Deep underground, there were many caves, which were dug by various insects.
These nine ants, in addition to digging by themselves, would also use these wormholes to move forward.
The young master of Baishi took a sip of tea, looked at the man sitting on the animal skin with his eyes closed, and asked, "What did you see?"
The man sitting on the animal skin was very impatient, complaining that the young master was really impatient. How long had it been? He asked four times already! The answer was also distracting, and the more distracted it was, the more energy it would consume.
No matter what he thought, the man with the skeleton did not show any disgust on his face, but more respectfully said, "It's still moving forward."
He could perceive some things through those ants, and then guide them to do things. In order to meet the young master's request, he did not hesitate to take out the sand ants that he had been raising for a long time. He was not a slave, but he had always maintained a slave-like status. Because of his own ability, his status among the slaves in Baishi was not bad.
If Shao Xuan was here, he would be very surprised to see the totem patterns on the young man sitting on the animal skin. This was because Shao Xuan was very familiar with the totem patterns on this man's body. The totem warriors with such totem patterns were neighbors of the Yanjiao people – the Wanshi tribe!
Moreover, this young man was not an ordinary warrior, but the next shaman of the Wanshi tribe. He had been in Baishi all this time, and when he returned, it was time to succeed the shaman.
"Why haven't we arrived yet!" The young master of Baishi was dissatisfied.
The other two did not make a sound. All the explanations were nonsense, and the more they said, the more the young master's temper would be.
After a long time, when the young master was ready to ask for the eighth time, the man sitting on the animal skin finally said, "We're here!"
He had sensed through the sand ants that they had entered the Luoye City station.
Around the Beast City, any station had a lot of beasts. There were a lot of insects living there, especially the kind of dung beetles that Shao Xuan had seen before. They dug their holes very deep. Even if they were resistant to the cold, they would try to avoid the cold on the surface as much as possible when resting. Therefore, in the depths of every city, there were many wormholes.
The team of sand ants from Baishi City entered Luoye City through the underground interlaced wormholes. After advancing for a while, they went out of the hole to explore, determined the direction of the smell, and continued in that direction.
These sand ants were raised with herbs and were particularly sensitive to the smell of herbs. At this moment, they were looking for the herbs that Su Gu won a few days ago. On that day, Su Gu's victory, as well as the spoils he won, were all planned.
The role of the herb was nothing more than a positioning tool used by the people of Baishi City.
However, those people did not expect that Su Gu would give the winnings to Shao Xuan. Therefore, this group of sand ants finally found Shao Xuan's room by following the smell. They entered the room through the hole of the "sapphire" collector.
They followed the scent and continued forward, but they did not sense the fire hill stone.
In White Stone City, the person sitting cross-legged on the animal skin looked puzzled.
"What's wrong?" Baishi's young lord asked.
"We don't have any fire hill stones," the person said.
"How could there not be?! Did Su Gu go out with the fire hill stones? No, not necessarily. Your ants may have found the wrong place. Keep looking for me! "The Baishi's young lord roared.
No matter how angry his heart was, the person's face still maintained respect. "Yes."
In the Luoye City station, inside Shao Xuan's house, the nine sand ants circled around the house, intending to return to the same way. However, they found that the hole they came in from had been blocked. There was a beetle that was bigger than them.
With a task on hand, the team of sand ants immediately showed their killing intent. They wanted to fight, but soon, they found that the opponent was too strong.
In a face-to-face encounter, the head and torso of the sand ant in the front had been cut off and separated.
In White Stone City, the person sitting on the animal skin had an ugly expression.
"What's wrong?" The Baishi's young lord asked. Seeing that the other person did not answer, he got up from the chair, stepped forward a few steps, and continued to ask, "Tell me, what's wrong?"
"There is … Poof!" The words had not yet been spoken when the person sitting on the animal skin spurted out a mouthful of blood.
This time, even the person in the house who had not made a sound could not help but frown.
"Dao Yu, what do you think happened to him? What did he encounter? "The Baishi's young lord looked at the person who had not made a sound.
Dao Yu's eyes flashed with sarcasm. From the wooden box next to him, he took out a medicinal herb, crushed it into mud, and fed it to the person on the animal skin.
After swallowing the medicine, the person on the animal skin breathed slowly. He did not bother to say more, nor did he look at the Baishi's young lord. He closed his eyes and continued to do what he had just done. Whether he could see the fire hill stones or not, his carefully fed sand ants must be withdrawn!
Immediately after the first one, the second and third sand ants had been completely disconnected from his consciousness, which meant that those sand ants were all dead!
He could not continue to drag it on!
He must let them escape! If a team could not escape, then they would separate and escape! Every single one of them that managed to escape counted!
He could not see exactly what the sand ants had encountered. He could only perceive a vague image from his consciousness. It was not a beetle, but something wrapped in flames that looked like a horn.
Seeing the Baishi's young lord's angry face and intending to ask, Dao Yu hurriedly said, "Young Lord, the situation is different. Do not worry, wait a moment."
"Different? What's different? Didn't you say that you can do it?! " The Baishi's young lord lifted his leg and kicked the chair next to him, but now there was no other way. He could only wait.
In the Luoye City station, the slaves responsible for cleaning up the animal pen and taking care of the riding beasts and fighting beasts found that today, the insects in the animal pen were particularly few. It was rare to see a shadow of a beetle. Did they encounter a natural enemy?
However, the task of these slaves was only to take care of the riding beasts and fighting beasts, not pay attention to the insects. Even if they found that the insects were less today, they did not care and continued their task of cleaning up the animal pen.
In a place where people did not know, there was a large-scale chase and interception.
Of the nine sand ants, four were left in Shao Xuan's house, while the other five fled separately. Some went into the hole from which they came, some fled from other places, and then climbed out from the window or the door. After that, they either escaped from the ground or found a hole to escape from underground.
However, even if they fled separately, they could not escape the encirclement of hundreds of thousands of beetles. Especially when they drilled into the underground hole, they were directly blocked there.
"Poof!"
In the Baishi station, the man sitting on the animal skin spurted out a mouthful of blood. He looked weaker than before and his face was gray. Not only was it caused by the severing of the sand ants' consciousness, but it was mainly caused by his anger.
He spent a lot of effort to cultivate the sand ants, a total of less than twenty. Now, all of a sudden, there were nine less!!
It was more painful than cutting his flesh!
