This is a basin-like terrain.
There are high mountains and dense forests around, covering this basin.
After walking in the mountains for more than ten days, the people had long lost the cleanliness they had before entering the mountains. The team members were a little sloppy, with long beards and faces that were obviously thinner than before entering the mountains.
You can tell at a glance that he has come from a long distance.
Even Jiang Tang looked a little tired.
Not to mention Deng Ping.
His face looked almost like a dish.
Although it used to live in the mountains, it had been living in this human body for a long time and had lost the agility of the rabbit.
I've been running around in the mountains for so long and have suffered a lot.
My face has become thinner.
It was afternoon when we arrived at our destination.
They were in no hurry to go in.
Instead, he decided to follow Jiang Tang's advice and rest on the hillside at the edge of the basin.
After I've had a good rest, I'll go in tomorrow to see what's going on inside.
There are no caves nearby.
They had no choice but to set up tents to rest for the night.
Fortunately, everyone had tents in their luggage.
They chose a place with slightly higher ground, set up a tent, and set some traps around it to prevent wild animals from approaching at night.
Deng Ping stayed in the camp to help with cooking.
Jiang Tang took her dagger and pistol and went hunting in the nearby woods.
In such a big mountain, it is relatively easy to eat wild game.
Not long after Jiang Tang left the camp, he caught two pheasants, a roe deer, and a wild boar.
Originally, she wanted to catch the fat and big rabbit, but considering Deng Ping, she withdrew her hand that was reaching out for the hare.
"Forget it, I won't catch you, so as not to make your fellow humans sad later."
She is a considerate person who cares about her teammates!
Jiang Tang had a faint smile on her face as she carried her prey back to their camp.
At the moment they were on a slope, with towering mountains behind them. Not far below, about twenty meters away, there was a ravine.
There is a stream flowing in the ditch.
Jiang Tang came back with the prey.
Xu Hui called Luo Haiqiang, Wang Zhu and Fu Xiangwen and asked them to go to the stream to clean the prey.
Bake it and eat it later.
"Be careful in mountain streams. Don't go into dark places. Be careful of snakes hiding in your heart."
Snakes, leeches, and some other unidentified creatures may be hiding in places with a lot of fallen leaves in the water.
When going to the waterside to wash prey, people must be very careful.
"Every step you take now, everyone must be careful. Don't forget that twelve teams ahead of us have lost their tracks, and not a single one has returned."
Even the forest in front is their destination.
It can be said that their mission this time has seen the shadow of success.
But even so, Xu Hui did not dare to be careless.
Repeated reminders.
As they walked along, they didn't see any traces of the team ahead on the road.
To this day they still don’t know what happened to the teams ahead that caused them to disappear.
As the temporary commander of this team, Xu Hui has the absolute responsibility to get everyone out.
The calmer the place, the more vigilant and careful you should be.
"Captain Xu, don't worry."
"We'll be careful."
After the three of them finished speaking, they picked up the prey that had fallen on the ground and walked towards the stream.
Jiang Tang paused for a moment and followed.
Although she didn't work, she looked around when she got to the stream, thinking of herself as a sentry and a bodyguard to protect the three people.
They quickly processed the wild boar's skin, peeled off the skin completely, took out the contents of the stomach, and threw them into the stream.
Luo Haiqiang's hands were stained with blood. He was about to reach into the stream to wash them when Jiang Tang stopped him.
"Don't touch this water."
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Luo Haiqiang's fingers touched the stream water.
He subconsciously pulled his hand back.
There was a sharp pain at the fingertips.
He lowered his head and saw something on his fingertip that looked like a leech, but not a leech.
It was drilling into his thumb.
Luo Haiqiang was shocked.
Jiang Tang had already reached his side. He grabbed Luo Haiqiang's thumb and pulled the little black worm out before it could completely drill into Luo Haiqiang's flesh, then smashed it onto a large rock nearby.
"Go find Comrade Chen Jie and disinfect it."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Hui came over with Chen Jie and others.
After hearing Jiang Tang's words, no one dared to delay. They quickly took out the alcohol and soaked Luo Haiqiang's bitten hand in it.
The rest of the people who came to the stream looked at the densely packed black creatures floating on the surface of the stream, and for a moment they couldn't figure out what they were.
How can it bite people and burrow into their flesh?
"Jiang Tang?"
Deng Ping looked a little confused. She stood beside Jiang Tang and looked at the dense black spots. She was also a little scared.
"Is that a leech?"
"Um."
Jiang Tang nodded. "The leech ancestors are hundreds of times stronger than the leeches outside."
Normal leeches only attach themselves to human skin or appear in the human body after being accidentally swallowed.
But the leeches here will actively drill into people's skin and flesh!
It will crawl into your body through your blood vessels, and no one knows where it will end up, but it won't be an easy journey.
