For several days, it was impossible for the three people trapped in the unknown woods to know what was happening on the mainland. Since walking into the woods three days ago, the three of them have not found their normal path.

"Second brother, are you sure we can find a way out?"

Yang Ruiyun looked at the map of the continent in his hand and said helplessly: "We should be in the territory of Chu now, but it is difficult to say where it is." ”

"I heard my father say that there is a large rainforest in the south of the Chu State, which is the forbidden land of the Chu State. There was a barbarian race living in the rainforest, and even the Chu State did not dare to provoke them casually. We're not going to be there. Deng Zhanxuan used the giant axe as a crutch, limped and looked at the surrounding trees and said.

When Yang Ruiyun heard this, his brows furrowed, and he said, "I had some guesses about this forest before, but I'm not sure, but now it seems that we are indeed trapped in the Nanban Rainforest." ”

"Are those barbarians powerful?" asked Li Qiutong with an excited face.

Yang Ruiyun sighed and said, "Big brother, can you not be so excited, we are not here to fight." However, it is said that those barbarians have fought against the Overlord Iron Knights, and their strength is definitely not weak, coupled with the local advantage, we had better pray not to encounter them. ”

Li Qiutong could only touch his head awkwardly, "Okay, okay, let's find our way out quickly." ”

The three of them continued to walk forward, Yang Ruiyun, who had a strong sense of direction, opened the way in front, Deng Zhanxuan, who was the most injured, was protected in the middle, and Li Qiutong was in the last behind.

"Woo", suddenly the sound of a beast roaring came from behind the three of them. The nerves of the three of them tensed up instantly. Immediately afterward, a striped tiger cautiously stepped out of the grass and confronted the trio.

"Second brother, you protect the third brother, and I will deal with him. Li Qiutong whispered to the two.

"Big brother, be careful. ”

Li Qiutong held a yin-yang dragon pattern stick, protected horizontally on his chest, and looked at the tiger.

The tiger also moved around the three of them, as if looking for an opportunity, but Li Qiutong didn't want to entangle, so he immediately seized the opportunity, instantly gathered the green martial arts, and smashed it on the top of the tiger's head. The speed of this stick is not something that a beast can react to, and the tiger is about to be smashed.

Suddenly, a flying arrow shot at a person and a tiger, Li Qiutong felt a cold air, and felt bad, so he immediately put away his stick to block the flying arrow, and almost at the same time, a sturdy figure fell from the tree and stood next to the tiger.

While this person was wary of Li Qiutong, he touched the tiger's head, and after saying a strange word, the tiger turned around and jumped into the woods and disappeared.

"Who are you, and why did you attack me? Li Qiutong looked at the young man in front of him and asked.

The young man put down the bow and arrow in his hand and said, "I am from the Nanban tribe, and I have no hostility towards you, but the child just now is my friend, and I can't let you kill him." Looking at the three people in front of him who were still not relaxed, the young man continued: "You are from outside the forest, my name is Meng Yanyu, I hope you can put down the weapons in your hands, and we will sit down and have a good talk." I don't mean anything malicious. ”

After Li Qiutong signaled to the two, the three of them also put down their weapons at the same time.

Meng Yanyu also breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled: "Hello, outsiders, if you don't mind, you can come to my house to rest, I see that you are quite tired, and I can make up for my friend's fright to you." ”

"Thank you, we really needed a place to rest. Li Qiutong stretched out his hand to show his friendliness. Li Qiutong's intuition told him that this person should not be a bad person, and he and his party had been trapped here for a long time, and he couldn't find a way out, but he was really done playing. In addition, it is difficult to meet someone, and maybe you can consult with him.

After seeing the eldest brother's decision, Yang Ruiyun and Deng Zhanxuan had no opinions. So the four of them led by him. Set off towards Meng Yanyu's home.

There are countless strange plants in the Nanban Forest, including towering trees and beautiful flowers, and even the ground is full of green bushes, and there are intricate vines hanging in the process, so it is good for outsiders to find their way. Under the guidance of Meng Yanyu, a local, they walked through the paths hidden under the grass in amazement, and after a long time, they finally came to an extremely hidden place. A small bamboo building sits in the middle of this rainforest.

Li Qiutong looked at the surrounding scenery and said in amazement: "This is too hidden, we really can't find it ourselves." ”

"Haha, in this rainforest, only our people can find their way, and outsiders will either starve to death or be eaten by wild beasts. Meng Yanyu replied proudly.

When they entered the bamboo building, the three of them instantly felt a cool wind blowing in their faces, which was completely different from the humid and hot weather outside the house.

"It's so comfortable. Deng Zhanxuan and Li Qiutong sat directly on the ground, feeling this rare coolness. Although Yang Ruiyun was not so obvious, he also relaxed. Three days of rainforest adventures had left all three of them exhausted.

"This bamboo building is comfortable, this is a unique building that we have. Rest here for a while, and I will go and bring you food and drink. After Meng Yanyu briefly introduced the house, he left the bamboo building.

After Yang Ruiyun saw him leave, he said to Li Qiutong: "Big brother, do you think this person can be trusted?"

Li Qiutong looked at the direction Meng Yanyu left, thought for a while, and said, "There should be no problem, I don't think he is much smarter than the third brother." ”

Yang Ruiyun was speechless for a moment, sighed helplessly, and said, "This person gives me the feeling that he should be a bright and upright person, and he should be kind to us, but we should not take it lightly." ”

"Of course, but we'll have to thank him afterwards, because without him we'd probably have died in the woods. ”

The three of them sat down at a low wooden table.

After a while, Meng Yanyu walked in with a bamboo tube in his left hand and a large basin in his right hand.

"Come, try my own cold drink, and our peculiar cured meat. Meng Yanyu said, put the basin on the table, took out four wooden cups, and poured them full of juice.

"Brother Meng, I really thank you for saving us, I respect you for this cup. Yang Ruiyun raised the cup first, and said politely.

But the other two were not so polite, and directly grabbed the meat in the basin with their hands and began to eat.

"This meat is so delicious, hey, big brother, don't rob me. ”

Yang Ruiyun looked at the two of them and really didn't know what to say, so he could only say helplessly: "Brother Meng, forgive me, we haven't eaten much for a few days." ”

Meng Yanyu is also a bold person, he didn't care, but laughed and said: "Brother Yang wants to respect me, don't use juice, wait for me to bring wine, let's drink it slowly, and Brother Yang will be gone if he doesn't eat it." ”

Yang Ruiyun saw that the other party didn't care, and also smiled.

It's a pity that when he looked at the basin, it was already empty, and as for Li Qiutong and Deng Zhanxuan, they were obviously licking their fingers a little unsatisfied.

"Brother Meng, your meat is really good, this taste is very special. Li Qiutong took a sip of juice and praised. Deng Zhanxuan nodded in agreement. And Yang Ruiyun could only drink the juice helplessly.

"That's not it, I'll get you some more, and then some wine. Meng Yanyu was also very happy when he heard this, and immediately went to get food again.

Meng Yanyu has been living alone at the border of the forest since he left the tribe, guarding the forest. Except for his childhood sweetheart who occasionally comes to visit him,The rest of the time has been staying here alone.,Lonely for a long time, he naturally has a great yearning for talking and chatting with people.。 So for the appearance of the three brothers, Meng Yanyu was very happy from the bottom of his heart. Tonight is also destined to be a sleepless night.

"It turns out that you are from the Song Kingdom, I just heard my mother and teacher talk about things outside, but I have never left this forest. Can you tell me what it's like outside?" Meng Yanyu said curiously.

As soon as the three of them heard this, they also began to introduce the outside world to Meng Yanyu.

The four of them chatted late at night while drinking, among which Li Qiutong was the eldest brother, but he fell down early as before, and Deng Zhanxuan, although he was tall and strong, he was also dizzy and crawled on the ground at this time, not knowing what he was talking about. As for the sober two, they chatted hotly.

"I didn't expect you to be the brother of the righteous knot Jin Lan, if I were here, I would definitely join you, haha. It's time to do it. ”

Yang Ruiyun also drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, and said with a smile: "Today's kindness, my three brothers will remember it in their hearts, even if we don't get married, we will always treat Brother Meng as a brother." ”

Meng Yanyu shook his hand, "What kind of kindness, let's not talk about that." My father said that those who meet must be destined. Don't call Brother Meng, just call me Ah Yan, we all call me that. ”

"Okay, Ah Yan, you can also call me Ruiyun. ”

"Okay, let's have another drink, Ruiyun. The two clinked glasses and drank them all.

The next day, when Li Qiutong opened his eyes, the sun was extremely dazzling. Covering his slightly open eyes, Li Qiutong walked to the door, and the sun in the sky had already begun to set.

"I'm not going to sleep until the afternoon again. Although I didn't want to believe it, the scene outside confirmed my suspicions. Helplessly, Li Qiutong knocked on his vague head, recalling the events of last night, but it was still the same as before, and he had no impression since he picked up the wine glass.

"It seems that you really can't drink casually in the future, it's too dangerous. After silently guarding himself in his heart, Li Qiutong walked towards the courtyard, where there was the sound of fighting, and the other three should be there.
