Chapter 52: Back to Earth

Leaving the anthill, if it was before, Tianlan would definitely leave behind the other ants.

After all, they are completely unfamiliar with the anthill, and with the intricacies of the anthill, it is completely a labyrinth, and they can't get out of it at all with their strength alone.

So they can only follow the ants out of the nest.

But that was the previous situation, and now Tianlan has been able to sense the existence of pheromones, although he doesn't know the meaning of the expression, but he can still roughly guess it.

Creatures such as ants, in order not to get lost, will mark their own smell on the road to facilitate their return to the nest.

Of course, when they leave the nest, they are also marked.

And now what Tianlan has to do is to distinguish the marks left by these out-of-nest ants, and follow these marks, so that they can leave the anthill safely.

Of course, they can also choose to follow the ants, but there is a certain risk in that way.

Besides, they couldn't tell if the ant was leaving the nest and foraging.

Rather than following behind the ants, Tianlan felt that it was more convenient for her to distinguish those marks that had left the anthill.

It's not a difficult task, just like mastering a foreign language, but it's not all about mastering it, you just need to know what yes is and what no is.

By observing the ants' every move, Tianlan quickly discerned the difference between the two, and then began to take Chu Mosheng and follow these marked information outside.

As for whether this is the way out of the anthill, Tianlan is not sure, but everything must be tried, and after some failures, it can help him master this ability.

Next, Tianlan began to take Chu Mosheng and wander in the ant's nest.

During this period, they also took a lot of detours, but fortunately, there is no dead end in the ant's nest, and all the nests are connected by a huge cavity and a tunnel.

As long as you walk in one direction, you can get out sooner or later.

Tianlan, who can read ant pheromones, does not need to try her luck, as long as she walks in the direction marked by the ants on the ground, she can quickly leave the nest.

Although they made a lot of detours, at least they were able to leave the nest safely.

There is not only one exit from the ant nest, the one in the city can only be said to be one of the many exits of the ant nest.

But presumably, the exit on the other side of the city is no longer usable, after all, it has been bombed like that, and if it is not cleaned up, it will not be able to pass through at all.

And now the location where Tianlan and they came out is in a forest.

As for the exact position, they can't be sure for the time being.

As soon as he left the dark cave and suddenly came outside, the human eyes couldn't adapt to the sudden change in light and darkness for a while, causing Chu Mosheng's eyes to be snow-white, and he couldn't confirm the surrounding situation at all.

Tianlan, on the other hand, is not very familiar with this piece, so he doesn't know where this is.

He had lived in the city for a while, but it was many years ago, and even if he remembered everything now, he might not know where it was.

After all, the changes of the times are quite large, even Tianlan's own home, although the home has not changed much, but some of the surrounding ones, in just half a year, have become unknown to Tianlan.

But now, instead of confirming her location, Tianlan feels that there are still some things that must be dealt with first.

The current season is the height of summer, and it is the most prosperous time for insects.

And in such a season, there are already a lot of bugs in the city, let alone in the wilderness.

They were indeed in a forest at the moment, but the forest was no longer its original green, and even the trunks of the trees were almost gone.

After all, the vast majority of insects are herbivorous, and after becoming so huge, it is also a very simple thing to eat up the leaves of a forest.

So, what will the bugs do next when they have no leaves to eat?

Do you sit and wait to die, or do you change your diet?

The answer is obvious, it may be difficult to change the diet, but for the current bugs, it is a very simple thing.

If you don't eat it, then you can only die, and between life and death, no matter what living thing is, you will instinctively choose to live.

And in order to survive, animals often make the most instinctive and effective methods.

Since there are no leaves to eat now, then eat other creatures, as long as it is to live, there is nothing in this world that cannot be eaten.

Now, in the already bare forest, two people suddenly appeared, so what does it mean?

A big meal, of course!

As soon as Tianlan came to the ground, he saw the caterpillars hidden in the surrounding trees.

Since the caterpillar is the same color as the trunk of a tree, it is effective in hiding in the forest, so that the ants cannot detect it.

But if you look closely, you can still find it.

Tianlan found dense caterpillars on the big trees surrounded by one person, and they had completely covered the trees, and there was not a single gap in sight.

The moment Tianlan appeared, all the caterpillars became agitated.

At this moment, Tianlan felt an extremely aggressive gaze and stared at herself.

And the number of sights, Tianlan can't confirm.

There are too many, and many Tianlan can't confirm it, as if Tianlan and them at this moment have been overwhelmed by their sight.

Tianlan couldn't confirm how many bugs there were around, but they still had no intention of attacking her for the time being.

It should be because they are still on the ground next to the ants, and they will not easily expose themselves in front of the ants for their own safety.

However, if Tianlan leaves the ant's territory, it will not be easy to say.

At this moment, Chu Mosheng finally adapted to the changes in the strong light, looking at the surrounding situation.

However, Chu Mosheng, who had just seen the surrounding situation clearly, almost screamed, but fortunately she endured it.

I can't look at this picture directly.

Just as far as he could see, Chu Mosheng saw countless insects.

This is just in front of them, if the entire forest is like this, then how many insects there are, Chu Mosheng can't imagine.

"Hold on to me."

Tianlan's voice suddenly sounded in her ears, which startled Chu Mosheng, but she didn't complain, but hugged Tianlan's body without any hesitation.

Tianlan looked at Chu Mosheng, who was holding on tightly, and also reached out to stop her thin waist.

Then his legs began to bend, and then he jumped violently, jumping straight to a height of several meters.

If they want to leave this place, they can't just jump, the forest is too vast, they can't estimate the distance, they can't jump out of the forest at all.

But Tianlan didn't plan to jump out of the forest from the beginning.

I saw that the clothes on Tianlan's back suddenly burst, and a pair of wings like cicada wings stretched out from Tianlan's back.

The wings were constantly stirring, from a slow speed at the beginning, to a speed of ten or even dozens of beats per second.

The transparent wings set off a strong wind and flew in the air with Tianlan and Chu Mosheng.

Chu Mosheng couldn't help but cheer when he looked at the fact that he left the ground and soared in the air at this moment.

"Wow! That's great! This is simply amazing! ”

And Tianlan's cheers for Chu Mosheng were warnings: "Don't move, be careful that I throw you down." ”

"......" Hearing such a warning, Chu Mosheng instantly shut up and stopped making any sound.

In fact, Tianlan was not warning Chu Mosheng, like flying in the air now, Tianlan also paid a great price.

It is difficult to control the way of flying with insects, and they must constantly incite their wings to fly, and if they stop slightly, they will fall.

That's why Tianlan told Chu Mosheng to shut up and not let her interfere with herself, so as not to fall down and become food in the mouths of those insects.

According to the gnawing speed of those insects, it is estimated that it will take less than half a minute, and even the bones will not be left.

Insects fly in a very laborious way, having to flare their wings dozens of times per second.

According to Tianlan's current strength, they can't hold out for long at all, and they must leave this forest as soon as possible.

"Do you know what this place is?" Tianlan asked Chu Mosheng.

If you want to leave this forest, you must first find out where it is, and then confirm the direction, otherwise, in the end, not only will you not leave the forest, but you will go deeper and deeper into something.

Chu Mosheng looked at the forest that had changed a lot now, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "I think it should be the back mountain, the back mountain closest to that city, as long as you keep moving north, you should be able to return to the city soon." ”

Although Chu Mosheng couldn't be sure, they shouldn't be too far away.

For Chu Mosheng's words, Tianlan did not doubt it, and flew directly towards the north.

Now Tianlan, it is not too simple to confirm a direction.

Even if you don't have to pass through the sun, you can accurately determine the direction.

After all, some bugs are inherently a ruthless directional confirmation machine.

Even if they are in an underground where they can't tell the direction, they can tell the difference between east, east, west, and north.

Therefore, now Tianlan can clearly distinguish the direction, and there is no need to confirm anything at all.

Sometimes, however, even if you can discern the direction, the final result may not be as you might expect.

For example, now, what Chu Mosheng said is indeed right, this is indeed the mountain behind the city where they are located, as long as they go north, they can indeed return to the original city.

But Chu Mosheng forgot the distance, even if they kept flying north from here, this distance was not the distance they could fly back immediately.

Besides, Tianlan's ability has a limit, although he has the genes of insects, he is not an insect.

Tianlan can't fly as freely as an insect, and his current flight time is only five minutes.

It only takes more than five minutes for him to be completely exhausted.
