The characteristic of the ice tree is that it will plunder the resources that can be used for its growth at all costs.
It's just that in that kind of environment, there won't be much nutrients.
Therefore, the most common thing that ice trees do is to freeze everything they can capture.
In other words, this is a tree that can eat people.
At the same time, ice trees have another characteristic.
If there is a threat to it around, then its branches will automatically produce a substance similar to antibodies.
"So, what you are saying is that there is something in the ice tree that can restrain these poisons. Therefore, the ice layer it produces can seal the entrance of the cave?" ??
she asked rhetorically.
Hearing this, Long Tianyu nodded and said, "From the current point of view, it is indeed the case. But now, the ice tree has been destroyed, and the remaining charcoal is probably -"
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he pulled her outside.
"Hey! The matter hasn't been resolved yet, where are we going?"
But she couldn't resist his tallness and long legs, so she could only follow him.
After that, she saw the secret guards collecting charcoal for her.
"Who among you can build a wall?"
The secret guards looked at each other.
This job can't be done!
It was agreed that it was just an easy job of killing people, so why now, do you still need to be a mason?
The secret guards felt miserable, but they did not dare to say anything.
After a long while, a weak voice said, "I know a lot. When I was young, I built a pigsty with my father."
"It's just you!"
Before he finished speaking, Long Tianyu chose the other party.
So, the little transparent secret guard, who looked bewildered, was brought to the entrance of the cave.
"You use the ice water and charcoal here to build up this hole!"
Little Transparent could only do as he was told.
At this time, the half-dead Gu Master next to him made no movement.
"Wait a minute, get him in first!"
Lin Mengya still remembers her grudge.
The two families had turned into ashes, and the executioner had to be buried with them.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, a series of curses and begging for mercy came from the Gu Master.
Although the little transparent secret guard was summoned by his master, he showed no mercy to his enemies.
He picked it up and threw it into the cave, and then followed Long Tianyu's instructions to build the entire cave entrance tightly.
In the air, the poisonous gas that made Lin Mengya feel troublesome finally gradually reduced its source.
Little Transparent also swallowed the detoxification pill she gave her and kept it under her tongue.
As the medicine fell, the vaguely uncomfortable feeling that had been making him finally dissipated.
"Huh, luckily you came up with this method, otherwise it would be really troublesome."
She praised sincerely.
Although Long Tianyu's face didn't change much, thinking about it, he felt happy in his heart. .
The little transparent secret guard shrank into the darkness, turned his head, and did not dare to take another look.
Although His Highness is usually strict, as long as it concerns the young lady, none of them dare to overstep his bounds.
But Lin Mengya had just relaxed a little and felt a little sad again.
"Although it's temporarily stopped now, what will happen later?"
Let’s not talk about whether another ice tree can be transplanted.
Even if there is a way, this thing will always be wild and untamable, and I'm afraid it will still plant the seeds of disaster.
But she didn't expect that at this moment, two small voices ran up to her one after the other.
"Meow--"
"Zhizhi——"
Two cuties, one black and one white, quickly occupied her shoulders.
"Why are you here? It's very dangerous here."
She touched the plush hair, but the worry in her heart did not diminish at all.
She was aware of the toxicity of the poison source, but if that didn't work, she could also choose to use some medicine to neutralize the toxicity.
However, firstly, the amount of medicine required was huge, and secondly, she did not have enough time to prepare it.
If the Baili family fails with one plan, they will definitely have other plans.
She'd better reach her destination before they had time to react.
Otherwise, if we continue to toss like this endlessly, even a man made of iron will not be able to bear it.
Just when she was worried, the ferret crawled down her shoulder and quickly got into a pile of black coal.
"Ferret, it's very dirty in there. Come out quickly. What if the fire doesn't go out and burns you?"
She immediately squatted down and used her hands to dig.
But its speed is not as agile as that of a ferret.
"Zhizhi——"
Inside a pile of black coal, the ferret poked its little head out.
Lin Mengya looked at the little guy who had turned into a gray-headed mouse and sighed secretly.
You have to worry about raising a pet, but it's also part of the fun.
She stretched out her hand and was about to hug the naughty little guy, but she saw it retracted again.
In desperation, she could only instruct Long Tianyu to move with the little secret guard.
Unexpectedly, after clearing away the charcoal, she saw a small ice box.
"Zhizhi——"
The ferret kept circling the ice box, stretching out its little claws and teeth to test it.
The torch illuminated this small corner, allowing her to see that there was a small thing, similar to a sapling, hidden at the bottom of the ice box.
The ferret also seemed to be interested in the sapling, but the ice box was too hard and it really couldn't help it.
"This is the seedling of the Ice Tree?"
She was also surprised.
The ice box was surrounded by water, which had obviously melted a lot.
The small brown sapling was frozen in the center of the empty box, but it did not look depressed, but showed full of vitality.
"This seedling shouldn't be able to eat people, right?" ??
she picked up the ferret and asked.
Long Tianyu shook his head.
"probably not."
And in terms of body size, maybe it would be better if a ferret gnawed on a sapling.
Lin Mengya originally wanted to take the ferret out, but the little one seemed very reluctant.
A pair of small red eyes stared motionlessly at the little sapling.
She suddenly remembered that this little thing was no ordinary mink.
I'm afraid there aren't many people who can eat poisonous insects and survive in stone cocoons.
Thinking of this, she let go of the little ferret.
As soon as the little guy landed, he immediately clung to the ice box.
Lin Mengya, who has always been doting on pets, immediately ordered her man to dig!
Finally, with the combined efforts of Long Tianyu and the little secret guard, a hole was cut out of the ice box, which was as hard as stone, just enough to accommodate the small body of the ferret.
"Zhizhi——"
The little ferret raised its head, barked at her twice, and immediately climbed in.
Even though she didn't understand animal language, Lin Mengya could still hear its pleasure.
The inside of the ice box is actually somewhat hollow.
The little ferret crawled in and chewed half of the sapling in one bite.
Isn't it?
The little guy works so hard just to get one more bite to eat?
Suddenly, she felt a little hot on her face.
Normally, she feeds very frequently, right?
Fortunately, there was only Long Tianyu and a small secret guard around him.
Otherwise, her reputation for treating little pets harshly will be confirmed.
But the ferret did not completely eat the sapling, but only ate the leaves on both sides.
After that, the ferret came out contentedly and returned to her shoulder with ease.
The clothes were too dirty to get rid of, but what she was more concerned about was the ferret's body.
"How about it?"
Long Tianyu also asked with concern.
Lin Mengya carefully held the ferret in her hands.
But I saw a trace of silver light coming out of the ferret's body.
"You, you just saw it?"
She asked nervously, Long Tianyu frowned, obviously, he also saw it.
The little secret guard immediately walked away from a certain distance obediently, turned his back to the two of them, and became vigilant.
Long Tianyu's eyes also returned to the ferret.
Only a trace of faint lines appeared in the snow On the mink.
The ferret, which looked harmless and cute before, now looks mysterious and unusual.
Almost holding her breath, Lin Mengya stared at the lines closely.
no!
Even if she simulates it in the system, she still can't tell what these lines represent.
The ferret was still as cute as ever, lying obediently in her hand, letting her turn it over and over gently, and had a good temper.
Long Tianyu frowned.
For safety reasons, he naturally disapproved of having another unstable factor by Ya'er's side.
But he still chose to respect her wishes in these matters.
"How do you plan to deal with it?"
Lin Mengya put the ferret back on her shoulders without even thinking about it.
"I want to keep it with me."
Her intuition is very keen.
Although this little ferret has a mysterious origin, it seems to be a bit dangerous now.
But from the beginning to now, the ferret has taken the initiative to show kindness to her.
As a small beast, it had given up its vigilance as a beast and came closer to her.
Then, she naturally shouldn't let him down.
"I believe that it may not be a pure coincidence that they appear next to me. But I feel that I still have to cherish these rare fates."
Compared to humans, animals' feelings and emotions are more direct.
Therefore, no matter what she faced, she had no idea of backing down.
Long Tianyu thought about it carefully.
From his perspective, none of the little things that appeared around her seemed simple.
Maybe Ya'er herself didn't realize it.
She is the miracle itself.
"Okay, then we'll keep it. But we'd better figure out what it is first."
"Thing" himself began to stare at the poor sapling with his small eyes.
But the ice box that had previously seemed a little tricky to Long Tianyu actually melted away quietly.
Lin Mengya was also able to see that the ice box was actually composed of countless small branches.
However, it's strange. Just now, the sapling was hiding in the ice box. Why did it melt away so easily now?
Without the protection of the ice box, the saplings looked a little weak.
Lin Mengya didn't dare to get too close, but the ferret on her shoulders suddenly jumped to the ground.
Then, he squatted beside the sapling.
But the strange thing is that the sapling didn't react at all.
The ferret didn't continue to speak. Instead, he squatted there and looked straight at her.
Lin Mengya glanced at the pair and whispered, "Do you think the ferret is telling me that it can control ice trees?"
