Chapter 142: Tropical Forest

Waited until a few people prepared the tent for resting, and Zhou Yuanhang's torches were lit, Li Hao and the four took out the cans, boiled hot water on the fire, and ate by themselves, the goshawk knew that there was no way to integrate into them, so he could only make his own, and after eating, he had nothing to say, and climbed into the hammock and fell asleep.

The next morning, the temperature is still as bad as yesterday, and as the sun rises, the temperature is getting higher and higher, walking on such a road, the goshawk complains, he is engaged in intelligence gathering under the old man in the mountains, and now he actually ran to this wilderness to suffer, he is in the capital more than 400 square meters of big house, there are swimming pools and beautiful women, what a beautiful life, but now he ran to this deep mountain to adventure, not good to eat and sleep, every day in this bush and grass drilled around, if not good at any time to die.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, the temperature is estimated to reach 30 degrees at noon, and the humidity is very large, the heat is abnormal, in such an environment to rush, the water will be lost quickly, so it is necessary to continue to replenish the water, a few people have not much water, they have to go to the low-lying to find a water source to make up for it, after seven and eight turns, a few people came to a waterfall, jumped in and took a good bath, after the shower, a few people went ashore, and saw that the goshawk who went ashore first had been dressed, Like their little wolves, the cats are searching for something on the ground.

Li Hao and a few people went ashore and filled all the kettles, Luo Daxi watched the goshawk crawling around on the ground strangely, to the left and to the right for a while, a little unable to understand what he was doing, and opened his mouth to ask, "Little bird." What are you doing? Don't be a bird and a dog! "Little bird is the name that Luo Daxi just gave to the goshawk, and Luo Daxi is quite proud.

The goshawk didn't pay attention to it, and still searched carefully on the ground for a while before standing up and saying with a serious face: "We have found someone from Xu Jiufeng in Southern Xinjiang." There are ten of them, and it has been two days since the mountain that has been up the stream from here, and we have to hurry. ”

Luo Daxi sounded like a fantasy, and asked strangely, "How do you know?" Did someone of them leave you some message? ”

Goshawk sneered and said, "I'm different from you, I've eaten so much and it's all." You just look at the ground. ”

Luo Daxi heard what the goshawk said, and looked down carefully at his feet. There was nothing on the rocks, the rest of the place was rotten fallen leaves and dead branches, and nothing could be seen. Li Hao, Qiangzi, and Zhou Yuanhang also lowered their heads and observed carefully, but they didn't find anything. The four people raised their heads suspiciously and waited for the goshawk to give an answer, and the goshawk snorted coldly when he saw that these people didn't see anything. Pure Heart wants to teach these boys a lesson. So he said a little sarcastically.

"Look here, although the rotten leaves are soft, but someone will still leave traces after stepping on them, if you can look closely, you will see that there are strings of footprints here, going up from under the stream, according to the recovery of the rotten leaves, you can judge that these people have been passing for two days, and I can also see from the footprints that they are all carrying more than forty pounds of luggage. There is a person who is at least close to two meters tall and weighs more than 230 pounds. is a big man, it is very likely to be the black bear Sun Jun under Xu Jiufeng, this man is extremely large. There is also a person who should be a long-armed monkey Shangguan Feng, who is 1.85 meters tall, but only weighs 120 pounds, you have seen this person's information, in the deep mountains is his home field, and he can walk on the ground in the dense forest. ”

Without waiting for the goshawk to continue, Luo Daxi couldn't help but shout and said: "You don't pretend to be a ghost here, as if you have opened the eyes of the sky, and you want to scare the master!" ”

The goshawk stood up, looked at Luo Daxi and snorted coldly, didn't speak again, packed the luggage and put it on the mule, and walked along the stream to the mountain, Luo Daxi saw the appearance of the goshawk and wanted to go up to argue a few words, but was pulled by Li Hao, and whispered in his ear: "Daxi, what he said is right, if you look closely, I can also find footprints, from the distance of the footprints, it is easy to see the height of this person, and the depth of the imprints can judge a person's weight, this guy called Goshawk is still a little expected, be careful." ”

There is a waterfall in front, there is a drop of about ten meters, there is no way to climb up directly, only a big circle, you can see the traces of human activity very clearly in the front, many rattans are cut off by machetes, the stubble is still new, in such a dense bush, after a vegetation is cut down, it will not take a week to have new branches and leaves to replace it to fall down to make the space, the people in front have just passed two days, so it is still relatively easy to distinguish, see these obvious traces, Luo Daxi really admired the goshawk.

While everyone was trying to hurry, Zhou Yuanhang felt more and more that something was wrong, he looked at the surrounding trees, rocks, weeds, everything was normal, but why did he look a little weird? "Wait, wait." Zhou Yuanhang finally couldn't help it, although he hadn't figured out what was wrong, but this feeling had been there since yesterday, and it had been lingering in his mind, and after a day and a night, this feeling became stronger and stronger, so he had to stop first and see if others had the same feeling.

When the goshawk heard the shout, he stopped and turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" Why stop. Li Hao and the others also stopped, looked back at Zhou Yuanhang, and waited for him to tell the reason.

Zhou Yuanhang stood there, thought about it and didn't know what to say, and saw that several people were staring at him, so he said, "Don't you think it's a little strange?" I always felt weird around me. Li Hao and Qiangzi didn't think about it after hearing this, they looked at each other, as if there was nothing wrong, the goshawk also felt that Zhou Yuanhang was making trouble, so he ignored it, and turned around to hurry, but Luo Daxi spoke: "That's right, I also think it's strange!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the goshawk also stopped, looked at Luo Daxi, wanted to hear what he had to say, and heard Luo Daxi also say that he felt strange, Zhou Yuanhang had some feelings when he saw his comrades, and said excitedly: "Daxi, yes, I just feel strange, but I don't know what's wrong, you talk about it, tell them!" ”

Luo Daxi looked at Zhou Yuanhang, who was excited, and said coldly: "Fatty, you don't know what's wrong?" Temperature, don't you feel hot? What season is this, it's the winter moon, even if it's in the south now, but it should be about ten degrees, how do I feel that there are still about thirty degrees, isn't this strange enough and not obvious enough? ”

Zhou Yuanhang was stunned when he heard Luo Daxi's words, and thought in his heart that it was indeed this problem, but he shouldn't have said this, but he still couldn't think of what it was, the goshawk spat a mouthful, turned around and continued to walk, Luo Daxi looked at the goshawk, and then at Li Hao, and asked Zhou Yuanhang: "I said fat, am I not right?" Don't you think it's a bit strange? ”

Zhou Yuanhang said as he hurried: "That's right, the temperature here is very high, just like near the equator. Speaking of the equator, Zhou Yuanhang's mind lit up, and he suddenly thought of the crux of the problem, and he shouted: "I know, I know where the problem is." ”

"I said fatty, you have a lot of fun, you can say anything quickly, I hope you can say it this time!" The goshawk was a little angry and a little impatient, stopped and yelled at Zhou Yuanhang, Zhou Yuanhang ignored his dissatisfaction, looked around at the surrounding environment and said, "Don't you think it's strange to look at these vegetation?" We are now in Hunan Province, belonging to the subtropical humid monsoon climate, and the vegetation in our mountain forest has obvious characteristics of tropical rainforest, secondary forest and primary forest symbiosis, trees grow in layers, there are shrubs under tall trees, grass under shrubs, layer upon layer, almost every inch of space in nature is utilized. These are unique to tropical forests. ”

Zhou Yuanhang said and walked to a tree beside him, pointed to it and said: "The climbing plants in the tropical forest are extremely rich, especially some lianas are wrapped around the thick trees, climbing and intertwining, across the forest. The high temperature and humidity environment is the most suitable for the growth of epiphytes, you see, this is an epiphytic orchid, and there are bird's nest ferns and various mosses and lichens on it, which grow everywhere on the trunks and branches. You can also see the wonder of 'trees growing on trees and grass growing on leaves'. Isn't it strange that these are all characteristics of tropical forests? Where are we, and where are we in a dimension where these vegetative features shouldn't appear! ”

Li Hao and Qiangzi heard Zhou Yuanhang's words excitedly, and then carefully observed the surrounding trees, they were not as excited as Zhou Yuanhang, although they felt that something was wrong, but they were only a little strange, and they didn't want to ask what would happen to this situation, Luo Daxi said: "Fatty, you're right, this shows that the temperature of TM here is high, this is the evidence!" ”

Goshawk was also a little strange at the moment, but this was not within the scope of his concern, he raised his head and looked around and said: "Very good, young man, you are indeed a good student at school, if you are in school now, you can get a scholarship, but this has nothing to do with me, do you really think that we are here to conduct a plant species survey?" We have to hurry now to catch up with Xu Jiufeng's people, so that we can save your family's lives!" After saying that, he whipped the mule and continued on his way.

"Hey! Hi! Don't you want to know why? Don't you think that's weird? Zhou Yuanhang was a little disappointed, he felt that there would definitely be a problem if he didn't understand the reason and continued to walk into the mountains, but unfortunately no one cared about the reason except himself, and no one even paid attention to it after shouting a few times, so he had to sigh helplessly and follow them tightly to continue his journey.
