Chapter 4248: Catching Mice

"There may be something weird about this place. We should check it out. Maybe there will be a cave entrance hiding some strange things, which made Ailao Mountain what it is today." Ning Che said.

Ning Che's suggestion was also echoed by everyone.

But this time, the four of them did not separate and acted together, very cautiously.

He kept his eyes on the rock wall, checking his surroundings.

Unfortunately didn't see anything worth exploring here but everyone was serious about it.

Because in their subconscious mind, they believe that there is a problem in this place, but they don't know where the problem is yet.

"Do you think it's because we're almost at the top of the mountain that we can actually see the sun?" Tao Cheng said.

"It's possible." Qiu Yuluo said:

"Thousands of sails have gone through, and now the light is shining brightly."

"But if you think about it carefully, this core area seems to be nothing. The dangers encountered are not as many as those in the foggy area."

"The core problem is that we have destroyed the balance here, otherwise the heavy fog will trap everything indiscriminately and become the nourishment of this land." Qiu Yuluo said.

"But like you said, when I get here, I feel like I'm finally out of the woods."

I looked around and didn't find anything suspicious.

The four of them gathered at the edge of the waterfall again. Ning Che said:

"There is only such a large area on the top of the mountain. There can be no other salt lakes."

After saying that, Ning Che looked at Lin Yi, "This is probably where your father came from back then."

Lin Yi nodded, looked at the salt lake below and said:

"The fact that that dog can live in this place means that there must be a special place here. There may be some places that we have missed."

"Maybe it's in a more hidden place, but we didn't find it. Let's look for it again. This place is definitely not simple." Ning Che said.

After finalizing the next plan, the four began to explore the surrounding area.

But except for the sound of the waterfall, it was particularly quiet here.

But the more this happened, the more uneasy Lin Yi felt.

The four of them walked in twos and twos in different directions.

During the investigation, I found that the road to the top of the mountain seemed to be different.

There is no suitable road from where they are to the top of the mountain. Instead, it goes around the rock wall to the top of the mountain, like a winding road.

After checking around and finding nothing suspicious, the four of them gathered together again.

"I think we can't waste time here. Let's go up and take a look first." Ning Che said.

Lin Yi looked up and nodded.

In his mind, he recalled the mysterious red light spot he saw on the top of the branch mountain.

What is that thing?

The four of them did not intend to waste any more time. The top of the mountain was right in front of them and they had to go up and have a look.

Lin Yi and Ning Che walked along the path on the rock wall, bit by bit, towards the mountain.

"Why haven't you spoken? Since the call, your words have become less and less." Ning Che said.

"I think this place is a bit weird. If we can't figure out the situation here in a short time, we may be trapped and die here."

Ning Che's expression was serious.

There's something weird about this place, it's obvious, it goes without saying.

Now that he has brought this matter up, the weirdness he talks about may be different from what he imagined.

"Stuck to death?" Ning Che looked at Lin Yi seriously and said:

"Did you find something?"

"It's just some strange phenomena happening."

"Tell me and listen."

"It's very simple. Look above your head. We can see the sky in a place like this. Don't you think it's strange?"

Lin Yi said slowly:

"Also, the trees here have become thicker and straighter. They are no longer as chaotic and crooked as before. These are all strange phenomena."

"We have already reached the top of the mountain. The terrain here is higher and the trees can absorb more sunlight, so the rise will be better. This is normal."

"But is it possible that this is the result of natural selection? Or, it is the invisible force that turned this place into what it is now."

"If it's true, it should be beneficial to us."

"No, you have overlooked one thing." Lin Yi said:

"If we really overcome all kinds of difficulties and reach the top of the mountain, it can indeed be said that the situation is dark and the flowers are bright again. But think about it, we have just arrived here and have not yet conquered Ailao Mountain. Now this situation has occurred, is it? Not very strange."

After listening to what Lin Yi said, Ning Che realized that his thinking was a bit simplistic.

Looking back at the trees and the sky above her head, Ning Che suddenly felt that she seemed to be surrounded, a suffocating feeling that made her unable to breathe.

"If this is all the result of natural selection, have we fallen into a carefully designed trap?" Ning Che said worriedly.

"Yes, just like if you want to catch mice, you will definitely design the trap well and put some food on it to attract the mice." Lin Yi said:

"Look at the current situation. Do you feel like catching a mouse? The only difference is that we have become mice and have entered the capture range. We may be attacked at any time."

hiss--

Ning Che took a deep breath and got goosebumps all over her body.

"Don't scare me."

Lin Yi smiled, "I'm not scaring you, I'm just reminding you, don't be too optimistic before you leave Ailao Mountain. Many dangers are hidden in the details."

"You mentioned it was strange, but I found something different."

Ning Che lowered his head, "Look, this path is called a road because there are not so many weeds here, but this is a place where no one has ever set foot. Who would carve out a path in this place?" "

What Ning Che said was what Lin Yi had been thinking about.

It is indeed abnormal for such a situation to occur in a place like this.

The two of them squatted down and looked at the ground beneath their feet. Ning Che took a knife and cut off an unknown plant.

But at this time, the plant was not green, but withered and dark yellow.

"This is Ailao Mountain. The temperature and humidity here are a paradise for plants. This should not happen."

Lin Yi nodded and said: "Another strange phenomenon has appeared, and this is not an isolated case. Look at the road ahead. There are also many plants of this color appearing, as if they are withered, and they have spread to the top of the mountain. "

"But next to them, there are also many plants that are growing happily, and they are still the same kind of plants." Ning Che sighed with emotion and said:

"It's strange that the same plants grow in different states in the same environment."
