"You really saw... a dead person?" Lu Huanhuan asked cautiously after she gradually calmed down.
Liu Guifang's face was still very pale, and she said while suppressing her nausea, "Of course, it almost scared me to death."
As she walked inside, she suddenly stepped on something and broke it, releasing a foul odor. When she looked down, she found it was a bone.
I didn't pay much attention at first, thinking that some animal bones weren't unusual. But as I walked further and parted the grass, I found piles of corpses inside, some just bones and others fresh with flesh and blood!
Her intestines were ruptured and her belly was rotten. A large group of black beetles were crawling and gnawing inside the corpse. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but vomit.
Even now, the thought still sends chills down my spine. Luckily, those insects didn't chase living people, otherwise they would have ended up like those people, piled up in this nameless mountain.
After a while, the three of them remembered that they needed to rejoin their team.
However, after rushing headlong into the area, they were now disoriented and dared not shout. After searching for a while, they still couldn't find anyone, and the three of them were completely lost.
"Waaaaah, what do we do?"
The three little girls wandered around in the woods, and as it got later and later, they still had no clue what to do.
Liu Guifang was so frightened that she lost the ability to think.
"Stop crying, quickly think about which way is the direction of the cave." Lü Huanhuan calmed down a bit.
Liu Guifang wiped away her tears, stood up, looked around, and said pitifully, "Everything around me looks the same."
Lü Huanhuan rolled up her sleeves, intending to climb the tree.
"You two hold me up, I'll go up the tree and see if I can find my way."
The three of them worked together and finally managed to climb a big tree.
The forest was dense with foliage. After looking around for a while, Lü Huanhuan could barely make out a direction before preparing to come down.
However, climbing a tree is a bit like climbing a mountain. It's easy to go up but hard to come down. The leverage points you use when climbing the tree are different from the way you exert force when coming down, so you may not be able to use them anymore.
She was standing on a tree branch that was very high off the ground, and with her other arm wrapped around the trunk, she was now two or three meters above the ground. She didn't dare to jump down at all.
Liu Guifang called out from under the tree, "Huanhuan, let go and jump down, we'll catch you."
The sun was already setting, and it would be very dangerous to drag it out any longer. Finally, Lü Huanhuan gritted her teeth and let go, falling onto Liu Guifang and Feng Luo.
The three of them rolled around in a heap. Lü Huanhuan and Liu Guifang struggled to their feet. Neither of them was injured, so they hurriedly went to help Feng Luo, only to find that she had already fainted.
"What should we do? Should we pinch his philtrum?" Liu Guifang asked.
"Give it a try." Lü Huanhuan immediately took action.
After fiddling with it for a long time, Feng Luo still showed no signs of waking up. Liu Guifang was getting anxious: "What should we do? We can't stay here too long. If it gets dark, we're doomed."
Lü Huanhuan was also a little flustered: "Let's help her walk first. I just looked, and if we go that way, we might run into someone looking for us and be able to carry her back."
Liu Guifang gritted her teeth, wanting to say something, but after looking at the two of them, she ultimately said nothing. She and Lü Huanhuan each took one of Feng Luo's arms and walked in the direction Lü Huanhuan had pointed earlier.
They were very lucky to find the right direction, and after walking for about an hour, they saw the cave where they had stayed the day before.
By this time, it was already dark in the woods, and there was no sound around. Seeing the quiet cave, one knew that everyone had left; there was no rescue, no waiting.
Fear spread with the night. In the absolutely silent forest, even the sound of footsteps seemed so loud. The two people who were still conscious were plunged into boundless panic in an instant.
The cave entrance was so close, yet it seemed so far away, like the gaping maw of a giant beast, waiting for them to enter.
At that moment, the girls' last shred of reason snapped, and the three of them collapsed to the ground.
At this moment, Feng Luo, who had been unconscious for a long time, stood up from the ground, holding her forehead. At first, she was very unsteady, but after a while, she seemed to recover and looked at the two people who were still sitting on the ground in a daze.
Her demeanor has changed a lot. Before, she carried a sense of tension and unease, but now she stands there calmly, her bright eyes lacking their usual sparkle.
The two people on the ground did not notice Feng Luo's change; they had fallen into despair and lost all their strength.
