Chapter 206 Is there such a possibility...
"Unowned incense?"
Ji Ruo's eyes widened: "Are you sure you didn't perceive it wrongly?"
This place is the nest of white ants, where does the incense come from? !
"No, otherwise I can't get out..." The white cat sensed it carefully, and then said uncertainly: "It seems to have an owner, but that guy seems unable to absorb it, so when you just came here, the accumulated incense was absorbed by me.
The faith in this incense is extremely strong and pure, and it only belongs to Rosie."
When Luo Xi heard her name, she said dazedly, "Meow~ (What's wrong with me?)"
The smell here is extremely pungent. Ant monsters have no olfactory organs, so of course they don't care about it. Ji Ruo and others are warriors, their breath is long, and internal breathing is also their basic skill, so it is not particularly unbearable.
But Rosie is different. This little fellow has been in a state of extreme hunger since her last evolution. She is very sensitive to this aspect, so she is seriously affected.
"How about I turn you into a card and put you away?" Ji Ruo rubbed Luo Xi's head with some heartache: "If you turn into a card, you won't be able to smell it."
"Meow~ (No, I want to accompany my master...yue~)"
Ji Ruo felt both amused and distressed. He ignored Luo Xi's resistance and forcibly put it into the card collection book. Then he said, "Dabai, take me to see where the ownerless incense came from."
"Okay, Master, follow me."
The white cat thought for a moment and said, "By the way, Master, I have a vague feeling that a name seems to be very important to my current situation. Have you helped me think of a name?"
"How important is it?"
"I don't know either, but I have a vague feeling that once we have an official name, we can't change it."
Ji seemed to be thinking about something.
But now is not the time to think about this, Ji Ruo said: "I know, I will give you a name as soon as possible."
"Yes, thank you, Master."
Then, under the guidance of the white cat, Ji Ruo walked cautiously deeper into the nest.
Demon biology explains it very clearly: inside the ant nest, inside the supply storage room is where the ant queen stays.
For ants, the most important thing is naturally the queen ant, followed by food.
…
After a while, Ji Ruo saw the huge ant queen. The part that Ji Ruo could see was more than ten meters high, and the ground was covered with insect eggs the size of watermelons.
Ji Ruo held his breath and concentrated, leaning against the wall, his mind tense.
The white cat flew over to take a look, then came back and whispered, "Don't worry, master. This old ant is sleeping."
"sleep?"
Ji Ruo breathed a sigh of relief.
The queen ant is huge because its main function is to reproduce, and its energy is mainly supplied to this aspect, so its limbs...oh no, ants have many limbs.
In short, this guy has devoted himself to strengthening his race, and his hands and feet have degenerated. He is huge and has difficulty moving. He usually eats raw food and sleeps when he is tired.
"Go on."
"good."
Afterwards, under the guidance of the white cat, Ji Ruo came to a small side room next to the Queen Ant's room.
"How come there is something like this here?"
Ji Ruo was very surprised.
In the side room, there is a simple altar.
There were three pieces of paper taped to the wall, with the names and birth dates of the three murdered villagers written on them. Under the papers were three small incense burners, each with three incense sticks. Perhaps because the air was so thin deep underground, the nine incense sticks were burning weakly and were about to go out.
Ji Ruo was wondering, suddenly——
A stream of green smoke condensed into the appearance of Niu Dabao, and rushed towards Ji Ruo viciously, roaring:
"Why didn't you save me! Why didn't you save me!"
"I can survive! I can live!"
"My wife and children are waiting for me at home!!!"
Ji Ruo had never thought that such a thing would appear, and was horrified: "What the hell!"
He slapped out with his palm subconsciously.
The palm passed through the face of the smoky man, but failed to hurt him at all.
The green smoke dispersed and gathered again, and Niu Dabao's expression became even more vicious, and the hatred in his eyes was so strong that it seemed real.
At the critical moment, the white cat suddenly had an idea. He glared at her and said in a sweet voice, "Calm down! We didn't hurt you!"
The divine power of the incense turned into words and hit Niu Dabao's green body.
The green smoke stopped for a moment, and Niu Dabao's eyes became clear again.
"It's not you..."
He murmured, and then said in a hurry: "I remember you! You are the college student who came to our village before! Have you seen Xiaoli? Is he still alive? Tell me!"
Ji Ruo took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Niu. Student Niu Li is fine now. With the Holy Statue here, the children were not injured in the beast attack two days ago, and the people in the village only suffered minor injuries..."
"It's all right, it's all right, it's all right..."
Niu Dabao breathed a sigh of relief, his face showing a mixture of relief and disappointment.
"Unfortunately, I can't go back..."
Ji Ruo asked, "Uncle Niu, how did you become like this? Who built this altar?"
"How did I become like this?" Niu Dabao's eyes were blank for a moment, and then he became extremely angry and lost his mind again: "Why didn't you save me! Why didn't you save me!"
Seeing this, Ji Ruo was just about to ask the white cat to calm Niu Dabao down, but the incense sticks under Niu Dabao burned out at this moment, and Niu Dabao disappeared.
The white cat said, "Master, if the person who built this altar and the person who worshipped them are the same person, then I think I know who it is. The incense I just absorbed contains that person's beliefs and wishes..."
"Who are you?"
A strange voice sounded in Ji Ruo's mind. Before Ji Ruo realized that something was wrong, he asked, "Yes, tell me who it is..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ji Ruo froze.
At this moment, Ji Ruo felt a chill down his spine and broke out in a cold sweat.
He turned his head stiffly, revealing an ugly smile: "Your Majesty, you are awake..."
Just now, because he saw things underground that theoretically should not appear, and also met Niu Dabao who had been dead for a long time, the amount of information was so great that Ji Ruo almost forgot his current situation.
Niu Dabao made so much noise that he woke up the ant queen...
At this moment, the Queen Ant's head, which was totally disproportionate to her body, had almost been attached to Ji Ruo - even though it was disproportionate, her head was almost as tall as Ji Ruo, her skin was white and tender, and her six dark eyes on her face each revealed a look of curiosity and doubt. ωωw. cascoo
"Who are you?" The Ant Queen asked again. Although her lips were not moving, her voice echoed strangely in Ji Ruo's mind: "Why do you call me Her Majesty?"
The Ant Queen was curious and puzzled. In her eyes, Ji Ruo was very much like her child, but not completely like her. He was a little different...
It feels like your child used to be very well-behaved, but suddenly one day, the well-behaved child put on moccasins and small pants, walked with his hands swinging outward, and started speaking social quotations...
What a huge change!
Ji Ruo's mind raced, and he quickly said, "I am your child!"
He raised his hand and knocked on his helmet twice, saying, "Look, this hard exoskeleton of mine was created by you!"
"It seems so..." The Ant Queen was a little confused: "I gave birth to too many children, I can't remember clearly, but why do you look like this? It's so strange, my descendants don't seem to look like this..."
At this point, Ji Ruo could only bite the bullet and say, "Look, this is it. Is it possible that I have changed?"
…
