Hoarding money to raise cubs Day 289
"Don't worry, after this section, the bottom is very wide." Akeliu looked at the faces of the two and said, thinking that Lu Liran and Ke Ji were worried about this.
Lu Liran looked away, and nodded to Akeliu when he heard the words.
There are old vines growing wildly everywhere in the jungle, mainly Xilong vines, at least decades old vines are tough and strong, fully able to bear the weight of an adult.
Akeliu grabbed an old vine and pulled it hard twice, then cut it off with a knife, and handed it to Lu Liran: "This one is strong, no problem, you can climb down after it is tied, the bottom is not deep, at most A little more than ten meters, you just follow me."
While talking, he also cut off an old vine for Ke Ji, tied the stone, and carefully tied Ke Ji around his waist, as if if he didn't do this, Ke Ji might have an accident.
On the other hand, on Lu Liran's side, he was already self-reliant and ready to go down the narrow ditch.
Ke Ji: "..."
"I can do it myself." Ke Ji took it over and motioned Akeliu to take care of himself first.
Akeliu looked at Ke Ji with worry in his eyes: "Let me check it for you."
Ke Ji couldn't refuse the other party's kindness, so he could only stand there expressionless, and looked at Lu Liran again, his deputy team was showing an inexplicable smile in this direction.
Ke Ji sighed.
After passing through Achilles' careful inspection, the three of them finally headed down the ditch.
As Achilles said, after they climbed through the narrowest gap in the first two or three meters, the gap between the gaps gradually opened up, and they could even turn around and move.
The three of them are all climbing masters, and Achilles thought it would take at least half an hour for the rock climbing journey, which took less than half of the time.
He untied the old vine around his waist, roughly estimated the time in his mind, and said: "We are quite fast, more than an hour earlier than I expected to arrive here, and there should be plenty of time."
The world at the bottom of the ditch is completely different. Although there are countless old trees, vines and grass growing here, compared with the top, it has an ominous grayness.
I don't know if it's because of the night, but under the light from the torches, the old vines and leaves all have a dull grayish purple.
Achilles reminded: "Be careful not to be scratched by the barbs on these leaf stems, it will be very painful, and a small piece of skin will rot soon."
As if to prove it, he pulled off his animal fur coat, revealing a lean and strong abdominal muscle. On the right side of the abdominal muscle, there was a twisted and dense scar: "This is the first time I accidentally scratched my stomach when I left. It’s really great.”
Lu Liran was speechless, and his eyes fell on the barbs that Akeliu said, which looked like rose thorns, the thorn roots were slightly thick and whitish, but the thorn tips were a little purple.
Lu Liran turned his head to think for a while, then turned to ask Ke Ji for a dagger, and lightly scratched the thorn twice. Just two strokes, the bark of the thorn was cut off, and milky white poisonous sap oozes out.
The venom overflowed the bark of the stem, but it did not corrode the layer of wood on the branch. Seeing this, Lu Liran picked up a stone and rubbed it up. A small scorched black spot appeared on the surface of the stone.
Lu Liran squinted his eyes slightly when he saw this, which he expected, nature itself is like this, there are poisonous things growing, and within five steps around, there will be detoxifying or anti-toxic things.
He stored the venom separately, and peeled off the wooden skin just in case.
Ke Ji saw it, this was completely Lu Liran's style, he would not miss it when he passed by, even if it was a deadly poison, he dared to take it and use it.
Akeliu looked at Lu Liran with deeper admiration. Ever since he was stabbed, he avoided this kind of thorn. He never thought about taking poison, nor did he think about the original wooden skin. It is resistant to toxicity.
Lu Liran dared to do this after seeing his wound, without being frightened at all, he is really a ruthless person.
"What do you want to do with these?" Achilles was curious.
"Multiple self-defense things are better than nothing." Lu Liran said lightly.
He was just used to doing this, and he had never seen this kind of plant before, and he wanted to take some samples because he was probably affected by the Seiya secret technique in this narrow ditch secret realm.
Sure enough, after taking the samples, a systematic reminder sounded in Lu Liran's mind—if an unknown mutated plant is found, the system will reward x1 research points; if an unknown mutated venom is discovered, the system will reward x1 research points.
Lu Liran has a basic field detection skill, which was rewarded by the system a long time ago. It can identify more than 70% of animals and plants and obtain all their information.
Lu Liran took a detection.
The system held back for a long time, and it only detected that the venom has rapid decomposition and exertion, and it will lose its poisonous effect after being exposed to the air for a few minutes, so even if the initial corrosion and burns are amazing, as long as it is not a critical part, it will not be fatal.
Lu Liran couldn't tell whether it was the tasteless venom or not, so Lu Liran twitched the corners of his mouth.
"As long as you leave the maze outside Mangya Spring before dawn, there will be no major problems." Seeing that Lu Liran had already dealt with it, Akeliu said.
He pointed to several big trees around him, and motioned for the two to climb up the trees with him: "Look, Mangya Spring is over there."
Lu Liran and Ke Ji climbed up the treetops, followed the direction of Akeliu's finger, and at a glance they could see the target they were looking for quietly falling in a blue spot of light.
"Those are British blue butterflies, with light emitters hanging from their wings and tails. They are not poisonous, so don't worry." Achilles said, "But the bushes right in front of us, have you seen them? Seiya's traps are all over there Don’t look at the short distance, if you don’t know the route, it’s easy to get lost in it, and you’ll die if you’re not careful.”
Lu Liran saw it. The area of the bush was equivalent to half a basketball court, and the height of the bush was as high as a person's chest. If it wasn't for the miasma surrounding the bush, it would be no different from an ordinary bush.
Miasma in the forest is very common, but miasma like this that only appears in a certain area is particularly obvious and weird.
Lu Liran lay on the treetop, frowning slightly.
"You guys follow me later, I've been here several times." Akeliu patted his chest.
The three of them got down from the tree, and Akeliu took three pieces of animal furs that had been smeared with foreign objects from the small package that he carried with him, and distributed them to Lu Liran and Ke Ji, saying:
"This is smeared with the herbal medicine of our Kugwa tribe, which can counteract the hallucinations. The miasma can make people confused. With this, it can resist for a while."
The two of them took the fur and covered their faces like Achilles did. A smell of herbal medicine wafted through their nostrils, which was really unpleasant.
"Let's go in now, as long as we come out within half an hour, there won't be much problem. Let's keep up." Akeliu lowered his voice and turned to Lu Liran and Ke Ji.
With Achilles leading the way, the three walked silently into the bushes shrouded in miasma.
Although looking down from the tree, the height of this bush is only at the height of a person's chest, but when he is in it, it gives people a feeling of depression that will never come out of thin air.
Lu Liran felt a little weird in his heart. He has entered countless jungles, swamps, even volcanoes, caves, and snowfields. There was never a trace of fear.
However, this place made him feel uneasy.
He looked around, it was strangely quiet here, and there were few biological sounds. Akeliu, who was walking in front, stopped and stopped, and Lu Liran noticed a sound of rustling on the leaves and stems of the shrubs on both sides. A closer look turned out to be a dense colony of ants.
His eyes flickered, and his breathing suddenly became heavier. Anyone who suddenly saw such a large number of ants would feel uncomfortable.
Ke Ji pressed Lu Liran's shoulder and said in a low voice, "It's Akeliu."
Hearing this, Lu Liran looked at the young man walking in front in surprise, and sure enough, he saw that all the ants had moved in front of Akeliu, forming a wave-like ant wall.
This scene made Lu Liran feel a little familiar. He thought of a man he pulled up when the mountain torrent erupted before, and under that man was also a colony of ants that lifted him from the flood.
It turned out to be him.
Under the guidance of Achilles and the ant colony, the three arrived in front of the Mangya Spring almost unimpeded, and the smoothness was unimaginable.
Mangya Spring is a pool the size of a hot spring. At first glance, it seems that it appeared here out of thin air, with no source or flow.
Surrounded by flying indigo butterflies, the sprinkled phosphorous powder shone brightly, making this place as magical as a dream.
Akeliu put the torch next to the spring and said to Lu Liran, "This is Mangya Spring. It is shrinking year by year. Can you see where it is sick?"
Lu Liran called the system in his mind, the basic field detection skills can scan this piece of terrain, he scanned out all the terrain faults in this place, but he couldn't understand it.
The bottom of the spring water seems to be hollowed out.
It's like a huge funnel, no matter how small the mouth is, it keeps leaking downwards.
"Mangya Spring used to be very deep. Have you seen the stones around here? The water level of Mangya Spring used to be able to submerge these stones, but now that's all there is." Akeliu said in a low voice.
Before Mangya Spring was invaded, before no one noticed that it began to shrink, people from all tribes would come here to play. It's not very powerful, but it also made him suffer a little.
Lu Liran understood a little after hearing the words. I am afraid that this piece of landform is also a wetland karst underground cave. Perhaps the years of underground stratum movement have caused the cracks and seepage holes at the bottom of Mangya Spring to become more and more obvious, and the spring water has leaked down. .
And such an ordinary natural change, in the eyes of these primitive tribes, may become a punishment from some kind of god.
It is not impossible to solve it, but it is only a temporary solution, not a permanent cure.
Lu Liran didn't answer Akeliu quickly, and Akeliu was a little bit disappointed, but it was within his expectation. He pursed his lips and said, "Forget it, get the spring water quickly, and I'll take you out of here."
As soon as he finished speaking, all of a sudden, the ants colonies that had stayed in the bushes rushed from all directions, forming a fine shadow in front of Akeliu, and the shapes of the ant colonies were constantly changing.
Seeing this, Achilles' pupils shrank fiercely: "It's not right, the Saiyan tribe..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was suddenly pulled by Ke Ji, and at the same time he staggered, he heard the sound of breaking wind passing by his ears, and a sharp arrow brushed past him!
Akeliu stared wide-eyed in shock, and quickly looked up, but saw nothing.
"It's a trap." Lu Liran said quickly, he felt a slight movement on the ground under his feet, as if something was starting.
Lu Liran was even more disturbed, he took a deep breath, and immediately pushed Akeliu into the spring, followed by two more "plops", and he and Ke Ji also jumped into it.
Achilles poked his head out quickly to take a breath, but before he had time to ask about the situation, he heard more sound of breaking wind passing over his head, and countless feathered arrows were fired at the same time!
If Lu Liran hadn't pushed him into the water just now, the three of them would have been shot into a sieve right now.
There was a bulge on the ground beside the spring, and the soil fell down rustlingly, revealing a row of bamboo organs.
Before Achilles could understand the appearance of this row of traps, he saw a string of tongues of flame spraying out from the holes of the traps, and his colony of ants ran around under the tongues of flames, making crackling and scorching sounds.
