Tomb Robbery: Successor to the King, starting in Yunnan Worm Valley

Chapter 480 Insect Tide
  Judging from Professor Sun's description, this coffin insect looks like some kind of termite.

Of course, they are definitely mutated termites.

The change in food habits is not great.

I still like to eat rotten wood, meat, bones and the like.

But since they are mutated termites, they may not be that easy to deal with.

Because Wang Ye knew that certain types of termites can spray acid.

Designed to corrode trees and even masonry and metal.

There are also some species of termites that spray slime.

Coupled with the huge number and the reminders that are magnified many times, it is definitely not something easy to deal with.

"However, these coffin bugs usually stay on the coffin cliffs on both sides of Coffin Mountain and live in rock crevices."

"It is also recorded in the "Coffin Mountain Excavation Record" that when Feng Shigu led others into the Coffin Gorge to build the Dixian Village, he had already discovered this weird coffin worm."

"At that time, the Guanshan Taibao also used a lot of force to exterminate these coffin insects."

"The Guanshan Taibao lineage was originally good at repelling insects and spreading smoke. I originally thought that these coffin insects could be easily eliminated."

"But I didn't expect that until the end, not only were all the coffin bugs not eradicated, but in fact many people were lost in the process of exterminating the coffin bugs."

"These coffin worms have various special powers. First of all, these coffin worms can easily chew up things like wood and bones. Even bricks and tiles can be chewed up without much problem. At the same time, these coffin bugs The coffin bug also sprays a strange venom that can make metal products more fragile, and then gnaws at these brittle metals."

"Once the number of coffin worms increases, not even a bit of bone residue will be left wherever they pass."

"At the same time, this coffin bug also hates flames very much. Once there is an open flame such as a flame torch in the place where it lives, it will rush out and spray venom and mucus at these flames until the flames are extinguished."

After Wang Ye heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

In other words, the fact that everyone lit candles just now might be the reason that attracted these coffin insects?

Is it even possible that open fires are not used in Dixian Village? Is there such a reason?

But at this time, Hu Bayi was thinking of another situation.

The coffin worm described by Professor Sun sounds very much like the ancient city of Jingjue where Fatty Hu Bayi and Chief of Staff Yang first collaborated in every aspect.

During their expedition, they passed through the desert.

The army ants encountered in the desert are actually somewhat similar to the coffin insects here.

It's just that although the army ants at that time were also a bit scary, even as long as an inch, compared with the current coffin ants, the largest one is one foot long, and the ordinary coffin ants are three inches long, they are still more than one size smaller.

At the same time, the army ants are extremely fierce and their jaws are very sharp, but this thing does not spray any venom, acid or the like.

But everyone's consensus now is that it's better to hide as soon as possible.

Wang Ye frowned slightly.

Of course I don't have to avoid it.

What is a coffin worm?
  Giant mutated termites?

But so what?

Wang Ye, who has the blood of the ancestral dragon, may be least afraid of monsters and evil spirits, such as coffin worms and army ants.

No matter what kind of bug comes out, they must behave honestly when they see Wang Ye.

As long as there is one dishonorable one, the Ancestral Dragon Bloodline can destroy all the bugs.   But, Wang Ye held back and did not say anything.

Although Shirley Yang was clear-headed and remembered that Wang Ye seemed not afraid of bugs, she also remembered that she was not particularly sure.

In addition, the coffin worm is different from the previous insects, and the psychological shadow of the army ants is too great, so I didn't say anything.

The reason why Wang Ye didn't give any warning was because Hu Bayi and others later had to avoid the coffin worm and had to enter the ancient tomb under the Guanshan Ancient Building in Dixian Village.

There are still many good things in that ancient tomb.

Wang Ye was on the ground, clearing out everything in the Feng family's old house that was of high quality and could be sold for some money.

If you want to continue to make a fortune, you will naturally have to go to other ancient tombs and shady houses.

To find and decipher these ancient tombs, it still requires the two golden captains, Hu Bayi Wang Fatty, to find the dragon's point hole and kick down the door to get to the tomb.

Therefore, Wang Ye shamefully echoed the opinions of Hu Bayi and others.

Everyone said that they should hide away from the limelight for a while. Wang Ye quickly said yes, yes, yes, he must hide.

As for where to hide, I quickly made a decision. I dismantled some seats and benches and went to hide in the tomb under the Guanshan Ancient Canglou.

Because they had to fight against insects, Hu Bayi and Wang Fatty were dismantling the wood and preparing to light the torch.

Professor Sun stopped the two people with runny noses and tears, saying that doing so was tantamount to asking for death.

Once the torch is lit in Dixian Village, even more terrifying changes will definitely occur.

Maybe it will attract the Nine Death Jingling Armor.

Wang Ye sneered when he heard this.

The Nine Death Jingling Armor would have been here long ago if it was attracted by the flames.

At that time, the explosion of so many explosives in the Cannon Temple was enough to attract them.

And even if the Nine Death Jingling Armor wants to come, it won't be attracted by a few candlelight torches.

The biggest problem still lies with the three fat men, Hu Bayi Wang and Shirley Yang.

According to the original world line, all this is fate.

The purpose of the three people going to Dixian Village was to find the inner elixir of the Alchemy Cauldron. At the same time, in order to find the location of Dixian Village, they also specially brought the Dragon Talisman and Fish Talisman.

Professor Sun even tricked Hu Bayi and others into going to Nanhai Guixu to get the Nanhai Gua Mirror.

This set of things all smells of dragon fire.

Monsters like the Jingling Tomb Armor of Nine Deaths have the characteristic of embracing yin and tending to Yang. That is, if the yang energy is too strong somewhere, the bronze blood erosion on the Jingling Tomb Armor of Nine Deaths will attract this yang energy.

Eventually, the Nine Death Jingling Armor will break through the rocks on the mountain wall and appear near the source of Yang Qi.

Coincidentally, the dragon fire is one of the strongest yang energy in the world. The bronze dragon talisman, fish talisman and Guixu hexagram mirror carried by Hu Bayi and others, although the dragon fire on them has almost been consumed.

But the little remaining dragon fire energy was enough to attract the Nine Death Jingling Armor from the rock.

The coffin bugs that originally lived in the crevices of the coffin slab cliffs around Coffin Mountain naturally couldn't stand the disturbance and excitement of the Nine Death Jingling Armor, so they came out of the mountain one after another and headed straight for Dixian Village.

Just in time, there was an open fire inside the Guanshan Canggu Building.

The tide of coffin bugs, who had been driven out of their homes and had nowhere to release their grievances, naturally rushed to the Guanshan Canggu Tower area out of their instinct to put out fires.
