The Return of Cambrian Period
Chapter 37
After recuperating for a week, they recovered. In fact, their physical injuries have already healed. What needs to be recovered is physical and mental energy, especially the latter. Only time can heal the terrifying shadow that Wen Yuan and his party have left on everyone, although no one wants to admit it. I am afraid.
Ironically, they are going back to Wen Yuan again today, in order to become stronger.
Ever since they came to Xuanming City, they hadn't seen Rong Lan and Chu Xingzhou very much. He almost didn't leave the house to eat; Chu Xingzhou didn't know what he was busy with, but his red mastiff, Dorji, roared energetically every day, and from time to time he could see its fiery figure running across the yard and on the street .
A few days later, Duoji, who was lonely and hyperactive, began to try to get close to other mutant animals, but because of his impatient personality and fierce appearance, he was always rejected or even hostile. It has calmed down a lot. Although it still likes Bai Ling the most, it can get along with Dorje, and can share the meat Dorji catches every day - everyone somewhat doubts Abu's purpose.
Regarding this point, Zhuang Yao's reaction was very proud: "As expected of my cat."
Deng Xiao also praised Abu: "Our Abu is smart, so he doesn't need to hunt by himself."
Cong Xia nodded with a smile: "Abu's IQ has at least doubled, and he knows how to make friends, it's incredible."
Tang Yanqiu asked in puzzlement, "Why does Abu like Bai Ling?"
Liu Fengyu narrowed his eyes: "Is it beautiful?"
"what?"
"Beautiful people are always attracted to each other." Liu Fengyu flipped his hair, "If you are ugly, I will not be friends with you."
Cong Xia said helplessly: "Brother Liu, you seemed to have no other choice at that time."
Liu Fengyu snorted softly: "This is the arrangement of fate."
Tang Yanqiu said solemnly: "Three inches under the skin are bones, how can you judge a person by appearance."
Liu Fengyu laughed and said, "I just judge people by their appearance, otherwise I would fall in love with you."
Tang Yanqiu was taken aback, his face darkened, he turned and left.
"Hey, idiot, I'm just kidding..." He quickly chased after him, "Tang Yanqiu!"
Zhuang Yao curled his lips: "I'm so stupid." After speaking, he continued to direct people to pack their luggage.
Deng Xiao shook his head: "Brother Liu, you don't plan to change your cheap talk."
Cong Xia smiled and said, "It can't be changed."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Abu likes Bai Ling, probably because of the similar fur color. He hasn't seen the same kind since the end of the world. Maybe he has a better impression of animals with similar fur color."
Deng Xiao pouted: "It seems that Abu is too lonely."
Cong Xia rubbed his chin: "It's possible, Abu is an adult, but he doesn't have a suitable female cat..."
Abu lay quietly on the side, looking at them with purple eyes without blinking, his tail flicked back and forth, as if he was waiting for them to finish talking and go to play with him.
Deng Xiao sat on Abu's paw, tucked his body into the fur comfortably, and sang a lullaby with incomplete tone, and Abu licked his head.
Packing their bags, they set off.
In addition to Cheng Tianbi and the other six, there are many high-level mutants accompanying them. No one wants to miss the opportunity to improve their cultivation speed. They are willing to take risks.
There is also a familiar face in the group - Yi Nan, a white fox alien. They are always on guard against these two brothers.
Three days later, they came to a small county town near Wenyuan, which was still [-] kilometers away from the nightmarish city center, so it was relatively safe.They found a relatively well-preserved hotel to stay in, and the supplies for the next few months will be provided by Xuanming City and Guangming City.
As soon as they put down their luggage, the natural force evolutionist and several high-level mutants went to the city center. Mr. Sun took Zhuang Yao and Tang Tingzhi back to the laboratory of Guangming City, while the others stayed here to practice.
Time passed in anxiety and anticipation.
Half a month later, Shen Changze and Tang Yanqiu reached the third-order critical point.
Unsurprisingly, Shen Changze became elemental, and the color of the flame became whiter. When he advanced, the tent prepared for him was burned to ashes in an instant. When he turned into a golden and white flame, the human form was faintly visible in it At that time, it is really like a god descending to the realm, and the power shakes the Quartet.
After Tang Yanqiu broke through the third level, he has a complete biological radar capability, and the effective range reaches a radius of 68 meters. Within this range, any creature, no matter how it hides energy fluctuations or even hides its body, will be naked///naked/// Naked in front of him, when he expands the range of biological radar to synchronize with the range of his own arrows, even if he closes his eyes, the world will have no dead ends. In some cases, he will be more deadly than natural evolution.
The next advanced ones were Liu Fengyu and Yao Qianjiang.
After Liu Fengyu advanced, the smell of Rafflesia changed drastically, from the original stench to a strange fragrance. In short, it still made people feel dizzy and nauseated after smelling it. Liu Fengyu felt mixed feelings about this change.In addition, the corrosiveness of the digestive juice has also increased a lot, and the petals have become larger and tougher than before.
Yao Qianjiang's advancement is also very smooth.When his body turned into a transparent gel, Cong Xia felt like he was watching a high-tech movie. I have to say that Yao Qianjiang was in a beautiful and powerful state at that time.He looked down at his transparent body floating in water waves. Although the facial features formed by the condensed water were colorless, his upturned lips were enough to express joy.
The third group who broke through the third level were Deng Xiao and Xiao Zhou.
The third-level Deng Xiao, whose body has increased by [-] centimeters after transformation, looks taller and stronger, and the wrinkled skin on the surface of the skin is thicker and tougher, just like a dinosaur revived, whether it is venom, crawling ability, speed of movement or The attack power has improved significantly, and he even successfully returned to his ancestors to reveal the camouflage that he has been training hard but with poor results.When he fell shirtless in the snow, his skin gradually merged with the pure white snow. At first glance, it was hard to distinguish with the naked eye. Of course, this fool was so happy that he was so cold that he hibernated.
Xiao Zhou's process of breaking through to the third level is more dangerous. If Cong Xia hadn't been there, he might explode and die.He's gotten bigger and stronger after the upgrade, but there's no noticeable change in his abilities.
Animal xenomorphs are the most domineering in the early stages of mutation because of their natural physical advantages, but they also have to try their luck. For example, a tiger xenomorph can easily kill a natural force evolution with the same level of evolution in the early stage, but if a sparrow xenomorph , there is no other ability except flying, so the later development of animal xenomorphs is also limited.
During this period, some people broke through to the second or third level one after another. Because of Cong Xia, the 50.00% mortality rate dropped to zero when they entered the level.
Two months later, Cong Xia also reached a critical moment.
After Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao got the news, they all rushed back. Cong Xia was different from others, because no one could help him. He was in a coma for several days last time, so everyone was very nervous.
Seeing everyone by his side, Cong Xia was very moved. In fact, he experienced more excitement than nervousness. Last time he advanced, he researched the energy armor in Gu Yuli. I don’t know what he will gain this time. What.
In the beginning, it was not much different from when he broke through to the second level, because it was an active advancement, and everything was under his control.After a long time, the energy in his body has been running tepidly, and the energy core has never responded. Gradually, he felt that his whole body was immersed in warm water, and his consciousness became more and more sinking. His brain was still thinking, But the other senses stopped working, he couldn't hear, smell, or feel the outside world, which was exactly the same as last time, so he wasn't nervous.
Time flowed quietly, and he was pulled into the world of ancient jade again. The difference was that this time he did not see the familiar green light and Chinese characters. The world was pitch black, and he could not see anything, no, it should be Said that there is nothing here, he even wondered if he was in Gu Yuli.
He "walked" in the dark for a long time, and the more he walked, the more flustered he became. This was completely different from the previous situation, and he began to be afraid.
Suddenly, an old voice sounded without warning: "You are here."
Cong Xia was taken aback, and asked, "I, I'm here? Who are you?"
The old voice sighed: "It's here, it's finally here."
This voice was exactly the same as the voice he heard when he first got the ancient jade!
Cong Xia shouted: "Senior, who are you? What's wrong with this world, what is this piece of jade? Please tell me!"
"You are finally here, and you have come to the origin of everything. You will have answers to the questions in your heart."
"Where is the origin? Is it a restricted area? Is there an answer to the end of the world? Is there a way to stop the end of the world?"
"Everything is at the origin, waiting for you."
"What is there in Siyuan? If you know, tell me something, I don't want to die in vain, senior!"
"It's where it all started," the voice repeated.
Cong Xia suddenly realized that this voice was not talking to him, but just a piece of retained information, maybe because he came here, broke through the third level, and triggered a certain "organ", so Gu Yu gave him a reminder to let him go " origin".And the so-called "origin" must be a restricted area.
Is there an answer to the end of the world in the restricted area?Will there finally be an answer to everything in this ridiculous world? !
Cong Xia suddenly opened his eyes.
After waking up, he realized that he had been unconscious for another three days this time.When he said the "harvest" this time, there was silence.This trip to the restricted area, what they have to face is probably beyond imagination.
From the end of the world to the present, they have verified some truths through many channels and information, but everyone has a kind of helplessness that is about to touch the core, but can't really touch it for a long time.If there is no ancient jade, they will regard the end of the world as a natural disaster, but the existence of ancient jade let them know that the truth is far more than that. secret.As the victims, but also the group of people who are closest to the truth, they feel the anger and powerlessness of being played between applause.
Cong Xia thought of the billions of people who died innocently, and thought of the mysterious puppet jade that was like a time bomb in Cheng Tianbi's head until now, and he felt something stuck in his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
After resting for two days, he regained his physical strength, but he became a little taciturn, often hiding in the house with talismans and not going out for a whole day.
After breaking through the third level, the energy reserve in his body has increased a lot, and when studying ancient jade, his brain is obviously much clearer than before.He deeply felt that relying on himself to provide energy for everyone was too much of a burden. No matter how advanced his energy core was, other people's demand for energy would also increase. This was not a long-term solution.He wanted to find a jade talisman that could store energy in advance like an energy-storing jade talisman, and could directly act on other people like an energy armor. Only big will do.
With this in mind, he began to search in the ancient jade, and finally found the right thing - the basic element jade talisman.This kind of jade talisman is actually an upgraded version of the energy storage talisman. Like the energy storage talisman, it can store various energies. The difference is that the energy storage talisman can only be absorbed by him, and this basic jade talisman can be filled with energy. He releases it at the right time, as long as the released energy is consistent with the energy attribute of the received biological body, it is equivalent to installing a water valve on someone else's body that he controls the switch.
Cong Xia was ecstatic, and quickly tried to make a few.After breaking through to the third level, his control over energy went up to a higher level. It took much less time to research and make jade charms than before. Take the energy armor as an example. At first it took him two weeks to make one, and later it was a One week and three days, it only takes one hour now, and it only took him half a day for these few basic element jade charms.
He took two kinds of jade charms, water and wood, and planned to go downstairs to find someone to experiment.There were a lot of people in the lounge, except for those who went to Golmud to practice, most of the rest were there. Shan Ming was squatting on the ground with a cigarette in his mouth and his sleeves in his mouth. There were two messy things piled up at his feet, including smoke, bacon, and bullets. Waiting, and surrounded by the crowd are Tang Yanqiu and Deng Xiao, who are shirtless and showing their muscular upper bodies. Number: "450 six///, 450 seven..."
Deng Xiao gasped and said, "Brother Tang, aren't you tired?"
Tang Yanqiu said in a deep voice, "It's okay."
Zhuang Yao said sarcastic words: "He still lets you, you will lose."
Deng Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "It's not fair, brother Tang's arm is for drawing a bow."
Zhuang Yao said disdainfully: "Knowing that you are better than me, idiot."
Cong Xia was surprised: "What is this for fun? Didn't you go to Wenyuan with Tianbi?"
Shan Ming waved to him: "Come, place your bet."
Cong Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he touched his pocket, and one piece of jade fell out of his hand.
Shan Ming picked up the small piece of jade: "What is this?"
"good stuff."
Shan Ming made a bet casually.
Zhuang Yao glanced at him: "Did you come up with something new?"
"Well. Is Tianbi gone? Why are they still there?"
"I took their bird to transport supplies, and I won't be back until later."
"Then this is..." Cong Xia looked at the two people who were sweating profusely, especially Deng Xiao, with a grim expression.
Zhuang Yao shrugged and said, "Tang Yanqiu is doing push-ups, this idiot insists on comparing with him."
When Liu Fengyu counted to 520 one, Deng Xiao couldn't hold on any longer. He lay down on the ground with a "bang" sound and did not move.
Cong Xia was taken aback, and quickly helped him up: "Xiao Deng, are you okay?"
Deng Xiao said weakly: "I'm exhausted..."
Cong Xia patted his face and said with a smile, "Brother Cong, can I make you milk tea?"
Deng Xiao grabbed his hand and said sadly, "It must be served with cake."
Shan Ming yelled: "The booth on my left is a bet loser, whoever wins can take it, whoever grabs it." After speaking, he quickly moved away.A group of people rushed forward to grab things, and the house was in a panic.
Tang Yanqiu also stopped, Zhuang Yao stood up from him in a happy mood, licked the ice cream and squatted in front of Deng Xiao, without saying a word, just looked at him with a smile.
Deng Xiao let out a "hum", and hid away resentfully to wipe away his sweat.
"I'm going, what did I grab?" Xiao Zhou held the jade piece in his hand and looked at it curiously.
Cong Xia took the jade piece and said with a smile: "It's useful." He put the basic water element jade talisman in Deng Xiao's hand: "Are you consuming a lot of energy now?"
"Fortunately, what I consume is mainly physical strength."
"Then tell me how you feel."
Deng Xiao nodded, and the others looked over curiously.
Cong Xia urged the jade talisman to release water energy, and Deng Xiao showed a surprised expression.
"How about it?"
"Energy is replenished."
Cong Xia said happily: "Great, it really works."
Zhuang Yao said: "What's so special about this jade talisman?"
Cong Xia explained the function of the basic jade talisman, Zhuang Yaoxi said: "This thing can save you a lot of time and energy."
"Yes, this jade talisman only needs a little energy to activate it. As long as you have done enough preparations, the future battles will not be too embarrassing."
"How fast is the production?"
"It's not fast yet, it will be fine after you get familiar with it."
Zhuang Yao said: "Very good. After going to the restricted area, we must ensure that each natural force evolutionist is equipped with a jade charm that can fully charge his body twice."
Cong Xia nodded: "Okay." That's a big project.
"Mr. Sun also has some good news. We finally got in touch with Beijing on the rainy night before yesterday. Although the signal between the two sides was delayed for as long as 6 minutes and the connection was disconnected soon, we still told the most important situation. It’s just that it is impossible to determine how much information has been passed on, and I hope that Professor Cong can receive useful information and take action as soon as possible.”
Cong Xia sighed: "There is only one month left..."
Liu Fengyu said: "Yes, there is only one month left, but I don't think I'm ready yet."
Tang Yanqiu said in a deep voice, "But we have no way out."
Cong Xia suddenly remembered something: "Zhuang Yao, when will you be able to advance?"
"At least it will take a month. Whether I can advance before going to the restricted area depends on my workload during this time."
Cong Xia said seriously: "You should put this matter first."
Zhuang Yao nodded: "I have my own arrangements."
Deng Xiao yawned and said coquettishly, "Brother Cong, milk tea."
In the last half month of the countdown, everyone became more and more anxious. In view of Golmud's experience, they were all prepared to go and never return.
Unexpectedly, they suddenly received a piece of good news—Li Daoyi had entered Qinghai, and he flew in directly in a transport helicopter with a lot of weapons and supplies.
This news is really exciting. Li Daoyi not only brought a strong fighting force, but also brought the supplies they most urgently need now, which is a timely help.
The plane stopped in Xining, and then flew to Xuanming City with Zhuang Yao and others.When Li Daoyi walked out of the cabin, Cong Xia was moved for no reason. After all, it was the first time in half a year that he saw people from "outside", which proved that they had not been abandoned by the world.
"Officer Li!" Cong Xia rushed forward and grabbed his hand firmly.
Li Dao'ai has always been calm and introverted, and he is very reliable at first glance. He said with a light smile: "You have worked hard."
Cong Xia said excitedly: "I didn't expect to see you again, I didn't expect my second uncle to send you here."
Li Dao'an said: "Actually, Professor Cong wanted me to come, but he never made up his mind. He was afraid that I would be like you, and there would be no news of me once I went. You can't experience it in it, because you haven't returned for a long time, and many people are afraid. I started to get anxious, and the atmosphere in the city became more and more depressing. This time he sent me, the most important reason is that they received a message from Zhuang Yao, and then Zhou Fenglan and Myron Barbot went to Siberia to help the Russians find puppet jade I went, the situation in Beijing is relatively stable now, so I can come.”
Cong Xia said: "Officer Li, you don't know how much we need foreign aid now, we are almost running out of bullets."
Li Dao'an smiled and said: "So I brought a lot." He then sighed softly: "I really regret not insisting on coming with you at the beginning. I heard that many people have broken through the third level."
Cong Xia comforted: "You don't have to worry. When we get the puppet jade and remove the barrier, Qinghai can come in and out freely. Then you will have plenty of time to practice."
Li Dao'an nodded with a smile.
The arrival of Li Dao'ai boosted the morale of everyone, especially Chu Xingzhou, who has the same energy attribute. A battle that gathers eight natural force evolutions will be unprecedentedly exciting.
On the second day after Li Dao'an arrived in Xuanming City, Wu You and Dai Kuilin came back from Golmud, and they both reached the critical point of the third level.Li Daoyi watched their progress throughout.
The moment Wu You advanced, the surrounding temperature dropped by more than 20 degrees in a few seconds, making those who were close to him shivering. The human-shaped ice cubes can flexibly rotate at the joints, and the fist is bigger than a car. It seems that a single punch can knock a building into the air, just like the ice and snow giants in the western magical world.
Wu You looked at his body and couldn't help laughing. Young Master Chen spit out the smoke into the snow, turned around and was about to enter the house, but Wu You suddenly grabbed Young Master Chen's "tiny" body Grab it by the waist.
Young Master Chen said angrily, "Why are you so nervous?"
Wu You put Chen Shao on his shoulder: "Let you see the scenery from a high place."
Young Master Chen sat on Wu You's eighty-nine-story-high shoulders with some trepidation. He wanted to get angry at first, but when he looked down at the vast white world, he suddenly fell silent.
This threat of absolute force is more effective than any words.
Dacqueline's advancement is no doubt the most gentle and moving. Her body has turned into a green wood element. Within a radius of more than 200 meters, clumps of green plants and yellow, white, blue and red fields suddenly appeared on the land covered with ice and snow. Flowers are dotted among them, making people miss the vitality of spring and summer.
During the advanced stage, her bodyguard Maxim stood aside with a dark face the whole time. Everyone thought that this strong man would suddenly turn into a white bear and growl.When Dacqueline was about to regain her human form, he wrapped her in the fur that he had prepared earlier, and carried her back to the house.
Cong Xia felt as if he saw something unreasonable just now, but he didn't realize what was wrong for a moment.
Li Daohe said honestly, "I'm really envious."
Cong Xia joked, "Officer Li, do you envy such a strong bodyguard?"
Li Dao'an smiled and said, "You know what I envy."
Cong Xia patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Wu You and Dai Kuilin will return to Golmud tomorrow, you can go with them, although the time is short, it will definitely help you, don't worry too much, you The evolution of the same attribute is very powerful, and the cooperation between the two of you is absolutely amazing."
Li Dao'an nodded: "I can see him tomorrow, Chu Xingzhou..."
The next day, Li Daoyi went to Golmud with Wu You and Dai Kuilin. Of course, Li Daoyi has not been idle for more than half a year, but only half a year, practicing outside and in Qinghai has already put him and other natural power evolution people A big gap has been widened. Although Li Dao'ai has a stable personality, he is also a person with a high spirit, so it is naturally uncomfortable to fall behind others.
Before leaving, everyone came back one after another.
In the past three months, they have achieved their goal. Not only did the five natural force evolutionists break through the third level, but more than [-] people advanced during this period. It’s a short distance, but their gains during this period are no less than that of others. They made the most important contact with Beijing, improved their weapons, and analyzed the evolution of Golmud’s mutant animals. From many aspects, they improved the combat effectiveness of the entire team. Armed again.
When they gathered in Xuanming City again, they looked completely new compared to their disheveled appearance three months ago!
The transport helicopter brought by Li Dao'an finally prevented them from riding a big bear, big dog, and big cat over the snowy mountains to the restricted area like the natives. They flew over in batches.
The restricted area is located in the north of the Taldin Desert on Provincial Highway 303, in this unknown mountain range south of Dongtai Jiner Lake. Some should be called rift valleys, and the Jinel River Basin in Dongtai has also changed lanes. They can only experience it by themselves.
The helicopter found a suitable terrain and landed. Some big cracks appeared in the originally flat desert area. The 303 Provincial Highway that once crossed the entire Golmud from east to west has disappeared.
After the plane door opened, the big guys who had curled up for a long time all rushed out of the cabin impatiently.
There is no snow, no people here, except for them, there are no other creatures in sight at a glance, some are just endless yellow sand, and the mountains that are visible to the naked eye in the distance are covered with white snow. In awe, compared to the whole world, they are so small.
Dorje is an eight-month-old puppy, although it is almost twelve tons, in its dog life, it is the first time to see the desert, which is different from the wonders of the ice and snow world, it is very exciting, It runs and rolls happily in the desert, scraping the sand all over the sky.
After Chu Xingzhou drank it, it immediately jumped back obediently.
Deng Xiao said happily: "This place is much warmer than Xuanming City."
Tang Tingzhi said: "It's not necessarily the case on the snow mountain."
"Are we already within the bounds of the restricted area?"
"Not yet, you have to cross the provincial road to enter the restricted area."
Mr. Sun said: "Let's go, we must reach the foot of the mountain before dark."
Including the people brought by Li Daoyi, the team has nearly a hundred people, and there are more than 50 mutated animals alone. The scale is really not small.
In the desert, there was only the sound of wind and sand and their heavy footsteps. No one spoke. The closer you got to the restricted area, the more obvious the oppression of energy became. The air seemed to become sticky because of this, making it difficult to breathe.
After walking more than ten kilometers, they encountered the first ground fissure, which was about ten meters wide. Li Daoyi waved his hand and built a solid sand bridge.
During the next journey, they encountered more than a dozen such large and small ground fissures, the widest of which was more than 30 meters wide, and the entire land was riddled with holes.After stepping into the restricted area, these scars in the desert, like a rift in their hearts, "swish" braving the cold wind.
Liu Fengyu said: "Just now I looked at the snow-capped mountains, they seemed quite close, but I walked so far."
Cong Xia said: "That's right, I've been walking for more than four hours, Zhuang Yao, you said that Rong Lan and Chu Xingzhou couldn't find any living things, is it because they all hid in the mountains?"
Zhuang Yao said: "It's possible, but if you imagine Rong Lan's speed, there is almost no creature in the world faster than him. It doesn't take him much time to go around here, but he doesn't see anything. It is impossible for the creature to know that he is coming and hide in advance, and there is no reason to hide. If this is really a creature, it may only be hidden underground. This is the only reasonable guess we have so far."
Tang Yanqiu looked around: "The restricted area is so quiet...it makes people more nervous."
Tang Yanqiu was not the only one who thought this way, many people were looking around, as if they felt that something should come out to "greet" them, such as a group of yaks rushing out when they first arrived in Golmud.
However, there was nothing, just rolling yellow sand and solemn snow-capped mountains.
In the afternoon, they walked to the foot of the snow-capped mountain. After resting, eating and drinking, they began to climb the snow-capped mountain.
The endless yellow sand just now was replaced by white snow and tall trees. The trees here are taller and stronger than the trees in the devil pine forest. The closest ones will be 70 to [-] meters apart. It seems that it is relatively dry here, and it is not easy for trees to grow.
"Strange, what kind of tree is this?" Mr. Sun touched the trunk of one of the trees. "How can this kind of plant grow in the desert? I don't know it at all."
Tang Tingzhi also said: "Although I have no special research on plants, this tree is really strange. Its trunk, branches and leaves have the characteristics of herbaceous plants, but its appearance is woody plants."
Cong Xia said: "Maybe it's a mutated herb?"
Zhuang Yao said: "It's possible, we've seen so many mutated plants outside, and we've only seen plants grow and grow constantly, but we haven't seen herbaceous plants turn into woody plants, not even Golmud. Unique to the restricted area?"
Cong Xia rubbed his chin and said, "The herbaceous plants should be very dense, but these trees grow too sparsely."
Daiquilin rode over on a white bear, stroked the trunk with her slender fingers, closed her eyes and felt: "It is indeed a herb, although I don't know its Chinese name, it is a kind of life force that is very common in deserts The tenacious plant, I can feel its root system, it eats up all the other plants around it, and the roots of those plants become its roots, so it monopolizes nutrients, grows so big, and those trees are like it, So they are very sparse with each other. But their underground roots are still eating each other, and before long, one tree in between this tree and that tree will die and provide nutrients to the other."
"Devouring the growth of the same kind..." Zhuang Yao looked at the trees thoughtfully.
"It's almost the same as raising Tibetan mastiffs." Deng Xiao said, "I read that in order to breed the most powerful Tibetan mastiffs, a group of young Tibetan mastiffs should be kept in a mastiff pen without food, and let them fight each other. That end is the mastiff king."
A young man from Xuanming City said with a smile: "My family used to raise mastiffs. These are all tricked by buyers to inflate high prices. It may have happened in ancient times. Now a small mastiff is ridiculously expensive. If you raise it well, you can earn more than [-] yuan." , unless there is a special need, how can I be willing to waste it like this."
Another young man said with a smile: "What now? What you said was three years ago. Now? There are small Tibetan mastiffs all over the place. Do you dare to raise them? You will be fine if you don't eat them first, hahahaha."
Cong Xia felt a strange feeling in his heart, which made his chest tight for no reason.It is not surprising that these trees will survive the fittest, just like weeds encroach on the nutrients of the crops, but if this continues, will the entire forest really be like the "Mastiff King", with only one tree left in the end?
Mr. Sun said: "Go ahead, climb over this mountain, and you will almost reach the place."
They continued to move forward, as they expected, the closer they got to the puppet jade, the taller and thicker the trees were, and on the other hand, the farther the distance between trees was, in the process of climbing the mountain, seeing the trees grow bigger and bigger, The longer it grew, the thinner it became. In the end, any tree was more than 300 meters high, and the distance between them was almost two kilometers away. The shock in everyone's hearts could not be described in words.
According to Dacqueline, the roots of these trees are still devouring each other underground, and their roots stretch for several kilometers. Wouldn't it be possible to compete with the devil pine when there is only the last tree left on the mountain? ?
With fewer trees, the field of vision is extremely wide, and the snow has become quite thick. At a glance, it is all white, and the world is so quiet that it makes people panic.
Someone laughed and said: "There is nothing in the restricted area, we are really scaring ourselves for nothing."
Rong Lan said coldly, "Keep your voice down."
The man clicked his tongue and shut up quickly.
Mr. Sun said: "Don't speak loudly, the snow on the mountain is very thick, be careful of avalanches."
Cong Xia's heart suddenly tightened, and a huge energy suddenly appeared without warning, which made him almost unable to breathe, and his face immediately changed.
Many high-level mutants noticed something, and the nerves of the mutant animals were more sensitive than them, so they all stopped and looked around nervously.
"what happened?"
Cong Xia said in a deep voice, "Is there something..."
Suddenly, Dorje roared loudly towards the top of the mountain, the sound resounded through the snow-capped mountains, and there were echoes, which made people's eardrums hurt!As soon as it called, all the mutated animals also called, and the silence of the snow mountain no longer existed.
Chu Xingzhou waved his palm angrily, and directly slapped the ten-ton Duoji to the ground: "Bastard, shut up!"
However, it was too late, the large chunk of snow on the top of the mountain shifted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and everyone watched the snow roll down like waves, rushing and swallowing mountains and rivers.
Mr. Sun yelled, "Run!"
Everyone turned around and ran away.
Although all the people and animals here have a strong physique, no one dares to compete with the avalanche. The top speed of the avalanche can reach [-] kilometers per hour, which is equivalent to the speed of a moving car before the end of the world. Each square meter brings a heavy impact of forty to fifty tons. Think about what it would be like to be hit head-on by a car. There is no creature on earth that can resist such a force.Only by running a little farther, so that the power of the avalanche is almost consumed along the way, can they possibly run back to their lives.
Compared with those running on the ground, those flying in the sky are much superior. They follow the crowd unhurriedly, and are ready to rescue those who may be buried in the snow at any time.
Everyone ran desperately, almost no one dared to look back, chasing after a three or four meter high snow wall was really not fun.After all, they couldn't run through the snow, and after running more than 400 meters, the billowing snow covered them with a "bang".
At a critical moment, Cheng Tianbi and the others erected walls to resist for a while, and the force of the avalanche's impact was transferred to several natural force evolutionists, causing severe pain in their internal organs and vomiting blood.
The moment Chu Xingzhou hit the snow, he lifted a group of people close to him to the sky. This group of people was the happiest and did not suffer any injuries. Others were not so lucky, and some were directly buried alive.
Those who fly in the sky start to pick people from the snow,
Ironically, they are going back to Wen Yuan again today, in order to become stronger.
Ever since they came to Xuanming City, they hadn't seen Rong Lan and Chu Xingzhou very much. He almost didn't leave the house to eat; Chu Xingzhou didn't know what he was busy with, but his red mastiff, Dorji, roared energetically every day, and from time to time he could see its fiery figure running across the yard and on the street .
A few days later, Duoji, who was lonely and hyperactive, began to try to get close to other mutant animals, but because of his impatient personality and fierce appearance, he was always rejected or even hostile. It has calmed down a lot. Although it still likes Bai Ling the most, it can get along with Dorje, and can share the meat Dorji catches every day - everyone somewhat doubts Abu's purpose.
Regarding this point, Zhuang Yao's reaction was very proud: "As expected of my cat."
Deng Xiao also praised Abu: "Our Abu is smart, so he doesn't need to hunt by himself."
Cong Xia nodded with a smile: "Abu's IQ has at least doubled, and he knows how to make friends, it's incredible."
Tang Yanqiu asked in puzzlement, "Why does Abu like Bai Ling?"
Liu Fengyu narrowed his eyes: "Is it beautiful?"
"what?"
"Beautiful people are always attracted to each other." Liu Fengyu flipped his hair, "If you are ugly, I will not be friends with you."
Cong Xia said helplessly: "Brother Liu, you seemed to have no other choice at that time."
Liu Fengyu snorted softly: "This is the arrangement of fate."
Tang Yanqiu said solemnly: "Three inches under the skin are bones, how can you judge a person by appearance."
Liu Fengyu laughed and said, "I just judge people by their appearance, otherwise I would fall in love with you."
Tang Yanqiu was taken aback, his face darkened, he turned and left.
"Hey, idiot, I'm just kidding..." He quickly chased after him, "Tang Yanqiu!"
Zhuang Yao curled his lips: "I'm so stupid." After speaking, he continued to direct people to pack their luggage.
Deng Xiao shook his head: "Brother Liu, you don't plan to change your cheap talk."
Cong Xia smiled and said, "It can't be changed."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Abu likes Bai Ling, probably because of the similar fur color. He hasn't seen the same kind since the end of the world. Maybe he has a better impression of animals with similar fur color."
Deng Xiao pouted: "It seems that Abu is too lonely."
Cong Xia rubbed his chin: "It's possible, Abu is an adult, but he doesn't have a suitable female cat..."
Abu lay quietly on the side, looking at them with purple eyes without blinking, his tail flicked back and forth, as if he was waiting for them to finish talking and go to play with him.
Deng Xiao sat on Abu's paw, tucked his body into the fur comfortably, and sang a lullaby with incomplete tone, and Abu licked his head.
Packing their bags, they set off.
In addition to Cheng Tianbi and the other six, there are many high-level mutants accompanying them. No one wants to miss the opportunity to improve their cultivation speed. They are willing to take risks.
There is also a familiar face in the group - Yi Nan, a white fox alien. They are always on guard against these two brothers.
Three days later, they came to a small county town near Wenyuan, which was still [-] kilometers away from the nightmarish city center, so it was relatively safe.They found a relatively well-preserved hotel to stay in, and the supplies for the next few months will be provided by Xuanming City and Guangming City.
As soon as they put down their luggage, the natural force evolutionist and several high-level mutants went to the city center. Mr. Sun took Zhuang Yao and Tang Tingzhi back to the laboratory of Guangming City, while the others stayed here to practice.
Time passed in anxiety and anticipation.
Half a month later, Shen Changze and Tang Yanqiu reached the third-order critical point.
Unsurprisingly, Shen Changze became elemental, and the color of the flame became whiter. When he advanced, the tent prepared for him was burned to ashes in an instant. When he turned into a golden and white flame, the human form was faintly visible in it At that time, it is really like a god descending to the realm, and the power shakes the Quartet.
After Tang Yanqiu broke through the third level, he has a complete biological radar capability, and the effective range reaches a radius of 68 meters. Within this range, any creature, no matter how it hides energy fluctuations or even hides its body, will be naked///naked/// Naked in front of him, when he expands the range of biological radar to synchronize with the range of his own arrows, even if he closes his eyes, the world will have no dead ends. In some cases, he will be more deadly than natural evolution.
The next advanced ones were Liu Fengyu and Yao Qianjiang.
After Liu Fengyu advanced, the smell of Rafflesia changed drastically, from the original stench to a strange fragrance. In short, it still made people feel dizzy and nauseated after smelling it. Liu Fengyu felt mixed feelings about this change.In addition, the corrosiveness of the digestive juice has also increased a lot, and the petals have become larger and tougher than before.
Yao Qianjiang's advancement is also very smooth.When his body turned into a transparent gel, Cong Xia felt like he was watching a high-tech movie. I have to say that Yao Qianjiang was in a beautiful and powerful state at that time.He looked down at his transparent body floating in water waves. Although the facial features formed by the condensed water were colorless, his upturned lips were enough to express joy.
The third group who broke through the third level were Deng Xiao and Xiao Zhou.
The third-level Deng Xiao, whose body has increased by [-] centimeters after transformation, looks taller and stronger, and the wrinkled skin on the surface of the skin is thicker and tougher, just like a dinosaur revived, whether it is venom, crawling ability, speed of movement or The attack power has improved significantly, and he even successfully returned to his ancestors to reveal the camouflage that he has been training hard but with poor results.When he fell shirtless in the snow, his skin gradually merged with the pure white snow. At first glance, it was hard to distinguish with the naked eye. Of course, this fool was so happy that he was so cold that he hibernated.
Xiao Zhou's process of breaking through to the third level is more dangerous. If Cong Xia hadn't been there, he might explode and die.He's gotten bigger and stronger after the upgrade, but there's no noticeable change in his abilities.
Animal xenomorphs are the most domineering in the early stages of mutation because of their natural physical advantages, but they also have to try their luck. For example, a tiger xenomorph can easily kill a natural force evolution with the same level of evolution in the early stage, but if a sparrow xenomorph , there is no other ability except flying, so the later development of animal xenomorphs is also limited.
During this period, some people broke through to the second or third level one after another. Because of Cong Xia, the 50.00% mortality rate dropped to zero when they entered the level.
Two months later, Cong Xia also reached a critical moment.
After Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao got the news, they all rushed back. Cong Xia was different from others, because no one could help him. He was in a coma for several days last time, so everyone was very nervous.
Seeing everyone by his side, Cong Xia was very moved. In fact, he experienced more excitement than nervousness. Last time he advanced, he researched the energy armor in Gu Yuli. I don’t know what he will gain this time. What.
In the beginning, it was not much different from when he broke through to the second level, because it was an active advancement, and everything was under his control.After a long time, the energy in his body has been running tepidly, and the energy core has never responded. Gradually, he felt that his whole body was immersed in warm water, and his consciousness became more and more sinking. His brain was still thinking, But the other senses stopped working, he couldn't hear, smell, or feel the outside world, which was exactly the same as last time, so he wasn't nervous.
Time flowed quietly, and he was pulled into the world of ancient jade again. The difference was that this time he did not see the familiar green light and Chinese characters. The world was pitch black, and he could not see anything, no, it should be Said that there is nothing here, he even wondered if he was in Gu Yuli.
He "walked" in the dark for a long time, and the more he walked, the more flustered he became. This was completely different from the previous situation, and he began to be afraid.
Suddenly, an old voice sounded without warning: "You are here."
Cong Xia was taken aback, and asked, "I, I'm here? Who are you?"
The old voice sighed: "It's here, it's finally here."
This voice was exactly the same as the voice he heard when he first got the ancient jade!
Cong Xia shouted: "Senior, who are you? What's wrong with this world, what is this piece of jade? Please tell me!"
"You are finally here, and you have come to the origin of everything. You will have answers to the questions in your heart."
"Where is the origin? Is it a restricted area? Is there an answer to the end of the world? Is there a way to stop the end of the world?"
"Everything is at the origin, waiting for you."
"What is there in Siyuan? If you know, tell me something, I don't want to die in vain, senior!"
"It's where it all started," the voice repeated.
Cong Xia suddenly realized that this voice was not talking to him, but just a piece of retained information, maybe because he came here, broke through the third level, and triggered a certain "organ", so Gu Yu gave him a reminder to let him go " origin".And the so-called "origin" must be a restricted area.
Is there an answer to the end of the world in the restricted area?Will there finally be an answer to everything in this ridiculous world? !
Cong Xia suddenly opened his eyes.
After waking up, he realized that he had been unconscious for another three days this time.When he said the "harvest" this time, there was silence.This trip to the restricted area, what they have to face is probably beyond imagination.
From the end of the world to the present, they have verified some truths through many channels and information, but everyone has a kind of helplessness that is about to touch the core, but can't really touch it for a long time.If there is no ancient jade, they will regard the end of the world as a natural disaster, but the existence of ancient jade let them know that the truth is far more than that. secret.As the victims, but also the group of people who are closest to the truth, they feel the anger and powerlessness of being played between applause.
Cong Xia thought of the billions of people who died innocently, and thought of the mysterious puppet jade that was like a time bomb in Cheng Tianbi's head until now, and he felt something stuck in his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
After resting for two days, he regained his physical strength, but he became a little taciturn, often hiding in the house with talismans and not going out for a whole day.
After breaking through the third level, the energy reserve in his body has increased a lot, and when studying ancient jade, his brain is obviously much clearer than before.He deeply felt that relying on himself to provide energy for everyone was too much of a burden. No matter how advanced his energy core was, other people's demand for energy would also increase. This was not a long-term solution.He wanted to find a jade talisman that could store energy in advance like an energy-storing jade talisman, and could directly act on other people like an energy armor. Only big will do.
With this in mind, he began to search in the ancient jade, and finally found the right thing - the basic element jade talisman.This kind of jade talisman is actually an upgraded version of the energy storage talisman. Like the energy storage talisman, it can store various energies. The difference is that the energy storage talisman can only be absorbed by him, and this basic jade talisman can be filled with energy. He releases it at the right time, as long as the released energy is consistent with the energy attribute of the received biological body, it is equivalent to installing a water valve on someone else's body that he controls the switch.
Cong Xia was ecstatic, and quickly tried to make a few.After breaking through to the third level, his control over energy went up to a higher level. It took much less time to research and make jade charms than before. Take the energy armor as an example. At first it took him two weeks to make one, and later it was a One week and three days, it only takes one hour now, and it only took him half a day for these few basic element jade charms.
He took two kinds of jade charms, water and wood, and planned to go downstairs to find someone to experiment.There were a lot of people in the lounge, except for those who went to Golmud to practice, most of the rest were there. Shan Ming was squatting on the ground with a cigarette in his mouth and his sleeves in his mouth. There were two messy things piled up at his feet, including smoke, bacon, and bullets. Waiting, and surrounded by the crowd are Tang Yanqiu and Deng Xiao, who are shirtless and showing their muscular upper bodies. Number: "450 six///, 450 seven..."
Deng Xiao gasped and said, "Brother Tang, aren't you tired?"
Tang Yanqiu said in a deep voice, "It's okay."
Zhuang Yao said sarcastic words: "He still lets you, you will lose."
Deng Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "It's not fair, brother Tang's arm is for drawing a bow."
Zhuang Yao said disdainfully: "Knowing that you are better than me, idiot."
Cong Xia was surprised: "What is this for fun? Didn't you go to Wenyuan with Tianbi?"
Shan Ming waved to him: "Come, place your bet."
Cong Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he touched his pocket, and one piece of jade fell out of his hand.
Shan Ming picked up the small piece of jade: "What is this?"
"good stuff."
Shan Ming made a bet casually.
Zhuang Yao glanced at him: "Did you come up with something new?"
"Well. Is Tianbi gone? Why are they still there?"
"I took their bird to transport supplies, and I won't be back until later."
"Then this is..." Cong Xia looked at the two people who were sweating profusely, especially Deng Xiao, with a grim expression.
Zhuang Yao shrugged and said, "Tang Yanqiu is doing push-ups, this idiot insists on comparing with him."
When Liu Fengyu counted to 520 one, Deng Xiao couldn't hold on any longer. He lay down on the ground with a "bang" sound and did not move.
Cong Xia was taken aback, and quickly helped him up: "Xiao Deng, are you okay?"
Deng Xiao said weakly: "I'm exhausted..."
Cong Xia patted his face and said with a smile, "Brother Cong, can I make you milk tea?"
Deng Xiao grabbed his hand and said sadly, "It must be served with cake."
Shan Ming yelled: "The booth on my left is a bet loser, whoever wins can take it, whoever grabs it." After speaking, he quickly moved away.A group of people rushed forward to grab things, and the house was in a panic.
Tang Yanqiu also stopped, Zhuang Yao stood up from him in a happy mood, licked the ice cream and squatted in front of Deng Xiao, without saying a word, just looked at him with a smile.
Deng Xiao let out a "hum", and hid away resentfully to wipe away his sweat.
"I'm going, what did I grab?" Xiao Zhou held the jade piece in his hand and looked at it curiously.
Cong Xia took the jade piece and said with a smile: "It's useful." He put the basic water element jade talisman in Deng Xiao's hand: "Are you consuming a lot of energy now?"
"Fortunately, what I consume is mainly physical strength."
"Then tell me how you feel."
Deng Xiao nodded, and the others looked over curiously.
Cong Xia urged the jade talisman to release water energy, and Deng Xiao showed a surprised expression.
"How about it?"
"Energy is replenished."
Cong Xia said happily: "Great, it really works."
Zhuang Yao said: "What's so special about this jade talisman?"
Cong Xia explained the function of the basic jade talisman, Zhuang Yaoxi said: "This thing can save you a lot of time and energy."
"Yes, this jade talisman only needs a little energy to activate it. As long as you have done enough preparations, the future battles will not be too embarrassing."
"How fast is the production?"
"It's not fast yet, it will be fine after you get familiar with it."
Zhuang Yao said: "Very good. After going to the restricted area, we must ensure that each natural force evolutionist is equipped with a jade charm that can fully charge his body twice."
Cong Xia nodded: "Okay." That's a big project.
"Mr. Sun also has some good news. We finally got in touch with Beijing on the rainy night before yesterday. Although the signal between the two sides was delayed for as long as 6 minutes and the connection was disconnected soon, we still told the most important situation. It’s just that it is impossible to determine how much information has been passed on, and I hope that Professor Cong can receive useful information and take action as soon as possible.”
Cong Xia sighed: "There is only one month left..."
Liu Fengyu said: "Yes, there is only one month left, but I don't think I'm ready yet."
Tang Yanqiu said in a deep voice, "But we have no way out."
Cong Xia suddenly remembered something: "Zhuang Yao, when will you be able to advance?"
"At least it will take a month. Whether I can advance before going to the restricted area depends on my workload during this time."
Cong Xia said seriously: "You should put this matter first."
Zhuang Yao nodded: "I have my own arrangements."
Deng Xiao yawned and said coquettishly, "Brother Cong, milk tea."
In the last half month of the countdown, everyone became more and more anxious. In view of Golmud's experience, they were all prepared to go and never return.
Unexpectedly, they suddenly received a piece of good news—Li Daoyi had entered Qinghai, and he flew in directly in a transport helicopter with a lot of weapons and supplies.
This news is really exciting. Li Daoyi not only brought a strong fighting force, but also brought the supplies they most urgently need now, which is a timely help.
The plane stopped in Xining, and then flew to Xuanming City with Zhuang Yao and others.When Li Daoyi walked out of the cabin, Cong Xia was moved for no reason. After all, it was the first time in half a year that he saw people from "outside", which proved that they had not been abandoned by the world.
"Officer Li!" Cong Xia rushed forward and grabbed his hand firmly.
Li Dao'ai has always been calm and introverted, and he is very reliable at first glance. He said with a light smile: "You have worked hard."
Cong Xia said excitedly: "I didn't expect to see you again, I didn't expect my second uncle to send you here."
Li Dao'an said: "Actually, Professor Cong wanted me to come, but he never made up his mind. He was afraid that I would be like you, and there would be no news of me once I went. You can't experience it in it, because you haven't returned for a long time, and many people are afraid. I started to get anxious, and the atmosphere in the city became more and more depressing. This time he sent me, the most important reason is that they received a message from Zhuang Yao, and then Zhou Fenglan and Myron Barbot went to Siberia to help the Russians find puppet jade I went, the situation in Beijing is relatively stable now, so I can come.”
Cong Xia said: "Officer Li, you don't know how much we need foreign aid now, we are almost running out of bullets."
Li Dao'an smiled and said: "So I brought a lot." He then sighed softly: "I really regret not insisting on coming with you at the beginning. I heard that many people have broken through the third level."
Cong Xia comforted: "You don't have to worry. When we get the puppet jade and remove the barrier, Qinghai can come in and out freely. Then you will have plenty of time to practice."
Li Dao'an nodded with a smile.
The arrival of Li Dao'ai boosted the morale of everyone, especially Chu Xingzhou, who has the same energy attribute. A battle that gathers eight natural force evolutions will be unprecedentedly exciting.
On the second day after Li Dao'an arrived in Xuanming City, Wu You and Dai Kuilin came back from Golmud, and they both reached the critical point of the third level.Li Daoyi watched their progress throughout.
The moment Wu You advanced, the surrounding temperature dropped by more than 20 degrees in a few seconds, making those who were close to him shivering. The human-shaped ice cubes can flexibly rotate at the joints, and the fist is bigger than a car. It seems that a single punch can knock a building into the air, just like the ice and snow giants in the western magical world.
Wu You looked at his body and couldn't help laughing. Young Master Chen spit out the smoke into the snow, turned around and was about to enter the house, but Wu You suddenly grabbed Young Master Chen's "tiny" body Grab it by the waist.
Young Master Chen said angrily, "Why are you so nervous?"
Wu You put Chen Shao on his shoulder: "Let you see the scenery from a high place."
Young Master Chen sat on Wu You's eighty-nine-story-high shoulders with some trepidation. He wanted to get angry at first, but when he looked down at the vast white world, he suddenly fell silent.
This threat of absolute force is more effective than any words.
Dacqueline's advancement is no doubt the most gentle and moving. Her body has turned into a green wood element. Within a radius of more than 200 meters, clumps of green plants and yellow, white, blue and red fields suddenly appeared on the land covered with ice and snow. Flowers are dotted among them, making people miss the vitality of spring and summer.
During the advanced stage, her bodyguard Maxim stood aside with a dark face the whole time. Everyone thought that this strong man would suddenly turn into a white bear and growl.When Dacqueline was about to regain her human form, he wrapped her in the fur that he had prepared earlier, and carried her back to the house.
Cong Xia felt as if he saw something unreasonable just now, but he didn't realize what was wrong for a moment.
Li Daohe said honestly, "I'm really envious."
Cong Xia joked, "Officer Li, do you envy such a strong bodyguard?"
Li Dao'an smiled and said, "You know what I envy."
Cong Xia patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Wu You and Dai Kuilin will return to Golmud tomorrow, you can go with them, although the time is short, it will definitely help you, don't worry too much, you The evolution of the same attribute is very powerful, and the cooperation between the two of you is absolutely amazing."
Li Dao'an nodded: "I can see him tomorrow, Chu Xingzhou..."
The next day, Li Daoyi went to Golmud with Wu You and Dai Kuilin. Of course, Li Daoyi has not been idle for more than half a year, but only half a year, practicing outside and in Qinghai has already put him and other natural power evolution people A big gap has been widened. Although Li Dao'ai has a stable personality, he is also a person with a high spirit, so it is naturally uncomfortable to fall behind others.
Before leaving, everyone came back one after another.
In the past three months, they have achieved their goal. Not only did the five natural force evolutionists break through the third level, but more than [-] people advanced during this period. It’s a short distance, but their gains during this period are no less than that of others. They made the most important contact with Beijing, improved their weapons, and analyzed the evolution of Golmud’s mutant animals. From many aspects, they improved the combat effectiveness of the entire team. Armed again.
When they gathered in Xuanming City again, they looked completely new compared to their disheveled appearance three months ago!
The transport helicopter brought by Li Dao'an finally prevented them from riding a big bear, big dog, and big cat over the snowy mountains to the restricted area like the natives. They flew over in batches.
The restricted area is located in the north of the Taldin Desert on Provincial Highway 303, in this unknown mountain range south of Dongtai Jiner Lake. Some should be called rift valleys, and the Jinel River Basin in Dongtai has also changed lanes. They can only experience it by themselves.
The helicopter found a suitable terrain and landed. Some big cracks appeared in the originally flat desert area. The 303 Provincial Highway that once crossed the entire Golmud from east to west has disappeared.
After the plane door opened, the big guys who had curled up for a long time all rushed out of the cabin impatiently.
There is no snow, no people here, except for them, there are no other creatures in sight at a glance, some are just endless yellow sand, and the mountains that are visible to the naked eye in the distance are covered with white snow. In awe, compared to the whole world, they are so small.
Dorje is an eight-month-old puppy, although it is almost twelve tons, in its dog life, it is the first time to see the desert, which is different from the wonders of the ice and snow world, it is very exciting, It runs and rolls happily in the desert, scraping the sand all over the sky.
After Chu Xingzhou drank it, it immediately jumped back obediently.
Deng Xiao said happily: "This place is much warmer than Xuanming City."
Tang Tingzhi said: "It's not necessarily the case on the snow mountain."
"Are we already within the bounds of the restricted area?"
"Not yet, you have to cross the provincial road to enter the restricted area."
Mr. Sun said: "Let's go, we must reach the foot of the mountain before dark."
Including the people brought by Li Daoyi, the team has nearly a hundred people, and there are more than 50 mutated animals alone. The scale is really not small.
In the desert, there was only the sound of wind and sand and their heavy footsteps. No one spoke. The closer you got to the restricted area, the more obvious the oppression of energy became. The air seemed to become sticky because of this, making it difficult to breathe.
After walking more than ten kilometers, they encountered the first ground fissure, which was about ten meters wide. Li Daoyi waved his hand and built a solid sand bridge.
During the next journey, they encountered more than a dozen such large and small ground fissures, the widest of which was more than 30 meters wide, and the entire land was riddled with holes.After stepping into the restricted area, these scars in the desert, like a rift in their hearts, "swish" braving the cold wind.
Liu Fengyu said: "Just now I looked at the snow-capped mountains, they seemed quite close, but I walked so far."
Cong Xia said: "That's right, I've been walking for more than four hours, Zhuang Yao, you said that Rong Lan and Chu Xingzhou couldn't find any living things, is it because they all hid in the mountains?"
Zhuang Yao said: "It's possible, but if you imagine Rong Lan's speed, there is almost no creature in the world faster than him. It doesn't take him much time to go around here, but he doesn't see anything. It is impossible for the creature to know that he is coming and hide in advance, and there is no reason to hide. If this is really a creature, it may only be hidden underground. This is the only reasonable guess we have so far."
Tang Yanqiu looked around: "The restricted area is so quiet...it makes people more nervous."
Tang Yanqiu was not the only one who thought this way, many people were looking around, as if they felt that something should come out to "greet" them, such as a group of yaks rushing out when they first arrived in Golmud.
However, there was nothing, just rolling yellow sand and solemn snow-capped mountains.
In the afternoon, they walked to the foot of the snow-capped mountain. After resting, eating and drinking, they began to climb the snow-capped mountain.
The endless yellow sand just now was replaced by white snow and tall trees. The trees here are taller and stronger than the trees in the devil pine forest. The closest ones will be 70 to [-] meters apart. It seems that it is relatively dry here, and it is not easy for trees to grow.
"Strange, what kind of tree is this?" Mr. Sun touched the trunk of one of the trees. "How can this kind of plant grow in the desert? I don't know it at all."
Tang Tingzhi also said: "Although I have no special research on plants, this tree is really strange. Its trunk, branches and leaves have the characteristics of herbaceous plants, but its appearance is woody plants."
Cong Xia said: "Maybe it's a mutated herb?"
Zhuang Yao said: "It's possible, we've seen so many mutated plants outside, and we've only seen plants grow and grow constantly, but we haven't seen herbaceous plants turn into woody plants, not even Golmud. Unique to the restricted area?"
Cong Xia rubbed his chin and said, "The herbaceous plants should be very dense, but these trees grow too sparsely."
Daiquilin rode over on a white bear, stroked the trunk with her slender fingers, closed her eyes and felt: "It is indeed a herb, although I don't know its Chinese name, it is a kind of life force that is very common in deserts The tenacious plant, I can feel its root system, it eats up all the other plants around it, and the roots of those plants become its roots, so it monopolizes nutrients, grows so big, and those trees are like it, So they are very sparse with each other. But their underground roots are still eating each other, and before long, one tree in between this tree and that tree will die and provide nutrients to the other."
"Devouring the growth of the same kind..." Zhuang Yao looked at the trees thoughtfully.
"It's almost the same as raising Tibetan mastiffs." Deng Xiao said, "I read that in order to breed the most powerful Tibetan mastiffs, a group of young Tibetan mastiffs should be kept in a mastiff pen without food, and let them fight each other. That end is the mastiff king."
A young man from Xuanming City said with a smile: "My family used to raise mastiffs. These are all tricked by buyers to inflate high prices. It may have happened in ancient times. Now a small mastiff is ridiculously expensive. If you raise it well, you can earn more than [-] yuan." , unless there is a special need, how can I be willing to waste it like this."
Another young man said with a smile: "What now? What you said was three years ago. Now? There are small Tibetan mastiffs all over the place. Do you dare to raise them? You will be fine if you don't eat them first, hahahaha."
Cong Xia felt a strange feeling in his heart, which made his chest tight for no reason.It is not surprising that these trees will survive the fittest, just like weeds encroach on the nutrients of the crops, but if this continues, will the entire forest really be like the "Mastiff King", with only one tree left in the end?
Mr. Sun said: "Go ahead, climb over this mountain, and you will almost reach the place."
They continued to move forward, as they expected, the closer they got to the puppet jade, the taller and thicker the trees were, and on the other hand, the farther the distance between trees was, in the process of climbing the mountain, seeing the trees grow bigger and bigger, The longer it grew, the thinner it became. In the end, any tree was more than 300 meters high, and the distance between them was almost two kilometers away. The shock in everyone's hearts could not be described in words.
According to Dacqueline, the roots of these trees are still devouring each other underground, and their roots stretch for several kilometers. Wouldn't it be possible to compete with the devil pine when there is only the last tree left on the mountain? ?
With fewer trees, the field of vision is extremely wide, and the snow has become quite thick. At a glance, it is all white, and the world is so quiet that it makes people panic.
Someone laughed and said: "There is nothing in the restricted area, we are really scaring ourselves for nothing."
Rong Lan said coldly, "Keep your voice down."
The man clicked his tongue and shut up quickly.
Mr. Sun said: "Don't speak loudly, the snow on the mountain is very thick, be careful of avalanches."
Cong Xia's heart suddenly tightened, and a huge energy suddenly appeared without warning, which made him almost unable to breathe, and his face immediately changed.
Many high-level mutants noticed something, and the nerves of the mutant animals were more sensitive than them, so they all stopped and looked around nervously.
"what happened?"
Cong Xia said in a deep voice, "Is there something..."
Suddenly, Dorje roared loudly towards the top of the mountain, the sound resounded through the snow-capped mountains, and there were echoes, which made people's eardrums hurt!As soon as it called, all the mutated animals also called, and the silence of the snow mountain no longer existed.
Chu Xingzhou waved his palm angrily, and directly slapped the ten-ton Duoji to the ground: "Bastard, shut up!"
However, it was too late, the large chunk of snow on the top of the mountain shifted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and everyone watched the snow roll down like waves, rushing and swallowing mountains and rivers.
Mr. Sun yelled, "Run!"
Everyone turned around and ran away.
Although all the people and animals here have a strong physique, no one dares to compete with the avalanche. The top speed of the avalanche can reach [-] kilometers per hour, which is equivalent to the speed of a moving car before the end of the world. Each square meter brings a heavy impact of forty to fifty tons. Think about what it would be like to be hit head-on by a car. There is no creature on earth that can resist such a force.Only by running a little farther, so that the power of the avalanche is almost consumed along the way, can they possibly run back to their lives.
Compared with those running on the ground, those flying in the sky are much superior. They follow the crowd unhurriedly, and are ready to rescue those who may be buried in the snow at any time.
Everyone ran desperately, almost no one dared to look back, chasing after a three or four meter high snow wall was really not fun.After all, they couldn't run through the snow, and after running more than 400 meters, the billowing snow covered them with a "bang".
At a critical moment, Cheng Tianbi and the others erected walls to resist for a while, and the force of the avalanche's impact was transferred to several natural force evolutionists, causing severe pain in their internal organs and vomiting blood.
The moment Chu Xingzhou hit the snow, he lifted a group of people close to him to the sky. This group of people was the happiest and did not suffer any injuries. Others were not so lucky, and some were directly buried alive.
Those who fly in the sky start to pick people from the snow,
