Compared with forest landforms, rainforest landforms have flat terrain and rare mountains.
The scale of this valley is not large. With more than 200 people and a large amount of materials, it has become narrow.
The small valley is shaded with trees, and a large number of vegetation, shrubs, and vines are next to each other, layer by layer.
Except for the small empty land in the center, almost all other places are covered by green branches and leaves.
In the mountains of the small valley, there are large and small natural caves, deep or shallow, which are the residence of natural gifts.
There is also a spring in the valley, which is a stable freshwater resource of high value. It is also the main reason why people in the first camp choose to move here.
Unfortunately, the mysterious killer also followed.
After moving here, a dozen people have mysteriously disappeared in the valley. They must be in bad luck.
After a night of rest, most of the fatigue in the body was removed, and Zhen Jin, Cang Xu and others came to a cave.
This cave is not deep, and it is one of the crime scenes.
The people who once lived here have disappeared mysteriously.
The cave is clear at a glance. After someone disappeared here, no one dared to live here again.
There are also some simple daily necessities in the cave, emitting a faint musty smell and a slightly undetectable bloody smell.
The most attractive one is the boulder.
Under the boulder is a hole.
With a sign in her eyes, cyanobacteria understood and took the initiative to move the boulder.
The master and servant met in the forest, and then experienced dust storms, deserts, volcanoes, oases... Along the way, they had a considerable tacit understanding.
After the boulder was removed, the hole under it was immediately exposed.
The diameter of this hole is about 1.7 meters. The bottom of the hole is deep and dark. Even if you drop stones or torches, you can't probe to the bottom. Unless someone stoops in.
But the danger is great.
According to the speculation of quefan, the mysterious murderer of continuous murder came in and out of this underground cave.
In fact, this idea is very natural. After all, the suddenly appeared underground hole is too obvious.
But there is no way to solve this problem, and no one wants to venture into it. This underground cave is too narrow. If you encounter the mysterious murderer under the ground, you will die.
Zhen Jin and others looked at the hole carefully.
Cang Xu stretched out his thin old hand and touched the edge of the hole. In the cave wall, he felt a burst of greasy.
Zidi took out a bottle of medicine and sprinkled it around the hole.
Soon, the colorless potion reacted, emitting a pungent smell.
"The evidence is conclusive. It should be that kind of underground giant." Zidi must be authentic.
Needle gold nodded, and the others looked like this.
During the defensive war of the camp, people found this silver level Warcraft for the first time. It can drill into the ground, is huge in size, and has great vitality. It fought with mane Ge for several times, which once posed a great threat to the camp.
In the process of chasing the blue dog and the fox wolf, Zhige still smashed it to death.
Of course, its body will not be wasted. After being dragged back by others, it was immediately dissected by cangxu.
Cang Xu analyzed that there are at least three kinds of creatures of this underground giant, and the main body is sand silkworm.
Sand silkworms are also called sea earthworms. Under normal circumstances, they are about the same size as earthworms, and they are mostly on the beach.
People immediately deepened their understanding of underground giant insects. After learning about Zongge and Sandao, some people speculated: would it be this kind of Warcraft that attacked the survivors in the first camp?
Beach terrain is different from other landforms. When underground giant insects drill in and out, the holes will collapse. In addition, when the attack occurred, it was rainy and the beach was always wet, which made it impossible to identify traces.
If Warcraft attacks from underground and escapes from underground, then everything makes sense.
Cang Xu also analyzed that the underground giant insect will secrete greasy body fluids on its body surface, which is convenient for it to quickly enter and exit in the excavated underground passage.
Zidi collected this body fluid and specially prepared the medicine. Once the medicine touches this body fluid again, it will react and produce a strange smell.
Now, the speculation of Zongge and others has been confirmed.
After that, the people explored several other holes one after another, and Cang Xu's tone was dignified: "the underground giant insects grow very fast. You can understand by looking at the caliber of these underground holes."
"It is likely that this is the case. The larvae of underground insect killing, under the beach, are attracted by people's activities and start hunting."
"At that time, it was still relatively young, so it could only hunt, and could not drag people into underground holes or swallow them all."
"After that, people began to migrate and gave up the first camp. The underground giant insects detected this and tracked it underground, taking this small valley as a new hunting ground."
"Because there is an endless stream of food, it grows rapidly underground here. Its size has become huge and its strength has increased greatly. Now the underground giant has the ability to drag people into the hole, or directly eat the whole person!"
"Because of this, people are killed on the beach, but when they arrive at the valley, they appear to be mysteriously missing."
Cangxu's analysis was recognized by all present.
Zidi added, "we investigated several underground caves and found no blood stains near the entrance and exit of the cave. If people were dragged in by giant insects, they would leave all kinds of traces. Therefore, I prefer underground giant insects to swallow life directly."
"It attacks at night. It seems that it will start when people are asleep. With such tactics, it is easier and easier for it to swallow a person alive."
"Then how should we deal with it?" Zong Ge expressed concern.
Giant insects live underground, and the number is unknown at present.
Only when it hunts, it will drill out.
But the difficulty is that it can accurately perceive the life activities on the ground through touch.
Therefore, it has always been able to avoid the solid and find the single person to start. At first, on the beach, Zongge and others watched the night in person, but they didn't catch it, and they didn't even see its shadow. That's why.
The way of deliberately hiding, arranging traps, and then people hunting seems to have no effect on the underground giant insects.
"Don't worry, I have a way." Needle gold heart road.
He has ultrasonic detection, and he can easily know the activities of underground giant insects.
He also has strange fragrance. Controlling giant insects is not a problem.
He can even turn into a gun scorpion and so on, directly into the underground hole.
However, the needle gold on the surface is also a look of embarrassment.
"Zidi, I hope you can prepare a potion. It's best to make the taste that the underground giant likes and attract it."
"Since the underground giant likes to hunt single targets, please gather everyone together and have a rest as much as possible."
"As for me..."
"Don't disturb me. I need to be alone for a while."
"I will pray to my Lord!"
Hearing the last words of Zhen Jin, everyone's eyes lit up one after another.
Dark clouds are hanging over the beach, and there is no tomorrow. The air was sprinkled with fine rain, and waves of sea breeze blew, making the wooden class shiver.
"Pig kiss..." Bai Ya looked at the half hull lying on the beach, with a complex complexion.
His ideal of becoming a knight and becoming famous was refuted and opposed by his hunter father. But this instead inspired Bai Ya's rebellion. The young man stole money from his family and barely managed to get enough of the worst tickets to take the pig kiss.
He never expected that the boar kiss, which he had chosen carefully, would be shipwrecked.
"I'll go in first, check and make sure it's safe, and then you can go in and dismantle the ship." Sandao said, "if I don't come out, don't go in and save me. The best response is to go back and find Lord Zhen Jin or Lord Zongge."
Muban and Bai Ya nodded at the same time. They all know that their combat power is weak. If they fall, they will only die if they rush in to save people.
Muban, Bai Ya, Sandao and others were sent by Zhijin to dismantle the pig kiss.
The materials in the pig kiss have been looted, but its own wreckage still has great value.
Many planks can continue to be used, and so can masts, especially ship nails, which are very scarce at present, such as needle gold.
The figure of three knives soon appeared on the upturned forecastle.
He waved to the people under the beach and shouted, "come on, everything is safe here."
More than 20 people, including wooden boards and white buds, with hammers, saws and other tools, filed in.
The pig kiss has two decks, a forecastle and a poop. Now there is only half of the hull left here, and there is naturally no stern building or anything.
There is a captain's room in the forecastle. There is also a crew room in the first half, and the cargo is usually placed on the bottom floor.
According to the instructions of the boatman, everyone first dismantled the mast.
The front mast is rarely well preserved, the middle mast is broken, and the remaining half is still valuable.
Then, it is removed from top to bottom, from the outside to the inside.
For a time, the wreckage of the pig kiss was full of people shouting, sawing wood, and smashing things with a hammer.
They came here in the morning, rested at noon, ate the dry food and water they took with them, and continued to work in the afternoon.
No wild animals attacked, and there was no unexpected harvest.
As early as before, the survivors have searched the wreckage over and over again, and everything they can use and eat has been scraped away, which is very clean.
Until the evening, when Bai Ya took people to the captain's room on the front first floor, he made a little discovery.
Bai Ya found a small bottle of ink, a feather pen that would be destroyed in the future, and a stack of paper in the drawer in the corner.
Bai Ya just showed her joy.
Hoo!
A strong wind blew, and the whole hull shook violently.
"Get out, the pig kiss is about to collapse!" Bai Ya heard the roar of Muban.
The wreckage was unstable. After a whole day of disassembly, only the skeleton was left. It was natural for the wreckage to collapse.
Bai Ya and others immediately turned around and ran.
But as soon as she got to the door of the captain's room, Bai Ya bit her teeth, suddenly turned around and ran in!
The people around him didn't hold him, hesitated, and ran away first.
After more than a dozen breaths, the ship collapsed and set off a cloud of smoke.
"Where are the white buds?"
"He suddenly turned around and ran in!"
"He's still inside!"
After discovering this, the crowd rushed to the smoke.
Soon, they saw white buds.
Bai Ya was lying on the beach with a dusty face. Behind him, there were only half a meter, and a lot of broken hulls piled up like mountains.
Seeing this scene, Sandao, Muban and others were all afraid of Bai Ya.
But when the young man got up without any damage, he smiled with fearlessness and ignorance.
As the night grew darker, the people held torches and dragged a lot of dismantled supplies back to the small valley.
The atmosphere in the small valley was warm. When Sandao and Muban inquired, they learned that Zhen Jin and others had found the mysterious murderer and killed him. It is a huge insect, ferocious and terrible!
Everyone was happy. After a hard day, the fatigue in their bodies seemed to be swept away by the news.
That night, Zhen Jin and others held another gala dinner.
At the edge of the cave, Bai Ya sat on the wet ground with her back against the cave wall.
He carefully spread the paper on his thigh, dipped a little ink with a quill pen, and began to write in the light of the campfire outside.
My dear miss Nishiki:
Please forgive me for not writing to you for a long time.
The shipwreck happened so suddenly that it was more difficult, dangerous and wonderful than my previous life.
……
Bai Ya wrote a lot, among which many words could not be written, so he stayed for a while.
At the end of the letter, he wrote——
When we came back, we saw the corpses of underground giant insects on the high platform of the small valley open space.
This underground insect killer is still very young, not as big as the underground giant that attacked the camp before.
People cheered, beating and cursing around the body of this underground giant insect, venting their emotions.
I can imagine the shock and joy in their hearts, as well as their worship of Lord Zhen Jin!
Lord Zhijin did it.
This is completely beyond my expectation.
It's just a small matter for him. What do you say in Imperial Oriental? Easy, is that the word?
My life was saved by Lord Zhijin. He is a real knight. I take it for granted that the gods care for him. If you don't care for such a person, who else can you care for?
I believe everything will be better and better.
As long as we build a new ship, we can leave the island.
I can go to the wild continent to fight and gain glory.
Because I follow Lord Zhen Jin!
