Chapter 17 Into the Plant Kingdom
There was a huge rock at the entrance of the temple, because they knew that there might be mutated plants inside the temple, so the Stanley group did not use explosives to get it open, and the contents of the province escaped.
"Go this way, I saw a tree over there, just enough to enter the temple from above." Jessica pointed in the direction to the left of the temple gate and said.
The crowd followed Jessica to the big tree she had said, and it was indeed very large, and its thick branches had climbed directly up the walls of the temple, and they could climb it without much effort.
Actually, it would have been possible to have Jessica take them there, but neither Jessica nor Stanley had any stubble, and the big men were reluctant to let a girl carry her to the temple wall.
Zheng Shangqi exhaled deeply, and then jumped back and forth between the tree trunk and the wall, and came to the wall as fast as a monkey; Stanley himself could do the same, and after lowering a rope, he did the same, and the rope jumped up and down to the wall, and stood there with Zheng Shangqi.
"Come one by one, grab the rope and we'll pull you up." Stanley said to the people below.
"OK, so be it." Locke nodded slightly, it was faster than climbing the trees one by one.
"Oh, in that case, I'll take the Super Killer Girl up." Jessica heard the words and came to Mindy's side, put her arms around the other party's waist, and flew directly onto the wall.
After a while, all the personnel had already gone up to the top of the wall, the width of the wall was very thick, and everyone stood on it and did not look crowded, but when they went down, they found a strange plant below, Professor Martin stopped Zheng Shangqi, who was about to jump down, and then took a flashlight, squatting on the city wall to observe carefully.
"It's a poisonous thistle, and it looks like it's mutated, you see his thorns are so big, if you puncture the skin, you might poison people." Professor Martin said with a scared expression.
"So insidious?" Corson twitched, he was about to jump.
"Professor, where can you go down?" The people who were present about these plants were no better than Professor Martin and Locke.
"Wait a minute, Locke and I have to take a closer look, and there are a lot of mutated plants here, I'm not sure they really aren't poisonous." Professor Martin said.
"Otherwise, let's go up here." Zheng Shangqi said that he was talking about walking on the wall.
"Don't bother so much, we just burn it." Crossbones sneered and prepared to fire.
"Alas, wait a minute, after some plants are burned, they will emit toxic gases, and they can't be messed around, so you have to be cautious." Locke stopped Crossbones.
"Anyway, it's not so anxious, let's find it slowly." Stanley shrugged, although he was not afraid of death, but it would be too pitiful to be killed by these messy poisonous weeds, the most wretched traverser who would be scolded to death.
In this way, Professor Martin and Locke lay on the wall, carefully looking for a place to go down, and then after about ten minutes, they really should have found it.
Locke pointed to a purple bush of grass with a little excitement and said, "You can go down over there, and it should be the antidote to the mutated tribulus toxin." ”
"How can you be sure?" Crossbone asked strangely.
"Nature is fair, and wherever poisons are infested, there is always an antidote to them." Locke said with a smile.
Almost everyone here has heard of this sentence, and Rock and Professor Martin are both professionals, so they don't doubt it. Walking from the fence to the place where the purple grass was, everyone also saw that the poisonous thistle terrestris in the vicinity was forcibly separated by the purple grass, leaving a path half a meter fast.
"No matter how you look at it, it's not natural growth." Stanley looked at the purple path and realized that it was really not a short road.
"Maybe these thistles were created by the people who built the temple at that time, or alien creatures to protect the temple." Mindy said.
"Well, I'd love to say that it's not an alien, but there seems to be some truth to what you're saying." Locke touched his chin, then looked closely, and found that sure enough, this purple grass was really a straight road.
"Let's go down, all the mysteries are in the temple." Professor Martin also noticed this phenomenon and was very excited for a while.
They went down very carefully, and then walked in this dark temple, because they did not know what danger was inside, and walked very cautiously, and along the way Professor Martin sometimes suddenly asked everyone to stop, and then carefully distinguish the grass or plants in front of them, and then pointed out a way.
"The people who built this place are really chicken thieves, I thought all the purple grass here was a road, who knew there were some poisonous weeds mixed in it." Corson said with a scared look on his face.
Just as they were walking, Professor Martin suddenly stopped Curson who was opening the way in front, and then asked Curson to retreat, picked up a magnifying glass and carefully observed the purple grass in front, and then found that this was not the same type as the previous purple plant, but a plant with a high poison, if you stepped on it and accidentally cut the skin of this thing, there would be no salvation on this desert island.
"These are some ancient protections, just to protect the temple from outsiders, just like the various mechanisms and curses in those cemeteries." Locke smiled.
"So everyone is still cautious, cautious, and cautious, the other party is not arranging these for the sake of looking good, but to put the intruder to death." Professor Martin gasped slightly, and as the elder in the team, he found that his physical strength was a little exhausted.
"Professor, I'll help you." Zheng Shangqi saw Professor Martin's face and walked over to help him.
"Thank you, alas, I'm old, although I don't want to admit defeat, but human beings, there is really no way to beat time, it doesn't matter how famous you are, you can't escape death in the end." Professor Martin said with a slight sigh.
"Yes, time is really powerful, I think this temple should have been a building with a special status in a certain civilization, but now it has become a kingdom of plants." After hearing Professor Martin's emotion, Corson also said.
Stanley was walking with a girl in the back, and when he heard the words of Professor Martin and Kou Shen, he blinked his eyes, time is indeed very powerful, but it is a pity that he lost the dignity of the reason in front of him, and was controlled by a mysterious scale, so what is this judgment scale? Stanley shook his head slightly, but this is not the time to think about this, he will know one day, well, when his 'merit' is enough, he will know everything.
