Chapter 19: Through the Rainforest
Chasing Long took the wet camouflage uniform and put it on his body, the wet camouflage uniform looked very heavy, and it was tightly attached to the surface of the skin, which was extremely uncomfortable. With all their weapons and equipment in order, the two of them walked towards the rainforest heights.
"This time, thanks to you making up for a shot in time, the strength of the lightning leopard is really not to be underestimated. But how did you find out that we were fighting in the grass?" asked Chasing Dragon.
Thinking that in the hands of the lightning leopard, one of the top ten killers in the world, only one killer has such a strong strength, and it is rumored that Kunsha spent a lot of money and secretly hired several top ten international killers, you can imagine what kind of Longtan tiger's den is in the base camp of Kunsha in the Golden Triangle. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a chill behind the chasing dragon.
"When the lightning leopard was rappelled by helicopter, I was lurking under the water grass on the riverbank, and when I saw that terrifying face, I recognized him as one of the top ten killers in the world, and I took a step ahead to lurk behind the high ground. Mina explained.
"You can just lurk quietly on the riverbank and do nothing!" Chasing Dragon stopped and laughed.
"If it's an ordinary enemy, I don't have to worry, since the lightning leopard is personally involved in this operation, the gold owner behind it must have a great background!" said Mina, who followed closely behind the chasing dragon.
"Oh...... Tell me what you think!" Chasing the dragon turned and continued to walk forward. Passing through the dense grassy area, you will see a relatively open highland, where several huge banyan trees stand in the middle of the rainforest.
"If we can hire an international killer like Lightning Leopard to attack us, it is currently estimated that the financier behind it should be the Dongsha Group. Because our task is to go to Dongsha Group to save people, coincidental things are always suspicious. Mai Na analyzed.
"So, our mission plan for this time was leaked to Kunsha. Chasing the dragon frowned and said.
"It is very likely that there are too many accidents on this lying trip, and these spearheads are all pointed at the Dongsha Group, the ultimate destination of this mission. Mina said seriously.
Chasing Long listened to her speech as he walked, and couldn't help but think that he hadn't even seen Kunsha's true face at the moment, and he had encountered so much trouble, how difficult it was to rescue Madi.
The two of them walked and talked unconsciously to this huge banyan forest, where the staggered branches were like a huge net, enveloping the earth, and the dense branches and leaves covered the sky and the sun, as if to isolate everything from the outside world.
Chasing the dragon stopped and looked at the mottled shadows of the trees on the ground and said, "This big tree is a good place to shelter from the wind and rain, I will go to the neighborhood to cut some wood and build a shelter, and I will sleep here tonight." ”
"Then I'll come with you!" Maina asked.
"It's getting dark, let's split up, collecting food and building shelter is a priority, you go to the neighborhood to collect wild fruit food. Chasing the dragon commanded.
"Alright!" Mina was happy with the arrangement.
"Stay safe, there should be no large beasts nearby, don't go too far, and be sure to come back before dark. Chasing the dragon instructed.
"You too...... Stay safe!" Myna watched as Chasing the Dragon walked deeper into the rainforest.
The dragon trampled on the soft, damp ground, looking around for trees to build on, and kept an eye out for the soft ground beneath his feet, as the rainforest was full of man-eating swamps and mires. If you are not careful, you may step into this invisible trap.
As the dragon continued to walk deeper into the rainforest, the smell of pristine nature came to his nose, the smell of rotting trees filled the air, and crows of crows returned to their nests overhead.
Chasing the dragon walked to a tall banana tree, reached out and pulled out the saber from the scabbard at his waist, and slashed at the root of the bowl-thick banana tree.
Whoa...... With a violent swing, the huge banana leaves made a rattling sound......
After a while, a lot of sweat broke out on the forehead of the chasing dragon, flowing down the skin of his cheeks and neck, and the violent slashing action tore at the wound skin at the neck, and the white bandage oozed a bright red bloodstain.
Chasing Long looked at the rows of plantain trees that had fallen to the ground, and roughly counted about a dozen. He put away his saber, carried the two huge banana trees on his shoulders, and went straight back to the same place, and so on and so on before carrying all the banana trees on the ground.
When he returned to the Banyan Grove, Mina had not yet returned. Chasing Long continued to cut the plantain tree neatly, and then poured it upside down on the damp and soft ground, and the rest of the plantain leaves were also spread on top of it, these bowls of thick trunks and plantain leaves were enough to cut off the moisture from the ground and give them a good night's rest.
Of course, this plantain bed is not enough, and God knows which foraging animals will be seen in this pristine rainforest in the middle of the night. Although they have weapons and equipment on them, they also need to make a protective fence, at least if the beast approaches, there is enough time to react.
"Bang, bang......"
Several gunshots rang out in the forest in the distance, and the dragon knew it was the sound of Mina's hunting gunshots.
Then he cut down dozens of tree trunks as thick as a thumb two meters high, cut one end of the trunk into a pointed shape, and inserted each one into the dirt floor at a palm-wide distance, surrounding the plantain bed spread on the ground.
The sun sets, and the night gets darker.
Before nightfall, Chasing Long picked up a pile of dry firewood and branches nearby and placed them in the open space next to the plantain bed. The cold damp heat of the rainforest needs to be dissipated by campfires, and the foragers in the dark can be kept out of the way.
Chasing the dragon found a hard square stone, removed the bullet with a saber, and the black particles ** in it fell in the center of the stone, and he raised his pistol to shoot at the stone.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, and the black ** burned violently, igniting the dry firewood around it, and after adding a few pieces of firewood, the bonfire burned more and more, looking at the red firelight. Chasing the dragon remembered that Maina had been gone for a while, just when she was worried......
"Hey, you're pretty good at building this nest!" came Maina's praise not far away.
"Oh...... Well, feel it tonight. Chasing the dragon said with a smile. At the same time, he noticed that Mina had a bright red and blood-colored animal on her shoulder, which had obviously been skinned and washed.
"What kind of animal is this?" asked Chasing Dragon subconsciously.
"Guess!" said Mina. At the same time, the prey is lowered from the shoulder and thrown onto the ground on top of the plantain leaves.
"Leopard meat?" said Chasing Dragon with a smile.
"Don't mention the leopard again, I want to vomit when I think of the leopard-patterned totem face of the lightning leopard!" said Mina, crouching down and sitting beside the dragon.
"That's the black deer I caught with good luck. Mina said proudly.
"Black Deer...... A deer with brown fur all over its body is black?" Chasing Dragon said he had never seen it.
"That's right...... I heard that there are many treasures on this deer, and men like to eat this black deer's treasure. I've also heard that men in the big countries of the East have a soft spot for this kind of thing!" Maina said with a smile, her beautiful eyes particularly watery and moving.
"You know a lot. As he spoke, Chasing Dragon reached out and added the large rotting log into the campfire.
"This venison is grilled and eats, and the taste should be no worse than that of steak. Mina reached out and laid out a few banana leaves in front of the campfire, and then brought the venison over and put it on it, while Chase Dragon and she sat cross-legged on the plantain bed, enjoying the warmth of the campfire.
"Now it's up to you to roast the meat. Maina blinked at Chasing Dragon and said.
"What about you!"
"I'm not idle, I'm not idle, I'll help you sharpen the long wooden skewers and then skewer the venison. Mina said.
Chasing the dragon drew his saber and sliced the blood-red venison and handed it to Mina.
In a short time, dozens of venison skewers were ready, and they were inserted into the ground near the campfire in rows, and Maina looked at the meat skewers in front of her, and couldn't help but stick out her tongue and lick her lips, a strong appetite that stimulated her taste buds. Mina turned to look at the chasing dragon, and saw that the white bandage on the neck had long since turned blood red.
"Your wound is bleeding again, I'll help you redress it. Mina reached out and took out the medicine bag, reached out and untied the bandage on Chaser's neck, and rebandaged it.
The flames burned violently, and the damp camouflage uniform on Chaser's body emitted bursts of steam, which was all in the eyes of Maina.
"Take it off, this camouflage uniform is already quite thick, it must be very uncomfortable to wear on the body when it is wet, so let's dry it before wearing it!" Maina said with concern.
Chasing Long understood her kindness, so he reached out and took off the steaming camouflage uniform, supported it by the bonfire with a branch, and his upper body was roasted by the warm firelight, and he felt extremely comfortable at this moment.
From time to time, Chasing Dragon observed the pitch-black surroundings, calm and impermanent, and a little moonlight was transmitted through the gaps in the sparse branches and leaves above his head.
He surmised that it would be sunny and rainless tonight.
"Nourish...... Zizi ......" The venison on the wooden skewers makes a sizzling sound when grease comes out.
Mina hurriedly reached out and pulled out two strings, handing one of them to the chasing dragon. The venison is chewed in the mouth, and the texture of the shredded meat tastes like mutton, although there is no salt taste, but the two of them eat it with relish.
The red light of the fire reflected Maina's smiling face, and she smiled so brightly like a flower, it was innocent and kind!
Maybe she could just smile like this in front of him, really.
"Venison, the beauties are all there, and the wine is missing. Chasing the dragon quipped.
"Do you want to drink?" asked Mina as she re-skewered the fresh venison.
"If anything, you can consider it. Chasing the dragon smiled.
"Aren't you afraid I'll get drunk?" said Mina, turning her eyes to Chasing Dragon.
"I was afraid before, but now I am not afraid. Chasing the dragon said with a smile.
"If you don't do something now, you may not have a chance now, and if you don't do it now, you may never have a chance again!" said Mina, smiling as she looked at the campfire.
"yes...... It's better to have a chance than not to have a chance!" said Chasing the Dragon, sighing.
"Alright...... You're tired too, so get some rest early. Mina reached out and wrapped the remaining fresh venison in plantain leaves, fearing that the strong smell of meat would attract animals foraging in the night.
"You also rest early. Chasing Dragon checked the Aka rifle, reloaded it with bullets, and placed it beside him.
At this time, the camouflage uniform was not yet dry, and he could only lie flat on the banana leaves, and a cold feeling swept over his back in an instant.
The second half of the night......
"The tornado that appeared in the sky blew his whole body up, he drifted in the wind at will, he desperately wanted to grasp everything around him, he wanted to return to the ground, to return to the original place! As if all the struggle was in vain, the merciless tornado still took him away, and parted with the sky, the land, and those people!"
The dream woke up, but the fists in Chaseilong's hands were clenched tightly, and he opened his hazy eyes to find that he had just had a nightmare.
At some point, Mina had taken off her shirt and sat cross-legged on the plantain bed staring at the campfire, occasionally reaching out to pluck the firewood with a branch to make the fire burn more vigorously, and she didn't notice that the dragon was waking up.
The slender and sexy back curve is perfectly presented in front of you, and the tall and plump double peaks reveal a chic beauty.
Chasing the dragon looked towards the fire, and the camouflage uniform that Maina was wearing was hanging by the campfire at this time, and the smoke was curling like water vapor.
Chasing the dragon sat up, reached out and took off the camouflage uniform that had dried by the fire, and draped it over Myna, who had no obstacles.
In an instant, Mina's face showed a look of surprise and shame, and then she returned to calmness. The face that was slightly red from the bonfire slowly leaned on the shoulder of the chasing dragon beside him.
