Chapter Eighty-Nine: Green State Sand Scorpion
I have to say that Yan Huang's cooking level is still good, this kind of meaty creature is just roasted by him to make a unique flavor, which also makes Ye Wumeng, a foodie, have a better attitude towards him, and the number of sneers has decreased significantly.
After everyone has eaten enough, wait for the wind to subside, and hurry to move on.
"Are there any traces of light snow around?" Fu Bin asked the mermaid.
The mermaid shook her head: "No, the wind and sand in this place can't leave any traces of people at all, and it will take a day or two at most to wipe out all the footprints." And she's alone, walking faster than us. ”
These words reminded Fu Bin that the speed of this team is a big problem now, and Yun Huaxue, an unconscious woman, doesn't know what to think, and she doesn't know how to stop and wait for herself. But after thinking about it, I understand that this desert is too windy and sandy, and there are few minerals and prey, so it is obviously not an ideal waiting place.
Not long after the team walked out of the crack where the wind was sheltering from the wind just now, the wind started again, and this gust of wind was stronger than the previous one, if it wasn't for everyone hugging together, it would definitely blow people away.
Fortunately, the storm did not last long, less than five minutes. For the rest of the journey, there were no more winds, but they were frequent, with an average of two or three times an hour, which greatly affected the speed of travel, and the green state as shown on the map was not reached until dark. But no one wanted to spend the night in such a place, so the team had to rush at night.
Finally, two hours after dark, we reached the edge of the green state, which was actually the lowest point in the center of the desert, with a deep pool formed by a spring. Around this waterhole, the vegetation in a radius of about two kilometers is relatively lush, but most of them are low shrubs more than one person tall.
According to the information, there were originally several dangerous creatures such as sand scorpions living here, but because they are on the road that humans must pass through and not far from the base, they have been almost killed, and they can only be encountered occasionally.
However, at this time, Fu Bin and others were in a dilemma on the edge of the green state. Because at this time, in the middle of the green state, there is a bright fire, and it is obvious that someone is camping there. The biggest possibility is naturally Gohan and others, but it can't be ruled out that it is Yun Huaxue, although the possibility of the latter is very small, but it can't be seen without confirmation.
What is even more worrying is another possibility, that is, Yun Huaxue met Ge Fan and others here, and this consequence is difficult to predict. So Fu Bin decided to sneak over to investigate first, this time Emperor Yan volunteered to go together, but was rejected by Fu Bin, the ghost knows what kind of attitude this guy has towards him now, he can't pit himself, and his strength has not recovered, and he can't help if he is really in danger.
Among the others, the comprehensive ability of wind and rain life and the experience of survival in the wild are relatively rich, and they need to stay and take care of others, the mermaid's strength is average, and the adaptability is also insufficient.
So it was decided that the others would go around the edge of the green state to find a place to camp, and Fu Bin and Shi Fa went to the camp in the middle to investigate, although the old monk's cultivation level was only one level, but with his skills, he could sweep several ordinary second-level combat power.
The two of them were dressed lightly, and quietly approached a hundred meters away from the campfire, and finally saw the six tents in the circle clearly, and they could be sure that it was not Yun Huaxue, then it should be Gofan's team. But now it is necessary to determine whether Yun Huaxue has intersected with them.
The two third-level combat forces in this team have a lot of ties with Fu Bin, and the relationship between Yun Huaxue and Fu Bin is already well known in the base. If they met Yun Huaxue, they would definitely not let go of this good opportunity to take revenge on Fu Bin, the consequences Fu Bin couldn't imagine, and it was what he was most worried about.
With a hint of eagerness, Fu Bin and Shi Fa continued to approach, and when they were less than fifty meters away from the camp, there were a few rustling sounds in front of them, and when they stopped, they turned out to be three sand scorpions, and the adult sand scorpions were more than one meter long, but these three were only about half a meter, and they seemed to be half-sized larvae.
This time, Fu Bin didn't know whether to say that he was lucky, or extremely bad luck, this thing usually can't be found if someone wants to find it, but now there are three at once.
Of course, this is not surprising, after all, this green state is the traditional spawning ground of sand scorpions, and this season is also the time of various larval activities. It's just that I happened to let myself run into it at this time. In normal times, Fu Bin and Shi Fa have several ways to solve them, but the disgusting thing is that if they kill these three little sand scorpions now, they will inevitably be discovered by Ge Fan and the others.
When the three sand scorpions first found Fu Bin and the others, they didn't move, but when they saw that the two of them had not moved for a long time, they began to tentatively step forward. Seeing the three scorpions approaching step by step, the two of them didn't dare to move, secretly complaining in their hearts, scolding the mud horses.
In the past two days, Fu Bin has read some information on the road and learned more about the biological characteristics of this world. Due to the short cycle of the seasons, those organisms that reproduce quickly adapt to this environment and adjust their reproductive period accordingly, so that small and lower organisms are more adapted to this world.
Mammals, especially the large mammals at the top of the food chain, simply cannot survive, and only omnivorous mammals such as rodents and dogs, as well as herbivorous and aquatic mammals, have adapted to the world.
Insects are inherently fast to reproduce, so creatures such as spiders, centipedes, ants, and cockroaches have survived successfully and evolved many powerful species.
The reproductive cycle of scorpions is relatively long, even longer than that of many mammals, but their ability to successfully survive in this world is of course inseparable from their powerful lethality.
The little scorpions on the earth can kill people with a single sting, and this gigantic species, if they are hit by their poisonous needles, they will definitely die. Moreover, in addition to their body shape, scorpions are no different from their counterparts on earth, which shows that their body structure is quite perfect and can adapt to any environment.
Seeing that the two targets were scared and stupid, the sand scorpion did not dare to move, so he made a posture of preparing to attack. At this time, the two had to make a move, Fu Bin raised his hand and shot an arrow of order directly through a scorpion, but the interpretation was faster than him, and at the same time as sending out an arrow of order, he jumped and grabbed the tail of the last sand scorpion, grabbed it and threw it up, so that its claws and stingers could not attack him.
Before Fu Bin could explain the intention of the law, someone shouted loudly around the campfire, and then immediately three people came out of the tent.
Seeing that it was about to spoil the dish, Shi Fa said in a deep voice: "Don't move!" I lure them away. ”
As he spoke, he shook the sand scorpion in his hand and ran wildly towards the camp. The few people who came out of the camp did not chase them out directly, but when Shi Fa was twenty meters close to the camp, he threw the sand scorpion in his hand, threw it at those people, and then rushed directly to the opposite side of the green state.
The people in the camp only saw one person running by, and then a black thing was thrown over, of course, they didn't dare to pick it up, and quickly dodged, and the sand scorpion fell at their feet, and the double claws and tail pins danced wildly, almost stinging people, but they were immediately dismembered by the sword.
"Jiao, this guy wants to hurt people!"
Two people immediately chased after him, and another person reported the situation inside the tent, and then stood there with another person to continue his sentry.
Fu Bin quietly shifted his position, approaching thirty meters from the camp, reflecting the firelight, he could already see the other party's appearance clearly, and he could finally hear the other party's words. Fu Bin has met these two people once or twice in the base, and they have been in for more than half a year, and they have not shown anything special.
One of them said, "Do you see who that person is just now?" ”
The other said: "It's so dark, how can you recognize it, but the captain said just now, it must be the ice and frost group, we haven't gone to him for trouble, they even dare to make trouble first, it seems that we have to teach him a lesson." ”
When Fu Bin heard this, he was a lot relieved, because from these words, he could at least be sure that they had not encountered Yunhua Snow at present. As for the lesson, Fu Bin is not worried, although the overall combat strength of his team is not high, there are three people who have mastered the "arrow of order", and the deterrent power in team battles is not small.
I saw one of them pierce the sand scorpion that had just been cut into several pieces with a sword, sat down by the fire and roasted it, and said, "This idiot, you also brought us supper, this thing is delicious." ”
The other person also smiled, but suddenly said, "Something is wrong, how can you be so stupid?" Could there be some trickery here? ”
"Why don't you two come together?"
Before the two of them could guess what the result was, the voice of the interpretation of the law sounded, and he actually ran back again!
Fu Bin looked up, but he didn't see the two people who had just released the Fa, and he had been cleaning up after such a while, it seemed that the strength of this old monk was beyond his expectations.
The two sentry men were also surprised: "Bastard, it turns out to be you, an old bald donkey!" What happened to Xiao Qi and them? ”
"What do you say?" Shi Fa said arrogantly: "Where are those two people my opponents, you can call a few more people, otherwise I promise to make you sleep peacefully all night." Also, I hate it when people call me a bald donkey! ”
"Humph!" The interpretation of the law is high-profile, and the murderous reputation in the base is still above Fu Bin, and the two of them dare not chase out, so they can only babble and wake up the others. Seeing seven or eight people pouring out of the tent at once, Shi Fa turned around and ran again, so angry that Gofan, who had just come out of the tent, roared angrily, startling out many small animals in the bushes.
"Captain Gofan, why don't I go after him alone? I don't believe that a guy at the level can do anything to me. "The one who spoke was the C117829 named Ah Long, with his quasi-third-level combat power, as long as the entropy shield was opened, it would be really difficult to deal with him with the interpretation of the arrow of order a few times, and the last time he was killed by Fu Bin, he mainly suffered a loss without an entropy array.
