The night wind made its way through the jungle, and there was a rustling sound.

The mist under the waterfall drifts in the wind, and the soaking bonfire is swaying and extinguishing.

Li Ling rubbed his bare skin full of goosebumps vigorously, only feeling wet and cool, and couldn't help but shiver.

"It's weird, isn't it? I almost scorched people during the day! Li Ling couldn't help but mutter.

"Shh Naine put a finger on her lips.

Li Ling strangely forgot to forget his surroundings, it was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything. There were stars in the sky, but there was no trace of the moon.

Stepby, too, woke up and was looking around alertly. But Naine waved his hand, signaling him to be quiet.

The vigilance of the two made Li Ling's heart tighten, and he stared closely at the depths of the bushes.

A dark shadow thicker than the night caught his eye, and when he wanted to see it more closely. "Whoa!" There was a loud sound, and a black tornado rushed into the sky, circling in the sky and then flying away. Only one towering tree remained.

"What the hell is that?!" Li Ling asked in a lost voice.

"It's just a flock of birds!" Nayin said. "Maybe we were alarmed. Go to sleep, and if you're always making a fuss, don't plan to sleep tonight. ”

Li Ling wanted to ask again. Khanaine was already prone on the ground, motionless. I had to lie on the ground with my head down, but I couldn't sleep, thinking about Nayin's words in my heart.

It wasn't until the sky was about to dawn that Li Ling was about to fall asleep in a daze. But I was still awakened by the sound of a gurgling rope.

In the starlight, he saw Naine walking into the jungle in the distance. The next moment, a strange cry of "Woo-woo-" came from the direction where Naine had walked into the jungle.

After a short while, Naine walked back as if nothing had happened, and curled up again beside the burned campfire.

This time, Li Ling couldn't sleep anymore. My mind is full of weird images of a big rabbit suffering from nocturnal wandering syndrome and learning wolf howl in the dark jungle.

What's more, this big rabbit has extraordinary intelligence, and his round eyes seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts, as if they are hiding some secrets.

He desperately wanted to return to his companions, especially worried about Qin Xiaoyu's safety. I even thought about walking upstream along the stream the next morning, and maybe I would be able to meet them.

Otherwise, he thinks he's going crazy!

……

At dawn, Li Ling couldn't wait to say goodbye.

"Am I being inhospitable?" Naine said in surprise. "According to the plan, we will be together for a long time, and I will help you understand the world better."

"What could be more important than finding my companion!?" Li Ling said. "Even if you save me, you have no right to restrict my freedom!"

"No, don't be angry, it's not worth it." Naiyin didn't seem to want to offend Li Ling. "If you really think about your peers, you should take the advice of an elder Buson."

Li Ling was a little angry, Nai Yin not only wanted to restrict his freedom, but also was a little arrogant, so he sarcastically said: "I didn't think of accepting the suggestion of a nocturnal rabbit!" ”

"Nocturnal wanderer?" Naine's eyes widened. "You're talking about the time I went out last night, right? It was a pack of foraging beasts, and I went out to persuade them away. ”

"Persuade? Stop bluffing! Even if you have an amazing talent for language, you can send a group of hungry beasts with just one mouth?! ”

"It seems that the time is not yet ripe. You're not ready to make sense of the world, just as I can't imagine yours. Nayin shook her head painfully, turned sideways slightly, and motioned for Li Ling to leave.

Li Ling was stunned, solemnly saluted Naiyin, and said, "No matter what, I will remember your kindness and hospitality." ”

"I hope so. If you're going to come back to me, follow this stream. Naine nodded, then leaped forward, leaping a few meters away at once.

Li Ling let out a sigh of relief, feeling that the whole person was also a lot more relaxed. Being stared at by a big rabbit is like a dark cloud hanging over your head.

The dazzling sunlight slanted down, and Li Ling felt that the temperature around him was rising rapidly, and he couldn't help muttering whether there was a cold virus in Soul, and if so, a cold and fever alone would be enough for everyone.

Now, except for a short shirt with excellent flexibility, he can be said to be poor and white. I had to fold a small trunk of a suitable length as a self-defense weapon.

Yesterday, Naine and Si Daobi led the way in front, but I didn't feel that tired. Now walking back alone, Li Ling only felt very difficult. Whether it's scorching heat or rough terrain.

Fortunately, there were no beasts along the way, only a few small animals that could not be named approached boldly, and most of them seemed curious and clever.

Li Ling waved the branches a few times casually, and the small animals scattered in a hurry.

Along the way, Li Ling has been regretting that he forgot to inquire about the human forerunners.

At noon, Li Ling was pondering whether to learn Nayin's method, catch some fish or small animals and roast them, when he saw that familiar figure.

Naine was alone, huddled in a ball on the bluestone not far away, and it looked like she had been there for a long time. This made Li Ling feel a little ashamed, his speed was too slow.

"Nayin!" Li Ling reluctantly greeted him. "Are you waiting for me?!"

"I know you're a new human, and I know about the ship that fell into the lake." Naine gets straight to the point. "So, I have a little advice for you!"

Li Ling should have guessed this a long time ago, so he wasn't particularly surprised, just straightened his waist and said solemnly: "Say it, Naiyin." ”

"First of all, stay calm! Always stay calm! Naine said solemnly.

"I'll try my best! I'm highly trained. And he is deeply influenced by Taoist thought. Li Ling said half-jokingly.

Naine didn't respond to his humor, and continued, "Second, don't try to find your so-called forerunners, and draw a line with them. ”

"Why?!" Li Ling immediately asked rhetorically, that was their first priority after a successful landing.

"Because ......" Nain paused and said, "They're lost!" ”

Li Ling wanted to ask again, but Nayin then said, "I can't tell you too much, no one can bear that terrible truth." ”

After speaking, Nain's body suddenly lengthened and shortened. After a few jumps, it disappears from view.

Along the way, Li Ling has been pondering Nayin's words. He speculated that a war broke out between the Precursors and the Busen. Then, he became a target of rebellion.

"It's just wishful thinking, I'm a soldier who understands righteousness!" Li Ling muttered to himself.

But just in case, he decides to keep Naine and his advice a secret. If he had guessed correctly, he would at least not be considered a spy by his companions and forerunners.

But he quickly rejected his own idea. If that were the case, Naine could have used some of the tragic stories of the Busen people to arouse his sympathy and anger against the precursors. There is no need to say these bizarre, even veiled advices.

There was a mess in his mind, but Li Ling at least knew that the human forerunners had indeed come to this planet, and they were not lured by the intelligent creatures of this planet!

"Anyway, I had to join my companions first. As for the rest, I'm afraid it's not up to me to decide! Li Ling knocked on his swollen head and quickened his pace again.

On the way, Li Ling found a place where the water flow was not turbulent, and wanted to catch a few fish to eat, but in the end he only caught a few soft and disgusting-looking bugs.

In desperation, he had to find some berries in the bushes with thick skin and little flesh, and a sour taste to eat.

Fortunately, Li Ling found a tall tree at the end of the bushes, which bore some brightly colored fruits, and the hungry Li Ling didn't think about it, so he climbed up directly.

When he reached out to pick it up, his body froze there. On the branch of the same tree, a foot above him, a pair of eyes were staring at him closely.

The owner of the eye is again a creature that has never been seen before. Naturally, Li Ling began to use the image of creatures on the earth to judge the danger of the other party.

It squatted on a tree branch, had gray fur, and was shaped like a baboon, with a prominent mouth, sharp claws on its limbs, and sharp teeth on its jaw, and it looked quite fierce.

But physiognomy is hard to find an imaginary animal.

There was caution and warning in its menacing gaze. Apparently a creature that is smart enough! What's worse is that it also has a pair of fleshy wings on its back, featherless wings like bats.

Judging from the folds above, it must be a pair of fleshy wings with a wide wingspan, but Li Ling still felt that its limbs were too strong, maybe that pair of fleshy wings could only support it to glide for a short distance!

He remembered the gargoyle on the eaves of the Western Cathedral, a flying beast of speed and strength, no doubt.

Beads of sweat gradually seeped from his forehead. Li Ling suspected that he had been targeted by it for a long time. Otherwise, you won't make a little movement when you climb up.

He had to make a defense on the trunk of a large tree. Slowly, Li Ling put his right hand on the wooden stick on his shoulder, secretly wondering why he hadn't sharpened the end of the stick earlier.

A scream nearly tore his eardrums, and the beast grinned at him. It seemed that as soon as Li Ling pulled the weapon out of his back, it would immediately rush up.

"Stay calm!" Li Ling remembered Nayin's warning.

Resisting the impulse, he removed his hand from the stick on his shoulder, adjusting his posture while keeping an eye for movement above.

The beast stopped screaming, and sat motionless on the branch again.

Li Ling began to move down slowly, jumping less than a zhang from the ground, and rolled on the spot while landing on the ground, immediately taking a defensive stance.

Through the gaps in the branches and leaves, Li Ling saw the fierce beast kick its feet, leap into the air with the strength of its legs, and then spread its wings and glide towards the depths of the dense forest.

Li Ling wiped the sweat from his forehead, and made up his mind to find Ge Jin and them before dark, otherwise who knows what strange beasts they would encounter at night.

When the sun was about to set on the mountain, Li Ling, who was anxious, finally found many messy footprints and stretched out along a wide field of vision.

He hurried along the tracks.

After walking for about two hours, Li Ling found a large area of clearing that had been trampled on. Apparently everyone has rested here. There were some dried blood stains on the ground that caught Li Ling's attention.

"Could it be that someone is hurt?!" Li Ling's scalp tingled and guessed.

Fortunately, he looked around a little, and found a thick, gnawed skeleton and a few piles of campfire embers, so he relaxed a little and hurried on.
