Xu Qingmo sprinted all the way to the summit of Qiu Ming Shan at an extremely fast speed, while his heart was filled with suspicions.

At the start, Xu Qingmo thought that it was only because of the good feng shui of this place that such a strange beast was born from luck and coincidence. However, now that Xu Qingmo saw the human secret base in the middle of the mountain, this thought was immediately shattered.

Xu Qingmo could call the Black Phoenix, but he had only thought of that idea and did not really call it to ask.

Very quickly, Xu Qingmo arrived at the temple at the peak of Qiu Ming Shan.

Xu Qingmo did not go find the management staff of the temple. If he were to pass through them, he would definitely record the snake venom in various records. The trouble was that Xu Qingmo could not explain why he had used the venom for an ape to use.

Therefore, Xu Qingmo quietly went in and checked once more. He found the place where the snake venom was stored and immediately stole it, then quietly retreated.

After getting the serum, Xu Qingmo immediately rushed back to the secret base. Lin Ruochu and the giant ape were waiting.

Xu Qingmo took out the snake venom and injected it into the little ape. Xu Qingmo didn't know what to do next, he could only look at the little ape's vitality.

The little ape's vitality was definitely higher than Yunshu's. However, the Fire Blue Saber Python was the one who bit it, and not a Ceratophyllus ceruleus that could be compared by biting Yunshu.

The giant ape waited by the little ape's side without leaving a single step. Xu Qingmo and Lin Ruochu did not disturb it either and walked out to inspect the other parts of the secret base.

The two of them used their phones as a flashlight and searched the two rows of rooms. They found that most of the rooms were dorms, some were bigger cafeteria, and some were bathrooms. They were all abandoned and abandoned.

The only thing left was the two ends of the tunnel.

The two of them looked at each other, and then first came to the left passageway.

There were no lights in the passage, it was completely dark. The light on the phone was not enough, so Xu Qingmo and Lin Ruochu could only stick close to the wall and move forward bit by bit.

The tunnel was empty. There was nothing there. When he reached the end, he was blocked by a pile of stones.

Xu Qingmo gave the phone to Lin Ruochu, and checked it himself up and down.

"It was purposely blown up from the outside to block the passage." Xu Qingmo clapped his hands, "It seems that the people inside were in a bit of a hurry to retreat, but we still have time to prepare the explosives."

"This is the exit passage." Lin Ruochu said, "Then, the key to the underground base is here."

"At the end of another passage." Xu Qingmo said, "But our phone is not good, I will make a torch."

As Xu Qingmo said this, he brought Lin Ruochu back to the great hall and took a few quilts from the dormitories. Then, he took out some wine and wooden sticks from the canteen and made them into two torches.

With torches in hand, the two of them walked into the passage on the right.

This passageway was still very empty. However, at the end of it was a large iron gate.

Xu Qingmo tried to pull it, but it just wouldn't budge. He then went to find a switch, but he couldn't find anything.

"It's made of steel, at least a few tons." Xu Qingmo shook his head, "Unless that giant ape comes over to help us, we won't have any hope of entering."

Lin Ruochu looked at Xu Qingmo, but did not say a word, and only walked to the side of the door and pushed.

In the next moment, the iron gate rumbled open.

Xu Qingmo was shocked at first, but then, his face filled with shame.

Lin Ruochu revealed a rare proud expression, and then, she walked into the iron gate.

Using the light from the torch, Xu Qingmo could roughly see that this was yet another large space. Although it was not as big as the large hall from before, it was still not small.

Just as Xu Qingmo wanted to take the torch to see what was inside, he stretched out his hand again and pressed down on something with a "Pa" sound.

"Be careful!" Xu Qingmo hurriedly said.

However, in the next moment, beams of light lit up the entire room.

Xu Qingmo was embarrassed once again, the lighting equipment inside were not damaged.

Xu Qingmo was also stunned, there was actually a huge laboratory inside.

Obviously, there had been some sort of experiment done here before, but it had long since been abandoned.

What Xu Qingmo noticed was that right in front of him, there was a large petri dish that was as big as a whole wall. A gigantic glass wall covered the entire wall, and at the bottom, there was even a small half of the water.

Through the green water, Xu Qingmo could see that on the opposite wall, there was a fist-sized hole. The green water seeped out from this hole.

However, he did not know whether this hole had been dug by hand or something in this petri dish.

Besides the largest petri dish, there were other petri dishes that were slightly smaller.

Xu Qingmo walked over and saw that one of them had some plants growing inside, but they were all withered and could not be identified as a variety.

"Is this the Snake Kiss Flower you were talking about?" Lin Ruochu suddenly said.

Xu Qingmo turned his head to look, only to see Lin Ruochu standing in front of a cabinet, holding onto an old piece of information.

Walking in front, he saw that Lin Ruochu was looking at a cultivation log, it recorded every day's cultivation, what was good growth, if she was sick she would spray medicine, and there was even withering.

However, inside this diary, the plants were called anaconda s. On the first page, there was a drawing of a flower, it was exactly the same as the Snake-Necked Flowers that Xu Qingmo had mentioned to him before.

"Right, so it's called a anaconda!" Xu Qingmo asked, "Are anaconda cultivated by humans?"

Xu Qingmo looked at the date on the diary again, but there was only a "1 day, 2 day" written on it, there was no specific date.

This method of recording was in an old-fashioned secret record. It was to record the starting date on the first page and the date on the second day, so that in case of any situation, as long as the first page was torn apart, no one would be able to know the exact date corresponding to the date on the first day.

When Xu Qingmo went to look at the first page, he saw that the starting point was where it had rotted and disappeared. He did not know if it was because it had rotted and disappeared, or if it was torn off by someone, before it started to rot.

"There's another one here." Lin Ruochu said, then took out a diary from the cabinet.

Xu Qingmo looked at the first page, where the date was recorded, it was still rotten, seems like it was really torn apart.

Opening the log, sure enough, it was a record regarding Ceratophyllus ceruleus.

However, in the diary, Ceratophyllus ceruleus are called blue snake.

Flipping through the log, it was still some ordinary records, but he couldn't see anything.

Closing the diary, Xu Qingmo and Lin Ruochu started searching again, but unfortunately, the cabinet was empty and there weren't any other records.

Xu Qingmo went to the petri dish next to the anaconda and checked. As expected, he found two Ceratophyllus ceruleus s that had become dried up corpses long ago.

Looks like this was indeed the place to cultivate Ceratophyllus ceruleus and Snake-Necked Flowers. Xu Qingmo sized up the entire laboratory, there were many things he did not understand. Who exactly built this place, why did they cultivate the Snake-Necked Flowers and Ceratophyllus ceruleus, and what was the key to why they were abandoned?

This place didn't look like it was invaded. Judging from the traces of explosions at the end of the exit passage, the people who exited weren't in a hurry. They would have time to set up the explosives and take away the key information in the laboratory.

Xu Qingmo shook his head: "It doesn't seem to have any special effect. The Snake-Necked Flowers can make people become drunk, but I don't know the exact reason why it was triggered."

Xu Qingmo thought of the Yunshu, Song Qingyin, and his class monitor from back then.

The first two had become drunk after picking the Snake-Kiss Flowers, but the class monitor had picked a bunch in one go, but nothing happened.

"As for the Ceratophyllus ceruleus, we only know that it is poisonous. Even if we bite the Yunshu, we would still be able to see the little ape outside. We are not sure of the specific conditions, so we cannot see what value these two have in cultivating it." Xu Qingmo continued.

"Oh yeah, I've seen the Snake-Necked Flowers and Ceratophyllus ceruleus overseas." Xu Qingmo thought about it, "However, some biologists have studied it and did not find the intoxicating ability of the Snake-Necked Flower, nor the poison of the Ceratophyllus ceruleus."

Xu Qingmo frowned: "It can't be, this flower and this snake are originally just normal companions, it's just that they are rather rare, and only after going through training here, do they have that kind of ability."

Previously, it was very likely that Lin Youxi's class rep was a venomous Snake-Necked Flowers, while Yunshu and Song Qingyin were venomous. This explains why their states were different after they were harvested.

Lin Ruochu pointed to the biggest petri dish in the middle.

Xu Qingmo was startled, what was in the petri dish?

Looking at the petri dish, it was extremely huge. If there really was something inside, it definitely wasn't anything small.

Could it be that Xu Qingmo remembered the white python in the deep pool outside?

Could it be that the white python was also born in this lab, in this petri dish?

Xu Qingmo thought, it was not impossible!

"What is this?" Lin Ruochu spoke again.
