Chapter 12 Fainting is just a slap in the face(1/2)
After eating and drinking, they set out again. Entering the jungle and accepting stewing. Of course, if someone regards this experience as a sauna, then sweat soaks the clothes, the clothes stick to the body, the fabric is under the armpits, and the intimate contact between the skin between the hips is not necessarily so annoying. But this is difficult to do, just like a naughty child who is difficult to convince himself to fall in love with reading and writing—even completely impossible.
It was noon in a blink of an eye, and it had been more than twenty-four hours since they came to this world.
Because most of the time is spent in the jungle, people gradually lose the freshness of the beginning. Some even hate this place, a wasteland abandoned by civilization.
There should be no more annoying place in the world than here. I will never come to this place if I kill you! Damn mosquitoes and this damn grass!
Someone was cursing all the way, as if he wanted to vent all the resentment of the middle-aged bald old man. Cao Nian walked behind this man, and looked at him without stopping for a moment. His saliva flew everywhere, and he was suddenly furious.
This person is really hateful, like a fly that keeps flying in Cao Nian's ear, making an upsetting sound. Cao Nian can't even calm down and study Instructor Li's knife.
Can you shut your damn mouth?
What did you say?
The man turned his head in surprise.
I'll shut you up!
What are you...
When the man saw Cao Nian's hand pressing on the knife, he seemed to think of something, and immediately closed his mouth and did not dare to look at Cao Nian.
You're ruthless.
The man turned his head and ran two steps in a panic, widening the distance with Cao Nian.
Zhang Yang walked behind Cao Nian and counted proudly: "Brother Cao is mighty! This man is just a shameless person. He thought he was here for a trip, so he kept talking nonsense. I was almost annoyed!"
Xu Nuo shook his head without objection.
According to the guide of the map, I walked for another three hours and finally arrived at the edge of the jungle.
Oh my God!
Buddha blessed us, we wouldn't go into this ghost place! Never! I would rather walk in the jungle for a whole day!
No. 2 is difficult to change in nature, and whenever you encounter something, you start to keep muttering.
But this time Cao Nian did not go against him.
Because a swamp appeared in front of everyone.
A forbidden zone of life.
The green dead air and the gray mist condensed over the swamp. From a distance, it looked like highly toxic chemicals acting on each other. These gases should have been loaded into iron cans with skulls, and they were hovering in the sky, staring at them like a scattered vulture. The temperature was around 27 or 8 degrees Celsius, but the entire swamp was bubbling, like a pot of stew that had been boiled for too long and rotten. In fact, the swamp was a pot of hodgepodge, because
To this end, you can find the corpses of various animals and plants - they all sink at the bottom of the swamp, and the microorganisms are feasting. There are many trees around the swamp, but they cannot tell what species it is, because their leaves have withered and corroded by the acid mist, leaving only the charred trunks. After being burned by wildfire, ordinary trees seem to be skeletons resurrected from the cemetery, wavering to everyone with their teeth and claws to drive away their uninvited guests.
This is not a friendly place because its friends only have toxins, slaughter and death.
Why do we have to go here?
Although some people raised questions at the beginning, the instructors did not explain much.
If you don’t want to follow the team, rookie, then please leave on your own, I will never stop you!
The instructors were determined and even without any room for negotiation, and everyone was silent. Although the swamp was dangerous, at least the instructors were protecting them, but if they left the team, they would be dead. The two evils were the least, and the two interests were the most important. Everyone still understood this principle.
"Wow, what does this mean? I actually chose a swamp! Look at the gloomy appearance around me, I just hang the sign "Don't enter the stranger" around me. Is this really not dangerous?" Although Zhang Yang regarded himself as a "game house", he was not a dull man. On the contrary, he said a lot and even talked a little: "Are the instructors blind? Or am I too sensitive? No, no, there must be danger here. Look, the instructors are more careful than ever before."
Communication can bring people closer, and this sentence is true.
Cao Nian has a good impression of this young man who is nagging along the way: "Where did you get so much nonsense? Just follow me! I've been walking almost halfway through this. Could it be that you have to change your direction? Or are you planning to give up?"
Zhang Yang scratched his head: "I always feel something is wrong here... You know, the swamps and other places in the game have always been places of right and wrong. Swamps, volcanoes, and desert temples, I seem to see a dungeon calling!"
Cao Nian looked dark. It turned out that this guy had been worried about this. It seemed that this guy had received a lot of poison from the game.
Xu Nuo said softly: "Actually, I think Zhang Yang is right. There is indeed something strange here, and it is a bit too quiet..."
Quiet?
How could this place where even beasts dare not enter are not quiet? If you want to give an example, then the swamp can be compared to mass graves and the burial place for animals. This place that is even more gloomy than a cemetery will be strange if it becomes lively.
No. 21 was staggering with legs, and a duck was walking at the end and lamented: "Oh, who said it was no? I was afraid that I would accidentally fall into the mud... Oh, no, no! I'm going to be exhausted, I have to take a break."
Before he could squat down, Cao Nian walked over directly from the front, grabbed the fat man's collar, pulled him forward, and cursed: "You alone dragged the three of us down, so you have to be at a loss! You dead boy! Don't pretend for me!"
This sentence has two meanings. One is to Xu Nuo and Zhang Yang listen, and the deeper one is of course a warning to No. 21.
The fat man shouted and spared his life: "I understand, I understand! I'll release my collar and I can't breathe."
Cao Nian shook his hand.
He was about to move forward, but was grabbed by No. 21's hand.
"There is something strange in the swamp, don't be careless!" The fat man whispered in words that only the two of them could hear.
"real?"
Cao Nian understood that the fat man pretended to behave and turned out to be looking for an opportunity to explain the matter to him.
"I have an ominous feeling."
The fat man lowered his head and said mysteriously.
Although Cao Nian is no longer an atheist, his premonition of something more mysterious than metaphysics made him ask: "Premonition? Is it reliable?"
"I'm a killer, do you think it's reliable?"
Cao Nian thought about it and said, "Then why would you die if you are so powerful?"
"There is a reason why I die in the real world!"
Perhaps Cao Nian poked the pain point, No. 21 suddenly became uneasy and his fat face was slightly stiff.
Cao Nian smiled: "So many people have died in the real world, who has no reason?"
"Do you don't believe me?"
The killer clenched his fists all at once, as if he was about to tear his face apart.
"I don't believe you? Not... Since you feel that there is danger, why don't you just say it directly? It's going to be so mysterious."
"Will you be alert if I don't do this?"
"That's true... But I don't understand, what are you hiding? Why can I know your identity, but they can't."
"You will know from now on."
“Eggy people make a lot of trouble.”
"screw you!"
The fat man pushed his rough hand gently, and Cao Nian felt a great force coming from his waist, and he took two big steps forward uncontrollably.
The formation changed back to its original state, Cao Nian, Fatty, and one after another, sandwiched Zhang Yang and Xu Nuo in the middle.
The road under their feet was black hard soil, like some kind of rock. On both sides of the road were mud with unknown depth, bubbles were bubbling.
This place is indeed too quiet, but the danger is really not obvious.
There is not even a ghost in this place, what dangers can it be?
Cao Nian looked around in confusion. He was very confused and irritable. As the saying goes, three people became tigers. He originally thought that there would be no danger if the instructors dared to take this path. But now everyone around him said that there was something strange here, especially on No. 21, and this guy's words made him unable to calm down again.
He felt a sleeping lion lying beside him. It was very hungry, as if he had never had a full meal in his life, but it had not woken up for a long time. It would be great if he could kill it in his sleep, but Cao Nian could not see where the lion was. But there was no doubt that the moment it woke up, it would definitely show its true form and pounce on Cao Nian.
Damn it!
If possible, he would rather this lion wake up early, so that he could suffer less.
"Wow--"
A sound similar to a baby's cry suddenly came from a distance. The sound also had an echo, like a frog crying in the bottom of a well.
"Be careful, everyone!"
The instructors with sufficient experience changed their faces, but instead of stopping, they gave everyone a gesture of keeping quiet.
Dingdengdeng—
Everyone went from briskly to trotting, and the team was speeding up. The marching ants were speeding up, and 90% of the probability was that they were attracted by the food in front, and 10% were that there was danger behind. Similarly, the instructors' move undoubtedly showed that there was danger around them.
"Don't make a sound, just follow us."
Even when everyone heard this, they were frightened and confused, they did not dare to say a word or say a word.
“Wow wow wow wow—”
The sounds around were getting denser and denser, one after another, but they always maintained the highest tone, and the frequency was so high that it was shocking. The sound came from all directions, making Cao Nian feel like he was in a hospital baby room, and thirty or forty children were crying loudly in his ears! This sound was a torture for people, so that Cao Nian was sweating. This was not the cry of a child, but the cry of a demon! Cao Nian had a feeling that the guy who could make such a sound must have an ugly appearance, a pig-like nostril, and must have fangs and triangular eyes, like a poisonous snake.
Cao Nian felt even more and more panicked because he had a good imagination of horror things, and even he himself never felt it. The monster was like standing in front of him, and the shape of his body, skin color, texture, color of his hair, and the finest skin marks seemed to be vivid in his mind.
God, why didn’t he have such good phenomena when he was in school before? Cao Nian cursed in his heart. Could it be that his prayer was fulfilled! The dangerous lion woke up? Why is it that the good ones are not effective, the bad ones are not effective!
Before he knew it, a pair of hands appeared where Cao Nian could see it. He turned his head slightly and saw Xu Nuo pinching the corner of his clothes.
"It's okay. We'll be able to get out of this swamp right away."
Although he was scared very much, the man's nature kept him calm in front of Xu Nuo.
"Um···"
