Resurrected Disciple [End Times]

Chapter 71 Isn't it too late to wake up now?

"Stop talking nonsense! Bring it here! How can you eat alone! How dishonest!"

Shi Dong snatched the bowl back righteously, placed it among the five of them righteously, stared at Deng Qi for everyone righteously, picked a plump white ant and threw it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and grabbed a handful.His hands are big, and with this grab, he scooped up half a bowl.

Deng Qi glanced at it: "Brother Dong, you are really righteous."

"You're welcome!" Shi Dong boasted without shame.

The rest of the people also tried it one after another, and it was indeed crispy, spicy, and very delicious. They were hungry and quickly shared a bowl of stir-fried white ants.

Yilu was also very happy to see that they liked to eat, so he brought many more, from ants, grasshoppers, bee pupae to scorpions, bamboo worms, and the big ones even had skewers.

"Eat, you can eat as much as you want, and take some to eat on the way when you leave. We have dried a lot, and there are few people in the village, so we can't finish it. I also brewed several jars of wine, but it's a pity that there is still time. No." Yilu said enthusiastically.

There is food and drink here, not only is it safe, but also the scenery is pleasant. No wonder the company commander said that the people in the village did not want to leave at all.

While eating, Shi Dong asked Yilu for news: "This village is not far from the botanical garden."

When Yilu heard about the botanical garden, his face changed slightly: "Are you really planning to go to the botanical garden?"

Shi Dong slowed down his movements: "What's the matter? Do you know the situation there?"

Yilu sighed: "When the accident just happened, I met a few tourists who escaped from the botanical garden, saying that the situation there was very bad, and a man was accepted in the village for a few days, and they kept talking about his wife and children. He was still stuck in the botanical garden and didn't come out. He said he was going to find them. We can't stop him, right? He took a knife and left by himself a few days ago, and he didn't come back. I don't know if he is dead or alive. Anyway, I advise you not to go, you go to other places to save people, maybe you can find someone who is still alive."

Their mission is not to save people, and they have to go to the botanical garden.

"How much do you know about the botanical garden, tell us and let us hear."

Yilu hesitated for a moment, as if recalling something terrible, even lowered his voice involuntarily: "I have something, to be honest, I haven't figured it out yet, just listen to it, don't believe it Just listen to the story."

Everyone leaned forward.

"The man escaped by himself. He was wet and pale like a ghost. I saw him as pitiful, so I took him away, gave him some food, and gave him a room to live in. But he was so nervous that he seemed to be frightened crazy. , kept talking about what melted and disappeared, but at that time many people were so scared that they were crying and laughing and talking nonsense. I didn’t pay much attention. I went to see him the next day, but there was no one in the room. At first I thought he left by himself, but when I thought about it, I felt something was wrong, he still dared to run into the woods alone with his appearance? Later I looked at the bed where he slept, guess what I saw?"

After all, Yilu was a tour guide, so he was very good at talking, and he talked about things vividly and suspensefully to whet his appetite.

Deng Qi opened his mouth, and the half-chewed grasshopper almost fell: "What did you see?"

"His bed sheet is wet, and the big yellow piece is like wet urine, and it is still in the shape of a human being."

The grasshopper still fell on the table: "Did he turn into yellow water?"

"I don't know." Yilu resumed his normal voice, "Maybe it's just the dirty rainwater on his body, maybe he really ran back to the woods by himself. I cleared the house, burned some mugwort leaves, and later Nothing weird."

The disaster movie suddenly turned into a supernatural movie, and everyone was stunned, still immersed in the events described by Yilu.

"Ha, what a strange thing!" Shi Dong's heroic voice broke the strange atmosphere.

"Yeah, haha, maybe that person just ran away in fright." Deng Qi replied.

Everyone continued to chat and laugh as if they had broken free from the shackles.

Shi Dong grabbed a handful of fried grasshoppers as if nothing had happened, and walked out of the house. Pei Qianxing noticed the worry on his brow.

Pei Qianxing was full after eating, and casually walked out of the bamboo building. He saw Shi Dong's tall body leaning against a palm tree, eating the grilled worms in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on the dense forest surrounding the village.

When Pei Qianxing approached, Shi Dong noticed it without turning his head.

He can always easily detect Pei Qianxing's existence without using his eyes, it's purely a feeling, in his words: Red eyes can smell him within ten steps of me.

Pei Qianxing's evaluation of this is; this dog is genuine.

"Continue to go in this direction, and you will find the botanical garden." Shi Dong pointed forward.

There used to be a road there, but now it is also blocked by vines, and if you want to go, you have to open the road again.

"Look at the way we came, and it's sealed again. This tree is like a spirit."

Pei Qianxing looked at the road again, and indeed, crisp and tender vines had sprung up, and it might return to its original state in a day or two.

The growth of the plants is so fast that they are indeed like fairies.

Pei Qianxing took a fried grasshopper from his palm, and the slightly spicy taste stimulated his taste buds: "Have you ever eaten worms when you were on a mission? I don't believe it."

"I ate it. I ate it every day when I was running for my life in the forest when the accident happened. I survived by eating worms, and I was lucky to catch worms. Later, I also ate them during nightcrawler training, but I still ate them when I was doing serious work. I really didn’t reach that point. At that time, I ate them raw. How could it be so delicious? The insects would still move after chewing, and I didn’t know if it was poisonous. Get back your life." Recalling the past, Shi Dong only had a bitter smile, "That taste, hey, I will never forget it in this life."

"I knew it." Pei Qianxing said indifferently, "When Yilu brought it out, you were still pretending."

"Let's play with them." Shi Dong smiled so that there were fine lines in the corners of his eyes, and the rough years left faint traces, "In this world where demons and ghosts are rampant, if you don't have some fun by yourself, you can't be suffocated?"

"What do you think of what Yilu said?"

"In the past, I would have thought him suspicious, but now..." Shi Dong wiped off the debris on his hands, and pulled the corner of his mouth, "If you say how tricky the chief is, you know he sent us It's not going to be a good job."

Pei Qianxing smiled: "How deceitful he is, you should have known it back then, isn't it too late to wake up now?"

Shi Dong laughed loudly, like the first sip of mellow wine after an old wine jar was opened, strong and wanton.

He raised his voice and shouted at the bamboo building: "Have you rested enough? It's time to go on the road."

"Here we come." Tian Lexin walked out with Gun Gun in his arms, and Gun Gun was still holding a big bug in his hand and gnawing on it with relish.

Deng Qi came out second, holding a big bag full of grilled insect snacks: "Hey, help me share it, I can't carry it alone!"

Sima Jun followed at the end, with his hands in his coat pockets, still looking relaxed and at ease. I don't know how he managed to keep himself spotless after fleeing for his life. Xiaojie followed behind him, also carrying a bag of snacks.

The unexpected thing exceeded their load, so they had no choice but to call Xio down and tie the snacks around his neck.

After a short rest, the five of them reconfirmed the direction of the botanical garden with Yilu, and bid farewell to the road.

The road surrounded by trees and vines was still very difficult, and several people took turns walking ahead to open the way.

The sun is shining brightly tomorrow, but once you enter the forest, it seems like you have stepped into the shadows. The towering trees completely cover the sun, and they are so dense that even a helicopter cannot enter.

After passing through the vine forest, the road becomes slightly easier to walk.

Deng Qi chopped off a fern leaf as tall as a person and threw it on the ground. He peeked at the worn-out blood bubbles in his palms, wiped the pus on his clothes, gritted his teeth and clenched the machete, and suddenly heard the sound of gurgling water, and said excitedly : "I heard the sound of water."

After crossing the Luosuo River, Huludao came to the botanical garden. They cheered up and speeded up. After a while, a river with a width of [-] meters appeared in front of them.

They were about to reach their destination. They judged the direction and walked towards the suspension bridge. They thought they could go to the island immediately, but they didn't expect to see a completely destroyed bridge in front of them.

"This...what can destroy the bridge like this?" Deng Qi was surprised.

The two ends of the bridge were entwined by wildly growing plants, and the middle was completely broken, as if smashed by something huge. The fragments of the suspension bridge have long drifted along the river to no one knows where.

The yellow-brown Luosuo River rolled in front of them, and several people looked at the river and sighed.

Shi Dong casually threw a stone into the river, and picked up a splash of water with a plop: "Now we have two ways, either go along the river to the southwest and see the situation at the gate on the other side, or swim directly from here. What do you think?"

Pei Qianxing did not speak, but squatted down and stared at the river, his eyes seemed to be able to see the bottom of the water.

"It's only a short distance away. Let's just swim over in my opinion. You all know how to swim, right?" Shi Dong looked at the other side.

Deng Qi also bent down and stared at the water, tremblingly said: "There won't be anything strange in this water, right?"

After saying this, there was a moment of eerie silence.Swimming a river is indeed a trivial matter, but if piranhas are alienated in the water, wouldn't a group of people feed the fish?

While hesitating, Tian Lexin said cautiously: "Let's try to sit there?"

Following Tian Lexin's line of sight, they saw a green lotus pond with lotus leaves floating on the water. The leaves were round and surprisingly big. An adult could lie on them, just like a small boat.

"I think this should be a Wang Lian, but it's bigger than a normal Wang Lian." Tian Lexin said, "Usually a Wang Lian can support an adult who is not too heavy. Now that it is so big, we should be able to sit on it." River."

Seems to work?

Shi Dong looked at Pei Qianxing: "Try it?"

Pei Qianxing replied: "Give it a try, if you fall into the water, just swim over."
