Chapter 561 An unexpected discovery
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wen left Luoyang and rode a Chi beast towards Zhuolu.
He had been to Zhuolu once before, so he naturally remembered the way. However, compared with the last time he went there, the chance of seeing people in areas outside the city was lower.
Many national highways have been abandoned, and lush vegetation can be seen everywhere on the roadside.
Unless there is a large convoy or a pet transport team passing by, it is rare to see solo travelers.
Zhou Wen also encountered some forbidden creatures on the way. Although they were not very strong and were only at the legendary level, this made Zhou Wen even more uneasy.
As the creatures that break the ban become lower in level, it is likely that the ban effect of the dimensional field will become weaker and weaker. Wang Mingyuan said that the dimensional field will be completely unbanned in ten years at most, and now it seems that he was not empty talk.
Chi runs very fast. Although it is not as comfortable as riding in a car, it can traverse complex terrain and is not as easily restricted as a car.
Now many roads have been destroyed by dimensional creatures, and it is becoming increasingly difficult for cars to drive outside the city.
There are also many vines and other plants covering the road. Except for some sections where convoys often pass by, it is difficult to ensure the smooth flow of traffic on the road.
Zhou Wen was not afraid of being tired and kept traveling day and night. On the third day, he set up a tent in a place and planned to take a nap.
Although he is full of energy and vitality, the human body will still feel a little unwell if it does not sleep for a long time.
Because the convoy would not pass by where Zhou Wen was going, there were hardly any people on the road. This was also a mountain road, so the chance of running into people was even lower.
Zhou Wen set up his tent on a platform beside the road. It happened to be open here, with cliffs next to it and no obstacles. If any strange creatures appeared, they could be discovered in advance.
After summoning his companion pets, including Six Wings, Banana Fairy and Dark Doctor, and having them guard him, Zhou Wen was able to sleep peacefully.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Wen was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up by a pair of small hands.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the Banana Fairy patting his face with its little hands. Seeing that Zhou Wen woke up, the Banana Fairy took Zhou Wen's hand and pointed outside the tent.
"What happened?" Zhou Wen asked the Banana Fairy.
The Banana Fairy was babbling, but Zhou Wen couldn't understand what she was saying, which made him feel depressed. After all, she was a mythical pet, but after so long, she couldn't even learn simple human language.
Zhou Wen had no choice but to get up and leave the tent. Liu Yi was actually sleeping outside the tent, and he looked like he was sleeping even more soundly than Zhou Wen.
The Dark Doctor was standing at the door of the tent, looking completely expressionless, as if he was in a daze.
"These two guys are not as reliable as the Banana Fairy." Zhou Wen thought to himself.
The Banana Fairy was flying in the air on a banana leaf, pointing his finger at the bottom of the cliff, babbling as if he wanted to tell Zhou Wen something.
Zhou Wen walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down. Under the moonlight, he saw something glowing in the forest below.
The light flickered in a very regular pattern, unlike a firefly. Firstly, fireflies shouldn't be that big and bright, and secondly, Zhou Wen had never heard of a firefly flashing red light.
Looking from above, it feels like a red warning light is flashing below.
"What on earth is that down there? A dimensional creature?" Although Zhou Wen had good eyesight, he couldn't see what the red light was from such a distance.
The Banana Fairy pulled Zhou Wen, then flew downwards, as if wanting Zhou Wen to go down with her to take a look.
Zhou Wen quickly grabbed Bajiaoxian. The world was too scary now. Many unknown things could cause people to die inexplicably. It was not that Zhou Wen did not have curiosity, but even with curiosity he could not risk his life.
After holding onto the Banana Fairy, Zhou Wen summoned a dozen poisonous bats and asked them to fly down and take a look.
A dozen poisonous bats quickly flew into the forest below the cliff, tearing apart the trees and vines, making the red light clearer.
Zhou Wen switched to the Eight Degrees Prajna, enhancing his vision. He could vaguely see that there seemed to be a red object glowing in the soil of the woods. Because the object was buried in the soil, with only a small part exposed, Zhou Wen could not tell what it was.
He ordered the poisonous bats to dig the soil near the thing. A dozen poisonous bats lay on the ground, inserted their claws into the soil covered with fallen leaves, and dug up all the soil.
Seeing that the thing had not reacted at all, Zhou Wen breathed a sigh of relief, but he still did not dare to be careless. He kept staring at the thing and the poisonous bat, so that if the poisonous bat had any abnormal reaction, he could respond immediately.
Fortunately, the situation Zhou Wen expected did not happen. After a while, a dozen poisonous bats dug a big hole and the thing was also dug out.
However, looking down from above, you can only see a large red ball with a diameter of more than four meters, flashing and shining, but you still can't tell what it is.
Before confirming what that thing was, Zhou Wen didn't dare let the poisonous bat touch it. After thinking about it, he packed up the tent and other things, then called Liu Yi to fly down the cliff together.
Seen from the side, it really is a big ball, looking like jade, half buried in the soil. The light inside is constantly changing, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, so when viewed from a distance, it appears to be twinkling, but in fact it is always glowing.
"Dimensional creature? It doesn't look like one. A companion egg doesn't look like one either. What on earth is this thing?" Zhou Wen looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was.
The banana fairy on the side seemed unable to help himself, flew above the red ball, then jumped off the banana leaf and landed on top of the red ball.
I saw her jumping on the red ball a few times, and then there was a pop sound, and the red ball actually cracked.
Zhou Wen was startled, but it was too late to stop it. Fortunately, nothing dangerous happened after the red ball split. Instead, it turned into a flower.
The jade-like outer shells were actually its petals. After opening layer by layer, the pink stamens inside were revealed, and the things that were glowing were the stamens.
As soon as the flower opened, Zhou Wen could immediately smell a rich fragrance. With the blessing of the Eight Degrees of Prajna, he felt that the fragrance was particularly refreshing and relaxed.
The Banana Fairy had already landed in the pistil. It grabbed a pollen grain with its little hand and put it into its mouth, swallowing it quickly as if it were a marshmallow.
There was a lot of pollen in the flower. The Banana Fairy ate one, then grabbed another in each hand and stuffed them into his little mouth, filling his cheeks up.
