It's like lice don't itch if you have too many lice.

Huai Shi found that when you have too many problems to face, people will be strangely calm.

Recently, he has been immersed in confusion and anxiety about the future, but when he is thrown into the wilderness, he is suddenly shocked by his unwitting impetuous mentality.

Not only the growing confidence, but also the anxiety that has gradually accumulated along the way.

Today's journey of suffering is like a slap in the face towards Huai Shi.

The slap was loud.

Beatings from outside society woke him up from his meaningless contemplation.

- Fool, don't ink so much.

Think of something you can figure it out!

No matter how complex and dark the past is, no matter how distant the future is, people can't make a choice......

There is no doubt that these are things that people should face seriously and think carefully.

But it's more important to be in the moment.

The harsh reality forced Huai Shi to the ground again, forcing him, like everyone else, to use his legs to start the difficult trek, regaining the sense of survival he once had.

Huai Shi felt joy and fulfillment for this.

Realizing his powerlessness and limits did not make him depressed, but became more and more happy.

With the passage of time and the difficult early stage, Huai Shi gradually became familiar with this too barren world.

Those pollution clouds from the edge of Australia have disappeared at some point.

But new troubles are becoming apparent.

Headwaters.

On the evening of the sixth day, Huai Shi got up and counted her reserves, and suddenly found that she had consumed one-third of her drinking water.

We haven't reached a fifth of the way yet.

Water is not enough.

After three rounds of calculations and repeated reductions in the daily drinking quota for the rest of the day, even if it was reduced to a baseline sufficient for survival, there was still a huge gap.

Huai Shi's pencil tapped the notebook in his hand, and he fell into distressed thoughts.

In fact, no matter how much you reduce your intake, it is still not the solution to the problem.

There are only three options before him at the moment.

The first is to turn around and return immediately, counting the risks on the road and the possibility of getting lost, how can the remaining two-thirds of the water be enough to support him to return to Darwin and make another round of supplies.

Luckily, he still had enough money.

It's a big deal to find a bad guy near the town, enforce the law, and have everything, maybe you can get a car.

Second, from now on, correct the direction and go east, so that if he controls his intake, he will be able to reach the Gulf of Queensland before he has drunk the current water. When the time comes, as many water sources can be replenished calmly.

But the biggest problem is that the Gulf of Queensland is still a radiation area, and it is still within the scope of the Astronomical Society's key monitoring. After more than 100 years, the radiation there still has not returned to a safe range, but it is still more or less within the tolerance range of the mountain ghosts.

But Huai Shi didn't know if he could maintain his current physical strength and energy after eating the water and food in the radiation area, and whether it was possible to cross the desert in front of him and reach Canberra.

To bet.

And if the first one is the safest, and the second one can be regarded as a small gamble, then the third option is a big gamble.

That is, the head iron is hard and reckless.

Bet yourself on finding a new source of water in the ruins of a former city.

If you make a bet, you can get to Canberra for a big meal, if you can't make a bet...... He had to sit on the bench of the Astronomical Society's emergency rescue team and eat cold food.

It's not a matter of life, after all, the efficiency of the astronomical society is there.

But it's too humiliating.

I don't want to challenge nature, but after I turn over, I have to wait for my good brothers to save me - it's even more ridiculous than an amateur donkey friend who walks blindly and ends up having an accident and hitting 110.

Three options.

Huai Shi was in a tangle.

The first one is the safest, the second is the most stable, and the third is the fastest.

But isn't there a way to be safe, stable, and fast?

The crow looked at his innocent appearance of wanting to eat farts beside him, and finally couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help sighing: "Can you be a little more conscious...... You're a mountain ghost, huh?"

"Huh?" Huai Shi was dazed.

"Did all that plant life in you have been saved for nothing?"

The crow rolled his eyes: "Are you showing you the structure of so many biospheres along the way? Theoretically, as long as there is a place where you can take root, you will not die of thirst and starvation, why are you so ashamed?"

"Huh?"

Huai Shi was dumbfounded, "Can it still be like this?"

"Why not?"

The crow asked rhetorically: "Yin ghosts can be specialized into earthbound spirits, red-clothed ghosts, and headless ghosts, why can't mountain ghosts adjust their own families?"

Feeling the crow's eyes, 'the whole family is disappointed in you', Huai Shi closed his eyes suspiciously.

Trying...... Turn yourself into a vegetative person.

Well, he was already vegetative, but this time, he was going to correct himself again from a matryoshka hybrid vegetative that originally belonged to the 'subtropical monsoon climate region'.

For the time being, other unnecessary species and trees are sealed, and then specialized into a monomorphic living vegetative in a 'tropical desert climate'.

It minimizes its own water consumption and improves the efficiency of digestion to adapt to the harsh environment of alternating high temperature and high cold in the desert.

The main constituent populations are Sedumaceae, Cactaceae, Apricot family, Liliaceae and so on......

Visible to the naked eye, the essentia fluctuations on Huai Shi's body began to decline rapidly, as if diving.

He hadn't stored much of the abyssal plants in the first place, and now that he had stripped and sealed the other family ecosystems from his body, he felt his strength begin to decline like a dive.

The mountain ghost's stigma was rapidly shrinking and drying up, and in the end, the only remaining plant species were only enough to support the intricate roots that spread out of the rift in his chest to support a field of about four inches, and it was difficult to even cover his entire body.

Incredibly, Huai Shi felt her breathing light. It's a rare feeling...... A tiny amount of water vapor in the air.

I have become weaker, but I have experienced a rare pleasure.

The heat and dryness that plagued me were rapidly weakening, and although they did not completely leave, they remained stable at the level of only a little heat and dryness.

And his own tolerance threshold is rising rapidly, and the unbearable thirst of the past is now insignificant.

When Huai Shi opened her eyes, she felt that something was wrong.

His hair was rapidly shrinking and getting shorter!

In Huai Shi's horrified expression, the originally waist-length long hair had shrunk to the point that it couldn't even tie the hair rope, and it became a long-lost shortness.

I lost my hair myself!

"Which desert plant have you ever seen?" the crow shook his head helplessly, "What are you panicking about? Do you think it's just hair?"

Then, Huai Shi noticed.

His skin is rapidly roughening, no longer as tough and soft as before, but rapidly hardening, becoming hard and yellowish.

And the pores of the whole body are also shrinking rapidly, and after reaching the limit, a layer of imperceptible fine fluff extends out of the pores, and with Huai Shi's movements, it sways slightly in the air that is difficult to see the naked eye.

Flexibly captures every wisp of moisture.

Huai Shi picked up the spoon and poured a little water on the back of her hand.

I saw that the drop of water quickly decreased under the absorption of countless small fluffs, and finally it was completely absorbed by his skin.

After doubling the resistance, the ability to absorb and store water is also amazingly improved.

Although limited by the limits of the human body itself, it cannot really be as thirsty as Populus euphratica is so thirsty that it can still survive after a few years of suspended animation.

However, the demand for drinking water has been reduced to about one-fifth of what it used to be.

This is also because all the plant vitality stored by Huai Shi's type is ordinary, if he can get more desert plants in the abyss, I am afraid that he can take root on the spot now, and he doesn't even need water.

In fact, Huai Shi can also forcibly plunder the vitality and water of other plants to feed themselves.

It's just that after being a mountain ghost for so long, Huai Shi really doesn't want to do anything to those plants that have always been helpful to him.

Enough water for Huaishi to drink a sip of water, they can live for more than half a year.

Even the desert plants, no matter how much they rejected foreign plants, did not completely refuse to serve Huaishi.

The mountain ghosts themselves rely on the plant ecology to survive, and if the ecology is destroyed, the mountain ghosts have no place to stand. Unless it is dying and not smoking, Huai Shi generally will not consider such a cruel method.

After three adjustments, the new desert ecosystem in Huaishi's body has finally been built.

At this moment, Huai Shi in the mirror has become yellow, a short-haired boy with rough skin, and even his lips are faintly revealing a hint of brown.

His pupils were covered with a new layer of film, which shrank the loss of water to the greatest extent.

Specialization is done.

He managed to transform himself into a tropical desert vegetative person.

And the mountain ghost stigmata is no longer dull and slow as before, but runs smoothly again, completely completing the adaptation to the desert environment.

Huai Shi couldn't help but start reflecting.

Are you a little used to it?

After getting used to fighting for everything, it is only now that I have comprehended the most commonly used techniques of these ordinary mountain ghosts.

Each stigmata has its merits, especially the celestial genealogy created by the Astronomical Society's exhaustive search of the mythological source texts of the whole realm, and each stigmata of each path has been endowed with many characteristics long before it was born.

It can be said that each has its own unique field.

If it weren't for the crow's reminder, Huai Shi would never have thought that he could adjust the ecological circle in his body and adapt to the external environment in turn.

"Do you know the benefits of krypton?"

The crow glanced at him: "Think about how much the average mountain ghost can bear, and then compare yours." The civilian version of the one that can fit three biomes is already well-planned. Where can anyone be like you, without restraint, touching all the way to the point where the body is enough to simulate all the ecological environment in the current world?"

"Are Krypton players so powerful?" Huai Shi was dumbfounded.

"Otherwise, the kind of shameful thing that was hung and beaten by a non-krypton seal can only show one thing, that is, he doesn't have enough krypton. ”

The crow shook his head, flapped his little wings, and stepped on the top of Huai Shi's head: "Okay, don't stink and be beautiful, walk and walk, the road is still long." ”

Huai Shi packed up her things, picked up the saddle bag again, and felt her feet sinking.

My own muscle strength has also deteriorated?

Fortunately, there are not many weak ones, and they are still within the range of bearing.

As the twilight gradually rose, Huai Shi embarked on the journey again.

For some reason, when he turned around, he could always hear a faint sound echoing at the end of the sky.

It was an illusionary roar of thunder.

"It's going to rain?"
