"It's a fat, big, long worm, like an earthworm." said the Fire-eating Nine Palace Bird: "I and Wren Bao found it at the same time. We originally planned to catch it and eat it, but we didn't expect that this guy slipped away.

It's so fast, it slipped into a crack in the ground and didn't come out."

Hearing this, the girls were all amused: "So it's to catch insects."

"Don't laugh, don't laugh. For birds, catching insects is a top priority. Okay, I'll help." Guan Heng said with a smile, then looked around and asked: "Which crack in the ground is it?"

?I'll help you two take it out."

"Chirp, chirp, chirp." The little golden wren raised its head and screamed, indicating that it was always looking at the gap, and then pointed it to Guan Heng. He nodded and said: "Okay, that's it, just wait a moment."

After saying that, Guan Heng stepped forward, stretched out his hand and gently touched the gap on the ground, "Whoosh!" In an instant, a burst of earth spirit energy rushed in, and he heard a "swish" sound coming from the crack in the ground.

There was a loud noise, and immediately after, a frightened fat insect squirmed out in a hurry.

This guy is about five inches long. He is indeed extremely fat, and the patterns on his body are very strange and dazzling.

"Hey, it's interesting." After saying that, Guan Heng reached out and picked up the insect. Jiugongque said hurriedly: "Brother, give it to me, I want to eat it!"

"Wait a minute, let me observe it." Guan Heng said to it: "Maybe I can find more similar fat insects in the future, so that you and the little golden wren can have a full meal."

"Well... ok, we've made an agreement." Jiugong Que blinked, but his greedy mind got the better of him, so he quickly nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Qing Huang, Qian Xin and other sisters also gathered around. Ruotao said: "Hey, this little insect is quite beautiful, and the pattern seems to be very special. What does it look like?"

Suddenly, the beast soul of Hao Bo came close to the side and said loudly: "Does this earthworm-like insect have pupils-like patterns on its surface?"

"Pupils? Hey, just like you said, they really look alike!" An Yan took a closer look and then said this. Guan Heng glanced at Hao Xi and asked, "Do you know this kind of insect?"

"Yes, I do know him." The Hao Beast Soul nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that I could still see him these days. This insect is called 'Pupillary Spirit Earthworm'. It was quite common in ancient times because it has

The pattern resembles the pupil of an eye, hence the name.”

"Back then, there was a lot of pupil-striped spirit earthworms. Almost immediately after the rain, when the soil was moist, they would flow out like a tide. All spirit birds and creatures liked to eat them, and small spirit beasts would also dig them when food was scarce.

Dig out the soil and eat.”

Having said this, Hao Xun sighed and continued: "However, due to frequent natural disasters, this spiritual earthworm gradually became extinct."

"But it appeared here." Guan Heng thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because the crust here has less changes, right?"

"Yes, that's it." Hao Xiu Beast Soul suggested: "Master Guan, it's a good thing to meet the pupil-marked spirit earthworm here. For the spirit bird chicks, this guy is a rare nutritious food. You should get it."

These have multiplied in the Ethereal Toad Cauldron."

"And spirit earthworms reproduce as a single entity. As long as the soil is fertile, they will reproduce faster."

"Very good, then let's search nearby and collect as much as we can." As he said that, Guan Heng handed the pupil-marked spirit earthworm in his hand to Jiugongque: "Here, you and Little Golden Wren share this.

Then look for more, no matter where they escape, I can catch them for you."

"Very good!"

"Chew oh, chew oh!"

When the chicks and golden wrens heard this, they both jumped for joy.

"Since it's a good thing, let's help find it."

As the flaming golden eagle spoke, he winked at the gray-feathered ibis, flying antelope, bat-winged owl-faced bear and crazy poisonous ant queen. Everyone immediately cheered and started to take action.

My companions are so easy to do. In a short time, the Golden Eagle and the Nine Palace Sparrows found several nests of pupil-marked earthworms. There were dozens of large and small ones. Moreover, the earthworms were also very honest and knew that they could not escape.

, and being covered by the spiritual energy exhaled by the Earth Palace Toad, I felt very comfortable and simply stopped moving.

Not long after, everyone divided two-thirds of the hundreds of pupil-marked spirit earthworms collected and put them into the toad cauldron space. The remaining spirit birds and other companions ate them separately and feasted on them.

…

After a while, the gray-brown demon hedgehogs who transported the loess ore gradually returned one after another. Soon, the demon mandrill also came back with the last batch of helpers.

After that, everyone began to look for new mine targets. After looking at the terrain map in their hands, Guan Heng suddenly let out a sigh, and Qing Huang next to him asked: "What's wrong?"

"This map marks the location of the mine, and there is a white skull drawn next to it. It seems to show the danger here and remind others not to go there."

"Hahaha, are there any dangers that can stump us? It's really funny." Ruotao pursed her lips and said, "Sir, the more this picture says so, the more we should hurry over and take a look."

"Haha, that's what I mean." After Guan Heng said this, he rolled up the animal skin topographic map, and then said: "Let's go, let's go to this so-called 'dangerous place' and have a look." In this way, Guan Heng led everyone

The companions hurried towards that area.

…

After a while, he was near the dangerous area indicated on the map. "I haven't figured out whether there is any danger here, but the road is definitely difficult to walk on."

Ruotao said this while looking at the uneven stones on the ground.

"This is easy to solve. Let the Stone Turtle walk in front. It can crush the stones in front of it with every step it takes. If we continue walking, we won't feel uncomfortable."

Guan Heng said: "As for the narrow passage, there is also the curly-haired Bigfoot. Its big feet can crush it even if it steps on iron blocks, not to mention stepping on stones to open the way."

"Hahaha, that's a good thing." After hearing this, the girls all nodded in agreement. Then, Guan Heng signaled to the Stone Turtle Beast, and Bigfoot walked in front to open the way, followed closely by himself and his other companions.

.

At this moment, the white-browed old monkey and the big-headed monkey were jumping up and down on the stone walls on both sides of the nearby passage, looking left and right. The mandrill said: "Hey, you two haven't given up yet? Maybe those guys were just passing by.

, if you want to settle accounts with them, you can only rely on luck."

It turns out that just now, when everyone was walking to a nearby passage, a group of white-billed bats suddenly passed by in the air. The other party was not having a good time when they were passing by. They tried to make some tricks and harassed the old monkey and Yong Xiao, but they beat them to death in anger.

Several white-billed bats.
