Chapter 91: Nightmare in the Rainforest, Ten Thousand Insects from the Underground
The bobcat marked the map and then asked, "Old man, do you know there are centipedes nearby?"
The old village chief hesitated for a moment and replied, "There are centipedes in Baizhe Valley! There are many poisonous insects there, and it is also very dangerous. In the past, people often went to catch centipedes and dispensed medicine, but now they are engaged in artificial breeding. Since the old Chinese doctor in the village passed away, no one has been there for decades."
Yin Taoyao asked hurriedly after hearing this, "Do you know the way to Baimeng Valley?"
The old village chief shook his head and said, "I went there once with the old Chinese doctor when I was young, and now I can only remember the approximate location. Do you want to go to Baimeng Valley? I advise you not to take risks. If the old Chinese doctor had not equipped a detoxification pill, no one would have dared to go in."
"Do you have to use the old Chinese doctor's antidote pill?" Yin Taoyao asked strangely.
The old village chief nodded and said, "One hundred kinds of centipedes have a hundred different toxicities. What should I do if I don't have special antidotes? It's at least three days from here to Baishou Valley, and it's too late to go to the hospital."
Li Chong agreed: "This is the reason. The old man can simply draw the location. Let's try it, and it won't take risks easily."
"Okay!" The old village chief hesitated for a while, pointed to the map and said, "Hundred Worm Valley is about this location..."
…………
"We went separately to search for the missing village names and finally gathered at this location. Do you have any problems?" Li Chong pointed to the map outside the wild elephant valley and asked at the Twelve Golden Saints.
The team members of the three groups replied at the same time: "No problem."
After agreeing, Bobcat asked with great concern: "Is there any problem with you? Do you want me to separate two people? I am afraid that Miss Li Dingding alone can't take care of you?"
The Lion is the one who looks down on Li Chong the most. He heard this and said, "Mr. Li, I will also send a team member to go there. We don't care about any problems you have, but if there is any problem with Colonel Yin... Hehe, hehe..."
Not everyone is so bored. The lion laughed at Li Chong with cold words, but the tiger raised his arms to the sky and looked like it was nothing to do with him.
Li Chong was too lazy to pay attention to these people, so he turned around and walked deep into the jungle. Li Dingding smiled helplessly, raised his heels behind him, and Yin Taoyao waved his hand at everyone and followed. The prodigal cat rushed up to the treetops with a whoosh, and disappeared from everyone's sight after a few leaps.
The biggest difference between tropical rainforests and subtropical jungles is that they are lush and grow rapidly. The forest path is covered with weeds and vines without walking for a few days. Li Dingding could only carry the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword to open the way in front. The sword light flashed and the grass leaves flew. It was extremely difficult to distinguish the direction. Even during the day, the sky was covered by green shade and the sun was invisible.
Li Chong fell behind Li Dingding and teased, "You told you not to come, you must come, you will suffer this time."
Li Dingding pouted and said, "Isn't it to see monsters? I haven't seen monsters even though I've grown up so big. For safety reasons, I borrowed Zuo Songyeko's sword. Besides, if I hadn't driven in front, would you be able to walk so easily? I have no conscience!"
"That's it!" Yin Taoyao nodded and said, "It's much easier to have Ding Ding in front of you."
Li Chong sneered, "You are the same, you have to come to such a place. If you don't come, I can walk up there." As he said, Li Chong pointed to the treetops.
"Walk up? Can you fly!" Yin Taoyao asked with wide eyes.
Li Chong replied: "Of course I can fly."
Li Dingding shouted in disbelief: "Then you fly!"
Li Chong thought about it and felt that there was no danger now. Even with Li Dingding, it was enough to deal with it. He just practiced his flying ability, so he smiled and said, "Then you guys are careful, I'll wait for you in front..."
Seeing Li Chong soaringly rise up and flying to the treetops at a speed that violates the laws of physics, and floating away, Yin Taoyao said in a panic: "Ding Ding, Li Chong is really good at flying, no, this is light skills!"
Li Dingding gritted his teeth in his envy and said hatefully: "This is not light skills. Light skills will definitely not jump dozens of meters high, and Li Chong's rising speed has almost no change. If it is light skills, it will be slower and slower."
After thinking about it, Li Dingding still felt resentful and said sourly: "He is not considered a flying person, he is slow, and he is far from the one he acts on TV."
Yin Taoyao was as if he hadn't heard this, and his eyes were shining: "I want to fly so much!"
Li Dingding said angrily: "You took off all your clothes and sent them to Li Chong's bed. Maybe he can take you to fly once."
Yin Taoyao nodded subconsciously and said, "Yes... I think so too. Bai Wuchang also said that I have a fairy fate. If I can be a Taoist partner with Li Chong..."
"What a fucking fate... Bai Wuchang said that you have spiritual energy on your body. If you want to cultivate immortals, it's still the same thing." Li Dingding was very upset. Why is it not me who has the talent for cultivating immortals? With his relationship with Li Chong, it was really a family five hundred years ago. It should not be difficult to ask for some exercises.
Yin Taoyao nodded and said, "Yes, I'm also afraid that others will want me, why would I be punished when I run to this broken place?"
Li Dingding took a breath and shouted in anger: "Where is your integrity? Where is your reserve?"
Yin Taoyao said for granted: "What kind of moral integrity and reserve are needed to cultivate immortality? Besides, Li Chong is not a bad old man. If you have the chance, you won't be moved!"
Li Dingding said proudly: "I don't need it. This guy has a deep relationship with my ancestors. I want martial arts, but he dare not refuse to give it to me."
"Who is your ancestor? So powerful!" Yin Taoyao said strangely.
"The poetic fairy Li Bai, you are so awesome!" Li Dingding shouted proudly.
"It's really amazing!" Yin Taoyao nodded. She knew very well. Although her grandfather had a noble status, it was the same whether she could leave a name in the long river of history. The poet Li Bai is different. No matter how the dynasty changes, the poet Li Bai's name is a brilliant pearl in the long river of history.
Li Chong used his magic power to fly in the air on the treetops. The prodigal cat jumped under Li Chong's feet. Every time he jumped, he could jump out more than ten meters away, and his sharp claws were scratched on the tree. Seeing the prodigal cat leaping in the jungle, Li Chong was envious. The prodigal cat had four claws and one tail, with strong grasping ability and stronger balance ability. Li Chong even saw the prodigal cat flipping 180 degrees in the air, leveraging the power to leap upside down, and he could not do this no matter what.
There is a reason for Li Chong to envy the prodigal cat. Although he is flying with air control, his lasting ability is far inferior to the prodigal cat. Moreover, once the flight distance exceeds a few dozen meters, the mana consumption will increase dramatically, so Li Chong had to frequently leverage his strength to breathe on the trees, so that Li Chong's flight looks no different from long-distance leaping.
Of course, Li Chong did not consume his magic power to fly for the sake of showing off. No matter when, the four words "practice makes perfect" are the ultimate truth.
In contrast, Li Dingding and Yin Taoyao lived a hard life. It is true that Li Dingding had high martial arts skills, but no matter how powerful his martial arts skills were, Li Chong could not wield his sword endlessly to open the way. People would always be tired, even if two people took turns. Moreover, the ground in the tropical rainforest was very wet, and there were rotten leaves. It became sticky before they could walk far away.
After killing an unknown insect again, Li Dingding completely broke out, holding the sword and slashing around, shouting: "What broken place, it's too difficult to leave..."
Yin Taoyao also cried with a sad face: "I'm so tired, let's take a break."
It's no wonder that Li Dingding is very skilled in martial arts, and Yin Taoyao has undergone rigorous training, but even this cannot cover up the fact that both of them are spoiled and raising young ladies. Being able to fight and being able to endure hardships are two different things. So after two or three hours, Li Dingding and Yin Taoyao walked all morning, which made Li Chong and others very anxious.
The tropical rainforest is not all jungle covered by green shade, and occasionally you can see the clearings in the forest. Li Chong and the prodigal cat found a place with relatively sparse trees to rest, packed up some dead trees, beat two pheasants, and prepared to roast them. But until Li Chong and the prodigal cat had enough food and drink, they did not see Yin Taoyao and Li Dingding. Li Chong was a little anxious and sent the prodigal cat to go back and search.
Within half an hour, the prodigal cat came back. When Li Chong saw the prodigal cat's leisurely expression, he knew that the two women must be fine. He went to the stream to catch some fish and shrimps and grilled them slowly. It was not until after two o'clock in the afternoon that Li Dingding and Yin Taoyao appeared in front of Li Chong complained. As soon as he saw Li Chong, he started to clamor for food and rest.
The two young ladies finally came to rest. Before Li Chong Zhang Luo could go on a journey, the prodigal cat who was out for fun ran back with a hatchet in his mouth.
"Where did you find it?" Li Chong estimated that this was the knives carried by the missing villagers, so he asked hurriedly.
The prodigal cat threw down the hatchet, raised its claws and pointed to the south.
Li Chong stood up and said to Li Dingding: "You guys wait here and be careful about the situation around you. I will go to the front to see and come back soon."
The two women were eager to rest for a while, and nodded in agreement. Li Chong followed the prodigal cat to jump onto the treetops and walked all the way.
About five minutes later, a fishy smell came faintly, and the prodigal cat rushed down to the ground, and Li Chong also fell down. The ground was full of rotten leaves and weeds, and there were signs of turning in the middle of the fallen leaves. Like a ditches, it was obvious that someone or an animal passed by, and he was walking or crawling along the ground.
Walking along the traces, Li Chong soon discovered that the scattered berries and herbs were becoming more and more intense. Li Chong was almost certain that it was a human being who passed by. Although he could not feel any dangerous aura, Li Chong was still very cautious in pulling out Liu Caijian and releasing his divine thoughts.
