Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 455: Plants Have Competition

Under the lush and lush tree, the two hung on the branches back to back.

"Now I am hanging on the tree at a height of about 20 meters. Now we need to descend to the ground. We can use the rope on the parachute, but this violates the survival principle I set this time."

"Although a parachute and a rope would work well here, most people who get lost in the forest have nothing, so I will also have nothing, which will make the journey much more difficult. I have to find other ways to get down."

Bi Fang looked up at the top of his head, carefully undid the strap, and then got out of it.

"When you are hung on a tree with a parachute, don't make big moves. Although the parachute has a large area, it cannot be guaranteed that you will not fall directly because of it, so when you do any action , be careful."

Leonardo remained motionless, watching Bi Fang leave behind him, he suddenly lightened, and even his position seemed to be raised a bit.

"At the same time, we must also pay attention to the forked branches on the side, don't let it scratch your eyes, and most importantly, you must always observe the surrounding environment."

Bi Fang, who got out of the backpack, grabbed a branch beside him, and approached the trunk carefully, stepping on the branch with his bare feet, and firmly grasping the ground with his toes.

The humid environment of the rainforest made the branches covered with slippery moss. After a while, Bi Fang's soles turned pure green.

The branches of the linden tree are very characteristic. When they grow to a certain height, they will expand horizontally.

It doesn't grow towards the top, like a layer of carpet spread out, and it will be very convenient to walk when it is higher and another layer is laid.

"As I said before, the ecological chain in the rainforest is very cruel. Many creatures have evolved their own unique means of survival or hunting, and mimicry is one of them. Sometimes what you think of as a branch may be a mimic poisonous snake."

【Hey, stop talking, goosebumps are coming out of my hands】

[In other words, it feels like I haven't seen the artifact for a long time, dog head.jpg]

[Come out, artifact! 】

[Tree stick +9, attack power 210+120, no additional effects, strength: D, agility: C]

[The last time I went to climb Mount Everest, I upgraded to use a super artifact trekking pole. The tree stick has not appeared in a whole copy, and I lost my status as an artifact! 】

[Let's break the linden tree directly, there is a face! In other words, this thing is not protecting plants, is it? 】

[If it is to protect plants, it would be miserable. Just now, Lao Fang and Xiao Lizi came down and broke a lot of branches, right? dog head.jpg]

"How can it be so easy to encounter protected plants?" Bi Fang smiled when he saw the barrage. The reason why protected plants are protected plants is because they are rare.

Such a large piece of forest landed and hit the protected plants. Is it good luck or bad luck?

Stepping on the thick branches, Bi Fang quickly came to the center of the trunk. Looking down, the branches and leaves were obviously much less, and he could vaguely see the ground.

A small drone took the opportunity to pass through the gap and shoot from the bottom up. Above the ground, the dark forest environment made everyone tremble slightly.

Bi Fang is right, the rainforest is not as beautiful and deep as everyone imagined.

A person who is not used to outdoor adventures will only feel terror and fear when he enters this place, and he wants to escape instantly.

More than two-thirds of the world's plants and animals are found in tropical rainforests, and the animals and plants living here are undoubtedly very cruel to them.

A frog that is resting may be swallowed by a poisonous snake in the next second, and a poisonous snake may be chewed by a mongoose as a spicy stick in the next second.

Even plants, sunshine, rain and dew have to fight desperately to grab it.

"The rainforest has a unique vegetal canopy structure that consists of several vertical layers including the forest tree canopy, the canopy, the understory, the understory and the ground surface."

"Every floor will try its best to occupy the living space and absorb a little bit of sunlight leaking from the fingers of the big tree, and the class is almost solidified. Even the new tree seedlings basically cannot grow up to the height of their parents. Because there are no resources."

The trees in the tropical rainforest are divided into upper, middle and lower layers in vertical space. The height of the canopy of the lower trees is usually below the middle tree crown. covered the light.

Therefore, they can only choose to bloom and bear fruit on relatively open old branches or trunks, attracting pollinating insects interacting in this space.

Or wait for the largest tree in an area to die, decay and collapse, and project sunlight in before it can become the new overlord.

"It's about 20 meters." Bi Fang lowered his head to confirm, then returned the same way, grabbed a branch above his head, and stretched out his hand towards Leonardo, "Untie the strap, and come here, be careful, there is a big tree on the tree. slip."

Leonardo nodded. In the rainforest, he felt more stuffy than before, and every breath seemed to be filled with water vapor into his lungs, making it sticky.

The clothes on his body were stuck together.

Recalling Bi Fang's previous actions, he carefully unfastened the straps of his backpack, and then, with Bi Fang's support, he stepped onto a branch. Just as he was going up, his soles slipped and he almost fell down.

Fortunately, Bi Fang was prepared and grabbed him directly.

"The tree trunks in the rainforest are very slippery and have a lot of moss on them. You must be careful when climbing trees and don't be in a hurry."

The two came to the trunk together. Bi Fang chose a not so thick trunk, hugged it with both hands and said: "The trunk of the Bodhi tree is very special, some are like many small trunks twisted together, so we only need to choose one of them. Just slide the roots straight down, don't worry about scratching your hands, it's really smooth."

As he said that, Bi Fang hugged the small tree trunk, put his feet on it, and under the influence of his own weight, he slid down little by little, resting on other branches in the middle. slip down.

As the altitude dropped, the sunlight also disappeared quickly, and the entire forest became deeper and deeper.

The mood of the audience became tense.

[Claustrophobia is really extinct here. 】

【There are 100 million shrimps】

Just as he was about to hit the ground, Bi Fang stopped again, snapped off a branch full of leaves, and swept the ground under his feet: "There are dangers everywhere in the rainforest, you can see where my feet are. It is a dead leaf, but there may be poisonous centipedes hidden in it, it is not easy to be found in the rainforest, and it is easy to be accidentally injured by alarming it."

"There may also be poisonous spiders. There are many poisonous spiders in the Banna rainforest, but they usually come out at night and rarely come out during the day. If you wear shoes, you don't have to worry about it, but unfortunately, I am still barefoot. , Be careful before landing."

After Bi Fang swept the ground to make sure that there were no hidden animals underneath, he officially landed, and at the same time called Leonardo who was still on the tree to come down together.

With the demonstration, Leonardo was more careful and landed successfully.

When he came to the ground, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh, you were too careful, you really made me nervous just now."

"I can't help it. I'm not wearing anything. Of course, I can't be too careful." Bi Fang spread his hands. If he was wearing clothes and boots, he wouldn't have to be so nervous. It would be fine to jump directly from two to three meters.

But I don’t have one. Although Bi Fang has the experience and abilities endowed by the system, his body is still normal, and he hasn’t developed the adaptability to survive in the rainforest for a long time.

Significantly different from the Aboriginal inhabitants.

As soon as they entered the rainforest, the two heard many strange chirping sounds, which seemed to be mixed with ape cries. Matching the deep environment, the spider silk hanging down everywhere made people panic.

"The most urgent thing now is to weave a pair of shoes for my feet, so that I can walk freely in the rainforest without being threatened by insects." Bi Fang knelt down and stroked the flat ground.

"There may be danger hidden in the dead leaves, and these sharp needles may also pierce the soles of your feet. It will be fine for a short time, but after a long time, the soles of your feet will become very rough and densely packed. Small wounds that cannot be seen clearly, these wounds are easily invaded by microorganisms, even parasites, such as sand fleas."

"They usually inhabit the soil and feed on the blood of warm-blooded hosts. Many indigenous people in Africa who don't wear shoes have very thick soles of their feet, and there are many dense holes, like barnacles on whales. I don't want that , It’s really disgusting, don’t search for it either.”

Leonardo shrugged: "I think they will be more curious if you do this, but I have seen it with my own eyes, and it is really disgusting."

"I need to find a plant to protect my feet, and until then we can simply wrap a leafy branch like a wound."

Bi Fang didn't waste the branch that just swept the ground, and directly covered the entire sole of the foot, and then the other one did the same, and then took Leonardo to explore in the jungle.

"The parachute will be collected by the staff for us. Now, let's hurry up and explore."

On the ground, dead leaves and green grass are intertwined everywhere, which is also a unique phenomenon in the rainforest.

"There are too many microorganisms here. As many as a corpse, it may decompose in just a week. In fact, the rainforest has a hot and rainy climate, and the surface runoff and leaching are strong. The soil is very poor and lacks the accumulation and replenishment of nutrients."

"Growing towering trees is entirely due to the violent decomposition of organic matter and the cycle of nutrients. This is also destined to be very difficult to re-grow once the rainforest is destroyed."

"Dead leaves are green grass, and two phenomena that should appear in autumn and spring can be intertwined."
