The Return of Cambrian Period
Chapter 27
After running for three or four miles in one breath, a gray and dilapidated forest appeared in front of them without warning. Unlike the scene they had walked along, the trees here were not only not luxuriant, but dead and disabled. The broken and decayed tree trunks fell to the ground in all directions. The strangest thing is that those trunks are covered with clusters of white things, which look like clusters of flowers, and the petals are transparent and shiny, very beautiful. Some people's heads are small. The big ones even raced a car.
San'er shouted: "Stop."
Cong Xia was surprised: "What are these things, why do they look so much like white fungus?"
San'er looked solemn: "It's white fungus."
Just as Huo Bai wanted to go up to have a look, Zhuang Yao shouted: "Don't move! These white fungus are not right, look at the soil on the ground."
Everyone lowered their heads. The ground that should have been covered with weeds or green moss was barren of grass. The fertile black soil that the Northeast people are proud of has turned into a somewhat dark red soil in this area. Not only that, the soil is constantly emerging Tiny air bubbles, puffing, as if breathing, the whole dark red land emits a stench, and those spotless and delicate white fungus flowers are incompatible with this lifeless soil.
Cong Xia said: "San'er, what's going on?"
San'er said anxiously: "I don't know, I didn't have these things when I came last time. There used to be a wild boar's septic tank and a bathing pool nearby..." He didn't finish his sentence, and the vibration of the ground no longer needed Li Dao'an. Earth energy evolved people perceive from the ground, and everyone can feel the ground tremor caused by the running of large animals.
San'er's expression changed: "Damn it, it's a wild boar!"
Cong Xia's heart tightened, he couldn't be so unlucky, there were wild boars in the back, white fungus and soil in front of him, just looking at the barren ground, he knew that he couldn't walk over it, but the detour was probably too late. That's too late.
Zhuang Yao grabbed a food bag and threw it into the white fungus bushes. As soon as the canvas bag touched the dark red soil, the soil began to spit out a lot of air bubbles. The whole land seemed to be alive, little by little. Devouring the cloth bag, the cloth bag seemed to be soaked in sulfuric acid and was being digested. After a while, it sank into the soil without a trace.
Zhuang Yao said decisively: "The swamp is corrosive, so take a detour."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Did we accidentally break into the wild boar's territory?"
Zhuang Yao said: "This swamp may have been a septic tank for wild boars before, and the wild boars felt that we had violated their territory."
Deng Xiao said angrily: "Who is interested in the place where they shit!"
The herd of wild boars was already faintly visible, and the number was more than forty. If they were hit like this, half of them would be disabled.
Li Dao'ai said: "It's too late to go around, let's rush over, I can change the soil quality of the swamp, but I can't hold on for too long, step on it carefully, you should be able to pass."
Zhuang Yao's brain quickly calculated: "It took 36 seconds for the wild boars to collide with us, and it is really too late to detour."
Zhuang Yao winked at Cong Xia, and Cong Xia nodded, without Zhuang Yao saying, he would also replenish Li Dao'an's energy.
Li Dao'ai straddled Huo Bai's back and shouted, "Go!"
Huo Bai had complete trust in Li Dao'an, and jumped into the bubbling dark red swamp without hesitation.When his paws stepped in, the soil under his feet was hard, but the fur on the pads of his feet had been scorched by the corrosive soil.
San'er and Abu followed closely behind, and their running route formed a straight line. Not only was the speed slow, but they also needed to be careful not to step on the wrong side, which was very painful for them.
After rushing into the swamp for more than 200 meters, the pads of Abu and Huo Bai were corroded and torn. San'er's hoof was in better condition, but he still felt a little pain.
Just when they breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they had escaped the attack of the herd of wild boars, when they looked back, those wild boars jumped into the mud regardless of their own safety, and swam towards them at a speed that shocked them.
Cong Xia was shocked, "Why didn't they sink in!"
Zhuang Yao said: "It seems that the quagmire is not deep."
"Damn it, the skin is too thick, the soil is only a little less corrosive than mine, so it hasn't turned into a roast pig?" Liu Fengyu watched those big black-haired wild boars three or four meters high rushing towards them, and thought in his heart. Bouts of chills.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Their sebum and the soil wrapped around them are more than ten centimeters thick, so they are not so easy to corrode."
San'er's tone was much lighter: "It's okay, they swim so slowly, they can't catch up with us."
Cong Xia didn't dare to relax at all. Li Dao'an's energy was exhausted too fast. After running more than 500 meters, the energy in his body was almost exhausted. Seeing that Li Dao'an's face was pale, Cong Xia originally just gave him too much energy little by little. , At this time, he didn't care about being discovered by him, and poured energy into his body like pouring water. If Li Daoyi lost the chain at this time, they would all fall into this huge septic tank, and the way of death would be too disgusting.
Of course, Li Dao'an felt the energy pouring into his body continuously, and he glanced at Cong Xia in surprise.
Huo Bai suddenly shouted: "No, there are wild boars ahead!"
Sure enough, a larger group of wild boars jumped into the swamp in front of them. Those wild boars were covered with a thick layer of dark red soil. It seemed that this was really the old nest of wild boars. Rolling in the swamp, of course not afraid of the swamp.
Seeing being pinched back and forth, Cheng Tianbi said loudly: "At three o'clock the wild boars are the least, break out from there, Yanqiu, follow me." He flew into the air with wind cannons on his arms, and Tang Yanqiu spread out. Wings followed.
Deng Xiao said enviously: "Brother Cheng can fly without wings, that's great." He picked up the Gatling, and the machine gun was attached to a standard magazine with only 600 rounds of bullets. The big magazine box was on Abu's body. It was too late to take it.
The three people holding weapons were worried that they would not have a chance to try their power. Looking at those ferocious wild boars, they were all a little excited at the same time. Wild boars swim fast in the swamp, but in their eyes they are still very slow. Totally a living target.
Tang Yanqiu drew out a light arrow, and the streamlined arrow shot out with a whistling sound, hitting a big wild boar's egg-sized eye, and the wild boar howled piercingly, the sound was extremely scary, but it didn't Instead of falling, he rushed towards them frantically.
Tang Yanqiu wanted to shoot the other eye, but the wild boar was hit by an arrow, learned to dodge well, the arrow pierced the corner of the eye, and did not cause any harm to it.Tang Yanqiu took another arrow, the wild boar suddenly closed its eyes, and tried to plunge its head into the swamp, Tang Yanqiu shot an arrow into the wild boar's ear, the arrow hit the central nervous system, and the wild boar rolled like crazy, Roaring, and finally slowly sinking into the mud, suffocating to death.
Cong Xia sighed: "The vitality is really tenacious." It was the first time they saw a creature that required Tang Yanqiu to shoot three arrows to kill.
Cheng Tianbi flew over the two wild boars and aimed the jackhammer at them.The wind force was suddenly injected into the cannon barrel, the huge wind force was rapidly compressed in the cannon barrel, and then there was a loud bang, the transparent compressed wind group blasted towards a wild boar, the wind group exploded, and the two wild boars were thrown out of the mud. When they fell back, their flesh and blood were flying, and they were blown to death without even screaming!
Everyone was stunned, this power is too overbearing!
San'er stared at his swollen deer eyes bigger than duck eggs: "Oh my god, it's amazing, how much is this thing, can I afford it?"
Deng Xiao laughed and said, "If you can afford it, you won't be able to use it. Only people who have evolved through the natural force of wind can use it."
Li Dao'an and Huo Bai were also shocked by the power of Cheng Tianbi Wind Cannon.Although they are now teammates fighting side by side, there is always a subtle competition between natural force evolutionists. Even Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze, who have a pretty good relationship, can't get rid of this consciousness. This is the relationship between the strong and the strong. The former mutual taboo.
At this time, the three of Shen Changze flew back from a distance, all in a panic, their hair was messed up like weeds, there were many small wounds on their faces and bodies, and there were even some blood holes on their wings. Zhao Zixiang had completely turned into a wing. The 7-meter-long giant vulture has a lot of blood on its feathers.
Huo Bai called out, "Brother Zhao, are you alright?"
Zhao Zixiang said: "I can't die."
Li Dao'an yelled: "Ah Bai, take a detour!"
As soon as Huo Bai turned his head, he saw a big wild boar about his size swimming in front of him. He quickly and flexibly changed his direction, and San'er, who was following him, couldn't brake in time, and rushed forward at once. The hoof had already been inserted into the swamp that had not been hardened by Li Dao'an, and he screamed in fright. Li Dao'an quickly hardened that part of the swamp, and San'er retreated. If Abu hadn't braked in time, he would have rolled into the swamp with San'er went.
Huo Bai immediately said: "Commander, I'm sorry."
Deng Xiao said angrily, "Who are you going to say sorry to?" He was almost thrown off San'er's back just now, even though he was rough-skinned and thick-skinned, he didn't want to fall into the wild boar cesspool.
Huo Bai said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry."
Zhao Zixiang circled in the sky, swooped down, and grabbed the wild boar's eyes with his huge and sharp claws. The wild boar's eyelids were obviously much thinner than other places, and Zhao Zixiang scratched it and let out a mournful howl.At this time, the sound of a machine gun rang out. No matter how rough the wild boar was, it couldn't withstand the 120 rounds of bullets per second fired by the machine gun. It was blown off its head, and Zhao Zixiang flew up in shock.
Deng Xiao laughed excitedly: "This gun is too domineering."
Zhuang Yao pointed to a wild boar charging towards Abu and shouted: "There is another one over there!" Although Abu was much larger than the wild boar, once he collided with it, Abu would definitely lose, because wild boars are inherently stronger than other animals. It can hit even more, and if it is added with a run-up, it can lift Abu up completely.
Cheng Tianbi flew over, and chopped off his head with a wind blade. He chopped steel plates in the underground training ground for two months. No matter how hard the wild boar skin was, it was no match for metal. The big rough-haired wild boar was split in half by him. .
Shen Changze and Al also joined the ranks of the wild boar battle.
Cong Xia shouted: "Quickly get out of here, Officer Li consumes too much energy!"
When Huo Bai heard this, he ran forward with all his strength, and they rushed past the herd of wild boars in this way, and reached the opposite bank that was not spread by the tremella swamp.
After stepping on the real land, they ran wildly and ran for five kilometers in one breath. They stopped panting after making sure that there were no wild boars chasing after them.
Abu was so tired that he fell to the ground, and San'er even lay down directly.
Cong Xia had lingering fears: "That swamp is too evil, why do white fungus bloom in such a dirty and smelly place?"
San'er said dejectedly: "Ghost knows, this forest really changes every day. I thought I knew it well, but I couldn't keep up with its changing pace."
Cong Xia comforted him and said, "Don't say that, without your familiarity with this forest, we would suffer even more."
Huo Bai didn't rest on his back like Abu and San'er. Instead, he checked Li Dao'an's condition immediately. Seeing that Li Dao'an was pale and his breathing was slow, he said worriedly, "Commander? Are you okay? Are you running out of energy?" ?”
Li Dao'an glanced at Cong Xia: "Fortunately, not yet."
Cong Xia remained calm, Li Dao'ai is a smart person, and a smart person will keep secrets, because now he is still silently sending energy to Li Dao'ai, with immediate benefits, why bother with the truth.
It was thanks to Li Dao'an that they could get through the swamp this time, otherwise they would have to meet the wild boar on the ground, risking being pushed into the swamp, and having a fierce battle.
Cong Xia replenished most of Li Dao'an's energy, and repaired the injuries of Zhao Zixiang and others.
Zhuang Yao said with some regret: "I really want to take some tremella back to study it, it looks very interesting."
"Tremella." Deng Xiao said with a smile, "I took it!"
Zhuang Yao was surprised: "You took it? When?"
"When Brother Cheng was frying wild boar, I grabbed a stuffed plant and put it in the bag. Tremella pear soup is very refreshing in summer. This tremella looks so beautiful, so it must be delicious." Deng Xiao said, starting from the machine gun. He grabbed something from the leather case and proudly displayed it, "Look..."
Everyone's eyes widened, Zhuang Yao said: "Throw it away!"
Deng Xiao turned his head to look, and was immediately stunned. The white fungus balls turned blood red at some point!The petals are layered on top of each other, delicate and charming, really beautiful, but no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a good thing.
Deng Xiao waved his hands and wanted to throw it away, but the white fungus suddenly stretched out all the petals and shrank suddenly. A large group of white fungus wrapped Deng Xiao's forearm instantly, and the blood-red petals seemed to pierce into his crotch. The skin, his entire forearm suddenly turned red.Deng Xiao yelled in horror, "Ahhhhhhhhh what the hell—"
The accident happened so suddenly, Shen Changze rushed up, one hand turned into a dragon blood man's scaly claws, grabbed Deng Xiao's arm, grabbed the white fungus and licked it down, but he only licked off a few thin layers. Thin petals, those soft jelly-like petals fell to the ground, and the soil immediately made a sizzling sound, and soon turned dark red.Shen Changze looked at his hands, and the skin was corroded a little.
Those white fungus were melting into Deng Xiao's arms as if they were alive, and there was no way to stop them.
Zhuang Yao made a decisive decision: "Chop off your arm."
Deng Xiao's face was distorted: "Don't——"
"Chopped!"
Cheng Tianbi patted his shoulder: "It will hurt a little."
"Wait a moment!"
This call was not made by Deng Xiao, but by Cong Xia.
Deng Xiao's eyes were full of tears: "Brother Cong, save me."
Cong Xia looked anxiously at the white fungus that kept climbing up Deng Xiao's forearm: "How is your neurotoxoid concentration?"
"Poisoning ordinary people is no problem."
"I will help you secrete more toxins. See if you can fight them off by yourself. If you fail, you will really have to chop off your arm."
Deng Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "Try it."
Cong Xia transformed the Cambrian energy into water energy and injected it into Deng Xiao's body. After finding a poisonous gland under his armpit, he poured the energy into it. The poisonous gland began to produce highly poisonous at an accelerated rate. Deng Xiao controlled the toxin to spread to his arm. Until I ran into those blood-red white fungus.
The two toxins began to attack each other crazily, and there was severe pain in his arm. He had the illusion that his arm was going to explode in a second. He gritted his teeth and endured it. No matter how painful it was, it should not be as good as being cut off and growing back pain.Finally, he couldn't help shouting: "Ah, it hurts!"
Cheng Tianbi patted him on the shoulder: "Hold it, or..." He gestured his arm with his hand, and Deng Xiao shut up immediately in fright.
The pain and the sense of crisis prompted Deng Xiao to desperately secrete toxins, the secretion level was three times stronger than usual, the white fungus was finally forced to retreat steadily, and was slowly forced out of the body, the white fungus flesh like jelly was released from Deng Xiao's arm. The top was peeled off, fell to the ground, and was completely burned by Shen Changze.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Deng Xiao felt as if he had been pardoned.
Cong Xia said helplessly, "Do you still dare to touch things indiscriminately in the future?"
Deng Xiao pouted dejectedly.
Zhuang Yao said: "It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, has the level of toxins in the body increased?"
"Yes, several poisonous glands secrete a lot of toxins."
"Very well, your atavism process has progressed a step further, stick out your tongue and show me."
Deng Xiao stuck out a pink tongue.
Zhuang Yao glared at him: "Are you an idiot, who wants to look at your human tongue!"
Deng Xiao's tongue froze in the air, and he retracted it aggrievedly. After a while, a snake-like tongue protruded from his mouth, at least 15 centimeters long, and blue-purple in color.Zhuang Yao took out the utensils from his carry-on bag, scraped off the coating of his tongue: "Okay."
The tongue snapped back into his mouth, and Deng Xiao laughed.
Zhuang Yao rolled his eyes, "Smile, you almost lost your arm."
Deng Xiao glanced at the charred white fungus, showing a rather regretful expression.
Li Dao'an grabbed it from the air, and the soil under the white fungus flew into his hands as if being sucked up: "The soil has been eroded by the white fungus. I'm afraid this place will turn into a swamp after a while."
Zhuang Yao dug some soil and half-burned white fungus into the container: "Go back and study it."
San'er looked at the sky: "Let's go, we are only ten kilometers away from Devil Pine."
Cheng Tianbi asked: "What else might you encounter?"
"Anything is possible."
Everyone speeded up unconsciously.
It's a pity that the sky didn't come true. After advancing six or seven kilometers, they ran into a group of monkeys.Those monkeys were very big, swinging between the tall and thick branches, grinning fiercely.
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "Don't pay attention to them, go at full speed."
A monkey swung over from the tree, flung its fangs and paws at Zhuang Yao on Abu's head, and before it touched Zhuang Yao, Abu slapped it away with his paw, and yelled at the monkeys at the same time.
Abu's voice was very loud, and the monkeys, not to be outdone, yelled even louder, but no monkeys rushed forward again.Just jumping quickly among the bushes, following them closely, unable to get rid of them for a while.
Suddenly, a black object was thrown towards the top of Abu's head, and Abu slapped it away without thinking. When everyone looked carefully, it turned out to be a pine cone as big as a bucket!
The monkeys screamed excitedly one after another, and the pine cones hit them one after another. The small ones were as big as basketballs, and the big ones were like exercise balls.
There are so many monkeys that everyone is overwhelmed.
"Damn it, these dead monkeys!" Liu Fengyu shot at the monkeys with his liquid gun, but the pine leaves were too thick and the monkeys were fast. He shot for a long time, but none of them were shot. The monkeys made faces at him vigorously and danced. The ground demonstration made him choked up.
Deng Xiao picked up the machine gun, and the dense rain of bullets finally took effect, and several monkeys howled and fell from the tree.
Cheng Tianbi's wind cannons and wind blades took turns to go into battle, Tang Yanqiu's arrows shuttled through the dense forest without fail, Shen Changze flew into the air and threw fireballs into the monkeys, Al and Zhao Zixiang followed closely behind with submachine guns .
When a pine cone fell towards Huo Bai, the soil on the ground jumped up two meters, and a solid earth wall was erected out of thin air.
A group of black shadows attacked Abu again, and Abu waved his paw again. Cong Xia felt abnormal energy fluctuations from the black shadow. He instantly strengthened his eyesight and took a closer look: "Abu, don't—"
It was too late, Abu shattered the black shadow with one paw, and immediately, a large group of finger-long bumblebees buzzed out.
These monkeys actually threw a hornet's nest at them!
The bumblebee rushed towards Abu fearlessly.Cong Xia pushed Zhuang Yao under her body, hugged her head with her clothes, and lay on Abu, not daring to move.
Deng Xiao cursed: "These monkeys are really wicked!"
Liu Fengyu's arm turned into huge bright red petals, blocking the way of the wasps like a wall, and the wasps stuck to the petals one after another, like a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and were instantly digested.
Shen Changze flew over and breathed fire at the hornet colony, killing many of them at once.
They wiped out the hornet swarm quickly, and the monkeys also suffered heavy casualties, and gradually fled in all directions.
Abu got several stings on his face, and rubbed his mouth against his chest while running, looking funny and pitiful.
Another crisis has passed, and everyone is filled with resentment, desperately wanting to scold their mothers.Ever since they entered this ghost forest, they have been constantly attacked and harassed in various ways. Although they didn't pose much threat, every time someone was injured and everyone was exhausted.
"Devil pine!" San'er shouted suddenly.
Far ahead, there appeared an invisible wall.After they formally entered the forest, they couldn't see the devil pine anymore, because the trees were too tall and covered the sky. Now they were very close to each other, so close that they could directly see the torso of the devil pine with a diameter of one thousand meters.
Cong Xia's heart beat wildly, and the devil pine was just ahead, what would happen to them?Can you get out alive?
The three four-legged animals ran at the fastest speed, especially Huo Bai, whose speed was as fast as a golden lightning.
They entered the area with a radius of 500 meters from the devil pine. Sure enough, as San'er said, there was no tall tree here, and only short weeds grew on the fertile black soil. All the nutrients were absorbed by the devil pine.
There is a brown curtain wall in front of you. You can't see the top when you look up, and you can't see the edges from the left and right. It is so big that it is suffocating.
The surroundings are so quiet that one can hear each other's breathing, and there are dangers everywhere.The energy emitted by the devil pine is a hundred times stronger than any creature they have ever perceived.Looking up, the tree trunk towered into the sky, majestic and huge, and everyone was in awe. They were once again shocked by this sacred tree.
San'er whispered: "I brought you here..." But he hesitated to speak the next words.
Cong Xia looked at him, "San'er, what's wrong with you?"
San'er smiled wryly and said: "Actually, I decided to bring you in, and I have no plan to go back. The ancestors of our village have lived in the Xiaoxing'an Mountains for generations, and the devil pine continues to spread. Within half a year, we will all be homeless, so I am It came in with the determination to die, I hope you can stop it."
Deng Xiao looked up at the big pine tree, and murmured, "Stop it...?"
How to stop it?Facing ultra life forms, they are so tiny.
Zhuang Yao said: "Someone is watching us, do you feel it?"
Everyone felt it carefully, and there really was a feeling of being watched secretly.
Zhuang Yao raised his head and said loudly: "Mr. Songshu, we are from the National Academy of Sciences, can you see us?"
The immature voice echoed heavily in the forest.
After waiting for a while, there was no response. Zhuang Yao continued to shout: "Mr. Songshu, you once spoke when we dispatched a reconnaissance plane. This proves that you have the ability to communicate. Are you willing to communicate with us? The local people and ecology have a huge impact, and if you expand endlessly, it is not a good thing for yourself."
Zhuang Yao could feel the brain waves of the devil pine, and its auditory nerve was sending out weak receiving signals. The devil pine was listening to him, but it didn't respond.
Tang Yanqiu said: "It didn't hear it at all."
"I heard it. Its brain waves are very strange, and the five sensory nerves are gathered far away. For example, the visual nerve is very close to us, and the auditory nerve is far away from us. This may be related to its size, but it is also possible that its five sensory nerves were blocked. For example, the eyesight is working and the brain is sleeping, so the hearing is also falling asleep, let's wake it up."
"Wake up? That's easy." Huo Bai stood up impatiently and took a deep breath.
Everyone covered their ears, Zhuang Yao said: "Don't, this is too..."
Huo Bai uttered a lion's roar that resounded through the sky, and the surrounding woods formed a natural sound wall, creating a huge echo. The roar immediately resounded through the entire forest, startling countless birds and beasts.
The echoes dissipated, and everyone looked at the Devil Pine warily.Just like Zhuang Yao said, the ancestor of the tree was sleeping, and Huo Bai woke him up with a yell. The ancestor was not happy, and [-] million rainstorm pine needles fell down, and they would not directly become sieves.
After waiting for half a minute, the devil pine didn't respond.
Cong Xia blinked: "Is it useless?"
"like……"
Zhuang Yao's expression became serious: "No, its auditory nerve emits a stronger wavelength."
Everyone started to beat their hearts, not knowing what was waiting for them.
"It's really noisy." A deep, deep voice suddenly sounded, the voice circled the tree three times, and the lingering sound continued.
Everyone took a big step back in fright, even Abu felt nervous, and his tail stood up.
"It's really noisy." The voice spoke again, and began to ask and answer: "Eat it, should you eat it?"
Cong Xia was so frightened that her calves were a little weak, she ate... what?
"Can't eat it? Why? Can't children eat it? Humans are so troublesome." The voice sighed.
Zhuang Yao's voice was an octave lower than before, and he said cautiously: "Mr. Songshu, have you seen us?"
To be honest, it was the first time for everyone to see Zhuang Yao talking to people with such a respectful attitude... no, talking to anything, it turns out that smart people know the times.
"Are you talking to me? Why am I talking to you?"
"Since you have language skills, isn't it a pity not to speak?"
"Why is it a pity? I don't need to speak human words. Why am I talking to you again? It's better to eat it. Although it's not nutritious, it's really noisy. Why don't you let me eat it?"
Cold sweat broke out on Zhuang Yao's forehead: "Mr. Songshu, who are you talking to?"
"Not with you?"
Everyone is embarrassing.They have imagined countless scenarios of coming into contact with the Devil Pine head-on, all of which are full of dangers and filled with the shadow of death. Although they are not free from the threat of death now, is this tree too inexplicable, with a dual personality?
Cong Xia whispered: "Is it because its human consciousness hasn't disappeared yet?"
Zhuang Yao nodded: "It is possible."
"Human consciousness? I'm not human, although after I ate a human, he kept talking in my head, which was really noisy." A huge head outline slowly emerged from the tree trunk, and finally formed a clear picture The wooden face of a young man, surprisingly handsome.The face lowered its eyes and looked at them.
Everyone was so nervous that they didn't dare to breathe.
"Huh?" The face suddenly made a puzzled expression, and his eyes fell on Cong Xia.
Cong Xia's heart skipped a beat in fright.
The face suddenly protruded from the tree trunk, and a thick branch was connected behind the face, stretching towards Cong Xia.
Cheng Tianbi collapsed in one step, Zhuang Yao grabbed him and motioned him not to move.
The big wooden face with a diameter of more than [-] meters stretched out in front of Cong Xia before stopping. The thick-looking eyelids blinked lightly, and the eyes without pupils looked straight at Cong Xia. Cong Xia trembled and remained motionless. Dare to move.
Devil Song looked at it for a while, then suddenly said, "I know you."
"Ah? Yes, yes."
"You often pour water and tea on me."
"...That is, watering, fertilizing, fertilizing for you."
Gui Guisong frowned and thought for a while: "No, you are too lazy to go to the toilet and pour the overnight tea into my soil."
"No! Absolutely not!" Cong Xia was so anxious that he almost bit his tongue, "It's all fresh, it's for your health, really."
Devil Song tilted his head: "Oh, you did water me and prune the branches."
Cong Xia nodded desperately.
"What are you doing here? I'm not going back into that thing called a flowerpot."
Cong Xiahan said: "I didn't come to ask you to return the flower pot." He didn't expect that the pine tree had a memory.
"Oh." Devil Song retracted his face, closed his eyes, and said to himself, "Don't make noise, don't make noise."
Zhuang Yao asked, "Is the human being you ate still alive in his brain?"
Devil Song replied: "He's always thinking about human things, it's really annoying... Did you bring anything that humans eat?"
"Bring it."
"give me."
Zhuang Yao said: "When he misses human food, you also want to eat it, don't you?"
Devil Song frowned: "You are so noisy."
Deng Xiao untied a bundle of dried meat from Abu's back: "How do you want to eat it?"
"Throw it on the ground."
Deng Xiao followed suit.
The ground slowly sank, and a big hand made of dead branches stretched out from the ground, grabbed the dried meat and dragged it into the soil, where it disappeared.
Everyone was secretly startled.The ground is actually full of devil pine roots. Not only is the sky unsafe, but there are also traps all over the ground. It is easy for the devil pine to kill them.
"It's finally not so noisy." Devil Song looked at everyone, "Humans, tell me the purpose of your presence in my territory."
Zhuang Yao said: "Mr. Songshu, why did you come here from Yunnan all the way?"
Devil Pine yawned: "Shouldn't pine trees live here? Humans told me."
"You want to... live here?"
"Otherwise, where are we going? It's cool here, the soil is good, and there are countless other people of the same kind. It would be more perfect if you don't have you human beings who are overwhelmed and always harassing me." Devil Song frowned, "Don't make noise, I don't need you to tell me."
Cong Xia said cautiously: "Has the human's self-awareness not disappeared?"
Devil Song looked at him: "You mean, human self-awareness can disappear?"
"In some heterogeneous species, the self-awareness of one party will disappear, but the situation of each species is different."
The devil showed a thoughtful expression: "No, he never disappeared, how to make him disappear... Shut up, you are too annoying, if I knew how to make you disappear, I would have done it already, so you won't disappear Yes, stop arguing!"
Cong Xia said embarrassedly: "I don't know either." Even if he knew, he wouldn't say it.
Zhuang Yao asked a key question: "Mr. Songshu, are you planning to stay here for the rest of your life and never go anywhere?"
The devil said lazily, "No."
"So, do you want to keep growing like this?"
The devil pine seemed a little impatient: "Are human beings afraid that I will encroach on their land? It's ridiculous. When did this land become yours? Besides, it's very cold up there. I don't want to grow any more, but I can't stop. I have any solution."
"Is this why you chose to grow horizontally? Can you evolve on your own?"
"Ah."
"Do you want to stop? We have done a lot of experiments. Evolution is irreversible. The ultimate goal of evolution is self-destruction. Your evolution is too fast."
"Destruction? What do you mean?"
Zhuang Yao described their experiments, but he didn't tell Devil Pine that they only did animal experiments, and the plants were too large to be tested.
Devil Song thought for a while: "You mean, do I explode too?"
"Most likely."
"Why do I trust you?"
"We have a lot of experimental videos. If you want to see them, I have them on my companions outside the forest."
Devil Song glanced at him: "No need, kid, you haven't answered my question, why you came here."
"I want to stop your evolution because it's not good for you or for the humans around you."
"How do you want to stop it?"
Zhuang Yao swallowed, and said cautiously: "Give me your puppet jade."
Devil Song's face slowly stretched out in front of Zhuang Yao: "What is puppet jade?"
"A shard of black transparent jade."
Devil Song's eyes widened suddenly, a giant hand came out from the ground and grabbed Zhuang Yao.
Cheng Tianbi jumped up, holding an invisible wind blade in his hand, and slashed at the giant hand formed by twisted branches. The fierce wind cut off the "wrist" with a diameter of more than one meter, and Zhuang Yao fell down. go.
Abu jumped up suddenly, opened his mouth to enclose Zhuang Yao, Tang Yanqiu flew up, and hugged Zhuang Yao one step faster than it.However, in the next second, a thicker branch came towards Tang Yanqiu with tens of thousands of sharp pine needles.
Li Dao'an instantly formed a huge earthen wall in front of the two of them, and forcibly took this heavy blow.The pine needles more than ten centimeters long penetrated the soil, and the emerald green and dense pine needles were only two or three centimeters away from them, looking cold and scary.
The devil pine couldn't take a single blow, a few branches shook lightly, and countless pine needles fell from the tree like rain. Looking up, the pine needles covered the sky and the sun, making people stand upright, and they had nowhere to go. hide!
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "Shen Changze!"
The two have cooperated many times, and they have a tacit understanding. They skillfully and quickly weave a huge net with wind and fire. The pine needles were burned to ashes in pieces, but there were too many pine needles, and many escaped the fire net. , go down.
Li Dao'an let out a low cry, rolled up the soil under his feet, and built a thick protective wall over their heads again. The sound of "swish, swish, swish" was endless, and in the blink of an eye, the protective wall seemed to have a layer of green hair.
Devil Song wanted to attack, but suddenly said angrily: "They did it first." At the same time, his movements also slowed down.
Zhuang Yao shouted: "Enough, stop!"
Everyone stopped attacking and watched the devil pine warily.
The devil pine struggled for a long time, and finally took back the huge branch, and said angrily: "Don't be in my head!"
San'er shouted: "Stop."
Cong Xia was surprised: "What are these things, why do they look so much like white fungus?"
San'er looked solemn: "It's white fungus."
Just as Huo Bai wanted to go up to have a look, Zhuang Yao shouted: "Don't move! These white fungus are not right, look at the soil on the ground."
Everyone lowered their heads. The ground that should have been covered with weeds or green moss was barren of grass. The fertile black soil that the Northeast people are proud of has turned into a somewhat dark red soil in this area. Not only that, the soil is constantly emerging Tiny air bubbles, puffing, as if breathing, the whole dark red land emits a stench, and those spotless and delicate white fungus flowers are incompatible with this lifeless soil.
Cong Xia said: "San'er, what's going on?"
San'er said anxiously: "I don't know, I didn't have these things when I came last time. There used to be a wild boar's septic tank and a bathing pool nearby..." He didn't finish his sentence, and the vibration of the ground no longer needed Li Dao'an. Earth energy evolved people perceive from the ground, and everyone can feel the ground tremor caused by the running of large animals.
San'er's expression changed: "Damn it, it's a wild boar!"
Cong Xia's heart tightened, he couldn't be so unlucky, there were wild boars in the back, white fungus and soil in front of him, just looking at the barren ground, he knew that he couldn't walk over it, but the detour was probably too late. That's too late.
Zhuang Yao grabbed a food bag and threw it into the white fungus bushes. As soon as the canvas bag touched the dark red soil, the soil began to spit out a lot of air bubbles. The whole land seemed to be alive, little by little. Devouring the cloth bag, the cloth bag seemed to be soaked in sulfuric acid and was being digested. After a while, it sank into the soil without a trace.
Zhuang Yao said decisively: "The swamp is corrosive, so take a detour."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Did we accidentally break into the wild boar's territory?"
Zhuang Yao said: "This swamp may have been a septic tank for wild boars before, and the wild boars felt that we had violated their territory."
Deng Xiao said angrily: "Who is interested in the place where they shit!"
The herd of wild boars was already faintly visible, and the number was more than forty. If they were hit like this, half of them would be disabled.
Li Dao'ai said: "It's too late to go around, let's rush over, I can change the soil quality of the swamp, but I can't hold on for too long, step on it carefully, you should be able to pass."
Zhuang Yao's brain quickly calculated: "It took 36 seconds for the wild boars to collide with us, and it is really too late to detour."
Zhuang Yao winked at Cong Xia, and Cong Xia nodded, without Zhuang Yao saying, he would also replenish Li Dao'an's energy.
Li Dao'ai straddled Huo Bai's back and shouted, "Go!"
Huo Bai had complete trust in Li Dao'an, and jumped into the bubbling dark red swamp without hesitation.When his paws stepped in, the soil under his feet was hard, but the fur on the pads of his feet had been scorched by the corrosive soil.
San'er and Abu followed closely behind, and their running route formed a straight line. Not only was the speed slow, but they also needed to be careful not to step on the wrong side, which was very painful for them.
After rushing into the swamp for more than 200 meters, the pads of Abu and Huo Bai were corroded and torn. San'er's hoof was in better condition, but he still felt a little pain.
Just when they breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they had escaped the attack of the herd of wild boars, when they looked back, those wild boars jumped into the mud regardless of their own safety, and swam towards them at a speed that shocked them.
Cong Xia was shocked, "Why didn't they sink in!"
Zhuang Yao said: "It seems that the quagmire is not deep."
"Damn it, the skin is too thick, the soil is only a little less corrosive than mine, so it hasn't turned into a roast pig?" Liu Fengyu watched those big black-haired wild boars three or four meters high rushing towards them, and thought in his heart. Bouts of chills.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Their sebum and the soil wrapped around them are more than ten centimeters thick, so they are not so easy to corrode."
San'er's tone was much lighter: "It's okay, they swim so slowly, they can't catch up with us."
Cong Xia didn't dare to relax at all. Li Dao'an's energy was exhausted too fast. After running more than 500 meters, the energy in his body was almost exhausted. Seeing that Li Dao'an's face was pale, Cong Xia originally just gave him too much energy little by little. , At this time, he didn't care about being discovered by him, and poured energy into his body like pouring water. If Li Daoyi lost the chain at this time, they would all fall into this huge septic tank, and the way of death would be too disgusting.
Of course, Li Dao'an felt the energy pouring into his body continuously, and he glanced at Cong Xia in surprise.
Huo Bai suddenly shouted: "No, there are wild boars ahead!"
Sure enough, a larger group of wild boars jumped into the swamp in front of them. Those wild boars were covered with a thick layer of dark red soil. It seemed that this was really the old nest of wild boars. Rolling in the swamp, of course not afraid of the swamp.
Seeing being pinched back and forth, Cheng Tianbi said loudly: "At three o'clock the wild boars are the least, break out from there, Yanqiu, follow me." He flew into the air with wind cannons on his arms, and Tang Yanqiu spread out. Wings followed.
Deng Xiao said enviously: "Brother Cheng can fly without wings, that's great." He picked up the Gatling, and the machine gun was attached to a standard magazine with only 600 rounds of bullets. The big magazine box was on Abu's body. It was too late to take it.
The three people holding weapons were worried that they would not have a chance to try their power. Looking at those ferocious wild boars, they were all a little excited at the same time. Wild boars swim fast in the swamp, but in their eyes they are still very slow. Totally a living target.
Tang Yanqiu drew out a light arrow, and the streamlined arrow shot out with a whistling sound, hitting a big wild boar's egg-sized eye, and the wild boar howled piercingly, the sound was extremely scary, but it didn't Instead of falling, he rushed towards them frantically.
Tang Yanqiu wanted to shoot the other eye, but the wild boar was hit by an arrow, learned to dodge well, the arrow pierced the corner of the eye, and did not cause any harm to it.Tang Yanqiu took another arrow, the wild boar suddenly closed its eyes, and tried to plunge its head into the swamp, Tang Yanqiu shot an arrow into the wild boar's ear, the arrow hit the central nervous system, and the wild boar rolled like crazy, Roaring, and finally slowly sinking into the mud, suffocating to death.
Cong Xia sighed: "The vitality is really tenacious." It was the first time they saw a creature that required Tang Yanqiu to shoot three arrows to kill.
Cheng Tianbi flew over the two wild boars and aimed the jackhammer at them.The wind force was suddenly injected into the cannon barrel, the huge wind force was rapidly compressed in the cannon barrel, and then there was a loud bang, the transparent compressed wind group blasted towards a wild boar, the wind group exploded, and the two wild boars were thrown out of the mud. When they fell back, their flesh and blood were flying, and they were blown to death without even screaming!
Everyone was stunned, this power is too overbearing!
San'er stared at his swollen deer eyes bigger than duck eggs: "Oh my god, it's amazing, how much is this thing, can I afford it?"
Deng Xiao laughed and said, "If you can afford it, you won't be able to use it. Only people who have evolved through the natural force of wind can use it."
Li Dao'an and Huo Bai were also shocked by the power of Cheng Tianbi Wind Cannon.Although they are now teammates fighting side by side, there is always a subtle competition between natural force evolutionists. Even Cheng Tianbi and Shen Changze, who have a pretty good relationship, can't get rid of this consciousness. This is the relationship between the strong and the strong. The former mutual taboo.
At this time, the three of Shen Changze flew back from a distance, all in a panic, their hair was messed up like weeds, there were many small wounds on their faces and bodies, and there were even some blood holes on their wings. Zhao Zixiang had completely turned into a wing. The 7-meter-long giant vulture has a lot of blood on its feathers.
Huo Bai called out, "Brother Zhao, are you alright?"
Zhao Zixiang said: "I can't die."
Li Dao'an yelled: "Ah Bai, take a detour!"
As soon as Huo Bai turned his head, he saw a big wild boar about his size swimming in front of him. He quickly and flexibly changed his direction, and San'er, who was following him, couldn't brake in time, and rushed forward at once. The hoof had already been inserted into the swamp that had not been hardened by Li Dao'an, and he screamed in fright. Li Dao'an quickly hardened that part of the swamp, and San'er retreated. If Abu hadn't braked in time, he would have rolled into the swamp with San'er went.
Huo Bai immediately said: "Commander, I'm sorry."
Deng Xiao said angrily, "Who are you going to say sorry to?" He was almost thrown off San'er's back just now, even though he was rough-skinned and thick-skinned, he didn't want to fall into the wild boar cesspool.
Huo Bai said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry."
Zhao Zixiang circled in the sky, swooped down, and grabbed the wild boar's eyes with his huge and sharp claws. The wild boar's eyelids were obviously much thinner than other places, and Zhao Zixiang scratched it and let out a mournful howl.At this time, the sound of a machine gun rang out. No matter how rough the wild boar was, it couldn't withstand the 120 rounds of bullets per second fired by the machine gun. It was blown off its head, and Zhao Zixiang flew up in shock.
Deng Xiao laughed excitedly: "This gun is too domineering."
Zhuang Yao pointed to a wild boar charging towards Abu and shouted: "There is another one over there!" Although Abu was much larger than the wild boar, once he collided with it, Abu would definitely lose, because wild boars are inherently stronger than other animals. It can hit even more, and if it is added with a run-up, it can lift Abu up completely.
Cheng Tianbi flew over, and chopped off his head with a wind blade. He chopped steel plates in the underground training ground for two months. No matter how hard the wild boar skin was, it was no match for metal. The big rough-haired wild boar was split in half by him. .
Shen Changze and Al also joined the ranks of the wild boar battle.
Cong Xia shouted: "Quickly get out of here, Officer Li consumes too much energy!"
When Huo Bai heard this, he ran forward with all his strength, and they rushed past the herd of wild boars in this way, and reached the opposite bank that was not spread by the tremella swamp.
After stepping on the real land, they ran wildly and ran for five kilometers in one breath. They stopped panting after making sure that there were no wild boars chasing after them.
Abu was so tired that he fell to the ground, and San'er even lay down directly.
Cong Xia had lingering fears: "That swamp is too evil, why do white fungus bloom in such a dirty and smelly place?"
San'er said dejectedly: "Ghost knows, this forest really changes every day. I thought I knew it well, but I couldn't keep up with its changing pace."
Cong Xia comforted him and said, "Don't say that, without your familiarity with this forest, we would suffer even more."
Huo Bai didn't rest on his back like Abu and San'er. Instead, he checked Li Dao'an's condition immediately. Seeing that Li Dao'an was pale and his breathing was slow, he said worriedly, "Commander? Are you okay? Are you running out of energy?" ?”
Li Dao'an glanced at Cong Xia: "Fortunately, not yet."
Cong Xia remained calm, Li Dao'ai is a smart person, and a smart person will keep secrets, because now he is still silently sending energy to Li Dao'ai, with immediate benefits, why bother with the truth.
It was thanks to Li Dao'an that they could get through the swamp this time, otherwise they would have to meet the wild boar on the ground, risking being pushed into the swamp, and having a fierce battle.
Cong Xia replenished most of Li Dao'an's energy, and repaired the injuries of Zhao Zixiang and others.
Zhuang Yao said with some regret: "I really want to take some tremella back to study it, it looks very interesting."
"Tremella." Deng Xiao said with a smile, "I took it!"
Zhuang Yao was surprised: "You took it? When?"
"When Brother Cheng was frying wild boar, I grabbed a stuffed plant and put it in the bag. Tremella pear soup is very refreshing in summer. This tremella looks so beautiful, so it must be delicious." Deng Xiao said, starting from the machine gun. He grabbed something from the leather case and proudly displayed it, "Look..."
Everyone's eyes widened, Zhuang Yao said: "Throw it away!"
Deng Xiao turned his head to look, and was immediately stunned. The white fungus balls turned blood red at some point!The petals are layered on top of each other, delicate and charming, really beautiful, but no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a good thing.
Deng Xiao waved his hands and wanted to throw it away, but the white fungus suddenly stretched out all the petals and shrank suddenly. A large group of white fungus wrapped Deng Xiao's forearm instantly, and the blood-red petals seemed to pierce into his crotch. The skin, his entire forearm suddenly turned red.Deng Xiao yelled in horror, "Ahhhhhhhhh what the hell—"
The accident happened so suddenly, Shen Changze rushed up, one hand turned into a dragon blood man's scaly claws, grabbed Deng Xiao's arm, grabbed the white fungus and licked it down, but he only licked off a few thin layers. Thin petals, those soft jelly-like petals fell to the ground, and the soil immediately made a sizzling sound, and soon turned dark red.Shen Changze looked at his hands, and the skin was corroded a little.
Those white fungus were melting into Deng Xiao's arms as if they were alive, and there was no way to stop them.
Zhuang Yao made a decisive decision: "Chop off your arm."
Deng Xiao's face was distorted: "Don't——"
"Chopped!"
Cheng Tianbi patted his shoulder: "It will hurt a little."
"Wait a moment!"
This call was not made by Deng Xiao, but by Cong Xia.
Deng Xiao's eyes were full of tears: "Brother Cong, save me."
Cong Xia looked anxiously at the white fungus that kept climbing up Deng Xiao's forearm: "How is your neurotoxoid concentration?"
"Poisoning ordinary people is no problem."
"I will help you secrete more toxins. See if you can fight them off by yourself. If you fail, you will really have to chop off your arm."
Deng Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "Try it."
Cong Xia transformed the Cambrian energy into water energy and injected it into Deng Xiao's body. After finding a poisonous gland under his armpit, he poured the energy into it. The poisonous gland began to produce highly poisonous at an accelerated rate. Deng Xiao controlled the toxin to spread to his arm. Until I ran into those blood-red white fungus.
The two toxins began to attack each other crazily, and there was severe pain in his arm. He had the illusion that his arm was going to explode in a second. He gritted his teeth and endured it. No matter how painful it was, it should not be as good as being cut off and growing back pain.Finally, he couldn't help shouting: "Ah, it hurts!"
Cheng Tianbi patted him on the shoulder: "Hold it, or..." He gestured his arm with his hand, and Deng Xiao shut up immediately in fright.
The pain and the sense of crisis prompted Deng Xiao to desperately secrete toxins, the secretion level was three times stronger than usual, the white fungus was finally forced to retreat steadily, and was slowly forced out of the body, the white fungus flesh like jelly was released from Deng Xiao's arm. The top was peeled off, fell to the ground, and was completely burned by Shen Changze.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Deng Xiao felt as if he had been pardoned.
Cong Xia said helplessly, "Do you still dare to touch things indiscriminately in the future?"
Deng Xiao pouted dejectedly.
Zhuang Yao said: "It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, has the level of toxins in the body increased?"
"Yes, several poisonous glands secrete a lot of toxins."
"Very well, your atavism process has progressed a step further, stick out your tongue and show me."
Deng Xiao stuck out a pink tongue.
Zhuang Yao glared at him: "Are you an idiot, who wants to look at your human tongue!"
Deng Xiao's tongue froze in the air, and he retracted it aggrievedly. After a while, a snake-like tongue protruded from his mouth, at least 15 centimeters long, and blue-purple in color.Zhuang Yao took out the utensils from his carry-on bag, scraped off the coating of his tongue: "Okay."
The tongue snapped back into his mouth, and Deng Xiao laughed.
Zhuang Yao rolled his eyes, "Smile, you almost lost your arm."
Deng Xiao glanced at the charred white fungus, showing a rather regretful expression.
Li Dao'an grabbed it from the air, and the soil under the white fungus flew into his hands as if being sucked up: "The soil has been eroded by the white fungus. I'm afraid this place will turn into a swamp after a while."
Zhuang Yao dug some soil and half-burned white fungus into the container: "Go back and study it."
San'er looked at the sky: "Let's go, we are only ten kilometers away from Devil Pine."
Cheng Tianbi asked: "What else might you encounter?"
"Anything is possible."
Everyone speeded up unconsciously.
It's a pity that the sky didn't come true. After advancing six or seven kilometers, they ran into a group of monkeys.Those monkeys were very big, swinging between the tall and thick branches, grinning fiercely.
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "Don't pay attention to them, go at full speed."
A monkey swung over from the tree, flung its fangs and paws at Zhuang Yao on Abu's head, and before it touched Zhuang Yao, Abu slapped it away with his paw, and yelled at the monkeys at the same time.
Abu's voice was very loud, and the monkeys, not to be outdone, yelled even louder, but no monkeys rushed forward again.Just jumping quickly among the bushes, following them closely, unable to get rid of them for a while.
Suddenly, a black object was thrown towards the top of Abu's head, and Abu slapped it away without thinking. When everyone looked carefully, it turned out to be a pine cone as big as a bucket!
The monkeys screamed excitedly one after another, and the pine cones hit them one after another. The small ones were as big as basketballs, and the big ones were like exercise balls.
There are so many monkeys that everyone is overwhelmed.
"Damn it, these dead monkeys!" Liu Fengyu shot at the monkeys with his liquid gun, but the pine leaves were too thick and the monkeys were fast. He shot for a long time, but none of them were shot. The monkeys made faces at him vigorously and danced. The ground demonstration made him choked up.
Deng Xiao picked up the machine gun, and the dense rain of bullets finally took effect, and several monkeys howled and fell from the tree.
Cheng Tianbi's wind cannons and wind blades took turns to go into battle, Tang Yanqiu's arrows shuttled through the dense forest without fail, Shen Changze flew into the air and threw fireballs into the monkeys, Al and Zhao Zixiang followed closely behind with submachine guns .
When a pine cone fell towards Huo Bai, the soil on the ground jumped up two meters, and a solid earth wall was erected out of thin air.
A group of black shadows attacked Abu again, and Abu waved his paw again. Cong Xia felt abnormal energy fluctuations from the black shadow. He instantly strengthened his eyesight and took a closer look: "Abu, don't—"
It was too late, Abu shattered the black shadow with one paw, and immediately, a large group of finger-long bumblebees buzzed out.
These monkeys actually threw a hornet's nest at them!
The bumblebee rushed towards Abu fearlessly.Cong Xia pushed Zhuang Yao under her body, hugged her head with her clothes, and lay on Abu, not daring to move.
Deng Xiao cursed: "These monkeys are really wicked!"
Liu Fengyu's arm turned into huge bright red petals, blocking the way of the wasps like a wall, and the wasps stuck to the petals one after another, like a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and were instantly digested.
Shen Changze flew over and breathed fire at the hornet colony, killing many of them at once.
They wiped out the hornet swarm quickly, and the monkeys also suffered heavy casualties, and gradually fled in all directions.
Abu got several stings on his face, and rubbed his mouth against his chest while running, looking funny and pitiful.
Another crisis has passed, and everyone is filled with resentment, desperately wanting to scold their mothers.Ever since they entered this ghost forest, they have been constantly attacked and harassed in various ways. Although they didn't pose much threat, every time someone was injured and everyone was exhausted.
"Devil pine!" San'er shouted suddenly.
Far ahead, there appeared an invisible wall.After they formally entered the forest, they couldn't see the devil pine anymore, because the trees were too tall and covered the sky. Now they were very close to each other, so close that they could directly see the torso of the devil pine with a diameter of one thousand meters.
Cong Xia's heart beat wildly, and the devil pine was just ahead, what would happen to them?Can you get out alive?
The three four-legged animals ran at the fastest speed, especially Huo Bai, whose speed was as fast as a golden lightning.
They entered the area with a radius of 500 meters from the devil pine. Sure enough, as San'er said, there was no tall tree here, and only short weeds grew on the fertile black soil. All the nutrients were absorbed by the devil pine.
There is a brown curtain wall in front of you. You can't see the top when you look up, and you can't see the edges from the left and right. It is so big that it is suffocating.
The surroundings are so quiet that one can hear each other's breathing, and there are dangers everywhere.The energy emitted by the devil pine is a hundred times stronger than any creature they have ever perceived.Looking up, the tree trunk towered into the sky, majestic and huge, and everyone was in awe. They were once again shocked by this sacred tree.
San'er whispered: "I brought you here..." But he hesitated to speak the next words.
Cong Xia looked at him, "San'er, what's wrong with you?"
San'er smiled wryly and said: "Actually, I decided to bring you in, and I have no plan to go back. The ancestors of our village have lived in the Xiaoxing'an Mountains for generations, and the devil pine continues to spread. Within half a year, we will all be homeless, so I am It came in with the determination to die, I hope you can stop it."
Deng Xiao looked up at the big pine tree, and murmured, "Stop it...?"
How to stop it?Facing ultra life forms, they are so tiny.
Zhuang Yao said: "Someone is watching us, do you feel it?"
Everyone felt it carefully, and there really was a feeling of being watched secretly.
Zhuang Yao raised his head and said loudly: "Mr. Songshu, we are from the National Academy of Sciences, can you see us?"
The immature voice echoed heavily in the forest.
After waiting for a while, there was no response. Zhuang Yao continued to shout: "Mr. Songshu, you once spoke when we dispatched a reconnaissance plane. This proves that you have the ability to communicate. Are you willing to communicate with us? The local people and ecology have a huge impact, and if you expand endlessly, it is not a good thing for yourself."
Zhuang Yao could feel the brain waves of the devil pine, and its auditory nerve was sending out weak receiving signals. The devil pine was listening to him, but it didn't respond.
Tang Yanqiu said: "It didn't hear it at all."
"I heard it. Its brain waves are very strange, and the five sensory nerves are gathered far away. For example, the visual nerve is very close to us, and the auditory nerve is far away from us. This may be related to its size, but it is also possible that its five sensory nerves were blocked. For example, the eyesight is working and the brain is sleeping, so the hearing is also falling asleep, let's wake it up."
"Wake up? That's easy." Huo Bai stood up impatiently and took a deep breath.
Everyone covered their ears, Zhuang Yao said: "Don't, this is too..."
Huo Bai uttered a lion's roar that resounded through the sky, and the surrounding woods formed a natural sound wall, creating a huge echo. The roar immediately resounded through the entire forest, startling countless birds and beasts.
The echoes dissipated, and everyone looked at the Devil Pine warily.Just like Zhuang Yao said, the ancestor of the tree was sleeping, and Huo Bai woke him up with a yell. The ancestor was not happy, and [-] million rainstorm pine needles fell down, and they would not directly become sieves.
After waiting for half a minute, the devil pine didn't respond.
Cong Xia blinked: "Is it useless?"
"like……"
Zhuang Yao's expression became serious: "No, its auditory nerve emits a stronger wavelength."
Everyone started to beat their hearts, not knowing what was waiting for them.
"It's really noisy." A deep, deep voice suddenly sounded, the voice circled the tree three times, and the lingering sound continued.
Everyone took a big step back in fright, even Abu felt nervous, and his tail stood up.
"It's really noisy." The voice spoke again, and began to ask and answer: "Eat it, should you eat it?"
Cong Xia was so frightened that her calves were a little weak, she ate... what?
"Can't eat it? Why? Can't children eat it? Humans are so troublesome." The voice sighed.
Zhuang Yao's voice was an octave lower than before, and he said cautiously: "Mr. Songshu, have you seen us?"
To be honest, it was the first time for everyone to see Zhuang Yao talking to people with such a respectful attitude... no, talking to anything, it turns out that smart people know the times.
"Are you talking to me? Why am I talking to you?"
"Since you have language skills, isn't it a pity not to speak?"
"Why is it a pity? I don't need to speak human words. Why am I talking to you again? It's better to eat it. Although it's not nutritious, it's really noisy. Why don't you let me eat it?"
Cold sweat broke out on Zhuang Yao's forehead: "Mr. Songshu, who are you talking to?"
"Not with you?"
Everyone is embarrassing.They have imagined countless scenarios of coming into contact with the Devil Pine head-on, all of which are full of dangers and filled with the shadow of death. Although they are not free from the threat of death now, is this tree too inexplicable, with a dual personality?
Cong Xia whispered: "Is it because its human consciousness hasn't disappeared yet?"
Zhuang Yao nodded: "It is possible."
"Human consciousness? I'm not human, although after I ate a human, he kept talking in my head, which was really noisy." A huge head outline slowly emerged from the tree trunk, and finally formed a clear picture The wooden face of a young man, surprisingly handsome.The face lowered its eyes and looked at them.
Everyone was so nervous that they didn't dare to breathe.
"Huh?" The face suddenly made a puzzled expression, and his eyes fell on Cong Xia.
Cong Xia's heart skipped a beat in fright.
The face suddenly protruded from the tree trunk, and a thick branch was connected behind the face, stretching towards Cong Xia.
Cheng Tianbi collapsed in one step, Zhuang Yao grabbed him and motioned him not to move.
The big wooden face with a diameter of more than [-] meters stretched out in front of Cong Xia before stopping. The thick-looking eyelids blinked lightly, and the eyes without pupils looked straight at Cong Xia. Cong Xia trembled and remained motionless. Dare to move.
Devil Song looked at it for a while, then suddenly said, "I know you."
"Ah? Yes, yes."
"You often pour water and tea on me."
"...That is, watering, fertilizing, fertilizing for you."
Gui Guisong frowned and thought for a while: "No, you are too lazy to go to the toilet and pour the overnight tea into my soil."
"No! Absolutely not!" Cong Xia was so anxious that he almost bit his tongue, "It's all fresh, it's for your health, really."
Devil Song tilted his head: "Oh, you did water me and prune the branches."
Cong Xia nodded desperately.
"What are you doing here? I'm not going back into that thing called a flowerpot."
Cong Xiahan said: "I didn't come to ask you to return the flower pot." He didn't expect that the pine tree had a memory.
"Oh." Devil Song retracted his face, closed his eyes, and said to himself, "Don't make noise, don't make noise."
Zhuang Yao asked, "Is the human being you ate still alive in his brain?"
Devil Song replied: "He's always thinking about human things, it's really annoying... Did you bring anything that humans eat?"
"Bring it."
"give me."
Zhuang Yao said: "When he misses human food, you also want to eat it, don't you?"
Devil Song frowned: "You are so noisy."
Deng Xiao untied a bundle of dried meat from Abu's back: "How do you want to eat it?"
"Throw it on the ground."
Deng Xiao followed suit.
The ground slowly sank, and a big hand made of dead branches stretched out from the ground, grabbed the dried meat and dragged it into the soil, where it disappeared.
Everyone was secretly startled.The ground is actually full of devil pine roots. Not only is the sky unsafe, but there are also traps all over the ground. It is easy for the devil pine to kill them.
"It's finally not so noisy." Devil Song looked at everyone, "Humans, tell me the purpose of your presence in my territory."
Zhuang Yao said: "Mr. Songshu, why did you come here from Yunnan all the way?"
Devil Pine yawned: "Shouldn't pine trees live here? Humans told me."
"You want to... live here?"
"Otherwise, where are we going? It's cool here, the soil is good, and there are countless other people of the same kind. It would be more perfect if you don't have you human beings who are overwhelmed and always harassing me." Devil Song frowned, "Don't make noise, I don't need you to tell me."
Cong Xia said cautiously: "Has the human's self-awareness not disappeared?"
Devil Song looked at him: "You mean, human self-awareness can disappear?"
"In some heterogeneous species, the self-awareness of one party will disappear, but the situation of each species is different."
The devil showed a thoughtful expression: "No, he never disappeared, how to make him disappear... Shut up, you are too annoying, if I knew how to make you disappear, I would have done it already, so you won't disappear Yes, stop arguing!"
Cong Xia said embarrassedly: "I don't know either." Even if he knew, he wouldn't say it.
Zhuang Yao asked a key question: "Mr. Songshu, are you planning to stay here for the rest of your life and never go anywhere?"
The devil said lazily, "No."
"So, do you want to keep growing like this?"
The devil pine seemed a little impatient: "Are human beings afraid that I will encroach on their land? It's ridiculous. When did this land become yours? Besides, it's very cold up there. I don't want to grow any more, but I can't stop. I have any solution."
"Is this why you chose to grow horizontally? Can you evolve on your own?"
"Ah."
"Do you want to stop? We have done a lot of experiments. Evolution is irreversible. The ultimate goal of evolution is self-destruction. Your evolution is too fast."
"Destruction? What do you mean?"
Zhuang Yao described their experiments, but he didn't tell Devil Pine that they only did animal experiments, and the plants were too large to be tested.
Devil Song thought for a while: "You mean, do I explode too?"
"Most likely."
"Why do I trust you?"
"We have a lot of experimental videos. If you want to see them, I have them on my companions outside the forest."
Devil Song glanced at him: "No need, kid, you haven't answered my question, why you came here."
"I want to stop your evolution because it's not good for you or for the humans around you."
"How do you want to stop it?"
Zhuang Yao swallowed, and said cautiously: "Give me your puppet jade."
Devil Song's face slowly stretched out in front of Zhuang Yao: "What is puppet jade?"
"A shard of black transparent jade."
Devil Song's eyes widened suddenly, a giant hand came out from the ground and grabbed Zhuang Yao.
Cheng Tianbi jumped up, holding an invisible wind blade in his hand, and slashed at the giant hand formed by twisted branches. The fierce wind cut off the "wrist" with a diameter of more than one meter, and Zhuang Yao fell down. go.
Abu jumped up suddenly, opened his mouth to enclose Zhuang Yao, Tang Yanqiu flew up, and hugged Zhuang Yao one step faster than it.However, in the next second, a thicker branch came towards Tang Yanqiu with tens of thousands of sharp pine needles.
Li Dao'an instantly formed a huge earthen wall in front of the two of them, and forcibly took this heavy blow.The pine needles more than ten centimeters long penetrated the soil, and the emerald green and dense pine needles were only two or three centimeters away from them, looking cold and scary.
The devil pine couldn't take a single blow, a few branches shook lightly, and countless pine needles fell from the tree like rain. Looking up, the pine needles covered the sky and the sun, making people stand upright, and they had nowhere to go. hide!
Cheng Tianbi shouted: "Shen Changze!"
The two have cooperated many times, and they have a tacit understanding. They skillfully and quickly weave a huge net with wind and fire. The pine needles were burned to ashes in pieces, but there were too many pine needles, and many escaped the fire net. , go down.
Li Dao'an let out a low cry, rolled up the soil under his feet, and built a thick protective wall over their heads again. The sound of "swish, swish, swish" was endless, and in the blink of an eye, the protective wall seemed to have a layer of green hair.
Devil Song wanted to attack, but suddenly said angrily: "They did it first." At the same time, his movements also slowed down.
Zhuang Yao shouted: "Enough, stop!"
Everyone stopped attacking and watched the devil pine warily.
The devil pine struggled for a long time, and finally took back the huge branch, and said angrily: "Don't be in my head!"
