Chapter 45 Cave Giant Wood
This depression is only about 100 meters. Yue Zun rolled forward, and soon reached the edge of the depression, on the opposite side of the underground dark river.
Yue Zun has seen clearly that there is a gravel beach bordering the depression. After about 50 meters, he turned to the left. I don't know what's going inside. It is estimated that the turtle's home should be just around the corner of this gravel beach.
At this time, the big turtle had turned its children back, one or three small rows, with fierce eyes, sharp teeth in its mouth, and aggressively chased Yue Zun.
Yue Zun began to get into trouble again. The reason why I was able to escape temporarily was to thank this muddy depression. If it hadn't been for occupying the land and limiting the speed of the turtle family, how could I escape?
If you leave this depression and go to the gravel beach at this time, the turtle family will definitely follow. Although I haven't seen them on the shore at a normal speed, I think they should be able to run faster than myself. After all, when the big turtle swims in the water, its speed is as high as 80 miles per hour. After a distance, it should be no problem to catch up with itself.
What's more, the old nest of the turtle family must be near here. Yue Zun was not sure whether he would run into the old nest of the big turtle by running down the gravel beach. It is not certain that there are other turtles left in the old nest of the big turtle. If there are any, wouldn't they throw themselves into the net?
The most important thing is whether it is a dead end after this gravel beach. If you can go somewhere else, you can take a risk if you have no choice. But in case, after running to the top, there is no way out. Under the pursuit and obstruction of the big turtle family, there is only one way to die.
You can also choose to bypass the turtle family, go back into the water, and escape from the waterway. However, Yue Zun believes that it is the stupidest way and is undesirable. Don't say that even if you swim fast, just look at the swimming speed of the big turtle, it's useless to come...
In addition, there is another option that is not a choice. For the time being, he did not go to the gravel beach and continued to stay in this depression. With the convenience of the land, he rolled in the mud and continued to deal with the big turtle family for a while. However, this is just a way to treat the symptoms but not the root causes. It may be feasible to delay some time and do nothing to escape the current crisis.
The situation is dangerous. Although Yue Zun is thinking about electricity, it is actually outside, but it is just a moment of hesitation. Knowing that time is precious and can't stand the waste, he has a choice in an instant. And run from the gravel beach first. If you really can't run away, or if there is a desperate road ahead, then fight to the death with the big turtle family behind you.
Thinking of this, Yue Zun took out the Swiss army knife pinned to his little feet and held it tightly to increase his courage. Don't underestimate this small knife. It has many functions, such as bottle openers, toothpicks, keychains, scissors and so on. It is really a must-have for home travel.
If you really work hard with the turtle family, you can imagine the effect. But it doesn't prevent Yue Zun from taking it to embolden himself. Anyway, holding the murder weapon in hand, even if it is not very powerful, can always give people more confidence than with bare hands, right?
Yue Zun judged the speed of himself and the big turtle behind him and made sure that if he ran with all his strength, at the corner of the end of the gravel beach, the big turtle family should not be able to leave the depression. I hope there will be a way to escape after that corner, otherwise I really can't imagine what the consequences will be.
With hope and uneasiness, Yue Zun stood up and ran forward as fast as he could. The situation is very dangerous, and there is no way to care about your feet when running. Although he wears sneakers with thick soles, the soles of his feet are still stabbed by sharp gravel from time to time. Yue Zun doubted whether the soles have been pierced.
It's only 50 meters, and it takes about 10 seconds to run. Before reaching the corner, Yue Zun looked back and found that the previous judgment was basically correct. The big turtle has not left the depression, but it is not far from the edge of the depression. It is estimated that it will take a few seconds to climb the gravel beach.
Seeing that the turtle was about to break away from the bondage of the depression, Yue Zun, who was not sure about the normal land speed of the turtle, felt a little urgent. He couldn't help but increase his feet and ran a little faster. After a few steps, he finally ran to the corner and turned to see the scene ahead.
In front of you is an empty cave. The height of the cave is at least 100 meters, and the radius is even wider. I'm afraid it is as big as 1,000 meters. Because the lighting in the belly of the mountain depends on the purple moss growing on the stone wall, the volume of the cave is large, and the wall of the cave is far away, and the light in the center of the cave is getting darker and dim.
Yue Zun used his eyesight to see that there seemed to be a towering tree in the center of the cave. The main pole was thick, the branches were luxuriant, and the umbrella-shaped crown reached the top of the cave, and then unfolded around, for fear that it would not cover hundreds of meters.
Seeing this, Yue Zun's surprise was beyond resurable. It is reasonable to be dark and wet in the belly of the mountain with moss. But how does such a big tree grow?
Needless to say, trees need photosynthesis to survive, but the only light source in this cave is the faint fluorescence emitted by those purple moss. It is said that it can't meet the survival needs of a small grass, let alone such a towering tree.
No, Yue Zun was quickly relieved and no longer care about this problem. Have you forgotten where you are? The place where the spirit of war is inherited. The inheritance of the spirit of war itself is a mysterious thing. What can we expect to encounter with common sense in the place of inheritance?
Moreover, for myself in trouble, these are trivial things, and there is really no need to delve into them. At present, the most important thing is that I have a chance to be saved! As long as you can run under the tree and climb up to the tree before the strange turtle family catch up with it, you will be safe. If you kill Yue Zun, you won't believe that the turtle can still climb the tree.
As for the fact that if the strange turtle family stayed under the tree after arriving at the tree, Yue Zun also thought of it. However, the big turtle family is in a hurry. It's good to find a place to take shelter. At worst, it will be safe. Let's find a way slowly.
Fighting bravery, we are not opponents, I admit it. However, as long as you give some time to think about it, you should not lose to a few bastards.
I have made up my mind. I don't think much anymore, but I just run wildly. At this time, there were a few high and low roars behind them. It was thought that the turtle family had got rid of the shackles of the depression and went up to the gravel beach. These roars were exactly what they were venting their unwillingness. We have to seize the time. Don't be caught up and lost your life when you have seen the hope of life. That's really devastating.
500 meters away is the interval between life and death. If you can run these 500 meters before the turtle catches up, you will have to live. On the contrary, die! Fortunately, here, the feet are no longer made of gravel, but mud mixed with sand and stone. Finally, Yue Zun can exert his speed to the maximum and run to the big tree at a speed close to the sprint world champion.
Behind him, the big turtle family chased fiercely. Fortunately, their flat limbs are really not suitable for moving on land, and the chasing speed is surprisingly low, which is slightly faster than Yue Zun's running speed at this time.
Running close, Yue Zun can see clearly that the big tree in the center of the cave looks very much like a camphor tree. The trunk is gray-brown, with obvious longitudinal cracks, which are very easy to identify; there are fine deep groove longitudinal cracks on the bark; the leaves are alternate, oval, and the top is short or near the tail tip. What surprised Yue Zun more was that there seemed to be a faint camphor-like fragrance from this big tree.
When he arrived at the tree, Yue Zun began to worry again. The trunk of the big tree in front of us is nearly five meters thick, and human beings can't hug it at all. It is impossible to use the most common method of climbing trees to clamp the trunk with their legs, and then pull up the body with both hands. Moreover, because the tree is tall, almost all branches grow in the upper part of the trunk. Under the trunk, it is not until more than ten meters that the branches grow and can be climbed.
I looked back again and took a look. At this time, several big turtles behind me were only about 100 meters away from me. No matter how hesitating he was, he was caught up by them in ten seconds. Looking at the Swiss army knife in his hand, Yue Zun had a decision in his heart.
Take out the main knife, wave your right hand, and stab the knife into the tree to borrow strength. The five fingers of the left hand are bent into claws and deeply buckled into the cracks above the trunk. The tips of the legs and feet try to pick up the cracks of the trunk to help balance.
In this way, Yue Zun climbed up little by little at a fairly fast speed. Whenever the Swiss army knife is pulled out and re-pierced into the slightly higher tree, the weight of the whole body is basically borne by the slender five fingers of the left hand. At this time, the pain from the nail is the strongest. The ten fingers are connected to the heart, and the pain can be imagined.
It didn't take long for Yue Zun to feel that his five nails were about to fall off. In fact, he also oozed red blood. Yue Zun changed his left hand with his right hand and continued the difficult and painful movement. His eyes looked at the branches ten meters above, and his eyes were firm. As long as he could climb there, he could take a little rest.
About ten seconds is fleeting. The big turtle has come under the tree with three small turtles. Although the turtle is huge, it is only a little more than three meters tall, and the height that can be reached by stretching its neck will not exceed four meters.
At this time, Yue Zun has climbed up about five meters. As long as he can hold on and not fall, the turtle is helpless for him. Seeing that he had found it hard and climbing the food for the children, the turtle's heart was full of anger and unwillingness. His eyes stared at Yue Zun, who was climbing with boundless resentment, raised his neck and roared again!
For good, Yue Zun is ready for the roar of the turtle. If you are as shocked as you did when you first smell it before, you may fall from the tree.
However, although Yue Zun seemed to be safe at this time, his ten fingers had already been painful and trembling violently. He is not sure whether he can insist on climbing five meters. After all, life or death, do your best, and listen to fate...
