"What sound?"

Xu Zhige listened carefully for a while in the direction Han Ling was pointing, and shook his head, "I didn't hear any sound." ”

"Could it be that I'm nervous?" Han Ling said, touching his head.

was about to continue to set off, when suddenly, Han Ling grabbed Xu Zhige, "This time I swear, it's really not that I'm nervous, I really heard a voice!"

Seeing that Han Ling's expression didn't look like a joke, Xu Zhige closed his eyes and focused on his hearing, "It seems that there is something so good...... it!"

As soon as he opened his eyes, a gray-haired wolf flew out of the bushes. The hideous beast face and sharp teeth made Xu Zhige and Han Ling's scalps tingle.

"Wait! Something seems wrong!"

Xu Zhige grabbed Han Ling, "Look at it!"

Han Ling fixed his eyes and immediately gasped.

I saw that the wild wolf had not gone far from the bushes, and then he fell to the ground weakly, and kept bubbling heavily, and even his tongue was hanging out of his mouth.

A pungent smell of blood made Han Ling cover his mouth and nose, and in the lower abdomen of the wild wolf, a huge wound was gurgling and gurgling blood, and some internal organs were constantly beating with wheezing, and it was getting slower and slower.

Eventually, the wolf stopped moving, and the ground was stained red with blood.

"This is ......" Xu Zhige got closer, squatted down to check the corpse of the wild wolf, and immediately frowned, "This seems to be the work of some kind of beast! Look here, there are traces of bites on the lower abdomen, this monster's mouth is so big!"

The crisis was temporarily lifted, but Xu Zhige and Han Ling were not easy, because the beast that caused the death of the wild wolf was still eyeing the woods, and the enemy was dark and clear, in such an environment, the decision of the two of them was to put on their backpacks and evacuate as soon as possible.

I don't know where the wolf came from, but if you run in the opposite direction, I hope you can avoid encountering the monster that bites off the wolf's belly. The idea that the monster would be fed by the wolves and would no longer come out to forage for food was groundless, and could only pray in secret.

It's getting yellow, and the sun may be about to set.

The weather temperature in the Ding area is different from the warm weather outside the area, and there is a strange tree species called the Heat Wave Tree in the sea of trees in the Ding area.

As its name suggests, this exotic tree from the volcanic forests of the New World inhales carbon dioxide and exhales oxygen accompanied by a burst of heat. The first test when you enter the Ding area is the hot and humid temperature.

"Well, ahead, look! There is also a college mark here, but it doesn't look like it was left over from the construction of the new campus, so this is probably the edge of the old campus in Tianfu. Han Ling's eyes were good, and he could clearly see the rusty and mottled sign on the edge of the tree-lined path. "Special area, please be prepared for safety when entering!"

After taking out the map and comparing it carefully, Han Ling formulated a route forward. "If you compare the map, the best route is...... Head north, which is the edge, and what you're looking for is in the student building of the old school building, and the nearest route is all the way north. ”

Xu Zhige looked left and right, "The environment here is like this, can you still tell where the north is?"

"Well, if the conditions only allow us to move forward, then the first thing we have to do is determine the direction. Han Ling picked up a branch from the side and said, "While the sun hasn't set yet, I'm going to use the pole shadow to determine where the north is." ”

Xu Zhige stepped aside very respectfully, this kind of thing is not what he is good at.

"Well, let's take a look first, where is the shadow of the sun now......" Han Ling showed concentration, "Then, put a stone at the end of the shadow and wait for about fifteen minutes to see how the shadow moves." ”

Fifteen minutes later,

"Look...... The shadow has already moved a little" Han Ling took out a new stone again, "Put the stone on the end of this new shadow again, you can get a straight line, we stand in a straight line, facing the branches, and the direction we get is the north!"

"Oh, that's amazing!" Xu Zhige nodded in praise.

"Luckily, the longer we wait, the wider the line and the more precise our direction becomes, which a friend taught me during field training before. Han Ling touched his head and smiled.

"Let's go, I don't want to stay in this big greenhouse for a moment, it should be better to get out of the range of the heat wave tree. ”

But this idea is undoubtedly very naïve, because although Xu Zhige and the others had predicted how big the Ding area would be in advance, when they actually entered it, they found that the estimate they had made was far from enough!

According to the records of the academy's classics, the Heat Wave Tree was only covered in the outermost layer of the old school building, and as long as it was out of the outermost layer, it was rare to see these trees, but Xu Zhige and Han Ling walked for almost an hour and a half, but they still did not leave the range area of the Heat Wave Tree.

"It's so hot and tired, I just found out now that my physical fitness is so poor......" Han Ling's face turned red, and he even struggled to speak.

Xu Zhige wiped the sweat from his forehead, handed a kettle from his backpack to Han Ling, and said: "Dampness reduces the evaporation rate of sweat, the body is full of heat dissipation, and the body temperature cannot be lowered, the longer you move, the more you are at risk of heat stroke." To be on the safe side, you should drink plenty of water. ”

Han Ling blushed a little, she brought a small backpack over, but forgot to bring the kettle.

Xu Zhige said with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't think the water source is a problem, the high humidity and high temperature in this special area means that this thunderstorm occurs frequently, rain is inevitable, we take some rain to drink, it's still no problem." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Ling noticed the abnormality, "Hey, look ahead! Inside the pile of dead wood, I guess it was struck by lightning before this kind of abnormality appeared." ”

Xu Zhige glanced at it, and the dead wood on the ground had turned into lightning strike wood, and it had been carbonized in the central area.

"Ha, charcoal starts!" Han Ling grabbed some broken charcoal and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, it is useful to filter drinking water and make a fire, and you have to rely on this thing to make a bonfire at night." ”

Han Ling's knowledge of survival in the wild is really not covered, well, except that he was too reckless to forget to bring a kettle......

Step into the night.

Xu Zhige and Han Ling found a place with a wider view on the side of the road and lit a bonfire.

"I haven't seen it for a long time, the stars are ......," Han Ling pointed to the shining stars in the sky. "It's really easier to see the shining stars in the dark. ”

Looking at Han Ling's smiling appearance, Xu Zhige couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I don't know how long it has been, I haven't looked at the sky properly." ”

When he was sighing, Xu Zhige keenly felt the crisis.

"Silence!"

But it was too late, and a fishy wind came, and the low roar of the beast came from within the bushes, and a majestic body the size of a buffalo walked out slowly.

With dark black skin, snow-white mane like a lion, dark red eyes, and a pair of horns on the head, this monster did not match the fierce beast that Xu Zhige knew, but just by looking at it, he knew that it was a fierce man-eating beast.

"Something happened! Han Ling is ready to run away!" Xu Zhige raised his breath and tried to control the rhythm of his mind and breathing.

"Roar!"

The strange beast let out a lion-like roar and stared at Xu Zhige and the others viciously.

Life and death, in an instant!

............

"Princess, that Xu Zhige has already gone to the Ding area alone according to the plan, how many catties and taels does he have, I believe that this time you can get a glimpse of it. ”

In the hidden house, Situ Rou, who was not in a wisp, lay down behind Princess Mingzhu, who was thin silk and light gauze, and a pair of small hands were massaging in a very professional way.

Princess Mingzhu, who was enjoying a massage with her little hands like white jade, closed her eyes and did not answer, as if she was enjoying a rare moment of relaxation.

Seeing this, Situ Rou massaged harder, and at the same time pressed it, and asked at the same time, "It's just that, princess, I don't understand a little." Why would the princess be so curious about that Xu Zhige? You must know that there are many talents in the academy, and there are several first-year students alone, so why spend her energy on a third-year ...... who is about to graduate."

"Hehe, didn't you just say it, curious!" Princess Mingzhu smiled coquettishly, "It's just a trivial matter that I can't win over Dai Junhong, to put it clearly, there are so many talents in the world, I can't catch them all." So you don't have to think of ways to make things difficult for Dai Junhong and Xu Zhige just because they are close. ”

"This ...... I see. ”

Princess Mingzhu turned around, gently stroked Situ Rou's mutton fat and white jade-like skin, and laughed softly: "Xu Zhige is still quite interesting, not to mention anything else, just because he and Han Hao have an enmity with each other, it is worth our kindness to him." ”

"The Han family, as the prince's descendant, is also the backbone of the most relied on, Han Hao's enemies can be our friends, even if we can't let him work for me, as long as he can cause some trouble for the Han family. Forget about Dai Junhong's matter, Xiaorou, you continue to help me find other young talents, well, don't just focus on the first and second grades, the third grade can also have more contact, you must know that they can also help us manage some territory in the pioneering land in advance. ”

"Understood...... Princess ......" Situ Rou, who was panting under Princess Mingzhu, raised her head and asked, "The last question, Her Royal Highness the Princess, I, Situ Rou, can join...... Star Monarch troops?"

"Hehe, this depends on whether you have this talent or not......"
