Chapter 54: Rock Sea

The beautiful scene in everyone's hearts was broken, making people shudder.

Zhang Jianyang looked at the Devouring Tree, which had regained its beautiful side, and whispered: "The more beautiful the world is, the more dangerous it is. Behind this beauty, there is infinite murderous intent."

Chen Zhuangping understood the words Zhang Jianyang had experienced too much before summarizing, but Wang Hanguang and others still didn't understand. At most, they were shocked by the means of devouring the tree. How could they think of Zhang Jianyang's words in life? In life, there are so many beautiful things that tempt people's eyes, thinking and soul, but who cares about the dangers in it?

Feeling this shocking scene, Zhang Jianyang took them back to the tent again. I believe that after seeing this scene, they would not dare to step into the canopy.

The caravan carried some fire-making tools and simply burned some boiling water. In this desert that began to get cold, it made people feel a little warm.

The dinner was also dry food, but one person had an extra piece of jerky meat.

After dinner, Zhang Jianyangshuang gave him a message and got into his tent and went to bed without any fear.

But the others are different. They can't sleep in the tent.

This is camping in the wild in the dark. If such a thing is spread, terror will not believe it. Human beings' fear of the darkness is almost engraved in their bones. But now they are camping in the darkness. Just think about it, it is an incredible and exciting thing. The blue light of the Devouring Tree is very soft, but it is also very bright, like a moon that is so close to you.

In this case, who can fall asleep peacefully?

Not only that, the blue light outside the tent sometimes shows a brighter light. Every time the starry waterfall flashes, people will know that another mutant beast fell under the deception technique of the Devouring Tree. Throughout the night, many people didn't know how to fall asleep, with excitement and fear, the stimulation of being on the edge of death made them feel magical and fresh.

…………

The next morning, everyone was wearing dark circles, and the mature Chen Zhuangping couldn't fall asleep peacefully.

When Zhang Jianyang got up, he stretched his waist and slept very comfortably. He could rest assuredly as he could sleep peacefully. Even at home in Shacheng, he would not be so relaxed at this moment. Zhang Jianyang felt a little emotional. He was born to appear in the dark, without a trace of fear of the dark, but instead was used to the lifestyle of the dark.

Seeing their indifference, Zhang Jianyang burst into laughter. He forgot that he was like them at the beginning.

The people who got up were staring at the towering tree standing beside them. Now it seems that this tree is very ordinary, almost the same as the banyan tree in the south. All the leaves were curled up, and the terrifying fibrous roots all contracted and disappeared. The whole tree felt like it had entered self-protection.

The animals and plants living in the desert all have a set of water locking methods that belong to them.

The current state of the Devouring Tree is to roll up its leaves to prevent excessive water from losing in the heat that will be waiting for a while. There is rich groundwater in the desert, and the roots of the Devouring Tree have long penetrated into the groundwater, but its huge canopy will consume thousands or tens of thousands of times that other plants consume. If the water absorbed is not protected, it will not withstand squandering.

After breakfast, the caravan returned to the road, passing by the edge of this devouring tree, and gradually threw it behind him.

There are not many such devouring trees in the world, only a few countries appear in them, and they are all grown in the desert, not a mutant plant that people need.

…………

The desert where the sun rises is very hot, and the bull drags the five-cargo compartment of more than a hundred tons, constantly gasping.

The temperature has risen to over forty degrees, making people sweat all over.

Zhang Jianyang looked up at the nuclear explosion cloud that had not dissipated for a century. Without its blocking sunlight, the temperature here would exceed 50 degrees. Not to mention surviving here, it would become impossible to cross this sea of ​​sand. High temperatures are not something that humans can bear, and mutant beasts like Manniu can also not tolerate this high temperature.

Out of familiarity with this area, Zhang Jianyang led the caravan and advanced on different routes.

Chen Zhuangping was surprised. What Zhang Jianyang said was that an old man who had walked this road countless times. He had never encountered any dangerous things except for the initial death of the Gobi Desert.

With the arrival of the afternoon, Chen Zhuangping kept looking at his watch, and the time was lost, but the caravan was getting closer and closer to his destination.

When many weeds appeared in the desert, you can see layers of rocks appearing in the distance, which also means that the caravan has successfully crossed this sea of ​​sand and entered the rocky area of ​​the plateau. Next, it will be a completely unknown journey, and even Chen Zhuangping is no longer familiar with it.

Chen Zhuangping and others who lost their direction would not understand what the appearance of this rock sea means. This would mean that the caravan has entered the scope of the Talmud Basin. These rock seas are the most peculiar regional business card of the Talmud Basin. Perhaps due to the high temperature, most of these rocks are gray-brown. Between the cracks of the rocks, a dwarf plant that is as red as maple leaves will grow.

There is also an excellent animal in the Talmud Basin, which is the Rock Sheep.

The appearance of the caravan seemed to break the silence of this area. A group of rock sheep who were eating the plants and grass in the gaps between the rocks was frightened and ran around in the rocky sea, jumping, and finally disappeared into the rock abyss in the distance. The mutated tall rock sheep leader was the last to leave after roaring shockingly on the rocks.

The mutant rock sheep are not strong in their ability, but they are at the second level, about the same level as the Manniu. On the flat ground, they do not look very good, but in this rock sea, they are the real masters.

Chen Zhuangping sighed a little: "The meat in Shacheng is expensive. If you bring this large group of rock sheep back, the money you earn will definitely be above the fine salt."

The rock sheep living here, except for a few flying mutant beasts that can hunt them, humans cannot have this ability. As long as they are frightened, the rock sheep will escape everywhere and hide it with the undulating rocky oceans here. The ferocious mutant rock sheep is simply their realm. Who would like to appreciate the taste of them using their horns to push down the abyss, even if you can hunt them.

A highway a hundred years ago was built to travel through this rocky sea.

…………

Before sunset, the caravan passed through this rocky sea, and what was revealed before his eyes was a vast and boundless huge basin.

In the basin, there are also rolling mountains and seas made of rocks. At the far and near the end of the world, there is a blue lake. On the edge of the lake, a narrow and long snow-white jade belt can be seen with naked eyes. This is the world-famous natural and dry salt land in the Tum Basin.

Standing at the exit of the rock sea, the caravan stopped and appreciated the shock given by this huge and endless basin from this corner.

Chen Zhuangping burst into tears, stood on the loading platform, and looked into the distance with a telescope: "This is the Talmu Basin, this is the Talmu Basin."
