Chapter 2 The waters of the Wanjiang River
The twenty little kings who went to Sirius for the trial were talking and laughing and planning to go from their camping place to the primeval forest where the indigenous people lived, not only to find out the water flow of the entire area, but also to understand all the geological structures, and to discuss the plan for the final harvesting of power stones, and even the way to go back.
Meng Meng's face was calm, as if he was a little worried. This was by no means caused by Fang Cai's joke, but she didn't know anything about the original folks of Sirius. Including these kings, the video materials when studying in the Sanctuary are not perfect. Therefore, on this trip, the Sanctuary Academy also gave them an additional task: to collect and organize the complete information of Sirius, not only to understand the geological structure, nor to be limited to three-dimensional image representation, but to use various data and experiences to tell whether this barren Sirius still has the value of use and development.
Every time the space voyage is consumed, it is very depleted, which makes the sages of the Sanctuary also a headache, but to maintain the defense system of the entire Sanctuary is quite expensive, and the neighboring planets are all developed to the point that they can no longer be developed, so this trip to Sirius will be born.
If the little kings can't get some treasures according to the way of the competition, they must at least collect information and let more powerful sages come to invade this planet. But Sirius's position in the Star Palace cannot be underestimated, located between the White Tiger and Xuanwu, that is, under their common protection. Even if the current Ancient Four Spirits disappeared without a trace after the Battle of the Flood Desolation, the protection set up at that time may not be consumed, otherwise how could the energy fluctuations be detected?
After the whole thing is done, the small contradictions caused by the first love between boys and girls also disappear. In the face of tasks, those small frictions are not important, and now we have to work together to face unknown challenges.
After Meng Mengmei saw everyone's lottery, she smiled and said, "After the lottery is played, I will act according to the two groups." We'll meet here in a month. ”
"Hmm. ”
"Okay, then I'll make sure about the list of groups now. Group A: Bingbing, Meng Meng, Zeze, Jinghui, Xiahou Jun, Wen Jinbing, Tao Quan, Madman, Ma Changlan, Jun Yue. Group B: Sima Jie, *Ling, Liu Piaofen, Zhang Yuanjian, Jian Jungui, Bai Cong, Li Dashu, Guantu, Zhang Chun, Concubine Xiao. ”
Everyone looked at the jade plaque in their hands that disappeared as Meng Meng read the name, and their faces were full of caution. This is not a game, but a field practice. One is not good, and they will die.
Meng Meng said lightly: "Now choose your own captain, don't let the other team know your own route and information." If we don't get ore or other items, we will have to rely on our own information to return to the Sanctuary in the end. Maybe only one of us will be able to go back. ”
Her voice was very thin, but she looked at the little kings who had lived with her for decades. Perhaps, this is the farewell of some of them. In decades of getting along, for various reasons, they can't even arouse any ripples in each other's hearts. This chemistry is very subtle, and once you decide who you like, it seems that you can't be uncovered by anyone. And Meng Meng, who likes Zeze, is an indisputable fact. However, the academy has rules prohibiting romance, and if they want to go to the path of the sage, they must follow the cultivation method.
She had wondered if she would be expelled from the Sanctuary if she didn't follow the Academy's requirements, so she would have to find a better planet to place this soul that had been damaged countless times. And the current potential development of the rest of the little kings is not complete, and I don't know if this time into the primeval forest will hurt the "friendship" because of the uncontrollable potential.
......
After the two teams separated, their respective captains were elected. Meng Meng's team, she became the captain, and the other team, Liu Piaofen, became the captain.
Bingbing and the others followed Meng Meng for a day and a night before sneaking into the primeval forest in the dark, and the oncoming miasma made everyone stagnate.
"There must be a water source in this hellish place. ”
Five beautiful women sat around the ground, waiting for the five young men to find food nearby. Suddenly, the madman with a high ponytail jumped up, pointed to the fog miasma that could be seen more than ten meters in front of him and complained, "There is no water, how can there be a fog miasma?"
Meng Meng also stood up and took out a small long sword from her backpack, which grew larger and longer as her mind drove it, and glowed with a ghostly light.
"What are you doing?" asked Jinghui softly.
Meng Meng walked directly towards the misty miasma with a long sword in his hand, "Can I try to split this ghost thing?"
As the words fell, the long sword in her hand had already slashed towards the misty miasma, but the misty miasma bounced her back with strength and fell to the ground.
"Damn, this ghost mist miasma is so powerful. Beauties, eat some rabbit meat first, and then we'll think about breaking the miasma. The square-faced Wen Jinbing was holding a few gray fat and big rabbits in his hands, and he began to shout from afar. ”
He suddenly threw a lively rabbit at the location of several beautiful women, and the gray rabbit immediately slipped away. When he saw a few beautiful women who were so tired that they didn't even take food, he yelled, "Uh-uh, don't let it go, or we'll get an army of rabbits back to eat us." ”
Jun Yue, who was emaciated, looked back at the rabbit that was running away, and with a flick of his fingers, he released a white silk net to wrap the rabbit. "You have the most slippery mouth, get it over and burn it. ”
"Where's the water?" the madman ran forward, carrying the heavy white wire net, and looked coquettishly at the men who had found food one after another.
The horse spear carried a three-zhang silver spear, and on the tip of the spear hung a strange string of fruit, the shell of which was wrapped in solid palm-like fibers, "This fruit is full of water, I have analyzed it, pure and unpolluted." ”
"What kind of fruit is this?" Jun Yue threw out a white wire net, and pulled a fruit directly from his silver spear in the distance in front of him, and this speed can be regarded as a second. She looked at the fruit in front of her and smiled and said, "Peel off the palm, there should still be a thick layer of wooden shell." ”
"It's still a great beauty, and this fruit is like this. There is a forest over there, full of these 'fruit' trees, each tree is dozens of meters high, and there are countless branches, and there are many fruits hanging on each branch. Some of the fruit is very large, and if you want to take a bath, I will find a bigger fruit and poke a hole in it with a spear, and there will be a steady stream of water for you to take a cool and clean shower. Ma Lance's cheeks were very white, and his slightly curly hair was dripping with brew.
Meng Meng, who had just been deflated in the miasma and was covered in thin mud, saw that several men were washed "oily and slippery", and couldn't help but sulk a little, "Ma Changshu, how to get to the forest." ”
Ma Changshu sneered, looked at Zeze behind him, and said lightly: "Dream Beauty, do you want bodyguards to accompany you?"
"No, I don't. ”
Jinghui stood up, ran her short sweaty hair with her slender fingers, and said softly, "Meng Meng, let's go take a bath together." ”
"Oh, the beauty is going to take a shower, should we go and take a peek. Wen Jinbing threw the other rabbits in his hand to Xiahou Jun, "Slaughter the rabbits, I'll burn them." ”
Xiahou Jun was stunned and speechless, but took out a sharp saber from his backpack and stabbed it directly into the rabbit's neck.
When the rabbit was not out of breath, Bingbing placed a wooden frame in front of him, hung the dying rabbit upside down, skillfully peeled off the rabbit's skin and threw it on a large clean stone nearby to dry, and then broke the rabbit's belly, took out all the internal organs and threw them into the deep pit dug by the women when they had nothing to do before.
"If you eat game, it won't taste good when you see water. It is clean and tender to eat this way. As he spoke, Bingbing cut off the rabbit's head with a small dagger, and the rabbit's red eyes were still fluttering, and he must still be conscious, or he felt that he had died unjustly.
"Bury the rabbit's head, it looks scary and bloody. Meng Meng, Jinghui and other beauties got up and went to bathe in the direction of the "fruit" tree forest, while the men killed and ate in front of the miasma at the entrance of the primeval forest.
"Except for horses and spears who can play with fire, who else can make food?" Bingbing buried himself in his work, constantly asking these kings who knew magic and immortal arts. After all, he only entered the academy later, and he didn't understand the superpowers they could play at all, so every time the team practiced, the simplest rough work was Bingbing dry. Fortunately, he had a fragment of an old book, and two elves lived in it, which gave him a little confidence to stand with these kings.
"The translucent fish in the lake ten miles away looks like it has no intestines, so maybe it can be eaten without opening its intestines. Zeze went to visit the lake, but the lake was very deep, and after emitting a laser light wave, it could only cause panic among the fish in the shallow waters, and could not hurt the creatures in the unknown waters at all. He didn't dare to go any further, for fear of disturbing the behemoth's water monster.
"There is a lake and the beauties are still wasted on fruits, what if we have to rely on those fruits for our subsequent water supply?" Bingbing frowned, a little angry.
Ma Changshu looked at him and said with a smile: "Bingbing, you are used to living in the forbidden land of the West Mountain, and you are not afraid of parasites with natural water. However, Meng Meng's skin is delicate, and they have not been exposed to natural water, so they are afraid that the microorganisms in them like to eat their meat. ”
"Bingbing is right, in case we are abandoned here, we still have to do our future plans. If we were to divert water from the lake to the mountain range where we camped, divide the river and plant herbs and other supplies in the fields for subsequent needs, it would destroy the primitive ecological balance, and we would have no food of our own, and it would be difficult to tame all kinds of animals. When the time comes, we will only be their food in their mouths or what they consider to be their natural enemies. To accomplish all this, it is necessary to open up a vast meadow from here to the camping base. It's going to be a huge agricultural water project, and it has to be done secretly, so that these animals can't find out. Ze Ze hurriedly agreed with Bingbing's words, he knew that Bingbing had lived alone in the forbidden land of Xishan for decades since he was a child, and he lived by hunting. But the sudden appearance of twenty of them was not so easy to hide, not to mention that there was still a task to be done.
"I'm going to draw a map, so as not to always shout at the lake and the forest, and confuse everyone's sense of direction. The lake and the surrounding forest area that Zeze found are called the waters of the Wanjiang River. The fruit grove is called the Beauty Grove. ......”
