Chen Yanyan pointed to the place at her feet, raised her head and looked at Chen Jie seriously.
"There was something that tripped me just now, but why can't I see it now?"
Chen Jie and Chen Yanyan looked at each other. Chen Jie looked towards where Chen Yanyan was pointing and knocked on the ground with the small shovel in his hand. He found nothing unusual.
"Captain, do you believe me? Something really tripped me just now." Chen Yanyan looked at Chen Jie with an aggrieved face, then looked at a flat place, and she began to wonder, could it really be her?
Illusion?
"Okay, the sun is going to set, let's go quickly." Chen Jie didn't want to stay in this weird place for too long, so he reached out to hold Chen Yanyan's arm and pulled her up from the ground.
Chen Yanyan looked at her injured knee and frowned.
"Can I leave?" Chen Jie looked at Chen Yanyan's bleeding wound, looked around, then raised his legs and walked towards the root of the tree.
I picked a few leaves and crushed them hard. Just as I was about to turn around, I heard Chen Yanyan's exclamation.
"Ah..." Chen Yanyan felt an astonishing force kicking her head from behind. Because she was unprepared, her whole body fell forward.
Chen Yanyan fell directly to the ground, feeling like her jaw was about to be knocked off.
When Chen Jie heard the exclamation, he immediately turned his head and saw a long and narrow figure with tile-like scales all over the body, from the top of the forehead to the back, the outside of the limbs, and the back and ventral surface of the tail. The scales were arranged from the center of the back to both sides.
, in the shape of longitudinal rows. The scales are dark brown and the limbs are thick and short, the tail is flat and long, and the back is slightly raised.
The head is conical, with small eyes, a pointed snout, a long tongue, and no teeth.
Isn't this a pangolin? It's just that it's several times larger than what was shown on TV. It weighs about two to three hundred kilograms, which is about the same size as the wild boar just now.
The pangolin's back arched, and its round eyes stared closely at Chen Yanyan who was lying on the ground.
"Captain, captain, I'm in so much pain." Chen Yanyan turned her head and cried to Chen Jie. The pain in her body made Chen Yanyan forget for a moment that she was attacked and fell.
"Don't move." Chen Jie took out the ax from his waist and stared at the pangolin behind Chen Yanyan with a pair of deep eyes.
This pangolin was huge and not easy to deal with, so Chen Jie had to find the right moment to attack.
The pangolin glanced at Chen Jie, raised its paws and pounced on Chen Yanyan.
Chen Jie saw the opportunity and quickly looked in Chen Yanyan's direction.
Seeing the pangolin open its big mouth to reveal its sharp teeth, this scene really shocked Chen Jie. You must know that pangolins usually only eat small creatures such as insects and termites.
When pangolins see people, they will huddle up to protect themselves and attack people. He is really a big girl getting on the sedan head.
Without having time to think about it, Chen Jie stretched out his foot and kicked the pangolin hard.
The pangolin made a weird cry and fell to the ground hard. The moment it landed, it curled up into a ball and rolled twice before stopping.
Chen Yanyan seemed to know that she was in danger just now, so she quickly got up from the ground. When she turned around, she saw the huge pangolin, and she subconsciously wanted to shout.
"Don't make any noise."
Chen Yanyan quickly covered her mouth, suppressing herself from shouting. She was attacked by this thing just now. When she thought of this, Chen Yanyan broke into a cold sweat.
The pangolin rolled twice, spread out its entire body, and rushed towards Chen Jie.
Chen Jie tightened his grip on the ax in his hand, aimed it at the pangolin's head, and struck it.
With a bang, the ax hit the scales of the pangolin directly. The pangolin was not injured at all, but because Chen Jie used too much force, it rolled to the ground.
Chen Jie was mentally disturbed. He didn't expect that the scales of this pangolin were so hard that even an ax could not be seen through. This was really bad.
The pangolins were knocked to the ground one after another by Chen Jie. Looking at Chen Jie at this time, he felt a little afraid.
One person and one armor, looking at each other, time seems to have stopped.
After about a minute or two, the pangolin turned around and ran into the woods, and disappeared within a few seconds.
"Huh, captain, you scared me to death." Chen Yanyan patted her chest and quickly leaned towards Chen Jie. It was safest to be by the captain's side.
"Are you okay?" Chen Jie also breathed a sigh of relief. If the pangolin was unforgiving of them at this time, it's not certain that one of them would be able to beat the other.
Chen Yanyan shook her head and directly reached out to hold Chen Jie's arm, her whole body very close to Chen Jie.
"Captain, let's leave quickly. I don't want to stay here for a moment longer." Chen Yanyan felt that this forest was becoming more and more terrifying.
We haven't even gone out yet. We've encountered wild boars and pangolins one after another. It's safer to go back to the cave.
Chen Jie responded, not caring about applying medicine to Chen Yanyan's wounds, and took Chen Yanyan directly toward the suspension bridge.
The two walked for a while, and Chen Jie stopped. Looking at the familiar surroundings, Chen Jie frowned. They were lost.
"What's wrong, captain, have you discovered anything?" Chen Yanyan tensed up and looked around cautiously.
Chen Jie glanced at Chen Yanyan, walked to a nearby tree, and made a mark with an axe.
"We may be lost." After Chen Jie finished speaking, he made a mark every few trees.
"Captain, we won't encounter any ghosts hitting the wall, right? I heard that thing is very evil." Chen Yanyan said timidly, with some scenes from horror novels appearing in her mind.
"Don't talk nonsense, we will be out soon." Chen Jie comforted Chen Yanyan, carefully observing the surroundings with a pair of sharp eyes.
Not only are the things here huge, but even the animals are weird. For example, the animal that looked like a pangolin just now cannot be called a pangolin at all.
Chen Jie suddenly stopped and spoke with a hint of surprise in his voice.
"Yanyan, I found something good." After saying that, Chen Jie walked towards the weeds beside him.
"What's wrong, captain?" Chen Yanyan quickly followed over and saw Chen Jie looking at the pile of weeds with joy on his face. Could it be some precious medicinal material?
Chen Jie glanced at Chen Yanyan, stretched out his hand to pull up the half-meter-high weeds on the ground, and pulled hard. Several fruits were connected to the roots.
"Is this a red sweet potato?" Chen Yanyan's eyes lit up and she also shouted happily.
"That's right, we can roast red sweet potatoes and eat them tonight." Chen Jie responded and started pulling weeds.
Chen Yanyan picked the red sweet potatoes from the roots and put them together. After a while, the two of them made a small pile.
"How are we going to get it back?" Chen Yanyan looked at the red sweet potatoes in front of her and drooled a little. Roasted red sweet potatoes were her favorite.
