Today's weather is not very good, it is already afternoon, but the sky is still overcast, and it looks like it is going to rain. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Now Lin Zihan and their team have reached six people.
According to the map provided by Yunrou, they can directly find the right path and will not waste time because they get lost.
And because of the strength of the team, they can directly kill the mutant creatures that they encounter along the way that are not very numerous.
Since yesterday, they've killed three waves of mutant insects, even though they're all the lowest F-class creatures.
But still bring them objective experience and loot.
The coins dropped by insects after death were divided equally among several adults.
Momo asked why she didn't have it after seeing it at first, but fortunately, after Lin Zihan gave her two copper coins, she didn't make trouble.
With a satisfied face, he played with the coin.
Only one piece of equipment dropped was an F-level knife, because Yun Rou and the others joined Lin Zihan's team, so now everyone defaults to Lin Zihan as the captain of the team, and since this is the case, Lin Zihan does not shirk it.
The knife was assigned to Yun Rou, because she is a priest and has a great effect on the team, and it is safer to have an attack equipment with her.
Yun Rou didn't expect Lin Zihan to assign the equipment to herself, she thought that the first thing he considered was already his own people, thinking of this, Yun Rou's eyes became brighter when she looked at Lin Zihan.
It seems that Lin Zihan's evaluation in her heart is a little higher.
Before evening, the sky began to rain lightly, and Lin Zihan and his party could only hide in a huge tree hole, Lin Zihan stood in the shade of the tree hole and frowned at the dripping rain.
"What's wrong," Yun Rou walked out from behind.
"I originally thought it would only be a shower, but I didn't expect it to be such a continuous light rain, it looks like it could take a long time" Lin Zihan looked at the sky, as if he was thinking about when the rain would stop, following his gaze, Yun Rou also looked at the sky, "Yes, I hated rain, but I didn't expect it to be this musty light rain" Yes, this light rain is falling continuously, and it used to be possible for a week in a row, but I don't know how long this rain will fall today.
"I don't know if it will stop tomorrow morning" Yun Rou rubbed her temples, as if she was also confused by the weather.
Lin Zihan turned around and returned to the tree hollow, and then said lightly, "Maybe" and "What?" Yun Rou was obviously not sure that she heard clearly.
looked at Lin Zihan's distant back with a puzzled expression.
At night, when the rain was heavier, Lin Zihan and his party hid in the tree hole together, and everyone took out the bedding and blankets they brought to nest together.
Because of the rain, the temperature dropped very low at night.
They gathered some firewood nearby, piled it in the center of the tree hole, and lit a bonfire.
The flames warmed the crowd and soothed the people who had been walking in the woods for many days.
Lin Ziyi and Yun Rou sat together on the futon and discussed the use of magic and spiritual power.
Liao Mengmeng was already lying on the quilt next to Yun Rou and fell asleep.
Fang Jianguo sat by the bonfire and put in a piece of firewood from time to time, Xiao Momo sat in his arms and fell asleep, but every time she lowered her head, she immediately raised it again, it seemed that the little guy didn't want to go to bed too early.
Fang Jianguo looked up at Lin Zihan.
He was sitting at the root of a tree near the entrance to the cave, wiping his bow and arrows.
Looking outside the cave from time to time, I don't know what he's thinking.
Seeing that the little guy in his arms was about to fall asleep, Fang Jianguo picked her up and gently handed it to Lin Ziyi.
Lin Ziyi and Yun Rou took the child and nodded at Fang Jianguo, and whispered, "Momo is asleep, leave it to us, Uncle Fang, you should rest early," and then put Momo in the middle of their quilt and gently covered her with the quilt.
Fang Jianguo also walked aside after seeing Momo being settled, took the quilt that Lin Ziyi had just handed him and lay down to rest.
Seeing that everyone was lying down and resting one after another, Lin Zihan also stood up and sat by the bonfire.
Because Fang Jianguo also went to rest, he could only come to the work of adding firewood.
Because of the rain, the air was filled with dampness.
And as time goes by, the temperature is getting lower and lower, although they bring a few quilts, but after all, there is a child in the team, and even Liao Mengmeng is still a minor junior high school student.
If someone in the team gets sick and has a cold, it will definitely slow them down. In order to ensure that the temperature is not too low, you can only add firewood all the time, and you can't let the bonfire go out.
------- didn't say anything all night-----
In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone on Lin Zihan's face, Lin Zihan slowly opened his eyes, got up, and rubbed his eyes.
I stayed up until the middle of the night, and when the rain stopped, I fell asleep.
He looked at the blanket he was wearing, and then looked around the hollow.
The bonfire has been extinguished, and the place where everyone slept last night has been tidied up.
It seems that everyone has already gotten up, but they still fell asleep at the end, and I don't know when I woke up now.
At this time, Lin Ziyi happened to walk in, "Zihan, you have woken up, we saw that you were still sleeping in the morning, and we didn't wake you up, wait for you to clean up, and we will go on the road after breakfast" In fact, when they woke up in the morning, they also saw that Lin Zihan had been adding firewood to everyone last night, so they didn't wake him up very tacitly, in order to make him sleep better, everyone took the two children to play outside, afraid that the two children would wake him up because of play.
"Well, it's okay, let's go on the road now, you can eat breakfast on the road" Lin Zihan knew that he was getting up late and couldn't delay the speed of the team.
Immediately got up, put away the blanket and handed it to Lin Ziyi, and then went out to gather everyone and prepare to go.
Lin Ziyi took the blanket handed over by Lin Zihan and put it directly in the backpack, didn't say anything, and followed him to everyone.
----------------
Because after the rain, the air became exceptionally fresh, walking on the path that was still a little muddy, Yun Rou took the map and compared, "The front is the center of the forest, and after passing through, you can continue north to reach Rigi Town" said and put the map in her backpack.
"In that case, let's hurry up and try to get through the center today. ā
Hearing this, Lin Zihan opened the bushes in front and led everyone forward.
Well. After everyone responded, they also followed Lin Zihan to the center of the forest.
Because Momo was still young, she couldn't walk a few days ago, and then she was put around her neck by Fang Jianguo.
Liao Mengmeng looked at Momo sitting on Fang Jianguo's neck with envy.
After walking a distance, Lin Zihan in front suddenly made a careful gesture, and then squatted down, and everyone quickly followed and squatted down, and then slowly stepped forward to ask Lin Zihan what he found.
"Look at the branch of the tree in front of you, look carefully," Lin Zihan pointed to a big tree not far ahead.
Following the direction he pointed, everyone looked at it, and at first they saw only a plain tree, but after a closer look, they found that the branch was not a leaf at all, but a cyan python with a color similar to a leaf! Because it was the same color as the surrounding leaves, it would be impossible to find out that there was such a huge killer hidden in this tree if you didn't look closely.
Everyone sighed at Lin Zihan's observation, and at the same time, they were also glad that they could escape the catastrophe.
If they hadn't spotted the cyan python, it would have taken the opportunity to pounce on them and take them by surprise when they got under the tree where it was.
