"Bah! It stinks!" The bald head opened a bamboo tube hanging on his body, and poured out a foul-smelling oily yèti from it. While cursing, he wiped it on his face, hands and exposed neck, etc. It can be said that as long as it is "exposed" to the outside of the skin, it must be applied once.

"Hey, bald head, if you don't want to wipe it off, then just give me your can, I'm not worried enough!" The short man who likes to find bald heads the most laughed.They just passed through the coconut grove by the sea, and now they are about to enter the most dangerous tropical jungle, and everyone is making final preparations.

"Go, go, go, you think I'm stupid, the things in this jar are worth two pennies!" The bald man shouted at the short man angrily.Don't look at this bald man with a rough appearance, but he is a lover of money like his life. He likes to use money to measure everything he does.When you first got to know him, you might look down on him, but after you get to know him well, you will find that although the bald head is greedy for money, he is a passionate man, and he is very principled. He will get his money even if he dies, but if If it wasn't his money, even if ten thousand taels of gold were piled up in front of him, he wouldn't take a penny.

"Bald, then I'll give you two pennies, how about you sell me your jar of 'medicinal' oil?" As soon as the bald finished speaking, the middle-aged man next to him, Brother Lin, also laughed.

"Damn, Brother Lin, you are too dishonest. We all know what this 'medicinal' oil is used for. If you want to buy it now, don't even think about it unless you take out a hundred sticks!" Shrewd, the bald head is no exception, and immediately sat down and said.Capital Datang 502

At this time, Feng Shijie had already applied the medicated oil on his body, and when he heard the bald head, he smiled and said, "Bald head, your life is not worth only a hundred pennies, right? If there is no such can of medicated oil in the jungle I bet, even if you can come out of the woods alive, you will end up with a whole body of diseases, and the cost of curing these diseases alone must be more than a hundred coins, so if you really sell it, you will definitely lose money Unprofitable business!"

"Hey, Brother Feng is still thoughtful." The bald man touched his head and smiled when he heard it.

In fact, Feng Shijie also knew that the bald head and Brother Lin were just joking. The can of "medicinal" oil was used to repel mosquitoes. Even though it was just one can, it was marked at different prices, and it might not be available for purchase.It was only because of his relationship that he got so many cans.

The reason why this kind of mosquito-repelling oil is so scarce is that the effect of this thing is really good. Just one smear can not only repel mosquitoes, but even some poisonous insects will not bite.Secondly, the mosquitoes in the tropical jungle are too dangerous. Malaria is transmitted through mosquitoes. Although they carry the stinky Artemisia pills to treat malaria, the main focus of malaria is prevention. After all, malaria can be cured even if it is a disease.But it takes at least ten days to get out of bed.

In addition, mosquito bites may also infect other diseases, so as long as businessmen who stay in Luzon and Southeast Asia need this kind of mosquito repellent oil, although the taste of this oil is not good.However, the supply has been in short supply all year round. As for the owner behind this "medicinal" oil, it is a medical school in Taiwan.

In fact, this "medicinal" oil was invented by Cui Mengxue, Li Min's concubine.It's just that the medical school has just settled in Taiwan, and there are many things to do in various aspects.And this kind of medicinal oil is produced by a pharmaceutical factory affiliated to the medical school, but it's a pity that it was established for a limited time.The scale of the factory is limited, and the output of production is not much, so the current situation of short supply is formed.

Feng Shijie and the others were talking, but their movements were not slow. After applying the mosquito repellent oil on their bodies, they took out a bamboo hat and put it on. This kind of hat is also specially used in tropical jungles. In the equipment, there is a relatively large brim under the semicircular hat, and a pair of glass eyes are hung on the front. This kind of eyes is somewhat similar to the diving goggles of later generations, and can protect the eyes and the surrounding areas.

The reason why you have to wear such a pair of glasses that seem to be in the way is that in the jungle, there are many actions that spray venom, such as poisonous snakes, tree frogs, etc., and these poisons like to spray the enemy's eyes most Spraying the venom, there was a slave hunting team before, because they didn't know this, they rushed into the tropical jungle rashly, as a result, more than a dozen people in the entire team were sprayed with venom, and the eyeballs were all Burnt out, and glasses have been a must-have for jungle exploration ever since.

After everything was ready, Feng Shijie led everyone into the jungle. They had planned their route before, and now they were going to pass through the tropical jungle in front of them, and then reach the mountain peak on the other side of the jungle. , Only at the top of the mountain can Kanu be able to distinguish the terrain of this area, and even if he is lucky, he may find one or two familiar peaks. At that time, with these peaks as signs, the next thing will be much easier .

Tropical jungles are full of dangers, even natives like Kanu may die if they are not careful, so Feng Shijie and the others are even more careful with 1, and he will be able to buy all kinds of jungle equipment before. I bought all of them, such as their clothes, hats, etc., all of which are special equipment for tropical jungles.

The jungle in this area is inaccessible, and even the natives seldom come, so there is no road in the jungle at all. Feng Shijie and the others had to divide into several teams and take turns using hatchets to open the way. It is also worth mentioning that the trees in the tropical jungle are tall and tall. , the branches and leaves are also very prosperous, blocking the sunlight in the sky, at most, only a few rays of sunlight can pass through the gaps in the branches and leaves, which also makes the jungle very dark, and even the direction cannot be identified. If you are not careful, you may get lost.

Fortunately, Feng Shijie and the others brought navigation tools such as compass and sextant, and Feng Shijie was a surveyor, so it was very simple to determine the direction. This also made them not have to worry about getting lost, and the tropical jungle was greatly reduced in danger.

But even so, Feng Shijie and the others were extremely thrilling along the way. For example, after only two hours in the jungle, a person in the team was bitten by a poisonous snake. "Medicine", although not very symptomatic, but at least his life was saved, but he needed to recuperate for two days, so Feng Shijie simply took turns carrying him forward.

In addition, they also encountered other dangers, such as the bald head accidentally getting stuck in a muddy quagmire, if the short man and Lingo didn't hold him back, it is estimated that his life would have to be confessed here.They managed to find a place to camp at night, but they were attacked by a crocodile crawling out of the nearby river and bit another brother's arm. As a result, at the end of the day, there were two more wounded in the team.

Fortunately, the area where Feng Shijie and the others landed belongs to the mountainous area. As long as they pass through the tropical jungle at the foot of the mountain, the next step will be easy. This is because with the increase in altitude, the temperature on the mountainside drops significantly, which also slows down the growth of plants. There are many, and it is much easier to walk in the jungle than at the foot of the mountain.

In the dark jungle, the tall bald heads opened the way ahead, waving the hatchets in their hands constantly, cutting off all the branches, vines and the like that blocked the road. Fortunately, the hatchets they brought were used well. Made of high-quality steel, otherwise it would have been chopped off.Behind the bald head were Feng Shijie and others.

It was already the third day they had entered the jungle. The tropical jungle at the foot of the mountain was not too wide. Now that they had reached the mountainside, it was estimated that they would be able to reach the top of the mountain in half a day at most.In fact, this mountain is not very high. Without these annoying vegetation, they can climb to the top of the mountain in half a day at most, but they spent three days on this journey, and they also injured two brothers. It's not too heavy, and I'm in the middle of the team now, with other people supporting me on the way. It is estimated that after two days, I will recover almost.

"Boss, do you think that Pine Tree Tribe can find a gold mine?" The bald man asked Feng Shijie who was behind him while he had nothing to say while leading the way.

Feng Shijie also knew that after three days of hard work, all the brothers were somewhat demoralized, so after hearing what the bald head said, he immediately chuckled and said, "Didn't Kanu already say that? Men and women in the Pine Tree Tribe like to wear gold ornaments." , and this tribe is not a very powerful tribe, and does not interact with other tribes very much. From this, it can be inferred that they must have a place where gold is produced, and it is not far from their tribe's residence, so as long as we can find Where they live, they will definitely find gold!" Capital Datang 502

Hearing Feng Shijie's affirmative answer, everyone, including the bald head, was shocked. Although they were Feng Shijie's subordinates, they were already like brothers, and before departure, Feng Shijie had promised everyone that if they could If gold is found, everyone can get [-]% of the shares, which is already a lot of money for them, and if it is a mine with huge reserves, then they will get rich overnight.

Thinking of the huge "temptation" of money, everyone felt lighter, as if their fatigue had disappeared, and the speed of their journey had also accelerated a lot.And after they passed through the jungle on the mountainside, the road ahead immediately became easier to walk. At least the trees in the forest were not so crowded, and there were fewer mosquitoes. The sunshine makes everyone feel much more comfortable.

When the sun was setting from the west, Feng Shijie and his team finally arrived at the top of the mountain. Compared with the foot of the mountain, the top of the mountain was undoubtedly much cooler. In the last ray of sunshine, Kanu also brought an inspiring good news to this expedition team.
