Another day of exhausting marching, a group of 13 people found a place suitable for camping to rest and prepare to eat.Everyone's exhaustion is obvious, but no one knows how long it will take to reach the finish line.

The supplies have been exhausted. Although the air humidity in the tropical rainforest is enough for the condenser to provide moisture for everyone, it is difficult to replenish the food.Even if Montezuma kept silent about it, experienced scholars could easily judge the difficulties at the moment from the dwindling rationing.

"Mr. Montezuma, with all due respect." Blake spoke in a rare initiative. He usually disdains to talk to non-caucasians. "I know that there is not enough food. We must find a way."

Montezuma's hand, which was distributing the food, frowned displeasedly: "This is not your business."

"Then you at least tell me your solution, or there will be a commotion. I don't think you want this to happen, do you?"

Montezuma remained silent, as if he was also worried about this matter.Black said again: "But I have a suggestion, I don't know if I should say it."

"Stop talking nonsense, just say what you want to say." Qiao Hai was impatient.He has always hated posturing guys, but the scholars in the team are all masters of putting on a tune.

Black glanced at Qiao Hai contemptuously, and said unhurriedly: "Anyway, your weapons rely on solar energy storage, so you don't have to worry about ammunition. Why don't you just go hunting in the forest. This is how we left the rainforest more than 20 years ago. .”

"Energy storage also takes time, great biologist," Qiao Mai taunted, "Whether it is a laser beam emitter or a blue light dagger, it needs to convert the energy in the sun before it can be used. But you Looking at the denseness of the tropical rainforest, there is very little energy that can be used, and Rogers almost died because of it. Weapons should be used sparingly, Mr. Scholar."

Black was run over by Qiao Mai twice in three days, panting like an angry bull at this time, wishing to fight Qiu Mai.However, although Qiao Mai is thin, he is still 1.8 meters tall, and the muscles covered under the clothes are not for nothing.

"Don't make trouble." Rogers stopped Qiao Mai, who was obviously looking for trouble, and the latter instantly changed from a wolf dog to a little sheep: "Okay dear~"

"..." Rogers ignored.

"Okay, just do as you said, then let's start today." Montezuma thought about it seriously, agreed to his suggestion, and took back the food that was going to be distributed to everyone by the way, "Me and Qiao Hailiu Come down to protect the scholars, and the others go hunting. Mr. Black, you should follow, in case they bring back any poisonous items."

Blake was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that he had dug himself into the dangerous rainforest, and other scholars also stared at him with hatred.It's a pity that this is my own suggestion, and it's hard to refute it now, so I can only bite the bullet.

The mercenaries set off with guns and daggers. Before leaving, Qiao Hai specially prepared a small knife for Black to defend himself, but Black had only seen Qiao Hai use it to cut bread.

The rainforest at dusk is darker than the plains, and the overly dense bushes block too much sunlight, even in the daytime it may not be so bright.There are strange noises everywhere, surrounded by all directions, which is creepy.This is a place that has existed for thousands of years. Even if human beings claim to be the rulers of the planet, they have no advantage here.

After Blake walked for 10 minutes, he realized that his original assumption was too naive.There are all kinds of strange animals here, but few of them are suitable for human consumption; there are many kinds of plants here, but few of them can be eaten.He thought he could do what the captain and Joe could do 20 years ago, but now he finds himself helpless in the face of a large number of animals and plants.

"Hey, biologist, we have been walking for so long, which one is the hunting target?" Jack asked him irritably.

Black wiped the sweat from his head, his fingers trembling slightly: "Wait, look again, but I haven't found a suitable one yet."

Martin heard the words in a bad tone: "Still looking for it? If you go too far, you will get lost! Do you know how dangerous it is to get lost in the rainforest? No one will leave us a guide this time."

Black sweated even more: "Wait! I told you to wait! Come if you have the ability! The poisonous plants can kill you in only 3 minutes!"

As illiterate mercenaries, Jack and Martin had to swallow their anger and wait for the arrogant scholar to point out the prey for them.

Qiao Mai on the other side was not in a hurry, he was busy sticking with Rogers.

It has been a week since the handcuffs were put on. In order to fulfill the agreement with Rogers, Qiao Mai crazily killed the rest of his teammates, which was specifically reflected in the number of goose bumps on the expedition team.Qiao Mai has no guilt about this, but brazenly shows off his and Rogers' "couple bracelet" to others.

"...can you stay away from me?" Rogers looked down at Qiao Mai with a headache.The latter was holding Rogers' arm at this time, pressing his face tightly against his shoulder, which made it difficult for the two to move at the same time, "It's impossible to hunt at all."

"No!" Qiao Mai shook his head violently, the broken hair on his head scraped Rogers' face, scratching his heart itchy, "What if the handcuffs explode? For the sake of our personal safety, we should stay close." A little better!"

"...It will explode at a distance of 100 meters."

"That's not okay, what if this is a fake and shoddy product?"

"..." Although he had made the determination to break the boat, Rogers still had some regrets at this time.

Just when everyone was upset about the lawsuit, a gunshot scared countless birds into the air.After everyone reacted, Qiao Mai rushed out joyfully and brought back his prey:

The boa constrictor with a thick bowl mouth has diamond-shaped patterns on its body.

"Blake, check to see if it's poisonous." Qiao Mai was delighted.

Rogers walked over helplessly: "How many times have I told you not to call me black!"

"I didn't mention you," Qiao Mai drove away Rogers, and shouted at Black, "Come here! I remember this kind is not poisonous."

Black frowned: "It's not poisonous, and it can't be eaten."

Qiao Mai raised his eyebrows: "Oh."

In the camp, everyone waited anxiously, Qiao Hai even exaggerated to the point of pacing round and round, making everyone dizzy.

Montezuma grabbed him with a headache: "Even if you are worried about Qiao Mai, Rogers is still here."

Qiao Hai stared angrily: "It's not you! None of them have experience in night operations, it's too dangerous to go out rashly."

Montezuma was wronged and shut up.

Suddenly Qier Yisa stood up, looked at the forest and said happily: "They are back!" Qiao Hai gave him a surprised look, obviously he didn't notice anything.

However, after a while, there were indeed footsteps in the woods, and Qiao Mai and Rogers appeared with something long in their arms.

"Oh my god, this is... a boa constrictor? Are you crazy?" Li Yongzhu cried out.

Gao Lingyun looked disgusted: "You hunted this kind of thing? Can this be eaten?"

With a sound of "Peng", the huge python was thrown in front of Gao Lingyun, which startled him greatly.

"What can I eat?" Qiao Mai clapped his hands, "I'm Chinese."

After finishing speaking, he began to clean up the python carefully, and Qiao Hai also stepped forward to help.

So everyone watched Uncle Mai and his nephew and uncle clean and disinfect the snake in an orderly manner, skin it and bleed it, cut it into pieces and put it in a pot, all of them showed a horrible expression.

Zier Isa quietly leaned into Cohen's ear: "Fortunately, the Chinese didn't come here back then, otherwise the rainforest would not have grown a blade of grass."

However, Qiao Mai didn't pay attention to the attitude of others, and was still stirring the snake meat in the pot with great interest, and put some unnamed plants into it from time to time.To everyone's surprise, the cooked snake meat exudes a wonderful aroma, which is quite attractive.

"Okay, let's eat~" Qiao Mai divided the snake meat into bowls and handed it to others, "It's meat no matter what!"

Rogers was the first to take it, and started eating with a blank expression.

When eating strange things like this, there is often someone who starts it, and then it is much easier. Most people endure the nausea and start eating.But after the entrance, I found that the taste was okay, not so unacceptable.

"Eat~" Qiao Mai handed the bowl to Gao Ye, but Gao Ye's face turned blue, and he refused to accept it: "No! Don't give it to me! This smell is too fishy, ​​I can't stand it!"

Qiao Mai blinked suspiciously: "Foody? Impossible, I put so many herbs to remove the fishy smell."

Gao Ye pushed the bowl away: "No, I don't smell well. Let me be hungry and talk about it tomorrow."

"No, such a big snake is our ration for several days, you can't stop eating it forever." Qiao Mai frowned, thought for a while, then suddenly took out a piece of black wood from his pocket, chopped it into pieces and sprinkled it into the bowl .

"How about this? Try again."

Takano sniffed it carefully, and the fishy smell really went away a lot, and he finally drank it reluctantly.

The people who took the bowl dispersed to find a place to sit and eat.Zier Issa saw a protruding stone, sat on it to eat, and one accidentally dripped soup on his lap.

Qier Yisa hurriedly lowered his head and wiped it, and suddenly his eyes were fixed somewhere...

"Monte! Monte, come and see this stone! Is it this?! This is it!"

The rest of the people, who were startled by his excited shout, gathered around and looked over as Zier Issa pointed, only to find that the stone that Zier Issa was sitting on just now was covered with patterns.The stone was covered with mud and moss, and there were many small grasses growing on it. If Zier Isa hadn't looked carefully, he wouldn't have been able to find it at all.

Li Yongzhu said happily: "This is not a stone! This is a Mayan totem pole! We discovered this 20 years ago before we judged that there are large-scale ruins nearby!"

"That's right! That's it!" I didn't expect to find this by accident, and the rest of the scholars couldn't hide their excitement, "It was only half buried back then, and now that's all that's left... The ancient city is not far away. Thanks Mr Zileisa!"

Hearing this, Qiao Mai looked at Qier Yisa, but found that his eyes were emitting a strange light, as if he couldn't hear other people's words at all.

"Mr. Qier Yisa!" Qiao Mai threw his arms around his neck, "Thanks to you!"

At this moment, Qier Yisa suddenly came back to his senses, and smiled embarrassedly.But Rogers looked at him and always felt that his smile was very strange.

The others didn't notice the difference in Zier Issa. They were immersed in the joy of arriving at the ruins of the ancient city soon, as if they could already see their fame rising again.

"To celebrate our discovery!" Montezuma was unusually elated, and took out a water glass from his backpack, "Let's have a drink!"

The water glass was filled with brandy, and Montezuma distributed a glass to everyone, and everyone toasted happily.

That night, the expedition team swept away the previous dullness, celebrated the new discovery loudly, and didn't fall asleep until very late.Although the wine given to everyone was not enough to make people drunk, the joyful atmosphere made the group feel elated and fell asleep contentedly.

Early the next morning, a new incident happened: Takano died.

When the breakfast was ready, Takano couldn't scream.Li Yongzhu, who realized the accident, called Cohen in a panic, but found that Gao Ye's body was already cold.

After Cohen's examination, he put away the medical equipment and explained to everyone who was feeling heavy again:

"Death from coronary artery embolism is quite normal for a person of Mr. Takano's age."

Montezuma's face was ashen. Seeing the progress of the expedition but another death, this made him feel extremely bad: "What caused it?"

Cohen said: "Excessive excitement yesterday, coupled with the stimulation of alcohol, caused sudden death. Does Mr. Takano have high blood pressure?"

Gao Lingyun, who has a good relationship with Gao Ye, nodded.

"Long-term high blood pressure is also an inducement. It can only be said that Mr. Takano is too unfortunate to have such an accident."

Silence permeated the team, and everyone was in a bad mood.

"Let me tell you," cried the timid Lee Young-soo, "this is a curse! We are all going to die! This is our punishment!"

The faces of Montezuma and Zier Issa changed drastically, and Montezuma knocked Li Yongsu down with a punch: "Absurd! Damn things like this are all folk rumors, how can you believe them!"

Li Yongzhu covered his face and looked at Montezuma in a daze: "Folk rumors?"

Montezuma froze, as if realizing that he had slipped his tongue, he hurriedly turned around and ordered everyone: "Pack up your things and start immediately! If you are afraid of dying in the rainforest, hurry up!"

The people did not dare to disobey him, and acted according to what Montezuma said.Yang Sheng, who had always lacked a sense of presence, grabbed Montezuma's backpack for the first time and asked him: "You have nothing to hide from us, right?"

Montezuma narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "Of course not, we are teammates."

Yang Sheng smiled miserably and left.

Rogers, who saw the interaction between the two, asked Qiu Mai suspiciously while packing the cooking utensils: "I also think Montezuma is hiding something."

"Are you kidding?" Qiao Mai hung his backpack on Rogers, and said casually, "Don't think too much about it."

Rogers was keenly aware that Qiu Mai became indifferent at this moment, and instinctively felt that he was lying.But the next second Qiao Mai smiled meanly again: "Maybe he concealed the fact that he secretly hid uncle's underwear?"

"..."

Rogers kept his mouth shut. If Qiao Mai refused to speak, Rogers didn't want to force him.

The author has something to say:

. . . .Coronary artery embolism, a high-end disease, I found on Baidu~ I really don’t know how to die~ The author is really an ignorant girl, professionals don’t want to beat me up. . . . .

And if I didn't read the outline, I would have forgotten the role of Yang Sheng. . .Why do I have to write so many people? ! !

. . . .Why don't I write about a big tiger who eats everyone in one bite, and insists on racking their brains to make them die? ! !

. . . .Tired of writing (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻...
