30 Amphibious
"Be careful!" Fatty Luo reminded earnestly.
"Don't worry." Xue Yifei responded solemnly.
The paddles rose and fell, and the life raft more than one meter wide slowly swept away, gradually moving away from the cabin half-sinked in the water.
Fatty Luo stood in the cabin, watching the thin lifeboat gradually drift away, and suddenly felt a sense of desolation as Prince Dan sent Jing Ke.
He really didn't want to curse Lao Xue, but his thoughts were very twisted. It was not that you could not think about it if you didn't want it, but that the more you didn't want it, the more you leaned forward.
As a local, Fatty Luo knows Luzhou Star better than Xue Yifei. Humans have developed this place for too short time, and only the settlements can be guaranteed to be complete. A little further away is the primitive jungle, with all kinds of unexpected dangers emerging one after another.
Go into the mountains? Go into the water? Stay away from the settlement? Have you never died?
Although this is just a lake, but the lake surface is so big, who knows what is hidden in the water?
After so many years, the spacecraft has remained the only safe means of transportation between various settlements, but now even the spacecraft is not safe. Fatty Luo is full of confusion about Luzhou's tomorrow.
But Fatty Luo also knew that Lao Xue was worried was justified. He could only pray to God silently in a state of anxiety and anxiety... He had never entered a temple or burned incense, and he didn't know if it was useful to immediately make a relationship with God.
Xue Yifei didn't think so much at all. Leaving the cabin might be dangerous, but is it sure that it would be safe if he didn't leave?
If it were normal times, he would definitely not say a word of nonsense and stayed in the cabin for rescue. The problem was that the settlement was evacuated at any time, which meant that Luzhou had reached a certain level of chaos.
The spaceships in Luzhou have long been busy - on the one hand, there are spaceships that have already been damaged, with only a small number of passengers surviving; on the other hand, there are settlement residents who are anxiously waiting and must evacuate as soon as possible, which one is lighter and which one is heavy, can't you tell me clearly?
If he was the old Xue commanding the rescue, he had to withdraw the settlement first and clean up the front and rear, and then launch a rescue operation depending on the situation, instead of abandoning the settlement with a large number of people and running for rescue first with no brains.
If Ludao really does this, it only means that all the senior management of Luzhou are not qualified!
So, counting on rescue is simply a stupid mom opening the door for stupid, so stupid!
Moreover, fate must be fought for by oneself, and Lao Xue has never relied on other people's habits.
Chen Yifei's thoughts are much more complicated. He is unwilling to make trouble from the bottom of his heart, but he already feels that Xue Yifei has been consciously teaching him various knowledge since last night.
He didn't know what Lao Xue's purpose was, but it would be no harm to learn more, especially at this messy juncture.
The place where the cabin fell into the water was a small lake bay. Two arm-like earthen embankments surrounded both sides. With the joint efforts of the six people, the life raft slowly escaped from the embankments, and the lake surface in front of him suddenly became clear.
Xue Yifei clenched his fist with his right hand and raised it over his shoulders. Everyone stopped together, and the life raft, which had no speed, gradually stopped.
I thought that if I left the lake bay, I could see the scene of strange birds falling. But I didn’t expect that the lake shore was extremely tortuous. There was a small peninsula covered with towering trees between the two places. Unless the line of sight could turn, I wouldn’t be able to see anything.
Lao Xue was extremely angry and kept pumping from her teeth.
Chen Yifei glanced at him strangely: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I have a toothache." Xue Yifei grinned, "Let's continue, pay attention to the distance, about a hundred meters!"
Xue Yifei believed that 100 meters was the most reasonable distance. Even if there was any danger in the lake, he could still escape to the shore in time. On the contrary, if there was something on the shore, it would be difficult to cross a distance of 100 meters. Now I am just emphasizing it again.
Bypassing the peninsula with a slight hand and feet, a large area of water suddenly appeared in the lake. Thick and huge leaves covered the water surface like a boat. Between the giant leaves, there were huge cones with green color and rough skin. The thick skin at the top of the cones cracked, revealing the tender yellow fruit peel.
It was observed that the smallest cone was over one meter, and the largest was even about two meters. From a distance, the giant leaf cone rippled with the waves, like a spherical forest floating on the water, as if falling into a dream.
"What is that?" Chen Yifei couldn't help asking.
"Who knows, you can always encounter these strange things in this place."
No one cared about this little episode, including Xue Yifei. The life raft continued to move forward. Chen Yifei suddenly pointed to the shore, and his tone was extremely terrifying: "Look!"
Everyone looked over subconsciously and was immediately stunned by a big tree on the shore.
It is hard to describe the appearance of this big tree. Half of the roots are plunged into the water and half are left on the shore. The trunk is thick and the crown is also very large. The tree body is twisted and bent like an impressionist oil painting, covered with large and small wood tumors, and it feels like a déjà vu that is encountered strong radiation, crazy mutated but tenaciously survived.
These are nothing, the key is that under the amazingly thick branches, there are spherical fruits with a diameter of more than one meter hanging. The outer layer is rough brown skin, and the lower end of the fruit is cracked, revealing the tender yellow skin... Except for the color, everything else is exactly the same as the cones I just encountered!
There were still a few cracked thick skins floating on the lake surface under the tree. The fruits inside had completely disappeared without any residue.
"What's this?" The little man instinctively lowered his voice, just as if the loud sound would wake up the sleeping monster.
"I don't know, it may be a plant that is both water and land." Xue Yifei thought to find the spacecraft quickly, but did not study these strange emotions at all.
Chen Yifei's eyes were full of incredible: "There are lotus leaves in the water, and there are big trees on the shore. Do this thing have two forms?"
"It may also be integrated with water and land..."
There hasn't been a result of this yet, and a more surprising scene appeared. On the towering trees far away from the lake, there were also cones swaying in the wind!
There is a surface, a shore, and a shore. Is there a shore under the water?
No matter how slow Xue Yifei was, he realized that the situation was wrong: "Be careful, stay away from that thing, maybe it's a parasitic plant."
"Parsely parasitize on the shore in the water?" Chen Yifei's three views were almost subverted, "This thing is really a meat-eating thing."
"Is this strange?" Xue Dabei was calm and composed, "Have you seen half plants and half animals?"
Chen Yifei looked at Lao Xue like he was looking at a lunatic: "Do you think I'm stupid?"
Xue Yifei hummed twice: "There are long hair and short knowledge, but you have short hair and short knowledge!"
Chen Yifei insisted on his opinion: "No, can you make a draft first if you brag? You are half an animal and half a plant. Please ask everyone, does anyone believe it?"
Lao Xue curled his lips disdainfully: "It seems like someone who cares about you...... Look, is that the cabin?"
