Wang Shengli was surprised: "Co-authoring has increased my success rate by 0.5?
It’s no different than nothing.”
Zhang Long smiled and said: "Look, your focus is wrong. Shouldn't you be focusing on what clues I have?
I gave you 0.5, which seems like too much."
"Hey, I can't defeat you, so what should we do next?"
Zhang Long said: "Let's go back to the place where Liu Li killed the men and horses just now. I want to pick up the bodies of the men and horses."
"Yes! Although it is small, it is still meat!"
"You know how to eat, I just want to see what I can use."
"Why didn't you look for clues just now?"
Zhang Long actually hadn't thought about it before, but he was already surprised by Liu Li's operation. He didn't have time to think about those things.
But now that he thinks about it, there is one place that can support his conjecture.
Not long after, Zhang Long and Wang Shengli arrived at the place where the body of the man and horse had just been abandoned.
Wang Shengli breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the shriveled corpse. Fortunately, it was not dragged away by any other strange beasts and insects.
But when I looked closer, it also attracted a lot of ants.
"Hey, it seems that the ants have mutated after eating the meat of this man and horse.
Not only is it bigger, but the pliers on its mouth have also become larger. Is this the rhythm of worker ants turning into soldier ants?"
"Be careful. The strange thing in this cave probably became like that after eating the flesh of the same kind as humans and horses."
Wang Shengli was also surprised by Zhang Long's words.
"You said that the piranhas, big bats, spiders, etc. in this cave all ate the flesh of humans and horses..."
"Say you can't focus on the key points. Those are not the key points. I'm talking about the fish head!"
"Fish head?
!”
At this time, Wang Shengli thought of the fish head that had been missing for a long time. The fish head man was indeed the weirdest creature he had ever seen. With a fish head and body, he could turn into a puddle of mud to protect himself, and he could recover from wounds surprisingly quickly.
As for the piranhas, there are only slight changes. The bat spiders are just larger in size at most, and have not risen to the level of mutation.
From what it sounds like, Wang Shengli also thinks that what Zhang Long said is quite reasonable.
"That's right, there's one more thing I want to verify."
As he spoke, Zhang Long groped his way to the centaur's side, then took Wang Shengli's multifunctional Swiss Army knife and cut open the centaur's belly.
Then the stomach bag was taken out from inside.
"I'll cut open the stomach pouch and see what's inside."
After Zhang Long cut open the stomach bag, a sour smell overflowed. It was so unpleasant that Wang Shengli also covered his nose and stepped forward to check it with a wooden stick.
"This thing is all blurry, what can you tell..."
"I want you to see what the ingredients of the food he eats are, whether they are meat or vegetarian. A human's stomach is usually emptied every four to six hours. This centaur, I don't know what his body movement mechanism is, but I think it's about the same.
Such a long time.”
Wang Shengli flipped through it for a long time and said: "There is meat and vegetables. The meat seems to be that of a bat, and there is still an undigested claw inside."
Zhang Long nodded. In this way, it can be confirmed that Zhang Xiaotong was not eaten by this centaur.
Otherwise, since Zhang Xiaotong doesn’t want to eat such delicate skin and tender meat, why would it be paired with a bat?
Is it true that eating a variety of food combinations can make nutrition more balanced?
"Can you see what's on his hoof again?"
Wang Shengli smiled and said: "You want to see if there is any mud on his feet, you can tell where he has been, but you will definitely be disappointed. Except for the Bat Cave, the rest of the place is full of stones. What traces will be left there?"
.”
However, as he said this, Wang Shengli still found clues in the gaps between the centaur's toes.
"Hey, this guy also has a bit of plant leaves stuck in his toes. This is strange. Apart from fungi, I really haven't seen any plants in this cave."
"Okay, let's go."
“Don’t you take this centaur?
It’s also food.”
"No, firstly, it looks too human. I don't even want to eat roasted monkeys in Africa, let alone creatures like humans and horses whose upper bodies are completely the same as humans. Also, do you want to mutate?"
Just like a fish head.”
Wang Shengli thought about the appearance of the fish head, shook his head repeatedly and said: "That's not possible. Although the fat man is not very handsome, this face must still be reserved for our old Wang family."
"That's alright, let's go."
Wang Shengli had a good relationship with Zhang Long, so Zhang Long didn't want to hide it from him, so he told Wang Shengli everything he had done with Liu Li.
"So I speculate that the place where this man and horse live must not be far from the secret room. Maybe Zhang Xiaotong is there."
Wang Shengli nodded and said: "It's really possible. As soon as this bitch Liu Li came out of the chute, she started to seduce people with her own blood, which fully proves that your judgment is correct.
But do we also want to use this method to lure people out?"
"No, let's climb into the chute first and take a look into the secret room. I believe there are many things Liu Li hasn't told me. Only with detailed information can we make a judgment.
Don't be too hasty. Didn't you listen to Liu Li?
If a man or a horse is caught, he or she will commit suicide, and what we want is not a dead man or horse."
"But if you drink their blood, maybe your eyes will be healed."
"I don't say whether to kill or not, I just think that these are intelligent creatures, so I can't bear to kill them just to treat their eyes.
It’s not like fish or chicken, I’ve been used to eating it since I was a child.”
Wang Shengli nodded and said: "It's the same reason. He looks too human, so he really can't be attacked."
Although Wang Shengli agreed on the surface, he thought that if he saw a man or horse, he would just kill one and drink the blood instead of eating meat. After all, Liu Li only got better after drinking the blood, and there were no other disadvantages.
The two of them walked along the underground river for a short time before arriving at the entrance of the chute that they had slipped out of earlier.
"This place is quite high, and the stone walls are very smooth, so it's not easy to climb."
"It's okay, just lift me up first, and then I'll pull you up."
"Alright."
Wang Shengli also used all his strength to push Zhang Long up.
Then Zhang Long placed two pieces of firewood slightly wider than the chute across the chute to prevent himself from falling.
Then he started to pull Fatty Wang.
Bah!
They were about to pull Fatty Wang up, but the firewood couldn't bear the strength of the two men and broke. The two men fell out of the cave entrance together and fell to the bottom of the mountain wall, smashing into pieces.
In the past, I could fall into the river because of the acceleration when sliding down. Now it is vertical. If it falls on the river beach, it will be a heavy fall.
"I understand the truth, but Brother Long, can you get off me?
If I don't fall to death, I will be crushed to death by you."
