C212 (1/2)
After taking a few steps, my body swayed and I felt a little dizzy. I tried my best to act as if nothing had happened and adjusted my condition. It seemed that the heavy blow from before had really affected my body.
Yue Feng was the first to notice that something was wrong with me. He asked softly, ”Big Sis Su Su, I felt that you were weird since the beginning. Are you alright?”
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I still decided to tell him about it first. ”That heavy blow just now, I seemed to have been severely injured by it. Right now, my internal organs are feeling very uncomfortable, and my head is also very dizzy. I don't know how long I can persevere …”
”Then why didn't you say so earlier? You can rest for a bit and recover from your injuries.
”I feel that we can't delay this matter any longer. I don't know how long it will take for me to recover from my injuries.”
”Hey, you're forcing me into the forest, what should I do if something happens?”
”It doesn't matter. I think I can at least hold on for a while longer. Before dawn, we must find one.”
The deeper we go into the forest, the more we find that this place is not normal. At night, the forest is filled with many fireflies that sparkle with a yellowish green light. Although there is no torch, but we can clearly see that these fireflies seem to be intelligent.
”Is that the quagmire ahead?” Zi Lang asked.
”You said that there seems to be nothing special about that pool?”
”I have been on the battlefield for a long time. Sometimes, I have passed through all sorts of strange environments. Based on my experience, even though it was just a lake, it should be a man-eating swamp!”
This was way too dangerous. If there was someone who didn't know about this, they would most likely be caught. I carefully walked into the swamp. As expected, when I looked at the bottom of the swamp, it wasn't clear water but muddy water.
The muddy water was churning non-stop. He wondered if the legendary acute earthworm was right under there.
Yue Feng pinched his nose: ”Forgive me for my bluntness, but how big is a Loach? Even if it's poison, we should have a way to deal with it, right? ”
Zi Lang shook his head: ”Don't think that it's too simple. Although it's called a loach, it's probably not the size we imagined. I've seen a thousand-year-old giant python before, its body is already four to five floors high.”
I also agreed, ”That's right, the monsters here probably aren't from the same year or two. To be able to live this long, they must be very huge. I think we should leave as soon as possible and get it to bite us. We should all be poisoned to death.”
I felt like I was really being unlucky. Before I could finish my sentence, a huge snake about two meters long and as thick as a tree trunk drilled out from the bottom of the pond and attacked us.
Judging from the size of the monster, it must be a giant earthworm! I was cursing in my heart at the time. That brother really didn't tell us clearly, the so-called earthworms are all this big!
Moreover, this earthworm's entire body is emitting a yellow-green poison aura. The moment I feel it pouncing towards me, I already feel uncomfortable all over. If I were to be bitten by it, I would probably die on the spot from the poison!
”Run! Leave the swamp!” Yue Feng shouted as he ran out while hugging me by the waist.
That earthworm's speed is extremely fast, if it wasn't for Yue Feng carrying me, I probably would have been chased to the top of Zi Lang's Qing-Yun Realm before being able to escape in such a sorry state.
Heavens, what was this thing that frightened him? Die for me! Startled, I can't be bothered with my image of a lady anymore as I sit on the floor and caress my chest non-stop.
”Can that thing really be called an earthworm?” ”Such a big earthworm?” Yue Feng also had a face full of shock.
”It's not a problem whether he's big or not. The problem is that his entire body is emitting poisonous gas. I really wonder, why would such a monster appear under this quagmire?” At this point, I felt even more uncomfortable.
However, Zi Lang muttered to himself for a moment: ”I've seen such records in an ancient book. They were shaped like earthworms, had a length of seven feet, and were as thick as a tree trunk …”
”What?” You read about it in an ancient book? You are already a person from a thousand years ago. Didn't you say that the ancient tree was thousands of years ago? ”Does that mean this thing existed thousands of years ago?” Yue Feng shouted.
”I feel that the things should be more or less the same. The things written on that ancient book might not be the same one that we saw with our own eyes. However, in the process of his cultivation, he seemed to have swallowed a strange endosperm, and turned himself into a poisonous substance. ”
Then what do you mean? What you see in the book should be this thing in front of you... The monster from thousands of years ago was still alive and well. Could it be that its lifespan was limitless? I said weakly.
”I feel that his long lifespan should be related to his physique. There are all kinds of poison in his body, so much so that his body is emitting poisonous gas. It has completely changed the condition of his body.” Zi Lang seemed to be carefully recalling the records on that ancient book.
Yue Feng hurriedly shook his head, ”It's better if we don't have any ideas about this earthworm. I think even if all three of us die, we won't be his match, let alone taking him back with us …”
