wasteland ranch

Chapter 24 Fatal Yawn
Something is wrong...

Lin Guiyao unconsciously slowed down, but Bai Ruochu turned around and slapped him.

"Why are you dazed? Why don't you run away!"

"Wait! I get it!"

Lin Guiyao didn't care that his left face became hot, but suddenly his eyes widened and he waved his arms happily.

"Don't get excited, listen to me..."

Lin Guiyao pulled Bai Ruochu back hard, slowing down the two of them.

"Look carefully at those black snakes. They don't even have eyes. So how do they track us?"

"Smell? Then they can't find you when they're in the water!"

"Heat energy? It's possible, but tortoises are cold-blooded animals. They also chased after them, and chased them even more, so it must not be the reason!"

"So, the way they traced it, only the last one remained,"

Lin Guiyao lowered his voice, and moved close to the ear of Bai Ruochu who was staring wide-eyed and stopped with him unknowingly:

"Sound! Or rather, vibration!"

Seeing that running away was a dead end, Lin Guiyao suddenly came up with the idea that this was just a game puzzle.

And puzzles are impossible to solve.

So he turned back to observe frequently, and it really made him discover a magical possibility.

The huge turtle was frightened, and his limbs continued to slap the ground, making a huge sound, so the snake group turned the target to it.

And the hundreds of little black snakes chasing Lin Guiyao were all the ones chasing at the front, and they sensed more of their footsteps and vibrations, so they continued chasing them.

Of course, to confirm this guess, you need to take a risk.

If he is wrong, it is death!

After hearing this, Bai Ruochu saw the group of snakes getting closer, suddenly gritted his teeth, stood in front of Lin Guiyao, raised his daggers, and stopped.

If Lin Guiyao's guess was wrong, she would buy him some time to escape.

Lin Guiyao shook his head with a wry smile, but it was too late for him to do some stupid macho behavior like: "No, you should hide behind me, I want to protect you".

The two stopped and held their breath. Seeing the group of black snakes getting closer, Lin Guiyao suddenly noticed that Bai Ruochu's shoulders were shaking slightly.

"This silly woman..."

It was only then that Lin Guiyao remembered that despite Bai Ruchu's usual indifference, she was still a girl in her twenties after all.

On Earth, Bai Ruochu guessed that he hadn't even graduated from college, so he was at the age of a flower.

Seeing a dense group of small snakes swarming towards her, other women would have screamed, but Bai Ruochu only trembled slightly.

It's not her fault, Lin Guiyao himself feels that he is not much better than her.

The black snakes are 6 meters, 5 meters, 4 meters away from them,
When they were 3 meters away, the speed suddenly dropped, and then when they were only one meter away from Lin Guiyao and the others, they turned around and rushed towards the giant turtle.

Become!

Bai Ruochu looked back at Lin Guiyao happily, only to find his pale face and cold sweat.

"let's go."

Bai Ruochu moved quietly, using his mouth and movements to signal Lin Guiyao to follow.

With that group of black snakes here, I am afraid that this stone forest will not be able to come here in the future.

But Lin Guiyao suddenly squeezed her cold hand tightly, and pointed in the direction of the pond.

"Are you... crazy...?"

Bai Ruochu's eyes widened, and he questioned Lin Guiyao with his mouth. Does he think he is living too comfortably?Or is it too kind, wanting to add another meal to the snakes?

Didn't you see that giant tortoise shrunk in its shell and kept wailing "Ahh~ahhh~"?
"Go back, believe in me!"

Lin Guiyao's lips moved and his eyes expressed his opinions resolutely.

Bai Ruochu's response was to shake off the paw that was still holding her hand, and then turned to the pond.

……

The two moved back to the pond almost in small steps. The group of little black snakes really didn't have a high IQ, they only responded to the sound, and they were still around the giant tortoise. Looks like I haven't found a way yet.

It seems that Lin Guiyao's guess was correct, Bai Ruochu must have been near the pond before, and the shock was accidentally transmitted into the water, which stabbed the snake's nest.

Seeing the giant python coiled into a ball less than half a meter away from him, with his eyes closed, his huge abdomen swelled and contracted slightly, as if he had really fallen into a deep sleep.

Lin Guiyao suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his heartbeat, it had never beat so violently even when he confessed to his first love.

Of course, it's not that he loves someone deeply, he's just scared to death.

"what to do?"

Bai Ruochu opened and closed his mouth, making a poking gesture with the dagger.

"No!... We... take... that... one."

Lin Guiyao pointed his finger at the white jade lotus, his eyes were full of confusion.

For a snake that grows that big in two months, just treat it as a radiation freak in the wasteland, but this white jade lotus, Lin Guiyao will not let it go.

The ranch system in his hand is, to put it bluntly, an auxiliary system for farming, but it does not have such a powerful function as a shopping mall.

As a result, I have to find all the seeds myself, and the system can only help improve it, which is really hard.

Because of this, he is bound to get this lotus seed, which is not ordinary at first sight!
What's more, all the snakes are attracted by the unlucky tortoise, and the giant python has fallen into a deep sleep for some reason. How can such a good opportunity be missed?

Signaling Bai Ruochu to rest assured, Lin Guiyao carefully stepped his foot into the pond.

Fortunately, the pond is not big, and the lotus seeds are not far from the shore, so he only needs to take two steps forward to reach them.

It's just that since the pond where tens of thousands of snakes can climb out is not big, it must be very deep, and it can't make any noise, so Lin Guiyao's movements are very slow.

Carefully testing the depth of the pond, Lin Guiyao slowly shifted his focus, and due to fear and loss of physical strength, fine sweat gradually oozed from his face.

He felt that the python's breath was almost spraying on his face!

"almost!"

Seeing that his palm was still two centimeters away from the lotus pod, Lin Guiyao calmed down, but suddenly felt a slight movement in his chest.

Ga Beng, who was hanging on his chest, was so alive that he woke up at this moment and yawned a lot!

then……

It stared at a pair of puzzled eyes, looked at the giant python only a dozen centimeters away from itself, opened its mouth wide,

"Ah~!"

A loud scream burst out from its mouth. Bai Ruochu was so shocked that he covered his ears, but he forgot that he was still holding a dagger and almost stabbed himself.

As for Lin Guiyao, his head went blank, he just stayed where he was, quietly looking at a pair of huge eyes,

Slowly opened in front of him...
