When Mr. Mai saw that they were both silent, he calmed down and said to me, "Zhongyi, we have to think of a way quickly. Let's try to get to the bottom of the mountain before dark. Time is running out."
"I'm thinking about it, please give me some more time." I'm deceiving him, and I'm also deceiving myself. What can I do?
Soul grasses are all evil creatures, and there is nothing I can do about them.
The big man suddenly said again, "I have an idea. Don't we have grenades? Just blow up a way."
"Are you kidding me? You've seen how big this jungle is. Can those eight grenades be used? All the grenades will be used up before you reach the other side." I sneered and said, this big guy knew it.
With grenades, I really don’t want to use my head at all.
"Then... what should we do? If it doesn't work, we can just blow it up as far as we can." The big man was still emphasizing the use of hand grenades.
This time I didn’t need to say anything. Mr. Mai directly rejected him, “You don’t have to think about the grenade. If it explodes in the middle, it’s better not to explode. In the end, you will die.”
The big man was silenced by Mr. Mai's words, and he lowered his head and sat down.
"It would be easier if I had a big knife in my hand. I could just chop off these strange flowers." Mantou curled his lips and said.
"Cut it off? Look at how tall and thick this flower is. You will die before you can chop it off. What's more, we don't have a machete yet, so we are talking such useless nonsense." The big man said this time.
Be smart and see a clearer path.
Li Xin suddenly asked, "Chang Shan, do you have any idea?"
Chang Shan looked at her and said a little embarrassed, "There is a way, but I don't know if it will work."
"What method? Let me tell you." Jiao Bayi heard that Chang Shan had a method, and he was more anxious than anyone else.
"These strange grasses, according to what I just saw, they don't seem to attack humans actively. It's only when we encounter them that they attack. If that's the case, it would be easier to handle. Now we need to
We need to verify one thing. These strange grasses will never attack on their own initiative. Only then can we pass through this jungle." Chang Shan made a comprehensive analysis and found that this person is indeed very unusual. He needs to look it up when he finds time.
His details.
"They will take the initiative to attack, but they need a certain distance. Unless we are too close to them, the smell of humans will attract the attention of these things." Jiao Ba added in time.
"How did you know, Jiao Ba?" Jenny looked at him in surprise and asked.
"Yes, Jiao Ba, do you seem to know these strange flowers very well?" Li Xin looked at him coldly and asked.
At this moment, except Mai Lao and I, I found that everyone else looked at Jiao Ba a little strangely, that kind of unfriendly look.
Jiao Ba looked around and hurriedly explained, "You...why are you all looking at me like that? I'm not a fucking evil person. The reason why I know this is because I've seen it before." When he was anxious, he simply told the truth.
Tell the truth.
"Then have you seen him? Why didn't you say anything just now? This man..." Jenny asked a little angrily.
"Forget it Jenny, Jiao Ba used to be a tomb robber. It's not surprising that he has seen some weird things." Li Xin finally pulled back. I didn't understand what she meant.
"Okay, don't ask me, Chang Shan, tell me your method." Jiao Ba shook himself off and went straight to the topic.
"We can use branches to divert their attacks and take advantage of the time when they attack the branches, so that we can escape. However, time should be very tight, and everyone must keep up. Once someone falls behind, it is likely that they will be killed.
Fatal." After Chang Shan finished speaking, he made an instant killing motion on his neck with his hand.
Jiao Ba and I looked at each other, and he nodded to me, indicating that Chang Shan's decision was feasible. I guess Jiao Ba didn't have any good options. If he had to be absolutely sure, he would have said something long ago. It seems that this is the only way he can do it for now.
.
"Don't we have this in our hands? Why use branches?" The big man picked up the spear I made from branches and shook it in his hand.
Shunzi immediately said, "This won't work. This is the only one we have now. What if we are gone and we are in danger?"
"Well, Shunzi is right. This spear is still useful at critical moments. Zhongyi, what do you think?" Mai Lao asked me.
"Whether it's okay or not, we have to give it a try. I agree with Chang Shan's decision." I was the first to express my position. I didn't want to continue the stalemate.
"I agree too." Jiao Ba spoke for the second time.
Mai Lao followed up and said, "Then let's do it. Just follow Chang Shan's decision. Let's get ready."
When the others saw that Mai Lao agreed, they had no room for objection and could only follow. Everyone knew that now was another bet of life. I found that since we landed on this island, every time we walked
Every step we take is taking our lives as a bet. We don’t know if God will still be fond of us this time.
We found some longer branches around us, and each of us had at least a few in our hands. We wanted to be prepared. I was a little nervous, but when I saw the excited expressions of others, my heart
The tension disappeared again, the desire for life, and everyone was confident of victory.
"You two, follow me closely, don't fall behind." I turned to Jenny and Li Xin and said, they are women after all, and when it comes to serious matters, I'm afraid they won't be able to keep up with us big men.
"Well, I will follow." Jenny nodded to me.
Li Xin didn't say a word, but from the look in her eyes, I understood what she meant. She wanted to tell me that she could handle everything, so that I didn't have to worry about her.
This time it was Chang Shan and Mai Lao who took the lead. "Is everyone ready?" Chang Shan turned around and shouted.
"Let's go, everything is ready." I suddenly felt a bit like going to a battlefield, and everyone was highly concentrated.
"Follow my steps." After Mr. Mai shouted this, he started to set off into the entire jungle of soul-destroying grass. But when he just started, I turned around and saw the mysterious old man again.
, stood not far from us again, staring at us closely.
He was in the jungle behind us, still hiding under a big tree as before. Why does this damn old ghost keep following us? I suddenly thought, could this shriveled old man be?
He is playing tricks on us. Does he want to see us all die here?
I have nothing but hatred for him now. After a second or two, he disappeared again. "Everyone, be careful and pay attention to everything around you." Mr. Mai shouted loudly from the front.
Jenny, Li Xin, and I were in the middle. Jiao Ba came to the rear this time. After walking into the jungle, Chang Shan started his plan. He signaled everyone to stop, and he first hit the soul-destroying grass closest to him with a branch.
When the branch touched the soul-destroying grass, in an instant, other soul-destroying grasses around them also began to attack. While these ghost grasses were attacking, Mr. Mai suddenly shouted, "Run quickly."
Chang Shan and Mai Lao rushed forward fiercely, and Shunzi and the others quickly followed. I grabbed Jenny's arm and rushed over with her. After coming over, I quickly looked back and saw that Li Xin and Jiao
8. They came over safely.
Chang Shan changed a branch and started hitting the soul-destroying grass in front of him again. All of this was continuous and there was no time to stop. In fact, by the time he passed through the previous soul-destroying grass, he would have already taken action. If he hadn't taken action
, there is no way to go, and he is easily attacked.
It was still the same as before. As soon as he made a move, the surrounding soul-destroying grasses began to attack again. We took advantage of this opportunity and continued to move forward quickly. We must not stop in the middle. We must do it in one go. Chang Shan and Mai Lao are the most critical.
.
So our journey along the way is equivalent to Chang Shan and Mai Lao constantly opening the way in front, and we just have to follow closely from behind. As long as no accidents happen, we should be able to safely rush through the area of the Soul-Destroying Grass.
As expected, Mai Lao and Chang Shan were not simple. They cooperated tacitly and were very fast. They were dodging around in the jungle, even faster than the special forces.
The rest of us braved our waists and quickly followed behind. Mai Lao reminded us almost all the way, "Pass, pass quickly, follow closely, don't fall behind, and watch the people next to you."
We were getting closer and closer to the bottom of the hillside. I was holding Jenny while running all the way. I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to keep up with us. If we made a mistake, it would be too late to regret it. Just when we were about to rush out of the jungle, another
An accident happened.
When I pulled Jenny and almost rushed out of the jungle, Li Xin suddenly shouted from behind, which caught my attention. I turned around quickly and almost broke out in a cold sweat. I don’t know when, when Li Xin
A group of black snakes actually sprang out in front of him.
There are probably more than a dozen black snakes in this group. They are staring at Li Xin with their snake bodies raised, and they may attack at any time. I seem to have seen such black snakes somewhere.
I suddenly remembered that I had seen these black snakes in the forbidden area of the Ming Dynasty shipwreck before. They were the strange snakes with oval heads, no eyes, and very thin bodies.
How could this strange snake appear here? I suddenly realized that this strange and mysterious island must be the next stop we are looking for, and this black snake is the best proof.
All this happened too fast. It didn't matter if Li Xin stopped, Jiao Ba and the others behind them could only stop.
Jiao Ba shouted anxiously from the back, "Why did the one in front of me stop? Come on, I can't hold it anymore."
Only then did I notice that the surrounding soul-destroying grasses were too close to Li Xin and the others, and Jiao Ba was making his final struggle with the few branches he had.
Once the branches are used up and there is nothing left in his hand to attract the soul-destroying grass, then their game will be over and they will all become soulless skins.
Now they have no way to go. They are blocked by a strange snake in front, and there are soul-destroying grasses behind and around them. This is simply more dangerous than being surrounded on all sides...
