A dragon lizard nearly ten meters long. Apart from the head for the Roman warriors to command and ride, only the spine protrusion without barbs in the middle of the back could be placed on two saddles sewn with thick leather.
Moreover, the two samurai leaders, one and the other, consciously assumed the responsibility of opening the way and breaking the rear guard, and no leather saddles could be placed on the backs of the beasts. In this way, the first group of more than 50 people from the Chinese delegation to explore the jungle only had a total of less than 50 people. If you reach thirty, you can ride on the back of a dragon lizard.
Fortunately, the remaining true successors of each sect who are responsible for protection have their own miraculous skills, such as Taoist swordsmanship and talismans;
The Buddhist mudra is used to summon the Dharma protector and use the Dharma weapon;
The incarnation of witchcraft and the urging of insects;
The Muslim mullahs call on gods and spirits, and walking through the dense forest is a trivial matter.
Guo Caiying quickly walked to the dragon lizard closest to her, stepped on the raised scales and climbed onto the saddle lightly. She looked around and saw all kinds of strange phenomena displayed like a kaleidoscope in broad daylight, and she couldn't help but sigh. In his tone, he muttered: "It's so unscientific.
No matter how many times I see it, I still feel that this scene is unreal. "
"Ms. Guo, no matter what you think is true or not, this is the reality of this era." Zhang Lisheng, riding on the leather saddle behind the girl, curled his lips and said: "It doesn't matter whether it is scientific or not. What matters is that you have so many superpowers. If we are protected by our companions, we will be very safe.¡±
Seeing that the young man seemed content with the role he was playing, Guo Caiying's slightly depressed mood suddenly felt relieved, and she couldn't help but smile and glare at Zhang Lisheng.
She realized that it was just a small move and did not reveal any flaws. But they don't understand that there is a proverb, "Love and a cold cannot be hidden." Not far away, Liu Yiteng, who had been quietly paying attention to Guo Caiying's every move, saw the expression on her face that was completely different from usual. Feeling wrinkled up tightly.
And more than thirty meters to the right of Liu Yiteng, a beautiful young woman with slightly dark skin, her toes looked like she was standing on tiptoes like a ballet dancer, but were actually half an inch off the ground, was also looking at Zhang Lisheng and Guo Caiying. There was a vague sad and gloomy look on his face.
"Junior Sister Tao. When we enter the forest later, you and Xiang Zhou will be guarding Director Guo." Next to the woman, there was a young man who was also standing in the air, with a face as bright as a crown, and did not notice anything strange about her. He whispered softly: "You have the 'Yingzhou Secret Realm' with you. Senior Sister Xiangzhou specializes in killing techniques. If there is an accident, you will focus on defense, while Senior Sister Xiangzhou will"
The other side of the man. A pretty and heroic woman interrupted him impatiently, "Stop being verbose, Lianbao, since this 'outing' is under your command, Lulu and I have our own sense of proportion, so just give the order honestly." That¡¯s it, what are you talking about?¡±
The young woman with slightly darker skin also covered up the strange color between her eyebrows and said: "Senior Brother Duan, just give the order."
"It's true that I'm too talkative." Duan Lianbao, who was no longer childish as before, smiled slightly and stopped talking. Then, with Ao Fanluo's loud shout, "Let's go.", he and everyone flew into the primitive jungle. .
The fertile soil, warm climate, and abundant rain have given birth to countless creatures under the nourishment of a long time. They are hidden among the dark giant trees with rhizomes extending protrudingly on the ground and vines densely spread like spider webs in mid-air.
The lizard dragon domesticated by the Roman warriors has a slender body and a soft frame. It looks very big, but it seems effortless to move through the rain forest.
Zhang Lisheng, who was sitting on the back of a lizard and walking freely in the forest, experienced the astonishing speed of the beasts from another world. He looked at the endless canopy of trees above his head that blocked the sky and the sun. He unconsciously recalled the past while pretending to be happy. Guo Caiying asked: "Miss Guo, the search is so sloppy, what are we looking for?" "
¡°We are looking for ancient ruins of rainforest civilization or ruins of indigenous tribes of a certain scale, so don¡¯t worry, we won¡¯t miss them no matter how fast we walk.¡± Guo Caiying, who was bouncing up and down like a horse, replied.
"Isn't it common sense to explore large-scale ruins or ruins where a large group of natives once lived?" The young man thought for a moment and said.
"Dr. Fu, this is the Amazon. It rains all year round. The characteristics of plain civilizations that live by rivers are not applicable here." Liu Yiteng, who was riding on a 'big lizard' that was moving parallel to the dragon lizard Guo Caiying was sitting on, He spoke first using his smattering of knowledge.
"Oh, sir, there is a misunderstanding in your point of view. What we are looking for are not relics or ruins, but large-scale relics or ruins." Zhang Lisheng shrugged and retorted: "The farming civilization in the plains settled on rivers for water sources. Things like the Amazon Jungle civilization does not need to worry about water sources and lives by rivers.
But the big tribes in the rain forest areIn addition, because they rely on gathering and hunting to maintain a large population, they must have a stable supply of food. The simplest source of food in the Amazon is fishing, so the large ruins here must be next to large rivers and lakes. . "
"Dr. Xu, is Dr. Fu's judgment reasonable?" Guo Caiying's eyes lit up and she shouted in the distance. A person on the back of the dragon lizard had a bumpy brow and a pale face. She looked to be around thirty years old. The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks asked.
¡°Acridine, acridine, Guo, what did you say, Director Guo?¡± the man replied as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"Dr. Fu just put forward a theory, saying that Amazon's large" Guo Caiying had to repeat what Zhang Lisheng said loudly, which inevitably attracted the attention of many people in the team.
After listening to Guo Caiying's words, the man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was stunned for a while, his face turned red, but he said forcefully: "I have thought about what Dr. Fu said.
But the Amazon river has changed its course many times since ancient times. If you really want to gain something, it is better to use the dragnet search we use now. "
Zhang Lisheng laughed and said: "Oh, Dr. Xu, as a scientist, the most important quality is divergent thinking.
Don¡¯t you know that the more rainy the jungle is, the more traceable the changes in the river course will be? A naturalist with rich experience and knowledge reserves only needs to"
"Okay, Dr. Fu, this time we will conduct the search according to the original plan. If we don't gain anything, we will try your idea next time we make a plan." Guo Caiying suddenly interrupted the young man's words and ended the dispute with a final word. , but at this time, many people's impression of the 'foreign aid' played by Zhang Lisheng who joined inexplicably has changed unknowingly.
The dense forest is dark and quiet. Only through the little bits of sunlight passing through the gaps between the lush leaves and vines can ordinary people get a glimpse of the beautiful scenery of the Amazon.
If you are trekking on foot, you have to be energetic. But riding on the back of a lizard makes people easily sleepy and tired. After a few hours, most of the people in the exploration team, except for the sect protector, were drowsy. stand up.
¡°However, Guo Caiying, who was riding with her lover and had just undergone the transformation of her life through a golden elixir transplant, was not tired at all.
Although in order to conceal Zhang Lisheng's identity, she did not chat with the young man, but from time to time she could not hide her smile and talked a few words, and even secretly talked about some sensitive topics with lip language. "Li Sheng, when I take a break tonight, I will find a way to ask those researchers from the Religious Affairs Bureau to help you find Tiantai Mountain.
Well, I think the so-called ¡®secret realm¡¯, which is an incomplete miniature ¡®different world¡¯, will definitely have signs when it appears.
¡°By the way, I recalled it carefully, and I seem to have seen a message in that document about a sect obtaining a ¡®secret realm¡¯. They may have a special way to help you, so what excuse should I make"
In the darkness, looking at Guo Caiying's thoughtful expression, Zhang Lisheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew that the girl didn't understand lip language, so he quietly wrote on Guo Caiying's back with his hand, "Senior, don't be so anxious, look for it." Tiantai Mountain is just a way for me to avoid trouble and look for something to do. It doesn¡¯t matter if I can¡¯t find it.¡±
"How could it not matter? There is a place where Nuwa's legacy is hidden. I have a hunch that finding it will be of great use to you." The girl turned her head and mouthed.
The two of them were talking intermittently and silently, not noticing the passage of time at all. It was not until the leader of the Roman warriors shouted, "Stop." in an open woodland that they realized that the sunlight in the gap between the canopies above their heads had turned into moonlight.
"Director Guo, it seems that you are unlucky today, and you are destined to gain nothing." After walking hundreds of kilometers in one day, there was not even a shadow of an abandoned native tribe. Aofanluo said with a wry smile: "It's been a long day's journey. , the lizard must hunt and rest, can we camp here?"
"Okay, we'll camp here." Knowing that not only the lizards, but also the administrative officials and scientists in his team had reached their physical limit, Guo Caiying nodded and jumped off the back of the beast.
When the others heard the leader's words, they cheered first, then wailed and climbed down from the lizard, rubbing their legs and stretching their feet, and some even collapsed on the forest floor as soon as they touched the ground.
When Guo Caiying saw the miserable performance of her subordinates, she realized that she was in high spirits, and her normal appearance was really different. She hurriedly shook her waist in a pretentious manner, and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Then Captain Ovanluo, Mandy The two Cavalry Commanders will take your soldiers to feed the lizards, and then guard the outermost perimeter.
Is there anyone else? Director Duan, please tell meAfter Gong' sacrifice came out, Director Li, Director Qian, and Director Aimaiti set up a formation and set up a second cordon. "
"As you wish, noble lady." Aofanluo bowed deeply and led the alien warriors into the dense forest and disappeared. The other true successors of the Chinese sect whose names were mentioned by Guo Caiying also hurriedly responded and became busy. . (To be continued)
