This tree is too weird, if you want to explain this situation, unless you invite a botanist, analyze it from a botanical point of view, but this is Zhuyang City, located in a remote area and the degree of development is not high, even high school is still in the city, where to find such professionals?

Lin Ping thought about it, let's take a look at it with a secret eye, see what this tree has gone through, why it has become what it is now, knowing the cause and effect, maybe you can find the reason why Zhang Yunxi and Qi Zhuangzhuang are sick.

"Yu Cheng, don't you think this tree is weird?" Lin Ping wanted to find a reason to branch Yu Cheng away, not wanting to expose his secret eye.

"It's very strange, I've never seen a tree like this, and it's hard to explain this situation with science." Yu Cheng observed for a while and nodded.

"You do me a favor, my phone seems to have left in your car, you help me get it, I'll call someone and ask someone, okay?" Lin Ping's mobile phone has always been carried with him, but it is just to take Yu Cheng away.

"Okay, I'll go now." Yu Cheng turned around and left very happily.

After confirming that Yu Cheng was leaving, Lin Ping turned around again to make sure that no one was paying attention to this side, his eyes stared at the black lower part of the big tree, the light in his eyes flickered, and his eyes were shrouded in a soft and faint light light.

"Huh? Why can't you see anything? ”

Lin Ping was a little shocked, although he opened the secret eye, but there were no expected pictures in front of him, what was seen by the naked eye, what he saw after opening the secret eye still did not change, but the pupils were swollen and painful.

Ever since he had the Secret Eye, he has never missed. As long as you don't look at people, you can see the experience of this thing when you look at anything, and you can see some of it more or less, but this big tree doesn't give back anything, which is too abnormal.

Lin Ping opened the secret eye again without confidence, but still didn't see anything, his eyes were swollen and painful, and he couldn't help but rub his eyes.

"How so? Can't see anything? Lin Ping stared at the laurel tree in front of him in a daze.

Lin Ping stretched out his finger and buckled a small piece of black from the laurel tree, rubbed it in his hand, it was soft and sticky, like a tree nodule, and there was something black like carbon gray stuck to his fingers, which was a little damp and grainy to the touch.

took out another imitation Swiss Army knife from his backpack, the kind that cost ten yuan a piece on the stall, and all kinds of parts were complete, which Lin Ping used for manicures.

Dialing out the knife edge, Lin Ping pierced the blade into the black trunk, the knife edge was not very sharp, only a little bit into it, and the gray wood pulp flowed out, and then changed the color of the lighter place, and pierced it hard, this time the wood pulp that flowed out was lighter. I simply inserted a deep knife into it, pulled it out violently, and the wood pulp that flowed out turned out to be milky white.

This makes Lin Ping even more strange, being able to flow milky white wood pulp shows that the center of the trunk is still vigorous, and being able to flow out such a rich wood pulp shows that this laurel tree is still in the growth period and is not an old tree, but why does it look like it is dying near the root?

"Could it be that there is something next to it that is affecting the growth of this tree?"

Lin Ping has a general understanding of botany, but he also knows that if there are some special chemicals next to the tree, such as strong acids, which will accelerate the withering and aging of the tree, or if the tree is mutated due to nuclear radiation, it will also accelerate the aging and withering of the tree.

But after looking around, he found nothing, except for some weeds, garbage and soil, nothing could attract Lin Ping's attention, and even the earth and stones were lifted, and nothing special was found.

"It's weird." Yu Cheng also rushed back, stepped over the collapsed wall and said to Lin Ping: "Lin Ping, I didn't find your mobile phone." Are you muted? I called you just now, but I couldn't hear any sound. ”

"Mute?"

Lin Ping is also strange, his mobile phone is never set to mute, because Aunt Fang will find him from time to time, although the ringtone is not loud, but it is not inaudible, and the most important thing is that his mobile phone is by his side.

"You dial my mobile number again." Lin Ping said to Cheng.

Yu Cheng took out his mobile phone, and as soon as he dialed it, a red "X" was displayed on the phone.

"It's really strange, my phone is not in arrears, why can't I get through?" Yu Cheng tried and tested several times, and always showed a red "X".

Lin Ping faintly felt that this might be a clue.

Although the signal in the countryside is not good, the mobile phone signal coverage is so wide that it is not enough to say that there is no signal at all.

"Don't move here."

Lin Ping left the courtyard quickly, wanting to do an experiment to see if the disappearing signal was related to the courtyard.

Walking more than 100 meters away from the courtyard of the old house, Lin Ping took out the mobile phone in his pocket, the three-bar signal, it was normal and there was nothing wrong.

first dialed Lao Xu's mobile phone, and the connection was very fast, Lin Ping dropped a sentence "accidentally bumped into it", which made Xu Jie over there look confused. Then I dialed Yu Cheng's, and the earpiece prompted "not in the service area".

Lin Ping condensed his eyebrows and looked in the direction of the old house, and had a plan in his heart: it seems that the problem is really in this courtyard.

It is normal to be able to block mobile phone signals, many mobile phone signal jammers can do this, and it is not too difficult to even shield the signal reception and transmission of base stations. But this is a remote and poor village in Zhuyang City, who would be idle and have nothing to do to put a signal jammer here? Moreover, the old mansion of the Zhang family has been abandoned for many years, and no one has lived in it for a long time. Coupled with the weird appearance of that big tree, this is not normal.

Lin Ping returned to the courtyard and said to Cheng: "The phone has been found, it is in the bag." However, the phone I just called you and it shows that it is not in the service area, is your mobile phone faulty? ”

Yu Cheng took out his mobile phone with a puzzled face, the signal disappeared, and Yu Cheng sighed: "No, because Mr. Zhang has to contact me often, my mobile phone will never be down, and it will be automatically recharged if it costs less than 1,000." It's still fine when I call in the morning, you see, there's no signal at all now. ”

Yu Cheng's answer made Lin Ping even more sure that there was something wrong with this courtyard, and there must be something that caused the mutation of this tree, as well as the disappearance of the signal. Is it one thing or many? I can't be sure.

"Let's look and see if there's anything strange here, I suspect there's something here that blocks out signal reception and transmission." Although he had searched for it before and found nothing, Lin Ping still decided to look for it again and leave nothing behind.

"Okay." Yu Cheng nodded.

The two of them rolled up their sleeves and kept turning over the ground around the big tree, and even the garbage was turned over for the two of them, and they almost didn't dig three feet into the ground.

After searching for more than an hour, I was tired and sweaty, and my body was soaked with sweat, but I still didn't find anything, and my mobile phone still had no signal.

It's also weird!
