The nest rests on an old tree with a wooden support underneath and is lifted about one meter off the ground.
The nest body is made of branches with different thicknesses and curvatures, and the cracks in the middle are densely covered by leaves. The whole thing looks like an upright blue-black mottled giant egg, with a half-covered arched movable door, also made of
It is woven with branches and leaves. At first glance, it looks a little rough, but after a little thought, you have to admit that it actually follows a rather delicate mechanical structure.
It was still quiet. "Is he asleep or no one is there?" Yinsheng said to himself, took two steps closer, tilted his head and looked into the nest through the door gap, and said, "I'm not at home.
"
Sun Hua asked: "What should we do? Wait here, or..."
Yin Sheng smiled: "Just shout. You won't go too far. Lao Li——" He made a trumpet shape with his hands and shouted loudly to the surroundings: "Hey - Lao Li!"
Everyone looked around.
"Here we come." Yinsheng said suddenly.
There were rustling sounds. The sound of branches being pulled. Looking up from the sound, a green figure was approaching quickly - it really didn't look like a person anymore.
His body surface is covered with scales the size of fingernails, reflecting a ghostly green light against the light coming from between the branches and leaves.
He came very quickly, almost as if he was flying. In fact, he was gliding in an agile manner. The insides of his arms were connected to his torso, and they spread out due to the gliding action. They were two huge
There are no scales on the wing membrane. It seems to be thin and has been fully illuminated by the light, turning it into a vibrant oily green.
This kind of alienated face is not immune to this, as if it has an exoskeleton. The weight loss on the face is particularly obvious, like a tuberculosis ghost who is about to die.
"Hey - I'm here to see you," Yinsheng said in a cheerful tone, not minding the terrifying appearance of the half-alien in front of him. He took two steps forward and hugged him warmly, and the half-alien also
She patted his shoulder with her slender arms covered with wings.
"This is Academician Li Qingjiang from Zhongzhou Research Institute." After the two of them separated, he introduced. Then he leaned over and picked up a large package that had just been placed at his feet: "Look at what I brought. It's the same as last time.
You said you wanted it and bought a lot of your favorite things. How are you these days?"
Li Qingjiang looked very grateful: "Excuse me, excuse me, thank you for still thinking about me."
He carried the package into his nest. When he entered, the door opened, and everyone could see. The interior of the nest was lined with dark gray tarpaulin, and a simple square table was placed next to a pile of bedding.
There's even a foldable computer on the table.
"It's been fine these days," Li Qingjiang stroked the lighter-colored scales on his bare belly, "The degree of alienation has not changed, and it seems to have stabilized. You don't have to worry."
Yinsheng looked at him helplessly: "Is it possible? Don't worry."
Li Qingjiang looked at the crowd to take the topic away from himself: "Who are these?"
Yinsheng said: "From the Longhu District Special Operations Group, you should..."
"Guo Yanshi!" Li Qingjiang took a step forward and shook hands with Guo Jiu: "Although I have stayed here all these years, I have heard of you a lot. It's rare to see you today. You are really a young talent. You are so impressive.
Same. The young people today are amazing, amazing."
Guo Jiu smiled: "No, it's still much worse than the seniors."
Li Qingjiang said: "I heard about the recent chain mutation incident that also involved plants. They also invited me to come over for a meeting, but I couldn't get there with my appearance. You seemed to be at the scene at the time?...
…”
Guo Jiu nodded. Li Qingjiang immediately went back to his nest, took out his computer, and discussed academic issues with him eloquently. Yan Luyi and others were left alone, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"I'm sorry," Yinsheng walked over and whispered, "They don't like to deal with strangers, of course...except for this...special situation. Yanshi Li is a great scientist. After discovering body mutations, he decided to
Follow your instinctive desires, live in the self-consistent zone, and make detailed records and research. This is very valuable first-hand information." He looked back and saw that the discussion between Li Qingjiang and Guo Jiu seemed to be endless, and said:
"It looks like they are still going to talk for a while. Can I take everyone to look elsewhere first?"
Xi Lingyan was the first to agree: "Okay, okay."
"Old Li!" Yinsheng turned around and said hello to Li Qingjiang: "We are going elsewhere first, you can chat slowly. Captain Guo, we will come back to pick you up later."
Yan Luyi asked Guo Jiu for his opinion with his eyes. He nodded, indicating that she could follow Yinsheng with confidence.
Feng Jiiling lifted up her skirt and sat down on the rotten tree trunk next to her: "I'll wait for him here."
Yinsheng agreed: "Okay." He picked up a few supply bags originally carried by Feng Jiling and waved to everyone: "Let's go!"
Under the leadership of Yinsheng, we saw several semi-foreign people who were quite alienated. One of them was even chewing on a piece of bloody animal leg meat. Yinsheng greeted him, and he turned around and
Everyone was shocked.
Yan Luyi handed him the supply package. His rough and hairy face smiled in a friendly and simple manner: "Thank you, thank you." He lowered his head to unpack and took a look: "They are all good things, but they are much better than those given above.
.”
There were also some semi-aliens who were not friendly. When he saw a group of people approaching his residence, he immediately got up and hid in a small shed made of simple wooden boards.
Sun Hua waved the package in his hand and shouted loudly: "Hey - don't be afraid, we are here to deliver supplies!"
A cold snort came from far away in the shed: "Who cares about your rags? Are you taking nuts into the mountains to watch monkeys?"
Sun Hua looked embarrassed: "No, no, no, you misunderstood. We are really kind-hearted in sending supplies." He put the package down next to the small shed: "The things are left here for you."
A small dark hand suddenly stretched out from behind the curtain of the shed. It grabbed the package he had put down and threw it back in the direction where he was speaking.
This blow was so powerful that Sun Hua was almost knocked to the ground: "Oops!"
"Shh-" Yin Sheng supported him and raised his hand to make a silent gesture: "I don't like to be disturbed, let's go quickly."
After distributing the supplies they brought, they went back in a long circle. Li Qingjiang and Guo Jiu were still discussing enthusiastically. Seeing everyone coming over, they seemed reluctant to leave: "Oh, you are leaving now. Yanshi Guo, let's go back to the Internet
Keep talking."
Guo Jiu smiled and agreed: "Okay."
"So reluctant." Yin Sheng smiled: "So you should think about it quickly."
Li Qingjiang said: "I will consider it, but first I have to wait until the report I have is finished."
Yinsheng nodded seriously: "Okay. I will wait for you. No matter when, as long as you are willing, the door is always open to you."
