Chapter 473 Beast Disaster. Red Waves
Grandpa Gao said thoughtfully, "If we only look for a point, it's like gambling. If you're lucky, you can find what you want in one go, but what if you're unlucky? You might have to click all over the map before you can find it."
Wang Ce added, "You may not be able to find them even if you search the entire map. They are mobile and uncertain. Wherever you jump to, they may go back for some reason."
Guo Changren nodded, "I understand. Let's narrow the search circle little by little."
Shen Xun looked at Chu An and found that her face was a little gloomy, so he asked her what was wrong?
Chu An shook her head. She just felt that this search would not go smoothly and was annoyed by her sixth sense. "It's okay. You guys continue. Don't worry about me."
Shen Xun comforted him, "Although our method is a little slow, it is the safest. Your brother has experience in surviving in the wild, and Mr. He Jingze is an agronomist with rich experience. If they work together, they may be able to get out of this forest."
"I understand." Chu An said, "Captain Wang also suggested this method. I will recommend him to take the route you mentioned."
"I've heard of Wang Guan before. You can trust him." Shen Xun said, "By the way, how is the training of the dogs going?"
"It will be much easier based on your training. You should be able to participate in the search tomorrow morning." Chu An said, "We traveled from City C to here almost without stopping for a moment. We want them to rest for a while after training before setting off again."
"Okay, be careful. We've decided to set off in an hour." Shen Xun looked at his watch and continued, "We're now out for 2 hours and 45 minutes. The mountain road is not easy to walk on, so we can only advance about 10 kilometers. The progress will be slow, but we will do our best."
Chu An felt very warm in her heart and finally revealed a rare smile. From a chance encounter to a deep bond, she didn't know how much the people in front of her had helped her. This feeling was very heavy, like her redemption.
"Thank you."
Wang Ce raised his eyebrows, "Oh, it's not easy to hear your praise, my little ancestor. After this search is over, I decided to give you two extra lessons, one taught by me and Grandma Xia."
"What class?" Chu An felt a little flustered for a moment. She was just a high school student and didn't deserve to be taught by so many experts in person.
"Don't worry, you'll know in a few days."
"Reveal some information first so that I can be mentally prepared." Chu An has been tortured badly in the past six months.
Wang Ce has a wide range of knowledge and has a solid foundation in what he has learned. He can also trace the origins of things and even expand on them from his own perspective. He is definitely a top student.
Her hair was almost bald, but she still couldn't keep up. She even had the illusion that the more she tried to catch up with him, the farther away she got. This had become her nightmare!
"He was joking with you." Shen Xun glared at Wang Ce, "Grandma Xia just wanted to tell you about her recent research results. Her hydroponic plants have made great progress. And she roughly guessed the cause of the fog through the weather changes you mentioned. If we prepare in advance, it can greatly increase the chances of human survival."
Chu An heaved a sigh of relief. She could handle Wang Ce alone, but she didn't want to be hit by a mixed doubles attack.
"Are you feeling a little more relaxed?" Wang Ce said with a smile, putting his arm around Chen Xun's shoulders.
He actually thought of using shock to relax. But at the moment, he was not that nervous.
"Thank you." Chu An was sincerely grateful and was also very interested in Grandma Xia's research.
"I want to thank you too, Xiao An." Shen Xun said with some emotion, "Thank you for saving me and always thinking about my father."
Chu An still felt a little ashamed when she mentioned this. Every time she found information about the Masked Fox, it was easy. She never took the initiative to look for clues. If she could find Mou Ci successfully this time, she could try to investigate.
Suddenly, she felt a chill in her right eye, followed by an unbearable stinging pain, and she quickly covered her eyes and squatted down. The next second, she woke up from her sleep and took a few quick breaths.
The night sky was still pitch black, with only a fire in front of Gu Ye. The surroundings were eerily quiet, even the wind had stopped.
Shen Xun used his mental power to ask her what happened and if she needed help.
She turned her head and looked around. There was no unusual movement around her. Gu Ye was also on guard at all times, and it didn't seem like anything had happened.
"No need, just follow the plan." After Chu An replied, he sat up and took out a night vision telescope to observe. The giant pythons and wild boars around him were nowhere to be seen.
Gu Ye heard the movement behind him, turned around and saw her sitting up, and said with a smile, "It's only been two hours, you should rest for a while."
Chu An shook her head and touched her right eye. Although the temperature was normal, the stinging sensation was still there. She looked back at the cabin and saw nothing unusual.
The time now is three fifteen, and it will be daybreak in another hour.
"Captain Wang's training has ended. He and Uncle Chu are resting in the house, and the dogs are also recuperating." Gu Ye lit the campfire and talked about what happened when she fell asleep. "By the way, the animals in the woods have all run away. I observed for a while, but there is no sign of them coming back. They have also been up for five or six hours, and they are probably tired."
"When did you leave?" Chu An asked casually.
"Not that long ago, maybe ten minutes ago." Gu Ye said.
Chu An always felt something was wrong. If there was no danger, there would be no stinging pain in his right eye. And the danger indicated by the stinging pain was often related to life.
"Gu Ye, did you hear any sound?" Chu An asked.
The wind has stopped and there are no wild animals in the woods, but why is there still a slight rustling sound, as if it is not far away?
Gu Ye’s ears were more sensitive than those of most people, so he listened carefully and said, “I heard it too, I thought it was a rodent nearby.”
Huh? It seems a little strange that the sound came from the ground.
"Xiao An, we seem to be surrounded." Gu Ye picked up a half-burned stick and threw it forward in horror.
There was a crackling sound where the fire stick landed, and countless red ants were crawling around the flames.
Chu An didn't have time to think about it, he took out the highest-power searchlight from the space and turned it on.
The front suddenly became as bright as day, which gave the two people goose bumps. They saw that the ground was densely packed with red ants, like red waves, surging towards them along the endless coastline.
"Fuck, what big ants." Gu Ye couldn't help but jump up. There were also a few ants at his feet, and he didn't know when they crawled over.
Chu An hurried over. Each ant was about 3 cm long, with body color ranging from reddish brown to dark brown. The entire body structure was clearly visible, with long antennae, a smaller head than the abdomen, small and rough sides of the mesothorax, and a huge brown abdomen.
This is a fire ant!
