Chapter 209 Entering (33)
Until all the ice on its body melted, the smell of burnt food filled the space and did not dissipate for a long time. It seemed that the big cat was really electrocuted.
Seeing that the big cat really stopped moving, Brother Li immediately injected a powerful tranquilizer into the big cat...
After everyone waited in place for ten minutes and confirmed that the big cat really would not move, they gradually reduced the power of the power grid until it was disconnected. Finally, they used this power-storing power grid to wrap up the big cat.
Although the big cat was under control, lifting it and putting it into the car became a problem. The big cat was longer and heavier than an elephant. Such a large creature could be put into the car, but it was heavy. Even though their car had driven to the side of the big cat, it was still difficult to lift it into the car.
Seeing that a long time had been wasted, to be on the safe side, almost everyone came forward to help, regardless of whether there was room to pile up or not. Lao Gao and Huang Jinghe were no exception. They quickly grabbed the big cat's hind legs and pushed it forward, which finally allowed the big cat to be put on the car.
Otherwise, if the front half of the big cat can get in but the back half can't, the car will fall to the ground without any movement.
After the big cat was loaded onto the car, Brother Li locked the door, and their mission on this trip was completed.
Before leaving, Brother Zhang said to Brother Li, "Be careful on your journey."
Brother Li also replied: "The journey is safe."
Nothing is more important than peace.
…
After leaving here, they continued to head towards the hill where they were going to weed.
At this point, they were actually not far from that place. At only 10:40, their car stopped at the foot of a mountain.
After getting off the car, looking at the dense forest of dead branches in front of them, the four of them really didn't notice any difference between the dead branches here and those elsewhere.
Seeing that the four of them were acting nonchalant again, Brother Zhang immediately said, "Everything is the same outside. The danger lies inside the mountain. You four must be vigilant to prevent attacks from small animals. Let's move forward. I'll warn you in advance when we get to the same place."
Afterwards, they checked their equipment again and went up the mountain with Brother Zhang.
The mountain was littered with dead branches and broken wood, but perhaps because someone had been there before, the path they took was particularly smooth. However, after crawling for about half an hour, the bloodstains on the ground reminded them that this place was indeed very dangerous.
Brother Zhang frowned and ordered again: "Everyone, be sure to pay attention to safety. Report any movement immediately."
"yes."
…
But to be honest, there was really no movement around. After all, the four of them had drunk the spiritual spring water. With their sharp ears and eyes, they would definitely be the first to discover any movement. However, the difficult mountain road ahead made them a little more vigilant than before.
Aside from the sound of their footsteps, there was no other sound. After climbing this mountain road, they came across another extremely steep staircase. Lan Jin asked, "Brother Zhang, how long will it take us to get there?"
Brother Zhang said, "I'll show you when we get to the top. It'll take about an hour to get there after we get up here."
But this steep staircase was clearly not easy to walk up. It was not only long but also very steep, almost vertical. After the four of them walked up the stairs, Ling Jiang sighed, "Fortunately, I'm not afraid of heights."
"I'm not afraid of heights either."
"Neither of us is afraid of heights, otherwise why would we choose to live on the top floor?"
The four of them were chatting and laughing, and they really had no sense of crisis at all. Just as Brother Zhang, who was climbing on the top, was about to warn them again, Lan Jin said vigilantly, "Something is coming."
"What is that?" Brother Zhang immediately looked around, but he didn't see anything. Just when he wanted to ask, a trace of the thing Lan Jin mentioned appeared.
Brother Zhang sighed inwardly, in fact, these people are quite vigilant, it would be better if they stopped talking nonsense.
However, the thing coming towards them was exactly the mutant snake they had seen in the base before. The red crystal on the top of its head was particularly dazzling, and Lao Gao immediately became interested.
These snakes moved extremely fast, and Lao Gao immediately used his fire ability towards them. As soon as the fire came out, the human snakes around them fell down immediately.
As soon as this group of snakes fell, the next group of people immediately replaced them. However, compared with the multi-legged insects, Lan Jin could accept snakes more. He was not too scared and immediately used his lightning ability to electrocute the next group of snakes, making them straighten their bodies and roll down the steep mountain wall together with Lao Gao's burnt snake.
Lao Gao looked regretful and said, "Oh, why did he go down? I was planning to deduct the crystal."
Brother Zhang twitched his lips and said, "No one comes here. If it's still there, we can pick it up on our way back. Snakes will rot, but crystals won't. Besides, snakes won't rot in this weather."
"Okay."
…
There were not many snakes running towards them, and after they were simply dealt with, they continued to climb up the mountain.
After they all reached the top of the mountain, Brother Zhang pointed to a patch of lush green grass in a deep pit not far away and said, "That's the grass we need to remove. But before we do that, let's go in and see if there are any members of our team there."
Compared to burning the grass, the task of finding team members is clearly more difficult.
Lao Gao said, "If they had encountered that big cat on the road, they would not have stepped into this dangerous grassland since they were already injured."
"That's logical, but what if they were forced in? What if there were compelling reasons? Regardless, the last location I received is not far from the entrance to this meadow. Let's go take a look. If anything seems amiss, we can retreat immediately."
But you must go in, otherwise it would be a waste of time.
The four of them naturally had no objections, "Okay, Brother Zhang, we will listen to you."
…
Climbing up the steep cliff with heavy loads was really tiring, so Brother Zhang asked everyone to rest for a while before letting them set off again.
The road down the mountain also has traces of human intervention, and it is obviously much easier to walk on than the road up the mountain.
Brother Zhang explained, "Actually, this area used to be a tourist destination, and that part was even a lake. The lake wasn't deep, though. If it weren't for the rainy season, we'd often see it. But it was clearly a place where nothing grew before. I don't know why so many mutant plants grew there after the extreme cold."
Lao Gao asked with great interest, "Oh, there was nothing there before, only after the apocalypse. Could it be that someone planted it there on purpose? Could it be that people live here?"
