Chapter 534: Hidden Crisis

Early the next morning, after breakfast, we gathered in the thatched hut to discuss the order in which to find the fragments.

I looked at the map displayed by the bracelet for a while, and pointed to two of the dots: "Since the five dots are connected in the shape of an arrow, we have now found both fragments on the tail." Next, you must go to the points at the ends of the shoulders that are closer to you. But...... Which way to go first? ”

"Yes, the points on the left and right are actually about the same distance from where we are." Du Deming also said.

"Hey, since it's all the same, let's just pick a random place and pull it down." When Zhang Qiang heard this, he immediately replied heartlessly.

I glanced at him: "Use your brain before you act, and be sure to think of the best route before you set off." ”

At this time, Zhao Qiqi turned his gaze to Sammy's direction: "Sammy, you are familiar with this area. In your opinion, which way do you think we should go first? ”

Sammy heard this and fell into deep thought.

"If I'm not mistaken, the point to the left of the arrow should be near the big rock in the center of the scissors ditch. The rivers there are relatively narrow, with a width of less than four meters at the narrowest point. It doesn't seem to be dangerous, but there are many caves at the bottom of the river that have been created for unknown reasons, these caves are large and small, the smallest entrance is less than half a square meter, and the depth is unknown. If you accidentally fall into it, you may be sucked into the cave at the bottom of the river by the suction force of the current. It can be suffocated to death, and if it is serious, the internal organs of the whole person will be hollowed out by the powerful suction. ”

After listening to this, my face suddenly became a little ugly, so I asked again: "That...... What about the dot on the right? ”

Sammy glanced at me with an obscure expression.

"What's wrong? Is there any danger there? Du Deming asked.

Sammy sighed: "That's right! I won't hide it from you. In fact, the point on the right is the only stronghold of the mercenaries of the old Imperial Army in the Forest of No Return. For unknown reasons, the Imperial mercenaries did not set up many strongholds in the Forest of No Return like our caravans or research institutes, but instead only set up one stronghold here. But the question is...... They're quite strong and heavily armed, and I'm afraid if you go there, even if you guys are good, they're outnumbered......"

Hearing Sammy's concern, I thought, "In that case, let's go to the spot on the left to find the fragments first!" ”

Naturally, everyone understands what I mean.

After all, while both places are dangerous, scissor ditches are relatively much easier.

The discussion was settled, and after everyone had packed up their belongings, they quickly moved forward to the left front.

Actually, the thatched hut we just stayed in is the end of one of the branches of the river.

So, next, we just need to follow the river bank all the way forward.

With the sound of the river and the fresh air all around, this is a good place to relax if you are not in a dangerous game world.

Looking at such a beautiful scenery, everyone felt a lot more relaxed.

After walking for about thirty minutes, Sammy suddenly stopped.

She raised her hand and pointed to a boulder in the middle of the river not far away, and said, "Here we are, there is the section of the Scissors Gully ahead." ”

On the way, Sammy told us about the origin of the name Scissors Ditch.

It seems that the mountain here is not very stable, and stones often fall.

Many years ago, a huge rock fell into the river, splitting the river in two.

From the outside, it looks like a pair of scissors.

Therefore, caravans, scientific research institutes and others called this place scissors ditch.

I was about to walk that way, but suddenly I caught a glimpse of a goat not far away.

It lowered its head and ate the grass one bite at a time.

"Hey, there's a sheep over there!" I pointed to the other end in some surprise.

When they heard this, they all looked to that end.

"Hey, really! I don't know if I can catch it, kill it, and eat a roasted whole sheep! When Zhang Qiang saw it, he immediately drooled.

Zhao Qiqi finally couldn't help it, and gave him a kidney blow with a fist: "You kid thinks about eating every day, most of the things here are infected by the virus, how can you be sure, that sheep must not have it?" In case ......"

Before she could finish speaking, the goat seemed to have discovered our presence.

Before everyone could realize what was going on, it suddenly kicked its front hooves a few times, then lowered its head to reveal its two sharp horns, and lunged at our position like crazy.

No.

To be precise, it should be Chao, Zhang Qiang, who was wearing a red coat, pounced.

Zhang Qiang was still plucking his ears, and he didn't react at all to what was going on.

By the time he could react, the goat was less than a meter away from him.

"Ahh Mine too! ”

I only heard Zhang Qiang exclaim, and then his body quickly flashed to the side, narrowly avoiding the goat's attack.

However, because he was too panicked, he tripped his left foot and his right foot, and he fell to the ground in a fart.

Now, he can't hide anymore!

The goat's eyes glowed red when it saw that it couldn't hit it, and it kicked its hooves, ready to do it again.

It all happened in just two or three seconds.

It wasn't until Zhang Qiang sat on the ground that I finally reacted.

Say it's too late, then it's too fast.

At the moment when the goat had already pounced on Zhang Qiang again, I, Wang Yi, and Du Deming took out their guns at the same time.

Bang bang bang ~~

After three gunshots, the goat pounced and fell in front of Zhang Qiang.

Seeing this, we breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, I'm finally saved." Zhang Qiang patted his chest with palpitations and kicked the goat aside.

"It's not that you kid is cheap, you said you want to eat roasted whole sheep, now it's okay, you didn't eat roasted whole sheep, and you fell a dog and ate." Zhao Qiqi glared at him and said.

Zhang Qiang glanced at Zhao Qiqi, biting his lip and not daring to say anything.

When the others heard this, they all burst out laughing.

Looking at Zhang Qiang's embarrassed appearance, I shook my head and pulled him up from the ground.

"But why are even animals infected with the virus? That's weird, isn't it? Situ Cao looked down at the carcass of the goat on the ground and said.

"Yes! I didn't figure it out either. And ......," I said, crouching down again and examining the goat's carcass, "you see, it has that strange pattern on it. What does this mean? ”

Zhao Qiqi glanced at me, and then looked up at the sky: "Perhaps, all this is a conspiracy. ”

"Huh? What do you mean? "When I heard this, I was immediately interested.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Zhao Qiqi.

Zhao Qiqi just smiled incomprehensibly, but did not answer our question.

Seeing that she didn't want to say, I didn't ask.

"Alright, let's think about where the third fragment is hidden!" I retracted my thoughts and reminded.
