Chapter 92

After eating the smoked ham in the meal, Luo turned his head to look at the old man.

"Will you eat?"

He shook the remaining sandwiches from the meal.

As a result, the old man shook his head again and again.

"Eat, eat, I'...... Recently in weight loss ......"

It can be seen that he does dislike the sandwich made by his wife......

……

"I'm full, too."

Luo thought for a moment, put the lid of the lunch box back, and put the lunch box back in the old man's backpack.

"Thank you."

"Oh, you're welcome, you're welcome, I'm glad you like the bacon I made."

The old man waved his hand, pulled out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator and handed it to Luo.

Luo was naturally not polite, he took the beer and drank it.

"So...... Are you from the expedition team? The old man asked tentatively.

"Huh?" Luo didn't react for a while.

"There are often some scientific expedition departments that organize teams to go deep into the rainforest to investigate, you should be lost with your own team, right?"

As he spoke, the old man withdrew his line and pulled the hooked fish out of the water.

"Well, sort of." Luo hesitated for a moment, nodded and said.

"Then you are still clever, you know that you can walk out along this river, you must know that the terrain in this rainforest is very complicated, like a maze, the scientific expedition team that goes in often gets lost, and last year there was a seven-person documentary shooting team that lost contact collectively, and the police did not find it for a month, and finally it was gone."

The old man grabbed the fish he had caught, took the hook out of its mouth, and threw the fish back into the river.

He looked back at Law, who was sitting on the ground.

Then he stood up and walked to his backpack, took out a trench coat from his backpack and handed it to Luo.

"It's not wise to put on a hat even though it's hot, and it's not wise to be shirtless in the woods, because the mosquitoes here are very poisonous."

Luo nodded and took the windbreaker handed over by the old man.

He knew that the old man was very curious about the scars on his body, but he didn't ask about it, so he didn't need to explain anything.

Although the symbiote gave him the ability to regenerate metamorphosis, the wound after healing still had a faint scar, which was much more subtle than the scar after normal metabolism healing, but it was still visible.

For example, the narwhal tattoo on his back, torn by a claw knife, still remains broken.

A narwhal cut off by the waist......

As for the wounds on his face, there were still faint marks, but the scars were fine enough, so they weren't disfigured, although Luo himself didn't care about them.

……

The lower half of his body is wearing pants and military boots in a tactical suit, although all the guns and other thermal weapons have been destroyed in the previous battle, but his outfit is obviously not what a scientific expedition member should have, but since the old man ignored Luo's scar and said that he was a scientific expedition team, then Luo didn't mind being a scientific expedition member.

It can be seen that people who have lived for most of their lives still have some eyesight.

The old man knew that he could not suspect or delve into Luo's identity, let alone mention anything like contacting the police.

Because then Luo might make some necessary moves.

……

And if the old man really has the idea of calling the police, Luo will definitely stop it.

Fortunately, the old man was very wise.

He still leisurely put bait on the hook and threw it into the river.

In this way, the old and the young get along quite well for the time being.

……

"You're Asian, right? Korean? ”

The old man opened a bottle of cold beer and asked Luo.

"China."

Law replied.

"Then you must be of mixed race, my niece's husband is also Asian, but I don't remember which country, their son looks like you, with black hair but blue eyes."

The old man said.

"Sort of."

Law nodded.

He's not very good at this type of chat.

In other words, he is not good at any kind of chat, especially with such elder-level characters aimlessly.

If Qiao was sitting here, he should be able to talk to the old man well, but Luo couldn't do it.

"You look young."

The old man didn't seem to notice Luo's helpless expression at all.

"I'm sixteen."

"I really envy you young people, full of energy, and so much time to spare." The old man said with a sigh.

“……”

Luo didn't know how to answer this at all.

The conversation between the two of them was basically one question from the old man and one answer from Law.

Extreme stiffness.

……

After drinking the beer in his hand, Luo finally didn't have the heart to continue to consume it here.

He asked the old man:

"Do you have a communication device? Mobile phones and computers are fine. ”

"Oh, yes, yes, I have a tablet in my backpack." The old man said, pointing to the backpack on the ground.

Law took out the old man's computer from his backpack.

"However, I should not be able to connect to the network signal ......"

“……”

Luo, who had just turned on his computer, also noticed this, and the signal sign at the top of the screen showed a yellow exclamation mark.

"It's a bit off the service area." The old man craned his head and glanced at the computer screen.

"Uh...... Otherwise, I'll take you back, if you're in a hurry to contact your friends. ”

"Then I'm sorry for you."

Law nodded.

He really needed to get out of here as soon as possible.

"No trouble, no trouble, let's clean it up."

The old man struggled to get up from the folding chair, and the "oppressed" folding chair could finally take a breath.

Luo helped him put the fishing rod back, stuffed other things into his backpack, and lifted the old man's portable Xiaoice box.

"If you go this way, my car is parked outside the woods, and you should be able to receive a signal after driving about ten miles outside."

The old man walked towards a path in the woods.

……

After a short forest path, a road close to the edge of the rainforest appeared in front of Law.

The old man's mountain buggy was parked on the side of the road.

He slowly climbed into the driver's seat and beckoned to Luo to get into the car.

……

After the car started, it began to drive along the road in the direction of the town in the distance.

At this time, the sun in the sky was not as soft as it was in the early morning, and the scorching sun scorched everything on the asphalt road.

Luo was wearing the old man's windbreaker, although he didn't zip it up, he still felt stuffy.

The wind blowing in outside the car window was nothing more than a heat wave.

……

Luo looked indifferently at the unfamiliar scenery outside the car window.

The old man wanted to say something, but when he saw Luo's appearance, he also closed his mouth in amusement.

The car slowly drove away from the rainforest, which was full of life.
