Leaving the elk tribe, Zheng Jing drove a fishing boat alone on the river.

Thinking of the record in the book, Zheng Jing opened the system map and drove quickly towards the confluence of the Amazon River and the river.

More than an hour later.

Coming to the intersection, Zheng Jing stopped the boat, and seeing that there were no ships passing around, he took out a diving suit from the space and put it on.

Putting on diving equipment, Zheng Jing tied a rope around his waist and tied the other end to the boat.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Zheng Jing took a deep breath, put on an oxygen cylinder and a waterproof eye mask and jumped down.

When you come to the river, the muddy water makes it difficult to see.

It's like coming to a different world.

There is a lot of sediment in the drinking water, and these sediments flow with the river, and it should be these things that make the river muddy.

"Damn, why are there so many catfish here?"

In the process of diving to the bottom of the river, Zheng Jing found a group of juvenile six-whiskered catfish under the illumination of the light.

Seeing these wandering six-whiskered catfish, Zheng Jing was startled.

Fortunately, there are some small catfish wandering around, and if it is that kind of adult giant catfish, Zheng Jing will have to consider it.

The water here is very deep, and the environment in the water is very complex, and all kinds of branches and aquatic plants are intertwined, which makes the already complex environment even worse.

Looking at the piranha that was swimming over when he heard the vibration, Zheng Jing looked at it twice and didn't take it seriously.

These piranhas wandered back and forth around Zheng Jing, as if wondering what kind of animal he was.

Zheng Jing dived cautiously, and he did not stop until the rope was tight.

Looking down, I can already see the bottom of the river.

The rope is not long enough to go down to the bottom of the river.

The rope is thirty meters long, which means that it is more than forty meters deep.

Well, with such a deep river and a complex environment, it's no wonder that no one dares to dive and swim here.

After checking around, Zheng Jing did not see any traces of large animals swimming past.

In other words, the plesiosaur-like monster hasn't been here recently.

If you've been here, you've left some traces.

Seeing that there were more and more piranhas around him, Zheng Jing decided to go up.

Made, so many piranhas gathered here, even the six-whiskered catfish are scared away.

He didn't dare to stay in the river anymore.

Back on the boat, Zheng Jing took off his clothes and equipment. Sitting on a stool in the cabin, he prepared to sail downstream.

As mentioned earlier, there are seventy villages from Manaus to the village of Kezonia.

The vast majority of these villages are inhabited by Native Americans.

The village of Kezonia runs down the Amazon River, and many Indians live on both sides of the river.

It's just that these villages are not very well developed because they are too far from Manaus.

As he went downstream, Zheng Jing saw many fishing boats appear on the wide river.

Seeing these fishing boats, Zheng Jing looked at the time.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon, so it was no wonder that the fishing boats were starting to go back.

"Why are you alone, how is the harvest?"

A wooden fishing boat passed by, and on top of it was a shirtless old man sitting in the bow of the boat.

At the stern of the boat, a young man was driving the boat, and it looked like it should be father and son.

Zheng Jing glanced at the old man, revealing the three necklaces around his neck.

As an Indian, how can you not understand the meaning of these necklaces.

"Hey, I thought you were fishing. Are you going back? ”

The old man asked.

Zheng Jing smiled, glanced at the distance between the two sides, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes: "Yes, I just came out of the Elk Tribe, this is not that I saw that the time was not early, and I wanted to go back quickly." ”

"Then you go slowly, let's go first."

The old man waved his hand at Zheng Jing, and then asked the young man to speed up.

Seeing the departing fishing boat, Zheng Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

Good guy, the fishing boat was so close to him just now, Zheng Jing thought he had run into a robber.

After glancing at the system map, Zheng Jing decided to go back.

It takes three hours to go back, and it is dark when we get to the village.

……

At seven o'clock in the evening, it was already dark.

When he came to the dock, Zheng Jing saw that the wooden hammer was waiting for him here.

Seeing him return, Wooden Hammer breathed a sigh of relief.

"If you hadn't called, I would have thought you wouldn't be back tonight."

Zheng Jing handed him the rope and said, "I originally thought that I wouldn't come back, but the people of the tribe were too enthusiastic, so I thought about it and came back." ”

Tie the ropes and the wooden hammer asked, "You went to that tribe today?" ”

"Do you know the Elk Tribe?"

Elk?

Wooden Hammer shook his head, indicating that he had not heard of it.

"It takes three hours from the village of Kezonia to the river where the elk tribe is located, and then you can see it after an hour and a half of straight walking in the river."

"So far?"

Hearing that it would take more than four hours to reach the Elk Tribe, Wooden Hammer was surprised.

"How did you find that tribe?"

"I met an Indian who lived there at the confluence of the river, and he told me."

Zheng Jing is actually seen through the system map.

However, this cannot be told to him.

Back home, while eating, Zheng Jing told Mu Hammer that he was going to leave tomorrow.

He has been here for more than ten days.

Especially in the past few days, he has searched all around, but he has not found any treasure until now, and he is also a little anxious.

He decided to go downstream to find a hidden place to stay, and then use the assault boat to search for treasure in the river.

Hearing that Zheng Jing was leaving, although Mu Hammer was mentally prepared, he didn't expect him to leave so early.

"You're not looking for anything?"

Zheng Jing shook his head and said, "Don't look for it, I haven't found it for so long, and I'm too lazy to look for it." ”

"When are you leaving tomorrow?"

Zheng Jing thought for a while and said, "I'll leave tomorrow morning." ”

"Okay, I'll make you a breakfast then, and you can finish before leaving."

"Okay."

After eating, Zheng Jing chatted with Mu Hammer for a while, and then returned to the room.

Lying on the bed, Zheng Jing took out his mobile phone and saw Wu Shixun and a few people chatting in the group.

After looking at the chat logs, good guys, these five old men actually went to the auction.

I am talking about the harvest this time.

Seeing the Buddha statue taken by Wu Shixun, Zheng Jing suddenly thought of Roman.

Damn, did I forget what Roman said?

Did you tell him about the Buddha statue?

Zheng Jing thought about it carefully for a while, and remembered that he had already told Roman.

No Buddha statue was found at that time.

As long as you don't release other pigeons.

Turning off his mobile phone, Zheng Jing took out his camera and turned on the video taken at the bottom of the river today.

He wanted to see if there was anything in the camera.

After watching the video, Zheng Jing shook his head and deleted the video.

The camera didn't shoot anything, and I don't know if it's a problem underwater, the camera is a bit of a lake.

"Heaven Descends"

If only I bought an underwater camera.

There is no place to buy it here, so I can only make do with it.

"Bell, bell!"

Hearing the ringing of the table clock, Zheng Jing saw that it was already nine o'clock.

Good guys, it's nine o'clock.

Thinking that he was leaving tomorrow, Zheng Jing decided to go to bed early tonight.

Put the camera away, Zheng Jing pulled up the blanket, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

At seven o'clock in the morning of the 25th, Zheng Jing woke up from his sleep.

The first thing you do when you wake up is look at your phone.

After looking at the time and message, he got up from bed.

Dressed neatly and coming out of the room, Zheng Jing smelled a fragrance.

The taste of toasted bread.

When he came to the kitchen, Zheng Jing saw the wooden hammer busy in front of the oven.

"Wake up, and you'll be fine right away."

Hearing the voice behind him, the wooden hammer turned his head and saw that it was Zheng Jing walking in.

"You're making bread?" Zheng Jing asked.

"Yes, I make my own bread, I was an apprentice baker in Manaus when I was young."

"I can't imagine that you still have such a manager, so why didn't you make bread in Manaus?"

Wooden Hammer laughed and said, "At that time, I wanted to open a bakery in Manaus, but my father was sick and spent a lot of money, so I had to come back from Manaus and take care of my father while fishing.

By the time my father died, the family had already owed a lot of money, and in order to pay it back, I had to fish in the Amazon River with nets for a living.

It wasn't until I was thirty-six years old that I paid off the money I owed. ”

Speaking of this, the wooden hammer was a little unwilling.

He could have been a baker, but due to family changes, he had to fish for a living in this backward village.

It was because of this experience that Hammer sent his son Hammer to Brasilia.

He didn't want his son to do the same fishing.

Seeing the head of life at a glance, he didn't want his son to go through it all over again.

"You are a dutiful son and a great father."

Zheng Jing said.

No wonder the villagers of Kaizonia had such respect for the wooden hammer, he thought it should be for such a reason.

"Hahaha, you know what? When I was young, I was very unwilling, but as I got older, especially when I got married and had children, my biggest wish was not to get sick.

Because I was sick, I couldn't go fishing, and if I couldn't fish, I wouldn't have the money to give my children the life they wanted.

At that time, I was working hard to earn money, but because of this, my wife was overworked and died of illness, and at that time, only me and Hammer depended on each other.

At that time, my greatest wish was for Hammer to grow up safely.

After my wife died, I was scared, really scared. ”

Wooden Hammer said calmly.

Zheng Jing fell silent after hearing this.

Is it miserable? Miserable!

But so what? Can it be changed? Yes!

But when that time comes, do you have the courage to change? No!

And then what? Stay alive!

That's life.

…………

After eating calmly, Zheng Jing took his backpack and drove away under the gaze of the wooden hammer.

Looking at the Kaizonia Village behind him, Zheng Jingyi stepped on the accelerator and sped up.

After a long distance from the village of Kaizonia, at a T-junction, Zheng Jing changed direction and headed for the lower reaches of the Amazon River.

He had to find a secluded place to live downstream, and then went to the river every day in search of treasure.

He wanted to see what the treasure was.

After driving for more than half an hour, at the edge of a forest, Zheng Jing stopped the car.

Rest for a while before walking.

He wanted to see if there was a place to hide.

If he had, he wouldn't have to go any further.

It is a broad-leaved forest, and a thick layer of leaves has fallen on the ground, and people are stepping on it like stepping on a sponge.

Because he was afraid of poisonous snakes and poisonous insects under the leaves, Zheng Jing cut a long branch when he came in.

As he walked, he tapped the ground with a branch.

Is this leopard droppings?

Looking at the pile of feces on the ground, Zheng Jing squatted down and looked at it.

Judging by the animal hair and teeth on the feces, this should have been pulled out by a carnivore.

There are many carnivores living in the Amazon forest, but this is only a broad-leaved forest, and deep in the broad-leaved forest is the Amazon River, so the carnivores living here are most likely leopards.

Now that it is confirmed that it is a leopard, Zheng Jing no longer has the idea of setting up camp here.

Who wants to be neighbors with a leopard?

Back in the car, Zheng Jing started the car and continued to walk forward.

After driving for more than twenty minutes, Zheng Jing stopped in a forest on the edge of the Amazon River.

Looking at the surrounding trees, Zheng Jing checked the surroundings.

The setting is nice, with a path running through the forest, surrounded by trees and the Amazon River beyond.

Take out the machete from the space, put the car into the space, and head deeper into the forest.

Along the way, Zheng Jing looked very carefully and found no carnivore feces.

There was no feces to be seen, which made Zheng Jing breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as there are no large predators around.

Passing through the forest, the Amazon River comes into view.

Looking at the river without a boat, Zheng Jing looked at the time, ten o'clock in the morning.

At this time, most of the people went out fishing, and there should be a lot of fishing boats on the river.

However, Zheng Jing did not see a single ship here.

There are no boats on the river, and there is only one possibility, and that is that there are no human villages within a few tens of kilometers around.

Zheng Jing opened the system map and looked at it, and the nearest village from here was thirteen kilometers away.

No wonder there are no boats passing by on the river.

Zheng Jing decided to stay here.

Coming to the forest, Zheng Jing used a machete to cut some branches in the surrounding bushes.

The cut branches were placed on three trees that were very close to each other.

Plug the gap between the three trees with branches, and a hidden place will come out.

After clearing the ground, Zheng Jing's mind moved, and a wooden house appeared here.

Looking at the wooden house covered by tree branches, Zheng Jing was relieved.

Now it's okay, you don't have to sleep outside at night.

Put all the leaves around the house into the space and throw them all into the Amazon River.

After cleaning up the leaves, Zheng Jing no longer had to worry about a fire here.

Back in the house, Zheng Jing took out the solar panel, and took advantage of the sun's poison to replenish the battery's power with solar energy.

After making the bed, Zheng Jing came to the living room, sat down at the table, and then took out food from the space and ate it.

After eating and drinking, Zheng Jing came out of the house, locked the door, set traps around it, and came to the Amazon River.

Looking at the calm water, Zheng Jing looked left and right, and after seeing that there were no boats, he took the assault boat out of the space.

Looking at the assault boat that landed on the water, Zheng Jing jumped on it and checked it.

Sure that there was no problem, Zheng Jing steered the assault boat towards the lower reaches of the Amazon River.

Zheng Jing must first familiarize himself with some of the surrounding environment.

Only by familiarizing himself with the environment here can Zheng Jing determine what to do next.

Following the system map, Zheng Jing looked at all the sections of the river within a radius of 20 kilometers around him.

After being familiar with the environment here, Zheng Jing knew why there were no villages here.

That's because the environment here is complex.

If nothing else, just the Amazon River, from above, the river is calm and you can't see anything.

However, underwater, the environment changes in an instant.

The murky water, the aquatic plants that sway with the current, and the whirlpools that appear at the bottom of the river from time to time. I don't know if it was caused by these sudden whirlpools, but there are indeed many fishing boats at the bottom of the river around here.

Judging by the size of these wrecks, these wrecks should just be ordinary fishing boats.

Zheng Jing checked them one by one and determined that these fishing boats were ordinary fishing boats.

In addition to the shipwreck, the fish at the bottom of the river are also somewhat different.

Rare, especially rare.

I don't know why, but there are so few fish in this section of the river.

Zheng Jing didn't understand why either.

"Hmm~"

Just as Zheng Jing was about to return to the shore from the assault boat, he suddenly heard a desolate, ancient voice from the river.

Hearing this voice, Zheng Jing instantly looked in the direction where the voice came from.

What is this sound?
