Shen Feng thought for a while, then stamped his feet hard, stepping on the saline-alkali land. It was very strong. On this kind of ground, the mutated plants would certainly not be able to move at will, and then directly replied: "Rest assured, this is a saline-alkali land, and it is not easy for plants to grow on it." Growing here, what is a barren land? This is a barren land!"
Yue Hengyi thinks this is also the case. Doesn't it mean that plants will lose water when encountering a hypertonic environment? In saline-alkali soil, underground plants will lose water and die if they get close. There is no danger in resting here.
There was no tent in the car, only blankets. Everyone lay on the blankets to sleep, covered with clothes and other things. Fortunately, it was summer in Australia, and the temperature at night was more than ten degrees, so it would not freeze anyone. .
But Lu Zhengqi walked towards the lake at this time, still holding a plastic basin in his hand.
"Hey, kid, you can't drink the water here. Don't go crazy! The water here is full of heavy metal ions. If you take a sip, your organs will fail immediately!" Shen Feng saw Lu Zhengqi's actions and immediately stopped him. Is this kid looking for a short-term life?
Lu Zhengqi said with some embarrassment: "I'm not going to drink water. I'm going to take a bath because I might be a little smelly."
After hearing this explanation, Shen Feng looked at Lu Zhengqi's actions at this time, and immediately understood that this boy actually wanted to wash away the smell of urine on his body. For a young man, peeing his pants was still too embarrassing. Yes, his choice is understandable, but this is in a saline-alkali land.
"Okay, you'd better wash it with clean water from the car!" Shen Feng said dissatisfied: "It's best not to touch the water in these saline-alkali fields. There are so many heavy metal ions. If you are poisoned, we can't save you. .”
"But we are in the desert now, and water is very precious." Lu Zhengqi hesitated.
Shen Feng pointed at Yue Hengyi, and Yue Hengyi was too lazy to talk nonsense. He hugged a big bucket in the car and said, "Put the plastic basin away! It's just a basin of water, it's just grinding!"
Lu Zhengqi quickly put the basin on the ground, with a grateful look on his face. This was the first time someone was so kind to him. Since the end of the world came and his father was killed by zombies, he could only stay in the mountains with the survivors. He had to work every day and didn't have enough to eat. He had to be careful about being kicked out. This tempered his cautious character. Now, he felt the warmth from the foreigners and was immediately moved.
Shen Feng lay on the blanket and began to think: "What are the plants in the desert underground? Logically speaking, there should not be vines in the desert, and their method of catching prey relies on the vibration of the sand to find their location. Once you don't notice the vibration, you won't be able to find the enemy, and you probably have no vision or sense of smell."
Shen Feng has seen quite a lot of mutant plants, but the only mutant plant that can move is the one raised in Yuzhou. It is kept in a laboratory to produce evolutionary bases, and the area where it lives is inseparable from water sources, but Mutated plants that actively hunt prey have also appeared in the desert. This is strange. There is such a lack of water in the desert. What plant has successfully mutated here?
After much deliberation, Shen Feng couldn't figure it out and finally chose to sleep. He would continue on his way in two hours.
After the sun reappeared, the sunlight shone on Shen Feng's face. Shen Feng also woke up leisurely and looked around. Everyone was still sleeping. Yue Hengyi was still sleeping while tightly holding the ruby necklace in his hand, frowning. Wrinkling tightly, I don't know if I am missing the lover of my dreams.
Shen Feng first walked to the car, picked up the bottle and drank a bottle of water, and then began to tap the steel pipe on the pickup truck, "ding, clang, clang".
"Get up, get up, get ready to go. Don't sleep. When you get to your destination, you can sleep however you want!" Shen Feng also urged.
Yue Hengyi had good physical strength and woke up soon. Although there were dark circles on his face, he wiped water on his face and he felt energetic. However, Lu Zhengqi and Slot were a little slow. Although foreigners have never seen White-Haired Girl, they still feel that they were exploited by Huang Shiren.
In foreign countries, Huang Shiren has a nice name, called "capitalist". He does not use whips or sticks to exploit, and he can deprive others of the fruits of their labor with paper and pen.
Everyone got on the car and then continued to set off in the distance. After leaving the salt-alkali land, they drove for another morning. The car finally drove out of the desert. In the outer area, there was no longer a vast yellow sand, but there were There are dots of green, with cacti and wild grass growing, and further away you can see the shadow of kangaroos. This is the desert red kangaroo, living on the edge of the desert. In this harsh environment, the red kangaroo's Reproduction is guaranteed, and hunters will basically not come here.
"Brother Feng, there seem to be quite a few of these kangaroos, be careful of them rushing over." Yue Hengyi looked at the kangaroos appearing in front of him and couldn't help but remind Shen Feng.
"It's okay, these kangaroos have poor defense. My wind blade can kill them all, as long as they dare to get close!" Shen Feng said directly.
Shen Feng had killed a mutated kangaroo on the grassland before. This big kangaroo was indeed very powerful. Ordinary humans were no match for it, but its defense was not as good as that of a wild boar. The wild boar had rough skin and thick flesh, and could peel off a pig's skin. You can still make leather shoes, but not kangaroo fur.
The kangaroo did not attack the car, but stood and watched from a distance. It has been two years since humans appeared here. The little kangaroos born in the past two years have never seen a human driving a car. curious.
Seeing that he had crossed the desert in one day, one night and one morning, Slote finally breathed a sigh of relief and said: "After crossing the desert, we have passed the most difficult journey. We have already walked almost half of the journey." , the rest of the road can probably be completed in the middle of the night. There are often roads on the grassland. If you follow the road, the speed will be faster."
Not all countries can build roads in the desert. Australia is known as a country on the sheep's back, and it can only build roads in the eastern grassland areas. It is impossible for them to use taxpayers' money to build useless roads. Scattered roads can be found in the grassland.
The pickup truck drove into the depths of the grassland, but the green of the grassland here seemed to disappear out of thin air. The ground was green and yellow, and only the grass roots could be seen, as if they had been eaten.
"Brother Feng, look, there are many holes on the ground!" Yue Hengyi saw dense caves suddenly appeared on the ground, and he immediately became nervous.
Yue Hengyi has not forgotten the zombies he encountered outside Yanjing. At that time, the zombies dug countless holes in the ground, and he almost died underground. Fortunately, Qin Kewei was with him at the time and opened the tunnel from the ground. Go to the upper hole to leave the underground.
Apparently, Yue Hengyi suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder. When he saw the entrance to the cave, he was reminded of the battle at Yanjing, and he almost failed to come out of the cave.
Shen Feng also saw caves on the ground. The diameter of these caves was about 30 centimeters. If there were only such a large opening, the animals under the caves would not be particularly large. It was impossible for zombies to be hiding in the grassland.
"It's okay, these cave entrances are relatively small, and there can't be too many animals." Shen Feng said quickly.
After saying that, Shen Feng continued to drive through the grassland. The wheels became bumpy when walking on the bumpy ground. If he couldn't find a road, walking on the grassland would not be fast at all.
"Dong dong dong..." Where the car passed, there was a violent bump due to the shaking. The body of the car was made of steel plates, but the welding was not strong. There were gaps in many places. This bump was heard. Noisy sounds.
It was eleven o'clock at this time, and Shen Feng planned to find a flatter place to have lunch, but after going deep into this rugged grassland, he could not find any flat place at all.
The temperature at this time has also risen. The sun is shining straight down from the sky. The temperature can reach more than 30 degrees Celsius. In order to cool down, Shen Feng can only sit in the car wearing short sleeves. But it is still very hot. There is no way. I have no choice but to endure it. Who told this place to be close to the tropics?
Lu Zhengqi originally wanted to stay in the car and sleep while driving. Usually at this time, he didn't need an interpreter and it was just a good time to catch up on his sleep.
However, the journey was bumpy at this time, and Lu Zhengqi couldn't sleep, so he had to half-open his eyes and look out the window. Apart from the grassland, it was a cave, and there was nothing new at all.
Suddenly, a small head emerged from a cave. Lu Zhengqi quickly rubbed his eyes and looked towards the cave, only to find that it was the head of a rabbit, and it was a gray rabbit, with two ears hanging down behind the head, and eyes. It's red and is staring at the car.
"It turns out to be a rabbit hole." Lu Zhengqi muttered.
Everyone knows that Australia is overrun with rabbits. It can be said that Australians have exhausted all methods to deal with these overrun rabbits. Whether it is annual hunting or the introduction of viruses into rabbits, they have used all the methods they can think of. On the one hand, it still cannot effectively reduce the number of rabbits, so rabbits can easily be seen in Australia.
Suddenly, small and exquisite heads appeared in every rabbit hole. Rabbits emerged one after another, and they came out of the holes one after another and started chasing the car.
If it were on flat ground, it would be obviously impossible for a rabbit to catch up with a high-speed car. But now that the ground is bumpy, rabbits are chasing from behind, and the distance between them and the car is constantly getting closer.
"Mr. Shen, the rabbit is rushing towards us, let's run!" Lu Zheng said to Shen Feng in a panic.
After hearing what Lu Zhengqi said, Shen Feng was nonchalant. He looked at the rearview mirror and said, "You are too timid, aren't you just a rabbit? With such a small size, why worry? No matter how many rabbits there are, It can’t hurt us either.”
"Mr. Shen, these rabbits can eat people. When I was at the base, I read the news. Some hunters were hunting on the grassland, but they were eaten by rabbits until no bones or dregs were left. Moreover, there are so many rabbit holes now, and their The number is probably unimaginable, millions are possible!" Lu Zheng said in a panic.
When Shen Feng heard this introduction, he couldn't help but get interested. The mutated beasts he faced in Yuzhou were mainly animals from the mountains. Although there were also mutated rabbits, they were not too many. Mutated beasts are mainly wild boars and rats. Wild boars have almost no natural enemies in the mountains of the south. After all, there are basically no wolves and tigers in the south, and they can only be seen in zoos.
Shen Feng didn't know what it would be like to be surrounded by countless rabbits, so he could only deal with it carefully.
The number of rabbits coming out of the rabbit hole has been increasing. Tens of thousands of rabbits came out of the hole and ran towards the pickup truck, gradually converging into a torrent. For these mutated rabbits, normal time is They eat grass for a living, so many rabbits gather together and even eat away the grass. However, if an animal appears in front of them, they will also eat meat.
Yue Hengyi looked at a lot of rabbits behind the car and couldn't help but said: "Crazy, these rabbits are all crazy. Not only do they not run away when they see humans, but they also rush over. It's unbelievable!"
If a huge mutant beast attacks humans, Yue Hengyi will not think there is any problem. After all, given its size, both lions and tigers will eat humans, but rabbits, a species at the bottom of the animal world, have also begun to attack. Human beings, this is unimaginable.
