Chapter 352: Out of the Banana Forest
However, the banana tree was very fragile and could not bear the force at all. Every time the vine was squeezed, a blood mark was left and more red juice flowed out. More unknown sounds followed, and the legs of the large team became heavier and heavier.
The vines didn't dare to move anymore, and the little friend looked solemn. What the hell was going on?
The banana grove was huge. If they had created something to cling to, it would have been fine for short distances, but since it stretched for dozens of miles, it would have taken forever. Even the little flying hawk couldn't fly in the banana grove. Nothing worked, and the entire group froze in place.
I encountered a lot of bad luck when I went out this time. Could it be that I didn’t choose an auspicious day when I went out?
Lan Shiruo frowned. It wouldn't be so strange that she couldn't move for no reason. She leaned against Ao Chengyi and said, "Help me up." She grabbed her legs with both hands and pulled them up.
Ao Chengyi raised his eyebrows and picked up his young wife horizontally. The moment her legs left the mud, he felt a strong resistance, but when he pulled out his legs, there was nothing but mud.
Duan Jianghe also tested the mud and found no special substances in it.
After leaving the mud, Lan Shiruo was able to move her legs slowly.
My friend, squint your eyes, this is the problem with the quagmire.
"Could there be something in the mud?" Miaomiao asked.
"Let me try." Feng Tao rolled up his sleeves and was about to start.
"Wait a minute," He Lian quickly took out a pair of long-sleeved waterproof gloves, "Put these on and be careful."
Feng Tao bared his big white teeth ferociously, his face full of disgust, "How can a grown man be so delicate?" He said with a disgusting tone, but his body was serious, and he reached out to put on the gloves.
He Lian rolled her eyes. She was already used to men who said one thing and meant another.
Feng Tao bent down and stretched out his hands to stir in the mud. He felt nothing at first, but after half a minute, his hands gradually became heavy and he could not exert any strength at all, but he did not touch anything.
Ao Chengyi was sure that there was something in the mud. "Pull it out," he called Guo Zi and Ding Jiajia.
Two people each pulled one side, and the resistance was extremely great.
"What could it be?" Lan Shiruo asked doubtfully.
Ao Chengyi pursed his lips. This thing was silent, so it should be fast and powerful. Now he didn't know if it was aggressive or contained any toxins. "Zhang Yun, can mud be frozen?"
Zhang Yun nodded, "Yes."
"Follow your legs down and freeze the mud within a half-meter radius to see what it is."
Zhang Yun understood, so she used her own legs for the experiment, freezing them downwards quickly. After they were frozen, her friends helped her pull her legs out. A large mass of frozen mud stuck to her legs. Everyone stretched their necks and stared with wide eyes, but they couldn't see what was in the mud.
"That thing ran so fast?" Zhang Yun's freezing was completed in almost one breath. The unidentified object disappeared from the human world at a high speed, without any movement. Isn't this unscientific?
"No," He Lian frowned, "Look more carefully, there seems to be something in the mud."
"Is there?" The little friend moved closer, but didn't see anything.
Lan Shiruo pulled out a magnifying glass. It had been rummaging through the warehouse for a long time, gathering dust in the far corner. Normally, it wasn't needed. She could see something different through the glass, but nothing much. Her friend poked at the frozen mud with a knife, but still found nothing special.
"Run away," the little friend was very disappointed. He was in a bad mood after a series of setbacks. After all, he was considered one of the top 100 in the world, but now he felt so weak that he couldn't bear to look at him.
"No," He Lian was sure. Her vision had evolved and her eyesight was much better than her friends'. She could see the subtle differences in the dark brown mud. "Look here," she used a small knife made of mineral spirits to gently pick up a piece of mud. She picked along the middle and carefully picked around it, revealing a toothpick-sized insect body, only two or three millimeters long. Because it was frozen, it stuck straight up.
The little friends opened their mouths in disbelief, they knew this thing.
"Is this an earthworm?" Miaomiao comes from the countryside. She has been playing with earthworms since she was a child. She uses them to fish and feed chicks. Even when she has no toys left, she still uses them. She is very familiar with them.
It's just that, suddenly appearing here, and appearing in such a weird way, gave her the illusion that her cognition was subverted. When did earthworms become so awesome?
The friend used a magnifying glass to examine it from top to bottom and left to right, confirming that this thing, the same color as the mud and mixed in with the mud, was indistinguishable from mud or a living thing. It was undoubtedly an earthworm. "It's an earthworm, yes, but how can it be so powerful?"
Lan Shiruo raised her eyebrows, "There isn't one, but there are tens of thousands. Besides, after the mutation, who knows what abilities they have awakened. And I think the red banana tree sap also played a significant role. He Lian, can you tell how many are in this pile?" Their eyesight was poor, and only He Lian could distinguish the subtle differences and see the number.
He Lian grabbed Zhang Yun's legs and lifted them towards her.
Zhang Yun, whose ligaments have always been in poor condition, looked at it with a dark face. "I say, can you consider the feelings of me as the carrier? Can't you take it down and study it slowly?" What's the point of hanging it on her legs like this and bending her legs one by one to look at them?
The little friend laughed awkwardly, thinking that he was so focused on watching that he forgot about Zhang Yun. "Oh, thank you for your hard work," Miaomiao took action and broke off the frozen mud. Now He Lian could see it more carefully.
Zhang Yun grinned. Even though she made the ice herself, she still felt cold when it was on her body. It was also because the weather was hot. Otherwise, if she had been dragged by this group of bad friends to look at it for so long, her leg would have been broken.
Guo Zi had been supporting Zhang Yun. He cleared the ice slurry away and quickly reached out to rub her legs. "Are you cold? How about I warm you up by the fire?"
Ao Chengyi is such a brave boy.
Zhang Yun wasn't cold to begin with, but when Guo Zi said this, she shivered with coldness and pinched the soft flesh on Guo Zi's waist. Was she going to die, letting an iceberg warm her? "Hurry up and rub it."
Zhang Yun twisted it, but it didn't hurt. Guo Zi grinned and said, "Hey, lean on me. Don't push too hard. I can hold on. You're more gentle."
Zhang Yun smiled and said, "Silly thing."
My friend rolled his eyes. They were discussing how to survive here, and these two were showing off their love here. Where is their conscience?
Ao Chengyi used fire to melt the ice, and Lan Shiruo washed it with water. After that, they could finally see clearly that it was indeed earthworms, thousands and thousands of them. There were so many of them in such a small bunch, wriggling on the wooden board, some big and some small, as if they were very uneasy after leaving the mud, and they were entangled with each other.
In order to prove that banana tree sap would have an effect on them, the friend got a small bottle and poured it on the wooden board.
In an instant, countless earthworms swarmed in and devoured the juice.
The friend raised an eyebrow and said, "You rely on this for food."
"This sound is the sound that occurs after the juice flows out. It may be a large amount of it wriggling in the mud, making a slightly different sound, but I am very sure this is it." He Lian said.
"If that's the case, we can find a way to leave." Lan Shiruo smiled.
The friend understood after a moment's thought.
