The virgin forest we are in is rich in moisture, and it has experienced several heavy rains in just over 20 days. Looking around, there are puddles and depressions everywhere... It can be said that there are waterways crisscrossing the area.
After all, this is a mountainous area with complex terrain, including mountains and valleys, highs and lows, resulting in a special landform integrating grasslands, mountains, forests, and swamps.
The river below runs through the entire forest. The river is winding and winding, making it difficult to pass in many places.
Sun Cheng and Liu Han are both professionals with extremely high wilderness survival skills, but they are still cautious at this moment, staring closely at the curve in front of them, trying to control the speed and direction of the raft.
There are four people on the raft in front. Lan Yue and Ai Li stand in the middle, Lan Jianguo and Professor Xu are at the head and tail respectively, each holding a long wooden pole.
The two cooperated very well, paddling left and right alternately on the water surface. When encountering rapids or turns, Lan Jianguo adjusted the direction in front, and Professor Xu controlled the speed from behind.
His movements gradually changed from the stiffness when he first got on the raft to extremely smooth. If it weren't for his physical weakness, he would have distanced himself from us long ago.
"Xiao Dao, look at the two old men in front, how skilled they are at rowing? These two guys must be water ghosts. What should I do?" Du Jun came to me and asked.
Now not only Du Jun, but everyone saw that something was wrong.
Just Lao Lantou’s posture and movements?
No one would believe that he is a fisherman who lives on the water all year round.
Moreover, he seemed to be very familiar with the river in front of him, and he kept making strange shouting sounds, echoing with Professor Xu behind him.
The two of them rowed more and more vigorously, as if they had been given a shot of blood. From time to time they would glare at us with their eyes and smile at us, looking like a big bad wolf looking at a little white rabbit.
Lan Yue and Ellie stood on the raft, not knowing what to do?
It was obvious that Lan Jianguo and Lao Xu were possessed by ghosts, but one was their biological daughter and the other was their goddaughter, so it was impossible to leave the old man alone.
Seeing that the distance between them was getting farther and farther, they were both scared.
"Brother Xiaodao, hurry up, paddle quickly!" Ellie kept waving to us.
"Hurry up! Work harder, we don't want to be defeated by the old man. If you can't do it, I'll take over for you for a while!" Du Junhou was anxious and rolled up his arms and sleeves, wanting to go up and help.
"Get away from me. It's okay for you to have a good time in the bathhouse, just stay there for a while!
"Don't worry, Lao Lan and his friends have bodies like chickens? If I fight with your Third Master, I'll vomit blood!"
Liu Sanye was now competing with the front. He was so sweaty that he didn't even bother to wipe it off. He gritted his teeth and chased Sun Cheng desperately.
Two rafts were chasing each other on the water.
I don't know how long it took, but Sun Cheng and Liu Han finally couldn't stand it anymore, and Tong Lei and Hong Gang took over.
The level of these two people is not at the same level as Sun Cheng, and our speed will slow down immediately.
Lan Jianguo and Professor Xu in front seemed to be tireless, and their spirits were getting more and more exciting.
The distance between us gradually widened.
"Xiao Dao, what should I do?" Sun Cheng walked over and asked, rubbing his arm.
"If this continues, we won't be able to catch up!"
"It doesn't matter, we are about to rush out of the woods. We will enter a cave soon. I guess they can't row anymore!" I looked up at the sun in the sky and said.
I have seen this cave a long time ago, and it is the only way to escape.
At this time, we were already approaching the edge of the woods. A mountain appeared in front of us, with a large cave in the middle. It was dark inside, and the river under our feet was flowing into the cave.
"Everyone, get ready and put on your headlamps." I shouted to the people around me.
I took out a Zhengyang Talisman, and before entering the cave, I lit the Yanghuo Life Lamp and opened my Heavenly Eye at the same time.
Lan Jianguo and Professor Xu in front also put on their headlamps, and then the raft carried them into the cave and disappeared before our eyes.
But just after they rushed into the cave, two screams suddenly came out: "Ah, ah!"
This sound doesn't sound like a human being at all. It's desolate and vicious. When you hear it, you will only have one thought!
If there is a real ghost noise in this world, it must be this sound.
Sun Cheng's and others' expressions changed, and although their voices were mutated, they could still tell that they were Lan Jianguo's accents.
While they were stunned, the raft was already approaching, and they felt that the hole in front of them was getting bigger and bigger, and gusts of cool wind blew towards them. Then everything went dark and we entered the cave.
The water flow did not stop, and the raft automatically slid forward for more than ten meters before the speed began to slow down and slowly floated on the water.
Under the illumination of the headlamp, the cave is very high and the walls are very smooth. The river below is almost straight, and some floating aquatic insects and plants can be vaguely seen.
"Xiao Dao, come here quickly, my dad and the others have fainted!"
Lan Jianguo's raft was parked not far ahead. Two old men were already lying on the raft. Lan Yue and Ai Li were sitting next to them, calling us hurriedly.
Sun Cheng and Liu Han hurriedly picked up the wooden sticks and slid the raft closer.
When the two rafts came in, I jumped to Lan Yue's side and shouted over my shoulder.
"Brother Sun, Uncle Liu and the army are coming. The others are waiting on the raft."
"Xiao Dao, my dad screamed as soon as they entered the cave. He and Uncle Xu both fainted!" Lan Yue said while holding Lan Jianguo's head.
"Don't worry, you lift their heads up first, and I'll give them medicine right away."
As soon as I settled down, I stepped forward and, bang bang, two talismans were slapped directly on the foreheads of Lan Jianguo and Professor Xu.
"Army, hurry!"
Du Jun took out two small bottles from his backpack and handed them over. They contained black dog blood mixed with medicine, which could keep it from coagulating all year round.
"Xiaoyue, feed this to Uncle Lan!"
I first handed one bottle to Lan Yue, then took the other bottle, pinched open Professor Xu's mouth, and poured two sips of the black dog's blood into it.
Then he took out the set of silver needles he usually used, and inserted six silver needles into each of Lan Jianguo's bodies from top to bottom, with the last silver needle inserted into their right thigh.
The two old men trembled all over, their breathing seemed to have stopped, and their bodies were as stiff as wood.
"You, what are you doing? Why are they two so out of breath?" Ellie asked in panic.
"It's not that they have run out of energy, it's because I used talismans and silver needles to seal the energy points all over their bodies. Now all the muscles on their bodies are rigid and all the evil energy can't get out."
"What should we do now? Will they be fine after a long time?" Lan Yue asked anxiously.
"We have to get out of this cave within an hour." I answered Lan Yue, while taking out two red ropes and tying up Lan Jianguo and Professor Xu respectively. The knot was right at the Dantian and tied Got a talisman.
"Brother Sun, Uncle Liu, hurry up, you can go out now."
Sun Cheng and Liu Han grabbed the wooden sticks, and the people behind did not dare to be idle. Everyone worked together to row forward as hard as they could.
Lan Yue sat on the raft, wishing she could grow wings at this moment.
"Xiao Dao, what happened to my dad? Is it a ghost or a monster?" Lan Yue looked at the unconscious Professor Lan and asked worriedly.
"It can be considered a ghost, but it's not quite what you imagined. We can't be sure yet. We'll know after we get out of the cave and take another look!" My voice echoed faintly in the cave.
