After Xing Hao gave the order, we crouched and rushed towards the forest.
After stepping into the forest, my heart suddenly beat violently. This was not because I was scared, but because I was excited. There were plant essences everywhere around me. This feeling was so exciting that I was completely excited.
Originally, when we first entered, we could still see members of other teams at a distance, but as we continued to go deeper, the distance between each other became wider and wider, and in the end we couldn't see them at all, except for the plant essences everywhere. Apart from that, only our second team is left.
There are now eight people in the second team. One person was killed by the Millennium Tree Spirit, and the other person chose to stay in the barrier. Except for Lin Wei, Ye Yuyou and myself, the remaining five people except the captain Besides Liu Beihe, there were also two women in dilemma, whom I didn’t recognize, but Liu Beihe had introduced them one by one before setting off, so I knew a little bit about their situation.
Among the women, the younger one is a woman in her early twenties, with peak mid-two-star strength, named Gu Wen, and the older one, about thirty years old, named He Man, with late-two-star strength.
The other two men, one is a strong man in his twenties, named Chen Kun, who is from Jiang Province. It is said that he also met a ghost master when he was in college. He is the same type as me. We are both students of ghost masters. This may be the reason. Because of the relationship, there is a feeling of extra closeness.
The last one is Zhang Peng, a scholar from the Academy of Sciences, but who says that scholars must be weak? This mid-level two-star Zhang Peng undoubtedly slapped them in the face with his own strength. His strength is even stronger than mine. The pair of sunglasses hanging on his eyes give people the feeling that they cannot see the details clearly.
A group of eight people marched forward in silence the whole time. Only when taking a break would they find a place to communicate through lip sync, or not communicate at all, because we were worried that the sound would cause trouble. We would almost avoid any communication. avoid.
During this period, Zhang Peng would use the ghost board that had been muted to take photos.
In his words, as a scholar, information is the most important treasure. In his opinion, anything left behind by the ancient world of cultivation is extremely valuable, even if it is the corpse of a plant essence that we have abandoned, he still finds it. Treasure.
If he didn't have to go forward, he would collect some things and go back.
Our walking speed is about seven or eight kilometers per hour, which is not very fast. Because there are too many obstacles and plant essences everywhere, it is extremely difficult for us to walk and we cannot move forward at full speed. But fortunately, There was no danger the whole way, and we felt like we were completely integrated into the forest.
There is no distinction between day and night in a different space. The sun in the sky is like a shadow, existing but cannot be touched. You cannot look at the sky during proofreading, you can only look at our ghost cards. Fortunately, our Guifen brand has a special energy battery, which can last for several months in an unfamiliar environment without shutting down. It is enough for us to use it here for several months.
Half a day passed during this walk. We lost our way and kept going in circles in the forest. We were able to discover this in time thanks to the fact that we left some marks in various ways at regular intervals. The purpose was the same. One is to prevent getting lost and cannot be found, and the other is to give some clues to latecomers.
Although there are many plant essences in the forest, there are more ordinary plants. We wrote two large Chinese characters "Second Team" on a big tree with a conspicuous blue pen, symbolizing the Second Team of China, and at the end There is a relatively small number on the table. The number represents the number of signals we have left. It is very conspicuous.
In addition to this, we also drew an arrow to symbolize where we were going
To be fair, I really don’t want to see this mark, because it means we are lost. An Arabic numeral three on the tree proves that we are back at the third mark, about ten kilometers away from the starting point.
It's so far and still can't get out of the forest!
"boom!"
With a sullen face, Liu Beihe punched the poor big tree, creating a crater. At that time, many leaves fell from the tree, which showed the power of this punch.
"..." Liu Beihe muttered, but did not make a sound. I could tell from the shape of his mouth that this was a national curse, and I could see that he was in a very bad mood, but this is understandable, we all are. I'm irritated because this is the third time we've seen this marker, and you can imagine how long we had to wait.
Seeing this marked point, everyone was exhausted and sat on the mats panting heavily. They were quite tired from the half-day trek. After all, they were mentally tense and under great pressure throughout the journey.
Holding the compass tightly in my hand, I bit my lip, feeling heavy in my heart.
This damn place may be a problem with the magnetic field, or it may be some inexplicable reason that comes with the different space. In short, the compass is of no use at all. The pointer on it is like drinking too much and wandering around. If you can tell the direction, you are seeing a ghost. Well, if Master Cat hadn't told us that this direction was north, we wouldn't have known where to go.
It's impossible to memorize the route. The plant spirits here are always moving around, which can easily confuse people's vision. Even memorizing ordinary plants is difficult, because they basically look the same, unlike the plant spirits. They are oddly shaped and very difficult to identify.
"Fuck, I never expected that we would actually get lost. Damn it!" Liu Beihe couldn't hold it in any longer and cursed angrily, but his voice was still within a controllable range and was not too loud. It seems that he still has some sense of proportion.
"Captain, please keep your voice down, or you may get angry!" Chen Kun whispered.
"Um..."
Liu Beihe nodded, but his expression was still very bad. He looked at us and whispered: "What do you think we should do? Can you think of a way to get out of this miserable place?"
"There is no other way. If you ask me, I can only use the stupidest method. Leave marks along the way and use arrows to indicate the direction. This way you won't go wrong, right? I say we may be out of the forest soon. How big can you be?" I shrugged.
"This is the only way we can do it." Liu Beihe sighed.
After everyone took a short break and took out a little food and water from their backpacks to replenish their basic needs, we finally decided to adopt the stupid method I just mentioned. Eight people were divided into a line, with each person about ten meters apart, and moved forward together. , draw an arrow on the ground every fifty meters.
Although this is slower and more troublesome, it is more effective. The handwriting of the pen brought to us by Diju cannot be easily removed, unless the surface of the entire ground is lifted, but this is obviously impossible, unless it is repeated again A space storm.
"Ahem, sorry...I'm going to make a convenience."
Before setting off, He Man blushed and whispered something, and then all of us men turned their heads knowingly, but even so, He Man chose to leave a distance.
However, less than five seconds after He Man left, an exclamation came from over there!
"ah!"
This exclamation was extremely sharp in the early stage, but was suppressed later. When we heard this sound, our first reaction was that He Man had encountered some danger. Now we did not avoid suspicion, and a group of people rushed towards us like the wind. Where He Man is.
Soon, we saw He Man looking at the ground with a livid face. After we followed He Man's gaze, our expression suddenly changed, because in the middle of a lush weed...
There was actually a fresh corpse lying there!
