Chapter 32 Cannonball Durian Tree

After embarking on the journey.

Xu Ming discovered that transportation means such as mountain bikes and electric scooters were bought for free. In the dense primeval forest, the only reliable and easy-to-use transportation means were his own legs.

Of course, in order not to get lost, a compass is a must-have. The Dajiang drone is also very useful, but the battery life is only about 1 hour and it needs to be charged. Therefore, the most common use of Xu Ming is the ancient invented compass.

Follow the river to the south.

When you encounter shallow ditches and wading through them.

When encountering a steep cliff, use a safety rope to pull it down.

Sometimes when he encounters a huge rock as big as a car, Xu Ming does not take a detour, finds something to cushion, or takes two steps back to run, then jumps up hard, and passes one obstacle after another.

Because the gravity on the portable world is only 70% of that of Blue Star, and Xu Ming does not carry any items, even in the primitive jungle where the road conditions are not good, he is still walking on flat ground and running like lightning, and sometimes even finds a feeling of parkour.

"When it comes to Blue Star, I must be a top outdoor explorer, at the level of Beyer."

However, seeing the performance of the long-eared rabbit Xiaobai, Xu Ming wanted to roast this person like a slap in the face and eat it.

This thing is really annoying.

In the ravine that was more than three meters wide, Xu Ming had to find a longer wooden stick and cross it in a pole vault. Xiaobai didn't even discuss it. He just kicked his back leg and a white figure appeared opposite the ravine.

For example, a cliff wall above five meters deep in front was nearly vertical, and Xu Ming had to use the safety rope to dare to go down. Xiaobai didn't discuss it and jumped down and appeared at the bottom of the slope.

There are countless similar examples.

Xu Ming angrily stroked its head a few times, but the guy ran far away, at least three meters away from him.

The helpless Xu Ming could only rush to the road, but always found a white shadow that surpassed him, and his leisurely and relaxed appearance seemed to be showing off.

"I--"

You must train hard after you go back! Xu Ming said harshly in his heart.

After rushing for most of the day.

Xu Ming took out his 9s mobile phone and saw that he had walked more than 29,000 steps and had walked more than 20 kilometers, but he had not yet completely walked out of the hazel forest. It was just the tall strange trees that looked so close, like giants standing tall.

"It seems that the actual distance is farther than I estimate, at least two or three kilometers."

But this is no longer a big problem.

Looking at the towering trees, Xu Ming accelerated his pace, even ran, and launched the final sprint.

...

Fifteen minutes later.

The dense and shady environment of the hazel forest is no longer visible.

Stars slanted eastward hang in the horizon.

Warm sunshine shines on your face.

The most important thing is that the branches and leaves that you can see when you look up are sparse, with a height of more than 100 meters, and some trees similar to the tropical palm family coconut trees, with an average distance of 10 to 20 meters and a random distribution, forming a forest with a formation of more than five kilometers and a depth of more than ten kilometers.

"If this forest is compared to an army, then a more appropriate adjective is - the rabble."

The giant redwood forest on the west side of the grassy hill is straight, like a javelin, arranged in a sequential manner, and can be described as an elite army.

As for the red date forest, the canopy of the hazel forest is relatively low, but the branches and leaves are dense, blocking the sunlight to be difficult to penetrate, so it can be described as a permanent army.

But the "mob" in front of him firmly attracted Xu Ming's attention, because on the top of the tall tree trunks, there was an extremely huge fruit growing, heavy, and even pressing the trunks obviously, so it looked like there was no momentum.

Now Xu Ming has walked into this forest.

Open the vortex channel, took out the telescope, and observed the giant fruits on the top of the tree.

"The head is indeed large, and its shape is irregular spherical. Some look like tumors, and some look like a head growing on a tree. The peel is mainly blue, but some are gray-black and light yellow. One of the trees there, the peel is close to orange-yellow, like a durian that is about to mature, but it is hundreds or thousands of times larger."

So Xu Ming subconsciously planned to name these trees giant durian trees.

Then an impulse surged in his heart.

The urge to pick a giant durian.

Peel the skin on the surface, dig out the flesh inside, and ask Xiaobai to help him try the poison. After confirming that there is no problem, he will try it himself.

"The durian as big as a truck, the flesh inside is at least enough for hundreds of people to eat, right?"

"How much does durian cost per pound in the supermarket cost? 28 or 38? And it is weighed with skins, and there is not a few bites for a hundred yuan."

"If you bring such a giant durian as big as a small truck to Blue Star to buy it, one can be sold at least tens of thousands of yuan, right?"

Subconsciously, Xu Ming was also typing the economic value of this giant fruit.

Shake his head.

Throw out those unrealistic fantasies.

The next point of Xu Ming’s thinking is how to pick one of this giant fruit and study it carefully.

There are two more difficult questions in front of him.

One is how to climb a big tree that is hundreds of meters high. Xu Ming’s tree climbing skills are not very good. An ordinary tree that is more than ten meters high is no more than half a person to be surrounded by trees. Xu Ming can easily climb it, but a tree that is hundreds of meters high not only requires huge physical strength, but once you let go, you may fall to pieces.

Secondly, how can Xu Ming pick the giant fruit as big as a small truck and weighing thousands of pounds?

If he can't hold it, the fruit falls from a height of hundreds of meters. Wouldn't it be crushed to pieces and the flesh is scattered all over the floor. How to eat it?

It can be said that both problems are difficult to solve.

"Don't worry about anything else, climb up the tree first!"

Xu Ming made a quick decision and planned to climb up a tree first and observe the giant durian fruit nearby. Even if it can't be picked, it would be very good to touch it.

soon,

Xu Ming chose a giant tree that was as thick as a pair of three people, about 80 meters high, with a severe bending at the top (this prevents the giant fruit from suddenly falling behind and hitting him head-on), and climbed up directly.

He took a good idea to climb trees, which was to wear stainless steel cat claws on his hands to strengthen grip and also wear nail-like stainless steel shoe buckles on his feet, so that even the thick tree trunks could climb up.

However, because climbing trees is too hard, Xu Ming usually needs to open the vortex channel and go back to the second floor of the villa to rest for a while.

I've almost finished resting, so continue climbing trees.

After more than twenty minutes, Xu Ming, who had rested seven or eight times in the middle, finally climbed to the top of the strange tree, less than three meters away from the giant green fruit.

At this time, Xu Ming saw the most intuitively how huge the giant fruit was. Even the one in front of him was at least comparable to an ordinary car.

And of all the giant fruits, it is relatively small.

But at this moment.

Xu Ming suddenly heard a howling sound.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that a giant orange-yellow fruit fell straight from the top of the tree trunk.

About six or seven seconds later.

Boom~

There was a loud bang.

Xu Ming heard the sound of bombs exploding in the war film, and vaguely saw a large amount of broken matter splashing, with an amazing momentum.
