Volume 1 The Fall of Modern Civilization Chapter 63 The Road is Hard
After advancing for a while, I saw Gai Xi being besieged by three mongooses, but Gai Xi waved the two mantis knives and did not fall into the wind.
Seeing this scene, Chu Yuntian immediately said to Xiao Ya's second daughter: "Do it, don't attract other mongooses at speed" After speaking, he jumped to Gai Xi's side.
Gai Xi was also overjoyed when he saw Chu Yuntian and them coming back, and the two mantis knives in his hands were wielding even harder.
With the addition of three people, the mongoose side immediately fell behind, and after a few rounds, the three mongooses were injured one after another, and slowly retreated in the direction of the nest.
Seeing the mongoose retreating, several people did not dare to chase after it, but ran in the opposite direction towards the mongoose's nest......
It wasn't until midnight that Chu Yuntian and the others stopped at the foot of a small hill, Chu Yuntian stood still and said, "Let's rest first, wait for dawn before we set off, it's too easy to go the wrong way at night, and it's too dangerous." ”
Xiaoya jumped over and said, "Yes, let's go tomorrow, I've been running for most of the night, and I've already run out of the meerkat's encirclement again, what's the hurry, walk slowly." ”
Chu Yuntian nodded and said, "Let's look around this hill to see if there are any caves, or cracks or something, and rest in it for a night, it's relatively safe." Then he searched around the foot of the mountain......
Soon he found a cave that seemed to have been dug out of something, Chu Yuntian took the lead in to investigate, and there were no creatures in it, only some animal bones.
Chu Yuntian walked out and said to the three of them: "Let's pay attention to it here for one night, I don't know if the things inside are gone, or if they don't come back at night." ”
Gai Xi stood up and said, "Then you go and rest, I will guard it tonight, I slept during the day yesterday." ”
"That's okay, I'll discuss how to go tomorrow," after speaking, he took the second daughter and walked to the cave.
Gai Xi dutifully stood at the entrance of the cave to keep vigil.
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the three people in the cave were woken up, only to hear the sound of fierce fighting outside the east, and the three of them immediately ran out, and saw Gai Xi fighting with a pangolin four or five meters long and wearing scale armor.
The speed of one person and one beast is not fast, but the strength is amazing, especially the pangolin-like creature, a heavy scale armor, indestructible, short limbs with sharp bone claws, Gai Xi slashed at the pangolin's body with a mantis knife many times, making a "bang" hard object impact sound, but there is no damage at all, but Gai Xi, every time he is swept by the pangolin with his tail, or the top will fly far away, but every time he can stand up and continue to fight.
As soon as the three of them came out, they joined the battle, but the biological weapon on their bodies could not hurt it, so they had no choice but to stalemate like this, and they fought against each other for a few more rounds, seeing that there was really no way Chu Yuntian shouted and withdrew..... Then all four of them began to run towards the top of the hill.
The pangolin chased after it for a while, and then they were left far away, and a few people found a big tree to stop, Chu Yuntian said: "This thing is really hard, the biological weapons on our bodies now can't do harm to this crustacean power-type creature." ”
Gai Xi gasped and said, "It's not that we can't do harm, it's that we don't work hard, and when we run out of bioenergy, we will almost be able to kill it." ”
Chu Yuntian nodded and said, "It makes sense, but it's not worth it to fight hard with such a thing." After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and opened the map and continued: "We are now here in Jiashan, and we are almost to the original Baoding area in front of us, I don't know where it still exists, today we are faster, we should be able to get there, if there are people, we can repair it there, if it is ruined, we will continue to go north." ”
Everyone rested for a while, and then set off towards the decided place, along the way, they encountered a first-order evolutionary beast and killed it directly, and when they encountered a second-order ordinary, they also ran over to solve it, with Chu Yuntian's biological perception skills, it was smooth to kill the evolutionary beast along the way and avoid various dangers.
Traveling like this for three days, it was only to arrive at the original Baoding address, although some buildings and high-rise buildings still exist, but there is no city wall, even if there are still people inside, there is not much left.
A few people entered the city, and found that the place had been infested by plants, I am afraid that in a few months this place will completely disappear and become a part of the forest, some ordinary bungalows have been overturned by the vigorous vitality of big trees, some shrubs have also grown on both sides of the road, only some buildings, the foundation is stable, and there are cement coverings, which are barely preserved, but there are also many vines and plants climbing on them.
Seeing this "vibrant" appearance, Xiaoya was shocked: "The power of nature is really powerful, how long has it been since no one cared about it, and it has become like this." ”
Chu Yuntian walked in front and said without looking back: "Since the emergence of human civilization, it has been destroying the original ecology on the earth, although it is full of vitality, but most of that vitality is for human beings, and the living environment of the rest of the species is getting worse and worse, and now I don't know if the earth is dissatisfied with human beings, or if there are other forces involved in the process of human civilization." ”
Duo'er was curious: "The earth is dissatisfied with human beings? How is it possible, the earth has no thoughts, it is just a ball of earth. ”
Chu Yuntian smiled and said: "First of all, the earth is not an earth ball, in addition, in ancient Greek myths and legends, whenever it comes to the evolution of species, there is often a thing called Gaia consciousness, which seems to mean that the earth has its own consciousness, although I don't know exactly what I am talking about, it probably means that everyone on our earth, including humans, animals and plants, rivers, mountains and rivers, and all other substances, is a child of the earth, and when we children are disobedient, it is excessive destruction of the earth. It will educate us to use all kinds of natural and man-made disasters to correct our mistakes; When we encounter difficulties, that is, multi-genocide, it will use its own strength to help us; When we grow up to create a career, it will be proud of us and continue to support us to create greater brilliance. ”
Xiaoya answered: "Then why didn't you study it carefully?" Don't you like to study all that mess? ”
Chu Yuntian turned around and said helplessly to Xiao Ya: "Miss, I am studying medicine, not natural science, and biology, what do I study for, and I don't add points to the exam, besides, I saw it when I was studying a long time ago." ”
Duo'er pondered for a moment behind her and said, "According to what you say, the current situation is that the earth is punishing mankind?" ”
Chu Yuntian sighed and said: "Then who knows, legends are legends after all, and there are still people in legends who will fly to the sky and spitt fire, spitting fire, and spitting ice, you take this seriously......"
After a few words, I slowly came to the bottom of the building, Chu Yuntian looked up at the building covered with vines, and not only sighed: "I don't know how long humans can last in such a situation," After speaking, he took the lead and walked into the building.
The inside of the building is a little dark and damp, and the vines outside have blocked the sunlight, coupled with the fact that the plants have to go to the water, it is difficult to keep this place dry. It's so damp, and there's a strange smell, and it's uncomfortable to death. ”
Chu Yuntian looked around, it was indeed not suitable for living, it was better to find a place outside to be comfortable, and then said: "Then let's find a place, I see that there is an upstairs in front of me and there are no vines, where should it be better." After saying that, he was about to go out, but at this moment, a huge horse suddenly climbed down the stairs, and with a roar, he rushed towards several people.
Several of them were shocked, how could there be an evolution beast in this building, and after a lot of scrambling to deal with it, a few people barely ran out of the building, but seven or eight horses ran out of the building one after another, each of them looked like four or five meters, Xiao Ya shouted while running: "Why does this thing grow so big, disgusting to death, I have been afraid of this thing since I was a child." ”
"If you're afraid, run faster and run to the city center," Chu Yuntian also shouted.
After running for several kilometers, the horses turned back stupidly, and a few people saw that the insects chasing them turned around and went back, and then stopped, Chu Yuntian gasped and said: "It seems that this city that has not been cleaned up does not need to be safe in the forest at all." "When he entered the city, he always thought that there would be no evolution beasts, so he didn't activate his senses, but he didn't expect to encounter that kind of disgusting thing.
Duo'er also gasped and said: "Next time, you can't enter the building so rashly, if you are blocked in the building by something inside, you don't know how many will run out of it, and you will get goosebumps all over your body when you think about it." ”
"Okay, I'm not very seriously invaded by plants in front of me, let's find another building to rest, maybe something will happen after dark." Chu Yuntian took a deep breath and said.
After resting for a while, the four of them went on the road again, this time Chu Yuntian began to be alert, every time he walked a distance, he activated a perception, and after walking a few thousand meters, Chu Yuntian suddenly stopped, because he felt that there was a human breath in the building not far away.
Xiao Ya saw Chu Yuntian stop and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”
Chu Yuntian pointed to a building not far away and said, "There seems to be someone somewhere." ”
Hearing this, the three of them stopped to look at the building he pointed to, Xiaoya looked at it for a while and said, "Who is there?" ”
"Let's go over and take a look, it'll be clear," After speaking, Chu Yuntian took the lead and walked towards the building.
When I walked over, I saw that it was a large shopping mall, covering an area of thousands of meters, with no vines on the outer wall, and the entrance to the mall was blocked by several abandoned cars.
As soon as they approached, a few people rushed out of the houses on the side and surrounded them, all of them holding submachine guns in their hands and wearing camouflage uniforms, looking like soldiers.
One of them, dressed in a non-commissioned officer's uniform, stood up and said, "What are you doing here?" ”
Chu Yuntian looked at the few people around them and said, "We fled here and wanted to find a place to rest. ”
The non-commissioned officer asked curiously, "Fleeing?" Where did you escape from? ”
