Chapter 6: Dark Shadows

"I think we're almost out of this swamp. ”

As soon as these words sounded, everyone's numb eyes immediately had a hint of brilliance, and they all looked at Luo Fu expectantly. Even Fan Xiaoye, who was still weak just now, let go of Lu Xiu, jumped next to Luo Fu at once, and shouted: "Luo Fu, are we really going out soon? How do you know? Tell me quickly! Tell me about it!"

Luo Fu was not impatient, took out the small grass in his hand with a smile, pointed at it and asked, "Look, what is different about this aquatic grass?"

"Uh! different places, except for the strange color, there is nothing different?" Fan Xiaoye grabbed his head and said in a daze.

"I see!"

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded, Lu Xiu turned his head, and saw the woman named Luo Xi staring at the water grass in Luo Fu's hand, with a sudden expression.

"The aquatic plants that normally grow on the edge of the water are supposed to be green, but the aquatic plants we saw before are all pitch black, probably because of the influence of this swamp or that monster! And this aquatic grass is half green and half black, which proves that we are about to get out of this swamp!" the woman Luo Xi pointed to the water grass in Luo Fu's hand and said slowly.

"Yes, the weeds have started to turn green, which means that we are gradually getting out of this swamp, and I think we can go out after a little more walking. Luofu added.

"I see, in that case, we will be able to get out of here in no time. ”

After listening to Luo Fu and the woman Luo Xi's explanation, everyone looked at the surrounding water plants with a happy face. Seeing that it was indeed half green and half black, his eyes gradually brightened, and he cheered up again and prepared to continue on the road.

"Okay, let's go!"

Without any further delay, Luofu greeted everyone and set off again.

"You're observant. ”

On the way, Lu Xiu walked up to the woman named Luo Xi and said to her. It's not that Lu Xiu wants to talk to Luo Xi, although she does look good. It's just that seeing this woman first acting calm, and now observing so carefully, I can't help but be a little curious about her.

"It's nothing, your friend reminded me. ”

Luo Xi looked ahead and said lightly, her expression cold.

"Uh......"

Seeing Luo Xi so indifferent, Lu Xiu, who had eaten a turtle, touched his nose and stopped talking.

Everyone marched again for half an hour, and along the way, everyone consciously observed the grass on the ground. Sure enough, by now, there were no more swamps and black aquatic plants. The most important thing is that in the middle of the bushes, there are two large trees with the thickness of a bowl's mouth, and some green fruits are hanging on the trees, which make people can't help but relish.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the fruits, and their mouths kept swallowing saliva. You know, everyone here hasn't eaten for at least a day, and after nearly four hours of travel, they're now hungry with their chests and backs. Even Lu Xiu was already hungry an hour ago, and he completely relied on perseverance to persevere. The most exaggerated is Fan Xiaoye, he was already hungry before crossing the swamp, and after a few hours of trekking, Lu Xiu thought that he was so hungry that he lost consciousness. Now when I see those fruits, my small eyes are red, and my mouth is still panting, just like a pervert seeing a beautiful woman.

"Goo-toot!"

Fan Xiaoye swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, and then couldn't help but pounce on the fruit tree. Seeing Fan Xiaoye's movements, everyone was stunned at first, and then rushed forward frantically, eager to have two more legs!

Lu Xiu and Luo Fu were also unable to calm down, and rushed towards the fruit tree regardless of their image, regardless of the taste of the fruit, whether it was poisonous or not, they grabbed it with their big hands, and several fist-sized green fruits fell into their hands, and then hurriedly threw them into their mouths and ate them in a gulp. After a few fruits, I didn't even taste the taste, but I felt that my empty stomach was suddenly a little full, and the feeling of hunger disappeared a lot. Fortunately, there was enough fruit in this area, and everyone ate five or six of them, so that their stomachs were filled.

After eating, everyone lay down on the ground, caressing their stomachs, and there was a rare satisfied smile on their faces. Among them, Hao Dong, who had been a soldier, and Qian Hao, a rich man, even shouted. This is the joy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, and it is difficult to understand their mood at this time without experiencing these things personally, but five or six unknown wild fruits are satisfying.

Lu Xiu lay on the grass leisurely, looking at the still dim sky, and at this time he actually felt that it had become cute.

Luo Fu seemed to be tired and unbearable, put his hands behind his head, closed his eyes and rested.

"Whew!"

There was a snoring sound behind him, and he didn't need to look at Lu Xiu to already know that it was Fan Xiaoye.

Gradually, putting aside his worries, Lu Xiu felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he fell asleep after a while.

In the vast wilderness, nine people slept on the ground, silent.

Suddenly, a person slowly sat up and opened his eyes, and when he looked closely, there were no pupils in his eyes, it was pitch black, and a blood-colored light flashed in his eyes, and the man looked at the sleeping people, and the corners of his mouth hooked a faint smile. After a moment, the man lay down again, no longer moving. There was silence all around.

The world seems to be forever so dark, with no sunrise and sunset, no moon and moonlight, and the concept of time becomes blurred here.

I don't know how long it took, but Lu Xiu, who had slept well, woke up. Got up from the grass, stretched comfortably, and twisted his stiff neck slightly, Lu Xiu felt that this was the best sleep he had, the fatigue of his whole body had disappeared, but the leg muscles were still a little sore, this was the sequelae left by the long journey, and it was estimated that it would take a few days to return to normal.

"Awake?"

From behind came the voice of Luofu.

"Hmm!"

Lu Xiu turned around and saw Luo Fu leaning on a fruit tree, holding a green fruit in his left hand and eating it slowly.

"I must be hungry again when I wake up, right?"

As he spoke, Luo Fu took out a green fruit from his body and threw it at Lu Xiu.

"Oh! I didn't think you still had this fruit. Taking the fruit, Lu Xiu gently wiped it on his body and said to Luo Fu.

"Hehe! I was lucky enough to grab two more. Luo Fu smiled and said lightly.

"Click!"

Taking a bite of the cyan fruit in his hand, Lu Xiu walked towards Luofu.

"What's next?"

Lu Xiu leaned against another tree, looked in the direction of the swamp, and asked Luo Fu.

"I had no choice but to move forward. Luo Fu shook his head and said.

"Heh, you have always been calm and calm, and you can always find the direction as soon as possible, I can't imagine that even you can't do it!"

Lu Xiu shook his head and laughed, and said with a smile to Luo Fu.

"Heh, aren't you also strong, as if nothing can defeat you?" Luo Fu also replied with a smile.

"Yes, I just don't want me to lose my way! After my parents died, I kept telling myself: you are the only one, you must live strongly, no matter what happens in the future. Lu Xiu thought of his life over the years, as if he was talking to himself.

"Oh, then I'm a little better than you, and I have a sister!" Luo Fu said as he casually played with a branch in one hand and looked at Lu Xiu.

"Then live for her!"

Lu Xiu understood what Luo Fu meant, and he couldn't imagine that he was in the same situation as himself.

"Yes. ”

Luo Fu looked into the distance, and a glimmer of determination flashed in his eyes!

"Then I'll live for myself!"

Lu Xiu also looked into the distance and said silently in his heart.

The two didn't say anything more, just leaned quietly against the tree and pretended to sleep, waiting for the others to wake up.

......

"Hmm! I slept well!"

After a long time, the group began to wake up one after another, all muttering to themselves in satisfaction.

"Xiao Ye! Fan Xiao Ye! Wake up!"

Seeing that everyone was awake, Fan Xiaoye was still asleep there alone, so Lu Xiu had to walk over and wake him up.

Who knew that even after screaming a few times, Fan Xiaoye didn't react at all, Lu Xiu couldn't help but be speechless again, and he didn't know how many times he had been speechless to Fan Xiaoye!

"Fatty, Xiangliu is here, get up!"

Lu Xiu yelled and kicked Fan Xiaoye at the same time.

"Xiangliu, what is it?" muttered Fan Xiaoye in his sleep.

"Ahh Don't eat me!"

Fan Xiaoye on the ground finally understood what Lu Xiu meant, and jumped up from the ground at once, shouting exaggeratedly while holding his head and running in the direction of the fruit tree.

"Xiao Ye, you finally woke up, we have been waiting for you for half an hour. ”

Luo Fu walked over and stopped Fan Xiaoye and said to him.

"Ahh

Fan Xiaoye was still at a loss, looking around at Xiangliu's traces.

"What Xiangliu, lied to you, who told you not to wake up. ”

Lu Xiu walked over and spread his hands to Fan Xiaoye, and said lightly.

"Oh! It was fake! It scared me to death!"

When Fan Xiaoye heard that Lu Xiu had lied to him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and kept touching his chest with his hand.

"Alright, we're about to set off again, let's get ready!"

Luo Fu looked at Fan Xiaoye and said to him.

"Oh! I know, right away, I'll go and explain it. ”

After speaking, Fan Xiaoye immediately jumped and ran to a bush not far away. Then there was a sound of "bang-la-la" water release.

"Haha! This guy is quite arrogant!"

Hao Dong, who woke up on the side, saw this scene and laughed.

Lu Xiu couldn't help but hide his face, and Luo Fu couldn't help but laugh and cry.

When Fan Xiaoye came back, Luo Fu said, "Only by moving forward can we hope to figure out all this, so let's go!"

Everyone nodded in agreement and followed Luo Fu and Lu Xiu.

Walking forward for a while, Lu Xiu saw Fan Xiaoye beside him groping around his body with an anxious expression, as if he had lost something.

"What's wrong, Xiao Ye?" Lu Xiu asked.

Fan Xiaoye said with some embarrassment: "There was still a green fruit left before, and it may have been lost on the grass." No, I'll have to go back and pick it up. ”

“......”

"Forget it, I'd better go, lest something happen to you and lose us!"

Lu Xiu stroked his forehead and said helplessly.

"Hehe! Thank you, Brother Xiu!" Fan Xiaoye said to Lu Xiu with a happy face when he heard this.

"It's fine!"

Lu Xiu replied and ran back.

After a while, Lu Xiu returned to the previous place, the grass was a little empty, and Lu Xiu suddenly saw a green fruit in the sparse grass. I walked over and picked it up, and was about to go back. Suddenly, he found that the grass on the grass not far away had actually turned black, just like those aquatic plants in the swamp before! Lu Xiu's pupils shrank, and from a distance, the blackened grass happened to be a figure!

Lu Xiu turned around and left quickly, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes that could not be concealed as he left.
