"Quickly put on your raincoat! Hurry!"
Urged on by Ye Feng, everyone quickly put on their raincoats.
Fortunately, the pigskin from last night wasn't wasted; we managed to make two raincoats for Tang Weiwei and the other two.
Because Zhan Pengwu was too broad, Ye Feng gave him his old raincoat.
Ye Feng pulled out a nearly brand-new modern raincoat.
This was found in the bag of Clayvin and his companions.
I thought I had a raincoat and that it was useless, but it turned out to come in handy now.
"Boom!..."
Before everyone had fully put on their raincoats, a thunderclap suddenly rang out.
A white light shone through the clouds, illuminating the gloomy sky for two or three seconds.
Then, just two or three seconds later, a torrential downpour began.
The torrential rain fell in an instant, as if someone had suddenly poured a bucket of water on me.
Although Ye Feng and his group put on their raincoats quickly, they still got a little wet.
The two little monkeys ran the fastest and were the first to hide in the backpack.
"Damn it, why is this rain so weird?"
Zhan Pengwu wiped the rain off his face, completely stunned by the sudden downpour.
"That's how the rainy season is in the Amazon; it comes and goes quickly. Let's hurry up and get going..."
After saying that, Ye Feng continued to lead the way...
But the heavy rain seemed to last much longer than he had imagined.
After walking for more than twenty minutes, the rain showed no signs of letting up; in fact, the wind had picked up.
This added another huge obstacle to their journey.
Traveling in the wild on a rainy day, or under unfamiliar road conditions, is a major taboo.
Especially this kind of thunderstorm...
Sure enough, while climbing a slope, Ye Feng, who was walking in front, accidentally stepped into a slippery patch of mud...
After being mixed with rainwater, the soil turned into a slippery mud...
He lost his balance and almost fell to the ground...
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and braced himself on the ground with his hands. Fu Changxiong immediately caught him, preventing him from rolling backward.
"Brother, why don't we wait for the rain to stop before we go? If we really get hurt, it'll make our journey even more difficult!"
"Damn the production team, they must have known it would rain heavily today, that's why they notified us about this game in advance."
They just want to slow us down so they can fight those people.
Ye Feng frowned, shook the mud off his hands, stood up again, and decisively rejected Fu Changxiong's suggestion.
"No! We can only travel during the day, and time is limited. This rain certainly won't stop anytime soon."
Every step we take now brings us closer to our chance to leave.
Follow my footsteps, and keep an eye on each other.
Everyone knew they couldn't persuade him, and they knew they had to keep going despite the wind and rain.
Ye Feng longed to rest, but he truly had no time left.
In this final step, given Makuko's cunning nature, the 50 people he found must all be experts.
At least, they will be better than the previous group.
Even though we have plenty of weapons and equipment, it's best to shake them off if possible.
A head-on confrontation carries the risk of injury or even death.
After all, their goal wasn't to kill and collect the reward; freedom and survival were the most important things.
After climbing the hillside, the group quickly descended again...
The most critical issue is that rainy days increase humidity, which is a necessary condition for fog formation.
When rain falls, it carries away heat from the ground, causing the air temperature near the ground to drop.
When the air temperature is below the dew point, the water vapor in the air will condense into small water droplets, forming fog.
The Amazon rainforest is characterized by its towering mountains and high humidity. Combined with the influence of its topography, dense fog quickly enveloped every corner of the land.
Unlike the dense fog I've experienced before, this time it was a torrential downpour, and it started suddenly.
The fog would naturally be much thicker and more extensive...
At this moment, Ye Feng and the others could only see less than ten meters away; beyond that distance, they couldn't see anything at all.
The peculiar earthy smell in the air was extremely strong, irritating everyone's nasal passages.
The downhill road in front of them had an incline of about 60 degrees, while the slides that children play on were only about 50 degrees.
A perfectly perpendicular angle is only 90 degrees.
If they accidentally fall to the ground, the slippery mud will carry them down the hillside.
Most people would think that it's just a fall, landing on your butt won't hurt much, and you might even get to the bottom faster.
However, Ye Feng was well aware of the danger involved.
He had seen Bear Grylls use this method of rapid travel in the rain during a survival show.
The consequence was that he almost broke his arm. And the slope he was going down was nowhere near as steep as the one in front of him…
The source of danger is actually quite simple: these large trees in the middle of the downhill slope.
At this angle, going downhill, once you start sliding, it's impossible to stop.
Given this limited field of vision, if you crash into a tree trunk or branch, you're almost certain to be seriously injured, even if you don't die.
"Brother Feng, let's go..."
Zhan Pengfei urged him on from behind…
Ye Feng took two steps back and then explained the danger to everyone.
After hearing this, everyone glanced at the slope with displeasure.
Traveling in the rain is definitely a big no-no...
Seeing that this approach was not feasible, Tang Weiwei offered a suggestion…
"Let's take a detour. There are many roads leading down here. If we look carefully, we're sure there are other ways to get down."
Upon hearing this, everyone else nodded in agreement, as this was the safest approach given the current circumstances.
Ye Feng didn't express his opinion because he didn't want to take a detour, as it would be too much of a waste of time.
Moreover, finding a way in this foggy weather is extremely inefficient and could even lead to unexpected problems.
Thinking of this, he slowly walked up the slope…
“Da Xiong, come and pull me along, let me test how slippery this ground really is.”
After he finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand, which Fu Changxiong grabbed with his left hand and then grabbed Zhan Pengwu with his right hand.
The entire team immediately formed the number "1".
Ye Feng slowly walked up the downhill section of the path; the first two steps were fine…
But when he rubbed his shoes against the ground to test how slippery the soil was, he immediately lost his balance and sat down on the ground with a thud.
Luckily, Fu Changxiong pulled him back in time, otherwise he would have slid all the way down like he was on a slide...
The crowd immediately pulled him back…
Ye Feng thought that if he was careful and slowed down, he could use the big trees in the middle of the slope as support points and perhaps he could actually get down.
But now it seems he underestimated how slippery the soil was and the angle of the slope.
"No, no, this is fucking too slippery!"
Ye Feng patted the wet mud off his buttocks and waved to Fu Changxiong.
"Da Xiong, bring out all the ropes and vines."
