Chapter 749: Entering the Jungle: Calm on the First Day
In the next few days, Tan Yue, the mother beast and Xiao Jia lived a relatively leisurely life. The other two little beasts were also very happy. Compared with their mother and brother Xiao Jia, these two little guys were It¡¯s precious in the eyes of researchers! For example, when it comes to calcium intake, their mother and brother can only absorb the calcium by chewing some loose rocks, such as shale, but the two of them do not need it. There are a lot of calcium tablets. , so that these two children don¡¯t have to suffer at all!
Yes, the plate armor on the body of the little ones and the mother animals is actually made of calcium. They absorb the calcium from the stones in nature for a long time, mixed with some elements in their bodies, and finally form a hard stone. Armor, whether it is the mother beast or its kin, is slowly accumulated in this way, but now, there is a more labor-saving method.
The two little guys now have one arm. Although they are taking calcium tablets, the armor has not condensed on the body surface. It is still crystal clear, showing a childish cuteness. The tail that is as round as amber is also a favorite thing for some girls to play with.
"Hiss" Xiao Jia used the chain tail to sweep away the little guy who was climbing up Tan Yue's legs. It didn't want the little guy to prevent the owner from adding a steel hook to its tail spine. That was extremely difficult for Xiao Jia. Envious!
Tan Yue carefully locked the last firmware, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xiao Jia: "Don't bully them! Go and try to see if it works or not?"
Gently put the little guy who crawled on his lap at the door and let them play by themselves, while he came outside to watch Xiao A's training.
Compared with the pair of steel hooks on the mother beast, the steel hook on Xiaojia's tail is much smaller. If you want to describe it, it is very similar to the steel hook on the hook and sickle gun, except that the steel hook on Xiaojia's tail is sharper. The blade is not on the inner edge, the cutting edge is on the arc of the outer edge.
"Try hooking the branch. You only have one chain tail now. If you want to complete the floating, you need to cooperate with your limbs" Tan Yue taught patiently, letting Xiao Jia complete the first floating movement. , watching the results, the little guy was very excited. His body was light and he could find trees suitable for him to exercise in the camp. So, Xiaojia started to float over the base!
After having a great time, Xiao Jia returned to Tan Yue. The master had said that this steel hook had other uses.
"Did you see that branch? Use your tail to attack it, but don't use the tail stinger. Try using that steel hook!" Tan Yue gestured and told Xiao Jia what to do.
Xiao Jia understood. The chain tail slid and ejected with great force. There was a click, and the branch broke in response, and was sharply cut off by the crescent-shaped steel hook.
"Not bad! Very smart!" Tan Yue stroked the tip of Xiao Jia's nose and praised him. At the same time, he was very pleased that his hard work was not in vain. At first, when Xiao Jia was struggling to install the steel hook, Tan Yue said Therefore, he refused because he was worried that installing the steel hook would hinder its attack. Later, he was inspired by chance and asked him to install such a steel hook for Xiao A. In this case, the hook would not hinder Xiao A's attack, and even On certain occasions, Xiaojia's full blow, with the sharp outer edge of the steel hook, can exactly increase the damage to the prey!
When the mother and son had fully exercised their newly added abilities, Tan Yue felt that it was time to explore the world outside the mountain pass. With the mother beast, Tan Yue's help greatly increased, but when it was time to set off, the mother beast But Tan Yue strongly expressed his intention to take Xiao A with him. Tan Yue thought for a while and agreed. The mother beast also wanted to exercise Xiao A. Tan Yue felt that with him and the mother beast around, Xiao A would be safe. Not a problem at all!
Back in the underground space, Tan Yue began to organize his equipment. It was actually simple. With the mother beast, Tan Yue only needed to fix the backpack on the mother beast. With such a good vehicle, Tan Yue became much more relaxed.
Weapons, food, water, and some things special to Tan Yue were all put into two backpacks made of bulletproof cloth. With the cooperation of the mother beast, they were fixed on both sides of its back. For the mother beast, these things were Nothing at all.
"Tan, be careful!" Before leaving, almost all the personnel in the base gathered at the mountain pass. They all looked at Tan Yue eagerly. As before, every first visit was done by Tan Yue alone. .
"Well, I know, let's go back, let's go!" Tan Yue waved to everyone, walked down the mountain coolly, and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Boy! I'm waiting for you to come back!" Xiao Qiang's call came from a distance.
"I will!" Tan Yue responded with a slight smile, and together with Xiaojia, mother and son, walked towards the jungle.
The jungle is overgrown with weeds. Because there are no seasons, it is extremely prosperous and soft when stepped on. But in this softness, there are countless dangers hidden. Who knows what kind of snakes and insects are hidden in the humus layer? ?
Whoosh! Tan Yue jumped onto the back of the female beast. The back full of sharp bone spurs was actually not suitable for riding. The slightly smoother part was only a little bit on the shoulder blade of the female beast's forelimb. Now the package was hung on it. , there is no place for Tan Yue anymore, but this does not prevent Tan Yue from standing on it, and the bulges on both sides just support his feet.
"Kakaka" The female beast responded a few times, knowing why Tan Yue jumped on her. Although she didn't feel very clear, her abdomen had been attacked many times since entering the jungle! However, the strong armor made the mother beast not care about this at all.
"Hiss, hiss!" Xiao Jia roared angrily, sweeping the tail of the chain, and a popping sound came out. Some snakes and insects of sufficient size were pierced by Bai Xiaojia one after another and then thrown into the distance.
The spindle-shaped bodies of the mother and son encountered little hindrance in the jungle. Their large eyes were covered with a transparent film, and they did not worry about being scratched by branches. However, Tan Yue had a harder time. He had to avoid the oncoming branches at all times, which was annoying. Yes, it still needs to be cut off or opened.
The temperature in the jungle is much higher than outside, and there are more various species than outside. At this moment, Tan Yue discovered many monsters, big and small. It was also the size and ferocious appearance of the female beast that made these monsters so popular. They didn't dare to step forward easily. They all hid behind obstacles, their cold eyes always fixed on the three of them. But these monsters didn't know that a small fur ball was cunningly hiding behind them. Sakon kept flashing, and at the same time, the camera on the small chest recorded all these monsters!
"There is no one who is not weird!" Tan Yue looked at the receiver on his palm and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "It's really a collection of monsters. None of the monsters here are normal!"
"Fangs Rabbit? With such a small body, what do you do with such long fangs Oh, it's quite powerful. How dare you show your teeth to an opponent who is so much bigger than you?" Tan Yue looked at the furball pass with interest. The scenes that come back are really a magical jungle. Various battles are happening almost every moment. Survival is a constant need in this jungle! Just now, there was a little guy the size of a rabbit. He must be very cute and furry, right? But when it lured a calf-sized monster to a place, a group of the same guys appeared. After a fight, several of the same kind of fanged rabbits were killed and injured, but the calf-sized monster was also lying on the ground. It fell to the ground, and immediately, these little guys with long fangs began to eat bloody food. In just a few minutes, this monster and their dead companions were torn into pieces. They dragged me deep into the jungle That's how the fangs are used!
The huge jungle was undulating and could not be seen clearly from the outside. It was not until entering that Tan Yue understood something. From the outside, it looked like a dense jungle. After entering, you will find that the terrain here is Very varied too!
"Stop!" Tan Yue sent out a thought, causing the female beast to stop. Just now, he suddenly discovered that the dense grass not far in front seemed to be undulating slightly?
Tan Yue slid down from the mother beast's body. With a wave of his hand and two dings, Tan Yue cut a branch as thick as a bowl into three sections. Tan Yue picked up the one-meter-long section and pointed at it just now. I dug over the slightly undulating area Wow! A few green water drops splashed up!
"Bah" An unknown animal popped up there, blowing out two streams of air from its nostrils. When its body floated up from below, Tan Yue saw that it turned out to be a huge crocodile! Well, it looks very similar to the crocodiles that live on the surface, but it is surprisingly big, more than ten meters long! Bigger than a killer whale!
"Hiss!" The appearance of the huge crocodile did not scare the mother beast at all. Tan Yue even saw a bit of disdain in the eyes of the mother beast. Sure enough, the big crocodile did not attack, but quietly Silently retreating, the female beast looked at Tan Yue and saw that Tan Yue had no intention of attacking. Then she slid the end of the chain, which clearly meant: "You know what's going on, get out!"
Tentatively, Tan Yue continued to move along the edge of the swamp, turned a corner, and then crossed the swamp. In the process, Tan Yue discovered several crocodiles one after another. They looked similar and were all very large, except that the female animal It was obviously not something they could hunt, so the process was quite peaceful.
"Ouch!" A huge roar came from the distance. In the turmoil, Tan Yue knew that there must be another fierce battle over there!
The team consisting of one person and three animals does not move very fast. After all, Tan Yue¡¯s purpose is not to cross the jungle but to explore and understand, so the busiest one is Maoqiu., this little guy is like entering the home field in the jungle. He is small, fast, and has sharp eyes. With Tan Yue's encouragement, the little guy collected all the information around him!
"Here, eat!" The team stopped in a small open space. Tan Yue took out a bag of special beef jerky from his small backpack. The little fur ball stood on Tan Yue's shoulder and accepted it with a smile. He went over and started to chew on it with a grin on his face. The special beef jerky was as tough as old cowhide. Hey! This little thing likes this one the most!
"Xiao A!" One piece of fur ball is enough, and the rest is naturally cheaper for Xiao A. As for the mother beast, she has just expressed that she is not hungry yet.
Xiao Jia used his dexterous tongue to roll the pieces of beef jerky from the palm of his master's hand into his mouth, chewing it comfortably and easily, with teeth that could chew even stones. Isn't it trivial to eat this kind of beef jerky?
??Took the camera off the fur ball, opened the back cover, replaced it with a new high-energy battery, and reinstalled it on the little guy. It is a very lightweight device, which is not a problem for the fur ball at all.
?? Continuous shooting for most of the day not only consumes electricity, but also consumes memory! In order to record more smoothly, Tan Yue also needs to copy the data in the receiver to a large-capacity hard drive to free up space to collect new things.
"Kakaka!" Xiao Jia called softly a few times, and stretched out his long and dexterous tongue in front of Tan Yue. There was a piece of beef jerky on top. The little guy saw that the owner had not eaten, and reminded Tan Yue!
"Oh, I'll just"
"Zhizhi" Tan Yue, who had finished the ingredients and wanted to make a meal, saw that Xiao Jia handed the end of the chain to Tan Yue in a flattering manner. There was a prey on it, which was smaller than a dog, but An animal much larger than a rabbit.
"It looks like a hyena!" Tan Yue looked at the dying little monster, reached out and took it out. After testing it with the monitor he carried with him, it showed that it was non-toxic and could be eaten. Tan Yue then washed it and peeled it off with a stick. The iron fork was threaded through, and soon the rich aroma of barbecue wafted over the small open space.
The taste is not bad, it tastes very similar to dog meat. Maybe it is some kind of dog? Tan Yue thought as he cut a strip of meat from the roasted hind leg with a saber and put it to his mouth to taste.
"Squeak!" Furball squatted on Xiao A's head and tore off a piece of meat very seriously. He didn't eat it himself, but handed it to Xiao A. That's all it was used for
"It seems you have to be careful when camping at night!" Tan Yue had already felt it. Just when this strange team was tasting delicious food, the aroma of barbecue had already attracted many people with malicious intentions. They were distributed In the depths of the jungle, because I don¡¯t know the depth of the team, I am hesitating and guessing
"Maoqiu, let's get to work!" Tan Yue squeezed Maoqiu's little head, and the hairball shot out. Tan Yue was not panicked at all. According to the results of earlier observations, the place where they were was just It's just on the outskirts of the jungle, and there are very few people who can be a threat!
"Hiss, hiss" Xiao Jia was tired of being disturbed by the other party while he was enjoying his delicious food. He swept his threatening eyes in all directions and let out a low growl from his huge mouth, warning those with bad intentions to get out of here as soon as possible!
The depth was almost reached. After Tan Yue sent the fur ball out, he started to prepare a small camp.
I collected some crooked and broken tree trunks, and easily built a platform in the jungle. Then I took out some things from the supply bag carried by the female animal, and after a little bit of assembly, I found various utensils, including hammocks, tents, There are recommended small tables and seats, etc., as well as a special laptop computer with signal transmission equipment, etc. The reason for setting up the platform is that Tan Yue does not want to work in a wet and dirty place. In addition, he also I don't want the mother beast and Xiao A to lie prone in such a place.
"Tan! Finally got in touch! Are you okay?" After setting up the communication equipment, the image of the professor appeared on the screen.
"Fortunately, we are on the periphery after all! Apart from encountering a few large crocodiles, we have not encountered any danger. It seems that the intimidation power of the mother beast is enough for now!" Tan Yue recorded what he had recorded. Teleporting back, while talking to the professor about the various situations he encountered.
"Ha, Maoqiu is really a big contributor!" Knowing that these materials were all taken hard by Maoqiu, such a large amount, and did not touch those monsters at all, Maoqiu's contribution is huge!
"Well, with the special beef jerky as motivation, the little guy is very motivated!" The vain little furball is most willing to be praised by others. When he is in the base, everyone will praise him a few times, and the little guy will be happy. I forgot my form, not to mention after I went back this time, when the time comes, I won¡¯t be praised for it!
"Where's the little guy?""I'm busy working! A battery won't come back until it's exhausted!" Tan Yue said with a smile, "When you come back later, you have to be careful and don't praise it so much that it faints." !¡±
"Don't worry, we will save our energy. When you come back, we will praise the little guy to the sky!" Everyone over there also remembered the little guy's past performance. No one expected that the little guy For being so vain, everyone praised him, and the little guy was so excited that he didn't rest for days and nights!
According to the time outside, it was already night at this time. Tan Yue had finished what he had to do and started to prepare to rest.
Spreading insect repellent around the area is very simple. With the mother beast and the little armor around, Tan Yue doesn't need any extra vigilance at all. He lies on the bed and looks through some things on the Internet. The special tent has a strong light-blocking ability. As long as the zipper is closed, the tent will enter darkness, which will not prevent Tan Yue from resting, let alone cause disorder of the biological clock.
The mother beast and Xiao A have completely adapted to the environment here, they are native species! On the other hand, the little guy doesn't like sleeping in the light. He has already gone to a corner of the tent and is sleeping soundly. He only takes up a small amount of space on the left and right. Tan Yue just lets the little guy do whatever he wants, and now he is using someone else's house! No matter how much, you should pamper her a little, right?
I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on with this space. In Tan Yue¡¯s opinion, it¡¯s all closed, right? But after entering the space, Tan Yue discovered that wind can also blow in this closed space! At first I wanted to discuss it, but later I got used to it. Even rainfall can form in space. As for wind, don¡¯t worry about it!
In the breeze, the rustling sound of branches and leaves kept coming. This kind of natural sound is not noisy. On the contrary, it can easily promote sleep. Surrounding Tan Yue's campsite is a tree species with huge leaves, with a trunk dozens of meters high. Like the leaves of corn leaves, the tree body is smooth, and it also emits a refreshing aroma. Tan Yue established the camp here largely because of this characteristic of aroma. The place is filled with the fragrance of trees, and there is no such thing as the one on the way. Disgusting stench
