Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Worst Guess

Thinking of the horror of the matter, the faces of the three people were not very good-looking, and a trace of anxiety and uneasiness rose in my heart.

The Taoist priest is an optimist, even if he knows that tomorrow is the end of the world, he can still be chic today, so he is the first to jump out of his uneasiness.

"Oh,, you two are just worrying about nothing, aren't they just scratches, as for scaring you like this? Reporter, don't you forget, we haven't broken through this dangerous and terrifying place, haven't we come out alive and sound?

According to the Taoist master, this is just some ordinary scratches, which happen to be similar to people's paw prints, not as evil as you think, if there are really so many sharks in this world, I am afraid that his mother will not know how many restaurants and restaurants have been opened, either braised or braised or steamed! Hey, wasn't it extinct on the other side of the East China Sea more than a thousand years ago? ”

I was amused by the Taoist priest's optimism, and said to him with a smile: "Okay, it's rare that Daoist you are interested, if we really meet at that time, the doctor and I will definitely catch one and come back and roast it for you, and it will be a change of taste!" ”

The Taoist priest laughed and said that he didn't eat the meat, the merman and the merman, although it was an alien, but after all, it was a human character, and he looked like a human, he couldn't eat it, but if he caught one and sold it to the zoo, he could still consider it.

We all laughed, and the anxiety and uneasiness in our hearts were diluted in this joke, but the doctor frowned, and his eyes stayed on the hull of the boat, and then turned to the still turbulent water, not knowing what he was thinking.

I persuaded him to stop thinking about it, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and what the Taoist priest said is not unreasonable, maybe this is just our excessive association, in fact, the traces on the ship are not the same thing as we imagined.

The doctor sighed and said, "It's good to keep an optimistic mindset, but blind self-deception will only put us in crisis!" ”

I heard what the doctor was saying, so I asked him why he said that.

The doctor glanced at me and the Taoist priest, and with a look of worry in his eyes, he pointed to the claw marks on the hull of the ship and said to us, "Do you remember the severed hand in the abdomen of the dead body?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the bodies of me and the Taoist priest stiffened at the same time, and the uneasiness that had been diluted in my heart came back to my heart, and even more intensely.

We didn't dwell on this issue any longer, because it was getting dark, and we had to have enough firewood before it got dark to get through the night, which was destined to be a long night.

The Taoist priest has a lot of experience in making bonfires, because of the rainstorm that has just fallen for three days, the firewood is a little damp, and the three girls have not lit it for a long time, but the Taoist priest has just passed less than a minute, and the bonfire is burning in the cheers of the girls.

The Taoist priest was quite proud of this, and told the girls that he had traveled the world with his master since he was a child, practicing everywhere through mountains and mountains, and he spent 300 days in the mountains and wilderness for 365 days a year, and no one was more familiar with these than him.

The so-called cultivation of the Taoist priest is actually a wandering party, and to put it bluntly, it is to go around doing things for people to make money to make ends meet, and at this time, I don't bother to expose him.

The next time, the girls cooked, and the three of us picked up all the firewood that could be burned nearby, and it was estimated that it would be more than enough to burn until noon tomorrow, so we stopped.

At the same time, dinner was done.

Our dinner was very simple, game jerky and biscuit paste, although the method was simple, but because Xiu Ling added a lot of spices from the boat, this pot of things was made extraordinarily fragrant, and we were indeed hungry, and soon this big pot of things was swept away, and there was not even any residue left.

After eating, about half an hour later, it was completely dark, and although the place where we camped was open, the shade of the trees above us was not sparse, and the sporadic starlight in the sky could not shine down, and the whole forest was in a deep darkness below the canopy.

The light of the campfire illuminated the vicinity four or five meters away, making the place where we slept overnight the only source of light in the forest, except for the pond where the stars reflected in the sky in the distance.

I felt an inexplicable sense of unease in this situation, and I always felt that the light of the campfire, while intimidating the beasts, would draw all the eyes of the surrounding forest to us, and it would always be unpleasant to expose ourselves to the spotlight in a dangerous environment, whether the gaze was malicious or not.

People in the rivers and lakes, involuntarily, at least for the moment this fire can bring us light at the same time, dispel most of the dangers, more importantly, with the fire, our spirit will have comfort, not to be at a loss.

We originally planned to sleep on the boat, but when we found those claw marks, the boat could no longer guarantee our safety, so after we discussed, we divided the people into three groups, the doctor and Xiuling group, the Taoist priest and Lin Qiao'er group, and I and Sister Bailing group, took turns to get on the boat to rest, and the night watchman should not only be alert to the danger from the forest, but also pay attention to the movement in the water.

The Taoist priest actually wanted to be in a group with Sister Bailing, but Sister Bailing said that she had something to talk to me about alone, so the Taoist priest had to give up.

It was just getting dark, so we set up some triggering alarms a little further away from the campfire to prevent something from sneaking up on us.

When this was done, we roasted the fire for a while, and it was not until about half-past eight, when the feeling of tiredness rose up, that no one came on board to rest.

Considering the curse on me, although the moon could not be seen in this place, they arranged for me to be the first vigil, from eight o'clock to half past eleven, just in case.

Around nine o'clock, there were only me and Sister Bailing left around the bonfire, and of course, the third child had to be counted.

With the two relatives of the third child and Sister Bailing, the uneasiness in my heart has eased a lot, plus I haven't seen Sister Bailing for a while, and a lot of things have happened during this period, and I will never end chatting with Sister Bailing.

The encounter in the ancient town, the discovery of Luogang Village, and the experience of Maoshan Mountain, I told Sister Bailing these experiences without any reservations.

Sister Bailing was also surprised, she didn't expect that not long after leaving her hometown, I had actually experienced so many deaths, her bright eyes looked at me without blinking, listening to what I had to say, every time I said something thrilling, she also became nervous, holding my hand and squeezing it tightly, as if she was afraid that I would suddenly disappear.

After I finished talking about these experiences, Sister Bailing touched my head with a distressed face, and sighed lightly: "Xiaoyi, it's really hard for you!" ”
