Small farmers dominate the desert island

The stone wall of the tomb was smooth, with neither words nor murals. Chen Yu could not find any information about the chelicer, so he could only pin his hopes on the legends that Gou Jia knew. He had no choice but to open the coffin to find clues.

The huge sarcophagus in the tomb, Chen Yu, who came here for treasure hunting, would definitely open it, but he was not in a hurry. The top priority was to kill those clawed beasts, otherwise he would not be able to take it out if he got the Dragon Soul Armor.

At Chen Yu's request, Gou Jia graciously sat in his arms, "There are not many legends about chelicer beasts. It is only said that in ancient times, in order to prevent the tomb from being stolen, a male and female pair would be placed when the owner of the tomb was buried. The cubs of the cicadas are in the tomb, and the grown cicadas will take the tomb as their home and guard the tomb. All foreign invaders will become their food. As for the way to kill them, I have never heard of it, but I heard that the chelicerus is gluttonous, and if there is no food for a few days, it will starve to death!"

Chen Yu frowned and thought for a while: "There is a big clawed beast in this tomb, which seems to be the offspring of the pair of male and female clawed beasts, which also proves that the ancient tomb may be a little old."

"It's not a long time ago, but a very long time ago. According to legend, it takes a thousand years for a chelicer to grow up, and only one cub can be born every thousand years. Since the son said that there are a large group of chelicerous animals, then this ancient tomb must be very, very old." Gou Jia said.

Chen Yu frowned deeply again, "What do they eat? Do we need to prepare a lot of food for them when building the tomb? Even if there is a lot of food, it is impossible to preserve it for thousands of years."

Gou Jia shook her head slightly, expressing that she didn't know either.

"Could it be that they go out to look for food?" Chen Yu muttered to himself, feeling that his guess was very reliable. Since the chelicerus will starve to death if it does not eat for a few days, there must be a large number of food sources. It is difficult to survive by going out to forage.

Gou Jia shook her head slightly again, "No, the cheeter beasts will not leave the ancient tomb, they will die when they encounter the air outside."

"Beautiful girl, don't squeeze it out like toothpaste, tell all the legends about the cheetah that you know, don't care if it's useful or not." Chen Yu said with a wry smile.

"No, that's all I know." Gou Jia said with some embarrassment.

"Really?" Chen Yu asked with a smile.

Gou Jia nodded fiercely, "Well, there is really no more, by the way, what is squeezing toothpaste?"

"Uh, now is not the time to discuss squeezing toothpaste." Chen Yu frowned again as he spoke.

Boiled beasts will starve to death if they don't eat for a few days, and they don't go out for food. Could there be food delivered to the ancient tomb for them to eat?Or does this ancient tomb have its own ecosystem and food chain?

Chen Yu couldn't help but think about the tree hole when he went down to the ancient tomb. Could it be that animals would go down from that tree hole into the ancient tomb to become food for the clawed beasts, but how many animals would have to go down into the ancient tomb to feed such a large group? What about the chelicer?

He racked his brains to think about the food for the gnats, trying to cut off their rations and starve them all to death, but he couldn't figure out why.

Legend has it that Chen Yu could not provide a way to kill the gnat. His last hope was pinned on the huge sarcophagus, and he decided to try his luck by opening the sarcophagus. If the Dragon Soul Armor was really in this sarcophagus, it might be able to defend against the sarcophagus. sound attack.

"Beautiful girl, there are a large group of chelicer beasts guarding outside. We must find a way to kill them. I want to open this sarcophagus to see if there is something to restrain the chelicerous beasts." Chen Yu felt that it was necessary to explain to Gou Jia. , I don't want to be misunderstood by her as a crime of tomb robbery, even though he came here for treasure hunting.

Gou Jia only cares about whether she can get out alive, and whether Chen Yu, who pretends to be the son of Duan in the southern Xinjiang country, can prevent the two countries from fighting. As for the ancient tomb, she doesn't care at all. She won't have any opinion after digging.

Because of this, not only did she not have any objection to Chen Yu's opening of the coffin, but she was a little impatient, "My son, what needs to be done, you tell me, and I will help you!"

Chen Yu smiled and shook his head, "I don't need your help, I can do it myself!"

Turning around the huge two-meter-high sarcophagus for a few times, Chen Yu couldn't find a way to open the sarcophagus, and took out the crystal sword with a smile: "I don't want to destroy it, but I can't think of any other way except to violently open the sarcophagus."

I wanted to find the rivets or mechanism to open the sarcophagus, but the sarcophagus was so tightly stitched that it looked like a whole. Chen Yu had no choice but to violently open the coffin with a crystal sword that cut iron like mud.

Infusing true energy into the crystal sword, Chen Yu gave Gou Jia a guilty look, but she didn't expect that she didn't care if he opened the coffin violently, even if he pulled the corpse out of the sarcophagus and beat her up, she wouldn't have it any comments.

The violent opening of the closet was very successful. Chen Yu cut open the sarcophagus vertically without much effort, but the sarcophagus was empty, there was nothing, neither a corpse nor a treasure, it was an empty coffin.

"Damn, you're so full that you built such a big tomb just to put an empty coffin!" Chen Yu cursed angrily.

"No, this is not an empty coffin, my son, take a closer look." Gou Jia, who had been following Chen Yu's every move, exclaimed in surprise.

Hearing this, Chen Yu subconsciously glanced into the sarcophagus again, and then put the crystal sword with a cyan glow into the sarcophagus and stirred it a few times, "It's empty, did you see it wrong? Dazed?"

Gou Jia said anxiously: "No, there are a lot of moths in the empty coffin, fly out, look at the crystal sword!"

"Damn, it's true!" Chen Yu had been paying attention to whether there was anything in the sarcophagus before, but after Gou Jia's reminder, he discovered that a large number of transparent micromoths were entwining the cyan light of the crystal sword.

Chapter 704 Raiders from Heaven!

"Damn, come all who are not afraid of death." Chen Yu cursed angrily and urged the infusion of true energy into the crystal sword, so that the lightsaber would wrap around the arc.

Seeing a large number of transparent micromoths being electrocuted to death, Chen Yu scolded angrily: "The owner of this tomb is really vicious. It's fine to put a lot of transparent micromoths in the tomb passage to harm people, and put a sarcophagus here It's tempting to open, it's obvious that it will make people die!"

Throughout the dynasties, emperors and generals have tried every means to prevent their tombs from being stolen. Chen Yu heard that Cao Cao had 72 suspected tombs.

But Gou Jia had a different opinion, "My lord, I think the transparent moths in this sarcophagus are not just for harming people."

"It's so different. These transparent moths have been sealed for thousands of years, or even longer, and they can still survive. It's against the sky." Chen Yu said with emotion, and then looked at Gou Jia, saying: "Not only In order to harm people, is there any other use, talk about your thoughts."

Gou Jia said slightly, "Earlier, Shizi has been thinking about what those gnats eat to survive. I think they may feed on these transparent micro-moths."

"Those big-headed sons feed on these small things like dust, don't be ridiculous, tens of billions of these small things are not enough for one of them to stick between their teeth... Uh, I think you are right." Chen Yu As he talked, he figured out what Gou Jia meant.

Although the transparent moth larvae are too small to be seen by the naked eye, they can parasitize and quickly grow up by sucking blood. The one Chen Yu picked out from the back of Gou Jia's hand earlier may not be the individual they will eventually grow up to. Maybe they can quickly grow to a larger size. big.

Then Chen Yu also thought that what was sealed in the sarcophagus was not the larvae of transparent moths, but a large number of eggs. These eggs would bloom into larvae when they met the air, and the larvae would parasitize and suck blood and grow up quickly, and then became the larvae of those gnats. For food, the chelicer will guard the tomb tightly so that it will not be stolen.

Thinking about it this way, the passage under the tree hole is most likely not an escape key left by the craftsmen, but deliberately left to allow other animals to stray into the ancient tomb and become the host of the transparent moth for them to parasitize and suck blood to grow up.

"What a meticulous design, Niucha!" Chen Yu praised the designer of this ancient tomb from the bottom of his heart.

Gou Jia said worriedly: "My lord, I don't think this tomb is very safe. Those gnats have no food, and they will definitely come here if they are hungry. They want to break this stone cabinet and release transparent moths..."

"Well, I know, let's think of other ways." Chen Yu interrupted Gou Jia.

They both felt that there was more than one tomb like this, and there was more than one sarcophagus like this, all of which were to provide food for the chelicer.

Once the chelicer beasts finished eating the transparent micromoths released, they would go crazy with hunger, looking for such a tomb to break the sarcophagus, releasing a large number of transparent micromoths, and then they would have a new source of food.

In order for the gnats to guard the tombs from generation to generation, the designer will definitely design many such tombs to store a large number of eggs of transparent micromoths, so that the gnaws have a steady stream of food.

Unable to think of a way to defend against the attack of the chelicer's voice, Chen Yu was very anxious. Even if they would not find this tomb in a short time, he and Gou Jia could not last for a few days without water and food, and would eventually be trapped to death in the tomb. In this tomb.

"Are you hungry?" Chen Yu suddenly asked Gou Jia.

Gou Jia stared at Chen Yu suspiciously, then shook her head slightly and said, "I'm not very hungry."

The two of them had only been in this ancient tomb for a few hours at most, and they were not very hungry yet.

"Then are you sleepy?" Chen Yu asked again.

Gou Jia shook her head slightly again, looked at Chen Yu full of doubts, and asked, "What do you want to say, son?"

Chen Yu went to the spot, waved at Gou Jia and said, "I'm hungry and sleepy, come here and let my son sleep with his arms around me, maybe I wake up and we can go out."

Gou Jia frowned slightly and didn't understand what Chen Yu meant, but she still obediently lay down in his arms.

"If the two of us can't get out and are trapped to death here, what unfulfilled wish do you have?" Chen Yu asked Gou Jia with his arms tightly, a little sadly.

"No, my son, it's not a pity to die, but you must go out alive to expose the conspiracy of Jiangnan Kingdom and prevent the two countries from going to war." Gou Jia said excitedly.

"It's quite righteous, I mean what if." Chen Yu smiled and hugged Gou Jia tighter.

"I hope the world will be peaceful and the common people can live and work in peace and contentment." Gou Jia said calmly.
