"There should be food on the island." Liu Chang moved his nose and sniffed the air again, smelling the smell of animals and fish here.
"Well, let's go in and have a look, anyway, I don't want to sleep on the ice." Tai Xieer stepped onto the shore while talking, his huge body made him have nowhere to set foot in the dense jungle on the island, and he stepped on it immediately Several low shrubs were broken.
"Is the jungle on the island generally dangerous?" Whether in the water or on the shore, as a human being who has survived for several years in the apocalypse, Liu Chang always pays attention to safety issues when he arrives in a strange place.
"Anyway, it's not safe. There are many islands that grow strange things, and some giant beasts like to occupy an island as their territory—especially the amphibian giant beasts, which spend most of their time underwater , when they occasionally go ashore, they hope to dominate an area." Tai Xieer looked around, "But there doesn't seem to be any giant beasts here, and you can see that the small trees on the ground have no signs of being destroyed. , there are no trampling footprints, no stretching trails of snakes, I dare not say anything else here, at least there are no giant beasts."
"I also hope that there will be no strange and dangerous things." Liu Chang said, and entered the jungle.
Night also came fully as he entered the island.
After the red fog, especially after the dead night, the time of dusk is always very short. Probably because of the cover of the clouds, the time from the beginning of the sun setting to the complete setting is greatly shortened. When people feel that the sky is beginning to darken, it is actually not too far away from the night.
So when Liu Chang entered the center of the island, the sky had already completely darkened—and then, he saw a beautiful scene that he had never seen in his life.
"What a beautiful tree!" Standing on a small hill in the center of the island, Liu Chang saw a basin surrounded by three small volcanoes, covered with beautiful trees similar to coral reefs. After the night fell, these beautiful trees The extreme things emitted red crystal-like light one by one, the brightness of the light was comparable to the searchlights of the airport, and the trees illuminated the entire small basin surrounded by three mountains like a world in flames.
"This thing won't be dangerous, right?" Tai Xieer is obviously also a careful person. Standing on the three heads, he looked at the fiery red trees, and at the white hot spring lake under the volcano. , with a vigilant look on his face.
"I don't know if it's dangerous, but..." When he saw this tree, Liu Chang felt that his source of consciousness, which hadn't trembled for a long time, felt a slight fluctuation when he saw these trees.
so-
"Whether it's dangerous or not, I want to go down and have a look." After Liu Chang said a word, he slid down the slope and came to the basin surrounded by three mountains.
When I came to the tree and looked at the tree, it was naturally no more hazy than the foggy eyes seen a hundred meters away. The veins of the branches on the tree were clearly visible, like blood vessels extending upward under the crystal-like fiery red and transparent tree. Putting his hand on the tree trunk, Liu Changshun closed his eyes according to his own feeling, as if seeing the scene he saw after the wireworm entered his body again.
I stood in front of a huge white ball of light, a thin line that was barely visible was connected above the ball of light, and then spread to the endless sky.
"What is behind the thin line?" Standing in front of the red tree, Liu Chang thought of this question for the first time, and then the red tree trunk seemed to guide his consciousness, this thought, and let him see a bright world...
a long time…
There was a "plop" in the water, which interrupted Liu Chang's thinking. A fish-like bird leaped out of the hot spring lake. After a wave of heat in the air, it finally perched on a tree. Above the red crystal tree.
Then Liu Chang opened his eyes and saw Tai Xieer running down from the top of the mountain like thunder.
"How long has it been?" Liu Chang asked when he looked up and saw that Tai Xie'er had just arrived.
"How long?" Seeing the confusion in Liu Chang's eyes, Tai Xie'er's face showed even greater confusion, "How long, I saw you coming down just now, so I followed, and then this bird passed by, and it was not afraid. Let's, I was just wondering if we should have it for dinner."
"Did it only pass for a moment?" Liu Chang's eyes showed the exhaustion that seemed to be closed for many days, and then turned his head to look at the fish-like bird.
This thing is three to four meters long, not very big, and there is nothing unusual about its body except that it is flaming red - it looks a bit like a pterosaur, but more like a flying fish - its fins turned into wings, its body It is smooth and seems to be able to fly in the sky, but more often it lives underwater.
"Do you want to eat?" Tai Xieer saw Liu Chang staring at the birds and fish, Tai Xieer lowered his voice, "This thing seems to live here by itself, and it is not afraid of alien species. It stands to reason that I am so big that ordinary creatures You should have already run away in a panic, do you want to eat?"
"Forget it." Liu Chang glanced at the fiery red eyes staring at his immobile bird and fish, shook his head, and gave up the idea of feasting on him.
The careless Tai Xieer didn't notice Liu Chang's abnormality, and regardless of Liu Chang's eyes fixed on the bird, he stepped to the huge hot spring lake with a step of tens of meters, and said: "This small island is not big, but this lake is not small. There should be volcanic lava under the hot spring, and I don’t know how many degrees it is.”
While talking to himself, Tai Xieer stuck his huge claws with thick scales into the water, and then—
"Aw!" From the quiet island, there was a loud beast roar that sounded like thunder: "Ah, why is this thing so hot?"
While Tai Xieer yelled this, he swung its crimson scaled claws like boiled shrimp, and jumped on the spot.
"Is it so hot?" Liu Chang had an incredulous expression on his face—Tai Xie'er's scales are thick and hard, and ordinary bullets and shells can't penetrate them, and even if the water is boiled to a boil, it is 100 degrees, it shouldn't happen anyway Burned Tai Xieer until he grinned.
"Is it really that hot?" Liu Chang saw that Tai Xie'er's expression did not seem to be fake, and even if the expression was fake, the red-burned scales would definitely not be fake.
"It's very hot, hotter than flames!" Tai Xieer yelled, "This thing isn't water at all, it's magma that looks like water. It's scalding me to death, and my claws are almost ripe!"
"Really?" Based on Tai Xie'er's reaction, Liu Chang carefully observed the strange lake again, only to find that the air above the lake is actually distorted—just like the air above the flame, it is distorted by high temperature Turning, and wanting to cause the air to twist, it is impossible to achieve without a few hundred degrees.
