Chapter 46: The Forest of Terror (1)

The next morning, after breakfast, they packed up their equipment and belongings, packed up their tents, put away the warning mines, and walked together in the direction of the misty forest in the valley.

In order to prevent mosquito bites and poisonous insect bites, Xinyu, Xiaoting and Xiaoyun wore long-sleeved tops and pants, and sprayed some mosquito repellent sprays on exposed skin, while Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu and several men all wore military camouflage uniforms.

Stepping on the wet grass, seeing the hideous faces of the white-haired monsters killed in the grass under their feet and the scene full of the strong smell of blood, everyone felt vaguely ominous and fearful, and this feeling was the strongest one for the three of them.

After passing the row of wooden stakes where they practiced shooting, they walked a few dozen steps further into the primeval forest of towering ancient trees.

Xu Jiandong turned around and said to everyone: "I will enter this primeval forest in a few minutes, you don't have to worry, we have a military compass, I believe that under its guidance, we will successfully cross the past, and now I have a request......... It's that after entering the forest, everyone has to follow the team, don't fall behind, and report the situation in time, have you heard it clearly............? ”

After hearing this, the big man Lao Hu said: "Okay, I said Lao Xu, you should take the lead and rush forward, all actions are under the command, and everyone will follow you.........." With that, he took the semi-automatic rifle he was carrying on his shoulder.

The thin man also answered: "Brother Xu, you can rest assured that the work of fighting wolves in the back will be handed over to me and Instructor Zhao, and you and Lao Hu will be responsible for opening the road and leading the road in the front.........." ”

Xu Jiandong looked at the thin man with eyes like looking at a monster, and said to him: "Qiangzi, when did you become an imperial soldier, how did you know that I would let you be cut off in the back............?" ”

The thin man didn't think about it and said: "Except for Sister-in-law Xinyu, the person who knows you is me, right, of course I know what you think in your heart......... Hehe. ”

When Xu Jiandong heard this, he said approvingly: "Alas, .........! I can't imagine that our Comrade Yin Qiang's progress is really not small, which is worth learning from our big guys......... Hehe! ”

The thin man said with a smile when he heard this: "Okay, brother, don't praise me anymore, have you forgotten, I have a problem, that is, I can't help but praise it, do you know ............?" ”

"Stinky boy......... I want you to act the same as your mouth. Xu Jiandong said with a smile.

After everything was arranged, Xu Jiandong and the big man Hu Dang led the way to the forest.

The forest in front of him was tall and thick, and it looked like a cedar or cypress tree.

There were a lot of dead branches and dead leaves on the grass in the forest, and a thick layer was laid on the ground, and it was soft to step on, so that if people practiced wrestling on it, they would not fall painfully.

The mushrooms that like this natural environment are naturally those mushrooms, a lot on the left and a lot on the right, the number of them is not clear, and the size is not small.

Seeing this, Xinyu and Xiaoting were about to bend down to pick, but they were stopped by Xu Jiandong, because he felt that now was not the time to pick this kind of thing, and now he had to hurry up and pass through this forest as soon as possible, which didn't seem very safe.

The trees in the forest are very diverse, ranging from tall and short to thick and thin, such as pines, cypresses, and so on.

The tall trees were inhabited by many unknown birds, chirping and flying overhead, and a hares or two and a few frightened snakes often sprang out of the grass, and occasionally there were creepy and strange cries like those of the devil, so that no one could tell for a moment what or animal was making sounds.

There were a few little squirrels with gray ochre black backs, dragging their big fluffy tails, leaping from branch to tree, not knowing whether the little ones were playing or hiding from the unwitty intruders.

But no one has the time and time to pay attention to these at the moment, and they look at them as if they are watching flowers, and their steps do not slow down and only care about moving forward.

As he was walking, the thin man suddenly pointed to a half-dead cedar tree next to him with a large number of mushroom-like purple-red things, and shouted happily: "Brother Xu! Look, this is a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, I heard that it has the effect of curing all diseases, curing all kinds of poisons and prolonging life, if it is sold for thousands of yuan in the market............! ”

As he spoke, he prepared to go up to the tree to pick the lingzhi.

Xu Jiandong turned his head to look at the pole of the big tree next to him, and sure enough, he saw a purple-red Ganoderma lucidum mushroom growing more than three meters above the ground.

The old cedar tree had been eaten by insects and was about to empty out, and the tree was full of holes drilled by insects, but the old tree did not die, but survived tenaciously, and gave birth to a lot of new branches and young leaves.

Seeing this, Xu Jiandong said: "Okay, Qiangzi, don't mess around, what kind of Ganoderma lucidum is this, I think it's just a poisonous fungus, we still don't waste time here, hurry up and move forward, I always feel that this forest is not safe............!" With that, he took him and walked forward.

Seeing this, the thin man was a little anxious, shook off Xu Jiandong, and said, "I said Brother Xu, you really don't know the goods?" I dare to guarantee with my head that this thing is 200% Ganoderma lucidum, if not, I will pluck the head for you............ ”

The big man Lao Hu was happy when he heard the thin man's words, and said to him: "Okay, Qiangzi, you should keep your head for yourself, Lao Xu doesn't have the strength to hold it, he is right, we still have to hurry, don't rub it here, if you have something to say out of the forest, it's not too late to say it.........!" ”

Xiaoting also stepped forward to persuade the thin man.

The thin man was helpless, and because of Xiaoting's face, he had to reluctantly agree.

And the people went on their way.

After walking for a short time, the thin man gently patted Zhao Bing's shoulder who was walking in front with his hand, and said to him in a low voice: "Xiao Zhao, I'll go and relieve my hands and come back in two minutes, you must not squeak, just act as if you didn't see anything, thank you............!" ”

Of course, Zhao Bing knew that the thin man was still thinking about the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, so he turned around and waved his hand to him again and again, signaling him not to mess around.

Where would the thin man listen to him, after saying hello, he was considered to have asked for leave, and he disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this, Zhao Bing smiled bitterly, only shook his head helplessly, and continued to follow Xu Jiandong and the others in front of him.

Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu walked in front, looking left and right to observe the grass and trees in the forest.

The forest is dense in one place, and it is very sparse in another, and the dense places cannot even be poured in by heavy rain, and the sparse places can let in the sun.

The further you walked inside, the darker the forest became, and the canopy of the towering trees overhead almost obscured the sky.

They went to a clearing in the middle of the woods, and said it was an open space, but in fact it was also overgrown with weeds, and there were several large dirt bags like grave bags, and there were many large holes in them, and these holes were almost big enough to get into them.

An unpleasant rancid smell rushed into the noses of everyone present, choking Xinyu, and the three girls hurriedly covered their mouths and noses with their hands.

There are some skeletons and some animal carcasses that have just died next to these large earthen bags, so that when people see them, they think they are mass graves.

But intuition tells everyone, how can there be so many animal bones on such a remote island, and what are these animals killed, are they those white-haired savages?

Looking at the animal bones under his feet, Xiao Jun asked in surprise: "Brother Xu, what kind of bones are these, there are so many of them, they are all killed by something, how do they look like slaughterhouses............?" ”

Xu Jiandong looked at the bones of the dead animals and the corpses that had not yet decomposed, shook his head and said, "I don't know very well, I have never seen this phenomenon, maybe it was a good thing done by those white-haired savages............ Whatever, let's keep on our way, everyone follow closely, don't fall behind! ”

Hearing this, Xiao Jun didn't say anything more, although he muttered in his heart.

The sun shone through the leaves, and the mounds were covered with grass, and the entrance to the cave looked like footprints that something had crawled over them, and the footprints were very special, as if someone had pierced the earth with a cone-shaped object.

Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu came to the entrance of the cave in front of the earthen bag, leaned down and watched carefully.

"Lao Hu, I think these holes are very likely to be badger holes, maybe there are badgers hidden in them............?" Xu Jiandong said to the big man Lao Hu.

The big man looked at the hole and shook his head and said, "I don't think so, if you look carefully at the footprints on the soil here in the cave, if it is a badger, it is impossible to have no obvious footprints ............." ”

He paused and said, "This is definitely not left by an animal like a badger, I have never seen such strange footprints ............. As he spoke, he pointed his finger to Xu Jiandong and the others.

Xu Jiandong glanced at it and said: "Okay old Hu, this island is full of weird, there are too many bizarre and strange things, we don't have time to study it here, no matter what it is, it ............... important for everyone to continue to hurry!" ”

The big old man nodded when he heard this, stood up and continued to walk forward.

After Zhao Bing followed everyone forward for a while, he looked back at the thin man who was far away, he didn't come back for a long time, and then looked at the watch on his wrist, it was almost ten minutes, why hasn't he come back yet, is something wrong, thinking of this, he can't help but feel a little uneasy, although he didn't agree with the thin man's move, but he has already acted, if he gets lost in this dense forest, it's not a joke, he feels more and more that the thin man's behavior is really fooling around, So he thought that he should tell Xu Jiandong and the others about this as soon as possible, and say it when he was not far from the thin man.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was wrong to hide it for him like this, and it might harm him, so he shouted at the back of the team: "Brother Xu............!"

Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu were walking forward, when they suddenly heard someone shouting from behind, so they immediately stopped and turned their heads to look behind.

Zhao Bing hurriedly walked up a few steps and said, "Brother Xu, the strong son is gone!" ”

Hearing this, everyone was startled at the same time, and looked around looking for the figure of the thin man.

Xu Jiandong asked puzzledly: "Isn't he behind you, how could he be gone, didn't he say something to you............?" ”

Zhao Bing thought for a while and said: "Brother Xu, I think Qiangzi may have gone to pick that Ganoderma lucidum, but now it is time to come back in half a day, he told me two minutes before I agreed to .........." ”

"Why didn't you tell me earlier, it's still two minutes, you can fully believe what he says, what can you do in two minutes, this kid is really too undisciplined......... Xu Jiandong said a little angrily.

Xu Jiandong said angrily: "Alas, ............! Why is this strong son so greedy for money, when has this been, and he still fills in the mess, he hasn't learned a lesson from the last time, why is he still doing his own thing......... If such a big forest is really lost, then it will be troublesome, this fucking kid is really angry? ”

In fact, for the loss of the thin man, the most anxious person at the moment is Xiaoting.

"Brother Xu, Sister Xinyu, Brother Hu, I beg you, you hurry up and think of a way, what to do, help find Brother Yin............!" Xiao Ting said anxiously to the two of them.

Xinyu comforted Xiao Ting when she heard this, turned her head to Xu Jiandong and said, "Jiandong......... Let's go back the way we came, I think we will find him, we can't do without Hadron ......... in our team. ”

"Let's go back and find it, what are you waiting for............!" After all, no matter how you say it, they are all brothers, can you care about it, even if there is no Xiaoting to intercede, Xu Jiandong will also go to him, but he is angry for a while.

"Hadron!" "Brother Yin!" "Hadron ........................!"

The voices of the crowd calling for the thin man resounded in every corner of the forest
