Views:

The four members of Xie Sen's team walked all the way, the more they went in, the more lush the vegetation was, the island was surrounded by towering trees, the sky could not be seen when looking up, the ears were full of birds and insects, and the deep forest The roar of wild beasts, and the screams of humans came from time to time.

If there was only one person, the atmosphere would be quite scary. Seeing Maine's tall back in front of him, Xie Sen felt very at ease.

Maine opened the bracelet to take a look from time to time, and occasionally made a sound to remind people to pay attention to their feet, so as to prevent people behind from stepping into the pit.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of dead leaves, and the soil was wet and soft. Every time I stepped on it, there was a slight sinking feeling. Walking like this was very tiring, and the air in the forest was dull. After an hour, Xie Sen was already sweating profusely. Maine's back was also wet with sweat.

Xie Sen was panting, trying to control his breathing to keep up with Maine's footsteps. He looked back at Bai Jiao and Long Teng, Bai Jiao was still clear and light, not sweating at all, and Long Teng was the same as him, with pimples all over his forehead. sweat.

Xie Sen looked at Bai Jiao enviously, turned his head and looked up at the road ahead while wiping his sweat.

"Wow! So beautiful."

Not far from the front right, there is a plant half a person's height among the green trees. On the top of the plant grows a flower the size of a soup bowl. It is fiery red and looks particularly eye-catching. Xie Sen couldn't help but praise it.

While speaking, Maine walked to the side of the flower, and a beast-like mouth suddenly opened in the middle of the flower's petals, bending the branch and biting at Maine's arm.

Xie Sen was stunned by this scene. He took a deep breath and was about to shout 'be careful' when Maine took a step back, raised his foot and kicked sideways, and the flower fell to the ground with his mouth facing the ground.

The branch of the flower was folded into a thin and tall n shape, but it was not broken. The next moment, it bounced like a spring, and the flower opened its mouth and spit out red juice towards Maine.

Xie Sen's eyes widened suddenly, this kind of thing must be poisonous even if he didn't want to.

Maine reacted very quickly and jumped forward to dodge it. Bai Jiao quickly passed Xie Sen, and when the juice was about to fall on the tree trunk opposite the flower, he held an umbrella-shaped object in his hand, and stuck the umbrella surface to the tree trunk superior.

The juice fell into the umbrella, Bai Jiao lifted the umbrella upside down, removed the umbrella surface from the bracket in twos and twos, closed the sides of the umbrella surface, and then took out a string to tie it tightly.

A smile appeared on his clear face: "I've been interested in carnivorous plants for a long time, and this trip really came at the right time."

Long Teng leaned close to his neck to look at the juice collected in his hands, and was about to ask something, so he put his hand on his shoulder, immediately forgot what he wanted to ask, and looked at Bai Jiao in surprise: "Wow, you are so cool!"

Bai Jiao took his hand off his shoulder: "I am born with a cool physique."

Long Teng was full of envy, wiped off his sweat, and simply put his arms around him: "Let's go like this, it won't be so hot next to you."

Bai Jiao put the collected juice into the space, tilted his head to distance himself from Long Teng: "Not good, let go."

Long Teng pouted and estimated the height of the two of them: "Are you tired? Otherwise, I can carry you on my back, I'm not tired."

Bai Jiao frowned: "I'm a female, I can sue you for harassment if you do this."

Long Teng blinked his eyes, quickly withdrew his hand, his baby face was flushed, "I, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"

Bai Jiao was surprised to see him like this, smiled, took out the shovel and shoveled the whole flower out of the ground, put it in the space, and said to Maine: "Hurry up."

Several people continued to move forward and walked for another hour. At twelve o'clock, Long Teng shouted loudly at the end: "I'm so hungry, I want to eat!"

Maine looked at Xie Sen. Xie Sen's black hair was wet with sweat and he was panting heavily. Seeing him looking over, he said with a bitter face, "Tired and hungry."

Maine opened the bracelet and glanced: "Persevere, there is a suitable place for rest not far from the front left."

Five minutes later, the four of them came to the place Maine said, which was a small hill in the forest.

Xie Sen took out the spicy jerky, Long Teng immediately approached, Maine patted him on the shoulder: "I'm going to hunt wild animals, you collect firewood here, and at the same time protect their safety."

Long Teng patted his chest: "Don't worry, wrap it on me."

Xie Sen was a little worried: "Are you going alone?"

"It's okay, I won't go far." Maine said, and disappeared into the forest in twos and threes.

Long Teng moved very neatly, picked up a pile of firewood in a short while, then continued to look at Xie Sen helplessly, Xie Sen handed him a lunch box, and then handed another to Bai Jiao.

"It doesn't matter if you're full, it's just an appetizer."

Long Teng took out a piece of spicy jerky and gnawed on it. He kept chewing on the spicy meat, and said inarticulately, "It's delicious."

Bai Jiao took a bite and said in surprise, "It's delicious!"

Xie Sen smiled and said, "Just like it."

It didn't take long for Maine to come back with two treated hares. Xie Sen asked, "Is there water nearby?"

"Well, but the waterside is not safe." He skillfully skewered the rabbits, held one for himself, and threw the other to Long Teng to roast.

While roasting the rabbit, he was manipulating his personal wristband. Three notification sounds sounded from the wristbands of the rest of his teammates. He said, "I have sent you the map nearby. If you get lost, follow the map."

Xie Sen clicked on the message, and the attachment was a very detailed map. There were four small green dots at their current location.

After Main finished speaking, his brows suddenly frowned, his fingers slid twice on the virtual screen above the bracelet, and then he looked to the right with a sharp expression: "Someone is approaching."

Long Teng instantly became excited: "I'll beat them away!"

Bai Jiao stood up: "We caught up during our lunch break, you are really dedicated." He smiled and turned his head to look at Long Teng, "You barbecue, they give it to me, just in time for me to try the medicine."

Xie Sen was not at ease: "I will go with you."

"No need," Bai Jiao smiled, "I'm fine."

He asked Maine to share the real-time location of the future man with him, then ran into the dense forest on the right, and disappeared among the tall plants in a short while.

He came back in less than five minutes. Seeing that he was fine, Xie Sen heaved a sigh of relief, seeing that the rabbit meat would still be roasted for a while, he sat next to Maine and rested with his legs bent.

He must rest every now and then, otherwise his body will be out of control and it will be very troublesome.

Maine turned his head to look at him, turned his head and continued to roast the rabbit meat, while Long Teng was roasting and nibbling the spicy jerky with a satisfied face, Bai Jiao sat not far from him, and began to close his eyes to rest his mind.

The surroundings are quiet, relaxing and comfortable.

"Ah... it's so itchy!"

"What's going on? Was it bitten by a bug!"

Ten minutes later, there were screams and roars from the right. Xie Sen was fast asleep, and couldn't help frowning, turned his head, and asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, you continue to sleep."

Hearing Maine's voice, Xie Sen was inexplicably relieved, and let himself continue to sleep.

Long Teng looked curiously at Bai Jiao who had opened his eyes with a slight smile on his face, and leaned closer and asked softly, "What did you do?"

Bai Jiao looked at him in surprise, then at the sleeping Xie Sen, with a smile in his eyes, and said softly: "It's nothing, I just sprinkled some itching powder that I made on the way they passed by, it seems to work well .”

Long Teng grinned, showing his bright white teeth, and gave a thumbs up: "You are amazing!"

Bai Jiao smiled and said modestly, "I still need to learn more."

Xie Sen slept for half an hour before being woken up by Maine. He looked at the time and said angrily, "I wasted time."

Maine handed him a rabbit leg: "It's okay, the meat only passes the test, and it's not good to eat raw."

Xie Sen took the rabbit leg, and while eating, he suddenly remembered the scream he heard while he was half asleep, so he asked what was going on.

Long Teng explained to him very quickly, and Xie Sen gave Bai Jiao a thumbs up: "Amazing."

The taste of the outdoor barbecue was not as good as that made at home, but fortunately, there was spicy jerky mixed with it, and the four of them were very satisfied. After they were full, they continued on their way.

The further they went, the more animals they saw on the way, and they encountered two long-haired wild boars one after another, and Long Teng took care of them.

Maine used a dagger to cut off the best meat from them and put them into the space for dinner.

Xie Sen calculated the time in his mind, he only slept for half an hour at noon, and there was only four hours of timeliness. When it was almost half past four, he grabbed Maine's arm.

Maine turned his head: "Uncomfortable?"

Xie Sen apologized, "Can you carry me on your back for half an hour?" He didn't want to hold back at all, but he had no way to deal with his physical problems.

Main squatted straight down, Xie Sen hugged his neck and lay on his back, guiltily said: "Sorry."

His face was next to Maine's neck, and when he spoke, his breath swept across, and Maine's body was slightly stiff.

"It's okay, you're very light." Maine took a deep breath, speaking in a steady and authentic tone.

Long Teng raised his hand and patted Bai Jiao's shoulder. Bai Jiao turned around and saw a big smiling face. Long Teng said, "I'll carry you on my back!"

"No need," Bai Jiao smiled, "Thank you."

Xie Sen was scheduled to arrive at five o'clock, and he didn't care about anything else, so he fell asleep on Maine's back. He thought it would be difficult for him to fall asleep because of his discomfort, but he didn't expect to fall asleep soon.

He was woken up by the alarm clock at five o'clock, and he rubbed his face subconsciously. When he realized where he was, his face turned red, but luckily the surroundings had already darkened.

He patted Maine on the shoulder: "Thank you, let me down?"

"I can continue to carry you, I won't be tired." Compared with a beast that weighs several hundred catties, Xie Sen is really too light.

"It's okay, I've already rested."

Maine put Xie Sen down, and there was no one on his back. He couldn't help frowning, feeling that something was missing, and looked back from time to time, only to be relieved when he saw Xie Sen.

At 5:30, the forest was so dark that you could barely see your fingers. A few people walked for another half an hour with the lights. The howling of the wild animals around them became louder and louder. From time to time, you could see the green fields in the distant night. Eye.

Maine said: "I can't go any further, it will be very dangerous to go on."

They are like bright targets, and there may be wild beasts rushing towards them at any time.

The four of them found an open space nearby and started a fire on the spot. Bai Jiao and Xie Sen had a barbecue, and Maine and Long Teng collected a lot of firewood nearby, enough for one night.

A few people were eating meat, and suddenly there were shouts of humans and roars of beasts on the right, and at the same time, the ground shook.

Maine's expression turned cold, and he stood up abruptly.

After a while, four tall boys ran to their resting place, and the one in front shouted: "They ran away!"

"The group of hyenas will catch up soon, what should we do?" a person behind shouted.

"They must be nearby. We brought the beast here as ordered. We have completed the task! Send a distress signal!"

"It's over, the signal can't be sent out!"

"Quick, flare!"
