Chapter 159: Intensive Training 7
"It's late at night, and I think we'll have to rest for a while and we'll set off at dawn in the morning. Wells felt that if they wanted to not miss their trip the next day, they had to rest now. Because what happened to them today was too weird, Wells proposed to take turns to rest, and seeing that Su Rui's eyes were about to be closed, he asked Su Rui and Mario to rest first, while he sat next to him, vigilantly observing everything around him.
Perhaps because they were too tired during the day, Suri and Mario soon fell asleep. They fell asleep and never woke up until dawn the next day, when Su Rui was awakened by a shrill bird's call. Su Rui opened her sleepy eyes and found Wells leaning against a large tree, and he was also asleep. Su Rui was woken up by a shrill bird's call, so she immediately stood up, shook Wells awake, and looked around vigilantly.
"Hurry up, it's dawn now, I just heard a shrill birdsong, and I don't think we should stay here any longer. Su Rui said eagerly, Wells immediately woke up, originally he proposed to keep vigil, but he didn't know when he fell asleep. This made Wells feel very unhappy, and felt that he was really too careless.
"It's okay, we were all so tired yesterday, but luckily nothing happened yesterday. Su Rui saw that Wells was so upset, and hurriedly comforted her. Mario also woke up when he heard the two of them talking, and his first reaction when he woke up was to check on the little animal. Realizing that the critter was still there, Mario let out a long breath.
"Good morning, I'm sorry I didn't wake up yesterday to keep a vigil for you. Mario said apologetically, but didn't say anything when he saw that Wells looked like he had just woken up. The things they had eaten yesterday had already been digested, and they soon felt very hungry when they got up.
Sensing his hunger, Mario glanced at the little guy in the cage with an impure gaze. The little guy seemed to be able to read the meaning in Mario's eyes, and he subconsciously shrank his body, and then looked at Su Rui with a very pitiful gaze.
Su Rui hadn't recovered from last night's panic, and when she saw the little guy looking at her pitifully, she quickly avoided the other party's gaze and looked away. Finally, Wells smiled and patted the cage and said:
"Don't worry, we won't eat you, but you have to be obedient, and if you can, you'd better tell us what your purpose is with us, or who instructed you to do so. Wells looked at the little guy with burning eyes, and when the little guy heard Wells say that they wouldn't eat themselves, he began to pretend to be stupid. Pretending that he didn't understand what Wells was saying, he lay down in the cage and combed his hair.
Su Rui shrugged her shoulders and smiled helplessly at Wells, indicating that she was helpless.
It was not too early now, and the three of them continued to walk forward despite their hunger. It wasn't long before the little guy in the cage started squeaking and was still scratching something towards Mario.
"Do you want to show us the way? Nod if yes, shake your head if not. Mario said to the little guy in the cage, only to see the little guy nod decisively. Seeing this little guy so human, Wells on the side couldn't help laughing. Just now, I pretended not to understand my own words, and now I take the initiative to guide them in the direction. Although Wells had some doubts in his heart, he was willing to believe this little guy for now.
"Do you want us to go in this direction?" asked Mario, pointing in the direction to the left, seeing the little guy nod again, Mario looked at Wells inquiringly. Mario doesn't look like he's the biggest in the world, but when it comes to critical moments, he still asks Wells for his opinion.
"We didn't have a precise direction in the first place, and now that this little guy is showing us the way, we might as well give it a try. If this little creature dares to deceive us, I can smash it with one palm. With that, Wells also made an easy gesture to smash the stone.
He saw a palm-sized stone, and Wells could smash it effortlessly. When the little guy saw it, he suddenly locked his body backwards, and Su Rui saw from a distance that the little guy's body was trembling, and his heart was suddenly stunned.
"The little creature looks scared, and since it shows us the way, let's not scare it for the time being, believing that it already knows how good we are. Su Rui looked away and said lightly.
The little fellow told them to go east, and if Wells remembered correctly, Mesevo and his party were heading east.
"If we keep going east, we might run into Mesevo. "Mark is walking with Mesefu, and Mario is actually looking forward to meeting his brother on this mission. If the two groups of them act together, the safety factor will be much higher.
After all, Mario still has some fear in his heart, but he is very good at disguising his heart so that others can't see his fear.
"If that's the case, we're going to have to pick things up. Because they've been walking in this direction for most of the day, we have to be much faster than them if we want to catch up with them. Wells said that Mesevo had been heading east since noon yesterday, and if they wanted to catch up with each other, they really had to speed up.
Su Rui was very aware of the changes around her, and she noticed that the terrain seemed to be getting lower and lower as she walked towards the east. If they don't look closely, such a subtle change will not be noticed.
"Do you feel that when we go east, it seems to be easier? We're going downhill now, and even though the terrain isn't very downhill, I can still feel that we're going downhill. Su Rui told Wells how she felt, and Wells frowned. Because he and Su Rui feel the same way, only Mario of the three doesn't feel anything. If it weren't for Su Rui and Wells telling him, he wouldn't have felt any change in the path under his feet.
Wells doesn't seem to like to talk much when he walks, and whenever Suri notices something, Suri will tell Wells in time.
