The worm king said he only wanted to be a salted fish

·Sea Lake·

"You have to follow closely." John turned his head to look at Liu Yize and the others, very worried, "How about I tie you with a rope?"

When Huahua heard this, she immediately turned her head to look at Liu Yize - this idea seems to be good.

Liu Yize: "..."

"No, thank you."

Lu Haotian stretched out his hand to hold Huahua, and knocked on Huahua's head: "You are so courageous, you will always be as big as the tip of a needle."

Huahua didn't refute, but smiled sheepishly, and said, "But it's really scary here. The fog is so thick that it's like this during the day, and it's even more so at night that you can't see anything."

John and his team will spend three days in the sea of ​​decay, and they will try their best to get K01 within three days—if they can find it, of course.

"Let's not stay too far away, nothing will happen." Liu Yize turned his head and said to Huahua while walking, "These routes are often taken by them, so there should be no danger."

Huahua breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled: "That's right."

"Let's go."

The swamp that John and the others are going to pass through the Venice safe nest.But other teams were going to other places, so in the afternoon, the team dispersed.

"Now the real journey begins!" John clenched his fists and said loudly.The rest of his team turned a blind eye as usual, "Half an hour's rest, and then we'll start looking for a place to stay for the night. I hope the place we hid last time hasn't been destroyed."

Where they are now parked is a clearing with fewer dead trees.

The ground is covered with thick rotting leaves, and when you step on it, stinky black water will ooze; all the tree trunks are covered with moss, and it seems that they are either rotten or about to rot.Obviously, you can still see dark green leaves from the outside, but when you look inside, the leaves on the branches are not so much dark green as they are black.

"Wow! Leeches!" Huahua yelled suddenly, baring her teeth and looking at the backpack she put down with a broken face.There were five or six palm-sized leeches crawling on his backpack, and it seemed that he mistook the backpack for skin.

However, Liu Yize noticed that next to Huahua's backpack, there was a severed and withered vine. Although it looked very similar to the withered vines in the sea of ​​decay, Liu Yize knew it was not—no wonder Huahua's expression, although the vines were not very It hurts, but the touch is there.

Lu Haotian drew out his dagger, picked out all the leeches on Huahua's backpack, then took out a pack of ginger powder from the bag and sprinkled it around, and then said to Huahua: "It's okay, sit down, Lanhuahua. "

Huahua had lingering fears in her heart, she didn't care about Lu Haotian's address, and sat down obediently.

"Haha." John seemed to be amused by Huahua, he laughed and said, "Everything in the Rotten Sea is very greedy, don't be careless, kid!"

Hua Hua said expressionlessly, "I'm 23."

John was shocked: "Are you an adult?"

The rest of John's team also looked over in surprise.

Huahua: "..." I don't want to talk to you guys.

"Okay, let's eat something." Liu Yize raised his chin with a smile, and Bai Chenghao handed over some dry food.

Half an hour is not long, the group ate dry food, made some adjustments and set off on the road.

The last time John and the others found it was very close, and it was a place full of rubble - maybe it used to be a cave, but it's just a pile of rubble now, and there are some things like nests on the rubble .

"Oops, it's taken over." John said disappointedly.

The faces of the others were also not very good. One of them said: "Then we must hurry up. Go to the sea lake."

John nodded: "Yes, let's go."

It was three o'clock in the afternoon when they set off again, but it was dark after walking for less than half an hour.The flashlight uses a cold light, so you can't see very clearly, but it doesn't matter to Liu Yize.

Although it is so...

"Has the fog thickened?" Liu Yize whispered to himself.

His eyes allow him to see even in the dark, but if it is an entity such as fog instead of light, his vision will be impaired.But the fog in the rotten sea can completely cover his sight.

"Well, the fog will be very thick at night, and the rotten sea seems to breathe. At night, the fog will be sucked into the central area of ​​the rotten sea. In the morning, it will be exhaled to the entire rotten sea." John said, turning his head suddenly Come on, put the flashlight under your chin, casting a dark blue shadow upwards, "The sea of ​​decay is a living demon."

Liu Yize: "...Oh."

Seeing that no one was scared, John withdrew his flashlight in disappointment and said, "Besides, there are more nocturnal species in the rot sea, so night is their daytime. Everyone should be vigilant. If anyone hasn't tied up the cuffs of their trousers, they have already tied them up. Those Leeches and earthworms can get in wherever they see a crack."

"Earth, earthworm?" The corners of Huahua's mouth stiffened.Since being able to vine, he has become very hard on bug-like molluscs.

"The earthworms here can also suck blood." Bai Chenghao said, "There are also mosquitoes. Many animals here are the same size as before the end of the world, or they have specially evolved organs that can attack sneakily."

Huahua: "..." So scary QAQ

"Okay, Xiaobai, if you say a few more words, Lan Huahua will lose her courage." Lu Haotian patted Huahua's shoulder with a smile, and said, "If you are really afraid, just pull the strap of my backpack."

Huahua hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out her hand to grab the strap on Lu Haotian's backpack.The corners of Lu Haotian's mouth curled up involuntarily.

Several people walked for more than two hours, and finally arrived at the edge of Haihu Lake in the evening.

It was pitch black at this point.But there is sparkling light on the surface of Haihu Lake. It is not skylight, but some kind of luminescent microorganisms in the water.

Haihu Lake is the origin of the name "Huhai". This lake is very large and has a wide field of vision - but it is still indistinct in the dense fog; There are shrubs with small flowers; in contrast, the lakeside is a paradise.

"Huh!" Huahua let go of the backpack straps she was holding all the way, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"It's pretty safe here at night, and since most of the people coming here are large animals, you don't have to worry too much about those bugs." John and the others took off their backpacks, looked relaxed, and began to take out simple pots and utensils to prepare dinner.

Bai Chenghao also took out dry food, but they didn't bring cooking utensils, so they thought about exchanging dry food for some hot food later.Thinking of this, he had already sorted out an open space, put away his sleeping bag, and let Liu Yize sit down.

"The environment here is good, why is it like that outside?" Liu Yize asked a little strangely. In his memory, it was still a dense forest decades ago, and even the Gobi desertification area outside was still a grassland.But judging from the years since Feisha Bazaar was established, it seems that the situation in Rot Sea has been around for a long time.

"Well, I have heard several versions of this, let me tell you about the most reliable one." John became interested when he heard someone ask a question.

John sat down on the opposite side of Liu Yize, and set up a flashlight in the middle to create an atmosphere: "It is said that a long time ago, this was the area of ​​Luo Town, and Luo Town was about to become the fifth city at that time, and it was very prosperous .

But one day, a safe nest in this forest opens.That is the Venice Safe Nest you are looking for. "

Upon hearing this, Huahua and Lu Haotian who were busy at the side also came over.

Seeing the increase in the audience, John became more interested: "The supplies in the Venice safe nest are abundant, and Luozhen naturally sent a large number of people to hunt for the goods. But in the final stage of the hunt, an accident happened—that is, a sudden earthquake up.

To be precise, it wasn't an earthquake. In short, the entire Venice safe nest sank like a button was pressed, and at the same time, a lot of water spewed out from its bottom, and the water was poisonous.And then here it is. "

Although John is ready to do enough, the story is quite short.

But Lu Haotian immediately caught a key point, he asked: "You said, the entire Venice safe nest has sunk. Is it collapsed? Was it buried? How deep has it sunk? Can it still go down?"

"Uh, you want to go down?" John was stunned, "What are you going down for? Are you going to die?"

Lu Haotian said impatiently: "Just say if you can."

John raised his hand, pointed at the lake and said, "I don't know how deep it is, but if you are not afraid of death, you can go down and try it yourself."

Lu Haotian: "...You mean, the safe nest in Venice is just under the lake?"

John: "That's right. To be precise, the sea lake is the safe nest of Venice. Didn't I just say that after it sank, a lot of water came out. But don't worry, the water is not poisonous now."

Lu Haotian: "..."

This answer is really unexpected.Not only Lu Haotian, but Liu Yize and the others also changed their expressions.

Seeing their serious faces, John asked, "Do you have any important things to go down?"

Bai Chenghao raised his head and gave John a cold look: "It's okay."

John was taken aback by Bai Chenghao, laughed dryly and didn't ask any more questions.

"We won't go with you tomorrow. We will go back by ourselves later." Bai Chenghao said again.Their destination was the Venice Safe Nest, and it was a good deal not to go with John and the others afterwards.

"Yeah, I see." John didn't say much, but smiled, "I'm going to make some hot soup."

Although John was gone, Liu Yize and the others couldn't discuss anything because they were not far away.However, Lu Haotian's complexion was still not very good.

"Okay, it's a big deal, go back and buy diving equipment later. Anyway, we have already memorized the route." Liu Yize said, "Don't put on this look, it's really uncomfortable."

Lu Haotian gave Liu Yize a blank look, and said, "If you hadn't whispered trash snacks into my ear every day, how could I have such a lot of pressure?"

Liu Yize smiled, and said softly, "Even if I don't tell you, you will too."

Lu Haotian: "After I..., I must fight with you."

Liu Yize shrugged, stepped on Bai Chenghao's lap, and said, "Ah Bai, massage my waist."

Bai Chenghao naturally accepted it happily: "Okay, teacher."
