Chapter 31: Biology
"I came with a companion, but he was dead." Xu Junshan turned around, helped his glasses, and looked at Lu Chao with some panic.
"You're lying!" Lu Chao raised the big axe high, ready to cut it down at any time.
Why do you know that Xu Junshan is lying...... It's because this girl has a walkie-talkie pinned to her waist.
If he had only one person, he wouldn't have used it.
Previously, Lu Chao also met a man with a walkie-talkie, a self-righteous strong man who didn't take the two wild wolves in his eyes, but ended up dying in the belly of the wolf.
It seems that the person in front of him is the otaku who is talking to the strong man on the walkie-talkie.
At this time, he still carried a walkie-talkie, and there was only one possibility, and that was that he had other companions.
Looking at his face, he didn't become yellow and thin, and it seemed that their food reserves were very rich.
Or, there is a food source that Lu Chao doesn't know.
"Well, I still have a girlfriend, but she's ugly, you won't be interested." Xu Junshan hesitated for a while, took out a mobile phone from his body, and played a video to Lu Chao.
This girl is not too ugly, but her face is pale and sickly, Lu Chao is really not interested.
"How did that companion of yours die?" Lu Chao asked another question.
"There were two wolves in the woods, and I advised him not to go out, but he didn't listen, saying that if he didn't go out, he would starve to death at home. He practiced martial arts when he was a child, and he felt that he had no problem dealing with two wolves, and the result was ...... I never went back, and I still haven't found the body. Xu Junshan sighed.
"You said you had a girlfriend, right? Take your walkie-talkie, talk to her, and don't mention the encounter with me. Lu Chao pointed to the walkie-talkie on Xu Junshan's waist.
"Okay." Xu Junshan was silent for a while and agreed, and then picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Xiaocan, are you there?"
"Yes! You okay? Nothing happened, right? A female voice came out.
"It's okay, I'm just worried that you're scared at home alone, so I'll talk to you for a few words." Xu Junshan said and glanced at Xiao Hei, who had been facing him at Lu Chao's feet.
"I'm fine, when are you coming back? Running so far, I'm so worried about you. ”
"Don't worry, it's been safe in the woods lately, I'll be back when I'm done."
"How long? I steamed the rice. ”
"Probably...... Half an hour, right? I won't tell you more, I'll hurry up and hurry back. ”
After Xu Junshan finished speaking, he turned off the walkie-talkie and looked at Lu Chao again.
Lu Chao was silent for a while, then put away the big axe, beckoned to Xu Junshan, and led him to a small mound covered with fallen leaves.
"About two months ago, I found a corpse here, with a helmet on his head, his body had been bitten by a wolf, and a walkie-talkie on his waist. I buried him here so as not to pollute the environment. Lu Chao pointed to the small mound.
"It should be him." Xu Junshan squatted down, took a small shovel from his backpack and shoveled it on the small mound.
Although two months have passed, there has been no rain in the woods, the soil is still very loose, and Lu Chao was only worried about infectious diseases and environmental pollution, so he hastily buried the body and did not dig too deep a pit.
After a while, Xu Junshan dug up the body of the strong man.
The corpse didn't decompose, it just turned into a dried corpse!
"Alas...... He's a distant cousin of mine, a small boss, and a very nice person. My girlfriend and I just went to join him, but when we woke up the next morning, we were somehow here. In the days before he came, he happened to receive a big order, saying that he wanted to make a small fortune, but the result was ......" Xu Junshan looked at the body of the strong man who was bitten by a wild wolf, and his expression was very sad.
Lu Chao stood next to him and didn't squeak.
"You seem familiar with this place, don't you? Do you know how we got here? Xu Junshan turned around and asked Lu Chao.
"I don't know." Lu Chao shook his head.
"I doubt it...... Are we already dead, this is the legendary Netherworld ......" Xu Junshan continued to mumble to himself.
Lu Chao was shocked when he heard Xu Junshan's words.
After a moment, he quickly overturned Xu Junshan's speculation.
There are indeed many passages in online novels that travel to another world after death, but how can there be such a situation where all the family and the house travel together?
You can't always die as a family, right?
And the house also has electricity and water.
"It's really weird here, it's like a dead world. Except for the one that appeared two months ago...... Except for the two wolves, no other animals were seen, and then the two wolves disappeared. There weren't even snakes, flies, or mosquitoes in the whole jungle. The corpse has not been left for so long and has not decomposed too much, but it is slightly stinky, indicating that there are very few bacteria and microorganisms here, and even if there are, they are just bacteria carried by our bodies. Xu Junshan looked at the strong man's corpse and said a few more words.
Lu Chao frowned, he had indeed noticed these phenomena before, but he hadn't thought so deeply.
This Xu Junshan previously introduced him as a college student in the Department of Biology?
"There's a supermarket over there, you should know about it?" Xu Junshan stood up and pointed in the direction of the dimensional supermarket and asked Lu Chao.
"Yes."
"You know that the leaves and fruits of some of the trees in this grove are edible?" Xu Junshan asked Lu Chao a few more questions.
"Oh?" Lu Chao didn't know much about this.
"I'm a botany, and of course, I'm glad I studied forests, otherwise I wouldn't have starved here if I couldn't find food. I've taken pictures of edible plants, leaves, and fruits, and I can give you a copy if you want. Xu Junshan took out his mobile phone and opened the photo album.
"Okay." Lu Chao also took out his mobile phone.
Xu Junshan used the Bluetooth function of his mobile phone to transmit those photos to Lu Chao.
"I've tried it, these edible branches and fruits, if you don't eat them, you can sell them to the supermarket, but the price is very low, and you can only exchange them for dozens of gold coins for a whole day." Xu Junshan said a few more words to Lu Chao, obviously trying to please Lu Chao.
Lu Chao glanced at Xu Junshan again, and finally understood how this otaku had persisted for so long and hadn't starved to death. It seems that reading more books is not wrong, I don't know when it will come in handy, and it can even save lives.
"This fruit is not edible, it is poisonous, but it can be used in medicine. If you see this fruit, you can exchange it with me, and I will barter with you at twice the price of the supermarket's recycling, which is much more cost-effective than throwing it to the supermarket. Xu Junshan pulled out a photo and showed it to Lu Chao.
Ask for recommendation votes to rush to the list, thank you very much!
