One day later.
The transport plane took Li Tianyi and Luo Shan to the outskirts of the Himalayas and immediately returned.
"Brother, has your injury healed?" Li Tianyi asked with some concern, pointing to his chest.
"No problem!" Luo Shan knew that time was of the essence and dared not tell the truth. His lips twitched involuntarily.
Li Tianyi didn't see that as he carefully compared the topographic map, his brows sometimes relaxed and sometimes furrowed.
"If we follow the original route, it will take at least ten days!" Pointing to another road, "Taking this route will shorten the journey by at least half!"
Luo Shan glanced at it and gasped, "Brother, that's a no-man's land. Even the most elite expedition teams don't dare to go in. You really want to go?"
"Time waits for no one, this is the only way we can do it, sigh!" Li Tianyi said helplessly.
"Alright, get ready, let's go!"
Luo Shan shouldered the tactical backpack, which weighed several dozen kilograms, his brows furrowed slightly. Afraid that Li Tianyi would see it, he quickly controlled his expression.
The two headed northwest...
The road was overgrown with thorns, making the journey very slow.
Fortunately, Li Tianyi had the jungle experience taught by Isabella, so the journey went relatively smoothly.
Before we knew it, it had gotten dark, so we had to stop and rest.
When Luo Shan turned around, his clothes were already soaked with blood. He forced a smile despite the pain. "Brother, get your camping gear ready and boil some water. I'll go see if I can catch some wild game. We've been so exhausted; we need fresh meat to replenish our energy!"
"Okay!" Li Tianyi waved his hand.
Once out of his sight, Luo Shan could no longer hold back. He gritted his teeth, pulled open his clothes, and poured on some wound medicine.
The excruciating pain nearly made him faint.
He endured it and did not make a sound.
I leaned against a tree, feeling drowsy, and soon drifted off to sleep...
As time passed, the bandages discarded nearby emitted a faint smell of blood, drifting away on the wind.
Half an hour later.
Luo Shan suddenly woke up and looked around warily. Seeing no beasts approaching, he finally felt relieved.
Return quickly.
As they approached the camp, a mournful wolf howl echoed from a great distance.
"Brother, be on guard!"
Li Tianyi grabbed his gun and appeared beside him instantly. "Have you encountered a pack of wolves?"
"No!" Luo Shan had a bad feeling about him. "Be careful tonight!"
"Okay!" Li Tianyi handed over a piece of heated beef brisket. "Eat something, and come relieve me in the middle of the night!"
"good!"
Luo Shan finished eating quickly and lay down in the hammock to rest.
Time flies, and midnight arrives.
Screams echoed through the jungle from time to time, one after another, sending chills down one's spine.
Li Tianyi was on high alert, his finger resting on the trigger, ready to fire at any moment.
Waaah...
As far as the eye could see, a patch of green lights was rapidly approaching; judging from the number, there were at least a hundred wild beasts.
Boom!
Gunshots rang out, startling the wild beasts, which scattered and fled.
Luo Shan was quite frightened and rushed over to the vicinity, his expression grave. "What's going on?"
"Just a pack of wolves!" Li Tianyi said casually, but he was very worried because there was a blood-red spot among the lights just now, which definitely did not belong to the wolf pack.
"I'll keep watch, you go and rest!" Luo Shan gestured.
"I'm not sleepy yet, come back at 3 o'clock to relieve me!" Li Tianyi pointed to his wound, "Change the dressing more often, it will heal faster!"
Luo Shan smiled wryly, "I still can't hide it from you!"
"Brother! If it weren't for the urgency of the situation, I would never have agreed to let you come along!" Li Tianyi said seriously. "Your wife and child are waiting for you at home!"
"Yes, I'll be careful!"
Luo Shan returned to the hammock, but couldn't fall asleep and kept looking around.
As the coldest hour of the night arrived, the surroundings became unusually quiet.
Even the faintest breathing sounds could be clearly heard.
Suddenly, a tremor came from the far distance, and a large creature was moving rapidly.
Li Tianyi stared at him warily.
The creature was incredibly fast, quickly rushing to where it could be seen. It was too dark around, so I could only make out a vague outline; it looked somewhat like a python, but not quite.
"Ready for battle! Ready for battle!"
Luo Shan rushed to the vicinity when he felt the tremor and was setting up booby traps.
Li Tianyi immediately put on night vision goggles, and a mud-colored creature, several meters wide and of unknown length, darted through the forest.
My gaze shifted to its head, only to discover that the thing had no head.
The most frightening thing is the uncertainty. The two men got goosebumps all over their bodies and gripped their AKs tightly.
Sizzle!
The creatures suddenly stopped in their tracks, staring at them warily.
Neither side made a move.
As time passed, a creature suddenly rushed in, its mouth agape with ten or so lobes, covered with many sharp teeth.
Tap tap...
AK bullets hit it but caused absolutely no damage.
"Big brother, you retreat first, I'll cover the rear!" Li Tianyi drew his Po Jun sword and stood in the path the creatures were bound to take, shouting, "Little bugs, come on!"
Enraged, it charged straight at them.
As the distance rapidly closed, and the entire snake became visible to the naked eye, Luo Shan exclaimed in surprise, "A headless snake!"
Li Tian was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. He swung the Po Jun sword with all his might, thinking, "This thing is related to the lives of three top scientists. No matter the cost, I must kill it."
"I'm here to help you!"
Luo Shan wielded the Giant Sword, unleashing the Splitting Light Sword Technique, his surroundings enveloped in dense sword light.
By the light, they could see that the object was more than five meters wide and at least twenty meters long, covered in sticky mucus, and any plants that came into contact with it withered rapidly.
"Big brother, step back!" Li Tianyi glanced at his wound.
Luo Shan understood immediately and quickly distanced himself.
The escape was too fast, and the wound reopened, dripping blood.
roar......
The headless snake charged excitedly.
Li Tianyi quickly intercepted, unleashing three consecutive sword beams.
It didn't even try to dodge; it went straight for it.
Swoosh! Boom!
After the sound, apart from three bloody marks, not even the skin was broken.
"What a terrifying headless snake!" Li Tianyi frowned slightly, thinking of a way to break through its defenses.
Meanwhile, Luo Shan was caught up and could only fight back with all his might, which widened his wounds and caused more blood to drip.
A terrifying suction force emanated from the headless snake's mouth, and withered leaves stained with blood flew into its mouth, which it then smacked its lips in satisfaction.
"The Ultimate Technique of Tai Chi Swordplay: The Power of Yin and Yang!"
The Qi energy spread rapidly, and the Yin and Yang energies intertwined, temporarily blocking it.
"Looking for death!" The words echoed in their minds.
Li Tianyi's expression grew increasingly grim. He accelerated the evolution, the Tai Chi symbol swirling, and an even more violent Yin-Yang aura surrounded it, forming a wall of energy.
The headless snake was somewhat frightened and dared not pursue Luo Shan any further. It opened its mouth and spat out a foul-smelling liquid.
Wherever the liquid passed, trees withered and stones hissed and bubbled.
"Such strong corrosiveness, be extremely careful!" Luo Shan quickly treated his wound, staring intently ahead, constantly gathering his inner strength in his throat.
roar......
The Buddhist Lion's Roar is an extremely yang technique, highly effective against evil spirits. The headless snake was terrified and turned to flee.
Where are you going?
Having finally encountered it, how could he let it escape? Li Tianyi pushed his speed to the limit...
