Chapter 23: A Break

"Whew~ They shouldn't be chasing after them anymore. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Tang Li looked at the group of snakes staring at them in the jungle with palpitations, and let out a long breath.

Different from Tang Li's performance for the rest of his life, compared to Tang Li, Xiyue looked much calmer at the moment, "I didn't expect them to really not be able to chase them out, it seems that my guess has indeed come true." ā€

"Guess?Xiyue, ...... you" Tang Li looked at Xiyue angrily, the expression under the mask can be imagined, you can imagine what kind of mood a girl who almost died in the belly of a snake would feel when she heard that her life was actually based on an unreliable speculation.

"Take it easy. Xi Yue repeated this sentence that had been said thousands of times to Tang Li, soothing the girl's mood, "I am not completely unsure that I asked you to do this, the moment I cut the first python, I felt that the mitochondria in its body carried some special information. ā€

"What does this mean, Xiyue, you're not lying to me again. Tang Li gently pressed a button on the lower nail with her hand, causing the front end of the mask to separate left and right, revealing her beautiful face.

For the role of always being the questioner when she gets along with Xiyue, Tang Li may have become accustomed to it. But she still can't get used to being cheated all the time.

After hearing Tang Li's doubts about herself, Xiyue also opened her mask, looked directly into Tang Li's eyes and said, "I didn't lie to you. ā€

Tang Li stared at Xi Yue's clear and transparent eyes carefully for a while, and in his eyes, he still didn't seem to see anything except his own reflection.

Tang Li sighed, looked at Xiyue with a very sad look, and said helplessly: "Then I will believe you again, but you have to give me an honest explanation of what information you have in your hands now." ā€

Trust me to make the right choice, at least, I haven't lied to you yet. With this in mind, Xiyu glanced at the snakes in the jungle and said to Tang Li: "Let's change places first, stay here with those guys, you always feel uncomfortable, and besides, your boots can also find a place to clean up." ā€

When talking about the boots, Tang Lidi's little face was obviously slightly red, and after agreeing to Xiyue's proposal in a thin voice, the two of them relied on the topological terrain drawing function and walked towards a nearby stream.

This is a very clear stream, and it is a scenery that Xiyue and Tang Li, who have been in the reinforced concrete environment for a long time, rarely have the opportunity to see.

When Tang Li's parents were still alive, they often took little Tang Li around to see the beautiful natural scenery and learn the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, but after his parents died in an accident, Tang Li rarely walked out of the magic capital.

Xiyue, whose parents are not at home all the year round, also rarely has the opportunity to leave the magic capital, but he has absorbed all kinds of knowledge from books, film and television works, and the Internet, and he does not feel anything special about the scenery in front of him.

Not only visual intelligence is the most reliable, Xiyue has never believed in the truth that it is better to hear than to see, if the information is comprehensive enough, even if he has not seen it with his own eyes, he can construct the whole picture of that kind of thing in front of his eyes through the information in his head, which is Xiyue's innate ability, and it is also the key that makes him different from ordinary people.

After making sure that the fish in the stream were not dangerous, Tang Li happily took off the two boots that were stained with filth and put them in the stream to wash them.

Seeing her washing her boots in the stream, if she hadn't known in advance, Xiyue might not have imagined that Tang Li was usually a young lady who didn't touch the spring water with her fingers at home.

"So, where is the best place to start?" Xiyue thought for a while, then raised her head and said to Tang Li, "Those rainbow pythons that attacked us just now are probably not ordinary species, but special creatures that have been modified by Darwin's theory of evolution. ā€

When he heard Darwin's name, Tang Li's hand washing his boots paused obviously, and then continued to wash his boots like a normal person.

"The snake's metabolic system is very special, when it doesn't need to eat, its metabolic rate will be reduced to the lowest point, basically no different from a dead snake, relying on this special ecosystem, the snake should be able to keep for a long time after eating without eating, and the snake creature rarely takes the initiative to attack other creatures when it is not hungry, it will attack us is indeed a very strange place. ā€

"Isn't that normal? It's probably hungry. After saying this, Tang Li felt a burst of hunger in her abdomen, she didn't eat much for breakfast, and when she arrived on the island, she carried out such high-intensity exercise one after another, although relying on the kinetic energy provided by the exoskeleton armor, she did not consume too much physical strength, but the consumption of nutrients in the body by scientific power is genuine.

Hunger can be contagious, after landing on this island, although it seems that Xi Yue did not use much scientific power, but for a long time using the calculus ability to interpret the nearby mechanical environment actually consumed a lot of nutrients in his brain, out of nowhere Xi Yue took out an apple, put it to his mouth and nibbled on it, looked at Tang Li and continued: " It is true that there is such a possibility as you mentioned, but judging from the number of rainbow pythons that have pursued us before, it means that they must have a rich food source to maintain such a large population in this jungle, but judging from the previous situation in the jungle and the area you have mapped with topology, it seems that this jungle does not provide an environment sufficient to support such a large group of rainbow pythons. ā€

"Then you mean, someone is feeding them?" When Tang Li said the word feeding, Xi Yue could feel that her eyes were firmly locked on the apple in her hand, but Xi Yue had no intention of sharing her apple with Tang Li.

"I guess that's how you can understand it. Xi Yue took another bite on the apple, splashing a large amount of juice at the bite with the flesh, "The original rainbow python obviously showed a high level of intelligence when it attacked us, it knew that we could have something that threatened it, so it quietly lurked near us, it was at first stalemate with us, apparently sending information to its companions in some way, buying them time to surround us......"

In the middle of Xiyue's speech, Tang Li interrupted Xiyue's speech and said to him very strongly: "Xiyue, I also want to eat apples." ā€

It seems that she is really hungry......
