After Zhuang Rui threw the light yellow pill into his mouth, he asked Peng Fei. The pill had a bitter taste when it entered his mouth. Zhuang Rui quickly picked up the kettle and drank some water.
"Quinine tablets..."
Peng Fei replied casually, and when he saw Zhuang Rui's puzzled look, he added: "It is also called Jinji Nashuang. It is used to prevent and treat falciparum malaria. It also has some effect on these miasma..."
The jungle in front of Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei was filled with a faint mist. Because it was covered by the dense trees in the forest, this miasma persisted all year round.
But it's still good now. If it's the rainy season and the heavy rain washes away those decayed things, there will be no way to stay in the rain forest.
"Approximately how far have we traveled?"
Zhuang Rui looked around. Except that the trees seemed to be denser, the jungle seemed no different from when he first entered the forest, let alone distinguishing the southeast from the northwest.
"There should still be a distance of twelve or thirteen kilometers, but it will definitely be difficult to walk from here. Brother Zhuang, are you sure you want to go forward?"
Peng Fei took out a Pagan map and looked at it for a while, with a serious expression on his face, because he found that the compass had lost its effect here. If he went forward, he would have to rely on the sun blocked by trees above his head to determine the direction.
Already.
"Go, why don't you go? They are all here..."
Zhuang Rui has been walking through the jungle for more than two hours. Except for a few snakes, he has not seen even a shadow of the so-called jackals, tigers and leopards. There seems to be no danger. This greatly increases Zhuang Rui's confidence.
, and judging from the appearance of the journey, this place must be inaccessible, maybe the batch of gold is really still where it is.
The adventure factor in Zhuang Rui's body was also aroused at this time. He grew up watching Robinson Crusoe when he was a child. Now that he has such a good opportunity to go on a jungle adventure, how could Zhuang Rui give up? It's dangerous? It doesn't seem right.
It hasn't appeared yet.
There are many rich and adventurous people in the world. Not to mention the Chinese real estate tycoon who climbed Mount Everest several times. The billionaire scientist who was the first foreign country to successfully complete single-cell reproduction often drives alone.
His yacht goes deep into the ocean.
Exploration has now become a game for the rich. Among other things, the equipment is beyond the reach of ordinary travel enthusiasts. The real estate tycoon in Shenzhen spent more than a million dollars on a single climb of Mount Everest.
to calculate.
"Okay, Brother Zhuang, be careful on the way down..."
When Peng Fei saw Zhuang Rui insisting on moving forward, he said nothing, but took out two simple gas masks from his backpack, handed them to Zhuang Rui, and taught him to put them on his face.
This miasma area is not known to be very large, and it is definitely not possible to rely on quinine pills alone. Fortunately, Peng Fei was prepared in advance. He brought a total of four gas masks that can last for half an hour.
"Click..."
Just as Zhuang Rui took a step forward, he suddenly stepped on something and almost fell to the ground when he slipped.
"What the hell?"
Zhuang Rui fiddled with it with a branch. After he saw the object clearly, he was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
It was clearly a dead skull. The bones at the jaw had disappeared, leaving only the Tianling Cap and two black eye sockets. In this dark environment, it looked extremely strange.
A snake with a triangular head and four colors of red, black, yellow and white on its body, about the thickness of a thumb, came out of the eye socket. It seemed dissatisfied with Zhuang Rui disturbing its residence. It raised its head and "hissed" at Zhuang Rui.
He stuck out his tongue and then burrowed into the thick dead leaves again and disappeared.
"Fuck, don't bite people to scare them..."
Zhuang Rui's heart only felt a "dong-dong" beating. Fortunately, he retreated quickly. Otherwise, he might not have taken a bite, and he might have lost his life. Who knows whether spiritual energy has a therapeutic effect on toxins.
But now that the big talk was too full, Zhuang Rui followed Peng Fei carefully and walked deep into the Savage Mountain.
As they walked forward, the speed of the two of them became slower and slower, because the mountain gradually became steeper, and the number of snakes and insects suddenly increased. From time to time, hanging snakes could be seen on some low treetops.
There was a colorful venomous snake in front of him. If Peng Fei hadn't been quick with his hands and eyes, he might have been bitten many times while he was exploring the way ahead.
As for the bones of the dead, Zhuang Rui saw a lot of them. From time to time, dead bodies could be seen in the grass. As for their clothes and other things, they had long since decayed, and there was no way to identify them. He did not know whether they were soldiers of the expeditionary force.
, or the Japanese who disappeared in Savage Mountain.
Along the way, Zhuang Rui finally believed the saying that hundreds of thousands of bones were buried in Savage Mountain. There were several places full of miasma. Without gas masks, it would be really difficult to pass. I believe that the equipment of those defeated troops must have been
Not as good as the two of you.
"Brother Zhuang, take a rest..."
Peng Fei looked at his watch. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon. They had been walking for more than four hours. The location of the treasure should not be very far away. There was still about two or three kilometers to go. However, these two or three days
Kilometers, it looks like it will take more than an hour to walk.
This trip to Savage Mountain was far from smooth as expected, and I was afraid I might have to spend the night in the mountains.
However, Peng Fei really didn't expect that Zhuang Rui's physical fitness was so good. Looking at his current appearance, he was even more relaxed than himself. Moreover, when exploring the road, the dry food bag weighing seven or eight kilograms was also carried by Zhuang Rui.
On his shoulders, including the submachine gun and bullet clip, Zhuang Rui's weight has exceeded 20 kilograms.
"Okay, let's have something to eat..."
Zhuang Rui looked around and saw that this was a mountain col, about two to three hundred square meters in size, with a pool of forty to fifty square meters in the middle. There were steep rock walls on both sides, and there was only a narrow path leading to the unknown front.
"Da da da……"
Suddenly Peng Fei raised the gun in his hand and fired at a big tree 40 to 50 meters away. Zhuang Rui, who was about to sit down, jumped up in shock.
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's just a lynx..."
Peng Fei ran under the big tree, reached out and picked up a dead big cat from the ground. After walking back, he threw it directly to the pond and said: "This thing is very aggressive. No ordinary leopard can fight it. If
If we don't kill it or frighten it away, we will definitely be attacked by it when we pass by there later..."
Zhuang Rui saw that the bobcat weighed about thirty or forty pounds. It looked about the same size as the leopard he had seen on TV, but it was covered with gray stripes and down, and did not have the golden fur of a leopard.
It is somewhat similar to the color of those trees.
There were three bullet holes in the bobcat's body. One of them was shot on the head, which seemed to open its skull. Zhuang Rui felt sick and quickly stepped back.
"Brother Zhuang, let's eat something first. We don't have time today. Otherwise, don't look at the sour cat meat. If you cook it with a snake, it will taste good. The main ingredients used in the Dragon Tiger Fight dish are delicious.
Not as good as this lynx..."
Peng Fei found a place near the rock wall, cleaned up the surrounding weeds, and then asked Zhuang Rui to sit down. In order to rush for time, they had eaten nothing since morning, and now their physical strength was exhausted.
It's too big and needs to be added.
The food they ate was very simple. They were rice dumplings steamed with glutinous rice, and the vegetables were also dried radishes. Both of them were so hungry that they each ate three or four glutinous rice dumplings. After drinking a few sips of water, they gradually became energetic.
Recovered.
Although Zhuang Rui's body was not very tired, his mind was always tense. This trip was an eye-opener for him. He even saw more than a dozen kinds of venomous snakes, and also saw a group of black-haired snakes.
A monkey that doesn't look like an orangutan.
Zhuang Rui didn't know that this was a black snub-nosed monkey unique to Myanmar. It was no less rare than the domestic golden monkey. Many people in Myanmar ventured into Savage Mountain just to capture this kind of monkey and sell it to China at a high price.
.
Of course, the so-called big price is just the understanding of the Burmese people. For these Burmese people whose average monthly salary is equivalent to 300 yuan, a sum of 12,000 rem is a lot of money.
"Hey, we have brought all these things. I'm afraid Brother Zhang and the others don't even have anything to eat now..."
After Zhuang Rui had finished eating, he stood up, patted his belly comfortably, and said proudly to Peng Fei, but he could also guess that Zhang Guojun and others must have no intention of eating at this time, and were instead in the world
The search for two people.
Although he felt guilty, there was nothing Zhuang Rui could do about it. He couldn't publicize this treasure map all over the world. The most he could do was wait until he went back and say a few more good things about them in front of Hu Rong.
"Brother Zhuang, hush..."
Peng Fei, who was sitting on the ground drinking water, suddenly tensed up. He picked up the submachine gun next to him with one hand and strung it in front of Zhuang Rui.
"Brother Hu, that's what happened. It was my fault that Brother Zhuang and Brother Peng got lost. I will go back to look for him right now..."
Zhang Guojun, who is nearly 190 centimeters tall, is standing in front of the thin Hu Rong with his head lowered and a look of shame on his face. The expressions on the faces of the row of people standing behind him are not very natural.
Seeing Hu Rong looking at him, Ma Liu couldn't help but take the dead birds with colorful feathers in his hands behind him, avoiding Hu Rong's sight.
To say that Zhang Guojun and others' harvest today was quite rich. Not only did they catch seven or eight birds, but they also caught a small wild boar weighing more than 40 kilograms. This was blocked by them in the morning when there was no water source.
Unfortunately, the adult wild boar in that mountain col ran away.
However, these trophies did not bring joy to Zhang Guojun and others, because they waited at the col for nearly two hours and did not see Zhuang Rui or the others.
