"Forget it. There's no point in thinking about it now. So be it! Let's hurry up and see if the contents of the metal box are fragments. If yes, just grab your stuff and get out of here!! Zhao Qiqi glanced at everyone, and then moved his gaze to the surroundings: "I always feel that it is not safe here." ”

When everyone heard this, they all subconsciously looked around.

"Yes. This devouring swamp is full of dangers. Even those quagmires just now could have been transformed by some living creature. It's horrible! Du Deming also nodded.

I looked at Wang Yi with a smile and glanced at Zhang Qiang again: "Then in that case, hurry up and open the box to take a look!" ”

Wang Yi understood, he lifted the metal box and put it in front of Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang bared his teeth and smiled, and put the metal box down horizontally.

He tilted his head, took a closer look at the strangely shaped lock on the side of the metal box, and then sighed.

When Zhao Qiqi saw Zhang Qiang's appearance, he gloated a little and said, "Xiaoqiang, you won't be able to open this lock, right?" ”

When I heard this, I also turned my head to look at Zhang Qiang.

After all, the appearance of this lock is indeed very strange.

How do you describe it???

It's like an old tree root pimple.

It's a big lump, but I can't see what the structure inside is.

"Eh, maybe ......" Zhang Qiang pretended to be serious and coughed lightly, he paused for two seconds, but his expression suddenly changed, and he grimaced at Zhao Qiqi: "Hey, I lied to you." Actually, this lock looks weird though. Actually, I've seen it before. So, turn it on, that's a matter of minutes! ”

"Ahh Zhao Qiqi rolled his eyes.

I glared at Zhang Qiang angrily: "Hurry up, don't talk nonsense." ”

“OK！！” Zhang Qiang is no longer playing.

His expression returned to seriousness, and his gaze turned to the strangely shaped iron lock again.

I saw Zhang Qiang bend down, and then take off the shoe with black mud on his right foot.

Suddenly, there was a strong smell of feet, and a strange smell mixed with mud wafted around.

The taste is so sour!

"Hey, Zhang Qiang! You kid set off poison gas bombs?? What good is it for us to stink to death??? I retched and covered my mouth and looked at him fiercely.

"It's just, I'm glad I didn't eat anything, otherwise, I'd have to vomit up the overnight meal!!" Du Deming couldn't help but say.

"Hey, you think I just want to take off my shoes in public?? What does it taste like, I know best. He pursed his lips and reached into his shoes with some embarrassment.

Then, in the disgusted eyes of everyone, Zhang Qiang pulled out a wire from his shoe.

That thing looked like it was about fifty centimeters long, and I don't know how Zhang Qiang stuffed it into his shoes.

Zhang Qiang saw that we were all staring at the wire in his hand, and laughed twice.

He smirked at the five of us for a while, and then said, "Look at it!" This method of unlocking, after this village, there is no such shop!! ”

After saying that, he did not delay any longer.

Zhang Qiang carefully fed the wire into the keyhole of the strangely shaped iron lock.

He shoved the wire inside, and put his ear close to the lock, as if listening to the sound inside.

Everyone understood the doorway, so they all quieted down.

Five or six seconds later, his sneaky eyes rolled, and then he said to himself, "Found it!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a metal crisp click.

Then, the strangely shaped lock was opened.

"It's finally open, open the lid and see if it's a fragment inside!!" Du Deming urged with some excitement.

Zhang Qiang nodded, he glanced at everyone a little nervously: "I'll open the box after three sounds, you guys stay away first!" ”

Hearing his words, all five of us quickly retreated backwards and hid behind several large trees.

"Three, two, one!!"

As soon as he shouted the last number, he reached out and lifted the lid.

In the next second, Zhang Qiang ran towards us like lightning.

Everyone silently looked at the location of the box, waited for a few seconds, and saw that there was no dangerous thing coming out, so we all had the courage to walk towards the location of the metal box.

The group came to the front of the metal box and looked inside, and there were three familiar things inside—a yellowed fragment, a small map, and a bottle of unidentified reagents.

I crouched down and looked at them closely, finally making sure they were real.

"Great! Something is real! I smiled and glanced at a few of my teammates, then put the fragments and maps in my coat pocket and put the reagents in my backpack.

"Hey, I've finally found a fragment! So where are we going next??? Zhang Qiang exhaled, he looked at me and asked suspiciously.

When I heard this, I immediately searched my brain for the location of the few remaining markers.

Touching my chin and muttering for a while, I looked up at the group: "This is the closest to the abandoned temple on the northernmost hilltop of the Devouring Swamp, the farthest from the valley in the southwest, and the mysterious tribal settlement in the central area, although it is not far away, but I always have the feeling that it may be the most difficult place to obtain the fragments. So, I suggest that we go to the abandoned temple on the northernmost hill first. ”

"Yes. Let's go now?! Du Deming nodded and said.

"Wait. Don't forget, we're running out of food and water, and we're running out of ammunition. Wouldn't it be a bit risky to go there now?? Situ Cao suddenly reminded.

I was stunned: "Ah! Right! I almost forgot about it. But...... Where are we going to find food, water, and ammunition? ”

As I spoke, I subconsciously looked at Zhao Qiqi.

Zhao Qiqi seemed to expect me to look at her, she pouted at me, spread her hands, and looked indifferent.

Seeing my embarrassment, she sighed and pointed to the survival bracelet on her wrist.

That means, let me look at the map myself and figure it out.

Map??

My eyes rolled, and suddenly I understood something.

Quickly click on the map in the bracelet menu to tune to the interface of the Devouring Swamp.

Looking closely, I suddenly realized that there were some strange places on the map.

Those strange positions, as if they suddenly arched out of thin air, but there were no signs.

I don't know what these places represent.

I told the people about this discovery.

Zhao Qiqi smiled: "I finally found the right direction." One more hint for you. These strange places, if it were you, what can you think of? ”
