"Well, it's really sweet." Chewing the rhizome, the water mysterious spirit beast muttered: "This tastes very good."
"How about we dig out this stem, take a piece back and give it to Miss Gu Sang. Maybe she can plant it with Mu Xuan's spiritual energy, and then she can praise us." Gu Huang Hou Lai suggested.
"This is a good idea." King Jiaxiu said, "I think it's feasible."
"Then let's do it." The Water Mysterious Spirit Beast waved its little paws and said, "Little white unicorns and blue bugs, come over and help us. Open up all the surrounding soil so that we can find a longer Cut off the rhizome and take it away."
"Squeak, chirp!" After hearing this, the unicorns and blue bugs immediately murmured and gathered around. They began to dig up the soil to expose more roots to everyone. The Nine Palace Sparrow whispered: "Wow, this rhizome is really long, and it's getting thicker and thicker the more you dig it."
"It looks very long, but we only need to cut off a section." The water mysterious spirit beast said: "It is not easy for this plant to grow to such an extent. If we cut off its lifeline and cause it to lose its vitality, then It’s a pity.”
"It's true, then take a piece." Guhuanghou looked left and right, and tapped the surface of the rhizome with his short-handled shovel, and continued: "Then you have to choose a good location."
"Huh?" At this moment, the Fire-eating Bird came to the soil next to the rhizome, dug a few times with its paws, and then immediately shouted: "Look here."
"Is it the colorful wild mushroom?!"
"It turns out that these wild mushrooms grow on rhizomes. No wonder they taste so delicious. They can also heal wounds. This is a good thing."
"It's right to think about it. This underground aura is barren. Only this weird plant rhizome can emit some aura. Of course, the colorful wild mushrooms must adhere to its surface to grow better."
As he said that, the Water Mysterious Spirit Beast stepped forward, broke off a piece of wild mushroom with his claws, threw it into his mouth, chewed it, and then said, "Look, it's even more delicious than the wild mushroom that just grew in the soil."
"Really?" After hearing this, everyone immediately gathered around and said, "We also want to try it."
"You can taste it, but remember not to eat too much. We have to take some back to show Guan Heng and his sisters."
When the Water Mysterious Spirit Beast warned them, the Golden Stinging King and the others had already started eating.
"It smells so good."
"Mmm, crispy and sweet."
"too delicious."
"Hey, second brother, did you eat an extra piece?"
"Hey, look, your mouth is full!" Seeing these guys eating smoothly, they couldn't stop themselves. The water mysterious beast immediately shouted in a low voice: "That's enough, that's enough, don't eat anymore!" "
"Stingy, it's not from your family. What does it matter if you let us eat more?" When he said this, Guhuang Hou Lai had just swallowed the wild mushrooms in his mouth, and the Water Xuan Spirit Beast said angrily. : "Who won't let you eat? What I mean is to keep some of it and take it back to Guan Heng."
"As long as Guan Heng's Mu Xuan aura and Shui Xuan aura are there, you will definitely be able to plant this stem. When the time comes, you can plant it in the Ethereal Toad Cauldron and eat as much as you want. Why bother to have fun now and delay important events? "
"Well, that seems to make sense."
"Yeah, yeah, don't eat it for now."
"Uh... hiccup... I'm a little bit overwhelmed."
"Bah, you are really worthless." At this time, the Water Mysterious Spiritual Beast said to Guhuang Roar: "Have you found the most suitable place to cut it off?"
"Well, it should be right here." As he said that, Houyi gestured at a certain position of the rhizome and continued: "As long as it is cut off from here, it will not damage the rhizome too much, and it can also take away enough for us. Take one section away.”
"Well, you're right, let's do it." The water mysterious spirit beast used its claws to scratch a few marks on the surface of the rhizome, and then just about to tell the roaring snake to do it, at this moment, the golden stinging king Douhu Screaming: "The situation is not right, you should retreat quickly!"
"What?!" After hearing this, the Water Mysterious Spiritual Beast and the Ancient Desolate Howler rushed behind without hesitation.
"Cack!" Several "round bumps" suddenly bulged out on the surface of the rhizome, "Plop, crackle!" Then, these bulges burst into pieces, and seven or eight quick shadows sprang out from inside, and they crawled quickly along the rhizome. , heading straight towards everyone.
These things are centipedes covered with silver-white scales. There are countless sliding jointed legs on both sides of the body. There are huge scissor-like sharp jaws on the front of the head. They look extremely fierce.
If it had been anyone else, they might have been bluffed by the opponent. Unfortunately, these guys chose the wrong opponent from the beginning and actually pounced on the Jiugongque.
"Seeking death!" Suddenly fluttering his feathers, the fire-eating Nine Palace Bird instantly flew into the air, and then spit out a large stream of raw fire flames towards these silver-scaled centipedes.
"Whoosh whoosh - whoosh whoosh -" In just the blink of an eye, half of the silver-scaled centipedes were burned to ashes. The remaining few hid far away, and steam began to emit from all over their bodies, and even The aroma of meat wafted out, it felt like it was cooked!
"Hahaha, you can't eat too many colorful wild mushrooms, but you can try this roasted centipede meat, come on."
The Water Mysterious Spiritual Beast said, stretched out its claws to clasp a roasted centipede, and with just a slight flick, the scale shell of the other party fell off, and the fragrant and hot centipede meat was inside.
"Wow...it's delicious!" Throwing a piece of snow-white barbecue into his mouth, the water mysterious spirit beast shouted: "It's as delicious as wild mushrooms, but this roasted one has a different taste, it's so fragrant. "
"Really? I'll try it too." After hearing this, the big furniture gathered around, picked up the roasted silver-scaled centipedes, peeled off the shells, and ate them all.
"Ah, it tastes really good." Jiugongque said with emotion: "This is my first time to eat grilled centipede meat."
"Squeak, squeak."
At this moment, the little white unicorn fairy and the backfire blue bug were also fighting for two plump roasted centipedes, and they were enjoying themselves. The roaring centipede and the golden centipede king each picked up one and chewed it. They had forgotten about the time and felt that the meat was so delicious.
"Uh..." After burping, the Golden Sting King suddenly glanced at a few holes on the rhizome and said, "Xiao Shuishui, I think our previous judgment was a bit off."
"Oh, how do you say this?"
"Just now we thought that the colorful wild mushrooms grew by adhering to the surface of the rhizome, but now it seems that the inside of this rhizome has been bitten and hollowed out by silver-scaled centipedes. If we don't care, the body of this spiritual plant can be He’s dead.”
The King of Golden Stingers said: "Should we call Mr. Guan here and ask him to find a way to save this plant?"
"Yes."
