This time, Mulan Zhi did not take the wind and clouds through the purple bamboo forest, but went directly to the witch's residence through a secret passage.

The outermost end of the secret passage is still a considerable distance away from the Purple Bamboo Forest, but the practice of covering up the opening of the secret passage is also something that Fengyun did not expect, which is very ingenious.

The entrance to the secret passage was hidden inside an ant's nest.

It's not very accurate to say it's an ant's nest, it should be an anthill.

It is three or four stories high, and you can see the traces of wind and rain and erosion of time outside, and it is clear that it has been around for a long time.

The long existence of the anthill does not mean that it has been abandoned by the ant colony, on the contrary, before it gets close, Fengyun sees a lot of ants, coming in and out, an extremely busy scene.

The ants are also very large, each one about the size of a finger.

The whole body is black, and when the sun shines, it actually shines with a metallic luster.

If they lie on the ground and don't move, Fengyun will even mistake them for being made of steel.

However, it was not their size that impressed Fengyun the most, he had seen even larger ants in Snake God Mountain.

What impressed him the most was their teeth, which were not only long, but also very sharp, and very special, like knives.

Mulanzhi told him that the ants were called knife ants, and that their name came from their knife-like teeth.

Not only are their teeth extremely sharp enough to be easily pierced through even the skin of a totem warrior, but they are also poisonous.

Once bitten by it, the wound will be red and swollen. Fester. Burning all over the body. If you don't get timely treatment, your life can even be in danger.

Knife ants also have a strong sense of territory, as long as they invade their territory, whether it is a human or a brute, they will immediately attack.

They are extremely strong and fearless to death, and they will not back down even if the enemies that invade their territory are very strong. Until the enemy is expelled, or killed.

Therefore, few people will take the initiative to provoke these dangerous guys, and when they see their anthills, they will consciously stay away.

For the territorial awareness and toughness of the knife ants, Fengyun has personal feelings.

When he was still about fifty feet away from the anthill, the knife ants that were still crawling normally immediately became agitated and began to touch each other with their tentacles.

In a few moments, they gathered together and pounced on him.

There are a lot of them. The movement speed is also very fast.

In the eyes of the wind and clouds, when they rush over. It's like a flood that has burst its banks, but it's black.

Just as Fengyun couldn't help but grab Magnozhi's arm and drag her away, she reached out and grabbed some fine powder from a bag of animal skins and sprinkled it on their bodies.

Immediately afterwards, a scene that surprised Fengyun extremely appeared.

The army of sword ants, which had been menacing a second ago, immediately quieted down, stopped, and then dispersed, doing what they had to do, just as they had before they found out that their territory had been invaded.

"These are the powders that Wu has deliberately developed to confuse the sword ants into thinking of us as their kind. ”

Without waiting for Fengyun to ask, Mulanozhi explained.

With that, Mulanozhi continued to walk towards the anthill.

Fengyun followed her, but quietly narrowed the distance between him and her.

The medicinal powder was researched by a witch, Fengyun believed in her, and he had seen her medical skills, but he was not afraid of 10,000 just in case.

Fengyun is still worried that something will go wrong.

He was closer to Mulanzhi, and if something really went wrong, he would have to come to the rescue in time.

Fortunately, there was no situation that Fengyun feared.

The two men walked safely to the anthill.

However, Mulanzhi's next move made Fengyun a little nervous.

She actually climbed into it through an opening in the anthill.

Large swarms of knife ants were all around her, and some even climbed on top of her, which was very dangerous.

"Cloud, come in. It's fine. With the witch's powder, they will never bite us. ”

Mulanozhi beckoned to Fengyun and motioned for him to come in quickly.

Seeing that Mulanozhi behaved so calmly, Fengyun no longer hesitated and followed him into the anthill.

After entering, Fengyun found that there was a passage at the bottom of the anthill, which was square and made of stone, but it could be seen from the traces on the surface of the stone that the passage had been built for a long time.

Walking into the passage, Fengyun measured its height.

He raised his hand and stood on tiptoe so that his fingertips could barely touch the top of the passage, quite high.

Although Fengyun's body is not the tallest in the Flame Snake Tribe, it also belongs to the ranks of the middle and upper ranks, plus the length of his arm, he is the tallest person in the Flame Snake Tribe, and he definitely doesn't have to worry about hitting his head when he walks in it.

The passage was clean, and there were no critters like rats, or bugs.

This can't help but make Fengyun feel a little strange.

The passage is connected to the anthill, and there are no other animals, and it is a little difficult to say that there is not even a knife ant to see.

Wu was worried that the sword ants would invade the tribe along the secret passage, so he sprinkled some medicinal powder in the secret passage that could expel the sword ants. These medicinal powders were specially developed by Wu for knife ants. Although they cannot be killed, they will be very painful, and they will never enter the secret passage. ”

Mulanozhi led the way in front of the head while explaining to Fengyun.

The secret passage is long.

According to Fengyun's estimates, it should have been more than fifteen miles long.

Even if the physical fitness of the totem warrior is far from being comparable to that of ordinary people, it is definitely a very difficult thing to dig such a long secret passage and not be able to let others know about it.

Mulanzhi didn't tell Fengyun about the origin of the secret passage.

Fengyun didn't ask either.

Mulanozhi was able to let him know the existence of this secret passage, which was already a great trust in him, and it would not be good to ask him about it.

Came to the end of the passage.

Fengyun found that there were steps that extended upwards, but the height of the steps had far exceeded the height of the secret passage, and entered a existence similar to a shaft.

Mulanzhi led the way in front of the head and climbed the steps, Fengyun followed her.

After walking about thirty steps or so, a wooden plank appeared above Mulanzhi's head, which was larger than the table.

Mulanozhi reached out and lifted the plank and pushed it up.

In the next second, light was streaming through the edge of the plank.

Mulanzhi gently set the plank aside and walked inside.

Fengyun also walked out.

They found themselves in a room with dim light.

Just now he saw the light coming through the edge of the plank, and it felt very bright, but it was actually because it was very dark in the secret passage.

Magnolia put the plank back in place.

The appearance of the planks is very deceptive, and it is almost identical to the other planks on the floor.

It is difficult to see through it if you don't know that there is a secret passage underneath it.

Magnolia didn't stay in the room for long, and after putting the planks away, she walked to the other end of the room.

There are also some steps near the wall.

Reaching the end of the steps, Magnozhi stopped and took out a finger-thick wooden stick less than a foot long from the bag, with some notches on it.

He poked one end of the stick into a small black hole in the wall, and after a few moments, a door appeared on the wall, and with a slight grinding sound, the door opened.

"In the future, we really can't despise the wisdom of primitive people. ”

Seeing Mulanozhi open the door in this strange way, Fengyun immediately realized that the wooden stick should serve the same role as a key.

Obviously, this is a trap, and it should be clever.

With the stinger trap set up by Raven Bai in the stone box that bloomed with the pearl of light, and now the lock-picking trap opened by Magnozhi, Fengyun felt that it was absolutely necessary for him to pay attention to the wisdom of primitive people.

Crossing the portal, Fengyun entered a new room.

With a sweep of his gaze, Fengyun immediately felt an inexplicable familiarity.

He soon realized where that familiarity was coming from.

This room is located on the ground floor of the small building where the witch lived.

When leaving the Baicao Tribe to go to the Flame Snake Tribe, Mulanozhi once opened this room to get something, he stood at the door and glanced outside and inside.

After closing the secret door and moving some things to cover up, the two walked out of the room.

It was quiet outside the door, and there was no one around.

Fengyun didn't know if it was people who had something to do, or if the witch had deliberately pushed people away, but he didn't ask.

The two of them followed the stairs to the second floor.

As soon as he pushed the door open, Fengyun made contact with the witch's gaze.

Fengyun immediately understood that she should be waiting for him on purpose.

After meeting, the witch was not polite and asked Fengyun directly about the situation.

Fengyun didn't hesitate to tell the witch about the situation, but he didn't tell the witch everything.

For example, he didn't say anything about getting the pearl of light and the treasure sword.

Even so, the witch nodded frequently, apparently pleased with his performance.

As for Mulanozhi, who was sitting on the side, her eyes were shining, and her gaze at Fengyun was full of impulse to explore, like a child discovering a very novel toy.

Fengyun said it relatively briefly, but just because he could kill three high-level totem warriors, he had a powerful shock to Mulanzhi.

In her memory, the high-level totem warriors were very powerful beings, almost invincible, let alone killed.

For as long as she can remember, she has not heard of a few high-level totem warriors dying, and Fengyun killed three at once.

If it weren't for the fact that she trusted Fengyun very much and thought that he wouldn't talk about it, she would definitely not believe it.

"Yun, in the recent past, I need to entertain those reinforcements from various tribes, and I will be very busy and unable to teach you medical skills, but don't worry, I will never break my word. ”

The witch smiled apologetically.

"Well, so be it. You follow Laneige first, let her teach you something, and when I have time, I will teach you myself. ”

The witch beckoned to Magnolia and motioned for her to arrange for him. (To be continued.) )
