At this moment, Bai Xiaoke, the green meat melon outside, must be very anxious and angry...
What occupies the inside of the tree roots is the continuous, "gurgling" sound of water - opening your eyes, you will see that the inside of the tree roots is not as dark and invisible as Lin Sanjiu imagined, but instead is a vast expanse of white mist.
, from time to time a large number of beards swim past quickly.
Although it felt like if he did this, he would be a little sorry for his companions' worries, but Lin Sanjiu still couldn't hold back the hunger in his belly and found the half bowl of instant heat leftover from the last time in his card library.
noodle.
All items turned into cards will remain in the same state as before they were turned into cards; therefore, as soon as the noodle bowl was held in her hand, the steaming hot steam mixed with the aroma of assorted seafood suddenly hit her face - before leaving
, she had hung a backpack full of food on the waist of the robot doll, which was enough to last for more than half a month, so she didn't have to worry about the three people outside being hungry.
Judging from the feeling of her body, another day has passed since she entered the root of the tree.
When he was first sucked into the roots of the tree, Lin Sanjiu finally tasted what Bai Xiaoke and others had suffered: the mucus was so thick that it was almost uncut, wrapped in countless thin whiskers, like a thick sheet.
Like wet paper, it immediately covered her head and face - her ears, eyes, and nose. A slight itching sensation quickly came from her nose, indicating that there were whiskers trying to get inside.
The air has actually been isolated for a long time. If you want to keep breathing, you must vigorously absorb the little oxygen in the mucus gaps. This undoubtedly provides an unobstructed path for the thin beard. Soon, the lungs begin to
The fire was getting hotter and I didn't know if something had gotten into it.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for these things to lose their enthusiasm for her.
When the suffocation, burning, wetness and itching gradually subsided from Lin Sanjiu, she moved her eyes and watched helplessly as a long white beard stretched out from under her nose - accompanied by
Feeling an itch as if someone had scratched her bones, the whisker swam out of her nasal cavity, turned around and disappeared into the white mucus.
After seeing such a scene happen to him, and being able to calmly suck hot noodles into his mouth, Lin Sanjiu felt that his psychological quality seemed to have become stronger again.
——The reason why she can eat noodles so leisurely at this moment is thanks to a capsule she collected during the New Year Fighting Competition.
At that time, in order to escape from the competition, she turned her capsule into a card; then things happened one after another, and more and more things were taken in, and she never even thought of such a thing.
If it weren't for the difficulty in breathing and the vague thought of "It would be great if there was a box to put me in", Lin Sanjiu might still be struggling right now.
What surprised her the most was that the slight corrosiveness in the mucus seemed to be nothing to the capsule. After drifting for such a long time, the capsule wall still looked good, just a little stained.
Perhaps he felt that this thing could not provide him with nutrients - during the process of moving forward, Lin Sanjiu noticed two or three times that the capsule seemed to be being pushed outward by waves of mucus.
After finally getting in, she certainly wouldn't let the roots of the tree "vomit" her out. Once she noticed that the capsule began to swing from side to side, she put it away, called out the long knife, and inserted it tightly into the white hard skin.
Fix one's position - after doing this a few times, maybe the tree roots have realized the pain, and finally acquiesced to the existence of this thing, wrapped the capsule in the mucus without discrimination, and flowed in an unknown direction.
Putting down the empty noodle bowl, Lin Sanjiu looked through the capsule wall at the length of rope she tied outside.
This idea came to her not long ago. She could judge where she was walking by the direction in which the rope swung. At this time, the rope was being swayed left and right by an oncoming stream of mucus. Lin Sanjiu observed it for a while.
Then I saw that it was floating faintly upward.
...Does this mean that he is indeed moving downwards?
She raised her head in disbelief, and pieces of mucus slowly flowed in her field of vision like white mist.
Even though the flow rate was not fast, Lin Sanjiu stayed inside the roots of the tree for more than a day; based on half an hour and one kilometer, she was already fifty or sixty kilometers underground now?
... However, the white tree roots in front of me did not change at all inside, and they were still moving downwards, as if they were going all the way into the heart of the earth.
At such a depth, Lin Sanjiu had no other choice but to sit in the capsule and wait. At this time, the tree root that accommodated her also became her life-saving rope: if this tree root suddenly
Without it, or if he was accidentally pushed outside by it, Lin Sanjiu would sink into the deep, dark soil, and be crushed to pieces by the weight of the earth before he could suffocate.
Once he thought of this, the leisurely feeling he felt while eating noodles disappeared. Lin Sanjiu's gaze gradually became a little nervous as he stared at the ground of the capsule, fearing that if he let go of the slightest move, he would be thought of at some point.
The roots of her tree were pushed out.
When the liquid flows, the "rustling" sound hitting the capsule repeats monotonously for a long time, making people feel as if the world is only the scene in front of them.
The fatigue of many consecutive days was numbed and touched by the rustling, and gradually floated up from the blood and bones.
Her eyelids began to get heavier and heavier. Lin Sanjiu blinked hard and took a deep breath, but she thought vaguely in her heart - even if she fell asleep, she would still feel it as long as the capsule shook, right?
...She just fell asleep unconsciously.
It seemed that he was warning himself not to sleep a second ago, but when the capsule shook and Lin Sanjiu woke up suddenly, he realized that he had been asleep for an unknown period of time. The capsule stabilized immediately, and it seemed that he had just been hit by a burst of energy.
There was a turbulent flow. She picked up the noodle bowl and looked at it, and found that the remaining layer of soup had dried up and turned into a layer of hard lumps; her legs were also numb because of poor posture.
"It looks like it's been six or seven hours...why hasn't there been any change?"
She muttered something, turned her head, and was caught off guard by a face with a pale smile.
Even though she had gone through hundreds of battles, the hairs all over Lin Sanjiu's body still stood up. She suppressed the scream that almost broke out in her throat and took two steps back. Only then did she realize that this person's face was in the middle of the body.
Beyond capsules.
After staring at it for about ten seconds, Lin Sanjiu felt that her heartbeat had stabilized. She stepped forward and took a closer look, and her heart suddenly twisted into a ball.
This is a strange man who just drifted over along the mucus. There is almost no good skin left on his body. Because he is a key protection target, only his head and face can be seen at this time. His abdominal cavity and
The chest cavity was opened, and the edges of the crack were densely packed with small semicircles. It was obvious that after countless small holes were connected together, the human skin finally couldn't hold it and cracked, and something like fascia sank in the liquid.
Ups and downs.
The place where the internal organs used to be was empty, and Lin Sanjiu could see his spine at a glance - there was only a pale white color in the empty abdominal cavity.
This man's face was distorted when he died. Looking through the slightly corroded wall of the cyst, at first glance, he looked like he was smiling.
If Rabbit and the others had been fighting hard in the mucus, I'm afraid they would be no different from this man at this time.
The excitement just now had completely driven away the sleepiness. Lin Sanjiu sat down worriedly, staring at his feet in a daze, trying to remember whether they had any abilities or special items that could guarantee their safety...
Huh?
Her thoughts paused and she turned her head.
The pale body of the man outside was still floating outside the capsule.
Something seems wrong...
Lin Sanjiu tilted her head, trying hard to find the thought that had just passed through her mind.
There was nothing surprising about a dead man floating in the tree roots. After all, these tree roots must have absorbed a large number of living things. However, what she had to notice was that the dead man was not here before.
If it was something absorbed by the same tree root, Lin Sanjiu must have seen it long ago - for example, the fat "free chicken" floating above her head was a traveling companion who accompanied her all the way.
Because the mucus flow rate is the same everywhere in the tree roots, it is impossible for things in front to slow down, or things behind to catch up.
She came closer, looked at the broken face, her heartbeat quickened, and she had a bold guess in her mind.
Lin Sanjiu forced herself to calm down and waited for a long time. Sure enough, the capsule vibrated several times one after another.
It wasn't that the tree roots were pushing her outward - some of these shocks lasted for a long time, and some passed by in a flash; not long after the shock ended, she could always find that the surrounding environment had changed.
The "free-range chicken" on the head was swept away by the turbulent current. The dead body just now was also far behind. There were suddenly more creatures inside the roots of the tree, floating one by one around the capsule.
The space is full of new faces that I have never seen before.
Several evolvers seemed to be still alive, and all kinds of life-saving methods were used: one was wrapped in thick gold ribbons, and one was glowing with black light - but even so, their situation was only worse than
The dead bodies are just a little stronger.
Lin Sanjiu hesitated for a long time, but finally did not save them into the capsule.
Even if they stood crowded together, there could only be room for two people at most in the capsule, so she had to think about her companions.
"Sorry, please hold on a little longer." She said lowly, more like comforting herself. "Now that all the mucus and organisms in the tree roots have converged... there will be a way out." r1152
