Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Strange Jungle
Looking at Lu Zhenren, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, he became more and more curious, and he didn't know how he and her small physique were exercised, running for so long, I was almost exhausted, but she was like a person who was fine, her face was not red, and she was not panting.
Alas, this man is more angry than a man.
In this way, after more than ten minutes, Lu Zhenren stood up from the ground and continued to rush towards the mountains with me, but this time she did not run, but walked briskly.
I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if I continued to run like before, I would really be exhausted to death.
After walking for about an hour, Lu Zhenren led me through a mountain stream with an extremely narrow space, and then through a large bush into a dense forest.
The tall and dense trees immediately covered the sun, and there was a damp and dark atmosphere in the whole dense forest, and I looked at the lush grass and vines around me, and I couldn't help but be a little surprised, there is such a place on this Laoshan Mountain?
It's almost like a tropical rainforest, and if it weren't for the different types of trees around, I really wouldn't be on Laoshan Mountain now.
Walking forward, the sky began to get darker, there was not much sunlight in this dense forest, and now it was even darker, I took out my mobile phone and looked at the time, it was already half past six in the afternoon.
"Alright, here we are." Lu Zhenren said and stopped under a big tree.
"I'm right here to get your training?" I glanced up at the huge banyan tree in front of Lu Zhenren, which the three of them might not be able to hold in their arms.
"Wrong, it's not me who trains you, it's you who train yourself." Lu Zhenren turned to look at me and said seriously.
"Myself?" I don't understand.
"Yes, it's you, your master should have told you what the most important thing in our line of work is to live, so what you have to do now is very simple, is to survive in this dense forest, that's all." Lu Zhenren looked at me and said indifferently.
"Live?" Looking at this primeval forest, I seem to understand something.
"Yes, as long as you live, I will come to pick you up after three days, rest assured, even if you die, I will take your body out and give your master an explanation." Lu Zhenren looked at me and said without the slightest affection.
After saying that, she seemed to remember something again, and continued to say to me:
"By the way, I have to remind you, our Dragon Tiger Sect has a total of three primeval forests that temper people, and this is the highest mortality rate, the Dragon Tiger Sect has been established for hundreds of years, and only ninety-four people have come out alive from here, and these ninety-four people also include thirty-three disabilities." Lu Zhenren looked at me and said.
"What ?!!" I almost didn't jump up when I heard what Lu Zhenren said, didn't I come to die! I looked at her busily and said:
Lu ...... Lu Zhenren, you're not kidding me, are you? Do I want to go back now? ”
Lu Zhenren answered the question:
"The scenery here seems to be very beautiful, but it hides a murderous motive, most of the carnivores, snakes and scorpions on the entire Laoshan Mountain are gathered here, for them, the trapped people are their food, of course, in the dead of night, this place will make you more unforgettable, training from now on, you ask for more blessings." After Lu Zhenren finished speaking, he threw a dagger and lighter from his backpack at my feet, and as soon as his body moved, he disappeared into the dense forest with a few jumps.
"Hey, hey, Lu Zhenren! I still have something to say!! I looked at Lu Zhenren's distant figure and shouted, but she didn't even look back and left directly.
After Lu Zhenren left, I was left in the whole jungle, although I didn't want to, but now I had no other choice, so I had to pick up the dagger and lighter that Lu Zhenren gave me first, and take it with me.
In this situation, these two things can save lives.
Looking around, except for the grass and vines, tall trees and shrubs, in this kind of place, all around are the same, I can't distinguish between east and west, north and south, and now I have a hunch that I have lost my way.
The whole jungle revealed an oppressive atmosphere, except for the chirping of insects, there was no other sound, and the surroundings suddenly became so quiet, it felt a little strange to be quiet.
It's scary to be quiet......
But I immediately forced myself to calm down, and I was ready to think about what to do next.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, the top priority was to collect dry firewood and light a bonfire, first, to keep warm at night, and secondly, the light of the bonfire could also block all kinds of wild beasts.
With that in mind, I began to quickly collect dry wood from all around.
One of the advantages of this jungle is that there is no shortage of wood everywhere I go, so after a while, I picked up a large pile of wood and piled it up under the tree.
By this time it was getting dark, so I quickened my hand and swept the dry leaves near the dry wood first, so as not to cause a fire when I lit the bonfire.
After lighting the bonfire, I was already soaking wet, and my clothes were sticking to my body, mainly because it was difficult to see the sun under the jungle, and it was damp.
And the mosquitoes around me bite all over the bag, especially annoying, I had to pull some wet grass from the neighborhood, put it on the bonfire to burn, the smoke to smoke away most of it, or tonight buddy will really feed the mosquitoes.
Although the bonfire was lit and the surroundings were lit up, because I couldn't see much of the sky, it was easy to have a claustrophobic feeling, and looking at the darkness around me, I couldn't help but feel a little weak in my heart, and I always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at me all the time.
This feeling grew stronger as time went on, but every time I looked back, I didn't find anything.
When Lu Zhenren left, he once told me that in this jungle, there are not only carnivorous beasts, but even in the dead of night, there will be more unforgettable things for me.
What does this portend? The more I thought about it, the more bottomless my heart became, and looking at the crackling bonfire burning in front of me, my heart couldn't help but rise.
"An Rushuang, where are you? Can you come out and accompany me? "Now that it's getting dark, I think of An Rushuang, and I want her to come out of the jade pendant to accompany me.
As long as she is by my side, I have a very safe and grounded feeling.
But I held the jade pendant and called for a long time, An Rushuang didn't answer me, it seems that she can't hear me talking outside in the jade pendant.
Without Tranquility, I was alone in the silent jungle around me, and I felt more and more scared, and anyone was born with a sense of fear of the unknown and the dark.
What was even more terrifying than the darkness was that I was in the dark, and I knew in my heart that there would be something in this darkness that threatened my life at any time!
"Whoosh! Sou! "Suddenly, there was a noise above me, and I looked up and saw nothing but darkness.
Just as I lowered my head, there was a strange "squeak" sound above my head, which was particularly harsh and strange in this dark and quiet jungle, and the sound spread far and wide.
At this moment, I couldn't sit still anymore, so I hurriedly stood up, took out a burning wooden stick from the bonfire with my left hand as a torch, and then held the dagger that Lu Zhenren gave me in my right hand.
I lifted the stick and followed the light of the fire towards the tree above my head, but I still didn't see anything where the fire shone on, because the flame on the stick was so low that I couldn't see it from a distance.
What the hell is there in that tree?
Thinking of what Lu Zhenren said to me when he was leaving, I became more and more panicked, but I had no choice, so I had to put down the wooden stick in my hand first, but just when I took the wooden stick back, the strange sound of "squeaking" came down from the top of my head again, and then the eyelids of my eyes also jumped wildly without warning.
Taking a deep breath and raising my guts, I hurriedly raised the wooden stick in my hand again, and shone it on the tree above my head, suddenly, a bright-eyed head suddenly stretched out from the branch, and the fire shone on the face of the thing, which looked particularly terrifying and demonic, and the thing's shiny eyes stared at me deadly, so frightened that I screamed directly, and the illuminated wooden stick in my hand almost came out of my hand!!
