Chapter 193: First Encounter with the Spirit Fox
After seeing Ye Xin's strength, the formation was redistributed. Liu Mingfei led the team in front, while Ye Xin led the team members to be responsible for the pad and continued to walk deeper into the cave.
There were still a few small snakes where the snakes gathered, and they no longer posed any threat to them, but Liu Yong still chopped them in half with a knife.
They did not encounter any other danger along the way, but they saw two pairs of glowing eyes halfway, which flashed twice and then ran away.
No one could see clearly what it was.
Around noon they finally found the exit, which was obviously blocked by something, with only a hint of light coming through the edge.
Liu Mingfei's eyes lit up and he gestured behind him, and the team members behind him stopped immediately.
"arrive?"
Liu Mingfei nodded, pointed to the bright light ahead, and said, "This should be the exit. Shen Fu, see how far we have walked? What is our current altitude?"
Shen Fu picked up the instrument and calculated: "Captain, we have walked a total of 56.8 kilometers, and the current altitude is 875.4 meters. We are up!"
The highest peak of Gangtai Mountain is 1,568 meters. The forbidden area is not at the highest point, but spreads over a large area in the center of Gangtai Mountain.
Shen Fu pointed to a blank area on the map and said, "If we are heading in the right direction, we should be at this location now."
"However, all the instruments failed, and we turned several corners along the way. Now no one can guarantee that the direction is correct."
Ye Xin saw that the area he pointed to was exactly the deepest part of the forbidden area. No matter which direction you approached Gangtai Mountain from, this location was difficult to find.
"Be careful, I'll go see what's up there." Liu Mingfei said as he reached upwards and pushed hard, but it didn't move!
I pushed it upwards again with force, but the pattern still didn't move!
"Hmm? This is a big rock! Bai Muran, come and help me!"
Bai Muran put the pistol into his waist, walked forward and worked together with Liu Mingfei to push the stone, but it still didn't move!
The exit doesn't look very big, so why can't two people open it?
Ye Xin stepped forward and said, "Let's try it together."
Liu Mingfei and Bai Muran worked together, and with the help of Ye Xin's strengthened body, a crack was gradually opened in the boulder.
"Move forward! Be careful! Hold on!" Liu Mingfei's physical strength has reached its limit. Veins on his neck are bulging, muscles in his arms are bulging, and he is still shaking.
Bai Muran gritted his teeth and said, "Almost there! Almost there! Hold on a little longer! Ye Xin, can you do it? If not, change someone else."
Ye Xin said nothing, and followed Liu Mingfei and Bai Muran to move the stone away, revealing a space large enough for one person to enter and exit.
There is still no signal from the instrument.
"Do you think this is a strong magnetic field? Or electromagnetic radiation? If it is a strong magnetic field, then the village is not affected at all. There is no signal at all on the mountain so close to the village!"
"If it's electromagnetic radiation, then where does the electromagnetic radiation come from in this deep forest?"
Liu Yong complained as he put the equipment back into his backpack.
Liu Mingfei stuck his head out and saw nothing but trees all around. If he had to name a landmark, it would be the semicircular cliff 200 meters ahead!
The cliff is no more than 15 meters high, with bare reddish-brown rocks exposed, like a big pot upside down in the jungle.
There was no animal around, not even the chirping of birds. It was so quiet that I could hear my own heartbeat.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Liu Mingfei retreated and said, "This place seems to be different from other places. It's too quiet! It's okay for us to go out, but if we encounter danger, how should we retreat?"
"This jungle is too dense. Everyone, please leave a mark. Leave someone at the cave entrance to guard it. If no one returns after three hours, the person left at the cave entrance will fire a flare to ensure a retreat."
"If anyone gets lost in the jungle, please send out signal flares. If we have the chance, we will not abandon anyone."
This is a forbidden area where no one has been able to get out alive in the past hundred years. Liu Mingfei has to be extremely careful!
After distributing the tools, Li Yanwu stayed at the cave entrance while the others set out with their bags on their backs.
After walking about 50 meters, Xuanxuan, who was sitting on Meng Jinghan's shoulder, suddenly shouted, "Spirit Fox! Over there!"
I looked in the direction of Xuanxuan's little hand, and sure enough!
In the jungle about 200 meters away from them, a bright red color flashed in the grass, reflecting the semicircular reddish-brown cliff. It was hard to see it unless you looked carefully!
Everyone was excited to hear that they found the spirit fox the first time they went deep into the forbidden area.
Grab it!
I don't know who shouted.
Ye Xin led Meng Jinghan and Bai Muran to surround from the right, while Liu Mingfei led two other team members to encircle from the left, trying to drive the fox into the encirclement and then capture it with a tranquilizer gun.
Ye Xin's body had been modified, and she disappeared in an instant. The same was true for Meng Jinghan. Even with Xuanxuan in his arms, he still followed closely behind Ye Xin.
Bai Muran chased closely behind, taking out the tranquilizer gun and ready to shoot at any time.
This fox is about the same size as an ordinary fox, but its fiery red fur is breathtakingly beautiful.
Linghu reacted quickly. When he saw Ye Xin and Meng Jinghan rushing over, he knew that these people were coming for him.
It just stood still, its two ears flickered twice, and then it turned around quickly and flew back the way it came!
According to common sense, Liu Mingfei should have arrived by now, but he did not expect that the reaction speed and running speed of the spirit fox were beyond their expectations.
The fox passed by Liu Mingfei, and the distance between them was no more than 20 meters! When Liu Mingfei picked up the tranquilizer gun, the fox had already jumped into the bushes and disappeared!
Xuanxuan was sitting high up and had a good view. He shouted, "West! It's running to the west!"
Ye Xin was chasing fiercely in front, and Liu Mingfei and his team had already caught up!
The thorns in the jungle tore their clothes and their skin, but they remained unconscious and stared at the fiery red figure.
The spirit fox ran fast, and Ye Xin and Meng Jinghan were not much slower, and they immediately left Liu Mingfei and the others far behind.
"Bang!" Ye Xin fired a shot, but missed!
Ye Xin raised her gun and shouted at Meng Jinghan: "No! We can't outrun it! Can you hit it with your throwing knife?"
Meng Jinghan held Xuanxuan with one hand, took out a dagger with the other hand and threw it at the spirit fox!
Seeing that the spirit fox was about to be hit, it seemed to be able to foresee the danger. It twisted its body while running and ran to the front left again. Meng Jinghan's dagger also missed.
There was another patch of thorns in front of the right. This patch of thorns was particularly tall, more than one person tall. The fox could get in, but people had to take a detour.
As a result, the fox disappeared without a trace, and Xuanxuan was so anxious that he shouted, "Hurry up, hurry up! Hey! It ran away!"
"Mom, I can't control this fox. I've tried many things, but I can't even make it stop."
Xuanxuan reached out and rubbed his head. It was obvious that he couldn't control the fox spirit and was also attacked by the backlash of his supernatural power.
Ye Xin and Meng Jinghan were standing in front of the thorn bush and sighing when Liu Mingfei came over with two teammates, and Bai Muran followed behind, panting.
Looking at Ye Xin's appearance, he asked unwillingly, "Run away?"
Ye Xin nodded and pointed to the thorn bush next to her and said, "It ran away! It disappeared after going in from here!"
Liu Mingfei panted and waved his hands: "No! We can't catch it like this. Human legs can't outrun it!"
"There are only two solutions at the moment. One, bring hounds and let them chase it. Two, find its lair and wait for it!"
"Hehe, of course, the fox is very smart. Even if we find its nest, we may not be able to catch it!"
"Miss Ye, what do you think?"
Before Ye Xin could say anything, a "roar" was heard not far away, and from the sound, this beast seemed to be quite large!
Then there was a roar: "Roar...", and the whole earth was shaking.
Everyone looked at each other and got the same message from each other: The beast is coming! Run!
