Chapter 22 Chapter 22 A Little Monkey Falls from the Sky
"Sorry Yunti."
Before they parted, Cui Da finally spoke: "I was blind and underestimated you before. I hope you won't..."
He was referring not only to this time, but also the last sandstorm. He also laughed at Yun Ti's superstitious talk and overestimating his own abilities.
I wanted to say "Don't take it to heart", but suddenly remembered that someone had said the same thing. In return, Yun Ti said "I don't remember you at all".
For some reason, Cui Da didn't want to hear these words from Yun Ti.
His tone suddenly changed, and he bowed fiercely, as if to give up. "I hope you won't slack off, and keep this healthy and strong body until the end!"
"Stop talking," Yun Ti interrupted him, her eyes sincere. "People who say things like that in novels and TV dramas are usually about to die."
That's what I said.
But...it does seem a bit like a dying statement.
The burly man scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "Okay, I won't say anymore. If you need anything in the future, just call me. I will definitely help you."
After saying that, he jumped onto the boat.
The neck was red.
*
As soon as Yun Ti got on the boat, the others quickly surrounded her.
Even Ye Xuan, who had been guarding the cab, stretched his neck to look outside.
But someone is faster.
Like a gust of wind, it pushed everyone away.
"Are you hurt anywhere? Or do you feel any pain or itch?"
Li Xingyan didn't say anything and grabbed Yun Ti's wrist and walked towards the cabin.
Pushing her onto the nearest sofa.
Li Xingyan squatted on the ground and lifted up her trouser legs.
He knew that there were many poisonous creatures in the rainforest.
The toothpick fish has a transparent body and is the size of a thumb. It is difficult to be discovered when hiding in the water. Once it pierces the human body, it can survive and reproduce continuously until it sucks all the blood out of the human body.
The poison dart frog is also inconspicuous, but its toxin is enough to kill ten adults. Sometimes just touching it can cause poisoning.
A poisonous spider can cause shortness of breath, cardiac arrest and death with just one bite.
Not to mention poisonous snakes, crocodiles, giant centipedes and so on.
Even on a damp surface, fungi and bacteria can penetrate everywhere. If you accidentally scratch your skin, bacteria can invade your body and cause infection and death.
Li Xingyan had known all this for a long time, but it was just popular science knowledge from books.
Even when the director's staff repeatedly emphasized the horror of the rainforest when they tried to persuade him to leave, he never took it seriously.
To this day, at this moment.
Only then did he truly understand what fear was.
Place Yunti's feet on your knees and wipe them carefully with the clean warm towel you have prepared.
Even though his clothes and trouser legs were almost soaked by the muddy water, Li Xingyan was completely unaware.
Seeing this scene, He Junzhuo, Ming Jiaojiao and others exchanged gossipy looks and consciously closed the cabin door.
Banluo stood outside the door with an expressionless face. He ignored everyone's calls and no one knew what he was thinking.
Like a quiet guardian beast.
–
This posture is really strange.
Resisting the urge to kick Li Xingyan in the face, Yun Ti raised her toes slightly and poked his lower abdomen.
"I'm not hurt."
Even if there is, there is no need to mobilize so many people. Leopards have always had strong self-healing abilities.
"But the decaying plants and animals in the rainforest also release toxins, and they spread faster when it rains."
Why do you get off the boat? Why do you take risks? Why do you never take your body seriously?
The more Li Xingyan thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he wanted to have a good talk.
When he looked up, he saw the girl with a calm expression, "What's wrong? Not breathing?"
Thousands of words are stuck in my heart.
Instead of asking so many whys, he might as well ask himself why he is so useless.
He is neither as omnipotent as Ye Xuan, nor as smart and decisive as Ban Lie.
His good physique is just a facade. He can't carry anything with his shoulders or hands, and he doesn't even have the ability to protect himself.
Even when we all wanted to get off the boat with her just now, we were stopped by everyone and told "Don't make trouble".
Li Xingyan understood that he had no reason, nor the right, to ask Yun Ti to stop. Her purpose in coming here was clear: she wanted to win the championship, not to play around.
Everyone here has their own persistence.
He's the only one hanging around.
Li Xingyan lowered his eyelids, his voice sounding muffled, "I'm sorry, I'm holding everyone back."
"What's the meaning?"
Yun Ti glanced at her feet, puzzled: "It was clearly me who stepped on your thigh."
It's like talking to a cow.
"you……"
Li Xingyan, the artistic man, retracted his previous sentimentality, sighed, and lowered his head to help Yun Ti put on her socks and then her rain boots. "Do whatever you want."
Titti, I will try my best to keep up with you.
*
The sudden rain has just stopped.
The water level ahead finally gradually calmed down.
The rainforest was eerily silent, with only the subtle sound of water droplets from leaves falling onto the eaves of the boat.
The quieter it is, the more danger there is.
As soon as she got out of the cabin, Yun Ti felt something was wrong.
The moment he turned around, a gust of wind blew over him.
Sharp and miserable cries suddenly resounded through the forest.
Yun Ti subconsciously tilted her head and raised her hand.
It's the baby white-shanked langur.
It screamed at the top of its lungs, and its two long arms swung back and forth grabbing the hanging vines. Finally, it jumped steadily onto the back of Yun Ti's hand, and in a flash, it climbed up her arm and onto her shoulder.
After hugging Yunti's neck, the monkey cub calmed down and stopped crying.
The frizzy hair also becomes soft and smooth.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
The others who had just fallen asleep ran out with their weapons in hand, some holding daggers, some holding kerosene lamps, and... Ming Jiaojiao holding a bottle of sunscreen spray.
Only the train slowly came out from behind the ship.
When the monkey cub saw him, he started screaming again.
Why is there a little monkey!
No, why did the little monkey scream so miserably when he saw the train!
Everyone's eyes were on the culprit.
"What's going on?"
Yun Ti asked Banlie while stroking the monkey cub's head.
The little monkey obediently buried his head in her neck and whimpered, sounding very aggrieved.
"This monkey has been following our boat and even hid behind the cabin," Banlie said with a drooping brow, looking aggrieved. "I just wanted to catch it and roast it for my sister."
Just now in the woods, my sister clearly saw this monkey. There is no reason for her not to eat a living creature she sees.
But the monkey was entrenched in a tree, making it difficult to kill. I had intended to let it go, but it walked right into my trap.
If we don’t catch them now, when will we?
"Damn it! You're an outlaw!" He Junzhuo's eyes widened. "This is a world-protected animal!"
They are all ignorant of the law.
Yunti lowered her head and looked into the monkey cub's eyes.
"Are you also an animal protector?"
The monkey boy blinked his big round eyes, raised his head and chest with pride, and said, "It's plain, Mommy."
Perhaps the monkey was too smart, Yun Ti was able to miraculously understand its expression without any obstacles.
Um……
Why are there so many protected animals in this world?
Even though humans have the most fragile bodies, they can only be treated like cattle and horses.
Labor laws cannot protect them either.
After He Junzhuo finished speaking righteously, his stomach growled.
He touched his forehead embarrassedly, "But then again..."
"When people are starving to death, eating protected animals to satisfy their hunger is an emergency measure. The law shouldn't be too harsh..."
!
The monkey boy widened his eyes, grinned and breathed at He Junzhuo, then pulled open Yun Ti's collar and crawled in.
The bulging area was still shaking.
"Hey! You pervert!" Li Xingyan couldn't stand it anymore and reached out to grab him, "Where are you going?"
Ming Jiaojiao slapped his hand away and shouted angrily, "Where are you grabbing at?"
The scene was chaotic for a while.
Only Yun Ti, who was in the center of the vortex, was as calm as if nothing had happened.
She held the monkey's butt and walked straight into the boat. "Put it away for now. We'll talk about it tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, the monkey cub crawled out from under the clothes, put its little paws on Yunti's shoulders, and revealed a furry head.
Its round eyes swirled around until the people behind it were getting annoyed, then it tilted its head and rubbed Yun Ti's neck.
"mine!"
Li Xingyan was helpless and furious, and threw a series of military punches at the air.
Relying on small things to sell small things is not serious!
treetops.
A snake vine rustled and squirmed among the pale roots of the strangler fig.
As drone footage drives by.
The snake vine hangs down naturally.
This isn't a vine at all! It's an emerald anaconda shedding its skin!
Translucent snake skin hung between the branches, and the newly grown scales glowed with a strange luster among the flashing red dots.
The anaconda, which is up to twenty meters long, slithers silently between the trees.
That was the direction the fleet was leaving.
Until the monkey's cry gradually faded away.
The anaconda stopped, coiled in the canopy of the swaying tree, and continued to take a nap.
What bad luck! The dinner that was right in front of me today disappeared.
*
It is still hundreds of meters away from the landmark reference on the map.
The propeller suddenly made a crisp sound of metal breaking.
Like a bird with its neck strangled, the engine stalled.
It was dawn.
Ye Xuan checked the compass and looked not far away.
The rare open space in the rainforest has almost turned into a pond due to heavy rain.
At this time, the others woke up one after another, washed up simply and left the cabin.
He Junzhuo stretched and said, "Hey, are we here?"
Open your eyes again...
Might as well just shut it up.
The rivers in the rainforest often change their courses due to rain. The original river channel they were sailing on had been washed away by heavy rain, and the ship was stranded.
That meant they had no choice but to get off the boat and walk through the muddy ground.
Judging from visual observation, the accumulated water should be above the knees.
The fertile black soil washed to the upper layer, and rotten wood and branches also floated on the water surface. It is unknown how many creatures under the water were crying for food.
After listening to He Junzhuo's description, Ming Jiaojiao and Ma Yuming both turned pale, their stomachs churning, and they wanted to vomit up the small amount of dinner they had last night.
"Brother Yan?"
Seeing that Li Xingyan's expression was unusually calm, He Junzhuo thought that he had not woken up yet and was still daydreaming.
He held his hand out in front of the other person and waved it, his eyes worried, "What are you going to do?"
What worried him most was Li Xingyan's precious body. No matter how scarce the mountain resources were, at least there were no sanitation issues. But this rainforest... was simply too dirty.
He himself could hardly bear it, let alone the young master's terminal obsession with mysophobia.
"What to do?"
Sure enough, he didn't listen. He Junzhuo was about to repeat what he had just said.
Unexpectedly, Li Xingyan said calmly: "Isn't it just wading through? There's nothing to be afraid of. There's nothing to make a fuss about."
Yun Ti raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
Li Xingyan finally caught his wife's attention. He straightened his back and coughed softly, "Didn't you come here to challenge yourself? You coward, go home as soon as possible!"
…
Pretending to be a man.
He Junzhuo rolled his eyes silently, but felt inexplicably relieved in his heart.
At least the burden has made progress.
Yeah?
Yun Ti rubbed her ears.
Someone's heartbeat was so loud that it made the sky noisy, but it didn't seem to say that.
