299 First Night One
readx;? After returning to the camp, the two did not tell the others what had just happened, in case they were worried. After a hasty dinner www.biquge.info the exhausted people chose to rest, and after discussion, it was decided that Dennis and Ian would keep the first half of the night and the second half of the night respectively.
At night, the temperature in the jungle dropped dramatically, and everyone leaned over the campfire to warm up.
After a day of tossing, everyone was tired, and Ian was no exception. But when he lay down, he couldn't sleep, and even if he couldn't, his mind was full of legends about the Elven Heart that Katrina had told him. Although reason tells Ian that the legend is not credible, he still wants to gamble.
The Messiah said she didn't want to lie in a crystal coffin forever. Ian also doesn't want her to sleep forever, so the Elven Heart is probably the only thing that can change this fate.
Ian didn't know how long he had been thinking about it before he fell asleep in the cool breeze of the night.
Ian felt that he didn't have anyone for long, and was woken up by Dennis. He endured the sleepiness, rubbed his eyes, turned over and sat up: "Is it my vigil?"
"Not yet, but something seems to have happened. ”
Something is wrong?
Ian's tiredness was swept away: "What's the matter?"
"Over there. Dennis pointed in one direction, "There's a voice over there." ”
Sound?
Ian pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and found that it was really, squirming, and it made people's hairs stand on end. Then it occurred to him that the direction Dennis was pointing in seemed to be the location of the stream. Thinking of this, a terrifying conjecture subconsciously appeared in his mind.
Could it be that the snake has come back to life?
No, no, no, no, the snake's seven inches were pierced by Dennis's sword, what could it bring to life? Ian didn't know what was going on in his head, why he had such a ridiculous conjecture.
"Shall we go and have a look?" asked Ian.
"I think it's better to check it out. Dennis replied, "So I called you up, and you kept vigil here, and I went over." ”
"No, I can't. Ian decisively refused, "There are not many people in the team, and if something happens, it will be troublesome, and if you want to go, you have to go with the two of us." ”
"But there has to be a vigil, and although Nicole has set a trap around here, it is not possible to keep a vigil without anyone. ”
Nicole is already very tired from setting traps and preparing dinner tonight, and Colby must not be able to count on it, so the only option seems to be two members of the law enforcement team.
"Well, maybe I could keep a vigil. ”
A reluctant voice reached the ears of the two men, and they looked up to see that Harry, a student of Colby, had sat up at some point, holding his right hand.
Ian glanced at Dennis, who also looked at him and didn't speak, obviously wanting Ian to make his own decisions. Actually, Ian didn't really want Harry to keep a vigil, because he might be the weakest person on the team besides his teacher Colby, but if it was a vigil, it didn't seem to matter much if he was weak or not.
And he is also a disciple of Colby, so he is more familiar with the dense forest. And the two people of the law enforcement team may not have as much insight into the jungle as he is.
Thinking of this, Ian nodded: "Okay, then you can keep vigil." But he and I won't be going for long, and we'll be back soon. You remember, as soon as there's an accident, wake everyone up, oh, wake up the big guy first. ”
Ian was referring to Arris.
Harry nodded, then unpacked his bag and fumbled for something. Soon, he pulled out a silver crossbow arrow under the puzzled gazes of Ian and Dennis.
"Don't worry, I'll protect them. Harry said.
Seeing this scene, Ian was not only a little speechless, but he also had a special silver cross crossbow made in the hall, and he was not too heavy. But when you think about the fact that you are still carrying the Musk Moon Goddess, it is much heavier than the Silver Cross.
"It's better if you can shoot an arrow, but when something happens, you still have to wake everyone up as soon as possible. ”
"I understand. ”
After instructing Harry, Ian and Dennis packed their things and hit the road. Dennis lit his torch and took his sword, while Ian thought about it for a moment and decided not to take the guard with him, but followed Dennis with the dagger that Ludo had given him.
The dense forest at night was still a little terrifying, and those tall trees seemed to turn into the most ferocious demons in the firelight, waving their teeth and claws at the two people who broke into the forest. Fortunately, Ian has also been to many places in the past year or so, and if he was still himself in Blackstone City, he would probably be scared to move.
The two of them walked for about ten minutes before they heard the sound of a babbling stream. After walking for a while, they returned to the stream where they had been this evening, and saw the moonlight that they had not seen for a long time. The moonlight is shining on the stream, and it looks like it is shining with silver light, which is very beautiful.
But the two of them didn't come here to enjoy the scenery. They walked straight to the stream, and Dennis held up his torches to try to shine as far as he could. Then, both of them did not look very good.
Because there was nothing in the stream, the body of the huge python had disappeared without a trace.
"What's going on, are you sure it's here?" Ian asked, "Did we just go a little off the rails in the woods?"
"It's possible, but"
Dennis looked around, but he didn't find the body of the python: "We can't have gone so far, that snake should be around here." ”
Ian took a deep breath: "Don't get entangled, I also think it's unlikely that we will go wrong, then there is only one situation, that python, disappeared." ”
Instead of answering immediately, Dennis slowly leaned down to let the fire shine under his feet, and he reached out to grope for something on the damp dirt.
"Something is wrong. Dennis said suddenly.
"Of course it's wrong, a dead snake at the end of the day, how can you say that it's gone. ”
"No, you come and see. Dennis came to a conclusion that he himself found hard to believe, "The snake seems to have gone on its own." ”
Ian was stunned, how could it go on its own?
So he hurriedly crouched down, following Dennis's example, carefully observing the dirt under his feet, and soon, to his horror, found that Dennis's conclusion did not seem to be wrong.
For at their feet, there was a drag mark that was not shallow, spreading from the edge of the stream all the way into the dense forest. This is the trace of a snake sliding on the muddy ground, there can be no mistake, the snake crawled back into the jungle from the stream after being killed by Dennis?!
How can it be!
