Chapter 98 Strange Tree

The Demon King walked in first and turned back to wait for Lin Shi.

The entrance to the cave was hidden by a waterfall before it was frozen, and after it was frozen, it was blocked by ice that froze rapidly, making it extremely well hidden.

Lin Shi walked to the entrance of the cave and looked at the Demon King with a strange expression:

"How on earth did you find this place?"

What is this guy doing in the mountains every day?

The demon king held his head high and looked very proud, motioning Lin Shi to follow him in.

Because the sky was getting dark, it was already dark inside the cave.

Lin Shi took out a headlamp and put it on his head, following carefully.

There was no snow on the ground, just rocks covered in ice, which were very slippery.

However, the cave is not deep. After walking for more than ten meters, light appeared in front of us.

Lin Shi followed the Demon King to a cave.

After seeing the scene in the cave clearly, Lin Shi's eyes flashed with surprise.

The cave is very high, with rock walls on both sides. There is a cave entrance at the top. A huge stone lies at the top, and a faint light shines down from the gap in the stone above.

Under the cave is a pool, but the pool is frozen.

In the middle of the pool is a pile of rocks protruding from the water.

A strange-shaped tree grew on a pile of rocks in the middle of the pool, and the faint light scattered above fell on the tree.

This picture looked very strange, and Lin Shi felt as if he had strayed into some fairy tale scene.

The trunk of the tree is curved and the barrel-thick trunk is gray-black.

The tree roots are inserted into the gaps between the rocks and are intertwined.

Numerous branches and dense purple leaves form a huge blue-purple crown.

The whole tree is five or six meters high.

Just looking at it gives me a feeling of extremely strong vitality.

There are also green fruits hanging on the tree, just like the kind that the devil brought back.

Under the tree, a giant snake that had been disemboweled lay motionless with its belly turned over.

The devil saw the snake's body and slapped it away to the pool, then pointed at the tree with his claws.

Lin Shi walked over first to check on the snake.

This snake is about three meters tall, as thick as an adult's calf, and has the same blue-purple pattern as a tree.

The snake's body was almost broken in the middle, and the snake's gallbladder was gone.

Looking at the tooth marks on the snake's body, Lin Shi knew without thinking that it was bitten to death by the devil.

"Did you bite this?"

He glanced at the Demon King, who licked his lips and barked.

"Don't eat everything next time."

Lin Shi's old father sighed, what if this thing is poisonous?

Seeing the devil jumping around proves that at least the snake is non-venomous on the surface.

Lin Shi judged from the size of the snake and the never-before-seen color that the snake had undergone alienation. It would be difficult for ordinary cold-blooded animals to survive at this temperature.

Maybe that tree is also responsible.

But when he walked to the snake, the cornucopia did not indicate whether there was any main source of power nearby.

Lin Shi tried to put his hand on the snake, but there was still no prompt.

Could it be that the source power of this snake was in the snake's gallbladder, and the demon king had eaten the snake gallbladder, so the source power in the snake's body disappeared?

Or did the source beast die too long and dissipate?

Lin Shi pondered secretly.

In fact, he has always had a question in his heart, that is, humans and beasts are both animals, so why are their evolution directions different?

Researchers in the past life have proven that human beings can hardly absorb source power on their own like plants and animals.

just like......

Humans are not native to this planet.

There has been controversy in the history of science as to how humans emerged.

There is no evidence that humans evolved from apes.

Darwin's theory of evolution is just a hypothesis.

Putting aside his bold speculations and calming down his thoughts, Lin Shi walked towards the tree.

The devil was walking around under the tree, looking like he couldn't wait any longer.

After getting closer, Lin discovered that there were teeth marks of the devil on the tree trunk.

With the Demon King's temperament, he wouldn't be surprised if he took the tree back.

Now he only takes the fruit back for himself to pick, which shows how hard this tree is.

He reached out and picked a fruit and handed it to the devil.

The Demon King waggled his tail and took it happily, then put it on the ground and continued to look at Lin Shi.

"You're getting smarter and smarter."

Lin Shi patted the guy's head and climbed up the tree neatly.

When his body touched the tree trunk,

Cornucopia appears prompt:

It is detected that this plant contains a large amount of source power. Do you want to absorb it? whether

Lin Shi raised his eyebrows, not much surprised in his heart.

The cornucopia can absorb source power for more than a day or two.

Lin Shi continued to pick fruits.

After a while, when it fell, there were already more than a dozen green fruits in the space.

After confirming that there was no more fruit on the tree, Lin Shi said to the devil beside him:

"Don't let anything bother me."

The devil immediately became energetic and walked back and forth in the cave.

Lin Shi put his hand on the tree trunk, looked at the cornucopia interface and said silently:

"Yes, absorb."

...

Sea market.

Shen family manor.

Shen Fanren, who was preparing to take a rest, was sitting by the bed, frowning and listening to the report of his subordinate Wang Zhi.

"Boss, those cops still refuse to cooperate with us. Do we want it?"

Wang Zhi tentatively made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Shen Fanren stood up and walked around the room.

The confrontation with the official power of the Public Security Department started when Lin Shi killed Shen Jinbin and three bodyguards in the hospital.

At that time, after Lin Shi killed Shen Jinbin's bodyguard, he did not take away the gun from the bodyguard in order to cause some trouble for Shen Fanren.

But what Lin Shi didn't expect was.

This incident caused Shen Fanren not just a little trouble, but a lot of trouble.

After the apocalypse came in his previous life, Shen Fanren relied on the network of relationships and good reputation he had established in Haishi over the years.

At the beginning of the end of the world, we established a cooperative relationship with the government.

And took out countless supplies and manpower.

This established the Shen family's position in Haishi, until it gradually disintegrated the official forces that annexed Haishi and became the uncrowned king of Haishi.

And in this life, because of Lin Shi's casual step, the police found the gun from bodyguard Shen Fanren.

Shen Fanren was listed as a key investigation target by the Hai City Public Security Bureau before the apocalypse began.

And after the next contact was interrupted, Shen Fanren found that his manor was surrounded by a group of special police officers without receiving any news, and a lot of contraband was found from them.

Shen Fanren was taken away from the manor directly by the special police.

Fortunately, the end of the world is coming, otherwise this would be enough for Shen Fanren to eat peanuts.

Subsequently, incidents of people burning, killing and looting occurred everywhere in Haishi.

Shen Fanren's men took advantage of the chaos and rescued him from the cell.

He returned to the manor to gather his troops again and form a confrontation with official forces.

Later, the manor was renovated and refugees were taken in. With the breakdown of order, crimes occurred every day.

Only then did the official forces in Haishi temporarily let him go.

The official forces in Hai City are headed by the Director-General of the Public Security Department of Hai City, who have gathered a group of security guards, special police officers, firefighters and other civil servants who were originally affiliated with the government.

These days, Shen Fanren has been trying to negotiate cooperation with Haishi officials, but has repeatedly failed.

His strongest support in his previous life has now become Shen Fanren's biggest obstacle in ruling Haishi.

Shen Fanren frowned and did not answer Wang Zhi immediately, but asked:

"What happened to the other thing I asked you to check?"
