Volume 1: The Journey of the Emerald Rough Chapter 111: Magical Nature

Seeing everyone looking at him puzzled, Hong Ying said slowly: "We didn't jump into the river at that time!"

"You didn't jump into the river?"

Everyone was stunned.

Jumping down from the cliff, not jumping into the river, but still flying into the sky?

Wu Shuang hurriedly asked, "Then where did you jump at that time?"

"At that time, the sky was too dark, we all thought that there was a river under the cliff, and we all jumped off the cliff with the heart of death, but we didn't expect that there was a hole under the cliff!"

Hong Ying snorted coldly: "They must all think we are dead!"

Ge Jun sighed and said: "The outside world did rumor that you were forced to jump off the cliff collectively at the earliest, and your life and death were unknown, and it was said that you had no life after jumping off the cliff in the past two days!"

"That's going to disappoint them!"

Hong Ying sneered, and immediately told the story of escaping back after jumping off the cliff.

It turned out that because it was dark at that time, looking down from the edge of the cliff, I only saw the reflection of the river below, and I thought that the cliff was unfathomable from the bottom, but I didn't notice that the position of the cliff was a platform extending outward.

When Hong Ying jumped closer to the abyss outside the cliff, he was in free fall and was suddenly stopped in mid-air by a vine growing under the cliff platform, and rolled down the vine.

After stopping rolling, Hong Ying found that his teammates who had jumped off the cliff just now were all looking at him with surprise on their faces.

Hong Ying got up, and with the help of the hazy moonlight, he saw that he was at the mouth of a cave, and above him was a cliff that sloped outward.

Each of the vines that stopped him just now was as thick as an arm, and a huge net of impermeable wind was woven between the big trees that extended outward at the entrance of the cave, and he and the others were stopped by this huge net of vines about a meter away from the cliff that extended diagonally!

I don't know how many years this vine has grown, in addition to being big and thick enough, it is also layer upon layer, layer by layer, interlaced together, and there is no withering phenomenon, it looks like a surface that extends up from the platform at an angle, so that after everyone is stopped, it is in a state of rolling down at the same time, directly buffering the gravity generated by the fall!

Hearing the sound of gunfire on the cliff, everyone walked into the cave with excitement and trepidation.

It was found that the cave was very large, and water droplets continued to seep out of each crack, forming a small pool on the ground, and everyone was surprised and delighted.

Waiting until dawn, everyone found in despair that the platform of this cave was surrounded by cliffs on both sides.

Thinking that since everyone was not injured after jumping, the location should not be far from the top of the cliff, so he arranged for someone to carefully climb up from the huge net formed by the vines to the place where they fell.

I found that although it was not too far from the top of the cliff, because the cliffs were all smooth rock formations, I couldn't climb up at all, and I didn't even have a focus point!

Looking down, there is a vague river at the bottom, and the actual distance from the river surface cannot be judged at all.

After all the people summed up, they decided to reject the idea of going down, because they found that even if they connected all the vines that could be used, it would be difficult to reach the river at the bottom of the cliff, let alone the danger of climbing down.

Just when everyone was at a loss, a bee monkey with round and large eyes, brown belly, and black-brown rings on its eyes and ears suddenly ran out of the dark cave.

When the bee monkey saw the people at the entrance of the cave, he turned around in fright and ran into the cave.

Everyone was overjoyed to see the bee monkey that suddenly appeared and ran back.

Bee monkeys like to move in the pelagic layer on the tall tree trunks in the primeval forest, but they are notoriously lazy and very slow, usually curled up in a ball shape to hide in large tree cavities or rest on the branches, and rarely go to the ground.

The cliffs on all sides were not suitable for bee monkeys at all, and its coming out of the cave meant that there must be a passage to the forest outside.

At that moment, everyone took out lighters, held them up and ran behind the bee monkey into the cave.

I don't know how long I ran, but everyone followed the bee monkey out of a hole that was only four or five meters above the ground, and the hole was covered with dense plants, and the bee monkey jumped directly onto a big tree and disappeared.

When everyone slid down the vines at the entrance of the cave to the ground, they heard the chirping of the phoenix bird in the distance, and the sound was stopped by three calls, Hong Ying and the others immediately responded with the same thrush call, and soon the injured team members who left last night appeared.

It turned out that these injured team members who were let go by Yanlin were leaving the encirclement of the enemy, so they shouted to Hong Ying and others to remind them of the safe position and distance, and then they kept hiding in the mountains not far away, constantly paying attention to the enemy's movements.

Listening to the sound of fierce battle coming from the original forest, they were anxious, but they had nothing to do, so they could only do it in a hurry.

It wasn't until after dawn that they dared to cautiously send out the secret call of the phoenix and the bird, while looking for Hong Ying and the others everywhere.

As soon as the two groups of people who survived saw each other, they couldn't help but hug each other with red eyes.

Fearing that the enemy would be unwilling, they would follow the path they had come from to look for the wounded who had been released last night, and now they would support each other and go around the road they had come from to return to Wu Bang.

In the primeval forest, there were cliffs and rivers everywhere, and slowly they went farther and farther, and finally they didn't even know where they were going, so they could only rely on the direction of Wu Bang on the compass to walk wildly.

Gradually, the dry food he had brought with him was also eaten, and the medicine was also used up.

Because they didn't eat it, some team members were poisoned and died when they tried to eat wild fruits, and they dared to pick and eat the fruits that the monkeys had eaten later.

Along the way, they were attacked by colonies of poisonous ants with their fingers, attacked by poisonous snakes, and strayed into a miasma-filled area......

When they returned to Wubang, there were only one hundred and fifty-two people left, including Hong Ying, and all of them were injured.

There were 113 wounded who were let go by the enemy, and in the end, 57 people, including Hong Ying, survived the cliff jump, which means that 18 people were lost on the way back!

The team of 501 people who originally transported jade materials lost a total of 349 people in this attack!

And these people are all the elites carefully selected by Wu Bangzhong!

Listening to the whole process, everyone was grief-stricken.

For a moment, the whole courtyard was filled with low sobs of sadness.

Wu Shuang's eyes were red with resentment, and he smashed his fist on the jade rough stone beside him, and the surface of the rough stone was suddenly covered with cracks, and a trace of blood flowed out of his fist, but he didn't realize it.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

Hong Ying sobbed and said: "The jade material is gone, and the people are gone......"

His heart hurt as if he had been picked up.

The more than 300 living lives that we had been with day and night were gone.

And this channel, which is full of hope for the entire Wu Bang, and secretly transports jade materials out for realization, is also completely gone.

Liu glanced at the sad crowd and sighed leisurely.

It looks like it's going to be peaceful again!

Ge Jun comforted: "Hong Ying, don't blame yourself too much, I can't blame you for this, you have done a good job!"

"Yes, Captain, if it weren't for you, we wounded people would have died long ago!"

"Didn't you blow up all those jade materials? they won't get them anyway!"

"It's all up to you, we can't survive, otherwise we would have been besieged and killed by them a long time ago......"

"Yes, it's all up to you to drag behind, we can reduce casualties and break through smoothly......"

The surviving team members around him comforted Hong Ying with tears in their eyes.

"We were able to reduce casualties, thanks to that sniper!"

Hong Ying grinned miserably, remembering the sniper he had encountered in the jungle.

If it weren't for his appearance and letting the enemy army adopt the stupid way of besieging but not attacking, he and the others would have been wiped out long ago!

For the mysterious sniper who pursued him, Hong Ying was a little grateful in his heart.

"Snipers for you?"

Wu Shuang was stunned.

"No! That sniper is an enemy ...... He's a master!"

Hong Ying shook his head and said, "They sent that sniper to kill me, but I didn't feel like they were their people when I saw that sniper." ”

"What does that sniper look like?"

Wu Shuang asked with a frown.

He knows Hong Ying's marksmanship well, and there are less than one slap in the hands of the surrounding forces who can surpass Hong Ying's marksmanship, and basically everyone has fought with each other and is familiar with each other.

This person who can be called a master by Hong Ying is definitely not simple, and Hong Ying has never seen it, is it a newly born sniper?

But every qualified sniper, in addition to his own talents, needs to be piled up with a lot of ammunition.

It can be said that it is very difficult to train a qualified sniper!

"That man is very young, how can you say it......"

Hong Ying recalled and said, "His endurance is very strong, and his eyes give people a cold feeling......

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Hong Ying, what kind of physiognomy description is this!

Wu Shuang asked a little speechlessly, "Then why do you think he is not one of theirs?"

"Because when I fought him, I felt that his marksmanship was very decent, and it was by no means like the wild way in the surrounding forces...... He gave me the feeling that he had been trained rigorously since childhood!"

Hearing Hong Ying's words, Wu Shuang and Ge Jun couldn't help but glance at each other.

If that's the case, I'm afraid the identity of this sniper is not so simple!

This kind of person is a treasure, and he will not easily join the battlefield directly, let alone confront people head-on.

They are all responsible for harassing the enemy before the battle, demoralizing the enemy, and only hiding in the shadows to kill the most powerful person or the leader of the enemy.

The two of them were puzzled as to why the sniper didn't appear early to kill Hong Ying and the others, but attacked when Hong Ying and the others broke through.

"You should eat well first, and then go back to heal after eating...... I'll talk about the rest of the matter when you're healed. ”

Wu Shuang looked at Hong Ying and the others and sighed leisurely.

Liu thought for a while, and said to Wu Shuang and Ge Jun: "General Wu, Mr. Ge, can you take a step to speak." ”

"Good!"

Ge Jun and Wu looked at each other, and followed Liu Yiyan towards the small courtyard with doubts.

Ge Jun had a faint bad premonition.
