Chapter 26 - Blue Point Vine Tree
But until now, the hyena king has not appeared once, and everyone couldn't help but look around with wary faces.
I lowered my head and looked under the big tree. There were already many hyena carcasses under the big tree, at least there were more than twenty.
Li Kun looked at the group of hyenas below who were still eyeing us, and said to me: "Damn it, why don't these things leave?"
I also frowned. The hyenas were still roaring at us and seemed to have no intention of leaving.
At this moment, I heard a few roars coming from below.
Then everyone looked down and saw that a hyena king who had not appeared finally revealed his figure.
But everyone looked confused, and the hyena group didn't even look at the corpse on the ground.
After just roaring a few times, the hyena king turned around and left with his remaining thirty or so ordinary hyenas, as if those who died were not his compatriots.
Seeing this, everyone looked surprised.
Li Kun turned to me and said: "Old Liu, doesn't this thing want to see us killed? We killed so many of its kind and turned around and left without even looking at it?"
I also have a confused look on my face now, it seems like something is wrong with the Hyena King.
At this time, Cheng Bingdao on the side turned to look at the Hyena King, and then he discovered something.
He turned to us and said: "This hyena king seems to be using our hands to get rid of hyenas that threaten his status, so as to maintain his status in the group."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Xu Tian frowned and said, "I can't believe this hyena king is so smart?"
Cheng boldly nodded and said: "Looking at the size of this hyena, it is at least three or four hundred years old. I'm afraid its wisdom is not much worse than ours. I guess this hyena king should have been seen many years ago.
Human beings are powerful, so we must use our hands to eliminate dissidents and consolidate our position."
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that no wonder the Hyena King turned around and left without looking back after so many of his men died. It turned out that there were other reasons.
But thinking that this hyena king actually had such a smart mind, everyone couldn't help but feel a little panicked.
What we are encountering now is this kind of hyena pack. If we encounter a wolf pack here...
Thinking of this, everyone shuddered.
Looking at the group of hyenas disappearing below, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
I lay directly on the tree trunk and began to rest for a while.
Looking at the blue sky and the summer-like heat here, I am already sweating profusely.
I opened my collar and fanned myself, and Xu Tian said to everyone: "Let's go down first, and then hurry up and get out of here. It's too unsafe here."
After hearing what Xu Tian said, everyone nodded.
Then everyone started to climb down from the tree one by one.
After everyone jumped down, Captain Fang and Saji walked straight to Taki's body.
Everyone sighed as they looked at the corpse that had been trampled by cattle at the base of the tower.
A young man who was fine just now left within a short time of arriving here.
Captain Fang and Saji squatted on the ground and picked up Taki's bodies one by one.
I walked up to the two of them and patted their shoulders. For a moment, I couldn't say any words of comfort.
I shook my head and glanced at everyone.
I randomly picked up the engineering shovel and started digging a hole on the spot.
After everyone had been busy for a while, it was already afternoon. It was already late, exactly two o'clock in the afternoon.
After looking at the time on my watch, I stepped forward to comfort the room captain, Saji.
Then I took out a piece of relatively white cloth from my backpack and wrapped Taki's body.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the three of us, Li Kun, Hu Dalong, and we sent off this young man Taki in the most rigorous way possible.
Li Kun found a small wooden board nearby, and I took out the soul-killing knife from my arms and carved the name of the tower base on the wooden board.
Everyone bowed to the tombstone at the base of the tower, and the worship ceremony was completely completed.
Looking at the spiritual tablets at the base of the tower, I felt sour in my heart.
First it was Lao Jiang, and now it was Taki, a young man in his twenties.
I know this Sarita primeval forest can be dangerous, but right now I really don’t want to move forward.
If I continue to move forward, I don’t know who will be next. I don’t want to continue to have such a worship ceremony.
When Xu Tian saw me like this, he knew that I must be feeling uncomfortable.
Xu Tian walked up to me and patted my shoulder without saying anything. Now Xu Tian didn't know how to comfort me.
Looking at the ranking of tower bases, I shook my head and sighed softly.
Then he turned around and said to everyone: "Brothers, we have not yet succeeded in our destiny. We still need to work hard. Although we will definitely be injured, we do everything for the country. Even if we die, we will be the heroes of the country. Now we
The unknown enemy has not yet appeared, but I believe that our trip will be successful, and the deaths of Lao Jiang and Taki will not be in vain."
After hearing what I said, Captain Fang and Taki raised their hands to wipe their tears.
Then Captain Fang said: "Yes, the two of them will not die in vain. We must successfully bring out the country's cultural relics during this trip so that those tomb robbers will never come back."
Hearing this, everyone nodded repeatedly.
I turned around and said to everyone: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. If we delay any longer, we may encounter the hyena group. Let's hurry up and set off now. We must find the tomb of the Zari tribe before dark."
After saying that, I took a step forward and led everyone towards the unknown area ahead and continued to move forward.
Captain Fang and Saji Dujun now have no ammunition.
This was definitely not possible, so everyone began to distribute their ammunition to several people.
After dividing the ammunition equally, everyone walked while looking at the road ahead.
Ahead is still a flat grassland, with only a few big trees standing in the grassland.
Everyone had already passed through the bushes, and because they were afraid of encountering the yellow-footed hornet again, they could only choose to bypass the bushes.
Li Kun complained: "If I had known this place would be like this, I would have brought some of that insecticide. It is no more effective than a gun. It kills all the people with one spray. How worry-free. Now we have to
Walking around makes me exhausted."
Hearing what Li Kun said, everyone couldn't help laughing.
I looked at the large forest that appeared in front of me and smiled bitterly in my heart. The location of the grassland was much easier to walk than in the forest. The forest was not only overgrown with weeds, but also the ground was muddy.
It's just like it's just rained. Every step you step on is covered in mud.
Seeing everyone slowly walking towards the forest, they couldn't help but already picked up their guns and pulled the bolts.
You may encounter those hyena groups again sometime, because those hyenas have also entered this forest.
But fortunately we bypassed that place and took a detour from another location, otherwise we would have probably encountered it by now, so we still have to be careful in everything.
The moment they entered the forest, everyone was stunned for a moment.
What I saw were huge vines in front of me. These huge vines were wrapped around the bodies of those towering trees.
Each vine is at least twenty centimeters in diameter, and looks as thick as Li Kun's thigh.
Seeing these huge vines twisting back and forth around the tree, everyone couldn't help but feel dazed for a while.
Li Kun, Hu Dalong, and the three of us walked in front of a vine. The vine looked familiar, and then the three of us took a closer look.
Many years ago, Li Kun, Hu Dalong, and we also visited the primitive forestland once before, and we also saw this kind of vine.
But those vines are much thinner than the ones we see now, and there is no such terrifying diameter as the vines here.
These vines are all grown from the huge blue-spotted vines surrounding the big trees.
Although the blue-spotted vine tree is called a vine tree, it does not look like a big tree, but a relatively rare plant in primitive woodlands.
This kind of vine tree does not have bark like that. Its whole body is extremely smooth and green.
But the whole body of the blue-spotted vine is covered with blue spots. The thicker the vine, the bigger the spots.
The spots on the blue-spotted vine trees here are almost the size of an adult's hand.
The blue-spotted vine tree is like the ivy we see in our homes.
The conditions for its survival are extremely harsh, and it must grow in a relatively humid place with light all year round.
Moreover, it must grow around such a big tree, relying on the tree body surrounding the big tree to continue to grow and survive.
Everyone looked into the forest at this time. There were many blue-spotted vines growing around all the big trees in front.
The huge vines of the Blue Dot Vine tree are wrapped around the trunk of the big tree.
And this has caused some of the many straight trees to bend down.
Blue-spotted vines were already spread in front of everyone, and thick vines began to cross back and forth on the big trees. Some roads were already blocked.
We have seen this kind of vine tree Li Kun once, and this kind of vine tree also has a name, called living vine.
The name "living vine" is not random, but the local people have given it such a name since ancient times.
Because the blue-spot vine seems to be alive. As long as the position of the vine is damaged, the blue-spot vine will come to life, swinging the huge vine to beat the surrounding things to death or tie them up and suffocate them to death.
The corpses of living people turned into their own rehydration fluid and merged with the vines.
Li Kun, Hu Dalong and we looked at each other and saw the look of horror in each other's eyes.
