Time and Space Tavern

Chapter 378 Rotten Sea
Nausicaa picked up the glove on the table, tucked it under her arm, and stretched out her hand towards Dido the squirrel.

The little guy's stomach was a little distended, facing Nausicaa's extended hand, he rolled lazily on the table, holding a hazelnut tightly with his two paws and not letting go.

"Dido!" Nausicaa frowned.

Hu Squirrel let out a low voice, got up from the table, and jumped into Nausicaa's collar.

After zipping it up, Nausicaa put on the gloves and flight cap, and said to Qiao Mu, "Mr. Qiao, please follow me."

Qiao Mu nodded.

When the two walked to the portal, Nausicaa turned around and noticed that Qiao Mu hadn't changed his clothes, and asked suspiciously, "Don't you need to change?"

Pointing to the funny protective mask on her mouth, she said, "Outside is the sea of ​​rot, and the miasma is terrible."

Qiao Mu was wearing a navy blue shirt, light gray slacks on his lower body, a bracelet-shaped "Green Goblin suit" and a smart bracelet on his wrists, and no protective device on his head.

Faced with Nausicaa's kind reminder, Qiao Mu just shook his head and smiled.

Nausicaa suddenly thought of the magical items in the tavern and Qiao Mu's special abilities, and felt a little enlightened.

It's just that there is still a trace of doubt in her heart. After all, the fear of the sea of ​​decay and miasma is deeply rooted in the hearts of everyone in the Valley of the Wind.

Holding the slightest suspicion, Nausicaa raised her leg and stepped into the portal.

When the familiar suction force came, she only felt a flash of light in front of her eyes, and her vision became bright again.

Seeing the spore plant at hand, Nausicaa's eyes flashed with a trace of complexity.

Qiao Mu also appeared in this world.

He didn't use any protective equipment, so he inhaled the miasma-laden air into his nasal cavity all at once.

The air is slightly humid, with a very light sweet smell.

The more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they are.

This sweet smell is the smell of that deadly miasma.

Qiao Mu's strength has already surpassed the holy rank, and his physique has reached 32 times that of ordinary people. He has a strong resistance to these poisons.

What's more, because he has practiced the inner strength "Nine Yin and Nine Yangs" and has reached an extremely profound level, he is very sensitive to this kind of qi, and can completely rely on his own inner strength to dissolve this miasma and expel it from the body.

"Let's go." Qiao Mu said.

Nausicaa nodded heavily.

She began to climb up the cliff, and soon found a cave large enough for one person to pass through.

The cave is not dark, but there are some spores floating with light spots.

"There are no bugs here, let's go in here." Nausicaa looked back at Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu nodded and followed behind her.

Bending down and walking in the cave, Qiao Mu looked at everything around him.

Everything here is strange, the various special fungi and plants are colorful, and the spores floating in the air are full of a mysterious beauty.

Needless to say, the scenery here is very good.

Nausicaa turned her head to remind Qiao Mu from time to time.

"Be careful of that red poisonous insect fungus, don't step on it," Nausicaa said, pointing to a finger-sized crimson mushroom next to it. Even if you are wearing a gas mask, you will die if you inhale it!"

Hearing Nausicaa's voice, Qiao Mu looked at it with interest.

That mushroom is like a red sun with some black spots on it, and the trees can smell its fragrance even at a distance of several meters.

"Lend me your test tube," Qiao Mu said.

Nausicaa's protective clothing had many slots on the chest, in which she placed many test tubes, which she used to collect various spores.

In order to restore her father's health, Nausicaa began to act in the sea of ​​rot long ago, collecting various spores and cultivating plants, trying to find the secrets of the sea of ​​rot and miasma.

And Qiao Mu became interested in the "poisonous fungus" that Nausicaa said.

"This kind of highly poisonous substance can be taken back and studied by the people of Tang's Pharmaceutical Industry." Qiao Mu thought to himself.

Anyway, he is also the major shareholder of Tang's Pharmaceuticals.

Such things as pollution also exist on the earth. If the principle can be studied, it may also have a certain reference effect on the control of pollution on the earth.

Of course, this is only a small direction.

If you connect to a more powerful world in the future, that little problem on Earth will be insignificant.

Although Nausicaa was worried about Qiao Mu's words, seeing that he was still safe and sound after staying here for so long, she gradually realized that Qiao Mu was indeed extraordinary.

"I should trust him." Nausicaa thought to herself.

She took out a test tube and handed it to Qiao Mu.

After getting the test tube, Qiao Mu unplugged it, and used his thoughts to control the "poisonous insect fungus" on the ground to be uprooted.

At the same time, Qiao Mu used his mind power to wrap up the poisonous insect fungus so that no trace of its breath could escape, and finally the whole thing entered the test tube.

Inserting the stopper of the test tube, Qiao Mu looked at the stunned Nausicaa, smiled and said, "Go on."

Nausicaa nodded, having a deeper understanding of Qiao Mu.

Not long after, the two walked out of the cave.

Qiao Mu's gaze instantly focused on a huge worm beside the entrance of the cave.

The worm is gray-brown with a node-shaped body, very similar to the woodworm that grows in dark and humid places on the earth, but the difference is that compared to the rice-sized woodworm, this worm is as huge as a big dog , perhaps because of the huge reminder, its body is filled with a ferocious aura.

"Shh, don't wake it up." Nausicaa whispered to Qiao Mu.

After the two of them walked past the worm, Nausicaa finally said, "That's the gray mass worm. You can often see them on roads where king worms have been haunted."

"Is it dangerous?" Qiao Mu asked.

"As long as we don't actively provoke the bugs, they are very docile, but if we provoke them, they will go all out." Nausicaa said, "They just want to survive."

She turned to look at Qiao Mu, "Although Mr. Qiao is very powerful, I hope you can respect these bugs."

Qiao Mu shrugged noncommittally.

The two entered the interior of the Corruption Sea.

More precisely, they should be in the middle of the sea of ​​rot—the whole sea of ​​rot is like a thick sponge made of various fungi, but there is a wide passage inside it, and the two of them are there at the moment channel.

The trees can feel the humidity around them, and can smell the sweet smell that becomes more and more intense.

Around him, there are all kinds of fungi, some of which are only finger-sized like poisonous insects, and some are several meters high. Through the cracks around him, you can see many trees with a height of hundreds of meters. Tall giant fungi, they are the main body of the Rot Sea.

The passage they were in was circular, obviously formed by the crushing of some kind of creature as it passed through.
