Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 317 Weird Stones

At this time, the place where Lin Rantong and the others are located is already the back door of the school. Outside the back door is not a flat ground, but a high hill. From the top of the mountain to the back door, there are all kinds of trees. Mutations are generated.

The place Liu Yu pointed to was the halfway up the hill. It was autumn now, but the trees didn't look decayed, and they were still lush and green, but the red color that appeared and disappeared on the halfway up the mountain was as conspicuous as the sunset.

"Go and have a look." Lin Rantong said.

Several people speeded up, pushed aside the thick vines and the ubiquitous thorns in the forest, and slowly came to the halfway up the mountain, only then did they see clearly what the red color that was faintly appearing at that time was.

It turned out to be a piece of red stone!

Liu Yu picked up a stone and lifted it up to look at it.

The whole stone is as big as a duck egg, oval in shape, and has a transparent red color, which is very similar to the crystal nucleus, but the texture is not so transparent, and it looks thicker.

"It's so beautiful, what kind of stone is this?" Liu Yu praised while rubbing the stone.

Lin Rantong felt the warmth transmitted by the stone, and his heart moved.

Almost subconsciously, she used the method of using the crystal nucleus to use the stone, and a scorching heat came from her palm, causing her to throw the stone out with an "ah".

"Tongtong, what's the matter?" Liu Yuan hurriedly took Lin Rantong's hand, and when he saw a red mark on her fair palm, he couldn't help but frowned and said, "Why does it seem to be hot, does it hurt?"

"It's okay, but why is that stone so weird and hot?" Lin Rantong said, shaking his hands.

At this time, Tao Haiyang picked up the stone thrown by Lin Rantong, and said strangely: "It is really hot." After speaking, he put the stone in front of his eyes, and studied it carefully.

Lin Rantong couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Tao Haiyang, don't you think it's hot?"

Only then did Tao Haiyang retract his eyes that were almost glued to the stone, and said to Lin Rantong: "Hehe, Rantong, don't forget that I'm from the light system, so the heat is nothing, but this stone is really strange , It’s been heating up all the time, uh, the heat is stable.”

"Tongtong, why did it suddenly become hot?" Liu Yuan asked with a stone in his hand.

Lin Rantong said depressedly: "I used it like a crystal nucleus."

Seeing that the stone in Liu Yuan's hand suddenly became brighter than before, it was obvious that he also inspired the stone, Lin Rantong choked for a moment, and then said speechlessly: "Husband, don't you think it's too hot?"

Liu Yuan smiled and nodded.

Lin Rantong turned his head straight to Liu Yu.

Liu Yu said awkwardly: "Sister-in-law, I don't know how to use supernatural powers..."

Lin Rantong was stunned for a moment before realizing that Liu Yu was not a supernatural being. She looked at the stones in the hands of Tao Haiyang and Liu Yuan, thought for a while, leaned over and picked up more than ten stones and put them into the space, saying: " This stone is very interesting, let's go back and study it to see what it is useful for."

Because they found such a strange stone, they didn't want to stay here, so they picked up their speed and ran towards the house.

"Tao Haiyang, are there any other rocks like this in the Obstinate Stone Base?" Lin Rantong asked as he hurried along the road.

Tao Haiyang played with the hot stone in his hand and said, "I've never heard of it, and it probably didn't exist here before, otherwise it would have been discovered long ago, probably the third time after dark."

Several people chatted casually, and soon arrived home.

"Mom, you're back." An Ran was playing with Lin Baiyu and the others, when she saw Lin Rantong and the others coming in, she neatly rolled over from the big tiger and ran over on her short legs.

"Hey, what is this?" An Ran saw the stone in Liu Yuan's hand, and immediately became interested, stretching out her fat paws to grab it.

"Ah!" Before the adults had time to stop, An Ran yelled, and then the red stone flew out of his little hand, and landed on Lin Baiyu, who was squinting and squatting comfortably in the yard.

With a scream of "Aw", Lin Baiyu raised her two front paws, her whole body stood up high, her two hind legs landed on the ground and kept circling in circles.

The little monkey beat the ground with one paw, and leaned forward and back together with a smile, while the big carved wood used one wing leisurely to fan the dust raised by Lin Baiyu, and looked at them with half-closed bird eyes amusingly.

Lin Rantong didn't care to laugh, and hurriedly pulled An Ran over and said, "Of course, is it hot?" He said and gave Liu Yuan a hard look.

Liu Yuan blinked innocently, his wife was still the same, and whenever his son had something to do, he would take it out on him.

An Ran shook her head naively and said, "Mom, I'm fine."

After finishing speaking, he hurried to Lin Baiyu's side, raised his head and said softly: "Lin Baiyu, are you burning, but I'm sorry, I'm sorry Lin Baiyu."

Seeing the chubby little man's apologetic face, Lin Baiyu, who had stretched out his tiger's paws to blow him away, forcibly resisted the urge, snorted fiercely from his nose, and turned half over. Blindly gone.

Chu Zhuzhu and the others who came out of the house stared dumbfounded at the commotion, with black lines on their faces.

"Rantong, what's going on?" Chu Zhuzhu asked curiously.

"Everyone come in and say, Tang Tang and the others are back?" Lin Rantong asked while pulling his son inside.

"I haven't returned yet." Chu Zhuzhu replied with her mouth, but her eyes never left the stone Tao Haiyang was playing with. As for the stone that An Ran threw on Lin Baiyu, it was lying on the ground, and the little monkey tentatively touched it. Touch, and then there was a tragic "chirp" sound.

"Here, that's where we found this thing." Lin Rantong said as he placed the stones one by one on the table from the space.

Several people gathered together, looking at the strange stone curiously.

Chu Zhuzhu stared at it for a long time, and finally couldn't help stretching out her hand to touch it, and then said, "It's not hot."

Lin Rantong smiled wryly and said: "It will only be hot if it is stimulated by the method of using crystal nuclei."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Zhuzhu couldn't wait to pick up a stone to test it out, and then threw the stone out as expected, and Liu Yuan, who had been prepared for a long time, grabbed it in his hand.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooload

Lin Rantong couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth. People have this mentality. They have to try it themselves before believing in unknown things.

"Give me some research." Liu Lan excitedly took out a pair of thin gloves and put them on her hands, then grabbed a stone and said.

Everyone saw that Liu Lan looked at the stone carefully first, then took out different tools from her tool bag and tapped on the stone, and then without saying a word, rolled up the stone on the table and ran away. It wasn't until there was the sound of closing the door that everyone reacted.

"Sister Mo Li, is Liu Lan sick again?" Chu Zhuzhu covered her mouth and said.

Mo Li nodded as usual: "Look more carefully, by the way, there is no need to prepare dinner for her. As for tomorrow, I can leave breakfast at her door."

Everyone smiled and nodded.

However, Lin Rantong had a feeling in his heart that this stone must have a very amazing effect. As for what it is, maybe Liu Lan will surprise them.

In autumn, the days began to shorten, and the sky quickly sank, but Tang Tang and the others had not returned yet.

Lin Rantong finally couldn't sit still. At that time, he thought that Cui Zhenlei was no threat to everyone at all, and dealing with people related to Aunt Cui was as disgusting as eating flies, so he didn't go. Now he is a little worried.

"No, husband, Tao Haiyang, let's look for it." Lin Rantong stood up and said.

Tao Haiyang stood up and said, "Let's go, where shall we go first?"

Lin Rantong looked at Liu Yuan, who was motionless.

Liu Yuan smiled at the two of them: "Don't worry, they'll be back soon."

"How do you know?" Tao Haiyang rolled his eyes.

Liu Yuan glanced at Lin Rantong with a smile and said: "One of my abilities, their aura is getting closer and closer to us."

Lin Rantong instantly understood that it must be a tracking technique!
Sure enough, after waiting for more than ten minutes, I heard movement from the gate.

When Lin Rantong and the others walked into the yard, they saw Tang Tang and the others closing the door and walking towards the house.

The gradually sinking night couldn't hide the paleness on Tang Tang's face. Although Xia Yongjia and Ma Zhi were expressionless, their tense expressions also showed that it was not a good thing.

Lin Rantong's heart sank, and he asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Tang trembled her lips, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't say it, she grabbed Lin Rantong's hand, Lin Rantong only felt cold and cold.

"Tang Tang, what's the matter, don't worry, talk about things slowly." Lin Rantong said softly.

Tang Tang held Lin Rantong's hand shaking violently, she took a deep breath, and said word by word: "Ran...Rantong, Tian Xin, she is dead!"

Lin Rantong froze, and said in a shy voice: "Dead? How are you sure, did you see her..." He couldn't help but look at Xia Yongjia.

Xia Yongjia nodded, changed his smiling expression and said: "Yes. We went to find Cui Zhenlei first, but his friend said that he hadn't seen him for many days, and then asked around for some clues, and went to a very far away and very secret place , and two corpses were found there!"

"Two?" Liu Yu asked again with a pale face.

Ma Zhi looked at the crowd and said, "That's right, although the two corpses have rotted, they can still be identified. One belongs to Tian Xin, and the other belongs to... Cui Zhenlei!"

Lin Rantong couldn't tell how she felt at this moment. Although she hated Cui Zhenlei, she couldn't say that she hated him too much. Knowing that he died, she didn't feel happy.As for Tian Xin, after all, she has lived and died together, but she is not heartbroken. Maybe it is because after the end of the world, she gradually saw too many deaths, and the nerve of grief gradually became numb.

Just thinking of that girl who looked like a cute little white rabbit, but resolutely went to the city alone at the risk of death in order to find her parents, she still sighed deeply in her heart.

"Then are their bodies..." Lin Rantong asked.

"No, it's already in that state, it's inconvenient to bring it back, it's been buried on the spot," Xia Yongjia said.

"Rantong, if I knew this, I shouldn't have let her go alone." Tang Tang choked up.

Lin Rantong was about to speak when Ma Zhi suddenly said, "There is another strange thing."
