12. Chapter XII

Rainy days, dark nights, islands, men's arms, women on arms.

If you ignore the discomfort all over the body, what a romantic scene it would be!

The leaves on Wei Jin's back grinned and thought.

The muddy steep slope is very difficult to climb, although his two hands have grasped the vines along the way, so as not to let the two of them fall, but there will always be an inevitable slip on the foot, and she will be thrown by inertia on the guide's back, so she can only hang tightly on his back, her hands and arms are tense, and her teeth are clenched.

This is hundreds of times more uncomfortable than climbing by herself, and getting out alive is like riding a broken tractor, shaking, shaking, almost shaking out her internal organs.

Just when she felt that she couldn't hold on and fell from the tractor, the tractor finally managed to climb the slope, and the bumps were no more.

Ye Zimeng rested his head on his right shoulder and breathed a sigh of relief. The breath was exhaled under his ear, and she felt a stiffness in her body beneath her, followed by a sentence of- "Come down." โ€

His tone was a little condensed, like a little frost, unlike most calm and composed.

So, this place is his sensitive point?

She blinked, just as the other was about to crouch. The moment he wanted to put her down, he suddenly turned his head sideways with ill intentions, and deliberately dragged out his tone: "If I say that my foot has just twisted and I can't walk, and I need you to carry it all the way, do you believe it or not?" โ€

Well, my body froze again, it seems to be really sensitive.

Ye Zimeng bent the corners of her eyes, and without waiting for the other party to answer, she let go of her hand and jumped down neatly from him: "I'm joking, thank you Brother Wei just now." โ€

After thanking him, she deliberately ignored his gloomy face, turned to the other four people who were waiting in place, and stretched out her right hand to point to the pitch-black front: "everyone, let'sgo~!" โ€

After a while, the six of them followed the group and continued to move towards the unknown.

The road is getting farther and farther, the legs are getting more and more sore, and the person is getting more and more tired.

Feeling the passage of all the strength, Ye Zimeng also lost his tune. The mind of the playwright, maintaining the rhythm of breathing, silently followed behind the predecessors.

The sky gradually brightened, the surroundings became clearer, and the pace of the team was much faster.

However, the rain is still falling.

Cold and tired, her physical strength has gradually approached the line of overdraft, and Ye Zimeng, who is stubbornly walking in her bones, does not dare to stop at all, because she feels that once she stops, she does not want to go.

It's a pity that if I was not careful, the vines under my feet that were entwined into woolen balls tripped over, and the tense nerves on my legs suddenly relaxed, and the whole person almost fell to the ground softly.

Of course, it was just almost, because Wei Jin in the back supported her at the first time.

With his strength, Ye Zimeng carefully โ–กโ–ก his feet from the messy vines like wires, even if he was extremely tired, he actually said with great interest: "I didn't mean it this time." โ€

Wei Jin's face was expressionless and he didn't answer.

Yes, he's been like that ever since she deliberately said that to his sensitive point.

His face was expressionless and silent.

Of course, he couldn't be sulking alone, he just didn't want to pay attention to her at all.

Ye Zimeng licked her chapped lips, waved away his hand holding her, and stood up straight.

As soon as her nerves were relaxed, the weakness of her legs came out, and when she stepped on the ground, she felt like she was completely floating.

Stepping hard to try to shake off the cottony sensation, she glanced up and asked, "What time is it?" โ€

Wei Jin glanced at his watch: "Seven forty-five." โ€

"It's not like seven o'clock." She sighed.

Although the day was bright, the huge sky was completely covered with dark clouds, and it was overcast. It doesn't look much different from the dawn of the day, which is not very optimistic.

They still thought that the rain would be clear at dawn, but now it seems that it is impossible.

"When do you think the rain will stop?" Ye Zimeng bent down and thumped his legs.

The other party shook his head: "No one can know." โ€

She tugged at the corners of her mouth indifferently and continued with vague steps.

After climbing some distance, she wiped the rain and whispered, "Why haven't you arrived yet......?"

Wei Jin glanced at the back of her head: "It's almost there." โ€

Unexpectedly, her casual complaint could be answered, and she turned her head back in surprise.

Thinking that she didn't believe what he said, he pointed to a place above him and said succinctly, "The destination should be there." โ€

Ye Zimeng looked in the direction, and suddenly his heart fell into the ice cellar, and he said weakly: "It looks very close, but it is estimated that it will take more than an hour to climb!" โ€

So yours is almost there, is it just over an hour?

This kind of long journey, the most annoying thing is that some people keep saying that it's almost coming, it's almost coming, but it's not there, so it's better not to say it! It tastes like hope but is lost, and it's cruel!

"You can." Ignoring the complaints in her words, he said lightly.

Ye Zimeng pulled the corners of her mouth proudly, and nodded as she panted: "Of course I can." โ€

A few tough guys who were too tired to do it in front of them, bending over and panting: "......"

I didn't expect this little girl to be thin and small, and she climbed an island to be on par with them!

It's really humiliating!

So they glanced at each other, decisively ended their short rest, and climbed up with a sigh.

**

Starting at more than two o'clock in the morning and climbing until nine o'clock the next day, a full seven hours, they finally reached their destination.

This is by far the safest place on the island, not only is the terrain the highest, but even the surrounding vegetation is unusually characteristic - not tall but stout, closely arranged with each other and orderly, which can effectively block the strong winds that sweep from the sea, and is not easy to be blown down by the wind.

Surrounded by these vegetation is a clearing overgrown with weeds and scattered with long, wide stones.

However, this excellent shelter has long been occupied.

The clearing is crawling with all kinds of animals, ants, praying mantises, beetles, etc., which occupy their own positions in dense clusters. In the distance, there seemed to be some species hidden in the thickets, and it was faintly impossible to see.

And those extraordinarily thick branches are coiled with snakes of various colors, clumps, looking colorful, like spirit trees full of colorful wild fruits.

Everyone stood on the periphery, silently watching this qiฤ“, not knowing how to grab territory with these aborigines.

Ye Zimeng, who accurately set his eyes on the snakes at the first glance, lifted his heart, pursed his lips, stepped back, stood half a step behind Wei Jin, and quietly pulled the corner of his clothes.

He glanced at her with a perceptive look.

She immediately made a pitiful expression.

So he didn't say anything, didn't shake her off, and just withdrew his gaze expressionlessly.

Qi Wei, the deputy leader of the team in front, was a little big, his eyes swept and swept, and after sweeping to Wei Jin, who had just arrived in the rear, his eyes lit up, and he squeezed past everyone and walked over, "Brother Wei, what should we do now?" Just just stand and wait for the rain to stop? โ€

He shook his head, motioned Ye Zimeng with his eyes to remove his hand, took down the bag, took out the anti-snake and insect powder inside, held it in his hand and said, "I'll go and drive away the ants on the stone, you tell everyone to wait for a while." โ€

Qi Wei nodded with a strange face, "Although there is no danger, but ......", he looked at the dense insects on the ground in front of him, "Brother Wei, don't you think it's a bit embarrassing to step on it like this?" โ€

Ye Zimeng, who was listening attentively, nodded approvingly, anyway, she felt a little disgusting.

But thinking about his attitude towards the animals along the way, she thought he might have enjoyed it.

Sure enough, she immediately heard the other party's reply - "I don't think so." โ€

"Okay then, Brother Wei, be careful." Qi Wei grabbed his hair through the safety suit and moved out of the way.

He looked at Wei Jin's face and stepped in, those insects realized the threat and fled, and many fell on Wei Jin's body, and in just a while, Wei Jin's whole body was covered with all kinds of insects, which was quite spectacular.

Qi Wei's eyes widened in shock, and he subconsciously took a few steps back, and said in shock: "Ye Zi, this Brother Wei is really good!" โ€

Hearing no response, he turned his head and found that Ye Zimeng, who was supposed to be behind him, was no longer there.

So he even opened his mouth wide this time, and after looking around the crowd, he found Ye Zimeng hugging He Huan.

"Ahh He Huan buried his head in Ye Zimeng's right shoulder and yelled.

Ye Zimeng patted her shoulder comfortingly, stared at the snakes not far away, and silently hugged He Huan.

Snakes or something, it's really scary!

After a while, Wei Jin had already driven the ants on the stone to another place, sprinkled a circle of medicinal powder around it, and cleared another passage.

One by one, the crowd ran through the passage and jumped onto the stones.

When it was He Huan's turn, she couldn't get off her feet, so Li Shengming hugged her over.

"You...... Do you want me to help? Just when Ye Zimeng was about to catch up with Li Shengming and the two in front, Jiang Hairui suddenly said loudly.

She blinked in confusion. Hmm, how can I help? Help her chase the snake away?

Jiang Hairui coughed.

She followed his line of sight, and in front of her was He Huan, who was nesting in Li Shengming's arms.

So he thought she was afraid of insects under her feet? So you want to visit the two people in front of you and hug her over?

Ye Zimeng quietly rolled her eyes, slowly paced forward, waved her hand and said, "No." โ€

"You're not afraid?" He touched the jade block and followed.

"What is there to be afraid of." She shrugged.

He snorted: "Then you ran over in a panic just now and hugged He Huan, your face was still white with fright." โ€

She stopped, pointed to the big fat snakes opposite, and said sincerely, "I'm afraid of them, and if you can help me get rid of them, I will be very grateful to you." โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

As soon as she had said that, she lifted her leg and ran, jumped briskly on the stone, flashed to the farthest point from the snakes, and sat down with her ass.
