Chapter four hundred and eighty fifth towering tree
Shen Feng could not imagine that a mere mutated plant could have a huge coverage area and was not afraid of flames. This was even more exaggerated. It was equivalent to the fact that the plant's weakness had been solved. If you want to attack mutated plants in the future, the flame offensive would probably be too much. Difficult.
"Come on, let's go back. I prostituted the prophet for two days of fruit for free. Forget it, it's too difficult here!" Shen Feng sighed and chose to take a detour to return.
Even if Shen Feng was very fast, it still took him a full two hours to return to the volcano. At this time, Yue Hengyi had already escaped from the woods, but he was much more embarrassed, and his clothes were in tatters. In the process of escaping, he was scratched by a branch.
"Sister-in-law, is the cassava delicious? Can I try it?" Yue Hengyi said shamelessly.
Originally, he had caught the wild boar. If the mutated plants had not appeared, Yue Hengyi would have been full by now. However, he was attacked and could only throw the wild boar away. Now that he is back, he can only shamelessly eat cassava.
"Here you go!" The kind-hearted elder sister quickly brought a bowl of cooked cassava to Yue Hengyi. It is full of carbohydrates and can definitely replenish energy. However, it lacks nutrients, vitamins, and protein, and it is impossible to have any. If you eat too much fat, you will become puffy.
Yue Hengyi was really hungry, so he rushed out of the woods, which consumed a lot of his energy. Now he continues to replenish energy.
"Look at your ability, you are not polite at all when eating, and you don't even know how to say thank you!" Shen Feng scolded angrily, and then looked at the eldest sister: "What, give me a bowl too, by the way, thank you. .”
While eating the tasteless cassava, Yue Hengyi said: "You still eat cassava like me. What's the difference? Have you found the true form of the mutated plant?"
Shen Feng shrugged, gnawed on the cassava and said, "I haven't found it. The area is too large. It is estimated that there are more than a hundred square kilometers covered by this mutant plant. If you want to find the original body, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. What about you?"
"I'm more dangerous, but you ran faster. You said 'split up' and disappeared. I used my powers to suppress the vines along the way, so I could escape. I found that as long as I left the range of the shadow, These mutated plants will not be able to catch up." Yue Hengyi replied.
Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi were squatting outside a house eating cassava. They both planned to give up. It wasn't that they didn't want to kill the monster, but that the monster was hiding too deep.
"In two days, eat more fruits. Anyway, you and I will basically not come to Southeast Asia in the future. If you miss it, you won't have to eat it in the future!" Shen Feng advised Yue Hengyi.
Yue Hengyi obviously understood the meaning of Shen Feng's words. He could see that Shen Feng was giving up now, so he continued: "I never said I couldn't come to Southeast Asia. If the world is peaceful in the future, I will bring Qin Kewei with me." For those who eat fruit here, it’s too hot at night and there are more mosquitoes, which is not good!”
The two of them were eating cassava while chatting. I have to say that cassava is very suitable for filling the stomach. After eating it, the feeling of fullness will last for a long time, but the taste is not good, and it is broken into starch. The pearls in milk tea are better.
At this time, Taluz walked over. Wherever he passed, the natives all bowed their heads respectfully and called "Prophet". He was very satisfied with this title and attitude, and always had a warm smile on his face.
"You two, you must have gained something by coming back so soon?" Taluc asked Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi.
Shen Feng nodded and said seriously: "Yes, we have a clue. In short, we need to collect more fruits in the past two days. We need to replenish energy. As for the battle with monsters, we can only figure it out in two days."
Yue Hengyi was very satisfied with Shen Feng's answer. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up. He was obviously ready to give up, but in the end he planned to eat and drink for two days. This is truly shameless.
Shen Feng is talking about business now with the mentality of stopping the loss in time. Anyway, it is impossible to find the original body of the mutated plant. He doesn't have time to do it. He seizes the time to eat fruit and walks away after eating it. After all, others can’t do anything to you.
However, at this time, Taluc said to Shen Feng: "Mr. Shen, Mr. Yue, please come with me. Maybe I can help you."
Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi looked at each other with suspicious expressions. Obviously they didn't think that others could give them any specific advice at this time, but they still followed Taluc, even if it was useless advice. It's better than nothing.
Taluc led the two of them to the foot of the cliff, then pointed to the top of the mountain and said, "Let's go up."
Shen Feng looked at the top of the mountain, which was more than 200 meters high, and couldn't help but said: "How do you go up the 90-degree cliff? I have no problem, can you do it?"
"Mr. Shen has overthought it. The slope here is not 90 degrees, but 85 degrees. In addition, we are not climbing directly. There are pine trees on the cliff. There is a rope here. Climb along the rope network. You can reach the top of the mountain." Taluz said quickly.
Taluz was the first to grab the rope and start climbing up the mountain. Shen Feng didn't need a rope. He used "Walking Like the Wind" and just clicked twice on the cliff to climb up the mountain. He was climbing straight up. , he was also the first to come to the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain is quite spacious, it is a circular area, relatively flat, and you can see the distance from here.
Southeast Asia is located at the boundary of the plate, so there is a lot of geological activity, so there are also many volcanoes, and volcanic eruptions often occur, so it is not difficult to find volcanoes in Southeast Asia, and there are many hot springs. If it were in peacetime, this place would It really can be considered a vacation spot.
Looking at the lush scenery in the distance, Shen Feng suddenly discovered something unusual. In the northern area, there was a huge tree rising directly from the ground. It was estimated to be more than 100 meters high. It was only the tallest tree in the world before. It is more than sixty meters, less than seventy meters, and now, some trees can easily grow to more than a hundred meters high. If it only grew after the end of the world, then this tree is growing too fast.
"Mr. Shen, look, this is what I'm going to tell you. Have you seen that big tree on the horizon? Every time at night, there will be an electromagnetic signal appearing in the direction of that tree! And the direction in which this signal appears is the general direction where the monster appears." Taluz said, pointing to the towering tree in the distance.
"Damn it, couldn't you have said it earlier? You had to wait until we came back after suffering a loss!" Shen Feng said angrily.
Yue Hengyi also pointed to the torn clothes on his body and said: "You are not honest. Do you know what kind of danger we encountered in searching for the monster? Let me tell you, this monster is not a mutated animal, but a mutated plant. !”
"Mutated plants? No wonder I have never seen the true face of monsters. They turn out to be mutated plants. They are hidden in the rainforest and are really not easy to find!" Taluc suddenly realized. Now it seems that the monsters in New Guinea are mutated plants. This is not easy to deal with.
Shen Feng looked at the towering tree in the distance and said: "It seems that this towering tree is the original body of the mutated plant. Only by finding a way to cut down or burn this tree can we truly eliminate this danger."
"Forget it, it's impossible! All the fires we made have been extinguished. It's obviously impossible to burn such a huge tree. It can't be cut down. We'd better think about it in the long term." Yue Hengyi sat on the ground. Looking at the forest in the distance in a daze.
What Yue Hengyi said about long-term planning is nothing more than one sentence, "Open up."
Taluz explained: "Actually, this large forest you see is actually just one tree!"
"A tree? How to explain?" Shen Feng asked.
Taluz said: "This is the tropics. The banyan trees in the rainforest can grow into a forest from one tree. When the banyan tree grows up, aerial roots will grow from the tree, which are tree roots that grow in the air and can also absorb Water and nutrients can grow into a big tree after falling to the ground, but in fact, it is connected to the mother body. There are more and more banyan trees, and there are more and more aerial roots. Eventually, a big banyan tree grows into a forest."
Only then did Shen Feng realize that the mutated plant he and Yue Hengyi had encountered was just one plant from beginning to end, but its coverage area was so large that it was completely reasonable to say it was the largest creature in the world.
"At night, I will go over there to see when the electromagnetic waves on the trees will appear?" Shen Feng asked.
"When the moon rises above the head, electromagnetic waves will appear for an hour, and after an hour, the electromagnetic waves will disappear." Taluz said quickly.
After getting this clue, Shen Feng had an idea in his mind, and continued to eat fruit for the rest of the day. At dusk, Shen Feng set out, carrying a gasoline can with him. He thought about why he would If the flame is extinguished, it must be that the fire is too ordinary and will be extinguished easily. But with gasoline, it is different. Even on the water, gasoline can burn.
"I want to see what kind of mutated plants are catching people everywhere. The flames formed by firewood will be extinguished, but what about the flames formed by gasoline?" Shen Feng thought silently in his heart.
Yue Hengyi stood at the door and shouted to Shen Feng: "Go early and come back early. Don't force yourself. If you really can't fight, just come back. Don't risk your life!"
Shen Feng shrugged and didn't say anything. He just left like a ghost, so fast that no one could see clearly.
Shen Feng found the direction of the towering tree, stepped on the leaves and kept moving forward. Even if he carried a gasoline can, he had no problem standing on the leaves, because Shen Feng also had a trick of "walking on water". It's no problem standing on the water, but now it's even easier to stand on the leaves.
The closer he got to the towering trees, Shen Feng found that the trees around him were getting thicker and thicker, with vines hanging down from the sky, and many of the vines still had water droplets on them.
The climate in the rain forest changes at a glance. While on the way, it suddenly started to rain. The dense rain forest suddenly became dark. Shen Feng stood on the leaves and looked down. Apart from the sound of rain, there was nothing in the forest. He couldn't hear anything, not even the chirping of insects or birds. Shen Feng's body quickly got wet. He didn't use the "Wind King Barrier". It was unwise to waste his energy trying to block the rain.
When Shen Feng arrived near the towering tree, he was immediately startled by the situation in front of him. Next to the towering tree, there were all thick trees. Trees more than 20 meters high could be seen everywhere, and among these On the trees, vines and rhizomes hang down. At the ends of some rhizomes, there are animals hanging one by one, including humans and mutant beasts. They are all hung below the rhizomes. The fine rhizomes form a circle below. Animals are wrapped in cages, and some roots have extended straight into the body, seemingly absorbing nutrients.
Seeing this scene, Shen Feng immediately thought of the plants imprisoned in Yuzhou's laboratory. There was also a cage extending from above. All the captured animals were stuffed into the cage, and in the end, the corpses would be digested by the food in the cage. The liquid corrodes and eventually turns into energy, providing energy for the tree people.
"I'll go, are there tree people here?" Shen Feng quickly looked around to see if there was any danger.
If the tree people were discovered, Shen Feng would of course turn around and run away without saying a word. He might be able to kill one or two tree people now, but facing a large number of tree people, Shen Feng still would not be able to deal with them.
The rain did not last long. After half an hour, the rain stopped. The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and the moon and stars reappeared overhead.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Shen Feng quickly poured gasoline and poured a circle of gasoline around the roots of the big tree. At this time, there was not much gasoline left in the gasoline barrel. The big tree was really too big, just in diameter. Ten meters, the height is even more unpredictable. The nearby trees are not impressive at all, and no tree can compare with the towering tree.
