Lin Sheng led a group of people to the front, Su Manman and Fu Yanzhu walked in the middle, and Lu Chuan, Jiang Han, Feng Xuan and others walked at the back of the group.
This area has a subtropical monsoon climate, characterized by high temperatures and abundant rainfall. The jungle vegetation is lush, and many snakes, insects, and rodents lurk in the undergrowth. The men leading the way carried machetes and cut down branches that provided cover as they walked.
The forest was hot and humid, and everyone was wearing long sleeves and pants, so their clothes were soaked through after walking for a short while!
Su Manman was feeling unwell from the heat; her clothes were already soaked with sweat. She secretly exchanged some ice packs from the online store, put two in her pocket, and gave two more to Fu Yanzhu before she felt a little better.
Three hours later, the group arrived at a water source. By then it was already dark, and Lin Sheng told everyone to rest and replenish their food.
"Let's rest for twenty minutes. It's eight o'clock now, and we should be able to reach the border of the pasta shop before midnight!"
"Everyone, please turn off your flashlights to avoid causing any unnecessary trouble!"
After Lin Sheng finished speaking, he found a place to sit down and silently took out a light bulb-shaped green light source from his bag. The light was dim and emitted a faint green glow, like the eye of a large wild beast.
Su Manman turned off the flashlight, took out a bottle of mineral water from her bag and drank more than half of it before she felt less thirsty!
She had been sweating a lot on the way, and this was already her third bottle of mineral water; she only had one left in her bag!
Fu Yanzhu heated up the self-heating rice and handed it to Su Manman, then opened a can of braised pork.
"Eat quickly, don't just drink water, you need to eat to maintain your energy!"
Su Manman took the food and started eating in one gulp. For the first time, she found that such simple food was actually quite delicious. It seems she was just too tired!
After devouring the last bite of braised pork, Su Manman was about to rest when she heard a rustling sound.
There was something moving through the bushes, not just one, but many!
Lin Sheng immediately turned on his miner's lamp, instantly illuminating a large area!
"Oh no! A large swarm of snakes is attacking us from all sides! Something's not right!"
"Attention! Everyone, put on your headlamps and prepare for battle!"
At Lin Sheng's command, everyone took out their headlamps and put them on.
Jiang Han looked at the scene before him with a wicked smile. He had already sprinkled snake repellent in the resting area, and the fact that so many snakes had been attracted must mean that someone had done it on purpose!
As the swarm of snakes drew closer, Su Manman saw snakes of different colors and sizes appear together, their target being them!
Su Manman felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at it, and couldn't help but shiver.
[So many snakes! It looks disgusting! It's giving me trypophobia!]
Fu Yanzhu stepped forward to block Su Manman's view and said softly.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen! If you're scared, then don't look!"
Just then, Lin Sheng's powerful voice rang out.
"Group One, listen up! Spread the pesticide!"
Jiang Han led several people to stand in different positions and quickly sprayed medicinal powder around them. The white powder floated in the air with a faint sweet fragrance.
In no time, a large number of the snakes that came into contact with the powder died!
Lin Sheng's order was issued again.
"Second team, charge!"
After receiving the order, Lu Chuan led his men, armed with short knives, and charged toward the path they had originally intended to take.
The short knives in the hands of several people were swung around in a blur, leaving behind a trail of snake carcasses cut in two wherever they went!
"Everyone, keep up!"
Fu Yanzhu, holding Su Manman's hand, followed behind Lin Sheng and quickly passed through the swarm of snakes!
Feng Xuan had fallen to the back of the group at some point. He watched the catching-up snakes and gently waved his hand, causing a surge of dark energy.
In an instant, the pursuing snakes were all dead!
A hint of disdain flashed in the man's deep eyes. "A mere trick!"
Everyone ran along the map for a while, and Su Manman even took a health-strengthening pill in the middle so as not to hold everyone back.
Because of this medicine, Su Manman, who was exhausted, suddenly felt revived and rushed to the front of the team!
Everyone was secretly shocked by Su Manman's amazing physical strength!
Is the young mistress really that capable?!
She's been running for so long, and she's getting more and more energetic! Is this really the legendary frail and helpless female celebrity?!
As they were about to reach the border of the Noodle Kingdom, Su Manman became instantly excited!
It's not even eleven o'clock yet. We'll be in the Land of Pastries once we cross that chasm ahead. It seems to be happening even faster than expected!
Just then, a mist rose up, obscuring the location of the border chasm, and a person wearing a black mask and a black robe slowly emerged from the mist.
Su Manman unconsciously stopped in her tracks, instinctively sensing that the person in front of her was up to no good!
Knowing yourself and your enemy, you will never be defeated. Su Manman secretly opened the system to check the situation.
"Attention: Breaking news! The key figure in this juicy gossip is Chen Fengdie!"
Su Manman stared wide-eyed at the newly popped-up information.
What?! This person is Chen Fengdie!!
[Fu Yanzhu's mother, Lu Ling, committed suicide by jumping into the sea after meeting her!]
Fu Yanzhu's eyes darkened upon hearing Su Manman's thoughts, and a fierce anger ignited as he stared at Chen Fengdie's figure!
The woman in black stopped at the edge of the mist, her gaze towards Fu Yanzhu filled with murderous intent.
"You're the son of that bitch Lu Ling?!"
"I let you live a few more years, but I never expected you to be such an eyesore!"
Fu Yanzhu pursed her lips, radiating a low-pressure atmosphere.
"Who are you calling a bitch?!"
"That bitch is obviously insulting your mother..."
Chen Fengdie laughed nonchalantly, only realizing halfway through her sentence that she had insulted herself!
"You brat, stop with the talk! The snakes are just an appetizer for you; the real show is yet to come!"
"Slap! Slap!"
After Chen Fengdie finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and then four oversized white mice crawled out of the mist!
The rat's head, whiskers, body, and tail were no different from ordinary white rats, except that its body was too big. It was like an inflated balloon, swelled up to the size of an adult elephant, weighing a full three thousand pounds!
Everyone rubbed their eyes involuntarily at the scene before them, thinking they were under an illusion.
"You bunch of bumpkins, is what you're seeing real?!"
Seeing them like this, Chen Fengdie couldn't help but laugh, and even patted the head of one of the big white rats.
"This is my little darling that I've raised for five years, and I haven't even had anyone else try it with her yet!"
"You're lucky today, you've been promoted to be my little darlings' first meal!"
After Chen Fengdie finished speaking, she muttered something to herself, and the black aura around her began to rise.
Su Manman clearly saw the black aura on her body sweep towards the four large white rats. Soon, their clear black and white eyes lost their color and were replaced by a cloud of black aura.
Since the upgrade of the Wunian Buddhist beads, Su Manman has been able to see this energy fluctuation, just like Fu Yanzhu's bracelet, except that hers also has a wish-making function!
