Chapter 26: The Mist
"Negotiating? Hearing that the other party offered to negotiate, Feng Bo said with a smile, "Say, how are you going to compensate us, see that you beat Wei Heng, and now you can't stand up, it's almost ripe." And Qi Xue, such a beautiful girl, you also go to the hand, look, see if you can't lift your hand now, in order to show your sincerity, why do you have to heal other people's hands first. ”
"If you say that, it's still your fault, this road is the first to come first, we have to talk about a first come, first come, first come, you are like this, indiscriminately come up and fight, how is it different from a robber?" the other party's formation master asked without giving in.
"It's the first time I've heard the 'sickle' say that someone else is a robber, and you don't look in the mirror first to see what kind of person you are, and it's not too late to say something that makes people laugh without thinking. Han Fang's little beauty retorted without showing weakness, and made a grimace at the other party after speaking.
"Now that we know that we belong to the 'Scythe' and are so arrogant, it seems that we should invite you to sit down with us, and give you a good reception, so that you can know our hospitality. The other party's martial artist said in a hoarse tone, making people feel like a gust of wind blowing.
"Do you think that our Rose Manor is still bullying, invite us to tea? You don't seem to be qualified enough, be careful that Senior Sister Li dismantles your 'sickle' headquarters. Qi Xue sneered.
As if remembering something, the leader of the other party looked at Qi Xue seriously, and reluctantly asked, "Senior Sister Li will take care of such a trivial matter?"
"It may not be a trivial matter, but the person who injured her cousin should always be asked. After speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Han Fang, obviously meaning something.
And Han Fang snorted as if showing off when he saw the leader of the other party looking at him.
The leader of the other party retracted his gaze and pondered, obviously analyzing the truth of the other party's words, and he couldn't make a choice for a while.
"Hey, it seems that you are saying that you want to negotiate now, and now it seems that we are begging you to negotiate, whether you still want to talk or not, give a quasi-word, don't waste everyone's time, if you can't talk, you will fight, anyway, there is only one and a half left on your side, and it will be a matter of minutes to solve you. Feng Bo looked at the other party and stopped talking, and was dissatisfied.
"Okay, we'll help you heal your wounds and help you deal with the silkworms, but you have to make sure that you don't cross the river and tear down the bridge, and then we can explore the front together, so we can take care of it. Otherwise, if you really fight each other here, no one will get any benefit, and you can only run in vain. After some thought, the leader finally spoke.
"We don't have an opinion either. Zhou Lingwei finally stood up at this time, but obviously he had not fully recovered, because at this time, he couldn't even stand steadily, swaying left and right, and could fall down at any time.
"Okay, but as you can see, our doctor is also seriously injured at this time, and it is impossible to heal everyone now, so she can only heal her hands first, so the others will have to wait a while. ”
"Good. After Zhou Lingwei finished speaking, he staggered to the side to recover, and Han Fang also helped Qi Xue, who was still a little paralyzed in his hands, to the side to rest. And Feng Bo had no choice but to help Wei Heng up, drag him aside, fiddle with him for a long time, and did not take off the set of steel armor, after getting that the other party didn't need to care about him, he had to put it aside and sit aside alone.
Finally, the two sides fell into tranquility again, recuperating in peace.
"Why is it so quiet. The bored turmoil suddenly muttered.
Hearing the reminder of the turmoil, everyone was shocked, and after glancing at each other, they all rushed in the direction of the silkworm.
However, after arriving, there was no figure of the silkworm, but the road ahead had been dug through, but there was no situation inside, but a foggy patch, and nothing could be seen.
"Wei Heng. Zhou Lingwei suddenly shouted.
And the leader of the "Scythe" also looked at his own pilot.
I saw that the two of them each released a small mechanical bug and flew into the fog.
"There are no living creatures, but the fog is very thick, the visibility is less than five meters, and it should not blow away. After observing for a while, Wei Heng came to a preliminary conclusion.
Hearing Wei Heng's analysis, the other pilot nodded in agreement.
"So what now, whether to go in or go back. Seeing this situation, Feng Bo looked helplessly at the leaders on both sides.
"Enter. The leader of the other party saw that Zhou Lingwei did not say anything, looked at the fog in front of him, and squeezed out a word from his mouth.
With the decision of the leader of the other party, I saw that the opponent's pilot released dozens of small mechanical bugs and flew into the fog, and after making sure that they were not attacked, the other five walked into the fog together.
"What about us?" Feng Bo looked at Zhou Lingwei.
"How's the injury? After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Lingwei asked Wei Heng and Qi Xue.
"I'm fine. Qi Xue said flatly.
"I'm still having a little problem, but my armor has a healing system, so I can recover gradually, so I won't have a problem fighting. ”
"Okay. Then let's go and see what's inside. Let's go. ”
Subsequently, a group of five people also stepped into the fog. Along the way, there was no attack, but there were many forks in the road, although there were marks at every intersection, but, as we advanced, there were more and more forks, and the atmosphere of the team became more and more solemn, as if there was a mountain pressing on everyone's chest, and with each step, the pressure became more and more intense.
"What's the sound?" Wei Heng suddenly stopped and said to everyone.
"Is there a sound? Why didn't I hear it. Feng Bo looked puzzled and listened attentively, but found nothing.
"I didn't hear it either. Han Fang also replied in confusion.
"Let's go. Zhou Lingwei suddenly shouted, "It's the fire wave ant." ”
So, everyone ran wildly together, and the storm finally remembered one of the ten horrors of the underground world, the fire wave ant, which is a kind of social creature in the underground world, every once in a while, will come out in groups to forage for food, because of the large number, when it advances, like the waves, blocking the entire passage, and this kind of ant itself has high temperature, when gathered together, it is like a fire wave, hence the name fire wave ant.
When encountering fire wave ants, the only option is to run and leave their foraging path, because every time they forage, they will take the path explored by the fire wave ants who have explored the path before, and as long as they leave their foraging path, they will not be attacked. Therefore, the best place to hide from fire wave ants is where there are many forks in the road.
However, it is strange to say that the passage that was full of forks in the road just now did not even see a fork in the road, and everyone could only run along this road.
"Hold on, don't stop, don't attack. Zhou Lingwei shouted as he ran. Because fire wave ants rely on their sense of smell to hunt, once they remember the smell, they will definitely not die.
However, as time went by, they still didn't see the fork in the road, and they didn't know how long the road was, so everyone could only run along the road, and the fire wave ants were just chasing after them, and everyone seemed to be able to feel the heat wave behind them, so they could only keep accelerating.
"Quick, there's a fork in the road ahead, everyone go to the left. After Zhou Lingwei finished speaking, he rushed to the fork in the road on the left, but did not stop, but continued to run wildly, because it was not yet certain that he had gotten rid of the fire wave ants, and after running out for a few hundred meters, he finally determined that the fire wave ants did not follow, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and all sat on the ground without any image, even the two girls were no exception, because they were too tired.
"What about Wei Heng?" looked left and right and found that Wei Heng was not here.
After the turmoil, everyone found out that Wei Heng was gone.
"What's the matter, when did Wei Heng disappear, do you still have an impression?" Zhou Lingwei frowned and asked everyone, but the answer he got was not ideal, because no one noticed when Wei Heng disappeared.
"He can't have been chased by the fire wave ants, right?"
"No way, if he was chased by the fire wave ants, he would definitely call for help, we couldn't have noticed, but none of us seemed to hear him cry for help. Zhou Lingwei denied the turmoil.
"It can't be a fire wave ant, I feel as if Wei Heng has disappeared all of a sudden, as if he never existed, as if he had been erased from this world. Qi Xue looked at the road she came from and tried to recall.
"I felt the same way, like a bubble that suddenly burst. Han Fang said approvingly.
"It seems that if we want to get to the bottom of the facts, we have to go back a bit. Zhou Lingwei frowned and thought for a while, and finally made a decision.
"You won't encounter fire wave ants again, will you?" asked Feng Bo with a scared face.
"Probably not, the fire wave ants will not stay in one place, and now it should have passed, and the previous road will not be dangerous. Qi Xue obviously agreed with Zhou Lingwei's decision, after all, a partner disappeared inexplicably, and if he didn't figure it out, everyone would feel uneasy.
"Okay, since everyone has no opinions, let's go back now, but now there is less Wei Heng, there are no props for pathfinding, don't scatter, stay vigilant at any time, and be ready to retreat at any time in case of emergencies. Zhou Lingwei's face was solemn, and he solemnly reminded everyone, and only after making sure that everyone had answered, did he start to return to the original way.
However, there was nothing found along the way, and even the footprints were only the four of them, as if Wei Heng had never been here at all, and finally, the group of four people saw the fork in the road before, but the clue ended here, because all the previous footprints were destroyed by the fire wave ants, and it was impossible to distinguish at all, which also meant that the four of them couldn't be sure where Wei Heng disappeared at all.
"Huh, do you feel that the fog here is starting to thicken again? Fengbo looked at the road on both sides and said suspiciously.
