LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 94
Liu Ji had never studied any plants before, but based on his cooking experience, the structure of this thing does look like some kind of fungus.
Maybe.
In the end, whether this strange thing can fit into the template of plants and animals in his cognition is still a question mark.
Liu Ji broke off a few pieces and stuffed them into his hands, just as a sample, and he could show them to Ya Yin later.
Oh, yes, the film near the cave can also be sampled...
Just as Liu Ji was thinking about this, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something at the bottom of this pile of shriveled plants.
"Oh, by the way, there is a person buried under here..." Liu Ji suddenly remembered this.
No, to be precise, it should be a corpse...
Hmm...
Should I dig it out?
Otherwise, let's dig it out and take a look. The person is dead, at least buried in the soil, and return to nature. Growing in this thing, God knows if this thing will come back to life.
Thinking of this, Liu Ji started to dig up the remaining debris.
Soon, he cleaned up all the fragile coke, and the figure buried under the strange plant finally appeared.
Looking at the figure, Liu Ji immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.
Then, he didn't know whether it was still a human body.
Just like a failed glass product, bubbles bulged everywhere on the body.
Some bubbles were small, like swollen mosquito bites.
Some bubbles were large, like swollen blisters.
Some bubbles had already broken, leaving arc-shaped pits.
These large and small bubbles and pits were all over the surface of the body, making its appearance full of holes, fragmented, difficult to see the face, and even difficult to find a palm-sized intact skin.
As for why this body can still maintain this appearance, and even various types of bubbles can be left all over the body...
That's because the whole body has no flesh and blood.
From head to toe, from bubbles to hair, everything, everything, was shining with golden light.
Like a huge human-shaped gold...

Yain's business was over.
Except for the tents and the two dragon carts that were left behind to avoid excessive suspicion, all the remaining goods and several dragon carts had been sold.
For the last dragon cart, Yain directly took a one-meter square cargo box and threw it there.
These villagers fought hard, but in the end they only managed to get through about one-tenth of the depth.
But Yain still sold it to them.
Her original purpose was to see how much money these guys had.
The final result seemed quite exaggerated.
According to preliminary estimates, the total value could be tens of thousands of gold kaga.
For such a small mountain village, this can be said to be a rather exaggerated fortune.
It was so exaggerated that the whole village could still have more than half left if they went to Mir City to buy a house and settle down.
But even if they handed over such an exaggerated wealth, they didn't seem to care. As soon as Yayin closed the business, they dispersed one after another. Only those who jointly bought dragon cars gathered together, seemingly discussing how to distribute their dragon cars.
Yayin was in the tent at the moment, looking at the box of gold in front of her, frowning.
Now that the matter has been made clear, everyone knows that there must be something wrong with this pile of gold.
The question now is, what exactly is this problem.
Yayin has been tossing in the tent for a long time, and no matter what method is used to test, she can't find any problems from these gold grains.
Liu Ji didn't come back either...
Although it's useless for him to come back, it's been so long, I'm still a little worried...
"Or, let's melt this gold into a lump and stuff it into the magic space first?" Yayin thought.
Hmm...
No, forget it. It takes too much magic power to melt such a large lump of gold. The magic array has not been set up yet, so it's important to set up the magic array first.
After making up her mind, Yain moved the gold aside and turned her attention to the magic array in the center of the big tent again.

Outside the tent.
The villagers who had been scattered gathered again.
They gathered at a distance, looking at the tent and whispering.
"Hey, why don't they plan to leave yet..."
"I don't know, didn't the merchants in the past leave soon?"
"Why, what should I do, they won't leave?"
"No way, they have sold all their goods, why are they still here..."
The villagers talked to each other, looking a little anxious.
At the same time, outside the city, a group of foreigners in armor gathered in the farmland on both sides.
They stared at the direction of the city gate, and their expressions seemed to be more anxious than the villagers in the city.
"What's going on? Why haven't the merchants left yet?"
"I don't know. They should have sold everything they needed to sell this morning!"
"Will they find us? Are they hiding inside and not planning to come out?"
"I don't know, but didn't we suspect this before? This is not an ordinary caravan at all!"
"Yes, it's the young master of the Chamber of Commerce who's here to experience life."
"But, if we continue to delay..."
The foreigners were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
In the center of their line, a short, thin man was sitting cross-legged on the ground with a frown on his face.
"Boss, what should we do?" the one-eyed man beside him asked in a low voice, "It's been half a day, if we delay any longer, I'm afraid..."
"Don't worry," the thin man shook his head, "these people's festivals haven't started yet, why rush?"
"Well, that's only in the next two days," the one-eyed man said, "what if they really find us and hide and refuse to come out?"
"Oh, that's easy," the thin man smiled, "then these natives will naturally meet us and rob them. Anyway, this batch of gold will still be ours."

Russling...
Liu Ji covered the last handful of yellow soil.
Looking at the small grave in front of him, Liu Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
Although this unfortunate poor man no longer looked like a human being, Liu Ji still buried him out of humanitarianism.
Well, it was probably him. His body was too tragic to even tell whether he was a man or a woman.
"However, the underground graves are also novel. Rest in peace," Liu Ji mourned for two seconds, then turned around and looked around.
Hmm...
After tossing for so long, he forgot which hole he came in from.
At this moment, the mucous membrane outside also shriveled, revealing the caves around.
Liu Ji counted and found that there were a total of more than ten tunnels distributed on the walls of this empty cave.
Well, there are as many forks as always.
But it doesn't matter.
Liu Ji didn't have a route along the way, so there were as many forks as there were. Anyway, all roads lead to Rome, so Liu Ji just had to drill underground.
Moreover, when he got here, these tunnels finally became spacious, and even if he walked in as the incarnation of sand, he wouldn't feel too crowded.
After randomly choosing a cave that he liked and extended deeper, Liu Ji walked in.
After just two steps, Liu Ji noticed something was wrong.
He always felt that this passage seemed a little bright...
After thinking about it, Liu Ji temporarily dispelled the sunlight spell.
After his vision adapted to the environment, Liu Ji confirmed that it was indeed brighter here than before.
In the previous passage, if the sunlight spell was not used for lighting, it would be pitch dark, but on this road, Liu Ji could even see the road a few meters ahead.
This...Liu Ji didn't know whether to say it was good news or bad news.
On the one hand, this might mean that he was about to get close to the center of these anomalies, but on the other hand...
This bright light, I'm afraid that the light explosive bugs are inevitable.
With a nervous mood, Liu Ji continued to move forward.
Gradually, he found that the road seemed to be getting wider and wider, and the intertwined forks began to increase, making the whole space more and more transparent.
Gradually, these intertwined roads began to connect into a larger whole, and the walls that once separated the roads gradually became more like huge pillars standing in this whole space.
And the further you go in, the brighter and brighter this space becomes.
Even in this dim tunnel, looking far away, the end of the distant road was as bright as pure white.
Liu Ji kept moving towards the light.
Finally, after stepping out of an archway composed of stone pillars, a huge underground cavity with a radius of several thousand meters appeared in front of Liu Ji.
Countless stone pillars connected the ceiling and the ground, and giant eggs composed of layers of thin films were scattered between the stone pillars.
Countless light explosive insects flew in the film giant eggs, making those giant eggs look as dazzling as sequined crystal balls under strong light.
However, under this dazzling light, there were countless bright red "broccoli".
Liu Ji's perception clearly told him that under each "broccoli", there was a human corpse buried...
141. Three-in-one I don't believe you, you old man are very bad
Plop...
Plop...
The giant eggs were jumping slowly. Although the speed of each one was not fast, there were too many of them, and the jumping sound was still one after another.
At the edge of the cave, many elves were attached to the rock wall, as if expanding the cave.
And near the edge, there were also some eggs that were obviously smaller than other membrane eggs.
In these eggs, you can see a bunch of elves surrounding the broccoli that has not grown up yet, as if they are doing something like nurturing.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Liu Ji was a little confused.
He didn't know whether this was a nest of something or a unique underground ecosystem.
If it was an ecosystem, why was one of the links of this ecosystem those bodies buried underground?
If this was a nest, whose nest was it? These light explosive bugs? Or is it the bloody broccoli on the ground?
Or is it the nest where the two coexist?
