on the stagnant water with a bone knife machete, but this time because he had doubts, although he was machete grass in his hand, his mind was paying attention to the movement behind him.

The sound of machetes and grass with clicks, clicks, clicks.

The sound of crunching knife grass falling down.

The sound of two people stepping on the water.

The faint sound of the Jiaojiao swimming.

And also...... The small sound of treading water.

Wrong!

Ye Xi turned his head suddenly!

I saw that behind them were densely packed, and there were knee-high green praying mantis everywhere!

When these praying mantis saw that they had been discovered, they no longer sneaked into the water to follow them, and they immediately pounced on them as soon as they fluttered their wings. When their sickle-like forelimbs slashed through the knife grass, the hard grass knife was actually cut off!

"Mink!" Ye Xi shouted.

The mink turned back suddenly, and was taken aback when he saw so many praying mantises, and hurriedly pulled out his bone knife to meet the enemy.

The overwhelming praying mantis pounced, Ye Xi and Mink were back to back, wielding bone knives and slashing mercilessly.

One by one, the praying mantis were cut down at the waist, and the ground was full of mantis corpses.

At this time, I saw that Jiaojiao suddenly launched a madness, and the huge python tail slammed into the ground, splashing and splashing with wet mud.

It turned out that these green praying mantis were still attacking Jiaojiao, and hundreds of praying mantis pounced on Jiaojiao, and the black python body looked like green mildew at a glance.

These praying mantis's forelimbs are abnormally sharp, and they can cut through the scales of the Jiaojiao and bring harm to the Jiaojiao.

Jiaojiao was angry, the huge python body rolled up, and the surrounding knife grass was crushed and fell down.

There were more and more praying mantis coming from behind, and the two of them were gradually surrounded.

Ye Xi and Mink's two bone knives couldn't cut down all of so many mantises, and the scars gradually added to their bodies.

Ye Xi frowned in his heart, thought of the insect repellent powder, and said to the mink: "You hold on for a while." ”

The mink nodded, the bone knife whirred, and cut down the mantis that was about to pounce on Ye Xi, but he didn't care that a few praying mantis were about to bite him.

Ye Xi took out a large flint from the animal skin bag he was carrying, two gloves, and rubbed the flint extremely quickly after putting on the gloves.

The fist-sized flint suddenly burned into a large ball of fire.

Ye Xi held the fireball with one hand, and quickly reached into the animal skin bag with one hand to find a packet of insect repellent powder, bit open the wrapped leaf with his mouth, and poured all the insect repellent powder inside into the fireball.

Snort.

A puff of green smoke suddenly rose from the fireball.

A special smell of plants and trees permeated.

The praying mantis flying in the air around suddenly froze, and suddenly fled as if they had to fly out, and the few praying mantis that originally bit the mink didn't even care about the meat in their mouths, and fled out one after another.

Ye Xi saw that it was useful, and quickly took out another packet of insect repellent powder and sprinkled the powder on the fireball.

This insect repellent powder is made from a type of insect repellent herb, and the first time I watched the warriors use it during a big hunt. He thought it was very useful, so he improved it and dried it and ground it into powder, which was easier to carry and more effective when sprinkled on fire.

After this insect repellent powder is burned, it is very effective to drive away some small insects, but he is not very sure about this praying mantis Ye Xi, and Ye Xi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it take effect.

"Follow me!" Ye Xi said.

Seeing that the mink was coming up, Ye Xi held the fireball and brought the fireball with the smell of insect repellent powder close to Jiaojiao's body.

The praying mantis that was ferociously gnawing on Jiaojiao's body flew away.

Jiaojiao immediately moved to Ye Xi's side and coiled the long python body.

The fireball that exuded the smell of insect repellent powder made the praying mantis dare not approach, within two meters in diameter, no praying mantis approached, but two meters away, more and more praying mantis stepped on the water and walked over, staring at them coldly with yellow compound eyes.

Ye Xi had to keep pouring insect repellent powder into the fireball, holding the fireball to drive away the mantis, and then let the mink use the bone knife to cut the grass in front of him to open the way.

It's a pity that although the effect of this insect repellent powder is good, the effect is not long, and the taste is gone in less than half a minute.

It didn't take long for the insect repellent powder in Ye Xi's animal skin bag to be announced: "The insect repellent powder on my side is gone, how many do you still have?"

Mink stopped and looked at the package: "I have ten more packs here." ”

Ye Xi frowned.

Ten packs, that's five minutes.

Looking back, those haunting praying mantis are still following closely, and even more and more, like a green tide to drown them.

In fact, the speed of Jiaojiao is much faster than them, and if they ride Jiaojiao away, they should not be able to catch up.

But the problem is that this knife grass is too hard and sharp, if you move forward quickly, they on their backs, the flesh may also be cut off by these knife grass.

So, what should they do?
