Chapter 213: Xi Yuan Sai (39)
Ye Qingting was pondering when a scream interrupted his thoughts.
"Ahh——!h
Cui Tianxiao's face was distorted in pain, his left hand was clenched tightly, and blood was dripping from his clenched fingers.
"What's wrong?"
"Something bit me!"
Everyone gathered around, Ye Qingting broke Cui Tianxiao's hand, and saw that there was a half-inch-long wound in his palm, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade, the incision was flat and extremely deep, and the tendons were exposed.
Blood trickled down into the lake, and the calm surface of the water suddenly boiled like a boiling pot.
Qi Ming pointed to the lake and exclaimed, "Yes, it's a fish!" Look, transparent fish! ”
Under his reminder, everyone realized that there were many small flat fish the length of thumbs in the water, attracted by the smell of blood, and rampaging in this water.
The small fish have transparent bodies, and their eyes, bones, and internal organs are silvery and need to be carefully distinguished to be able to find them out of the sparkling water.
There are many transparent fish around the red fierce ants washed away by the special treatment team, and the blood and residue are greedily devoured.
When it encounters a slightly larger piece, the transparent fish swims around the piece and uses its knife-sharp dorsal fin to chop up the pieces until they are cut into pieces suitable for consumption. The one who cut Cui Tianxiao's palm just now should be the fin in the state of rapid swimming.
Li Xing frowned, a little bit of blood and residue can attract so many transparent fish, so how dense is the transparent fish in the entire Yao Pond?
Although she is not a pessimist, what has happened since the start of the competition has forced her to prepare for the worst.
——————
The camera transmitted the appearance of the transparent fish back to the live broadcast site, and the host saw that the small fish was only an inch long, so he didn't take it seriously.
"This little fish is transparent, and it doesn't look threatening."
Lin Zhi'an: "On the contrary, their danger is higher than that of the Heavenly Rank Water Beasts. ”
The host was shocked: "Huh? This ......"
"This fish has a flat, sharp body like a blade, and it haunts in groups, and wherever it passes, the water beasts are all white bones, so they also get a name, called bone scrapers."
The host was shocked: "Originally, it turns out that this is the bone scraper that ranks first in danger among freshwater water beasts!" ”
Oh my God, how distorted are the pictures in the Encyclopedia of Aquatic Star Beasts, and they don't indicate the multiple when they are enlarged, so that Zhou Jun has always thought that the bone scraper is a giant fish that can swallow people in one bite for so many years.
Figuring out the origin of the transparent fish, the host was also worried: "In this way, the possibility of the two teams swimming to the island is gone." ”
Lin Zhi'an put up his glasses and stared at the live broadcast screen silently. The bone scrapers have appeared, and this game is more difficult than the actual combat of the regular army, I really don't know if the event team has done a field trip in advance.
——————
At this time, in the southwest direction of Yao Chi, Chen Qi was pacing back and forth on the shore with his hands behind his back, feeling irritable.
There are many scratches on his body, although the bleeding has stopped, but the blood stains on the combat uniform are shocking.
"I really can't figure it out, how can such a small fish, swimming in groups, be as powerful as Chu Yunyi's Heavenly Wind Killing Array? If I swam slower just now, now I have drunk all the Meng Po soup! ”
The Desert Boat team was the first to arrive at Yaochi, and the Shangguan brothers and sisters were not very good at using the wind to sweep the dust, so the team decided to swim across the lake.
In order to avoid the attack of large water beasts in the lake, Bai Ling asked Chen Qi, who had the best physical strength and the fastest speed, to be the vanguard, and swam out a distance to reconnoiter first, and if there was no danger, others would follow. Because of this decision, the Desert Ship team was not completely wiped out.
Chen Qi swam less than a hundred meters before a school of small transparent fish surrounded him, swimming rapidly around his body, and the sharp dorsal fin cut through Chen Qi's flesh like a blade.
The blood soon stained the surface of the lake red, and the little fish that tasted the taste of blood became more and more frantically Lingchi. Chen Qi hurriedly wrapped himself with the Earth Yuan Spirit, but the dorsal fins of these small fish could even cut through the petrified layer formed by the elemental force. Chen Qi was shocked, and swam back to the shore desperately, and when he went ashore, the whole person became a blood gourd.
Chen Qi told his teammates about the attack on the transparent fish, and Bai Ling immediately deduced that this small fish was the infamous "bone scraper".
There are such star beasts in the lake, and the danger of swimming across the lake is too high.
They've been here for hours, and they can't think of a way to deal with the Bone Grader. The island in the middle of the lake is in front of you, but you can't go up, how not to make people anxious!
Suddenly, Bai Ling's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Chen Qi, take out the fangs you caught in the morning." ”
Chen Qi opened the space button, and a huge star beast that looked like a wild boar appeared on the ground. The meat on the shoulders and buttocks of the toothy man was roasted and eaten by everyone, but it was still intact.
"Let's peel off the fangy skins and tie them into a raft!"
Chen Qi shook his head: "No, if there is a little meat, those ghost things will come around." ”
Bai Ling was very confident in her own idea, and patiently explained: "Burn the hair and minced meat on the skin, and then wash it with my special potion, which can hide the smell of teething to the greatest extent. Lin Yuan and Xianyu then wrapped the raft with a talisman array, double insurance. ”
"If that doesn't blow the bonescraper, we'll throw the fangy pieces of meat into the water and divert them away."
Everyone thought about it and felt that this method was indeed feasible, after all, the distance of twenty kilometers was not too far, so it would not be that the entire Yao Pond was full of bone scrapers. So the Desert Boat team began to make rafts according to Bai Ling's ideas.
To the southeast of Yaochi, Ye Qingting and Song Shurun were also discussing ways to land on the island.
Song Shurun believes that the snout of transparent fish is small and toothless, and it belongs to scavenging water beasts. As long as they don't get on the debris and make the transparent fish mistakenly think they are food, they won't be attacked.
But Ye Qingting has a different opinion, if the transparent fish is really a scavenger, then why did it evolve a sharp dorsal fin? In his opinion, transparent fish must be predators and only eat scavenging when food is scarce.
Ye Qingting rejected the proposal to swim across the lake, but he couldn't think of a better way. The two had no choice but to find Li Xing again.
"Ah Xing, what do you think we should do?"
Li Xing is also embarrassed, the safest way is of course to fly over.
Of the eight of them, only half of them have mastered flying skills, and no matter how the rest are distributed, at least two of them are left behind.
Taking a step back, even if they barely managed to take everyone with them, twenty kilometers was too far away, and there was no place to stay on the way.
When they can't fly and fall into the deep water, there may be more dangerous water beasts waiting for them than transparent fish.
Damn, if the competition allowed the use of flying machines, would she still have to meditate here?
Well, flying machines?
Wait, she seems to have an idea.
