Wu Xie hesitated for a moment and said nothing more.
See the situation.
Pan Zi spoke, "Then it's settled, I'll send a signal to Third Master now. They should be approaching the canyon. I have to remind them about the pheasant necks here, otherwise they might suffer heavy losses."
Even though he knew yesterday that Wu Sansheng's group was behind him, Aning was still very unhappy when he heard what Pan Zi said, "It's like we're doing this as if we were here to make a surprise move."
There is nothing wrong with what you say.
Pan Zi smiled and had nothing to say.
Ding Ze was amused and put his arm around An Ning's waist, "There's nothing to be angry about. It's normal that you will be set up by that old fox Wu Sansheng."
"He is not an ordinary person. He has spent most of his life designing others."
When Wu Xie heard this, he was a little speechless, "Brother Ding, are you really okay with what you said?"
"Haha, what's wrong," Ding Ze said with a smile, and then without saying much, he called Pan Zi, "Pan Zi, if you want to send a signal, hurry up, we still have to hurry."
"Okay, Master Ding," Pan Zi responded. Without any delay, Ma Liu took out a piece of clothing and a prepared pill from his backpack and started to light the fire.
It won't take a while.
A thick yellow smoke rose.
According to Pan Zi, this yellow smoke can last for several hours.
Of course, they can't wait here.
So, after the smoke rose...
"Miss Ning, please wait a moment. I have to go back to the exit of the canyon and leave some messages to tell Mr. San about the pheasant neck," Pan Zi said politely to Aning.
"It's up to you," Aning replied, still unhappy.
Pan Zi didn't care, he immediately moved and walked back alone.
About an hour later.
Pan Zi is back.
Everyone stopped talking nonsense, and after leaving relevant information for Menyou Ping, they started to move forward.
The rain has stopped temporarily, but the sky is still overcast, so the light in this basin is not very good.
After walking for a while, everyone reached the edge of the swamp.
I saw that the scene in front had changed.
The short section ahead is a relatively sparse rainforest zone with relatively high terrain. Many connected tree groups protrude from the water. From this position, these tree groups look like huge islands.
The water level in front is not deep and the water is relatively clear. You can see many rocks lying in the mud underwater.
See the situation.
Wu Xie couldn't help but said, "Maybe we should make a few canoes and paddle across."
Aning heard this and shook his head, "It's unrealistic. The woods ahead are too dense and the tree roots are absolutely tangled. We can only walk in the water."
The rainforest area in front is very large.
After a brief discussion, everyone didn't waste any more time and entered the water one after another, either stepping on rocks or mud, and slowly moved forward.
Walking in the water like this is not an easy task.
Everyone walked for a while and entered the dense forest area.
The trees in this area are all very tall and have grown for who knows how many years.
The crowns of the big trees are almost completely connected together, blocking the sky. Very little light can penetrate. As a result, even in broad daylight, this area is still extremely dark for everyone.
, just like at night.
But there is good news.
The good news is that these trees have been growing for many years.
The root system is very large, and countless tree roots are almost intertwined together, and many of them protrude from the mud at the bottom of the water, forming a very peculiar road.
Everyone no longer needs to step on the mud and move slowly and laboriously, walking faster.
"This place is just like a huge tree hole," the fat man commented, looking from left to right.
Aning didn't care about this, and said with a vigilant look, "Everyone, please be careful. It's too quiet here, there is no sound at all. There is a high possibility of pheasant necks like that."
The fat man was quite afraid of that kind of snake. Hearing this, he felt a little nervous and said, "Didn't Old Ding say that thing seems to come out only at night?"
Ding Ze smiled and said, "There seems to be no difference between day and night in this area. My wife is right. Maybe the snakes here can't tell the difference between day and night."
Fatty: "!!!Old Ding, don't be so stupid. I've been walking in the water for so long, and I've lost a lot of mud on my body."
"Then hurry up and make up for it. It's always better to be careful," Ding Ze said with a smile. Then, without delay, he bent down to scoop up some mud and wiped it on Aning's body.
After all, Aning is a beauty, but she doesn't like having mud all over her body, but she has no choice but to grit her teeth and say thank you to Ding Ze, "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do," Ding Ze replied shamelessly.
At this time.
Wu Xie said, "I have a question. The necks of those pheasants we saw at night are not big, which means they may have been bred only a few years ago."
"This further means that those snakes are very likely to have survived here for a long time, generation after generation."
"What do they eat?"
"There is endless Gobi desert all around. Even if animals accidentally jump in occasionally, there won't be enough for them to eat."
This is an interesting question.
"Maybe they don't need to eat," Ding Ze replied casually, "This is the source of immortality. Maybe they have some special ability."
"Haha, let's be serious. Nine times out of ten, they live deep underground... Think about it, in a ghost place like Changbai Mountain, there are billions of centipedes living underground. This is the surface of the earth after all.
, those snakes are not worse than centipedes, right?"
Ding Ze replied, "Anyway, it's really hard to get food in the snowy mountains."
When Wu Xie heard this, he was stunned for a moment, "It makes sense...but this is too evil."
"Have we seen less of the evil sect? Let me tell you, we have reached the headquarters of the evil sect now," Ding Ze said with a smile.
As soon as the words left my mouth.
Someone noticed something strange in front of him and reminded him loudly.
Everyone stopped and looked forward.
Not far ahead, I saw some buildings that were almost completely wrapped in tree roots and vines.
These buildings all protrude out of the water and form a column shape. They look like towers. There are quite a few of them, with different heights and sizes.
Aning saw it and smiled, "It seems that we are going in the right direction. Those buildings are all relics of the Western Queen's Mother Kingdom. We can see more relics next."
Aning spoke, and after speaking, he ordered, "Work harder, let's keep walking."
A few minutes later.
Everyone arrived at the ruins and looked at them curiously.
Looking at it from a close distance,
There are many square holes on these tower-like buildings, which are empty inside.
If you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of water coming from the inside and bottom of the tower.
