Lost Xiaonanzhou Group

Chapter 41: Flowers Blooming Under the Pear Tree and Sword Tree
Xu time,

In the world, it is dark early, but the sky is still bright here.

From Maoshi to the present, the nine low-level warriors traveled nearly 200 miles, and they were exhausted when they arrived at the address of the temporary shelter marked in the task book.

The leader of the nine soldiers was a soldier surnamed Chen in his forties, because he had been in the crypt for several years, and the rest of the soldiers affectionately called him "Old Chen".

Lao Chen took a short breath, took out a military compass from his leather bag, explored the spot for a week, and then went forward to report to Lianlian:
"Report to the chief, confirm that this place is the target location in the mission book."

Lian Lian looked up at the sky, calculated the time in his mind, and couldn't help sighing:

"Okay, Old Chen, let's fix it on the spot for three hours, and start construction tomorrow when it's ugly."

Lao Chen called the other eight low-ranking warriors and soldiers to discuss it first, and then assigned soldiers to fetch shovels, picks and other simple digging tools from the ice field raft.

When the people gathered, Lao Chen first drew a rough area on the hard ground with a shovel, and then they carried shovels, picks and other digging tools, and dug in groups of two.

Seeing that Lei Ming and Han Yuan were both puzzled, Lian Guan hurriedly explained:
"After all, they are low-level fighters, and they cannot sleep with their bodies exposed to the surface like I did in the cave environment. Of course, when the hurricane comes, I will have to find a way to hide my body."

Sure enough, with the joint efforts of Lao Chen and the two low-level warriors, the first hole was dug quickly.It's only five feet deep, and the bottom of the pouch is less than a foot in radius.Old Chen cleaned up the pit first, and then tied a piece of animal skin with ropes to the two corners of the top of the cave and brazed it firmly. He said hello:
"Three adults, come over and try to see if it suits you?"

Coherently jumped down into the pit, tried to meditate in it, stretched out his hand to test the height of the leather ceiling, stood up and said with a smile

"Old Chen, I think it's pretty good. But, don't worry about the three of us. Take care of yourself first. Take a good rest today and work hard tomorrow."

After speaking, Lian Lian jumped out of the pit, made a gesture, and the three of them went to find a place to discuss.

After walking to a leeward spot fifty paces away, he sighed coherently:

"It's really not easy for the low-level warriors in the burrow. I think they dug out the shelter we lived in before."

Lei Ming smiled and said: "What are these bigwigs in the cave thinking? They don't want to bring ordinary people into the cave to survive!"

Han Yuan and Lianlian both laughed.

Coherently following Lei Ming's topic, he said: "That's not possible, the project is too difficult, unless the entire crypt can be filled with the kind of series of transport roads we saw, and finally the large and small shelters can be connected in one go. Dungeon. However, even if it is to prepare for the future battle of the Nether Tide in the human world, is this possible and meaningful? At present, I think that the pragmatic approach is: let low-level warriors have room to survive in the cave, Let our high-level warriors have an extra guarantee for temporary refuge in the catacombs in the face of extremely harsh environments."

Lei Ming curled his lips and said: "No wonder the master said: Humans are animals that live in groups. For the humble survival of the group, they are busy and calculating all day long. Damn, what are you busy with! It's really boring. Fortunately, I am a warrior queen. When Lao Tzu is a martial artist of the seventh rank, he will be able to fly as high as the sky."

Lian Guan immediately glared and said, "Lei Ming, if you are so out of touch and talk nonsense regardless of the overall situation, I will let you go."

Lei Ming quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't talk, don't talk, what do you think will happen next?"

Han Yuan also interjected: "Yes, coherent, what shall we do next? I also feel a little boring!"

Coherently asked: "Boring? The temporary shelter is built in the crypt, which is extremely useful for our high-level warriors. You don't deny it."

Neither Lei Ming nor Han Yuan made a sound, and Lei Ming secretly said: "It's useless, everyone has cultivated to this level, and the five senses are not bad. Whoever has nothing to do will find it difficult to find pleasure in the [-]th-level hurricane wall that knows the danger! "

Coherent ignored the two of them, and continued to explain: "Although the temporary shelter is not as complicated as the construction of the shelter on the central axis, I have observed these days and concluded that there are several construction principles. Of course, if there is something wrong You two can also add.

[-]. Build at least one per [-] hectares.

[-]. There are surface and underground simple structures capable of resisting [-]-level windbreak beacon towers.

[-]. The site selection is usually in a natural sheltered place, such as the white hills and hunting grounds we have experienced before.

[-]. It is best to have a water source nearby.

[-]. The building materials of the shelter can be obtained locally. "

Han Yuan hurriedly said: "Before I waited anxiously, Lei Ming and I circled around a hundred miles away. There is indeed a water source fifteen miles to the northwest. As for the building materials you mentioned, what is that? ghost?"

Coherent replied angrily: "Yes, I'm tired of talking to you two, I'll just get on with the task. We are now less than [-] miles away from the Dark Forest, and the ice field here only sees moss lichens, sporadic willows, fairy trees, etc. The low shrubs are different, and the edge of the dark forest has a name: the forest of thorn pear and sword trees. As for the trunks of the hundred pear and sword trees, how to bring them back is a matter for the two of you to consider."

"okay!"

Lei Ming and Han Yuan ran northward.

Before half a cup of tea, Han Yuan quietly turned around, lifted the animal skin ceiling of a hole, woke up the sleepy old Chen in the hole, and whispered something in a low voice.After Lao Chen climbed into the ice field raft and took out a few tools, Han Yuan left happily.Coherent, who was meditating in a leeward place, smiled when he saw this:

"These two really want to save face and suffer."

Seeing that Han Yuan really took several tools for logging and sawing trees, Lei Ming said triumphantly:

"This coherence is getting worse and worse. If you don't learn from the good ones, he just wants to learn from them. If you don't talk long-windedly, you will also save the key points. Fortunately..."

The two looked at each other, couldn't help laughing, and didn't stay any longer, this time they really ran towards the dark forest.

With the foot strength of two people, fifty miles is not too far.

Not long after, the dark forest got closer and closer.

Gradually, the two couldn't help but stop and looked up.

Just like what Han Yuan once sighed when he watched the dark forest from a distance:

What kind of power can create such a group of towering giant trees.

Looking from here, the entire dark forest is like a stretching mountain range, which can be divided into three sections: high, middle and low.

The middle is the most massive, and it is a gray evil spirit that is so thick that it cannot be dissolved. Sometimes it is as majestic as a mountain, and sometimes it is steeped in rocks and hills.

Above it are the tops of towering giant trees rushing out of the ashes, their branches are sharp, and they all pierce into the sky like antlers.

After all, he retracted the astonishment as if looking up, and then looked at the dark forest, which was extremely far-reaching.

From the light-colored ice field formed by the nearest layer of moss and lichen, the eyes shift to a section of gray low shrubs, and then to a dark gray thorny jungle, and then there is a dark and deep dark forest like a giant cave. up...

It can be described as a layer of color and an outline, until finally both the color and the outline turned into deep black, blending into one body into the depths of the tumbling evil spirit.

"Is this the Dark Forest?"

Before Han Yuan's words fell, he heard a flash of lightning tearing from the very distant sky, followed by rumbling thunder, and the wind was surging for a while, as if the sky had darkened.

Lei Ming replied calmly: "We are still at the edge of the dark forest, and we still have five miles to enter it. It's a pity that my silver kite is still small, so it can't come here."

The two were thinking about each other, but neither of them stopped at the moment.

Soon, they walked to the dark gray thorny forest, and when they got closer, they realized that these thorny thorns were actually the pear and sword trees they were looking for.

I saw the tree, the thick and thin branches of the wine glass exuded a metallic luster, the whole body was gray and black without a single leaf, the branches were densely covered with barbed thorns, and some of the thorns bore worm-shaped fruits the size of a little finger. It is the "Insect Fruit" described in the "Illustrated Book of Catacomb Items Exchanged for Military Merit", and ten pieces can be exchanged for one military merit.

In addition, what is even more surprising is that near the root of the thorn tree, a small flower with sixteen white yellow stamens grows. This white flower radiates outward around the center of the gray-black thorn tree, circle by circle Arranged clockwise is very strange.

Lei Ming approached, knocked on the tree trunk with a short knife that he carried with him, and made a thumping sound, the sound was simple and simple, Lei Ming frowned and said:

"Actually, it takes a long time for a tree trunk as thick as a wine glass to grow in a high-cold ice field like this in the world, but the crypt..."

Lei Ming looked up at the towering giant trees in the dark forest, and continued: "Everything is uncertain, and the rules may not be the same as in the world. I always feel that the growth years of these pear and sword trees may not have the imagined history. Jiu Jiu, let me try first to see if this guy is tough or not."

While speaking, Lei Ming withdrew his short knife, took out a simple knife used by low-level warriors, and chopped it off casually. The sound of "珰" echoed in the woods, and he only cut a gap in the trunk. The thorn pear tree was chopped off, but it was a pity that the blade of Pu Dao had a gap the size of a grain of rice.

"I'll try!"

Han Yuan drew out the Spring Equinox Corpse God Halberd, swung the halberd, and a very fierce cold light flashed across the ground, and the pear sword tree was cut off in response.

Lei Ming immediately applauded from the sidelines.

Han Yuan chopped off three trees in a row, looked down at the edge of the halberd, and was as sharp as before, but he was reluctant to use the halberd as a tool for cutting trees after all.Han Yuan said: "Lei Ming, let's use the hand saw that Lao Chen gave us to work, come on! Let's see who moves faster."

"Yeah, we've become lumberjacks."

He said so, but Lei Ming was also reluctant to use the dagger given by his master to cut wood, so in the dense thorny forest, the sound of "slowly" sawing wood was soon heard.

Half an hour later, the two of them used up three saw blades each, and finally cut down one hundred pear sword trees.

Han Yuan wiped the sweat that had condensed into frost on his forehead, and thought: "Sawing wood is really exquisite. The force is much different from that of shooting a gun, and it is also interesting."

After the two of them got the ropes they had prepared and tied up the sawn pear and sword trees, they planned to return.

At this time, I heard a long sound of "Wa" coming from the depths of the dark forest, and the sixteen petals of white flowers that had been trampled to pieces all psychically danced in place like dandelions, followed by another "Wa" ", the sound seems to be getting closer.

The voice was extremely familiar, and Han Yuan's heart tightened, and he immediately said:
"I remembered, damn it, this is a fan, we have to get out of here quickly."

While talking, Han Yuan and Lei Ming tied the ropes on their shoulders, each dragged the boss with a bundle of pear and sword trees on their backs, and ran away.

At this moment and here, with only the two of them, they really don't want to fight against the weird and unpredictable gang of dogs.
