Chapter 648: Strange Plants

We fell from a water hole that was hundreds or thousands of meters long and came to a pool of water. By the side of the pool, we actually saw a stone tablet with the words "Gate of Hell".

And behind the stone tablet is a gray-black stone door.

The stone door was covered with purple moss.

The purple-black mosses are very dark, but inexplicably give people a charming feeling, as if they are a bit more charming than flowers, as if they are stained with blood.

After careful examination, we realized that this was not because we felt wrong, but because it was true.

Because we noticed that the insects that came from the springs falling from high altitude were eaten by some strange little fish, and the insects seemed to contain some toxins. The fish that ate the insects soon bleed all over their bodies and died of blood.

And their flesh and blood were soaked in the pond water, nourishing the roots of the moss to a very thick level.

Yes, this moss is weird and more like a vine. Although it is as furry as moss, its roots are spreading and winding all the way into the water.

The fish seemed to know that they would die, but they continued to swallow the insects, as if they were just to nourish the vine moss, which was indescribable.

Coupled with the four big words "Gate of Hell" on the stone tablet, it actually gives people a creepy feeling.

"What should we do? Do we need to push open this door?"

Yang Hui was a little scared and asked in a low voice.

"Of course we have to go in. We are here, isn't it just for this?"

The fire monkey frowned and said seriously.

I nodded, very supportive of the Fire Monkey's decision. The Gate of Hell is indeed very strange and a bit scary, but I went in the underground world last time? That's it.

I can only say that when we came last time, we did not take the right path, but relying on the power of modern technology, we forcibly penetrated some rock walls and entered.

And this time, we probably found the real path, the road to hell.

Perhaps, if you walk from here, you will find some different discoveries, and maybe we can find more secrets.

Of course, I'm afraid the next experience will be much more strange than the last time.

We immediately tried to push the stone door.

Because of the strangeness of the moss, we also specially tested it and confirmed that there was no toxin before we started.

But unfortunately, we found that because of the strange moss, the stone door became very slippery and it was difficult to exert force at all.

"I can only clean up these things."

We discussed it and decided to use a flamethrower to burn this thing.

boom!

As we exerted our strength, circles of bright flame halos burst out from the stone gate. The mosses were easy to burn, and in a short while, the underground cave looked like daytime.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened to us.

As the moss burned, there was an ear-sourcing howling howling sounded behind us!

We quickly turned our heads, but we saw struggling and twisted faces floating in the pool. The faces of those people grew up and screamed with shrill screams.

As they screamed, the strange fish in the water immediately abandoned the insects falling from the sky, and jumped out of the water like they were desperate and bit us.

These strange fish have round teeth with their mouths, like chrysanthemums, very disgusting and sharp!

These strange fish are very numerous, and in a blink of an eye, they attack us like raindrops.

However, at this moment, we were holding a flamethrower in our hands. Seeing these strange fish rushing towards us, our reaction was extremely quick and we quickly pointed the gun at them.

The powerful firepower directly formed a fire wall.

Even if those fish are fierce, they are difficult to break through this wall of fire. In a short while, they all fell to the ground.

At this time, Yang Hui was very brave again, so she took the initiative to pick up the body of a fish and looked at it again and again.

This is also a research madman.

Looking at her serious look, Wang Jin's shadow appeared in my mind for no reason, and I felt a little sad.

Wang Jin, like her, also saw these things, as if she was desperate, but unfortunately she stayed in the magma underground forever...

"These fish are very strange in their actions, as if they are controlled by this bryophyte..."

Yang Hui said, using a knife to pick the internal organs of the dead fish. After a while, a small insect was picked out from the little fish's head. The insect showed an irregular flat shape, a bit like an enlarged cell, or paramecium.

"It is a parasite, a kind of fungal parasite, a fungal parasite, and a fungal parasite, which is not uncommon, but it is actually like a bug, but it is really incredible!"

The fire monkey also said in surprise.

Although this guy is the agent leader, he obviously has some research on biology.

This kind of fish eats monster insects to poison themselves to nourish bryophytes. It is strange and goes against common sense. Sure enough, parasites are causing trouble.

At this moment, the howling human faces appearing in the water, in fact, when we look closely, they are not human faces at all, but vines of plants, formed by tangled together.

It just looks like a human face, but it doesn't look closely.

"This plant looks really disgusting, let's burn it!"

I couldn't help but say.

But Yang Hui and the others glared at me, thinking that I was really unreasonable, "This is clearly a valuable research material, this rare creature is a treasure of nature."

They had scraped a lot of moss before and kept it in sealed Petri dishes.

Now it is obvious that I am also interested in the vines under the water.

However, the vines were really weird, and we didn't dare to go into the water to pick them at this time.

In fact, parasitic plants are very common among plants. About one-tenth of them do not contain chlorophyll. They do not only synergize, but also parasitize other plants, using other plants as nutrients. Such plants like dodder, mulberry parasites, etc. are all such plants. They are parasites in the plant world.

But plant parasites like those in front of us, which use animals as nutrients are rare.

Look at the appearance of this vine between animals and plants, which is similar to human-eating flowers, except that human-eating flowers are a combination of predators and plants, while this vine is a combination of parasites and plants.

Speaking of plant parasites, a famous character in an animation came to my mind inexplicably.

Wonderful frog seeds.

Isn’t this guy just a frog parasitized by seeds?

However, what we never imagined is that this kind of fantasy creature actually found something similar in reality.

However, the strange vine in front of us is not as cute as the wonderful frog seed, but full of strangeness!
