The sudden attack scared everyone and dispersed even if they did not receive the order from the second captain.
As expected of an intern!
But the second captain did not dare to criticize. Even though he saw something was abnormal, he still insisted on not retreating and observing, resulting in serious injury to one of the members. He has a great responsibility.
As soon as everyone retreated to the area near the off-road vehicle, the second captain rushed over with the seriously injured intern on his back, snatched the cigarette from Zhang Tianliu’s mouth, held it in his mouth and blew out the smoke while saying, “Did you discover something?”
With this tone, the previous unhappiness was obviously forgotten.
Zhang Tianliu casually took out a telescope and said, “See for yourself.”
The second captain took it and looked down the mountain col, but found nothing.
“There’s nothing, what do you want me to see?” the second captain said angrily.
Zhang Tianliu refilled a cigarette by himself and said angrily: “Do you think you are playing with a wooden person? You can’t see if they don’t move? Even if you don’t recognize them, you won’t compare the broken vines with the mountain col. Are there any similar plants?”
“This…” The second captain blushed for a moment, then scanned it carefully, and was immediately stunned.
Although very sporadic, we did find many vine-like plants hidden among the fallen leaves.
“This kind of vine is actually very easy to recognize. The red and green skin looks like a dragon fruit. In the monster collection, its scientific name is the fire dragon vine, also known as the fire snake demon vine. It is tentatively classified as the monster world, the plant demon gate, and has no leaves. Phytophthora, Phytophthora, Megapodidae, Dragon Vine genus, Dragon Vine species…”
“What are you showing off? You’re just talking human words.” The second captain snorted angrily.
Before Zhang Tianliu could explain, the girl in military uniform quickly searched on her mobile phone and said excitedly: “I found it. It’s true. Wow, this fire dragon vine is good at hiding. It has no flowers or leaves, no need for photosynthesis, and it grows by preying on animals. It is said that the plant is more like an animal, or a carnivore, with a strong sense of territory. Where it appears, there will be no second carnivorous animals and plants. It can be said that the entire mountain col is its territory! It has the ability to escape from the earth. Also, this thing is very sensitive to ground vibrations. Not to mention humans, it can detect even small mice passing by. However, it should be difficult for it to detect it from our distance. Just now, it was because Awei was lying on the ground and fired continuously. The gun rack shook the ground to get its idea. Now as long as we stay still, the vines won’t attack.”
After everyone heard this, they just breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Zhang Tianliu asked with a smile: “Are you sure?”
“What? Isn’t it?”
The girl in military uniform pouted her little mouth and looked at Zhang Tianliu. She saw Zhang Tianliu nuzzling his mouth. She immediately looked and found that a large vine had appeared on the side of the retreat. The scene was like countless snakes entangled, all red vines. Its body, with green hooks and thorns, has completely blocked their retreat.
“This…could it be the off-road vehicle that brought them here?” The girl in military uniform turned pale with fright.
Zhang Tianliu immediately put aside his responsibility and said: “Nice, that’s the right answer, but it has nothing to do with me.”
Everyone was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Suddenly, the second captain raised his gun and was about to shoot, but Zhang Tianliu reached out and pressed down the gun head.
“What are you doing?” The second captain glared at Zhang Tianliu.
“It’s my turn to ask you this, what do you want to do? If you fight like this, it will be useless to use up all the bullets.”
“What should we do? Close combat?” As he said that, the second captain was about to draw his sword.
Zhang Tianliu rolled his eyes.
Why?
Why did you meet such a reckless man again?
Are there not many good teammates who are as smart as Boss Mo, have the strength of the old man, and are as willing to work as Xiao Bai?
“It’s really not possible to fight like this, and close combat is very dangerous. If a human body is slightly entangled, it will be useless. Ah Wei is the best example. His whole body was punctured by thorns, but little blood flowed out. The reason The thorn on the Fire Dragon Vine is more like a straw than a thorn. Ah Wei is losing too much blood. It is very easy to defeat the Fire Dragon Vine, just cut off its main root!”
“Is this also called simplicity?”
Everyone glanced at the mountain col and saw nothing but trees or leaves.
The girl was also very depressed, so she simply turned her head and looked at Zhang Tianliu pitifully.
“Look at what I’m doing, I can’t help you.” Zhang Tianliu quickly dismissed the girl’s thoughts.
“Then what should I do?” The girl continued to look through the Fire Dragon Vine’s information depressedly.
Although the information is detailed, many of them are not recorded, such as how to easily find its main root, and whether it is effective to attack the east and west. There is no such important response information at all. If they try easily, let alone be able to Whether it is successful or not, the encirclement circle will definitely shrink quickly.
The reason why the current Fire Dragon Vine slowly shrinks its encirclement is because it is worried about missing a certain area. It is searching carpets one by one. Unless it can fly, it will become the Fire Dragon Vine’s delicacy sooner or later.
“Damn it, I still don’t believe it!”
The second captain suddenly became angry again and pried open the off-road vehicle’s fuel tank cap with a knife.
“Get me a pipe, I’m going to put some oil in and burn this beast with a fire.”
Sometimes reckless people can get things done!
This time the second captain was undoubtedly right.
It was also because the method of dealing with the Fire Dragon Vine was too simple, so Zhang Tianliu remained silent and lowered his performance. If they couldn’t think of the fire attack in the end, he would pretend to have a flash of inspiration and tell them.
The second captain’s decision immediately made everyone look enlightened.
Yes!
Fire overcomes wood! Such a simple truth actually came up to Captain Mang in the end. How shameful!
So what if you are facing a monster? It’s not just a piece of wood. If you drop a barrel of oil, you still can’t believe it will burn to death.
Seeing everyone busy working as if they were reborn, Zhang Tianliu chuckled and said: “Set the mountain on fire and sit in jail, captain.”
“Get out of here, grandma.”
While the second captain was cursing, he had already filled a bottle of gasoline. Without saying anything, he stuffed it with a cloth and ignited it. Then he threw it towards the col. While the gasoline bottle was still spinning in the air, the second captain drew his gun and shot. A pistol bullet quickly and accurately penetrated the gasoline bottle in an instant, and a large flame fell from the sky, falling into the mountain col, and quickly ignited an area of nearly a hundred square meters.
With this burning, it was as if the entire mountain col was moving. The countless fallen leaves piled up seemed to be floating on the river, being pushed by the undercurrent below, creating undulating waves.
“One more bottle.” The second captain stretched out his hand and shouted angrily.
An intern hurriedly handed over the prepared gasoline bomb and helped the captain light it. The captain threw it with a swing of his arm, followed by another “bang” shot. Large flames fell into the forest, making the turmoil below even more intense. As fallen leaves slipped from the vines, thick vines thicker than human legs twisted like snakes, turning the entire mountain col into a sea of snakes and pythons!
At the same time, the tremors began!
The vines inserted into the mountain soil were pulled out one by one, dancing wildly like octopus tentacles, either intentionally or unintentionally flapping the flames on their bodies.
“Cthulhu!” The girl in military uniform held the cross country with one hand to steady herself, and covered her mouth with the other hand with a look of horror on her face.
Zhang Tianliu smiled and said: “I have seen something more like it. If you live a few more years, you might be able to see it too.”
“Really?” The girl’s fear disappeared and she turned to look at Zhang Tianliu with shining eyes.
“False.”
Zhang Tianliu’s basin of cold water chilled the girl’s heart.
“Hmph, I’m ignoring you, Captain, what should we do now?”
The second captain chuckled and said: “Since the vines behind have not been retreated yet, let’s get two more bottles. You are ready to start. As long as there is a retreat, once you are sure that you will not be burned to death, retreat immediately.”
Zhang Tianliu first got into the driver’s seat, and then said: “Twenty people are crowded into a car. First, I, the driver, can’t squeeze in, and then Ah Wei, who is still alive, can’t squeeze in. How do we get out?”
