After setting off, Lu Xuan and Leng Mengyao had a conversation and only then did they learn the whole story.
It turned out that Yin Yichen couldn't bear it anymore and ran into the jungle alone, and then bumped into Leng Mengyao who was rushing back. When Leng Mengyao told her what happened, Yin Yichen became unhappy and clamored to follow him. Leng Mengyao originally wanted to persuade her, but suddenly heard the terrifying bear roar, and even Leng Mengyao was a little worried.
After some discussion, the two decided to act separately. Leng Mengyao turned back and sped up to catch up with Lu Xuan, preparing to trick Lu Xuan into stopping. As for Yin Yichen, she went back to prepare supplies and took Shen Keyin and Aphrodite with her.
So, after all this busyness, the result is what it is now, and everyone is on the road again with bags full of stuff.
"Girls, you guys are living a good life in the cave, but you have to come out and suffer with us. Why do you do that?"
Lu Xuan really couldn't understand. It would be so nice to lie down in the cave. If he wasn't the captain and had to lead by example, he really wanted to go back and have a good sleep. But these beauties didn't want to enjoy their blessings and had to come here to suffer.
"Lu Xuan, it's too dangerous for you and Taylor to be alone. We must protect you."
"Yes, yes, yes. Just the two of you? Can you do it? Of course not. Without us, I don't know how big a mess you will make."
What Lu Xuan didn't expect was that the two girls in front of him actually said such words shamelessly.
Lu Xuan and Taylor looked at each other with quite interesting expressions on their faces. It turned out that these two grown men had to rely on these four women for protection?
Although Leng Mengyao did not join the two shameless girls in their affairs, he was also laughing secretly with his hands covering his mouth. It was obvious that these three were typical "birds of a feather". As for the remaining Aphrodite, although she looked very calm on the surface, why could Lu Xuan and Taylor still see excitement in her eyes?
"Alright, alright, let's stick to the old rules. When you're out in the field, follow all instructions. There's a brown bear in the southwest. We need to stay as quiet as possible, pay close attention to our surroundings, and be on the lookout for that Japanese woman. Mengyao, you and Yichen will be at the tail end, Taylor and I will lead the way, and Keyin, you and Aphrodite will be in the middle. Do you understand?"
Lu Xuan immediately realized that if he continued to talk nonsense, he would definitely not be a match for these people in front of him, so he simply got back to the point. After all, he was not really here for fun. Traveling in the dark was inherently dangerous. What's more, there might be threats from wild beasts and that Japanese woman ahead of him, so before setting off, he had to emphasize the precautions again.
"Yes, sir!"
Yin Yichen saluted Lu Xuan, then dragged Leng Mengyao to the end of the team. It seemed that any atmosphere would change with the involvement of this girl.
Lu Xuan didn't say any more words and took Taylor to the front of the team.
Although he was familiar with this area, he was still not as familiar with it as Taylor, so he gave the job of leading the way to Taylor.
"Brother Lu Xuan, just in case, let's not take the river route this time. Let's go a little further north. I'm worried that brown bears might be looking for food and water near the stream."
Taylor was still quite cautious. When traveling at night, safety always comes first.
When everyone advanced more than 200 meters to the west, the creepy growl of the brown bear came again from the south. The girls in the team shivered involuntarily after hearing the noise.
"It's okay. Judging from the noise, it should be far away from us. But having such a big brown bear in this jungle is always troublesome. When I have time, I will really teach this brown bear a good lesson."
After hearing what Lu Xuan said and seeing his calm face, the girls' courage that had been frightened by the bear's roar seemed to be restored. They continued to move westward until they crossed a jungle. Taylor then brought everyone back to the stream.
"We'll be heading west from now on, but everyone should watch your step, as the current ahead will gradually increase."
While leading the way, Taylor also reminded everyone behind him to pay attention to their feet. It was obvious that Taylor was very familiar with this area.
"Lu Xuan, there seem to be some footprints here. But they seem to turn south from here..."
Everyone continued to hurry on their way, but Leng Mengyao used the torch in his hand to check the situation under his feet from time to time. After walking for a while, he found some fresh footprints in a pile of muddy soil.
"So it can't be wrong. It's those two little brats. They're lucky today. I don't have time to serve them. Let them live a few more days. We will continue to head west."
Lu Xuan took a quick look and was almost completely certain that the two people who ran into his cave in the middle of the night were none other than the two Japanese devils. As for the person who brutally killed the fat pig, it was basically confirmed that it was Kurai Ling who was holding a sword.
It's just that Lu Xuan and others have more important things to do at this moment, so the matter of ruining their lives has to be put on hold.
"Brother Lu Xuan, walk about 300 meters ahead and you will reach the Holy Spring."
After everyone continued walking west for another 500 meters, Taylor turned around and pointed in the west.
"Tyler, I suddenly thought of a question. The legend says there are five holy places. Then why is this holy spring inhabited, but my cave, which seems to be in a better location, is uninhabited? And it seems that the savages are very afraid of that place."
When Lu Xuan heard the sound of flowing water coming from the holy spring again, he casually asked a question.
"Honestly, I don't understand it either. I tried asking Alucia, the leader of the Charlie tribe, before, and he only mentioned five holy places. He didn't emphasize the difference between this dragon's lair and the other four. I'm afraid I can only find out the truth when I meet Vivian."
Obviously, Lu Xuan was not the only one who had the same question as Lu Xuan. Taylor himself had also had doubts, but he had never gotten a clear answer.
"Oh, and you just told me when we were in the east that there's a record on the parchment scroll that this deserted island was connected to the mainland in ancient times. Is that what you said?"
At that moment, Lu Xuan suddenly remembered the topic that was interrupted by the brown bear's roar.
"Yes...I think that's what my sister Jessica said."
Taylor nodded at Lu Xuan.
However, when this question came to Lu Xuan, it became a little strange.
"Mengyao, do you remember our original deduction? This so-called parchment scroll is more likely a modern masterpiece, so it can't be very old. But why does it mention events from ancient times? Could it be that the person who published this book came here for archaeological research?"
Lu Xuan immediately raised a question that left everyone confused...
