Chapter 50: The Strong Relative to the Strong
Li Wanyan watched Ning Shen and the two of them in embarrassment with cold eyes, not only did he not demolish the two of them, but also calmly pointed to the water bladder on the ground on the side, "This is what you fell?" ”
Ning He looked at it at a glance, there was a leather water bladder lying in the grass on the ground, which was very similar to his own, but he still hung it around his waist?
He picked it up and saw that the surface of the water bladder was covered with a thick layer of dust, and there was moldy bird droppings on it, and the edges were teeth marks that had been gnawed by animals.
He was sure that the bladder had been abandoned for at least a few years.
Perhaps a few years ago, someone passed by here and fell into the sinkhole, so the water bladder was left at the mouth of the pit.
He looked around again, wanting to see if there were any other objects and traces, but the vegetation in the forest was lush, the seasons changed, and the sun and moon were grinding through the wind and frost, and where could there be traces.
Shen Wuwu saw him looking around, so he hurriedly pulled him and said impatiently: "Don't look at it, it's time to hurry." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Li Wanyan weakly, for fear that she would mention the road map.
However, at this time, Li Wanyan's face was like a flat lake, her cherry lips were slightly pursed, and she didn't say a word about why she separated from Ning Shen and the others.
They're all smart people! Is there no pot that will not be opened?
If you mention it, it will only add unnecessary troubles.
Shen senselessly touched the road map in his arms, and he would never dare to take it out and take a look.
Fortunately, he still vividly remembers the details of a large section of the path.
After yesterday's fruit grove, you have to climb a small hill, pass a long and winding ravine, turn a low hill, and then enter a birch forest, and finally out of the birch forest...... And then, in the back......
He couldn't remember the rest of the day.
But in front of me, there is a vast white patch, isn't it the birch forest marked in the picture?
And the deep pit that I strayed into last night was in the depths of the birch forest.
Anyway, yesterday the two of them fled for more than an hour, but they didn't choose a way to panic, ran wildly, and in the end, they actually ran away all the way according to the path on the road map.
Heaven forbid!
This can be regarded as a way to escape! Shen Wuxian secretly rejoiced while examining his surroundings.
Actually, there's nothing to see, you have to get out of this birch forest first.
After scanning the surroundings uselessly, Shen senselessly determined the path he had come, and rushed straight in the opposite direction after pulling Ning Heku.
Li Wanyan, the master and servant, followed silently.
On the way, Miss Li saw a small pink wildflower in the forest, which was blooming very beautifully, so she picked it off casually and played with it in her hand.
After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, he came out of the birch forest, flowed through a small stream that was neither deep nor shallow, and then turned a small hill, and suddenly a large expanse of deep and dense forest suddenly appeared in front of him.
Shen vaguely remembered that there was a mark on the road map, and in the end, he had to cross a dense forest that was not too big or small to reach the foot of Fengwei Peak.
He looked at the forest in front of him, which was very different from the bright and sparse birch forest before, and all kinds of unnamed supertrees were leafy and crisscrossed, until the forest was deep and dark, and the cold wind gusted.
He looked into the forest again, and saw that the ground was overgrown with weeds and thorns, and there seemed to be no path.
There was no path, but the forest was at least flat.
The flat ground is the place where it can be passed, and the roads on the earth are also walked by people.
Shen didn't want to think about it, pulled Ning Heku, who was still hesitating, and stepped into the deep forest with one foot.
Li Wanyan frowned and thought about it, followed suit, and followed him.
Shen Wuwu relied on his intuitive sense of direction, and only blindly walked forward with high spirits, and when he encountered thorns and debris blocking the road, he took out the Cold Moon Blade and cut down all the way, which can be regarded as unimpeded all the way.
The group walked in the forest for almost two hours, and they were all a little powerless, especially Li Wanyan, who was already so tired that she was panting, and was almost supported by the green pines and cypresses.
The delicate wildflower in her hand has long since disappeared.
No, she really couldn't stand it, so she ignored Shen Wuwu, who was rampage in front of her, and sat down on a rock.
The green pine and cypress were by the side of the master, and just about to wait for the master to drink and eat, he heard Li Wanyan shouting at Ning Shen and the others: "Come back quickly." ”
Ning He stopped immediately, Shen Wuxuan was not so obedient, he half-tilted his head impatiently, "We are not tired, the girl wants to rest and take care of herself." ”
"Whoever is going to tell you to rest, come and see here." Li Wanyan's voice was stern.
Ning wanted to see it but didn't see it, so he had to pull Lalashen uselessly, and the latter reluctantly followed him back, and then saw a patch of weeds behind Li Wanyan, horizontal and vertical, chaotic, as if he had just been trampled on.
The forest is darkly lit and crisscrossed with trees, and it is difficult to detect any traces on the ground without sitting down and paying attention.
Shen Wuwu was sure that his group had not passed the grass behind her.
He looked in all directions vigilantly, "Could it be that there are other people in this forest who can't make it, isn't it......" He clenched the Cold Moon Blade as he spoke, and swept around again with ferocious vigilance like a fierce hungry wolf.
"Don't look at it, it's not a poisonous footprint, it's our own." Li Wanyan decisively interrupted his conjecture.
"How do you know it's not the poison that left behind? This mountain is inaccessible all year round, who else but him? Shen sneered at him senselessly.
"You see, there's a little pink flower on the ground, which I picked up on the way and threw it here." Li Wanyan was attached to the messy grass and picked up a small pink wildflower.
Shen Wusense: "......"
"What the girl means is that we're going back to where we came from." It's better to understand what Li Wanyan means.
The latter nodded silently.
Shen Wusense: "...... We were all going straight ahead, how could we go back around? No way! And he who did not believe evil rushed forward again.
The rest of the people also felt the need to try again, and hurried forward with him.
The group walked in the forest for more than an hour, and Shen Wuwu suddenly stopped, very frustrated, and had to let go and admit, "We are indeed lost, as if we have been going around in circles on a huge circle." ”
Not far from his side, there was a bush of thorns that had been cut off by the waist, which was clearly the mark of the Cold Moon Blade not long ago.
It couldn't be more obvious!
At this point, Shen Wuwu had to believe Li Wanyan's speculation, standing in place and sighing, sighing and sighing.
As soon as Ning Heku wanted to say something, he heard Li Wanyan's thoughtful voice: "It seems that we should have taken the wrong path before we strayed into this primeval dense forest." ”
Shen Wuxuan muttered in his heart: "After leaving the birch forest, this road is feasible, if we don't go here, do we want to fly away?" ”
He was about to take out the road map regardless of it, when Qing Song suddenly said: "Girl, you remember all the paths to Fengwei Peak, so is this dense forest we are in at the moment the only way to go?" ”
"I naturally remember all the paths to Fengwei Peak, so the route we took should also be correct. However, I clearly remember that the dense forest marked on the map when it was close to Fengwei Peak was not so deep and wide, and it stands to reason that it would not take half an hour to pass through the forest, and there was no reason to walk for several hours, and it was still in place...... "Li Wanyan frowned and pondered.
Ning Shen and the others secretly pulled each other tightly, their hearts were shocked, and they began to rub me again, I rubbed you, and silently communicated with each other.
Shen Wusense: "I went, I thought that if I stole her road map, she would retreat and obediently go home, who would have expected ......"
Ning He bitter: "Who would have expected that she would have memorized all the routes by heart, whether she had a map in hand or not, it was the same for her." That's why she was able to catch up so easily and find us trapped in the sinkhole. ”
Ning Shen and the others stood in place, no longer daring to act rashly, and only secretly opened their ears to listen.
Qingsong: "Girl, in your opinion, are we on the wrong path or not?" ”
"Is it wrong? Doesn't seem to be wrong? What went wrong? Li Wanyan supported himself with his hand, and after muttering to himself, he thought about it slightly, and when he looked up again, his eyes were also beautiful, "I understand, I see!" I see! When we came out of that birch forest, we unknowingly went in the wrong direction? ”
"Girl, how can you see that?" Qingsong naturally wants to sing and harmonize with his master.
"There's nothing wrong with starting with that fruit grove and going until you go into the birch forest. The fault is the ...... Originally, after coming out of the birch forest, it should have been a long, sharp slope, and there was a deep ravine under the slope.
The diagram also shows in detail that you should be cautious and slow down the slope so as not to slide into the deep ditch. After going down, you have to go upstream, and then you can walk through the deep ditch through the boulders, and finally reach a dense forest on the opposite bank.
And when we got out of the birch forest, there was no so-called steep slope, and only a shallow stream passed, which I thought was because it dried up in the summer and there was no water in the deep ditch! ”
Shen Wuwu was confused when he heard it, and the more he listened, the more wrong he became, the more solemn his face became, and when he was excited, he clasped Shen Wuwu's hand with his backhand, which frightened the latter, "What are you doing?" ”
Ning Heku's expression was indescribable, Shen Wuwei had never seen him look like this, and suddenly he was blessed to his heart, biting his lip and smiling, "Do you know what your expression at the moment usually represents?" ”
"What do you mean?" Ning is a little dizzy.
Shen Wuzi is serious, word by word, and his words are clear, "Your expression usually means that you know something very important, and you want to say it, but you know that if you say it easily, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
Rather than bother: "......" I'll go, does Lao Wu already know me so well? What a scary teammate!
"So, what do you know but don't dare to say, what is it, quickly and truthfully?" Shen Wuwu began to press step by step.
