Chapter 1794 Risk
There are many strange things in this world. The more you know, the more cautious you will be.

Whether it is Zhang Xuezhou, Hong Ku, or Yao Yuanguang and others, they are not at the top level, but just members of a certain class.

This hidden situation is obviously beneficial to the survival of the Xiangmen monks.

Hong Ku's family was almost destroyed after he was targeted, and the other party's early calculations also made Zhang Xuezhou and others miserable.

If Zhang Xuezhou ignored the lessons of Hong Ku's experience because he felt that he was stronger, then he would be ashamed of all the experiences he had gone through over the years.

In dealing with the matter of Huang Daoxian, Zhang Xuezhou did not continue to investigate openly, but did something when the time came, waiting for the other party to jump out, or letting Zuo Teng, Zhou Yueyan and others deal with him openly.

When facing an opponent whose true strength is difficult to know, tentative approach is obviously the best option.

The other party has been dormant for hundreds of years, so a few months or years won’t make a difference.

The longer the time goes, the more the other party will reveal.

For example, at this moment, Zhang Xuezhou even feels that he has raided the opponent's lair.

However, Zhang Xuezhou was not sure whether Huang Daoxian had sensed anything and thus returned here.

He watched Zuo Teng carrying the hyena away, then looked at the live broadcast on the video monitor.

Zuo Teng held a flashlight to illuminate the canyon area, also illuminating the red ground.

This is a piece of land dyed red by the juice of madder, and mixed with countless rotten weeds and branches on the ground.

Bathed in the stench of the corpse flower, the vegetation in the area fell to the ground and rotted in the soil as if it had been sprayed with pesticides.

"The gas emitted by that flower is extremely toxic. Fortunately, this is deep in the mountains and it is difficult for it to spread to residential areas," Wang Haoran said solemnly.

"It's more than just poison!"

Zhang Xuezhou replied.

This creature is not only good at using poison gas, the chip on its pistil also has the ability to move in space guided by light, and can also confuse and tempt people.

If the corpse flower belongs to Huang Daoxian's real body, the other party also possesses extremely strong spiritual power.

In addition, according to historical records, Huang Daoxian also has the ability to call the wind and rain.

"If it enters the human area, will the damage caused be worse than the situation in the Thousand Islands Alliance?" Wang Haoran asked.

"Its body does not have the ability to move quickly," Zhang Xuezhou said, "and it will not appear in human living areas!"

"Then how did it communicate with the emperor at that time? Did it seduce him through illusions?" Wang Haoran said puzzledly: "It is impossible for Emperor Luo Yan and others to come to such deep mountains and wild ridges when they were on a southern tour!"

"Perhaps its spiritual power is enough to condense a body, or perhaps it borrowed a human body through its extremely powerful spiritual power, or perhaps it taught some students to work for it!"

Zhang Xuezhou himself can condense a yang soul incarnation under the right conditions. He thought of Baer Bo and Baer Po mentioned by Zuo Teng, and felt that each possibility had a high probability.

The simplest way is to temporarily borrow a human body, just like Yao and others forcibly occupied Gongsun Hong's body.

“It’s hard to understand,” Wang Haoran said, “I feel like these statements are all magical!”

"Me too!"

Zhang Xuezhou nodded. He combined the knowledge of both worlds to make his guess, while Wang Haoran lacked knowledge.

Wang Haoran, who is close to Zhang Xuezhou, expressed it this way. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to get others to agree with him.

Zhang Xuezhou did not force an explanation.

"Hey, can you hear me?"

When the voice from the live broadcast room came, Zhang Xuezhou and Wang Haoran quickly shifted their attention to the area of ​​Zuo Teng Lighting.

Continuing forward, Zuo Teng also began to step into the area where the corpse flowers were located.

The burning black ashes mixed with the red soil, making the ground a mess, and at the location of the corpse flower, a half-person-high pit was left there.

Zuo Teng pointed the camera at the pit and poked it with a stick. The hyena in the cage made a series of non-stop "clucking" sounds. "There is nothing here. Everything is burned. There is a pit on the ground." Zuo Teng said, "Should I come back now or should you come over?"

"Take clearer pictures. If we can see clearly, we won't come over!"

Zhang Xuezhou typed a line of words in the live broadcast room, indicating that there was nothing wrong with Zuo Teng’s request.

If everything was burned down, it would indeed be a good thing, as it would put an end to everyone's trip to the tiankeng.

But Zhang Xuezhou also felt that things shouldn't be like this.

If the corpse flower is the real body of Huang Daoxian, it will definitely be able to sense when its real body is burned, and there is a high probability that it will return here.

If the corpse flower was burned completely, it might also happen that Zhang Xuezhou encountered the other 30% probability that he had guessed at the time, that is, what he lost was just a special plant like the purple gladiolus, and the real Zodiac Immortal was not found by him.

"If this is not Huang Daoxian, but just a special plant cultivated by Huang Daoxian..."

Thinking of the power of the corpse flower and the densely packed chips on its stamens, even Zhang Xuezhou, who was knowledgeable, felt a headache. He felt that he would be finished if he was caught by such an opponent once.

He looked closely at the pit photographed by Zuo Teng, and then checked the black ash and other objects in the pit.

“Zuo Teng, be careful. The hyena’s frightened sounds are much more coherent than before. It’s very likely that it has reached the source of its fear!”

Wang Haoran also typed a line of words in the live broadcast room.

Zhang Xuezhou's calligraphy made Zuo Teng feel that his investigation as a vanguard had come to an end.

Wang Haoran's words made Zuo Teng suddenly alert.

He looked at the half-man-high pit and didn't dare to poke it with the stick anymore.

"You said I don't have to compensate the dog!"

Zuo Teng recited a sentence.

He glanced at the hyena in the cage.

He has the lowest position among the four and needs to do the work of a vanguard.

But in their group, Zuo Teng can still bully the two strange beasts.

He opened the alloy cage and reached out to grab the hyena out.

Holding it in his hand, Zuo Teng felt that the hyena's body was limp, as if it had been frightened out of its wits. It even had difficulty standing up, and it did not have the powerful demeanor of a strange beast at all.

"Hyenas are also dogs. Dogs will detect risks for their masters. Go dig the pit and check the situation!"

Zuo Teng shouted and saw that the hyena was still lying on the ground and making a "cluck, cluck" sound. He kicked the hyena into the pit where the roots of the corpse flower were.

"Yeah~"

With a long howl, the hyena let out an extremely long roar and its body rolled in the pit.

After the dog's claws scratched a few times and found a way out of the pit, the hyena jumped several times and ran out madly. It flashed in the jungle several times and then disappeared, leaving behind only a series of "clucking" sounds that became increasingly difficult to hear as it went farther and farther away.

"Is this strange beast you tamed disobedient? It has been barking for so long, waiting for us to open the cage and let it escape?"

Zuo Teng complained.

He looked at the bottom of the pit. The yellow soil and black ash made it difficult for him to identify what was going on, but the dogs had not died even if they were thrown in and dug around. He was not worried about poking at anything that spewed out foul and poisonous gases when he dug with a stick.

After some poking and digging, Zuo Teng actually dug out something from the bottom of the pit.

This is a spherical object about the size of a longan.

After peeling off some of the black and gray on top, a transparent sphere came into view.

"This material seems to be that spring water...Mom?"

Just when Zuo Teng was thinking that this spherical object seemed very similar to the fragments in the spring water, he felt his eyes blurred, and then he saw his mother's head buried in the pit with her eyes open.
