Chapter 8: Between Life and Death
This is the third time that Gao Jing has entered the big world.
In order to explore this magical world, he invested a total of nearly 30,000 yuan.
Not much, but more than all of my savings.
As a result, he didn't earn a penny back now, and lost half of his equipment assets in a blink of an eye.
But that didn't really hit Gao Jing.
He was ready to die in this world.
What is the loss of a drone in comparison?
On top of that, the Mavic2's last-minute footage points the way to the high view.
On both sides of the west and south are boundless primeval forests.
If you go in these two directions, it is estimated that you may not be able to get out in this life.
To the north, there are rolling mountains, which are undoubtedly a moat for the high view.
Only in the east, Gao Jing saw a large plain and a river that meandered like a jade belt.
In fact, his current location is already on the edge of the forest.
And not in the depths.
So the Mavic2's sacrifice was totally worth it.
Otherwise, Gao Jing will continue to go in the original direction, and will only go deeper and deeper into the dangerous forest.
Retracting the remote control into his backpack, he didn't immediately head east.
Because it was starting to get dark.
It's simply not realistic to get out of the forest before dark, and Gao Jing doesn't have the head to travel at night.
Time stands still in both worlds, so don't want to avoid the dangerous night when you return to the Overworld.
What's more, the chance of teleportation is less than once.
So staying overnight here became a must.
Gao Jing chooses to go up the tree.
The thick vines wrapped around the towering trees became the best climbing tools, and with his vigorous skills, Gao Jing climbed all the way up to a height of fifty or sixty meters.
Everything in this world is ten times bigger, and there is no sense of security without such height.
By the time he settled down on the branches, it was already dark.
At night, the forest takes on a completely different look from the daytime.
It is not dark, many plants and flowers emit a hazy glow, red or blue or purple or yellow, and the colorful light is intertwined, like a veil of dreamy fog for the forest.
The beauty of Russi.
Fireflies appeared.
They fly out of the grass they inhabit and flutter lightly in the air.
Clusters of fireflies form dragon-like bands of light, accompanied by the chirping of insects, shuttling between the trees.
Everything looks so good.
Whew~
However, this beauty was soon broken by the roar of the beast in the distance!
The same howl grew more and more intense, and approached Gao Jing's location.
Ten minutes later, a large, three, small, and four-headed beast first appeared in his sight.
From a condescending point of view, they look like wild boars, fat and strong, and they are out of breath.
These wild boars have grayish-white fangs and black spines on their backs, which resemble porcupines.
The largest of them all, the boar is almost 10 meters tall at the shoulder, equivalent to the height of a three-story building, and its body length is more than 20 meters.
This is the first time Gao Jing has seen the beasts in the big world, and he is particularly shocked!
But Gao Jing also had a faint feeling that they seemed to be running for their lives?
The mystery will soon be revealed!
Only four or five minutes later, black figures swept in.
It's a wolfbeast.
The size of the wolf beast is obviously not as large as that of the big boar, but there are at least hundreds of them, and when they come together, they seem to be like a black torrent, rushing from below the high view!
Gao Jing couldn't help but hold his breath, and his heart beat hard.
The wolves came and went quickly, and disappeared into the depths of the forest in the blink of an eye.
It took a long time for Gao Jing's heartbeat to return to normal.
His courage is very big, if he were another ordinary person, it would be possible to be scared to pee on the spot.
After the wolves left, the forest returned to peace.
But the fireflies hid and never reappeared.
Silver-white moonlight shines silently on Gao Jing's body through the gaps in the canopy.
There is a sun and a moon in this world, but because of the obscuration of the leaves, you can't see the whole picture.
He leaned against the nest of the tree, looking up at the sky as far as he could see.
This exotic starry sky.
Gao Jing didn't sleep at night, and survived the long night with his eyes open.
Many animals can climb trees or live on trees, and even if they don't encounter such animals, if they are bitten by some poisonous insect centipede in their sleep, they may burp on the spot.
Gao Jing is not sure that the mosquito repellent water sprayed on his body and the snake repellent powder sprinkled around him can deal with all the snakes, insects, mosquitoes and ants in this world.
After dawn, he fills his stomach with breakfast in the tree and drinks a cup of self-heating coffee.
After adjusting the state, Gao Jing returned to the ground.
Heading east.
On the woodland, there are messy footprints everywhere.
These were the footprints left by the wolves last night, and they had come from the east, migrating to the west side of the forest.
Gao Jing felt very safe instead.
And so it was, and he trekked for five or six hours, resting a few times along the way.
None of the beasts were encountered.
The only trouble was the crypt spider, the kind of big black spider that Gao Jing had killed last time.
The Crypt Spider is Gao Jing's own name.
They always sneak up in hidden crypts, spitting spider silk at their passing prey.
Gao Jing was taken as a prey several times.
But Gao Jing, who already had experience, was not afraid, and rushed over as soon as he was entangled in spider silk.
Hand up and knife down.
Click!
A slash and a hiss!
In the afternoon, the already dense woods become sparse, and the number of vine roots is much less.
I'm about to get out of the forest!
Gao Jing's heart was filled with a trace of joy, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
After continuing to march for half an hour, a rocky mountain blocked his way.
The mountain is two or three hundred meters high, belonging to the branch veins of the northern mountains, with rocky rocks and sparse vegetation.
Among the huge rocks, there are caves of all sizes.
The largest of these caves is located in front of Takakei, with a diameter of thirty or forty meters.
The darkness was deep.
The front of the cave was littered with wolf claw tracks, as well as large piles of excrement.
Fresh and dry.
Gao Jing estimated that this cave was probably a wolf's den, the home of the wolves and beasts that inhabited last night.
But it is not known why they migrated overnight.
Although the wolves have left, Gao Jing has no idea of exploring the wolf's den.
He was ready to bypass the rocky mountain, which was difficult to climb.
As a result, as soon as he took a few steps, Gao Jing stopped moving forward.
He suddenly had a creepy feeling.
This feeling is very strong, like a weak prey being targeted by a ferocious beast.
Instinctive fear!
Dangerous!!
Gao Jing slowly stepped back step by step.
He didn't see the source of the danger, but the fear grew.
Sweat the size of a bean grain came out of Gao Jing's forehead and slid down his cheeks.
He tried his best to keep his composure and put the knife back into its scabbard.
Remove the hunting crossbow from the backpack with the backhand.
This crossbow has an effective range of up to 120 meters and is equipped with a laser sight, which is quite lethal.
Gao Jing had only practiced using it before.
With a slightly trembling hand, he wound the hunting crossbow.
Sizzle!
At this moment, it was as if a hissing sound from the Netherworld came to Gao Jing's ears.
A large red snake swam out of the dark shadows of the wolf's cave.
Its body was the size of a sea bowl, about seven or eight meters long, and the snake's body was covered with fiery red scales.
Dense layers on top of each other.
Strangely, on its high triangular serpent's head, there are also two curved golden horns.
A pair of scarlet eyes the size of copper bells stared at Gao Jing, and the big snake opened its bloody mouth and spat out a long snake letter.
Sizzle!
The magic sound entered his ears, and Gao Jing froze.
Danger!Danger!Run!Run!!
His brain was desperately warning him, but his body stiffened as if it had been petrified by magic.
Can't move at all.
The red serpent approached Gao Jing unhurriedly, and his eyes showed a mocking look of cat and mouse.
In its eyes, Gao Jing is undoubtedly a delicious dinner!
Although the smell is a little strange.
And the high scene, which is about to be reduced to a meal, is about to despair.
He didn't understand why he couldn't act, but he knew death was imminent.
There is a great terror between life and death!
Gao Jing, who dares to explore the big world, is not afraid of death, but he is never willing to be swallowed by the big snake without resistance.
Turn into a pile of filthy snake dung!
"No!"
He let out a roar of rage in his heart.
At this time, the copper anchor clinging to the chest suddenly changed!
