Chapter 98: Ninety-Eight. In Search of the Masters Journey 19
"It's higher than I thought."
The two landed, and Gu Tang exclaimed. Under his feet was a thick layer of fallen leaves, he looked around, this forest is not only good but also very large, although he had this concept on the cliff before, now he went down to this forest to know what is called boundless.
"We need to take care of the wounds on our bodies first." Su Wanhuai took Gu Tang's hand and looked at it, "There is a kind of herb that can detoxify and stop bleeding that grows on the edge of the big tree all year round, you stay here first, and I'll go over to find it." ”
"What do you say, it doesn't make sense. We're all hurt, and it's not like I can't move, what are you letting me stay for? Let's go to the southwest, it's so big here, maybe we'll be separated when we are separated. ”
This forest is so big, if you go forward, you don't know when you will go, but on the other side of the cliff, even if they can climb it, it is not safe enough. Who knows if the proprietress will send someone to wait to arrest them, the more Gu Tang thinks about it, the more he feels that it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, Su Wanhuai knows martial arts, will the other party guess that they are not dead and come down the cliff to find them?
Su Wanhuai has always listened to Gu Tang, and after Gu Tang finished speaking, he didn't say anything else, and the two walked forward together.
The two of them didn't know much about the trees, they couldn't say what trees were around, the trees were densely foliage, and Gu Tang estimated that it was almost noon, because those trees blocked a lot of sunlight, and they hid in the shade of the trees, so they didn't faint from the sun.
What made them want to cry was something else, the woods were full of damp and rotting leaves, and there were many mosquitoes, and their clothes were torn several times, and they could not resist those mosquitoes at all, and the two of them were tortured so bitterly that their bodies were sore and itchy, and they stopped walking.
Su Wanhuai finally found the antidote herb they were looking for, and also found some grass that was said to be able to repel mosquitoes, and the two of them hurriedly smashed the herb and applied it to their bodies, and the sourness made Gu Tang grit his teeth, "It hurts, I'm damn!" ”
The green grass juice dripping into the wound was so painful that Gu Tang wanted to scold his mother, the wound was not big, but there were too many scratches, and they had to apply each other's backs to those places that they couldn't see. In order to prevent mosquitoes, they did not let go of every skin exposed to the air, and by the time they were almost ready, the two of them had successfully become little green men full of herbs.
"Bear with us, let's apply the herbs, and the mosquitoes won't come to bite us." Su Wanhuai helped Gu Tang apply another layer, and when he saw Gu Tang's expression, he comforted him.
"Okay, my face is green, they still want to sting, and I admit it." Gu Tang said to himself.
After applying those herbs, in addition to being unsightly, they were also useful, and without the poison of the mosquitoes, they were much more relaxed, and soon found the backpacks they had dropped, one on the ground, the other still hanging on the tree.
Gu Tang hurriedly ran over to pick up the one on the ground, and Su Wanhuai jumped on the big tree and took down the other. The one on the ground was Gu Tang's, Gu Tang poured out the contents and took a look, and found that the things inside him had almost fallen, and the mobile phone screen of the mobile phone had been broken.
"One good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear?" Gu Tang squatted on the ground and asked Su Wanhuai.
Su Wanhuai got down from the tree, opened his backpack, took out a bottle of water and handed it to Gu Tang. "Broken phone?"
Gu Tang took a sip of the water and returned it to Su Wanhuai, shook his head and said, "The good news is that the phone is not broken." ”
"The bad news?" Su Wanhuai also squatted down with him, looked at the broken mobile phone screen in surprise and asked,
"There's no signal here, and I can't even call for emergency help." Gu Tang wanted to shake the phone, but found that the screen couldn't withstand his toss, so he withdrew his hand.
The situation is not too bad, there are still some biscuits in the backpack, and the two of them ate a little, ready to get out of the woods first. In order to prevent the phone from running out of battery, Gu Tang first turned off his mobile phone, and then took the things that could still be used.
"Can we really find an exit if we go forward like this?" Gu Tang looked at Su Wanhuai's dyed green face, and laughed at himself thinking that if there were a few more people, they could make up seven little green men, and maybe they would be able to wait for a beautiful princess in a few days.
"The hexagram is like this, and the turning point is in the southwest."
"Su Wanhuai, you used to live in this kind of forest with your master?" Gu Tang couldn't stay idle, it was too boring to walk in the woods, there were trees everywhere, and there were only trees, he felt that he would suffocate himself if he didn't speak.
"We live in the mountains, and there are trees in the mountains, but they are not the same as such trees, there are ancient pines, peach trees, plum trees and cypress trees in the mountains, and they are not as humid as here, and the scenery is better." Su Wanhuai thought about it, he used to go around the mountains and hunt some game to eat, but here, there should be no rabbits and other animals.
"Isn't it much more interesting when you usually walk in the woods than you do now?" Gu Tang actually couldn't imagine the difference between the mountains and the woods.
"It's more interesting here." Su Wanhuai looked at Gu Tang and looked away again.
"Why? You've praised you all over the mountain, why is it still interesting here? Gu Tang couldn't help but be a little curious, Su Wanhuai actually thought this guy was interesting here, there was nothing here except a large group of mosquitoes comparable to starving ghosts, where was it interesting here?
"Probably...... Maybe it's a strange place. Su Wanhuai pondered for a moment, as if he had found a reason to say the past, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"How can strangeness be interesting? Are you bluffing me? Speaking of which, do you think this place is weird? ”
Gu Tang looked around, and the more he walked this way, the more he felt that something was wrong here, but he just couldn't say why.
"Well, it's too quiet." Su Wanhuai responded. Except for Gu Tang's voice and their footsteps, he could barely hear any other sounds. It's also weird that there are no birds in the woods.
"Besides, did you notice that it seems to be getting a lot darker?" Gu Tang pulled Su Wanhuai to stop together, he looked at the sky above his head, the sky exposed under the obscuration of branches and leaves, it was gray and gray at this time, and it was no longer as bright as when he looked at it in the morning.
It was only 11 o'clock when they squatted in front of them to eat the biscuits, and even if they walked for a long time, it was impossible to reach the time when it was dark, and besides, it was summer, and it was not spring with short days and long nights.
"There's weirdness here." As soon as Su Wanhuai finished speaking, a gust of wind blew from nowhere, instantly blowing Gu Tang into goosebumps.
The sky seemed to be getting darker faster, Gu Tang secretly said badly, if it rained at this time, they would turn from a little green man to a little green chicken.
