Gu Chenglan's hands were steady, and his gaze was so sharp that he could split the rain curtain in front of him and reach deep into the jungle.
Before Su Nuo had time to see what was in the jungle, he saw Gu Chenglan's index finger already on the trigger.
With a soft "pop" sound, the crossbow arrow broke through the rain curtain, drew a beautiful line, and rushed into the jungle with a dazzling silver light like lightning.
"Did you hit it?" Su Nuo blinked, but still couldn't see what Gu Chenglan was aiming at.
"Probably." Gu Chenglan took back the crossbow, shook off the rainwater on it, and raised the glass: "We will go over and take a look when the rain stops."
Su Nuo raised his cute little head and kept looking into the jungle, really curious about what kind of prey Gu Chenglan had just hunted.
"Are you in such a hurry?" Gu Chenglan put his face close to Suno's and pressed his forehead: "If you call me 'good husband' three times and kiss me again, I will take you to see him now."
"It's okay to call me anything, but it's still raining now." Suno pouted deliberately, "I don't want to get wet."
"Then I'll go, come and kiss." Gu Chenglan also pursed her sharp lips.
"Forget it, wait." Su Nuo nestled into Gu Chenglan's arms, looked up at the endless rain falling from the sky, and said, "The rainy season here is really special. The heavy rain is like installing a switch. Turn it on and it will fall, and turn it off. It’ll be sunny soon.”
"Well, Africa is very charming, but it is also the most dangerous place." Gu Chenglan and Suno hugged each other, huddled in the car and waited for the rain to stop.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the rain was turned off just as Suno said.
The sky became clear almost immediately. The big sun evaporated the rain on the ground into a mist, making the air moist and you could feel the rain penetrate into the alveoli.
"Let's go." Gu Chenglan got out of the car first, walked over and opened the car door on Su Nuo's side, not forgetting to remind: "Tie your shoelaces tightly. Also, pull up your collar."
Although it was very hot here, Suno still insisted on wearing long sleeves and pants. Now when I want to walk into the jungle, I pull the collar of my shirt directly to my chin.
There are jungles on both sides of the road in Africa, and there are no fences.
If you encounter African elephants, bison, or wild horses migrating, you can even see a large number of animals walking past the car.
Occasionally, a baby elephant would rub against the car out of curiosity, causing the car to rock back and forth.
So their car was parked on the side of the road and they could walk into the jungle without taking a detour.
The canopy of trees above our heads is like a huge umbrella canopy. When walking in the jungle, it feels like the light is dimmed by several degrees.
Gu Chenglan held Su Nuo's hand, and the two walked in tandem. There is excess rainwater under the old leaves under your feet, and occasionally you can sink your feet up to your ankles if you step in deep places.
"Wow." Suno pulled his feet out of the puddle again and said with a frustrated look, "This is my first time walking into the jungle since I got off the plane."
"You have me, don't be afraid." Gu Chenglan held Suno's hand tightly.
"I'm not afraid, I just feel horrible." Su Nuo changed a word to express what he meant: "Terror means fear of encountering something I hate."
"for example?"
"Snake. Lizard." Su Nuo glanced at Gu Chenglan, suddenly had a bad feeling, and asked: "Tell me quickly, what did you hunt just now?"
"It's not too far, you can see it soon." Gu Chenglan pursed his lips and smiled: "Just a reminder, you can eat it."
