Chapter 291 Black Water
"Is this the river to the west?"

Lu Qing looked at the dark river in front of her, and squatted down with a serious expression. She looked at the water under her feet. After a while, her expression gradually became dull. Obviously, she was thinking about something.

On the way here, except for the talking corpse, Lu Qing didn't encounter any creatures. Well, if corpses are considered creatures.

This is very strange. You know, in the introduction of the dream, it was clearly said that this forest should be full of mutated animals and plants, but she didn't encounter any of them.

If it's luck, then Lu Qing doesn't know whether she is lucky or not, but if the luck factor is excluded, it can only explain one problem.

There must be some reason, perhaps some external factors, that caused Lu Qing not to encounter any animals or plants, or is there no animals or plants here at all?
Lu Qing didn't know. After thinking for a long time, she couldn't come up with any results, so she could only temporarily put these thoughts behind her.

When she came back to her senses and looked at the river in front of her, Lu Qing was in trouble for a while.

The river in front of me is not spacious, only about seven or eight meters wide, and the depth of the water is not clear, because the river is pitch black, so it is impossible to see clearly under the water.

Lu Qing didn't even dare to touch it. After all, the pitch-black river water looked abnormal, and who knows if touching it would be dangerous.

"Maybe I can try it with a wooden barrel." Lu Qing thought after frowning for a while.

There must be a problem with the water. Lu Qing dare not use her hands to bang it, but she can directly scoop it up with a wooden barrel. As for what to do with it, Lu Qing hasn’t figured it out yet, she just wants to scoop it up. .

Maybe she could try pouring the water on other plants later to see how it reacted?

This should be useless. After all, the plants near this river seem to be quite healthy. Either the water has no effect on the plants or these plants have developed resistance to the water.

"So what's the use of me bringing up a bucket of water?" Lu Qing thought to herself.

Although she thought so in her heart, Lu Qing honestly put the wooden barrel into the river and filled it half full with water.

A miraculous thing happened. When the river water was fished out of the barrel, the originally pitch-black water changed color immediately, and gradually became clear and bright, looking like ordinary water.

At the same time, the bulletin board in Lu Qing's mind trembled, and lines of information were refreshed.

[Prop Name: Black Water]

[Item Quality: Special Item]

[Introduction: This is a kind of magical water, you can only see them in the dark forest, oh I mean, all the water will become like this when it comes to the dark forest, and once you take it out, they will be like this It will be back to normal, it's amazing, right, I think so too. 】

[Skills: Transformation, Strengthening]

[Transformation: Some kind of wonderful changes have taken place in these waters. When they gather together in small amounts, they will be clear, transparent and harmless drinking water, and once the degree of gathering exceeds a certain level, these water flows will transform into Black, become a poison that kills at the touch! 】

[Enhancement: Black water is not necessarily fatal. There is a certain probability that when you touch black water, you will evolve. As for the price of failure, it is death! 】

[Remarks: The situation is at least not worse than imagined, is it? 】

"The situation is indeed not worse than imagined," Lu Qing muttered as she looked at the note on the item.

She originally thought that the water was undrinkable, but she didn't expect things to turn around.

"However, is it a poison that can make people evolve?"

A gleam of light flashed in her eyes, Lu Qing looked at the black river that was constantly flowing, and her brain was running fast.

The water in the dark forest will become the water flow in the river flowing under her feet, so what is the significance of doing so?

Lu Qing didn't think it was a meaningless move, something that had a wide range of influence but was useless should not appear in the dream.

"Evolution." Lu Qing felt that this word was very important, but she didn't know where it was important for the time being.

As for reaching out to touch the river now to see if she can evolve, Lu Qing would never do it.

It is stated on the notice board that the consequence of failure in evolution is death, and generally speaking, the probability of evolution must be higher than death. Besides, what if the so-called evolution is actually turning into a monster?
After all, in a sense, becoming a monster can indeed be regarded as evolution.

Putting the wooden barrel back into the water, Lu Qing filled the entire wooden barrel, and after confirming that the water inside was still clear and transparent, she carried the wooden barrel and walked towards the direction she came from.

The forest was still as quiet as when we came here. Lu Qing didn't encounter any danger along the way, and returned home easily.

"The water problem has been solved, but some accidents have happened to the food problem." Seeing her wooden house in the distance, Lu Qing thought with some distress.

It is true that having water can make them survive for a few more days, but without food, it is just a few more days of struggle. This forest is so quiet, Lu Qing seriously doubts whether there are any animals in it.

There should be some, otherwise, how did her father hunt and support the family before?
"Huh, think about it better, maybe it's just that there are no animals on the other side of the river."

The water in the entire river is untouchable, and if you touch it, you will die, so it seems a reasonable explanation that there are no living things there.

But Lu Qing always feels that this is not the case. If wild creatures cannot go to the river to drink water, then where do they go to replenish water?

Or, those who were poisoned to death have already died completely, and only those who have successfully "evolved" can survive?
Could this evolution be the real reason for the variation of those animals and plants mentioned in the dream information?
"Ah, don't think about it, I'm so dizzy!"

Shaking her head, her silver-white hair fluttering, Lu Qing paused all kinds of thoughts in her mind, opened the door and walked in.

"Ah Qing, it's just in time for you to come back, come and eat." In the room, the mother sitting on the wooden chair looked at Lu Qing who opened the door and came in.

"Well, okay, but wait a minute, I'll put the water in the kitchen." Lu Qing looked at her mother, sister and brother sitting at the dining table, nodded and said.

Turning around and walking towards the kitchen, after putting away the water in the wooden barrel, Lu Qing moved with a thought, and a pale golden one eye slowly opened from her forehead.

The field of vision expanded strangely to the left and right sides. Although Lu Qing felt a little uncomfortable, she didn't feel any discomfort. She looked around secretly, especially at her own dining table.

She wanted to confirm whether what she saw was real.
