When the sun was setting, Yechen was hiding in a big tree, nibbling on a hard compressed biscuit, and from time to time she needed to take a sip of water to moisten her throat, otherwise she really couldn't swallow it.

These compressed cookies are her booty.

Breaking through the slow-flowing river, Yechen really encountered the mercenaries who rounded him up.

They weren't the same mercenary squad they used to be, they were stealthy, they were quick, and they didn't like to use guns - the movement of guns was too big, and in a complex woodland, a gunshot could be heard for miles away, and it was easy for the other party to detect it, so they used to use crossbows. With the support of high-end materials, the lethality of the crossbow at medium and close range is not less than that of firearms, and it can be fired in bursts, but the unit price is too high. An automatic rifle only costs more than a hundred pounds, but the material cost of a crossbow machine in the hands of these bush mercenaries is tens of thousands, and a well-crafted crossbow arrow also costs fifty or sixty pounds, that is, the umbrella mercenary association, so that every bush mercenary can be equipped with a crossbow machine and hundreds of crossbow arrows.

The jungle mercenaries who rounded up Yechen were in a team of ten, and they carefully searched and hunted according to the planned route, and they would definitely not miss the escaped anomaly. As a result, Yechen, who was about to break through, ran headlong into this ten-person squad.

These jungle mercenaries don't like the loud sound of guns, and would rather use crossbow arrows, and Yechen doesn't dare to use robbers, a gunshot will attract all the surrounding jungle mercenaries, in that case, they will definitely die.

So when he met this jungle mercenary team, Yechen thought about bullying him and fighting with one of the opponents with the dagger in his hand, as long as the other party retreated slightly, he could find a chance to run out. Now the encirclement formed by these jungle mercenaries is still very dispersed, as long as they break through, they will be considered successful.

Who would have thought that she had just jumped down from the tree, and those well-trained mercenaries didn't say a word, or even make eye contact, and invariably picked up the crossbow machine in their hands and fired five arrows at Yechen in a row.

In an instant, fifty crossbow arrows flew towards Yechen. Fortunately, the other party also made a hasty shot and did not aim accurately, most of the crossbow arrows were missed, but there were still three crossbow arrows, which hit Yechen's left shoulder, abdomen and right leg, which can be called a serious injury.

Luckily, Yechen had been very careful along the way, and after being injured, she jumped directly into the river.

For ordinary people, and even for ordinary practitioners, after being so seriously injured, jumping into the river is looking for death, but Yechen has the protection of cold water, which can somewhat reduce the damage caused by some river water to the wound. In fact, if it weren't for speed and concealment, she'd rather dive all the way to break through.

Taking advantage of the seclusion of the river, Yechen tangled with the jungle mercenary team for a while, killed the two of them, and dragged the bodies into the river, scavenged some loot from it, and then continued to flee for his life.

After nibbling on the compressed biscuit, Yechen looked up at the sky, the afterglow of the sun dissipated, and when night fell, she could finally live in peace for a while.

The night in the primeval jungle is dangerous, and this danger is as dangerous as it is for the Jungle mercenaries.

The large predators who forage for food at night can say that after all, they have weapons forged by modern technology, and it is not a problem to deal with some tigers and brown bears, but there is no particularly good way to deal with those nocturnal and highly poisonous insects. Many of those poisonous insects are cold-blooded animals, and they are very small and fast, and they can't catch their movements by night vision devices. Ordinary protective clothing is not at all, it can be pierced by the mouthparts of poisonous insects, it is too bulky and affects the activity in the jungle, at night, it is better to find a suitable place to camp, light a fire around it, and stick to the camp.

In comparison, Yechen didn't care much about those poisonous insects, even if the poisonous insects in this world were overbearing. Her talent is to control the power of death, as long as the breath of death is spread a little, those sensitive mosquitoes and poisonous snakes will automatically avoid it under the drive of biological instinct. Since there was only one person, she was worried about the big predators, so Yechen slept in the tree all the time at night.

The stars and the moon turned, and in the middle of the night, in the sound of insects, Yechen smashed his mouth, turned over, and accidentally fell off the branch.

At the moment when he was about to land, Yechen kicked the trunk of the tree, and the whole person flew out, and the dagger he was holding behind flashed a cold light in the moonlight.

With a crisp sound of gold and iron clashing, Ye Chen took a few steps back in embarrassment and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Five or six meters away from Yechen, there stood a thin man, about thirty years old, with a white shirt, black trousers, and black leather shoes on his feet.

"Like you, I'm a trialist on this mission." "It's not that simple, we can't do it on our own, we need to work together." ”

Yechen hesitated a little and said, "Okay." ”

"Then come with me, we have a party tonight." The emaciated man spoke, turned and left.

Yechen was also decisive and followed.

On the way to this strange party, Yechen got a lot of news from the emaciated man.

Her previous guess was right, she was not the only one who carried out this trial mission, but there were as many as eighteen people, among these eighteen people, only one "stupid to the extreme" guy did not find an abnormality on the transportation road, and was really sent to the base camp, and now I don't know if I live or die, and there are two "waste snacks", I didn't see through the bait spilled by the base camp for the first time, and honestly ate it, but I was surrounded by jungle mercenaries, I don't know if I was alive or dead, and I was transported back to the base camp anyway.

These two words are the original words of the emaciated man, Yechen is still a little embarrassed to say it, although she is not "stupid", but she almost belongs to the "waste dim sum", at first she really did not notice the bait sprinkled by the base camp, but later woke up in time, with some luck and the help of cold water, barely broke through and escaped.

In this way, except for the three testers who were sent to the base camp as research materials, among the remaining fifteen people, she belonged to the tail of the crane.

Yechen followed the emaciated man to run for more than fifty miles in the night, and the two came to a cave. The emaciated man signaled, pulled open the vines that covered the entrance of the cave, and walked in, and Yechen immediately followed.

The scale of this gathering is quite large. According to the emaciated man, there were only fifteen surviving trialists left, and after entering, Yechen counted twelve people sitting or standing in this small cave, including himself.

Being able to gather so many people under the pursuit of many jungle mercenaries was already very powerful in Yechen's opinion, but the emaciated man didn't seem to be satisfied, he frowned slightly, and said, "Why are there only these few people, and the remaining three?" ”

A fire was lit in the middle of the cave, and a fat man in a vest and big pants sat cross-legged next to him, fiddling with a wooden stick in his hand. Hearing the emaciated man ask, the fat man looked up and said, "One of them can't find anyone, I don't know if it's dead or alive, and two of them don't want to come, and we can't help it, so we can't ask for it, right?" After speaking, the fat man glanced at Yechen, how could this woman be wet, and this moisture didn't seem to be contaminated by rain and dew, but seeped out of her body, it was really strange.

Although he was puzzled, the fat man didn't say anything, there are countless practitioners in the seventh space, and they have all kinds of talents, and this woman's talent should be related to water - more precisely, it is related to water ghosts. On her, the fat man felt a cold aura, which was not like a living person.

But it had nothing to do with him, and the fat man fiddled the bonfire again, making it burn a little brighter, and said, "Now that the people have arrived, let's do it!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the fat man held a wooden stick and stabbed at a trialist next to him, obviously it was just a firewood stick that he picked up, but it burst out with a powerful sword qi, dazzling. It seems that this fat man is a Xianxia trialist.

At the same time as the fat man made his move, the emaciated man who came over with Yechen and a short figure standing in the shadow of the corner of the cave did it at the same time. For a while, the screams in the cave continued.

The emaciated man's first target was Yechen, the two were the last to enter the cave, the distance was very close, the emaciated man turned around, his left hand made a claw, accompanied by the sound of a terrible ghost crying, piercing Yechen's heart.

"You...... This is ......" Halfway through speaking, the surprised expression on Yechen's face turned into doubt, and even with a hint of a little girl's naughtiness, "What are you doing?" ”

The emaciated man just wanted to pinch the heart of the woman in front of him, but he saw her body slowly weaken and finally disappear.
