Chapter XXVII
For most of the lives that live in Bloodwillow Hill, the continuous rainy days make them unhappy.
The muddy and slippery ground is not very satisfying for both predators and predators, unless they are too hungry to reluctantly walk out of the warm nest.
The red-tailed brindle serpent was wrapped around the branches of a large tree like a withered vine, silent, it had smelled food for a long time, and now he had come and seemed to find no trace of it.
...... With a bang, it launched an attack on its prey, pounced on its prey, intending to end its prey's stupid life with its sharp fangs.
"I'm Cao Nima......" Chen Chao was unfortunately chosen as his prey by the red-tailed spotted frost snake, and at this time he was fighting with the poisonous snake that was rolling up on his body.
The frost snake was in a bad mood, and finally brought a fat sheep, but he was still wearing iron bumps, and his fangs were unfortunately stuck on the battle armor, and he couldn't walk if he wanted to, so he could only find a way to strangle the fat sheep to death first, but the effect was very bad.
"Hehe, it's just a one-star poisonous snake, so you need to make such a fuss!" A soldier in black armor wields a standard black sword to cut the frost snake in half.
"Dean, what nonsense, have you found a suitable campsite?" Chen Chao gasped and changed the topic, not wanting to dwell on such a humiliating aspect.
"On this rainy day, where to find a suitable place here! It's pretty much the same everywhere! Dean grabbed the swinging snake body and replied to Chen Chao behind him.
"Damn, you should find a bar in this kind of ghost weather, drink good wine, flirt with beautiful girls, what are you doing in this kind of damn place." Chen Chao was just frightened and depressed, and he was resentful in his heart.
"We call it a soldier, a federal sergeant, but it's just fucking cannon fodder in the hands of the powerful."
"If you are told to go east, you will have to die in the east, and if you are told to go west, you will have to die in the west. You're complaining here that there's an egg, and it's cool to stay there."
"Unless one day you have lost your dragon luck and become a big man, you can help me, a poor ghost, when the time comes." Dean pulled up Chen Chao, who was sitting on the ground, and teased loudly.
"you, you count on me, I still count on you, no matter how you look at it, you will be more promising than me!" Chen Chao patted Dean on the shoulder and replied.
"Let's go back, I guess we won't be able to find a suitable place for a while." Chen Chao obviously had no intention of continuing to look for a camp in the jungle.
"Okay"
The two of them rushed in the direction of the large army, one after the other.
In the muddy and damp dense forest, Yun Xiaotian mingled with the colorful mercenary team, walking at the front of the entire team, chopping vines and branches that blocked the march of the large army.
Yun Xiaotian waved the blue saber in his hand and slashed a green thorn vine in front of him like chopping melons and vegetables, laughing in his heart, it seems that the five gold crystal coins a day of the Federal Military Department are not so easy to earn.
Although they wore battle armor and kept out the rain, the muddy roads and dull atmosphere made the whole team look a little tired, and the march along the way seemed aimless.
Under the gloomy sky, surrounded by the same gray-green, such an environment is even more to face the threat of the Zerg, for these recruits who have never faced a real war, it has to be said to be a kind of physical and mental torture.
Yun Xiaotian looked at Chen Chao, who was searching for the camp from the front, and sighed with some anticipation, and finally stopped to rest.
Even though he has done a lot of wilderness survival training since he was a child, Yun Xiaotian still can't help but feel a little tired.
Yun Xiaotian stopped the blue long sword in his hand, looked at the swarthy team behind him, and the road he walked behind, and subconsciously wanted to wipe his face, only to find that he was wearing battle armor, and he could only touch the armor on his head, patted it twice, and couldn't help laughing.
For Yun Xiaotian, this situation is completely beyond imagination, not long ago he was a vegetable leader on the Chuluo, and he followed Lin Hu to Xingdu by mistake, planning to find a school to study, but he didn't expect that now he was mixed in a search for the Zerg army.
Not far away, Ouyang Banxia followed Hai Honeysuckle's side and was discussing with Commander-in-Chief Cao Dao and others about choosing it as a temporary camp.
In the Blood Willow Hill, where alien beasts are rampant with all kinds of fast-growing plants, the topography in the depths of the jungle is too easy to change, even the river wilderness that was once marked on the map may turn into a dry valley after ten days and half a month.
In the end, Cao Dao decided to follow Ouyang Banxia's suggestion, find a vacant land and directly cut down the trees, burn the ground, and build a temporary camp.
The team that received the order found a suitable vacant land and got busy under Cao Dao's order, which was not a simple project.
Simple sheltered houses, simple fenced guards, but fortunately, there were many people, and with a clear division of labor, the camp was built quickly, but the camp was still unfinished before dark.
Under the fiery bonfire, Haishan was weak, and like Yun Xiaotian, he was transporting wood to the city guards who were building fence guards.
"Unlucky bear child, the hair hasn't grown yet, how can you run here to find guilt, haha" Chen Chao took the hardwood handed over by Haishan, and patted Haishan's head with his other hand.
Obviously, Chen Chao likes to see Haishan's depressed but helpless expression, and he finds the only pleasure here.
Haishan was poked by Chen Chao in the pain point in his heart, and waved Chen Chao away, "It's about your, Lao Tzu likes it"
"It's good to like it, but how can I see someone who seems to be very unhappy, it can't be duplicity, right?" Chen Chao didn't care, and said while holding the wood in his hand.
"It's your business!" Haishan walked away without looking back, and didn't want to deal with Chen Chao who was proud on the side.
I was so hungry, Haishan covered his stomach and muttered, "When is the time to eat, I'm almost hungry", and I was sad and angry that there should be no teenage child in this world who was more unlucky than himself and was sold by his own sister.
In the heavy rain, everyone was busy.
Hai Honeysuckle and Cao Dao, plus the lucky Ouyang Banxia and other officers, were drinking hot soup in the wooden house that had been built at this time, munching on two mouthfuls of barbecue from time to time, and discussing the next various military arrangements with a serious face.
Unlike the ordinary soldiers who were starving in the wind and rain outside the wooden house, they carried out mental work and exhausted energy, and of course, they had to eat and drink well to have strength.
The busy barracks were at odds with the quiet jungle around them, although there were curious beasts and birds that were secretly looking at the strange area.
Out of fear of the unknown, and uncertainty about its association with possible food, they are less interested in this place, more skeptical and afraid.
Such an anomalous phenomenon is a beacon for the cunning Zerg, and it is obviously not a wise move to set up camp here.
No one can know what will happen in the next moment, and the transition between prey and hunter is always instantaneous.
Of course, the one who fell and did not move, and the one who was roasted by the flames, was the prey.
And the one who eats the food is the hunter, this is a simple truth that has never changed.
