Chapter 545 Lost in the Mountains(2/3)
Lin Yu smiled faintly at him, thinking that the bald man was probably making up stories to deceive them, and said with a smile, "Maybe this thing you encountered is the source of spreading the virus, and what you said is so mysterious, if we encounter this It turns out that it is a new creature that has never been seen in the world, and then the United Nations will give us an award!"
Baldy heard the ridicule in Lin Yu's words, sneered and said, "I hope you can be so free and easy when you encounter that thing!"
After saying that, the bald man turned his head again and walked quickly towards the dense forest.
Shuanzi quickly followed and asked in a low voice, "Brother Bald, is what you said true or false?"
The bald man pulled him over and whispered a few words into his ear. Shuanzi's expression suddenly changed, he swallowed hard and nodded vigorously.
Annie looked at the dense forest around her, panicked in her heart, and asked Lin Yu in a low voice, "Hey, do you think what he said is true or false..."
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, even if there is a ghost, I will still have a way to deal with him!"
Lin Yu smiled lightly at Annie and said disapprovingly.
He himself is a ghost, so how could he be afraid of ghosts? Therefore, Baldy's words, no matter whether they are true or false, cannot deceive him.
Because they started early in the morning and were focused on their journey, they arrived at the edge of the deep mountain forest on the map around ten o'clock in the morning. Before entering, Baldy asked Lin Yu again if he really wanted to go in. .
After receiving Lin Yu's affirmative answer, Bald Man immediately walked quickly inside.
At first, this forest is not much different from the forest outside, but the further you go, you can find that the trees on this mountain are taller and thicker, the vegetation is more thick, dense, and the species are richer. , it feels like a primeval forest, very much like those inaccessible deep mountains and old forests in the Northeast.
In the final analysis, it may be because almost no one has entered this forest, so the natural appearance is relatively well preserved and has not been damaged by manpower.
And as Lin Yu expected, there were many species in this forest that they had never seen before, including green crickets that were as big as the palm of their hand, and tree frogs with transparent and colorful bodies.
Anne's eyes widened when she saw so many rare species, and she hurriedly carefully put these suspicious species into the metal box.
While Annie and Lin Yu were studying, Bald Man kept looking around vigilantly, knowing that although the forest looked peaceful and quiet, there were dangers hidden everywhere.
Shuanzi shrank his neck, followed the bald man, and carefully watched everything around him.
The four people walked and walked, and before they knew it, it was already past noon, and they had already entered three or four kilometers into the forest, so they stopped to rest and eat.
After Bald Man and Shuan Zi finished eating the compressed biscuits, they immediately drank cold water. Anne was just about to tell them that it was not good to drink so much cold water after eating, but they both drank all the water in their respective bottles.
The bald man lowered his head and glanced at the watch on his wrist, and said in a deep voice, "We have a long way to go from here, and there is no sun today, so it gets dark early, so we have to go back as soon as possible, otherwise we won't be able to make it back after dark. You have to speed up, in an hour we will turn around and go back!"
Lin Yu raised his head and glanced at the sky full of clouds through the gaps in the trees. Seeing that what the bald man said was reasonable, he nodded and agreed.
After walking for a while, Shuanzi immediately held his stomach and screamed, his head full of cold shouts, and he sucked in the cold air and said, "My stomach hurts, you go first, I will find a place to poop!"
When Annie heard what Shuan Zi said was so vulgar, she couldn't help but frown and look at him with disgust.
After saying that, Shuanzi turned around and walked into the grass beside him.
"Wait! I'm coming with you! If you go by yourself, you're courting death!"
The bald man called him coldly, and then turned to Lin Yu and Annie and said, "If you two want to be convenient for a while, you have to have someone watching around, because there are many grasses and leaves here that are the same color." If you are bitten by poisonous insects and snakes, you will die or be disabled!"
What he said was true. Lin Yu also noticed when he came here that there were many insects whose bodies were the same color as tree trunks and leaves. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell them apart at all, and some of them did contain certain toxins.
In fact, Baldy's words mainly refer to Anne, because when a man urinates, he stands up, so he doesn't have to worry about being bitten on the buttocks. There is only a risk of being bitten when defecating, but women are different...
Anne couldn't help but turn pale when she heard this, but fortunately, in order to avoid being inconvenient in the dense forest these days, she had controlled her eating and drinking very well. Basically, she would do it after returning to the military camp.
"Okay, then you go with him, let's walk a little further!"
Lin Yu nodded and told Baldy and the others to pay attention to safety.
"You guys try to slow down and don't go too far. I'll catch up with you soon and we have to go back!"
The bald man looked at his watch again and ordered.
"good!"
Lin Yu agreed, and then raised his feet to leave. Suddenly he remembered something, and immediately called out to the bald man, waved to him, and said, "Leave the bracelet to me for safekeeping first!"
The bald man's expression suddenly changed, he looked at Lin Yu coldly and said, "You can't trust me?!"
"We have only met a few times in total. I want to say that I believe you. Do you believe it?!"
Lin Yu smiled faintly at him and said.
The bald man snorted coldly, then handed the bracelet in his arms to Lin Yu, and then turned around and took Shuanzi for convenience.
Anne was relieved when she saw Lin Yu asking for the bracelet. With Baldy's money-grubbing character, Baldy would not leave them alone as long as the bracelet was in their hands.
Lin Yu took Annie and continued walking inside, but at a very slow speed to ensure that the bald man could catch up soon.
But they had been gone for more than half an hour, and the bald man still hadn't arrived. Lin Yu couldn't help but glanced at his watch in confusion. Seeing that it was almost two o'clock, he was confused. It had been so long, why hadn't he arrived yet? What kind of diarrhea is this?
Lin Yu raised his head and looked into the depths of the dark forest, frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "No, we can't go further in. Let's go back to find them!"
Lin Yu immediately turned around and walked back with Annie.
Since they had only gone a few hundred meters away in total, they quickly found the place where they had just parted, but the surroundings were quiet and there was no one around.
"Bald man! Shuanzi!"
Lin Yu frowned and shouted toward the depths of the grass where Bald Man and Shuanzi entered, but there was no movement inside.
"Bald man! Shuanzi!"
Lin Yu shouted again, and an ominous premonition could not help but arise in his heart.
"He...will they leave?!"
Anne also turned pale at this time and asked in a low voice.
"It shouldn't be..."
Lin Yu frowned and said in confusion, "They only took 50,000 yuan. Compared with this bracelet, it is not worth mentioning!"
Just now, Lin Yu was worried that Bald Man would abandon him and Anne, so he asked for the bracelet. Even for this bracelet, Bald Man would not abandon him and Anne. In this way, Bald Man would gain nothing.
Moreover, Bald Man's hatred against Lin Yu and Annie has not reached the point of killing each other, so Lin Yu does not think Bald Man will leave them alone.
"Annie, wait here, I'll go in and take a look!"
Lin Yu said to Annie, and then turned around to walk into the grass, but Annie suddenly grabbed him and said tremblingly: "Hey, don't leave me!"
Seeing this, Lin Yu held her hand tightly and whispered: "Then hold my hand and follow me!"
Then Lin Yu led Annie to step on the weeds and slowly walked into the grass inside.
But although there were traces of being stepped on in the entire grass, there was not a single soul.
Lin Yu led Annie through the grass, following the traces left by Baldy and Zhuan, and suddenly saw the sound of running water in front of him, and then saw a stream two or three meters wide coming from a high place. The gurgling flow moved into the distance, while the traces of the bald man and the embolus suddenly disappeared.
"These two bastards might really abandon us and leave!"
Although Lin Yu didn't want to admit this fact, he had to admit it.
Annie glanced at the direction of the stream, and said in a trembling voice, "He, tell me, is there any possibility that they heard some strange noise when they were convenient, and then followed it to find it, and then... …”
She recalled the story that Bald Man had told before he came, and her body couldn't help but trembled like chaff. She guessed that Bald Man and Shuanzi were probably killed by this mysterious thing.
Lin Yu frowned and looked around, feeling that what Annie said was somewhat possible.
He took a deep breath, letting the energy sink into his Dantian, and then he drank it out suddenly using the Qigong method, and said in a deep voice: "Bald man! Shuanzi!"
His dull voice surged into the dense woods like thunder, surprising a group of birds, but there was still no response.
Then Lin Yu shouted a few more times, and the two of them waited by the creek for a while, but still didn't see the slightest sign of anyone.
"No, we have to go back!"
Lin Yu lowered his head and glanced at his watch. Seeing that it was already past two o'clock, he quickly called Annie to get ready to go down the mountain. If they didn't go down the mountain, they might not be able to get back before dark.
"He, you...do you know the road?!"
Annie held Lin Yu's hand tightly, with a layer of cold sweat on her palms. She asked with a trembling voice, and a feeling of despair surged in her heart.
Because they were not familiar with this mountain forest, they needed local residents as guides. Without someone to guide them, they would not be able to go back at all.
They were now more than ten kilometers away from the military camp, and the terrain nearby was too complicated. It looked the same no matter where they looked, and it was impossible to tell the direction.
Moreover, the weather was gloomy today, and there was no sun yet. They didn't even have a sign to judge the direction, so the hope of going out was slim.
"You have to try even if you don't know the way. You can't just stay here and wait!"
Lin Yu frowned and immediately took Annie back the way he had just come. However, after walking back, Lin Yu suddenly felt a little strange, as if it was not the place he had just been.
"Annie, are we in the wrong place?!"
Lin Yu looked around and asked doubtfully.
"I...I don't know, it seems..."
Annie said with a somewhat panicked tone.
"Don't worry, let me think about it!"
Lin Yu thought about it based on his memory, and then took Annie down the mountain on the left.
But the dense forest sea seemed to have no end. No matter how they walked, they could not reach the end. Moreover, it was gradually getting dark at this time. Because of the cloudy sky, it got dark earlier than usual, and the woods were dark again. Blocking out the light, before four o'clock, the visible distance in the woods was already less than ten meters.
"No, we can't go any further..."
Seeing that it was getting darker and darker as he walked, and there was no sign of going out, Lin Yu immediately sighed, "It seems we are going to spend the night here..."
"ah?!"
