Between life and death [unlimited]

A bird was standing on a tall broad-leaved tree that had been knocked down by lightning and hung horizontally in mid-air.

This unlucky Wangtian tree, which may be only a dozen years old, should never have imagined that its final fate would become a bridge between the narrow ridges on both sides for different animals to inhabit.

And the beautiful bird standing on it with a big head but an unusually slender neck and a large ivory beak like a rhinoceros horn is a crested hornbill that is relatively rare in the real world.

Its plumage unfolded in the air is brown-black with a cyan metallic luster, and the wing edges, flight feathers and tail feathers also present a very brilliant white color.The bird's beak has a large hood, and it looks like it might be a male hornbill out foraging for its mate.

The hornbill is also known as the "bird of love".This is mainly because in a pair of hornbills, if one of them dies, the other one will never survive or find a new love, but will starve to death for his partner in grief like a sacrificial burial.

This is also an extremely loyal bird.

The pair of huge blood-red eyes slowly rolled in the eye sockets, and it stared closely at the two strange species that it had never seen before slowly walking towards it from a distance.

Jiang Lai waved the snatched dagger in his hand expressionlessly, and cut off the tangled vines and vines on both sides of the road in one stroke, opening a way for the two of them.

The air around them was still sultry and humid, and the chirping of insects and birds were endless. The further they walked, the more they found that they were going deep into this mysterious tropical rainforest.

Although Jiang Lai opened the way ahead, it was not easy for Si Yufeng who was walking behind him.

There are countless vines with fresh white wounds on the side of the road, like spears that have just been sharpened, constantly cutting Si Yufeng's exposed naked skin.There were several bloodstains on his hands and face.

But these small scratches are nothing to him.

Si Yufeng suddenly called forward: "Jiang Xun..." His tone was weak.

"Huh?" Jiang Shui sounded like he was replying in a nasal voice.But he didn't stop his footsteps, and continued to open the way for the two of them.

"...Can we rest for a while?" Si Yufeng didn't want to make this request at all, but he really couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to make a suggestion to his teammates.

In fact, Si Yufeng is now completely gritting his teeth and insisting on walking.

Because of the frantic escape just now, a large amount of lactic acid had already accumulated in his leg muscles, coupled with the muscle strain caused by the sudden movement, he should be experiencing a soreness that may be unforgettable forever.

Naturally, Jiang Xun couldn't understand Si Yufeng's feelings personally, so he didn't quite understand this request.After all, staying where they are is currently of no benefit to them.

However, when he heard his teammate's proposal, he nodded and agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

Then, Jiang Lai scanned the surrounding environment—here is near the water, there may be some insects or other small animals by the water, and he said to Si Yufeng: "Let's go for a while, and then let's rest. .”

But Si Yufeng was so sore that he couldn't bear it anymore, so he refuted Jiang Lu's proposal for the first time, "Let's go here. Jiang Lu, let's rest here for a while, and then we can continue our journey."

"Okay." Seeing that his teammates insisted, Jiang Lai simply agreed directly.

Si Yufeng finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jiang Li agreed.He thought he could finally rest for a while.

So he immediately found a stone that looked a little cleaner and sat down.And when he made the movement of squatting down, he really realized how sore his legs are now.

Jiang Lai found that Si Yufeng was sitting down very slowly while holding on to the rock. This movement was really weird, and then he noticed that his lips were tightly closed at the moment, and his face was not very good, as if he was gritting his teeth to endure. What do you look like.

So Jiang Lai took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong with you?"

But Si Yufeng finally sat on the rock at this moment, just shook his head, "No...it's all right now."

God knows how much he doesn't want to get up now, he just wants to sit like this forever and never move again.

"Do you have a leg pain?" Jiang Lun noticed Si Yufeng's small movements of secretly massaging himself to relax his leg muscles, so he asked him again.

"No, I'm just tired from walking and want to take a rest." Si Yufeng subconsciously didn't want to tell the truth, he said with a smile: "My legs don't hurt very much, I should be fine after taking a rest."

Si Yufeng's original intention was not to let Jiang Xun know that his leg hurts.Although he knew in his heart that he was useless, his strong self-esteem didn't want him to appear so weak in front of Jiang Lai.

Although, the reality always backfires... Si Yufeng sometimes thinks that he should be a "oil bottle" image to Jiang Shang.

But Jiang Lai obviously didn't believe his words.

Although he didn't say anything, Si Yufeng felt guilty that the message in his eyes was "Do you think my eyes are for decoration?"

Fortunately, Jiang Lai didn't say anything after hearing his "disguise".

In fact, a large part of their harmonious relationship stems from Jiang Xun's Buddhist attitude--the treatment of the two people's cohabitation life, the tasks they performed together, and the treatment of Si Yufeng who has been hiding his true identity.

Speechless for a while.

Both of them tacitly maintained the silence of the surrounding environment, as if the only sound left was the gurgling water.

——It sounds like Si Yufeng's voice when he speaks.

Somehow, Jiang Lai suddenly connected these two different kinds of things together.

Now, he was sitting on another rock, and he didn't look at Si Yufeng beside him.

His eyes have been observing the surrounding environment vigilantly, paying attention to any unexpected situations that may happen around him.

The river bed of the creek not far away was very shallow, and Jiang Lai thought that this creek might have appeared after the heavy rain, and there shouldn't be any dangerous creatures in it.

In the rainy season of the tropical rain forest, the heavy rain always comes, so there will always be thousands of streams like this, but they are very short-lived.But this issue should also become one of the issues that they need to pay special attention to.

When Jiang Xun and Si Yufeng ran in, they didn't bring anything with them.No appetite, no water source, in short, they didn't have time to take anything at that time.

If they can leave this tropical rain forest quickly, then these problems are all right; however, if they cannot leave here as soon as possible, or if they are always trapped in this mysterious sea of ​​clouds, food and water are their first priority. biggest problem.

Of course, there will also be natural and ecological problems like the rainstorms he just thought of, which also need to be constantly faced and solved one by one.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lai couldn't help but raise his head, narrowing his beautiful long and narrow eyes uncomfortably.Already deep in the rainforest, he still couldn't see the true appearance of the sun above his head.

And Si Yufeng beside him was also constantly thinking about ways to escape.

After he and Jiang Lai entered Yunhai Forest, he had always been heading east in his impression. Of course, this is unreliable outside the City of Survivors, because its direction may change at any time, just like a miracle. It is the same as the labyrinth in the door dunjia.

And Qimen Dunjia's gate of life is in the northeast, while the gate of death is in the southwest.They had been heading east before they entered, and the direction should not be wrong. It would be great if they could see the sun now. Going north should be the way to escape.

So, he suddenly opened his mouth and asked Jiang Li, "Jiang Li, can you climb to the top of the tree to see the sun? If we know the direction to the north, we should be able to get out of here."

When Jiang Lai heard Si Yufeng's question, he looked at him, his eyes moved slightly, as if he was thinking about how Si Yufeng came to the conclusion that his way of life was in the north.

But he finally shook his head and said, "No. I tried it before." When he was on the Sala tree just now, he had already tried whether he could reach the top of the tree.

But it's a pity that although these trees seem to have a certain height, Jiang Lai can't climb to the top no matter what.It should be a formation similar to "ghost hitting the wall".

In fact, Si Yufeng also guessed this result, and he wasn't too depressed when he got the negative answer from Jiang Xun.

Anyway, things have come to this point, how could it be worse.

And after they join the other three, maybe everyone can find a way to escape by brainstorming.

So there was another smile on his face, and what he said seemed to comfort Jiang Xun and himself, "'Man will conquer the sky', we were able to escape successfully in the mission before, and I believe that now we will be able to find the one from which There is a way to escape here!"

"Also, I don't think the situation should be worse than it is now."

Si Yufeng felt that he had almost rested, and his legs were not as painful as before, so he planned to leave here first, and continue walking with Jiang Xun, "Jiang Xun, let's go? I have almost rested..."

Just halfway through the conversation, Si Yufeng realized that there was something wrong with the way Jiang Xun looked at him.

To be more precise, Jiang Lai's eyes were not focused on him, but should be looking in the direction behind him.

So Si Yufeng also looked in the direction Jiang Lai was looking at——

In the clear creek with a shallow river bed, a black "monster" was slowly swimming over.

The "behemoth" seems to enjoy the surprised eyes from these two strange species. It wanders slowly in the warm stream, like a spotlight chasing the protagonist, ready to make its debut.

It suddenly became playful, and opened its mouth to the two monkey-like strange species standing on the shore, as if it was just yawning during a lunch break—the eighty teeth on the end were exposed to the air brightly Among them, it seems to be showing them his terrifying bite force of 120-150 kg.

Si Yufeng once again realized what Murphy's theorem is, and what it means to make a promise...

In the future, he will never set up flags indiscriminately again!

Si Yufeng didn't take his eyes off the black caiman crocodile that was gradually swimming towards them for a moment, and now he only dared to keep himself still, hoping that the crocodile would ignore the two of them.

But it is a pity that Si Yufeng's "lucky" physique always backfires.The black caiman crocodile was still heading towards them. Obviously, its target should be a novel species like the two monkeys.

"Jiang Li, what should we do now..."

This was also the first time that Si Yufeng asked for help from others.You know, he is always the one who is called for help.

But this time, he knew that in front of such an absolutely powerful force as the black caiman crocodile—especially the distance between that crocodile and them was still so close—he didn't think of any solution for a moment.

Jiang Lai was also surprised that he hadn't noticed the approach of this dangerous existence.

It may be because the waters here are too quiet, and the black caiman just likes to stay in the quiet waters, so it didn't give off any dangerous breath when it swam over.

After hearing Si Yufeng's plea for help, Jiang Lai also focused on the black caiman crocodile, watching its every move, and then stretched out his hand, slowly blocking Si Yufeng behind him, and then spoke to him in a low voice. Said: "You run first in a while..."

Inexplicably, Si Yufeng felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.

——Why does it feel like he just heard Jiang Lai say this not long ago?

At this time, the black caiman crocodile had crawled from the stream to the shore, but its bright yellow vertical pupils did not keep looking at the two novel creatures that looked like monkeys or baboons, because its ears were more sensitive.

Jiang Lai watched the black caiman's hard black armor getting closer to him, as if he could hear the sound of the thick tail sweeping the muddy ground behind it.At this time, the distance between them and it was less than five meters, and his face was also rarely frowning—this might be the only expression he would show.

Now it's a moment of tension, and the situation is extremely tense!

Jiang Xun didn't turn his head back, but whispered to Si Yufeng: "Now... let's go."

Si Yufeng kowtowed silently, planning to evacuate from this dangerous scene lightly.

But the second he raised his foot, the black caiman over there sensitively captured the movement in the air, and immediately attacked Jiang Lai and the others!

When this prehistoric creature rushed over, its speed was not as bulky as its body, and on the contrary, its short but powerful limbs slammed heavily on the ground, and the dirt lifted by its claws kept flying backwards go.

Like a small torpedo, or a miniature intercontinental missile, the black caiman burst out with overwhelming momentum!

Si Yufeng didn't dare to look back, so he could only run forward desperately, but his legs were still as if they had been filled with lead due to excessive tension, and it didn't take long for him to be out of breath from exhaustion.

Just as he ran out for about tens of meters, the sound of Jiang Lai fighting with the black caiman crocodile came from behind him, and the trees behind him seemed to have been rolled down a lot.

But Si Yufeng didn't have time to look at the situation behind, because he saw that an arrow suddenly shot straight at him from the front.

"Whoosh-"

Si Yufeng dodged sideways dangerously, and the arrow also stuck into an oil palm tree very close to him, and penetrated three points.

He immediately thought of the surviving member of the previous five-member team...

Unexpectedly, he and Jiang Lai were "how lucky" and how unlucky they were, to be able to reunite with that killer again in this mysterious tropical rainforest where they couldn't tell the direction at all.

There were hunting humans before, and there were crocodiles hunting after.

Si Yufeng thought——

The scene right now cannot be described as wonderful...
