Chapter 1077: Insect Master

There are many other "mushroom villas" like the one where Evelyn and Cosette lived in Huayuan Township.

Some mushroom houses are the residences of goblins, while others are guest rooms for distinguished guests from afar.

Compared with the "mushroom mansion" seen in the mushroom people, Joan prefers this kind of two-story hut. Being in it, it seems to have entered the world of fairy tales.

Evelyn entertained her old friends with a sumptuous meal. In addition to the "fragrant meat" that Joan and the others had tasted in the mushroom man's palace, there was also a large pot of delicious mushroom stew.

Joan picked up a piece of stewed meat and looked at it curiously. The snow-white and delicate meat was like fish. When he stuffed it into his mouth, the tender and juicy delicious taste immediately exploded in his mouth. He couldn't help nodding his head and praised the deliciousness.

"This 'Moth Rat Stewed Mushroom' is Cosette's specialty dish, eat more if you like it." Evelyn said with a smile.

"Moth rat" is one of the common rodents in the underground world. It is called "mouse". It actually looks more like a short-eared rabbit. It is especially abundant in the mushroom forest area. The sharp die teeth start from the rhizome and dig upwards, digging a tunnel through the cap inside the bacterium.

Along the way, Joan would occasionally see a white and fat "short-eared rabbit", squatting on the mushroom cap, looking at passers-by curiously.

If you try to get close to them, these vigilant little animals will twist their buttocks and suddenly disappear from your sight!

When I didn't know the inside story at first, Qiao An was still amazed at the agility of this "little chubby pier" that was not commensurate with his figure. Later, when he got closer to observe, he found that there was a hole dug out of the wide mushroom cap where the moth rat had just lived.

The chubby moth rat just got out of the hole, slid vertically to the root of the mushroom, slipped into the tunnel, and hid.

It is precisely because of this unique living habit that the residents of the underground world call this rodent a "moth rat".

If tall mushrooms such as "giant mushrooms" are compared to trees and houses in the surface world, then "moth rats" who love to dig holes are equivalent to "worms" in the surface world?

Especially for house owners, these cute-looking little animals are really a big scourge. They are so annoying that they are comparable to the termites in the surface world, and they will gnaw the house full of holes at every turn!

Compared with termites, the biggest advantage of "moth rats" is that the meat is tender and delicious, and can be eaten.

At the dining table, Joann heard Evelyn complain about how annoying moth rats are. This "Moth Rat Stewed Mushroom" was so delicious that he even ate two large plates of meat, and he was helping the two ladies vent their anger!

After lunch, Cosette and Evelyn led the visitors to meet their teacher, Mr. Jules, who was respectfully called "Bug Master" by the residents of Huayuan Township.

The Insect Master lives on a small hill in the center of Huayuan Township, living a hermit life far away from the world, focusing on cultivating all kinds of exotic flowers and plants suitable for growing in the underground world all day long.

The Bug Master occasionally leaves his hermitage, mostly to collect rare fungi, plants, or beautiful gems to decorate his private garden on the hill.

In fact, the place name "Huayuan Township" comes from "Jule Garden".

"Bug Master" Jules was one of the first two settlers in Huayuan Township. Although he usually goes in and out and never interferes with the lives of other residents in the township, if the folks are in trouble, or Huayuan Township faces the threat of foreign invasion, this hidden and strong man will always enthusiastically reach out. Help.

Thanks to Master Jules' protection, Huayuan Township can be kept safe in the underground world full of ghosts and monsters, and become a pure land, attracting peace-loving creatures to settle and become more and more prosperous.

Including Jules' students, such as Evelyn and Cosette, all the residents of Huayuan Township regard this respected "worm master" as their lord in their hearts.

But Jules himself always rejected this honor, insisting that:

"If Garden Township has to have a lord, this right should also belong to his friend Mr. Mancini, and he is only an agent of Mancini."

Mr. Mancini was the one who settled on the hill together with Jules, one of the two pioneers of Huayuan Township.

Perhaps this Mr. Mancini made great contributions in the early days of pioneering, but today, this person has long since disappeared.

Even Evelyn and Cosette had never met this man, let alone the people who later moved here.

It is really difficult to convince the public by forcing such a person who is hard to say whether he is still alive or not to be a local lord.

Jules seldom talks about his friends. If someone asks him, where is Mr. Mancini now?

He would always point to the moss-covered hills beneath his feet and answer, "Here is Mancini."

Does Master Jules imply that Mr. Mancini has been buried in a barren mountain, or does he mean something else?

Outsiders have no way of knowing.

Since he insisted that the mossy land under his feet was the epitome of Mr. Mancini, those naturally humorous and mischievous deep gnomes who lived in the country, he nicknamed Mr. Mancini "the moss lord."

Over time, the title spread, and the fungus and goblins followed suit and dubbed Mr. Mancini "our moss lord who never showed his face."

Cosette disapproved of the random nicknames given by the subterranean gnomes.

Evelyn was also a little offended, thinking it was an insult to Mr. Mancini.

The strange thing is that Jules the insect master didn't mind this, and said to his students: "Mr. Mancini doesn't mind this little joke made by the dwarves, and he himself quite likes the 'Lord of Moss'." What about nicknames?"

The people walked and chatted, and soon came to the foot of the hill. In front of them was a beautiful plank road, paved with white fine sand, like a jade belt around the hill, leading directly to the garden on the top of the hill.

Before going up the mountain, Evelyn revealed something about the teacher to the young visitors, so that they could prepare in advance and avoid any fuss when they met.

"Master Jules is not a human being, but a very rare insect-shaped monster."

"We honor Mr. Jules as 'Bug Master', not only because he is our teacher, but also because he looks like a huge beetle."

Weird?

And it's worm-shaped?

Hailar, Holden, and Audrey first looked at each other, and then the eyes of the three fell on Joan's face at the same time.
