Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Hidden Cave
In the middle of the vast mountains, a great river rushes down.
On both sides of the river, the roars of countless dinosaurs echoed in the mountains and forests.
In a mountain peak near the river, Yang Qian was leading his small team of Cretaceous adventures, trekking with difficulty.
It had been several days since they left the Sancha River Plain, and they had passed the waterpot with the giant toad and traveled down the river, encountering neither evolved creatures nor disturbing their journey with their eyes open.
Walking in the boundless wilderness, full of green plants and dinosaurs walking in between, from the huge seismosaurus to the small dragon no more than a dozen centimeters, Yang Qian can always feel the magic of life.
But now their journey to the plains was over, for the river was suddenly about to pass through a great mountain.
Looking at the high mountains on both sides of the river, Yang Qian naturally gave up the waterway and began to climb the mountains with his companions.
Originally, in order to exercise himself, he also tried not to rush in the river when he was on the plains, but now he was forced to give up taking the waterway in order to climb the mountain, just because the environment was different, and the same choice made Yang Qian unhappy.
"Be careful!"
Yang Gan, who was climbing the mountain, saw the little horned dragon in front of him with his head down and rampaging in early summer, and suddenly found a clump of vines in front of it, and immediately issued a warning.
All the members of the team immediately stood in place.
"It's okay, it's okay!"
Yang Qian waved his claws, climbed up the hillside, and then pointed to the vine.
"Wow!"
At this time, Hatsutsu, who saw the shape of the vine clearly, immediately screamed in fear, and then avoided the vine from a distance.
The members of the other teams all bypassed the vines, only Yang Gan swaggered too lazy to detour, and walked directly past the vines. As he passed, the vines, which looked like ordinary plants, seemed to be alive, and snakes were wrapped around him.
The predator demon was unmoved, still walking on the hillside with difficulty.
He is now practicing walking on two feet, and this kind of mountain forest, which is neither too steep nor too slow, is undoubtedly the best place for him to practice.
As for the vines that were entangled, he just walked as usual, and he easily tore them apart with all his brute force.
This is a plant that was found after entering the mountain, when I first saw them, I only ran into it stupidly in the early summer who was in a hurry and didn't look at the road, and directly crashed into the middle of the vine, if it weren't for Yang Gan's strength, it would be a little difficult to save it for a while.
And the queen Xiaofeilong and the others, although they didn't know this kind of vine, but when they approached, they could feel that the direction of the vine was inappropriate, and subconsciously avoided that place.
As for Xiaoqing, it was even more not, Yang Qian even suspected that it knew this plant.
Because before the little horned dragon was entangled in these vines in early summer, he seemed to hear the gloating cry of some unscrupulous little lizard on his head.
He couldn't understand most of the little lizard's calls, but there was one call that he could barely understand.
That's the little guy's cry when he's gloating.
However, it should be no longer necessary to see such a tangled plant in the way. Because this mountain has been turned over, and further away, it is a flat river.
"Whew!"
Finally climbed to the top of the mountain, looking ahead, Yang Qian was completely sure that under his feet was the last small peak of this mountain range.
Halfway up the hillside, he could see the plain along the river, but at that time he could only see a faint line, and now he was sure that he was in a good mood.
"Goo-goo-goo......"
The little dragon jumped up again, then flapped its wings and jumped around.
A small flying insect flew up from it, and then circled, flying in the direction of Yang Qian.
"Chirp!"
The little empty-tailed lizard, who didn't mind the delicious meal delivered to the door, accepted this "kindness" without hesitation.
This is a blood-sucking worm, and in the entire team, only Wyvern and Early Summer have become the "prey" of these little flying insects. Early summer is only occasionally attacked, and the little dragon is plagued by these little flying insects every day.
In fact, since the first time he walked out of the Enlightenment Mountain Range and the Sancha River Plain, Yang Qian found that the place where he was born and lived was simply a treasure of feng shui.
Although there are bloodsuckers there, they are definitely not as arrogant as the mountains and forests here. Moreover, there is no such vine that actively entangles animals there, and you don't need to think about it to know that once a dinosaur is really entangled and can't break free, the end will probably be miserable.
And there are a lot of colorful snakes in the mountains and forests here, and they don't look like anything to mess with.
"Let's go! It's downhill! ”
Looking at the large golden forest at the foot of the mountain, Yang Qian felt in a good mood, although any vine vampire insects, including poisonous snakes, could not cause him harm, but his companions were not all like him with scale armor, and not all of them were as agile as the queen to kill the small bloodsuckers flying in the air with their claws.
With Yang Gan's loud shout, all the members of the team began to run towards the bottom of the mountain.
But soon, under the leadership of the queen, the little dragons, who were as light as the queen, soon reached the halfway point of the mountain, although they were running rumbling but not slow in early summer, and then they realized that they seemed to have once again left their largest companion behind.
Yang Qian was struggling to descend the mountain, because he was about to go out of the mountain and was relaxed, forgetting that he was going down the mountain at the slowest speed, and as soon as he waved his claws happily, he was thrown at the back by his companions.
The body with long hind limbs and short forelimbs is difficult to increase when going down, not to mention that compared with the two hind limbs like a spring like the queen, even the little horned dragon in early summer, he can't compare.
The companions did not wait for him, but paused for a moment, looked back at him, and continued to run down the mountain.
The small horned dragon in early summer is like a stone rolling down from a mountain; The little dragon is like a flea, jumping around; And the queen, looking at its light and flying-like posture, the predator grinned: show what!
Seeing that the gap with his companions was getting bigger and bigger, Yang Qian listened to the sound of the river flowing below his ears, and slowly swayed to the cliff by the river.
Even the narrowest part of the river on the plain is several times wider than the narrow river under the cliffs on both sides at this time, so the river below has become extremely turbulent and thrilling.
Like a trapped beast, it roars and rushes, no longer like when it was on the plains, it is a gentle mother river, which feeds hundreds of millions of lives along the river; Instead, it has become a ferocious monster that seems to be able to swallow any life.
However, Yang Qian just glanced at it, then shook his head, shook off the little green above his head, and then jumped and fell towards the river below like the roar of a fierce beast.
"Bang!"
Even if he fell from the middle of the mountain, even if he had a huge body, the sound of falling water and the roar of the river at this time became a faint sound, and it was not even as loud as the sound of the river slapping against the rocks.
I entered the river, stabilized my body with the flow of the river, and then I felt deaf in both ears.
The roar of the river echoing between the two cliffs completely filled his ears, making him almost stop thinking except for going down the river.
Almost in the blink of an eye, he felt that the heavens and the earth suddenly returned to tranquility, and then he found that he had already left the mountain, and the golden woods not far in front of him were beckoning to him.
He looked back, then turned his head and was about to swim towards the woods, but looked back again in confusion.
At the point where the river was about to widen, there was a huge cave under the cliff. The bottom of the cave is almost the same as the river, or a little higher, but the river is not calm, so it looks like the river is higher.
Yang Qian just glanced at it, and swam in the direction of the golden woods.
You must go to the grove before those unrighteous guys, otherwise you will be too faceless.
He swung his tail and accelerated instantly, coupled with the speed of the river that had just come out of the mountain, it was really as fast as lightning.
When the queen hurried to the woods, she saw the predator slowly climb up the shore from the river, and then let out a long and triumphant roar.
Yang Gan, who won his companions with shameless means, found that the crocodile was really in good spirits on happy occasions, and he actually knew the trees in this woods. Ignoring the group of dinosaurs on the other side of the woods in the distance, he carefully looked at the giant trees around him.
This is a ginkgo tree.
It's really rare, he also knows a lot of other pines and cypresses, but unfortunately, he can't name the specific name when he knows it. This ginkgo tree is the only plant he can call out his name clearly.
Although in his memory, the ginkgo tree near his hometown in his previous life, which required four or five friends to hug, seemed so far away, but seeing this familiar tree again at this moment, in this time and space separated by tens of millions of years, still made him feel inexplicably kind.
After waiting for a while, Chuxia and Xiaofeilong also rushed over, and finally Xiaoqing, who was late.
At this time, Yang Qian was busy on a boulder in the woods, and when he was done, there were a few more meaningless and strange symbols on the boulder.
It was Yang Qian naming the ginkgo forest.
It's just that it was quiet for a while, and Yang Qian was a little idle again.
Because of the trouble of bloodsucking insects, even the queen had a hard time resting well in the mountains and forests, and now she suddenly relaxed, and after resting for a while, she became a little drowsy.
Seeing this, he didn't plan to continue on his way.
Then he couldn't stay idle, and he remembered the hidden cave under the cliff he had just seen in the upper reaches of the river.
When you go down the river, you only feel effortless, but when you swim upstream against the rushing river, it is not so comfortable.
Especially the section of the river sandwiched by the cliffs on both sides took Yang Gan's great effort. Thinking about the countless fish that swim upstream from here to spawn every year, Yang Qian is really impressed.
The cave finally arrived, and at a glance, Yang Gan, who saw the bottom of the cave, was a little disappointed, and was about to leave, when he suddenly found that the small stream on the ground of the cave, at the back of the cave, seemed to have turned a corner, and from there, there was a faint light coming.
