Chapter 1692: There Must Be a Reason
Jiang Xingchen and Wang Tong didn't pay attention to the old man anymore, they felt that they were not in the same world as this kind of strange and whimsical person.
Next, they began to implement Jiang Xingchen's plan, preparing to catch a bobbit worm alive. But when the old man stood on the shore of the harbor, there was no movement in the water.
The group of people were dumbfounded, it seemed that those bobbit bugs were not just unintelligent bugs, and it was obvious that after the killing just now, they were careful.
"What can I do?" Wang Tong, Wang Zhicheng and the Linhai City Lord all looked at Jiang Xingchen and waited for him to figure out a way.
Jiang Xingchen didn't speak, but set up a material exploration array. Holding back the faint pain in his mind, he stretched a piece of vitality into the ground, and then into the water.
"Hiss~" After a moment, Jiang Xingchen gasped. In the mud and sand below the seabed outside the dock, almost everywhere were Bobbit worms about two meters out, and their two hard jaws were wide open and motionless. It is covered with six miles of water along the wharf, extending outward for nearly 100 meters.
"There are hundreds, thousands!" Jiang Xingchen secretly said in his heart: "No wonder the killer whales are all defeated and fled!"
"Paralyzed, there's a kind of you coming out!" The old man on the shore of the dock was so angry that he smashed a big rock into the water, and he still wanted to show his might, but the Bobbit worm was instigated, how could he be caught alive. Go into the water and catch it, he doesn't have the guts. Don't talk about him, even if it's pink, Da Bai and the demon fox probably can't fight these bugs in the water.
"Why don't we change people, I don't dare to come out here!" The old man turned his head and said to Jiang Xingchen.
Jiang Xingchen retracted his vitality, stopped the formation, shook his head and said, "Bobbit worms are even smarter than we imagined, and they are quite sensitive to the vibrations of the outside world, even if they are replaced now, I'm afraid they won't be fooled!"
"Is there no other way?" The old man walked back depressed.
"Let's go back first, let me think about it!" Jiang Xingchen rubbed his temples. Yuan Quan's injuries have not yet been neatly resolved, and his head is still painful when he used the material detection array just now.
"Okay, let's go back first!" The Linhai City Lord nodded, he didn't expect that Jiang Xingchen would be able to solve the problem when he came.
"Pink, ribs, you two go out to the open sea and look for mung beans. Jiang Xingchen commanded. Only then did he turn and leave.
Pink chirped in response, and was just about to leave with the ribs, when the old man raised his hand and threw out a glass bottle upwards, and said loudly: "Take the dragon's blood with you!"
"Yo~" The ribs chirped, grabbed the bottle very accurately, and then flew into the distance with the pink wings.
"Okay, old man, you think about it enough, you actually have dragon blood!" Jiang Xingchen sighed, he was in a hurry to go out. I didn't prepare any of that.
"It's called experience! Boy, you're still tender!" The old man raised his head in a daze.
"Stinky fart!" Jiang Xingchen pursed his lips and smiled, and walked towards Linhai City surrounded by Wang Tong and them
After returning to the palace, the banquet had already been placed, but no one was in the mood to eat and drink at the moment, Jiang Xingchen filled his stomach and asked Wang Tong to prepare a quiet room for him, saying that he wanted to be quiet, but the old man didn't let him in.
The old man was very unhappy. was so angry that he blew his beard, and told Tang Chuxue when he went back. You like a girl named Quiet.
The corners of Jiang Xingchen's mouth twitched wildly, could it be that this old guy also crossed over from the earth, and even I know that I want to be quiet
About four hours later, at about nine o'clock in the evening, Pink and Ribs flew back, saying that they had found a pod of killer whales. On the sea two hundred miles south of the port. The injuries of the killer whales are indeed very serious, especially the little guy Doudou, who has more than ten terrifying wounds all over his body, and is already dying.
Jiang Xingchen was very worried after hearing this, and asked about the current situation.
Pink told Jiang Xingchen. Although Doudou's injuries were serious, he had improved after eating dragon blood and was out of danger.
Jiang Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and couldn't help but praise the old man again for thinking about it, if he didn't bring dragon blood, I'm afraid Doudou wouldn't be able to save him
Not long after they came back, the old man hurriedly ran over and told Jiang Xingchen that there was a letter from Minggang City, and everything was normal on their side, and they didn't find the sea monster.
"Minggang City, no?" Jiang Xingchen frowned, could it be that these insects were really artificially arranged, specifically for Dali Coastal Areas, but this explanation is too far-fetched, not to mention who can drive a ferocious demon beast like Bobbit Worm, it can't be said that it is specifically aimed at Dali.
"Boy, I've always thought something was wrong. The bugs are so weird, there must be a reason!" The old man said solemnly.
"I know that bugs don't show up along the coast for no reason, there must be a reason for this, but what is the problem?" Jiang Xingchen narrowed his eyes and whispered.
"I don't know. Anyway, to say that someone drove this kind of monster, I don't believe it. The old man shook his head and said.
"There is no reply from Mingque Island, wait until tomorrow to see the news from the fourth child's side and then make a judgment!" Jiang Xingchen exhaled.
After a moment of silence, the old man asked, "Boy, have you thought of a way to catch Bobbit worms alive?"
"If there is any way, I will quote it tomorrow. If these bugs stay here and don't leave, there is a reason why they don't leave. Even if they are frightened today, they will still attack tomorrow, whether it is for food or something else, we can try to get on the ship and go back from overseas tomorrow to see if they will attack!"
The old man picked his thumb after hearing this, thinking that this was a good method, and then got up and left, and went outside to beckon the ribs to come down, he wanted to go and see the condition of the killer whales, mainly Doudou
There was no word all night, and soon after Jiang Xingchen got up the next morning, the private soldiers sent a letter from Mingque Island.
Jiang Xingchen took it over and watched, and his pupils shrank. The fourth child said in the letter that this ferocious sea monster has also been found off the coast of Mingque Island, and dozens of people have gone missing. In addition, there are also those along the coast of Mandan Island and the coast of Sizhou Island. In particular, most of the overseas trade is now stagnant.
"There are also overseas islands, which excludes the possibility of man-made, so how did these Bobbit worms come about?There must be a reason, there must be a reason," Jiang Xingchen muttered and bowed his head in thought.
"Bang bang bang!" The knock on the door woke him up, and when he looked up, he saw Wang Tong, Wang Zhicheng and the city lord of Linhai already waiting outside the door.
Jiang Xingchen hurriedly got up to greet him, but the Linhai City Lord didn't even dare to say it, and then asked, "Sir, have you ever thought of a way to catch the Bobbit worm alive?"
"It's still going to be drawn, but let's get on board today!" Jiang Xingchen said with a smile, and then walked out. Wang Tong, Wang Zhicheng and the city lord of Linhai hurriedly followed, and the group went to the dock again. (To be continued.) )
