Chapter 22: Deep in the Forest
"Well, this is all my brother's old equipment, you can deal with it."
Li You stopped what he was doing and looked back at Sister Hua who came in, staring at himself with a bunch of messy items in her hand. But his eyes stayed on Sister Hua's body.
Dressed in a dark green tight-fitting camouflage uniform, she wore it neatly on her body; A bumpy figure full of vitality. The slightly yellowed dreadlocks, coiled high above his head, reminded Li You that he might face a battle next.
"I still don't use this weapon, I'm bleeding." Li You took Shuangzi's equipment and lowered his head embarrassedly.
Sister Hua, who sighed, took out a pair of sunglasses from her arms and put them on top of the miscellaneous items and said, "I have been ready for a long time, if you take this polarizer, you will not be able to see the color of the blood." ”
"Does it work?"
"Hurry up, stop talking nonsense!" After yelling, Sister Hua gave him a blank look, then turned around and walked out.
In the entire team, except for the two black big brothers who have no impression, Li You has basically met. Sister Hua didn't waste time to introduce him one by one, and after a few simple explanations, she took the lead and walked towards the south gate.
Before leaving, Li You took out the "key" again to inspect, and saw that the content on it had not changed, and he was also steady. Even if he can continue to cross now, he must solve his heart knot.
A group of six people went around to the northern summit of the camp while talking. This is the only way to get to the Borderlands.
Sister Hua looked back at the camp, and then left all the nostalgia in her heart, she knew that only the road in front of her was her right choice.
"Sister Hua, let's go ahead, I'm familiar with the way." The elephant looked at Sister Hua's hesitant expression and volunteered.
"Well, be careful, then."
With the breeze from the top of the mountain, everyone plunged into a dense woodland, and at the same time, several rare big birds flew out in the mountains.
After burrowing into the forest, the ground began to slope upward, and the dead leaves and broken branches under his feet were creaked by Li You's stepping, causing Sister Hua to look back at him several times.
"Can you take it lightly?"
"I try, I try." Li You, who was counted out, seemed to be dancing ballet, probing the road on his toes. The occasional wind and grass in his ears can make his heart beat.
Unlike going to the camp downstream, the trees here are much thicker and leafy, so they don't get the slightest sunlight in. Deep in the dark forest, I don't know where it leads.
Turning his head, Li You shifted his gaze to the elephant leading the way. I learned from Sister Hua that this man with a wide body and a fat body is two or three years older than herself, but his face is extremely old, which may be due to the fact that he has been running around in the wild for many years.
Halfway through, the sun also moved to the middle of the sky, and Sister Hua said to the elephant: "Why don't we take a rest, I see that Jiaojiao and Li You are a little out of breath." ”
Li You, who heard his name, hurriedly said, "It's okay, go on, I'm fine." Having said that, the trembling legs had already betrayed themselves.
"Don't be reckless, just take a rest here to replenish your strength, and if you go further, I'm afraid you will reach the most dangerous valley." After Sister Hua finished speaking, she put her backpack on the ground and sat on it.
After a moment of rest, Li You asked Sister Hua: "If you can't find your brother, or your brother is ......, have you thought about the future?" ”
After being silent for a while, Sister Hua shook her head and said, "I think my brother must be alive, he said that he will build me a big house and find me a wishful husband." ”
Li You didn't want to hit her, but he always felt that his feeling of "quantum entanglement" was getting worse and worse recently. This is evidenced by the fact that he accidentally cut his finger a little bit when he was peeling the fruit last night, and almost caused him to faint.
"You've seen it...... What's that? ”
Sister Hua didn't understand, and frowned: "Monster? ”
"Hmm."
"No, my brother has seen it, and he always scares me with this incident." As soon as the words fell, a roar came from the forest in front of him.
Everyone hurriedly threw down the food in their hands, picked up their guns and aimed them at the dark place. Before Li You set off, he carefully looked at the weapon in his hand, which was not a common firearm. According to the elephant's introduction, this is an ion launcher, and the ammunition is a hydrogen ion beam, which is amazingly lethal and almost unrecoilable.
After waiting for a long time, there was no movement, Sister Hua put down the gun and looked back at the trembling Li You, and opened the ion gun on her back with her hand and said, "Why are you facing me, this thing is so dangerous, be careful not to go off!" ”
"I'm a little nervous", Li You put down the gun and said with some worry: "Listening to the roar, I guess I can't be small." ”
"Keep walking, we need to get to the border before dark!" After the elephant finished speaking, he walked forward with his gun in hand.
I don't know if it's Li You's illusion, when passing through the dense forest, you can clearly see the dividing line on the ground, the outside is quite clear, but the inside is pitch black.
Moreover, the ground has also risen and turned into a fall, and if you are not careful, you may slip, Li You carefully stepped on the toes twice with her toes every step she took, and only dared to walk down after making sure that the ground was strong.
"Turn on the night vision goggles, pay attention to the situation around you, and be vigilant. Li You, pay attention to the gun, don't go off. After Sister Hua finished speaking, she didn't say anything more.
In Li You's goggles, against the green background, there are only the changing black figures of two people. Looking back again, the taciturn Jiaojiao along the way also looked around with the same words.
"Stop!" The elephant gave an order, then curled up, turned around and whispered to Sister Hua: "Tell them to find cover, there seems to be something in front!" ”
Li You, who got the information, squatted down as soon as possible, and made a rollover to hide behind the big tree, but in the process of rolling again, he accidentally bumped into a stone hidden in the grass.
"it." endured the pain and scolded secretly, Li Youxin said that he must not be so handsome in the future, but then again, why are there so many stones here?
Squatting behind the pine tree, he didn't even dare to breathe, hoping that the "thing" in the elephant's mouth was just a naughty hare.
"It's okay, it's just a rabbit!"
Hearing what the elephant said, Li You felt as if his mouth had opened his mouth, and he got up and walked towards him with a pant. The helmet on the head accidentally scraped a branch, turning the night vision goggles into thermal imaging.
He was about to fiddle with his helmet when he suddenly saw a small pale yellow shadow on the ground in front of the elephant and quickly ran away. Ahead, a large, unknown creature glowing red was hurtling toward them.
"Elephant, get out of the way!" Li You shouted unconsciously, and the behemoth that had been ambushed in the grass for a long time finally appeared in the big guy's stunned kung fu.
Li You, who re-converted his helmet into night vision goggles, stared at the thing in front of him for a long time, and he thought that traveling through time and space was enough nonsense, but he found that he was really a frog at the bottom of the well.
Of course, this is not a movie, and there is no opportunity for Li You to evaluate the appearance of the monster. As soon as the elephant turned around, the strange behemoth stretched out its long tongue and rolled up the elephant and dragged it inside.
When Sister Hua saw this scene, she scolded and chased forward with a gun. As he ran, he turned back and shouted to everyone: "Why are you stunned, hurry up and chase!" ”
