The "pillar" in the middle is not a real stone pillar at all, but a plant that emerges from the ground, twists and grows upward for about three meters, touches the top of the cave, and then spreads out around it.
A large number of vines were densely packed almost covering the entire cave ceiling.
Seeing Cheng Lili, Mo Collier hurried over and his excitement was palpable, "Ms. Cheng, great news! We have a great discovery! You know, O'Neill and I both have doctorates in botany, but we have never met.
We have seen this plant. It is neither a woody plant nor a fern. It has the characteristics of a plant and the characteristics of a fungus. O'Neill is sampling it... We have determined that the microorganisms in the water come from this plant.
plant."
"Mr. Mokolier, we need to retreat now!" Cheng Lili said patiently, "There is really no time for you to study now... Let's do this, I will arrange for someone to blow up the entrance of the cave, and you will come back next time when you have a chance.
Come and study."
Mokolier looked at the time and said anxiously: "Miss Cheng, five minutes, just five minutes, the sampling will be completed immediately, and then we can leave, okay?"
Cheng Lili looked at Xia Yu, saw him nodding slightly, and said, "Okay! As soon as possible!"
"Thank you so much!" Mokolier immediately turned around and continued working with the instrument happily.
At this time, the secret bodyguard of Cheng Lili's family, Ma Hongwei of the Five Elements Sect, came over. He looked at Xia Yu warily, then saluted Cheng Lili and asked, "Miss, this one looks very face-to-face."
born?"
"He was sent to rescue us from above. He couldn't be contacted, so he came in personally to inform us!" Cheng Lili explained.
Ma Hongwei nodded, with a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes. Cheng Lili was too close to this guy, and their hands almost touched each other. She must have been too careless!
"Miss, you'd better go out. The air here is dirty and bad for your health." Ma Hongwei advised.
Cheng Lili waved her hand and said, "I'm not that squeamish. How did you find yourself here?"
"When I was digging down, I suddenly opened up this place... I looked at it. The surrounding walls were very smooth. It was definitely a man-made place. The ground was made of stone. The plant seemed to grow out of the stone.
"Yes." Ma Hongwei said.
Cheng Lili looked at the roots of the plant and saw that there seemed to be no gaps between it and the surrounding stones. She was also amazed, "It's really magical!"
"What a miracle!" Xiao Hei had already come out, circled the plant several times, and said to Xia Yu, "This thing is an ancient plant, called Xuanshui Blood Snake Vine, and it is extremely aggressive."
"Xuanshui Blood Snake Vine?" Xia Yuqi asked, "How come I haven't heard of it?"
"Of course you haven't heard of it. Didn't I tell you that it was a product of ancient times? It has long been extinct now!" Xiao Hei rolled his eyes and said, "Fortunately, it is dormant, otherwise the people inside would have become
Its food! Tell them to stop messing around and leave!"
"Sleep?" Xia Yu asked puzzledly.
"It's just like sleeping, just like I was in the amulet before. I won't wake up without any stimulation! Mainly because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this garbage place is too thin, and it can't sleep without dormancy! The microorganisms those idiots talked about are actually all
The seeds of the Xuanshui Blood Snake Vine must have realized that they would not live long, so they released the seeds through the underground water system... However, I am afraid that there is no place where they can grow here."
Xia Yu showed a sudden look, "Then this thing has no value?"
"Who said that?" Xiao Hei yawned and chuckled, "Xuanshui Blood Snake Vine is usually used as a protective object in important places. There is definitely something hidden in this place, maybe there is some ancient treasure.
Let’s explore again when you come alone next time, there are too many people now, it’s inconvenient to do anything!”
"Okay... By the way, why do you look like you didn't wake up today?"
"After eating too much, my stomach is bloated and I can't digest it..." Xiao Hei chuckled, "If I didn't feel something was wrong here, I still wouldn't be able to wake up! You can play with yourself, Mr. Long, I'm going to go back to sleep."
"Wait... did you eat too much? What did you eat? Why didn't I know?" Xia Yu asked strangely.
"Uh..." Xiao Hei covered his mouth in annoyance and rolled his eyes, "I won't tell you..."
…
Five minutes passed quickly, and Mokolier and the others reluctantly left the cave with their precious information. The entrance to the cave was blown down using directional blasting, temporarily covering up the secret place below.
As soon as the cave entrance collapsed, Pan Zuowei's voice suddenly came from Xia Yu's communicator, "Captain Xia! Captain Xia!"
Xia Yu was stunned, is this communication equipment good again? He quickly took out the communicator, "Old Pan, it's me!"
"Captain, why couldn't I call you just now?"
"The radio is out of order!" Xia Yu glanced at the mine subconsciously, wondering if it was the hole? He suppressed the doubt in his heart and said: "Everything is safe inside, let's act as planned!"
"Understood! Captain, have you met up with Bai Xixi?"
"What?" Xia Yu was stunned, "She came in too?"
"I couldn't contact you before. Bai Xixi said she would go in to check out the situation. I couldn't stop her. Now she has lost contact!"
"Nonsense!" Xia Yu frowned and said, "The communication equipment should be ready now. You can contact her...forget it, let me contact her. You wait for me where you are and prepare to act as planned!"
After talking to Pan Zuowei, Xia Yu changed the channel and said to the communicator: "Bai Xi Xi, Bai Xi Xi!"
There was a response quickly in the communicator, but it was not a white voice, but a dry male voice, "Humph! A guy from China, right? Is this little girl one of yours?"
Xia Yu frowned, Bai Xixi was actually caught? Does the other party have such a master?
"Who are you?" Xia Yu said in a deep voice.
Jie Jie's laughter came from the communicator, "Just a down-and-out person... Hahaha! This little girl is fair and tender, tsk tsk tsk... she's really good..."
"Woo... Wu... Wu..." A white voice came from the communicator, and it was obvious that someone had covered his mouth.
To be able to capture Bai Xixi, a master of the Xiantian realm, alive, the opponent's strength should not be underestimated. Moreover, the opponent's Mandarin is fluent and has a bit of a southern Chinese accent. It is very likely that he is also a Chinese master.
When Xia Yu was thinking, Bai Xixi's voice came from the communicator, "You don't have to save me, they don't dare to touch me!"
Snap!
A crisp slap came from the communicator, and it was obvious that Bai Xixi's tender little face had been slapped hard.
"Isn't she the daughter of the leader of the Zhenyuan Sect? You really treat yourself like a green onion! Do you believe that I sent you to Southeast Asia to work as a chicken? Send the video of you picking up guests to your father for appreciation?"
"You bastard! You...wuwuwu..." Bai Xixi's mouth was blocked again.
A dry voice came from the communicator again: "You are here to rescue the medical team, right? Humph, I think you should save your energy! The special forces of the Magnesium Country are coming, and they are carrying heavy weapons! They
As long as you kill everyone, the mission will be completed. If you want to survive, you'd better cooperate with me!"
Xia Yu and Cheng Lili next to him looked at each other with surprised expressions. Who was it that caught Bai Xixi?
