Yan Fei did not go back after lunch, but went to the underground lake, and saw with his own eyes that hundreds of tourists had gone to the underground forest, and the rise of the underground forest was already unstoppable. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Let's go, hurry up."

"Otherwise, don't go, Boss Lin has said that there is likely to be danger inside."

"What are you afraid of, so many people have gone, and there are still a few of us? Stop talking nonsense, let's go. ”

Five people passed by Yan Fei, and jumped into the water, these five people were fully equipped, holding flashlights in their hands, and each carrying a large bag on their backs, obviously preparing for a long-term war of resistance.

Yan Fei stayed there until three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were more and more tourists going to the underground forest, according to Yan Fei's estimates, there were at least nearly 10,000 tourists in the underground forest, and they couldn't see them coming out, and there were many tourists entering in an endless stream, Yan Fei shook her head, and just wanted to go back, but stopped, because someone came out of the underground forest.

These are three young people, in their early twenties, Yan Fei vaguely remembered that these three people were the first three people to go to the underground forest, the young people were strong, and they were not too afraid of things, the reason why Yan Fei stopped was because she saw one of her young people holding a fruit in his hand, which was exactly the same as the fruit that Xu Bo picked up.

"Ah, lad." Yan Fei greeted the three of them.

The three young men were obviously much more relaxed after climbing up the passage, and when they heard Yan Fei's voice, one of the young people asked, "Are you calling us?" What's the matter? ”

Yan Fei pointed to the fruit in her hand, "Can you let me see this?" ”

"Oh, well, take a look, but be careful, we managed to get it."

Yan Fei took it carefully, flipped it up and down, it was indeed the fruit that Xu Bo had recovered, and handed it back: "Can you ask if this is from **?" ”

"It's inside, we look at this color very good-looking, we think this should be a rare thing, old man, do you know this thing?"

"It should be the seed or fruit of a tree, did you still have it next to it when you found it?"

"No, it's just this one, it's a seed? I guess it's already broken. ”

"Maybe." Yan Fei gave an ambiguous answer.

"It turned out to be a seed, I thought it was a dinosaur egg."

"I said a long time ago no, how can dinosaur eggs be red."

"What seed is that?"

"What kind of seeds have been bad in the ground for so many years, and you still want to grow them?"

"What should I do, throw it away?"

"Give it to Boss Lin, just use it as a ticket...."The three of them walked away while discussing.

Yan Fei thought about it, followed behind the three of them, and saw that the three of them went straight to the ground, and then really gave the fruit to Orange Orange.

After the three of them left, Yan Fei walked over: "Orange Orange." ”

"Professor Yan, there's one more thing for this." Orange Orange held up the red fruit for Yan Fei to see.

"Well, I don't know what the fruit of this thing is."

While Yan Fei and Orange were studying this fruit, Qiu Bai, who was directing the steel claw to dig a passage underground, heard the words of the tea tree: "Qiu Bai, I remember, it's the flame fruit." ”

"Huh?" Qiu Bai paused, "What flame fruit." ”

"It's the red fruit you showed me in the morning, and someone over there picked it up and gave it to Orange Orange, and then I suddenly thought that this fruit is called the Flame Fruit, a fruit called the Flame Tree, and this Flame Tree is a kind of tree that only grows in magma."

"Oh, it's good to know the name." Qiubai's reaction was a little flat: "Master Li, do you think this is okay?" Do you need to dig again? ”

"It's already possible, but Boss Lin, do you need to measure it, can you go directly to the underground stone house from here?" Da Li looked at the hole dug by the steel claw, and was a little suspicious.

This afternoon, this Lin boss let the steel claw dig the pipe so that Da Li has been very entangled, as if he is digging indiscriminately, just now this Lin boss said that he wants to dig the pipeline from here, and there is an underground stone house underneath, Da Li really didn't believe it, and said that this Lin Qiubai didn't have clairvoyance, how could he see the underground, but Qiubai dug it directly.

"Well, believe me, there's no problem, since this size is okay, then let the steel claw dig down according to this size, by the way, the steel claw is excavated in a zigzag shape, otherwise the masters can't go down." Qiu Bai said something to the steel claw, then walked to the side and asked the tea tree, "By the way, what is that flame tree?" ”

"I thought you didn't care?" The tea ceremony replied.

"How could you not care, weren't you busy just now, tell me about this flame tree, a tree that grows in magma? It's quite unusual. ”

Can trees grow in magma? Qiubai didn't know, anyway, he never thought that plants could grow in magma before, after all, magma is thousands of degrees high, and even iron can melt, let alone trees.

"Actually, I'm not sure if it's a Flame Tree Fruit, because I've heard a friend mention it."

"Alone?"

"No, it's a tree, my friend, where are people, it's all trees."

"Oh, it's over there in Dali, right?"

"Yes, you also know the environment over there, there are many trees, many trees are open, we usually chat, the matter of the flame tree was told to me by a sycamore tree."

"Sycamore trees? Go on. ”

"I haven't seen this plane tree either, I was at the edge of the forest, it should be in the forest, we are far apart, and we can't feel each other, but we can also communicate information by relying on the transmission of trees and trees, it was about tens of thousands of years ago..."

Qiu Bai was dizzy, it was too shocking, this is a matter of tens of thousands of years, Qiu Bai said to himself that he must get used to it in the future, but Qiu Bai immediately reacted: "Mother-in-law, aren't you only over three thousand years old?" How can you still know what happened tens of thousands of years ago? It's too far, isn't it? ”

"I don't know, my friend is the plane tree, it has lived for a long time, it has lived for nearly 10,000 years, and then it has grown old for more than 1,000 years. The sycamore tree is also from the predecessors. ”

Qiubai smacked his mouth, old monsters, all old monsters, tea trees are old monsters, plane trees are also old monsters, they can live for 10,000 years, and the trees are also particular about word of mouth, and the things of tens of thousands of years ago can also be handed down, but they are much stronger than humans, human beings have to check the information or excavate fossils to know the things of tens of thousands of years ago, and look at other people's trees, what is this called, this is called inheritance, passed down from generation to generation: "Then you continue to talk about your things tens of thousands of years ago." ”

"Tens of thousands of years ago, there was a crater in Dali, and the flame tree grew in the crater."

Qiubai waited for a while, and when he saw that the tea tree didn't speak, he asked curiously, "It's over?" ”

"It's over, haven't I finished the introduction?"

"Well, you've only introduced the events of tens of thousands of years in three sentences, why don't you tell me what's the use of the flame tree, and whether you can eat the fruit or something."

"I really don't know about these, and the sycamore tree didn't say anything, but I don't think it should be edible, anyway, then the volcano slowly disappeared, and the flame fruit also disappeared, so I only saw this once, oh yes, according to them, the temperature inside the flame fruit is amazing, you go back in a while and try it with fire, see if it can burn out, if it can be burned out, then it is not a flame fruit, if it can't be burned, it's almost the same."

The team led by Lin Fan and Liu Dawei has not yet settled here, and the steel claw is also working hard, Qiu Bai felt that there was nothing to do for the time being, so he said to Master Li, and at the same time told the steel claw to stop if the digging was finished, and then walked towards the yard.

"Brother, someone sent that kind of red fruit just now, and I put it in the house."

Qiu Bai nodded to Orange Orange and entered the room, the Flame Fruit was placed on the table, and Yan Fei sat on the stool and stared at the Flame Fruit with her cheeks propped up, as if she wanted to see the flowers from above.

"Oh, Qiubai, are you back?"

"Well, what's the matter, this thing is studied?"

"No, I've thought about all the plants, modern prehistory, and I haven't figured out which kind of plant fruit this is, by the way, what about the previous one, I always feel that these two fruits seem to be a little different."

Qiu Bai looked at this flame fruit and felt that it seemed to be a little, so he took out the flame fruit that Xu Bo had sent, put the two flame fruits together, and finally found the difference after a second look.

The flame fruit sent by Xu Bo is darker in color, and the latter one is lighter in color, and the other is that Xu Bo's flame fruit makes the two of them feel alive, but the one in the back is not, it seems to be lifeless, this is purely a feeling.

"This fruit is probably bad."

"Well, it's really bad." This was not said by Qiubai, but by the tea tree to Qiubai with divine thoughts.

"You can feel it, too?" Qiubai asked.

"Why can't you feel it, the flame fruit is also a plant, okay, can't you see if you're dead or not? Can't you humans even distinguish between the living and the dead? ”

"Uh, what should I do if you have a figurative image?"

"The bad one is useless, throw it away, and the other one you roast and try with the fire, if it's a flame fruit, it will sprout."

"Roasting on a fire will sprout?"

"Of course, the Flame Fruit is amazing, otherwise it can grow in a volcano? According to my estimate, the bad flame fruit is bad because it has been left for a long time and the temperature in the fruit is gone. ”

"Okay, I'll try."

"Try it, there are already two flame fruits, and there must be some in the underground forest, even if you try it out and it's not a flame fruit, it's fine." Tea tree instigated.

Qiu Bai thought about it, so he no longer hesitated, hugged the flame fruit and said, "Professor Yan, let's go, let's go out and try this fruit." ”

"How do you try?"

"Roast..."

Yan Fei was speechless: "This is not a potato, don't joke with me." ”

"I'm not kidding, you just come with me."

Yan Fei followed Qiu Bai suspiciously, only to see that Qiu Bai had indeed arrived at the place where the chef was cooking, found a spare stove, and lit the natural gas, and suddenly there was a heat wave, Yan Fei said in surprise: "I said Qiu Bai, do you really want to roast it?" ”

Qiubai didn't talk nonsense at all, he clamped the flame fruit with tongs, fixed it in the stove, and began to roast it, Yan Fei was sweaty, he could only shake his head, this Lin Qiubai is really messy, but if it's baked, it's baked, anyway, I don't know what it is, maybe it can be eaten after it's baked.

"Boss, what's this? Is it an egg? The chef next to him asked.

"Potatoes, red potatoes, I'll see if I can roast them and sprout them."

Well, the chefs around him suddenly collapsed, only heard that potatoes planted in the ground can sprout, and never heard of roasting and sprouting with fire, they all thought Qiubai was joking.

The fire burned for about ten minutes, it is strange to say, the flame fruit is so burning, there is no change at all, even if it is a piece of iron resting on this kind of stove, it is estimated that it will have to change a little, at least it should be red, this flame fruit has not changed at all, during the period Qiubai took it back and tried it with his hands, it was still room temperature, which made Qiubai determine that this fruit is not simple.

After baking for more than ten minutes, Yan Fei suddenly felt a little chilled, and said in her heart, could it be that she felt wrong? The natural gas on the stove was burning brightly, how could it feel cold, took a step forward, but it was even colder, and then I actually found that even the exhaled breath was carrying a white mist, Yan Fei shivered, it was really cold, and subconsciously approached the stove, after all, it was fire.

"Do you feel cold?" Qiubai asked, because he felt it too.

The chef who got closer nodded involuntarily: "Well, it seems to be a little cold, it's weird." ”

"Qiubai, this is indeed a flame fruit, and if you burn it again, it is absorbing the heat of the fire, so you will feel cold." The tea tree said with some excitement: "Do you want to put your hand on the stove and try it, the fire above must not have any temperature, because the heat is all absorbed by the flame fruit, and it should be germinated." ”

Qiu Bai not only didn't try it, but took the flame fruit away from the stove, and when he took it away, everyone suddenly felt hot again, Yan Fei was so close that she was almost burned by the torch. (To be continued.) )
