Puff after puff of dust was raised into the air, and fell in clusters like mist and rain, forming a small mound next to the sweating woman.

I have been digging for almost an hour. Looking around, I can see that there are four or five small mounds like this scattered here and there.

In my memory, this was indeed the place where the Spring Cherry Snow disappeared; but Lin Sanjiu had opened up a large area of ​​the surrounding soil, revealing a layer of huge, intertwined white rhizomes underneath. However, when you look carefully, these rhizomes But there wasn't even a shadow inside.

The warm hope she had was suddenly dashed - Lin Sanjiu felt her blood vessels pulsing. She rubbed her swollen temples, not knowing what went wrong.

How about trying another place?

She reluctantly cheered herself up.

Walking anxiously back to the campsite last night, Lin Sanjiu dug for another two hours without daring to take a break. Finally, he fell down on the mound of soil and looked at the sweaty mud all over his body. , the mouth felt bitter.

At this moment, in front of her, the earth took on a strange appearance.

The originally dense plants, mixed with masonry and soil, were uprooted and piled aside; what was exposed were white rhizomes as thick as a locomotive, densely coiled into a large area.

It looks like when a person's skin is peeled off, what is exposed is not flesh and blood, but countless white maggots——

But this is only the outermost layer of the "white radish". Most of their bodies are still buried deep in the soil, and they don't know how deep they grow downward.

"Don't you mean that the missing people were sucked into these 'radish's?" Lin Sanjiu murmured to himself: "If they weren't the ones doing it, why are some of the 'radish's stuffed with food?" Where are the dead people..."

There is also a possibility that a person died here, and then the "white radish" gradually wrapped the dead body in the process of growth.

Thinking of this, Lin Sanjiu felt that this hypothesis had some truth - after all, she had touched these things countless times during the digging process. If "white radish" really attacked people, why was she still fine?

In fact, the easiest way is to find a mouse or insect to test it; but Lin Sanjiu discovered just now: even though she dug the soil so vigorously, she didn't find even a single insect among the grass in the soil. .

She still remembers the ugly beetles the size of a human head, with densely packed blood-red compound eyes. When she first came out of the Garden of Eden, she could see several beetles almost a day; while sleeping, eating, and walking, she could see them from nowhere. Emerging - Hui Chu Yan occasionally screamed unexpectedly, and was always ridiculed by Xue Jin.

The nest of this kind of beetle also looks disgusting. There are round shallow pits in a large round nest. Generally, there are four bugs in a nest, which is just enough for four human heads.

The reason why Lin Sanjiu knew so well was because she had destroyed several such empty nests during the digging process just now.

I don't know since when, the bugs in these nests have disappeared without a trace like her friends.

She sat on the mound, stretched out her feet, stared blankly at the tangled white roots in front of her, and subconsciously counted the time.

Spring Yingxue, Bai Xiaoke and error code 517 disappeared the earliest, and it has been 24 hours now; although the exact time when the others disappeared is not clear, it is almost 15 hours since they were discovered...

As soon as his thoughts turned to this, Lin Sanjiu immediately slapped himself with his backhand.

"I don't care how long they've been missing!" She gritted her teeth, a look of anger showing between her brows. "You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you're dead!"

When he was digging the soil just now, because he didn't know what these "white radishes" were, Lin Sanjiu was a little wary of them, so he was always careful when he started, and he didn't even dare to damage their skin.

But now that she was fierce, she didn't care so much. She picked up the long knife she found on the ear guide and swung it towards "White Radish"——

The layer of hard skin on their surface was not as strong as it looked. Lin Sanjiu felt that his knife had just touched the radish skin, but before cutting it off, the skin suddenly opened on its own. It was said that it was open, but it was not. No, it feels more like "opening". Just like when a person opens his mouth when eating, there are long threads of mucus hanging in the open mouth of the radish skin.

And her long knife sank into the sticky, soft, semi-solid mucus without any hindrance. The "white radish" immediately closed its skin, as if it had half of the blade in one mouthful. In the mouth.

Lin Sanjiu held the handle of the knife and was stunned for a few seconds - unlike the expected "white radish" fragments flying everywhere, she didn't know what to do for the moment.

...Do you want to pull the knife out? Or should we row along like this?

Before she could make up her mind, something happened to "White Radish" again - with a "crash", the blade was covered with a large amount of mucus and was pushed out from the opened skin.

The closed radish skin looked exactly the same as before, with no trace of it ever being opened.

Well?

Lin Sanjiu looked at the wet long knife, and then at the white root in front of him. "...Why, you don't think it tastes good?"

This was indeed her first reaction.

When I took a closer look, I saw that there was more than just mucus hanging on the long knife; there were also some strands of slender roots, which seemed to have been cut off by the knife before being brought out - they were like fish out of water. , struggled and rolled in the air for a while, then hung down and stopped.

This thing is so inexplicably disgusting...

After thinking about it, she grabbed a blade of grass, wiped the long knife clean, put it away, and then slowly moved her arm closer to the "white radish".

This time, Lin Sanjiu's eyes were fixed on it, not daring to miss the slightest abnormality.

When she accidentally encountered this kind of "white radish" before, they would often tremble slightly. Lin Sanjiu didn't pay attention, just thinking it was because they were related to life; but after paying close attention now, she realized Only then can I clearly see this "trembling" process.

When her arm was almost close to the radish skin, a small area was opened slightly. In the gap, you could barely see clearly the groups of thin roots wrapped in mucus, as if the brain had been cut open and exposed. the nerves inside.

A thin root stretched out its head from the gap tentatively, but for some reason, before the mucus hanging on it could drip down, the root had quickly retracted, and the radish skin closed, "White Radish" trembled slightly, and looked as if nothing had happened.

Lin Sanjiu stared at all this in stunned silence, unable to make a sound.

She raised her arm and tried several more places, and the "white radish" in each place had almost the same reaction. After trying it once, no matter how close she got, or even putting her hand on her, she still couldn't get any response.

"What the hell is this?" Lin Sanjiu punched the "white radish", causing it to open a small hole, and then looked around helplessly.

Although there were no bugs to experiment with, she had almost concluded that both humans and animals were involved in these "white radishes" - but she didn't know why, but they refused to attack her.

It would be nice if someone came to verify her thoughts... With her by her side, nothing would happen...

That's what he thought, but Lin Sanjiu also knew that this was unlikely.

Because the range of the "base" detected by the [Dog Frisbee] has long been expanded compared to last night when we were camping - Lin Sanjiu can be sure that if she runs to the [Dog Frisbee] now, it will show If you start digging at the edge of the earth, you will definitely find the same "white radish".

These things seem to be constantly growing forward at extremely fast speeds.

"Should we call Gong Daoyi?" Lin Sanjiu thought of the only person she could contact. "That guy is quite powerful. He should at least be able to protect himself..."

She sat down facing the "white radish", called out the paper crane, and rubbed it back and forth in her hands. She didn't know what she was hesitating about.

Today's radiation cloud is not thick, and it is the time when the sun is high. The sunlight dyes the strange scene around her with a layer of bright warmth. Even the "white radish" looks a bit crystal clear. .

Under such sunshine, if there are a few long shadows suddenly appearing around you, it will be very conspicuous.

Lin Sanjiu jumped up, and when she turned around, the long knife was already tightly held in her hand.

No matter who it is, it is definitely not easy to deal with if he can come up behind her so quietly——

However, as soon as her eyes fell on the uninvited guest behind her, she breathed a sigh of relief - Lin Sanjiu herself did not expect that she actually knew the visitor.

No wonder I walked without making any sound, and came up behind me without even saying hello——

"Why are you guys..." She didn't have any bad feelings towards the visitor, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net but she still had to be on guard. "Did Nuwa ask you to attack me again?"

The two people behind them have two-meter-high torsos, with two pairs of arms on each side, and their heads are in the shape of almonds - they are the two "new people" created by Nuwa, Montesquieu and Aristotle.

Montesquieu seemed to understand what she meant, and shook his head slightly but clearly - its blue-grey skin shone brightly in the sun, reminding Lin Sanjiu of a dolphin.

I don’t know if it was because she was under too much pressure alone, but when she met the sages this time, she actually felt a bit of intimacy: "...Then why are you here? If you are seen by other evolutionaries, you will Attack you as a fallen species."

Judging from Nuwa's previous behavior, she clearly hid them on the top floor of the black tower - this time, for some unknown reason, the sages were walking outside openly.

Aristotle nodded after hearing this, not knowing whether he agreed with her or expressed gratitude for her concern - then Montesquieu took out a folded paper from his belt pocket and handed it to Lin Sanjiu. r1152
