Because of the humidity, the bark of this giant tree and the surrounding vines were covered with moss. Coupled with the great physical exertion, it was not easy to climb this tree.
When Liu Gan was sitting and resting, Han Guangming and others went over to try it first, but no one could climb up. This kind of climbing is many times more difficult than ordinary climbing. Without rich climbing experience and comprehensive strengthening of physical fitness, it is indeed not easy to climb the tree in front of you.
Others can't climb up, but now you can only find the way out by climbing to a high enough height, so no matter how difficult it is, Liu Gan must climb up himself.
Liu Gan used to be an expert rock climber, but this kind of climbing is completely different from his previous climbing. This is not the kind of rock wall where you can find a support point. In addition to being smooth, the branches and vines may break at any time under the pull of his body's excessive weight.
Although with Liu Qian's current physical fitness, falling from a height of more than ten meters may not be a big problem, but if he were taller, his body might not be able to withstand such a huge fall. The impact was strong, and the tree was more than a hundred meters high.
Under the gaze of everyone, Liu Gan quickly climbed to a height of more than 20 meters and almost disappeared from everyone's sight. Some non-mutated monkeys were originally jumping above Liu Gan's head, but now they all appeared under his feet.
Just as Liu Gan was sitting on a branch panting, a mutated monkey appeared on a branch not far away. After howling at Liu Gan a few times, it climbed the branches with both hands and rushed toward Liu Gan at lightning speed. Come, a pair of sharp claws seem to want to tear the willow stem into pieces.
Liu Gan also clung to the branches below him like a monkey and swung in a large circle, avoiding the attack of the mutant monkey. After swinging back, he supported the branches with both hands and swept the mutant monkey with his iron legs. Kicked away from the branch.
The mutated monkey let out a scream and was kicked away to an unknown location. Anyway, it did not come back to cause trouble for Liu Gan. It’s just that the tree root under Liu Gan’s body became stronger after Liu Gan’s torment. But it broke apart with a click.
Liu Qian quickly grabbed two nearby vines to stabilize his body, otherwise he would fall directly from here. If he didn't fall to death, he would be seriously injured.
After finding a place to rest for a while, Liu Gan continued to climb up. While climbing, he carefully observed and listened to the surrounding situation. The trees on the top of the mountain all grew thin and long, and they tried every means to stretch their crowns upward to reach the sunlight above their heads.
Sunlight is too precious for these trees in the trembling world. Even in the jungle that can be illuminated by the sun under this cloud cave, it can only get sunlight for a few hours every day.
So they have to grow tall enough. Only if you are high enough can you ensure that the sun shines on you and is not blocked by other trees. Even for plants, the competition for survival in this trembling world is extremely fierce. If they cannot grow tall enough, they will not get enough sunlight, and if they do not have enough sunlight, they cannot grow strong enough.
Once there is a hurricane or something, trees that are not thick enough will definitely be broken first.
Soon Liu Gan climbed to about forty meters above the giant tree, but it was not high enough and he still couldn't see anything. He had to work hard to climb into the canopy. Another half hour passed. Liu Gan exhausted almost all the remaining strength in his body and finally climbed to the top of the crown of this giant tree that was more than 100 meters tall.
This tree is the most prominent of all the trees on the summit, being the thickest. The branches, including the crown, are very thick, otherwise it would be difficult to bear the heavy weight of the willow trunk. Although Liu Gan is often alone outside when he is in the real world. I have climbed trees in this kind of jungle before, but I have never climbed such a high tree. More than 100 meters is really an exaggeration.
Looking down from the high tree crown, the scenery in the mountain forest is extremely spectacular and beautiful, but Liu Qian is not in the mood to appreciate this spectacular and beautiful thing now. He just wants to find a way out of the jungle, and then climb down the giant tree. Shu, lead the team members to leave here and rush to the Biochemical Intelligence Center to meet up with the Galaxy as soon as possible.
But after looking around. Liu Qian's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
From the crown of this giant tree, no matter which direction you look at it. There are boundless jungles everywhere, including the sea when they came here. Now they have completely disappeared from the field of vision, replaced by boundless jungles, which makes Liu Qian even doubt whether his current sense of direction is wrong.
After observing for a while on the tree crown, Liu Gan deduced that based on the sun's position, moving direction and the current approximate time, he should be heading in the right direction, still maintaining the southeast direction.
After carefully observing the surrounding mountains and forests, Liu Gan discovered that a certain mountain forest was a little different from other places. He saw a clear dividing line in the mountains and forests in that direction. The trees on one side of the dividing line are very tall, while the same type of trees on the other side are generally about ten meters shorter than here.
This phenomenon in the jungle often means that the dividing line is a river, and it is a relatively wide river, which forcibly separates the jungle on both sides, resulting in inconsistent growth heights of trees along the two sides of the river.
After seeing clearly the situation around him, Liugan rested on the canopy for a few more minutes, regained some of his strength, and then slid down from the top of the canopy, which was more than a hundred high. Because of those smooth vines, it was obviously much easier for him to go down than when he climbed up. As long as he didn't choose the wrong vines that were easy to break, and be careful not to fall down.
"Master Liu, how is the situation ahead? Can we leave the jungle by going down the mountain?" The team members looked expectantly at Liu Gan coming down from the giant tree.
"Yes, but there is still a long way to go." Liu Gan did not tell these team members the truth. If he told them truthfully that the top of the tree is still an endless jungle, they would be so desperate that they would not have the strength to continue. Went on.
Don't talk about them, Liu Gan himself is now a little desperate after observing the forest around the tree crown. Even if he finds a river, he is not sure that the river can lead them out of this damn jungle.
The handheld computer was not with him, and Liu Qian vaguely remembered that although the map inside did not indicate the specific area of the jungle, he could clearly see that the northern suburbs of Tranquility City were several times larger than the southern suburbs. (To be continued~^~)
