People in Zong Tomb, Jieling Pirates

Chapter 152 Biological chain?

But he couldn't see why, so after pretending to glance at it for a few times, he didn't bother to think about it anymore, and turned around and asked: "Mr. Chen, what kind of treasure do you have?"

Wang Kaixuan is not like Hu Bayi. He likes to think about everything by himself first. He will only ask if he really can't figure it out. He usually asks first as a courtesy.

After Chen Ziyan heard Wang Kaixuan's words, he looked around at the people around him and saw that they also showed expectant looks, so he calmly said the words he had prepared:

"This thing may not look like much, but it is eight times more serious than a treasure. As long as it is placed in a specific direction, it will form an area containing special frequencies, which can effectively expel snakes, insects, rats, and ants in the mountains and forests. It can be said that it is the best for home travel.

First choice.”

When he said the word "rat", he could also emphasize his tone.

Obviously, what just happened is the best proof.

Although they were still a little confused, looking at Chen Ziyan's serious expression and the situation just now, most people still chose to believe what he said.

After all, this rhetoric has its own logic.

However, Shirley Yang didn't quite believe Chen Ziyan's words. Her eyes looked back and forth between Chen Ziyan and the columns, with a hint of surprise flashing across her eyes from time to time.

In fact, not only Shirley Yang, but also Black Glasses and Hu Bayi are not so easy to believe, but the difference between them and Shirley Yang is that they may be familiar with other aspects, but they are thorough in technology.

A layman at the bottom.

Among other things, these six columns were full of modern technology in terms of shape and material, so they gave them the illusion that they were some kind of high-tech instrument they had never heard of.

But Shirley Yang is completely different. The nature of her work and background are destined to make her very familiar with today's cutting-edge technology, especially this kind of weapon that sounds like it is made for the outdoors. There is no reason why Miss Yang would connect the dots.

No news was received.

In view of this situation, when she made a judgment, her conclusion was exactly the opposite of Hu Bayi's. The first thing she excluded was technology.

After excluding scientific and technological instruments, Shirley Yang naturally thought of the fact that her grandfather, Partridge Whistle, once told some secrets about the world.

If it were anyone else, they would probably just regard those things as rumors, but who is her grandfather? Many of the so-called rumors are his personal experiences.

In addition, their family belongings from the Qishan lineage were placed there, so Shirley Yang knew very well that although some things seemed illusory, they actually existed.

For example——

Thinking of this, she subconsciously touched the pendant on her body.

Shirley Yang, who was sure that this was definitely not a technological product, immediately thought that this metallic cylinder should be some kind of disguise.

But she didn't mean to expose it directly, and she could understand her defensiveness.

What's more, none of this kind of thing is a priceless treasure. If they were to expose it rashly, they would probably lose half their number when they left here.

While Shirley Yang was thinking to herself, others had already focused their attention on the island in the middle of the lake not far away.

At this time, the situation on the island has entered a new stage.

Just now, the rats took advantage of the mayfly's metamorphosis and successfully caught them off guard. However, it is true that mayflies are fragile, but the specific situation depends on the species. Obviously, the mayflies here are different.

Although they can't compare to these big rats in terms of size, in a multi-on-one situation, it's still no problem to barely fight against them.

Especially as more and more mayflies successfully complete their transformation, they take up the convenience of mobility and pose a great obstacle to the incoming rats.

Seeing the anxious battle situation on the island in the center of the lake, everyone, including Chen Ziyan, didn't know what to say for a moment.

I can only lament from the bottom of my heart that nature is really cruel.

The fighting between the groups did not last long. Although the number of mayflies was huge, it was still unable to outweigh the differences in individual strength. Soon, the mayflies that had not had time to complete their transformation were devoured by the seemingly endless swarm of rats.

.

Seeing that the situation was over, the mayflies hovering in the air did not choose to get entangled, but directly left here together.

And after these mayflies left, the rats that almost occupied the entire underground lake began to retreat in an orderly manner along the way they came, as if they had made an agreement.

It feels like you are having a meal on your own.

In the blink of an eye, the crowded underground lake returned to calm again, leaving only the rat corpses scattered all over the island in the center of the lake, telling the story just now.

People in the camp did not expect that the plot would develop like this. They all looked at the island in the middle of the lake blankly, and there was no movement for a long time.

There is no way, this plot is too exciting and compact, it is normal for me to not be able to relax for a while.

After a while, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but speak out first: "Let me tell you, let's move to another place. Why does this place feel so unsafe?"

Even though he is incredibly courageous, he doesn't want to be neighbors with so many rats. Just thinking about it makes him feel sick, okay?

It is true that Wang Kaixuan is not afraid of rats, but no one would ignore a rat of this size.

Hu Bayi also agreed: "Yes, the fat man is right, this place is indeed a bit infiltrative!"

Although their ancestors were related to rats and their family had always enshrined the Gray Fairy as the family fairy, Hu Bayi felt that it was better to be cautious at this time.

Who knows if this gopher will recognize him as an out-of-towner?

If we can't establish a relationship, I'm afraid the result won't be much better. Those ephemera can serve as a warning to others.

Shirley Yang nodded first, then shook her head: "But where can we go? The entire underground should be the activity area of ​​these rats. Unless we pack up and leave now, we will inevitably have to deal with them."

Even Wang Kaixuan, a brave pioneer, felt uncomfortable. No matter how brave she was as a woman, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.

But her calmness kept her rational, knowing that they had no better choice now.

I could see clearly just now that these rats were pouring out from almost every corner, which showed that the other party's activity area was very wide.

At this moment, Ye Yixin suddenly pointed in the direction of the island in the middle of the lake and exclaimed: "Look!"

Everyone looked at the sound and felt their hairs trembling.

I saw countless strange black snakes coming from nowhere on the island in the middle of the lake that had just become silent, and were leisurely devouring rat carcasses.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ziyan couldn't help but shout: "Ecological chain?"

That's right, this was the word that came to mind when Chen Ziyan saw these strange snakes.

Other than that, he really couldn't think of anything else that could better explain all of this.

Wang Kaixuan looked at him in confusion and asked in a low voice: 'Mr. Chen, what do you mean by this chain?'

"I mean, there should be a complete ecological chain here!" Chen Ziyan replied.

Then he explained to everyone: "Mayflies, rats, and snakes, when connected together in this way, form a stable small ecological chain."

"Although it's a bit far-fetched, it makes sense." Shirley Yang thought for a while and said.

Chen Ziyan did not explain too much to her, but turned to everyone and said: "Now we don't have time to linger too much. We must complete our goals as soon as possible. I have decided to divide our forces into two groups!"

Chen Ziyan's words successfully attracted everyone's attention.

When they all looked over, they heard him continue: "There are two caves at the stone bridge where we landed, one is where we are, and what is in the other is unknown for the time being."

"Now you have seen the situation. If we stay here for one more minute, we may be in more danger. We must speed up the exploration. The basic exploration has been completed in the underground palace. As long as we are careful, it should be fine."

Having said this, Chen Ziyan looked at Professor Chen: "Professor, you take the people to complete the exploration of the underground palace as soon as possible. How about I take some people to the other side to have a look?"

Although it was a question, you could tell from his tone that Chen Ziyan's words were an order, and there was no possibility of Professor Chen refusing.

Professor Chen naturally understood this and nodded immediately: "No problem."

He knew very well that at this point, his opinion no longer mattered.

At this moment, Hao Aiguo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Captain Chen, if this is the case, will our strength be too spread out? What should we do if we encounter danger?"

While he was talking, he looked specifically in the direction of the island in the middle of the lake.

Obviously, this is what is meant.

In fact, this is also an unavoidable problem. Not to mention anything else, the rats and snakes alone are a huge hidden danger in this place.

"I will not change the layout of the camp. My things can effectively prevent snakes, insects, rats, and ants. When the time comes, no matter where we are in danger, we can run back here to avoid it." Chen Ziyan said confidently.

He is very confident in his precious domain device, and it is absolutely no problem to circle a small shelter.

In fact, what he didn't say was that with this set of treasures, it would be no problem for them to stay for a few more days.

But he has other plans, and now he is just taking advantage of them.

Chen Ziyan seemed to be ignoring the three students along the way, but that didn't mean he would always let them go. He was just waiting for a suitable opportunity.

And now there is a good opportunity in front of us, and that is the tomb of Queen Jingjue.

The hallucinogenic ability of corpse-scented konjac is much stronger than that of his little fairy. It will be easy to find out what you want with a little guidance.

Chen Ziyan had just been thinking about how to properly bring people into the tomb, but he didn't expect a good opportunity to come to his door so soon.

Of course he won't miss it easily!

After hearing Chen Ziyan's method, others thought about it and thought it was very reliable.

Hao Aiguo naturally had no objection. Strictly speaking, this was biased towards them to a certain extent.

After all, compared to Chen Ziyan's goal, their exploration in the underground palace was closer to the camp.

You know, when encountering danger, distance is the key factor in whether you can escape.

As for whether Chen Ziyan's treasure is really effective, even if some people have doubts, no one will ask directly. Even in the bottom of their hearts, they are secretly praying that this thing is really effective.

There is no way, this place is now inhabited by both rats and snakes, no one wants to be targeted and have no place to hide.

Chen Ziyan's set of things had just been successful once, which gave them some confidence.

As for pure resistance...

Although there are many of them and they have weapons at their side, it also depends on what they are facing.

For a group of rats and snakes of that size, even if their number were doubled, they might not be able to have any effect.

As for firearms, they are better than nothing. If these creatures swarm them, they will probably not be as effective as cold weapons.

The matter was settled like this, and no one raised any other opinions.

After all, the reality is before us, and no one would be stupid enough to deliberately delay time to verify whether these creatures are hostile to them.

Afterwards, the team was quickly reorganized. Professor Chen led Hao Aiguo to continue studying the underground palace, with black glasses responsible for protecting them.

Chen Ziyan led the rest of the people to the other end of the stone bridge to explore the situation in the cave.

In fact, Chen Ziyan still wanted to keep Shirley Yang, but this girl would not listen to him and strongly expressed her intention to go together.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan didn't say much. If he had to go, then go.

As for Sa Di Peng, Ye Yixin and Chu Jian, they are considered tools sent by Professor Chen.

Of course, even if Professor Chen doesn't send, Chen Ziyan will find a way to bring the three of them.

He still planned to use the illusion of Corpse Incense Magic Yu later to find out their true origins.

Move as soon as you say, without too much delay. After the black monster snakes also receded, the two teams set off separately.

Professor Chen naturally has nothing to say. He only needs to study the remaining items and murals in the underground palace and extract useful information.

The main reason is the team led by Chen Ziyan.

Chen Ziyan, the heavily armed Hu Bayi, and Wang Kaixuan walked in front of the team to clear the way, and behind them were three students, with Shirley Yang and Wushuang Ghost taking charge of the rear.

At the beginning, Chen Ziyan actually planned to leave Wushuang Ghost to look after the house, but after thinking about it, he gave up the plan.

Others didn't know whether the rats would come again, but he knew something about it. He knew that these rats would not show up easily. After all, they were not at the top of the food chain here.

What's more, his domain device is no joke, and the camp is the safest place.

The journey to the cave at the other end went smoothly. There were huge rocks under the gate, leaving enough space for them to pass through smoothly.

Not long after entering the cave, they came to the edge of a platform.

When the searchlight's light shone down to the bottom of the platform, everyone exclaimed. Under the light, a bright light lit up below.

There was a mountain of treasures, including gold, silver, jade, agate and precious stones, which could blind one's eyes.

Just when Chen Ziyan wanted to take a closer look, he felt a sense of trance, and the slight sting in his eyes made him couldn't help but close his eyes.

If other people look at him, they will find that his straight eyebrows have turned red at this time.

Although Chen Ziyan's bloodline does not have an overly conspicuous effect, it does enhance himself quite a lot, so the illusion is no longer unsolvable for him.

It was precisely with this confidence that Chen Ziyan dared to enter the tomb of Queen Jingjue.

At this time, Chen Ziyan took a closer look and found that there was still a mountain of treasures below. It was just that there were some gold, silver and jade utensils on the surface. Under those gold and jade utensils, there was a surging snake trap.

The snakes in the snake hall were the strange snakes they had just seen. These strange snakes were gathering under the gold and silverware, swimming their bodies constantly, and their dense hissing sounds made people's scalp numb.

After subconsciously taking a step back, Chen Ziyan looked around at the people around him and found that except for the Wushuang Ghost, there was nothing strange about them. The rest of them had expressions of wonder on their faces, and they had obviously fallen into an illusion.
