Volume 2 Tales of the Night Chapter 18 The Tree of Black and White

Bai Ye's convoy soon passed through the Meiling Tunnel, and beyond the tunnel, the terrain suddenly opened up, and the flat terrain extended outward until several kilometers away.

At the exit of the tunnel, there are already scattered trees and various exotic plants, which appear to be similar to the plants of the earth, but if you look closely, you will find that these creatures have never appeared on the earth.

A few kilometers away, there is an endless raging jungle, the trees in the jungle grow very strangely, dozens of meters high giant trees can be seen everywhere, but these trees do not grow densely, often only one big tree in a radius of more than ten meters.

The ground of the jungle is covered with grass and rubble, and most of the plants are dark green, making the whole jungle look very oppressive.

The trees here grow straight and the space between them is so large that the heavy vehicles of the army can walk in them, but ordinary cars cannot pass here, because the ground is full of low shrubs and the roots of giant trees, and some blades of grass have sharp and hard edges, like knives. Cars with a slightly lower chassis get stuck in the grass after not being able to walk a few steps.

However, Bai Ye's car can pass, his Hummer H2 is suitable for off-roading, and he has specially modified the chassis, armor and tires in order to be able to drive through this jungle, as for the fifty soldiers led by Macron, they are driving armored personnel carriers, in front of the huge and hard tires, the grass and trees in the jungle are not obstacles at all.

Although the trees are sparse, the canopy of the trees here is so vast that they cover the sky in the air, so that the light in the jungle is very dim, and in the depths of the jungle there is occasionally a screech like an arrow breaking through the air, and every time it appears, it startles flocks of birds, followed by the terrified roars and wails of wild beasts.

According to White Night, this is the result of a wild beast that has alarmed the black trees in the jungle and been attacked by a flora.

The Screaming Jungle was extremely vast from the entrance, and the road before the tunnel was particularly crowded due to the large number of people retreating, even if they were walking through the military vehicle passage in the white night. But here, even if thousands of people entered the jungle at the same time, it was also very empty, and the noise that had filled the ears immediately quieted down.

Because heavy trucks loaded with supplies were constantly entering the jungle, so the jungle was pressed out of several roads, and White Night drove forward along one of them, and from time to time they would meet survivors walking on foot along the way, some of them wanted to hitchhike, trying to intercept White Night's convoy, and were frightened by several soldiers with guns, so they jumped to the side like frightened rabbits.

Not long after walking, everyone saw a strange tree from a distance of several hundred meters. The big tree was milky white and more than 20 meters high, and its trunk was large enough for three or four people to embrace. The tree was large, but it was not surprising in the screaming jungle of giant trees, but its white trunk made it stand out from the crowd.

Bai Ye immediately beckoned everyone to get out of the car and walked towards Bai Shu. It wasn't until the white tree approached that everyone realized that the tree was not only white, but also very clean, as if someone had cleaned its body specifically, and there was not even a single insect on the tree.

White Night said to everyone, "This is the white tree in the Screaming Jungle, which is one of the very few gifts from the New World to humans. As he spoke, he took out a thorn and lightly scratched it against a grain of the white tree, and then forced

Squeezing, milky white pulp immediately flowed out of it, and there was a rich aroma in the pulp, just smelling it made people feel refreshed.

Bai Ye took out a container and filled it, handed it to Ji Yunfei beside him, and said: "You taste it, it tastes very good, this thing is nutritious, often a cup can fill the stomach, and it can also relieve fatigue and enhance human immunity, which is a rare good thing." ”

Ji Yunfei drank it in one gulp, the pulp was sweet and sour, and there was a kind of aroma of soybean milk, and the taste was very good, so he handed the pulp to the next person and said with a smile: "The taste is really good, let's take more." ”

So under the leadership of Bai Ye, more than fifty people each filled their military kettles. When it came to picking up the pulp, Bai Ye preferred to be slower and only cut three openings in the white tree. In this regard, Bai Ye pointed to another big tree not far away and explained, "Do you see that tree?" ”

When everyone heard the sound, they saw a black tree standing there, although this tree was also tall, but it was a little low compared to the giant trees around it, and its trunk and branches were as black as if they were stained with ink. Due to the dark light in the jungle, the black tree is not very conspicuous and cannot be compared to the white tree at all.

"The Black Tree is the soldier of the Screaming Jungle, and although it can't think, it has an innate instinct to wake up the plants around it. Once the grass and shrubs around here come back to life, it will be very difficult, not to mention those towering trees, even if only one of them comes to life, it will be a big trouble. ”

Fortunately, the sap contained in the white tree is very sufficient, even if it is filled with all the military kettles, it still has spare strength, and there is no need for everyone to deliberately destroy it.

The group walked back with great interest, just arrived at the side of the car, suddenly a roar of the engine came, several pickup trucks drove over, one of which was still hanging a municipal special license plate, blocking in front of them in the white night, and more than a dozen people wearing martial arts uniforms walked down from the car, looking at the white night and the group with gloomy faces.

At the head was a grim-looking young man, twenty-five or sixteen years of age, with a hook-like nose that stood out. He glanced up and down at Bai Ye's team a few times, and said in a deep voice, "Which unit are you from?" ”

Bai Ye and several of their evolutionaries were wearing civilian clothes, and this person was obviously asking about Macron, Macron looked at Bai Ye, and saw that Bai Ye had no response, so he stepped forward and said, "We are not affiliated with the army now." ”

The man seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said disdainfully: "It turned out to be a group of civilians!" What a waste to give you such good equipment! ”

The so-called civilian armament is that Feng Tiannan issues weapons to civilians who are willing to fight for the army, so that they can set up a combat team spontaneously to help the army fight in a paid way. These civilians are mainly armed with radicals who aspire to power, and some are motivated to take revenge on monsters, and most of them have little combat power with only one blood.

Bai Ye suddenly stepped forward and asked slowly, "Who are we, and what does it matter to you?" ”

The man snorted coldly, and said a little arrogantly: "My name is Peng Hai, I don't know if you have heard of it?" ”

Bai Ye said expressionlessly: "I haven't heard of it." ”

Feng Hua reminded in his ear: "The secretary of the municipal party committee in J City is his own uncle, and he has always been mixed in the underworld, and the big brother who sits in the top position in the underworld in J City, I heard of his hand

There are thousands of outlaw criminals under control, and the power is extremely huge. Those wearing Wu Jing's uniforms are missing the real Wu Jing, perhaps his subordinates. ”

A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Bai Ye's mouth: "Peng Kun? I'm sorry, I'm lonely and don't know what the municipal party committee keeps a book for. ”

Peng Hai said angrily: "You-hum! He suddenly showed a somewhat hideous smile: "You know it, you don't know, it doesn't matter." But now, I am temporarily acting as the captain of the Wujing Army, and I will convey a mission to you on behalf of the government. Because of the heroic battle with the monster, there are many wounded in the Wujing troops, and now we are asking you for a transportation vehicle. In addition, in view of your lack of knowledge, these advanced weapons are too dangerous to put in your hands, for the sake of the safety of the people, I announce that your weapons have also been confiscated, now put down your weapons, hand over the car keys, and you can go! ”

After hearing this, the people on Bai Ye's side were dumbfounded, and they all felt sad for the Peng Hai opposite, and they dared to talk to Bai Ye like this! Like Feng Hua, Macron and several other people who have an understanding of the power of the municipal party committee, they all began to prepare silently, not to prepare for war with the other side, but to persuade Bai Ye to stop after defeating the other party in Bai Ye, don't accidentally kill the other party, and form a powerful enemy for no reason.

Bai Ye was silent for a long time, and suddenly sneered, and asked mockingly: "Let's not mention whether you have the right to requisition my things, now our weapons are better than yours, and the number is several times that of yours, where do you get the confidence to be arrogant in front of me?" Could it be that you have a brain disease? If that's the case, then I'll let you go today, although I'm jealous and hateful, but I've never seen like a psychopath, you can get out. He waved his hand as he spoke, as if he were driving away a swarm of flies.

Peng Hai did not jump like thunder as everyone imagined, but sneered and said viciously: "I'll tell you where my confidence comes from!" As he spoke, his hands were bluff, and there was an electric arc flickering and crackling in his palms.

Bai Ye said lightly: "It turned out to be an elemental evolutionary of the lightning system. ”

One of the subordinates who had been standing beside Peng Hai continued: "And me!" With that, the muscles of his body suddenly began to swell, turning into an exaggerated muscular man, and he slammed his fist into a large tree next to him, knocking that tree into a huge pit.

Bai Ye shrugged his shoulders indifferently, turned back to everyone and said, "Did you see that?" This is the great power of the bear, if you meet an evolutionary with this talent in the future, try to recruit it, and the heavy cavalry composed of the giant will be the strongest attacking force in the last days. ”

The group of people was confused by Bai Ye's attitude, the civilians they usually met, they would be very excited when they saw the evolutionary, either they couldn't worship it, or they were scared enough, even the soldiers of the regular army would be very respectful when they saw the evolutionary, and the team on the other side didn't feel anything, not only the young man with a bad attitude, but everyone in the entire team was like this, as if what they saw was not the evolutionary, but the cabbage that could be seen everywhere.

Peng Hai was a little surprised, but he still said arrogantly: "How did you think about it?" On behalf of the government, we are evolutionaries, and we have requisitioned a little of your things, but do you still want to resist violently? I can tell you, if an armed civilian force like you dares to stand up to the government, I can convict you of rioting, and even if you are killed, no one will give you a head out! ”
