A few hours later, Lin Rui and the others retreated into the swamp. The scene of this pristine swamp is striking, and when the sky is first shining, the vast expanse of water is shrouded in an eerie fog that makes it difficult to discern the direction. Under the cover of a large number of aquatic plants, the rivers and ditches are crisscrossed, and the stagnant water is overflowing, and the water is black and smells rancid. Marching through this vast swamp, if you are not careful, you will get stuck in the quagmire and be mercilessly swallowed by it.

The march through the thick muddy swamps was extremely slow, with constant bites from spiders, vipers, scorpions and tropical mosquitoes in the bushes along the way. The marshlands are deep in some places, covered with dense primeval forests due to the climate, and are infested with miasma and few people, and have always been regarded as off-limits to humans. No one would want to enter this swamp except for a few local indigenous tribes.

The sound of gunfire and explosions was long gone, except for the sound of marching through waist-deep water.

"Apparently, they didn't chase after them. Boss, aren't we going to take a break. Snake Eyes gasped and turned his head.

Lin Rui turned his head to look at the exhausted brothers and said in a low voice, "I understand that everyone is tired, and so am I. But at least let's find a place where we can barely stay, unless you're willing to rest half-naked in this damn muddy water. Crazy Horse goes ahead and tells me your advice. Even if we want to rest, we have to find a safe place. ”

"Let's go over there. Crazy Horse whispered, "There are tall trees over there, so the water isn't too deep, at least during the dry season." If we're lucky, we'll be able to take a break there. ”

Lin Rui nodded, and led the O2 team members to gradually walk to a position overgrown with trees. Sure enough, as Crazy Horse said, the water here is not that deep. Even the shallowest part of the water is just ankle-high. One by one, the team members walked up to the high ground, sat in a puddle of water with a breath, and rested for a while against the trunk of a tree.

Jiang An sat down beside Lin Rui and said in a low voice: "It seems that our plan has succeeded, if the Secret Society is pursuing along the road, they will find nothing, and if they have also rested halfway, this is very likely, then their position is even farther away, so we still have plenty of time." It was too dangerous to cross the swamp at night, they had no coordinates and could not see the markers clearly, and no one could walk through. I suggest we eat something first, sleep a little more, regain our strength, and then come out again. ”

Crazy Horse sat aside, rummaging through his bag for food, shook his head, and said, "We'll just have to rest for a while, and then we'll have to keep going." If all goes well, we'll be able to reach the rebel camp at noon today. Although Jiang An was worried that the troops would be physically exhausted, he also understood that this kind of field march should still listen to Lin Rui and Crazy Horse, since Crazy Horse said so confidently, he naturally believed him.

Crazy Horse threw the can in his hand at Lin Rui, "The taste of this can is really bad, but it can barely be swallowed." ”

"When I got to the rebel camp, I don't think I could even eat such a bad can. Lin Rui sneered. "It is said that they usually eat jungle meat. After simply filling their stomachs, they did not speak much and soon fell asleep. In the snoring of his companions, Lin Rui slept very unsteadily, he was always worried about oversleeping, and he didn't know how long it took for him to really fall asleep.

Crazy Horse seems to have had a nightmare, and he suddenly wakes up when he is startled by the nightmare scene. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Lin Rui was cutting a branch with a dagger. He saw Crazy Horse wake up and smiled at him: "What a sweet dream, it's almost time to rest." I didn't expect you to wake up on time, I was about to call you!"

"I dreamed of a female classmate from high school, and she was really beautiful at that time. It's a pity that I dreamed of her figure after becoming a grandmother. So I was awakened in an instant. Crazy Horse teased.

Lin Rui knew that he wasn't telling the truth either, he just stood up with a smile, walked a short distance earlier, and used the branches he had sharpened in his hand as a probing staff, preparing to enter the depths of the swamp.

"It's all up, we're going to find the rebel camp. If you want to sleep, you can sleep in the camp there. There were hot showers and maybe dry sleeping bags. Take this probe stick, and when I go ahead, you follow my route. But remember that every step must be explored with a branch, remember, you must be sure! You can't make a wrong step! This swamp will eat people!" Lin Rui said a few words to the brothers behind him with a serious expression, then probed with his crutches, and then stepped into the swamp.

"Keep up, and you don't want to be left behind in a place like this. Sergei turned and shouted to the ** partisans who were following them.

"Oh, oh!" the black guerrillas, who were a little wooden, woke up from a dream, and before they had time to think about it, they mustered up their courage and stepped into the swamp to follow the O2 team.

They were all stunned just now, because they were scared and shaken. They are all locals and naturally know the dangers of this swamp. As guerrillas, they were willing to make some sacrifices to save the prisoners, but they weren't sure if it was worth risking their lives. And the swamp was so dangerous that the partisans hesitated.

Sergei staggered through the waist-deep swamp and turned to say, "I know what you're thinking, but you have to understand that there is no way to turn back, and there is no hope of being left behind. So the wisest way at the moment is to follow us. And we follow Rick. We trust Rick to keep us alive, because it's always been that way, so you'd better trust him too. Don't think otherwise. ”

The ** partisans looked at each other, and it was clear that this mercenary saw their hesitation. But as he said. They had no way out, they couldn't even stop, they were ready to fly. These guerrillas no longer hesitated and continued to advance with them.

Lin Rui and Crazy Horse walked very carefully in front, and he would carefully probe for a long time with each step to make sure it was safe to pass through. It's slow, but it's not unexpected.

They had taken a short break in the middle of the swamp, and by this time their strength had regained and they were moving much faster than before, and as they were advancing, they showed the traces they had left behind, which gave them extra confidence.

"Come on, we're about to catch up with Le Anson and the others. After a short break, Team O2 marched towards the other side in one go, still cautious and steady.

In the afternoon, when they arrived at the rebel camp covered in mud and stinking, everyone suddenly had a feeling of the aftermath of the disaster. On the most dangerous sections, the depth of the swamp almost reached their chest.

"Damn! We're here!" everyone was afraid of this kind of emotion in their hearts.
