Chapter 168 So Obedient in the Rain and Fog Forest

After staying in the research institute for another day, after making preparations, Ruopu and the others set off for the rain and fog forest.

This time the team was worse than last time, both in terms of numbers and "quality".

This time Ouyang Chun did not come, which means that the mutated plants in the forest will not treat them as well as last time; Song Mingqing also did not come, which means that no one helped them drive away the mutated animals; Li Xi and the others didn't come either, which meant that compared with the last time, there was a lack of both doctors and firepower this time.

However, in Ruo Pu's view, their team this time is enough for a trip into the Rain and Fog Forest. Last time was the first time, so the preparation had to be a bit more. With the experience of last time, this time it can be reduced a bit.

The off-road vehicle sent everyone to the side of the rain and fog forest, and then everyone got off the car and started to walk. With Lin Zirui present, everyone traveled lightly and walked very briskly.

In fact, there are other space-type superpowers in the research institute, but the other party's ability is very limited, the space volume is small, and it cannot hold large things, and it cannot allow many people to enter for refuge. In short, it is very tasteless.

That's why Ruo Pu called Lin Zirui over.However, he originally planned to let Lin Zirui come over later, because the construction here has not been completed yet, and the conditions are not as good as Longgang, and it is not as comfortable as Longgang. However, since Song Mingqing wants to come, it is better to let Lin Zirui come together. People also have companions.

"Wild boar?" After entering the forest for 10 minutes, everyone vaguely saw an animal walking around in the bushes.

"No," Ruopu said, "it's a rabbit."

"No, I saw it had fangs." Lin Zirui said.

As soon as the words fell, the animal jumped out of the bushes, jumping three meters high, which surprised everyone, but it was okay, Ruopu knocked it unconscious easily.

The mutated rabbit fell from the sky to the ground, startling several fallen leaves.

Shi Yan asked: "Does it have crystal marrow in its body?"

"Wait a minute." In fact, when Ruo Pu stunned the rabbit with sound waves just now, he sensed that there is a crystal marrow in its body. However, the type of sound waves just now is not the most suitable for detecting crystal marrow. To be cautious, it is better to test again. Once is better.

Soon, the stunned rabbit twitched in front of everyone, looking very painful, and then Ruopu said firmly: "There is a crystal essence."

"Put it on before it wakes up." Lin Zirui took out a metal iron of suitable size from the space.

Everyone carried the wild boar-sized rabbit with tusks into the cage. Ruo Pu touched the rabbit's back. The fur was thick and not smooth. He was a little surprised. Is the wild rabbit's fur so rough?

After Lin Zirui retracted the cage into the space, everyone continued to move forward. Along the way, they caught the mutated animals that came to their door, dug them out when they encountered small mutated plants, and made them on the map when they encountered large mutated plants. Mark it, so that it will be convenient for researchers to come to conduct field research in the future.

At noon, everyone stopped to rest and eat.

Lin Zirui brought a lot of food, including vegetables and meat, rice and biscuits, Ruo Pu and Shi Yan both chose to eat rice and canned vegetables, and Ruo Pu picked out the lean meat from the can for Shi Yan to eat.

Lin Zirui thought it was a bit strange, but he didn't think much about it, and just said casually: "It's all lean meat, but it's really bad, and the taste of fat and thin is the best."

Ruopu: "That's not necessarily the case, the key is the tenderness of the meat."

Shi Yan said: "I don't like fatty meat mainly because I don't like its taste."

After chatting about food for a while, Ruopu said: "I found that there are more birds in the forest than last time."

"Really?" Everyone looked up at the various birds singing on the tall trees.

Lin Zirui asked, "What's the reason?"

"It should be that the number of raptors at the top of the food chain has decreased."

When it comes to birds of prey, people who have been in the rain and mist forest last time immediately think of one: "Oh, the big eagle last time!"

The big eagle almost captured one of their team members last time, it was fierce enough.

"Where are they?"

"I don't know." Ruopu knew, because his sister took him away.He looked at Shi Yan, and Shi Yan also looked at him, and the two quietly held hands with their eyes, and then looked away.

Going forward, when turning up a hill with a slow slope, Shi Yan said: "Stop, the tree in front is a relatively powerful mutant plant."

Along the way, they encountered many mutated plants, but none of the previous ones were as powerful as the current one.

Everyone stopped, and the tree that Shi Yan mentioned was about seven or eight stories high. In the outside world, this height is already quite high, but here, there is still a certain gap from the average height.

Everyone looked at the unattractive tree and didn't understand how powerful it was.

Ruopu took the initiative to provoke with sound waves——

Sigh, a large mass of hidden weapons attacked everyone.

Ruopu quickly shattered them, and the broken leaves fluttered down one after another.

Fang Yujian had lingering fears: "The animals and plants here like to play with hidden weapons too much."

The last time he came, he was stabbed by the ice arrows from the fish in the middle.

Shi Yan lowered his head to look at the ground, bent down and stretched out his hand to a leaf fragment that was very close to him. Ruopu held his hand, and then took out a long-handled tweezers-like thing and put it in his hand: "Be careful, What if it is poisonous? Even if it is not poisonous, I think it is quite sharp."

The leaves have a reflective texture, like metal, especially the edges of the leaves, which look very sharp.

Shi Yan picked up the leaf fragment and looked at it, then put it into the sample bag. "Has this tree absorbed crystal marrow?"

"I'll have to take a closer look to find out."

This tree is too tall, and after the crystal pit is fused, it is too thin, so it is not so easy to observe whether there are some unnatural and disharmonious conditions in the tree.

"Zi Rui, take everyone into your space to hide for a while, and then come out after five minutes."

The 5 minutes mentioned by Ruo Pu does not refer to the 5 minutes in Lin Zirui's space, but the 5 minutes in the real world.

The flow of time in Lin Zirui's space is much slower than reality, so it's actually not that easy to stay in. The time is abnormal, silent and empty. Whether it's an animal or a person, it's easy to collapse if you stay in it for a long time.However, it will be better when there are many people, everyone will distract each other, and time will pass faster.

Lin Zirui: "Okay."

Shi Yan looked at Ruo Pu, and Ruo Pu bent his eyes at him: "See you later."

Shi Yan nodded.

5 minutes is very short in the real world. It took Ruo Pu a little time to walk under the tree, and a little more time to find out if there is a crystal in the tree. This tree is very difficult to get. It's almost here, Ruopu is in a hurry, so he pulls the leaves hard...

When Lin Zirui and the others came back, they saw that the lush trees were almost bald, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves that seemed to be made of metal.

Ruopu said: "It also absorbed the crystal essence."

Shi Yan nodded, and handed the map to Ruo Pu, who marked the location on the map.

After that, they encountered some more powerful plants one after another. As for animals, the deeper they went into the forest, the fewer powerful mutant animals.

Ruo Pu speculated that the deeper you went into the forest, the closer you would be to the national border. Those mutated animals with crystal essence in their bodies should have crossed the national border to the south - they were summoned by his sister's black crystal.

However, the national border is Suruga, how are those animals going to cross this big river at the bottom of the cliff?

Did his sister bridge them?

After arriving at the edge of the Junjiang River, after walking along the river bank for a long time, Ruopu was surprised to find that there was really a bridge on the Junjiang River.

And it's not the rattan bridge made by Ouyang Chun, but a more natural wooden bridge.

A giant tree stands across the Junjiang River. The distance between the two sides of this section of the river is not as narrow as that of Ouyang Chunjian Bridge last time. It is "only" seven to eighty meters wide. The width here is hundreds of meters. The length is twice the width of the channel.

Everyone was amazed: "Who pushed down such a big tree?"

Shi Yan: "Mutated plants can move by themselves."

"..."

Yes, there are many plants that move in the rain and fog forest, but they are basically slow, and they can't move one meter a day.

Because of this, basically only animals migrate to the other side.

Ruopu used his sonic radar to observe the opposite bank. There were animals and humans. I don’t know what type of animal it was—with or without crystal pith?There is a high probability that there should be no crystal essence, and the ones with crystal essence should have been collected by his sister, at least the aggressive ones should be collected.

Ruo Pu felt a little heavy, and whispered to Shi Yan: "Last time I really thought too simply. If I could have thought that my sister would bring those mutated animals out of the rain and fog forest, I should have found a way to prevent this."

What he thought last time was that his sister could cause troubles on the border of Zhongzhou by controlling the crystal marrow creatures in the Rain and Mist Forest. What he didn't expect was that his sister would bring those creatures out of the Rain and Mist Forest...

Ruo Pu felt that his sister was capable of making troubles all over the world—as long as the transportation was convenient enough.

Shi Yan looked at Ruopu: "It feels like you have a good relationship with your sister, but you don't trust her very much in some aspects."

Originally, Shi Yan would not say such things, but now that he is Ruo Pu's boyfriend, it is reasonable to have an in-depth chat about each other's family situations.

Ruopu was slightly stunned, and then said: "Because I might do the same thing as my sister."

Shi Yan: "You won't."

"I don't believe in myself as much as you believe me. I may use all means when dealing with the enemy." Ruo Pu will always remember the picture of "self" devouring people. There should be similarities between his sister and him, after all, their genes very close.

Ruo Pu approached Shi Yan, and whispered in his ear: "There are many things you will never do, so you can't imagine how degraded a person can be."

Shi Yan turned his head to look at Ruo Pu, because the two were very close, his lips brushed against Ruo Pu's cheek. "It's not impossible to imagine, but you can't."

Ruopu blinked: "You kissed me just now, you want me to kiss you too."

Shi Yan: "..."

"But it's not very convenient here..." Ruo Pu pouted on Shi Yan's face as he spoke.

Shi Yan: ...Didn't it be inconvenient?

He looked around.Others didn't pay special attention to them, but they didn't have to pay special attention to them to discover their abnormalities.

Ruo Pu smiled.

Shi Yan looked at him and continued the previous topic: "The animals here should still be suitable for living in the jungle. If your sister takes them out, they may not be able to adapt to the outside environment."

Ruo Pu thought for a while, then nodded, just solving the food problem was enough for his sister to have a headache... His sister's animal army might not be as scary as he imagined.

He felt a lot more relaxed, and he showed a brighter smile when he rushed.

So good, Shi Yan couldn't help but patted his head.
