Before we knew it, it was already dawn. We ate some dry food, then packed our bags and got ready to set off.
The sky was gloomy today, and there was a layer of white fog on the island. It felt like the whole world had fallen into this vast white fog.
The fog was so thick that visibility was very low and we could barely see beyond two meters.
Under such circumstances, traveling in such a primeval forest is not an easy task, because you never know what kind of unknown is waiting for you in the fog ahead?
Maybe it's a swamp, a cliff, a large carnivore, or some weird, deadly danger.
In short, anything you can't imagine is possible on this completely inaccessible island.
Therefore, we had to slow down along the way and be alert to the situation ahead and the movements in the surrounding fog.
In the whole morning, we only traveled less than 20 kilometers. Compared with yesterday, this was not even a bit worse.
It was already noon, but the surrounding fog showed no sign of dispersing. Instead, it became thicker and thicker, not even a trace of sunlight coming through.
Living in this kind of environment for a long time, I feel like I am going crazy, or even going crazy.
We passed through a thick forest and were about to reach an open area when a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in front of us, lying in front of us like a hill.
At first we thought it was some kind of large beast, and we were all frightened. However, it was only at the end of the year that we discovered that it was actually a person.
Or to be precise, it should be a corpse.
The corpse of a giant.
Even when lying on the ground, this giant's body is much taller than ours. It is conceivable that if he stood up, he would probably be comparable to the towering trees around him.
Several of us were so shocked that we even forgot what to say.
Who would have thought that this kind of giant that only existed in fairy tales actually existed on this bizarre island.
Although it is just a corpse, it is not a living giant.
However, the time when this giant died was obviously not too long, because the body had not started to rot, but there were many unknown types of strange insects crawling on the body and eating hard.
I took a closer look and saw that there were no obvious injuries on the giant's body, so I guess he died of natural causes, old age or illness, rather than being attacked by other beasts.
Think about it, with such a big size, even if it is placed on such a mysterious and bizarre island, I am afraid it will not have any natural enemies.
"My dear, where did this kind of thing come from? Are there really giants in this world?"
Yu Hunqiu circled around the giant's body and said with a look of disbelief on his face.
"It's right in front of you, what do you think?"
I chuckled, then shook my head in disbelief.
Even if this kind of thing is placed in front of our eyes, it is difficult for us to believe that it is a real thing.
"This kind of thing shouldn't be able to eat people, right? If it can eat people, wouldn't it mean that we would die if we encountered a living one?"
Yuhunqiu spread his hands and looked helpless.
What he said hit the point. Since there are giant corpses here, there must be living giants. If we really encounter them, whether they eat people or not, they will definitely be huge to us. danger.
"Fortunately, this one is dead."
Wang Junfeng glanced at us and said with a heavy expression.
"Do not talk."
Yi Xiaojiu suddenly made a gesture of silence, and then listened carefully with her ears tilted.
A few of us looked at it and listened quickly.
At this time, I heard a very strange sound suddenly coming from the fog around me. It felt like there were many wild beasts running in the forest, and it was also accompanied by bursts of weird sounds of "woo woo woo". , I don’t know what is coming from it?
Upon hearing this voice, the faces of all of us changed.
Although I haven’t seen what it is yet, just by listening to the sound, I know that there are definitely many of them, which is not a good sign.
All of us suddenly showed our faces, and then looked at the surrounding fog with vigilance.
But at this time, the surroundings became quiet, and no sound could be heard at all.
Immediately afterwards, I saw an extremely ugly and ferocious little head suddenly emerge from the fog in front of me.
This thing looks a bit like a human, but its face is extremely ugly, and it has two rows of sharp fangs. At first glance, it looks like a monkey. It is also extremely short in stature, but it has no hair on its body. Instead, it has human skin. , or the wrinkled one.
I have never seen such a thing before, and I have no idea what type of animal it is. But looking at the opponent's two rows of sharp fangs, it's easy to know that this thing must be very vicious.
Sure enough, the thing came out of the fog, and when it saw us, it immediately bared its teeth and showed a fierce look at us.
"What the hell is this?"
Yu Hunqiu said, stepping forward and kicking the thing, hoping to kick it away.
But this thing was very fast, and it jumped away in an instant, and then opened its teeth and claws at Jade Soul.
"Hey, you little guy, are you still mean to me? I won't peel off your skin, young master."
Yu Hunqiu said and rushed forward.
But at this moment, dozens of these things suddenly emerged from the fog in front of him, and they all bared their teeth and claws at Jade Soul, scaring him so much that he quickly retreated.
"Why so many?"
Yu Hunqiu's face turned pale on the spot.
Although this thing looks small, it should be easy to deal with, but if it suddenly swarmed up in such a large area, the scene was still very scary.
If these things pounced on us all at once, they would probably tear us to pieces in an instant.
"This is a ghost monkey, please be careful."
Wang Junfeng said as he quickly took off his coat, quickly wrapped it around his neck, and then took out a short knife from his bag.
As soon as I saw it, I quickly imitated him and took off my coat and wrapped it around my neck.
Although I have never heard of this thing, I don’t know whether it is a ghost or a monkey? But looking at their sharp fangs, it must be quite harmful.
If something like this jumped up and bit his neck, he would probably die in a matter of minutes, so Wang Junfeng's method of protecting his neck first was very wise.
Yu Hunqiu and Yi Xiaojiu also quickly took off their coats and wrapped them around their necks. Then they each showed their weapons and nervously confronted the ghost monkeys.
