wandering planet

After completing the camouflage, the three of them headed towards the nearest canyon according to the instructions of the navigator.

The gravitational force of Graia F is smaller than that of Marseilles, and the plants on the planet are generally half the size of their impressions.It was difficult for Jiang Che to get used to walking in such a gravitational environment, he stumbled all the way, and even fell on Ovid twice.

Ovid had to exchange backpacks with him.

In Ovid's backpack was a piece of gold diamond which he dug out from the bottom of the pool, weighing about two or three catties.With this part of weight, Jiang Che walked much more smoothly.

The golden diamonds at the bottom of the pool did not grow in the ground, they should have rolled down from the mountain and rolled into the pool with the flowing water all the way, so they are particularly smooth and round.Ovid picked and dug for a long time.If Linney hadn't gotten angry, he might have continued to indulge in the pool for a long time.

"Gold diamonds are so useful," said Ovid, "and I thought we could take some more when we left."

"Let's talk about it later," Linney said.

After walking for about half an hour, they passed through a meadow full of flowers and plants more than two meters high, and a deep forest full of giant trees, and finally heard the sound of water flowing from afar.

The canyon is ahead.

The three bent forward and finally reached the edge of the canyon.

At this time, the sun on Greia F was fierce, illuminating the scene in the canyon clearly.

The canyon is not deep, and a stream flows through the entire canyon and flows out from the other side.The canyon was filled with thin mist, and through the mist, they could see several caves of different sizes embedded in the mountain wall.Those are the nests of the Griya worker bees.

As for what is at the bottom of the valley, it is not clear at all from the heights.

"Griya worker bees dig holes and build their nests on mountains, and a canyon is a settlement of a tribe." Linney said, "Ovid, if you look carefully, those caves are one big and there is a small one nearby. ,Right?"

It was Ovid who was in charge of plucking the honey.He observed cautiously and nodded.

"The big one is the nest of the Griya worker bees, and the small one is their honey storage point." Linney continued, "Because the worker bees are large, they will dig many nests to live in the canyons occupied by the tribe, and then they will live near the nests. A slightly smaller hole is dug specifically for honey storage. There is a passage between the nest and the honey storage point, but it cannot be seen from the outside."

Ovid thought for a while, and was a little surprised: "You mean, almost all of these mountains have been penetrated by worker bees?"

Linney nodded: "Yes, they have made various passages in the mountain wall."

The situation is better than Ovid expected.Honey and worker bees are not in the same position, at least it is easy to steal.

Jiang Che was responsible for picking enoki mushrooms, fishing shrimp and collecting aquatic plants. Compared with Ovid, his tasks were not very difficult.

Linney will guard the steel wire in the upper and lower canyons, covering for the two of them.

"Don't go too far, just collect honey in that cave near the steel wire." Lin Ni said, and couldn't help scolding Song Junxing again, "That trash! We do dangerous things, and he can sit back and enjoy the rewards!"

"Let's go to his transfer station to settle down. We still have to rely on him for a lot of things, so you can treat it as a bribe." Jiang Che asked him, "Where is the steel wire?"

According to what Cicero had told Linney, Linney quickly found the steel wire not far from them.

Ovid was thoughtful: "Even if your brother wants to talk to you about the things on this planet, he won't tell you the location of the steel wire in detail, right?"

Linney: "What do you mean?"

Ovid: "It's like knowing that you will definitely come here one day in the future."

Linney had some pity, and touched Ovid's face: "He is so handsome, but his brain is not easy to use."

Jiang Che: "Yes."

The two began to walk towards the steel wire, and Ovid kept wiping his face and followed closely.

The steel wire is obviously set up for people to pass through. The wire itself is as thick as a child's wrist, and the steel wire is evenly distributed with protrusions that can be used for pedaling.Due to the anti-corrosion effect of the applied pigment, although it looks old, it is still very strong.

The two ends of the steel wire were nailed to the mountain wall and could not be pulled at all.Ovid, Jiang Che and Lin Ni reached the inside of the canyon through the steel wire in turn. When they stood on the ground, they were relieved on the one hand, but on the other hand, they immediately became nervous.

There was a rich, sweet scent in the canyon, the smell of Griya honey.Jiang Che's eyes lit up, and he swallowed involuntarily.

Now is the time for the Griya worker bees to leave their nests to gather honey, and there are only a few worker bees flying slowly in the canyon.Their joint limbs and belly are very hard, reflecting the sunlight, shining brightly, like a group of moving Graia diamonds.

Linney climbed up a tree and took advantage of the terrain. After observing the movement routes of the surrounding worker bees, he raised his left hand and swung it in Ovid's direction.

Ovid bent down low, leaning against the dense bushes, and approached the nearest honey storage point step by step.

There is plenty of water vapor in the canyon, and there are many shrubs, and small light blue and pink-white flowers seem to be attached to the branches and leaves, blooming happily one by one.

Ovid felt hungry.The closer you get to the honey storage point, the stronger the aroma of Griya honey.

It's not just sweet and fragrant. Ovid sniffled and felt that there was a hint of sour in the smell, which neutralized the overly sweet, so that people would not be too greasy.

Fingers finally grasped the edge of the hole in the honeypot.

"Stop!" Linney yelled not far away.

Worker bees can't hear human voices, so Linney, who is high up, can give directions.

Ovid stopped moving, and he even held his breath briefly—the sound of the flapping wings of the arthropod gradually became clearer and closer.

A Griya worker bee as long as Ovid's arm flew past him and burrowed into the honey storage point.

During this short glance, the worker bee turned her head and met Ovid's eyes.

Ovid saw countless small, muddy versions of himself in its huge oval compound eyes.

He found that Griya worker bees are not like bees, but more like green bees: thin waist, bulging belly, no hair on the head, and the head and upper body are turquoise.But its wings are pale gold in the sun, and its hard belly is like a cut Griya diamond, a deeper golden color than the wings.

It wasn't until the worker bees flew into the honey storage point that Ovid dared to take a breath.

There were worker bees in the honey storage point, so he didn't dare to enter without authorization, so he carried the honey box behind his back.

"Ovid, wait for it to fly out before moving forward." Lin Ni said loudly from behind, "Jiang Che, let's go!"

Before seeing Greiya's little golden mushroom, Jiang Che was full of naive curiosity about it.

However, at this moment, standing in front of the small pool and looking at the small white mushrooms growing around the pool, Jiang Che sighed lowly, squatted down and began to pick them.

The puddles seem to be the accumulation of rainwater, or the depressions left on the ground after the stream swells and dries up.Although it is not deep, it is actually quite large and wide.

After he fell into the canyon, he realized that everything here was bigger than what he had seen on Earth and Marseilles before, such as a "shrimp" the size of an adult's hand, such as a pastry grass as tall as himself , and aquatic plants the same size as the pastry grass.The smallest one is the small golden mushroom that he is picking now. It grows densely, and each one is white and chubby, squeezed on the edge of water and land.

With Linney's instructions from above, he was able to stop before the worker bees turned towards him, so there was no accident.

After picking the small golden mushrooms in his direction, Jiang Che started to step into the water to catch shrimps in the pool.

This action is very dangerous, because after stepping into the water, even if he stops his action, the water will still ripple, which is easy for worker bees to spot.

Jiang Che quickly started to move, took out a colander modified from a hard plastic box containing biscuits, and kept scooping up shrimp.

This colander was made by Tang Mo. After eating the biscuits, she used scissors to poke a dozen holes under the hard plastic box, just right for catching shrimp.

Because the worker bees have no interest in shrimps, and since the shrimps in the pool have never encountered natural enemies, Jiang Che, a bastard who fell from the sky, scooped up almost all the shrimps in the pool in a few strokes.

Seeing that the bag was about to be full, Jiang Che quickly picked up a few handfuls of aquatic plants, and then climbed ashore.

The pool water washed away the mud below his knees, so he grabbed a handful of mud on the spot and continued to paste it up.

"Hold on!" Linney yelled at him from the tree.

Jiang Che stopped his hands and opened his eyes wide to look at the Greya worker bees that swooped above the pool.

It didn't find anything, and its huge compound eyes turned up and down, left and right, and finally rose into the sky again, and slowly flew away.

It flew towards a gap not far away.

From Jiang Che's position, he couldn't see what was in the gap, but the gap seemed to be a crack in the mountain wall from top to bottom. muzzle.

Jiang Che stood up.He thought of the Maasai who had come to Garia to gather honey, but had returned in vain.

Like Ovid, he carefully stuck to the mountain wall and slowly approached the gap under the cover of bushes.

When the worker bee flew out of the gap, Jiang Che immediately dodged in.

The gap is actually a crack in the mountain wall. Although the entrance is narrow, the inside is wide and deep.

Jiang Che picked up the gun on the ground.

Several dilapidated ships were crowded deep in the crack, and at the position close to Jiang Che, there were scattered bones and broken robots.

He was nervous and confused, his heart was beating wildly, and he kept bending over to pick up the magazines and guns on the ground.Next to a corpse that had turned into bones, he also got a few grenades.

Because of the heavy rain, moss had already climbed onto the bones, and the dilapidated ships were covered with dust and moss marks. There was a long and narrow gap in the surface of one ship, and a hand bone protruded from the gap.

Jiang Che hung all the guns on his body and continued to explore carefully.

At this moment, there was a sudden explosion in the canyon behind him!

He immediately turned around, rushed out of the crack, grabbed his cloth bag from the ground and ran desperately towards the steel wire and Lin Ni's position.

This is the sound of a grenade. Ovid used a grenade mixed with narcotics!

The loud noise of the grenade gradually dissipated, and the honey storage point was filled with turbid smoke.

The fumes did not pose any threat to Ovid, and he quickly filled the box with chunks of honey, staring vigilantly at the depths of the honey storage point.

"Idiot! You have attracted the worker bees!" Linney yelled outside, "Run!"

Ovid had no time to answer. After packing a box of honey, he looked up again into the depths of the honey storage point.

He didn't actually want to use the grenade.There are only two of these grenades, which are too precious.

But he didn't expect that in the depths of the honey storage point, there is actually a group of worker bees dormant!

While carrying the box, Ovid suddenly heard a slight flapping of wings coming from the depths.

Those Graia worker bees who were briefly unconscious all flew up!

He carried the box behind his back as a shield and ran wildly.

"It's useless! The grenade is useless!" Ovid yelled as he ran wildly. "The worker bees are too big! The grenade can't anesthetize them!"

Linney picked up his assault rifle and shot a worker bee flying from the middle of the canyon.

"Climb up!"

Ovid wiped his face: "Jiang Che! Where's Jiang Che!"

"I'm here!" Jiang Che just ran under the steel wire, "Is it heavy! Give it to me!"

"It's not heavy, it's not heavy, hurry up, hurry up." Ovid let Jiang Che climb up the steel wire first, and followed closely behind.

Fortunately, all the worker bees in the honey storage point rushed out at once, but the opening of the honey storage point was too small, and they got stuck.And the dozens of worker bees scattered in the canyon were approaching from far and near, and they were all shot and killed by Lin Ni.

Linney jumped off the tree and ran to the wire while changing clips.

Jiang Che never knew that he had such an excellent talent for climbing trees.He tied the cloth bag tightly around his waist, and Ovid's backpack with gold diamonds hung down his waist, but he still climbed up with his hands and feet.

Throwing the backpack and cloth bag on the ground, he reached out to Ovid who was still on the wire: "Give me the box!"

Linney had also climbed the steel wire at this time.

There was a sudden bang not far away, and Jiang Che raised his head in astonishment.

Those dozen or so hard worker bees broke through the exit of the honey storage point and came towards them!

"Lin Ni!" Jiang Che yelled, "Your direction at five o'clock!"

Linney held the steel wire with one hand, stepped on the force point with both feet, and turned around with an assault rifle in his hand to aim—but his position was too low!Now was not the time to occupy the commanding heights in the trees, his sight and the aiming line of his gun were completely obscured by the trees, and he could not see the swarm.

"Lin Ni don't move!" Jiang Che shouted on the ground, "Ovid, can you climb up—"

A gunshot exploded.

Linney looked up in astonishment, and saw that Ovid above him was the same as himself, holding the steel wire tightly with one hand to control his balance, turned around and shot at the bee swarm.

His weapon is a C66 pistol, which is very light, small and convenient, but its range is not far and its stability is average.

A worker bee fell from the sky.

Its body was broken in two.

Ovid wasn't targeting the heads and abdomens of the worker bees, the two easiest places to hit—he was targeting the worker bees' thinnest waists.

But one hit and the worker bee is dead.

Gunshots rang out continuously, and the five or six closest to the steel wire all broke in two and fell into the misty canyon.

"Climb!" Ovid yelled at Linney, "What are you meditating on!"

Using hands and feet together, Linney quickly climbed up.He was struck by the precision of Ovid's shots.

Even in the Marseille fleet, the number of people with such a stable and accurate shooting ability can be counted on two hands.Ovid wasn't using a great weapon, and they were in such a steep and unbalanced position - he was a formidable hunter.

Ovid rolled to the ground and immediately raised his gun and fired again.

"The bullets are almost gone!" he cried, "but the worker bees are gone."

Linney finally climbed to the ground.He lay on the ground, observing Ovid's gun posture.

Accurate and beautiful.

Ovid lay on the ground, gasping for breath: "I'm exhausted...Jiang, reward me!"

The cloth bag was not tied properly, and a small enoki mushroom rolled out.

"How lovely!" Ovid exclaimed loudly and deliberately, "how delicious!"

Jiang Che snatched the golden mushroom from him and put it away: "Just because of these things... isn't it the mushroom!"

Ovid and Linney: "What's a Tricholoma?"

Jiang Che wiped off his sweat: "Anyway, it's delicious."

The rich sweet aroma of honey permeated around them, and Lin Ni suddenly felt extremely hungry: "I'm starving... Go back quickly... I want to eat... Are you done?"

Ovid: "It's over."

Jiang Che: "No."

His voice was trembling, and he quickly picked up Linney and Ovidra from the ground, and picked up the heavy backpack and his own cloth bag by the way.

"run!!!"

In the sky on the other side of the canyon, a thin black cloud was humming toward them.

It's a swarm of bees returning from collecting honey!
