"Wow! Lions and tigers belong to the same ecosystem?"

The other four people followed Wen Beining's words and looked in the direction where they saw a lion and a tiger sleeping in each other's arms under a ginkgo tree of unknown age.

The four people except Wen Beining: ...

Wen Beining: "Is this world so crazy? Then can we see mice and cats coexisting peacefully?"

Cheng Qianyu touched Wen Beining's head helplessly: "Don't let your imagination run wild, little girl, let's get down to business."

But after walking a short distance, Mingmei felt something was wrong and stopped: "Hiss, why do I feel that this situation is so similar to the tribe of Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai's parents?"

Wen Beining held Cheng Qianyu's arm and said, "No way? That's the zoo in S City. This is Yuncheng, thousands of miles away. They can't take a plane or drive, so they walked here?"

Sheng Yibai held his forehead with his hand: "Ningning, that is a mutant beast, much stronger than humans. You can't judge beasts by human standards."

Wen Beining: ...Mistake, mistake.

Qingyu listened to their conversation for a long time. She also knew the origins of Xiaohei and Xiaobai. She looked around and said slowly: "I think it is possible. After all, the ecosystem here is the Garden of Eden for animals and plants."

"Then keep this idea and observe it for a while. Now let's continue to walk inside. I don't know which direction the Zhichun wood and the dragon tongue sumac tree are in."

"One is the northernmost and the other is the southernmost! There is a huge ancient banyan tree in the center, and we need to identify the location from there." Tuntun's voice sounded, and Wen Beining translated it to Qingyu as usual.

Mingmei poked Tuntun's branches and said, "Dazhi, how do you know so much?"

"I don't know. It seems like I have lived here before. Let's go quickly. I want to confirm my guess."

Wen Beining seemed to know something. Tuntun was found in the seed warehouse. Before it sprouted, it was an ancient plant. As an ancient seed, it was probably living in this endless land, and was later taken out for research by accident.

"But my memory of what happened before I sprouted is vague, and I don't know what I did as a seed."

"It's okay. We'll find out after walking around. We're at the easternmost part now. Let's go straight in and find the giant ancient banyan tree."

"Let's go, let's go. I tell you that the giant ancient banyan tree was planted by my ancestors. It is the real ancestor of our Banyan Tree. I think all the banyan trees in the world originated from it. I have never seen it..."

Tuntun was originally talking about the story it knew, but Wen Beining and the others suddenly stopped and looked at the same place with their eyes wide open.

"What's wrong? You all look terrified?"

Tuntun turned his head and followed Wen Beining's gaze. In front of him was a huge forest. However, in this forest, two mutant mantises were lying on the green small and medium-sized vegetation.

Without exception, the larger mantis was eating the smaller one.

It was so quiet that one could hear the sound of swallowing saliva: "I'm Dazhi, and I don't know much about the insect world. Are they all crazy? Why are they eating their own kind?"

Qingyu raised an eyebrow: "This is called cannibalism. After the male and female mantises mate, the female mantis will eat the male mantis for nutrition and give birth to baby mantises."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment and continued, "But before the apocalypse, it was rare to see such a large-scale eating of male mantises. There should be a lot of resources here, right?"

Wen Beining poked her head in and asked, "Sister Qingyu, is it possible that everyone has mutated and become very strong, and this female mantis can't bully them, so she has to continue to eat her own kind?"

Looking around, I saw that the insects in other places were indeed huge and looked very aggressive.

Mingmei swallowed in fear: "Don't let these things get close to me, they are too scary."

Sheng Yibai turned his back to the group of mantises, touched Mingmei's face, and comforted her softly: "It shouldn't be, don't people here basically not disturb each other, I...ah..."

Wen Beining whipped the man away with a cane and looked at him apologetically. Sheng Yibai: "What are you doing? You little girl!"

Mingmei's face turned pale when she saw the situation clearly. She walked up to Sheng Yibai and slapped him on the head: "Ningning is saving you!"

Wen Beining opened his mouth, his voice trembling: "Should we run first?"

Looking over there, I saw that the group of female mantises had finished eating the male mantises at some point, but they seemed to be still unsatisfied. They looked at their position with red eyes.

A pool of white substance attacked the place where Sheng Yibai was just now. No one knew what it was, but what we knew was that this pool of white stuff might have the same function as sulfuric acid.

"It's the lytic enzymes. Let's go first. They are in the state now. They probably think we are food."

As they ran away, Wen Beining didn't forget to complain: "No way, you can't bully other animals or insects, but you bully people, wuwu X﹏X"

But after running only about a hundred meters, the mantises stopped chasing and stood by the tree, looking at the mantis in the distance with red eyes but not moving forward.

Wen Beining looked at Qingyu questioningly, waiting for an answer.

"There was no such thing before the apocalypse. I wonder if it could be a territorial consciousness? Is the place we are in now the territory of another animal?"

This did not make them let down their guard at all, but made them even more nervous.

Wen Beining hugged Cheng Qianyu's arm tightly: "What kind of unknown animal is this? This is the Garden of Eden of plants and animals, and the burial place of humans."

Everyone looked around but didn't see any animals, and just when they were about to breathe a sigh of relief.

A drop of water fell on Wen Being's forehead, and he subconsciously reached out to touch it: "Huh? Is it raining?" He slowly raised his head, and just above their heads, there was a dark patch on the tree trunk, and it was looking at them with its eyes wide open.

And the drop of unknown liquid on Wen Beining's forehead was exactly the saliva of the thing on the tree.

ah! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The scream that resounded through the sky startled a few birds. Wen Beining looked at them stupidly: Eh? Shouldn't I be the one screaming?

Sheng Yibai reacted very quickly, holding the screaming Mingmei and continued running. The other three people who reacted also quickly left under the big tree.

As soon as he stood in the sunlight, he was stopped by Qingyu: "Okay, okay, the night spiders won't come over. They need to hide in a place without sunlight during the day."

Mingmei's face was in dismay as she burst into tears: "Oh my god! I'm most scared. There are so many of them, and they're so big. What the hell is this place!!!"

Tun Tun sighed that life is not easy: "We haven't moved forward yet, and we are almost at the gate. There are dangers everywhere. Ningning, can we still get to the giant ancient banyan tree?"
