Thriller copy beating workers

Things at the camp are settled and there is still some food to last for about a week.

The immediate priority was to find routes to water sources and other bases.

Shu Xin asked twenty people to stay behind to build a camp and search for food.

She didn't know how long everyone would have to stay here. They couldn't just sit there every day.

There were ten people divided into two groups, seven of them were looking for water in a safe place nearby, while she took Molan and Mandy to find the base.

In fact, Shu Xin felt that it was more convenient to go alone, but after all, the two of them were locals and had more experience.

They had collaborated before, and the two were not only better in skills than the others, but also had decent character.

The main reason is that if a base is found, people need to inform it.

With simple preparations, the three of them set off on the road lightly, following the traces of roads left by former civilizations and moving forward.

The road has been completely covered by vegetation, and only the remaining cement stones can be vaguely found among the thick grass.

Because Xue Ying took the initiative to make the life seeds of the octopus tree recognize Shu Xin as the main one, she also had the corresponding aura, which made ordinary mutant plants afraid to attack, and would even crawl to the ground when she approached.

The pressure of walking for three people is much reduced.

Coupled with Shu Xin's force value, Mo Lan and Mandy learned about some edible plants, and they ate and drank along the way.

Despite the fact that the road was rough and difficult and they were sleeping in the open air, the three of them were quite relaxed.

Five days later, the road marks under our feet completely disappeared, and there were towering dense forests ahead.

Unlike most previous fields of weeds and vines, the front is a real world of plants.

Mo Lan said: "About twenty years ago, my father and I came here. We can still vaguely see the traces of the road, but I didn't expect it to be like this now."

Mandy asked: "You said before that there was a city nearby with air-raid shelters, is that true?"

Mo Lan nodded: "Actually, my father brought me here that year because my mother was gone. I heard that my mother had a younger brother here, so I wanted to join her."

"did you find it?"

Mo Lan shook her head: "No, this place was in chaos at that time. The base only accepted locals, and no one from outside was allowed to enter. We didn't find our uncle, and were blocked by those people, so we had to go back."

Now that she came again, she felt unsure.

The living environment now is even worse than before, and I'm afraid the people here still won't take them in.

Shu Xin patted the other party's shoulder and said, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. We need to find the base first."

Mo Lan carefully identified the direction, but all the reference objects were gone, so there was no way to accurately judge.

I can only roughly estimate that the base is within thirty or forty kilometers ahead on the left.

This range is huge, and a slight difference can mean a huge difference.

No way, keep looking.

As she went further into the forest, Shu Xin found that the pressure of the octopus trees on her body gradually diminished, and those plants became more aggressive.

However, they have a strong sense of territory. There is almost only one mutant plant with strong attacks in one place, and the rest are ordinary plants that have evolved.

Surprisingly, among these aggressive plants are often protected fruit-bearing vines and trees.

It's like... people are enclosing land to grow crops.

These mutant plants can also enclosure ordinary plants. Can mutant plants eat other plants?

Mandy explained calmly: "This is too normal. I have seen plants directly block all light, suffocate other plants to death, and then rot and become their own fertilizer. Plants are the largest in the world. Life forms that use land resources and convert external energy into physical objects. Competition between plants is the same as competition among other species."

So no matter what species it is, it cannot escape the law of the jungle.

Shu Xin killed the mutant plants on the outside and surrounded an area of ​​about sixty or seventy square meters in the middle, covered with vines.

There is also an ordinary big tree in the middle of the vines, with thick branches supporting the lush vines.

Vines spread out like waterfalls from the canopy of trees tens of meters high, and the huge waterfall is dotted with fruits the size of basketballs.

Mandy exclaimed in surprise: "It's a clear fruit. Each fruit contains two or three kilograms of clean water. Oh no, it should be a nutrient solution. Even if there is no food, just drinking this water can sustain life... I didn't expect it to be here." Such fruit is really good.”

Mo Lan followed up and said, "It turns out that the fruit grows on vines. I always thought it grew on trees."

They were unable to enter the base that year, and a kind person gave them a fruit on their return trip.

She always remembered that person, but she didn't know what happened to him now.

Mandy couldn't wait to pick one off and put it in her hand.

Because this clear fruit vine is well protected by the surrounding mutant plants, the fruit grows very large, weighing at least six or seven kilograms.

Mandy poked the fruit in several places with her hands, then pried open a small lid, put it in her mouth and drank.

He let out a long sigh and said, "That's what it tastes like. Village chief, let's transplant this clear fruit back. We won't have to worry about running out of water in the future."

Shu Xin picked two and put them in her backpack. She also wanted to transplant them back, but the vine was an old pile with dozens of thick rhizomes entwined together. It was not easy to transplant it.

However, if a contract can be concluded...

Shu Xin thought of the scene where Xue Ying made a contract with the octopus tree. If they could make a contract with this clear fruit, wouldn't it be...

However, Qingguo is just an ordinary evolved plant that can only be used as water to drink and has no fighting power.

Even if a contract can be made, who would be willing to use their precious contract opportunity on this?

For example, if she wants to make a contract in the future, she will have to make a contract with a powerful mutant plant.

No matter what, Shu Xin still expressed her thoughts.

Mandy thought about what the village chief said in front of everyone a few days ago. It turned out that Xueying had really activated her potential and contracted the life seed of the octopus tree.

He couldn't help but ask: "Isn't it possible to make a contract only if the plant has superpowers? Is it possible without one?"

Shu Xin said: "With superpowers, you can communicate with many evolved and mutated plants. Although you can only make a blood contract with one, you can reach a certain alliance. You can make a contract without superpowers. You can only contract with one, and you can only contract with one." Communicate with your contracted plants. And your contracted plants are closely related to life and death."

This……

The two of them were very excited when they got the exact answer from Shu Xin.

Mandy looked at the huge clear fruit in front of him with some hesitation. He really wanted to make a contract, but... this clear fruit seemed to be nothing special except for drinking water.

When hesitating, Mo Lan said: "I am willing to make a contract. Village chief, please help me make a contract."

Even if it is just an ordinary plant, it is difficult for ordinary people to control it with their mental power.

Shuxin used her own blood pressure to control the Qingling Fruit life seed, and then taught Molan step by step the hand seals of the contract.

Because they could not accurately control the perfect combination of their thoughts and handprints, the two tried many times before they finally succeeded.
