Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 497 Exploring Anomalies (4900 words)

After dark, the lush jungle is extremely dark, and there is basically no light.

Even though Qin Fu ate blue-grade red berries and gained night vision ability, he still couldn't clearly grasp the situation on the ground.

Just like turning on the night vision device at night, the perception of color will be much worse.

So, when he noticed that the ground under his feet had turned red, he was already half-sinked in the mud.

But before he could say anything, he was completely immersed in it and disappeared without a trace.

"What happened? Qin Fu?"

After Xu Xin heard Qin Fu's exclamation that stopped abruptly, her heart tightened immediately.

As a result, no matter how he called, there was still no response from the other side.

Even after more than ten seconds, the call that was still connected suddenly stopped.

Calling again, it is already in a state of being unable to communicate.

this……

Xu Xin narrowed her eyes.

Over there, what happened?

Qin Fu, he...

problem occurs?

He immediately checked the name on the private message.

Fortunately, Qin Fu's name is not ashes, which means he is not dead.

But his name has faded like other survivors far away from here.

In other words, it is indeed impossible to establish contact with him now.

There he...

what happened?

Xu Xin looked at the map.

On the map, the spot of light that originally represented him has disappeared.

Disappeared without a trace.

Within the range of tens of kilometers around his tree house, only his tree house is still distributed with green light spots representing his companions.

Xu Xin looked out the window, the direction where Qin Fu disappeared.

Over there, about 800 meters away from his tree house.

Not too far.

There is real danger over there!

... He is going to see the place where Qin Fu disappeared!

According to Qin Fu, there is likely to be a solution to this insect nest over there.

Moreover, he couldn't just ignore the death of his subordinates, and he was still so close to the tree house.

"Silver King, Mimi, and Ah Fu, you should go out and take a look around. You have been staying in the tree house, and you are afraid that you will get rusty." Xu Xin stood up and faced the three dogs lying in the corner. , Looking at the Three Beasts who seemed not to move at all.

"Oh..." Yin Wang stood up slowly and walked over.

Ah Fu also followed suit.

Mimi lay on the ground without moving, just looked up.

Mimi was supposed to like going out the most, but now it seems that she doesn't want to go out at all.

After the scorching heat came, these guys looked like this.

Coco just doesn't want to go out, she is still very energetic.

But these guys don't know what has affected them. In short, they have a lazy attitude and don't want to move at all.

But this trip always feels dangerous, so he still has to bring them all.

But seeing them like this, Xu Xin directly put them all into the bracelet.

"Ke Ke, you go out with me too." Xu Xin found Ke Ke hiding behind the sofa, picked it up and said.

Coco can always find something that he can't. When going out to explore dangers, Xu Xin can feel at ease with it.

"Hey..." It can be seen that there is no way to hide, and it is necessary to go out, and suddenly the four short legs and the big tail droop.

It seems that this little guy doesn't want to go out either.

But yes, in this kind of weather, he also wants to hide in the tree house...

But there is no way, he can't sit still.

Xu Xin immediately came to the second floor.

On the second floor, the girls are chatting.

Xu Xin knocked on the door, and everyone looked over.

"Lou Fei'er, Zeng Tao, Jin Yue, come out, we have something to do."

Of course he wouldn't go alone.

After all, there is power in numbers.

"Ah, are you going out again?" Li Wenxi stood up and followed.

Xu Xin briefly informed them of the situation just now.

"Huh? That guy Qin Fu went out to kill himself again." Zeng Tao obviously felt a little upset, "Why can't this guy be more honest? It's finally settled tonight..."

"...Over there, can we find the source of these bugs?" Jin Yue thought for a while.

"That guy's ability is still a bit powerful?" Lou Fei'er stretched her body and said, "Maybe it can solve the problem this time? I don't want this kind of bugs around the tree house all the time."

"I think so too." Xu Xin said, "Since there is indeed an abnormality so close to the tree house, we need to eliminate it. It's too close there, and it can easily affect us."

"You guys are going out again not long after you came back..." Li Wenxi was a little disappointed, "It would be great if I also have your abilities, so I can go out with you."

"What's so good about our ability, your ability is strong!" Lou Fei'er comforted immediately.

"That's right, if it weren't for you, our equipment wouldn't be so good!" Zeng Tao also patted her backpack, which contained the weapons she was very satisfied with.

"Hey!" Ke Ke also jumped towards Li Wenxi, and jumped into her arms.

Li Wenxi's current increase in affinity is not a display, and everyone wants to comfort her when she loses.

"Don't run." Xu Xin pulled Ke Ke out of Li Wenxi's arms, and then said to her, "Wenxi, don't worry about us. There may not be any problems over there. We will be back soon."

"I...Okay..." Li Wenxi lowered her head, and then muttered, "You said the same thing last time."

Last time, I was talking about the exploration of the underground world.

As a result, they came back after a day and a night.

Xu Xin can also understand her feelings, after all, waiting is also very painful.

"Wenxi, here is my watch." Lou Feier took off her watch and handed it to Li Wenxi, "My watch is still working, so you can contact us."

"I also have a watch! Ah..." Zeng Tao swiped her watch, "My watch is useless..."

It appears that her treehouse has been eaten by bugs before.

She also said that when she returned to the tree house before, the inside of her tree house was already covered with insects, so her tree house was probably destroyed when the group of insects first gnawed at the tree house up.

However, giving Li Wenxi a watch that can communicate is actually what Xu Xin wants to do.

Lou Feier did it one step ahead of him.

They need to make sure there is communication between them and the treehouse because...

The location they are going to now is very close to the tree house.

The distance of 800 meters is within the range of the tree house heavy crossbow!

Once there is any situation, any danger, they can use the tree house heavy crossbow!

"Wenxi, I will keep talking with you, so you can help us manipulate the heavy crossbow in the tree house. If we encounter anything, we will need your help."

"Heavy crossbow? Ah!" Li Wenxi immediately understood what Xu Xin meant, and nodded vigorously, "Okay! I understand!"

At the same time, Xu Xin also contacted Ma Hongwei and asked him to provide him with remote support in the tree house.

With the support of the tree house's heavy crossbow, he immediately felt more confident.

"Okay, then let's hurry up and set off."

He got down from the tree house with his three daughters.

"So hot!"

The temperature under the tree house was as hot as ever.

"Oh!!"

The four of them wrapped themselves up tightly, while Xu Xin hugged Coco, who was so hot that he was struggling, and rushed straight out of the line of fire.

These bugs probably came from a farther place along the light. His bonfire cleaned up all the bugs in a large area around him.

After burrowing into the jungle, the number of bugs was greatly reduced.

Compared with the number at the beginning of the pest plague, the current number can basically be equivalent to no more.

After 300 meters away from the tree house, the temperature returned to normal.

Forty degrees, for the few people present, it is not a high temperature at all.

But cocoa is in a bit of a bad state.

It was just about to be baked!

It looked listless, and the whole bear lay limply in Xu Xin's arms.

Xu Xin was heading towards the place where Qin Fu disappeared with the fastest speed.

The three women followed closely behind him.

Among the four of them, Xu Xin should be the slowest.

The mutations of Lou Feier and Zeng Tao are both speed-type, while Jinyue is a mutant with her two legs, and the speed is also fast, so it is easier to follow behind Xu Xin who is advancing at full speed.

Tens of seconds later, Xu Xin stopped fifty or sixty meters away from where Qin Fu disappeared.

"It's right in front, you guys, be careful." Xu Xin reminded, and then walked forward cautiously and slowly.

Lou Fei'er walked quickly in front of Xu Xin: "I'll find the way."

Jin Yue always pays attention to the situation behind her.

Zeng Tao held a giant blade and followed Xu Xin, but this time she was very careful not to let the giant blade rub against the ground to make any noise.

The three women seemed to be protecting him.

"...My combat power should not be much weaker than yours, so I don't need to be so careful." Xu Xin was a little speechless.

"How can that be done!" Zeng Tao waved her giant blade, "If you die, we will all be buried with you. We are dead, but we still have one life. Normal people know how to choose."

Although Jin Yue did not sign a contract with Xu Xin, she was doing the same thing.

That's fine too.

"That... are you coming?" At this moment, Li Wenxi's very low voice came from Xu Xin's watch.

"Well, go further to the place where Qin Fu disappeared."

"This... the jungle is too dense, I can't see where you are... I don't know where you are."

"It's okay, if it's really dangerous, we'll launch an explosive crossbow attack. The explosion of the crossbow is quite obvious at night."

"Oh, alright!"

The four continued to move forward cautiously.

"...There doesn't seem to be anything special here?" Lou Fei'er, who was walking in front, was a little puzzled.

There are indeed more bugs here than in the jungle around the tree house, but that's because most of the bugs around the tree house are fighting the fire, so it seems less.

It's normal to have a little more here, so the few people present are indeed a little confused now.

"...Be careful where you step." Xu Xin reminded her.

Based on Qin Fu's current situation, he roughly made some guesses.

On his current map, Qin Fu's spot of light cannot be seen.

In such a situation, there are two possibilities.

One is that Qin Fu is now underground, so his map cannot be displayed.

The other is that he is too far away from here now, beyond the scope of his map, so it cannot be displayed.

Combined with the fact that his watch is currently unable to communicate, it is almost these two possibilities.

Either it is underground where there is no watch signal, or he is already too far away from the tree house. In this scorching heat, the watch naturally has no signal if it is too far away from the tree house.

Therefore, he felt that Qin Fu might...

It was just like Shi Wanyun was sent away inexplicably!

sent to a distant place.

"All of you, pay attention to your feet. Is there any pattern that looks like a blood pattern? Be careful not to step on it. It may be a teleportation array." Xu Xin reminded the three girls again.

"Teleportation formation?" Zeng Tao was a little surprised, "What do you mean? You mean... the kind of teleportation formation pattern that activates the snow mountain formation?"

The three women present are all the activators of the last snow mountain formation, so they all know the appearance of the teleportation pattern of the snow mountain formation.

"That's right, it's almost that kind of thing." Xu Xin nodded and said, "It's very dark now, the color is not obvious, you should pay more attention and observe."

"Teleportation array?" Li Wenxi in the voice was also a little surprised, and whispered, "The kind Shi Wanyun met? Then you must be careful not to trigger it. If you are teleported away, it will be very difficult to come back!"

"Do not worry."

As a result, several people wandered around here for a long time, but found nothing.

"What!" Zeng Tao was a little irritable because of her high mental tension all the time. She slammed the giant blade on the ground and made a "clang" sound, "What happened! Qin Fu is really I like to look for trouble!"

Originally, she was afraid of the danger caused by the sound of the giant blade, so she had been very careful not to let the giant blade touch the ground, but now, she would rather have something attracted out.

It's better than their futile search here.

Jin Yue still looked around, alert to possible dangers.

Lou Fei'er stopped in her tracks, and said helplessly, "I should have searched all around here, and there is nothing..."

Xu Xin also stopped and frowned.

Why?

If Qin Fu really encountered a teleportation formation...

Could it be that the teleportation array is a one-time use?

So, after the teleportation array teleported Qin Fu away, it disappeared?

That's why I can't find anything here?

wrong.

Before he disappeared, Qin Fu told him that the trees here had a sickly feeling, as if there was something unclean here.

The teleportation array... shouldn't be something unclean, right?

Or, is there something else?

He looked down into his arms: "Ke Ke, didn't you find anything... this little guy."

Xu Xin shook his head helplessly.

He said, why doesn't this little guy talk much all the time.

It turned out to be asleep.

After experiencing the high temperature just now, the little guy's condition is not very good, but now he is sleeping soundly.

They are all running out of snot.

"Coco, wake up." Xu Xin patted its little head lightly.

"...Huh?" Ke Ke opened her eyes and leaned against Xu Xin again.

Xu Xin is now wearing purple-grade steel armor, which is still cool to the touch, so the little guy wants to lean on him.

"Okay, okay, help me see, what's unusual around here."

Xu Xin picked it up and let its small face face forward.

"That's right, Keke, help us to see what's around here!" Zeng Tao also came over, "If there is nothing, we can go back, and don't care about that dead guy!"

She is now like a player playing a decryption game. She has been on a level for a long time and can't find anything. She doesn't want to play anymore, just like looking at the strategy.

"Huh...?" Ke Ke blinked her dazed eyes, then opened them, "Huh!"

It immediately broke free from Xu Xin's hand, jumped to the ground, and started running in one direction!

Xu Xin's eyes lit up.

Sure enough, it still depends on cocoa!

"Follow!"

Several people followed behind Ke Ke and moved forward quickly.

Soon, Ke Ke stopped at one place, looked at the ground, and scratched it twice with her little paws, then stood up with her small body, and tilted her head: "Huh? Huh?"

"...Is there anything special here? I've been here before." Lou Fei'er walked to Ke Ke's side, squatted down and touched the ground.

The ground is very ordinary, that is, hard and dry land, very ordinary land.

Xu Xin reached out and touched it.

...well, normal land, not even polluted.

"...Hmm!" Ke Ke used her small paws to plan the ground again.

Looking at it like that, it seems that I also feel that this place looks very normal, but I also feel that there is indeed a problem here.

"...It's really strange here." At this moment, Jin Yue, who had been silently following behind, spoke.

"Oh? How strange?" Xu Xin turned to look at her.

"I've been observing my surroundings just now. Because the land here was exposed to the strong sunlight before the jungle became lush, there will basically be some cracks." Jin Yue explained, squatting down and touching the ground here, " But the land at this location ... is intact."

"You say it like this...it seems to be true!" Zeng Tao also nodded and said, "Indeed, even the land around our tree house has been dried and cracked."

Xu Xin also began to look carefully at the land here.

Indeed it is.

This piece of land, this piece of land with a radius of about... five or six meters, is very complete.

This is indeed a bit strange.

"Hey!" Coco scratched the ground with her small paws again.

Its meaning is obvious now.

"...Let's dig here." Xu Xin looked at the ground and narrowed her eyes, "The following may be the answer we are looking for."
