Chapter 11: The Old Tree Mission
"Convoy, let's go!" Tang Yingxue waved his hand, and the engines of the entire convoy and cars roared at the same time!
Mighty!
Lao Hu sat in the back seat of an off-road vehicle and was sandwiched by two horses, one on the left and one on the right, and Lao Hu's hands were still tied. Looking around, there are more than a dozen cars that Lao Hu can see, and none of the motorcycles, which may have been abandoned. Three buses followed the road, and finally a tanker.
I drove along the road to the city center, but it only took more than ten minutes before it became foggy.
"PM2.5 has arrived in Coal City?!" The driver who drove the car looked like a college student.
"Well, now the smog is serious, and the industrial structure is unreasonable. "There was a woman sitting next to her, like her mother.
"Hey, it's the same as the end of the world, and I don't know if there will be industry in the future. The college student's voice was muffled.
For a while, the woman lost the interest in talking.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the sky, followed by a large amount of smoke rolling from high to low not far ahead, apparently something had fallen from the sky.
"The plane crashed?!," said the college student driving the car in disbelief. In the fog, you can only see billowing smoke, and nothing else can be seen.
Lao Hu originally expected these eyes to see through the thick fog, but who knew that he couldn't see through it, and it was a white expanse of thirty meters out.
"Drive the car and don't worry about anything else. "That aunt didn't want to put her family in danger.
"Hmm. ”
drove the car and walked up the mountain. There is a section of this road leading to the city center on a mountain ridge, which is said to be a mountain range, but in fact it is only seven or eight meters high from the bottom of the hillside, and seven or eight meters is not much longer on flat ground, but it is equivalent to the height of a three- or four-story building in height! The environment is starting to get gloomy.
The convoy slowed down and raised its vigilance, and suddenly a huge branch wrapped up all the vehicles in the entire convoy!! and the aunt in the car let out an exclamation.
"What's going on?!" Hu didn't know what was going on.
Fortunately, the branch only caught the car, and did not go on a killing spree.
Some people got out of the car and saw a huge tree growing from the bottom of the hillside. The tree resembled a human, with eyes, a nose, a mouth, and two branches that resembled arms.
"Traveler, there is danger ahead, where are you going, do you need help?" said the old tree's friendly voice.
Tang Yingxue looked at the old tree, the handle of the knife on his face was faintly crawling, he and Tang Er looked at each other a few times, and said, "What danger is ahead, what kind of help do you give us?"
Tang Er also looked at the old tree in disbelief, when did the earth become so dangerous?
Lao Hu also can't believe it, this is the ancient earth?
"What's up ahead, you can go and see, I can only say it's very dangerous!" Old Tree continued: "Let's play a game, if you answer correctly, I will reward you." ”
Tang Yingxue thought for a while and said, "We want to go to the center of the city, I'm afraid you won't be able to help us, right?"
"Hehe, as long as you finish the task and answer correctly, I will send you over. If you go, at least half of them will die. "The mouths on the old trees are also opening and closing.
"What kind of mission is that, and what happens if we answer incorrectly?"
"The task is random, if you answer incorrectly, you are fine, I will let you go, just like this!" After saying that, the old tree waved the branch, and an empty off-road vehicle was thrown out by the branch!
Tang Yingxue swallowed her saliva wordlessly, glanced at Tang Er a few times, and asked if it was a spell or a combination? The two exchanged eyebrows for a while, and Tang Yingxue said, "Okay, we accept it." ”
Tang Yingxue made up her mind that if she couldn't complete the task, it would not be too late.
Tang Yingxue took out the old beard, threw it on the ground, and said to the old tree: "He is the first to take the task." ”
Lao Hu was sad and angry, and scolded. And Tang Yingxue didn't care about Lao Hu at all.
"Young man, think about your words and deeds. Lao Shu held back all Lao Hu's scolding words in one sentence. "This mission requires three people, plus two of you. Lao Shu's hand directly pulled Lao Hu, Tang Yingxue, and Tang Erfen together, and the finger-like branches were buckled to the ground, becoming three rooms, one for each person!
"Each of you and I put a red dot or a green dot on your forehead, or no dot, and when you meet in a while, if you see at least one person with a red dot on his forehead, raise his hand, and then say what color dot is on his forehead, and the answer is correct, I will send you to the center of the city, and the answer is wrong, hehe???" The old tree said this, smirking proudly.
Lao Hu just wanted to shout, he was still helped, and he couldn't raise his hand, and as soon as he stretched out with a branch, he cut the oiled rope at once. "If this is drawn on people, it will be broken, right?" thought to himself. The branch tapped on Lao Hu's forehead.
Immediately afterward, the three treehouses were merged into a single treehouse. The three of them faced each other, Lao Hu found that Tang Er and Tang Yingxue had red spots on their foreheads, and hurriedly raised their hands, while Tang Yingxue and Tang Si also found that there were red spots on each other's heads and raised their hands.
"Tell me, what color is the dot on your forehead?" said the old tree's voice.
The three of them didn't answer, staring at each other wide-eyed.
More than two minutes passed, and the old tree's impatient voice sounded, "Say it quickly." During this time, the Tang brothers were also flirting with each other, but they didn't understand the meaning of each other's eyes.
As a result, no one spoke.
"You say. A branch casually pointed at Tang Si.
"Green ??? Green dots?" the answer Tang Si said turned out to be a question sentence.
"You say. The branch pointed at Lao Hu again.
"Red ??? Red?" Lao Hu is also a question sentence.
"It's your turn. The branch pointed at Tang Yingxue again.
"Green ??? Green?" Tang Yingxue was also unsure. But it must be consistent with the brother's answer, at least there is a response.
"One got it right, two got it wrong. "Lao Shu's words, Lao Hu understood.
After speaking, a branch tied up the two Tang brothers, and seemed to shake it slightly, but the person flew directly into the fog, listening to the shouts of the two brothers, Lao Hu was at least two hundred meters away! "Wow??? Ha ha. Lao Hu laughed, not only Tang Si and Tang Yingxue were dead, but they could also get rewards.
Lao Hu looked at the old tree eagerly.
"You've got my approval, and that's the reward. ”
Lao Hu scolded in his heart, his face remained silent, and he thanked Lao Shu. The old tree also tied the old beard with branches, and was about to be thrown out.
"Wait, I got it right, why do you still want to throw me away?" Lao Hu didn't care about offending the old tree.
The old tree didn't answer, and the giant didn't care about the ant's shouting, and the branch shook and threw the old Hu away??? Lao Hu felt like he was on a "crazy cobra"! it was a faster thing than a roller coaster. The 300-meter distance is completed in 40 seconds. Now Lao Hu feels like that, there is no way but to watch with his eyes open!
Lao Hu flew all the way from the sky, and in more than ten seconds, he had already flown out of the fog area, and under his feet was the first western open-air pit in Asia!
Once this was a flat land, the small Japanese war of aggression against China occupied the three eastern provinces when the big pit dug out in the coal city, how big it is, Lao Hu doesn't know, anyway, Lao Hu looked down, the scope of the big pit is light and fluttering!
Lao Hu's speed did not decrease and flew directly over the big pit, passing by Qingnian Road, flying over the water company, and even flew over the labyrinth-like north and south platform buildings, and finally smashed into the South Railway Station!
Coal City has two railway stations, named after the South Station and the North Station, as in most cities. The place where Lao Hu is staying now is the South Railway Station Railway Station, but unfortunately when the South Railway Station was renovated, someone proposed to abandon it, and although it was not realized later, it was also in a semi-abandoned state. The distance between the tracks at the South Railway Station is short, and there is no way to stop long-distance trains, and most of the trains that stop at the South Railway Station are direct trains to the provincial capital, and there are seven or eight trains a day.
When Lao Hu was about to fall to the ground, he was still thinking in his heart, hoping that he wouldn't fall into a meatloaf??? Seeing that Lao Hu was about to fall headfirst to death, suddenly a branch stretched out from the ground and grabbed Lao Hu strongly! Lao Hu gasped deeply, he was almost scared to death just now!
The branch slowly put Lao Hu on the ground, and then burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
Lao Hu looked at the place where he stayed, the passenger station of Coal City South Station. The passenger station is located in a small square at the entrance of the railway station, and behind the small square is the railway station, and both are in the same place! This place is the gathering place of the Lei Feng, a bus that goes directly to the provincial capital, and there are both public and private cars, and there are also a large number of taxis parked at the edge of the road! However, there are quite a few cars, some of which are sitting people, and some of which are empty.
Seeing Lao Hu falling from the sky, several people walked up to Lao Hu and wanted to say hello, but when they saw that Lao Hu was a cripple, his legs were abolished, his left hand became a hand bone, and there were four eyeballs in his two eye sockets, and the people who watched it were furious. Unwilling to take care of Lao Hu, everyone walked back to the bus.
Lao Hu didn't pay attention to those people, because Lao Hu's whole body and mind were cast in front of him. Lao Hu saw a ball of light!
In the middle of the square of the passenger terminal, a ball of light floats. This light is the size of a room, and even if it is right in front of you, it seems to be far away!
Seeing surreal things again, Lao Hu no longer made a fuss. His hands crawled on the ground, and he entered the range of light, instinctively trying to ease down.
Lao Hu hasn't eaten since last night, and his legs have lost too much blood, plus in winter, Lao Hu is chilling all over his body at the moment.
Entering the range of the aperture, a sound that seemed to be synthesized sounded in Lao Hu's mind.
"Hello dear passengers. The main god coal city station is at your service. How can you help you?"
"I ??? I want to be able to stand up!" Hu asked hopefully.
"Passengers please show your ticket and the service you have requested can be fulfilled on the train. ”
Hearing the words of the Lord God, Lao Hu remembered the air train that flew into the mouth of the moon that night!
Lao Hu touched his whole body, he was captured last night, his weapons were taken away, and now he doesn't even have a piece of paper on his body, let alone a ticket!
"I don't have a ticket. Lao Hu can only tell the truth.
"Sorry, passengers who do not have tickets cannot board the train, please complete the task and earn tickets!"
Lao Hu wanted to ask again, but someone behind him showed a stack of tickets!"Call the train and do advanced tasks." There was a great deal of confidence in the words.
Lao Hu lay on the ground, moved his body and looked back, and saw seven or eight people. Everyone was dressed in clean and nice clothes. It's not like an escape, it's more like going on an outing! It's just that everyone has a weapon on their back, or in their hands. Lao Hu looked at the group of people, and suddenly his body shook, and he saw a man and a woman in the middle of the group. The man wore glasses, was suave, dressed in a suit, tied a tie, and held a wooden staff, the branches at the top of the wooden staff branched to form a hollow circle, and the center of the circle was inlaid with a jewel; The man wrapped one hand around Wang Min's waist and whispered something to Wang Min, who kept smiling.
Lao Hu opened his mouth and wanted to shout, but when the words came to his mouth, he really couldn't say it! If Lao Hu was not injured, then he would have to fight for anything, or insult this, but now in this situation, Lao Hu himself will pile up.
