Chapter 227: Waiting for the Wind to Come
The scenery unfolding in front of Xu Yunshu can be said to be within his imagination, or it can be said to be unexpected.
Xu Yunshu had imagined that this swamp, which could not be seen as an end and was steaming all day long, was essentially a suffocating fungal mass.
This is just a conclusion he came to after sorting out and summarizing the existing intelligence and clues.
However, in the absence of evidence, the so-called conclusions are only speculation.
However, what appears in front of Xu Yunshu's eyes now is the scene where all his speculations fall into reality.
He found the so-called evidence -
In front of Xu Yun's writing is a flat "wall".
The reason for this quotation mark is that the so-called wall is nothing more than a replica of the soft floor, it is not vertical, it has a certain angle, and the surface has undulating peaks and valleys, and even overgrown with all kinds of mushrooms.
It is like a copy of the ground under Xu Yunshu's feet.
These mushroom forests stretch upwards along the "wall" from the bottom, gradually shrinking in size, and the fungus community that emits a blue glow begins to mingle, and as the line of sight increases, the blue fungus appears more and more frequently, and finally completely replaces the tall mushroom as the dominant species.
In this dense mushroom forest that was erected, Xu Yunshu saw something familiar.
It was a hole similar to the mud pit in the top marshland, closed by a wrinkled, soft and strange substance, and it was a rare large vent for its size.
The edge of the hole is also mixed with dense hyphae, which can make every dense phobia patient sick on the spot.
Zhao Yulang led a large team to stop here, and leaned to the side of the hole, waiting quietly.
While waiting, he did not forget to explain the reason to Xu Yunshu.
"Wait for the wind to hiss."
……
Xu Yunshu was speechless for a moment.
Putting aside Zhao Yulang's hoarse voice when he spoke, the words "waiting for the wind" sounded quite small and fresh.
It's just that when the wind really comes, all the little fresh fantasies are crushed.
After a few minutes, the huge hole began to move, and the folds that blocked the hole gradually dispersed and withered, which made the huge hole bloom like a chrysanthemum, and a strong wind blew in from outside the hole, carrying the smell of grass blades and earth, and formed a howling wind through the squeezing of the hole.
At the same time, the entire wall began to collapse inward, and the mushrooms growing on the wall were squeezing each other, and many of the mushroom spores and sap spilled down, drenching the crowd all over their bodies.
Thankfully, these things aren't disgusting, in fact, they taste pretty good.
It fills the stomach, but it can't fill the energy.
They themselves are the food for the lowest dream creatures.
Under the raging wind, the mushrooms growing in front of the hole were completely destroyed, and many weak species were even uprooted and blown away in all directions.
The violent wind lasted for about five seconds, and then suddenly disappeared.
The strange folds refilled the holes, and there was no longer a single air leaking out.
Xu Yunshu looked around, and as the outside air surged in, close to the edge of the wall, all the soft corners seemed to swell.
He recalled that at the top of the swamp, the mud puddles seemed to be spitting out air at a frequency of about five seconds.
Maybe it's a linkage with this side.
"Yes! Let's go! ”
Zhao Yulang, who had left the swamp through this road, suddenly shouted loudly, and at the same time howled a few times in the simple language of the Gang clan, so a moment later, a group of hundreds of beasts stood in front of the hole again under Zhao Yulang's arrangement.
When Xu Yunshu stood back in place, he already understood Zhao Yulang's intentions.
He was a little moved by the magic of this swamp, and looked at the embarrassment that Zhao Yulang possessed.
In order to find a way out of the swamp, the Gang must have paid a lot of lives, right?
After a brief pause, the holes in the folds opened again.
This time, the closed second layer of internal air is surging outward.
When facing this huge hole, Xu Yunshu saw the world outside the hole clearly for the first time.
It was a special passage made of countless slender hyphae intertwined and intertwined.
Xu Yunshu saw that Zhao Yulang had sampled him, jumped into the mycelium passage blown by the wind as a striker, and floated towards the depths of the passage by the air current.
The tuyere period is only five seconds, and it will not wait for obsolescence.
He saw that the rest of the Yakuza also jumped into the hole, and the temple plates they were carrying carried by the wind flew away at great speed.
When Xu Yunshu jumped out of the hole, there were still 4 seconds left.
He originally thought that his body was too heavy, and the wind blowing through the hole might not be able to carry it, but the moment he jumped out, he was ready to open the membrane.
However, this concern is obviously unfounded.
Xu Yunshu sensed a powerful thrust that drove him to sprint forward in mid-air, and combined with the force exerted by himself when he kicked the ground, his figure quickly surpassed all the embarrassment clans and was in the front row.
The densely wound mycelium failed to completely block the sunlight, and in this fleeting scene of light and shadow, Xu Yunshu's powerful dynamic vision saw many strange things.
Through the gaps in the mycelium, one could see the outside of the soft wall at the edge of the swamp, as well as the real rocks not far from it.
These strange mycelial passages actually act as a fixture, holding the huge fungal mass that forms the marshland together on the rocky cliffs, growing steadily and firmly in them.
Xu Yunshu has reason to believe that under this shocking fungus cluster, there should be some huge plain, which may have been lush and green at the same time, but after the strange fungal mass occupied this place, other creatures that did not adapt to the changes gradually died out.
What impact this terrifying fungal mass would have on the ecology of the Dream Forest was not something that Xu Yunshu needed to consider.
Professor Xue may be interested in this, but Xu Yunshu is in a competition for survival every day, and he has no time to take care of academic problems.
He only vaguely knew one thing, the fungus had not infested the land in the corner of the Dream Forest, where the white wolf recuperated and rested, was covered with pupae.
As the figure swept forward, the long-lost sunlight disappeared again, replaced by a deep darkness.
The group descended into a cave made of real rocky soil.
It was still covered in mycelium, but it was noticeably more sparse than it was when the hole was first drilled.
Five seconds is a flash.
Hundreds of Yakuza clans were like hailstones that suddenly fell to the ground, and when they fell to the ground, there was an endless crackling sound.
Fortunately, although the mycelium was evacuated, it was still able to cover the entire ground.
Maybe some of the beasts were injured, but they didn't hear the wail, and Xu Yunshu knew that they were fine.
Compared with the embarrassed clan that fell, Xu Yunshu was much more elegant when he landed.
Through his repeated physical reinforcements over the past few days, he has mastered his own structure more deeply than all possessed ones, landing on all fours with only a slight twist of his body in the air.
Although the sound when landing was louder than that of all beasts, this was because of the size of the body, Xu Yunshu himself felt that this time the jump and landing could at least hit a nine-point level.
With the faint sunlight that shone into the cave and was almost nonexistent, Xu Yunshu saw the last destination of these myceliums.
They scatter and burrow into the soil, where they grow and suck nutrients deep underground.
When Xu Yunshu saw this, he knew that his speculation was correct.
The mycelium is indeed widely distributed in the ground around a corner of the Dream Forest - except perhaps only for the Dream Forest itself.
