Chapter 20 Chapter Twenty

The man took off the cloth covering his face, and I almost couldn't lift my chest. How could his face be exactly the same as Bauer's?This person is alive and cannot be a ghost. Although the light here is very weak and everything looks hazy, I can be sure that the person in front of me must be a person and not a ghost.Because the skin of the person in front of him is rosy, and there are rays of light shooting out of his eyes, which are completely the characteristics of a living person.The problem is that he's exactly the same as Bauer, but Bauer is dead, and we've all seen it with our own eyes.

"Don't be surprised, I do look exactly like my twin brother Bauer." The man's expression was very complicated, and he didn't know whether he was sad or smiling. "You said that Bauer is your brother, so... are you here to avenge your brother?" Chen Jing's hand was already holding the gun tightly. "I know his death has nothing to do with you, it was the swallowtail butterfly that killed him!" The man's solemn expression dissipated, he was silent for a while, and said, "I'm different from him, I don't want to If you want that, don't worry!"

"Since you know that the Swallowtail killed Bauer, why did you stop us from burning those butterflies just now? Isn't Swallowtail burned to avenge Bauer?" I still couldn't believe it. This man, after all, that Bauer is not a good person, he deliberately deceived us from the beginning, maybe his younger brother is even worse! "Ask this lady. She is from the Red Cliff Clan. She should know that to find that thing, you have to use a long-winged swallowtail butterfly to open it!" The man said to Chen Jing with a smile. "What is your origin, and why do you know it so clearly?" Chen Jing already had a surprised expression on her face.

"You can call me Nick, but don't ask these silly questions now, let's take a look at this rare scene." After Nick finished speaking, he took out a fluorescent stick from his pocket, and then Throw the light stick to the bottom. Now we are all in the same boat, if there is a dispute here, I am afraid that we will die together.We stretched our heads out and looked down. The fluorescent stick was very bright, and we could see everything clearly at once.If we stay in the dark for a few more days, our eyes will probably be so degenerated that we can't see anymore. Now we are not used to looking at the light.

The cocoon hanging below cracked a long hole, and the long-winged swallowtail butterfly came out of it. I couldn't help covering my face even tighter, and I didn't even dare to breathe too much, for fear of absorbing the toxin. into the body.These butterflies were flying around below, but they didn't come up, and none of them flew out of the tree hole.They seem to be flying around that huge flower. These butterflies probably want to pick the nectar of that flower, but this flower doesn't look like there is nectar in it. I suddenly remembered something, and I asked anxiously: "Nick, where did you come in from? Isn't the exit blocked by a boulder? Is there another exit?"

"Shh, don't make any noise, that thing is about to come out!" Nick made a face at me after he finished speaking. I really wanted to know what that thing looked like, and it was worth so many people to grab it, even the dead Uncle Zou wanted it.This group of long-winged swallowtails has slowly come out of the cocoon, they are arranged together in an orderly manner, forming a vortex, and the center of the vortex is the strange big flower.The big flower trembled again, and the flying speed of the long-winged swallowtail butterfly became faster and faster, which made me dizzy. "This is Mie Quen Hua!" Chen Jing was watching all this quietly, but suddenly cried out in surprise.

"What is Mie Que Hua, you mean this strange big flower is called Mie Que Hua?" I asked Chen Jing curiously, but Xin Hong still looked down without saying a word. "The Mie Quenhua has grown in today's Guizhou since ancient times, which is where the Hongya people lived for generations. However, because the Hongya people migrated to Africa, the Mie Quehua has become extinct." Chen said. Jing's eyes stared at Mie Querhua without moving. "Why are there so many things related to the Hongya clan here? The relationship between Xu Fu and your Hongya clan is not ordinary." I said to Chen Jing in a somewhat mocking tone.

The long-winged swallowtail butterfly was still spinning and flying, and the Mie Que Hua was slowly blooming, with thick and large petals unfolding one by one.The outer petals are still blue-red, but when the petals of the extinction flower continue to bloom, the petals get darker as they go inside, as if the inside of the flower has rotted.The long-winged swallowtails seemed to be attracted by the smell of the extinguishing flowers, they rotated at an accelerated speed, and the images of the long-winged swallowtails had already melted together. It is indeed an anecdote that the butterflies can have such a speed.

We stood on the top, some distance away from the Mie Quen Hua, originally thought that the Mie Quen Hua had no smell, but who would have thought that after the Mie Quen Hua was in full bloom, a smell that only comes from rotting animal corpses would rise from below, smoky We stepped back one after another.When we got used to the smell for a while, we all stretched out our heads to see what happened. The stamens of the extinct flower are red, but its petals are black. This combination is very rare in nature.The creatures of the Hongya tribe are all red, so does Yinlihong also come from the Hongya tribe?However, I remember Chen Jing once told me that Yinlihong is only found in a nation that has disappeared.Chen Jing said that Mie Que Hua had already grown in Guizhou in ancient times, so the Hongya people also have a history that can be traced back to ancient times. Is there any relationship between their Hongya people and this vanished nation?But Chen Jing has always been reluctant to talk about this matter with us too much. Since Yinlihong exists in the Tianshan Temple, its origin must let us know the story behind the temple.

"There are bones inside, like human bones!" Xinhong said suddenly, pulling me out of my thoughts. "There are really bones, how could these people be in the Mie Quen Hua?" I looked at those human bones and said. "The Mie Quen Hua is actually a cannibal flower, which specializes in eating people or animals!" Chen Jing said. "The piranha? The extinction flower is a piranha, it's impossible?" I was taken aback. Although there have been various legends about piranhas all over the world, there has never been any actual evidence to prove that there is such a thing as piranhas.I remember when I was still in college, there was a modern history of the world that said that the earliest reports of man-eating plants were some explorers from the second half of the 19th century.Among them was a German explorer named Carl Leach. After returning from an expedition, he said: "I saw a tree that could eat people on the island of Madagascar in Africa. The local residents regarded it as a sacred tree." There was once an aboriginal woman who was driven to climb a sacred tree because she violated the commandments of the tribe. As a result, 8 leaves with hard thorns wrapped her tightly. When the leaves reopened a few days later, only A pile of white bones." Since then, rumors about man-eating plants have spread more and more, and at the same time there have been more reports about man-eating plants.However, no one has been able to produce direct evidence, such as photographs or specimens, since then until now.

"I didn't expect there to be piranhas here, but there has never been any direct evidence in the world to prove that there are indeed piranhas!" I exclaimed, if I can take a petal back as a specimen, it will definitely be famous all over the world. "Are these human bones from your Hongya tribe who came here before?" Xinhong was not as surprised as I was, but asked Chen Jing more calmly. "Probably people from our clan, they never went back, so they all died in this flower!" Chen Jing had the urge to cry. The long-winged swallowtail butterfly spun around the Mie Quen Hua at high speed. The flower was already in full bloom, and the rancid smell rushed up one after another.Although we all covered our mouths and noses, the disgusting taste still got into our noses.When the flower was in full bloom, the group of butterflies actually started to bump into the pistil of the Mie Quen Hua, crashing into it one after another.At this time, the extinction flower began to slowly close its petals, but the remaining group of long-winged swallowtails were still revolving around the extinction flower, as if they just wanted to die in the extinction flower. "This group of long-winged swallowtails is so strange, why do they keep flying around Mie Que Hua?" I was very puzzled when I saw this scene. "Do you think these butterflies are raised casually in the temple?" Nick spoke at this time, his Chinese was as fluent as Bauer's, "To get that kind of thing, you need to rely on these long-winged swallowtail butterflies." "You mean..." Xinhong's tone was a little surprised and a little like thinking of something. "This lady should have thought of something, don't you guys understand the usefulness of these long-winged swallowtails?" Nick said with a smile, unable to tell whether he was smiling or genuinely smiling. "Aren't these butterflies used to get rid of people who break into the temple?" I asked puzzled. "The long-winged swallowtail butterfly can kill the flowers but the flowers bloom. What does this mean?" Nick asked me with a smile. I remembered that the bones of so many people from the Red Cliff Clan were in the Mie Quen flower, and these long-winged swallowtails were circling around the flower, and then I stammered, "Is it... so... the Mie Que There are..."
