Time flickered, on July 8th, after resting for almost five days, Lu Xing's right hand injury had healed ** points, and it was no problem to take heavy objects, and it would be completely recovered one day, and even the scars would not be left.

The temperature is getting lower and lower, and now it has dropped to more than ten degrees below zero, and the longer it drags on, the more difficult it will be for them to get on the road, and they must hurry up now, if it is next month, it will be basically impossible to rush, and it is best to find a place to wait until the temperature rises and go back.

Dressed in thick cotton clothes and carrying large backpacks, the two pulled the cart and left the hiding house and continued to walk forward.

The weather is cold, the water vapor exhaled from the mouth freezes in less than two seconds, and the road surface gradually freezes, easy to slip, and the forward speed becomes very slow, especially on this kind of rugged trail, you can't even walk five kilometers in an hour.

"Whew...... Finally back on the highway, that damn trail was too potholed! ”

Moving the trolley to the highway, Zhou Yunfeng gasped for breath several times, the previous section of the rugged trail took two hours to complete, less than two kilometers per hour, and it was much more tiring than expected.

"The low temperature brings low pressure, the air is thin, the breathing is not so smooth, every step we take is more difficult than normal weather, which is normal, and in a few days it will be more troublesome than now." After Lu Xing moved things over the shoulder, he panted and analyzed.

On the highway, although the road surface was also icy, the victory was that the road conditions were flat, and their forward speed suddenly increased, and it was not a problem to walk six or seven kilometers an hour.

After about six hours, Zhou Yunfeng was so tired that he was out of breath, his face was purple from the cold, and he picked up the telescope and looked into the distance.

A large metal sign appeared in sight, with information about the service area one kilometer ahead.

Seeing that it was only a kilometer away from the service area, Zhou Yunfeng was overjoyed, turned his head and said to Lu Xing: "There is a service area in front, where can we go to rest, and we will continue to rush tomorrow." ”

Lu Xing nodded, he had no opinion on this, and the two continued to walk forward, hoping to hurry into the rest area, rest well, and warm up their bodies by the way.

After walking for about twenty minutes, the service area has appeared in sight, and the distance is only about 100 meters.

"Well, what's that?" Zhou Yunfeng took a few steps forward, and suddenly saw something fly out of the service area and land on a parabolic trajectory, just beside the shoulder of the road more than twenty meters in front.

As soon as the unknown thing landed, Zhou Yunfeng's gaze also swept over, and he glanced at it a few times, and then with a surprised expression, he quickened his pace and approached the past.

"It's the polluter's head, how did it fly here?"

Zhou Yunfeng took a closer look, a little inexplicable, just flew out of the service area, and what fell here was actually a polluter's head, and this head was seriously deformed, the middle of the cheeks was concave, and the whole head looked like a U-shaped child.

Lu Xing also walked over and looked at it, and thought: "It's not flying over, it should be said that it was hit by something, judging from this degree of deformation, it should be that the cheek part was hit with a huge force, causing the head to be seriously deformed, and by the way, it was separated from the body, and finally flew here." ”

"Unlikely! How much power does this take, is there any perverted monster in the service area! Zhou Yunfeng listened to Lu Xing's analysis and couldn't help but smack his tongue.

He didn't think that the current human beings had the ability to do what Lu Xing said, and he suddenly felt that the service area was very dangerous.

"This is just my analysis, I can only be sure after confirming it with my own eyes, don't go into the service area first, let's observe the situation outside." Lu Xing suggested.

Zhou Yunfeng nodded, after listening to Lu Xing's words, he definitely didn't dare to enter it rashly.

The pace of the two slowed down a little, and soon came to the entrance of the service area, hid in a hidden position, picked up the binoculars in their hands, and observed the situation in the service area.

Not long after, Zhou Yunfeng's gaze was fixed on a certain corner of the wall, and a colorful figure appeared in his sight, most of his body was mostly green, with a lot of colorful markings, at a glance, it gave people a feeling of bright colors.

"Point the telescope at that corner." Zhou Yunfeng bumped Lu Xing's shoulder with his elbow and motioned for him to look over to the corner of the wall as well.

Soon, Lu Xing looked towards the position pointed by Zhou Yunfeng, and said after a while: "That seems to be a mantis shrimp." ”

"It's indeed a mantis shrimp, more precisely, a passertail mantis shrimp, but that head is too scary!" Zhou Yunfeng had already recognized what kind of creature it was, a passerine mantis shrimp, slightly smaller than an adult, and only this kind of mantis shrimp would have such a bright color.

"There's nothing strange about it, the polluted rooster last time was ridiculously big, it seems that this mantis shrimp has also become huge, but this thing originally lived in the sea, and it can survive on land, which is a little surprising to me." Lu Xing said.

The gigantic passertail mantis shrimp stayed at the hole in the corner of the wall, half of its body was exposed, and the remaining half of its body was in the hole, and there were many bones around it, I don't know what kind of creature it was.

"I know what's going on now, eighty percent of the polluter's head just now was knocked out by it, such a large mantis shrimp is indeed capable of doing it." Zhou Feng said with a slight squint.

"You're so sure, you seem to know this mantis shrimp very well."

It could be seen that Lu Xing didn't know much about this creature, and Zhou Yunfeng explained: "The attack speed of the mantis shrimp ranks second among the creatures known to humans, and this is still the case where there is resistance underwater......

"The passerback mantis shrimp has a bright appearance, which is the biggest feature, it has the most complex eye structure of all species on the earth, millions of light sensing cells in the eye, vision is far better than that of humans, the color vision range is ten times that of humans, and it can see ultraviolet and infrared rays."

"It is characterized not only by its bright colors and amazing eyesight, but also by its fierce and aggressive nature, and it can hit its prey continuously with its front cera, and the front part of the capturing limb can reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour, and it only takes one thousandth of a second to complete a single strike, which is the fastest punch of any animal known."

"According to the original body shape, it can already break the glass cylinder, I raised one before, broke several glass cylinders, and then died and I threw it away, as far as we see now, it is estimated that the steel plate can be deformed casually, so I said, the head that flew out just now was done by it."

After talking for a while, Zhou Yunfeng explained everything he knew, and he occasionally watched some animal-related documentaries, which he learned from them, and then went to buy one and came back to raise it, but it didn't take long before he hung up.

"Oh, so you've ever raised this creature, so it's no wonder you know that way. According to what you said, that mantis shrimp is indeed extremely dangerous, and we will be hit casually, and the lightest will be a broken limb. After listening to the introduction of the damselftail mantis shrimp, Lu Xing nodded.

Some creatures are huge in size, and they are not particularly dangerous, but there are still a very few creatures in the world whose abilities are extremely perverted, and once they become huge, they become extremely dangerous, and the finch tail mantis shrimp in front of them is one of them.

"But...... Even if this passertail mantis shrimp becomes huge, it can live without seawater, if those mantis shrimp in the sea become like this, then the seaside is not very dangerous! When Zhou Yunfeng thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a trace of fear in his heart.

"It's not as serious as you said, in a short period of time, it is impossible for a large number of huge creatures to appear, and you don't forget about other creatures in the sea, when the time comes, the creatures in the sea will definitely fight first, maybe the species of mantis shrimp will be removed from the earth, and we are now encountering this is a special case, it should be raised by the staff of the service area, and it has been greatly affected by evolutionary radiation and ran out......"

Lu Xing's views are not the same as Zhou Yunfeng's, and after considering many factors, he is not so pessimistic.

"Well, that's right, but I don't think it's very likely that the mantis shrimp will go extinct. But what to do now, I think it's better to forget about entering the service area. Zhou Yunfeng said.

"Don't rush to conclusions, that farrowtail mantis shrimp originally lived in the water, even if there is no sea water now, it is still alive, I estimate that the movement speed is not very fast, as long as the speed is slow, no matter how powerful it is, it is difficult to pose a threat to us." Lu Xing shook his head and said.

After listening to this, Zhou Yunfeng picked up the binoculars and looked at the sparrowtail mantis shrimp, and found that its three pairs of feet did not change much, they were all weaker than thin, and there was no problem in moving in the water, once it went ashore, it lost the buoyancy of the water, and it was difficult to support the weight of the body.

Its body structure is originally more conducive to living in the water, and now the shape has not changed much, and eighty percent is not suitable for activities on land, so the lower body has been staying in the hole, used to support the upper body, if you leave the hole, it is estimated that the movement will be very slow.

This may be the case now, but after a long time, there may be a corresponding evolution, and then it may not move slowly, and it will become very scary, at least not for now.

"You do have a point in saying this, find a way to confirm it, do you have any tentative suggestions?" Zhou Yunfeng thought about it carefully and realized that he hadn't thought it through enough just now.

"Come closer, I don't think it's going to leave the hole, it looks like it's just waiting for its prey to take the bait."

Looking at the small pile of bones next to him, Lu Xing continued: "But I'm very strange, the food that can be obtained here is absolutely limited, how can there be so many bones. ”

After the two discussed, they cautiously walked into the service area, relying on obstacles as cover to avoid being discovered as much as possible.

After a short time, the two came to a place about fifty meters away from the passertail mantis shrimp.

At that moment, a rat emerged out of nowhere, the size of a puppy. Next, to Zhou Yunfeng's surprise, this mouse actually ran towards the passerback mantis shrimp.

When the mouse was more than a meter away from the mantis shrimp, there was a sudden muffled sound, like a hammer hitting the cement floor, and the next moment, the mouse was divided, and at the same time, there was an extra pit on the ground.

"So fast!" In just the blink of an eye, the mouse was dismembered, the middle part of the body was smashed into meat sauce, and the mantis shrimp completed an attack in an instant, so fast that it was completely invisible to the naked eye.

As soon as the rat died, the mantis shrimp scooped up half of its body and began to eat its food, leaving only some white bones in less than five minutes.

The other half of the mouse's body was bounced to a distance of more than ten meters, and in order to get the other half of the food, it crawled out of the hole and went to get the half of the mouse's body back.

"It seems that this is indeed the case, it is not fast!" Looking at the dramatic scene in front of him, Zhou Yunfeng suddenly came to a conclusion.

The move of the damself-tailed mantis shrimp from the entrance of the cave immediately revealed its slow crawling characteristics, relying only on three pairs of feet to move the weight of the body, it looks very laborious, and the speed is particularly slow.

"I see!" At this moment, Lu Xing suddenly muttered in a low voice.

"What do you mean?" When Zhou Yunfeng heard this, he looked at Lu Xing suspiciously.
