You know, this is an uninhabited land. Since ancient times, it has been a terrifying area with no return. No one knows the true face of this swamp, let alone what the dark forest hidden behind it looks like.
"Everyone rest where you are for the night. Who asked the question? Come out." Feng Jier greeted the soldier who asked the question.
It turns out to be Da Xiaowu. No wonder the voice sounds familiar.
Looking at his thin but very excited face, Feng Jier said seriously: "Xiao Wu, don't worship me too much. The instructor is also a human being, and he also has life, old age, illness and death. He is not omnipotent when crossing the sand. If it weren't for your strong will to survive,
We can't get here if we stand as one."
Seeing him listening to his words, Feng Ji'er lowered her head more and more. She couldn't help but patted his shoulder and continued: "But since you dare to ask questions, tonight, I will let you explore the road with me first. This swamp
, it’s very dangerous, and you can’t drink the water easily. We have to wait until dawn, and we will lose time to enter the dark forest.”
"Yes, coach! Xiaowu is totally willing!" Da Xiaowu raised his head again and responded energetically.
"The water in this swamp is knee-deep, and there are rotten trees everywhere. It is very difficult to walk during the day. Do you want to go in late at night to explore the way?" Xuan Luo asked in a serious tone, annoyed.
"The moonlight is bright tonight and the sky is beautiful. With the moonlight, I think I can do it." Feng Jier once trained in the wild woods in the dark. The dark night is not a problem for her. Finding the way ahead is the most important thing.
"What should you do if you get lost?" When walking on the sand during the day, she can identify the direction through the sun and plants. It is dark night. Once she enters the swamp, she can't see her fingers and cannot see the stars at all. What should she do?
Feng Ji'er smiled at Xuan Luo and took out an embroidery needle from her arms.
"Here we need the captain's help." As she spoke, she had already moved closer to Xuanluo. Before he could react, she directly opened his soldier's uniform. Sure enough, the underwear was made of silk, and it looked like a piece of silk under the moonlight.
Yingying Baiguang, His Royal Highness the Prince's soldiers are not well armed. How can he wear a soldier's coat, but it is the Prince's obscene clothes?
"Do you mind if I cut off a piece of cloth?" Before Xuan Luo could speak, Feng Ji'er had already cut off a piece of cloth from his body with a knife.
"What...what? If you take a piece of cloth off my body, you can tell the direction? Could it be that the instructor wants to find our location by smelling this...captain's scent!"
"Captain is overthinking it. Anyway, I will return before dawn. You can lead everyone to rest where they are. Don't drink the water here!"
"Don't each group have a leader? This captain wants to..." Xuan Luo was interrupted by Feng Ji'er before he could finish his words. "The lives of these 100 people are not a child's play. The captain needs to be stationed to replace my instructor and protect him."
It’s good for them. Captain has a heavy responsibility. I hope you won’t let me down.”
"Xiao Wu, let's go." She took Da Xiaowu and entered the dark swamp.
"..."
Xuan Luo wanted to say something again, but found that he couldn't find a word to refute her!
Xuan Luo sat down on the spot, feeling restless. From time to time he looked up at the bright moon above his head. Why did it seem that the moon would not move?
The long night in the wilderness... is so unbearable!
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the soldiers had all sat in a circle, next to each other, and fell asleep. Xuan Luo still looked up at the bright moon again and again. Finally, he saw that it was gradually fading away, but the night was still dark. Now
It must be before dawn
Feng Ji'er hasn't come back from the swamp yet
Xuan Luo finally got impatient, stood up, and shouted loudly, frightening all the sleeping soldiers.
"Team leader, come out!" Xuan Luo made a decision after wandering back to the spot several times.
The sleepy soldiers stood up crookedly
"Pull yourself together, how can you sleep while listening to those birds and beasts roaring? The servants are keeping vigilant, and the ten team leaders are scattered around to protect the safety of the entire army."
"Captain, you want to enter the swamp? But the instructor clearly told you..."
"Did I say I wanted to enter the swamp? I just couldn't sleep and wanted to look elsewhere. If I meet the instructor, it's just a coincidence. Do you understand?"
"Oh..." The soldier who asked the question scratched his head, as if he couldn't figure out the connection between him looking elsewhere and meeting the instructor.
Xuan Luo followed Feng Ji'er's direction into the swamp. As soon as he took steps, two figures came out of the swamp.
Xuan Luo's heart skipped a beat. This instructor really did what he said, and the sky was almost brightening. She really walked out of the swamp. Not only was she not lost, but she looked extremely calm!
Da Xiaowu followed Feng Ji'er, who was about the same height as her. Both of them were thin, like a pole, but they walked upright.
As soon as Feng Ji'er appeared, the whole army became restless.
Xuan Luo coughed twice to show his impatience.
"Good job, instructor, for being able to return to the same place. It seems that the road to the swamp has been found clearly? Da Xiaowu, how do you rely on to identify the direction?"
When Da Xiaowu saw Xuan Luo asking, he replied respectfully: "The instructor rubbed the embroidery needle hard on that piece of satin cloth, and then the embroidery needle pointed north. We relied on this method to get back all the way."
"The instructor's method is really novel!" Xuan Luo had a smile on his face, but when he got close to Feng Ji'er, he could see the tense expression on her face.
"Why do you look so weird?" he asked.
"Are you thirsty?" Feng Jier asked back without answering the question, her eyes cold.
Xuan Luo swallowed his throat. He had already been so fucked that he could only make a hoarse sound. From the sound, couldn't she feel that he was thirsty? Or maybe she disliked him for talking too much?
"..." Just as Xuan Luo was about to speak, a group of soldiers behind him whimpered hoarsely: "Teacher, when can we drink water? You can't drink it raw, and you can't drink it if it's boiling."
Feng Ji'er was silent for a while, seemingly scanning all the people present one by one, and then said with a hint of exhaustion and helplessness: "I'm sorry... I think I know the reason why people who come here come and never come back.
Already..."
Da Xiaowu lowered his head and even raised his hand to wipe the tears from his eyes.
The dignified man actually shed tears
The expectant expressions on the soldiers' faces suddenly solidified...
What exactly is going on?
[The principle of identifying the direction of an embroidery needle: the needle repeatedly rubs against the silk in the same direction, which will produce magnetism. Hanging it can indicate that the North Pole magnetism will not be very strong. It needs to be rubbed again after a period of time. If there is a magnet to increase the magnetism, it will be more effective than using silk.
