Chapter 1709: The Oversized Apple

When the gunshots rang out, Ning Tao thought it was human survivors shooting at him and Bi Mingzhu, but what he saw was a furry guy holding a weapon suspected to be a rifle in his hand.

It was an ape-man.

Those who shot at him and Bi Mingzhu were all ape-men, wearing simple and rough clothes, and their armed belts were full of magazines and grenades.

What is an ape-man?

"Did you kill him?" an ape-man roared.

Ning Tao was dumbfounded.

The ape-man spoke Chinese.

"I saw someone fall, a man and a woman, they are wearing ancient battle armor, they should be alive." An ape-man replied.

"Catch them!" roared the leading ape-man again.

A large group of ape-men surrounded them from all directions, shrinking the encirclement while roaring to create a sense of oppression.

Ning Tao's mind is still in a mess.

The apes who have guns and shoot at him and Bi Mingzhu are enough to make him horrified, but these apes still speak Chinese, which is not only horrifying but also weird.

Bi Mingzhu reached out to grab the big gun from her shoulder.

Ning Tao suppressed her hand: "No rush."

"Not in a hurry?" Bi Mingzhu couldn't understand Ning Tao's operation at all. The apes were getting closer, but he didn't let her draw the gun and said it was not in a hurry.

Ning Tao suddenly reached out, put one arm around Bi Mingzhu's waist, and the other around her leg, and immediately picked her up.

"Old send, you?" Bi Mingzhu couldn't understand Ning Tao's operation even more.

Ning Tao bent his legs, and then charged up and jumped into the air.

Click!

The thigh-thick branch broke under the force, and Ning Tao rushed through the dense canopy with the green pearl in his arms, jumped up to a height of 100 meters, and then fell into the forest again.

The wind whistled in her ears, and Bi Mingzhu was not nervous at all during the process of rising and falling. For her, Ning Tao's arms were the safest place in the universe.

bang bang bang!

gunfire,

But not a single bullet flew this way.

The forest is extremely dense, Ning Tao jumped from the canopy, and the canopy below became a natural shelter. The apes couldn't even see him and Bi Mingzhu, let alone hit them.

Crash!

Ning Tao's legs smashed through a tree crown and fell directly from the tree crown to the ground. But he didn't even shake the Bi Mingzhu when he was holding it, but his calf was completely submerged in the mud. Only then did he let go and put Bi Mingzhu down, and then pulled his legs out from the mud.

"I think your legs are much more useful than your clouds." Bi Mingzhu looked at Ning Tao's frog legs and said with a smile. Although it was a bit eye-catching, she loved it.

"Although I have regained my mana, it is far from my peak state. Maybe it's because of my lack of mana." Ning Tao said while patting the dirt and fallen leaves on the soft armor stuck to his calf.

This is the second set of flexible armor he took from the secret vault. The first set was disassembled in the coffin of the tomb of God. He didn't want to wear it at first, he thought that Bi Mingzhu wouldn't mind and it was convenient, but he wanted to find the surviving human beings, that look was inappropriate after all, so he took another set and put it on.

"Then what spells can you use now?" Bi Mingzhu asked.

Ning Tao thought for a while and said, "I don't have any of my magic seals, but if I want to recite mantras, I think most spells can be used."

"Try it." Bi Mingzhu's eyes were full of anticipation.

Ning Tao pinched a formula, recited the mantra, and then moved his mind. His body instantly separated into three clones, plus his real body

, All of a sudden four of them appeared.

Bi Mingzhu could tell who was the main body and who was the avatar at a glance, because the main body was wearing soft armor, but the other three avatars were not. But this surprised her, Ning Tao's body was very familiar to her, and the three clones were exactly the same as the Ning Tao's body she was familiar with, without any difference.

"Your clone skills are good." Bi Mingzhu praised, and reached out to poke a clone's chest. The muscles were strong and elastic, and the hand felt familiar to her.

At this moment, there was a sudden gunshot behind him, and the bullets swished towards this side, hitting the tree trunk with a cracking sound, and the leaves and trunk fragments flew across.

Ning Tao only jumped more than 200 meters away with the Bi Mingzhu in his arms. Those apes are good at running and climbing in the forest, so they can catch up here soon.

"The source of the smell is over there!"

"Kill them!"

"Oh ho ho ho!"

"Bang bang bang..."

The sound of gunshots and strange screams became one, and the distance was getting closer and closer.

Bi Mingzhu said: "Old Song, why don't you let me shoot? Although they are many, it should be easy for us to kill them."

Ning Tao said: "It's just some ape-men. Killing them won't solve the problem, and you should have heard that they speak Chinese, which is my mother tongue. I have to investigate clearly."

"Okay then, I'll listen to you, but what shall we do now?"

With a move of Ning Tao's mind, he raised his finger and pointed in one direction: "Go!"

Three clones, one hour, and the other two ran in the direction he pointed.

"They're running over there, chase them!" shouted an ape-man.

"Stop them!"

"Catch alive!"

"Oh ho ho ho!"

"Bang bang bang..."

A large group of apes chased in the direction of the two clones.

Ning Tao smiled: "Shouldn't we solve the problem now? Don't forget that we are gods, and we don't have to use killing to solve the problem. We have many ways to solve the problem."

"Then what should we do now?" Bi Mingzhu asked.

Ning Tao said: "Let's go, let's search in this forest. The base of the group of apes should be in this forest."

He chose a direction at random and walked in that direction.

No matter how slow the blue cloud is, it can still fly at the speed of a helicopter, and it is condescending, which is obviously more convenient, but it is also an eye-catching target, which can be easily spotted by the apes in the forest, so he gave up.

Bi Mingzhu followed Ning Tao, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Old Song, you said that there might be human beings surviving, but why did we meet apes instead of humans? In the universe I rule , Ape-man is a very low-level creature, he can't even farm, let alone use firearms and weapons."

Ning Tao shook his head: "I don't know either. In the universe I rule, ape-man was once considered the ancestor of human beings. It took millions of years of evolution to evolve into human beings. But the ape-man we met not only Uses firearms and weapons, and speaks Chinese, so it's weird."

"Do you think the surviving humans have degenerated and evolved from humans to apes?" Bi Mingzhu said.

Ning Tao was stunned for a moment, but smiled again: "How is that possible? Evolution usually moves forward, so there is no one who evolves backwards."

Those apes were degenerated from human beings. He had never even thought about this hypothesis. He thought it was simply a fantasy.

Bi Mingzhu said: "Evolution is to adapt to the environment. If the environment changes, you need to adapt to the environment."

Only by adapting to the environment can we survive, then it is possible for human beings to degenerate from a high evolutionary level to a low evolutionary level. "

Ning Tao was surprised: "So... it is really possible that those ape-men evolved from surviving humans?"

"I can't be sure, but we can't rule out this hypothesis." Bi Mingzhu said.

Ning Tao nodded and continued to walk forward, thinking about this question in his mind, but the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

After about a kilometer, Ning Tao moved his divine sense and revoked the two divisions.

"Old Song, look there!" Bi Mingzhu raised her finger and pointed in one direction, looking very excited.

Ning Tao looked along her finger, saw a fruit tree, and was stunned.

It was an apple tree, about ten meters high, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the branches were covered with red apples, each of which was the size of a child's head. Looking at the trunk, branches and leaves, they are also much larger than normal apple trees.

This is the first time Ning Tao has seen an apple with a large head.

"I'm a little hungry, I'm going to pick one and eat it." Bi Mingzhu said and walked towards the apple tree.

Ning Tao said: "No need to go, I will pick it for you."

He stretched out his hand, grabbed it and took it away, and an apple with the size of a human head flew over and fell into his hand.

Fetching objects from a distance, this is just a low-level spell, and it comes at your fingertips.

Bi Mingzhu couldn't wait to take the big apple from Ning Tao's hand, and then took a bite.

Ning Tao was a little speechless: "Are you so hungry, and you didn't test whether it was poisonous. What if the apple is poisonous?"

Bi Mingzhu wiped the corner of her mouth and said with a smile: "I am also the Lord of the Three Realms, even if this apple is poisonous, it will not kill me."

Ning Tao: "..."

"Don't worry, this apple is not poisonous and tastes good. You should also try it." Bi Mingzhu held the apple in both hands and handed it to Ning Tao. The place where she took a bite was overflowing with apple juice, exuding a sweet smell. .

Ning Tao stretched out his mouth and took a bite, and it tasted really good. It was the best thing he had eaten since he came into this world.

But this is not normal.

How can an apple on earth grow so big?

Bi Mingzhu gnawed on the apple again, she was really hungry.

Ning Tao suddenly remembered something, he sat cross-legged on the ground, and squeezed a seal with both hands.

Bi Mingzhu chewed on an apple, and said vaguely, "Old Song, what are you doing?"

Ning Tao said: "I suddenly thought of a possibility."

"What possibility?"

"I'll tell you later, you should eat the apple first." Ning Tao closed his eyes, and his brain immediately entered a state of emptiness.

He wants to cultivate.

Since becoming the Lord of the Three Realms, he has not practiced again, and this is the first time he has practiced since becoming the Lord of the Three Realms.

His cultivation does not require any cultivation techniques. After all, he is the master of the three realms, and he can capture the aura of heaven and earth, that is, the spiritual energy in heaven and earth, with a single movement of his divine mind.

There was no wind in this forest, but after Ning Tao began to practice, there was a breeze in this forest. The wind was also strange, not blowing in one direction, but blowing towards Ning Tao's body from all directions.

After Bi Mingzhu finished eating the apple, she burped, and then turned her eyes to Ning Tao. Only at this time did she feel the breeze blowing from all directions, she was slightly stunned, and blurted out: "This is... aura!"
