Chapter 53: Assumption
For his younger brother to do this, he can only stare dryly, who let him put the other party last time, and now he will return the other way with his own way, and directly let him have nothing to do.
"Stinky boy!" shook his head with a wry smile: "Yes, let your kid once." ”
Turned around and gave various orders to the aircraft, the last time the two were negligent, so that Wang Lung almost finished playing, as the saying goes, eat a trench and grow wise, he doesn't want Wang Lung to fall into danger again because of himself, even if Wang Lung doesn't strangle himself to death at that time, he will have no face to face Wang Lung.
In fact, the order given to the flying machine is very simple, that is, to monitor the signs of life activities within a range of five hundred kilometers around Wang Lung, although after becoming a cultivator, the aura can be restrained, and the aircraft cannot detect it, but is there such a thing as a case?
As for using the divine sense to control the wind for Wang Long, the first brother and sister didn't think about it, but they didn't dare to release their divine sense casually, they only cultivated to the infant stage, and there were not a few cultivators in the Yuan infant stage on the Green Plains Star, even if they were cultivators of the same level, they could find eight or nine percent with their divine sense, but in the face of the Yuan infant stage, they had no choice.
If there are no Yuan Infant Stage cultivators nearby, they will naturally not expose their whereabouts, but if any hidden master is swept by his divine sense, he will not be able to find the other party, but the other party can know his existence, which is undoubtedly a provocation, and he will expose his whereabouts to the other party, so not only can not be safe for Wang Lung, but will make everyone fall into danger at the same time.
Regarding this point, the two brothers told Wang Long, Wang Lung did not object, and he also understood the consequences of doing that, since it was a wind, he tried to keep a low profile, Yuan Infant Stage cultivator. Although they can't be defeated, their divine consciousness may not be able to detect it, so it's better to do it safely than to expose their whereabouts.
Cultivators below the Yuan Infant Stage, although they can find most of them, they really have to be right. Wang Lung is confident that even if he can't win, there will not be much danger, and there will definitely be no problem in escaping safely, like the elephant leech he encountered a few days ago was purely accidental, he couldn't be unlucky, if he really wanted to meet it again, he had nothing to say.
Time is the most merciless, since stepping foot in the swampy area, look around. Countless puddle meadows, this is still good, some places are obviously meadows, in fact, after stepping on it, you will find that the grass roots are full of mias, and you will fall into it if you are not careful, with Wang Lung's current strength, although he is not afraid, it is more troublesome. Don't talk about the delay, who knows what monsters are hidden in the quagmire of the road.
In an instant. In the past week, Wang Lung has only searched most of the swamp area, and naturally he has not found the Nine Nights Fennel that meets the requirements, but he has found two good spirit grasses, if it is changed to usual, Wang Lung will definitely be very satisfied. It's a pity that he is now in a hurry to find the Nine Nights, and he can't find the eligible Thousand-Year-Old Nine Nights, even if he finds another thousand-year-old yellow cypress, he won't be of much interest.
Green Plains Star entered the night again, and Wang Lung and Yi sat in the aircraft staring at the virtual screen, and there were nearly 10,000 markers scurrying around on it. This is Wang Lung's masterpiece, although there is no harvest in a week, he is not stupid enough to be inflexible.
After waking up from the sneak attack of the elephant leech, Wang Lung set foot on the sad ground on the first day, he found two Nine Night Fennels, but unfortunately the year was not enough, when the second Nine Night Fennel was found, this spirit grass was blooming, seeing that its year was only three hundred years, Wang Lung was too lazy to collect, just when he was about to turn around and leave, another beast popped out of the puddle to provoke him.
This time, Wang Lung didn't shoot directly stupidly, but only killed the other party after finding out his identity, a small earth soul rat, even the strength of a cultivator has not reached, naturally it is impossible to pose any threat to him, and he will directly pinch the earth soul rat to death when he raises his hand.
After the death of the Earth Soul Rat, some blood stuck to Wang Long's hand, and he wanted to wash it off directly, but he suddenly remembered that although the Earth Soul Rat did not have much lethality, its blood was not easy to remove, and it could not eliminate the traces in a short time with ordinary water, and it would take more than half a month to do it regardless of it.
Thinking of this, Wang Lung glanced back at the three-hundred-year-old Nine Nights Fennel, and a bold idea suddenly popped up in his heart, if it was feasible, he was very likely to find the thousand-year-old Nine Nights.
Back in the flying machine, Wang Lung told him the idea and asked him to help see if he could implement his plan.
In fact, it is very simple, it is to use the blood of the earth soul rat, let a help to configure a thing, smear it on some plants, and after being smeared, the aircraft can detect signs of their nocturnal activity, although the swamp area is very large, Wang Lung believes that these plants must have some rules or ranges in the nocturnal activity area, if the law is found, it is not difficult to find the thousand-year-old nine night anise.
At first, I felt that Wang Lung's idea was a bit naïve, but after thinking about it, I also felt that it was feasible, and it was better than doing nothing.
Equipped with drugs that can be monitored by the aircraft, he didn't have that ability, so he could only pull the empty out of the cultivation cabin and tell the other party Wang Long's plan, and the empty pondered for a moment, saying that it was very simple.
Using the blood of the Earth Soul Rat, adding some special ingredients of medicinal powder, you can configure a potion that can be monitored, this potion does not show any special features from the appearance, it is still the same as the blood of the Earth Soul Rat, and the function of the blood has not only not been eliminated, but its continuous effect has increased to half a year.
Wang Lung had an Earth Soul Rat in his hand, and it took him half a day to prepare a potion that was more than half a catty, and he didn't need to smear all the leaves, just a little bit of it.
Originally, Wang Lung took the three-hundred-year-old Nine Nights as the center, and smeared all the plants and trees in its vicinity, except for the Nine Nights of Zhilu Dao, which other plants would be active at night, Wang Lung didn't know, it didn't matter, the main thing was to monitor the Nine Nights.
Wang Lung first smeared a little bit of the three-hundred-year-old Nine Nights, and asked Yi to turn on the monitoring system of the new edit of the aircraft to see if it could be found, and sure enough, Wang Lung's idea was true, and even the shape of its smear was undoubtedly revealed, which made Wang Lung very satisfied.
It's a pity that an earth soul rat doesn't have much blood, and the potion of the empty configuration is quickly used up, and it is only coated with nearly a thousand plants, in order to distinguish various spiritual herbs and weeds, Wang Lung made a special mark when he applied it, and waited at night to see which plants would be crazy.
Before nightfall, Wang Lung returned to the aircraft in advance, wanting to see how he had achieved.
There was only one companion Wang Lung in the aircraft. And the empty was still meditating in the cultivation cabin, and after being pulled out by his brother to prepare the potion for Wang Long, he immediately ran back, which made a dozen of his calculations fall through again.
The sun sets, the night falls, and the nearly a thousand plants that have been smeared with the potion. Nearly ninety percent of them stayed in place without any change, and more than two dozen plants, led by the three-hundred-year-old nine-night anniec, began to move.
Those moving plants, the speed is fast and slow, and there is even one that stops moving after running less than 100 meters, the specific reason Wang Lung does not know, he can only wait for dawn to go down and see.
The night passed quickly, and Wang Lung moved his somewhat stiff body, ready to go down to see the plants that had been active last night, he had many doubts to be solved.
First of all. Nearly a thousand plants have been smeared for what is the cause, and only about two dozen will move, what is the difference between them and those that do not move?
Secondly, for what kind of plants move about 100 meters and stop moving?
Again, what is the marked plant that disappears, is it the mark disappearing or the plant disappearing?
Then, these moving areas of plant activity vary in size and along inconsistent routes. To be examined.
At the end, the range of movement of the Nine Nights is a little strange. It doesn't seem to fit in.
In fact, there are still many things that make Wang Lung puzzled, and these are the only plants he can observe at hand, and he can't find much in one night, so he can only uncover a small part of the mystery first.
Wang Lung first approached the plant, which had only run less than 100 meters, and saw that it was still rooted in the meadow, with no signs of being crushed or broken. It's just that there are some slight changes in the environment in which it takes root.
Upon closer inspection, Wang Lung found that this thing was a kind of spirit grass, called Hydra Grass, less than ten years old, and recalled the memory of when he smeared it yesterday. Wang Lung carefully excavated the grass with his hands, and saw that there was an inconspicuous black mud in its rooted part, twisted a little and put it under his nose to smell, Wang Lung smiled.
There are no harsh conditions where the hydra grass grows, as long as the water source is abundant and the soil is loose, it can take root, but burying the dead animal corpse in the place where the hydra grass takes root, it will grow better, and the hydra grass in Wang Long's hand will no longer move after running less than 100 meters, and the reason is that the inconspicuous black mud.
Sniffing through his nose, Wang Lung found that the black mud contained the smell of rotting corpses, and he didn't know what kind of animal left behind the corpses after death.
In order to verify the conjecture in his heart, Wang Lung walked to the place where the potion was applied yesterday, dug up the place where the hydra grass took root yesterday, and took a closer look, sure enough, there is no breath of carrion in this place, and the hydroid grass can be active at night, the reason why it moves a hundred meters and no longer moves, but that place has a carrion corpse, which is a rare nutrient for it, and when the ingredients of the carrion are completely absorbed, Wang Lung believes that the hydroid grass in his hand will still run around.
Buried the hydra grass back in its original place, Wang Lung took out a piece of silk paper, recorded the discovery on it, and left it for the aircraft to do a detailed analysis later, only to find a suspicious point, whether it is correct is not yet known, there must be more information to summarize in the future, or it is more reliable to write it down.
Punching into the air with a gesture, Wang Lung walked towards a moving plant.
Half a day later, Wang Lung finally re-observed all the monitored plants, and got some results, but he was not sure whether it was correct, it was only the first day, as long as this method was effective, he didn't care about spending some more time.
One is that all the plants that move are spirit grass, and ordinary weeds stay in place, no matter how long the year is, even if it is less than a year, as long as it belongs to a kind of spirit grass, it will move at night, this discovery makes Wang Lung excited, if he guessed correctly, the plant army at night in the green plain star is all composed of spirit grass.
The second is that the marked plant suddenly disappeared, Wang Lung came to a guess after checking it, it may have been swallowed by some kind of beast clan, and the beast clan that devoured it did not escape the siege of the plant army, all kinds of blood or something unknown mixed together, so that the mark disappeared completely, the reason why he had such an idea was that he found some traces of weeds being overwhelmed in the place where the mark disappeared, and a trace of blood was found on the root of the weeds, not a potion refined in the air.
The third is that some spirit grasses move at different speeds, and the activity routes are not the same, for this, Wang Lung didn't find much, he just noticed a detail, there are high-level spirit grasses around, generally long years, or relatively cherished, he ran back and forth to yesterday's smearing site several times, carefully made some observations, within the range of a hundred zhang, either there are about a hundred years of spirit grass appeared, or there is a more precious spirit grass, is it possible that the plant army is still ranked, just like the army, the soldiers follow the general? This finding cannot be interpreted correctly and can only be used as a reference.
Fourth, the three-hundred-year-old Nine Nights Fennie actually ran more than 300 kilometers, this is only a straight line distance, its movement route last night was tortuous and complicated, really to calculate, at least nearly 10,000 kilometers, there are many pauses on the way, each pause is about ten minutes, and its movement route is not limited by the growth environment, puddles, meadows, swamps, etc. have its footprints, which means that at night, the Nine Nights Fennie can run all over the world, and is not subject to environmental constraints at all.
Through a morning's observation, Wang Lung has not come to many conclusions, but only one thing can be confirmed, the plants that can move at night are all spirit grasses, which makes his future work have a focus, but there is another point that Wang Lung has a headache, that is, he has no potion in his hand, and if he wants to configure the potion, he must catch more ground soul rats.
A small Earth Soul Rat didn't expect it to be able to provide so much help to Wang Lung until it died, and it didn't even expect that its own death was just the beginning, and in the next few days, the entire Earth Soul Rat clan would usher in a nightmare hunt, and the enemy was Wang Lung.
