Chapter 106: Poplar Forest 9
"This fucking spooky place at night!" Fat Bear shook his flashlight and said.
"yes, maybe you'll meet something." I worried.
"Why don't you set up your tent and rest for a while, and then hurry when it's dawn." Zheng Tian said tiredly with his hands on his hips.
I also felt that it was not safe to walk at night in this forest, so I glanced at Nangong Han and Professor Wu and asked for their opinions. Professor Wu thought the same as us, and thought it would be better to walk during the day, so he instructed Morson and them to set up their tents.
But Nangong Han didn't give me an answer, looked up at the sky, and made a move that surprised me incomparably: he actually walked to the edge of a poplar tree, followed the trunk, and climbed up to the treetops.
"What is this guy climbing a tree trunk for? The trees were bare, and there was no fruit to eat. Fat Bear wondered.
"As the saying goes, if you stand tall and look far, I guess he wants to go up and judge where we are now." Zheng Tian analyzed.
The fat bear waved his hand again and again: "Fart! It depends on the terrain why he didn't look at it during the day, and now he has to run up like a monkey, and besides, this forest is so big, and the trees here grow about the same, even if you climb up, you can't see a name! ”
At this time, Professor Wu smiled and said, "I know what he's doing." ”
"Hey, Lao Wu, you are such a god, you can even guess the actions of this strange person?" Fat Bear said in disbelief.
Professor Wu pointed to the bonfire that John had just lit on the ground and said, "Just look at this. ”
"He's afraid of fire, so he's hiding in a tree and sleeping?" The fat bear's eyes widened, and he said seriously.
I almost laughed when I heard this, thinking that if Nangong Han heard it, I would definitely think that our group of people had a low IQ.
Professor Wu shook his head: "No, think about it, now that it's night, what is the one thing Gan Feng and them will do like us?" ”
Ai Lanlin looked at the bonfire and then at Nangong Han on the tree, and suddenly said happily: "It's a bonfire!" Now it is dark in this forest, so the bright place will be particularly obvious, Nangong Han is on a high place to see if there are any bonfires like us! If you find the campfire, you find Ganfeng and them!"
As soon as Ai Lanlin's words fell, I heard the sound of Nangong Han landing in my ears, and when Ai Lanlin saw him coming down, she hurriedly took a step forward and said eagerly: "How is it, do you see the bonfire?" ”
Nangong Han clapped his hands, looked ahead and said, paused for a long time, and spit out two words: "No." ”
Alan Lin immediately became depressed, and slowly walked to the campfire and sat down in thought.
Professor Wu sighed: "Under normal circumstances, at night, Gan Feng and his party must build a bonfire, unless they have no fire source, or are afraid that lighting a bonfire will attract the attention of something. ”
I nodded and felt reasonable, at this time, Zheng Tian said a few times, as if he had any opinions to express, I saw that he was very unhappy, so I urged him to say quickly. Zheng Tian glanced at Ai Lanlin, who was sitting by the bonfire, and whispered, "I think there is another possibility, that is, they have already hung up." ”
As soon as Zheng Tian finished speaking, Ai Lanlin turned his head and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”
I hurriedly asked Zheng Tian to set up a tent to the side, so that he could temporarily leave Ai Lanlin's fierce gaze.
Professor Wu walked to the campfire and comforted Ai Lanlin and said, "I also believe that Gan Feng will be fine, but if something really happens, please be strong, after all, our mission is not yet complete." ”
Alan Lin's mood calmed down a little, and she nodded sadly.
At this time, Nangong Han said quietly: "They are indeed alive. ”
As soon as Nangong Han finished saying this, Ai Lanlin stood up suddenly, looked at him with a look of hope on his face, and said, "Do you know where they are?" ”
"No, I don't know." Nangong Han shook his head expressionlessly.
Ai Lanlin didn't give up, she tugged at Nangong Han's sleeve and said eagerly: "You must know!" You know a lot of things! Tell me quickly. ”
Elan Lin's mood swings have been very good these days, which is very different from her usual cold personality. Sure enough, love is a poison, and taking it will make people crazy.
Nangong Han ignored Ai Lanlin and turned around to close his eyes and meditate.
"Mr. Nangong, we are now a team, and I hope you can share what you know with us." Professor Wu said sincerely.
Nangong Han naturally didn't pay attention to what Professor Wu said, because he didn't really think of himself as a member of this team from the beginning, and I guess he was with us out of more "pity".
"They should still be in the woods." Nangong Han opened his eyes and said.
Alan Lin nodded gratefully, and slowly sat back by the campfire to adjust her emotions.
The poplar forest at night is more dangerous than during the day, and during the day we can at least detect the enemy's movements for the first time, and at night it is completely clear and dark, and there will even be some "dirty things" that should not appear in this world.
After we had a simple meal in the evening, we drew lots to arrange for people to take turns to keep vigil, and the rest of the people went back to the tent to sleep, I was unlucky, and the fat bear chattered into a group, and the night was three o'clock in the morning, at this time the Lop Nur Desert was still sleeping, the desert sun was like fire during the day, but the cold wind blew straight at night, which really responded to the old saying in the desert, "Wear a cotton jacket in the morning and wear yarn in the afternoon, and eat watermelon with a stove." ”
When it was time for the vigil, I shook the fat bear who was lying on his back, but this guy slept like a dead pig, and he couldn't wake up, so that he woke up Zheng Tian, who had just fallen asleep, and he said helplessly: "You can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep." ”
I suddenly realized when I heard it, and said in my heart that you dead fat man originally wanted to escape the vigil, but as soon as Zheng Tian's words fell, the fat bear jumped up, and said angrily: "You fucking are all spewing people in this bloody mouth, which eye did you see the fat man and I pretending to be asleep?" ”
Fearing to wake up the others again, I quickly pulled the fat man out of the tent.
We were scheduled to leave at five o'clock in the morning, so I had to endure the exhaustion and stay with the fat man for two hours, and this bastard is so fond of telling ghost stories that he will scare you with a ghost story, which is a catastrophic thing for me.
I squatted beside the campfire, looked at the bonfire flames shaking strangely in the cold wind, stretched out three fingers and said solemnly: "Fat bear, let's make three chapters of the law, this first thing is to ask you not to tell me any more ghost stories in the next two hours, if you agree, then we may be friends for two hours." ”
The fat bear nodded very positively, but he put on a look of wanting to say something, and I couldn't see that anyone could swallow it, so I said, "As long as it's not a ghost story, it's okay to say anything." ”
The fat bear let out a "hmm", and then said in a strange way: "Four-eyed boy, you seem to have a hand behind your back." ”
