Chapter 8: Snake and Rat Mountain (1)
"Wait, wait. We can't go any further. This should be Snake and Rat Mountain!" Shao Hui waved his hand and motioned for everyone to stop.
"What's the matter, I finally passed the White Fog Mountain, wasted so much of our time, don't go quickly, make up for the wasted time, I don't want to think that I haven't crossed the five mountains on the 30th day. Xu Shizhu said angrily.
"I know that everyone has complaints about me, but do you see it, the map clearly indicates that this is Snake and Rat Mountain, and the second uncle of the cash cabinet was eliminated here. Shao Hui ignored Xu Shizhu and continued:
"We only have one antidote pill per person, which means we only have one chance, and if we get bitten twice, we will only be eliminated. So I suggest that we first divide the order of the queue and then hurry carefully. ”
"Then how do you want to divide it. Xu Shizhu asked.
"I'm at the front, Brother Xu is in front of Zuihou, I don't know if you are willing. If you don't want to, I'm in Zuihou, and you can be at the forefront. Looking at Xu Shizhu, Shao Hui said lukewarmly.
"You...... In Zuihou noodles, in Zuihou noodles, who is afraid of whom!" Xu Shizhu said with annoyance.
It's not that he doesn't want to be in the limelight, although he wants to be the leader of this group. But he is not a fool, snake and rat mountain, as soon as he hears this word, he knows that the mountain is full of poisonous snakes and poisonous insects. He didn't want to be at the front. That's the most dangerous place.
On the other hand, Shao Hui is not having a good time, he is also unwilling to go in the front, the first is responsible for exploring the way is the most dangerous, and Zuihou is responsible for breaking the back, which is not safe. The first one、Zuihou is not a good place。 He estimated that he would never be able to stay in the middle, and he estimated that Xu Shizhu was unwilling to do so. He had to bite the bullet and say the above words. After Xu Shizhu is broken, the position in the middle will be easy to arrange.
So they quickly arranged the order of walking, Shao Hui was in the front, Xu Shizhu was in the zuihou side, and in the middle: Qian Cai, Wen Hui, Lu Tong, and Guo Yang. Everyone had no opinion when they saw Shao Hui taking the lead.
"Then we'll have to be very careful this time. Everyone find a stick and be careful of the grass on the side of the road, so as not to be bitten by snakes and insects. Shao Hui added.
As he was talking, he suddenly saw a light in the sky, followed by a crisp "crackling" sound, like a firecracker.
At this time, you look at me, I look at you. Everyone realized what was happening.
"Someone was eliminated so quickly. Guo Yang said.
"I don't even remember that we had another arrow. Xu Shizhu touched his chest and said.
Everyone unconsciously touched their chests.
"This means that someone is one step ahead of us, we need to hurry! It's been thirteen days. Shao Hui said while looking at the sky.
"Thirteen days. Lu Tong repeated casually. Suddenly, he said, "Brothers, sisters, wait, we forgot the most important thing. ”
"What's the matter. ”
"Don't be surprised, what's the matter!"
"Tell me what's going on. ”
Facing everyone's questions, Lu Tong untied the small package containing dry food from his back. Shook in front of everyone.
"What are you shaking, don't you have one for everyone?Or your dry food is not enough, dry food ......" Xu Shizhu seemed to remember something, and hurriedly unwrapped his dry food package to check.
"Do you remember that before we set off, we received dry food and two pills for fifteen days? The red pill can guarantee that we will not eat or drink for ten days, and the green pill will detoxify, but there is only one chance. Lu Tong paused and continued.
"The master on the high platform said that we must cross five mountains in thirty days, and it has been thirteen days before we have come to the bottom of the third mountain. The most important thing is that we don't know how many days we can pass this mountain, and from this mountain there are arrows rising, indicating that from this point there are eliminated people. It can be seen that it is very difficult to get through this mountain. Moreover, we only have two days of dry food left, and even with the pills we only have twenty-five days of food, so what are we going to do with the remaining five days?"
It was only after Lu Tong said this that his family realized the seriousness of the problem.
"Yes, we wouldn't have been able to make it through the remaining five days without food!"
"I ate so much that I only had one day's dry food left. Xu Shizhu looked at everyone and said eagerly.
At this time, everyone was dumbfounded, only knowing that they were tired and tired, but they missed this important question.
Suddenly, Guo Yang looked at Wen Hui and Lu Tong, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
The corner of Lu Tong's eyes swept over Guo Yang's face, and he immediately knew what he wanted to do.
"Brother Guo, don't think about it, have you forgotten what the immortal said, it is strictly forbidden to snatch other people's food and pills. That's the rule set by the immortals. When Lu Tong said this, he emphasized the word immortal.
Hearing what Lu Tong said, everyone hurriedly looked up at Guo Yang.
"Brother Lu, what are you talking about? Could it be that the elder brother has any crooked ideas, and who of us dares to violate the rules set by the immortals. Guo Yang was a little embarrassed and said to everyone.
"With me here, no one should think of bad ideas. Who would dare to violate the rules set by the immortals? Besides, I will not allow anyone to think of a bad idea. Shao Hui glared at Guo Yang and continued: "Strength, let's think about how to pass the next assessment!"
Everyone fell silent again.
"Big brothers and sisters, time is the most precious thing for us in the current situation. We had to rush forward as quickly as possible, but our food was limited, and the mountain forest ahead was infested with snakes, rats, and poisonous insects. If we don't pay attention, we'll be knocked out. But think about it on the other hand, we still have a great chance of passing through!" Lu Tong broke the silence.
"Tell me quickly, Brother Lu, what can you do. Shao Hui hurriedly spoke.
"Tell me, talk about it!"
"It's all at this time, you still have the heart to sell off, say it quickly!" ...... Everyone, you and I said it word by word.
"I often go into the mountains with my father to hunt to support the family when the farm is not working, and sometimes I don't go home when it's late, and I spend the night in the mountains and have no food. I think that if there are snakes, rats, and poisonous insects in this mountain, then there is always something to eat, and it should not be a problem for us to catch some to fill our stomachs. Besides, the immortals should think of these problems when setting up this assessment!"
"That's right, Brother Lu, I didn't expect you to be an Orion! I knew you had the most ideas. As soon as Lu Tong finished speaking, Xu Shizhu didn't think Lu talked too much, and patted Lu Tong's shoulder and cheered.
"Just eating snakes and rats, is this okay? I'm kind of ...... It's a little ...... "Wen Hui is a girl after all, although she has a strong will, she is inevitably a little scared.
"What are you afraid of, isn't there no other way? In order to pass the test, what if there is more difficulty? In order to become an immortal, what is this difficulty?"
As soon as Shao Hui finished speaking, another rattling arrow was remembered in the sky. Everyone panicked.
"Alright, let's go. Stay safe and stay in formation. Shao Hui paused and said, "In addition, pay attention to the fruits and other foods along the way." ”
As soon as they left, Zhong Yunhai showed his figure and smiled slightly: "Good boy, you actually guessed that we were coming." Then he disappeared again.
However, it was said that Lu Tong's group each held a wooden stick and walked forward shouting in formation.
Along the way, some birds were indeed startled and some insects and snakes were scared away. By the way, some wild fruits were also collected. Just when they are happy and let their guard down, thinking that nothing is wrong.
"Oops, my leg was bitten by a snake. Xu Shizhu, who was walking in Zuihou, suddenly screamed.
"What's going on?"
"How's it going?"
"Where is the snake?"
"Ah, poisonous snakes. ”
Everyone looked at Xu Shizhu who fell to the ground, and saw a small green snake "whoosh" into the grass, and hurriedly surrounded it.
"Why are you still stunned, hurry up and eat the green pill. Shao Hui reminded.
Hearing him say this, Xu Shizhu hurriedly struggled to sit up, took out the green pill from his body and swallowed it in one gulp. I saw that the place on my leg that was bitten by the snake flashed a few times and green, and a few drops of black blood dripped out. Slowly recover as if nothing had happened.
Xu Shizhu hurriedly stood up, kicked his legs, and pinched the injury with his hand.
"The medicine of the immortals just works. The cash drawer touched his chest with one hand. He pointed to Xu Shizhu's leg and said.
"Okay, it's okay, I didn't hurry up! Brother Guo is asking you to go to Zuihou and let Brother Xu be in front. Shao Hui pointed to the position behind Xu Shizhu and said.
"Weishenme is me, not you. Guo Yang's face turned blue and said angrily.
"Why don't you go to the front, I'll go to zuihou. ”
"I'm neither at the front nor at zuihou, whoever likes to go. Guo Yang lowered his face at this time and argued with Shao Hui. Everyone knows that there is still a chance to be bitten once, and if you are bitten twice in Zuihou, it is really powerless. Therefore, Guo Yang lowered his face and argued with Shao Hui.
"You ......" Shao Hui really didn't have anything to do for a while, he, the team leader, had almost no decisive power, and he couldn't talk about forcing anyone to do what.
"Don't fight, I'll go to Zuihou. Just when Shao Hui couldn't help it, Lu Tong spoke.
Hearing this voice, everyone's eyes looked at Lu Tong in unison.
"I said, I'll go to Zuihou, there's no problem, right?" Lu Tong emphasized again.
"This ...... , Brother Lu, how can you thank you for being an elder brother. Shao Hui patted Lu Tong on the shoulder and said.
"Brother, xiexie. Xu Shizhu glared at Guo Yang and said.
"Okay, okay, let's not waste time, let's go quickly!" just as everyone was about to say something, Lu Tong urged.
So, Shao Hui and the money cabinet were in front, Wen Hui and Xu Shizhu were in the middle, Guo Xiangyang and Lu Tong were behind, and everyone began to set off again.
Looking at the people in front of him, although Lu Tong was dissatisfied in his heart, he still insisted on his own approach. He felt that walking in Zuihou at this time had become the safest. After Xu Shizhu was bitten, everyone unconsciously pulled back when they used wooden sticks to pull the grass, and they always looked behind themselves unconsciously, for fear of being bitten by a snake. At this time, Lu Tong became the safest, but despite this, Lu Tong still did not dare to be careless, and he was afraid of any accidents.
