Chapter 320: The Road Is Difficult

When I looked up, I was stunned.

There were more than a dozen corpses hanging on the trunk of the big tree in front of them, and those people looked like they were local, men, women, and children, all of them with dark faces, and some of them had dried up blood stains, and they looked like they had been dead for a long time.

"What's going on?" Lin Yue stepped forward and asked.

I remember that this place was very rarely inhabited, because of the remoteness and inaccessibility, there should be no inhabitants in this primeval forest, but where did these people come from now?

Kabu and the others came forward to check on them, and came back a moment later to tell us that those people had been poisoned and had no wounds on their bodies.

"That's weird, since you poisoned people, why do you have to hang them on trees, is it a demonstration?" I muttered.

Uncle Wang said that it shouldn't be a demonstration, maybe to prevent someone from entering the mountain, right? There are a lot of precious medicinal herbs in this primeval forest, and there must be people here to hunt for treasures, if they accidentally bump into Yun Letian's base, wouldn't it be troublesome to say it?

There is some truth in this statement, but I always feel that things are not so simple, with the ability of Cloud Gate, can't ordinary medicine pickers prevent it?

But I couldn't think of any other reason, so I had to say: "Forget it, no matter what, this is another blood debt owed by Yun Letian, let's hurry up and enter the mountain." ”

Kabu means that it is better to lay these people down and bury them, it is not a good thing to let them be in the wilderness like this, they have such a custom here, if they meet a dead person in the wilderness, if they can't find his relatives, they should bury them on the spot, which is also considered a good deed.

In fact, we are the same, it stands to reason that we should do this, but just now I was in a hurry to Yun Letian's base, thinking that I would deal with these corpses after I came back, and now that Kabu said it, let's do it together.

His brothers were good at climbing trees, and if they climbed to untie the knots, the corpses could be lowered.

But what I didn't expect was that when the first person climbed the tree and passed the male corpse, it suddenly opened its eyes, revealing sharp teeth in its mouth, struggling to bite him!

Fortunately, this young man was agile, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately turned sideways, went around the back of the big tree, and then quickly jumped down along the trunk!

"Zombies??" I asked, surprised.

Everyone could see that the male corpse hanging on the struggling roar was indeed a dead person, but it was now behaving like a zombie, and it was unthinkable that there would be such an accident.

"What now?" Everyone looked at me together.

And I looked at Kabu: "If you encounter such a situation here, how will you usually solve it?" ”

Kabu said that if there is a mutiny, the body is usually cremated.

I nodded, and said that in this case, let's follow my idea, let's go to the mountain first, and burn these corpses when we come back after the mission is completed, if we burn them now, the fire and smoke will attract the attention of others, and our whereabouts will be exposed.

He nodded in agreement, and led us further into the mountains.

As we walked, we suddenly heard a sound of water, which was very similar to a small stream, and when we took a few steps forward, we saw a clear stream flowing in the low lying of the ground.

Lin Yue was the happiest when he saw this, and hurriedly ran a few steps forward, saying that this water must be very cool, pure natural mineral water, and wanted to wash his hands and face as he spoke, but was stopped by Kabu.

"You can't drink the water in this savage mountain." Kabu said in a deep voice.

Lin Yue was puzzled: "Why?" ”

"Because it's poisonous, now you see that the water is clear, but the upstream of this water may have flowed from between the rotting leaves and the carcasses of animals, so you can't drink it, even if you are thirsty, you have to boil it before you can drink it." Kabu said.

Lin Yue suddenly shivered, and hurriedly moved away from the stream.

"Actually, it's easy to judge, just look at whether there are small fish and insects in the stream." Kabu explained to us with a smile.

It turns out that this is the case, and I really owe it to his guidance, otherwise we, the rookies who survive in the jungle, will definitely be recruited.

Everyone continued along the stream until noon, when they found a place to stop and rest.

"According to our progress in the morning, it is estimated that we will only be able to reach the vicinity of the target location tomorrow night." After resting, Kabu said to me.

I nodded, and said it doesn't matter, who made this place so big, whether the enemy is ready or not, anyway, we are already here, a war is inevitable, and when the time comes, just act when the opportunity comes.

Kab nodded, and went with his brothers to prepare lunch.

There is also a special need to make a fire for cooking in this jungle, because we are here to make a sneak attack, and we must not make open flames and thick smoke, so they made a smokeless stove, and boiled water with charcoal, and the green smoke produced was dispersed into several smoke exhaust holes, and when the water boiled, there was no obvious smoke coming out.

Now I am even more glad that I brought them out, Kabu and the others provided us with too much convenience, and also let us learn a lot of things.

After the break, we continued to move forward, as a veteran Uncle Wang told us about what happened in this savage mountain many years ago, when our expeditionary force had fought against the Japanese invaders here, that history has been sealed for many years, but from Uncle Wang's mouth, the tragic battle situation at that time was imprinted into everyone's hearts.

So when I was on the way, I was still thinking about this thing, but fortunately we are now in the Savage Mountain in winter, because it is said that when the expeditionary force came in in the summer, many people died in the face of poisonous snakes and mosquitoes after the rain.

Thinking so, they stopped again, and this time we were not confronted with any strange phenomenon, but with a swamp blocking the road ahead.

The large area of the ground was covered with black mud, with a little water on it, and it was still bubbling, and Kabu turned to us and said, "Don't come closer, everyone, these bubbles are miasma and poisonous." ”

I looked left and right and found it very difficult to get through the swamp, as there were thousands of peaks on both sides, and there were few paths to bypass.

"What now?" I ran out of ideas, and I didn't think that the route we had chosen would be blocked, and that it would take more time to go around it again.

Lin Yue suddenly said: "It would be nice if Dabao was here, at least he could camel us over in batches." ”

Dabao, this guy hasn't seen it for a while, maybe it's used to life in the wild, right? After all, it is a wild animal, and although it has some spirituality, there is no master-servant contract between me and it, and it is normal to return to nature.

Kab said that if we didn't want to make a detour, we could go up the cliff and follow the ridge until we had rounded the swamp before descending the mountain.

I looked at the cliff that was nearly 90 degrees and more than ten meters high, and said with some worry: "How can I go up here?" ”

As a result, Kabu smiled slightly, and said that it is enough to leave it to us, and everyone should wait below.

Then he walked to the bottom of the cliff alone, climbed up with his hands and feet, the flexible body was like a monkey, we were dumbfounded, even Uncle Wang said that his skills were even sharper than special forces.

Several other chief disciples who were watching below said with a smile, it was just a skill that people in the mountains often climbed the mountain and practiced, and practice makes perfect.

Kab quickly reached the top of the mountain, then took a rope from his bag around his waist and threw it down.

Qian Enhao walked over eagerly and said I'll be the first.

Of course, he didn't have the same skills as Kabu, but he quickly went up with the rope, and then he came out and said, "Come up, it's easy." ”

Lin Yue pursed his lips and said that it is easy for you, what should we girls do?

Lin Ruowei smiled and said That's you, I don't think there's anything embarrassing about this, look at me!

After saying that, she also pulled the rope lightly.

"It's over, like I'm the dumbest person in this!" Lin Yue said to me with a bitter face.

I smiled and said it's okay, you can try it first, if you really can't go up, let's think of other ways.

She had no choice but to go to the bottom of the cliff and pull the rope to test it, and Qian Enhao was still laughing on it: "If you hold the rope, Kabu and I will drag you up." ”

Lin Yue grimaced at him, and then gritted his teeth and took the first step, although his movements were a little stiff, and his body was shaking, but he also slowly climbed up, and there were the chief's disciples standing below, even if she fell, she would not be hurt.

After a lot of effort, she finally injured the top of the mountain, and then smiled at us who were still below with a relaxed face: "So it's so simple, you guys should come up quickly!" ”

Everyone climbed up one by one, because there was not much space on the top of the cliff, Qian Enhao and they had already begun to move forward, and the last one who came up was the chief's disciple, Kabu put away the rope and said to us: "Don't worry, everyone, let us lead the way in front, this mountain is steep, don't fall down accidentally." ”

Such an environment and terrain are not the time to be strong, so we nodded in agreement, and Kabu walked around the crowd to the front of the group, exploring and walking forward.

The ridge was very steep, and in many places it could only accommodate one person, and the stones under their feet did not seem to be very strong, so everyone had to be vigilant and follow the Kab very carefully.

After walking for about a kilometer, the swamp was no longer visible, and Kabu told us that we were ready to go down.

However, the descent is not easy, and although it is not the same cliff as when you come up, it is also a steep slope with strange rocks, and it is difficult to find a suitable foothold.

By the time we got back into the valley, the sun was about to set, and an afternoon had been wasted bypassing the swamp.

It was just that we had some arguments about camping at night, and according to Kab's idea, it was better to camp directly in the woods, but I wanted to find a cave.
