Chapter 20: Simple Reasons

“boom!”

The heavy shooting sound of the sniper rifle echoed in the gloomy forest.

High in the sky, a big colorful bird fell down.

Not long after, eight members of the group returned with the corpses of birds and came to Yang Congxian.

“Vital signs have disappeared, the species is unknown!”

Yang Congxian nodded, waved, and ordered him to send the giant bird to the rear and hand it over to the researcher.

More than an hour has passed since they stepped into this land.

Two short battles broke out during this period.

Four practitioners were injured, but fortunately they were not serious.

“Leader Shi.”

“exist.”

“Did the previous samples of ore and plants shipped out?”

Shi Jin glanced at the phone, and the signal became worse and worse as he went in. There is only the last frame left, which is precarious.

“It has been delivered, but there are too many things that need to be sampled. We can only pick a part. We don’t know if it is important. It would be nice if we can have an expert.”

Shi Jin couldn’t help but said.

During this hour, a group of people walked very slowly.

The danger here is not very big, only some powerful beasts that can control Spiritual Qi attacks are more troublesome like practitioners, but with Yang Congxian in charge, the problem is not big.

The real drag on their progress is gathering supplies.

Different from the ruins last time, this time the entire mountain forest is full of life, plants, soil, rocks, water, organisms, etc., they all need to collect samples and then transport them back to the rear.

For specialized scholars to conduct research.

At the same time, it is also necessary to contact other domestic departments at any time.

After all, there are more than ten “mangyuan” exploring at the same time across the country.

It must be judged based on the news from various places.

Information is refreshed at all times in the internal network shared by the special departments of the provinces.

In addition to the “Mangyuan”, there are also many temporary expert teams who are analyzing the retrieved materials and guiding exploration.

But with the weakening of network signals, let alone ordinary electronic equipment, even the special military equipment and channels of Trident have been greatly affected.

The transmission speed of information can barely support image transmission.

Coupled with factors such as scattered coordination of personnel and complex administrative structure, the efficiency of the entire exploration is extremely low.

This is also one of the reasons why Shi Jin is so emotional.

Yang Congxian shook his head, brushed the dust off his clothes, and said: “Experts are limited. The first division and the second division will divide up most of them, and the rest will be divided, and there will be few left.”

“But in this case, we won’t be able to get in far when it gets dark, and we don’t know how long this projection will last.”

Shi Jin’s tone was a little eager.

According to the experience of “Ruins”, this projection may soon disappear, but he is not in a hurry.

Why doesn’t Yang Congxian know this truth?

He stopped and looked far away, and the tall and primitive trees in front of him looked like a mysterious palace propped up together. As the sky came into the evening, they were plated with golden clothes, and the atmosphere of dust and ancient times came to his face.

After another hour or two, it will enter the night.

When the time comes to face those unique alien beasts in the forest, third-rank masters like Yang Congxian should also be cautious.

What’s more, those first rank and second rank cultivator behind you?

“Don’t worry, the headquarters should also take this issue into consideration. It really doesn’t work…When it gets dark, we will push it violently.

You are now instructing to go down and contact the Ningcheng government to get some excavating machinery and trucks over. It really doesn’t work. Work in the dark and dig him thoroughly first! “After hesitating, Yang Congxian said a bit harshly.

“Yes!”

Shi Jin nodded abruptly and was about to leave.

Just here, suddenly a small lapel rushed over, holding a tablet device in his hand.

Excited.

“Director! Team leader! Look at the picture just sent from the Beijing headquarters! After satellite capture, traces of human habitation were found somewhere in the mountains!”

Yang Congxian and Shi Jin breathed tightly, looked at each other, and hurriedly took it.

After looking at the tablet for a while, he raised his head to calculate the lower position.

Yang Congxian took a breath and decisively ordered:

“Everyone! Stop exploring, act quickly with me, and aim…to the east! Go ahead!”

“call.”

Somewhere in the primeval forest.

Cheng Lin stopped some heavy steps.

It was nearly half an hour before they separated from Zhao Ye.

Together with Sun Xiao, he still headed towards the valley.

Perhaps luck improved after being separated from those people.

Along the way, I saw two plants emitting magical light, but there were beasts hovering beside each other.

Cheng Lin and Sun Xiao measured the strength of the next two sides, and they could only leave with regret.

Up to now, it has been nearly two hours into the mountain.

There is no road in the mountains, walking is difficult, and the nerves are always tight, that is, Cheng Lin feels tired.

Sun Xiao was already sweating profusely, and began to pant.

Fortunately, the goal is already in sight.

Not far in front of the two of them was the lake outside the valley.

“Let’s go to the previous one and rest.”

Cheng Lin suppressed his excitement, pretending to be calm.

Sun Xiao wiped his sweat and nodded.

“Be extra careful, I feel there may be danger around here.”

Cheng Lin reminded.

He still remembered that fierce beasts often gathered near the lake.

“Yeah. I know.”

Sun Xiao nodded, and the two carefully fumbled forward.

But what surprised Cheng Lin was that the surrounding area was very peaceful.

“Perhaps because the temperature dropped in the evening, so no beasts came to drink?”

Thinking about it in his heart, Cheng Lin also relaxed a little while holding the folded hand.

Sun Xiao was very surprised:

“There is a lake here? Is there a river passing by here?”

“Yes, but let’s not get too close, in case there is a crocodile or something hidden in the lake, it will be troublesome.”

“Okay,” Sun Xiao nodded, and then after thinking about it, he suddenly smiled and said, “I’m actually quite curious. You said that there is a river in this valley. After the projection of the entire valley is materialized, the water in the river still doesn’t flow. flow?”

“If it flows, is it going to flow beyond the scope of Mangyuan?”

Cheng Lin glanced at him and then smiled. He didn’t expect that Sun Xiao would still be thinking about this at this time.

“We’ll know when we get out.”

“Go out…Well, when do you think this projection will disappear.” Sun Xiao said suddenly.

“What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing, by the way, did you bring a flashlight? It’s evening, and it will get dark soon.”

“Take it.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

The two said, carefully bypassing the lake and heading towards the valley.

The valley is still quiet, and the cliffs on both sides are towering, full of the feeling of slashing.

Sun Xiao came to the outside of the valley, looked up and squinted, and found a round of orange-red sunset just hanging over the tip of a cliff.

The faint sunlight splashed down, without a canopy cover.

The sky was extremely bright for a while.

“Cheng Lin, the cliffs on these sides are so steep, as if they were formed by a giant sword.”

Sun Xiao bathed in the sunshine and suddenly said with emotion.

Cheng Lin turned his eyes slightly.

He didn’t expect that Sun Xiao would have this feeling, and it was the same feeling when he came here for the first time.

After a few glances, the two moved on.

The wind in the valley is obviously smaller and quieter. Walking in it, Cheng Lin and Sun Xiao’s tight nerves can’t help but relax.

“Let’s take a break first, I feel this place is safe.”

Cheng Lin suppressed the excitement in his heart and said.

“good.”

The two chose a gentle slope, sat down on the ground, dropped their backpacks, and took a few sips of mineral water.

Cheng Lin pretended to look around, but was actually determining where he was hiding the vermilion fruit.

Sun Xiao was completely relaxed.

He is obviously tired, and only feels his legs are sore.

When the warm wind blew, he squinted his eyes and said, “Cheng Lin?”

“En? What’s the matter?”

“Last time the ruins only existed for one night and then disappeared. Do you think this will be the same?”

“do not know.”

“When it gets dark, I heard that the beasts will be active after dark, but we have to be restricted.”

Cheng Lin retracted his gaze, looked at him, and blinked, “What do you want to say?”

Sun Xiao chuckled, pursed his lips, suddenly sighed, and said, “We have walked so far and still haven’t found anything. Maybe this time we really have to come here for nothing.”

“There is still more time.”



“But I don’t know what to see at night.”

Perhaps it was the tranquility of the valley that made him relax. Suddenly, on that face of Sun Xiao, there was an emotion called disappointment spreading.

Emotions are like water, soaking every pore of him.

Cheng Lin’s original excitement suddenly became less excited.

The two were silent for a while.

Cheng Lin suddenly asked curiously: “Do you really want to awaken so much? Why? Is being a practitioner really attractive to you?”

Sun Xiao really wanted to practice.

The whole class knows about this.

It was Sun Xiao who forwarded all kinds of information about spiritual practice in the group.

It is Sun Xiao who inquires about practicing Eight Trigrams everywhere.

It is also Sun Xiao who is the first to organize the team to enter the mountain.

Cheng Lin sometimes feels that Sun Xiao seems to be more attached to this matter than he is.

“What about you? Then why are you?” Sun Xiao asked back.

Cheng Lin hesitated, watching the sunset, and the scene of the big fireball attacking again appeared in front of him.

“Safe, actually I am a very insecure person. This term seems to be inaccurate. In short… you have lived for more than ten years, and suddenly you find that the whole world is not so safe. Own may appear in the second half of your life. A lot of bad variables, just… I just want to hold something in my hand.”

Cheng Lin rarely said such a long sentence. After a pause, he nodded, “Probably that’s it.”

Sun Xiao smiled, showing white teeth.

“I didn’t understand very much, what I said, the reason is very simple, because I Little Sister wants me to become a practitioner.”

“You still have Little Sister?” Cheng Lin was surprised.

“Can’t it?”

“It’s not… just a little unexpected.”

Cheng Lin smacked his lips.

Isn’t something like Little Sister something the protagonist should have?

I have the ability to deduce civilization. I don’t even have Little Sister yet, but Sun Xiao has…

So angry.

Cheng Lin blinked, “tell me more specifically?”

Sun Xiao scratched his head and said with a silly smile: “Actually, there is nothing to say, you know, I especially like watching federal blockbusters. In fact, not only I like it, but my sister also likes it. Sometimes I get tired of studying and watch it with her.

Looking around, I talked about heroes, saving the world, super powers and the like.

I asked her, do you want to become a superman?

She said she didn’t want to, she said she wanted me to be a superman.

That is to say, there is a Superman, Big Brother, who is so handsome. No one else. If someone dares to bully her, they will give me my name. ”

Cheng Lin was curious: “What then?”

“Then… Spiritual Qi’s recovery. One of my Little Sister classmates, Big Brother, awakened. It is said that after entering the relevant department, she was very disappointed. She talked to me all day, and then… I felt like a practitioner. It’s also necessary. It helps me maintain the dignity of Big Brother.”

Cheng Lin was startled: “What about then?”

“No more, then I will sit here with you.”

“It’s that simple?”

“How complicated is it?” Sun Xiao looked at him with a serious expression.

“…”

The two looked at each other for a while, and Cheng Lin finally retreated.

And once again recognized the second fact in his heart as the monitor.

This reason…

It’s sloppy enough.

He patted his butt, glanced at the drooping sun, Cheng Lin stood up.

“Let’s go now? I haven’t rested enough yet.” Sun Xiao wailed.

Cheng Lin waved his hand without turning his head and said, “I won’t leave, I just go to find a convenient place. I’ve been holding it back for a long time, don’t look at it!”

Sun Xiao scolded with a smile: “I see what you are doing, I am not a pervert.”

Cheng Lin walked fast, and disappeared in a corner after a short while.

Then he walked a few hundred meters.

Came to a mountain crevice.

Cheng Lin’s hand penetrated into the gap.

After a pause, a small tree was caught.

On the branch, two red fruits, one large and one small, are heavy.
