Chapter 336: The Great Fire of the Southern Foothills
It was the first time I'd done a long-distance run since the last time I felt an increase in strength and speed.
Sure enough, my endurance has also increased, and I feel that even if I run more than ten kilometers in a row, I guess I won't even breathe for air.
Not to mention the Moon Spirit, who was still able to make that steady, ethereal song in her mouth as she ran, and soon a large wave of bhikshu birds trailed in the air behind us.
Now it seems that there is a lot of mixing and matching in our camp......
However, although we have strong stamina, after all, our legs are no match for the wheels, and the speed of the road is still much slower than that of riding the motorcycle before, but we can't go back to the three off-road motorcycles now, which will only delay the time even more. And when we really got to the interior of the South Road Mountains, we still couldn't ride motorcycles at that time.
Soon arrived at the previous Tianya Haijiao tourist area, we deliberately ran to the coral statue in the middle to take a look, and found that this side had indeed been hung up with the Z virus spreader again, it seems that Ouyang Jingjing's news is right, and the Blue Bird Company is still "busy" to send people to block the coastline.
I ripped off the spreader from the coral statue and smashed it.
Leaving the tourist area of the end of the world and continuing to walk in the northwest direction, then we found that there was a fire in the distance in the sky, and the bhikshu birds that followed us before also began to riot in an instant, and I noticed that the moon spirit seemed to be a little unable to control the meaning of those birds at this time.
Obviously, the fire is more attractive to these flocks.
It must have been someone from the Blue Bird Company who chased all the way to this southern foothill, and is now setting fire to it over there.
The three of us all used all our strength, Duan Xiaoxiao finally began to show signs of exhaustion in the end, but it was no big deal, I directly let her ride on my neck, and I ran with her.
By the time we reached the foot of the southern foothills, the sky had begun to clear up, but the fire was still unabated, and it felt like someone was planning to burn down the entire southern foothills.
The three of us had followed Du Yue here before, especially Yue Ling's ability to remember the road was very strong, so we quickly swept past the developed resort area in the front mountain, and rushed along the forest path in the direction of the back mountain.
The front hill looked normal, with no signs of destruction, and it looked like the arsonists were indeed running for the Nikites.
Well......
I don't know if we'll be able to wake up the Nikitians after this forest fire and get them to join us.
By now, the flock of bhikshu birds had become completely uncontrollable, and they began to rush towards the flames en masse, and the moon spirit said that now he could only pray that the death and injury of the bhikshu birds would be less.
It is also worth noting that the sky is now beginning to lighten, but these bhikshus can still fly freely in the air, which means that these bhikshus are the same animals we have encountered on the island that are not afraid of the sun......
They flew here across the sea.
Contrary to these bhikshu birds, the dawn of the sky means that the fire in the back of the mountain at the southern foot of the mountain can only play a burning role, and will not attract animals.
It saves us a lot of things, at least not having to deal with the sick animals.
Sure enough, as we ran along the trail, we soon noticed that some animals began to appear nearby that were burrowing into the ground, or looking for shade or caves to hide from the sun, and these animals were now completely devoid of the anger of the evening, and they all looked cowering at this time.
They don't provoke us, and we naturally don't provoke them.
Avoiding the animals along the way, the trail in front of us soon disappeared, and we began to rely on the memory of the moon spirit and the position of the compass on my mountain knife to walk through the forest along the almost vertical mountain wall that we had to climb over to reach the Niki settlement in the back mountain.
The fire apparently began to burn and spread from this side, and almost all the trees near the stone wall were reduced to ashes, and the residual heat from the flames burned all around.
Even the stone wall felt hot, I asked Duan Xiaoxiao to lie on my back, and Yue Ling and the two quickly climbed to the top.
I saw that the flames in the forest above had not yet dispersed.
Many people may not have experienced forest fires with their own eyes, but here is a brief description of what we are looking for.
There are flames everywhere in all directions, the smoke almost obscures half of the sky, and there are a lot of flames flying around, just like the rain of fire, the air is full of harsh heat, and the air around us also gives people a feeling of fluctuating back and forth because of the flames, and in a trance we seem to be sent to purgatory......
In order to prevent our hair, especially Yue Ling and Duan Xiaoxiao's long hair, from being ignited, the three of us wrapped our heads with clothes.
Behind the fire forest in front of you is the settlement of the Niki people, and the fire here has actually been burning for a while, so although the forest is scorching hot, it can still be tolerated to pass through.
Yue Ling and I protected Duan Xiaoxiao in the center, and began to walk back and forth into the fire forest.
Now the only thing that keeps us company is the flock of bhikshus, and I saw that many of them were like moths to a fire, and they plunged into the burning trees and were ignited by the flames......
Normally I would have applauded, but now I just feel like every death of a bhikshu is a bit of a depletion of our strength......
The moon spirit has been trying to use her song to drive away those bhikshu birds, but with little success, and later I simply told the moon spirit to leave those stupid birds alone, and it is more important to find our people.
After a few more steps, we saw the corpses of some members of the Blue Bird Company appear in the forest, and the reason for knowing their identities was that the blue and gray uniforms on these guys had not been completely burned.
Most of these people died from sharp tree spears in the chest and abdomen, and the number of dead seems to be quite large, which shows the fighting power of the Nikites.
When we arrived at the former Niki settlement, we found that it was also a mess, with many corpses scattered on the ground, and there were a lot of Niki corpses here, which made me terrified.
Now there are fires all around here, thick smoke, we don't have the time or the ability to discern if there are any important people in these corpses, I looked around, and soon found that there was a big tree with fewer flames in the direction where we came, I immediately climbed up and used my clothes to extinguish the flames, during which Duan Xiaoxiao had been riding on my neck, I took her to the top of the tree, and asked her to look down at the canopy in front of her to see if she could find a clue.
Soon Duan Xiaoxiao pointed in the direction of due west and shouted, "Over there!
At the same time, Yue Ling seemed to be listening, and she also pointed in the direction of the west and said, "Someone is talking in the west!"
West......
This is where I helped the Nickyians clear a virus area, and we returned to the island on a raft for the second time from this side.
It soon became clear to me that the Niki were planning to retreat to the island.
As for whether those people were Nicky or the Blue Bird Company chasing Nicky, it was not clear.
Fortunately, the fire in the forest to the west was not particularly strong, because it looked like it had been burning in the forest for a while, so I took off my coat and began to take the lead and rush into it.
Flapping the flames on both sides and overhead, you will inevitably be burned by the flames during the process, but you can't care about it so much.
Duan Xiaoxiao has been helping me guide me on my neck, chasing for more than ten minutes, and then I heard a voice in front of me, this is speaking in Chinese Chinese, and it is the voice of several men, then it is sure that it is not Amy them, I smoothly pulled out the mountain knife, and at the same time handed the nail gun to Duan Xiaoxiao behind my head.
The moon spirit beside me pulled out the thorn and sang a few lyrics, only to see a dozen or so bhikshu birds overhead, driven by the song, rush towards the place where they were talking, and then I heard a commotion from there.
"Xiao Chen!!" After Yue Ling finished speaking, he shuttled between the two burning trees in front of him, and I followed.
