Immediately afterwards, Guan Heng took the Evil Goose Mother and the Cantharis King into the secret cave. This area was not too big. After everyone walked around inside, the Evil Goose Mother said: "Master, in addition to Apart from the strong weird aura, it seems like you can’t find anything else?”
"Well, it looks like this from the surface, but you can't just pay attention to the surface when looking at things." Guan Heng said casually: "So, we have to look more carefully."
"It's true. I'm a little impatient."
The evil goose mother nodded. At this moment, the Cantharis King twisted its fat body and crawled to the area more than ten feet in front. He patted the rock wall with his front paws and Guan Heng said : "It seems that it discovered something suspicious earlier than us."
"Think about it. King Cantharis and the others have absorbed this kind of scent for a long time, so they are naturally more sensitive and easy to detect."
As the insect mother spoke, she and Guan Heng came closer to watch. At the same time, Guan Heng reached out to touch the rock wall, then nodded and said, "Well, it is indeed a bit suspicious."
"Would you like to break it into pieces and look inside?"
"Of course, I'll do it myself."
"Pah!" Guan Heng replied, and suddenly he slapped his palm on the rock wall, "Crash!" Stone fragments fell to the ground, and a large hole suddenly appeared in the rock wall.
At this time, Guan Heng, the evil worm mother, and the cantharis king took a closer look, and immediately discovered something shining with red light.
"This is the source of the aura."
"But this, this doesn't look like red metal, it looks like crystal." The mother evil worm expressed her doubts.
Guan Heng nodded: "You are right, I think so too, but, it is undeniable that its aura is very similar to red metal..."
"Buzz buzz... buzz buzz..." Just when Guan Heng said this, the Hongyun Sword in the sword box behind him suddenly trembled. Guan Heng immediately took out the sword, and the tip of the Hongyun Sword moved slightly. , immediately pointed to the rock wall inlaid with large crystals.
"I see, do you want these things? Whatever, as long as you like it, it's not a problem." Guan Heng said to himself at this time: "But how do you plan to absorb it?"
After thinking for a moment, Guan Heng smiled: "That's all, I'll let you decide by yourself, go ahead."
"Snapped!"
It was too late, but it was too soon. Guan Heng suddenly thrust the sword into the middle of the red crystal, "Grrrrrrrrrrrr!" The next moment, the Hongyun Sword, which had only a few inches of sword tip nailed into the crystal, unexpectedly He stabbed it inside automatically, and within a few breaths, only the hilt of the sword was left outside.
"Master, this is..." The evil goose mother's eyes widened at this time and she whispered.
Guan Heng said casually: "It seems that Hongyun Sword is quite satisfied with this thing, and now it will start to absorb the opponent's essence on its own."
"That's it." The evil goose mother opened her mouth. She originally wanted to say something, but suddenly stopped. She decided to observe it by herself first, and then make a judgment, or seek Guan Heng's explanation.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh”” The red light around the hilt of the Hongyun Sword flashed on and off in the flash of lightning, but soon, this light gradually weakened and disappeared. Gradually, There was only a translucent crystal left in front of everyone's eyes.
"Crack!" The next moment, the large piece of crystal that had lost its light shattered and turned into powder. It was obvious that its essence had been completely absorbed by the Hongyun Sword.
"Phew!" The next moment, the Hongyun Sword was inserted at Guan Heng's feet. He said with a smile: "You have a big appetite. These crystals are completely scrapped."
"Squeak, chirp!" At this moment, King Cantharis, who had crawled to the rock crevice where the crystal was originally located, suddenly screamed. Guan Heng and the evil worm mother turned around and asked in unison: "What's wrong?"
At this moment, King Cantharis pushed something out of the crack in the stone.
Guan Heng picked it up and took a look, and it turned out to be a red crystal bead. He smiled and said: "The aura released by this object seems to be a bit heavier than what the Hongyun Sword absorbed just now. In my opinion, this is The real baby is almost there.”
"Yeah?"
After hearing this, the evil goose mother also came forward to take a closer look, and then said: "Well, that's true."
Guan Heng asked at this time: "Is there anything else in the cracks in the rocks?"
After hearing this, King Cantharis whispered to him and the mother insect, and asked the mother insect to send a few helpers to him to move things into the cracks in the rocks. The mother evil goose obeyed and let a few helpers The Clam and the Cantharis King got into the crack in the stone again, and within a few breaths they took out three crystal beads, two large and one small.
"There are four beads in total, three big and one small."
Guan Heng weighed these things, and then said: "Well, it seems a bit wasteful to just crush the Hongyun Sword and let the Hongyun Sword absorb the breath inside. How about I slightly modify it and make a few grooves on the Hongyun Sword? , put the beads in it, it’s more suitable.”
"Yes, Master, this can be regarded as making the best use of everything." The evil goose mother said with a smile.
"I'll put the beads away first." Guan Heng said, putting them into the small storage clam, and then said to the mother insect and the cantharides king: "Okay, let's go find other cantharis, and then look at the earth spirit warrior and the cantharides. Lion-maned apes digging for red metal."
…
A few moments later, Guan Heng came to the area where metal was being mined. At this time, everyone had almost completed all the work. It was very fast. Guan Heng was very satisfied. He then called out the little earth toads and asked them to transfer all the red metal back to the ethereal toad. tripod.
Immediately afterwards, Guan Heng led the evil goose mother, the lion's mane giant ape, the cantharis king and his companions on the return journey, and quickly returned to his companions.
After placing the self-destructing cantharis and giant ape, Qian Xin said to Guan Heng: "The crystal-armored cricket and the little cricket seem to like an area close to the water source in the Ethereal Toad Cauldron, and have settled in that place. If the Cantharis King and his family like it, You might as well go there.”
"Well, as long as they are honest, they will naturally not cause their own explosion, nor will they affect other living beings. As for how to eradicate the hidden danger of cantharis, I will arrange it in a while."
After saying this, Guan Heng turned around and looked around, saying, "Okay, it's time for us to head to the next mine."
…
Not long after, we were walking on the road to the underground area.
"Woooo, wooooo!" The treasure-armored land turtle jumped up and down around its companions, making a cheerful low sound. The frost-browed ancient donkey, the stubborn stone scorpion, the white-bearded mud cockatoo, and a few small dry catfish all followed. Behind it, play everywhere.
Seeing this scene, Qinghuang said: "Oh, don't you know how to be quiet for a while? It's really noisy."
"Forget it, it's idle anyway, let them play, as long as they don't leave our sight." Qian Xin said with a smile: "Otherwise, wouldn't it be more troublesome if they ran away and got lost?"
