Chapter Forty-Seven: The Swamp of Terror

That night, Xiang Sha did not tell Wei Chiran and Fang Xunyi the story of the group of Englishmen who went to the other side of the valley to tell the story, saying that he was too tired and needed to rest.

The four of them rested all night in the large room on the second floor, of course, Wei Chiran didn't sleep well, and Fang Xunyi was very uncomfortable because he had to pretend to sleep.

In addition, Zhong Shan led his two corpses to live next to him, so throughout the night, Wei Chiran opened his eyes from time to time to look at the two corpses in the corner.

Every time he saw the two corpses, Wei Chiran would see the picture of the night his parents were killed, they died so strangely, and the cause of death verified by the police was only myocardial infarction.

Could it be that they also turned into human corpses?

With messy thoughts, he slept all night in a daze, and before dawn, Xiangsha woke up a few people and told them that they had to go on the road.

Wei Chi got up and looked at his watch, and found that it was only five o'clock in the morning, and asked in wonder, "This is too early, right?" ”

Xiangsha packed up his things and said, "We must set off at this time, as for the reason, you will know later." ”

After everyone left the area of the underworld and entered the primeval jungle, Xiangsha did not explain why, but only urged them to move forward along the way.

After walking for about two hours, the group came to a swamp.

Xiangsha stopped and said, "From here on, you have to step on my footprints, don't step on the wrong step, otherwise you may fall into it at any time." ”

Wei Chiran looked at the swamp in front of him, although it was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes, it was completely different from what he had known before, because this swamp was in a dense jungle, and the forest was full of large trees, and there were many red bushes.

The strangest thing is that the shrubs grow on top of the mounds above the ground.

Moreover, the so-called swamp seems to be just a puddle scattered in the forest, and the water in the pit is not muddy, but very clear, and you can see fish swimming from time to time.

Wei Chiran looked at the swamp: "I have never seen such a swamp. ”

Xiangsha looked down at the ground: "The more beautiful things are on the surface, the more dangerous they are, and what you see now is just the appearance." ”

Fang Xunyi wondered: "Appearance? ”

Xiangsha said: "If you don't hurry up and pass through here, the heaven in front of you will soon turn into hell." ”

The three of them followed Elephant Sha in a circle in the swamp, the reason why they had to walk like this was entirely because of Elephant Sha's experience, he knew how to walk around the dangerous area, after all, it was better to go around in a circle than to fall into a swamp trap.

After wandering around like this for an hour, Wei Chi noticed a thin layer of mist on the surface of the swamp, and at the same time, Xiangsha also stopped, and at the same time raised his fist to signal the others to stop as well.

Fang Xunyi asked, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Xiangsha sighed and said, "Trapped, there is no way to go anymore, from now until the early hours of the morning, we can only wait here." ”

Wei Chi hurriedly asked, "Why?" ”

Before Xiangsha could explain, Guan Hongru put down the corpse of his wife on his back and said lightly: "Because of the fog, that's why he let us set off in the early morning." ”

"Mist?" Wei Chiran still didn't understand, "What's wrong with the fog?" ”

Xiangsha pointed to the swamp at his feet and said, "Look at it. ”

Wei Chiran and Fang Xunyi looked carefully, only to find that the fog began to slowly become more and thicker, and it was only below the ankle before, but it was almost to the knee at this time, and because of the fog, they couldn't see the terrain of the swamp clearly, even if they knew everything about it, they could only stop.

Xiangsha explained: "From 8 a.m. to 1 a.m., the swamp will be flooded with fog, and the visibility will be almost zero, and it will be almost impossible to get out in these conditions, so we have to hurry up and walk a little more, and see the tree in front of us?" ”

Xiangsha pointed to a large tree about ten meters in front of him.

Wei Chi said: "See, do you want to go over?" ”

Xiangsha nodded, "Yes, we have to go over, there is a field under that big tree, just enough to accommodate five or six people." ”

Wei Chiran looked at the underground shrouded in mist: "But this situation, how can it pass?" ”

Xiangsha closed his eyes and said: "With memory, follow me, try to be next to me, if you can't step on the footprints, just follow closely." ”

Wei Chiran, Fang Xunyi, and Guan Hongru immediately followed closely behind Xiangsha and walked slowly towards the tree.

Of course, Wei Chiran and the others in the rear didn't know that Xiangsha really closed his eyes at this time, and moved towards the big tree step by step with his past memories.

Wei Chiran lowered his head and followed Xiangsha as carefully as possible, but after walking less than five meters, the corner of Wei Chiran's eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of something in the dense fog next to him, just like the fog was water, and the tumbling thing was a fish.

Wei Chiran stopped and looked at that position, Fang Xunyi bumped into him and asked, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Wei Chi said: "There seems to be something there?" ”

Xiangsha in front of him said: "Don't worry about that, hurry up and go, and talk about it when you get to the place." ”

The four of them continued to move forward, and when they finally reached the bottom of the tree, they took a long breath, and Xiangsha immediately drew a circle in mid-air with his hand and said, "Don't stay away from the root of this tree, no matter what happens, don't leave, understand?" ”

Wei Chi nodded and said, "Then we have to wait until midnight?" ”

The sweat of the sand fell in large pieces: "I hope we can last until midnight, it's my fault, the time is poor, if we estimate it half an hour earlier, it will be too late." ”

Fang Xunyi remembered something: "You are the kind of corpse ant that you caught here, right?" ”

Xiangsha nodded, "Yes, right here." ”

Wei Chiran was curious: "How did you find this place?" ”

Xiangsha hesitated for a moment and said, "Carry out the mission." ”

The lieutenant asked belatedly: "The task of the military?" ”

"Yes, it was an arrest mission, to capture a fugitive drug dealer." Xiangsha fell into his memory, "At that time, our team of 12 people, in the process of carrying out the arrest mission, there were no casualties, but because of the weather, the helicopter could not land at the predetermined location, we were worried about being besieged by local drug dealers, so we could only take a shortcut to return, who knew that we walked into this swamp." ”

Wei Chi asked uninterestingly, "Then what happened?" ”

Xiangsha sighed and said: "After entering the swamp, because I didn't figure out the shape, there were 4 people who fell into the swamp, this swamp is different from other swamps, once people fall in, they will not slowly fall, but will disappear in an instant, just like those puddles are the bloody mouths of monsters." ”

When Xiang Sha said this, Wei Chiran and Fang Xunyi shuddered, especially Fang Xunyi, a person like him who would not die, if he fell in, he would be trapped here forever, it was really a life and death.

Xiangsha looked at the dense fog and said, "Anyway, when I went back that time, there were only 4 people left." Well, hurry up and rest, you have to hurry at night, because of the shortcut, so this road will be very difficult. ”

Wei Chiran wondered: "Why take a shortcut?" Can't you go anywhere else? ”

Guan Hongru interjected next to him: "If we don't take this road, we only have two choices, either we will go through the area controlled by the Burmese military, or we will risk passing through the territory of smallpox." ”

Guan Hongru said that smallpox is an international criminal organization, this organization mainly sells drugs, it can be said to do what to make money, human trafficking, organ trafficking, and so on, because their power is developing very rapidly, just like infectious diseases, so they call themselves "smallpox".

These bastards control one of the routes from country T to Mongun, and are the most terrifying armed group on the outskirts of the Golden Triangle. There was a reporter who wanted to conduct an in-depth interview, and as soon as he entered and found that the people there were particularly friendly, he relaxed his vigilance and wanted to write an article satirizing the surrounding international police and international anti-narcotics organizations, believing that they had framed these simple people.

After these reporters went deep into the smallpox territory, they found themselves completely trapped, they were asked by smallpox to do a lot of things that they couldn't actually do in exchange for freedom, and even played some cruel games, if you succeeded, you can leave, and finally these reporters died tragically one after another, and the interview video they left behind was also deliberately put on the Internet by smallpox, with the intention of warning people from the outside world not to enter their world easily.

Therefore, no one can pass through the smallpox territory, and although these problems do not exist in the areas controlled by the Burmese military, it will take at least several months to apply for them, and it is simply too late.

Speaking of this, Xiangsha told again: "Don't light a fire, this place is easy to burn." ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Is it because of biogas?" ”

Xiangsha nodded: "Yes, because of the methane, this swamp will produce white fog during the day because of the increase in temperature, and the white fog will slowly rise, and it will reach one meter six at the highest time, and if people sit down here, they will be overwhelmed by the white fog." ”

Fang Xunyi asked, "Are these fogs poisonous?" ”

Xiangsha shook his head: "It's not poisonous, but it will reduce visibility, and there are many mysterious things in this swamp, in layman's terms, they are monsters, and corpse ants are just one of them." ”

The lieutenant was startled for a moment, thinking of the thing he had seen tumbling in the fog earlier: "Monster? ”

Xiangsha took out a small loaf of bread from his backpack, got up and said, "Pay attention." ”

As he spoke, Xiangsha threw the bread directly into the distance, and at the moment when the bread was about to fall into the dense fog in the distance, something shot out from the side, directly rolled the bread, and dragged it back at a very fast speed.

When they saw this scene, Wei Chiran and Fang Xunyi were dumbfounded, what was that?

Xiangsha knew what the two of them wanted to say, but he couldn't explain it, he just said: "I don't know what it is, just know that when the fog comes, don't run around, keep it almost still, and wait for the fog to dissipate." ”

At this moment, Guan Hongru looked at Xiangsha and asked a sharp question: "I want to know, how did you know about such a thing as corpse ants?" It can't be an accident, right? ”

This question Wei Chiran and Fang Xunyi also wanted to know, although Xiangsha had been here, it didn't mean that he knew about corpse ants and knew how to catch corpse ants, he was definitely not the so-called first person to eat crabs.

Xiangsha was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Originally, I didn't want to say it, but since I came here, in order to ensure that you can believe me, I can only tell the truth, I am an important witness of PW, which is commonly known as black evidence." ”
