Han Sen and Qu Lanxi continued to walk forward. After walking for more than ten miles, they still didn't encounter a single iron-shelled insect. They hunted a lot of tree crabs, and Han Sen also got three tree crab beasts.
The soul is a primitive-level armored beast soul. .
Later, I saw that the tree crabs were all walking around. It was so hard that my pockets couldn’t even hold them in. The harvest was very rich.
On the way, they also encountered a group of blood-scaled pythons. Han Sen simply kept away from them. There were too many of them and a fight would be very dangerous.
"It's strange, I really haven't encountered even a single iron-shelled insect." Han Sen also muttered in his heart. Logically speaking, the most common thing in the thorn jungle is iron-shelled insects. It can be said that they are everywhere.
But they had walked this way for twenty or thirty miles. Although they were still on the edge of the thorny jungle, there was no reason why they couldn't even encounter an iron-shelled insect.
"Iron-shelled insects?" Han Sen was thinking about it when he heard Xiao Fengfeng barking in one direction. After Han Sen and Qu Lanxi passed through the jungle, they found many iron-shelled insects.
Black beetles the size of fists were crawling quickly on the ground, just like a black river of insects. Large swaths of iron-shelled beetles were crawling in one direction, just like a great migration.
"What are these iron-shelled insects doing?" Han Sen looked at Qu Lanxi.
Qu Lanxi shook his head slightly: "I just know that there are a lot of iron-shelled insects in the thorn jungle. Although they live in groups, I have never heard of them having such strange behavior."
"Follow me and take a look." Han Sen was very interested in the strange behaviors of these strange creatures. Many times, some kind of treasure would appear. Han Sen had encountered them several times when he was in the Second Sanctuary.
Following the stream of iron-shelled insects, we walked inside. Within a few miles, we saw a valley in front of us. It was narrow on the outside and wide on the inside, like a gourd.
These iron-shelled insects, like a tide, are gathering in the valley from all directions, and they are all pouring into the valley.
Because there were iron-shelled insects everywhere around the valley, they had no way to go any further, and they couldn't see clearly what was going on in the valley.
"You and Xiao Fengfeng wait here while I climb up the mountain wall over there to see the situation." Han Sen pointed to the other side of the valley and said.
"Be careful." Qu Lanxi warned.
Han Sen turned around and sneaked around the mountain wall. He waited until there was no iron-shelled insect before he used the flying technique. He flew close to the mountain wall and quickly flew up. Then he quietly sneaked to the inside of the valley, wanting to see
Look what these iron-shelled insects are doing.
"I wonder if there are any advanced genetic fruits that have matured in the valley." Han Sen secretly thought to himself, but he had already sneaked to the side of the mountain wall, stretched his head to look into the valley, and suddenly took a breath of air.
I saw a rose-like plant growing in the valley. The clusters of red flowers bloomed very brightly. The iron-shelled insects rushed towards the plant.
But there was a big crack on the outside of the plant, and an unknown number of the iron-shelled insects in the crack were dead. It was like a river of insect corpses.
Moreover, swarms of Iron-shelled Insects are still crawling in, as if they don’t know what death is. Once an Iron-shelled Insect falls into the big crack, it’s not known what force it was hurt by.
Not long after crawling between the body and the corpse water, he died immediately. The corpse water flowed out of his body and became part of the insect corpse river.
"I don't know what level of genetic plants that bunch of plants are, but they have such a strong attraction to these iron-shelled insects. They know that they are facing death, but they still rush forward without fear of death." Han Sen thought in his mind.
Surprised, I looked carefully at the rose-like plant.
But when I took a closer look, I saw a figure among the rose bushes, but it was blocked by the lush rose bushes, so I couldn't see clearly who it was.
Han Sen was confused and changed his position, trying to see clearly who was inside and what he was doing there.
Because the rose bushes there were so dense, Han Sen looked at them for a long time, but still couldn't see clearly who was inside. He could only vaguely see a figure sitting cross-legged inside.
However, after wandering around for so long, Han Sen finally saw one thing clearly. The thing that attracted these iron-shelled insects to die was probably not the rose bush.
Around the rose bush, Han Sen saw many small lit incense candles. The fragrance emitted by the burning incense candles seemed to be the root of attracting the iron-shelled insects.
As for the large cracks on the outside, if you look carefully, you can still see some artificial traces. It should be a masterpiece that is half natural and half artificial.
As for why the iron-shelled insects died inside, I'm afraid it's probably due to man-made consequences.
"Human or alien? Or some kind of human-like alien creature?" Han Sen's heart was like a cat scratching his head, trying to see clearly what the figure in the rose bush was.
But the distance here is indeed too far. Han Sen can't see clearly at all. The Dongxuan aura and eighth spiritual consciousness are not enough to support such a long distance.
"I should have practiced the Dong Xuan Sutra and Ice Muscle Jade Bone Technique to the second level earlier." Han Sen felt depressed.
However, Han Sen soon became happy because he found that the incense candles were about to be burned out. If the people in the rose bush were really using the incense candles to lure the iron-shelled insects to death, then he would definitely come out and replace the incense candles.
Han Sen thought of this and patiently stood by, waiting for the incense candle to burn out to see who came out.
There wasn't much of the incense candle left, but it still burned for more than an hour before it was almost extinguished. Seeing that the incense candle was almost burned out, the figure sitting in the rose bush remained motionless and didn't seem to come out.
mean.
After the incense candles were burned out, there was still no movement. After the burning smell gradually dissipated, the iron beetles began to regain their consciousness, and gradually began to stop rushing into the valley. Some iron beetles had already begun to go outside the valley.
climb.
"It seems he won't come out." Han Sen frowned secretly. If the figure didn't come out, he wouldn't dare to fly out and get close to the rose bush.
To be able to use such means to attract a large number of Iron-shelled Insects to die in a place like the Thorn Jungle, he must be a powerful person with a big agenda. Han Sen did not dare to get too close and let him discover his existence.
The iron-shelled insects in the valley were almost gone, but there was no movement from the human figure. Han Sen thought there was no chance. He was about to leave here to join Qulan River, but suddenly he heard something coming from the rose bushes over there.
movement.
Han Sen quickly leaned down and looked towards the rose bushes in the valley. He saw a man standing up from the rose bushes. After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Han Sen's eyes widened and his mouth widened for a while.
