Not long after the car left the city, it suddenly stopped.
"What happened?" Murong Xi, who was using emoticons to suppress Xiao Ziming in the chat group, was startled and asked quickly.
"It's hard to get through." The driver spread his hands helplessly.
Lin Xi saw that the original road leading to the Flame Mountain was gone, replaced by towering trees with lush foliage and various strange and weird plants.
You can vaguely see squirrels, sparrows, deer, wild boars, weasels and other wild animals.
Under the influence of the revival of spiritual energy, these wild animals have undergone some changes to a greater or lesser extent.
Just now, when Lin Xi was in the car, he saw a little beast with a tail like a banana fan, floating down from the top of a tree dozens of meters high, and disappeared into the woods with a swish.
"There was a road here when I came here before, but now the road has completely disappeared and cars can't drive in."
Murong Xi and Mu Yuxun got out of the car. It was about 10 kilometers away from the foot of the mountain. It seemed that they could only hike into the mountain.
At this time, the off-road vehicle following them also stopped.
Two young monks got off the off-road vehicle and walked towards Lin Xi and the others.
The young man in a Taoist robe and the woman in a goose-yellow skirt walking in front have a good temperament, and their cultivation level is probably at the peak of the day after tomorrow. They seem to be quite strong.
Several people said hello, put on their wilderness survival equipment and prepared to set off.
At this time, Lin Xi saw Mu Yuxun walking over carrying a large suitcase.
Oops.
This box is big enough.
Girl, are you out for an outing or moving?
Mu Yuxun's figure is so slender that people can't help but worry that she will be crushed by the suitcase.
"Sister Pastor, just leave the rough work of carrying things to me."
Xiao Ziming patted his chest and volunteered to come forward.
Your licking dog is online!
"Since he wants to carry the luggage, Sister Mu will help him." Murong Xi smiled and hung the hiking bag on Xiao Ziming, "It's okay to carry one, and it's okay to carry two. I've also given my bag to you, come on.
.”
Murong Xi made a cheering gesture and walked in front of her relaxedly.
Xiao Ziming: Are you a devil?
Lin Xi passed by him and led a few people through this primitive area, heading towards the Flame Mountain.
Since both Murong Xi and Mu Yuxun were cultivators, their physical strength was much better than that of ordinary people. Their feet were extremely fast and they reached the foot of the mountain in less than an hour.
"It's finally here."
Xiao Ziming, who was carrying the box, was covered in sweat and looked up at the endless mountains in front of him.
"Wait, there's danger!"
Just as Xiao Ziming continued to walk forward, a hand suddenly placed on his shoulder and pulled him back.
In the majestic mountains shrouded in clouds and mist, there was a terrifying roar, startling countless birds. In the forest not far from them, a huge beast shadow was slowly passing by.
"python?"
Xiao Ziming's heart tightened, and he quickly retracted his extended foot.
It wasn't that he had never seen a python before, but he had never seen one that big.
Forest pythons that live in tropical and subtropical jungles have a maximum body length of about 3.5 meters. The brown forest python that I just passed by was visually over 8 meters long, more than twice the length of an ordinary python.
Forest pythons are ferocious omnivorous predators that feed on goats, deer, wild boars, bamboo rats and other animals.
However, forest pythons can go without food for months after they are full and will not actively attack humans.
Lin Xi remembered that he had read on the Internet that pythons can mate for more than three hours, so some people think that eating python meat can delay mating.
Thinking about it this way, Xu Xian in The Legend of White Snake should have an indestructible kidney so that he could have a child with the White Lady.
After bypassing this huge forest python, Lin Xi, Xiao Ziming and others finally stepped into the Flame Mountain.
This area was originally a scenic spot with a cable car going up the mountain.
But after the sudden change in the world, the mountains here have undergone great changes. The previous road into the mountains has completely disappeared, and the visitor center has long ceased operations.
The closer Lin Xi got to this mountain, the more he felt how huge the Flame Mountain was.
It was like they had walked into a primeval forest.
The vegetation is lush, and there are exotic flowers and wild animals everywhere.
"Hey, there's a pond over there!"
At this time, Xiao Ziming's eyes lit up. He discovered that not far from them, there was a pond with green pods floating in it.
Next to the pond, there is a wild apple tree that is only about half a meter tall. There are several clusters of heavy oval fruits hanging under the green leaves.
The fruits growing on the wild apple trees are bright red, each one is as big as an adult's fist, and exude a very rich fruity aroma that makes people move their index fingers.
These fruits look similar to the red snake fruits sold in supermarkets, but the aroma is much stronger than ordinary red snake fruits.
Xiao Ziming couldn't help but lick his dry lips. He had long been thirsty after walking on the mountain road for so long, so he just picked an apple to quench his thirst.
"You guys stay here and don't go away. I'm going to pick some apples."
"I'm going with Brother Ming." Murong Chong, who was wearing sunglasses, also followed.
With that said, Xiao Ziming and Murong Chong took three steps and two steps at a time and trotted towards the pond.
As he walked over, the sound of frogs came from the pond.
I saw a few huge and plump green frogs jumping into the pond.
By the pond, Murong Chong couldn't wait to pick a red fruit, washed it, opened his mouth and bit it.
Click.
The moment he bit into it, delicious juice exploded in his mouth.
The taste is several times more delicious than the freshly squeezed juice in the supermarket, and it is original.
So delicious!
Seeing Murong Chong's satisfied expression, Xiao Ziming swallowed his saliva, picked off a fruit and was about to eat it. Suddenly, a white figure jumped out from the side with great ferocity.
Before Xiao Ziming could react, his lower back was hit hard by the figure, and he flew forward three to four meters.
"Who plotted against me?"
When he turned around, his face couldn't help but change, showing a dumbfounded expression.
The slender neck, white feathers, bright red sarcoma that looks like blood...
Is this a social goose?
The raptor that attacked Xiao Ziming looked like a big goose that you usually see, but the size of this goose was a little too huge.
It stands as tall as an adult, its wings extend even more than two meters, and its weight is far greater than that of an average goose.
The sarcoma on his forehead was as red as a ruby.
The long and flat beak is like a spear. If it is struck, it will hurt to death.
"Spirit beast!"
Xiao Ziming, who was chased and bullied by social geese when he was young, was scared at that time.
At this moment, the social goose that appeared by the pond saw the red fruit that fell on the ground, and a murderous look flashed in his dark eyes. He spread his wings and jumped up, and rushed towards the two of them.
