Chapter 174: Another Encounter with the Marching Ants

Looking at Gu Xiaole's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Ning Lei thought that he had no face to speak, and snorted softly:

"If you are sick, go to the specialized hospital as soon as possible to have a look, so as not to delay the lifelong happiness of other girls when you get married in the future!"

Hey, this guy, Miss Ning, actually started to teach Gu Xiaole a lesson.

Gu Xiaole smiled slightly, and didn't argue with her more, just nodded and said:

"Well, I suddenly thought of a way not to go to the hospital and not delay my daughter-in-law's lifelong happiness in the future!"

"What's the method?" Ning Lei stopped the machete in her hand and looked at him suspiciously.

"Hehe, isn't that simple? Just like you and your college tutor, don't you have some kind of white camel-like love!"

"You ......" Ning Lei's face turned red with anger, and she no longer spoke, but continued to wave the machete in her hand and chop the vines in front of her......

In this way, the two of them teased the poor mouth while continuing to move forward in the depths of the jungle......

As they went deeper and deeper, the ground beneath them began to turn from muddy to dry, and birdsong and insect chirping began to be heard around them.

"Hear me, it seems that the impact of that tsunami is very small.

It looks like I won't be able to go far before I can spot a lot of animals, and my hunting plan will be realized!"

Hearing Gu Xiaole say this, Ning Lei also had joy on her face, but although she could hear some movement here,

But neither the birds nor the beasts had seen a shadow of them, and it looked like these creatures were still hiding deeper in the jungle.

So they continued on their way, and it was not long before they found that in the middle of the desert island was a mountain range that was not too high, and they had now reached the foot of this peak.

"There's actually a mountain here? Look at it, this mountain is right in the middle of this desert island! What do you think there will be on the mountain?" Ning Lei asked suspiciously, looking up at the hillside.

Gu Xiaole also carefully observed the entire mountain, and finally shook his head and said:

"It's hard to say, this mountain peak may be an active volcano, and this desert island under our feet may have been formed by the lava accumulation from this volcano's eruption. ”

Gu Xiaole's analysis Ning Lei also agreed very much, but this still couldn't explain the source of the strange sounds they heard twice in a row......

"Could it be that there is any strange terrain in this mountain?" Ning Lei asked again.

"I don't know that, why do you ask?"

"Because when I was in China, I went to a scenic spot somewhere in the southwest, where there is a scenic spot called the manger.

It is said that the terrain there is steep, and every time it rains and winds on a cloudy day, there will be a strange sound in the valley.

It seems that there are thousands of troops and horses fighting each other there, and there are many old people in the local area who say that it was once an ancient battlefield, and many people have been killed in battle for thousands of years!

So there is a legend that the Yin spirit is haunting the Yin soldiers and borrowing the way......"

"Oh, there is this kind of landscape, hey, it's good to have money! You can travel everywhere......" Hearing this, Gu Xiaole inevitably said enviously.

"Don't interrupt me yet, I'm not done yet! Later, many scholars went to investigate.

Some people say that the geological environment of this attraction is special, and the earth contains iron oxide, which can be similar to the tape in our tape recorder.

You can record some of the sounds that happened when the weather is special, and when the time comes, the tapes will play back the sounds.

So everyone can hear the shouts of fighting on the ancient battlefield......"

"Ha, I don't believe it! Besides, even if the geological environment is special enough to record sound, the tape can be overwritten.

After so many years, the part of the ancient battlefield that was recorded back then has not been covered by the sound behind it?"

Gu Xiaole smiled, and exposed his true nature as a science man again.

"Cut, believe it or not! I'm just saying a hypothesis! Let's go, I won't find anything at the foot of the mountain, let's go up the mountain!"

Ning Lei, who had become accustomed to this, waved her hand, and the two of them continued to move forward.

It's just that it's already very difficult to walk on the plains just now, but this time it's changed to going up the mountain.

Although the mountain is not very steep, it is much more difficult to climb than in place, and the mountain is densely covered with jungle and vines.

So in a few clicks, Ning Lei, who was walking in front, couldn't swing the machete a little......

On the contrary, Gu Xiaole, who grew up in his hometown mountain village, had an obvious advantage, he reached out and took the machete in Ning Lei's hand and waved his hand, signaling her to go to the back and open the way by herself.

Already drenched in sweat, Ning Lei didn't fight with him anymore, and obediently followed behind......

Sure enough, they advanced less than 50 meters up the mountain, and a large number of wild animals were found around the jungle.

Some hares, yellow sheep, some wild antelopes or elk, and from time to time a few pheasants flew up from the bushes in front of them......

"Wow, there are so many small animals here, we don't have to worry about food!" Ning Lei clapped her hands excitedly and said.

"There are a lot of small animals, but these animals seem to have been startled by the previous waves, and they all seem to be a little panicked.

I'm afraid it's not easy to catch......" Although Gu Xiaole said so, he still took out the blow arrow he was carrying and began to try to catch these guys.

Sure enough, these wild animals seemed to be frightened birds, and they ran away without a trace at the slightest hint of wind and grass.

Even an old hunter like Gu Xiaole missed again and again, and it took a long time to finally shoot a pheasant.

It's just that the pheasant actually flapped its wings and flew out for nearly 10 meters before it fluttered and fell to a big tree.

"Great, it's finally a harvest!" Ning Lei excitedly ran to the big tree, ready to reach for the pheasant hanging on the branch.

"Don't move!" Gu Xiaole in the back suddenly shouted, which frightened Ning Lei into a spirit, and her body stopped.

"What's wrong? Is there a snake?"

What Ning Lei is most afraid of in this dense forest is that a poisonous snake will suddenly appear to attack her......

"No, if you take a closer look at that big tree, why is it a little weird?" Gu Xiaole had already walked to Ning Lei's side at this time, and pulled her with his hand to make her a little farther away from the big tree.

"Weird?" Ning Lei took a closer look and found that this big tree was indeed a little strange,

The color of the trunk underneath the big tree is normal, except that the upper half of the trunk is indeed pitch black.

"This big tree can't be scorched after being struck by lightning, right?" asked Ning Lei.

"Scorched?" Gu Xiaole glanced back at her, and with a slight smile, he casually broke off a branch and touched the pitch-black trunk of the tree.

Suddenly, an amazing scene happened, and the black on the big tree actually moved!

"What's that?" Ning Lei exclaimed, but just as she shouted, the blackness seemed to hear something, and she began to be agitated.

And along the trunk of the large tree began to spread rapidly downward......

"It's not good, run, this big tree is full of resting marching ants!" Gu Xiaole threw away the small branch in his hand, pulled Ning Lei, who was still staying aside, and turned around and ran......
