Chapter 779: Stinky Lake
Chu Xiao walked around the forest for a long time, and found that there were weeds and mosquitoes everywhere, and he was unlucky enough to be bitten by mosquitoes several times.
The mosquitoes here have obviously not bitten many people, but they are very large, and a bite immediately makes a big bag, itchy and painful.
Chu Xiao couldn't stand it for a long time, but for the sake of planning, he could only spray potions and continue to look for it.
After turning around for a while, and looking at the surrounding environment, he also felt that Yu Ziye would not put things. Hiding in the woods.
Even if it was hidden, the place would be easy to see.
When he was pondering, Yu Zichen said that he wanted to go to the cliff to have a look, and let him take someone to take a look in the forest.
Chu Xiao agreed at that time and asked him to be careful.
"Yu Ziye's man is very cunning, even if he really lets us find something, there will definitely be traps and something like that. You be careful. ”
"Got it, you should be careful."
After talking on both sides, Yu Zichen led people to find a convenient route out of the woods first.
The perimeter of the island is almost entirely wooded, with a small lake in the middle of the woods, some weed-covered flatland, and only a cliff on the other side of the island.
The sea on the edge of the cliff was covered with reefs, and they just couldn't get ashore from that side, so they chose the woods.
Yu Zichen led the people out of the woods and into the hinterland in the middle of the island.
It's still overgrown with weeds, many of which grow taller than a human and have sharp leaves that can easily be scratched if you don't prepare for them.
Fortunately, they were all dressed tightly, with hats on their heads and masks on their faces, which were not easy to get scratched.
Although it is autumn, the island is a little hot, and there are many mosquitoes around, and everyone does not dare to take off their masks and hats.
It's hard to see fresh blood here, and if you see a place that can attack, you will inevitably rush to it. If you don't want to be stared at by bugs, you have to endure it.
Many people have already sweated all over their bodies, and they can only wipe it occasionally, but their expressions dare not relax at all.
And Yu Zichen seemed very calm, and he couldn't see that he was hot.
The four bodyguards next to him looked at him, and always felt that this iceberg Yu Zong might not know what heat is. After all, people themselves are icebergs, and no matter how hot the weather is, it can't get hot.
Everyone walked forward while being vigilant, and they all quickened their pace because they wanted to reach the cliff early.
When passing by the lake, Yu Zichen walked to the water's edge and looked inside.
The water in this lake is not very clear, it is a little muddy, there are many mosquitoes flying on it, and there is a carcass of a little rabbit by the lake. The rabbit was blackened, apparently killed by a poisonous snake.
Now it's crawling with maggots, and the flies are spinning around, and it's disgusting to watch.
The four bodyguards couldn't help but walk to the side, so as not to get contaminated with the stench over there.
Yu Zichen didn't seem to see it, and walked to the water's edge again.
When the bodyguard saw him walking forward, he couldn't help but come over and remind: "Mr. Yu, the edge of this lake looks very shallow, but in fact, the edge is very steep. It's deep inside, so don't go any further. ”
What if a person falls into this stinking water, drinks dirty water, and becomes infected?
Yu Zichen didn't go any further, just looked inside, and walked along the lake again.
The bodyguards didn't know what he was doing, what was there to see about this undrinkable lake. But everyone didn't ask, they carried out the order with their heads down, and followed him around.
After Yu Zichen finished walking, he stopped not far from the corpse of the little rabbit, looked at the cliff again, with a grim expression.
Without saying a word, he took the lead and headed towards the cliff, without saying what he was doing just now.
Confused, the bodyguards looked into the lake, then turned around and followed him.
Yu Zichen walked out of the lake with people, and the road ahead was even more difficult.
The previous roads were relatively soft, and although there were many weeds, the ground was relatively flat, so as long as the weeds were cleared, it could be unobstructed.
But the farther away from the lake and the closer you get to the cliffs, the more stones there are on the way. Dense weeds grew in the crevices of the stones, which not only blocked the road ahead, but also covered the stones, so that people could not even find a place to put their feet.
And it's not just stones, there are pits in some places.
One accidentally either stepped on a smooth stone and fell, or stepped on a sharp stone, or stepped on a deep pit and almost broke his foot.
In another place, there was a big pothole on the side of the road. The pit was full of grass, and I couldn't see the depth. Someone slipped over there and almost fell into the pit.
He didn't think the pit was so deep that he thought he would be able to get up soon. Who knew that when I slid over, I found that the pit was quite deep, and I was shocked into a cold sweat at that time.
Fortunately, the person next to him quickly pulled him out with a quick hand.
When both of them stood at the edge of the pit and hit the grass with a stick, they found that the whole pit was covered with grass, and they couldn't see the details inside.
But in fact, there is a one-and-a-half-meter-wide slit inside, and that slit is very deep, and if a person falls into it, even if he can't die, it will be difficult to rescue him.
The two of them were terrified after palpitations, and hurriedly stayed away from the pit.
Yu Zichen looked over there and asked several people to walk carefully, so as not to have another accident.
Everyone should also get down, and after that, they walked more carefully.
Yu Zichen looked at everyone's expressions and was also a lot more relieved.
Originally, this was a desert island, and there was no one on it, and the bodyguards were a little lax after they came out. Thinking that there would be no big traps or beasts on this small island, they naturally ignored many dangers.
However, surviving in the wild is not that easy. There are many subtle places that can kill people, and it is not okay not to be vigilant.
Fortunately, these people have finally paid attention to them now, but he doesn't have to worry about these people anymore.
A few people walked forward for a while, and Chu Xiao sent a message again, asking them how they were doing here.
Yu Zichen asked people to hold a mirror to reflect the sun's rays and pass it to Chu Xiao, so that Chu Xiao could know where they were now.
Soon, Chu Xiao also took the mirror and reflected it back and told them his location.
He was still in the forest with his people, but he had gone a little farther, so that he might see the whole forest so that nothing would be missed.
After the two sides passed the message, they set off again.
The mirror on Yu Zichen's side has always been held in his hand, reflecting a little sunlight from time to time, so that Chu Xiao's side can see their location at any time.
In this case, if something happens here, Chu Xiao's side can also know about it as soon as possible.
And Yu Zichen led people to the cliff quickly.
It's just that there are some weeds on this cliff except for broken stones, and it doesn't look like it's hidden.
Yu Zichen asked people to scatter around to see where they had been excavated, or where they had set up mechanisms.
Thinking that this desert island is inaccessible, even if there is a mechanism, it will not be a very large and complicated mechanism, and it should not be difficult to find.
However, while they were searching, no one noticed what was buried under a stone.
There was a red light on the thing that flickered and flickered, and the red was bright like blood.
