Chapter 406

Adventures in Devil City

"This time we were divided into groups according to our research projects and tasks. Next time, we will be divided into groups in the same way, and then we will exchange venues."

Zhou Zeyuan gave everyone an explanation that the grouping must be based on certain rules and cannot be done randomly.

"But..." Huang Yun wanted to say something, but Liu Muxi had already pulled her.

This time, Liu Muxi and Huang Yun were assigned to the same group, and they mainly studied magnetic fields and physical properties.

The team led by Zhou Zeyuan mainly conducts research on sand analysis and medical treatment.

So the two sides have nothing in common, and if they were together, it would be a mess.

The best way is to separate and study separately.

Xiao Wu, as the leader of another team, took his men away after negotiating some matters with Zhou Zeyuan. Zhou Zeyuan led another group of people and marched towards the road on the left.

The road ahead was slowly opened up by the troops, and you have to rely on yourself to walk the road behind.

The fifteen people walked very quickly along the way and did not stop for too long in any useless places.

When they came out, Su Yunnuan gave everyone an anesthetic diluent.

So today no one is afraid of the bites of anesthesia bugs, making this trip less dangerous.

As for other dangers, Zhou Zeyuan also considered them. For all the ones he knew about, he had people prepared for them. As for those he didn't know about, he could only deal with them as they occurred.

This road was actually walked by Zhou Zeyuan, but he has walked many roads here. It looks different every day, and some very strange things will appear.

For example, now, there is a black grass growing on the stone not far ahead.

"Look, what is that?" The team member walking in front, a researcher who studies plants and surface work, was the first to see the black grass.

Generally, grass is green when it is in its growing period, and yellow when it dies.

But this is a black grass, and it is not yet known whether it is in the growing period or withered.

"Be careful, wear gloves." Zhou Zeyuan reminded.

"Well, let's go over and take a look." The two researchers who studied plants and the surface were very happy. They walked very quickly and stood beside the stone, carefully observing the black grass.

Su Yunnuan, Zhou Zeyuan and others also approached.

Everyone was watching attentively.

This grass is very strange. Its leaves seem to be very full. It should be grass in the growing period. The grass is very strong, but it is completely black, even the roots are black.

But there was only a little bit of grass inside the stone, and the rest grew on the surface of the stone.

The researcher put on gloves and gently fiddled with the grass roots with tweezers. He found that the grass roots had strong adhesion. Although they grew on the surface of the stone, they were very strong and did not loosen at all after a few fiddles.

“This should be blackwood grass. It is recorded in books. This grass grows specifically on rocks, but it is already very rare. This grass is picky about the rocks it grows on, which means that the rocks can provide it with some nutrients.

Other stones cannot grow. This is really amazing. We found this out by looking up information in the library.

I didn't expect to see it for real now. ”

The two researchers were very excited and took out their cameras to start filming.

"Do you want to take this back?" Zhou Zeyuan asked.

"Yes, yes, we want to take this stone back with us." There was a hint of excitement in the voices of the two researchers.

"Then let us help." Zhou Zeyuan asked the other researchers to come over, picked up the hammer and started hammering.

But he found that the stone was very hard and could not be moved at all when the hammer hit it.

Su Yunnuan knocked on it with a hammer and found that the density of the stone was very high. It was almost impossible to knock a piece off.

It's like knocking on an iron plate, it's futile.

"The density of this stone is very high. We can't knock it down unless we cut it." Su Yunnuan suggested.

"Then let's cut it."

One of the experimenters took out a handheld cutting machine and started cutting the stone.

Who knew that not long after the cutting started, a lot of black things suddenly appeared and approached them quickly.

Zhou Zeyuan and Su Yunnuan discovered it first, and Luo Xu also saw it. The three of them felt a chill in their hearts when they saw those black, wriggling things.

"Stop." Zhou Zeyuan looked at the stone with only a small opening, then looked at the densely packed black things, and asked the researcher to stop immediately.

"What's wrong?" The researchers stopped and looked at Zhou Zeyuan.

Zhou Zeyuan didn't say anything, but pointed around with his chin.

A few people looked around and saw those black, wriggling things, which gave them goose bumps all over their bodies.

"What is it?" they asked softly.

Zhou Zeyuan shook his head. He had been here many times and had never seen these things.

Of course he had never seen this grass before, which was really strange.

So he didn't know what those black things were.

Su Yunnuan took a step forward, but Zhou Zeyuan grabbed her.

"Don't go." Zhou Zeyuan pulled Su Yunnuan behind him, then he walked forward to confirm what it was.

But Su Yunnuan didn't let him go either.

"It's still so far, let's all climb up the rocks." Su Yunnuan thought about it and felt that it would be better to climb up the rocks first, see clearly what was on the other side, and then decide what to do.

"Yeah, I thought so too. Everyone, hurry up and climb onto the rocks." Zhou Zeyuan asked everyone to climb onto the rocks.

The rocks in the Devil City are all strangely shaped, but they are still easy to climb.

All fifteen people quickly climbed onto the stone.

Those black things crawled over quickly. They turned out to be some black bugs, which could not be seen from outside.

The shape is like a scorpion or a centipede, and it looks very scary.

"Don't move, don't make any sound." Zhou Zeyuan ordered softly.

Everyone was really scared when they saw so many black bugs.

It's so scary, it makes people feel itchy all over.

When the insects reached the feet, they all stopped. After a long pause, just when everyone thought they would climb up the rocks, the insects started fighting.

The insects coming from all directions actually started fighting.

When they saw these insects killing each other, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they would be safe once all the insects were killed.

But things were not what they expected, the dead insects gave off a very strange smell.

"Cover your mouth and nose and put on a gas mask." Zhou Zeyuan's face darkened.
