Chapter 074: The Grove (2)

It was getting dark, and it was expected that they would be able to leave the woods in the morning, and after walking for a day, they could not see the end, and everyone's mood began to become agitated.

"Bai Zhi, it is possible that some small animal jumped down and crushed it, or it is possible. ”

"Yes, we've been walking in the direction of the compass, how could this be broken by you?"

Bai Zhi wasn't sure, she just remembered that she had broken a branch casually, and the height was exactly where she raised her hand, but she wasn't sure if it was the branch in front of her.

"Maybe I'm a little nervous," Bai Zhi said, "should we stop and rest, or keep walking." ”

"It's still early, keep going, and try to get out of the grove before dark, it's not safe to spend the night. ”

Night falls.

Everyone was tired, and there was no road in the jungle, and the humidity was very heavy at night, and Bai Zhi felt that her legs were wet and uncomfortable.

It was pitch black all around, and the body would be unbearable if you walked any longer, so everyone decided to stop and rest for one night before walking.

"There's a lot of space over there, let's make a fire there to keep warm."

Martina went to set up the tent in a muffled voice, and Bai Zhi pulled Fatuma to help her, "We'll help you." ”

Martina's avoidance of Bai Zhi's hand, took care of herself to pull the line, but did not refuse Fatoumai's help, Bai Zhi bit her lip and didn't say anything, she couldn't do anything about Martina's affairs, and she was even more helpless about Song Yu's affairs.

"Bai Zhi, come here, how about taking a look at the hammock I designed?"

Bai Zhi hurriedly went over, "Yes, get me one here, I'll help you get this first." ”

"Okay," Qin Mu was happy to work with Bai Zhi, "The vines here are too lush, cut more, and we will each make a hammock, which is comfortable and safe." ”

"Have a vision," Bai Zhi happily chopped a bundle of vines, "I'll make a hammock in my room when I get home." ”

The smile on Qin Mu's face immediately collapsed, "Bai Zhi, after this mission is over, will I take you to Paris?"

"Well, I remember Hemingway's quote in 'The Flowing Feast', 'If you were lucky enough to be in Paris when you were young, it will follow you for the rest of your life, no matter where you go in the future.'" Paris is a flowing feast' If you can stay in Paris for a while, your life will be complete. Bai Zhi said with a wistful expression.

"That's it, if you like it, you can stay in Paris forever. ”

"Haha, I don't have the idea of staying there all the time, I just want to live and experience a different environment for a while, just like this time I promised Song Yu, also because I want to have a different life experience. ”

"Bai Zhi, your mentality is really good, you don't have too much utilitarianism, you won't be too demanding about gains and losses, I envy your mentality. ”

Bai Zhi smiled, "You said that I seem to be a person who has no desires, then you are very wrong," Bai Zhi secretly glanced at the other busy companions, approached Qin Mu and said, "I almost went to heaven when I saw the string of numbers in the remuneration column written on the contract, I am very greedy." ”

"Then stay. ”

Bai Zhi shook her head, "I need to find the value of my existence." ”

"Bai Zhi, in fact, you are very good, each of us has been indispensable since we got together, you don't compare your disadvantages with the advantages of others. ”

"I know," Bai Zhi smiled brightly, "Of course I'm excellent, okay, let's not talk about this topic, will this be a little higher." ”

"It's safe to be high," Qin Mu looked at his busy companions and said loudly: "I suggest that everyone's hammocks be as close as possible and taller, if you don't want to sleep in a hammock, you can do it in the middle." ”

There was no problem with everyone, except that Basel slept in the middle, covered with thick leaves, and slept next to the campfire, and everyone else made hammocks out of vines.

"Bai Zhi," Song Yu saw Bai Zhi lying in a hammock and walked over, "Why don't you sleep in a tent, no matter how you say that the tent is better than outside, the dew is too much this night." ”

Bai Zhi glanced sideways, Martina was already in the tent, and Fatuma was making her grass nest beside her, "Let Fatuma sleep in the tent with Martina." ”

"Between you?" Song Yu frowned, this team is difficult to lead.

"Whew......"

Suddenly, there was a wolf howl, which startled everyone, and they each pulled out their guns to look around.

Bai Zhi jumped out of the hammock and stayed in the "base camp" with Fatumah and Bassel to prevent other animals from invading.

Fatuma looked around vigilantly with her sharpened stick, the slightest hint of wind triggering her nerves.

"Don't worry, animals are afraid of fire, and they don't dare to approach it when they see a fire here. ”

The people who went out to check soon returned, and the night was heavy, and the strange jungle was full of too many dangers, and everyone did not go far.

"Sprinkle some realgar around to prevent snakes. ”

"I'm coming, I'm coming," Bai Zhi heard the snake's nervousness, and the wound on her foot and neck had a dull pain, "Realgar is here." ”

Bai Zhi sprinkled around the trees where they had built their hammocks, including the surroundings of the tents and the trunks of the trees that supported their hammocks, all of which were coated with realgar powder, "It should be fine." ”

"Haha, Bai Zhi, don't worry, with you here, even pythons don't dare to approach. ”

"Don't scare me. ”

"You have been bitten by a snake for ten years and are afraid of the well rope, a typical psychological effect. ”

"I won't tell you, I'm going to sleep. ”

Bai Zhi jumped on the hammock and fell asleep, and the sound of all kinds of animals was noisy all night, just like following the zoo, fortunately there were no animals to disturb them.

Early in the morning, he was weak and itchy, except for Fatuma and Martina, everyone else had small red dots on their necks, legs, and arms, and they were not acne, as if they were randomly lit with a paintbrush.

Bai Zhi couldn't help but scratch with her hand, and the hot sting pain in the place where she was scratched, "Have we been bitten by something?"

"It's supposed to be allergies, maybe there's something wrong with the rattan we sleep on. Song Yu immediately took out the medicine and distributed it to everyone.

Bai Zhi looked at the red spots on her arm carefully, there was no bite at all, it was allergies, "Let's go quickly." ”

Suddenly, a gray, wild alligator less than three feet long stared at them, circled around a tree near them, and then stared at them again.

Fatumai immediately picked up the sharp branch and prepared to stab it, but Song Yu immediately pulled her wrist, "Don't be impulsive. ”

"She's so small, I can do it. ”

"Wait, this is a wild alligator, a rare animal, don't hurt it, let's get around. Song Yu pointed to the branch next to him, "Spare it from here." ”

Fatuma looked at everyone incomprehensibly, but did not ask any more questions, but as they made a detour to the side, the little fellow crossed directly to intercept their path.

"What should I do?"

"Knock on a branch to scare it, and if it doesn't work, use a tranquilizer gun. ”

Sure enough, after only two knocks, the Yangtze crocodile burrowed into the dense forest and disappeared.

"I really didn't expect to see such a rare animal here. ”

"I'm a little scared. ”

"They look at us and they're afraid. ”

Everyone walked forward in the small talk, and the red spots on their bodies gradually faded, and they were not so itchy, which seemed to be allergies.

"This ......," Bai Zhi pointed to a branch in the bush that she had deliberately inserted upside down, "I inserted this branch." ”

A morning and back to square one?
