Mud mixed with gravel poured down, burying most of the nose of the machine.
The dark and thick armor of the transport plane was completely twisted and deformed at this time. Huge holes had opened in some places. The fuselage was filled with thick smoke and was about to explode at any time.
About ten seconds after the collision.
With a harsh metal groan, a silver-white knife tip suddenly poked out of the fuselage, and then cut a big circle like cutting tofu. The next moment, there was a loud bang, and a round piece of metal was cut by a jet of force. The huge force bounced four to five meters away.
One after another, figures jumped off the fuselage quickly. These figures were in a miserable state, and almost all of them were injured.
Luo Yuan handed Zhao Yali to Wang Xiuguang and told them to get away from the place quickly. He and a few soldiers quickly ran back and dragged out two inhuman corpses.
These two people were the pilots. The cockpit of the transport plane had been completely deformed under the violent impact, and was then heavily suppressed by a large amount of gravel. The pilot inside did not even have a chance to escape, and died directly. If not Luo Yuan and the soldiers desperately dug away the rubble with their hands, but they might not even be able to find the body.
Luo Yuan originally wanted to rescue the giant lizard, but with his strength, he could not push the container at all. Seeing that the smoke was getting thicker, he had no choice but to run out of the transport plane. However, considering the power of the transport plane explosion, it should not be able to kill the monitor lizard, not to mention that it was still in the container.
It was still late at night, and the surroundings were pitch black, but for Luo Yuan, who had full night vision, there was no way to block his sight.
In the distance, there are lofty mountains and ridges, and the endless forest sea stretches as far as the eye can see along the steep slopes to the endless horizon. This is a scene that looks like a prehistoric world, without any trace of civilization.
Except for the endless forest, it is still a forest.
The dense branches and leaves cover the sky like a network, like an overwhelming green carpet.
There are many big trees as thick as a hug here. Some tree roots are directly exposed to the air. They are thick and knotted, extending hundreds of meters like pythons. There are also tree vines as thick as thighs intertwined with each other.
Compared with the large trees in the Jiangnan area that have been artificially exterminated repeatedly and are mostly only one year old, most of these trees are large in size, with dark green and dull leaves, and bark that is cracked and rough, with a sense of accumulation over time.
Anyone can see that this is not a plain, but a primitive mountain forest. Even before the end of the world, this place is still a dangerous place. Poisonous insects and beasts emerge in an endless stream, making it difficult for people to guard against, not to mention the end of the world, which is full of dangers.
"Does anyone know where this is?" Luo Yuan checked Zhao Yali's situation, then turned around and asked. When the transport plane crashed into the hillside, Luo Yuan failed to react in time and was accidentally hit by the cabin. However, the problem was not serious, just a bag and some skin injuries.
"This probably belongs to the Kunlun Mountains. I don't know exactly where. Judging from the flight distance, it shouldn't be too far from the reconstruction area." Captain Xia shook his head and said, his voice was a little hoarse. It was unclear whether he was injured. , blood kept dripping from his hair, covering his entire face.
Luo Yuan looked around and couldn't help but feel a little irritated.
The terrain here is steep and the woods are dense. Let alone the road, even if you see mountains and water, you will probably get lost within a short time. You don’t know how long it will take to get out from here.
"Boom!" At this time, the transport plane exploded, erupting into a dazzling flame in the darkness, rushing hundreds of meters, and then turned into a dark mushroom cloud.
"You guys wait here, please pay attention to your safety. I'll go take a look." Luo Yuan said, worried about the situation of the giant lizard.
"Then come back quickly!" Huang Jiahui said nervously. At night in the forest, there is a lot of noise, weird insects, dull beasts, and the occasional human-like laughter and crying. Coupled with the dark environment, it is like being in a ghost, making everyone's scalp numb. .
Luo Yuan nodded and ran quickly towards the transport plane.
The fire appeared and disappeared just as quickly. A few seconds later, only the smoke was curling up on the transport plane.
Because of the lack of fuel, the explosion was not very powerful. The transport plane still had a complete iron frame, and there was basically no more deformation. Luo Yuan got into the transport cabin through the gap that was originally torn, and found that several containers had been destroyed. Blackened, two of them were affected by the explosion from the front, and were completely sunk in, like a ball that was crushed by a kick.
However, the container the monitor lizard was in was fine at all, it was just slightly dented.
After all, the container itself is thickened, so the explosion cannot completely deform it.
Luo Yuan stepped forward, pulled out his sword and cut off the iron chains that fixed the container one by one. Then he inserted the tip of the knife into the gap in the container and cut quickly along the welding area of the container. Soon he opened the opening of the container.
Luo Yuan found that the monitor lizard had woken up, with its eyes half-open and half-closed, and seemed very lethargic. Apparently, the powerful explosion just now had woken it up.
Seeing Luo Yuan, the monitor lizard seemed to perk up and whimpered feebly, as if to express its pity.
Unfortunately, Luo Yuan didn't understand at all. He patted the giant lizard's huge head, comforted it for a while, and continued working. Soon, the huge container was demolished by him with a knife, and the entire huge body of the giant lizard was completely exposed.
It seemed to feel free. It shook its head vigorously and struggled to stand up, but as soon as its limbs lifted up its body, its whole body went limp and it fell to the ground again.
It lowered its head dejectedly, looked at Luo Yuan with drooped eyelids, and whimpered feebly.
Its condition seemed to take a long time to fully recover. Luo Yuan looked at the time. It was twelve o'clock in the evening, five or six hours before dawn. Such a short time is obviously not enough for the monitor lizard to fully recover and eliminate the sequelae of the anesthetic.
He hesitated for a moment, then ran back to open the snake skin package, picked out a few pieces of the giant snake's internal organs, and strung them with a tough grass stem, weighing about forty or fifty pounds.
When they came back, the monitor lizard smelled the fragrance, raised its head with all its strength, opened its drooped eyelids as hard as possible, and its ferocious face was full of flattery.
To a green-level mutated creature, to the monitor lizard, it is like a high-ranking god, the top of the food chain. Its flesh and blood naturally has unimaginable benefits for it, and can even stimulate evolution and allow it to advance to the next level.
Luo Yuan threw the pile of internal organs at its mouth. Unexpectedly, the giant lizard stretched out its neck with force, bit the food fiercely with its big mouth, and lifted up the pile of forty or fifty pieces of viscera. After swallowing the pound of meat in one gulp, it was impossible to tell that he looked languid and weak before.
But as soon as it finished eating, it returned to its old state, lying lazily on the ground, too lazy to move.
Luo Yuan watched for a while and then quickly went back.
This is not a safe place. Before the end of the world, this place was deep in the mountains and old forests. In terms of danger, places like Jiangnan can only be said to be slightly dangerous, while here it is moderate or even high.
Previously, due to the huge movement of the transport plane, most of the creatures fled here, but as time goes by, more and more creatures will definitely return here.
… … …
A bonfire was burning in the open space not far from the transport plane.
A skinned mutated creature was impaled by a wooden stick and placed on a simple wooden stand. It was allowed to slowly burn on the flames. Golden grease dripped onto the fire and bursts of flames burst out. , making a sizzling sound, and a rich fragrance filled the air.
This was a low-level mutant beast that threw itself into a trap, and was killed by Huo Dong with a single blow.
Of course, if it is a high-level mutated beast, it will be impossible to eat under such barbecue and muscle contraction. The meat is too old, and no one except Luo Yuan can bite it.
More than a dozen people gathered together, speaking one sentence after another, looking at the dark forest nearby from time to time. There were ghostly shadows all around, and the branches seemed to turn into the claws of the ghost, swaying slightly in the firelight, as if they were baring their teeth and claws.
This was the first time for everyone to spend the night in the old forest, and they couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"Let's take stock of how many supplies we have. We may have to stay in the forest for a while." Luo Yuan said calmly.
"It's not much at all, because we are going to the reconstruction area soon, and we have thrown away a lot of things." Huang Jiahui looked away, calmed down, and said with a low face: "For example, towels, tents, etc., they are all gone anyway!"
"The salt was also thrown away!" Cao Lin added carefully.
Luo Yuan's face turned slightly dark. Other things are easy to talk about, but salt is very important. It is almost a matter of life. Moreover, this is an old forest with no trace of human activities. It is extremely difficult to find salt.
"Salt can be solved in a short time by drinking the blood of mutated creatures, and there should be salt here, otherwise the creatures will not be able to survive. We can find rock salt through mutated creatures." Captain Xia poked the fire and put a piece of dead wood , put it in the fire, thought for a while and said.
"The salt has been solved for the time being, and there is also a water source. We must find the location of the water source as soon as possible!" Luo Yuan said: "I decided to stay here for a few days, and then find the direction before we start!"
Of course, you don't need to live for a few days to figure out the direction, but no one objected. Even Captain Xia only moved his lips a few times, looked at the numb soldiers, and fell silent. The loss of the plane made everyone who was full of hope feel like they were falling straight from heaven to hell. The strong contrast made everyone feel dead and lost the motivation to move forward.
At this time, Zhao Yali groaned, slowly opened her eyes, and sat up: "Are we in the reconstruction area? Where is this?"
Luo Yuan's expression froze for a moment and he sighed: "When you evolved into a coma, we crashed. How are you now?"
Zhao Yali was stunned for a moment, and looked around with some disbelief. The cruel reality made her expression quickly turn gloomy, but she had also come from the end of the world, and she had experienced things worse than this one by one, unlike ordinary women. Mentally fragile, she just shook her head with a low expression: "It's okay, my head just hurts a little!"
"Did you just say that I evolved?" She suddenly reacted and said in surprise. In her excitement, her voice suddenly rose several degrees.
At this time, Luo Yuan felt as if some fluctuation swept through his body. He quickly looked into the dark forest and checked carefully, but found nothing. Seeing that Zhao Yali was still looking at him, he nodded.
Zhao Yali looked at the others again, and saw that everyone nodded slightly with complicated expressions. She was convinced. In an instant, a strong surprise poured into her heart, and the darkness and despair in her heart were instantly washed away. Bits and pieces.
When the apocalypse came, her fiancé died unexpectedly, then her parents died, and finally her only supporter, Huang, also died. The pain of losing a loved one has accumulated in her heart again and again. She has not collapsed yet. She has an extremely tough character. No one else can do better than her. This also makes her extremely insecure and her character becomes more and more taciturn. , but the more such a person is, the more powerful he desires in his heart!
With mixed feelings, she suddenly burst into tears.
