Chapter Ninety-Three: Demon Worms
"Xiao Gongzi, why did you run away later?" Shangguan Wan'er looked at Xiao Zheng very puzzled
"Because I saw them!" Xiao Zheng pointed to the four elven clansmen who were busy with the loot, and said, "I originally wanted to stop them, but they moved too fast, and then I chased them, but then they didn't catch up, but I was surrounded by a group of praying mantises!"
"Uh, and then?" Han Ling'er blinked her eyes and said curiously, and those elf people have changed a lot, even if they know that they are talking about them, they don't pay too much attention to it, in the past two days in the forest, the elf people have already discovered that the outside world is different from the elf continent, and the danger is just that, more importantly, they must have the ability to survive and survive
"Later, I opened up with those praying mantises, and the praying mantis I encountered at the beginning were not very powerful, although they were a little tricky, they could still be solved in a few minutes!" Xiao Zheng paused, and said with a solemn look on his face: "But another very strange beast, its tongue is more than ten meters long, and it can easily pierce that big tree, which really scared me, because I was in a hurry to chase the ten elven clansmen, and the rattan rope was also cut, so I left traces on the tree along the way!"
"Then why don't you kill that disgusting thing!" Han Ling'er said fiercely: "Such a long tongue and that disgusting mucus almost ate me and Wan'er!"
"How is that possible!" Xiao Zheng suddenly changed color, and said: "Shouldn't the tapir just find a target and not choose the second one, how can he choose to attack you!"
"Ah, you know!" Shangguan Wan'er was stunned, and looked at Xiao Zheng with some disbelieving
"What kind of eyes are you!" Xiao Zheng was speechless for a moment, and explained: "Although I haven't seen a lot, I still know some, and it just so happens that I know this, otherwise I wouldn't have left to leave such a scourge!"
"Giggles!" Bing'er covered her mouth and snickered, since she woke up, Bing'er has been holding Xiao Zheng's arm and never let go, watching Xiao Zheng eat deflated, Bing'er was a little gloating: "What about after that?"
"I got lost there after that!" Xiao Zheng spread his hands and said, "Later, I changed to the opposite direction, and I also encountered a smaller dinosaur spider, kill it and move on!"
"Uh, what about the corpses? Why didn't we see them!" Han Ling'er wondered
"It's all eaten, haven't you noticed that those dead beasts have not left a trace!" Xiao Zheng finally found an opportunity and looked back with contempt, Han Ling'er suddenly puffed out his cheeks, grabbed Bing'er's hand, and looked at Xiao Zheng angrily
"Then the big spider is looking for you to take revenge!" Bing'er looked at Xiao Zhengdao
"No, when I went over, I happened to see three elves being eaten!" Xiao Zheng looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said solemnly: "Those praying mantis seem to be under the command of that dinosaur spider, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger, which may be the reason why your people failed to escape!"
"Anyway, thank you!" Shangguan Wan'er's face was a little gloomy, and the death of the clansman made Shangguan Wan'er very guilty and sad
"It's not your fault!" Xiao Zheng sighed and comforted, it always makes people sad to see the people around him die, but what can this be, only by working hard to protect it
"By the way, how can't the tapir's tongue kill it!" Han Ling'er suddenly remembered something and asked
"It's true that the tapir was poisoned by Ling'er's unscrupulous **, but that tongue didn't have anything at all, it was still alive, if it wasn't urgent, we must study it well!" Shangguan Wan'er also said strangely, always feeling that the tongue was a little weird
"Uh, no!" Xiao Zheng was stunned, looked at Bing'er and said strangely: "It's all poisoned, that tongue is part of it, how can it not be dead?"
"I don't know!" Bing'er also suddenly felt that something was wrong, and looked at Xiao Zhengdao: "Husband, haven't you read the relevant books, do you know what's going on!"
"Uh, I want to think about it!" Xiao Zheng touched his chin and thought carefully, the information of the tapir kept flashing in his mind, but there were still no specific clues, but he felt as if he was missing any information
"That's not right!" Xiao Zheng opened his eyes, looked at the third girl, and said solemnly: "You said that the tongue of the tapir you killed has mucus, what kind of blood is it that flows out after being cut off!"
"Bright red, but sticky!" Han Ling'er thought for a moment and said, "What's wrong?"
"And what color is that tapir's tongue?" Xiao Zheng continued to ask
"Red, but a little whitish!" Shangguan Wan'er and Bing'er finally reflected, looked at Xiao Zheng suspiciously, and said, "Is there any problem?"
"Of course there is a problem!" Xiao Zheng lowered his head, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "The tapir's tongue is indeed more than ten meters long, but the tapir's tongue is generally free of mucus, and the tapir's tongue is bright red and will not be white, not to mention that you say that the blood flowing out of its tongue is viscous and bright red, then it is even more impossible, the blood flowing out of the tapir's tongue is light red, and it is not viscous at all, but like water!"
"This, how is this possible!" Han Ling'er was a little incredulous, and said strangely: "Then what did we kill, isn't it a tapir?"
"No!" Shangguan Wan'er said helplessly: "It's a demon, but it's a devil's demon!"
"Well, you two have read my sister's book, too!" Bing'er looked at the two in amazement
"Uh, Bing'er, you've seen it too?" Xiao Zheng and Shangguan Wan'er looked at Dongfang Bing'er curiously, because Dongfang Bing'er was not a person who loved to read
"Cut! I'm too lazy to look!" Bing'er shook Xiao Zheng's hair very chic and said
"What the hell is going on!" Han Ling'er looked at the three of them innocently, just now a gust of wind blew, and it just happened to blow Han Ling'er's face with Bing'er's hair
"The tapir and the demon insect are deliberately put together in "Qizhilu", not only because they have the same sound, but also because the two have a certain connection!" Shangguan Wan'er said carefully
"Tapir is a kind of beast that feeds on human brains and ants, but most of them are mainly eaten, and its characteristics are the same as mice, but its size is far more than that of mice, and its tongue is extremely long, it can easily penetrate any obstacle, but there are many kinds of tapirs, but only this tapir will suck human brains, as for the magic insect, it is actually like a bug, but its appearance is strange, and the tapir has a tongue-like thing of more than ten meters, and its head is the same as the human brain, hidden in the ground when it is young, Once there is a suitable prey, it will stab its long tongue into its brain, suck it and control the prey, the conditions for the first predation of the demon insect are very harsh, it must be this tapir that sucks the human brain, one is because it is easy to camouflage, and can better avoid its natural enemies!" Shangguan Wan'er once again acted as a point reader, allowing everyone to increase their knowledge
"Then what we encountered is a tapir controlled by demon insects?" Han Ling'er said with a wink
"That's right, but we've already killed the tapir where it lodges, and the demon worm should soon have a natural predator to find it!" Shangguan Wan'er nodded and said
"What is the natural enemy of the demon worm?" Bing'er asked curiously
"The natural enemy of the demon insect is the insect! all kinds of insects are its natural enemy!" Xiao Zheng explained: "Insects have a very low IQ, their brains are too small, and the magic insects have no way to start, so they can only become food for insects in the end, and the slime of the magic insects will emit an inexplicable smell, which is the favorite of insects!"
"What if that demon worm never died?" Han Ling'er said strangely
"That will be a no-go zone within the reach of its tongue!" Xiao Zheng said solemnly: "Demon insects can move, once they find a suitable place to stay, countless creatures will be killed by them, and even a second and third will grow, and their length will also increase!"
"Whew! Shangguan Wan'er and Bing'er breathed a sigh of relief
"Uh, what are you doing here?" Xiao Zheng looked at the third daughter a little inexplicably
"When we were leaving, we were not at ease, so we shot four arrows, nailing the tongue of the demon insect and the root of the tree together, and I don't know what happened now!" Bing'er said lightly
"Then why didn't you attack Ling'er? You must know that Ling'er was very close at that time!" Shangguan Wan'er suddenly thought of something, looked at Han Ling'er, showed a wicked smile, and said gloomily: "Shouldn't we check it!" After speaking, Shangguan Wan'er rushed towards Han Ling'er
"Uh, you guys are really" Xiao Zheng heard that it was nailed to the trunk of the tree, and he was immediately helpless, you must know that the IQ of the demon insect is very high, and you can guess it just by looking at its head that looks like a human brain, but you didn't attack Ling'er, hehe, it was Han Ling'er's unscrupulousness** that stunned it, and it could be put away with the strange anti-toxicity of the demon worm, which was really pitiful
Seeing the three girls fighting together, Xiao Zheng closed his eyes a little tiredly
"Hiss!" A fist-sized spider sucked the blood of the demon insect nailed to the trunk of the tree unscrupulously, but the demon insect had no way, and next to these small dinosaurs, there was a behemoth staring at the demon worm with the skull of the giant rabbit, once the demon worm showed any horse feet, this huge dinosaur spider would not hesitate to eat it
In the middle of the night, the demon insect preyed on a giant rabbit again, but every time it acted, the long tongue of the demon insect nailed would always burst into a wound, flowing out viscous blood, and the larvae of the dinosaur spider and the double-edged praying mantis were waiting beside it, ready to suck the delicious food at any time, and rarely, all kinds of insects gathered here without the slightest conflict, without any sense of disobedience, and the larvae that had sucked the viscous blood of the demon insect had faint red lines
The night is deep, the elves are hidden in the night, the bonfire is still faintly emitting a faint green smoke, and the beast roar is heard from time to time in the distance, and even a faint human voice is heard, the elves in the night open their eyes and look into the distance, for some reason in their hearts, there is a feeling of panic, the screams do not stop in the night, the beast roar also resounded throughout the night, only Bing'er and Han Ling'er fell asleep deeply, and the rest of the people all woke up because of this, looking at the depths with some solemnity
Looking at Xiao Zheng sitting cross-legged on the trunk of the tree, everyone felt a little comforted in their hearts, but now it is certain that there have been many people who have broken into the deeper part of the jungle and are seriously injured
Shangguan Wan'er walked to the branch where Xiao Zheng was sitting, sat down lightly, without the slightest feeling, looking at Xiao Zheng's contemplation, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but stretch out her jade hand to Xiao Zheng's face
