The subconscious instincts popped up again, and I vaguely felt that the meaning of their actions was not only to disturb, but also to other purposes, but I had no idea what the purpose was. At this time, everyone is already nervous, and I can't use my own random speculation anymore, so I can only keep it in my heart and always pay attention to the abnormalities on the top of my head.

Gradually, I noticed the clues, and it seemed to ...... We're being driven away by birds overhead of an undetermined kind! They move regularly, and every few minutes there is the sound of wings fluttering in the order of left and then right, and people instinctively avoid walking according to the direction of the sound, which is why we are walking a path guided by a flock of birds.

When I realized this, I didn't think much about it and shouted, "Stop, don't go!" "Sheng Shiyao, Zhou Tong, and Liuzi naturally stopped first, and they all turned their heads to look at me. And the rest of the people also stopped after Zhuang Yu stopped and turned around, and all eyes were fixed on me. After thinking about it, he asked Uba head-on: "Uba, is the route you originally led the way now?" ”

Uba's face was cold, and he looked at me with a gloomy look, "What do you want to say?" I was not afraid of him, so I walked to the side and broke a branch, drew a few lines on the ground, and then pointed to one of the dots and said, "Suppose this is the entrance to the jungle where we entered, and this is the route we should have taken, but we are now taking this crooked line, don't you think there is anything wrong?" ”

"You mean I'm leading everyone down the wrong path?" Uba spoke in a gloomy voice.

Sheng Shiyao stepped up to me and scolded with a heavy face: "Stupid! She said so clearly and still didn't understand? It means that we have been misled into taking a route that is not the original, and where the source of the misdirection is, use our brains to think about it. I exhaled a long breath, after all, he and I had a tacit understanding, and as soon as the principle was explained, even if the meaning was vague, he immediately understood.

Zhuang Yu looked up, and suddenly fired a shot into the air, only to hear a terrible scream, something fell straight down, everyone got out of the way, and with a bang, a black bird fell into the clearing. At a glance, I saw that there was a hole in the bird's body, which was shot by Zhuang Yu, and it was not dead yet, trembling while screaming with a hoarse wail, and it didn't take long for it to stop moving.

Zhou Tong took the lead in going up and stabbing the bird with the butt of the gun, and asked, "This is the horned eagle?" It's not very big. Uba said gloomily, "No, the bird we saw last night was three times larger than this, and although we could not see the color of the bird's feathers at night, it was certainly not this pure black." ”

I took a step forward, looked at the top of the bird's head, and nodded, "Indeed, you can see that its head does not have a black crest, but its wings are larger, so the fluttering sound is also sound." Zhou Tong scratched his head and asked puzzledly: "That's not a horned eagle, why is this black bird coming to harass us?" And listening to the movement, there are only a lot of them. He looked up, and found that after the blackbird had been shot down, the rest of the blackbirds had gone into hiding, and had stopped moving for the time being.

Zhou Tong's question, I also wondered, if it was last night's horned eagle, it would be round, but now it is replaced by this kind of black bird that is not big or small, why do you want to follow us all the time? Suddenly, Jian Ning whispered: "Could this be the case: the horned eagle is like the fierce beast tiger and lion in the land forest, and the beasts worship it, and they are the king among the birds in the air, and even with their ferocity, the animals in the whole forest respect them, and then these black birds deliberately drive us down this road, in order to send us to the horned eagle's nest." ”

Worship by the beasts! I suddenly remembered the bats in the Soul City, the countless mutated land animals were originally fierce and abnormal, but they all bowed down to the bat, this is only the larger bat, and the Bat King has not appeared. I felt that this forest was strange, and we didn't encounter a single beast along the way, not even small hares and boars. Could it be that this forest is really occupied by horned eagles and called the king, and they haunt each other and avoid each other? Still is...... Do you want history to repeat itself, gather all the beasts in one place, and worship the horned eagles?

I don't know who asked, so what now? There was silence, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was depressing. Sheng Shiyao's cold voice cut through the silence: "Two plans, one is to turn around immediately and leave this forest." ”

"Impossible!" Without waiting for Sheng Shiyao to finish speaking, Zhuang Yu interrupted in a deep voice, and after his eyes turned around, he fixed his eyes on him, "Let's just talk about the second plan." Sheng Shiyao was not annoyed, and looked at Wuba expressionlessly, "Let him plug his ears and lead the way." ”

A word woke up the dreamer, since this group of blackbirds relied on sound to disturb people's minds, so if the sound was eliminated, wouldn't it be impossible to influence people's judgment? So for the rest of the journey, Ubadu plugged his ears with a plug to lead the way, and he couldn't hear the movement above his head, but what we could hear was very surprised, and we looked up from time to time.

I found that the birds no longer moved as regularly as before, but there was a commotion, and there was a tumult. Like headless flies, they scurry between the leaves, and some even fall down the trees and are visible to us. Originally, someone wanted to shoot and kill, but was stopped by Zhuang Yu, this blackbird does not attack people, but there are many groups, it is difficult to ensure that after the alarm, the group rises up and attacks people, so when it is not necessary, try not to provoke them.

After seeing the ferocity of the horned eagle last night, we were all a little apprehensive about this flying bird. After nearly an hour of commotion, the blackbirds seemed to gradually disperse, and the sound of fluttering and flying appeared one after another, and so on for nearly half an hour or so, until finally there was no more movement overhead, and we came to a sparsely wooded area. The sunlight shone in through the cracks in the trees, driving away the cold air in the mountains and forests. Smelling the sound of water flowing ahead, everyone walked a little way and saw a clear stream, the water was gurgling.

Finally, Zhuang Yu ordered a rest, and as soon as everyone's tense nerves were relaxed, they all walked straight to the stream, picked up the water and washed their faces to sweep away the depression. Some people also drank a few sips and said that the water was very sweet, and a natural reaction in their minds was an advertising slogan: Nongfu Spring is a little sweet. Isn't the water in the deep mountains and old forests purer than the farmer's spring?

It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and my stomach was very empty, so I opened a bag of biscuits and put them in my mouth to chew, feeling that it was difficult to swallow. It's not that I'm picky, it's that although most of the cold symptoms are gone, I still don't have an appetite. But this kind of long trek is really exhausting, and it is definitely not possible without food supplements, so I have to swallow reluctantly, reach out and grab the water bottle next to it, and find that the scratch is empty. Turning his head sideways, he found that Sheng Shiyao had taken the water bottle I had just drunk in his hand and was pouring a sip.

I looked left and right, and when no one was paying attention to us, I leaned in very quietly and said, "Don't you have water?" Why do you drink mine? He glanced at me, "This bottle is mine, and yours just put it in your bag." I immediately went to rummage through my baggage, and sure enough, I found the bottle at the mouth of the bag with the cap unscrewed and the water that I had drunk twice, and I immediately didn't dare to look up, embarrassed.

Just as I was making an ostrich, my big hand reached over and took the bottle of water directly, and then stuffed the small half bottle of water that he had drunk himself into my hand, and when I looked up in shock, he whispered: "After that, the water will be rare and cannot be wasted, so let's drink a bottle together." I looked down at the bottle in my hand, still hesitating to say something, my ears suddenly warmed, his lips were close, and a thin and cool voice penetrated my eardrums: "Xiaoxiao, do you mind my saliva?" ”

"Don't mind!" I immediately said, joke, I've been with this person for so long, if I can't hear the unhappiness in his voice, then I will live in vain. But I only cared about showing loyalty, and forgot to lower my voice, and in the quiet forest, my voice came out brightly, and then the eyes of the brush looked at me, and the expression on my face froze. In the afterglow, Sheng Shiyao sat back indifferently, completely ignoring the gaze of others. I smiled bitterly, asking myself if my skills were not as profound as his, I couldn't do it, and my face didn't change.

This is a warm episode in the tense atmosphere, if it is placed in normal times, it will definitely be teased by Zhou Tong, and this time, Zhou Tong just looked back at us, and did not react much. I can't help but feel strange, he and his sixth son followed Sheng Shiyao to birth and death many times, and when the situation was worse than this before, they were still laughing and scolding there, which also showed their true temperament, why are they so silent at this time? When everyone was about to leave, I found out that Zhou Tong and Liuzi were different.

When the two of them got up, their faces were visibly painful, and although they were fleeting, they were still caught by me. Before I could ask a question, I suddenly heard an exclamation from the side: "Ah! Come and see Zheng Dong, he doesn't seem to be able to do it. Turning his eyes, he realized that Zheng Dong in that mouth was the person who was bitten on the back of the neck by the horned eagle before, originally he was not much after taking the serum and anti-element, he just needed to walk on his own, but at this time he was lying on the ground, his eyes were closed, he fainted again, and his whole face was red.

The medical experts in the team immediately leaned over to examine him, opened his eyelids and mouth, probed his heart, and finally turned him over, and could not help but be surprised, only to see that the place that was originally just a small hole was now not only enlarged, but also seemed to have suppurated and rotted. I have checked it before, and the wound is not poisonous, the horned eagle is just a kind of eagle, it is not a poisonous snake or the like, and it is reasonable to have poison on the mouth. How did it come to this?

Suddenly thinking of something, I took a step forward to look at the faces of Zhou Tong and Liuzi, and sure enough, I saw that the two of them were redder than usual, grabbed Zhou Tong's arm, and asked urgently: "Do you also feel strange?" What's wrong? ”

Zhou Tongqiang pretended to be fine, "Little sister, your brother is fine, he is not uncomfortable." But in the next moment, the clothes on his back were lifted from behind by Sheng Shiyao, and I looked over and gasped. When Zhou Tong was at the bottom of the sea, he was burned by the heat wave on his legs and back, leaving scars, which were almost good, but at this time, those injuries were all bulging, and there was yellow water rolling down. Tearing open the leg of Liuzi's trousers, the position of his broken kneecap was swollen unsightly, and the skin was cracked.
