The person driving the three of Qin Haodong was still the bald Xie Zidan, but compared with the previous few days, Xie Zidan's attitude had changed significantly. In the past, he didn't talk to Qin Haodong at all, but now he started chatting.
Although he also spent 1 million, he was still very grateful to Qin Haodong from the bottom of his heart. If it weren't for him, he would have died at the hands of the Five Poison Mercenary Group.
The two Humvees traveled slowly for another day, and as evening approached, they were getting closer and closer to their destination.
"Are we almost there?" Hu Xiaoxian asked.
"Let me take a look." Xie Zidan said, bringing up the electronic map in the car to see how far away they were from their marked destination.
"We are indeed almost there. At this speed, we will be there in half a day tomorrow, but the road ahead is becoming increasingly difficult and dangerous.
The area we are going to enter is called the Death Zone. According to previous investigation data, 18 expeditions have been here, but they disappeared completely after entering the Death Zone, and not even a bit of information was transmitted."
As he was talking, the electronic map suddenly flickered, then turned into a snowflake, and there was no longer any display.
"What's going on? Is there no signal here? Our car is connected to a military satellite signal, and it can't disappear."
Xie Zidan was playing with the electronic map as he spoke, but it was still a snowflake and there was no response.
Hu Xiaoxian took out his mobile phone and looked at it and said: "Don't look, our mobile phone is also connected to a military satellite, but now there is no signal at all."
Xie Zidan sighed: "This place is really evil. No wonder no information was sent out after the expedition team came in. It turns out that any electronic equipment has no signal when it arrives here."
Qin Haodong said: "This is normal. If it wasn't evil, it wouldn't be called a death zone."
Xie Zidan said: "Dr. Qin, we have a mission on our shoulders and have to come. If you have nothing to do, you might as well leave. It is too dangerous here, and you have a child with you."
Qin Haodong knew that he meant well and said with a smile: "The medicinal materials I want to collect are only found in the death zone. If I withdraw now, all my efforts will be wasted."
As they were talking, the Hummer drove into a small valley. This valley covers an area of about one square kilometer. It is completely different from the outside. There is not much vegetation here, it is all green grass. Entering from the dense forest.
Here one feels suddenly at ease.
The most surprising thing is that there is a water pool in the center of the valley. The water pool is not too big, but it is very clear. There is also a small island of twenty or thirty square meters in the middle of the water pool. This structure of rings within one ring can't help but make people wonder.
Let people marvel at the wonder of the Creator.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and there was not much light in the forest, but the place was dyed golden by the setting sun, and it looked absolutely beautiful.
"Daddy, this place is so beautiful, it's like a world in a fairy tale." The little guy jumped happily in Qin Haodong's arms. Living in the forest for so many days really made her feel a little depressed.
However, after entering here, Qin Haodong frowned. Hu Xiaoxian, who was also in a good mood, glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like it here?"
"It's not that I don't like it, but I have a bad feeling."
He made another divination casually, and it was indeed a bad omen.
At this time, the Humvee in front stopped. Lei Tianrui and others got out of the car and began to unload equipment from the vehicle. It seemed that they were preparing to camp near the waterhole.
Qin Haodong said to Hu Xiaoxian: "I feel very bad about this place. Please tell them if we can move forward for a while before camping."
Hu Xiaoxian said: "Are you tired? I think this place is very good, very suitable for camping."
Qin Haodong said seriously: "If you believe me, just change the place. This is definitely not a joke."
"Okay, I'll go tell them right now."
Hu Xiaoxian was very convinced of Qin Haodong's magical performance along the way. Although he liked the beautiful scenery here very much, he still decided to believe in Qin Haodong.
Although I felt bad, I couldn't deny that the scenery here was really good. Qin Haodong also got out of the car with the little guy in his arms and walked around the pool.
The depth of the pool can be three to four meters, and the width can be 12 to 3 meters. The water is so clear that you can see the pebbles at the bottom, and there are also some unknown fish swimming around. Maybe these fish have never seen humans and have never seen them before.
Not knowing fear, the two of them still swam happily after meeting Qin Haodong.
At this time, Hu Xiaoxian came to Lei Tianrui and others and said, "Let's not camp here. Let's go a little further ahead and then find a suitable place to camp."
Lei Tianrui said: "Xiaoxian, are you stupid? The scenery here is so beautiful, it is simply a paradise on earth, and camping here is perfect."
Hu Xiaoxian said: "Haodong said that he doesn't feel good about this place and is very likely to be in danger, so we'd better change places."
Upon hearing that it was Qin Haodong's idea, Lei Tianrui's face suddenly turned cold.
Dong Sihai said with disdain: "Xiaoxian, you must not listen to him. He is just a doctor. He can treat diseases, but I am a jungle expert. No one is better than me at surviving in this big forest."
That’s it.”
As he spoke, he pointed around and said, "Look at the environment here, beauty is secondary, safety is the most important thing. There are no tall trees around. If there are wild animals, we can find them immediately. Even if there is an irresistible situation, this
There is also a small island in the pool. We can take shelter on the island.
I have been living in the forest for more than ten years, and I have never seen a place more suitable for camping than here. He actually said that this place is not good. I can only say that he is too ignorant."
At the end of the sentence, he turned his face away and almost yelled at Qin Haodong.
Zhao Qiankun also said: "That's right, Xiaoxian, you don't have to listen to him on everything. We are members of Xuanyuan Pavilion, and the ones with the lowest cultivation level are also Mingjin ninth-level warriors. We have never seen big winds and waves, so there is no need to listen to a pretty boy."
Nonsense."
"If you don't listen, then you won't listen. There is no need to attack others."
Although Hu Xiaoxian was dissatisfied with these people's attitude towards Qin Haodong, he also felt that what they said made sense. This place did look very suitable for camping.
Qin Haodong also overheard the conversation of several people. He stepped over and said, "I'm just saying this. It's up to you to believe it or not."
Dong Sihai said disdainfully: "It's weird to believe you. I'm a jungle expert. If this place is still dangerous, there will be no safe place."
Qin Haodong didn't say much more. He just needed to explain some things clearly. Even if there was danger, he was confident that he could protect the little guy and Hu Xiaoxian. As for other people, he couldn't care so much.
"What are you pretending to be? You're just a little doctor, and you're pretending to be a jungle expert." After Zhao Qiankun said this, he spat on the ground. He was usually the most stingy, and now Qin Haodong took away 3 million in succession. He already hated Qin Haodong in his heart.
Gotta die.
Dong Sihai said: "Boss, don't worry. This place is far away from the forest and is not suitable for hunting. I'll see what else he eats tonight."
Zhao Qiankun said: "That is, if there is no food by then, he will have to come over and beg us..."
As he was speaking, a burst of aroma suddenly wafted over. When he turned around, he saw that Qin Haodong and three others had set up a bonfire and put four or five plump fresh fish on the fire to bake.
And in addition to grilled fish, there is also wine and meat there, which looks very sumptuous.
Wang Yuancheng exclaimed in surprise: "Holy shit, is he Doraemon? How can there be so much food in such a small backpack?"
Lei Tianrui's face also became very ugly. Although they brought sufficient equipment, they only had some dry food and plastic-sealed meat products, which was far behind compared with others.
At the same time, his plan to use food to blackmail Qin Haodong and get back the 30 million he threw out was ruined.
Zhao Qiankun said: "No, we must find another way."
Lei Tianrui said: "Actually, it's easy to cause trouble with him. She has been working on our car from the beginning to the end. All we have to do is ask him to collect some fares."
Zhao Qiankun slapped his head and said, "Yeah, why didn't I remember that this guy took his children in our Hummer, and charging him 1 million a day is not too much."
Lei Tianrui said: "How can 1 million a day be enough? We threw out 30 million, and at this rate it will take 30 days to get it back. We don't have that much time, so we collected 5 million a day."
"I know, boss." Zhao Qiankun shouted with excitement: "I will go to him now and ask for the money. If he doesn't pay, he will walk on his own tomorrow."
Qin Haodong was shaving fish bones from the little guy's flesh. When he saw Zhao Qiankun coming over, he said, "What's the matter? You're here to collect protection money from me again, right?"
Zhao Qiankun's expression froze, but he still said shamelessly: "We won't collect the protection fee. Then if you ride in our car every day, you will have to pay some fare. Our boss said, 5 million a day. If you don't pay, you will walk on your own."
Hu Xiaoxian said angrily: "Five million? Why don't you go and grab it? Although these two Hummers have been modified, the price is only around 3 million. You actually charge 5 million for a day of riding. Are you crazy about money?"
Zhao Qiankun said plausibly: "That's different. We are in Shennongjia here. It's very dangerous if we walk. Special places naturally require special fees. Five million a day is considered cheap."
In fact, Qin Haodong didn't care whether he took the car or not, and now that he was close to the underground palace, it would be more convenient for him to go alone with the little guy.
But at this moment, a roar of wild beasts came from the edge of the basin, and a huge leopard rushed over quickly.
"No, there's a beast!"
As Hu Xiaoxian spoke, he reached out and pulled out the Purple Lightning Sword from his waist, and stood guard in front of Qin Haodong and the little guy.
"It's really useless. You need a woman to protect you!" Zhao Qiankun seemed to have finally found a chance to show off. He pulled out a single knife from his back and faced the leopard. As he walked, he said, "I'll let you see it today."
See what a pure man is."
But as soon as he walked out, he suddenly froze with a dull expression. There was not only a leopard in front of him, but various wild beasts rushed in from the edge of the basin, including black bears, tigers, wolves, rhinos, and zebras.
, yellow sheep, these beasts have become one, but the leopard is the fastest, so it rushes in first.
Zhao Qiankun didn't care about anything. He turned around and ran back. He no longer cared about showing that he was a pure man. So many beasts would trample him to death, not to mention that he was only a ninth-grade Mingjin.
Even if his cultivation level reaches another level, he will never be able to defeat so many ferocious beasts.
Not only him, but everyone here became nervous. Lei Tianrui shouted to Dong Sihai: "What on earth is going on?"
Dong Sihai said with a confused look: "I don't know, I've never seen anything like this before. It looks like the legendary beast tide."
