Chapter 31: Mountaineering
With the rising light of the morning, the pair of dark blue eyes in the distant jungle finally disappeared.
Call~
Xiao Hachi let out a long breath and wiped the sweat on his forehead with soft tentacles, as an octopus, of course Xiao Hachi will not sweat, but he has been with Shen Rui for a long time, plus Xiao Hachi is already smart and has learned a lot of human movements.
Shen Rui slept in the shelter, and Hachi laughed happily.
Suppressing the strange monsters in the jungle didn't dare to approach all night, of course it was hard for Xiao Ba, but when he saw Shen Rui sleeping soundly, he felt that his efforts were not in vain, at least Shen Rui got precious sleep because of Xiao Ba's existence.
After thinking about it, human beings seem to want to eat, Xiao Hachi put the pot on the fire that has been extinguished to heat, the pot is the fish soup that was not eaten last night, and there are instant noodles in the backpack, Shen Rui can use the fish soup to stew instant noodles in the morning to satisfy his hunger.
I have to say that Hachi is too smart, what he learns is like, and what he learns.
In nature, octopuses are the only beings with 10 percent more genetic sequences than humans, and even dolphins, which have always been considered to be the most intelligent in the ocean, are actually much weaker than octopuses in terms of IQ.
And Hachi is obviously not an ordinary octopus, his intelligence is beyond imagination, that is, he can't speak, if Hachi can speak, I'm afraid it will scare the whole world! His wisdom and strong combat effectiveness are definitely at the level of defying the sky!
Soon, Shen Rui woke up, he didn't know that the fierce battle last night happened beside him, seeing that Xiao Ba had already heated the fish soup, he praised Xiao Ba for being smart, and Xiao Ba touched his head embarrassedly while listening to Shen Rui praise himself, his expression was extremely happy.
"What is this?" Shen Rui pointed to a small package on the ground and asked as he packed his things, this package was obviously prepared by Xiao Ba, and it was full of hard pebbles.
Hachi pointed to himself, meaning that these things were mine, and then carried the bag with one tentacle.
He knew that Shen Rui would definitely set off to find Lao Pan and Ye Wuxian today, so he prepared a bag of stones as a throwing weapon early, in terms of melee combat, Xiao Ba's eight long tentacles could open mountains and split stones, and the distance was far away, he could throw stones to attack, this smart little guy thought very clearly about the dangers that might be encountered on the road.
Soon, Shen Rui and Xiaoba packed up the camp, and most of the inconvenient items were buried in the sand pile, and marks were made on them.
Assuming that Lao Pan and Ye Wuxian return here, they can take it out and use it, and Shen Rui also wrote a note explaining where he went, when he would come back, how to get in touch if he couldn't come back in time, etc., these are the basic rules of the team's survival in the wild.
"Alright, let's go, you come to my backpack." Shen Rui said to Xiao Hachi, he deliberately left space in his backpack so that Xiao Hachi could hide in it, after all, it was a sea creature, and it might not be very convenient for Xiao Hachi to move on land.
Who knew that Xiaoba didn't bother to let Shen Rui carry him on his back, shook off the eight tentacles, and slipped into the dense bushes in the distance, climbed to the top of the big tree in one breath, carried a small bag, and waved at Shen Rui!
Shen Rui was also surprised, and then he was overjoyed, happy that Xiaoba was so sensitive on land, assuming that if he was really carrying a hundred or dozens of pounds of Xiaoba, it would definitely be inconvenient to move, and now, Xiaoba not only will not slow down Shen Rui's speed, but even if he is very fast, he can also stand in front for Shen Rui and be a scout!
Shen Rui cheered up and took Xiao Ba all the way towards the mountain, the light was difficult to penetrate through the dense branches and leaves overhead, the atmosphere was a little gloomy and weird, but Shen Rui didn't have much to worry about, after all, Xiao Ba was with him.
The overlord in the sea, Hachi, is now about to become a monkey, eight long and flexible tentacles wrapped around the branches and flicked them gently, and they leaped out of a distance of dozens of meters with a sigh, looking at Hachi's calm appearance, it seems that there is still strength left.
Shen Rui suddenly discovered that Xiao Hachi's body structure was so wonderful, not to mention anything else, just Xiao Ba's long tentacles were not only powerful attack weapons, but could also help him move quickly in various difficult environments.
Smooth rock faces?
It doesn't matter, there are suction cups on the antennae, and Hachi can attach to almost any object.
Thorny?
It doesn't matter, Hachi's tentacles can become harder than steel, and the tentacles wave like **, and he won't be hurt if he splits the thorns.
All in all, as Hachi grows up, he is showing more and more potential as an all-rounder, not only in the sea, but also on the shore!
Now Shen Rui rarely uses spiritual links to control Xiao Ba, because there is no need for it, Xiao Ba is already smart, and he will find ways to solve all kinds of difficulties, not to mention that he is still loyal, and he loyally protects Shen Rui all the way.
Such a little guy Shen Rui really likes it more and more, so it gives him more freedom, and it is very important for Shen Rui to live freely and happily, and the same is true for Xiaoba.
At the same time, because Shen Rui gave Xiao Ba a lot of freedom, treated him as a friend, and never treated him as his own appendage, Xiao Ba became better and better to Shen Rui, more and more loyal, and a virtuous circle of tacit understanding was formed between one person and one octopus.
The mountain road is difficult to walk, around noon, Shen Rui and Xiaoba have climbed the second highest hill outside the main peak, looking down condescendingly, Shen Rui couldn't help frowning, and found that this island seemed to have been reclaimed, and the large hillside on the left hand side was obviously terraced, but because no one cultivated it all year round, it had long been abandoned, overgrown with shrubs and weeds.
There are even some abandoned houses near the beach, built of stone from the hills, which have long since collapsed, leaving only piles of rubble on the foundations.
Shen Rui said to himself: "This island is still inhabited? I wonder if there are still living people on the island? ”
At this moment, except for the high mountain inserted into the sky, the surrounding scenery has been unobstructed by Shen Rui, except for the traces left by those humans, there is no strange place, it seems that if you want to find Lao Pan and Ye Wuxi, you really need to climb that mountain that is thousands of meters high.
Shen Rui decided to take a brief rest here, and then continued to search halfway up the mountain, and if he still couldn't find any traces, he would climb the mountain tomorrow.
Taking advantage of Shen Rui's rest, Xiao Ba scratched his head, as if he suddenly thought of something, and disappeared into the dense forest in a flash.
In terms of speed, in fact, Shen Rui was dragging Hachi back, otherwise he would have gone further with Hachi's ability to move.
Shen Rui ate a few pieces of military dry food, drank a few sips of mountain spring water, and waited for Xiaoba to come, and waited for him to come.
Just when Shen Rui was restless, a black figure suddenly ejected from the dense forest, and the eight-foot tentacles landed steadily beside Shen Rui.
"Where have you been? I'm worried, do you know? Shen Rui complained a little.
Hachi smiled slightly, untied the small bag behind him, took out a small touchscreen book from it and handed it to him, as well as half a Swiss triangle brand white chocolate.
Shen Rui was stunned, this touchscreen electronic book he recognized, it was Ye Wuxian's thing, plus the white chocolate that he had eaten halfway, Shen Rui couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.
Ye Wuxian has the habit of taking notes at any time, once he thinks of something, he will quickly record it in this small book, and this electronic notepad is a professional model produced by Kyocera Company in Japan, which is not only waterproof and drop-proof, but also has a solar cell system, even if it is not charged for a year, it doesn't matter.
Shen Rui hurriedly opened the electronic book, and the cursor was still moving, indicating that Ye Wuxian was making a record at that time, and some changes occurred in the middle of the record that Shen Rui did not understand, and he temporarily left the electronic book and left, so it remained in the state of entry.
As for the text that Ye Wuxian was recording at that time, Shen Rui couldn't help but be shocked when he saw it!
