Chapter Ninety-Three: Dead
I took my gun, put away my flashlight, turned on my headlamp, and looked around the bamboo forest, and the rattling sound came from the high ground to the west, as if some large creature was rushing down on us. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info. Visit:.
Everyone was walking on thin ice in this strange environment, vigilant and abnormal, and they all played 120,000 'spirits'. Soon, the thing that made the noise popped up, and when I looked closely, I was stunned, it was a giant panda!
It is obviously not the one we saw when we first entered the bamboo forest, this giant panda is even smaller, with a lot of bamboo leaves on its body, and it almost rolls down from the heights, and when it sees us, the bear can be said to have a very human 'human' expression on its face, staring at us for a while.
Since the other party is a giant panda and belongs to the type that rarely takes the initiative to attack, we didn't shoot, just guarded. After the giant panda rolled down, it didn't take long for it to pout and continue to crawl down, ignoring us, and soon disappeared from our sight.
Everyone looked at each other, only to feel a false alarm.
At this moment, the natural dumb motioned for us to take off the gas mask. The giant panda is so active in the bamboo forest in the middle of the night, it seems that these fogs, maybe ordinary earth qi, should not be poisonous, wearing a gas mask, it is really a bit troublesome.
Everyone put away their masks, there was a smell of bamboo in the air, 'mixed' with the faint rotten smell of fallen leaves, it didn't smell bad, and after smelling it for a while, I didn't feel any discomfort in my body, it seems that we were overly careful before.
Zheng Gongchengdao; "That giant panda, I don't rest at night, I don't know what to run around in the bamboo forest."
Curly fur yawned and said tiredly, "I don't care what it's running for, I just want to get out of this damn forest now, and then find a place to sleep, and sleep until the sun is shining." β
The illiterate added, "No, I want to sleep until the sun sets; β
Xiao Heizi said, "Don't say it, the more you talk about me, the more sleepy I become, I haven't even seen the shadow on the edge of this bamboo forest." β
The crowd continued to move on, and for another hour we could not walk. It's not because of physical strength, the people present are not ordinary people, although tired, but gritting your teeth and walking for a day and a night is no problem, the reason why we have to stop is that the fog here is too thick, and in the end, the visibility of the line of sight has been reduced to a very terrible range.
Almost two meters away, there was nothing to be seen, and there was a thick fog in front of us that the wind could not blow, and the two people were walking back and forth, and the back of the person in front of us was blurry.
Occasionally, when the other party turns around, the facial features are also blurred, and in the changing mist, the person's face is covered from time to time, as if the face is mutilated, which is very weird.
There are no eyes, and you can still rely on hearing, but the mountain wind is too strong at night, and the sound of rustling bamboo leaves echoes in the bamboo forest, and the whistling wind makes people's hearing confused a lot.
Illiterate in the process of walking, and our deviation, walking and walking turned out to be gone, everyone called each other, only to re-collect her, with this accident, natural stay finally gave up his idea of walking out of the black bamboo forest overnight, he thought for a moment, signaled everyone to find a flat highland, set up camp on the spot.
The bamboo forest is relatively dry, as long as there is no fire, the place to camp is actually easy to find, we quickly 'made' the tent, hung camp lanterns on the surrounding bamboo, tried to expand the lighting range, arranged a vigil, and then lay down to rest.
With the example of those six men in front of us, we pitched our tent with unprecedented care, and surrounded the tent in a circle, and all three ventilation holes were blocked, leaving only one ventilation hole facing the night watchman, so that it would be difficult for anything to climb into the tent and harm anyone.
For the sake of safety, this vigil is a round of three people, one in the middle, two outside the tent circle to patrol back and forth, each of them only for an hour, at dawn, we have to hurry up and leave, that is, the average rest time of each person is only about four hours.
I was arranged in the last group.,Not arranged in the middle.,It's relatively cool.,So you don't have to sleep halfway and get up again.,It's probably because my combat power in this group of people is scum.,So I give special care.γ
As soon as I got into the tent, all the worries and vigilance of the night disappeared without a trace, and after the extreme physical and 'spirit' exhaustion, I suddenly relaxed, and the whole person was almost fluttering, and as soon as I lay down, I couldn't get up again, that kind of comfort, which made people feel that even if there were really some poisonous snakes and beasts standing in front of them, they would sleep first;
I fell asleep almost as soon as I closed my eyes, and I fell into a deep unconscious sleep, and when I was woken up, I almost thought I had just gone underwater.
However, the truth is, four hours have passed, and I looked at the watch on my wrist, as if time had been fast-forwarded, and it showed that it was already five o'clock in the morning. When I walked out of the tent, the thick fog outside had dispersed a lot, and the sky was about to be bright, and there were dew drops hanging on the red leaves.
Pulled out of deep sleep, the brain that has not been fully rested, the nerves have a feeling of 'pumping' pain, and the thinking has become extremely slow, and I am in a group of illiterate and little black people, the illiterate people sit in the middle of the tent, and I and little black people patrol around the tent.
It's dawn now, the darkness is fading, the danger is receding, and the pressure on our last shift isn't really great.
As he walked, Xiao Heizi lowered his voice and said, "There was no movement this night, you say, what killed those six people?" β
I said, "Whatever it is, let's just don't meet it anyway, there's still forty minutes, hold on." β
In an extremely tired environment, the rest time is often 'fine' to the point, we pinch the watch, the sky is getting brighter, the thick fog between the bamboo forests, and finally dissipates only the mist floating between the bamboo tops.
After arriving at the point, the three of us entered the tent one by one, intending to wake up the sleeping people in the tent, I entered the tent where Zheng Gongcheng and Hawkeye and others slept, because it was summer, it was not too cold, so we did not carry sleeping bags, and several people inside were lying on the anti-'moisture' mat, sleeping to death.
I pushed Zheng Gongcheng and told him to get out of bed, but Zheng Gongcheng didn't move.
I thought he was in a deep sleep, and was about to raise his voice, when suddenly, a scream suddenly broke the dawn.
This exclamation was made by the 'woman', who was obviously illiterate, as if she had been greatly frightened. I was taken aback, and immediately opened the tent and ran out, while Xiao Xu was running out of a tent in a panic, and when he saw me, he quickly grabbed my arm, pointed to the inside of the tent, and trembled, "Dead, dead, all dead!" As he spoke, the whole person trembled.
I buzzed in my head, and without saying a word, pushed Xiao Xu away and got into the tent she had just run out of; The Tie sisters sleeping in this tent, a total of four people, are all working hard when they go out, and they don't distinguish between men and women. Tie Jie, Curly Mao, and two other people were huddled in a tent, they were obviously slightly moved, and they all maintained a face-up posture.
When I looked closely, although they seemed to be sleeping, their lips were as red as blood, and their bodies stiffened when they touched their tentacles, as if they had been poisoned to death.
When I saw that I was lying down calmly like everyone else, my whole body was cold, and I couldn't wake up no matter how I screamed, I only felt that my strength was 'pumped' out, and the whole person sat in the tent.
In a pile of corpses, to be exact.
Dead, everybody dead.
Is it a dream?
I pinched my big 'thigh' hard, stabbing my brain that didn't wake up, and the pain really woke people up, I took a deep breath and immediately went to check on the condition of the natural stay.
If the rest of the people die, how can he die? How could he die so silently? He had survived alone in the barren and uninhabited snowy region for so long, what danger had he never seen, how could he be so easily hit?
Natural stay is a very vigilant 'sex' person, when outside, unless he is 'unconscious', he will not really sleep at all, almost whenever there is any danger, he is the first to wake up.
I don't believe these people just died.
I went to sniff out, 'feel' the pulse, listen to the heartbeat, try to find some life, but without exception, nothing changed.
Xiao Heizi and Xiao Xu were already 'messing up', their eyes were straight, like frightened birds, Xiao Xu muttered, "What should I do now, what should I do?" Weβlet's get out of here. β
I forced myself to calm down and said to the little black man, "Don't you understand corpses? Give them a check-up and find out the cause of death. β
Xiao Heizi swallowed his saliva and said; "What's the use of finding the cause of death now, let's hurry back while it's dawn."
