After walking for about half an hour, everyone arrived at the edge of the sightseeing zone. Further in, it was no longer a tourist area and there would be many wild animals.
At this time, the sky was slightly brighter, and the dark forest gradually took on vague outlines.
Tang Xili took off her night vision goggles and warned, "There are many poisonous snakes in this area, everyone please be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rustling sound in the grass ahead, and a round viper as thick as a wrist suddenly jumped out of the grass and attacked Yong Zhixu.
The speed is so fast, like lightning.
Tang Xili turned her wrist and pulled the trigger of the standard silenced gun in her hand.
However, Yong Zhixu was not slow either. Each of them fired a shot, and with a difference of 0.1 seconds, the bullets hit the head of the round-spotted viper.
The snake's brain blossomed and fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a brightly colored tree python jumped down from the big tree behind Xie Dong and rushed straight to the back of his neck.
Xie Dong reacted extremely quickly. He turned around and fired a shot, while shouting, "My mother, my grandmother, my shoes, my jacket."
After a slight sound, the poisonous snake was pierced, and its head was separated from its body and fell to the ground.
He stepped on the snake's corpse, clutching his heart, "That gave me a fucking scare."
Thinking of something, he looked at everyone and said, "By the way, would you like some grilled snake meat? My grilled snake meat is delicious. I also brought black pepper and sea salt..."
“…”
No one paid any attention to him, tightened their guard, and continued on their way.
"Hey, why aren't you talking? Are you going to eat or not?"
“…”
At the same time, several other teams also changed into camouflage uniforms and, led by their respective captains, headed towards the first assembly point.
After walking for another half an hour, considering that Wen Ning's body could not take it, Tang Xili ordered everyone to rest for ten minutes.
The sky was bright and the outlines of the forest were completely clear. Everyone took off their night vision goggles.
"Eat something." Tang Xili took out a vacuum-packed compressed biscuit from her backpack, handed it to Wen Ning, screwed the lid on, and placed the mineral water next to her legs.
"Thank you, sister." Wen Ning thanked her and then started to eat the biscuits in small bites.
Seeing how nice she was to Wen Ning, Yong Zhixu's eyes froze. Was it what he thought?
He did not waste too much time on this doubt. He thought for a moment, then took out the map. The first meeting point was still 6 kilometers away. If nothing unexpected happened, he would arrive in an hour.
Ten minutes later, everyone packed up and headed north.
In order not to hold the team back, Tang Xili noticed that the girl next to her was driving slower, so she decisively called out to Xie Dong, "You carry her."
Xie Dong was surprised, "Why me? If Claire knew I was cheating on another woman, she would kill me."
Tang Xi smiled with a forced smile, "I don't know whether she loves you or not, but if you don't betray me, I will definitely hate you."
As he said this, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Xie Dong half-crouched down, "At this moment, my silence is deafening."
Wen Ning sheepishly lay on Xie Dong's back and whispered a thank you, "Thank you."
Xie Dong carried her on his back. "You're welcome. Eh? Why are you so light? Like cotton. Oh my god, how much do you weigh?"
"80 kilograms." Wen Ning answered honestly, her voice even lower. She hadn't been in contact with people for a long time, so she blushed when talking to strangers and wanted to crawl into the ground.
Tang Xili kicked Xie Dong and said, "Stop talking nonsense and leave now."
"Okay, okay, my living father." The burly man carried the 80-pound piece of paper as if it were a game.
Tang Xili was about to follow when someone suddenly grabbed her wrist. Yong Zhixu pulled down his mask and asked her pointedly, "Ms. Evelyn, do you need any help?"
"Service?" Tang Xili raised her eyebrows, hooked the man's neck, pulled him down, and whispered evilly in his ear, "Not for the time being. If you need special service, I will contact you."
He clearly meant to carry her on his back, but this conversation sounded like a sex trade.
Bella, who was passing by them, muttered, "Young couples really know how to have fun. They drive really well."
…
Another hour later, at seven in the morning, the team arrived at the first meeting point, an open area upstream of the waterfall.
There is a fast-flowing river here, more than ten meters wide. Two miles further west is the mouth of the waterfall.
The morning light shines on the river, and from a distance it looks like a jade belt encircling the deep forest.
When they arrived, the second, fourth and sixth teams were already waiting at the river bank.
The first and fifth teams have not arrived yet.
"Take a break for twenty minutes." Tang Xili ordered.
Everyone found a place to sit down and took out beef jerky and biscuits to replenish their energy.
On this side, Bella, instructed by Tang Xili, contacted the captains of the first and fifth teams, Jill and Wang Tu.
Ask them why they haven't called yet.
The signal in the dense forest was not very good, and intermittent sounds came from the communication radio.
"There was a small accident... The first team abandoned the first assembly point... and is heading towards the second assembly point." This was Jill's report.
Next came Wang Tu's message, "Team Six has encountered travelers camping outdoors. We are currently taking a detour and will arrive in ten minutes."
"Bella received, over."
After the call, Bella reported the situation of the two teams to Tang Xili.
Tang Xili glanced at her watch. It was 7:20, and the break was over.
She stood up and said calmly, "Cross the river."
"yes."
Allison, the captain of the second team, took out a rope, tied it to a big tree on the shore, held the other end of the rope, carefully walked into the turbulent water, and moved forward slowly.
After safely crossing the river, she tied the rope to a big tree on the other side and gestured towards this side to move.
This method keeps everyone safe and saves time.
After everyone had crossed the river holding the rope, the sixth team led by Wang Tu arrived and everyone continued to go deeper.
At 8:30 in the morning, they arrived at the second assembly point and met up with the first team led by Jill.
It was so quiet that even the birds could not be heard. The plants were too tall and dense, and the wind could hardly blow in.
The air was humid and hot, and the soil on the ground was becoming increasingly muddy. Tang Xili squatted down, took a handful of the watery soil, and crushed it in her hands. "There might be a swamp ahead, so be careful to take a detour."
After walking for a few more minutes, they found a huge swamp under the dense forest that blocked out the sun.
At the edge of the swamp, there are many crocodiles with big mouths resting.
Crocodiles sense their prey by their sense of smell. Although they were dressed warmly, it still couldn't stop the evaporation of sweat. Almost as soon as they stepped into the crocodile fist, a crocodile noticed them and crawled towards them at a rapid speed.
"Take a detour! Go to the right." Tang Xili ordered.
The group immediately turned around and ran to the right.
Crocodiles prefer to raid in the water and do not like to chase prey on land. When they realize they cannot catch up with these humans, they give up.
The group took a big detour and walked for another three hours, and finally arrived at the outskirts of the destination, one thousand meters away, at 1:30 in the afternoon.
"Everyone take a half-hour break, and then be ready for battle in half an hour."
