Xiang Cheng completely ignored Qi Wei who was following behind.
"What's in the bag?"
"Tools for survival in the wilderness." Chi Xiaoduo replied: "There is a rope, a knife, and a can of luncheon meat..."
Qi Wei said with a smile: "The organization specially put it here so that you can find it after searching."
Chi Xiaoduo said, "How is it possible?"
Xiang Cheng said, "Look at the shelf life of canned luncheon meat."
Chi Xiaoduo: "..."
Qi Wei: "..."
"The production date was three months ago." Chi Xiaoduo said with a twitching corner of his mouth, "It was really put here temporarily."
Xiang Cheng hummed, and then said: "You keep it, you will definitely need it later, what are you busy with when I'm not around?"
Chi Xiaoduo told Xiang Cheng about the magic weapon of Chen Zhen's family. Considering that Qi Wei was by his side, he didn't dare to say more. Talk a lot, and said, "I'll carry you on my back."
"You can walk." Chi Xiaoduo said.
"The hostages should give us full marks." Qi Wei said again.
Xiang Cheng once again ignored Qi Wei, who kept trying to break into the topic along the way, and asked Chi Xiaoduo, "What meal do you eat with Chen Lang every day? Didn't you let you live in Da Da's house? Are you hungry?"
"The soup is delicious, just a little lighter." Chi Xiaoduo replied.
Qi Wei: "Director Chen's younger brother has regained his sight?"
Xiang Cheng: "I thought I wouldn't be able to pass, so I held your lucky charm in my hand, and finally passed."
Chi Xiaoduo laughed, thinking that Chen Zhen should be helping, but of course this cannot be said, anyway, even if Xiang Cheng is a scumbag, his strength is still very powerful.
Qi Wei: "Is this the right way to go?"
Xiang Cheng hummed casually, and finally talked to Wei Qi.
A few people went down the mountain by one road, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw another winding staircase leading to the top of the hillside. Xiang Cheng hesitated for a moment, playing with a snuff bottle in his hand, and stared at Wei Wei's back.
Chi Xiaoduo was still immersed in the confession until now, stopped and asked Xiang Cheng, "Going up the mountain?"
Qi Wei in front also stopped and said, "Why don't you go this way?"
Xiang Cheng put away the snuff bottle, and there was a voice from above.
"There should be another way..."
Everyone: "..."
Koda, Chen Zhen and Chen Lang came down the small steps, and the two teams stared at each other.
"Hi!" Chi Xiaoduo greeted them warmly.
Chen Lang brought out the fruits, one for each person.
"Let's go." Xiang Cheng said expressionlessly.
Da Da: "You can't do this, Xiang Daxian, I'm already very miserable, and I have no fighting power at all..."
Keda's voice was far behind, and Qi Wei turned around and whistled at them.
Chi Xiaoduo was still a little worried about meeting that Lu An just now, they walked into the dense forest, Chi Xiaoduo said: "Just now Zhou Wanyuan and Fang Yilan beat the orangutan away."
"The monsters of the Exorcist Committee are scattered this time." Qi Wei said, "The venue is too big."
"Where are we going?" Chi Xiaoduo asked.
"North." Xiang Cheng said simply, "Tired? I'll carry you."
Chi Xiaoduo hurriedly asked if it was true, and then said, "I was almost taken away by Lu An."
"Lu An?" Xiang Cheng's expression changed.
"Lu An." Qi Wei raised his eyebrows and said, "He came to see you?"
"He's so irritable." Chi Xiaoduo said, "To us... er, no, he almost used force on us."
Xiang Cheng said, "Go out and teach him a lesson."
Qi Wei smiled and said: "That guy is like this, he has bipolar disorder."
Chi Xiaoduo was still a little unspeakably worried, and he asked again: "Is Lu An an exorcist?"
"It's a disciple of an exorcist with a bad temper." Qi Wei replied.
Chi Xiaoduo nodded, feeling relieved for the time being. After what happened with Jing Hao, he was always a little suspicious. Of course, as long as Xiang Cheng is not a fake, you can rest assured about this.
"I need to find some water first." Chen Zhen said, "It's getting dark soon... Ke Ke, you can walk faster."
Da Keda: "Director Chen, go behind your brother's back and show me."
Number of people:"… "
Deep in the woods, the two groups meet again.
"Hi..." Chi Xiaoduo greeted Chen Lang, the sky was dark, Chen Lang waved his hand, meaning do you want to eat fruit, Chi Xiaoduo waved his hand to signal that he couldn't.
"Hi Da Ke, Da Da break!" Chi Xiaoduo said.
"Break!" Da Keyuan said.
Koda and Chen Zhen walked away consciously.
"Find a place to spend the night." Xiang Cheng said, "Go on the road tomorrow."
"Forty-eight hours, seven hours have passed now." Qi Wei said, "The key is how to find the exit."
Chi Xiaoduo went up the mountainside from the south slope of the first mountain, and now he descends from the north side, which is equivalent to the distance of climbing a mountain. The logger's small house has been hidden in the twilight, surrounded by bushes, The ground was wet, covered with muddy water and leaves, and they walked nearly three kilometers.
A drop of water fell on Chi Xiaoduo's head, and it began to rain lightly.
"Where's Qi Wei?" Chi Xiaoduo realized that Qi Wei was gone.
A whistle blew in the distance, and the sound cut through the long night.
Xiang Cheng opened the broken bone umbrella, put his arm around Chi Xiaoduo's shoulders, and walked towards the depths of the mountain. Qi Wei stood in front of a cave and called them over.
"How do you know there is a hole here?" Chi Xiaoduo said.
"In this kind of mountain, there are usually mines." Qi Wei replied, "wood is easy to get, and can be used as a cave support. Daxing'anling is rich in minerals. Let's spend the night here at night."
Xiang Cheng went out to collect firewood, Qi Wei and Chi Xiaoduo sat in the cave.
"There is usually a mine in this kind of mountain." Chen Zhen's voice came from outside the cave.
Qi Wei: "..."
Chi Xiaoduo: "..."
Da Da: "Don't go in! I'm afraid of the dark!"
"Then get out in the rain, come on, put Xiao Lang down."
Chi Xiaoduo held his forehead with one hand, and Xiang Cheng also came in. Four big men over 1.8 meters tall were squeezed into a small mine.
Xiang Cheng: "..."
"We discovered it first." Chi Xiaoduo said, "We will only let you in after paying the protection fee."
Chen Lang sat down inside and shared food with everyone, everyone was speechless.
"Mr. Huo." Xiang Cheng said.
Qi Wei made a gesture with both hands, a fireball shot out of his hand and shot at the firewood, but the firewood was wet and couldn't hit it.
Chen Zhen took out the heart lamp and lit it, and the cave was filled with the feeling of holy light, making Chi Xiaoduo feel light and warm, but after lighting the firewood for a while, it didn't ignite and went out.
It was dark in the cave.
Xiang Cheng recited a mantra, snapped his fingers, a bright flame burst out between his fingers, and circled around the firewood, and the wood smoked.
"It's too wet to ignite." Xiang Cheng said, "I'll think of a way."
"Can't you use Mingwang Suppressing Demon Real Fire?" Chen Zhen said, "The lamp of the heart cannot last long."
Qi Wei said: "Dragon subduing spell, I summon a fire dragon."
"You're not afraid of blowing up the cave." Xiang Cheng said coldly, "It's easier to invite a dragon than to send a dragon."
"You all go outside, stay away." Qi Wei took his ipad to look into the cave, and said, "You may not be able to invite a real dragon."
"It's too dangerous. If a real dragon is invited, the forest will be burned to the ground." Chen Zhen said, "Think of a different way, how can I dry the firewood?"
"Fang Yilan has a solution." Xiang Cheng said in a deep voice, "Go find someone?"
Koda said: "I remember that Cao Bin has a subordinate who can breathe fire. Looking for him?"
Everyone was troubled by making a fire. Chi Xiaoduo took out a small can of gasoline from his bag, poured it on the firewood, and pushed the lighter with a click. Everyone came out of the cave to avoid the smoke from the wet firewood. A gust of wind blew away the smoke, and everyone came in again.
After eight o'clock at night, the temperature dropped instantly.
"Technology changes life." Chi Xiaoduo chuckled, overjoyed.
Everyone was speechless.
Xiang Cheng took out an iron lunch box, opened the lid, sprinkled some salt inside, and put it in the woodpile.
Chen Zhen took out an insulated bucket from Koda's backpack, took out the liner, poured some pure water into it, put it on the fire, and put it back into the insulated bucket after the water boiled.
Half an hour later, Xiang Cheng opened the box, and inside was a large box of salt-baked potatoes.
"Goo—"
Chi Xiaoduo's stomach started growling.
"Can I eat it?" Chi Xiaoduo asked.
"Add some meat." Xiang Cheng peeled a piece of luncheon meat inside and sprinkled pepper.
"And vegetables."
Add a few slices of wild vegetables, cover it, and simmer for five minutes.
Everyone's stomach growled together.
Chen Zhen poured out a bowl of soup for Chen Lang.
Chen Zhen: "We will exchange a bowl of soup for your two potatoes."
Xiang Cheng: "Deal."
So Qi Wei and Da Da watched helplessly as Chi Xiaoduo and Chen Lang began to drink soup and eat potatoes, Da Da couldn't help swallowing.
"Brother Da Ke." Qi Wei gave him a compressed biscuit.
With tears in his eyes, Da Da nodded his thanks again and again.
Deep in the forest, in the examiner's hut.
Wang Lei couldn't laugh or cry: "The four exorcists turned out to be the hostages who started the fire in the end. When they went out, they said that the exorcists were ashamed and threw them home."
Lin Yurou: "The hostages in that group are in danger, you have to rescue them quickly."
"Continue to observe this group..."
"Teacher Zheng, rest for a while..."
"Okay, I'll close my eyes and rest for an hour, I'm no younger than you."
…
Outside the mine:
"Usually there should be a mine in this kind of mountain... because it is a virgin forest. During the training, it was said that there are abundant coal resources. You must have dozed off during class..." Zhou Wanyuan's voice came from outside.
"I can't sit down anymore!" Da Da was furious.
"Gegento Ruleda!" Zhou Wanyuan said, "Can you be a little gentleman?"
Chi Xiaoduo: "Hi!"
"Hi—" Fang Yilan came in generously, bringing the hostages.
Xiang Cheng glanced outside, didn't say anything, and moved inside again.
"It smells so good." Master Lei Kuang drank the milk and said, "Directors, can I have some?"
"Drink your milk." Koda said, "I don't even have to eat it myself."
"Is there any milk left?" Chen Zhen asked, "We can exchange it with you."
"No more." Zhou Wanyuan said boredly, Fang Yilan opened the bag, gave each of them a piece of seaweed, and asked, "Do you want melon seeds?"
Chi Xiaoduo looked at Xiang Cheng, and Xiang Cheng said, "If you want melon seeds, give her a potato."
So everyone bartered and spent this cold night. Chen Zhen dozed off in front of a stone, Da Ke, Qi Wei, and Zhou Wanyuan were eating melon seeds and playing cards. Fang Yilan borrowed Qi Wei's ipad and listened to radio dramas while playing cards. Drawing sketches, Chen Lang was beside Fang Yilan, watching her draw curiously.
Xiang Cheng and Chi Xiaoduo nestled in the deepest part of the cave, Xiang Cheng held him in his arms, his expression was erratic, and he looked into the cave for a while, the wall in the deepest part of the cave was covered with dirt, as if it had collapsed recently.
Chi Xiaoduo slept for a while and had a strange dream.
In the dream, shrouded in the dark night, there seemed to be a huge monster hidden in the rolling mountains. Beside Chi Xiaoduo was a glowing snake. The huge monster incarnated in darkness opened its roaring mouth and called to Ba Snake.
"time to go… "
"Don't go!" Chi Xiaoduo hugged Ba She's body, Ba She raised her head and looked into the distance suspiciously.
"time to go."
Ba She turned her head again and stared at Chi Xiaoduo.
Chi Xiaoduo woke up suddenly.
Xiang Cheng noticed that Chi Xiaoduo was peeking at him, so he looked down at Chi Xiaoduo.
The bonfire reflected Chi Xiaoduo's face.
"What are you thinking?" Chi Xiaoduo asked.
"It's nothing." Xiang Cheng pressed his warm lips to Chi Xiaoduo's ear, and said, "It's actually a bit dangerous to start a fire. What else is in the bag?"
Chi Xiaoduo took out the map, Xiang Cheng looked at it seriously, and said, "Very good."
Biting the cap of his pen, Xiang Cheng marked several points on the map one by one, and said, "Let's set off later. Follow here, come here..."
Xiang Cheng's pen made four forks along the ridge, and the distance between each two was about ten kilometers.
"Is this the end of the practical exam?" Chi Xiaoduo asked.
"There are four ending points." Xiang Cheng said, "As long as we get out of the mountain, we can leave along this road."
"By the way." Chi Xiaoduo suddenly remembered something. He leaned into Xiang Cheng's ear and whispered something, "When you were not around, someone escaped from prison."
"Who?" Xiang Cheng asked with a frown.
"Cao Bin is going to interrogate the prisoner..." Chi Xiaoduo said softly.
"Who is Cao Bin?" Xiang Cheng asked again.
Chi Xiaoduo explained to him what happened in the driving committee, including Jing Hao, Cao Bin, and so on. Chen Zhen was sleeping opposite them with his arms around Chen Lang. Xiang Cheng didn't say a word the whole time, but just listened carefully. Xiang Cheng didn't nod until Chi Xiaoduo finished speaking.
"Do you know this person?" Chen Zhen opened his eyes and asked.
Xiang Cheng shook his head.
Chi Xiaoduo said: "He can play Gu in Cao Bin's body, is this also his talent?"
"That's not Gu." Xiang Cheng said so.
Chen Zhen's expression changed slightly.
"What is it?" Chi Xiaoduo took out his small notebook, ready to update the entry.
"I don't know." Xiang Cheng said absently, "Leave him alone and continue talking about the route."
"From here to here." Xiang Cheng connected a series of forks with a pen and said, "It will take about eighteen hours."
"Yeah." Chi Xiaoduo nodded, and Xiang Cheng said: "Then we will set off in the middle of the night, you sleep, and I will carry you up the mountain later."
"It's too dark." Chi Xiaoduo said, "It's not safe."
Xiang Cheng waved his hand, and Chi Xiaoduo asked again, "Where is Sigui?"
"Sigui is not a spirit beast." Xiang Cheng replied, "It can't help us in the exam." He looked at his watch as he spoke, and it was half past eight, and it was still possible to sleep for twelve o'clock.
"It's not suitable to go out at twelve o'clock." Chen Zhen said, "It's the most cloudy time."
"You have to go out." Xiang Cheng raised his eyes and said, "It's safer to walk at night."
"No." Keda's face immediately changed, and he said, "It's so dark, and you still have to walk the mountain road?"
"Let's start in the morning." Qi Wei said, "Have you found the route?"
"Leaving in the middle of the night." Xiang Cheng replied.
"In time." Zhou Wanyuan said.
"It's too late." Xiang Cheng replied, "You hostages are holding you back."
"It's as if your hostage is not holding back!" Zhou Wanyuan said angrily.
"Where am I lagging behind!" Chi Xiaoduo said, "I still started the fire."
Everyone stopped talking immediately, since Chi Xiao couldn't do anything, so they all looked at Qi Wei, Qi Wei said: "Don't look at me, I'll listen to the captain."
Da Da: "Xiao Duo, act like a spoiled child, and tell Xiang Cheng not to walk around at night."
"I, I, I... I am a hostage." Chi Xiaoduo said, "I have no right to choose."
Fang Yilan turned over a page in the sketchbook, reached out and touched the paint box a few times, Chen Lang helped her take out the paint, she nodded to express her gratitude, and then directly squeezed a little yellow paint on the paper.
"I think we should listen to Xiang Daxian," she said.
Chen Zhen and Da Keda hesitated for a moment, and Chen Zhen said, "Give us a reason to walk at night."
Zhou Wanyuan thought for a while and said, "Let's go with Xiang Daxian from our team."
"Yeah." Fang Yilan squeezed a little more black paint onto the paper.
Chen Zhen and Da Keda didn't make a statement, Xiang Cheng had one leg bent, and Chi Xiaoduo sat sideways, leaning in his arms, with his back against his knees propped up, leaning against his chest. Xiang Cheng covered Chi Xiaoduo with a camouflage jacket, and only wore a vest on his upper body. Between the ups and downs of breathing, a solid and powerful heartbeat came from under the chest muscles. His body was very hot, which made Chi Xiaoduo warm up a lot.
The sound of rain came from outside, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier.
"Xiang Cheng." Chi Xiaoduo whispered.
Xiang Cheng looked down at him and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Your heart is beating so fast." Chi Xiaoduo touched his chest, Xiang Cheng held his hand, lowered his head, and kissed his short hair.
Chi Xiaoduo suddenly started to have pink bubbles on his head.
"You sleep." Xiang Cheng said, "What are you doing with all this nonsense? Quick, close your eyes, one, two, three, sleep."
"Can't sleep." Chi Xiaoduo said, "It's okay, I slept all the way in the car."
"Is it cold?" Xiang Cheng hugged Chi Xiaoduo a little tighter. Chi Xiaoduo blushed and shook his head. He felt a little wind on the ground, so he pulled up his sleeves and curled up in Xiang Cheng's arms.
"There is another layer in this hole." Chi Xiaoduo whispered.
"Shh." Xiang Cheng signaled him not to speak.
"Xiang Daxian, it won't be twelve o'clock." Fang Yilan said suddenly, "We'd better leave now and get ready for battle."
"What did you hear?" Zhou Wanyuan said warily.
Fang Yilan faced the outside of the cave with her eyes covered, listening to the sound of the rain, she did not turn her head, but turned back slightly to show everyone her sketchbook.
On the white paper, the yellow paint swelled automatically as if alive, spontaneously forming the cave in the depths of them and the firelight inside. The black paint that was squeezed on the other side turned into fog and spread towards the cave, getting closer and closer.
"It came earlier than I expected." Xiang Cheng got up, let Chi Xiaoduo go behind him, and hit the cave wall with the magic pestle.
There was a rustling sound outside, and this time the sound was getting closer, as if something was crossing the entire forest and converging towards them.
"Oh no." Koda said, "I have to get out quickly."
Everyone stood up one after another and stood outside the cave. Koda raised his head, and even the voices rang out from the hillside where he was hiding.
"Xiang Daxian." Zhou Wanyuan said, "Shall we go?"
"Stand there if you want to survive." Xiang Cheng said casually, and then said to Qi Wei, "Qi Wei, please dragon."
Qi Wei understood, pinching his fingers with both hands.
"You can do whatever I ask you later." Xiang Cheng said to Chi Xiaoduo, "No matter what happens, just follow me."
"Of course." Chi Xiaoduo said.
Xiang Cheng pointed at Qi Wei, then pointed at the cave wall, and said, "Explode."
Qi Wei turned his left palm towards himself, and his right hand turned outward, splitting both palms, from the top of his head to the lower dantian, drew a Tai Chi, shouted violently, and at the same time Xiang Cheng shouted loudly: "Run!"
As he spoke, he pulled Chi Xiaoduo out of the cave and retreated quickly. In an instant, the Taiji wheel drawn by Qi Wei turned into a sea of fire like a mirror, and a fire dragon spewing out huge flames roared and rushed out. Xiang Cheng and Chi Xiaoduo rushed out At that moment, Xiang Cheng swung his hand back, and the demon-binding rope flicked out, wrapped around Qi Wei's waist, and dragged him backwards out of the hole!
Everyone swooped down and fell down, and there was a violent explosion in the cave, and the entrance of the cave turned into a dragon's mouth, and a flame that reflected the night sky erupted into the night sky!
The flames are like a powerful flare in the dark and rainy night. Under the effect of the flashlight, the area with a radius of 100 meters can be seen clearly in a blink of an eye, and the scene is in sight.
On hills, rocks, ravines, trees—
— Huge black spiders are approaching here silently, there are thousands of them, and they are crossing the hillside, rolling over the woods, and rushing towards the cave.
"Run!" Chen Zhen said decisively, "Break out!"
Koda shouted: "How to break through! There are too many!"
"All in the hole!" Xiang Cheng shouted.
Lie Yan rushed out like a swallowing dragon's flame, and then retreated into the cave. Xiang Cheng took the lead and rushed in with Chi Xiaoduo. Zhou Wanyuan's group followed closely behind. Chen Zhen looked back, and finally gave up his plan to break out of the siege, and rushed into the cave again together with Da Keda and Chen Lang.
The fire dragon's tail flickered in front of it, and it meandered towards the deeper part of the cave. The army of spiders behind it chased after it, and dozens of them rushed in together in an instant, chasing them in.
Suddenly, the terrain turned steep and entered the open area. The fire dragon suddenly disappeared, and before flying away, it revealed a cave full of bats... Then all the bats were startled together, and they rushed towards them overwhelmingly!
"Ah..." Chi Xiaoduo's foot slipped, and Qi Wei shouted, "Catch me!"
Dense spiders had swarmed into the corridor. Keda held Chen Lang with one hand and Fang Yilan with the other. Zhou Wanyuan shouted, "Be careful!" and then slid down with Master Lei Kuang's collar.
Everyone was sliding down the sloping ramp at high speed, Fang Yilan screamed and was slammed into by a group of bats.
Chen Zhen and Xiang Cheng staggered at the same time while skating, turned around, Chen Zhen sacrificed his heart lamp, and an invisible shock wave exploded towards the spider group rushing forward, pushing all the black monsters back into the narrow passage.
Xiang Cheng: "Look up!"
Chi Xiaoduo: "What... what?"
Xiang Cheng spread his hands and shook the demon-suppressing banner. Inside the demon-suppressing banner was a large stack of talismans. In an instant, the talismans scattered like banknotes and flew above his head.
In an instant, dozens of talismans seemed to be echoing each other, vibrating unceasingly, and dazzling strong lights lit up on the talismans at the same time, and they were connected with jumping electric lights to form a giant net!
Under Fudo Mingwang's Jintie Thunder Light Curse, the power grid flourished, sending out crackling currents, which spread out in a flash.
The lightning bombarded indiscriminately, covering the entire mine amidst the screams of everyone!
