I can't play this game

Just as Ji Han was about to stand up and fight again, the ground under his feet suddenly collapsed.

It turned out to be the irregular deep hole in the middle of the circular tomb where mycelium drilled out. It may have collapsed under the trampling of Ji Han due to the passage of time.

In desperation, Ji Han hastily leaned forward, but luckily the whole body did not collapse, only the lower body of Ji Han fell into the mycelium hole that "leads to the realm of the gods", and the upper body lay outside.

Seeing this, the three hurried to rescue him, and Song Qian rushed over to grab Ji Han.

Eggplant didn't dare to go directly, for fear of trampling the ground, but stretched out his hand to help Song Qian pull Jihan up.

And Chen Ke lay on the ground directly, holding on to Ji Han's clothes.

But the leader of the Huns also ran out of the tunnel and attacked the four of them again.

Eggplant gritted his teeth and cursed:

"This grandson's mother doesn't talk about martial arts, taking advantage of others' danger."

But the leader of the Xiongnu didn't care about this, and punched the eggplant again.

Eggplant had no choice but to withdraw his hands to prevent it, and slid back a few meters, showing the great strength.

With the help of Chen Ke and Song Qian, Ji Han also crawled out.

The leader of the Huns charged again, but this time before the two sides fought, the leader of the Huns, who was not serious under his feet, directly trampled the nearby ground again.

Except for Eggplant, who had just been punched away, and Chen Ke, who was standing in the corner after La Jihan came up.

The remaining three, Ji Han, Song Qian and the leader of the Xiongnu, all fell towards the pit.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, the eggplant threw its flying claws at the two of them before it collapsed and fell.

Ji Han and Song Qian grabbed the flying claws and the chain together, and hit the wall to prevent them from falling.

Fearing that one would be difficult to support, Chen Ke by the wall also threw out his flying claws for Ji Han to grab, and leaned towards the eggplant.

The leader of the Xiongnu was not so lucky, and his body twisted and fell towards the crack in the black stone below.

Ji Han hugged Song Qian to stabilize his figure before he began to observe the situation below.

It turns out that under the cave is the absolutely black rock outside. There is a crack several meters wide on the rock, and the other side of the crack may be connected to the big crack in the canyon outside.

Several thick hyphae glowing white protruded from the cracks.

Ji Han felt that mycelium could no longer be used to describe them, because the thick and glowing mycelium stretched down through the cracks, with no end in sight.

It's like the sacred tree reaching the sky in myths and legends.

Chapter 125 Seal the smoke and seal the smoke, someone set up a spy

No wonder the inhabitants of those ancient tribes felt that this was the way to the realm of the gods.

Let alone at that time, seeing this tree of luminous mycelium that stretches endlessly to the ground will make people amazed.

It seems that the Russian movie about the discovery of a deadly virus in the deep underground that I communicated with Eggplant is really similar to this one.

How deep underground did this glowing mycelium grow up from?

At this time Song Qian pushed Ji Han with her elbow and said:

"Brother Han, are you looking there?"

Ji Han lowered his head and looked in the direction of the opening of the crack. He didn't notice anything at first?

There are also glowing hyphae over there, but they are much smaller.

But after a closer look, it was discovered that the place where the white mycelium was coiled was the remains of many human beings. It seemed that many corpses had been thrown here.

It was inevitable that another collapse would occur, and the two pulled the chains and climbed upwards.

In the process of climbing upwards, Ji Han discovered that the tiny hyphae on the wall seemed to move by themselves after being touched.

Like a mimosa, it curls up with the touch.

Out of curiosity, Ji Han touched it again with his glove, and found several bugs crawling out from under the white hyphae.

Small white hyphae drilled out of those bugs' bodies, wrapping themselves inside.

The little worm writhed and burrowed out from the place where Ji Han had touched, changed to another place, and burrowed into the soil again with mycelium.

Could this be the soul-inducing worm mentioned on the wall?

Ji Han tapped a few more places, and as before, bugs parasitized by mycelium came out. These bugs were of different sizes and types.

For safety's sake, Ji Han trapped one with his glove, and then climbed up with the chain.

After pulling Ji Han up, the four retreated to the side of the collapsed cave.

Chen Ke looked deep into the crack and said:

"How deep is this place?"

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"It is estimated that only the residents of the ancient village who jumped down knew about it, but I also found this below. I suspect that this is the soul-inducing insect they said."

Said Ji Han threw the bug in the glove on the ground.

I saw a small worm covered in white hyphae, like a ginseng fruit. As soon as it landed, it burrowed into the soil, and then slowly grew new white mycelium from the small hole he drilled in.

Eggplant said in surprise:

"This thing is more ruthless than Cordyceps sinensis, can you switch freely between bugs and plants?"

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"It should be the symbiosis between insects and this fungus. The insects help the fungi to find a better place to grow. The fungi ensure that the bodies of the insects will not rot. The corpses of those ancient people may be the same, under the control of fungi. Activity."

Song Qian asked:

"The leader of the Huns, didn't he bring his own soldiers down there to find the key to turning defeat into victory? Why did he stay down there by himself?"

Ji Han guessed:

"I guess it was finally discovered that those soldiers who were parasitized by fungi did not listen to their own commands at all, and even hacked with their own soldiers. In desperation, they committed suicide here, but because they were too close to the mycelium hole, they could not The corpse was parasitized by fungi, treated and preserved. Because of our disturbance just now, it was controlled by the mycelium in the body and attacked us."

Eggplant scolded:

"Grass, what's next, do you want to blow up the mycelium tree under the ground?"

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"I still don't want it. I was as careful as possible just now, but I still disturbed the hyphae in the Hun leader's body. If this is a big move, it will lead to other things that are parasitized by the mycelium. It will be difficult to deal with."

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"Besides, I don't know how many of these mycelium-parasitic worms crawled out to infect us. It's also possible. I also agree not to act rashly."

Song Qing continued:

"Since there is no sacred pillar here, I suggest that everyone go up quickly, it is too dangerous down here."

The four pushed aside the hyphae on the road, walked out of the catacombs, and faced this huge bottomless crack.

Everyone continued to walk up the stairs along the wall.

Eggplant complained:

"Fuck, what a fucking pit, I knew I wouldn't need a sniper, so I put the gun on it. It's really too much to run up and down seven or eight floors with a big sniper on my back."

Chen Ke said with a smile:

"Brother Eggplant can't do it. I see that blond sniper in the International Alien Alliance, but he has a strong body. Brother Eggplant looks at his physical strength. You can't beat him."

When the eggplant heard this, he said angrily:

"Just kidding, sniping is about physical strength? It's about experience and accuracy, okay? As for that little golden retriever, I can let him take ten bullets."

Speaking of the Ethan team of the International Alien Alliance, Song Qian also asked:

"By the way, those guys haven't made any movement, so they won't really go back."

Ji Han continued:

"I hope they really went back and don't delay us here."

The most important thing is that it still occupies my quest quota and quest rewards. I feel that the quests are getting cheaper now, which is probably caused by their participation.

The four of them walked towards the square above while talking.

At the same time, the five members of Ethan's team finally passed through the absolutely black mountain tunnel, and arrived outside the gate of the underground city, in front of the sandy square.

The black youth Samuel complained when he came out:

"This weird Montenegro is full of ominousness and curses!"

Will, the blond sniper, joked with a sniper rifle on his back:

"Wow! Samuel, it turns out that you are next to me, because it is too dark, and you, a black man, cannot be seen in the tunnel."

Captain Ethan turned around and stopped:

"Stop making trouble, we may be left far behind, and we can't be taken advantage of by those guys, so hurry up."

Ellie, the black girl in Ethan's team, shouted:

"Look there, it might be left behind by them."

In the sand she was pointing at, on both sides of the stone road, there were two big balls shining red, but they seemed to have been crushed and deformed.

Little K said curiously:

"What is that? A mark they left us?"

Ethan shook his head and said:

"They probably don't have such kind intentions, Ellie, what is it to check?"

Allie promised and ran towards the red ball in the sand on the left.

But just as she passed by, Ethan found that the sand was suddenly stirred up under the red ball on the other side.

So he hurriedly shouted to Ellie:

"No! Ellie, come back!"

But it was too late, a huge figure suddenly jumped up from the sand behind Ellie, and opened its mouth full of sharp teeth towards her.

The four of Ethan hurriedly picked up their weapons and rushed over.

At this time, Ji Han and the others finally came up from the earthen steps under the tomb and returned to the square inside the city gate.

After the four of them prepared to rest here for a while, they explored the depths of the crack to find the residence of the tribal chief.

At this moment, there was a "bang" gunshot outside the city gate.

Chapter 126 Sand Bug King Killing Gu

Everyone was startled when they heard gunshots.

Eggplant was keenly aware that it was the sound of a sniper rifle, and was about to seal the smoke against the sniper.

But the four of them immediately realized something was wrong, because apart from the sniper rifle, there were other noisy gunshots and shouts, all coming from outside the city gate.

Looking at the flashing gunfire outside through the broken city gate, Song Qian judged:

"It must be the five of Ethan and the others from the International Alien Alliance."

Eggplant scratched his head and said:

"Who is this fighting with? It sounds quite intense. It can't be that people from the Consciousness-only Society are also here?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone felt a slight vibration under their feet.

Ji Han remembered what they had encountered in the sand before and said:

"It must have been attacked by a monster in the sand. With such a big shock, it must not be the fish, but the huge black shadow that knocked the fish away."

Chen Ke asked:

"Then what should I do? Do you want to help?"

Eggplant shook his head and said:

"I don't think there is any need to go. Aren't those grandchildren awesome? Let them handle it themselves."
