002 Dangerous in the forest
It is said that the Xiduo forest, deep and far away, the lush ancient trees cover the sun and the moon, and do not reach the people; the stream is difficult to fathom and shallow, and the stone is dangerous and the cliff is not visible.
The vast primeval forest is a fertile soil for all kinds of precious vegetation, and it is also a paradise for thousands of species of birds and beasts to hide, with countless resources and endless dangers.
Fortunately, there are ten people in this team, except for Niu Benben and Jiang Haoyu, the others are all experienced veterans from Lin, and they are very well prepared.
"Carelessness can't see it, you are weak and small, these rough men can't compare to you. ”
From Guiluo Airport to Ningpu Town for a night, because they were not familiar with the wrong way, a group of them went into the old forest for two days, and arrived at the ancient tribe ruins on the map, and they had to walk a long way.
The late summer night in the mountains is a little cool, but it is comfortable to sit by the fire.
Everyone who ate had dry food with them, so they cooked a pot of wild vegetable soup with only a little salt, so that it was fresh.
Chen Huai'an had a map in front of him, and several people were eating and discussing, trying to find a shortcut from it.
Walking along the original path is too circuitous, and you will walk more than ten kilometers of white roads.
Chen Huai'an stared at the map and asked uncertainly: "Why don't we cross the Lijiang River over the Beast Ridge?" ”
"Isn't that good?" Xinya objected, it didn't take more than half a day to walk from the original path, their purpose was to explore, and the time arranged was sufficient, so there was no need to take a shortcut.
And if the shortcut is too close to country M, walking the border may be regarded as a smuggler by other countries.
"There's nothing bad about it, there are many special presences on this road, we can also go and see it, and the waterfall in Lijiang is beautiful. ”
"Vote by show of hands. Chen Huaian glanced up, he was the captain, and he had to take care of the emotions of the players, which was undoubtedly the fairest.
The individual obeys the majority, Xinya doesn't say anything more, the team is a whole, and there are always differences between people, mutual understanding can better solve the problem.
"Hey, you're not happy?" Niu Benben saw that Xinya was in a bad mood and nudged it.
"Nope. "It's just that there is a sense of uneasiness in my heart, and I can't say anything, just like a big dark cloud when the sun is just right, and a bad person is in a bad mood.
The finches in the forest are very active, and the branches are full of their calls as soon as the sky is light.
The male compatriots helped the three female team members pack up their tents and set off.
It is difficult to walk in the direction of the Beast Ridge, it should be said that there is no road at all, the uneven stone forest, the vines are full of thorns, and poisonous snakes come out from time to time.
"Captain, are we in the wrong place?" there are marked paths on the map, but there is no road in this area, not even a place to stay.
The grass was waist-high, and I couldn't see my feet at all.
"If you don't go back, it doesn't matter if you're far away, safety is the most important thing. ”
"Don't worry, let's see if it's different from the map. "The deep mountains are inaccessible, and if there is a road, it will soon be covered by crazy grass and trees, and if you don't look carefully, it's normal to go astray.
Chen Huai'an took out the map and compared the terrain, several male team members gathered together, muttering for a while, but they didn't see any differences.
"Looking at the way they looked, they couldn't find a way, Xinya, do we have to go back again?"
Feng Xinya bit the half-ripe wild fruit she picked casually, carefully looked at the direction of the surrounding trees, shook her head and said, "You have to ask them." ”
It was all the result of a show of hands, and it didn't matter where she went, her skin was rough and the flesh was thick, and the plants and trees would automatically avoid her, but she had to suffer from the more delicate children in the ranks, whose faces were as tender as tofu and as smooth as milk, and which had just undergone a century of catastrophe, and was full of thorns and blood marks.
"Benben, you better take a look in the mirror first and deal with your face, otherwise I'm afraid no one will know you when you return to school. "She was originally stupid, but now she has become Huahua, and her nickname has to be changed to stupid!
Uh, think of the crazy picture of this book......
"Ah......h
"What's going on?" several male team members quickly came to Niu Ben's side.
"Niu Benben, where were you bitten by a snake?" Jiang Haoyu looked worriedly.
"You were bitten by a snake, crow's mouth! I was frightened, look at my face, you are all wrong. ”
I don't take a good road, but I drill into this place where there is no road, what kind of road does this take, Niu Benben has been complaining in his heart.
After the dark red blood stains dried, his face was hideous, and he was not at all as well-behaved and cute as usual.
If you don't go down this path, maybe this won't happen. A few people, you look at me, I look at you, who doesn't have red marks on their faces!
There is one exception!
"Xinya, how did you do it?" Niu Benben and Jiang Haoyu said in unison.
"I, I have feelings for flowers and trees, and they are reluctant to prick me. Xinya's hand rested on the grass, making them tremble with excitement.
Maybe the villagers are really not wrong to call her a monster, she has a strange power that is different from the ordinary, not only the power of the body itself, but also the consciousness of communicating with nature, she can hear the language unique to all living beings, but she is afraid that no one will believe her when she tells the truth, and will only take her as a joke.
She asked her grandfather, but he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, so he only kept it a secret and didn't make it public.
"Be careless, pass on some experience to me, or I'll ruin my face if I go on any longer. "You have to be careful to avoid all the thorns.
"I didn't really try to avoid it, but I blocked it with a stick. "To be honest, no one will believe it, you can only find a reason for them, as for what they will do, it is not for her to help. "Are you going to go on or back?"
"No diversion. We went the wrong way, and we just had to walk a mile back and we could walk through the ridge over there. Chen Huai'an put away the map and said to the crowd: "Let's go back a little bit and rest when we find a path." ”
In the eyes of people who don't often look at mountains, each one is the same, and it is possible to get lost in the deep forest at any time.
Xinya still hopes to go back, from the most primitive path, even if it is a waste of half a day.
Unfortunately, it still didn't work out.
When night falls, they have not found a camp with a water source, and they will fall asleep in extreme exhaustion with what little pot of water they have left.
Xinya got out of the tent and looked up at the stars, her heart was unsettled.
A white cobra climbed up its arm and hissed and spitted letters.
Xinya smiled slightly and flicked the snake's head, "You'd better not show up where there are humans, be careful that they take you as an experiment." ”
"Hiss ......"
"Yes, we were wrong and shouldn't have trespassed on your territory. ”
People can give this mountain the name of the Beast Ridge, and naturally it is impossible not to have a reason.
According to her ideology, there are no less than 50 species of poisonous snakes in the mountains alone, and there are many other poisons, such as poisonous spiders, such as centipedes, and if you are not careful, you may suffer.
"Hiss ......"
"Don't worry, we'll stay for one night, and I'll take them away tomorrow, please don't hurt them and your companions. ”
Promised that the white cobra did not linger any longer, twisting itself and sliding into the darkness.
Feng Xinya looked at a certain part of the mountain forest, and had the intuition of being watched, turned back to the tent, turned out the night light, and sat in the dark.
——
"Cunning, see how many people there are?" Jiang Chi lay on the ground, fiddling with the telescope in his hand.
Anding, codenamed Cunning Tiger, thirty-five years old, the strongest individual soldier in the Cheetah Brigade, ranked No. 1 sniper!
"Why don't you come and take a look?" An Ding's eyes did not leave the camp opposite, he did not change his night vision goggles, it was not in the middle of winter, he saw a vague woman through the light in the distance, but the white snake in her hand saw it very clearly, this is definitely a sun-like existence in the dark night.
"Bu Gu, is your girlfriend very afraid of molluscs?" Bu Gu, Jiang Chi's code name, is an old partner.
"Afraid? It's hard to say, it depends on whether the woman is bold or not. You know the cobras of country P, they are rampant on the streets, and I have never seen a woman in country P panic!"
Settle down and think about it, some people can be scared to call the police for help when they see a cockroach, and some people raise pythons, and even more poisonous snakes, isn't country P the best proof.
"You saw the woman on the other side, she just had a white mutant cobra wrapped around her hand. "This breed is rare, and its poison is more intense than that of ordinary cobras.
"So what!" Jiang Chi held up his binoculars and saw only the shadows of a few tents in the darkness.
"She may be the one we have to wait for!"
According to reliable sources, the drug dealer codenamed Cobra would trade drugs with a certain domestic gang boss in an ancient village, and they have been checking for a long time, but there has been no specific information about this person, and there is no way to know whether it is a man or a woman.
And the mutated cobra must be wild here, how can it be close to humans, and it is friendly, unless this woman has been here a lot and fed the snake.
"Are you sure?" Without orders from his superiors and no conclusive evidence, Jiang Chi did not dare to make a rash conclusion.
However, it is not easy for someone who dares to go to the West at such a time. After news reports on the instability of country M and the border, these are not insiders or smoke bombs thrown by the other party, in short, there are no innocent people.
"I'm not sure! But there must be innocent people who have been tricked in!"
This is not good news.
Pulling people who don't know anything in to cover up is tantamount to having double protection; having hostages in their hands makes it easier for them to act, but invisibly restrains them.
Jiang Chi doesn't like trouble the most, but he likes to come to the door if he is troublesome.
"Let's take a look, maybe it's just a bunch of adventurous travelers. "I don't believe this reason.
How can there be such a coincidence in the world, they are here to catch drug dealers, and a group of dumb spoilers have broken in.
He prefers to believe that this is a plan that the enemy has been planning for a long time.
"It seems that our task has more than doubled. Jiang Chi continued to observe the opposite side, and the people in the tent seemed to be asleep, without the slightest disturbance.
"Stop!"
If this is really a trick of the enemy, they must not only find out who the real enemy is, but also protect the hostages.
An Ding looked at Xinya's tent from the night vision goggles, lying on the ground motionless.
Xinya concentrated in the tent, through the transmission of plants and trees, and saw the peeping eyes in her consciousness, their mouths open and closed, unable to hear or see what they were saying, but she confirmed from their equipment that these people were on a mission.
She was stunned!
Intruding into the territory of the other party's surveillance meant that the area was potentially dangerous, and it was the reason why she refused to go in this direction.
And the other party seems to be eyeing himself, why?
Without turning on the lights, Xinya opened the tent and looked in the direction of Anding and Jiang Chi, with mixed feelings in her heart.
......
The morning light came, Feng Xinya slept hard all night, and her eyes were swollen when she got up.
"Careless, your eyes are like light bulbs, you haven't slept all night?" Niu Benben's slender fingers held the big black-framed glasses, ripped them off and put them on his face: "Hey, it's flat!"
and Xinya's classmates for three years, she didn't find out that this guy was not short-sighted, just what was he doing with flat glasses?
Pretending to be Sven, pretending to be well-behaved, pretending to be knowledgeable?
It's not a good friend's personality.
Xinya snatched it and wiped the lenses clean with her sleeve, "This is to protect your eyes." ”
Niu Ben has smooth short hair, and I have never heard of flat glasses that can protect my eyes.
The team soon set off for the trip.
Climb over the Beast Ridge, cross the Lijiang River, and walk west for half a day to reach the primitive ancient tribe they are looking for.
"This is the middle reaches of the Lijiang River, and if you go downstream, you will reach Pingli Mountain, which borders country M. Chen Huai'an pointed to the map and frowned, "We have to leave here as soon as possible and go west, so as not to encounter unnecessary trouble." ”
The Pinglishan smuggling case is active, and they are all unscrupulous people who use unscrupulous means for profit, and human life is worthless in their eyes, and it is better than a dog that comes to make money.
There are advantages and disadvantages for them to take shortcuts, just to save half a day's physical strength and have a close contact with smugglers, which is not cost-effective.
"Hurry up and don't drag time here, good scenery along the river, there is a time for everyone to see. Xinya urged a group of people to take pictures.
There were people lurking on both sides of the road, so why didn't they spot each other, but locked their eyes on them?
Are there people who are looking for on both sides?
It can't be her!
Xinya pulled Niu Benben and walked at the end, carefully looking at the eight people in front.
Jiang Haoyu is undoubtedly the most handsome of the men, and the others are very kind-looking, and there seems to be only interest in exploration in their eyes.
Xinya is deflated, her consciousness may see the characters in reality, but she can't hear people's hearts.
People's hearts are unpredictable!
A person with a plump face is not necessarily a good person, and a person with an abominable face is not a bad person.
She can't judge the companions of her peers in front of her by their faces.
Think about those actresses with beautiful faces, dressed brightly, and doing improper tax evasion in the name of charity, how can they be hateful.
Maybe only the sun can be black, and the people are chivalrous, righteous and cool.
"Xinya, how long will we get there. "In the past few days, Niu Benben has struggled to walk for a while.
"There is still half a day, if you insist, you can have a good rest in the afternoon. "The ignorant are unashamed, and her friend can sleep well when she is tired, but her heart is like a wolf in her heart, and her claws scratch her heart.
"Do you want to rest for ten minutes before leaving?" Jiang Haoyu saw that Niu Benben was sweating profusely, so he had to propose to Chen Huai'an.
Don't look at Niu Ben's boldness, but she is also a rich daughter raised by a pampered and noble lady, who can persist until now, and you can know that the family style is good by looking at its essence.
Chen Huai'an crossed his waist and looked around, looked at his watch again, and finally decided: "Rest in place for half an hour." ”
Niu Benben immediately found a clean place to sit down, "Come here carelessly." ”
Since Xinya crossed the Lijiang River, she felt a tingling pain in her feet, which did not affect her walking, so she didn't care. As soon as I sat down, the consciousness of pain became clear.
"Are you uncomfortable?" Jiang Haoyu sat down next to Niu Benben, and when he saw Feng Xinya's face turned pale, he asked worriedly.
"Probably because I was too tired from walking, and I didn't have a good rest at night. "There was an unprovoked pain in my foot, but I didn't feel it in an instant, maybe I really walked too far.
"There are uncomfortable things to speak up. Chen Huai'an handed the compressed jerky in his hand to Xinya, "Dr. Liu's medical skills are very good. ”
When recruiting team members, Chen Huai'an specially recruited a doctor in case of emergency.
"Thank you. "Thank you.
"The jerky tastes good, Xinya, you can taste it. "Niu Benben urgently needs to replenish energy, tear it open and bite it directly.
"Meow ......" The little white milk cat hung on the branch, and its small eyes looked at the dried meat in everyone's hands.
Xinya's back is cold, and danger arises spontaneously.
