Chapter 8: The Giant Eel
After falling into the water, Li Yiheng struggled to get up, and only saw clearly through the fairly clear water surface that this ripple was swimming by a group of fish similar to electric eels with a ruler length and arm thickness, and it should have sensed the current stirred by thunder and lightning in the air to become so active, but the next moment, Li Yiheng was in trouble, this group of electric eels seemed to have not eaten for a long time, and pounced on Li Yiheng viciously, and one even crossed the water, directly opened a strange mouth full of triangular fangs, and bit Li Yiheng's face.
Li Yiheng grabbed the head of the electric eel with his right hand, and the electric eel's writhing body was wrapped around Li Yiheng's arm, and its ugly mouth made a sticky sound, which was more like a loach; the water was not deep enough to reach the root of Li Yiheng's thighs, and a group of electric eels under the water were tearing Li Yiheng's legs, and the tail that was swinging because of the hard tearing made a splash on the water surface.
This pain is nothing to Li Yiheng, and immediately his right arm was submerged in the water, the umbrella shield exploded, and began to rotate extremely fast, as if he was stirring in the water with a chainsaw, and the sharp umbrella blade cut off the electric eels that were besieging one after another, and the water surface was soon flooded with bursts of blood and broken electric eel corpses.
Xiao Ji rushed to the top of Li Yiheng's head at this time, and his powerful claws were about to grab Li Yiheng from the water, and a giant electric eel nearly five meters long and about the same thickness as Li Yiheng's waist popped out from the bottom of the water, covered with leopard spots, glowing with dark yellow to black color, opening a bloody mouth that could swallow Li Yiheng whole, and hit Li Yiheng's head directly, accompanied by "thorns" The head of the giant electric eel was cut off by the umbrella blade when it was an arm's length away from Li Yiheng, and although the head flew away from the direction, the body of the giant eel still crashed into Li Yiheng and entangled him tightly, and Xiao Ji also grabbed Li Yiheng's shoulder at this time and dragged him away from the water.
The body of the giant eel became tighter and tighter, Li Yiheng's arms were also entangled, he couldn't use the umbrella blade, his breathing became short, and what was more troublesome was that although the giant eel had no head, his body still continued to produce high-voltage bioelectricity. ”
Diana, who was on her back, said excitedly: "It's just right, there is eel rice to eat here." After speaking, he laughed with Rainbow.
Li Yiheng was really helpless at the moment, he was entangled in such a slimy, cold giant eel corpse, and was electrocuted twice from time to time, these two people actually laughed out loud, discussing making eel rice, Li Yiheng looked at the neck of the eel that was still bleeding, but he was disgusted.
Xiao Ji is quite serious, the claws are insulated by the high-voltage biological current released from the eel's body, while flying, he frees up a claw to tear the body of the giant eel, but the body of the giant eel is too tightly wound, and it has no effect for a long time, and every time Xiao Ji pulls, Li Yiheng is electrified, and then Li Yiheng's whole body feels powerless.
Diana also felt that the joke had been going on for too long, so she let Xiao Ji stop on a protruding rock in front of her, and let go of Li Yiheng, who had no strength to speak, the blood of the giant eel had stained Li Yiheng's shirt red, and it was still oozing, Xiao Ji's sharp beak pulled the tail of the giant eel, and a claw helped fix Li Yiheng, but it still had no effect, and the giant eel was still putting a little, although this did no harm to Xiao Ji.
"That's the only way," Rainbow said, "and put a horizontal and giant eel together on the volcano to roast, and the giant eel's body fluids will be roasted dry, and it will no longer generate electricity, and it will slowly loosen." ”
Just do it, put it down and run to the mountains and forests not far away to pick up dry branches, the feathers on the top of Xiao Ding's head are an electric shock to the pile of branches, the branches are burning, Xiao Diana's palm sends out two spore filaments, respectively wrapped around Li Yiheng's feet and the tail of the giant eel at the head of Li Yiheng, and easily hung Li Yiheng on the fire and roasted it, Li Yiheng said weakly: "This trick is best useful, otherwise I will be roasted together." ”
"Save electricity, the giant eel will entangle you so tightly that it won't burn you. Diana said with a force in her palm, turning Li Yi sideways.
Rainbow continued to add firewood, the fire burned more and more, it really had an effect, and when the giant eel began to exude the smell of meat, it suddenly let go, fortunately, Diana hung Li Yiheng, so as not to roll into the fire, Li Yiheng lay on the ground and breathed a long sigh of relief, took off his blood-stained coat, dried his clothes by the fire, looked at the steaming giant eel corpse, and his stomach was filled with nausea.
The rest of the people also gathered around the fire, looking at the fragrant giant eel and didn't dare to move their mouths, Li Yiheng simply grabbed it and threw it down the mountain, Diana said: "What are you doing, it can still eat." ”
"If you could eat it, you would have eaten it a long time ago, I saw some skeletons under the water, I think it grew up eating human flesh, do you still eat it?" Li Yiheng knew that Diana and they also had this suspicion, so he didn't dare to move his mouth.
"Okay, okay, we have a lot of beef and mutton jerky, and it's just as delicious as roasting it on the fire. Rainbow opened the luggage package, took out a large bag of jerky and spread it in front of everyone, the three of them skewered the jerky to replenish their energy, and Xiao Ji also changed back to the size of a palm to save physical strength.
Li Yi looked sideways in the direction of Lightning City, estimating that there was still half the distance, at this time the sky was still dark, and now looking around on the mountain rocks, the swamps under the mountains, and the mountains in the distance, all showed an incomparably heavy feeling, giving people the feeling of desolation and mystery.
"Have you been to Lightning City?" asked Diana Rainbow.
"Never, I only heard the elders and the city lord talk about it. Rainbow replied firmly, with longing.
Li Yiheng suddenly interjected: "That stone bear seems to like you very much, why don't you ignore others? ”
"You want to take care of it?!" Diana responded sharply to Li Yiheng when she heard this.
Rainbow didn't mind, poked the fire, a few sparks were driven by the heat to float up, and then dimmed and disappeared, and said quietly: "My family is the same as Shi Xiong's family, born with the ability to receive thunder and lightning, and it is precisely because of this ability that we have been selected as the deputy general to defend the city for generations, and our lifespan is shorter than that of normal people, which is also the price of having this ability, so I have been bullied by other children since I was a child, and it is Shi Xiong who has always protected me", Rainbow said, tears flashed in his eyes, and he began to sob" I've always wanted to show that I'm strong, so sometimes I refuse Shi Xiong's help, and I can't think of it now......"
Rainbow buried her head and cried, Diana stroked Rainbow's back, leaned on Rainbow's head, Rainbow turned around and hugged Diana, who had become a tearful person.
"Don't be sad, we will definitely save him!" Li Yiheng hurriedly comforted Tianhong, who touched her tears and nodded in conviction.
The four of them rested for a while, especially Xiao Ji needed more energy, so he also ate more than Li Yiheng, his stomach was bulging, Li Yiheng looked around again, this swamp is really wide, there is no sign of the end, but with the speed of Xiao Ji flapping his wings for thousands of miles, it is not difficult to pass through here, but now the closer he is to Lightning City, the worse the weather becomes, and a slight spicy smell begins to fill the air, this smell is not emitted from the swamp, but more like the smell of lightning breaking through the air.
The three of them jumped on Xiao Ji's back again, this time Li Yiheng wrapped the cloth rope hanging the luggage around his waist and tied it with the luggage, in case Xiao Ji made another sudden big move, Li Yiheng didn't want to see the ugly head and slimy body of the giant eel again.
After about half an hour, the group flew over the marshland and came to the rather desolate plain, saying that it was desolate because all the trees on the plain had no branches and leaves, and the turf on the ground was all charred yellow, as if a layer of brass wire had grown on the ground, intertwined together, and when looking around, you could see patches of burnt black, which was very abrupt.
"There should be a lot of lightning strikes here, that is, minefields, so be careful. Rainbow reminded the rest of the group after observing the ground for a while.
The trunks of the dead trees in the minefield stretch in different postures, but there is a rule, all the dry trunks are more dense in the direction of Lightning City without exception, forming a one-sided trend, the wind and magnetic field will change the direction of the growth of the trees for many years, but there is no trace of wind here, and even the mountains around it are scorched black, as if this place has just gone through a catastrophe, and now only a tragic turbidity is left.
