Chapter 359: Horror in the River (1)

Walking into the depths of the rainforest, Lin Dong felt as if they had entered another world, a world of rain.

Even on a sunny day, it's not easy to get a glimpse of the sun in the jungle. And the humidity in the air causes water droplets to condense on the leaves of all plants, which then slowly drip from above.

It's like a drizzle in the sky.

The weather in the rainforest is also subject to change, and rain can fall on their heads at any time and at any time.

The clothes worn by Lin Dong and Lin Xia were specially prepared, waterproof and moisture-proof. And the guide, Balu, was dressed in ordinary local clothes and held a large mountain knife in his hand.

Every time they stepped on it, Lin Dong's feet would sink into the surface of their feet.

Dead leaves accumulate on the ground, which quickly decay in this environment and become nutrients for other plants.

But in this kind of dead leaves, it is most likely to encounter those poisonous insects and poisonous snakes and the like.

Maybe you'll step on them if you're not careful, and the poison will let you know what it costs to disturb them!

"Watch out for your feet, and the branches sticking out of the trees, maybe there's something small waiting for you there." The guide Balu dutifully opened the way in front of him, and said to the people behind him.

Lin Dong and the others followed closely behind, but the eyes of the five people had already seen all the corners around them, and they would not let any danger happen to them.

After listening to Balu's words, only Lin Xia had a noticeable difference, because this kind of place was indeed a bit terrifying for her.

Although she is a spy, she often lives in those big cities, and the people she comes into contact with are also elite people.

This is the first time I've tried something like going deep into the jungle.

And with her family environment, if it weren't for her interest, she wouldn't have been able to do such a career.

Even then, her tasks tend to be very easy and simple.

"Be careful!"

Lin Dong, who was walking, suddenly shouted, and then reached out to pull Lin Xia, who was not reacting, to the side.

A green figure flew out from a branch not far from them, and the target was where Lin Xia was just now.

And after Lin Dong pulled Lin Xia away, he also drew his jungle knife in his right hand, and slashed towards the green figure with a wave of his hand.

"Whew!"

With a slight sound, the jungle knife in Lin Dong's hand split the green shadow in two, but even so, the green shadow that landed on the ground was still struggling.

Everyone looked over and saw a small green snake that had been split in two twitching on the ground.

"It's an African tree snake." Balu walked over and looked at the half of the small snake on the ground and said.

"It's not big, but it's very poisonous, and each attack releases enough venom to kill an adult.

And this little guy is a very ferocious snake, and he often attacks humans. Every year, many locals die at the hands of such little guys. ”

Lin Xia thanked Lin Dong for saving her in a little shock, but she really didn't react at all at the moment just now.

"Everyone be careful, we can be attacked by animals in the jungle at any time, so we must protect ourselves." Lin Dong reminded him.

Lin Dong's voice fell, and Balu said again: "He is right, there is danger around us at any time now, so we must be careful."

There's more to this jungle than just these little tree snakes! ”

In this kind of jungle, there are its own laws.

That is "natural selection, survival of the fittest." ”

In the midst of this vast tropical rainforest, humanity's position at the top of the food chain is already teetering.

And the people who live in this environment have also regained their original nature of the jungle.

On the next journey, Lin Dong and the others walked more carefully.

Although it has endured some attacks here, they have all been defused one by one with the help of Dragon Soul and others.

The most dangerous thing is that Lin Xia guessed a poisonous snake hidden in the dead leaves.

This is a Gabonese viper. Like the tree snake before it, it is also one of the most dangerous snakes in Africa. It is the heaviest venomous snake in Africa, with a body length of up to two meters and a weight of 8 kilograms.

The Gabon viper has a stout body with a broad head and a two-horned protrusion on the muzzle. Its fangs are also the longest of the venomous snakes, with fangs up to 5 cm long. Gabonese vipers live on the forest floor, and they spend a lot of time waiting for some prey to pass by where they are resting.

This kind of snake is a natural hidden master, when it is motionless and hidden among the dead leaves, even Lin Dong's eyesight can hardly recognize them.

But as they walked, they found that the road in front of them was slowly beginning to accumulate water, and as they advanced, the water became deeper and deeper.

Balu stopped, looked at the situation in front of him, and said, "It seems that we have encountered a jungle river, and we can only sail for the rest of the journey." ”

Looking at the specific situation, a river did appear not far from them. It may be the reason why it has just rained in this generation, and the water level in the forest has risen, and the places that used to be land have now been filled with stagnant water.

"The draft here is shallow, and there can be dangers in the water. For example, Nile crocodiles, forest pythons, pythons, etc., can exist in this kind of underwater.

So the next trip will be more dangerous, I hope you are mentally prepared. ”

Lin Dong nodded, then found a place to put down his backpack and took out the kayak inside.

The shallow draft of this kayak is perfect for this densely wooded environment. The only downside is that its weight capacity is so poor, and they need at least three kayaks for a group plus the salute.

After some preparation, Lin Dong and the others all got on the boat, and then started their journey again.

Because the boats were manual, their speed could not be raised at all. And if they really encounter any pythons, crocodiles or something, the kayaks under their seats really don't have much resistance.

As long as there is a python or crocodile in the water, then as long as they move their tails gently, Lin Dong and his party will have the possibility of capsizing.

As they slowly moved forward, they finally saw a river channel.

To be honest, the river is really narrow, less than five or six meters wide, and you can reach the branches of those trees at the water's edge from the boat.

It was raining again in the sky.

It was really raining this time, and it wasn't a drop of water from the leaves.

"Be careful, although most of the animals will hide in this weather, there will still be some animals who like to come out and walk. For example, the Nile crocodile, the largest crocodile in Africa, is also the most ferocious predator. Read the latest chapters, stay tuned
