Chapter 314 Red-backed Giant Toad


Chapter 314 Red-backed Giant Toad

Judging from the loud buzzing sound, the number of the upcoming insect swarm will definitely not be low.

The facts proved to be true. Not long after, countless black flying insects were seen flying from a distance. The size of these flying insects could be compared to dragonflies, and they suddenly seemed like black clouds passing by.

Fortunately, these flying insects had no eyesight, and their targets were still those hanging plant roots. They were not interested in Chen Ziyan and others, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

Even if they have guns in hand, they don't want to face this kind of thing. They must know that sometimes the quantity is terrifying.

After carefully passing through the area where the swarm of insects lingered, Chen Ziyan asked Shirley Yang in a low voice: "Shirley, do you see what kind of bug this is?"

Although in such an isolated place, many creatures None of them were known to the outside world, but he still had to ask.

Knowing yourself and the enemy will ensure victory. Even if these flying insects do not attack them, there is always no harm in getting to know them better.

It's a pity that Chen Ziyan didn't remember such an insignificant thing very clearly. He could only vaguely remember that there was such a thing, otherwise there would be no need to ask Shirley Yang.

Shirley Yang thought for a while and said with some uncertainty: "Looking at the characteristics, this seems to be a black midge larvae that only exists in hot wetlands, but as far as I know this insect even They are adults, only about the size of a fingernail, but the ones just now are almost the size of dragonflies..."

Her words came to an abrupt end before she finished speaking, and the reason that made her speechless was a water spider leisurely passing by on the water in front of her.

Not only Shirley Yang knew this thing, but everyone else also knew it, but that was why he was even more surprised.

You must know that the water spiders you usually see are very small, but this one in front of you is the size of a fist, which is simply incredible.

But before the shocked people could think about it, they saw several more giant water spiders crawling across the water and leisurely climbing onto the fossilized ancient tree next to them.

It wasn’t until these water spiders were completely gone that Wang Kaixuan said with a face full of surprise: “Hey, what do the bugs in this place eat to grow up? Why are they all so big?”


Now he was starting to wonder if he was dreaming, because everything that appeared was so unreal.

Chen Ziyan recalled something and reminded him from the side: "I don't know if you have noticed that the cave we are in now has extremely smooth stone walls, and obvious curvatures can be seen in the narrow places. ."

Wang Kaixuan added: "Speaking of this, I also noticed that even the color is red."

"The smooth stone wall...the curvature...and the red color. ..."

When the information was put together, everyone immediately noticed something was wrong.

Hu Bayi suddenly glanced around, and then said in disbelief: "Why does this look so like the stone gourd we saw in front of the mountain temple? Is it possible that we are inside this gourd now?"

Shirley Yang followed his train of thought and continued: "If this is really the case, wouldn't we be in a state of shrinkage now?"

In fact, the two of them also knew that their words were very whimsical. , but the current environment and various enlarged versions of creatures make it difficult for them not to think in this direction.

It can only be said that when there are too many things and things that are beyond common sense, when people encounter things that are difficult to explain with common sense, they will involuntarily think in the direction of the unreasonable.

Because in this way, many unexplainable things will be given a reasonable reason.

Granted, Shirley Young's words are ridiculous.

But on such an occasion, it suddenly made some sense, and everyone began to think about the possibility of this speculation involuntarily.

It’s just that this matter is really incredible, and no one dares to make a conclusion for a while.

Even Chen Ziyan, who brought up this topic, was a little hesitant at the moment.

At first he just wanted to use this to say that the environment here was different from the outside world, so as to pave the way for the emergence of Huo's undead bugs.

But I never imagined that the topic would deviate to this extent in just a few words.

But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the conjecture raised by Shirley Yang might actually hit the point by accident.

The overall shrunken state may not exist, but there must be something inhumane and mysterious about it.

The silence of the crowd did not affect Shirley Yang. After organizing some words, the girl spoke out the basis for her conjecture:

"You can find out by comparing it with nearby objects. , not counting plants, insects, or those ancient tree fossils, they are actually growing in geometric multiples. In addition, there is a special spatial structure that is very similar to a gourd, and there are some other strange features, so I have a bold guess. , that is, does the space here contain some mysterious power that makes us keep getting smaller as we move forward? ”

Chen Ziyan thought for a while and asked: "Is there another possibility? Because of the special environment here, the overall ecosystem is larger than the outside world?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Shirley Yang did not veto Chen Ziyan's words, but said: "But if you want to create a complete ecological cycle system, even the smallest one needs sufficient space. Although the space here is okay, it is far from enough." At the lowest level, we can only complete a semi-finished product at best.”

Shirley Yang’s words are actually not very rigorous, because if it is just a simple ecological cycle chain, the required conditions are not complicated, and the requirements are slightly larger. Ponds can be considered.

But that kind of ecosystem was too fragile and was just a product of the greenhouse that could not withstand twists and turns, so she naturally ignored all the products of this model.

Chen Ziyan felt that Shirley Yang's statement made some sense, but he didn't know whether it was right or not.

After all, he has never studied this area of ​​knowledge, but only has a slight understanding of it.

So after thinking for a while to no avail, he decisively turned his attention to other friends, hoping to get some response from them.

Of course, his eyes were mainly on Ding Sitian. As for Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan...

Don't mention it!

If you think about it for a moment, you will know that it is definitely not as good as him.

Facts proved Chen Ziyan's foresight. When he looked at Ding Sitian, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan also made the same move.

Facing the burning gazes of several people seeking knowledge, Ding Sitian was also a little numb. She didn’t understand this aspect either!

Is there any mistake? She is a pharmacologist, not a planter!

Looking forward to a response, Chen Ziyan already knew the answer when Ding Sitian remained silent.

Well, this guy doesn’t know either.

After seeking help from the sidelines to no avail, he had to figure it out on his own again.

Chen Ziyan had no other choice but to review what happened after seeing the flaming stone gourd.

The first is the overall shape of the space. Although the terrain behind it is not clear at this time, judging from the stages they walked through, it really resembles the shape of the stone gourd in front of the mountain temple. , a trumpet-arc shape with a small opening and a large belly. The further you go in, the larger the space becomes.

The second thing is the rock wall inside the cave. Not to mention that there is no trace of man-made changes, the whole thing looks like it is completely natural. It is not certain to say that it is a natural formation. Finally, there is the unique environment in front of us. Just because it can survive creatures like Huo's undead bugs that have been eliminated by the times, we can see how magical it is.

After going through all of this in his mind, Chen Ziyan suddenly had a feeling. He felt that if he could decipher the mystery inside, it might be his biggest gain from this trip, except for the Muchen Bead.

After figuring this out, Chen Ziyan felt a little happier.

Because even if he got nothing from this matter in the end, he would not have lost anything. On the contrary, if he found something, it would definitely be regarded as an unexpected surprise.

All in all, this is a good thing for him!

Others don't know Chen Ziyan's slightly complicated mental journey. They are still immersed in the previous topics, thinking about the possibility of Shirley Yang's statement.

Even Shirley Yang, who made this 'bold' guess, is the same, because she knows very well that although her guess has some truth, the guess is just a 'guess' after all, and there must be enough evidence to turn it into reality.

So after thinking for a while, Shirley Yang said again: "Everything around us is much larger than normal now. I think we should find more familiar reference objects to determine what is going on. What's going on? If it's like what I guessed, then turn around and go back the way you came. After you get out, you can find other ways to find the Tomb of King Xian."

Instead of satisfying your curiosity, She felt that the safety of herself and others was more important.

If there is really some kind of supernatural force here, then you have to avoid it. There is no need to rush in with all your heart.

In fact, Shirley Yang has already thought of a way, which is to dive into the water and use aquatic plants as a comparison. Because of the unique properties of algae, the size of the growth will not be different due to changes in the environment.

If the aquatic plants are also far larger than normal, that means they are really in trouble.

But as soon as this idea arose, she decisively killed it.

If it were another place, maybe we could try it, but trying here is basically equivalent to committing suicide.

The fear caused by the female corpse in the water just now has not completely faded away. Going into the water now may not be a trap.

However, Shirley Yang did not say anything. Hu Bayi, who also thought of the characteristics of algae, said it without hesitation:

"We can use aquatic plants for comparison. There must be some in the water, so we can get the answer in the shortest time."

"This is a good method, you can give it a try."

Chen Ziyan nodded lightly when he heard this, but stopped Hu Bayi who wanted to take the lead. Instead, he looked at Huahu: "Huahu, go down and have a look."

Since there is someone beside him Puppet armor guards, then why do they need to do this kind of thing themselves.

To put it bluntly, the puppet armor that wanted to trap him was not good enough for those underwater things.

Unless there are large-scale births of ferocious babies conceived in female corpses, Puppet Armor can completely ignore these things.

Before anyone else could react, Huahu jumped into the water without hesitation after receiving Chen Ziyan's order. The speed was so fast that people were caught off guard.

The rest of the people who came back to their senses after seeing this neat move all frowned. They asked themselves, if it were them who had to change places, they wouldn't be timid, but they would definitely wait for some psychological construction. Just fine.

After all, knowing that there are so many female corpses in the water, it really takes courage to go down at this time.

But what about this flower fox who said nothing along the way?

The dance was so smooth, without even a trace of hesitation. It could be said that the moment Chen Ziyan finished speaking, he had already plunged into the water.

So decisive and amazing!

Wang Kaixuan looked at the gradually fading ripples on the water and asked with wonder: "Master Chen, do our Huahu brothers don't know what it means to be afraid? And the same goes for the Wushuang brothers. I I found out that they are really brave!”

Fatty said that there are not many people that he can admire, but now, whether it is Wushuanggui or Huahu, he can definitely be counted as one of them.

Although Hu Bayi remained silent, he also held the same view.

He really wanted to go down by himself just now, after all, it was his idea, but he felt a little uneasy when he took the step. After all, he had rashly entered such unknown waters, and no one would be worried about it.

So in the face of such a sharp contrast, he admired Huahu's decisiveness even more.

What no one noticed was that at this moment, a trace of doubt flashed in the depths of Shirley Yang's eyes.

In fact, she had a feeling that something was wrong with the Wushuang ghost next to Chen Ziyan, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

After Huahu appeared, her feeling became more intense. However, the presence of these two guys was usually too low, so she didn't take them seriously.

But because of the angle, she could clearly see Huahu's expression just now, which reminded her of her previous doubts again.

Because she found that Huahu didn’t have any expression fluctuations throughout the whole process.

Shirley Yang was sure that after Chen Ziyan gave the order, Huahu's eyes did not change at all.

It was as if Chen Ziyan did not ask him to jump into the dangerous water, but instead took a gentle step forward.

At that moment, she even felt that this was not a person of flesh and blood, but a cold machine covered in human skin.

But before Shirley Yang could think about it, the calm water surface suddenly rippled, and Hua Hu, who had just entered the water, suddenly showed his head, and then walked towards the hovercraft without saying a word.

Seeing Huahu coming out of the water, others hurried over to help, trying to pull him back to the boat.

After Huahu took out half of his body, they discovered that he was holding something else in his hand.

At first, they thought they were aquatic plants brought back, but they soon realized something was wrong, because what the flower fox was holding seemed to be a leg?

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan suddenly looked solemn, put their hands on their weapons, and were ready to take action at any time.

But when the thing completely left the water, they discovered that it was actually a toad, and it was also a huge red-backed toad.

It’s just that there were so many aquatic plants wrapped around the toad’s body that he couldn’t see the other person’s appearance clearly at the first time.

"This toad must have grown up taking hormones, why is it so big!" Wang Kaixuan's eyes widened when he saw this.

The performance of this giant toad is already as good as that of Mopan. Even if they are together, they may not be able to catch up with each other. It is simply beyond his understanding.

Chen Ziyan had also ignored this before. When he saw the giant toad in Huahu's hand, he suddenly remembered that there were not only those female corpses in the water, but also an unknown number of giant toads. .

Although this thing doesn't have a high presence in the original plot, it can still be regarded as a small threat.
