"I'll go ahead and see if there's any poison." Gu Liu was afraid it was poisonous miasma, so he suggested leading the way.
"You come with me, Dilong and Wangxing will cover our retreat." Hu Lin commanded.
"Can you do it?" Gu Liu couldn't help but ask.
"If two fists could not defeat four hands, I would not have gone to find you." Hu Lin glanced at Gu Liu.
Gu Liu was still resentful of her behavior towards him in the life-and-death arena, and wanted to find a chance to get back at her.
"Ha, you're awesome!" Gu Liu said in a sarcastic tone.
Hu Lin took this opportunity to say: “Follow me, I will be the commander.
You have to obey my orders, otherwise I don't mind letting you stay here forever."
"No problem." Ji Renhui was the first to respond, followed by others.
Gu Liu was still somewhat unwilling to accept it, but he had to obey the majority.
The team entered the primeval forest.
The mist is non-toxic, but as we go deeper into the forest, the mist gradually becomes thicker without us noticing.
The six people each observed the situation nearby and served as a fortress for each other.
"Stop." Hu Lin called out, and the team stopped. "How many meters deep have we gone?"
"Ten kilometers." Dilong replied.
Hu Lin's eyes narrowed, "Rest here and leave at night."
They walked ten kilometers, but the surrounding terrain looked more and more familiar.
But it didn't feel like it was just wandering around here. There were no traces of formations or animal activity here.
Then she asked Gu Liu, "Are you sure this fog is not poisonous?"
"Of course." Gu Liu affirmed.
Hu Lin was still worried, "Pay more attention to your surroundings. The poisonous substance may not be the fog."
"Are you too suspicious?" Gu Liu was a little unhappy when Hu Lin questioned his ability.
"Dilong, you tell him." Hu Lin didn't want to waste time talking to him.
"Gu Liu, please stop showing off your temper.
We walked ten kilometers, but look at the surroundings? Doesn’t it look familiar? "
Dilong complained speechlessly.
Everyone else in the team noticed something was wrong, except Gu Liu, who still refused to accept Hu Lin.
Gu Liu was shocked when he heard the words of Dilong, who was a few years older than him.
He didn't expect that they would encounter trouble as soon as they came in.
"Earth Dragon, has the geology changed along the way we've been here?"
"No."
So they've been going in circles?
“Everyone should be alert and pay attention to the surroundings at all times.
This is not the maze of your clan. There are no traces of formations around.
Besides, I'm sure you've all noticed that we didn't see a single animal along the way, let alone any signs of animal life."
Hu Lin said loudly.
They are all top talents in the tribe, all have more or less mission experience, and their keen perception of danger is different from that of ordinary people.
"Indeed, it's too quiet here." Ji Renhui looked at the lush vegetation around her with vigilance in her eyes.
Even the sound of birds and insects could not be heard, as if there were no living things in this place except for them.
Stargazer looked at the fog that was getting thicker as the sky darkened, and said with a worried look on his face, "With this fog, I'm afraid we won't be able to watch the stars on the ground."
"Then let's go up." Hu Lin looked around and saw trees that were dozens of meters high.
"Then you can meet me on the ground at any time."
"No problem." Qiu Jing agreed, his attitude was optimistic, "Let's eat something first."
Some people were resting, some were eating, and some were taking turns to keep watch, waiting for the night to come.
Most of the people who came to look for Zhou Huaijing before probably disappeared here.
But along the way, we didn't see a single body and didn't find any clues.
This primeval forest is indeed strange.
During the day, the compass only moves slightly, and it feels like there is some error in the direction, but it is not a big problem.
After dark, the compass kept spinning and was completely unusable.
"There's something wrong with the magnetic field here." Hu Lin said to Wang Xing.
He is good at stargazing and must know this.
The fog was thick and the figures of several people were looming in the fog.
"My intuition tells me that it will be dangerous to go up." Wangxing replied.
"Bring out the rope and let's tie ourselves together to avoid getting lost." Hu Lin said, and several people did as he asked.
The fog is now so thick that it seems to be solid.
"Wangxing, if you encounter danger and can't defeat it, come down. Don't get separated." Hu Lin instructed.
For members of the clan, having skills is a plus, but fighting ability is a must. Those who do not meet the requirements will not be allowed to come out and embarrass themselves.
Therefore, she was not worried about their personal safety.
If we get separated, that would be a big problem.
Not only will the team lose its elite members, but his own life will also be in danger.
"I'm going up." Wangxing said, jumping up and climbing up the tree.
The few people on the ground had tied themselves up and were waiting for news from Wangxing.
However, after a while, the voice of Wangxing cursing was heard from the sky.
There was also the sound of something moving quickly.
"alert."
Hu Lin grasped his saber and made an attacking gesture, and the others also took out their weapons.
Ji Ren drew a Tang sword, Qiu Jing drew a short spear, Gu Liu drew a javelin, Di Long drew a law enforcement stick, and Wang Xing, who went up to observe the stars, drew a bow and arrow and a Zhuge crossbow.
In a few moments, Wangxing landed on the ground, and following him came a python as thick as an arm.
However, the python had one eye blinded by the Zhuge Crossbow in Wangxing's hand, so the python was now furious.
"Let me tell you, there are pythons on the trees above our heads." Wang Xing described what he saw on the trees.
When he reached a place where he could see the stars, he stopped to stargaze.
