Guan Heng flicked out this finger, which contained some original power, and immediately allowed the little beast to speak human words. It looked panicked and screamed: "Sparse, please, my meat is smelly and hard, I really can't eat it." …”
"Hehehe, I don't believe what you said." Seeing it speak, Ruotao deliberately said with a bit of joking: "How does it taste? You have to taste it with your own mouth, right, Qinghuang?"
"Hehehe, that's right." Qinghuang reached out and patted the little beast's body, and said softly: "Hmm, this body is fatter and thinner. It looks like it was roasted on the fire. It must be sizzling. It’s oily and fragrant.”
"Woooooooo..." When the little butterfly-eared beast heard this, he rolled his eyes in fright. Guan Heng said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't scare it. If you go too far and scare it to death, it will be bad." .”
Then, he turned to look at the other person and said, "Hey, little guy, we were just joking to tease you and we won't hurt you. Tell me, what's your name?"
"My, our clan is called 'Butterfly-eared Gophers'."
After listening to Guan Heng's words, the little beast calmed down a little. In addition, because it absorbed his spiritual energy, it became closer to Guan Heng, so it timidly said truthfully: "I live in this desert underground, but recently I haven't been here. Dare to come out of the tunnel."
"Why is this..." When Guan Henggang asked this, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he immediately blurted out: "Is it because of the weird plague that is raging here?"
"Exactly." The little beast blinked when it saw Guan Heng guessing the reason. It thought to itself: "This man is really smart and powerful. Maybe he can..."
Just when the butterfly-eared gopher was thinking wildly, Guan Heng said: "Hey, you are just hiding underground to avoid the plague. Why do you want to emerge from the soil? Aren't you going to be infected with the plague at any time and looking for trouble?"
"Well, you don't know something. The underground tunnel we are hiding in also has disadvantages. There is not much breathable air there. Even if there is, it is very thin. There is not enough for thousands of companions to share? So everyone has to get out from time to time to take a breath. , otherwise, I will have to suffocate myself to death."
After a pause at this point, the Butterfly-eared Mouse continued: "If in the past, our patriarch uncle could still look for an area that could provide unobstructed air, but when the plague hit, the first one to fall ill was the patriarch. .”
Gu Sangnu next to her asked, "Is your clan leader dead?"
"No, not dead..." the little beast said: "Somehow, we later went to other beast tribes to inquire, and found that after everyone was infected with the plague, the onset and death time were completely different, with longer and shorter times, so the patriarch uncle I found a way to save my life."
Hearing this, Qinghuang, Gu Sangnu and Ruotao all became interested, so they all asked: "What can we do?"
"In the deeper area of the desert where we live, there is an underground river that is half frozen and half living water. If ordinary beasts jumped into it, they would be frozen to death. Only the patriarch, who has thick skin and thick flesh, often goes down to take a bath. , but I don’t dare to stay with it for a long time.”
The mouse continued: "But after the uncle was infected by the plague, he immediately plunged into the ice water, saying that he wanted to freeze himself into an ice lump. In this way, the time limit for the plague to invade the whole body could be slowed down."
"It seems that the boss of this butterfly-eared gopher is quite smart and knows how to use first aid." Guan Heng touched his chin and said with a smile, "But it's just a matter of survival."
"This powerful uncle." Mouse raised his paws and bowed to him: "Since you can save the little one, you can definitely save the patriarch uncle. Please help him once, please!"
"Hehehe, it's okay to help it...but, what's the benefit to me?"
Guan Heng saw the other party's naive look and originally planned to agree to it, but Guan Heng was joking in his heart, so he said this deliberately. The mouse rolled its eyes, and then said with a sad face: "Uncle Strong, our gopher clan is all miserable, and we don't have much treasure to contribute to you."
"Huh, you're asking for help and you don't even have any thanks? You rats are really unruly."
Xiao Bai knew clearly that Guan Heng was playing with the butterfly-eared mouse, but he still continued to tease him and said casually: "Guan Heng, in my opinion, forget it. There is no benefit at all from helping these little mice. Let's hurry up." It’s important to look for that extinct volcano.”
"Huh?!" After hearing this, Mouse seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and immediately said hurriedly: "What, are you looking for the volcano in this world? Then it is even more important to save our patriarch uncle. .”
Hearing this, Ruotao asked, "Oh, what's the reason for this?"
"The eldest uncle of my family often said that he is the 'living map' of the entire world of Nirvana. When he was young, he once traveled throughout the entire world of Nirvana, traveling everywhere, and even met the legendary 'Five Beast Kings' , and we are brothers to each other."
The mouse finished these words in one breath, and then said to Guan Heng again: "Uncle, as long as you save the clan leader, it can definitely act as a guide and lead you to the area where the volcano is."
"Hmm, that's not bad. I can also get rid of the plague that is plaguing your gopher clan and save you from harm." Guan Heng thought for a while and then asked: "Hey, who of you would like to join me? Are you going to go to the underground river to rescue the leader of the gophers?"
"Go underground? I'd better forget it." Qinghuang shook his head and said, "It will make the clothes on your body dirty, and I don't want it."
Hearing this, Ruotao and Gu Sangnu looked at each other and pointed at Qinghuang with a joking look on their faces: "Then let's decide it's her!"
"Huh?!" Qinghuang said with a sad face: "Hey, can you be considered good sisters like this? Leave all the hard work to me."
"Okay, I'll give you one more chance to explore and hunt for treasure. You should have fun secretly." While smiling, Ruotao pushed her to Guan Heng's side and said, "Sir, our Qinghuang I've entrusted you to keep it for now, feel free to give her instructions, but don't give me face."
"Pfft..." The Gu Sang girl next to her covered her mouth and was enjoying herself, but Guan Heng shrugged indifferently and said: "Okay, then I will take her there, but if I find any interesting treasure, you two will have no share. My son, it all belongs to Qinghuang."
Ruotao said: "It's up to you, as long as we're not greedy anyway."
"Then let's go. Hey, mouse, lead the way quickly."
"Yes, thank you, Uncle Guan." The butterfly-eared mouse shook its head, and then said: "However, the passages for our mouse tribe to enter and exit are very narrow. I guess the two of you may not be able to get through..."
"It doesn't matter. Mother Chong, Miao Gui Miao, and Xiao Bai, all of you come here." Hearing Guan Heng's call, Chong Miao and Miao Chong immediately came closer.
