The difficult environment can temper people's will. The team members worked together and finally walked out of the barren grass mat before dawn.

Further on, there is a forest. Having trees is a sign that the land has become solid. Shi Zhongjian beckoned the team to camp in the woods. The team endured their exhaustion and set up camp at the edge of the woods.

By the time the camp was built, it was starting to lighten. Shi Zhongjian also knew that everyone was tired. There is no way to continue the march. He had no choice but to let everyone take a break here.

Shi Zhongjian arranged the guard post, and the others all looked for a place to rest.

The sun shines through the trees in the early morning, slanting on everyone's faces. The team members enjoyed the warmth of the sun while recovering their tired bodies.

Shi Zhongjian was also a little tired. Although his rank is higher than the others, the physical strength he expended also needs to be restored.

Shi Zhongjian had just rested against a tree. A member of the guard team rushed over.

The team member whispered a few words in Shi Zhongjian's ear. The sword in the stone immediately jumped up. He exclaimed, "Really? You read that right? ”

The team hurriedly told him not to be loud. Only then did Shi Zhongjian react, but he was a little excited.

The three squad leaders heard the sound of the sword in the stone and came over together.

The squad leader asked, "What happened to the captain?"

Shi Zhongjian whispered to the three of them, "Our luck is really good. Our men discovered a gang of river pirates in this wood. ”

The three squad leaders asked the team member who had reported the news. The team member nodded, "We saw smoke rising in the woods."

The three squad leaders said in unison, "This is the reason why you think you are river pirates?"

The team members scratched their heads in embarrassment. Shi Zhongjian smiled: "If you want to know the truth, you have to try it yourself." Walk. Let's take a look. ”

Shi Zhongjian and the three squad leaders followed the team members who reported the news and walked towards the depths of the woods together.

After walking a few hundred meters, a faint smoke drifted from the woods. The smoke was mixed with the smell of burning wood.

Shi Zhongjian raised his nose and sniffed. "There must be someone cooking," he judged.

At the mention of eating, the stomachs of the three squad leaders growled together. They haven't eaten yet.

Shi Zhongjian could see that the three of them were hungry. He asked the three of them to go back to bury the pot and cook first. He went to the front to explore the way himself.

The three squad leaders knew the rank of the sword in the stone. They can't compare to the sword in the stone. The three of them discussed it and decided to implement it according to Shi Zhongjian's arrangement.

Shi Zhongjian walked forward alone. The woods are not dense. You can see far through the trees.

Shi Zhongjian found the team in charge of reconnaissance. Let them also return to the station.

At this time, only Shi Zhongjian was left. He continued in the direction of the smoke.

The further the sword walked deeper into the woods, the thicker the smoke became. The forest is huge. The deeper you go, the taller the trees become.

After walking for a while, the sword in the stone pierced through the trees, and faintly saw some wooden houses in the shade of the trees.

The houses appear to have been built on top of trees. It was from these houses that the smoke of the cooking stove wafted out.

The sword in the stone is strange. Why did these people build their houses on trees? He had to figure out who these were.

As soon as Shi Zhongjian approached these treehouses, he heard a buzzing sound.

Shi Zhongjian's scalp tingled when he heard this sound. Because this sound is extremely harsh, as if there are tens of thousands of bees around the ears.

Before Shi Zhongjian could figure out the situation, something yellow appeared in front of his eyes.

There are quite a few of these things. A swarm pounced on the sword in the stone. When Shi Zhongjian saw what was in front of him, he immediately exclaimed, "Such a big bee!"

It turned out that flying in front of the stone sword was Hu Feng, who was the size of a palm. Dense wasps flocked to the sword in the stone together. Anyone who sees it will be afraid.

Shi Zhongjian turned around and ran. The wasp was in hot pursuit behind him. The sword in the stone panicked. was chased by Hu Feng to a clearing in the woods.

Without the shelter of trees, the wasps are even more unscrupulous. These wasps surrounded the sword in the stone.

If there is a unified command of the wasps. After they surrounded the sword in the stone, they did not attack him.

The sword in the stone was terrified. He didn't dare to move. For fear of angering these wasps, they will sting him into a pig's head.

Shi Zhongjian wanted to use the communication tool to greet his teammates. But he couldn't get his tools out.

The scene was deadlocked. The sword in the stone has no fear of the enemy, but in the face of these palm-sized wasps, the sword in the stone is afraid from the bottom of his bones.

Time passed slowly, and the situation of the sword in the stone got worse and worse. Large swarms of wasps surrounded him.

Just when the sword in the stone has nothing to do. He suddenly saw a red figure standing outside the wasp colony.

Shi Zhongjian desperately shouted, "Help! Please save me! ”

Hearing Shi Zhongjian's shout, a crisp female voice responded, "Who are you?" Why are you here? ”

Shi Zhongjian hurriedly shouted: "I am the Heavenly Destiny Society. I'm on a mission. ”

After a pause, the woman said, "I don't know what the fate of heaven will be." Do you say you're a good guy or a bad guy? ”

Shi Zhongjian replied, "I've never done anything bad." After a moment's hesitation, he added, "I haven't done anything good either." I don't know if it's a good guy or a bad guy. ”

The woman said: "That's not bad." In that case, I'll let you go. After the woman finished speaking, she saw the wasps surrounding Shi Zhongjian fly away. A woman in red appeared in front of Shi Zhongjian's eyes.

Shi Zhongjian stared blankly at the woman in red. The more he looked at it, the more he thought that this woman was beautiful and cute.

The woman also looked at the sword in the stone. She took a few steps closer and said crisply, "You look so strange!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Zhongjian retorted: "No, no, no." I'm normal-looking. There wasn't an extra head, or an arm. I'm just like you. ”

The woman scoffed. She nodded, "Yes." You're normal-looking. It was me who was wrong. ”

Shi Zhongjian asked, "My name is Shi Zhongjian." What is your name. Why is it here? Did you raise those wasps? ”

The woman replied, "My name is Bee Niang." Those wasps are mine. There are also a lot of bees that are mine. ”

Bee Lady pointed to the houses built on trees, "We live there." Only then did Shi Zhongjian understand that those treehouses were beehives.

Shi Zhongjian thanked the bee girl. Bee Niang waved her hand and said, "Don't thank me. This is my home. You'd better go. ”

Shi Zhongjian was just about to turn around and leave, when Bee Niang suddenly said, "How did you get here?"

Shi Zhongjian replied, "My team and I came by boat from the canal. I looked to see if there were any river pirates here. ”

Bee Niang sighed. The canal is not far from this wood. Bee Niang also knows about the existence of canals. She said to Shi Zhongjian, "You're looking for a river thief!" If you go further, you can see it. ”
