"Squeak, squeak!" At this moment, all the horned thunderhoppers in front of them screamed, which was to greet Ruotao, and the magic mandrill quickly followed. It seemed that they were not affected by the stench around them at all.
The impact seems to have long been accustomed to it.
"Let's go!" Now that Mu Xuan's spiritual energy has purified the surrounding air and shrouded the area around her, Ruotao is no longer afraid of the stench, and immediately follows closely with the magic mandrill.
The Horned Thunderhoppers led Ruotao and the others in a hurry, passing through a narrow area several feet long, and everyone came to another place.
Here, there were shining animal bones all over the place, and the demon mandrill said: "Sister, it seems like this is the intestines of an ancient beast. The stench just now is probably due to the food residue it left in the intestines.
Down."
"Well, that makes sense." Ruotao rolled his eyes, and then said: "Tell me, does this ancient beast feed on living creatures that can use the power of thunder and lightning, so it has so many powerful creatures in its belly?
Animal bones with electric energy attached to them?"
"It's possible." Demon Mandrill's eyes lit up, and then he said, "I didn't expect this. You are really smart."
"Hey, actually if you think about it carefully, you can guess it, so it's nothing."
When Ruotao said this, she noticed that the golden wren chick was guarding the palace with three eyes, and a large group of thunderhoppers were rummaging around for various bones, and then smashed them into pieces to absorb the power of thunder and lightning inside.
Very happy.
"It seems that these remaining animal bones don't contain much thunder and lightning power. At most, they can just give the little guys some snacks."
"What I'm saying is, sister, your thunder-swallowing blade can release a sword force at will, and the power of thunder and lightning is much more than the total electric force contained in these bones."
After hearing Ruotao's words, Demon Mandrill said: "Our goal should be to find the source of electricity, but we still don't have a clue what form this thing has and where it is."
"It doesn't matter, anyway, in the corpse of this ancient beast, the little thunderhoppers are 'local snakes' and can always lead us to find clues, but..."
After a pause at this point, Ruotao glanced around and said: "We don't have much time left. After all, we can't stay here for too long. We still have to go back to meet the young master, sister and the others.
.”
"If we can't find the source of the lightning power in this corpse, it would be a good idea if we take away a few horned thunderhoppers who are willing to follow us before we leave, right?"
"Hehehe, I think so too." The mandrill laughed and said, "Especially the little thunderhopper leading the way. It seems to like the preserved fruit on the head of the elder sister very much. In the end, it will definitely follow it at all costs."
"Squeak, squeak." When the two of them were walking and chatting, the little thunderhopper on the opposite side suddenly jumped back with a low cry. As soon as Ruotao stretched out his hand, it immediately jumped onto the palm of his hand and barked at Ruotao.
Two sounds.
"What, you and your other companions have discovered something again?" Ruotao said as she and Mandrill walked towards the location of the thunderhoppers in front. This time, they were both a little surprised after seeing the debris everywhere.
Look.
"Mandrill, these bones on the ground seem to belong to the remains of a large circle of club-horned thunderhoppers, right?"
"That's right, eldest sister." The demon mandrill nodded slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "It seems that the club-horned thunderhopper is also one of the foods that this ancient beast likes to eat, so this guy has the bone remains of the giant thunderhopper in his stomach.
.”
"Squeak, squeak!" At this moment, all the thunderhoppers gathered around Ruotao and Demon Mandrill, and all screamed. The sound seemed a bit sad and mournful. Demon Mandrill asked in a low voice: "Tell me, these
How should the remains be disposed of?”
"Well, it's a bit pitiful to leave them here. Let's just let Shanwei and Ghost King be cremated." Ruotao said, then looked at the little thunderhoppers around him and said, "What do you think?"
None of the stick-horned thunderhoppers had any opinions. After hearing Ruotao's words, they remained silent at first. After two or three breaths, the little thunderhopper took the lead in chirping and making a statement. It meant to obey Ruotao's decision. The rest of the thunderhoppers
They all nodded.
"Shanwei, let's start." Ruotao nodded and gave the order.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh"
It was too late, but it was too soon. Four Arms Shanwei and the Demon-Binding Ghost King suddenly released a large amount of raw fire flames, rushing towards the corpses everywhere. The bones of those big thunderhoppers were already fragile, and now they were hit by the fierce fire.
Burning, it began to crackle in an instant, and then turned into ashes.
"Chirp oh, chirp!" At this moment, the golden wren chick suddenly let out a low cry, and then pointed forward with its wings.
Ruotao, the Demon Mandrill took a closer look and immediately found something shining among the burned ashes, so he immediately walked over to check. The Demon Mandrill used the ice-breaker to dig into the ashes a few times, "Gululu!" Immediately a small thing rolled out.
came out.
This is a small crystal that shines with a strange light. Ruotao picked it up and looked at it carefully, and then said: "This should be something derived from the essence of the dead giant thunderhopper. It contains some thunder and lightning power."
Immediately afterwards, Ruotao turned around and asked: "How about it, little thunderhoppers, do you want to swallow this thing?"
"Zhizhi!" After hearing this, the little thunderhopper leading the way jumped over first and shouted at Ruotao, which meant: "I want to devour it."
"Okay, if you are brave enough, I will give you one." Ruotao said, handed the thing to the other party, and then said: "Shanwei Ghost King, hurry up and dig through the other burned ashes. As long as you find this kind of crystal
, take it back immediately."
"Woooooo!" After hearing this, the Four Arms Mountain Peak, the Demon-Binding Ghost King immediately agreed and led the demons and ghosts to search around.
At the same time, the little thunderhopper swallowed the crystal and suddenly started to tremble all over. The other horned thunderhoppers, little golden wrens, and three-eyed geckos all gathered around and stared at each other's condition intently.
"Huh! Swish, swish, swish -"
It was too late, but it was too soon. Suddenly, circles of sizzling electric ripples appeared around the little thunderhopper's body. Many twisted blood tendons appeared on its body surface, and it looked very painful. Ruotao looked down.
He shouted: "Don't give up, you can definitely do it."
"Squeak, squeak!" Little Lei Hao heard Ruotao's words and looked at her instinctively, with a look of help flashing in her eyes. Ruotao said: "Okay, I understand, let me help you."
"Whoosh!" The moment he finished speaking, Ruotao suddenly output a burst of spiritual energy, covering the body of the little thunder grasshopper to alleviate the negative impact caused by it devouring the grasshopper crystal.
In an instant, the little thunderhopper felt a lot better. Then, it made a low sound and kept shaking its body. The released electric energy was suddenly retracted into its body again. At this moment, the little thunderhopper changed.
De was full of energy and jumped up to Ruotao, squeaking and looking very happy.
"Yeah, that's good." Ruotao said with a smile: "It seems that you have absorbed the power of thunder and lightning in the grass crystal and become much stronger."
