Lu Mian's pupils narrowed slightly, and he focused his eyesight, then frowned and said, "That dress is the uniform of the Federal Army."

Brother Li secretly exchanged colors with Zhao Jing through a few people, then untied the spider silk on his body and walked to the right, "Xiao Lu, come with me."

Lu Mian also untied the spider's thread and followed them. At the same time, another figure in the team also followed the two of them in time.

Lu Mian turned his head and looked at Nan Xiaohe who was following behind him.

Nan Xiaohe: "I want to see if there is any news about our R alliance."

Lu Mian nodded, Nan Xiaohe's approach is not too much, after all, many people in their R alliance disappeared in the border forest.

The three of them bypassed a large area of ​​dead branches and leaves that had been corroded on the ground, and stood far away from the pitcher plants.

Brother Li picked up a long branch from the side, picked up the half-corroded piece of clothing, and then brought over the pitch-black pistol/gun on the ground.

There was still a lot of liquid from the pitcher of the pitcher plant on the clothes and pistols/guns, so they couldn't take it directly, they had to use branches to spread out the wrinkled clothes as much as possible.

Some special materials were added to the military uniforms of the Federal Army to make the clothes have a certain corrosion resistance. It is this material that allows this military/uniform to remain until now.

But even so, the color of this dress has been corroded to a certain extent, the dark green background has been bleached to whitish, and the things on the shoulder straps have been corroded, leaving only shallow marks.

Brother Li squatted down/covered his nose, and identified the clothes, "This is the military uniform of the major/college. In the previous team, there was only one person who was a minor/college officer/rank, named Sun Bojing. a gun..."

Brother Li got closer, and used a branch to turn the gun that had been changed beyond recognition, "This gun is not ours."

Lu Mian glanced at Brother Li, "Things for the two of you?"

At this moment, Nan Xiaohe's voice came from not far away, "There are more here, come and have a look."

Lu Mian and Brother Li looked up and saw Nan Xiaohe holding a white object with a branch.

They got up and walked towards Nan Xiaohe, Nan Xiaohe put the white object on the ground, pointed to the blurred mark in the middle of the object, "Look."

Lu Mian half-closed his eyes, and could vaguely recognize a small piece of complicated lines printed on it.

That's the logo of the R League.

Nan Xiaohe: "This is what our R Alliance uses to make military shoes, and this is the only piece left."

After finishing speaking, Nan Xiaohe pulled out another dark thing.

Lu Mian took a closer look and saw that it was a zipper puller.

Nan Xiaohe turned the zipper head in the other direction, revealing a relatively flat back.

It also has the R Alliance logo on it.

Nan Xiaohe put away his smile and looked up at the two of them, "This zipper puller with the logo is used on the trousers of our R alliance army/people. If you don't believe me, I can show you."

Said, Nan Xiaohe made a gesture to pull his pants.

What Lu Mian didn't expect was that Brother Li really went up to take a look without any burden.

Brother Li raised his eyebrows, no matter the format or the material, they seemed to be the same, he nodded towards Lu Mian.

Nan Xiaohe pulled up his pants, "It seems that there are at least two people in the pitcher of that pitcher plant."

Lu Mian lowered his eyebrows, and only then did he understand Nan Xiaohe's intention to follow.

If he hadn't followed, they would only see the clothes and the underwear, and it would be easy to pin the blame on the R Alliance. After all, the weapons of the R Alliance and their uniforms of the Federal Army appeared at the same time, and it was hard not to let People think about it.

But now Nan Xiaohe found a piece of the R League sole and the zipper pull on the trousers, which turned the situation around a lot.

After all, weapons may be brought into pitchers for some reason, but shoe soles are not so easy. After all, in this dangerous border forest, even S-level benign mutants dare not go barefoot, let alone open their feet. The gate is open.

Lu Mian looked at Nan Xiaohe with a vague expression in his eyes.

The reason why this person can become the leader of the rescue team is probably because of this reason. He is slick, extremely intelligent, assesses the situation, can see through the situation in front of him at a glance, and come up with corresponding countermeasures.

The three of them searched carefully on the spot again, and after confirming that there were no unnecessary discoveries, the three of them walked back to the team together.

As the dense fog had dispersed, the spider threads around everyone's waists were also untied.

Zhao Jing: "How is it?"

Brother Xiao Li glanced at the mutated pitcher plants that were still blocking them, "Someone will die for sure, but now is not the time to talk about this, let's bypass these pitcher plants first."

The group of people took a deep breath and carefully walked around to the other side.

As they left, the pitcher plants started to stir, as if they sensed that the prey was about to escape, they pushed and pushed, and the roots under the pitcher moved uneasily.

The Nepenthes at the front took the lead, and a group of Nepenthes changed their orientation as they moved, always facing them.

The group passed the pitcher plants without any risk, and just when they were about to breathe a sigh of relief, the pitcher plants that were facing them opened their rhizome legs collectively, and the rustling sound was noisy to everyone's ears.

The expressions on everyone's faces froze for a moment, and their heartbeats stopped for a moment. They looked back with stiff necks, and an extremely weird picture irritated everyone's eyes.

Those pitcher plants actually kept up!

Old Wang: "What... what does this mean? Follow us..."

Have meat to eat?

Brother Chen interrupted Lao Wang in time, "Hey! Stop! Don't talk about the rest!"

Nan Xiaohe said with a sullen face, "How could they follow?"

Brother Li: "What should I do?"

Zhao Jing hissed, "How about we run?"

A moment of silence spread in the team. Regarding this proposal, they didn't know what to say for a while, but it was undeniable that running seemed to be something worth trying.

So, in the huge border forest, a group of people ran in the forest at an extremely fast speed. Behind them, there was a large group of giant pitcher plants over two meters high. It overflowed, corroding the trees and ground along the way into potholes.

That picture is indeed a bit spectacular.

Ten minutes later, under a certain giant tree, a group of people either supported the tree trunk or supported their knees, panting violently on the spot.

And the group of giant pitcher plants lined up neatly behind them.

Brother Li: "Shake...can't shake..."

Brother Lang simply showed his knife, "Cut it off."

Lu Mian looked at his sweat-soaked military uniform, and then at the pitcher plants following him, "Wait a minute."

Everyone looked back at Lu Mian.

Lu Mian's eyes walked around the people on his side for a few times, and finally stopped on Zhao Jing who wore the most clothes.

Lu Mian: "Brother Zhao, take off your clothes."

Hearing this, Zhao Jing's eyes widened in an instant, and he folded his hands in front of his chest, "You, you, you! You are all watching, what do you want to do?"

Lu barely resisted the urge to roll his eyes and explained: "I don't know how long that dress has been soaked, so I want to take a dress and try it on."

He paused, and then said: "Since these pitcher plants don't take the initiative to attack people, there is something strange about the things in that pitcher plant's pitcher, either they were thrown in artificially, or they were accidentally removed from the cage. They fell into it from a high place, but in any case, if you can know how long the military/uniform stayed in the pitcher, you may be able to roughly calculate the approximate time when the previous batch of personnel disappeared."

Hearing this, Brother Li's eyes lit up immediately, "You're right, we don't know much about the former team now, if we can't dig deep into the clues this time, it will be even more difficult to find them!"

Lu Mian nodded, looked at the giant pitcher plants, and asked seriously: "So, which one do you like, pick one?"

Old Wang: "...Huh? Why pick one?"

Lu Mian took out the mantis dagger, "Pick one and keep it, and chop the others!"

------

into the night.

This was the second night after they entered the border forest, the team harvested a giant Nepenthes.

In the woods at night, the temperature dropped sharply. After Lu Mian stripped off a piece of clothing, Zhao Jing could only wrap up his thin little coat tightly.

Zhao Jing: "Hey, who is going to get that dress?"

The pitcher plant was tied to a nearby tree by them. Lao Wang's spider silk was very tough, and it was difficult for the pitcher plant to break free.

Lu Mian tightened the lid of the water bottle, then stood up, "I'll go and have a look."

After speaking, he picked up a relatively thick long wooden stick from the dry firewood pile and walked towards the pitcher plant.

As if sensing something approaching, the pitcher plant opened the cover, and a sweet smell wafted out. This is their usual action when they sense something approaching.

Lu Mian was already somewhat immune to the smell. He climbed up the tree where the pitcher plant was tied, put a long wooden stick into the pitcher and stirred it, and fished out the clothes that had been stripped from Zhao Jing before. out.

This dress has corroded a bit, but it's still much better than the previous one.

He threw the clothes in again, climbed down the trunk in twos and outs, threw away the corroded long wooden stick in his hand, patted the dust on his body, turned and walked towards the tent.

As he left, the cover of the pitcher plant slowly closed, continuing to digest the extremely indigestible clothing in the pitcher.

But at this moment, a slight sound came from behind him, and the sweet aroma lingering at the tip of his nose became richer.

He turned around suspiciously, and found that the cover of the pitcher plant had opened again for some reason, and at the same time, its body was also turning backwards.

Lu Mian took out the mantis dagger and looked sternly into the depths of the dark woods.

If the pitcher plant responds, it means that there is something in that direction!
