Chapter 371: Lost
Shi Ruoyu and his teammates kept moving away from the riverbank, and after exiting about 500 meters, there was no more giant crocodile rushing out of the dark river to bite people.
After cleaning up the last few entanglements, Shi Ruoyu discussed with Yu Yerong and Xia Yingying, and decided to temporarily bypass the dark river just now, but chose to go upriver for a while, and then find a way to cross the river, anyway, with Ren Guobin in the way, it should not be difficult for them to cross the river.
However, at this time, Xiao Wanqing suddenly jumped out, she didn't bother to pay attention to Shi Ruoyu's decision on where to go, but insisted on bringing a big crocodile corpse to do scientific research.
Shi Ruoyu couldn't help the eldest lady, he looked left and right, summoned Liu Xi to his side, and after discussing it with the girl zombie, the latter shrugged his shoulders indifferently, grabbed a relatively complete large crocodile corpse, and easily dragged the huge body three or four times longer than its body like a mop and followed the team slowly.
They followed a parallel route to the river, walked upstream for about a kilometer, and then turned back to the dark river.
Once again, I came to the edge of the dark river, which was only a kilometer away from the place where the accident had just happened, but the speed of the river here eased slightly, but the river surface became wider.
Ren Guobin shouted, under the command of Yu Yerong, he made a long stick out of scrap copper and rotten iron, and then stabbed into the dark river!
The two people in charge of the flashlight in the team are Zhu Ying and Ah Ming, they are the weakest in the team, so they hide in the middle of the team and dare not approach the dark river.
However, when they watched the iron rod that was deeply inserted into the water staggering and disappearing, they couldn't help but exclaim at the same time, and Zhu Ying shouted again and again: "Ruoyu." How can the water be so deep here! At least more than five meters! How can it be. It's underground! ”
Shi Ruoyu approached the dark edge. Frowning and saying bitterly: "I'm not an address scientist, I can't explain this problem, the only thing I can say is that this dark river is very dangerous!" We have to be careful! ”
Zhu Ying whispered with some fear: "If it rains, do we really want to cross the river?" ”
Shi Ruoyu spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "It seems that there is no other choice...... I've come here, so I'm leaving? ”
Yu Yerong also said lightly: "What's more, even if we want to retreat, we may not be able to escape, on the ground outside the well, zombies and those monsters should also be divided, even if we go out, how can we break through the camp of so many monsters?" The only way to find the wanderers in front of you and even the Provisional Government is to find them quickly. Only when all of us humans work together can we survive! ”
Xia Yingying added: "Well, we have to move faster, no matter who wins the monster or the zombie, with their sense of smell and intuition, sooner or later they will go down the well on a large scale, so it's better to cross the river as soon as possible!" ”
Finally, this time the group of people in the mental hospital crossed the river without danger, and there were not only Ren Guobin in their team, but also Wang Lina, who flew directly across the river as soon as he spread his wings, which could help Ren Guobin build a stronger bridge on the other side. It can also provide air support when the companions cross the river, such as Amin, who is too timid. Just hug it up.
And during the whole process of crossing the river, he was not harassed by that kind of big crocodile, which can only be said to be lucky.
After arriving at the opposite bank, Ren Guobin immediately took away the iron bridge, so that if the zombies rushed down, the big river would become their moat, because the biggest weakness of the zombies was that they couldn't swim.
It's a pity that if it's that kind of kappa that rushes down, then the blocking effect of this river is almost zero, and those mutated monsters from Dongying are originally aquatic......
Getting back to the point, finally after a series of twists and turns, the group of the mental hospital still stepped on the opposite shore in the darkness, and they immediately decided to go down the river and return to the vicinity of Ren Yuxin and their team just now to find the whereabouts of the 'Scarlet Rose' team and other teams.
However, to everyone's surprise, they had just walked less than 300 meters along the river bank (which had maintained a straight distance of more than 100 meters from the dark river for safety), and a stone wall that spanned the entire space blocked their way! In other words, they can't go straight back to the location of Ren Yuxin's accident just now along the riverbank!
Ye Yizhou even tried to slash at the stone wall with an axe, although the entire underground space was slammed, the stone wall did not shake in the slightest.
Shi Ruoyu and they could only give up helplessly, and then Yu Yerong asked us to go back to another bridge, and walk back to the other side of the river...... As a result, Shi Ruoyu denied it on the spot, and it would not be a matter if he would encounter a large number of giant crocodiles.
Instead of tossing and turning back like this, it is better to simply stick to this stone wall and continue to move forward in a deeper direction!
It's just that it seems that they won't be able to join the other teams for a short time, and it will depend on the dozen humans and special creatures in the team themselves.
Fortunately, the companions in Shi Ruoyu's team are also tested for a long time, except for Zhu Ying and Ah Ming, the other humans and creatures are all stable, and the eldest lady even said that they can't meet anyway, or we just have a rest, I just have to do some experiments......
This time, Ruoyu ignored the eldest lady and chose to move on, he didn't want the distance between him and the other teams to get bigger and bigger.
Completely different from the empty terrain before crossing the river, the terrain here has become extremely complex and winding, and countless stone walls that go straight up and down are separated by narrow passages that twist and turn, as if an endless labyrinth, in fact, Shi Ruoyu has only walked for more than half an hour before his forehead is covered with sweat, the reason is very simple, he has completely lost his way!
And it's not that he is lost, but that the whole team is dizzy! In this weird space, even Wang Lina, a flying ability, is helpless, and the only hope is the kid who is lying on the ground and listening desperately to the movement!
The others took the opportunity to sit down and take a quick rest, eat some dry food and drink some water, and replenish their energy, while Xiao Wanqing raced against time to take the corpse of the giant crocodile from Liu Xi and began to study it...... Chen Xiaohui took the initiative to go over and be her assistant.
It is said that Comrade Liu Xi faithfully fulfilled the task assigned by Shi Ruoyu, and did not throw away this huge burden along the way.
Shi Ruoyu didn't bother to care about the eldest lady's scientific research, he looked at Ah Ming with a nervous face, and it took nearly twenty minutes before the kid stood up with a confused face, and then pointed to the right front and muttered: "I'm sure there are people in that direction, but the question is how do we get there?!" ”
Shi Ruoyu understood what he meant, at this moment, there were all kinds of winding roads near their location, and they were not flat ground, even if they knew the direction, they didn't know how to get around.
He took a deep breath and continued to ask, "Can you tell who it is?" Provisional Government Army? A team of wanted criminals? Wanderers? Or our allies? ”
Ah Ming shook his head in a rare honest look and said, "I really don't know about this, but I can be sure of one thing......"
Shi Ruoyu's eyes lit up, and he heard Ah Ming continue: "It doesn't matter who those guys are, but I'm sure they're fighting!" And it's a very fierce battle!! ”
Shi Ruoyu's breathing suddenly became heavy, and he glanced at Xia Yingying, who also looked stern, and said, "Officer Xia, we must do our best to find a way out!" ”
Xia Yingying was about to say something, when Xiao Wanqing, who was suddenly undergoing surgery, raised her head and said with a mocking look: "A group of comics, but the route is more complicated!" Stupid to death, time is like rain! Don't you have that thread?! Wouldn't it be nice if you used this thin thread to tie up any other tease and let him explore the way! If you go the wrong way, just follow your thin line and come back, at least you won't lose it! It's a big deal, try a few times and always find a way out! ”
Shi Ruoyu suddenly realized, the eldest lady's reminder is right! Yu Yerong also said excitedly: "That's right, but if it rains, it's too dangerous for one person, at least arrange a small team to explore the way!" ”
Soon the pathfinder team was formed, and Shi Ruoyu wanted to go himself, but unfortunately he was the 'core component' of this plan and couldn't leave the stronghold where they were at the moment, so Yu Yerong could only lead the team, and there were three team members, namely Ren Guobin, Tang Siran, and mutant wolf dog!
Yu Yerong is calm and composed, she is the best substitute for the captain in Shi Ruoyu's absence, and at the same time, her own combat effectiveness is not weak, so it is very suitable to lead this team.
chose Ren Guobin because his pile of scrap copper and rotten iron can attack and defend, and can also attack from a distance, and if it is used flexibly, it has unique features in exploring the road.
As one of the zombies, the mutant wolf dog has an endless body, which is an important combat force, and at the same time, it also has a dog's sensitive sense of smell, which is also an important skill for pathfinding.
Tang Siran's combat power has improved very rapidly, and the last few times Ruoyu has fought with her, she has felt a lot of pressure, so bringing her can greatly enhance the combat power of the pathfinder team, and at the same time, her shadow ability also has a certain pathfinding function.
The four of them were preparing their luggage to leave, and the other companions who stayed in place continued to rest, of course, except for a few people, such as Zhu Ying and Chen Xiaohui were working as the eldest lady's helpers, the three of them were busy dissecting the crocodile, and Ah Ming was rarely dedicated to lying on the ground and continuing to listen.
Just when Shi Ruoyu was about to say goodbye to Yu Yerong and take care of her, suddenly Ah Ming jumped up suddenly and shouted: "Defeated!" The team that Lao Tzu just heard about was defeated! A lot of people died!! ”
Shi Ruoyu couldn't help but say, "What is it that is fighting them?" Other humans? Like the Provisional Government Army and the wanted man fighting?! ”
Ah Ming shook his head vigorously and said seriously: "No, absolutely not, the opponent's voice, Lao Tzu has never heard it before!! (To be continued......)
