Gunshots rang out in the sea fog behind, and I don't know who was fighting, not to mention a rubber raft in order to swim ashore, even if it was a stake, a piece of foam was worth killing.

The pirates don't rush to Elysium for no reason, they must have some purpose, and this purpose should be related to some kind of interest, maybe this is the real reason why the two pirate ships are on fire.

As strong as the Seawolf was also sunk, it can be seen how dangerous this sea area is, naturally the farther away the better, but Li Chaoyang They have neither food nor fresh water, and they will die of dehydration shock in half a day if they leave rashly.

In desperation, Li Chaoyang could only choose a distant island and lean over.

The vegetation on this island is also dense, with lush mangrove forests covering the shallow waters around the island, making it ideal for hiding out, and even if someone comes for a while, they may not be able to find them, and this environment is the most likely to find food and water.

There is no difference between running away and committing suicide without being absolutely prepared.

The closer you get to the water, the shallower it becomes, you can even see the silt at the bottom of the water, and some small, colorful fish pop up at the roots of the mangrove forest from time to time, and the two people slow down and slowly lean towards a narrow waterway.

The waterway is just over a meter wide, and the branches on both sides are broken, making it seem to be a beast path that wild beasts often pass through.

The salty taste of the sea has been replaced by the rotting smell of dead branches and leaves, and the mangrove forests grow taller and taller the further you go, completely covering the sky.

The whole world suddenly became quiet, the sun spilled into the water through the gaps between the leaves, and the rubber raft gently pushed the waves forward.

Li Chaoyang: It was like they had suddenly entered a remote mountain village from the hustle and bustle of the city.

"Be careful, this kind of place can be dangerous." Li Chaoyang raised his carbine and looked around vigilantly.

The carbine he used was an American-made M4, which was light and compact, with high precision and strong firepower, and was suitable for any terrain, especially the jungle war, which was very easy to use.

Li Chaoyang, who has been hiking in the wild for a long time, knows a truth, that is, the quieter the environment, the more careful you must be, and you must not relax your vigilance at any time, such an environment is very likely to hide unknown dangers, such as fierce beasts.

The water is getting shallower and shallow, so shallow that you can clearly see the intertwined roots at your feet, and the rubber raft has gone some distance, the mangroves are getting denser and denser, and the waterways are getting narrower and narrower.

Eventually, they were blocked by the disorganized branches and could no longer move, and the sea was still under their feet, and the mangroves still had no end in sight.

Li Chaoyang did not go into the water immediately, and such an environment is most likely to hide crocodiles or snapping turtles, which are good at ambushing predators. It is best not to get injured in the absence of medical care, because any risk can be fatal, even if it is a small cold. Li Chaoyang broke off a branch and plunged into the water, shaking gently, and the leaves on the branch swayed from side to side in the water, like a living thing.

"Whoa!"

A large mouth suddenly burst out of the water, and instantly bit off half of the branch, and a gray-brown figure appeared in front of the two of them, and disappeared under the root of the tree in an instant, it was actually a moray eel, this aggressive carnivorous fish with sharp fangs, once it bites it, it will immediately tear off a large piece of meat.

Although they rarely attack humans, it is best not to provoke them at this time.

Li Chaoyang glanced up at the mangrove forest beside him, and was determined to climb over the tree.

He told Tong Fei about the plan, Tong Fei nodded and agreed, Li Chaoyang put the carbine on his back, hugged a mangrove with a thick bowl mouth with his feet violently upward, turned over and climbed up, and then reached out and grabbed Tong Fei and pulled Tong Fei up.

The two of them were soaked, and they were tired, thirsty and cold after paddling for a long time, Tong Fei bit her lip and was trembling, and her wet clothes were clinging to her body, completely outlining her angry figure.

Li Chaoyang had no intention of appreciating it, grabbed the trunk of the tree with one hand and pulled up the rubber raft with the other, unscrewed the air valve, released the air, folded it and tied it up with a belt and carried it on his back.

No resources can be wasted when trapped in the wild, and although they don't have the tools to pump up, there are many uses for this rubber raft, such as laying on the ground to insulate heat and moisture.

"I can't rest here, let's go." It was too cold in the mangroves, and they had to go out as soon as possible to find a place to dry their clothes, not to mention that it was not safe here.

Li Chaoyang climbed a mangrove tree again, and Tong Fei grabbed his hand and followed.

After passing through the mangrove forest, the two of them finally went down to the ground, and what appeared in front of them was a banyan forest, the huge banyan tree covered the sky and the sun, the branches and leaves were crowded together, and in some places even the sunlight could not penetrate, countless fibrous roots grew from the branches, and the ground was dark and damp and full of fallen leaves, and it was soft and collapsed when stepped on, and there was a strange fishy smell in the air.

There was still a dead silence all around, and nothing could be heard.

Li Chaoyang picked up a stone and threw it out, and while throwing out the stone, Li Chaoyang pulled Tong Fei to his side and squatted down, and the stone rolled a few times on the fallen leaves and stopped.

After several seconds without any movement, Li Chaoyang walked out, he was engrossed in his carbine and paid attention to every move around him, Tong Fei followed closely behind him and did not dare to stay away half a step.

The closer you get to the place where you just threw the stone, the more obvious the fishy smell becomes.

Tong Fei subconsciously glanced at the stone that Li Chaoyang had just thrown, and suddenly found that the stone was gone.

Is this a delusion?

She blinked and was sure she was right, the stone was really gone.

"Li Chaoyang, where are the stones you lost?" Tong Feila Li Chaoyang asked in a low voice.

Stone?

Li Chaoyang turned his head and found that the stone was missing.

"Be careful!" Tong Fei suddenly shouted loudly, and at the same time pushed Li Chaoyang violently.

Li Chaoyang took a few steps forward and fell to the ground, he turned over and found that Tong Fei's legs had sunk in, and the mud with a fishy smell slowly turned out, and the ground around him was shaking, it turned out that this was a muddy swamp where they had just stood.

The reason why the stone disappeared was that it was completely swallowed up by the swamp.

Li Chaoyang secretly scolded himself for being too careless, if it wasn't for Tong Fei pushing him, he would have fallen into it at this moment.

"Don't move, don't move!" Li Chaoyang comforted Tong Fei while looking around looking for a way to save people.

The diameter of this quagmire is about three or four meters, and Tong Fei is in the middle of the quagmire, even if he unties the belt and throws it over, he can't reach it.

Li Chaoyang quickly took down the rubber raft, unfolded it and threw it over.

"Get on your stomach and try to make as much contact as possible." Li Chaoyang picked up a dead branch and threw it over: "Put it horizontally, don't be nervous, I will definitely save you." ”

Tong Fei immediately complied, quickly spread the rubber raft on the mire, and slowly leaned over with a wooden stick in both hands.

"Pull your feet up slowly."

Li Chaoyang pulled out the dagger and quickly cut off a tree root more than one meter long and handed it over, Tong Fei reached out to reach it, and suddenly found that there seemed to be a white thing hidden under the leaves beside her, she couldn't help but open it and take a closer look, it was the skull of a large rodent, long fangs, black hole hole eye sockets, and some scattered hairs on the side.

Look at it as an otter.

Next to the otter were the skulls of two small animals, one of the feline family and the other of some kind of snake.

"Hold on, what are you looking at?" Li Chaoyang was anxious.

Tong Fei struggled forward, but no matter how hard she tried, she was just a little bit behind.

The distance of tens of centimeters is like a moat at this moment.

Seeing this, Li Chaoyang also climbed down, and pressed his hands on the mire, which was covered with a lot of dead branches and leaves, forming a thick shell, just because Li Chaoyang, who was in the forefront of this shell, would not fall down immediately.

But the more you get to the middle of the mire, the less buoyant it is, if it weren't for Tong Fei's early discovery and pushing, the two of them would probably be trapped in the mire.

The viscosity of the thin mud in the mire is very high, like glue, which grabbed Tong Fei's feet, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get out.

This time, Tong Fei was only a few centimeters away from the roots, but this was already the limit.

"I remember!" Tong Fei said suddenly.

"Remember?" Li Chaoyang asked.

"I remember what that smell was? It was the smell of snakes, I had smelled them before, and I couldn't be wrong about them, and the bones were probably the ones it ate after it was going to die. Tong Fei said.

Snake?

When she said this, she also reminded Li Chaoyang that this smell was indeed like the smell of a snake, and it was not a strange thing for a snake to appear in such an environment.

However, Tong Fei said one thing wrong, that is, the snake's fangs are not used to eat, the snake does not eat like a feline to tear and chew, but swallow it whole, its gastric juice is extremely corrosive, even the hardest skull will be digested.

Although Tong Fei is very sensitive to taste, she is shallow after all.

Li Chaoyang was about to give Tong Feipu a look, when he suddenly smelled an even stronger fishy smell, and there was a rustling sound from his head.

Both of them raised their heads, and they saw a huge python as thick as a bowl slowly poking its head out, and the huge snake head was spitting out letters, hovering above Li Chaoyang's head.
