Chapter 225 Cheating
With the obese Su Qinghe, it took them two hours to walk along the mountain road. When they finally arrived at the entrance to the lush forest, Ling Jiang's expression was so emotional that Lan Jin laughed.
But in fact, it is just a chance to relax a little before officially entering. Once you enter, I am afraid that everyone will be on high alert before coming out. By then, no one will be able to laugh again.
Before entering, you should check first.
Ling Jiang slowly put his head into the entrance and took a cautious look at first to observe the current condition of the flowers that could spray pollen.
When they found that the flowers were still frozen, the six of them walked in boldly.
However, they hadn't walked far when everyone's attention was focused on the giant snake that had been blown up yesterday. Lan Jin felt really sick and said speechlessly, "Is this giant snake just going to be left there? Is there no one to take care of it?"
Lao Gao glanced at her and said with a smile, "Who cares? Why don't we drag it away and eat it? After all, the meat of such a big snake should not be poisonous."
But it was obvious he was joking. Lao Gao added, "This place will be blown to pieces soon. Sister Lan, just bear with it for a while. We probably won't come here again anyway."
"I know, I'll just tell you."
Who knew that Lan Jin was just saying that she was disgusted, while Su Qinghe was about to vomit out of his wounds, "Ugh~~, don't you feel disgusted? You're still joking here."
Huang Jinghe replied in a gloomy voice, "What's so disgusting about that? This is what we killed yesterday. If you don't obey, your fate will be the same as its."
Su Qinghe fell silent, suppressing the feeling of nausea, and then followed them silently.
…
Today's route is naturally different from the one they took yesterday. After all, they entered this dense forest yesterday in order to find their teammates first, and the routes they took were mainly within the range of the distress signal, but today, they walked directly in the direction of the tail of the giant snake.
Because the section of road pointed by the snake's tail is the shortest section leading to the end of the lake, so walking from here is naturally the shortest section.
I have to say that if we just observe, the base is doing a very good job. After all, with a direction, they will avoid a lot of detours.
But as she walked, Lan Jin discovered some problems. She said, "I didn't think about it carefully yesterday, but when I came up again today, I suddenly felt that something was not right."
Brother Zhang asked doubtfully, "What's the matter? Tell me."
"Before this dense forest, there was a lake, so there shouldn't be a path for people to walk on, right? Otherwise, there wouldn't be a wooden bridge outside." Lan Jin said, "Then how did these roads we are walking on now appear?"
Not only the road they are walking on now, but also the road they walked on yesterday is the same. In this lake, there are many places where there is a nearly 20CM wide dirt road closely connected to the lake, leading to all directions.
The road is narrow enough for only one person to walk on, but there is not a single weed on it except for the mud.
But on both sides of it, on both sides of the dirt road, there are two clear boundaries. Outside the dirt land, all kinds of plants grow. You don’t need to observe too carefully. Anyone who pays a little attention can find these problems.
Of course, what Lan Jin calls the clear distinction is only between the roots and weeds of the plant. The upper parts of it can still swing and move at will.
Such doubts were not only noticed by Lan Jin, but in fact the base had also noticed them earlier. However, after studying them several times, they still couldn't figure it out. Of course, maybe they figured out something, but he didn't have enough authority and no one told him. So Brother Zhang, who had no idea the answer, really couldn't answer Lan Jin's question.
Brother Zhang said, "Your perspective is really different from others."
"Be good at discovering some details, perhaps they are the key to saving your life." This is Lan Jin's sigh from the bottom of his heart. Details are really important.
…
Since there was no answer, they naturally didn't dwell on it any further. After all, this road was not particularly safe no matter who was walking on it.
But when they had just passed the snake's tail and were about to go deeper into the dense forest, Su Qinghe suddenly got angry with them and refused to go forward any further. She sat down on the ground and no matter how Huang Jinghe and Lao Gao dragged her, she just kept making a fuss and refused to move forward again.
Anyone would find her behavior very problematic.
Brother Zhang looked at her lying on the ground and said speechlessly, "How old are you? Even if you want to act like a spoiled child, you should consider your age. It's okay for a child to do this, but if you do it at your age, don't you think it's inappropriate?"
It's certainly incongruous, but don't you think it's funny to say it so openly?
But only Lan Jin and the other three found it funny. Su Qinghe, who was lying on the ground, almost spit on him when he heard this.
Su Qinghe rolled his eyes and said, "I don't want to go any further. If you want to die, go ahead and do it yourself. I don't want to die here."
To die?
Ling Jiang threatened, "Why would you die if you go in? If you don't explain clearly, I'll push you in first and let me see how you die. Then I'll consider whether to go in or not."
Ling Jiang was not a good person to begin with. Compared with Lan Jin's ruthlessness, Ling Jiang was even more difficult to deal with. Moreover, since Su Qinghe had said this, if she didn't explain the reason, wouldn't she be the first to feed those dangerous "things" in her mouth?
Su Qinghe glanced at Ling Jiang, then at the five people around him, realizing they might actually be capable of such a thing. So, he could only confess, "There's more than one first-level beast here. Your explosive noise yesterday already caught their attention. Don't go any further. I don't care if you want to die, but I don't want to die."
There is also a first-level beast. This is really something worth being vigilant about. However, Brother Zhang asked: "Where is the evidence?"
Yes, if there is no evidence, then everything is just her trick to cheat.
Su Qinghe looked up at Brother Zhang and said incredulously, "Isn't that big snake from yesterday the best evidence?"
"A big snake is a big snake. Could it be that the first-level beast you mentioned is also a big snake?"
What kind of evidence can this be? Lan Jin said again: "Since it has been said, then there is no need to hide it anymore. We are telling you the truth. If we hadn't seen the skin of a snake shed on the road yesterday, we wouldn't believe that there was a first-level beast inside.
Also, if what you said is true, then how did you know there were two first-level beasts here? Did the entire team receive the news in advance, or was it just you who received the news and then brought these people here?"
