Chapter 21: I Suggest Sleeping

Zheng Nannan pulled back the rope and carefully inspected the end of the rope, but there were no expected traces of cutting and tearing, and the knot seemed to fall off naturally.

Hu Qi sniffed, a little more jealous of the black fog that shrouded the rope bridge.

If there were any monsters on the rope bridge, or if there was an ambush in the Dome Fishery, there would be at least a way to deal with it. Whether it's a hard bayonet or a red bayonet, or a way home with his tail between his legs, at least he can make a decision by assessing the danger.

But now everyone's eyes are black, and the two pathfinders are lost when they enter the black fog, and this unknown fear makes the joint convoy not advance or retreat, and it is very uncomfortable to be caught in the middle.

"What do you see again?" Hu Qi approached Zheng Nannan's side, saw him staring at the rope for a long time, and said suspiciously: "Have eyebrows?" ”

"Nope." Zheng Nannan glanced at him, and said angrily: "Aren't you all earth snakes?" Ask me if it's interesting to be an outsider? ”

Hu Qi was stunned, and said in a sullen voice: "Why are you so small-bellied, and you are still angry for me betraying you?" ”

"Fuck off." Zheng Nannan took a sip, raised the rope and said: "Look at it yourself, there are no traces of artificial separation, the knot is loose naturally, if he doesn't untie it himself, then I can't think of other possibilities." ”

"Then he knows that the black fog is unpredictable, why should he unravel it?" Hu asked after asking.

"You ask me, who do I ask?" Zheng Nannan shook his head, but he couldn't think of a reason.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Laili paced over with a cigarette in her mouth and whispered, "Then he untied the rope, did he want to convey other information?" ”

"For example?" Hu asked rhetorically.

"For example, the black fog is not as dangerous as we think, maybe it is not a threat?" Laili speculated from a different angle: "But after he went in, he found that he didn't return the same way, so he could only pass the message in this way?" ”

Zheng Nannan and Hu Qi glanced at each other, and the looks in each other's eyes obviously did not agree with Laili.

"There's no need." Zheng Nannan vetoed Laili's speculation, and said, "The two of them must be in trouble." ”

"Why are you so sure?" Laili flicked the cigarette ash, seemed to have something to say, and threw the question back: "We've just arrived at the starting point, can't we go home?" ”

Zheng Nannan didn't make much meaningless arguments, picked up the rope and walked onto the rope bridge, and stopped when Tang Garlic and Shu Onion exclaimed step by step towards the black mist, and stopped when they were three or five meters away.

Hu Qiu's eyes jumped, for fear that this kid's mind would rush in, and he was relieved to see him stop.

Shaman timidly approached Hu Qi and whispered, "What is he doing?" ”

"Observe." Laili spit out two words lightly, lit another cigarette like a big smoker, and stared at Zheng Nannan's every move through the smoke.

The crew of the Deep Blue Hospital and Laili Convoy held their breath, waiting for the silent young man to show them a clear way.

The sky grew darker, the starlight vanished, the white moon disappeared into the clouds, and the whole canyon fell into a suffocating silence.

Zheng Nannan slowly squatted down, tied a simple noose with the rope in his hand, and then threw it towards the black mist.

When one end of the rope flew into the black mist, Zheng Nannan noticed that the fog had changed, like a huge lung, squeezing out a part of the exhaust gas, and inhaling a large breath of fresh air.

Breathe in and release, and then calm down, the enveloping area has hardly changed, and there is no interest in Zheng Nannan, who is squatting a few meters away.

Zheng Nannan actually wanted to walk in and feel it, but his keen perception of danger told him that he must not do this.

A few minutes later, Zheng Nannan got up, returned to the mouth of the canyon the same way, and said to everyone: "I have a suggestion. ”

All the people came to their senses, holding their breath and waiting for the order.

"Set up camp on the spot, sleep first, and wait until daytime."

“……”

Hu forced to twitch with joy, and the little nurse duo was also secretly funny, these people knew a little about Zheng Nannan, and knew the delicacy under his silent appearance, so they were more accepting of this seemingly inconsequential words and deeds.

But the rest of the Deep Blue Hospital and Laili and the others were not so obedient.

Laili frowned slightly, her good-looking diamond-shaped red lips pursed, and she hesitated: "You're not joking, are you?" ”

"Or else? Do you have a better way? Zheng Nannan looked strange and asked rhetorically: "You always have no opinion on pursuing advantages and avoiding harm, right?" The mortality rate is high at night, listen to me. ”

"No, my people are in there." Riley is colorful.

Zheng Nannan spread his hands and said, "Then you can go in by yourself, I won't continue to move forward before dawn." ”

"What if it's still the case after dawn?" Laili didn't believe in evil, and couldn't help asking, "Do you know anything?" ”

Zheng Nannan was a little irritated by her, frowned and thought about it, and said: "It's not wise to move forward without a clue, I don't know what's going on with this black fog, but I have a very bad feeling." ”

"You said that when we left." Hu Qiu suddenly interjected, and said strangely: "Is it just a feeling?" ”

Zheng Nannan nodded firmly, and seeing that Laili was still not giving up, he had to pull her and Hu Jiao aside, and said in a low voice: "Are you two really stupid or pretending to be stupid?" ”

"What do you mean?" The two of them looked confused.

Zheng Nannan's eyebrows furrowed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Beehive! Isn't this the hive you're looking for? ”

Laili and Hu Qi were startled, and looked at the black mist together, ignorance written on the left side and dazedness on the right.

Zheng Nannan slapped his head, hating iron and steel: "This black fog is obviously not a normal natural phenomenon, where this unnatural phenomenon can appear, except for the beehive, what else do you tell me?" ”

"But, don't most of the hives only exist in underground cavities?" Hu Qiu's eyes widened, and he had some difficulty understanding Zheng Nannan's words, he had been to a beehive, and he still remembered the geomorphological phenomena there.

Riley narrowed her eyes, and stopped talking.

Zheng Nannan was completely speechless, and in the case of unequal information, this kind of communication was meaningless.

He had been to more than one or two hives, and he knew a lot about them, but he had never heard of a hive or a geomorphological standard.

The internal documents provided to him by Meng Chang show that in today's world, as long as there are supernatural landforms and things, they can be referred to as beehives, and beehives are just a pronoun, not a specific landform reference.

Zheng Nannan originally wanted to give the two of them a literacy, but he opened his mouth and swallowed the words back, he had already caused a lot of trouble because of the mention of the hive and the roundabout, if he showed his understanding of the hive again, he was afraid that these dog skin plasters would not be able to get rid of it.

Laili was silent for a long time, and Zheng Nannan's words touched her a lot, if the black mist in front of her was the so-called beehive...... That maybe going in is in line with the original intention of the journey. The destination is just around the corner, what is it to avoid it, the danger and strangeness of the hive are famous, this kind of opportunity is even more difficult to find, you may encounter accidents when you go in, but you may not be able to gain a lot?

"Let's go, let's go in."

In the end, Riley still couldn't resist the temptation of the hive, mobilized the rest of the convoy, packed up their equipment, and connected them one by one with long ropes, with a tragic rush to the execution ground, firmly and slowly walked into the black fog that seemed to never disperse.

Zheng Nannan did not dissuade, he said everything that should be said, he never interfered in personal decisions, life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, there is no need to obstruct other people's persistence and demands.

The dark blue hospital has no leader, and there is no understanding of the hive, some people propose to go in together, there is a lot of strength, and more people choose to wait and see after seeing the experience of the two dog-headed men, after all, there is only one small life, and it is better to be cautious.

"Lao Hu, aren't you also interested in the hive?" Zheng Nannan set up a tent while joking nonsense, and said with a smile: "Why don't you go in and have a look?" ”

Hu Qiu knew that he was deliberately teasing himself, and he was not angry, so he laughed and said: "There are many things that Hu Ye is interested in, and some things can only be viewed from a distance, not blasphemed." ”

Tang Garlic smiled when he heard this: "Yo, I don't see it, Brother Hu is still an inner show." ”

"That is, Hu Ye is rich inside, do you want to take a deeper look." Without saying a word, Hu Qiu's true nature was revealed, and the topic was dragged to the lower half of his body.

Tang Garlic and Shu Onion saw that he had a good relationship with Zheng Nannan, and they were also happy to quarrel with him, which invisibly diluted the strange atmosphere in the valley.

When the remaining troops set up their tents, they looked at the rope bridge, which was already empty.

Laili's team went silently, and there was no movement in the black fog, like a door isolated from the world, the people outside the door watched the excitement, and the people inside the door peeped into the doorway.

As for whether this door is evil or auspicious, I'm afraid only Laili herself knows.

It was late at night, after a long journey, Zheng Nannan was also physically and mentally tired, and wanted to sleep peacefully, but unexpectedly, the basket of nonsense squeezed in again, and brought Shaman and the little nurse duo into the tent.

"What?" Zheng Nannan looked vigilant, pointed at Hu Qi and Sha Man, and said to the two little nurses: "You two are so careful, these two goods are leading the way, beware of selling us." ”

Hu is thick-skinned, haha laughed, Quan didn't hear it, but Shaman was poked in the heart again, looking embarrassed, not sitting, not standing.

"Boss, your heart is so big, you can sleep here." Shu Onion admired from the bottom of her heart, although she didn't know about the beehive, but dozens of meters away was shrouded in the black fog that devoured people invisibly, and the psychological pressure was still a little bit.

Zheng Nannan saw that there was no hope of going to bed early, so he just sat up and comforted: "Don't think too much, it's a blessing or a curse, and the gloomy clouds can't solve the problem." ”

"So what the hell are we going to do?" Tang Garlic, the girl, was clever and lowered her voice and said, "Originally, boss, didn't you just want to cause trouble?" Now that Sister Hong is missing, and the people in the hoarse manor have also withdrawn, we have no threat. Boss, if you don't want to wade into troubled waters, we can set off and head back to Raw Meat Town, and maybe you'll be able to make it to the game. ”

"It's still my little sweet garlic that is smart." Zheng Nannan threw away an appreciative look and said with a smile: "So, I said that you still have something to ponder." I won't stop anyone who wants to enter the black fog, but no one wants to pull me in. ”

Hu forced a smile and sighed: "I suddenly understand how your kid rushed all the way through the wasteland to Raw Meat Town alive, dare to love you for not doing anything risky at all." ”

"Not really." Zheng Nannan shrugged his shoulders and sighed, "It depends on whether it's worth the risk." ”
