Chapter 22: The Polar Black Forest

As soon as it was dawn, before Zhang Tianye's alarm clock rang, Dewey had already packed up his tent and lit the fire that had been extinguished last night, and a rabbit was roasted on the fire rack, exuding an enticing fragrance.

Dewey shouted at the two of them to get up while roasting the rabbit, Qi Xin reluctantly opened his eyes, opened the zipper of the tent, and when he saw the golden rabbit meat that was almost finished roasted on the fire rack, his saliva was about to flow out, and he quickly drilled out of the tent.

Zhang Tianye was no exception, after opening his eyes, he smelled the smell of rabbits, and his appetite increased greatly, and the three of them gnawed on the rabbit meat with half a pot of spirits left over from last night, and Qi Xin praised Dewey's craftsmanship and superb hunting skills while eating.

A rabbit was quickly divided up by three people, and the last hind leg meat was also snatched by Qi Xin from Dewey's hands, and the three people with their mouths full of oil sat on the ground and burped with satisfaction after eating the game.

After a short rest, Dewey, who had his surname Lee in the morning, took care of the fire, especially in such a wilderness, and it would be a terrible thing for the slightest spark to ignite from this grassy clearing.

When Zhang Tianye stretched out his right hand and was about to pull out the stake fixed on the ground at one end of the tent, he found that there was a dark red scar on his wrist, and there was a very irregular pattern at the scar, which looked like a burning flame.

This made Zhang Tianye very surprised, and he couldn't figure out where this wound came from, Dewey saw Zhang Tianye bent over in a daze alone, and thought that the stake was too deep, and he couldn't pull it out, so he stepped forward to take a hand.

When Zhang Tianye saw Dewey bent over, he covered the wound on his wrist with his hand, and said to Dewey with a smile: "Brother Du, then I'll trouble you."

Dewey didn't even raise his head and said, "It's okay, it's all trivial."

In the process of Dewey's stake, Zhang Tianye carefully observed Dewey's two wrists, and found that he did not have the same wounds on his body as his own, and thought to himself: "This thing is really strange, where did the wound come from."

Due to Dewey's joining, Zhang Tianye's simple tent was soon cleaned up, and Qi Xin on the side had only just finished half of the work, and Dewey was just about to get up and prepare to take a hand, but was stopped by Zhang Tianye.

He said to Dewey: "Brother Du, I'll go and help, you are still carefully checking the fire, don't have any problems."

Dewey nodded, and walked in the direction of the fire, Zhang Tianye came to Qi Xin's side and helped him clean up, Qi Xin smiled and said to Zhang Tianye who came to help: "Zhang Shao, do you have any arrangements to return to Hualong County today, otherwise, let's invite Dewey and Du Xuan to have a meal, after all, they helped us."

As soon as Qi Xin's words came out, Zhang Tianye knew what he was thinking in his heart, this playboy was about to play the trick of picking up girls again, just at this time, Zhang Tianye grabbed Qi Xin's hand and laughed evilly: "Monkey, you are going to think crookedly again."

Qi Xinke disagreed with Zhang Tianye's statement, and said stubbornly: "Don't be a dog who can't spit out ivory in his mouth, I'm too lazy to take care of you" One hand pulled away, Zhang Tianye grabbed his hand, turned around, and was about to clean up the tents scattered on the ground.

It was at this time that Zhang Tianye saw Qi Xin's wrists on both hands, and also found that his wrists were very clean, only on his body, there was that wound, he really couldn't figure out where he had made such a wound.

After Qi Xin finished packing up the tent, the three of them gathered around the fire that had been extinguished, and when they were about to go back the way they came, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and the wind was very cold, blowing the hat Qi Xin was wearing to the ground, and the coldness was close to the heart.

There was a foul smell in the wind, which made them retch, and almost vomited out the rabbit meat they had just eaten, precisely because this wind reminded Zhang Tianye of the events of last night, when the sun's rays had completely shone on the grass clearing, which made people feel refreshed.

It was still early, Zhang Tianye patted the shoulders of the two people and said: "Brothers, are you familiar with this smell, otherwise, we will take two steps forward and get to the Black Forest, no matter what happens, we will turn back"?

Qi Xin didn't agree very much, and was a little reluctant to move forward, but Dewey said with great interest: "I also feel that it's a pity not to go and see, what the hell is it, with such a great ability, it can kill a black blind man."

The two people who ignored Qi Xin's call set him up one left and one right, and walked in the direction of last night, after Qi Xin was set up by two people, he couldn't help but say: "You two crazy people, I'm really not afraid of encountering something evil, beating you to the tooth, and you want to be sent to death, don't pull the master, I haven't lived enough."

After breaking free of the hands of Zhang Tianye and the others on his shoulders, Qi Xin reluctantly followed behind them and walked forward, his sight during the day was many times stronger than at night, and the three of them walked for less than ten minutes before they came to the place where they stopped walking last night.

At this time, the pool of blood on the ground, under the sunlight, became even more weird, as if it was like boiling water in a kettle, round and bulging, not at all like the state I saw yesterday.

Dewey, who has always been very bold, picked up a branch from the ground next to him and poked it into the pool of bulging black blood before Zhang Tianye could see the situation.

Seeing this, Zhang Tianye hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Dewey, but he didn't expect that it was too late, the black blood had been picked, and the seemingly coagulated blood that was broken was opened out of a hole the size of a thumb.

Streams of black blood flowed out of it, and the stench became even stronger, and the three of them hurriedly stepped back and covered their mouths with their hands.

The three people who had just stood firm, when they once again set their eyes on the ball of blood, Zhang Tianye's face changed, because there was a rapid rustling sound behind them, listening to the sound like the sound of mollusks crawling on the grass, Zhang Tianye didn't look back, he pulled up the two people and ran forward, the two people who were pulled turned back reflexively, and when they turned around, the two people were completely dumbfounded.

Following Zhang Tianye's pace, he ran forward quickly, and Zhang Tianye, who was running in front, shouted to the two of them: "Don't look back, run forward quickly."

The two of them didn't understand what the situation was, but they were already aware of the crisis in front of them, and they didn't dare to say anything, so they ran forward with that breath.

At this moment, for them, there is no concept of time, everything has been forgotten in their minds, when they stopped, the three of them were exhausted, none of them dared to lie down, they all leaned back against the tree, and looked back at the back for the first time.

When he was sure that there was nothing behind him, he relaxed his vigilance and sat under the tree, panting heavily, Qi Xin, who said without taking a breath last time: "I'm scared to death, I can't see what the black pressure is"?

Dewey then said with some fear: "It's a flower spider and a ten-legged scorpion, I've never seen so many bugs, more than my hair!"

Although the metaphor is not very appropriate, Zhang Tianye can understand their feelings, and at the same time, he can understand why he encountered these anti-climate poisonous insects yesterday.

But at this time, it was not time to explain to them, Zhang Tianye did not take over the conversation directly, but stood up with difficulty on the shoulders of the two people, and said to the two people: "There is still bad news, do you want to listen to it"?

The two of them said in unison: "What else, bad news"?

Zhang Tianye said calmly: "Brother Du, just look at the surrounding environment."

When Dewey followed Zhang Tianye's words, glanced around, and said to Qi Xin, who was anxiously waiting for the result: "Monkey, unfortunately, we have entered the Black Forest."

After hearing this, Qi Xin suddenly stood up from the ground, and a sentence popped out of his mouth, "I just escaped a catastrophe, and here is another disaster"!

As soon as the words fell, the long-lost rustle sounded again, and the three of them were shocked, and almost at the same time burst into foul language, and ran forward desperately, Qi Xin, while running, said: "Brother Du, I not only owe Zhang Tianye that bastard in my last life, but also owe you, what are you doing with a stick and stabbing that pool of black blood, the fox didn't catch it, and it made a fuss."

Seeing the black crushing flower spiders and ten-legged scorpions rushing towards them in swarms, the speed was very similar to the marching ants in the Amazon River Basin, and the physical strength of the three people was also close to the limit, when the black crushed insect swarm was about to cover them......

In the panic, Zhang Tianye had an idea, found out the reason, and shouted loudly to the two people running behind him: "Hurry up and take off your shoes, throw them over, hurry up"!

While speaking, Zhang Tianye had already stopped his steps to run forward, turned around, took off his shoes, and threw them over, his tone was extremely firm, and he didn't give them the slightest room to consider.

When they stopped and were about to pull Zhang Tianye to run forward again, they saw that the swarms of poisonous insects behind them had stopped moving forward and tightly surrounded Zhang Tianye's shoes.

The two, seeing that this method worked, hurriedly followed suit, took off their shoes, and threw them straight over, just at this time also gave them a chance to breathe, the three of them began to run wildly again, without shoes, the soles of the feet of the three people suffered a great crime, but they did not dare to stop, for fear that the poisonous insects behind would catch up.

Fortunately, this time up the mountain, they were wearing professional hiking boots, and there were also shoes in the backpack that they were originally wearing, after determining the absolute safety, Zhang Tianye was the first to stop, and said to the two people who were still running forward, panting and puffing: "Okay, stop."
