Liu Qianwen explained: "The skinworm can be said to be a specialty sea insect found in the moving sand in the sea. This poisonous insect can float on the water or burrow into the sand. It is quite scary to people."
Liu Qianwen seemed to have thought of the horror of this kind of insect, and her pretty face turned pale, making Nangong Haotian gradually become serious. It seemed that this peeling insect was really not a good thing.
"This kind of bug generally has a mother bug, just like a beehive, with a queen, and that mother bug is responsible for breeding offspring among the skinned bugs." Aunt Shan added, "In fact, the female bug is the weakest.
, General peeling insects have certain attack power, but the mother worm is protected by countless peeling insects, and it is difficult to find it!"
"But although this kind of bug is very scary, the mother bug essence produced by their mother bug is extremely precious. It has the purest energy and is the treasure that everyone in the martial arts world longs for!"
Aunt Shan smiled and continued: "Look at me, I've gone off topic. That kind of thing is the most closely guarded thing by the peeling insects. How can ordinary people get it?"
Nangong Haotian didn't say anything. He was very curious about this skin-peeling insect. In order to find more information, he asked curiously: "Are you saying they only eat human skin?"
"How can there be so many human skins for them to eat?" Wei Xiaoying smiled and said seriously: "They specialize in eating fish, shrimps, turtles, crabs and other marine animals that are hidden in the sand. Once they encounter people, they will eat them.
Human…”
Nangong Haotian said in surprise, without saying anything, but there was a little fire in his eyes. Not long ago, he had already practiced the Waste Transformation Art to the late third level, and he was worried that he would not have any natural materials or earthly treasures for him.
As an advanced treasure, I wonder if there will be an opportunity to obtain the essence of the insect mother this time?
Aunt Shan said: "However, once they encounter a human, their food is quite terrifying. In just a few hours, they will eat the human until only the bones are left."
"Didn't you say it was a skin-peeling insect?" Nangong Haotian looked surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Why do you even eat human flesh?"
Aunt Shan said sternly: "We call them skin peeling insects because they have six legs and one mouth. As soon as they touch your skin, the skin will disappear immediately."
Nangong Haotian's expression suddenly became a little weird. This kind of thing seemed a little evil, but he couldn't help but be curious, so he still asked: "Where's the skin?"
Liu Qianwen said solemnly: "According to the speculations of the older generation, there must be some blood-sucking things, thorns, or highly toxic liquids on the mouth and feet of this skin-peeling insect. Once it touches human skin, it will
The human skin immediately becomes sticky and bloody, making it easier for them to feed."
Aunt Shan said nervously: "Young master, if you hear the stories from those who have seen the skinned insects with their own eyes, they are so terrible that they can really scare people to the point of fainting."
Nangong Haotian nodded, his expression did not change much, and said, "Tell me about it."
Aunt Shan seemed to be really frightened, and continued after a long time: "Skinworms live in groups, and when they don't appear, there are tens of millions of them. They seem to know where there are strangers, and they swarm up, and in an instant they are gone.
The skin is covered all over your body. Before you kill a few with your hands, the skin on your body has been eaten up by tens of millions of skin worms."
Nangong Haotian said disapprovingly: "Since the peeling insects are so scary, if we crawl and tie ourselves to the bamboo raft when we go there, wouldn't we just let those peeling insects feast?"
"We were tied to the big bamboo raft to prevent the sudden influx of sand from sinking us into the living sand, because no one with high martial arts skills can resist it!" Liu Qianwen said sternly: "But peeling the skin off
But we have ways to prevent it."
Nangong Haotian perked up after hearing this, and couldn't help but said excitedly: "It seems that we humans are truly worthy of being called the spirits of all things, and we can always think of ways to deal with them."
Liu Qianwen said solemnly: "However, this method is not necessarily completely effective. It depends on the person operating the bamboo raft to try to avoid them."
Nangong Haotian frowned slightly. Hearing what they said was so suspenseful, but he could still avoid them, didn't he just shoot himself in the foot? So he asked, "Why, can I still avoid them?"
Liu Qianwen said: "The sand in the sea is erratic and unpredictable, but their appearance is like sand mountains in the sea, and the currents form between them..."
"What does this have to do with the peeling worm?" Nangong Haotian asked puzzledly.
Wei Xiaoying said sternly: "It's really a big deal, because although the peeling bug is very vicious, it's as timid as a mouse."
"Oh?" Nangong Haotian perked up after hearing this, and asked with interest, "Is there such a thing?"
Wei Xiaoying pursed her lips and smiled and said: "If they are bolder, then it will be okay."
Nangong Haotian asked curiously: "What kind of cowards are they?"
Aunt Shan said: "The law of nature is: every thing is born, it must have its own limitations. The skinworms are afraid of everything, even a gust of wind or a gust of raindrops. They will be frightened. Silt sand is their home, and they will never dare to leave the swimming pool."
The sand is too far."
Nangong Haotian still didn't understand and asked: "You mean..."
Aunt Shan said sternly: "I mean, thousands of them came out of the silt at once, and when a gust of wind blew, they were frightened and hurriedly got into the silt, coming in and out, busy non-stop.
, but once they smell the smell of blood, they won’t be afraid even if the sky falls.”
Liu Qianwen said solemnly: "Therefore, when people pass by the Langsha Sea, they must not kill chickens and cut meat on the boat to avoid spreading blood and causing trouble."
It's almost the same as the so-called piranha, Nangong Haotian thought to himself, but seeing the dignified looks on the three people's faces, he felt that it shouldn't be that simple, so he said seriously: "Then let's go to Langsha..."
Liu Qianwen said: "Although we didn't bring any bloody meat with us when we went to Langsha. But because we were traveling in the gaps between the silt sand, we had to wear leather covers all over, leaving only our mouth, nose and eyes."
Nangong Haotian asked in confusion: "Don't our mouths and noses emit the smell of foreign people and strangers?"
"Yes." Aunt Shan said seriously: "So each of us must hang a few tobacco leaves in front of our hoods. In this way, the spicy smell of the tobacco leaves will drown out the smell on our bodies."
After hearing this, Nangong Haotian nodded as if he had some understanding, and said, "So, the place with the most peeling insects is the place where the sand is closest to the sea surface."
Aunt Shan smiled and said: "Young master, you have finally figured it out. The so-called experienced rafters are those who are as timid as mice and never dare to leave the silt sand according to the habit of floating and sinking skinned insects, along the current.
Go forward and reach a small island in the center of Langsha..."
"Uh!" Nangong Haotian was a little speechless. Why was he so stupid? He was just curious. He touched the tip of his nose helplessly and asked, "You mean there is another small island..."
Aunt Shan said: "According to what local fishermen have passed down from generation to generation, the small island in the center of Langsha was very big two or three hundred years ago, and there were many small islands connected to the coast."
Nangong Haotian asked with concern: "What about now?"
"Now, after years of gradual land loss, only a small three-pointed island less than two miles away is left." Aunt Shan said.
Liu Qianwen couldn't help but ask: "Why is it called a three-pointed island?"
Aunt Shan said: "Because the water level is extremely high during spring tides, the island is also flooded by the tide. Only the three highest points are exposed on the sea surface, so three small pointed islands are formed."
Wei Xiaoying said speculatively: "Looking at it, in a few decades or a hundred years, these three sharp islands will probably disappear."
Aunt Shan smiled and said: "That will happen a hundred years later. We don't need to worry about future generations. It is the problem at hand. How to deal with it?"
"Isn't everything solved now?" Nangong Haotian was stunned and said: "We have a method of communication, and we have a countermeasure for entering Langsha..."
Aunt Shan said solemnly: "Slave, what are you going to do after arriving on the island?"
After saying this, Nangong Haotian, Liu Qianwen and Wei Xiaoying were all stunned. Nangong Haotian himself was not worried. He was very confident in his own kung fu. Even if he met Shangguan Mi, a conservative estimate, the outcome would be 5 to 5.
The number of five.
But Liu Qianwen and others are different. If they go too, I'm afraid they will have to take care of them. If something happens, I'm afraid they will feel uneasy for the rest of their lives.
"What?" Wei Xiaoying noticed the change in Nangong Haotian's face and asked anxiously: "Don't you know the situation on the island?"
Aunt Shan said seriously: "Don't talk about my old lady, even an old lady who has been there three or four times doesn't know what the situation is like on the island."
Liu Qianwen asked in confusion: "Then how did you know that Shangguan Mi might have fled to Langsha?"
"Shangguan Mi is the chief helmsman of the northwest, and he is familiar with the situation of secret orders. He is even more aware of the dangers of Langsha." Aunt Shan said sternly: "Now, if you want to escape the pursuit of the young master, only Langsha is the safest. Not only
It is very dangerous to pass through the sea, and few outsiders know about the situation on the island."
"Yes, Shangguan Mie must have gone to Langsha. Before him, this was an absolutely confidential place." Liu Qianwen also echoed: "Furthermore, he also thinks that even if there are very few people in the Tianyao Demon Sect,
Anyone who knows this would never think that Aunt Shan would leak this absolutely confidential and safe place to Haotian..."
Mentioning the cheating Shangguan Mi, Nangong Haotian's eyes flashed coldly, his handsome face was sinister, and he smiled coldly and said: "Don't say that Shangguan Mi fled to Langsha in the East China Sea, but that he fled to Daniha, which is full of poisonous diseases. I
We must capture him alive and avenge his parents."
Although both Liu Qianwen and Wei Xiaoying were full of confidence, Aunt Shan, who knew the details, knew that not only would they have a narrow escape from death, but there was no guarantee of success in going to Langsha this time.
However, there is one thing she is extremely sure of, that is, the old thief Shangguan Mie must be hiding on Sanjian Island in the Langsha waters of the East China Sea. Aunt Shan is full of joy and worry now. If Nangong Haotian goes to Sanjian Island
If something happened, I'm afraid the young lady would have to eat her alive.
