Chapter 442: Whistling Kite

"Do you feel that the temperature around you is getting higher and higher, and now it is more than 30 degrees!" Shen Feng said to the three people beside him.

Yue Hengyi looked up at the sky, found the position of the sun, frowned and said, "Isn't it noon?" The sun is right above us, the sun is shining directly on the ground, and it's normal for the temperature to be a little hot, isn't it? ”

"No, don't forget, it was raining heavily yesterday, there is so much moisture in the mountains, this water has not evaporated, and the temperature will not be so high!" Shen Feng said solemnly.

Yue Hengyi thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, I'll go explore the road and see if there's anything ahead, if it's not dangerous, we'll go back immediately." ”

Shen Feng also planned to agree with Yue Hengyi's suggestion, when facing unknown dangers, he must not act recklessly, otherwise, once he encounters danger, everyone will not be able to escape!

However, Slotke suddenly said: "Mountain fire, this is mountain fire, let's run!" ”

"Wildfires? How is it possible, just after the rainstorm, the wildfire broke out immediately, this is unreasonable! Shen Feng didn't believe that it was a wildfire.

Slotke hurriedly explained: "I have lived in Australia for more than 50 years, I know this matter best, every time it is winter, there will be bushfires in Australia, once in 20 years, Australia's wildfires are less than millions of kangaroos and koalas, and there are many eucalyptus forests in Australia, and the bark and leaves contain a lot of oil, just a little!" ”

At this moment, Slotke, who is a local, has already spoken, and his credibility is naturally no problem, and Shen Feng also feels that the temperature around him is gradually rising, and if he continues to move forward, he may encounter a mountain fire.

"Go back! Fall back! Shen Feng didn't hesitate and immediately announced the order.

"Brother Feng, if we retreat, the distance we traveled today will be useless, and we will return to the original point!" Yue Hengyi was a little unwilling.

"Life is the most important thing, and when we go back, we can either find a car and cross it through the grasslands in the middle, or we can find a boat and sail to Melbourne and walk through the woods on foot, what if we encounter a real bushfire?" Shen Feng couldn't help but teach Yue Hengyi a lesson, always thinking about going back quickly, but he also had to do this on the premise of ensuring the safety of his life.

Yue Hengyi was helpless, he could only obey Shen Feng's orders, he also knew that he would be very stubborn sometimes, he didn't follow Shen Feng's advice on the island at the beginning, and ate poisonous wild fruits, he couldn't move for half a month, and now is not the time to be stubborn.

Although Yue Hengyi didn't say it, he admitted in his heart that Shen Feng's consideration was more thorough than his own, and it was also the most appropriate way to follow his advice.

Not long after the four of them retreated, there were suddenly bursts of whistling sounds in the mountains and forests, and when they looked in the direction where the sound came from, they could see wild boars, rats and rabbits running wildly in the woods, and monkeys and squirrels were moving in the trees.

"It seems that the wildfires are real, and they are very large, and these wild animals are all starting to flee for their lives, and we can't delay!" Shen Feng hurriedly said.

The intuition of wild animals is more powerful than that of humans at some moments, after all, humans have survived in society for a long time, and many receptors have degenerated, but wild animals need to keep themselves alive in the wild, so their receptors are very keen, they are always observing their surroundings, and once they find an unfavorable situation, they will immediately run away.

Now, seeing the beast tide around him, Shen Feng also knew that the mountain fire must have appeared.

The four of them are also very fortunate that they did not encounter a mountain fire when they were advancing, and most of them will not encounter a mountain fire when they return now.

However, after running two roads along the road, the woods on both sides of the road were all on fire, and I didn't see the fireworks at all when I came over, but I just returned to the wildfire

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

It was set on fire right behind him.

"Holy shit, which bastard is plotting against us? It even lit up our retreat! Shen Feng couldn't help but scold angrily.

Originally, the four of them were thinking about returning the same way, after all, the road when they came was not in danger, so it must be safe when they went back, but now the back road has also been cut off by the wildfire.

Yue Hengyi also felt that it was impossible to start a fire in the mountains and forests for no reason, especially on the way back, suddenly there was a mountain fire blocking the way, maybe there was an enemy secretly setting fire, wanting to use the mountain fire to destroy himself in the forest.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Yue, what should we do now? The mountains are full of fire, or we will dig holes and hide in the ground! Ghost Li suggested to Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi.

Now I don't know how much of the fire is in the forest, and Ghost Li can only come up with an idea, doesn't it say that the soil can be insulated? Wouldn't it be safe to hide underground? Why run for your life in a frenzy?

Shen Feng shook his head lightly and said, "It's impossible, we don't have so much time to dig the cave, besides, hiding in the cave, the oxygen is consumed, we will all be suffocated to death, have you ever heard of a flower chicken?" The production method of calling flower chicken is to wrap it in yellow mud and throw it into the charcoal fire to roast! ”

"What then? Our retreat has now been blocked, and it is impossible to go back the way we came! Ghost Li was still very flustered.

Shen Feng pointed to the guide and said, "Now, we rush in the direction of the sea, according to my speculation, we are now a few kilometers away from the sea, as long as we rush into the sea, the mountain fire will not be able to do anything to us!" ”

After speaking, Shen Feng took the lead in opening the way, and hundreds of wind blades flew out, cutting a passage through the woods in an instant, and the four of them kept running towards the south.

As a result, the speed of the spread of the wildfire is not slow, obviously only saw a small flame one second, and the next second is a huge fire dragon pounced from the woods, where the fire dragon passed, the surrounding trees burned instantly, there are too many eucalyptus trees in Australia, as long as the mountain fire appears, then the woods will be ignited immediately, although the ground is muddy, but under the blazing flame, the water is constantly evaporating, and the black smoke mixed with white smoke in the woods is constantly filling.

Black smoke is billowing out, which means that the branches containing water are burning, and white smoke is thick, which means that a lot of water vapor is evaporating.

Shen Feng didn't dare to turn back, he opened up the road wholeheartedly, heading towards the south, the branches around him were constantly cut off, and he didn't care whether there were poisonous snakes in the dead branches and leaves on the ground, now it was important to escape, the mountain fire had spread behind him.

Once a wildfire occurs, it takes a lot of experience to extinguish it, especially in the forest, where there are trees everywhere, there are combustibles everywhere, and when a fire appears, then a sea of fire will appear.

The trees in the forest are not short of oxygen, and when they burn, the flames soar into the sky, which can rise up to 20 meters, and helicopters have to worry about being burned by the flames when flying above.

The blazing heat was already burning the backs of the four people, and the four of them could only continue to flee for their lives, in the face of the forces of nature, the supernatural could only escape, and only the supernatural who controlled the flames could survive in this situation, such as Xiao Sheng and Ke Yiming, the two of them could stay in the sea of fire and be fine, of course, once there was a lack of oxygen, they would still die.

After running for half an hour, the four of them finally rushed out of the woods, outside the woods is a shallow, there are many reefs, but the soil has long been washed away by the sea, so there are no conditions for plants to grow, there is no grass on the shallows, and the waves are still washing the shore.

"Huh, he finally escaped, if I want to find out who is setting the fire, I will never spare him!" Shen Feng said viciously.

Yue Hengyi was also indignant, and said: "The awareness of forest fire prevention abroad needs to be improved, if you dare to set fire in the mountains in China, then be prepared to sit in prison!" A puff of smoke was seen on the mountain

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

, squatting in the cell for more than ten years, this is not an exaggeration at all! ”

The four people who escaped from the woods found the reef, sat on the seashore and began to rest, watching the flames in the forest not spread to the sea, so they were already safe.

Ghost Li found a pile of firewood, and after lighting the fire, he took out the bacon in his backpack and barbecued it, and advanced for a morning, the physical exertion was huge, and he was already hungry.

At this time, Slotke grabbed Shen Feng's arm, pointed to the sky with the other hand, and said, "Look, we have found the guy who set the fire." ”

Shen Feng couldn't understand English, but he still looked in the direction that the other party was pointing, he didn't know if he didn't see it, he was startled when he saw it, there was a flock of birds in the sky, with flames in their mouths, and they were throwing them into the forest, and where the fire fell, the flames would spread immediately.

"Damn, what kind of bird is this, and it can even set fire? Isn't it true that humans are the only animals that can use fire? Shen Feng couldn't help but sigh.

Yue Hengyi also looked at the group of birds in the sky, and finally solved the case, no wonder the back road on his side was also blocked by the mountain fire, it turned out that a bird threw fire from the air, it was really damned.

"These beasts, damn it, don't you set fire to them at this time?" Yue Hengyi was also scolding angrily.

At this time, Slotke also explained the reason, and Li Ghost nibbled on the bacon in his hand while acting as a translator.

It turns out that on the earth, not only humans will use flames, in addition to humans, Australian birds, birds called whistling kites can also use flames, of course, this bird will not drill wood to make fire, it can only throw the branches after the fire into the woods, and when the mountain fire appears, the animals in the forest will naturally be burned to death, and then the whistling kite will appear to pick up animals to eat.

And the whistling kite is now setting fires everywhere, most likely because they are starving during the storm season of one and a half months, so after the rain stopped, they collectively went out to set fires, creating a large number of mountain fires.

The red clouds in the sky that everyone saw before were actually dyed red by the light of the flames, and a large forest was on fire, so the entire surrounding sky was blood-red.

"Alas, it's really blind, this kind of thing will happen to us, now to Melbourne, the road is blocked, and if you are not careful, you will encounter a wildfire, what should we do now?" Yue Hengyi was speechless, Australia is really a weird place, the animals are so different, they even learned to set fire, what a dog and a chicken thief.

"You said before that the purple qi came from the east, why did it become the sky without eyes now? How do you look like a Sichuan province person more than me? The face-changing stunt is so powerful! Shen Feng couldn't help but tease.

"Nonsense, purple qi from the east can only be encountered by Lao Tzu, buddy, what I encountered is a disaster, the two cannot be compared!" Yue Hengyi shrugged his shoulders.

Shen Feng looked at the map, thought for a while and said: "Since you can't go to the east for a while, let's change the direction, go to the city in the west, there are also port cities in southwest Australia, Platinum and Fremantle, although they are not as good as Canberra and Sydney, but since they are big cities, they will not be too bad." ”

Yue Hengyi also came over, looked at the map in Shen Feng's hand, saw the location of the two cities, and couldn't help frowning: "If you go back to China from here, it's too far away from most of the Australian continent, right?" ”

"There is no choice but to take a long detour, but the great man once said that defense for the sake of attack, and retreat for the sake of forward; to the side in order to be frontal; Take detours in order to take the straight. The affairs of the world are not subject to your will. If you want to do this, you can't do it all at once, and when you come back, it's done again! Shen Feng said helplessly.

"Having said all this, it's not like it's a long detour, it's just a detour, sooner or later, I'm going to kill these whistling kites." Yue Hengyi was also very irritable, the nearest road back to China was cut off by a group of birds, forcing himself to take a long detour, which was uncomfortable.

After resting for a while on the beach, the crowd followed the coastline to the west.
