Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 460: The vines are all in a mess! (5400 words)

Views:

In this case, the next goal is to go to the side where the flare is lit.

His current position is to the northeast of the vine bundle, and the direction where the flare is raised is to the northwest of the main vine bundle.

Over there, it seems...

Wang Lei, the direction that Wang Lei is responsible for.

Xu Xin thought about it and turned the bracelet.

Immediately, Xue Lan, who was sitting on the ground in a leisurely posture and chatting with Lou Feier in the bracelet, was released.

"Ah, have we reached the ground?" Xue Lan was stunned, then stood up.

Xu Xin was observing his surroundings.

Xue Lan's appearance attracted the attention of the surrounding giant beasts and insects.

but…

It just attracted some attention.

Because these giant insects and beasts just took a look and then shifted their gaze and went about their own business.

"Well... looks familiar..."

"Who... Never mind..."

"Stone statue..."

"A stone creature... came out of the ground? It doesn't look very strong? Hmm... never mind."

The above words are what Xu Xin heard from the giant insects and beasts around him at this moment.

Among them, there was one sentence that was spoken softly but was exceptionally clear.

Xu Xin glanced at the giant ostrich-like beast that was only about two hundred meters away.

It seems, is it

Behemoths, do you know the stone creatures

“…嘤?” Coco looked around in confusion and scratched her head with her little paw.

It seemed to have discovered something, but was not sure.

Finally, he shook his little head, didn't want to think anymore, lay on Xu Xin's shoulder, and began to doze off.

"Huh? I seem to have attracted the surrounding creatures for a moment, but... now they are not interested in me again?" Xue Lan also noticed the abnormality around her and said in a somewhat strange voice.

Xu Xin nodded: "That's true. It seems that you don't have to enter the bracelet. What are you going to do?"

"Well... I'd better get into the bracelet." Xue Lan hesitated for a moment, then said, "At that moment, they all looked at me, and I seemed to sense hostility at that moment. Their attitude towards me was not friendly. If I stay outside, it will easily cause trouble for you."

"Besides, Lou Feier and I haven't finished our conversation yet." She said with a smile.

"Okay." Xu Xin nodded, "Then you should enter the bracelet. Well, I'll take you to the vine bundle in the center first."

He pointed to the vines in the distance and said, "Changyin is nearby. I'll take you to see him first."

Although he was going to the northwest to help Wang Lei, there was nothing wrong with taking a detour back to the center.

When Xue Lan heard this, her eyes lit up instantly, and she nodded and said, "Okay!"

After putting her back into the bracelet, Xu Xin took Coco, who had fallen asleep on his shoulder and was about to fall, into his arms.

I patted its little head and started moving towards the main vine in the center.

At this moment, the inner thoughts of the surrounding underground creatures continued to flow into his mind.

Most of these ideas are very ordinary, just eating, sleeping, walking, reproducing, etc.

The thinking of those giant beasts is already very perfect.

It can be said that the IQ of the behemoth may be almost the same as that of an adult human.

"Human? Is it a human? I haven't seen a human in a long time..."

Xu Xin even heard the inner monologue of a giant beast, which was obviously curious about Xu Xin.

but…

Do these giant beasts that have been living deep underground know about the existence of humans

Well... it's possible that they were the first group of giant beasts that survived. They were dropped from the ground, so it's normal for them to have seen humans.

Fortunately, the giant beast was simply curious about Xu Xin and had no intention of doing anything to him.

Xu Xin took a run and jumped, crossed the Chishui River again, and landed on the other side of the river with a "plop".

Unfolding the vines, he quickened his pace.

I don’t know if anyone other than Wang Lei has returned to the main vine bundle so that they can go together.

Huh

etc…

What they had discussed before was that if Xiao Hong was discovered and Xiao Hong would attract the surrounding giant beasts, they would send a flare to let Xu Xin go over, put Xiao Hong into the bracelet and bring him back.

But now it seems...

Although Xue Lan attracted the attention of the people around her the moment she came out, she was not attacked by everyone.

Logically speaking, Xiaohong should be the same.

So what was the purpose of the flare that Wang Lei fired

Is there another reason

Is he in danger

Xu Xin immediately got this message in his mind.

Very likely!

It seems that I need to go over and help quickly!

Xu Xin stopped running, but pushed his feet hard and began to jump in the underground world overgrown with vines!

With one leap, the distance is dozens of meters!

However, one disadvantage of such jumping is that it will attract the attention of flying insects of all sizes from surrounding cars!

After only four or five leaps, seven or eight giant flying insects followed behind him!

The tails of these flying insects emit a slightly dazzling bright yellow light, as if they were giant fireflies.

They were very interested in things that moved quickly in the air, and were attracted by Xu Xin's movements, so they all came over in droves.

"Without wings... why can you fly?"

"What…thing?"

"Let's go and see..."

Fortunately, judging from the results of mind reading, these giant flying insects did not have any hostility towards him, they were simply curious.

Therefore, this time he was very calm.

Even after a dozen jumps, with dozens of giant flying insects following him like an army chasing him madly, he did not feel afraid.

Sure enough, soon the curiosity of the first few flying insects that followed him was almost worn out, and they stopped following him. The number of giant flying insects behind him remained at a dozen.

However, such a conspicuous group of giant insects naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding giant beasts.

About one kilometer away from the main vine, he no longer leaped forward, but landed directly and stayed there motionless.

A group of giant flying insects following behind him began to fly around him in a chaotic manner.

The invisible cloak begins to work.

"Where did it go..."

"Why did it suddenly disappear...?"

The flying insects, having lost their target, flew aimlessly in the air for a few dozen seconds before returning the same way they came.

Looking at the flying insects flying away, Xu Xin's lips curled up slightly into a smile.

Mind reading is really good.

If he hadn't read his mind, he wouldn't have dared to run for nearly ten kilometers with a group of flying insects the size of a vehicle behind him. He would definitely have walked over carefully like before.

Now he feels that this underground world, which was once full of dangers, has become a back garden.

The unknown is the most terrifying thing. Once you know the mental activities of the beasts around you...

Honestly, they're pretty cute.

However, these giant beasts near the main vine bundle are not cute at all.

Xu Xin's expression turned serious.

He chose to stop here because he couldn't continue walking along the road ahead with those flying insects.

Because the giant beasts in this area...

Basically crazy.

These giant beasts are still fighting each other.

He saw that the tiger covered in scales was still fighting with another giant bull beast five hundred meters away from the main vine bundle.

“Kill! Kill!”

"die!"

Near the main vine bundle, the crazy yet simple thoughts of the giant beasts kept flooding into his mind.

This made sweat break out on his forehead.

Well, there are some downsides to mind reading.

It is a dangerous place that makes people feel more nervous and fearful.

The murderous intent that filled his head almost chilled him to the bone.

"Go carefully." Xu Xin took a deep breath and then rubbed Coco's head hard with his hand.

"Hmm?" Coco was rubbed.

"Coco, help me watch out for the dangers around me."

“…嘤!”

Fortunately, this time, just like when he came out of the main vines before, he was not noticed by the surrounding beasts.

He quickly slipped in from the gap between their fights.

Behind him, the battle between the giant scale-armored tiger and the wild bull had been accepted.

The two giant beasts were once again both injured, each dragging their severely injured bodies away from each other.

"Kill it... Let me kill it!"

“Ahhh I’m going to kill that cow!

But what the two beasts were thinking was completely inconsistent with their actions.

Every two steps they took, they would look back at each other.

Originally, in Xu Xin's eyes, this was an act of alerting the other party to attack again, but it suddenly became different.

This clearly meant that he wanted to turn around and continue fighting with the other party, but...

But can only stay away

Xu Xin's eyes became serious.

He read very important information from the inner thoughts of these giant beasts.

First of all, the giant beasts around the main vine are indeed crazy.

The behemoths far away from the main vine area have very clear thinking, almost the same as that of humans.

The most obvious one is the giant python that awakened his mind-reading ability.

If he only listened to its new life without looking at its outside, he would really think that this would be the voice of a woman.

The behemoths here...

My mind is completely confused and irritable!

Apart from the intention to kill, they don't seem to think about anything else. They just want to keep killing!

This is the thought even when they move away because both sides are hurt!

That is, they are now...

It's being controlled by a force!

This power drives them crazy and makes them fight with the giant beasts around them, but at the same time, when they are seriously injured, it will distance them from the enemy and let them heal in peace!

this…

Xu Xin took a look at the main vine bundle.

Is it the power of this vine bundle

Or...

The Bloodline Clan, actually...

Have you been controlling this place all along

That's not right...

Aren’t the Blood Mark Clan unable to control the giant beasts

"Xu Xin!"

His mind was still a little confused when a voice came out from the main vine bundle.

Changyin walked out and ran towards him.

At the same time, he was making gestures to Xu Xin.

So that means... keep him away from the main vine bundle

Xu Xin stood at the outermost edge of the protection range of the main vine bundle waiting for Chang Yin.

He looked at Chang Yin, actively trying to read his new life.

But like Xue Lan, it did not succeed.

Soon, Changyin ran to his side.

His expression was filled with anticipation and worry: "Um...how are you doing?"

His eyes kept drifting towards Xu Xin's bracelet.

Xu Xin turned the bracelet and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I brought it back."

He didn't say Xue Lan's name.

He knew some things were better left unsaid here.

Changyin also said that this place is likely to be under surveillance.

The inner thoughts of those giant beasts just now also sounded a wake-up call for him.

This area is indeed affected by a mysterious force.

It would be better not to plot here.

"Really?!" Chang Yin immediately showed an ecstatic expression, his voice instantly rose, and then he immediately covered his mouth, but his eyes were still flashing red.

He calmed himself down and then stomped his feet on the spot.

Suddenly, the ground began to tremble, and a square stone the size of a room slowly rose in front of Xu Xin.

Just like before, Changyin reached out and slapped the stone, and a door immediately cracked out on the surface of the stone.

…The location here doesn’t seem to be the same as last time

Wow! How many holes did Changyin dig under the main vine bundle

Chang Yin pushed open the door and nodded at Xu Xin.

"嘤!" Coco jumped out of his arms and ran straight inside.

Judging from its appearance, it seemed that it felt more at ease inside the stone gate than here.

After entering, the situation was basically the same as last time. Chang Yin took Xu Xin to the small room at the bottom and immediately turned his head to look at him.

"Xu Xin, Xue Lan..."

Without him saying anything, Xu Xin turned the bracelet and released Xue Lan.

"Chang Yin!" Xue Lan saw Chang Yin as soon as she came out and immediately rushed over.

The two stone statues collided and embraced each other, making a collision sound.

"I... I thought you..." She was already sobbing.

"You two, although it's not nice to disturb your reunion, I still have to say that I have to go." Xu Xin said.

"Ah, yes! One of your companions sent out a signal flare!" Chang Yin immediately separated from Xue Lan, and then his eyes flashed red, "Could it be Xiao Hong?"

"Xiao Hong?!" Xue Lan screamed in shock and immediately asked excitedly, "You, have you found Xiao Hong too?"

"Not necessarily." Xu Xin shook his head and expressed his guess.

Chang Yin also calmed down and nodded with a serious expression: "What you said makes sense. Since your companions are in danger, you should go over and take a look."

"That could be Xiaohong, right?" Xue Lan asked anxiously, "Take us with you."

"No." Xu Xin and Chang Yin refused together.

"I can't stay away from here, otherwise... it will be useless for you to go there. Leave this matter to brother Xu Xin and his companions. They are much more reliable survivors here than the two of us." Chang Yin said.

"I... okay." Xue Lan nodded, but there was still a look of deep worry on her face.

In the bracelet, she had heard Lou Feier's stories about Xiao Hong, and she also knew that Xiao Hong's current situation was unclear.

"Leave it to me, rest assured. If Xiaohong is really over there, I will bring him back." Xu Xin said.

"I leave it to you, Brother Xu Xin!" Chang Yin held Xu Xin's hand tightly.

"Well, I'm leaving."

Xu Xin brought Coco out of the underground secret room.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, the ground began to shake slightly again.

Looking back, I saw the big square rock was slowly sinking into the ground again.

The door is actually hidden, which is really secretive.

Xu Xin thought about it, turned the bracelet, and released Lou Feier.

He planned to let Lou Feier wait here. Maybe other people would come back here after he left and need someone to pick them up.

Lou Feier was sitting on the ground at this time, and it seemed that she was leaning against something. As soon as she came out, she immediately fell backwards.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and turned over and stood up.

"Huh? Have we returned to the main vine?" She looked around, a little surprised. "That happened so fast! It's only been... more than two hours? Wait, where are those branch vines? Why... Ah! There!"

Before Xu Xin could say anything, she pointed in the direction of the last remaining vine bundle and screamed.

Xu Xin turned around and looked.

At this moment, the only remaining vine bundle was pulled out of the ground!

Wen Guixin successfully opened the second branch prison!

"This... this vine bundle has been retracted!" Lou Feier said in surprise.

The bundle of vines quickly retracted upwards, and in less than ten seconds, it was completely retracted into the gap directly above their heads.

And at this moment, the brightness of the light released from the gap suddenly increased significantly, even making Xu Xin and Lou Feier, who were looking up at the gap, cover their eyes as if they were hit by a flash bomb!

"It's so bright!" Lou Feier couldn't see anything in an instant, and she stretched out her hands to grab Xu Xin's arm.

"Hmm!" Even Coco closed her eyes immediately and buried her head in Xu Xin's arms.

I was blind for about three or four seconds, and everything was white in front of my eyes.

"Don't panic, there is no danger around." Xu Xin said calmly.

His amplified hearing and mind-reading ability allow him to perfectly grasp the movements of the giant beasts around him.

They were also shaken!

Gradually, he was able to see again and his vision returned to normal.

Rubbing his eyes, he looked around.

Now, in the entire underground world, there is only this thick main vine bundle left, connecting the ground and the sky of the underground world.

This bundle of vines seems to support the entire underground world!

But Xu Xin showed an ugly expression.

because…

The area around the main vine is now brighter than the daytime at noon!

So bright!

They now seemed to be directly exposed to a high-power searchlight and still could not open their eyes.

The giant beasts around became even crazier!

“Kill! Kill!”

“Die!”

The roars of the beasts and their voices filled his ears madly.

All around, the giant beasts were not just fighting in pairs, they were already in a complete melee!

And Xu Xin discovered that in the distance, those giant beasts that were not originally crazy had actually started fighting at this time!

The scope of the behemoth's chaos has expanded!

It turns out that it was the bright white light coming from the gap that caused it!

The behemoths that are close to the main vine bundle will go crazy because they are more affected by the light!

Wait a moment…

Isn't that bright white light the color of the tree house core and energy core fragments

And these giant beasts happen to be of the same bloodline as the giants...

Could it be that... the bright white light in the gap is related to the giant? !

Is it the power of giants

Or...

The Blood Mark Clan controlled the power of the giants? !

What on earth is going on!

Fortunately, the protective area around the vine bundle still exists. At least the giant beasts still dare not enter this area to attack them.

Xu Xin looked into the distance with an ugly expression.

If originally only the behemoths within a one-kilometer range were in a state of chaos, now this range has at least expanded several times.

The danger zone... just got bigger!

And the behemoths have become even more dangerous!

"Are these giant beasts... crazy?" Lou Feier said in horror.

Xu Xin looked very unhappy.

The behemoth has now begun to attack indiscriminately!

Even bugs are not spared!

He is now basically certain that even if he is alone, as long as he steps out of this safe area, these giant beasts will still attack him!

But now, except for him and Lou Feier who was with him, the other four have not returned yet!

Who knows, some of them might be in this chaotic area right now!

And Xu Xin himself still wants to go out!

Damn it!

What a mess!
