Chapter 36: The Grand Canyon
The sound of the whistle sounded like that of putting your thumb and forefinger in your mouth, and I hurriedly told everyone to lower their bodies.
Then we heard the whistle sound several more times, but there was no movement around us.
"Shhhhhh
A few of us nodded.
Then the whistle sounded again, and it seemed to be much closer to us.
"Quick! Hide in the woods!" Duan Long ordered, "Look who it is!"
We soon hid in the bushes in front of us, where there were so many mosquitoes that I heard a few people "oops".
I'm fine, though......
Of course, I didn't want anyone else to notice this phenomenon on me, so I also pretended to slap the mosquitoes around me.
It didn't take long for me to faintly see a few people in the dense forest ahead.
That's right, these people are wrapped in those long fur coats.
This was the first time Duan Long and the others had seen this kind of person, and their eyes widened in surprise at this time.
"So you didn't lie?" then I saw Duan Long say to me with a suppressed voice.
"Damn! you always thought I was lying to you?" I was about to continue talking, when Amy pinched me hard, and I closed my mouth.
There were three "weirdos" this time, and the three guys were gesturing to each other, and then they were seen to come together, and then crouched down and began to check what was going on.
Duan Long immediately suppressed his voice and told us to separate and outflank them.
As soon as we left, we saw that the three "weirdos" actually stood up immediately.
A few of us were startled, thinking we had been discovered, but instead of looking at us, the three guys continued to walk deeper into the woods, looking unhurried.
"Quick! keep up!" Duan Long waved his hand, and then walked forward quickly.
I know he's afraid of losing it, but if he moves this way, if there is a trap on the ground, he will be 100% hit.
Amy had the same idea as me, and also whispered for them to follow, but these guys were as excited as if hunters had seen their prey when they saw those "weirdos", and they didn't listen to me and Amy's dissuasion at all, but the pace accelerated, and Duan Long rushed to the front first.
Only He Yunsong is still clear-headed, and he has always followed Amy as closely as I did.
Fortunately, there didn't seem to be any traps in the dense forest, and we quickly ran to the spot where the "weirdos" were squatting, but there was no trace of anything on the ground.
"Quick! keep following!" Duan Long had already picked up the spear I gave him at this time: "Catch up with them!"
Duan Long's voice was very high, and it seemed that he had given up covert tracking.
I thought to myself, why is this guy so unbreathable? If we follow them quietly, we might be able to find their lair, and if we alarm them now, it will be very uncertain.
Sure enough, the three "weirdos" in the distance immediately turned to look at us, but they didn't run away when they saw us, they just continued to stand there and wait for us.
Duan Long didn't care so much now, only to hear him roar like thunder, and quickly rushed over with his few people.
Amy and I looked at each other, and then we heard Amy say, "Let's go, let's go, watch your step!"
I nodded, and followed.
The main reason for this is that there are too many vines and shrubs on the ground, so I can only use my mountain opener to slash forward as I go.
However, there should be no traps in such terrain.
As we approached the three "weirdos", we saw them suddenly turn around and continue walking towards the depths.
We chased it all the way down until we got straight out of the woods.
To the south of this forest is a large area of broken rock of different heights, full of all kinds of rocks, without any trees, and all that catches your eye is a large area of gray and yellow.
The wind was also very strong, and the air was mixed with a strong smell of sea, which made my eyes tingle.
Looking at the three "weirdos" just now, they had already run to a distance of more than a hundred meters from us, and were still staring at us, and then I saw one of the guys shouting at us "Ulala", and the other two people also shouted.
Duan Long seemed to be annoyed, and chased after him again with his spear, and the others followed suit.
I saw that the three "weirdos" immediately turned around and ran away, these guys knew at a glance that they were used to walking in this place, climbing the wall like walking on the ground, and we were much worse, because the ground here was extremely uneven, if you accelerated to run, there would be a danger of breaking your feet at any time.
Soon the "weirdos" got rid of us completely, and we watched as the three guys disappeared from our sight.
However, Duan Long was still unwilling, we continued to walk carefully in the direction where the three "strange people" left, and then we saw a large canyon in front of us, the depth of this canyon was measured to be hundreds of meters, the width was at least more than two hundred meters, and the length was even more than the end, I felt that this canyon seemed to span the east and west ends of the island, it was very spectacular.
Similarly, the canyon is made of desolate rocks.
He Yunsong said that the canyon was clearly formed by the movement of the earth's crust, and even the entire island could have been formed in this way, but the movement was most violent here.
Standing on the top of the canyon and looking to the opposite side, we found that there was still a large forest on the opposite side, but this canyon cut off our way, and we had to find a way around the canyon if we wanted to reach the opposite side.
The only thing that puzzles us now is, where are those three "weirdos" hiding?
Did they jump off the canyon?
It's unlikely, after all, I've fought with these guys, they're just ordinary people, and they don't have wings, so if you jump, you can't fall into a powder fracture?
Duan Long seemed to be extremely angry that these people slipped out from under our noses, and even asked us all to spread out again for a carpet search, saying that there must be hidden caves, tunnels and other things in this place.
"Don't search for it. I said, "It's getting dark......
"Yes, Brother Long. He Yunsong also said: "The safety of the camp is also very important, we have been walking for so long, and it is also very dangerous for us to be in the wild after dark." ”
Duan Long said reluctantly: "That's okay, let's go back today, anyway, we've already explored the place, let's come again tomorrow at dawn!"
A few of us quickly went back the way we came, in fact, we were already a little disoriented when we tracked down those "weirdos" just now, and if it weren't for the compass on the mountain knife in my hand, I'm afraid it would have taken a lot of trouble.
It was almost dusk now, and we all tried to speed up our feet. However, when approaching the previous trap, Amy used a wooden stick to find the way in front of us to be on the safe side, and finally returned to the northern coast of the island we were familiar with without danger, and we even passed by the camp in the forest and the SOS sign we had built earlier.
Lin Hai's camp is now basically only a few traces of the tent they built, and everything else has been blown away by the sea breeze, which also means that Lin Hai's five people have not come back at all since they separated from us, and I can't help but feel that they are more than lucky.
Our SOS markers were covered in bird droppings, but there was nothing else, and there was not the slightest sign of a rescue team.
I walked all the way along the beach towards Duan Long's camp, I haven't seen you for most of the day, and I miss Chen Mengyu, Zhou Qiqi and Xia Ran a little. Especially Chen Mengyu, she seems to have already defaulted to her as my person, and I now almost care about her like my daughter-in-law.
However, as soon as we got close to the camp, we realized that something was wrong.
