After a quick glance, Li Fan's expression couldn't help but change, he knew that the scene he saw was definitely not an illusion, so he felt a burst of creepy.

Because the black shadow that flashed just now was obviously not an animal in the jungle, but a person.

"John, there's a dark shadow following us. Li Fan directly reminded him.

John's face turned white in an instant, and he immediately turned around and looked around warily: "Where? Is it a wild man?"

Li Fan said: "No...... That one...... How can I describe it to you......"

He organized his language a little: "I say it's a dark shadow, not because I didn't see it clearly, but because it's black and slippery, like charcoal, and it's lying on its stomach in the tree, and I suspect it's the sound you heard in the morning." ”

"What do you mean? You see monkeys? There are no black people in this damn place!" John's panic was written all over his face.

"......" Li Fan: "There are no blacks in this place, and even if there are, they are definitely not indigenous here." ”

Having said that, Li Fan was ready to fight.

His instinct told him that what was in front of him might be more dangerous than that of the Savages.

"It's like a ten-year-old child, but it's undoubtedly an adult, but it's not a dwarf, it's strange...... It's like a trumpet person, and it's black from head to toe all over the body, not the kind of skin color that a black person can have, but the kind of pitch black that paint can spray. Seventy percent may have been coated with black dye on every inch of the body, two percent were wearing a special garment, and one percent could have ...... He was born like this. ”

Li Fan explained to John what he saw, and at the same time analyzed what the thing was.

John nervously stopped Li Fan: "What are you going to do...... If it's not in immediate danger, I don't think we'd better take the initiative to provoke the unknown creatures, and run away. ”

"It's not dangerous, so did it come over all the way to propose to you?" Li Fan couldn't cry or laugh.

John gradually retreated behind Li Fan and lowered his body, as if he would shoot a poisonous dart at him at any time: "Gu Tian, now is not the time to joke. ”

Li Fan couldn't help laughing: "I'll introduce someone to you another day, you can learn what is a joke......"

He couldn't help but think of the monkey, if only he were here, this guy would never leave the gun no matter when, even if he was injured and had a gun in his hand, his combat effectiveness would not drop too much.

Unlike himself, he can only pick stones at critical moments.

Before he could say the last word, he threw out the stone in his hand, and in the next second, a black shadow fell from between the dense branches of the trees and fell to the ground.

John looked up for a moment, puzzled, "How did you hit it?" I didn't see anything. ”

Li Fan didn't answer this question, but just waved his hand to signal John to follow, and as he approached the unknown creature, he said, "I hit the leg, which can keep it alive, but it can't escape." ”

He laughed, "If it really just wants to propose to you, it can still get down on one knee and give you a ring." ”

John pouted, "The joke wasn't so funny the second time." ”

When they came to the tree, the sight was not so funny, because there was no trace of the unidentified creature at all.

"Looks like it can get away with a shot in the knee?" said John this time.

Li Fan glanced around, the black creature was nowhere to be found, he squatted down, stared at a small puddle of black liquid on the ground, and didn't dare to touch it with his hands, just leaned in and sniffed: "Do you think this is its blood?"

John also observed his surroundings and replied, "If it's blood, it will drip all the way when it escapes, but you see, there are no footprints, no black drops of blood, not even a trace of climbing the tree." ”

Li Fan's eyes narrowed: "So...... It stopped the bleeding in a matter of seconds, and then flew out silently, directly escaping a distance of more than fifty meters. ”

John looked self-defeating, and said casually: "There is also an explanation, as long as a part of it is shot, the whole body will evaporate in an instant, and in the end only this little black water will be left." ”

Li Fan stood up: "Let's go on, I hope you are right." ”

Although they have temporarily gotten rid of the black unknown creature, the cloud of suspicion still hangs over the hearts of Li Fan and John.

There are many strange things about this rainforest, and every time the two of them relax their spirits, new abnormalities will appear.

Fortunately, it is not a desert and there is no big problem in obtaining food and water. Otherwise, under this huge psychological pressure, the basic physiological needs will not be guaranteed, and this guy John may have a mental breakdown at any time.

Two hours had passed in the blink of an eye, and during this time, Li Fan and John had not spoken much, and the two of them had resumed their morning marching speed, even if they felt tired, they gritted their teeth and persevered, as if some unknown danger was chasing them behind them.

At some point, dark clouds were rolling overhead, and it seemed that a heavy rain was about to fall, and at the same time, a shoal appeared in front of the two.

"We have to cross the river before the heavy rain arrives, otherwise the water level will rise. John said, looking at the situation ahead.

Li Fan took a few steps into the water and turned around, "Now the water is only up to the knees, but when you walk to the center of the river, you may not be able to step on it waist-deep." Are you sure you want to do this? I saw that the other side would have to walk at least three or four hundred meters, maybe even further, in case it started to rain when we got to the center of the river......"

John interrupted directly: "I know, we will be trapped in the river and then drowned, and we will soon go to see God and his old man, so we better stop talking and hurry over." As he spoke, he walked forward.

Li Fan didn't say anything more and followed closely.

He also knew in his heart that if heavy rain fell, it would be impossible to wade across the river, and there were two remaining methods.

One is to take a detour and go upstream to see where the water level is lower and the river is narrower.

But God knows which section of the river is the narrowest, and maybe the shallows are the closest to each other, and the rainforest rains so much that it's not uncommon for the water level to continue to rise.

As for the second method, it is to take the time to build a simple raft to cross the river.

However, if the river is very fast after high tide, the rafts will have to be washed away like people, and it is very easy to be struck by lightning when it rains when it is a thunderstorm.

Of course, there is a third option, wait where you are, and then figure it out after the rain stops.

However, judging from the situations that Li Fan and John experienced before, they would rather take a detour than stop.

The clouds were thick and low, and the thunder was deep and close. This does not bode well, and in five minutes at most the shallows can turn to the bottom of the river.

Li Fan and John had only walked a third of the way at this time, and it was probably very dangerous to cross the river, but it was still too late to turn back, and at least the two of them could choose to take a detour after returning to the shore.
