With her heart in hand, An Lan was ready to be burned by the fire and also threw the protective shield on her side, but was preempted by the Red Flame Whip, and instantly tightly encircled the fire rat, so strong that the fire rat let out a pig-like scream, and the next moment the whip shook it out heavily.

With a muffled "bump" on the ground, the fire rat fell to the ground, twitched twice and stopped moving.

It is estimated that the gas has been cut off.

Jia Shasha reacted extremely quickly, and immediately turned over and rose up the moment the fire rat left, and everyone continued to move forward without stopping. At this time, the fire rat group behind him was enraged by the death of his companion, let out a piercing cry, and chased even tighter.

Tianming continued An Lan's previous words while running: "Although there is no deep hatred between us and this group of fire rats, we can only live and die. ”

Anlan: "I take back my previous words. ”

The five of them hurried down the mountain, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, they ran forward for some distance, and then they all stopped in unison, and turned to look at the fire rats that were constantly chasing behind them.

They can't go back anymore.

At this time, the part of the fire rat that took the lead has gradually begun to turn white. Seeing that the time was ripe, An Lan said to Tianming: "Do it!" ”

It turns out that the spit water that Tianming said is not spit out from the mouth, but gathering the palm to collect the water.

As he closed his eyes and concentrated, the air around his body gradually began to vibrate, and then, the visible water vapor continued to pour towards him, converging in the palm of his hand. It turned out that he had summoned the water vapor from the city for his own use.

Water vapour gradually converges into a current.

The water in front of his palm gathered more and more, and in the blink of an eye, a water vortex was formed, and as the speed of rotation became faster and faster, the vortex gradually accumulated, and then, at a certain unexpected moment, it rushed towards the group of fire rats that were getting closer and closer.

The palm of his hand is the base of the water source, and the water gushes out in the shape of a trumpet, spraying directly on the fierce gods and evil rushing fire rats.

The moment the fire rats came into contact with the water, they saw their bodies suddenly stagnate, and then raised their heads to the sky and let out a scream of exhaustion, but this cry stopped abruptly, and then the fire rats' bodies instantly cracked, shattering into several pieces like dead stones and collapsing to the ground.

Suddenly, the ground was covered with a white stone-like fire rat body, the outer skin was as hard as iron, and the inside was especially flesh and liver.

An Lan thought that such a tragic situation would be enough to stop the attack of the fire rat swarm, but he saw that they directly crossed the corpses of their companions and continued to run towards them without stopping, and behind the fire rat group, there was a blood-cold chewing sound.

When the five of them heard this, they looked at it in disbelief, and they couldn't believe that this group of fire rats actually fed on their own kind?!

Looking at this group of fire rats who were fearless and went to death, An Lan actually had a slight trembling hand. The group of fire rats that rushed ahead had clearly seen the death of their companions, but they showed no signs of hesitation.

Do you not know what to fear?

Or is it a beast that is willing to die and eat for his companions?

If it is the former, it is intellect that is not opened, like an ordinary machine. If it is the latter, the reason for it is unthinkable.

Jia Shasha was also shocked by this scene, and whispered: "These beasts, they are actually ......"

Tianming was also puzzled: "These fire rats don't look like they don't have unenlightened knowledge. ”

"Yes," Huo Yan looked ahead with a solemn face, "when they besieged me before, they were orderly, organized, and disciplined, but now they want to be like robot rats?" ”

Rhino shook his head and said, "Cannibalism is terrifying. Don't they have hearts? ”

"Maybe they're just too caring." An Lan said, she watched the endless rush of fire rats turn into pieces of meat one by one, blood sausages all over the ground, and were devoured by the same kind of people later, the scene was unbearable, and an incredible guess gradually appeared in her heart, "You pay attention to observe, the fire rats rushing in front are bigger than the back." ”

Jia Shasha looked at it and hesitated: "It seems to be an alas." ”

Rhino and Huoyan seemed to think of something at the same time, and looked at An Lan in disbelief: "What do you mean?" ”

An Lan looked at the mountain peak in front of him and said slowly: "Although this volcano is very large, the speed of fire rats reproducing is also very fast, in the Ten Thousand Demon City, this is their only habitat, and after a long time, no matter how big the mountain is, it can't accommodate the growing group of fire rats." ”

Speaking of this, An Lan paused and turned his head to look at them: "And if the fire rat group wants to survive, it must trade in the old for the new. These fire rats in front weigh about 100 catties, all of them are adult fire rats, and the weight of the fire rats that follow behind gradually decreases, and in the end, they are all underage fire rats.

"While the adult fire rat nourishes the juvenile fire rat with its own flesh, it also greatly reduces the number of fire rat populations. It's like human birth, old age, sickness and death. In this way, the newborn fire rats can have a place in this volcano.

"In my opinion, this group of fire rats is not intellectually unenlightened, but overopened, and they are even aware of the laws of survival in nature before the outside world, and reproduce in their own way."

Jia Shasha said: "But cannibalism is too much. ”

Huo Yan said, "I think the way they solve it is simply and directly. ”

At this time, An Lan found that the momentum of the fire rat group rushing forward desperately gradually slowed down, and then, the latest batch of fire rats stopped in front of the water flow, no longer approaching, but still staring at them with eyes and grinning.

Behind the fire rat swarm was the sizzling sound of rats gnawing on corpses.

Seeing this, Tianming stopped. An Lan looked at the group of fire rats who were eyeing them and said, "They won't go any further. ”

"And what do they mean?" Rhino asked.

An Lan said: "They are staying here to ensure that the fire rats behind them will eat the corpses of their companions. ”

"How many fire rats died just now?" Jia Shasha asked.

Tianming said: "There should be most of them." ”

"Nearly two-thirds of the adult fire rats are eaten, and the remaining one-third of the adult fire rats just take on the responsibility of protecting and reproducing the juvenile fire rats. ”

"So," Anlan speculated, "they shouldn't attack us again, but we don't want to get there easily." ”

Their bodies have cooled down so much that it is useless to spray them with water now, and although most of their adult fire rats have died, there are still a considerable number of fire rats left. For An Lan and others who want to take advantage of the volcano, they are still facing a tough battle.

However, there is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and bright. Suddenly, a magical scene appeared.

The fire in the volcano not far away suddenly burst out, and wisps of red ribbons floated in the direction of the five people.

These filamentous fire mist, which looked like they were floating from a distance, grew faster and faster as the red ribbons got closer and faster, and finally converged in their direction like a tornado, and finally, vanished.

Gone?!

An Lan felt inexplicable, turned his head to look, and saw that Huo Yan had grown his mouth and was devouring these flames in a big gulp!

It turns out that the flames just now were eaten by the flames!
