Chapter 13 Finding Teammates

Suddenly light and dark.

Chen Lu opened his eyes, his mind went blank. After a while, he realized that the changes in light and shadow were caused by the swaying sunlight on the branches. There was a small brown thing squatting on the observation window. It was furry and dirty, a bit like a guinea pig.

But he was a lot bigger, and now he was looking at this strange big guy on the ground with his two dark eyes.

Chen Lu woke up and realized that he was still stuffed in the escape capsule, so he reached out to pull the door cover switch. With a hiss, the escape capsule decompressed and opened, and the small thing squatting on it popped out far away. Chen Lu rolled sideways.

When he came out, he felt like his whole body was about to fall apart, and it hurt wherever he moved. He simply lay on his back and spread his limbs, sucking in the air of Purple Star.

The leaves above were rustling and swaying, birds were chirping in the distance, the breeze was slightly cool, the sun was shining a little, Chen Lu closed his eyes slightly, feeling that there was loose soil under him, and the sweet fragrance of plant juices emanated from the surrounding area.

He took a deep breath of the earthy smell, and then let out a sigh that was half sour and half comfortable.

Recalling the circumstances of his fall, Chen Lu remembered that he was thrown out of the starship in the day hemisphere of the Purple Star. Shortly after falling, he slipped into the night hemisphere. After entering the atmosphere, there were dazzling flames outside the window and violent vibrations inside the capsule. Although the air conditioning was gone,

Turning it to the maximum, the high temperature still made Chen Lu wet all over. Approaching the surface, the escape capsule activated the anti-gravity injection system, but it could not completely offset the high-speed impact, and Chen Lu was knocked unconscious.

Chen Lu turned over and sat up, and saw a pile of new soil at the bottom of the capsule, with a long scratch behind it, and the vegetation was scorched. It seemed that the impact when landing was not small. Fortunately, it did not ignite a mountain fire, otherwise he would have died at this moment.

It was like roasting human flesh. He then looked at the surrounding environment. This place was a dense forest with tall and lush trees. Shrubs and herbs crowded every inch of the land. They stretched out their stems and leaves to compete for every ray of light. The dense forest in the distance was blocked and it was impossible to see.

Too deep. Chen Lu originally thought he could see some novel things on the Little Purple Star, but everything was so familiar that he almost felt like he was back on Earth. The only thing that felt special was that the air here was exceptionally fresh.

After the nerves calmed down, the senses became active. A "gulu" came out. Chen Lu felt hungry, and his mouth suddenly felt dry. When he turned his head, he saw the little thing crawling back onto the escape capsule.

His eyes were filled with green light, and by chance the little thing looked over and saw Chen Lu's wolf-like look in his eyes. He turned around and didn't know where he had gone.

Chen Lu's throat was about to burst into flames, so he had to quench his thirst first. He took a rough look at the terrain and found that the location was a small hill. There were lush vegetation around it, so it was probably not a place lacking water. He walked towards the lower ground.

The vines were tangled along the way, and it was very laborious to move forward, but soon he heard the sound of gurgling water. He followed the sound and saw a small stream passing through the rocks. He ran to drink from it, and his empty stomach was cold.

The stream was agitated and it twitched violently a few times, but there was a sweet taste on the lips, tongue and throat.

After drinking a lot of water, Chen Lu checked his equipment. He only had a multifunctional ring and a set of uniforms, which were considered high-tech products. The uniforms and boots were equipped with temperature-regulating, scratch-preventing, waterproof and breathable equipment.

Function. He turned the ring with his thumb, and a light display screen appeared on the synthetic crystal. He turned the program to encrypted voice operation, and then turned off the positioning function. Although the fake Scarlett did not do anything cruel on the starship.

, but Chen Lu didn’t want her to discover him yet. Then he summoned a palm-long flame, switched it to the anti-self-injury mode, and slashed it with his hand. A crack appeared silently on the stone next to him, and deep red appeared on both sides.

The shallow magma solidified in an instant. There was no need to worry about weapons and fire. Chen Lu weighed the ring with satisfaction. His hobbies were indeed good.

After checking the equipment, Chen Lu thought deeply about what to do next.

First, he had to find food, preferably animals. He was not sure whether plants could be eaten.

The second step is to find other teammates. He has lived alone in the jungle of the base for a year. Joseph has no problem surviving in the wild, but others are not safe. Besides, no one knows what large and ferocious creatures there are on the Little Purple Star. This area

He didn't know how old Linzi was. The sooner everyone was gathered together, the greater the hope of escape. Chen Lu flexed his fingers and frowned. He was not good at mathematics and physics. He didn't even have a calculator around him, so he could only do oral calculations.

, he roughly estimated the gap time between the escape capsule's ejection and the flight altitude and speed of the starship in orbit, and then calculated that the distance between the team members should be approximately twenty to thirty kilometers. It only takes two hours for Chen Lu to escape on the plains.

He could run so far, but traveling in the jungle was not a brisk journey. He estimated that it would take him half a day to get there.

The third step is to find which direction to go first. He was the third one to be ejected. The ones ejected in front were Joseph and Murphy, followed in order by Nishino Hanami, Nipo Mocheno, Zenangoti, Ling Shanggong and Wu Shuangxue.

Chen Lu thought of what the fake Scarlett had said to him, and wanted to ask Murphy for details. However, as an explorer, Joseph must know his responsibilities. Moreover, he was the first person to fall, and it was up to him to do it.

Murphy was the most suitable person, so Chen Lu decided to find Yumi Nishino first.

After drinking water to satisfy his hunger, Chen Lu's stomach began to protest again. With the help of the cold water, his stomach twisted into a ball. The pain made him bend over and relieve himself for a while. After wiping away the cold sweat on his forehead, he left and right

After looking around, there were a lot of plants, but none of them he knew, and none of them bore fruit. Looking for a worm was like looking for a needle in a haystack. This not only made him firm up his plan to search for Nishino Yumi first, but she was a botanist.

With home nearby, at least I can have a hearty vegetarian meal.

Chen Lu pricked up his ears and heard the sweet chirping of birds in the distance, but he did not hear the sound of animals. It was difficult to catch birds without tools, so he had to dig out the bark of the tree. There were no insects inside, so he turned to the creek again.

Seven or eight thumb-sized black beetles sprang out from the cracks in the stone. Chen Lu hurried to catch it, but only caught one. He took the beetle in front of his eyes and observed that it had eight jointed limbs and looked a bit like a cockroach.

But judging from its body color and living environment, it should be non-venomous. Chen Lu swallowed hard. He had no choice but to be very hungry. Alien bugs are also meat. He closed his eyes and opened his mouth, stuffing the bugs whole.

He put it into his mouth, fearing that it would bite his stomach, so he chewed it twice. The sour and salty smell directly killed his taste buds, and the smell was like raw chicken. The smell was so fishy that Chen Lu almost spit it out.

The fishy and sour meat sauce was swallowed whole, and taking advantage of his innocence, he grabbed five more and swallowed them. It wasn't until he couldn't stand it anymore that Chen Lu gave up the hope of filling himself up with these bugs.

After all, after eating something, Chen Lu felt that he had gained some strength, so he walked back to the escape capsule along the original path, climbed up a big tree and looked into the distance. Looking around, he seemed to be in a green ocean, with the sun shining

A layer of cyan light mist spread over the forest, and the edges could not be seen in all directions. About thirty kilometers to the right before the landing trajectory, there was a faint cloud of gray-white smoke. Nishino Yumi must have managed to light a fire.

He looked at the direction and used the ring laser to measure the distance. It was about 28 kilometers. Then he determined the direction. Then he jumped down from the tree, used crystal to engrave Joseph's trajectory on the escape capsule, and then walked towards the direction of the smoke.

Chen Lu walked faster at first. Although there was no road at all, he had an indestructible flame in his hands, and the plants blocking the road were instantly broken. He did not encounter any large beasts on the way, and only saw a few huge bones. He didn't know what they were.

The rest of the animals were eaten by some other animal. The other animals I saw were small animals, some looked like hairless puppies, and some looked like big crabs. When they saw Chen Lu, they would turn around and run away.

On a low branch, Chen Lu suddenly found a snake with a green body. It was coiled on the branch and vomited a message to Chen Lu. Experience told him that it was probably a poisonous snake.

With one swing, the green snake was cut off, and the branch was also split. Half of the tail of the green snake was still coiled on the branch, and the head half fell into the grass and rolled over. Chen Lu waited for a moment, and the snake's head finally stopped moving. He

He immediately pulled the half off the tree, tore off the skin and ate the raw snake meat. He was half full at this meal.

After eating the snake meat, Chen Lu took out his one-piece hat from under his collar and his gloves from his cuffs. The uniform was specially made, and sharp objects could not easily damage the fibers. Wrapping the skin could effectively prevent poisonous bites. On the road again, Chen Lu speed

It dropped obviously, and his eyes became alert.

Along the way, Chen Lu followed the directions and marked the way for Joseph at obvious places. However, the actual walking of 28 kilometers took longer than Chen Lu expected. It was not until the forest was darkened that he had not reached his destination. As night fell, Lin

The temperature dropped a lot. Chen Lu could already see the water vapor he exhaled. The temperature range of his uniform was 10-40 degrees. He didn't feel cold on his body, but it was already a little cold.

Chen Lu went up the tree to observe. The sky behind him was almost completely dark, and the sky was full of twinkling stars. A dazzling nebula in the southern sky was particularly eye-catching. There was still a touch of orange-red in the blue-purple sky in front of him, and a few rays of sunset glow. It could no longer be seen at this time.

There was smoke, but a spark of fire was faintly visible. Chen Lu visually judged that the distance was not very far away. He went down from the tree and turned on the flashlight on the ring and walked towards the fire.

The sky was completely dark. After walking for about half an hour, firelight could be seen in the gaps between the woods. Chen Lu secretly felt lucky that the journey was safe and he did not encounter ferocious beasts. As he gradually approached the firelight, he called Nishino Yumi loudly, but there was no response from the surroundings.

.If a fire is lit, then Nishino Yumei should be nearby. Even if he is getting food and water, he should do it during the day. It is already dark like this. If there is no response to the call, either the person is no longer nearby, or he has gone out.

What kind of accident? Thinking of this, Chen Lu felt slightly nervous and walked towards the fire at a faster speed. Just now, he was lucky enough not to encounter danger. At this moment, a cold feeling suddenly rose up his spine, as if he had been hidden by something.
