"Let's go. All three of you be careful. There are a lot of rocks here. I almost fell and hurt myself before."

After saying that, Ye Feng led the way...

Soon, the group reached the end of the stone path.

Before they even got close to the treehouse, they could smell an extremely unpleasant, rotten stench.

"Hmm~"

Everyone quickly covered their collars and pulled them to their noses, trying to escape the stench.

Even so, the smell still seeped through their clothes and into their nostrils, causing them to vomit repeatedly.

"What's that smell? It stinks so bad!?"

Liu Sisi covered her nose with both hands, but she still couldn't hide the smell.

"Did something die here?"

"Could it be an animal?"

"It didn't smell this bad when it left..."

...

Everyone was confused about what was going on. Ye Feng also covered his nose, but his expression didn't seem to show much surprise.

This wasn't the first time he'd smelled this stench; it was back when Fu Changxiong and Qi Xiaoyan were ambushed and injured…

When he went out to fish for arapaima, he used the liver of a carcass.

This smell is exactly the same as that of the corpse; what else could it be but a human?

He immediately took out a handful of leaves from his bag, distributed them to everyone, and used them to plug their nostrils.

"Have you all forgotten the 200,000 increase yesterday?"

After he finished speaking, everyone suddenly remembered…

"You were right, someone really did fall into your trap."

So, your treehouse…

At this point, Tang Weiwei subconsciously took off her bow and cautiously peered into the dark surroundings.

"Don't worry, there's no one around."

Ye Feng patted him, signaling him to relax.

"If someone were to take over my treehouse, would they still put up with this stench? They would probably have thrown the body far away by now."

Follow my lead; I've dug quite a few traps.

After he finished speaking, he continued walking forward, and in less than 5 minutes, the group arrived at the treehouse.

The nauseating stench grew even stronger…

Ye Feng saw the pit in the lawn and, enduring the stench, walked over to it…

Upon closer inspection, a human corpse covered in maggots, whose race was indistinguishable, appeared before him.

"Ugh~"

Ye Feng's throat twitched uncontrollably, and he immediately vomited up the undigested jerky he had eaten while traveling.

Who would have thought that the corpse of the most intelligent animal on Earth could smell so bad after death...

It's no exaggeration to say that Ye Feng felt like someone was constantly scratching his throat.

Even after vomiting until there was nothing left, he continued to dry heave.

"Nobita! Quick... quick, take out the cane!"

He walked back while vomiting, and grabbed the rattan cane...

He immediately tied a loop on it and handed it back to Fu Changxiong.

"Quick, put this sheath... ugh~ around the corpse's neck, let's pull him out."

"ah!?"

Fu Changxiong's facial features contorted in reluctance.

I feel nauseous even standing this far away; if I got any closer, I'd probably faint from the stench…

"What do you mean, 'huh'?! Hurry up and go!"

Ye Feng gave him a push...

Helpless, he had no choice but to do as he was told.

Fu Changxiong took a deep breath, ran over quickly, and slowly climbed down into the trap.

With a furrowed brow, he brushed away the insects from the skull with his hand, slipped the rope around the corpse's cervical vertebrae, and immediately climbed out.

They looked as anxious as if they had seen a ghost.

Afterwards, with the combined efforts of several people, they slowly pulled out the skeletal corpse, which was then dragged more than 200 meters away by Fu Changxiong and Qi Xiaojie and disposed of.

As soon as the body disappeared, the surrounding air became much fresher.

Everyone finally stopped gagging…

Only then did Tang Weiwei and the other two realize just how luxurious the treehouse in front of them was.

It is a circular building nearly 6 meters off the ground, with its outer walls covered in mud, leaving almost no gaps.

Compared to the treehouse where they had lived for many days, this house was practically a luxurious sky villa.

"Wow!……"

The Zhan brothers, Pengwu and Zhan Pengwu, stared with their mouths slightly agape, their expressions revealing undisguised shock.

"Brother Feng, your treehouse is so beautiful! How did you build it? Can you teach me?"

"This house is amazing, hey buddy. It must be at least 6 meters off the ground, right? How did you manage to level the floor like that?"

When Vivi and I first started building our house, the uneven floor was a real headache.

Tang Weiwei was also incredibly shocked. He had built treehouses before, so he naturally understood the level of Ye Feng's house.

"You're such a jack-of-all-trades! You can do everything!"

"That's... my brother Feng's hands-on skills and creativity are unparalleled; there's nothing he can't do."

Liu Sisi didn't miss any opportunity to praise Ye Feng, but Ye Feng ignored their flattery and went straight to the bottom of the wooden stairs.

He has more important things to do now.

Cairnster is arriving tomorrow, and he's unsure if this elite soldier will immediately attack him upon arrival.

However, the idea of ​​being prepared for unforeseen circumstances and taking precautions was always ingrained in his bones.

He had to prepare in advance; tonight, he would polish and assemble all forty-odd arrows.

"We can talk about those things later. An even stronger enemy is coming tomorrow, so we need to act quickly!"

After saying that, he climbed up, and the others followed closely behind.

Perhaps because they were back in a familiar place, the two little monkeys couldn't wait to climb out of the bag.

It started jumping and hopping around the house with boundless joy...

Ye Feng took out the stove from Fu Changxiong's bag, lit the fire, and the room was instantly illuminated.

The two women immediately opened the window to let in some fresh air...

After being away from home for more than ten days, a thin layer of fine dust has settled on the floor.

But everyone felt incredibly comfortable; the treehouse gave them an overwhelming sense of security.

My tense and uneasy heart finally settled down.

After two full days of travel, plus the fighting just now, they were already exhausted.

Ye Feng, in particular, lay sprawled out on the ground.

Looking back on today's experience, it was incredibly dangerous. If he hadn't discovered Watanabe in time...

That knife wound would have killed him...

It wasn't that he wasn't cautious enough, but rather that the environment and weather conditions made it impossible to guard against anything.

Ye Feng had no idea what crazy things these people would do for freedom and the grand prize.

But for now, he has no choice but to accept the challenge.

Once Chou Chou sends out the map tomorrow, it will be like we're in the open while the enemy is in the shadows.

At that time, survival will be a constant threat; as soon as you leave the treehouse, you may face ambushes or sneak attacks at any time.

Even at your own doorstep, you're not necessarily safe.

"Damn it! These bastards on the show are really trying to kill me... What should I do next?"

He sat up irritably and scratched his greasy hair, which was already matted together.
