386, Lilliput 14
The mature and solemn escorting armed policemen no longer cared about the danger. They pulled away the weeds and swam out. Infected by them, others also rushed out and climbed to the shore on their hands and knees. Standing on the shore, they were still so small. The sun was so far away in their sight that only small green beans were left. Even though their eyes, which were accustomed to darkness, couldn't adapt to tears when they looked directly at the sun, they still watched stubbornly.
"It's so warm."
Yes, it's so warm.
Those dark days, those trembling years, seem to be completely gone when the sun shines on your face.
After that, they immediately contacted Jiang Shujun, but they never got through. "Let's go back to the captain and the others! Didn't Mr. Peng ask a visitor last time that they would leave as soon as dawn?!"
Yu Heng nodded: "But I'm not sure that the information she gave me is correct. For safety reasons, let's not all go back. It's enough for you and I to go back and investigate." The lack of communication made him a little uneasy, so it was not recommended to rush rashly. Everyone turned around again.
"No, no, Mr. Peng, you can't go. Just stay where you are, and everyone will go back to the cave. I will take someone with me."
Yu Heng knew that with his current weight, nothing could happen to him. With such a heavy responsibility on his body, he did not dare to insist on it, so he nodded and returned to the cave.
The wait was long until the communicator in his hand vibrated. After connecting, he heard Jiang Shujun's tired and hoarse but joyful voice: "Xiao Peng, we're fine, see you soon!" He couldn't help but laugh: "Okay. "
"Mr. Peng, let's go ashore first. We can't defend the outside."
"Okay, Captain Jiang said that all the outsiders have disappeared, so there is no need to worry about being caught by them."
Outside the cave, a fat toad stretched out its long and slippery tongue and kept flicking it, making a cooing sound. Such a big enemy blocked the entrance to the cave, and because it was too close, explosive weapons were not dared to be used for fear of injuring one's own people.
Since you want to go out, you must drive away or get rid of this toad. The drizzle attacks before did not work, so you must use a special move now.
"Everyone dig deeper inside, pile the excavated soil in front of you, and then lie down..."
Bang!
The air waves squeezed the cave and deformed it, and the soil fell down, burying people inside. Fortunately, this cannon blasted the giant toad into pieces, and everyone was able to leave the cave entrance. Perhaps the long-lost sunshine came again, and the creatures in the water became more active than ever before. When Yu Heng came out of the cave, he found that the water outside was sparkling, and countless fish stretched their heads. When I came out of the water to breathe, the air bubbles spread out in circles. The explosion just now attracted the attention of other creatures. Yu Heng quickly climbed up and then helped pull the others up together.
"Ouch, my pants!" A researcher's pants were pulled off by Yuzui, and he covered his lower body in panic. "Go quickly or your bird will be eaten!" Another person quickly grabbed him and continued to climb up. The researcher looked back and almost collapsed with fear. I saw countless fish flapping and jumping to the shore, swinging their tails. The huge fish mouths were wide open, and you could see the densely packed sharp teeth inside.
Oh my God, if I were bitten, I can’t imagine the feeling!
They crawled very fast, pulling and pulling without even bothering to bandage the wounds of the injured, and hurriedly left the water.
Looking back, I saw that the river in the sun was extremely dangerous, with sharp mouths opening and closing in layers. Thinking back to the time when a group of people jumped into the river to avoid outsiders——
I should be really lucky that I didn’t jump into the fish’s mouth and put myself into the fish’s belly!
"They also like the sun."
Yu Heng said: "Let's go quickly, they are climbing up."
A researcher rubbed the goosebumps on his hands: "Let's go, let's go! I think they not only like the sun, they also like us!"
After setting fire to the isolation belt to get rid of the big crabs and toads chasing behind them, they stopped to treat their wounds. Yu Heng had enough supplies with him, and it was not difficult to provide medicine.
"The crab smells so delicious when it's roasted."
"Xiang, you can't eat it either. Your butt is chewed like this by the fish and you still want to eat a crab. Be careful it will rot!"
Yu Heng gnawed on one of the claws of the crab and smiled when he heard the words: "Brother Zhang, wait until you are healed before eating. I will sit far away so that you won't hear it."
Brother Zhang smiled wryly and waved his hand: "Okay, please sit further away."
After eating the crab, Yu Heng swept the shell aside with satisfaction. After trimming it, he felt much better, but he still felt a little uncomfortable, and that was his eyes. He has been covering his eyes with a thin layer of cloth since landing, but he is still not used to it, so when he has some free time, he starts massaging the acupuncture points on his eyes. After pressing the button for two rounds, someone called him: "Mr. Peng, let's go!"
The team set off again, this time with high ambitions and no trace of the haste they had during last night's escape.
When he saw Jiang Shujun again, he was covered in burns but still grinning. Listening to his voice through the communicator, it was impossible to imagine that he had suffered such serious injuries!
"Don't worry, I'm happy! Happy!"
After that, the returning Nanheng Military Region team finally arrived and escorted everyone back to Nanheng. During this period, the staff directly dispatched from the Secretariat had been communicating with Yu Heng, asking about his abilities through words.
"Is it natural? Or is it something you get by chance? How can you protect it? It won't suddenly fail, right? What's the principle? I heard that you can carry a lot of things. Where should you put those things? Can it be expanded? Can it be moved? "
Yu Heng only answered: Innate, not needed, don't know, don't know, really don't know.
Faced with his non-cooperation, the direct dispatcher was obviously in a bad mood, which made him laugh. The Secretariat is the closest to the core of the national leader. It's too funny for a direct dispatcher from this place to go to the local military region. It makes people suspect that this person got in through the back door.
After laughing, we still have to take the essence of the matter reflected by this person's actions seriously. Whether it is self-willed or incompetent, he needs to be vigilant.
The worst result is to survive without him. Without the threat of outsiders, he can live well in the wild. The benefits he has gained from this world have been given back, and he does not have the mind to put himself in it.
The direct dispatcher acted straightforwardly. Not only he saw it, but Jiang Shujun also saw it. He talked to him worriedly: "What are you going to do? Are you going to leave? I'll send someone to take you away!" Yu Heng was very moved: "No, I can do it myself."
"How can that be possible? It's not the same as before. At that time, you could go to our base by yourself, and the environment was not that bad! Now it's been more than a year, and these flowers and grasses are cutting people, not to mention that ants are taller than people. It's not safe for you to be alone. I heard from Erdong that the fish in the river are biting people. Oh, listen to me, if you believe me, let me send someone to protect you."
"I will definitely believe you. But Brother Peng, I can really do it myself, you should believe me too!"
Jiang Shujun patted his shoulder, and his face wrapped in gauze could not see any expression. Later, Yu Heng received two boxes of things sent by the familiar armed police. "The captain said it's safer to ask you to keep it." He opened it at the other party's signal, and then looked at the other party calmly. The boxes were not those precious research materials and experimental products, but all weapons. After he joined the main force, he had already returned the things that Jiang Shujun had asked him to keep. The meaning of this box...
The man called Erdong by Jiang Shujun was actually Zheng Dong, but he was a little bit blunt, so he was affectionately called Erdong. That day, Jiang Shujun asked him to take him away, and he dragged him like a sack, which made people laugh and cry. Zheng Dong grinned: "The captain said that the things you carry are very important, so he asked me to follow you."
Then he followed Yu Heng inseparable. Yu Heng had no choice but to say to Jiang Shujun: "Let Brother Dong go back, you need him more here. Brother Jiang? Don't cover your ears, it's too childish."
No way, Zheng Dong still followed, so he had to join Zheng Dong in the plan and leave the large team one night and go east.
Zheng Dong was very happy: "Where do you want to go? I know the way!"
"I want to go to Bailuzhou."
"That's the Flower City, there must be a lot of mutant plants, who do you want to find there? There is a military base nearby called Bailu Base."
"Yes, that's it, I want to find the peony, the king of peony flowers."
Zheng Dong opened his mouth wide: "You are really romantic, you still want to appreciate flowers in this day and age, but now the flowers will eat people."
There is no way, the task is to obtain a peony king, he himself has no intention of appreciating flowers. Now there are enough weapons and ammunition, it's time to do the task.
The two went to the Flower City Bailuzhou, and the journey was not slow. They can be said to be experienced drivers, taking turns to drive very fast. In addition, with the cover of the iron sheet, the mutant creatures were not interested in the iron sheet bumps, which allowed them to avoid a lot of dangers.
"Driving at this time is really a test of driving skills. I could drive the village tractor when I was thirteen years old. At that time, my grandfather said that I had talent! Capable!..."
During the journey, listening to Zheng Dong talk is also a kind of entertainment. For example, when it comes to driving, he can trace back from praising himself as an experienced driver to his heroic feat of driving a tractor at the age of thirteen, and the transition is natural and sincere.
The saying that technology changes life is true everywhere. With a car, the long road is not difficult to walk. They are well-equipped and have arrived at Bailuzhou smoothly.
This trip took nearly three months. Bailuzhou has indeed become a sea of flowers. You can feel the magnificence before entering the city. The road to the city is difficult to walk. The field of vision is full of thick roots and branches, large patches of emerald green leaves, and the dense roots make the ground uneven, and the car is very difficult to squeeze.
Suddenly, a vine stretched out and rolled up the car, swinging it in the air for a few circles. Yu Heng stabilized his body and found through the car window that the car was hanging in the air. There was no other way. He and Zheng Dong climbed out first and then put the car into the storage ring.
"Mr. Peng, run!"
The vines swung towards them. The two grabbed one of them and kicked it hard. They sat in the car that was released again and whizzed away. Although burning is the simplest and most effective method, the two rarely use this method unless it is absolutely necessary. If the fire cannot be controlled, they will be in danger.
After several years of breeding, the Flower City is full of flowers in full bloom, and the nose is full of rich floral fragrance wherever you go. It is a challenge to find the peony king in the layers of flowers. Yu Heng released many puppet substitutes to explore. Later, he collected books in local bookstores and got clues in some local newspapers and atlases. Bailuzhou is a well-known flower sanctuary in China and the largest flower export production area. In a small town called Aixiang Town, peonies are cultivated there.
Because of the news, he and Zheng Dong went to Aixiang Town. The closer they got to Aixiang Town, the more the smell at the tip of their noses began to change. The complex and chaotic smell was replaced by one smell, which was the fragrance of peonies.
After finding Aixiang Town, it was not difficult to find the Flower King. After all, it was the Flower King, so it was always different. Standing out from the crowd, the peony flower king he found was purple-red, looked very rich and elegant, and was quite sturdy. He estimated that it would be a bit difficult for two hundred people to hold hands and hug it. After the system verification, the scanner took the Flower King away.
Zheng Dong was so surprised that his mouth couldn't close. Yu Heng was in a good mood after completing the main task of the mission. That night, he roasted a few fat and tender young ants to celebrate. Zheng Dong asked him: "Mr. Peng, you said you have found the flowers you were looking for. Where are we going next?"
"Don't you want to go back to Nanheng?"
"Yes, but I want to follow you. Where do you go? Where are you going?"
"I don't have a goal. Let's find books. The more books the better."
During the journey, Zheng Dong also saw Yu Heng scanning books several times, so he nodded: "That's good. It's a pity for those books. Many of them are damaged. It's good to collect them. When the school opens, we will donate books!"
Yu Heng smiled: "Okay."
