Chapter 2 (2/2)
The pain lasted for an unknown amount of time until night fell and Lin Ming gradually eased over.
”Is this... Foot?”
Lin Ming looks at the eight radiating and scattered short taproots under the tree, which are curling up and fixed, and is surprised.
He tried to move those taproots. At first, it was very difficult. It was very difficult to lift them, but soon he became familiar with the way and took the first step.
Lin Ming has completely mastered the method after walking out a few meters.
”Then move to a better place.”
He raised his sight and found that there were dense bamboo forests around him. However, he is now at the bottom of this small hillside.
If you want to find the best sunshine, you have to go higher.
After deciding the direction of travel, Lin Ming began to use a flying leaf knife to cut down all the giant bamboos on the only way.
His movement speed is not too slow. These eight ”feet” can easily support the heavy bamboo body. Even if he tilts backward when climbing the mountain, he doesn't panic at all.
It didn't take long for Lin Ming to come to the top of the hill, which was only forty or fifty meters above sea level. After removing all the giant bamboos around him, he also stopped.
It was noon, the white fog had disappeared, and the strong sunlight poured on the top of the mountain.
[accept the sunlight and you get 1 evolution point]
The systematic feedback affirmed Lin Ming's efforts. It took only ten minutes.
”Well, start over in this place. If there are no more resources, you can look for it again.” Lin Ming made up his mind.
At the highest point of the hill, Lin Ming's line of sight has also expanded considerably.
He found that he was in a long and narrow canyon, and the mountains on both sides plunged into the sky with snow.
From time to time, the long howling of wild animals came, and countless insects sang in a low voice.
Not far away, there is a small river like a jade belt dotted in the ancient forest. Looking forward, the river merged into a small lake with a large area, which is just in the center of the canyon.
As far as the line of sight is concerned, there are almost no people at all. It seems that it is located in the inaccessible primitive jungle.
[mobile roots can be rooted anywhere or moved at any time]
The system sounds again, reminding Lin Ming.
Lin Ming found that after this long movement, without water supplement, the leaves withered and lifeless. The systematic words reminded him to consciously plunge the taproot directly under the land.
After contacting the moist soil, the taproot swam underground as before, and began to emit capillary roots to absorb the nutrients and water in the soil.
After finishing all this, Lin Ming just planned to have a rest. As a result, he suddenly heard a slight commotion near him.
After looking on the ground for a while, Lin Ming finally found the thing that made a sound. It was a small white snake whose body was translucent and not much bigger than an earthworm.
It's only about five centimeters in size. If you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.
Ruby like eyes the size of a grain of rice, dotted with a slightly sprouting head with a slight white light and almost invisible nostrils, there are red forked letters like filaments from time to time.
At the moment, it is gently tilting its small head and looking up at itself. Its small mouth is also slightly open, like yawning, and quickly closes.
Lin Ming doesn't hate reptiles. When he was a man, he also raised lizards.
The little cute snake seems to like itself very much. It has climbed up slowly along a branch hanging to the ground. However, it seems to be lack of strength. It only climbed for a few seconds and then fell back.
But Lin Ming's speed was faster. His branches gently caught the little guy.
The little guy seemed to have some doubts under the gentle lift of the bamboo branch, and made a ”hissing” sound. His small head was tilted aside, and his Ruby like eyes were shining.
”Is your ability cute?” Lin Ming smiled.
