Chapter 339 The Secret Hidden in the Treasure Chest
A purple key!
A key to control Mimics!
The moment Xu Xin got the key, the original red dot immediately turned into a green light dot at the location of the monster on the map.
very good.
The treasure box monster is now his own.
Both Silver King and Mimi have also sensed the change of the monster, and their tense bodies gradually relaxed, and they no longer made an attacking posture.
Surrounding the treasure chest, the vines that pointed their vines at the treasure monster all the time no longer had any intention of attacking, and slowly shrank back below the ground.
Lou Fei'er was also slightly puzzled, and put down the dagger she had been holding in front of her all the time: "From this treasure chest, I can no longer feel hostility and danger. It is, has it surrendered?"
Xu Xin shook the key in his hand and said with a smile, "It's my own now... No, it's my own box."
"I understand," Li Wenxi looked at the key in Xu Xin's hand and guessed, "The person who has the key is its owner, right? You are the owner of this treasure chest monster now."
"That's right." Xu Xin nodded and walked to the side of the treasure chest monster.
Before Xu Xin came over, the treasure box monster opened itself, opened its bloody mouth, spit out the mutated vines protruding from its throat, and dangled outside the box.
Well, it's like a dog sticking out its tongue to show its goodwill.
"There's something in your belly, spit it out for me to see." Xu Xin looked at the monster that had completely surrendered, and said.
After the treasure box monster heard this, it immediately retracted the vine that was hanging out like a tongue, and then closed it.
Then, it remained motionless and did not open on its own, as if it was waiting for Xu Xin to open it.
"This is……"
Xu Xin reached out and touched the monster, and found that its soft, fleshy body had become cold and hard again, exactly like real metal.
He reached out to lift the lid of the treasure chest.
The treasure chest was not locked, and he didn't need the key in his hand to open it. Although the lid was heavy, with Xu Xin's current strength, he could easily lift it up.
Inside, there are still those dazzling gold and silver jewels.
He seemed to understand a little bit.
This treasure box monster should have two forms.
The first form is the one with the big mouth open.
In this form, the Mimic can use its large mouth to chew food, as if it had just chewed on a vine. At the same time, it can also spit out mutated vines from its mouth to attack outwards, which is an active attack form.
The second form is the current form, that is, the form of the treasure chest.
The inside of the monster in this form is no longer the bloody mouth, but the inside of a real treasure chest. Judging from the introduction of the key, it will contain all kinds of treasures it has swallowed before. plant something. Those that cannot be digested by the monsters will remain.
However, this second form of treasure box monster should not be able to open, close and move by itself.
The box is very large, and after opening it, the survivors can only reach a small part of the treasure with bare hands.
If you want to see and get all the treasures in it, you have to poke your body into it.
At this time, the treasure box monster can immediately transform into a cannibal form, close instantly, and devour the survivors who penetrate into it!
... What a terrible method!
Even Xu Xin, when he saw the thick layer of gold and silver jewelry inside, couldn't help but want to see if there were other things buried under the jewelry.
If it was just an ordinary treasure chest, he would definitely have rummaged through the contents.
However, there shouldn't be only these things in it, right?
"Can't you spit out the treasure yourself?" Xu Xin asked.
The treasure chest trembled slightly, and then there was no response.
It doesn't seem to work, so I can only find it myself.
Xu Xin reached out to explore the inside of the treasure chest, but was immediately held back by two hands.
One is Li Wenxi's hand, and the other is Lou Fei'er's hand.
"Even if you got the key, is it too dangerous for you?" Li Wenxi was a little scared when she thought of the scene where the vines were cut off by the closed box just now, "I'm not afraid of being cut off, and there doesn't seem to be anything good in it. ..."
The treasure monster seemed to understand Li Wenxi's words, and it trembled twice in this form, which was immobile, as if to protest Li Wenxi's distrust of it and belittlement of its treasures.
"Let me come, let me see what's inside, my speed is fast, even if it dares to close, it can't catch me." Lou Fei'er didn't want Xu Xin to take risks, so she said.
"..." Xu Xin shook his head helplessly.
Neither of the two women could see the green dot on the map, and they didn't know that the treasure box monster was already on their side.
"Okay, then you come and see what's under these gold and silver jewels." Xu Xin didn't insist anymore. Someone is working, and he is happy to be free.
After getting the permission, Lou Feier immediately grabbed the box wall and jumped up. She lay down on the side of the box, leaned half of her body in, and started to rummage.
Her height is about 1.65 meters, and the height of the box is 1.5 meters. The box has reached the height of her mouth and nose. Of course, she has to jump up to get to the things inside.
Seeing Lou Feier's posture, Xu Xin was speechless.
It's better for him to take it himself. If there is a real problem, wouldn't it be more dangerous.
"Fei'er is so dangerous..." Li Wenxi was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Xu Xin put away the halberd in his hand, and then couldn't help pinching the face of Li Wenxi who was leaning against him. Her face was smooth, tender and cool when pinched, which made him a little fond of it , "It's fine for you to go in and search."
Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's hand that was pinching her face with both hands, but didn't push it away, allowing him to pinch her gently: "Is it really possible? Then I too..."
"Find a good thing!" Lou Fei'er, who leaned her whole body in, leaving only her buttocks and legs dangling outside, yelled in the treasure chest, then jumped out, turned around, and held a few cards in her hand The contract card with blue-grade light, eyes full of surprise, "This is really a good thing!"
With that said, she handed these contracts to Xu Xin.
[Mutated beast contract (blue): You can contract a mid-level mutant creature to make it obey. 】
Um?
Xu Xin's pupils shrank.
Mutated beast contract?
A blue-level mutant beast contract that can contract mid-level mutant creatures?
Several contract cards were filled with red characters that he didn't recognize, and there was a faint smell of blood.
Although he didn't know what these words were, but...
He knew the person who wrote these words!
Isn't this... the font of Changyin? !
He immediately took out the green-level mutant beast contract he had obtained before, and compared it.
Sure enough, this is Changyin's handwriting!
Exactly the same handwriting!
This mutated beast contract (blue) is definitely made by Changyin!
Why is there a mutant beast contract made by Changyin in this treasure chest?
Lou Fei'er had already leaned in to start searching again, and Xu Xin kept this doubt in her heart.
Let's see what's inside first.
"Is this a mutant beast contract?" Li Wenxi glanced at the contract in Xu Xin's hand, and immediately recognized it. Xu Xin also gave her one before she contracted A Niu, so she is also very familiar with this thing .
"Well, a contract that can contract mid-level mutant creatures." Xu Xin handed the contract to her.
"A more advanced contract." Li Wenxi didn't feel much about the mutated creature contract, so she gave it back to Xu Xin, and then looked at the big treasure chest eagerly, "It seems that there is really no danger! I'll go find it too!"
Lou Feier was still searching.
She put the useless gold, silver and jewels into her backpack bit by bit, but the contents of the treasure chest did not seem to decrease at all.
"What..." She jumped out of the treasure chest, only to see Li Wenxi standing beside her.
"What's the matter, why didn't you look for it? I'll help you find it together!" Li Wenxi stood on tiptoe and looked inside, "Wow, there are a lot of gold, silver and jewels. If these things are brought to the earth, they will directly become billions of dollars. Rich man now!"
"There are too many things." Lou Feier shook his head, "Besides, I feel that I have already packed a box of jewelry in my backpack, and there is no shortage of things in it. Why don't I just push it in and put the things in it Just pour it out!"
Too.
However, it seems inconvenient to go outside, since the treasure box monster has surrendered, let's go to the tree house to do this kind of thing.
"Can you move by yourself?" Xu Xin asked the lid of the treasure chest.
The monster closed the lid, and when it opened again, all the jewels were gone, and the inside became a bloody mouth.
Then, under the watchful eyes of Xu Xin and the others, countless mutated vines came out of its mouth, and then bent towards the ground.
A dozen or so vine spider legs propped up the entire treasure chest, and then started running around Xu Xin like a spider.
"It's so weird..." Li Wenxi blinked, looking at the moving box in front of her.
"It's really moving..." Lou Fei'er's eyes twitched, "Like a big spider, it feels a little disgusting..."
Xu Xin motioned for the treasure box to stop, closed it herself, and put it into the bracelet.
Take it up first, pour out the contents, and see what's there.
"Do you want to go back?" Xu Xin turned to look at Li Wenxi and asked.
"Ah?" Li Wenxi was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "If you don't go back, you won't go back, I... At least let me see what's in the treasure chest, I really care!"
"Well...then I'll go back first." Lou Fei'er pointed to her tree house, "Should I not be needed?"
She suddenly lost interest in the big spider-like treasure chest.
"Well, you go back and have a good rest, adjust and prepare, tomorrow, you need to climb the snow mountain."
"OK."
Back in the tree house, Mimi and Yin Wang went back to nest on the third floor, while Xu Xin came to the 100-square-meter space on the first floor that was expanded by the banyan tree and was still vacant.
He made a dining table, and then released the monster with the opening facing the side, and placed it on the table.
The treasure box monster at this time is in the state of a treasure box.
"Hey!" Ke Ke followed Xu Xin to the second floor, and was startled by the sudden appearance of a big treasure chest.
"Ke Ke!" Li Wenxi picked up Ke Ke, and one panda and one panda looked at the treasure box curiously.
Xu Xin directly opened the treasure chest lying on the ground.
"Wow!"
Countless gold, silver and jewels flowed out of the treasure chest and fell under the table, covering several square meters of floor in an instant.
"Wow!" "Huh?"
Both Li Wenxi and Ke Ke were shocked.
"So many treasures, so many!" Li Wenxi was stunned.
There are too many gold, silver and jewels spread on the ground at this time!
Even though the treasure chest is already very big, it still can't fit it at all.
Moreover, in the treasure chest, jewels are still flowing out, and there is no tendency to stop at all.
... What the hell! Did this treasure chest monster loot the treasure house of some giant dragon?
Suddenly, a large object fell out of the treasure chest and hit the pile of jewels directly. I don't know how many gold and silver jewels were deformed by the smashing, which shocked both of them.
"This is... a stone statue? A stone statue of a little boy?" Li Wenxi looked at the thing that fell out.
Xu Xin frowned slightly, this stone statue...
The jewels were still flowing out, and they were about to submerge the stone statue, so the two quickly dragged the stone statue out.
"...Huh?" Ke Ke let out a suspicious cry, then circled around the stone statue twice, stood up, tilted his head, and suddenly said, "Yihhhhhhhhh!"
It ran to Xu Xin's feet, tugged at his trouser legs, pointed its paws at the stone statue, and kept yelling: "Bee!"
Xu Xin knew what Ke Ke wanted to say.
His expression was a little dull at this moment.
The stone statue of a little boy hugs his legs tightly with his hands, curls up, and hangs his head.
Xu Xin stretched out his hand to straighten it, letting the stone statue sit on the ground.
The stone statue of the little boy was sitting on the ground, staring blankly at the ground in front of him, with a dull expression, just like Lou Feier who just came out of the bracelet every time, as if he had experienced something terrible.
The treasure chest has stopped flowing out of jewels, and the chest has been completely emptied except for a small half of jewels.
There were a lot of jewels on the ground, covering more than ten square meters, and even a hill of jewels was piled up beside the table.
And among the piles of white-grade jewels all over the floor, there are many blue and green light spots shining, and there is even a purple light spot, indicating that there are still real and useful treasures in it.
But these attractions to Xu Xin are not at all comparable to the green-grade stone statue of a little boy in front of him.
Xu Xin couldn't be more familiar with this face.
This...isn't this the child of Changyin and Xuelan, that boy called...something called "Xiaohong"? !
ah? !
Why is this little boy in the belly of the treasure box monster?
Thinking of the mutated beast contract made by Changyin himself in the treasure chest, Xu Xin looked at the stone statue of the little boy, and the way he looked at the treasure chest changed.
He felt a little cold in his body.
This treasure chest is actually related to the Changyin family!
That being the case, what about the snow mountain?
Also, on the top of the snow mountain, the pile of stone statues similar to Changyin's family, could it be...
