Chapter 34 Jungle Treasure Hunt!
As the two walked deeper into the forest, the towering ancient trees gradually formed a lush green barrier.
Those huge trees that require several people to surround them stand in formation like silent guards. In order to grab more sunlight, they cover the sky like giant umbrellas, with their twisted branches pointing straight to the sky.
The overlapping waves of leaves surged in the air, cutting the golden beams of light into tiny pieces of gold foil. When they fell into the woods, only the mottled spots of light dancing on the moss remained on the ground.
As Chu Ange walked, she always felt that there was some dangerous giant with its mouth wide open, waiting for them to fall into its trap - it was terrifying.
When they walked into the forest, Long Chen had been holding her hand. Feeling her timidity, he said, "I'll carry you on my back."
She was a little scared, but not to the point where she couldn't walk. She shook her head and said, "I can walk by myself."
How can you get a tiger cub without learning the tiger's training?
If there is real danger, just run away immediately.
There are many low shrubs in the forest near the tribe, but in the forest here, those low plants find it difficult to grow on the ground where the sunlight is blocked by giant trees.
There are not only no shrubs but no small trees at all.
Thick leaves are stacked one on top of another, and plants such as ferns, mosses, and mushrooms that do not require much sunlight grow well attached to certain giant trees.
Occasionally you can even see a giant mushroom half a person's height.
In such an environment, there is almost no prey, and people in the tribe naturally will not come here, so it seems very quiet.
Although there are no birds or animals, one can occasionally see some insects as thick as elephant legs arching out from under the thick dead leaves, which is frightening to look at.
After walking for a while, she suddenly discovered that the trees here actually contained a trace of energy.
Chu Ange became more and more convinced that there were good things inside... She quickened her pace and wanted to pass through the woods.
However, this forest seemed endless... I felt like my feet were getting blisters from being rubbed, but I still hadn't reached the end.
Long Chen picked her up by the waist and said, "I'll carry you. I'm fast."
She was really tired, so she stopped trying to be brave and said, "Okay."
As soon as Long Chen picked her up, she felt the wind whistling past her ears... Was he so fast?
The wind made her face hurt, and Chu Ange immediately buried her face in Long Chen's chest and hugged his neck tightly.
After a while, Long Chen stopped, and Chu Ange immediately felt that the energy around her became denser. The energy contained in the trees around her was much higher than that of the previous trees.
Chu Ange had a vague feeling, "This is it." His heart began to beat violently.
However, when she looked around, all she saw were towering, endless trees that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Long Chen stood quietly, closed his eyes and felt carefully for a while, then took a step forward in a certain direction.
They kept walking in this direction, and after a while, they finally came to the end of the vast forest.
At the end of the forest, there is a huge and thick wall. There is a narrow crack in the middle of the wall, which is only wide enough for a person to pass sideways, forming a veritable crack in the sky.
Long Chen carefully put her down, then walked to the front to clear the way, and turned back to remind her: "Follow me closely."
When he turned around, he was surprised to find that her face was filled with excitement and excitement.
"Are you happy?" Long Chen asked curiously.
Chu Ange nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling, and replied: "Yes, it feels like searching for treasure in the jungle."
"Huh!" Long Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud. It's just treasure hunting in the jungle.
So the two continued to walk side by side.
After walking for about another five minutes, the view ahead suddenly became wider, and a huge "sinkhole" appeared in front of them, surrounded by steep and dangerous mountain walls.
They stopped at the entrance. The front was foggy and they couldn't see clearly what was going on.
But they all knew in their hearts that this was the place - the energy here was so abundant!
After a brief pause, the two continued to walk inside.
Because he couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, Chu Ange used his mental power to investigate.
After this investigation, Chu Ange's heart started beating rapidly, as if a deer was hitting it.
In the middle of the bottom of the pot, there grew a silver tree. The tree was not big and had three golden fruits on it. Chu Ange felt a powerful energy from it.
There was a pool of water under the tree, and on the other side of the mountain wall there was a waterfall cascading down like a giant dragon, tumbling and cascading, all the way to the pool of water in the middle of the bottom of the pit.
There are all kinds of plants growing around the pond.
It is spring now, and the flowers are blooming beautifully.
The white fog around, so thick that you can't see the road ahead, is also the energy emitted by this tree.
This must be the treasure they are looking for!
But the fruit is not easy to pick.
Chu Ange finished the investigation with his mental power and found that the reason why his heartbeat accelerated was actually for another reason - there were densely packed mutated giant grubs gathered under the tree.
Commonly known as chicken worm, also called earth silkworm and old mother worm.
These grubs are very, very large, with a brown head, a prominent upper jaw, three pairs of legs on the chest, and an overall white color.
They surrounded the tree, layer upon layer, almost filling the bottom of this actually very spacious basin.
To what horrific degree have these grubs mutated... Most of them are three meters long and forty to fifty centimeters wide, and some of them are as long as eight or nine meters and one meter wide!
Those very large grubs had energy reactions on them.
There is no doubt that after staying in a place full of energy for a long time, they have undergone mutations and are completely different from ordinary grubs.
Chu Ange knew that the animals and plants here were different from those on Earth and were extremely large. Even so, he still felt his scalp tingling when he saw so many huge grubs.
This natural treasure is not easy to obtain...
These grubs were entangled with each other, and those that were smaller could only wander around the periphery, and some even swam into the pool.
The larger ones are closer to the tree.
Chu Ange frowned, thinking hard about how to get close to the tree to pick the fruit. Suddenly, an extremely huge, fifteen-meter-long grub crawled in from the entrance of the narrow gap.
It seems that it went out to eat the humus outside, and now it is full and comes back to absorb energy.
White grubs, invertebrate insects, like to live in soft and moist soil. They hide in the soil during the day and feed at night.
The largest white grubs on Earth are only a few centimeters in size. They like to eat newly planted seeds, roots, tubers and seedlings. They are a global underground pest.
But some types of grubs can be used as medicine and are beneficial to humans.
