Chapter 2444 Digging the Ground


    When Xu Huo went out from Grandma Yi, he happened to meet the player who was bringing the villagers back. They probably wanted to see what was going on with the little girl, but they didn''t expect to run into him. They were wary of the little girl''s behavior. Interest is greater.


    "I thought you were missing." Chicai and Yang Tian also came with the painting girl, and the former looked relieved.


    Looking at the players going to Granny Yi''s yard, the two of them were also curious about what the little girl had gone through. However, they had separate festivals with several other players and it was not easy to get together at this time. They planned to wait until they left before talking, so they Ask Xu Huo first.


    "It''s just a kid who misses his friends." Xu Huo said calmly, "Whatever you want to ask, you can ask it yourself later."


    As he spoke, he took the painting girl with him to visit Toto''s parents.


    Toto''s parents looked older than their actual age. They still didn''t know why Granny Yi''s granddaughter ran out suddenly. They just saw so many players and didn''t dare to come over for the time being.


    They were still scared when Xu Huo came to the door, but when he said that he wanted to help the little girl pay homage to Tuotuo, the couple had tears in their eyes. One was because they missed their daughter who lost two lives, and the other was because they felt guilty about treating the little girl. The girl''s deception leads to her almost getting lost in the forest.


    "Is it really Toto who is calling her?" The woman couldn''t help but ask, "Why didn''t Toto come and call us?"


    "Stop talking!" the man yelled, and then drew a simple route map. This foggy forest can only give a general direction. To really identify the area, it is best to rely on the grass plants in the forest. Some plants have They only grow in a certain area or occupy a special range.


    After Xu Huo got it, he left the couple''s home and went to find Totuo''s grave.


    People in the village somewhat believe in returning to nature, so most of their graves are very simple. They have encountered them before when they were looking for little girls. Some have turned into small earthen bags and were completely covered with plants. Some just put a few stones on them, and some are simply placed in the nests of some small animals.


    Toto''s grave is at the foot of a tree. There are several stones on it. There are a few small words on the stones, which say Toto and two other names, which should be her husband and children.


    Xu Huo placed the two candies entrusted by the little girl in the grass next to him, and carefully noted the main plants growing around him. Most of them can be found with clear information under the dimension, and some have unclear names. I can roughly tell where they belong, but there are no vines like Granny Yi mentioned.


    Toto got married and moved to Xiamu Village. The two villages are not too close together, but if the "hidden friend" is some kind of mutated plant, which has appeared in several villages, there should be no situation where the territory cannot be covered. If there is a corpse buried underground, it is very likely to directly become its nourishment. After all, it deceives people in order to hunt.


    After confirming the plants on the ground, Xu Huo chose a place a little far away from the tomb and struck the ground with a black knife a few times horizontally and vertically.


    Many plants are indeed alive. Some of the branches and leaves on the ground have curled up or withered directly after being damaged. There are also rustling sounds underground. Listening to the movement, it seems that the ground is no longer solid.


    But this is not surprising. There are large trees here, and many plants with huge roots are hidden underground. Even the trees themselves are like this. Their roots appear to be buried underground, but in fact they are just covered by a layer of grass growing up. It''s just covered, so there''s probably a cavity of several meters beneath the huge undulations in many places.


    Xu Huo dug out several pieces of mud and found a lot of cut roots, but most of them were innocuous plants. The only strange thing was that the color of their sap was more variable, unlike the green ones on the ground. Lord.


    A head-sized thing covered in wet mud rolled to his feet.


    The painting girl found several of them from the nearby potholes and scratched one to see. Inside was an unusually viscous pink liquid, but it had a strong fruity fragrance. "Can you eat this?" she asked enthusiastically.


    "Normally speaking, if it is not poisonous, it must be edible." Xu Huo said.


    This is indeed the case. Sometimes human corpses are nothing like animal corpses. They are just buried underground and degraded.


    "Are you lying to me?" The painting girl looked at him suspiciously.


    "I''ve never seen anyone in the village eat this. It''s best not to eat it." Xu Huo pushed the ball back into the pit.


    The painting girl was still very willing to take one back and urged him to find what it was.


    Xu Huo checked the information after taking the photo. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the seed of a carnivorous plant. The seeds looked very big, but the flowers of the adult plant were only that big. It specializes in hunting some small animals. It also has multiple mutant varieties. The most ferocious ones are rats and rabbits.


    Of course, there are no large mutated animals in this forest. Firstly, because some plants emit smells that animals don’t like, and secondly, because there are a lot of carnivorous plants. Some hunt small animals, and naturally there are also large ones. But in the village Rarely seen nearby.


    After hearing this, the painting girl lost interest and put all the seeds back and buried them with soil, "Let them grow longer and eat more mice and cockroaches."


    Some scavengers that have strong reproductive capabilities and like to live in human environments are natural enemies of those who like housework.


    When they filled the hole and were about to leave, someone else came over.


    The four players who were chasing Yang Tian and Chasai before came together. They probably came here after knowing about Toto and asking about Toto''s grave.


    "What are you looking for?" The player with missing ears asked immediately as he glanced at the ground.


    Xu Huo pointed to the rhizome turned up on the ground, "Can''t you see it?"


    Obviously this was not the answer he wanted. After forming an alliance with many people, the player with missing ears became more confident than before. He sneered, "You also said you are not a dungeon player!"


    Xu Huo''s face showed just the right amount of impatience, "I''ve said it many times, and I don''t want to repeat it again. If you want to find trouble, I will stay with you until the end, so there is no need to argue."


    He was about to leave, but the player with missing ears felt that he was eager to leave because he got some clues, so he stepped in front of him, picked up the props in his hand, and said: "You can''t be alone in the dungeon with the clues." Exclusive, if you want to eat alone, you have to think about your abilities!”


    Paopao Bean and Master Yin Yang, as well as Yang Tian and Chicai were actually nearby, but only Chicai jumped out among them and said in a cold voice: "I advise you not to kill people casually. The copy has clear requirements. Hiding A rising friend only needs one friend every day!”
