Chapter 23 Embarkation
Several local natives carried the medicine in close contact with each other and began to lead the way after looking at each other.
There are many vegetation and vines here. As soon as you enter the jungle, you will be covered with the sky and blurry. A group of people will soon lose their direction when they walk in it. The four natives are very familiar with the environment here and move in a direction where there is no place to stay.
At first, Mr. Wu could still grit his teeth and persevere, but as time passed for more than two hours, his feet were empty and his center of gravity was unstable, and he immediately fell forward.
This scene came a bit suddenly and many people didn't notice it.
Li Qianmeng reacted, but she was still a few steps away from Mr. Wu.
A figure appeared in front of Mr. Wu in an instant, as fast as a cheetah, holding Mr. Wu who was about to fall.
"Fortunately, I brought you two with me when I went out this time, otherwise I might have to explain my old bones here."
Mr. Wu looked at the two guards behind him who could not move and were a little surprised.
These two people were specially sent by the base to protect his safety for this trip.
At first, he had no good feelings for these two expressionless guards, but from the moment the other party took action just now, he actually felt an inexplicable familiarity.
"Old Mr. Wu is polite. Protecting your safety is our mission."
The man who had just taken action made a sound for the first time, his voice was as good as gold and iron.
Li Qianmeng glanced at the two of them curiously.
"Mr. Wu, are you okay?"
Looking at Mr. Wu shook her head slightly, her beautiful eyes turned: "What are these two people?"
Mr. Wu hesitated: "I'll talk about this when I go back."
Li Qianmeng nodded.
A small episode ended soon, and two guards walked forward, one left and one right to support Mr. Wu's arm, almost lifting him up, with a very fast speed.
I don’t know how long I walked, but a rapid scream rang out: “Don’t move.”
The young man named Chen Ting was a member of the adventure group. After hearing the call of his companions, he subconsciously turned his head.
A spider that was bigger than an adult male slap was facing downwards, and spider silk was hanging from his butt and fished in the air.
It just happened to collide with Chen Ting, who turned his head.
"ah!"
A tragic and short scream echoed through the rain forest. The person closest to him drew a dagger and pierced the swollen belly of the big spider, and green blood splattered.
"Chen Ting, how are you?"
"Chen Ting..."
Several people with good relationships rushed over to see the situation.
"Fortunately, it's just that ordinary spiders are not very venomous and will not attack humans under normal circumstances. It's just that he happened to fall on him, and this kid is not lucky."
The bald middle-aged Liu Neng stepped forward to check Chen Ting's wound and breathed a sigh of relief.
The injury was not big, but a circle of fine small bubbles appeared around it.
Zhao Hu squatted on the ground and looked carefully at the spider stabbed to death by a dagger.
The whole body is brown and yellow, with shriveled abdomen and long hair on the body.
"That's right, it's just an ordinary brown spider. I don't know why it grows so big. Fortunately, it's not very toxic." He stood up and said after observing for a while.
The people in the guard nodded, and they still dared to believe Zhao Hu's judgment.
Mr. Wu walked forward, and Zhao Hu hurriedly gave up a place to facilitate the other party to observe.
Mr. Wu, who was squatting down, looked carefully.
Zhao Hu scratched his head and said, "Old Wu, is there anything wrong with it?"
"Nothing." Old Wu threw down the fairy stick in his hand that fiddled with the spider corpse.
Chen Ting stood up and was still a little shocked, but he had recovered from his calmness.
People who can join the adventure group generally have a decent psychological quality.
Mr. Wu opened the large backpack behind the guards, took out a bottle of spray from it and sprayed it on everyone.
With the previous lessons, no one is relaxing his vigilance now.
The four indigenous people have flexible legs and feet. They are not as good as walking on flat ground in this jungle, but they are much faster than ordinary people.
One hour later.
This is an extremely wide river with rapid water and dense ancient trees, vegetation and weeds on both sides.
Green is full of vitality.
On the edge of the river bank, rows of old houses appeared in front of everyone, and the houses were covered with fences made of barbed wire.
In the area near the house, an old fishing boat floats on the river bank.
The four natives gestured excitedly.
Since they had arrived at their destination, it was useless to leave these four people. Soon the translator in the adventure group reached a consensus with the other party and waved his hand to let the other party go back.
The guards have already marked them along the way.
The house was surrounded by sharp barbed wire, and the door in the middle was slightly open, and a burly middle-aged man sat in the courtyard.
"Longxia people?"
Seeing Mr. Wu and others, the man said in surprise and said first with his long hair and eyes.
His tone is not standard but does not affect communication with everyone.
Zhao Hu also looked at the other party in surprise: "You can speak Long Xia's language?"
"Little bit, I've been a mercenary for a few years before. I've been to Longxia, which is a very good place."
He has a handsome face, indeed, unlike a native.
"You are going to enter the rainforest at this time?"
“IMHO, this is not a good choice.”
Liu Neng touched his extremely smart head and stood beside Zhao Hu: "Why... why?"
"A week ago, a crew came to me. I didn't plan to go, but the rewards they gave me moved."
"According to the agreed agreement in advance, I should have picked them up the afternoon before yesterday, but when I arrived at the agreed location, there was no one there!"
Jason smiled and showed his big white teeth.
Zhao Hu turned his head and looked at Mr. Wu, and found that there was no change in the other person's face.
"How much does it cost?" The sudden generous attitude made Jason a little surprised, and he didn't understand why these people had to go in at this time.
However, he is also a desperate person at heart, and people like him will not care about the dangers they are driven by interests.
"Twenty-hundred thousand! I want the currency of Longxia Kingdom." Jason spoke.
"The deal." Zhao Hu responded without hesitation.
"Brother...Brother, don't you talk about bargaining?" Not only Liu Neng, but the people in the adventure team were also a little impressed by Zhao Hu's pleasure.
"Haha, I like dealing with people like Longxia like you, and you can set off at any time." Jason's face was full of smiles.
Some of the members of the adventure team who reacted were secretly grateful, so they took advantage of the boat ticket and accepted the love.
"Okay." Zhao Hu waved his hand, and his official organization leaning against Long Xia and the support of the coastal Li family.
Money is not very meaningful to characters like Mr. Wu and Li Qianmeng.
Jason's fishing boat is not small and can easily accommodate dozens of people. The hull of an old fishing boat that is more than ten meters long is covered with sediment and mud at the bottom of the river. A mast stands up and sails rise in the wind. As everyone boards the boat, a boat is immediately filled.
Since the boarding ticket was paid by Zhao Hu, the two best positions in the small cabin were occupied by Mr. Wu and Li Qianmeng.
The few people in the adventure team were dissatisfied but couldn't say anything.

ps: Recently, someone in the group has been listed on the shelves, and the orders have exceeded 3,000. Many people are jealous and jealous. Even my newbie, who has just signed a contract, is so angry that I grinned.
Later we decided to kick him.
