The sea of insects came and went quickly, and when the overwhelming red tide finally rolled back into the thick fog, what remained in front of Lu Ming and the others was a terrifying scene full of messes.
The damp dead branches and rotten leaves on the ground were stirred up, emitting a foul smell, and many tiny flat reptiles crawled in panic and re-burrowed under the fallen leaves, looking for a safe hiding place.
"Chu Qing, are you okay?"
After making sure that the sound of thousands of insect swarms had disappeared, Yan Lin came back to his senses, and immediately felt that his arm was tightly grasped by Chu Qing, Chu Qing's palm was already a little pale, his face was ugly, his eyes were closed, he was holding his chest with one hand, and he was panting violently.
Chu Qing shook his head, but finally couldn't bear it anymore, let go of Yan Lin's arm, and suddenly ran under the ancient tree, squatting down and vomiting.
When Chu Qing was almost vomiting, Lu Ming spoke: "We have to get out of here quickly, there will be a group of difficult things coming over soon after the swarm." ”
"And!"
Yan Lin and the three of them were already frightened by the insect swarm, and when they heard Lu Ming say that there were difficult things after the insect swarm, their faces all turned pale. Yan Lin looked at the depths of the thick fog in horror and said, "What else?" ”
"The swarms of snakes, all of which are highly venomous, and like the swarm, now is their meal time."
Lu Ming's face also showed a solemn look.
Ma Dai said weakly: "Let's go quickly!" In which direction? ”
Lu Ming smiled helplessly: "It's the same in any direction, and the scenery here is exactly the same." Maybe it won't be long before we'll be back here. ”
When Yan Lin and the three of them heard this, they all felt deflated. At this time, Chu Qing didn't dare to disagree with Lu Ming anymore, those reptiles, insects and snakes had always been what she hated and feared the most.
Following behind Lu Ming, several people quickly disappeared into the thick fog.
There were strange hissing sounds around from time to time, and listening to it made people feel chills in their hearts, I don't know if it was the snake group that Lu Ming said. But Lu Ming seemed to be very familiar with this place, and he was always able to leave before they surrounded him.
In the dense fog, it was impossible to discern the direction at all, and Yan Lin didn't know where his group had been. But. As far as the eye could see, all of them were identical trees to the previous one, with dense roots, like a huge net stretched out under their feet. The four of them were running around like clueless flies in this vast net. But they couldn't find a way out.
The light in the jungle of ancient trees was dim. It always gives people an unbearable oppression. Yan Lin suddenly seemed to understand why Lu Ming, who didn't like to talk very much, suddenly joked with her when she saw Lu Ming before, it turned out that she was in such a depressing environment. It's really uncomfortable.
"Lu Ming, can't we really get out?"
I don't know if it's to kill the depressed feeling in my heart, Yan Lin couldn't help but ask along the way.
Lu Ming carefully avoided the source of the hissing sound as he walked, shook his head and said: "I have been looking for three days, but I have not gained anything at all, and the biggest difficulty is the long-lasting fog in front of me, and there is no way to discern the direction." As he spoke, he looked up at the sky, and said with a solemn face: "And most of the light is blocked by towering trees, and it gets dark very early." When night fell, it was almost a tragic Colosseum, and I had to deal with it with almost all my strength, and I didn't have so much energy to stop and study, and if I wanted to find a way out, I was afraid that I could only rely on luck to see if I could bump into good luck. ”
Yan Lin sensitively captured the meaning of Lu Ming's words, couldn't help but stop, and asked solemnly: "This is a Colosseum at night?" Could it be that it will be more dangerous here at night? ”
Lu Ming nodded and looked at the depths of the thick fog, and said with a solemn expression: "The current tranquility is just the darkness before dawn. Inside, countless beasts are dormant, and once night falls, this is their hunting ground. I'm sure you've never seen that blood-drenched horror scene before. ”
Chu Qing's ankle was sprained and fell behind, and when he heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and said urgently: "Countless fierce beasts? You don't want to scare us on purpose, you don't need to use such a superficial way if you want to chase girls. As he spoke, he glanced at Yan Lin, obviously referring to Yan Lin. Yan Lin's face suddenly turned red, and she glanced at Chu Qing with a little anger and said, "Don't get involved with me, he and I just know each other." When she said this, she was a little empty in her heart, where did she and Lu Ming just know each other! Lu Ming, that bastard, took advantage of her again and again, and tried his best to bully her, and now she can get along with Lu Ming quite peacefully, but it's just because of her father's illness.
Chu Qing looked at Lu Ming with a sneer and said, "Even if as you said, there are countless fierce beasts here, but hunting each other, there will always be traces such as corpses and bones, right?" Why have we walked for so long without a fly and not seeing anything? ”
Lu Ming turned to stare at Chu Qing, he really didn't know what was wrong with this woman, why did she have such a big opinion about him? It's inexplicable! However, it seems strange that Chu Qing not only has a bad attitude towards him, but also seems to treat Ma Dai and Yan Lin much better.
Could it be that in this woman, what is embodied is the attraction of the same sex and the repulsion of the opposite sex
It seems a bit against common sense.
Or has she been deeply hurt by men, so she has an opinion about men?
Lu Ming couldn't figure it out, and seeing that Chu Qing's expression was not very friendly, he also sneered: "So what do you want to see?" Isn't that a swarm of thousands and tens of thousands just now telling the story? With them, I'm sure if you die, it's hard to find any bones. ”
Yan Lin hurriedly interjected: "Okay, let's not argue about this, the most important thing now is how to get out." Personally, I don't think there is any need for Lu Ming to lie to us. ”
Chu Qing sneered and stopped talking.
Yan Lin suddenly remembered something, her eyes suddenly lit up, she turned to look at Chu Qing and said, "By the way, didn't you say that your ancestor is from a family of organs?" You should know some formation knowledge, right? ”
Chu Qing couldn't help but smile bitterly: "That was all a hundred years ago, and now, after our family has been relocated several times, many things have long been lost." My dad is even more of a loser, in the early years of poverty when he took all the valuable things and sold them for money, if it weren't for his personal interest in the agency, I'm afraid that the ancestors' things would have been left at all. ”
When Chu Qing spoke, her tone did not mean any respect for her father, and it seemed that she was very dissatisfied with her father's behavior.
When Yan Lin heard this, she immediately showed a look of disappointment, oh, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that we are really in trouble." couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lu Ming, but Lu Ming was also helpless, his heart was actually far more anxious than Yan Lin and the others, Huang Ling'er's inexplicable disappearance has always made Lu Ming difficult to let go. He had spent three days in this strange foggy jungle, and he knew exactly how dangerous it was. Huang Ling'er was seriously injured, and I really don't know if she can survive.
Seeing that Yan Lin and the three of them were all disappointed, Chu Qing had a faint look of annoyance in her eyes, but she really had no knowledge of formations, and she had no way at all.
Lu Ming's slight expectation also declared disappointment at the same time, shook his head, and had to take the lead to continue to move forward.
After more than an hour, the four of them stopped under a towering tree that was almost identical.
The fog around was still the same, showing no sign of abating, and the whole world was still as silent as ever.
The few of them walked aimlessly in the thick fog for a long time, and now they were all exhausted, and their mood was even more depressed, and they had no interest in talking after resting, and sat on the rough roots of the trees, each frowning and thinking about their thoughts.
I don't know how long it took, Ma Dai suddenly looked up at the dense canopy that covered the sky like an umbrella, and muttered to himself with a pale face: "It's dark, it's dark."
Call!
Yan Lin and Chu Qing both raised their heads at the same time, and sure enough, the already dim light had become extremely deep. A little bit of the sky that I could see through the cracks in the thin branches was dark and dreary, as if it was about to be pressed down.
Thinking of the horror of the night that Lu Ming said, Yan Lin and the three of them all felt a strong uneasiness in their hearts.
Colosseum? What kind of scene will it be that makes Lu Ming fearful?
Yan Lin glanced at Lu Ming, and then looked at the deep fog
