Everyone saw that although there were many thick and low trees, they grew sparsely in the swamp. They stood alone one by one and did not form a forest.
Some larger trees have trunks as thick as a giant sweet potato, with several crowns on them.
In each tree crown, there are one or two round "moons".
"I recognize these trees!" Bai Zhi looked at them for a long time and then said, "These are baobab trees. I have seen this kind of tree when I was traveling!"
"Well...it does look a bit like..."
When Jiang Zhonglou traveled with his master in the mountains of southwest China, he also saw baobab trees, which were indeed similar to the trees in this cave.
"No, they should be Ruomu." Su Ye frowned.
"Ruomu?"
"Yes, according to the "Book of Mountains and Seas: Hai Nei Jing", outside the West Sea, between the black water and the green forest, there is a tree named Ruomu, Ruo Shui Chu Yan..."
Su Ye said: "In ancient mythology, it is also said that the sun rises on the Fusang tree and the moon sets on Ruomu, which means that the sun rises from the Fusang tree in the east every day and the moon sets on Ruomu in the west every day...
This is the west of the Underground Ink City, and there are moon-like things on these trees, so I guess...these trees should be Ruomu!"
"oh..."
Everyone nodded.
"Sister Su, the Ruoshui you are talking about is the Ruoshui that has three thousand Ruoshui and I only take one scoop of Ruoshui?" Bai Zhi asked.
"Uh...you can actually speak an ancient proverb?" Jiang Zhonglou glanced at Bai Zhi.
"I learned it from watching romantic TV series, isn't it good?" Bai Zhi rolled her eyes at Jiang Zhonglou.
"The Ruo of Ruo Mu Ruo Shui is Ruo with the prefix "Cao". The Ruo of Ruo Shui Sanqian is the weak of weak and weak. They are not the same thing..."
Su Ye said: "That weak water, there are many records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", saying that there is water in the north of Kunlun, but its power cannot beat mustard, so it is called weak water...
As for this Ruoshui, "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" records very little, except that Huangdi's wife Leizu gave birth to a second son, Changyi, in Ruoshui..."
"Oh... Ruomu has seen it, but what about Ruoshui?" Bai Zhi looked around.
"The water in this swamp should be Ruoshui..."
Su Ye looked at the swamp in the distance and said: "In the Bagua, the west is Dui and Ze. This is indeed a swamp..."
"Let's go, let's go to the front and see if there's anything interesting!"
Sanya took the lead and led everyone to explore forward.
There was a muddy swamp under our feet. Fortunately, Sanya found a more solid place, otherwise, everyone might have fallen into the mud.
After walking for a while, everyone came to a large Ruo tree.
The trunk of this Ruomu tree is as bloated as a wall, with five crowns on it.
In every tree crown, there is a moon.
"What on earth is that moon?" Bai Zhi looked up curiously.
"I really want to climb up and have a look!" Sanya couldn't help but be curious.
Mo Lian took out a small telescope from somewhere and pointed it at her eyes.
"Sister, what's up there?" Sanya came over anxiously.
"It's the white silver spirit child..."
Mo Lian handed the binoculars to Sanya.
"Wow! The moon above is really made of white silver spirits!" Sanya looked at the telescope and shouted excitedly.
"this..."
Everyone took turns looking through the telescope and saw the moon on the top of the tree crown. It turned out to be a big ball made up of countless silver-white silver spirits.
These silver spirits all emit cold white light, so the big ball they form looks like a moon...
"These are the real Silver Spirits. They are indeed silver-white!" Su Ye sighed.
"Then those golden ones outside...aren't they Yin Lingzi? Are they Golden Lingzi?" Bai Zhi asked curiously.
"Of course the ones outside are also Yin Lingzi. I think they should be the larvae of Yin Lingzi!"
Mo Lian said: "The pupae of this kind of silver spirit are green, the larvae are golden, and the adults are silver-white, so it is called silver spirit rather than gold spirit!"
"Oh my god, those ferocious bugs just now are their larvae! Then you don't know how powerful these adult bugs are!"
Bai Zhi exclaimed in surprise: "If we offend them... wouldn't they chew us into white skeletons in minutes?"
"As long as you know how powerful you are, walk carefully and don't act carelessly." Mo Lian glanced at Bai Zhi.
"I..."
Bai Zhi huddled behind Jiang Zhonglou and walked forward slowly.
"Sister, which way should we go?"
Sanya looked at the boundless swamp Ruo Mu and didn't know which way to go.
"Let's go west. This is due west of the Underground Black City. Let's see what's at the end of the west."
"Yes, we should go west, but which way is the west?" Su Ye also looked around blankly, with no direction at all.
"I have a compass on my phone. Let me see where the west is!"
Bai Zhi volunteered and quickly took out her mobile phone and opened the Compass app.
But I saw that the pointer was spinning around like crazy and couldn't stop at all.
"The magnetic field here is chaotic, and the compass is useless..." Mo Lian said.
"Then what should we do? How do we know that the west is over there?" Bai Zhi was confused.
"It's okay, Sanya knows that the west is over there." Mo Lian said calmly.
"What? Sanya knows? Why?" Bai Zhi asked curiously.
"You're stupid! Have you forgotten how I found the maze in the game?"
Sanya said proudly: "I always remembered the direction when I came in!"
"Let me go...Aren't you too awesome? After walking so far...you still remember the direction?" Bai Zhi was surprised.
"Of course, there's nothing difficult about it, you just didn't pay attention to remember it!"
Sanya said with a smile and led everyone in the same direction.
The vast swamp is endless, and the "moon" composed of silver spirits on countless Ruo trees illuminates the surrounding area coolly and brightly...
I don’t know how long they walked before Sanya raised her hand and pointed a finger and shouted: “Look! There’s a big Ruomu over there!”
Everyone looked up and were surprised to find that there was indeed a giant Ruomu in the distance, which was taller than a building with dozens of floors!
Its trunk is extremely bloated, like a continuous city wall, with countless tree crowns on it, and countless "moons" in the tree crown...
"I'll go...this Ruomu is so big!" Bai Zhi sighed.
"There must be something fun there, let's go check it out!"
Sanya quickened her pace excitedly.
Everyone quickly followed.
After walking for a while, everyone arrived under the huge Ruo tree.
I saw that Ruomu was bigger than what I saw from a distance, like a huge city tower!
A lot of football-sized fruits fell under the tree, which are similar to the fruits of the baobab tree.
"Wow! There is some fruit to eat!"
Sanya picked up a fruit and was about to eat it.
"Don't eat it!"
Jiang Zhonglou snatched the Ruomu Fruit from Sanya's hand.
