082: Burning the Woods in Fury, a paradise
I don't know how long I slept here, and I don't have a watch on my body to see the time, I can only tell through the stars in the sky and personal feelings, and now it is estimated that it is about two o'clock in the morning, at this time I can't sleep anymore, my stomach is growling, and the whole person feels extremely sore, it is very likely that I am tired from running for a day.
I didn't dare to turn on the flashlight here, so I could only use the moonlight to tear the cloth strap of my calf to check it, but the moment I tore it, I got goosebumps all over my body, and I was a little disgusted to see that the whole calf was already blue and swollen, and the wound was blurred with flesh and blood, and the skin was open.
This light touch, suddenly like tens of thousands of ants at the same time tearing the heart and lungs, and like a piercing pain, I gritted my teeth and used the old method that I had used several times before, gunpowder.
However, just as I was about to sprinkle gunpowder, I suddenly heard a scream of 'ah' from the right hand side in the distance, and the sound was very similar to that of a woman, and almost instantly a picture flashed in my mind, there was a woman in the first batch of advance team members, she was an archaeologist, and I heard that she was a good person in the industry, and now in this kind of place, since you can hear the screaming of a woman, there is a chance that she is her.
I didn't have time to pay attention to my wound at the moment, so I tightened it with a cloth strap, gritted my teeth and got up with difficulty, first taking a few difficult steps, and only after getting used to the pain at the wound did I gradually increase my speed, but in this kind of area, there were either trees that covered the sky and the sun, or overgrown with weeds as tall as a man, and my speed could not have reached that fast at all.
It took fifteen or sixteen minutes to walk, and the screaming must have come from around in the morning, but when I walked here, there was not even the slightest sign of suspicion around. It's as if I misheard.
However, just as I was in doubt, suddenly there was a faint sound of footsteps at the end of the grass in front of me, accompanied by a rattling sound, as if something was gently sweeping away from the weeds.
At this point, my concentration became extremely serious, and I stared intently ahead, while crouching down slightly and staying quietly among the weeds. The gun in his hand was quietly loaded, and he waited for the things in the weeds to come.
As the voice got closer and closer to me, I didn't even dare to breathe, I held my breath and waited here quietly, listening to the voice, he was less than five meters, four meters, three meters, two meters away from me. One meter.
"Don't move!" I stood up abruptly and raised my gun to the front without saying a word, but the scene in front of me almost frightened me, only to see that what was standing in front of me at this time was not a person or a monster, but a big tree, a familiar humanoid tree that could no longer be familiar, looking at her huge body, I swallowed.
She didn't have the grumpy of the day under this moonlight. It's very quiet, quietly more like a very sexy woman. Her eyes looked at me tenderly, and I felt a little melted by her.
But during the day, Wei Changshou's death and the pain in my leg made me wake up almost instantly, and I didn't think too much about it.
For some reason, the humanoid tree screamed one after another, but it never attacked me. It's like she's dead, and when I see this, I don't have much room to think about it, since she doesn't fight back now, then I won't take this opportunity to kill you. So how can you be worthy of the dead Wei Changshou?
Without saying a word, I cut some weeds and put them under the tree, and then lit them with fire, which didn't matter, a little fire, almost in the blink of an eye, the big tree burned violently, and the speed of this burning was like igniting gasoline, burning to the extreme, just in the blink of an eye, the fire was like an unstoppable wild horse, scurrying around, running wildly.
At this time, I had to turn around and flee from here, there are basically some cypress trees and pine trees all around, plus these weeds, as soon as they burn, they can't stop at all, just a few minutes, the fire has spread to a diameter of one or two hundred meters wide, and the flames have even exceeded tens of meters or even a hundred meters high, I have been running forward at this time, and when I look back, I can vaguely see that the humanoid tree is twisting its body at this time, the lower half of the body has basically been burned black, and the hands have been completely burned to ashes. Not to mention other places, in no more than five minutes, this humanoid demon tree will definitely turn to ashes and disappear forever.
But the fire couldn't stop burning, and the surrounding area was getting bigger and bigger, and the temperature of the fire even felt that there was a scorching heat coming from 300 meters away, just like eating hot pot in a 42-degree summer.
No one knows how big this forest is, I ran for a long time during the day and I couldn't get out, and in this dark night I ran like this for nearly two hours, only knowing that I was almost a few kilometers away from the overwhelming fire area, but the fire still did not stop, but grew bigger and bigger, and the fire could be clearly seen even from standing here with me, and the sky over there turned a fiery red, and there was an indescribable sense of splendor.
At this time, I am gradually tired, not to mention how hungry my stomach is, let's just say that I am sleepy and tired! I can't even open my eyes.
I wanted to go to bed after I found a safe place, but I couldn't help it, and after walking for about two or three minutes, I reluctantly found a big tree, squinted and fell asleep with my back to it.
I don't know how long it has been since I slept this night, but now it is dawn, the sun in the sky is high and hanging, and the fire has somehow extinguished itself, and there is black smoke like rolling thunder clouds.
I struggled to get up and look around, the weeds around me were so short, and the longest was no longer than my knees, I looked up and looked, drink! I saw a hill about 200 meters away in front of me, and on the left side of the hill there was a river, and there were many fruit trees full of various fruits next to the river.
This is great news for me at this moment, and nothing can compare to it.
I didn't even think about taking a step, so I ran all the way over there. This ran for about a few minutes!
I finally arrived here, only to see that the river water is clear and translucent, and there are a few big characters carved on the broken wall of the hill, although I can't understand it, but I know that it should be the ancient Shu script, and these words are very likely to be the name of this place.
Look at the foot of the hill and the foot of the hill are full of flowers. Grass and so on, and then look at the fruit trees on this side, pears, pomelo, oranges can be said to be everything, and each fruit just looks like people have a feeling of appetite, at this time my stomach began to growl.
I didn't think about it, so I climbed up and picked a few fruits first, and I just wanted to eat them. Suddenly, a few flower butterflies flew faintly on the other side of the hill, and when I saw this butterfly, I was so frightened that the fruit in my hand fell to the ground, and I hurriedly picked up the gun and aimed it first.
I saw these butterflies, the smallest of which was five meters long with wings spread out, and its body height was almost the same as that of an adult, which looked extremely terrifying.
I kept my eyes on the butterflies, and they ignored me. Instead, it flew down the valley, which was about five meters wide and twenty or thirty meters long, and then curved to the right. As soon as they fly, they leave a brilliant rainbow of light on their tails, accompanied by the scent of flowers.
When I saw them fly into the valley, I stopped and prepared to pick up the fruit, but the fruit on the ground was rotten by this time, but I thought about it!
Fruit doesn't rot so fast. Could it be that these fruits can only be left on the trees, and they will rot immediately after being picked?
Although it sounds a bit too mysterious, I don't know that there are all kinds of wonders in this world, in case there is really such a saying in this world. So what?
But since the fruit is rotten, and I don't plan to continue picking and eating it, after all, I know that I am now in a place where no one has ever come in and everything is unknown, so I have to be careful in everything, or I will really lose my footing and hate it for eternity! You know, there were three members of the team who drank the stream water and died, and I won't make this mistake a second time! However, now I am hungry and I can't stand it, looking at the dense fruit on my head, I
Just as I was hesitating, suddenly there was a scream from within the valley, followed by an overwhelming burst of gunfire, and I was stunned when I heard it.
Could it be that the rest of the advance team and the follow-up troops have found this place? And all into the valley?
It looks like the answer here is in this valley, and it seems like I'm about to find the answer and solve some of the puzzles.
I was excited at the thought of this, but when I looked around, it was empty, and there was nothing that could be used as a boat to cross the river, so how could I follow the river into the valley?
I finally saw hope, but now I got myself into it again, and after a few curses in my mouth, I began to look around to see if there was another way to enter the valley, but it turned out that there was not, the upper reaches of the river led to the underground river about two or three miles to my right, and as for whether there was any other road, anyway, I couldn't find any or similar road that could lead to the valley after two or three hours.
At that moment there was another shot in the valley, and with it the roar of something, the moment I heard it, my mind flashed almost instantly with the roar I had heard in that woods the other day.
The sound was almost exactly the same as the roar I heard that day, it seemed that there was indeed something in the valley, and as for those gunshots, it was very likely that they were the surviving members of the advance team and the follow-up team, and it was not easy for them to survive until now, and I had to find them as soon as possible, and by the way, find out the whole thing.
However, the first problem in front of me is this river, how do I cross it?
That's when a bold idea came to me, and that was to swim in, anyway, just swim to the cliff, touch the wall with one hand, and swim in little by little with the other.
The depth of the river is far beyond my expectations, I thought it was two or three meters deep, but I didn't expect that when I got out of the water, I immediately felt the depth of the river, just took a step and the whole person sank suddenly, fortunately, my swimming skills and reaction ability are not inferior, otherwise this sudden even if I don't die, I will be scared to drink several sips of water.
I swam desperately to the edge of the cliff with all my brute strength, and swam towards the valley little by little by touching the cliff with both hands, swimming about twenty meters or so, there was a bend on the right side, turning the corner, and in front of me was a straight line leading to the end of the invisible mountain, but on both sides of the river were flowers larger than the people, overgrown with weeds, and a beautiful scenery of barren mountains and mountains, and paradise.
The river went straight forward for about forty or fifty meters, and suddenly dozens of butterflies larger than a human flew in front of them, and all the grass and flowers that these butterflies flew over began to become full of life, as if they had been sprayed.
I thought to myself, 'It seems that these butterflies are not normal, and you need to be careful, otherwise you may encounter some unknown dangers.' ’
Thinking of this, I didn't think much about it, took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and sank directly, and after more than twenty seconds, I rushed out of the water, and then looked around, and sure enough, it was exactly the same as I expected, there were still some flowers with yellow leaves and some withered weeds on both sides of the river, but after these butterflies flew over, they all seemed to be resurrected, and there were signs of radiance.
I tried to touch the flowers with my hands, but before my fingers could touch them, suddenly they began to tighten their leaves, and countless small, sharp spikes appeared on the petals.
I was so frightened that I hurriedly took my hand back, and then looked at the flowers, which had suddenly tightened together, and I was stunned when I saw this scene, and said that this seemingly beautiful and moving flower actually hides such a danger, these flowers are not normal flowers, nor are they dead, but alive, that is, the cannibal flowers that have always been controversial.
Although no one has ever seen flowers eat people, the scientific community has long proved that there are many kinds of plants in this world that do live by eating small insects, but those plants are generally small, and naturally they can't eat a whole person, but the flowers here are different, each flower is more than two meters in diameter when it unfolds, and from the fact that the flowers are tightened just now, the petals stretch out their spikes, and this flower is really very likely to live by devouring large creatures.
Two meters is naturally an unattainable height for ordinary people, so it is more than enough to eat one person.
I wanted to use my knife to cut down all the flowers I could reach in this vicinity, but just as I was about to swing the knife in my hand, suddenly there were a few flashes of light in the valley not far ahead, and this light could penetrate more than a hundred miles, I really wanted to know what was shining light, and it could penetrate a heavy mountain and even more than ordinary people could understand.
