Chapter 22: Cordyceps sinensis from another world

Calm returned to the cave. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It took a long moment for Chris to breathe a sigh of relief.

There were still many small pits left by the strange flowers in the ground ground, and he stepped forward, crouched down and looked at it for a moment, then turned his eyes to the darkness on his right.

That's what those flowers were running in this direction.

Chris groaned a little and walked into the darkness.

The flowers were strange, but they were obviously very timid, so, for now, there didn't seem to be any danger in the hole.

In this cave, there seems to be another world.

How could such a place exist in the elves?

As the firelight moved closer, two caves appeared on the stone wall on the right-hand side, causing Chris to hesitate in front of the entrance.

The entrance to the cave is large enough for two adults to walk side by side, and standing in front of the entrance, you can feel a slight wind blowing outside, with a slight smell of earth and some moisture of rotten wood, and listen attentively, but there is no movement.

Meditative vision.

There were no moving objects inside, but because of the stone wall, Cris's mental power could not penetrate a long distance.

It seems that the two caves are much the same, and perhaps, in the depths of the caves, the two caves are also connected.

Chris settled and walked into the cave on the left.

The ground is solid, and the stone walls exude cold breath and moisture.

Gradually, I walked in, but I didn't see anything, neither plants nor animals, even the flowers just now were gone, and I don't know where they had gone.

The cave was so quiet that only the sound of Chris's footsteps and breathing remained.

The cave grew larger, from a diameter of nearly two meters to about thirty meters.

Gradually, Chrissy noticed that the stone walls on both sides were getting wetter and wetter, and some moss appeared on the heights.

Then, a plant appeared in the corner of the cave.

The green rhizome is curved, the top three petals are oval, surrounded by a straight tube, with the core exposed in the middle, and the other three petals grow under the straight tube, the petals are white, but the center of the petals has irregular blue markings from the depth to the sepals, and the rest of the branches have a few buds that are about to open.

But it had no leaves, and its roots were planted in a small patch of green moss, making it slim, but it was not short, almost up to the waist of Chris.

Based on the previous lesson, Chris cautiously approached it.

He also deliberately moved the fire in his hand to its petals.

No response.

Chris breathed a sigh of relief.

This should be some kind of rare plant, or maybe it may be a magic plant, take Pandis to see it another day, she may be able to recognize it.

He withdrew his hand and stood up.

In the darkness of the cave, a shadow suddenly flashed.

Chrissy suddenly turned around and raised the fire in his hand even higher.

What is it?

Chris wasn't sure, because he was facing the cave on his side just now, and only the corner of his eye swept away.

The depths of the cave were dark, and the firelight penetrated slightly, swaying continuously, reflecting the irregular protrusions on the stone wall on the ground, forming strange shadows.

Not a delusion!

But I didn't hear any sound, and in retrospect, this shadow should have been not small, at least the size of an ordinary child.

In the depths of the black hole, there was a faint emanating aura of gloom and misery.

In the meditative vision, there is no one either.

Chris's left hand was spread out, and a light blue elemental ball appeared in the palm of his hand.

Chris's lips twitched, the incantation was chanted, and the orb of elements turned blue-white and flew straight into the depths of the cavern.

In this confined and small space, the magic and air rubbed against each other, making a "boom" sound, and also pulled out a faint white light, although faint, still faintly illuminated the surrounding cave walls, and then, the lightning ball struck a turning cave wall, emitting a crisp pop, and burst into a shining light.

The wind caused by the explosion soon blew on Chris's face, brushing a strand of long hair from the corner of his forehead, and then gently drifting back to its original place, causing his cheeks to itch slightly.

But Chris's eyes remained unblinking, still fixed on the darkness.

There are no figures.

But there was a voice.

"Rustle"

It's like the sound of drizzle heard in the house.

Getting closer.

The ground beneath Chris's feet made a low rumble and gradually rose up, and a huge platform lifted Chriss to a high place, and when he approached the top of the cave, he stopped.

Chris only glanced up, then turned his gaze to the darkness.

The sound is closer.

Then, Chris's eyes widened involuntarily.

Countless white insects appeared in the light, just from the appearance, very similar to the silkworm in the previous life, fat, the surface of the body glows blue-white, but it is much longer than the silkworm, although Chris can't see their feet, but he can clearly see that their crawling method is the same as the silkworm, arching forward, but the speed is very slow.

They swarmed into the larger cavern, but instead of crawling outward, they spread out and climbed up the walls, where the insects crawled much faster, and some of them crawled there in the shadows.

Seeing that these insects had climbed the stone wall, Chris controlled the earthen wall to slowly lower, came to the ground, carefully approached the stone wall to take a closer look, only to see their stiff bodies tightly attached to the stone wall motionless, couldn't help but be curious, pinched their bodies and pulled out, only to feel that their bodies were cold and stiff, with the slight sound of the roots being torn off, the insects fell on Cris's hands, and there were filamentous grass roots under the abdomen.

Aren't these insects? How did they become plants? Chris was weird.

Stepping on the ground with this thing in his hand, it was not a "poof" sound of a broken stomach, but a "pop" sound of broken rhizomes, and when he raised his foot to move the firelight closer, it was also the juice of the plant, and there was no insect intestine in the broken place, and the smell of grass was also in the nose.

From insect to plant in minutes?

Cordyceps sinensis from another world!

The cordyceps sinensis in the previous life was not so exaggerated.

There was a "sizzle" sound in his ears, and Chris looked back and was startled.

The flower in the corner of the stone wall was moving.

The moss under its feet was moving slowly, like countless slender snakes winding towards the small insects lying on the stone wall, and slowly shaking its body, gradually, as if standing on tiptoe, the body slowly tilted back, and many moss-like slender rhizomes crawled out, entwining the "insects" on the stone wall, and then ripped off one by one, pulling towards their roots.

The smell of decay that Chris had smelled before was getting stronger and stronger.

After about a dozen "bugs" were pulled to the roots, the flower slowly swayed its body, and the moss-like roots surrounded it, some of them burrowed back into the ground, and some of them were still coiled on the ground, like moss, and the flowers also opened up slightly yearning, as if sighing with satisfaction.
