The story of the interstellar animal husband chasing his wife

Chapter 495 Strange Traces
"It's so itchy, what kind of bug is that?"

At night, the canopy of the tree is like black wings covering the moon, only the faint cold light transmitted by the night sky enters the forest, and the dirt road can barely be seen.

In the evening, practice sentry and patrol the jungle in groups of two.

Zhou Wenwen was in a group with Ye Ming, the former always muttering that the wound on his calf was itchy. "Ye Ming, don't you itch? My skin doesn't get rid of scars easily, and these small wounds will definitely leave scars. Oh, it's so annoying, my body is wet!"

The two used their feet to push through the weeds and carefully inspected every dark corner.Ye Ming glanced at the wild flowers and weeds calmly, "If you don't want to itch, you won't itch, you have to learn to be patient."

Zhou Wenwen kicked the flowers and plants discouragedly. "What's so good about grass? Let's go somewhere else."

Ye Ming got up and went somewhere else with her, when she suddenly asked curiously: "Wenwen, why did you join the special forces? If you stay in the communication camp, you won't have to suffer like this."

"That's because you don't know how big the communications battalion is and how many soldiers there are. Not everyone can perform missions. Most of them perform boring exercises such as dismantling circuits and assembling circuits every day. I only touched the mission once a year when I went there. I thought it was a waste of time. Later, my boss asked who would like to join the special forces, but no one would, so he called my name all of a sudden.”

She lightly kicked the pebbles on the ground, depressed. "Maybe ask me to make up the number."

Ye Ming thought about it. "They won't randomly find someone to make up the numbers. They must be interested in you because you have special skills, and you will have the opportunity to use them in the future."

"Hehe, the premise is that I didn't die from the drill! Huh, shit casualty index, he clearly wants to intensify the drill!"

Ye Ming was hesitating to speak, but he inadvertently found a certain grass by the roadside was a little strange.She signaled Zhou Wenwen to keep quiet and watch the wind, while she approached the grass with a gun.

With light and slow steps, she squatted down staring at the bent weeds.With the faint light of the night sky, she saw a pinch of weeds folded, as if someone had walked by.

Then she checked the surrounding mud, and found no footprints, but saw a few more twists in the grass.She stared in thought, measuring the indentation with her hands.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Wenwen turned around and asked quietly.

A sharp and cold glow emanated from the green pupils, like silver light covering them, cold and gloomy.She opened her lips and whispered, "Someone has been to this area, and there are footprints in the grass."

She measured the indentation to be a little bigger than her shoe.

Zhou Wenwen reached into the training hat and scratched his head, "Could it be that they came to patrol?"

"Look at the ground, there are footprints of the two of us. If they walked into the grass, it is impossible not to leave footprints in the mud, which proves that this person did not walk out of the grass."

"represents what?"

Ye Ming stood up and stepped on the unbroken weeds, and the weeds slowly returned to their original shape as soon as they loosened their feet.

"It means that someone has been standing here for a long time, and he is definitely not our team member. The reason for this person standing or squatting for a long time is probably due to investigation, and there are other people on the mountain." She used the old-fashioned walkie-talkie designated by Li to inform the groups: "The key point is to observe whether there are any plants. Grinding marks, footprints on the ground, I suspect that we are not the only ones in the mountains. Please reply if you receive it.”

Answers came one after another.

"Could it be that the perverted instructor stood there?"

"Not sure, just in case we keep an eye out for traces."

After two hours, the groups were pooled.Ye Ming paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, listening to their report.Most of the team members did not find any scratches, and everything seemed to be normal.

"Captain, what did you find?"

Ye Ming explained in detail what he found in the grass. "We encountered a surprise attack on the way here, and it is not ruled out that there are still ambushes in the mountains. Every two hours, we change teams to watch the wind, and the rest of the team members replenish their energy on the spot."

Heihu and Dapeng were in the first group, and they went to watch the wind not far away.

Ye Ming only ate a piece of compressed biscuit and drank a sip of water, deliberately chewing slowly.She has divided the three days' food into five days, eating small amounts each time.

Seeing her take out a few stubby white things that were stained with mud, Zhou Wenwen was very surprised and asked what they were.

"That's the root of the clover. It's edible. We relied on it to pass the test. Hehe, I picked a few too." Qianliyan smiled wickedly.

He happily took it out and put it in his mouth, no longer rejecting the earthy smell.

Zhou Wenwen grinned in disgust, "How can you eat uncooked plants, it will cause diarrhea, I would rather eat compressed biscuits." After speaking, she took a big bite of compressed biscuits.

"Eating plant roots is not bad. You have never seen a vole being eaten raw. Eat it raw. Use a knife to cut open the abdomen of the vole, and eat it with your hands!" Dapeng's words made Zhou Wenwen and Fengyang feel sick to their stomachs. "Master, give me a taste."

Ye Ming handed him one.

Dapeng frowned and put it in his mouth, "It's okay, but the earthy smell is a bit stronger, at least it can replenish some water."

"Next time when you are patrolling, pay attention to the plants on the side of the road, pick some edible ones, and try to eat less animals, because the smell of blood will attract the enemy." Ye Mingyun gently wiped off the mud on his mouth, and introduced several edible Edible plant characteristics. "The physique of the orcs will increase with the level of cultivation, and they will not easily have diarrhea, so eat with confidence."

The well-behaved Feng Yang wrote it down in his notebook.

Xia Qin nodded in agreement, "Plants can be carried with you and eaten at any time, which is more convenient than eating raw animals. I picked some mint leaves and put them in my mouth to refresh myself."

She gave some to the crowd.

Zhou Wenwen lost his appetite even more, so he changed the subject. "Where do we rest at night? Didn't bring a tent to sleep on the ground?"

Ye Ming pointed upwards. "On the tree."

Late at night, all the people on the tree leaned their backs on the trunk, tied their thighs and branches with climbing ropes, and finally closed their eyes with their arms around their chests.Yeming and Clairvoyance go to watch not far away, one can see at night, and the other can see thousands of miles away.

There was no one around, and Clairvoyance suddenly hesitated.

"Speak up if you have something to say." Without squinting, she kicked away the weeds to check.

"Uh...cough, Ming, do you think the unit will be disbanded? This morning Instructor Yun said that we will be disbanded if we don't perform well. Is it true? He doesn't seem to be joking."

She understands Clairvoyance's worries. As a fresh graduate, once the army is disbanded, she will definitely think that she is holding back. "The superiors will not joke about disbanding, we just don't let this happen. Let the superiors see our value, and the troops will not disband."

Qian Liyan scratched his face, "They are all soldiers with high qualifications. They are superior in every aspect, and they are more valuable. Sometimes I wonder if the higher-ups will regret recruiting fresh graduates."

"They used to be inexperienced recruits, but we are also experienced after a lot of hard work. Don't think too much, train carefully, and keep every skill in mind."

"Well! I made an agreement with Zhaoyang to make my own way, and we can't lose to her!" Clairvoyant smiled brightly. "Ming, are you still accepting apprentices? I want to be Dapeng's senior brother."

She smiled helplessly.

After two hours, the group switched to watch, and Ye Ming told the next group to be careful.
