Luo Yuan sat in silence for more than an hour. The sky gradually became brighter and everyone began to get up one after another.
After everyone finished washing, Luo Yuan waved: "Everyone, come here."
Everyone was stunned and walked away quickly.
"Boss Luo, what's going on?" Huo Dong asked.
Luo Yuan was silent for a while and said, "Let's discuss when to leave here?"
"Where are you going? Are you talking about the reconstruction area?" Captain Xia asked quickly.
Seeing Luo Yuan nodding, his breathing became quickened. Among these people, his attitude was probably the most resolute. Unlike the others, who had enough to eat for the whole family, her wife and daughter were all in the reconstruction area. Since he disappeared for such a long time, I'm afraid a death notice has been delivered to his home. He doesn't know how sad and hesitant his wife will be. Every time he thinks about it, he feels a little restless.
"When will we set off?" Huang Jiahui asked.
Luo Yuan continued: "The situation here has become increasingly dangerous. My plan is to leave here as soon as possible."
"Boss Luo, you can decide this kind of thing. We all listen to you." Huo Dong immediately expressed his position. He had already seen clearly. He was willing to stay here and did not want to take risks. However, what Luo Yuan decided, It's useless to object.
Seeing Luo Yuan glance at him, the others quickly nodded in agreement.
"In that case, let's leave today!" Luo Yuan said decisively.
… … … …
There are very few things to bring, basically just necessities.
In addition to several leather bags of water and dozens of kilograms of salt, the rest is some high-grade bacon for emergencies. As for the other pots and pans, they were all discarded here. These things are basically made of wood and stone. They can be made on the spot no matter where they stay, and they don’t feel bad if they are lost.
By seven o'clock everything was ready.
Everyone climbed onto the giant lizard and started to set off.
The sky was full of flying insects, but as soon as they got closer to forty or fifty meters, they fell like dust one after another. There was a faint momentum in the air. Of course, Luo Yuan did not use all his strength, and the momentum he exuded was even ten times. One part is not much, but it is enough to deal with these low-level bugs.
But even so, everyone's hearts were heavy along the way, their faces turned pale, and they were breathless.
The thorns and lush grass on the road were crushed into pieces by the huge paws of the monitor lizard. The grotto slowly moved away, and soon it was no longer visible. As the road became more and more unfamiliar, many people couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder. A touch of melancholy and worry about the future.
The sun's rays shine through the dense woods, leaving dappled and sparse shadows. After the hot light is weakened layer by layer, it looks a bit shady, but such a comfortable situation only lasts for an hour or two in the early morning.
By noon, even under the shade of trees, the temperature suddenly rose by more than ten or twenty degrees. Even the slight breeze was so hot that basically there was no time to stop sweating. Except for Luo Yuan, everyone basically drinks water every hour to replenish their body's moisture.
The giant ape that is familiar to everyone will naturally not follow behind it. As an ape-like creature, the woods are its natural home. Its huge body keeps jumping from one tree to another. Above, the wind was gusting with astonishing momentum. If most of the trees here weren't huge and strong, they wouldn't be able to withstand the torment of it.
It stopped from time to time, waiting for everyone, and then started jumping again. The "ape" had a great time playing.
"Donkey Kong, get some fruits." At this time, Master Wang suddenly said loudly, pointed to his mouth, and made a biting motion with his mouth.
The giant ape winked at Master Wang, as if he understood, scratched his scalp, and jumped to the big tree on the left with a "bang" sound. After several consecutive jumps, he disappeared without a trace.
"Can King Kong understand it?" Luo Yuan asked. Since bringing King Kong here, he has basically ignored it. However, he often gets along with Wang Shishi Huo Dong and others, and the relationship is good.
"I don't know, but it seems to be able to understand simple words." Master Wang said with some uncertainty.
"Boss Luo, don't underestimate this ape. It's as smart as a human. All you need to do is teach it once." Huo Dong said with a smile.
"Indeed, this is the smartest mutant beast I have ever encountered. It is not even comparable to the war beast dogs in the army. Of course, except for those giants." Captain Xia also said seriously.
After more than ten minutes, Luo Yuan heard slight movement.
"It's back." Luo Yuan said at this time, feeling a little hopeful in his heart.
After a while, everyone also heard the sound.
There was a violent commotion in the jungle, accompanied by a loud "bang bang bang" sound, from far to near. Soon, the giant ape appeared on the tree near everyone. It held a large handful of fruits in its hand and relaxed its arms. , a large amount of fruit fell from the sky.
Before they hit the ground, a wave of telepathy instantly enveloped the fruits and suspended them in the air. Then, they were rolled up onto the back of the giant lizard and piled up into a small mountain.
Each of these fruits is the size of a bowl, covered with a thick dark red hard shell, and is similar to an oleander, but much larger and extremely heavy, weighing an average of two kilograms.
"Can this thing be eaten?" Huang Jiahui asked Luo Yuan with a happy face.
Luo Yuan used an appraisal technique: "It's edible."
The crust on the surface was very hard, and Luo Yuan used five minutes of strength to break it open. Inside was a pool of pink, semi-jelly-like liquid, with a sweet smell that filled the air, making people loosen their Adam's apple and make their mouth ache. ***He drank up the juice in one gulp.
The taste is sweet and sour, with a hint of mint-like coolness, which is particularly refreshing in this sultry climate.
The others were obviously not as strong as Luo Yuan, so they had to use the knife they carried with them to cut them open. With a slight cut of the blade, the whole thing was cut into two halves. These knives had been synthesized by Luo Yuan, and the materials were the monsters that had died before. Bird bones, each knife has a light green grade.
As his strength increased, he no longer concealed his abilities in front of a few soldiers. Moreover, so many synthetic things were always dazzling in front of his eyes. Leak, with his current strength and the huge value of the synthesis technique, he will only win over others, not become enemies.
Just like a child holding gold in the city, of course he won't live long, but if he is replaced by a strong man, the risk will be reduced. If the strong man has a watermelon knife on his waist, there is basically no danger.
"It's so delicious." Wang Shishi exclaimed, and then immediately cut into a second one. In the apocalypse, fruits are scarce, and the jungle is full of dangers. Normally, he would not deliberately look for them. He would just try his luck to find an edible one on the road. Yes, the chance is really pitiful. Even Luo Yuan couldn't help but eat several of them. He didn't stop until his stomach was full.
"It's time to eat fruit." Huang Jiahui looked at Chen Jiayi, who had been in a daze, and couldn't help but pull her.
Chen Jiayi suddenly came back to her senses, with a confused look on her face. She lowered her head and looked at the fruit. After a long time, she finally realized: "Oh, thank you Sister Huang, I'm not thirsty yet!"
"You don't like eating fruit?" Huang Jiahui asked.
"Well, I don't know. I don't seem to like eating very much now." As long as someone interferes, Chen Jiayi quickly becomes a normal person, thinks about it and says immediately.
Huang Jiahui couldn't help but sigh. Since being parasitized by moss, she has become more and more like a plant. Not only does she stand still in the sun at every turn, but she also eats less and less. In many cases, she eats for several consecutive days. She doesn't eat for days, and only those high-energy foods will give her a slight appetite. She doesn't know whether this change is good or bad.
