Chapter 181: Dark
A forest is darkly lit.
Although it was a blue sky and a white day, the tall, straight trees blocked most of the sunlight, and only a few sparse rays of light passed through the gaps between the branches and leaves, scattered sporadically on the ground where rotting leaves were piled up.
The bitter autumn wind on the wasteland rustled across the treetops, as if in another world—the part of the trunk that they could see was not moving. You can see how dense this forest is.
Lin Shaoge chose a difficult path, many places were blocked by the trunks of hemlock trees, as if someone had used a sledgehammer to nail these trees to the ground one by one, building a wall - more than one, countless walls, layer upon layer, iron buckets were generally impermeable.
From time to time he looked up, his face sad. This made Bang Yue's heart hang.
There wasn't much dry food left on his body, and Lin Shaoge hadn't eaten normally for several days. In the wasteland, he eats some grass roots like a calf, and when he reaches the forest, he can always dig out some stems from the ground, which looks crisp and raw, and the juice is snow-white, but he doesn't let Bang Yue get the slightest touch, which is not a good food.
At night, the wind blowing on the treetops became louder, and it sounded like all ghosts were crying together, whining and seeping people.
Spectilipses of phosphorescent light drifted into the air from the rotting roots and leaves on the ground, and they walked around, not knowing whether they were the bones of the forest natives, or the outsiders who rushed into the forest when the flood came.
"Don't be afraid." He held her in his lap and leaned his back against the calf.
"Hmm." Bang Yue smiled, "I'll just think they're glowworms." ”
The forest is too dense for the moonlight to shine in, and Bang Yue learned for the first time what it is to really reach out and not see the five fingers.
She put her hands on his chest and looked up for him.
He just lowered his head, and the tip of her nose hit his chin. The two of them were stunned for a moment, then he tilted his head to catch her lips accurately in the darkness.
Sucking heavily, he parted slightly, his breathing was a little short, and said, "I can't see my fingers here, and I don't have to go to the tree." ”
Bang Yue was a little dazed by his kiss, and asked in a daze: "You look worried today, is it because you didn't find a tree branch that can hide people?" ”
"Hmm." He admits it very simply.
"Lin Shaoge, why are you ......" she was stunned, and the rest of the words were really unspeakable. How did you become so ...... Hue?!
"What?" His palms had reached into her garment, and he was walking away dishonestly.
She couldn't see it, but she knew his lips were hovering above her, ready to storm the city.
"It's fine." She pursed her lips and smiled down.
He attacked, as she lowered her head and his kiss landed between her brows. He was stunned and smiled lowly.
"Wait." He said.
Xi Suosuo fiddled for a while, shook out a few clothes from the baggage, spread them on the ground layer by layer, probed around with his hands, and then hugged her and pressed it gently.
The forest was too dense for the slightest light to shine through. Although the eyes have adapted to this darkness, they still cannot see, and even a blurred outline cannot be seen.
Both of them found it novel and interesting, and he supported his body with his elbows, dangling above her. The two breathed and smelled each other, but they couldn't see each other at all.
In the dark, quietly feel each other's heartbeats, as if - souls snuggled together.
Finally, he said in a deep voice: "The environment is not very good, it will be just one night." ”
She said "um" in a low voice, and said in her heart, which time did she make out with you...... The environment is better?
Soon, she had no time to be distracted—his hands, his lips began to ignite everywhere. He really learns everything very quickly, and this time, he looks like a veteran who is familiar with the road.
Fortunately, he took care of her body and didn't dare to make too many mistakes, and at the same time, he had to divide some of his mind to guide that internal force, so although Bang Yue was fascinated, he could still retain three points of his mind after all, and maintain the image of a good woman who was serious and passively pampered.
But she could already foresee that in the near future, he would be able to set her on fire and make her crazy for him.
This time, she clearly felt that something was abnormal in her body.
Afterwards, she knelt on his chest and asked weakly, "Shaoge, is there something that has run into my body?" ”
He knew she was referring to the internal force. Secretly pursed his lips and smiled, pretending to be puzzled: "Xiao Er, if you don't understand about men and women, I'm willing to tell you in detail—I'm just afraid that you will be ashamed." ”
Bang Yue hurriedly shook her head: "Don't, don't say it." I, I ......"
Shame turned into a big red face. She didn't know what he was going to say about the indecent bastard.
"Sleep." He kissed her hair gently.
I slept until noon.
The little cow was already waiting impatiently, and from time to time he turned his head and stared at Lin Shaoge.
He looked at the sleeping man in his arms, his face full of helplessness.
What made him even more speechless was that the calf's vivid look of contempt looked like he was saying, "Stupid human, don't think I don't know what you did at night. ”
……
……
The deeper you go into the forest, the denser it becomes.
It shouldn't be like this.
Although I don't know much about plants, Bang Yue roughly knows that the size of the space occupied by the crown and root system of a tree is about the same, that is, according to the normal situation, in nature, two trees should be kept at a distance where the branches and leaves do not intersect, so that their root systems will not rob each other of water and minerals, affecting growth.
Where can it be like this in front of you - there are many places where the trunk of a tree can't even fit between the palm of your hand?!
So most of the trees are dead.
Competition is always brutal.
But that doesn't mean normal. Because normally, nature cannot arrange such a life-and-death situation, and let the trees fight to the death.
Bang Yue asked, "Someone has moved these trees from other places, right?" ”
"Clever."
"Why?"
"Fortifications? Maybe. He cut down a few hemlocks that stood in his way. The calf walked leisurely over the trunks and branches of the trees.
"But how can you escape from such a dense forest if you are attacked by fire?"
"Fool, there's a way here, but we avoided it."
"That's right......" Bang Yue nodded slightly.
He smiled, and carefully explained to her how to tell which areas were safe and untreaded.
Bang Yue couldn't figure out the logical relationship between the color of the bark of the trees, the movement of the ant colony, the anomaly of the insect chirp, and the presence of people in his words, but it was rare that he was willing to say so much, so she listened attentively. That low and pleasant voice spoke in her ears, and his breath continued to pass over the side of her face, and she turned her head slightly from time to time to smell his unique botanical fragrance. So, what exactly he's talking about becomes less important.
As long as he's talking and she's listening, that's enough.
