Chapter 107
Jiang Zhi was startled.
A purple-gold item?!
This was the first time she had ever seen something of a higher level than a gold item.
Most importantly, the dashboard didn't even mention the function of this purple-gold item.
Jiang Zhi suddenly remembered that the scene when she encountered that white light in Shashi was somewhat similar to what was happening now.
There were no notifications indicating that it was not working.
This is likely beyond the current level of the dashboard, so no prompt can be given.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhi's heart started to race.
Then, a sound came from Jiangzhi's dashboard again:
"Beep—Air sac hydra, ultra-high-level mutated creature, ultra-high-level mutated creature, be on alert! Be on alert!"
Jiang Zhi was stunned.
Ultra-high level...
The dashboard didn't even report a specific level, proving that this airbag hydra was far stronger than Jiang Zhi.
As expected, the mutated creatures that can produce purple-gold items are no pushovers.
At this moment, Jiang Shu spoke up: "What's wrong, Azhi? Is it dangerous inside?"
Jiang Zhi hesitated for a moment before clearing her throat and saying slowly, "It's not that scary...we have a tortoise shell in our hands, don't we?"
Never mind, fortune favors the bold!
Jiang Zhi gritted her teeth—the good stuff was right in front of her, and since she was already here, she couldn't bear not going in to take a look.
Moreover, she suspected that there was something inside that could make the mutated plants evolve rapidly.
In just six months, the number of mutated plants marked in red on the dashboard increased dramatically.
Such a change would not have occurred without special circumstances.
Despite her thoughts, Jiang Zhi still gave her brother plenty of precautions just to be safe.
"Brother, there are many high-level mutated plants inside, and they are all aggressive. When we go in, you'll have to follow my instructions."
Jiang Shu immediately nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
After agreeing on their plan, the two continued walking forward.
The deeper you go, the narrower the gaps between the rock walls become.
The two had no choice but to hunch over and squeeze into the narrow crevice that could barely accommodate one person.
The occasional wet droplets from the rock face touched my cheeks, carrying a chilling sensation.
Especially the tall and strong Jiang Shu, whose back was almost pressed against the rough stone wall, could be heard rustling as his clothes rubbed against the rocks with every movement, which was particularly clear in the empty cave.
Jiang Zhi didn't know how long she had walked forward when she suddenly saw a sliver of light before her eyes.
After squeezing forward two more steps, my body suddenly felt lighter—I had finally reached the cave entrance.
The warm air, carrying an indescribable mixture of sweet, fishy, and putrid odors, entered the noses of the brother and sister.
The cave of the mutated snake that Jiang Zhi had seen before was now completely filled with red mutated rosy flowers the size of footballs.
The mutated crimson flower was strikingly red, a red unlike the vibrant red of ordinary flowers, but rather like congealed blood, hanging heavily on the branches.
The pom-pom of the red tassel flower was originally made up of countless slender red filaments, but now, each one looks as red as if it had been quenched with blood.
The top is slightly forked, like countless snake tongues clustered together, which makes people's scalp tingle.
Jiang Zhi acted decisively and activated the tortoise shell protective shield.
Sure enough, as the two carefully passed by these red tassel flowers, the red stamens that were clustered into balls suddenly tightened, and the forks at the top suddenly opened, like countless venomous snakes sticking out their tongues at the same time!
Just as they were about to hit the two people, the shield flashed with a "hum," blocking the attack of the filigree.
Jiang Shu was startled by the sudden and fierce attack and almost tripped.
Seeing that the filaments couldn't hurt him, he cursed under his breath, "This thing is even more ferocious than a snake!"
Jiang Zhi's face was somewhat solemn. This was only a level four mutated plant, yet its aggressiveness was already so strong. It seemed that the situation inside would only be more dangerous.
"Brother, keep an eye out. If any of the mutated plants look strange, let me know in advance."
The ginger tree's special ability can effectively compensate for the lack of visibility of objects on the dashboard.
Even low-level mutated plants should not be underestimated in this place.
Jiang Shu gave an "OK" sign.
After discussing some details, the two left the cave.
As soon as I stepped outside, a damp smell hit me.
The temperature displayed on the dashboard rose rapidly.
Jiang Zhi glanced at it.
I never expected the temperature inside to be as high as 35 degrees Celsius.
The humid air felt like a sticky film wrapped around my body, making me feel suffocated.
Looking back at the cave entrance, just a step away, it was still cold and damp inside, with water droplets condensing on the stone walls still radiating a chill, as if two worlds had been forcibly cleaved apart.
The two had felt freezing cold in the cave, but now it felt like they had fallen into a steamer. The contrast between the extremes of ice and fire left them speechless.
Jiang Shu couldn't help but take off his hat. "This is too outrageous. What kind of place is this? It's completely unaffected by the cold wave."
Jiang Zhi wiped her sweat, her gaze sweeping over the enclosed rock walls and the dense plant dome overhead. "Look around here, it's like an airtight iron box. The wind can't get in, so even if there is an impact, it's limited."
This place has changed dramatically compared to six months ago.
The variety of plants has increased dramatically, and many of them are rare and unusual things that I've never seen before.
The bushes grew wildly; what used to be waist-high shrubs were now almost shoulder-high, and the vines were as thick as buckets.
These plants completely obscured the lake that Jiang Zhi had previously seen; it was unclear whether they had dried it up or simply blocked it out.
"Brother, get the bone stick out. Don't let those weird bugs get close."
In such a densely populated environment, we must minimize the consumption of mental energy.
Jiang Shu responded, holding a bone stick in one hand and the mutated cat paw that the base had given him in the other.
After they both took their weapons, they walked inside one after the other.
Each step forward was blocked by the leaves of several mutated plants.
The two cautiously probed forward.
The decaying leaves underfoot made a dull "plop" sound as they were trampled.
Jiang Shu led the way, wielding a bone club. The club swept across the ferns, startling the beetles hiding under the leaves, which buzzed and flew up, their dark green shells brushing past his ear.
If it weren't for the protective shield, we would have been in trouble again.
Soon, several giant konjac plants appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
Several thick flower stems support the funnel-shaped, dark purple spathe.
From the brother and sister's perspective, they could see the cloudy juice inside through the slightly curled edges.
A fleshy inflorescence extends from inside the bud, with a conical appendage at the top, giving it a somewhat eerie appearance. Jiang Zhi even imagined the stench of decay inside.
Each leaf was as big as a small bed that was 1.5 meters long.
This should be the same species that Gou An's warriors fought before, only its level is not as high, and it has not yet evolved any special abilities.
Jiang Zhi was delighted to learn that the root and stem of konjac are edible after processing. The leaves, which are quite large, can also be used as a moisture-proofing material for mattresses or similar items.
"Brother, the konjac we're seeing up ahead isn't very high quality, shall we take some back with us?"
When it comes to food, Jiang Shu has no objections.
"Okay, I'll dig it up. Just remember to hold the shell tight, okay? My life is in your hands now."
As Jiang Shu spoke, he carefully walked over. Just as he got close, the cone-shaped appendage suddenly contracted and expanded, and half of the venom in the flower bud below disappeared, as if it were sucking out a straw.
Jiang Shuxin was startled and quickly took a few steps back. Immediately afterward, a large amount of corrosive liquid sprayed out from the konjac flower's appendages, like a showerhead, with an extremely wide attack range.
The corrosive liquid, the size of raindrops, immediately made a "sizzling" sound when it touched the surrounding plants.
The surrounding fern leaves were instantly charred and perforated, curling up into a ball.
The vines that were watered also peeled off a layer of green skin, and the wood-like interior was corroded and pitted.
A pungent, sour smell filled the air, and even the protective shield seemed to become slightly hot from the odor.
Jiang Shu's eyes widened, and he stammered, "A-A-Zhi, why do I feel... these mutated plants are much more terrifying than mutated beasts?"
Jiang Zhi's face was also a little pale.
Since the cataclysm, after all living things have mutated, they rarely go to places where mutated plants are dense.
The greatest danger they face also comes from mutated beasts.
This was the first time they had ever experienced firsthand how troublesome the mutated plants were.
Those unpredictable attack methods are simply impossible to defend against.
If it weren't for Jiang Zhi's strong mental power, she really wouldn't dare to stay here any longer.
Just resisting the corrosive liquid had already consumed a lot of my mental energy.
Jiang Zhi: "Brother, I'll use my mental power to control these konjac plants. Find a chance to cut off all their flower buds!"
"Alright!" Jiang Shu gripped the cat's paw tightly, his eyes sharpening.
Jiang Zhi immediately focused her mind, and several invisible spiritual energies, like supple silk threads, precisely wrapped around the flower stems and spathes of those taro plants.
The next second, the flowers that were about to twist and spray liquid froze instantly.
Jiang Shu seized the opportunity, rushed over quickly, flipped his wrist, and used his sharp cat claws to slash at the flower stem, making several deep cuts. Then, he flicked upwards, severing the heavy flower bud along with part of the stem.
With a few "plop" sounds, the huge flower buds fell to the ground, and sticky corrosive liquid mixed with juices flowed all over the ground, burning sizzling marks on the ground.
After several repetitions, Jiang Shu repeated the same actions and finished off all five konjac plants in front of him.
In an instant, the stench of corrosive liquid filled the dense mutated plants.
To save time, the brother and sister moved very quickly.
Jiang Zhi quickly withdrew her mental energy.
The ginger tree in front had already taken out a folding shovel and was digging hard at the base of the flower stem.
The soft, damp soil beneath their feet was turned up, quickly revealing round tubers covered in brown skin.
"Drip—Highly toxic, not for consumption."
Jiang Shu twitched his mouth and continued testing the next one.
"Drip—Highly toxic, not for consumption."
Ginger Tree: ...
Is he really that unlucky?
Jiang Zhi, who was behind, couldn't stand it anymore and squatted down as well: "Brother, please step aside, I'll do it."
Jiang Shu snorted defiantly, "It must be because there's nothing to eat here, it's definitely not because I'm unlucky!"
Jiang Zhi was too lazy to argue with him, so she took the folding shovel from his hand and started digging into the soil next to her.
The tubers of this konjac are large and numerous, each about the size of a washbasin, covered with a brown skin, and look somewhat like potatoes.
A small piece of ginger was dug out. "Drip—moderate toxin, can be consumed in moderation."
Her eyes lit up: "I won!"
Jiang Shu: ...This slap in the face was both swift and painful.
She quickly cut off the fibrous roots and deftly dug out the entire konjac tuber.
He shook off the dirt and stuffed it into his backpack.
Next, Jiangzhi dug out more than ten konjac plants of varying sizes, most of which were moderately toxic, while two smaller ones were low in toxicity.
Jiang Zhi smiled broadly: "We can change our staple food for the next few days."
Jiang Shu watched from the side, his hands itching to dig up a few more pieces, but remembering his previous bad luck, he reluctantly withdrew his hand.
"Ah Zhi, stop looking for these starchy things all the time, find something else new and interesting."
Jiang Zhi collected all the edible konjac before standing up.
"What's the rush? We're only just getting started."
She scanned the area with the dashboard and found that the mutated plants were distributed in a very regular pattern. The plants near the rock walls were of relatively lower level, while the closer to the southwest, the higher the level of the mutated plants and the stronger their aggression.
Recalling the layout of this place six months ago, she suddenly spoke up: "Brother, can you help me see if there's a lake in the southwest direction?"
Jiang Shu looked in that direction, scanning it several times: "Are you sure it's southwest? I don't see it."
Jiang Zhi pondered for a moment before saying, "It's probably been invaded by plants..."
She couldn't find the warning sign for the super-advanced mutated plant on her dashboard. She had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
Ultimately, it can only be attributed to the fact that her dashboard did not cover the entire area, so she had to be more careful in all directions.
"Never mind, it's still early. Let's search the cliff face and see if there's anything edible to take back." As she spoke, she couldn't help but remind him again, "Brother, remember, if you see any strange plants, be sure to tell me in advance."
"knew."
Jiang Shu responded, clearly sensing that his younger sister intended to stay there for a while, and couldn't help but ask, "A-Zhi, can your mental strength last that long?"
Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't act tough at a time like this."
Ever since that ball of white light entered her body, her mental strength has increased dramatically, and her mental pool has also expanded considerably.
Jiang Zhi plans to go to the research institute again to retest when she has the chance, to see what level she has reached now.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shu felt relieved.
The brother and sister packed up their tools and headed back towards the rock face along the path they had just taken. Two shallow tracks were left on the layer of decaying leaves. Jiang Shu led the way, using a bone stick to sweep away the ferns blocking their path. Occasionally, he would startle a few winged insects, which he would then shoo away with the stick.
Near the rock face, there were even more reptiles, and wherever the two of them went, a large number of them crawled away.
Everywhere you look, you can see bromeliads and maidenhair ferns, and every now and then you can see purplish-red mutated orchids growing on the rock walls.
The brother and sister spent more than two hours slowly exploring the area and found that although the small world was not very big, the variety of mutated plants was unbelievable.
Not long after walking, Jiangzhi was pleasantly surprised to see several large banyan trees.
She had only seen this kind of tree on TV before when she watched a documentary about tropical rainforests.
I never expected to run into you here.
The leaves are perfectly heart-shaped, smooth on the front and easy to touch, while the back is covered with a layer of fine fuzz. The fruit looks like a fig, but it tastes much sweeter and is several times larger. Clusters of them are crowded on the trunk, bright red and tempting to look at.
"Brother! Hurry, there's work to be done!!"
Jiang Shu perked up. "What is that?"
"See that fruit over there? It's a steamed bun fruit, and it's edible! Plus, I've heard it tastes pretty good!"
Looking along the ginger branch, one could see that the trunks were densely covered with red berries, with a dozen or so in a single bunch, huddled together among the branches, and even the thick trunks were bulging with several clusters of them.
Each one was as red as a ripe little lantern.
Even from this distance, the ginger tree could smell a faint fragrance of figs.
His eyes widened.
"so much!?"
Jiang Zhi suppressed her excitement and warned, "Be careful of the parasitic rootless vines above; they will launch sonic attacks by screaming."
The screaming vines that were previously displayed on the dashboard are these parasitic vines.
Jiang Shu's face turned ashen when he saw it.
The parasitic vines covered the entire tree, like a tangled mess. Some were as thin as shoelaces, while others were as thick as a wrist.
Many of them dangled among the branches, their scattered tendrils hanging down, looking like slimy, long worms crawling all over the tree.
Jiang Shu felt uncomfortable looking at it: "The tree is covered with vines, how can we pick them?"
Jiang Zhi also found it somewhat tricky.
You can look up and see the trees full of red and green fruits.
The fruits were so plump they looked like they were about to ooze honey, densely covering the branches, filling the air with a sweet fragrance. She was simply unwilling to give them up.
"Let's test the attack power of these parasitic vines first."
As Jiang Zhi spoke, she prepared to pick up a pebble from the ground and throw it over.
"Brother, I'll use my mental power to plug your ears later. Don't resist. If those vines make too much noise and you really can't take it, just shout."
Jiang Shu nodded nervously.
Once she was ready, Jiang Zhi took a deep breath, then flicked her wrist, and the pebble flew "whoosh" toward the nearest vine.
With a "smack," it hit the parasitic vine in front of the banyan tree.
The parasitic vine immediately twitched like a scalded snake, a small bluish-black bulge appearing at its node. Immediately afterward, a piercing scream exploded—like a piece of iron scraping glass, or like countless fine needles piercing the brain, sharp and shrill.
Jiang Shu felt as if his eardrums were being pricked by needles. Even with Jiang Zhi's mental power blocking it, the scream still made his temples throb.
He groaned and instinctively covered his ears.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhi quickly increased her mental defenses.
Jiang Shu immediately felt as if a thick barrier had been erected around his ears by the spiritual power, and he was no longer affected by the sound waves from the parasitic vines.
I was just about to breathe a sigh of relief.
The next second, the entire tree of parasitic vines began to hiss simultaneously, as if a switch had been flipped.
Countless shrill cries intertwined, pressing down on one's chest, making it feel suffocating, as if even the air itself was trembling.
At the same time, the pink flower buds that had bloomed in the bushes not far away suddenly closed up, shrinking into small balls.
Several mutated plants, about half a person's height and with serrated leaves, suddenly shrank their stems downwards like startled insects, quickly retracting most of their bodies back into the soil, leaving only a few withered leaves sticking out.
Even the unknown vines crawling on the ground rustled and coiled around the tree roots, as if the shrill whistle was some kind of death warrant.
Several low-level mutated plants in the distance suddenly exploded with a "pop," their emerald green sap mixed with debris splattering everywhere, and they died instantly.
Jiang Zhi frowned and added several more layers of protection for her brother. Seeing that his mental energy was being consumed very quickly, Jiang Zhi had no choice but to take out a few Speed Yuan Cakes from her spatial device and stuff them into her mouth.
About ten minutes later, the screaming of the vines gradually stopped.
Jiang Shu slowly removed his hands from his ears, and only breathed a sigh of relief after finding that there was no real threat.
He paused for a while, his face still pale, his voice hoarse from just recovering from the shrieking: "Azhi, let's go. No matter how good the fruit is, you have to be alive to eat it. These monsters have no sense of justice; if you encounter one, a whole horde will come. Forget about picking them; if we stay here for even a few more minutes, we'll probably lose half our lives."
Even though Jiang Zhi was unwilling, after experiencing the power of the Screaming Vine, she had no choice but to give up.
It's no wonder it's a level 5 mutated plant; even she struggles to keep up with its group attack.
She pursed her lips and withdrew her mental protective energy. "Let's go, let's bypass this area and look southwest."
She knew exactly where the red warning dots were on the dashboard, but the purple-gold item and the ultra-high-level mutated plant seemed to have vanished into thin air; she couldn't even see a trace of them.
Where exactly is it...?
Jiang Zhi gazed at the dense forest ahead, her heart heavy with a complex mix of emotions. On one hand, a nameless unease lingered, while on the other, a burning desire to find it burned within her. These two conflicting forces caused her brows to furrow involuntarily.
The two tacitly avoided the large tree covered with parasitic vines, their footsteps extremely light.
After getting a little away from the parasitic vines, Jiang Shu couldn't help but mutter, "These mutated plants around here are all sentient; they all ran away faster than we did. But the fruits of that big-fruited banyan tree, despite all that commotion, were completely unaffected..."
As soon as Jiang Shu finished speaking, Jiang Zhi suddenly stopped in her tracks, grasping at something that had been overlooked.
"Brother, wait...you just said that the big banyan tree wasn't affected?"
Jiang Shu was taken aback by her reaction and scratched his head: "Huh? What did I just say... Oh right, that's what it is."
He looked bewildered. "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Jiang Zhi's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement: "Brother, I know how to pick these fruits!"
Jiang Shu was even more confused. "Huh? How do I pick it?"
"This vine is called the Screaming Vine, also known as the Parasitic Vine. Since it's a parasitic relationship, these vines definitely won't harm the host. That's why the sonic attack just now didn't affect the Banyan Tree."
"In that case, what if we had a fruit or a branch of the large-fruited fig in our hands?"
Jiang Shu's eyes lit up. "That's right! Ah Zhi, you're so quick-witted. How come I didn't think of that?"
Jiang Zhi laughed and said, "Let's take one more risk. If it works, great. If not... we'll give up completely and take a detour."
“Okay!” Jiang Shu nodded immediately, rubbing his hands together eagerly. “Shall we go find some banyan branches now? I saw a lot of aerial roots hanging from the tree on the far right. It shouldn’t be too hard to pluck a few, right?”
“Aerial roots probably won’t work; we’ll need branches with some leaves, or…” Jiang Zhi paused, glancing back at the tree, “There seem to be a few ripe fruits that have fallen under that tree; picking those would be easier.”
Jiang Shu immediately realized, "Right, right, the fruit is easier to carry! Let's go back and look for it."
The two of them got right to work.
Jiang Zhi quickly re-enchanted the two with her mental energy, and then carefully moved towards the large banyan tree.
She tried to avoid the parasitic vines hanging from the branches, reached out and picked a few fruits that had fallen to the bottom, and quickly broke off two branches with leaves.
Inevitably, they encountered the parasitic vines again along the way, and the shrill screams began to fill the air once more.
Surprisingly, this time, Jiang Zhi was not affected at all.
On the contrary, Jiang Shu behind him, even with the protective barrier, was still shaken so badly that he saw stars.
Jiangzhi quickly handed half of the branches and fruit in her hands to her brother.
Jiang Shu was thus spared from disaster.
He paused for a moment, then quickly recovered, a look of surprise on his face.
"Ah Zhi, it really works!"
Jiang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "It really works."
She waved the branch in her hand, "Hurry up, let's pick as many as we can while we have time."
The two stopped hiding and went straight under the branches laden with red fruit.
The parasitic vines were still emitting a buzzing, shrill sound that could pierce eardrums.
But that's how amazing it is.
The two could clearly hear the screams, but it was as if there was an invisible wall blocking them; no matter how loud the noise was, it couldn't reach them.
The brother and sister got to work quickly and efficiently.
Jiang Zhi walked to the trunk of one of the large banyan trees, whose branches were densely covered with red fruits. She didn't even miss some of the unripe green fruits.
"Drip—Highly toxic, not for consumption."
"Drip - Moderate toxicity, can be consumed in moderation."
"Drip - Moderate toxicity, can be consumed in moderation."
"Drip—low level of toxin, edible."
After inspecting several piles of fruit hanging on the tree trunks, it was found that most of them were edible.
To save time, Jiang Zhi spread her fingers and grabbed several fruits at the same time, flicking them down so that a string of fruits fell into her palm.
The newly sprouted tender leaves beside it curled up at the edges, so tender they were almost green, with a hint of pale yellow at the tips. Jiang Zhi casually plucked two leaves, and as soon as his fingertips touched them, he smelled a faint, fresh scent of tender leaves.
After examining the tender leaves, she stuffed them into the cloth bag at her waist, then turned to look at the ginger tree: "Brother, pick some tender leaves with dew on them too, they can be eaten."
"Alright!"
Jiang Shu was thoroughly enjoying the testing, and the satisfaction of his findings kept him smiling.
He tiptoed again to reach the bunch of red berries above his head. There must have been at least a dozen berries in that bunch. He carefully gathered the berries in one hand and shoved them into the cloth bag at his waist. The soft "thump-thump" sound of the berries falling, mixed with the continuous shrieking of the parasitic vines, created a strange sense of peace.
In less than half an hour, both of their cloth bags were bulging. They were completely full.
The sweet aroma of the red berries mixed with the bitter taste of the tender leaves was particularly enticing. Jiang Zhi couldn't resist taking out a berry with low levels of toxins, rubbing it on her clothes, and then taking a bite.
The thick red sauce dripped down between my fingers, carrying a refreshing, sweet fragrance.
She didn't bother to wipe her hands, brought the juice to her lips and sucked it gently. The juice slid down her throat, like having a mouthful of melted honey, but with an added layer of refreshing fruity acidity, not cloying at all.
It does taste like fig, but it's a hundred times sweeter.
Jiang Zhi was overjoyed—to be able to pick such fresh fruit in this weather was a huge bonus!
Jiang Shu smelled the aroma and, seeing his younger sister eating it, quickly found one and popped it into his mouth.
The smell made him involuntarily grunt.
He mumbled through his mouth, "This stuff... is delicious! It's sweet and a little sour, Mom will definitely love it!"
The two of them ate one in a few bites, their palms sticky with fruit juice, and every lick was sweet.
As Jiang Zhi savored the refreshing sweet and sour taste, she suddenly realized something was wrong.
—The mental energy I had just used up seemed to be supported by something, and the previously empty mental pool rippled slightly, with a warm feeling flowing through my whole body.
She paused, then looked at her brother. "Brother, have you noticed—"
Jiang Shu: "A-Zhi, my mental strength seems to have recovered a lot!"
The two spoke in unison.
The two looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Jiang Zhi: "It seems that this fruit is not only delicious, but also a natural source of spiritual energy."
She weighed the remaining half of the red fruit in her hand. The sweet fragrance mixed with the energy fluctuations made her heart leap. "I used up a lot of energy dealing with those screaming vines just now. Now I feel like a clear spring has been poured into my mental pool, it's very refreshing."
Jiang Shu patted the bulging cloth bag, grinning from ear to ear, "We're rich! We need to pick more; these fruits can not only serve as supplies, but we might even be able to exchange them for a lot of other goods!"
Jiang Zhi: "Are you stupid? Of course we should eat such good stuff ourselves, why would we trade it for supplies!"
Jiang Shu chuckled.
"I'm just worried that there won't be enough food for my family in the future."
Jiang Zhi smiled, "Don't worry, we'll always find food."
The brother and sister continued talking while their hands kept moving.
Completely unaware of the movement in the southwest direction, something moved.
At first, there was only a very slight tremor, as if some enormous thing had turned over under the soil.
Immediately afterwards, the entire ground sank down, and as the soil tumbled down, a transparent outline slowly moved, revealing a small but deep pit on the ground.
The next second, the deep pit quickly filled with water.
If Jiang Zhi were to see it, she would realize that it is exactly where the lake was located six months ago.
Something—occupies the entire lake.
