There were originally twelve cacti, but now there are thirteen. What they have been waiting for has arrived.

Where is this extra cactus?

According to Li Banfeng's memory, it was between the fifth and sixth cacti.

Li Banfeng was about to attack with his Tang sword, but Ma Wu signaled Li Banfeng to wait a moment.

Both men turned around at the same time, no longer looking at the cactus.

The cactus was eating a snakehead eel at the moment. It opened the bag and used its thorny arms to pierce an eel.

Then it used its other arm to cut a wound on itself and stuffed the eel into the wound.

This is how it eats, and it does it without making any sound.

Ma Wu is estimating the speed at which the cactus eats fish.

The more it eats, the better, but you can't wait until it finishes eating it all, otherwise the cactus may escape, and something even more terrible may happen.

This time, there were more snakehead eels. Ma Wu wanted to wait a little longer. Li Banfeng's ears trembled, and he heard a voice using his skill of understanding spiritual sounds: "There are more."

What else is this?

Li Banfeng suddenly turned around and found a cactus nearly two meters high standing in front of them.

That was a close call.

Ma Wu was so tired that the cactus finished eating the fish and was ready to move on to the next dish.

The name of this type of cactus is Prickly Pear Cactaceae. It usually hides under the yellow sand and rarely shows up.

The diet of the thornfish is also very diverse. It eats insects and snakes in the sand, but in this new land, there are only two kinds of food that can pull them out of the sand.

The first type is the snakehead eel, which is the fish that Li Banfeng and Ma Wu caught at the lakeside. They like it no matter it is dead or alive.

The second type of food is humans, and we only eat living ones.

The fighting power of the Citun cactus is very strong. Once it attacks, Li Banfeng and Ma Wu will most likely die at the hands of this cactus based on their fighting power.

But the Thorn has a fatal weakness: it cannot move when someone is watching it.

Therefore, Ma Wu and Li Banfeng had to turn their backs to the snakehead eel on the ground at first in order to lure it out from underground.

The Citun came silently and was no different from other cacti. Its shape was extremely difficult to identify. Ma Wu could only confirm the appearance of the Citun by counting.

The crickets also make no sound when swallowing food, so Ma Wu can only estimate the time based on his experience.

This estimate was not very accurate, because this cactus had a huge appetite and quickly ate up all the fish. It was all thanks to Li Banfeng's ability to understand spiritual sounds. If he had waited a little longer, Li Banfeng and Ma Wu might have become his meal.

There is no need to worry now. Ma Wu and Li Banfeng stared at the cactus together. As long as the two of them don’t blink at the same time, it will not move.

"To come to this desert, we need at least two people to avoid the attack of the Citun." Ma Wu waved a short sword more than one foot long, jumped up and split the cactus.

Colorless, clear juice flowed out of the cracked cactus, and Ma Wu found eight peanut-sized beads in the juice.

"This cactus has eaten many people recently..." Ma Wu's expression was a little solemn. He took the kettle and washed the mucus off the beads. Six beads were dark red and two beads were bright red.

Seeing the two bright red beads, Ma Wu smiled slightly.

He won the bet.

"Brother Li, look, these six beads are made from food that has not been fully digested. They are formed after the thorns swallowed people. There are resentful spirits attached to the beads, so the quality is not good.

These two beads were formed just after eating fish. These fish have been dead for a long time. There is no resentful spirit on the beads, and the quality is excellent.

If you take one of these two pearls out to Green Water Bay, it can be sold for three hundred thousand, which is more valuable than the other six pearls combined!"...
