Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan are not afraid of this snake forest. They have found out the situation of the snake forest in the past five days.
For some unknown reason, the snakes can only entangle themselves in the trees. As long as they clear a path, the snakes in the snake forest will not be a problem. They can easily pass through. The more troublesome thing is the snake cave behind the snake forest.
"Why don't we set the fire?" Gu Qiancheng gave very constructive opinions.
They have a kind of fire in their hands. It's not too difficult to set a fire. The difficulty is to put the fire behind the snake forest.
"I'll try." Qin Jiyan can't think of a better way, so he can only try to attack with fire.
They collected a lot of firewood. Qin Jiyan made it into a big bag. Then he carried the bag through the snake forest and threw the hay to the snake cave and the fire.
"Poof..." When the fire came into contact with the hay, it ignited immediately. As soon as the wind blew, the hay around it was also ignited, but the flame was very small. It was absolutely ridiculous to roast one or two snakes and kill the snakes in the snake cave.
Qin Jiyan shakes his head and uses the branches as a sword. He cuts down several trees and throws them into the snake cave. Only the leaves are easy to burn, but the branches just cut down are not easy to burn. The fire goes out soon.
Qin Jiyan didn't give up. He found more hay and cut down more branches to support the fire. In this way, the fire started immediately, but the problem came again
Affected by the high temperature, the snakes in the snake cave slowly climb out. The whole mountain is full of snakes, but Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng can't set fire to the whole mountain.
"It seems that the fire attack will not work. We can't burn the whole mountain." Gu Qiancheng looks depressed.
They are short of something to support combustion, so they have no way to set fire on a large scale.
"Well," Qin Jiyan nodded solemnly. Thinking of the picture he had seen before, he frowned slightly. After a moment's meditation, he said, "those snakes disperse immediately when they meet the fire. When the fire goes out, they come back immediately. It seems that they can't leave the snake cave, or what's behind the stone gate that makes them stay outside?"
"You say guardian?" Gu Qiancheng couldn't help picking his eyebrows when he heard this.
Are snakes that smart?
"It's not like guarding, it's like waiting for something." Qin Jiyan thought of the snake's reaction. He had a guess in his heart, but he was not sure. It's hard to say now.
"I'm not interested in snakes. I just want to go out now." After being trapped for seven or eight days, Gu Qiancheng was more and more worried.
People outside didn't hear from them. Maybe they thought they were dead. She's OK. She can't influence the overall situation. However, Qin Jiyan is different. He's the emperor's grandson now. If he doesn't show up for a long time, it will definitely cause unrest in the imperial court if someone wants to find out.
"There is no other way for the moment. We can only start from that stone gate." Qin Jiyan tried to take two steps forward, and found that as soon as he stepped forward, the snakes in the snake forest began to spit out messages to him, which was very defensive. As soon as he stepped back, the snakes in the tree calmed down again.
After several repeated attempts, Qin Jiyan boldly said, "thousand cities, maybe there is something in this place where we stand that snakes can't find us."
They thought it was a matter of distance. If they are too close to each other, the snake thinks that they are threatened, so it will put on a defensive posture; if they are too far away, the snake will ignore them, but now it seems that it is not the snake who is on guard against them, but they retreat, and the snake can't find them.
When Gu Qiancheng heard this, he took a step forward and found that things were really like what Qin Jiyan said, "is there anything special in this place?"
"Look for it."
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng look for each other separately. They have pulled out different grasses and tried stones one by one, but none of them are.
"We're almost out of grass." Gu Qiancheng was very tired after a busy day and sat down on the ground.
Qin Jiyan is a little better, but his eyebrows and eyes are tired.
The longer they stay in the abandoned city, the less likely they are to go out.
Of course, the more likely there is to be trouble outside.
"It's not grass, it's not stone. What would it be?" Gu Qiancheng grabs a handful of grass and pulls it up with the soil. The black soil falls on him, rolls twice and falls on the ground
Gu Qiancheng looked at the nail sized soil with wide eyes, "Qin Qin Jiyan, I seem to have found out. "
"What?" Qin Jiyan turned to ask.
"Look Earth, is this earth different? " Gu Qiancheng pointed to the earth on the ground with bright eyes.
"Earth?" Qin Jiyan took a look and found nothing different. Of course, he won't touch his highness Yiqin's little habit of cleanliness.
"It's earth. You see, the earth is red. " Gu Qiancheng was not afraid of dirt. He picked up the small piece of soil at his feet and handed it to Qin Jiyan. "Red soil is not common. Maybe it's really a problem of soil."
"Is it?" Qin Jiyan is not sure, but Gu Qiancheng is interested, "I don't know, but we can try, dig the land in front to compare."
Gu Qiancheng said he would do as soon as he could. He grabbed a stone and walked forward. He stopped at the distance where the snake would find them and dug out a piece of soil. The soil was also red, butGu Qiancheng carefully smelled the taste of the two pieces of land, and was sure that the soil composition of the two pieces of land was different. He even tasted a little, and the soil pH of the two pieces of land was also different.
Gu Qiancheng was surprised and said, "Your Highness, the soil of these two lands is really different. Maybe it's really a matter of soil."
"Is it?" Qin Jiyan's mouth is slightly puffed. He feels that the whole person is not good.
Is Gu Qiancheng hungry enough to eat earth?
"What's the matter with you? Are you not happy? " Gu Qiancheng later realized that something was wrong with Qin Jiyan. Thinking of Qin Jiyan's little habit of cleanliness, he couldn't help laughing and saying, "Your Highness, you can't accept it. Can I taste the taste of earth?"
Well, Gu Qiancheng herself can't accept it. If she didn't have instruments to analyze the composition of the two kinds of soil, she would not have done so.
"Cough, it's not..." Qin Jiyan awkwardly turned away from the topic and said, "since you think it's related to the soil whether the snake attacks us, what shall we do next?
Gu Qiancheng laughed and said nothing more.
When she was under special training, she ate mud from time to time. In order to survive, Gu Qiancheng never cared about this small problem.
Gu Qiancheng raised his hand and said, "if it's really because of the soil problem, we will arm us with the soil, and then try to cross the snake forest. If the snakes in the snake forest don't attack us because of the soil, the snakes in the snake cave will not attack us. "
In other words, they have to roll in the mud, get all covered in mud, and then go to the snake Cave
