Real Cthulhu Running Game - #2300 - Chapter 2241: Cordyceps sinensis

Chapter 2241 Cordyceps Sinensis

As long as they form a circle, there are players who can interrupt the monster’s fear skills.

 Unless this thing has more than one pair of eyes.

Liu Xing thought for a while and said to Yang De: “Yang De, go over and call Miao Fei right now, tell him the situation here, and ask him to bring a few more people to suppress the formation!”

Yang De nodded, immediately turned around and ran back to the convoy.

Although Liu Xing felt that the monster under the reeds should only have one move, “Eye of Fear”, for the sake of safety, he still had to let Miao Feilai be responsible for holding the line. As long as he and his party could no longer control the monster, or the monster was attacking someone. If it poses a threat to life, then Miao Fei must deal with this monster.

I don’t know if this monster can be used as medicine?

According to Lao He and the others, this monster should be a plant that has begun to take on a human form, just like the mandrake in Western legends, and mandrake is also a good medicinal material, so the monster under the reeds is Can monsters also be used as medicine?

But this is not important. What is important is that there is at least one monster under such a small patch of reeds. How many of the same or even more powerful monsters must be in such a large patch of reeds near Reed Town? !

 Thinking of this, Liu Xing began to worry about Schiller and others.

 At this moment, Yang De came back with Miao Fei.

“So fast?”

Liu Xing looked at Yang De and Miao Fei in surprise, while Miao Fei replied with a smile: “I happened to have something to come over to discuss with you, Lieutenant Liu, but I met Yang De on the way.”

“Oh, Brother Miao, what do you want to see me for?” Liu Xing continued to ask.

“That’s right, we met a few more passers-by, and they also wanted to join Sweetwater Town.”

Miao Fei said seriously: “These passers-by claim to live in Yueshan City. They were helping one of their relatives do business in Liangcheng. After hearing the gossip that you and I know two days ago, we decided to Go home to avoid the limelight. After all, they are basically the eldest sons of the family; but Liu Xiaowei, you should also know that this Yueshan City is actually a small town, and it is also the kind of completely undefended town. After all, this town has to be visited every year. When there is a moon night celebration, people in the town have not opened for three years, and they have been open for three years, so the situation is somewhat similar to Luwei Town.”

“So the reason why these people are eager to go back is that they want to take their families to find a remote place to live, and then return to Yueshan City after everything has settled. After all, Yueshan City is on the road leading to Liang City. On the road, I guarantee that no one will take advantage of Yueshan City! Liu Xiaowei, you may not know something. The main reason why there are so many Yueshan cities in the world is that there is a piece of Yueshan City in each Yueshan City. It is the gem of the moon fragment, so the moon **** is not so much attracted by the moon night celebration, it is better to say that the moon **** is summoned by the moon fragment, and then he rewards it casually after watching a program that satisfies him. A few actors.”

“Oh? Then in this Yueshan City, ordinary people are innocent. Is it a crime to have a jade?” Yang De couldn’t help but say.

 “That’s right, it’s a crime for a common man to have a jade in his possession even though he’s not guilty!”

Miao Fei nodded and said: “Normally, these Yueshan City don’t have to worry about their moon fragments being snatched away by others, because everyone knows that there are only a few moon fragments in the world, so no matter how you take them away It is difficult to sell such a moon fragment in the end. After all, unless the buyer simply wants to collect such a moon fragment, he will definitely show off and let others know that he got the missing moon fragment! After all, you If you want to use this moon fragment to summon the Moon God, you must hold a moon night celebration with the required number of people at the specified time. Moreover, when the Moon God blesses you, there will be a clear burst of moonlight falling from the sky, which can be seen within a hundred miles. It’s crystal clear.”

“So under normal circumstances, all Yueshan City does not need to worry about problems with their moon fragments. Even if there is a problem, someone will come to help you retrieve the moon fragments, and this person is the new Dragon Emperor, because The new Dragon Emperor doesn’t want to cause chaos in the world because of these few moon fragments. After all, that city doesn’t want to be the venue for the moon night celebration? So the locations of some Yueshan City are also specially arranged by the new Dragon Emperor to ensure that each region Having a Moon Mountain City of their own allows most people to participate in the Moon Night Celebration.”

Hearing what Miao Fei said, Liu Xing found this paragraph from the memory of “Liu Peng”, that is, in the first few years after “Liu Peng” got leprosy, Liu Nan would take him to the nearby Yueshan City Participating in the moon night celebration, hoping to get the blessing of the moon **** to restore “Liu Peng” to his original appearance. Unfortunately, the final result was naturally nothing, and this also made “Liu Peng” full of bad memories of Yueshan City, such as The last time was because there were too many people participating in the moon night celebration, so “Liu Peng”‘s mask was accidentally knocked off by passers-by. Then everyone around him pointed at “Liu Peng” with a look on his face. With an expression of ridicule, contempt, or fear.

As we all know, when a person suffers huge psychological pressure or mental shock in a short period of time, the person may trigger the brain’s self-protection mechanism, thereby forgetting the memory of this period and preventing the person concerned from constantly recalling it. This memory was hurt again and again.

 So at the beginning, Liu Xingcai didn’t know the existence of Yueshan City and the Moon Night Celebration.

Therefore, at this time, Liu Xing suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, when he participates in tomorrow’s moon night celebration, if he really gets the blessing of the moon god, will the result of the blessing be his own? Has the appearance returned to normal?

This doesn’t seem to be the blessing I want, right?

“All in all, I think there should be no problem with these passers-by. Anyway, we will arrive at Yueshan City tomorrow, and we will be able to confirm whether they are lying by then! And if they are not lying, then following Captain Liu to Tianshui Town is considered It makes sense, because they really need to take their family to find a suitable place to stay for a while; and this place should be relatively remote, but it still has to have the necessary houses, and it is best to have some reliable ones. Neighbors, it’s safer for everyone to live together, so Sweetwater fits their idea perfectly.”

Miao Fei looked at Liu Xing and said with a smile: “That’s why I came to see Liu Xiaowei now. After all, Liu Xiaowei is the one who talks about this, so I don’t dare to make decisions for you, Liu Xiaowei. “

Liu Xing also smiled, nodded and said: “In that case, let these people follow us first. If it is confirmed tomorrow that they are not lying, and their family members are willing to go to Tianshui Town with them, then It’s not too late for me to promise them; so Yang De, please go there again and keep these people in the convoy, so that we can repair the bridge faster!”

Yang De nodded, turned around and left again.

Then, Liu Xing put on a serious expression, “Brother Miao, you should have heard from Yang De just now why I asked you to come over to help, right? I didn’t expect that there would be an unheard-of creature under the reeds. Monster! So we suspect this is a brand new monster!”

Miao Fei’s expression also became serious, and he nodded and said: “Yes, I have never heard of this type of monster, so we need to determine what kind of monster it is, and what kind of monster it is in this reed swamp. There aren’t more of its kind! If there are, that’s not good news. After all, we all know the story of Reed Town, and these monsters must be related to Reed Town back then!”

At this moment, Lao He suddenly raised his hand and said: “Well, I suddenly thought of something, that is, the size of this monster may not be much different from a big radish, but its head has grown. There are a lot of roots, and these roots eventually turned into the reeds we see, so its combat effectiveness should not be high, but we have to be prepared for its mental attacks.”    That’s it?

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows because at first he thought the monster was about the same size as a husky, but he didn’t expect it to be so big. It seemed like it was indeed a plant.

It’s no wonder that Lao He and the two were able to escape, because the smaller the thing is, the smaller its eyes are, so it may be easier to avoid its gaze than imagined.

Then don’t worry too much.

Since then, Liu Xing arranged for several players to start pulling out carrots directly, while Miao Fei also showed off his weapons and stood ready to turn the monster from one into a pile.

 Soon, this monster was uprooted!

 A big green radish?

This was Liu Xing’s first impression of this monster. Because it was facing away from Liu Xing, Liu Xing thought it was just a big green radish, but with more developed roots and reeds on its head. It also seems a bit abrupt, making people feel that the upper and lower parts of this monster can be described as distinct.

But before Liu Xing could speak, a system prompt appeared in his mind, “Congratulations to the player for discovering an unknown creature in this martial arts module. He has obtained the achievement – Unknown Creature Discoverer! Players can obtain more by studying this creature. achievement points.”

 Then, there is no more.

 Is this the legendary unknown creature? I’m afraid it’s not a scrap left by the designer of this martial arts module, right?

Liu Xing remembers that there was a game that was due to insufficient construction time, so some monsters that were originally abandoned cases were inserted into the game. Therefore, these monsters from abandoned cases had different painting styles from those that had already been designed, and their values ​​​​were also designed. Very unreasonable.

“What is this stuff?”

Miao Fei couldn’t help complaining: “It looks too weird. It doesn’t look like an animal or a plant. It has some similarities with people like us, so…”

Before Miao Fei finished speaking, Qing Sheng’s voice came from not far away, “Is this the legendary Cordyceps Sinensis?”

Liu Xing looked back and saw Qing Sheng walking over in a hurry, with Yang De following behind him.

 Obviously, Qing Sheng should have learned about the situation here from Yang De, so he came over to join in the fun.

 “This is really Cordyceps sinensis!”

Qing Sheng hid directly in front of the monster and said: “I remember my master once told me that in addition to Warcraft, there is a very strange creature called Cordyceps sinensis in this world. To put it simply, this creature has two Completely different forms – winter insect form and summer grass form! Yes, this creature is very afraid of heat, so it will transform into some kind of plant in summer, either burying itself underground, or like now It hides itself in the water like this, so it can cool down as much as possible, so now it will remain motionless under the sun, lying here honestly and pretending to be dead.”

“After winter, this creature will shed the part of it that is a plant, and then turn into a bug and start moving around freely. So if we don’t find it today, then by this time next year, it won’t know where to go. Where is it! Therefore, the legendary ginseng essence in the north is very likely to be the winter worm state of this creature. After all, before it completely turns into the winter worm state, it looks like a thousand-year-old ginseng! So it also appeared. There are legends about ginseng essence running around, but I don’t rule out the possibility of real ginseng essence, because I didn’t believe there was such a cordyceps before.”

Hearing Qing Sheng say that the monster was temporarily dormant, Liu Xing boldly came to the front of the monster, and then discovered that it was not so much a humanoid as an insectoid, because its eyes were similar to The fly’s compound eyes and mouth are somewhat similar to those of a locust. As for its hands and feet, they are connected to the body, but does it look more like a cocoon?

Before Liu Xing could ask, Qing Sheng continued: “Yes, Xia Cao at this time is actually a cocoon with only its mouth and eyes exposed, so that it can observe the surrounding situation and perform operations when necessary. It hunts prey, and the reeds growing out of its head should be ordinary reeds, but these reeds have been connected to the body of the summer grass, providing the most basic nutrients for the body.”

“So if I cut it like this now, can this summer grass directly turn into a winter insect?” Miao Fei said curiously.

“Theoretically, it’s possible, but this winter insect is very afraid of heat, so this knife may kill it.”

Qing Sheng touched his chin and said: “But, my master has only told me so much, so I am not sure whether this is the Cordyceps sinensis my master said, and what capabilities or functions this Cordyceps sinensis has. , so how to deal with this thing depends on what you want to do.”

 “Well, what should we do?”

Liu Xing looked at Cordyceps sinensis with a confused look on his face, not knowing how to deal with it.
