Mist

Chapter 29

Views:

Going darker and darker.

Gradually, even the scattered junk parts on the roadside and the vines with fluorescent flowers could not be seen.

Walking in the dark, the two of them could only feel each other's existence through the sleep between their hands and the light fluorescence on the flowers they just picked.

In this seemingly endless darkness, it is easy for people to wonder if I am still alive.

There are no signs in all directions, and there is no trace of other living creatures, as if this is the world with only the two of them left.

After walking for about an hour, I was still in darkness the first second, and the next second I opened my legs, and when I landed, my eyes suddenly opened up.

At this step, he suddenly stepped into another world.

The bright light stimulated the two of them to block their eyes, and when they got used to this brightness, the two of them were startled when they saw the scene in front of them.

They actually stepped into a tropical rain forest.

The smell of green grass, puddles, and soil filled their lungs by surprise, making them fresh and tangy.

Dense vegetation fills the entire field of vision. Trees with a height of tens of meters grow in the lake. The roots of the trees are intricately circling, like a huge network of veins, which can be clearly seen from the water surface. There are no swimming fish and no trace of microorganisms in the water, which is unbelievably clear.

Plants resembling plantains are dotted among them, the thick leaves are moist, and the greenness seems to be dripping. Water plants grow in the center and shore of the lake, thick vines are entwined among the trees, and flowers of various colors can be seen everywhere.

But what is even more speechless is that if you look up along those trees, you will find that they are endlessly tall, because the world above your head is like a reflection, perfectly replicating the ground scene.

There is no sky here.

What they had on their heads was an upside-down rainforest exactly like the ground, equally green and lush.

Monsoon suspects that this is actually some kind of hallucination.

They walked for a while, and when the monsoon rained, he stretched out his hand, but he really touched the leaves of the plant. The touch was slightly cool, and he frowned: "It's all true."

The temperature and humidity here are very high, and the two have taken off their protective clothing and put them away.

Song Qinglan's sensitivity to the environment is far beyond that of ordinary people, but he didn't detect any danger signs here. He stood behind a purple and white flower that could not be named, and the black combat uniform perfectly fitted his body lines. It's like a model in some kind of blockbuster movie: "Consultant Ji, have you noticed that it's too quiet here."

There is no hustle and bustle of the rainforest, no sound of animals and birds, no sound of water and wind.

Apart from the vigorous plants, it seemed that there was not even a single moth.

"It's very strange." Ji Yushi nodded and looked into the distance again, "Team Song, shall we continue to move forward?"

If you don't go forward, you can only go back.

Both of them knew exactly what direction they were coming from.

"If you want to find out what's going on here, I think you can only move forward." Song Qinglan held Shenmian, "What do you think?"

When the season rains, let go of the leaves in your hands: "I think so too."

Song Qinglan reminded: "But if we continue to walk, we may encounter danger. There are only two of us."

Ji Yushi said: "Then we can only go back and be with the beard."

Song Qinglan bent the corners of her lips and used her gun to clear the plant in front of her: "Okay, then let's keep going."

When the monsoon rains, there is no weapon on him, and everything is unknown here.

This time, Song Qinglan naturally walked ahead and opened the way, and Ji Yushi had no objection.

The rainforest was hot and humid, as if it had just rained, with water droplets still hanging from the treetops and grass.

However, after walking for a few minutes, their hair and body were wet. During the rainy season, his complexion is cold and white, and the water droplets slide down his face and neck along the ends of his hair. Against the green backdrop, his eyebrows and eyes are particularly vivid.

Song Qinglan always felt that she was going to get sick again when the monsoon continued like this.

Walking under the dense round-leafed plants, Song Qinglan easily folded off a leaf the size of a water basin, relying on her height: "Take it and block it."

I took it during the monsoon season and held it like an umbrella: "Thank you."

If he could stop him, he teased Song Qinglan: "Song team is so considerate, I almost thought I was a woman."

Song Qinglan had to hold guns in both hands and was also responsible for clearing the way. She really didn't have time to "hold an umbrella" for herself, so she replied casually, "I didn't say that."

They went deep into the rainforest.

The trees here have grown even larger, and many of the trunks are as thick as four or five people encircling them, so the gaps between the trees have also increased. There are many parasitic plants growing on these trees, and they are full of fruit like dragon fruit, but no one dares to try it rashly.

The further you go, the larger the plants in the rainforest become, far beyond the normal range of cognition.

They passed a huge fungal colony.

Various huge mushrooms of light blue, red, white and yellow grow in the rainforest like piles of small houses.

Standing under the umbrella of a mushroom during the monsoon, observing and saying: "These mushrooms should not be of the same species. The largest mushroom I have ever seen is the porcini mushroom with a diameter of about 50 centimeters in the umbrella cover, or the fungus spreads underneath. Up to 2000 acres of Armillaria aurantii. The fungus grows along the roots and secretes digestive enzymes that destroy the roots, but so many mushrooms grow to this extent without affecting the growth of the tree…”

"I didn't expect you to know even mushrooms." Song Qinglan asked, "Consultant Ji, is there anything you don't know?"

The long journey was too boring, and the two continued to walk forward.

Ji Yushi said: "Actually, I just read the materials in the museum."

Song Qinglan asked, "Is there a museum dedicated to mushrooms?"

"It's just one of the popular science exhibition projects." Ji Yushi said, "I was only five years old at the time, and I thought these were very interesting."

People with hyperamnesia rarely find a memorized event interesting. This was the first time Song Qinglan heard a relaxed memory from Ji Yushi's mouth in such a long time.

Song Qinglan turned her head and asked, "From such a young age, you can already remember everything?"

"No, this disease is not born." Ji Yushi told him, "I was a long time later, and one day, I suddenly found that I could remember everything that happened. Including all the experiences I had, and all the I can remember the details clearly, and then I can never forget it again.”

Not born

Song Qinglan guessed that something must have happened in between.

When Ji Yushi said this, he didn't talk about it anymore, and the two were not familiar enough to have a heart-to-heart talk, so the topic ended like this.

They walked over huge fungal colonies.

Then they passed a creek, where they finally found something.

There are some tools, packages thrown here, and a rusted water bottle by the stream, which looks like someone has stopped here.

During the monsoon rains, I opened those packages and found that there were also some daily necessities, including mildewed and rotten batteries, and communicators that had failed in water, all of which could not be used. I also found a compass in the package during the monsoon. In their time, the styles of these things belonged to more than ten years ago, but this compass is well preserved, and the n/s English letters on the dial are still clear. It is a pity that the pointer turns around, and it is completely useless.

"Consultant Ji."

Song Qinglan also noticed something. Standing behind a bush, her expression was not very good. When the monsoon rains, I put the compass away, look behind the bushes, and my expression sinks.

There were three corpses behind the bushes, littered together, most of their bodies covered by the mud that washed ashore from the stream during the heavy rain.

These people seem to have been dead for a long time, except for the hair and still, the body has been boned.

What made them uncomfortable was that the clothes on these corpses were basically intact—high-strength polymer materials that are flame-retardant and moisture-resistant. Exactly the same.

Song Qinglan squatted down and wiped the dirt from the corpse's body with her hand, and the number on the guardian's chest was revealed: 12.

These three corpses are all guardians from the sky.

"Fifteen years ago, a team of guardians numbered 12 in the sky accepted an S-rank mission." Song Qinglan said, "But from the 180th second after they set off, all eight of them lost contact. After that For several years, I haven't heard from them again, and the Vault of Heaven system has checked various time and space many times, but they haven't found any trace of them."

When the monsoon rains: "This is them?"

"It should be." Song Qinglan frowned, "I heard about this case when I first joined the guardian team. According to the analysis of the experts, they were lost in a certain time and space and hid."

Whether it is a guardian or a recorder, the requirements for personnel selection are very high.

Not only are they required to have sufficient ability, but they are also required to have a strong and firm psychological defense line. After all, human beings have weaknesses. Just imagine, those who return to the past are equivalent to having the ability to predict, while those who go to the future may have a new life... Since the establishment of the Vault of Heaven, because of various human selfish desires, it is not that it has not happened that someone has been lost. In time and space and do not want to go back to the original time and space.

At this time, the sky will send another team to set out to correct the mistakes. They are called inspectors. Once they set off, they will thoroughly clean up those deserters and capture them back to their original era for execution.

And fifteen years ago, the Vault of Twelve Team was the only team that was not caught by the inspectors.

Song Qinglan: "Everyone thinks that they are deserters in time and space for their own selfish desires. I didn't expect them to be here."

Time and space deserters.

Ji Yushi stared at the three corpses, wondering what he was thinking.

This matter is a secret inside the sky, and only the team captains know it.

Song Qinglan then added: "You may not have heard of this... hess, I've been in a panic for them. It seems as we thought, there is indeed some strange magnetic field, which will cause the traversers on the way to jump. Suck it up."

"If we can't go back, we'll be treated as deserters," Ji Yushi said.

Song Qinglan was noncommittal.

Ji Yushi was right, except that they were hijacked to the transfer station by the so-called "Sky Self-consciousness", their current situation is very similar to the Sky Twelve Team. If they can't go back, for the third command center, the Vault 7 team, which lost contact after departure, also became a deserter in time and space.

But Song Qinglan was not a pessimistic person, neither was Team Sky Seven, they would not succumb to the current predicament.

"What was the cause of death?" Ji Yushi asked, "Can you tell?"

"There are no injuries on the bones..." Song Qinglan looked over at the corpse, "The clothes are not damaged, it doesn't look like they died from external forces. If it was because of hunger, they wouldn't all die in the same place. Judging from their posture, it might be poisoning."

Both of them remembered the dragon fruit-like fruit and those big mushrooms they had just seen.

After burying these seniors, the two continued to walk forward.

This time, they went a long way.

The time in this rainforest seems to be still, just like where they came from, day and night, making it difficult for people to feel the passage of time.

However, the energy consumption of the human body is not static, and soon they feel hungry and fatigued.

They moved forward along the creek, entered deeper into the rainforest, and saw huge mushrooms and sturdy trees.

With the lessons learned, in the case of extreme hunger, they passed through those brightly colored fruits, but still held back their strong desire to try.

Passing a round-leafed plant, he stopped during the rainy season: "Song team."

One of the round-leafed plants had a broken mark, and the milky white liquid was still dripping from the break. It was the leaf that Song Qinglan had broken before.

Song Qinglan also recognized it: "Fuck. Are we going in circles?"

In fact, Ji Yushi has been thinking about this problem all the way. He pursed his lips, but still said his inner thoughts: "I don't think there should be."

Song Qinglan didn't think so either. He and Ji Yushi had a good sense of direction and wouldn't take a detour, but it was too weird.

It's almost like a ghost hitting a wall.

After thinking for two or three seconds, Song Qinglan made a decision: "I want to know if it's easy, we have to keep going."

Then, as suddenly as it came.

They took steps in the process of walking. One second they were in the rainforest, and the next second they stepped into nothingness.

The surroundings became dark again.

The temperature dropped, and the wetness from the rain forest still remained on the two of them. Even if they put on the protective clothing that they were not willing to throw away along the way, they did not warm up, so they had to bite the bullet and move on.

Teeth quivering from the cold during the monsoon rains.

Without the fluorescent flower lighting this time, he had to hold the sleepy head in the cold, trying to speed up his pace.

Song Qinglan looked back at him several times, but said nothing.

The aurora in the sky flashed.

In the silence, they all stopped.

What appeared in front of them was another mountain of garbage.

No, this is the mountain of garbage they walked past.

Moving forward, when their hands and feet were freezing, they saw the familiar space capsule.

Song Qinglan pushed open the door and the two walked in.

The bearded man was sitting on the small sofa, using a towel to cover his nose that was beaten by Song Qinglan and was still bleeding.

Seeing the two of them come in, the bearded man immediately bounced off the sofa in anger: "Amphra Hagen and!!"

Song Qinglan sneered, raised Shenmian to face the beard, and imitated his pronunciation and said, "Amphra Hagenhe."

He didn't understand what it meant, but he knew it wasn't a good thing to say.

Bearded was stunned.

I don't know if it was because Song Qinglan said these words, or because he was afraid of the muzzle, the 2-meter-long idiot was in a daze while performing on the spot.

When the monsoon rains, the cold is so cold that the lips are white: "..."

It was much warmer in the capsule, he took off his protective suit and threw it away, then walked over to the beard's pile of junk.

Beard came back to his senses, for fear of taking away his things during the monsoon, he was so anxious that he screamed.

During the monsoon season, he picked up an iron retro alarm clock and said, "Team Song, it's only been less than two hours since we got out of the space capsule."

The author has something to say: This copy is quite fun, so no spoilers for now.

I would like to recommend my wife Tangyuan's sweet article, "After I read the book, I have a family of cannon fodder [Entertainment Circle]" is already very fat! Go kill it!

Copy:

Qi Xingchen wears a book, and wears it as a cannon fodder villain in the entertainment circle.

The name only appeared on the tombstone once, and was finally killed by the male protagonist.

In this regard, Qi Xingchen said that good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil. He just wants to finish the plot line alive so that he can return to the real world.

However, when he learned about his family's painting style↓↓↓

Cannon Fodder Dad: Dad bought you a private jet, right on the tarmac next to our mine, enough for you to play for half a month, right

Cannon fodder brother: Hollywood co-production movie and the most popular IP drama of the year, you choose one of these two resources.

Cannon fodder brother: (presses the paparazzi's head into the muddy water) Oh, dare to take pictures of my brother secretly, I will show you the sun at three in the morning in the crematorium!

Cannon fodder is small: Has the graduation design of Xingxing been ridiculed by the whole network? Teaching assistant, send some of my patents to him to play with.

So, Qi Xingchen, who has never been spoiled, waved his hand with tears in his eyes: Isn't that just killing a top-traffic male protagonist? Don't kill yourself, let me come!

Burning text

Later, the male protagonist was tying his buttons condescendingly, while looking at Qi Xingchen, whose face was flushed and his toes curled up: "I'm not full, or pretend to be dead, eh?"

(To be so spoiled that I think I can) The rhythm is attacked by x top traffic tycoons
