Chapter 104 A hidden safety zone? !
Until the fifth month, Lu Yuan pushed aside the bushes and walked up the last high slope.
He suddenly realized that he had walked out of that lush and unimaginable primeval forest.
This is the last high slope, and there is a brand new world in the distance!
The continuous arid land comes into view, which is both rough and soft. The grand terrain, sparse grasslands and rugged strange rocks present a shocking natural force.
Only a small amount of green grows tenaciously in the arid land. The most amazing thing is the continuous flowers, colorful and colorful, decorating the bottom of the hillside into a gorgeous beautiful scenery.
At first glance, the rustling flowers were almost hundreds of kilometers long, spreading to the end of the horizon.
At the junction of forests and arid land, there is a vertical waterfall hanging down, nearly 300 meters wide, with a momentum like a galloping horse, charging into battle, and chanting slogans from a hundred thousand parades.
The rumbling sound made the eardrum hurt.
At this moment, the clouds in the sky suddenly cracked open, and the dark clouds that were originally about to rain suddenly opened up, revealing the clear blue sky, and the sunlight suddenly sprinkled.
The water vapor on the flowers shines under the sunlight!
The entire sea of ??flowers seemed to be alive!
Cloudy day, in the blink of an eye, turned into a sunny day!
Lu Yuan was shocked by this "shady and sunny" scene. Perhaps on earth, this magnificent scene with flowers stretching for hundreds of kilometers will never be seen.
"Ah-" He couldn''t help but shout, the sound spread far and far.
Even the old cat was a little shocked and tried to shout a few words - this guy always thought about elegance and always had his identity in mind.
But who doesn’t like spectacular scenes?
"Hey—I, Lao Lu, are here for a trip!"
“Aowu—”
Lu Yuan was preparing to rest here for a few days, and after five months of running around, he was not so tired. But most of the journeys are boring and mentally stressful, and there are bugs everywhere, which makes him very irritable.
The old wolf is also deficient in energy and needs to rest for a few days.
Lu Yuan ran downstream of the giant waterfall and took a cold shower. Under the erosion of the river, his mental fatigue disappeared.
The "rumbling" waterfall sounds like a symphony of nature. Large groups of water droplets jumped up in the air, like countless pearls falling into the jade plate, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
Lao Lang didn''t like taking a bath as usual, but under Lu Yuan''s mandatory request, he still lay in the water in ecstasy and washed his body.
"Have you noticed a big problem?" The old cat naturally didn''t need to rinse itself. It jumped onto a big rock and quietly looked at the winding river.
"What''s the matter?" After taking a shower, Lu Yuan felt refreshed. He shaved his beard with a knife and trimmed his hair like a mountain of apes.
The old cat stretched out his claws: "Look at this big river, it is magnificent and flows into the distance. But is there a kind of feeling that it lacks a long section?"
"Ah?" Lu Yuan didn''t understand what Lao Mao was saying for a while.
He looked at it for a long time and felt a little strange.
The trajectory of the river is not very natural.
Especially the color of the river water has undergone subtle changes.
The river water upstream is quite clear, and even if you drink it directly, there is no problem.
There was a section of river in the middle. I don’t know what happened, but the color suddenly changed subtly... It was not very obvious, but it really existed.
"What do you care about this? Do you want me to build a boat and go along the river to your destination?"
Lu Yuan has also thought about the method of driving a ship.
After all, he was really fed up with mosquitoes in the forest, and it was still very tempting to not be bitten.
But the problem is that it will take at least several days to build the simplest bamboo raft. And he doesn''t have a map of the river, so God knows whether the river will deviate from the route after dozens of kilometers...
So I can only give up.
"No, I mean... there may be something hidden here, what you think is a ''safe area''!" The old cat jumped off the stone, used his claws to draw a circle on the sand, and drew a river.
"You think, part of the space here may be hidden, so there is a weird sign of ''a missing a part of the river''."
"Of course I just guess casually, not fidelity."
The old cat scratched his head very badly, making a "crying" sound, and his eyes dripped towards Lu Yuan''s face.
It said indifferently: "Even if there is a safe area here, what does it have to do with you? You should set off quickly!"
Lu Yuan''s face changed slightly, and his heart beat faster.
Turning around and looking at the river, the more I look at the old cat''s words, the more I feel that the old cat''s words make sense.
The "safety zone" is indeed hidden, just like invisibility.
This conclusion was given by many scientists of the Meda civilization.
Because in the long-term observation, no animal has come into contact with the protective light curtain of the "safe area"!
This is obviously abnormal.
From the perspective of probability, there will always be one or two rabbits, mice, birds, and insects that exist everywhere, hit the light curtain and then disappear.
Actually... it''s not.
Therefore, experts from the Meda civilization speculate that the safe zone is likely to be hidden in the Pangu continent through some spatial mechanism.
Ordinary creatures cannot get close to them at all!
The civilization in the safe zone, with millions or tens of millions of people, always needs water and air, and some external resources can be accessed in "some way", so there is a situation where "there is one piece of the river" and "the river changes color".
“So that’s it…”
When Lu Yuan thought of this, he rubbed his hands and felt warm.
Maybe through aliens, can we contact humans?
"Old cat, you can see this." He patted the fat cat.
The old cat "crystalked", shook his head and was very proud: "There is only 50% chance. I advise you not to be self-indulgent and invest too much effort first."
"Maybe people are too lazy to pay attention to you."
What is more obvious is that unknown civilizations cannot cancel the safe zone just because Lu Yuan is outside...
There is an alien outside, so he will directly cancel the light screen? What a big heart.
Even a normal civilization would not do this.
This fact made Lu Yuan scratch his head and feel a little impatient.
He has no superpowers and can cross the "safety zone" and can only expect the other party to take the initiative to communicate.
Take a deep breath, put on your backpack, and first measure the temperature upstream.
Go to the lower reaches of the river.
"The water temperature has a temperature difference of 1-2 degrees..."
In the area where the color of the river changes subtly, I wandered for a while, but I couldn''t see any of them.
"If there is really a safe area hidden here, the creatures inside will definitely see me..."
Lu Yuan had a sudden inspiration and came up with a good idea.
He got into the tent, took the large metal ball out of the storage space, and faced the river.
The metal ball occupies 1 cubic meter of storage space. Although it is completely scrapped, it still carries it with you. There are many precision parts inside, which Lao Mao needs.
Isn’t it just coming in handy now? "If the other party also has a contactor, you will definitely be curious when you see this one in my hand... and then take the initiative to contact me with the skills of God."
"Humans all have divine skills, and this civilization cannot be without it."
"I can use the liaison in the other party''s hand to contact humans. Then help both sides to establish diplomatic relations! Perfect!" Lu Yuan couldn''t help but feel a little excited about his wit.
Of course, he still kept a hand in the code of human civilization, and did not write it directly on the ground.
Even if a liaison cannot kill humans, it is not a good thing to rashly expose human information.
He has to first examine how this unknown civilization is.
"Lu Yuan, I don''t object to your communication..."
"But I need to remind you that the time flow rate in the safe zone is different from ours, and their reaction must be very slow." When Lao Mao saw Lu Yuan''s expectant look, he couldn''t help but pour cold water. He has always been a rational spokesperson. "Unless you are planning to stay here for several years, they may react."
"Second, I think there may be some risks in this place."
"Even in drought land, there is a river that flows endlessly. There are too few wild animals nearby... especially the number of large organisms is far below the average."
Lu Yuan hummed without refuting.
He admitted that Lao Mao was right, but I was unhappy if you looked very pretentious.
"It''s impossible to have another [demon]."
"The demon is already a disaster of the upper-level level... Most disasters should be much weaker than the demon, otherwise the world will not be able to survive." To be honest, it has never told lies.
"Then I''m afraid of a hammer... I''ll kill the monster and complete a civilization milestone."
Old cat:...
Lu Yuan is actually in a good mood and bragging.
Disasters are disasters after all.
No matter how small the vision falls on one''s head, it is a mountain.
And this moment is no longer the first year of the Pangu era.
It is now the fifth year and the sixth month.
But there is no need to worry too much.
Pangu Continent is very large, and supernatural phenomena are endless. It is impossible for him to take a long way just because there are fewer animals here, otherwise he would not be able to go to the sky city even if he was in the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month.
The fire rose, boiled water, cooked food, looked around, and carefully checked the surrounding environment with the eyes of the pioneer.
[Zanghua: An ordinary drought-resistant plant, which contains alkaloids that are toxic, so no animals are willing to eat it. Its flowers are a natural red pigment. 】
[Porcelain: an ordinary drought-resistant plant, non-toxic and rich in vitamins. There is more cellulose, so you can''t digest it. 】
[Mutation·Purslane: A common wild vegetable that can be mixed in cold or stir-fried. It can provide the human body with nutrients such as protein, thionine and riboflavin. 】
Well, for a while, I didn’t see any strange phenomena, but instead saw a lot of delicious wild vegetables.
"Old cat, go and work!"
The old cat who doesn''t have to eat goes to collect wild vegetables without any desire.
Lu Yuan jumped into the river again, and used a spear to fork a few fish in the river, and today the protein was found.
His face was filled with rich expressions. He hadn''t had a big meal for a long time, so he might as well have a good meal.
So I took out a small iron pot from my backpack, put a little oil, kneaded a ball of flour, and made a few hand-grabbing cakes. His current skills are indeed quite good. The layer of the cake in his hand is like thin paper. If you take a bite, you will be able to stop.
Another pot of fish soup was stewed. After changing the fresh small fish, it was cooked with wild vegetables. The soup was thick and the fish was chewy.
"I traveled thousands of kilometers long just to come here to eat a bite of fish."
"Comrade-in-arms, what does fish soup taste like?" Lao Mao asked.
"tasty."
"Crack"!
The old cat kept scratching and started to have an AI failure again, so Lu Yuan gave it a bowl. Even if it couldn''t eat it, the AI ??failure magically disappeared - I have to admit that this guy is really a bit ill.
Several groundhogs smelled the fragrance of the dough and quietly crawled over.
These stupid guys stared at each other, getting closer and closer, without knowing at all.
Lu Yuan gave them a few pieces of bread.
Their claws are very flexible, just like human fingers. They grab the dough and stuff them into their mouths, and then make a "squeaking" sound.
"It turns out that your voice is not a ''ah'' sound, self-media is lying to people." Lu Yuan likes to feed small animals very much, although these guys may be infected with diseases.
The old wolf looked at the groundhog after he had eaten his fill and fought with one stern look. Now it is a dog and has no interest in hunting these small animals.
"You guys watch outside, I''ll take a break."
Lu Yuan returned to his tent, and he hadn''t taken a nap for a long time.
Put on the "Leorick''s Mask", this thing is burned out by the fire, and it can still greatly amplify your perception.
In a hazy state, it seemed as if there was a third eye that grew out of the back of the head.
This eye is a highly myopic eye, but it can greatly increase the sixth sense.
Because there are endless dangers in Pangu Continent, even when he sleeps, he always wears a mask.
Gradually, Lu Yuan fell asleep. For some reason, he fell into a state like a Qingming dream.
His consciousness seemed to be separated from his body, floating above the Pangu Continent, looking at the almost infinite vast world.
Not far away, there was a rainbow-like light curtain blocking his progress... Maybe it was the so-called safe area?
Lu Yuan couldn''t help but stretch out his feet and touched the rainbow.
There was no response, and he entered the safe area.
It''s like entering a "bubble".
Inside are buildings of different civilizations, with octave-shaped buildings standing on the surface.
On the city square, there are statues of lizard-like creatures standing.
On the edge of the city are large areas of farmland, with unknown plants planted.
Passing through the river in the middle of the city, there is endless flow. From this perspective, you will find that this river is complete.
No one.
There is no one, all of them are silent dead objects.
"Is this... a dream?"
"It''s really something you think about every day and dream about every night..."
