Chapter 11: Thorns in the Wind

The forests have begun to thin out and the ground is very dry. The briquette took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and said: "Get out of the forest, and then go through the Tempest Canyon to the destination, the straight-line distance is about 4 kilometers, the route is 6 kilometers, at your speed, it will take more than half an hour." However, there are also many dangers along the way, such as the Tempest Canyon ahead, which is so windy that it can blow you into the sky, not to mention the creatures and natural traps inside. ”

Fu Bin struggled to run with the briquettes, his cultivation level was too low, and the briquettes could only stop and go in front. Along the way, he killed several more creatures, among which Fu Bin also killed a relatively weak scavenging beast. Ten minutes later, a canyon about two kilometers long appeared in front of me. It's a V-shaped rift, and the slopes on both sides are lined with sharp stone pillars like dense teeth, making the canyon look like a huge open beast's mouth. The valley in the middle is dotted with large areas of thorny bushes, and many large herbivores are feeding peacefully in the thorn bushes, which look harmless.

As soon as I entered the canyon, I saw a burst of dust outside the valley opposite. Briquettes shouted, "Get over here!" Then he accelerated towards the group of herbivores, and Fu Bin hurriedly followed.

By the time we reached the edge of the thorn bushes, the dust had reached the middle of the canyon. When the giant beasts saw the two coming, they did not panic, and still chewed the bushes calmly. The briquette ran directly to the feet of a giant beast and lay down. Fu Bin didn't ask much, he did the same, and lay on the side.

This giant beast has two horns on its head, a bit like a hairless ox, but the paws of its feet are like elephants, with rough and thick skin, small eyes, a needle-like nose, bare buckteeth, and a particularly long tongue. As soon as Fu Bin saw the appearance of the giant beast, he saw the bushes swaying wildly, and a gust of wind shook the eardrums, and then except for the sound of the air current, he couldn't hear any sound.

This is just the beginning, and immediately after, the thorns on the side dance wildly in the wind, hitting the ground and crackling, you can imagine what it would be like if you stood close and were drawn by them. Then a gust of sand and dust hit his head and face, and his skin stinged, and he couldn't open his eyes. Fortunately, the giant beast on the side can't move now, and can only lower its huge body, so that Fu Bin and Briquette can use their bodies to block the wind. The skin of this giant beast was rough and thick, and the thorns were drawn to its body, and it was not salty, and it even leaned over and tore off a mouthful of leaves with his tongue.

The wind came and went. In less than five minutes, the wind had subsided without warning, and the two men had risen from the ground covered in dust, and the beasts had begun to eat in peace again. Fu Bin thought about it, if he didn't know the danger here, he would definitely be blown away by that gust of wind, not to mention how he fell, as long as he was blown to the thorn bush or the mountain wall, the end would be unimaginable.

Briquette said: "Hurry up and cross the canyon, or you may not be so lucky next time." ”

"How long does it take for this wind to come and show?"

"Not necessarily, sometimes two or three hours, sometimes less than five minutes."

Fu Bin nodded and followed, and the two ran wildly for more than ten minutes, but they didn't encounter any fierce beasts and traps on the way, and they saw that there were still a few hundred meters to get out of the canyon.

“Fuck!” The briquette that was running in front suddenly sank under his feet, and with a loud curse, half of his body had sunk into a piece of sand. When Fu Bin saw it, he hurriedly stopped his steps, fortunately he ran slowly, otherwise he would have rushed in.

"It's supposed to be a quagmire formed by a spring, just covered in sand and dust, and you can't see that it's wet at all." The briquettes were in danger, and they even had the leisure to explain to Fu Bin. Although Fu Bin knew that this was a virtual scene, he was still moved in his heart.

"I'll pull you up!" Fu Bin probed under his feet and found that due to inertia, the briquettes rushed into the quagmire for more than four or five meters, and he couldn't reach him at all. Seeing the body of the briquette sinking little by little, Fu Bin was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, so he could only look left and right, trying to find some way.

"Bing, you leave me alone!" Briquette yelled: "You hurry around, as long as you run to the destination, we will pass the level, I can hold on for a few minutes, if it doesn't work, you can just quit." ”

"No, at least I have to try." Fu Bin finally fixed his eyes on a bush of thick thorns, then walked over and drew his sword, ignoring those spikes, he got under the thorn bushes, cut three or four thorns, and when he came out, because he was in too much hurry, his body was torn several times with skin and flesh on his clothes, and there was a blood groove on his face. However, Fu Bin ignored the stinging pain in his hands, and roughly braided the thorn strips, which were three or four meters long.

Fu Bin's hands were bloody, but now he couldn't care so much, he roughly sharpened the spikes at both ends, and then threw the long thorns to the briquette, and said, "Catch it." ”

The briquette shook his head, and while pulling the thorn strip, he said: "You kid is not stupid, this is just simulation training, you just need to run over, we will pass the test, why suffer this." ”

Fu Bin shook his head and said: "I know this is simulation training, but I want to deal with it according to the real situation, is it really this situation, do you also want me to give up your life to escape alone in order to suffer less from this bit of flesh and skin?" ”

Briquettes shook their heads vigorously: "Oh no, of course it won't work." ”

"That's nonsense, come up!"

Finally pulled the briquette up, and the two walked forward again, but this time they were more careful, and some suspicious places would throw a stone to try before leaving. However, in this way, the speed is slow, and it took about ten minutes to walk for four or five minutes.

At this end of the canyon is a vast plain, but the mountains here form a funnel shape, and the Tempest Canyon is right in the middle, so the winds from the plains often converge into the canyon to form an amazing strong wind. Just then, another cloud of dust came in front of them, and the two of them quickened their pace, narrowly turning out before the wind blew into the canyon again.

After walking along the foot of the mountain for nearly ten minutes, I finally arrived at a place similar to the base, this base has no shield on it, it is just a symbol, and the two of them cannot enter the base, and when they reach the gate of the base, even if they successfully pass the training. The reward for clearing the customs is to reduce the contribution points consumed by half, which is not very interesting, but it can only be regarded as better than nothing, just a little encouragement.

After withdrawing, Fu Bin looked at the table below, this training time took more than an hour, and it was less than half an hour before the changing of the guard.

After getting off the simulator, Fu Bin asked, "Brother Briquette, don't you sleep at night?" ”

"Oh, it's almost midnight, it's almost time to go back to bed. By the way, you don't have a place to live yet, do you want to go to me? ”

Fu Bin felt a chill on his body, and hurriedly said, "No, no, I'll go to stand guard in a while." ”

"That's right. By the way, it's not polar night yet, but it's still cold. If you want to keep warm, the best way is to enter the state of cultivation, of course, cultivation requires the consumption of spars, about two Qinghui stones in one night are enough, do you have them? No, I can lend you some. ”

Fu Bin was about to answer, but he heard a familiar voice behind him: "Do you think it's really good to treat a newcomer with such meticulous care?" ”

It was Yun Huaxue, and when Briquettes saw her, their dark faces were full of disdain, and said, "You mean, it's the best thing to do to squeeze out every newcomer's contribution points like you do?" ”

"Of course!" Yun Huaxue said as a matter of course: "You break the rules like this, and it is unfair to others. Moreover, for the people you help, they also lose the opportunity to exercise and understand. ”

"Hahaha......" Briquette laughed, and then asked Fu Bin, "Bing, what do you think?" ”

Fu Bin couldn't imagine that he would be involved so quickly, he was originally a person who was not good at words, he didn't know how to speak for a while, thought about it, and said: "I'm just a programmer, I don't know any big truths, but in our business, I know one truth, that is, if a rule can be easily broken, then it is not a real rule." ”

"Hahaha!" The briquette's laughter was louder than just now: "Bing, you said this sentence too well, too TM and philosophical." ”

Yun Huaxue's face turned angry, and she glared at Fu Bin fiercely and said, "I don't know what to do!" ”

Fu Bin didn't want to tear his face with a beautiful woman, so he just smiled apologetically. At this time, Emperor Yan on the side spoke: "Sister Yun, why do you have to be like a person with a mouse's eyes, a person who has not left the initial base for almost a year, hehe, just waiting to be expelled." ”

Briquettes didn't even glance at Emperor Yan, and said to Fu Bin: "Let's go, don't waste time here." Then he walked towards the door. Fu Bin followed, and turned back slightly, but saw Emperor Yan's disdainful and angry eyes.

Walking out of the training room, it was already a little cold outside. Briquette said suddenly: "The biggest humiliation for a person is to ignore it, especially for those little P children who want to prove their existence." ”

Fu Bin nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Yun Huaxue's point of view can't be said to be wrong, it's just that she uses her own ideas to ask others, which is a bit overbearing." ”

This is the truth, let's just say that this survival training, if it weren't for the briquettes to take him, Fu Bin would have been black-eyed at all, and he didn't know how many times he would have to die to find a safe point. And the briquettes are equivalent to his cheats, which greatly reduces the difficulty of this simulation training, just like opening a game strategy, and at the same time greatly missing his own exploration process. Of course, Fu Bin can't blame the briquettes, after all, this training is completely his points, and it really taught him a lot, and he also learned that the ferocity of this world is not only living things, but also the environment.

Briquette glanced at Fu Bin strangely, and said, "You seem to be quite familiar with her, won't your newcomer guide be her?"

Fu Bin's face turned red, and he said helplessly: "When I woke up, I just met her and was resurrected, so I ......"

"yes, she hung up again the day before yesterday!" Briquettes put away their teasing expressions and said, "This woman is very dead, she has been here for less than two months, as far as I know, this is the second resurrection." ”

This Fu Bin knew about it, and couldn't help asking, "Is it very dangerous outside the base?" ”

"It's definitely more dangerous than on Earth!" Briquette smiled and said, "But it's okay, as long as you don't go to the danger area alone, or you encounter extreme weather upside down, you won't hang up." By the way, with your current combat strength, it's best not to go outside the base alone, if you really can't help but want to turn around, don't exceed a radius of 3 kilometers. ”

Fu Bin did have this idea, and when he heard this, he quickly dispelled some of it, but the range of a 3-kilometer radius is not small, and it should be enough to visit for a few days.
