Indiana Jones

Chapter 496 Re-entering Wonderland (07)

Soon five of those things appeared around them. They didn't even know what to call them. They floated like ghosts. Some of them had already picked up long branches and were about to beat them. In previous experiences, Apart from being afraid of fire, this thing can only be dispelled by violently beating. In fact, no one knows whether it was really dispelled, but it was indeed driven away. Maybe this thing caused too much shock to them before. , so they would rather work hard and block the approach of this thing than fight it directly.

The thing kept turning around them, as if it was looking for an opportunity, maybe because they were afraid of the torches in their hands, everyone stared at it as if they were facing a big enemy, but soon these things rushed up together, moving very fast. It came close almost in the blink of an eye.

The torch and the big branch were stretched out almost at the same time, but this time they were not driven away as smoothly as before. Although some people retreated in fear of the flames, the person who copied the big branch was not so lucky. One of them was white The thing unexpectedly jumped up from different directions in pieces during the beating, and it landed on the two people at once. It still wrapped the head completely, and quickly extended to other parts of the body, even though someone immediately went up and used it. The flame said that thing would be roasted away, but the two people were injured instantly, and the lightest frontal bone was corroded and exposed, and they fell to the ground and passed out without even having time to scream.

"Wash the wound with water..." Si Xuanyi said loudly to the others while waving the live target. This is what he just came up with. Since it is corrosive and poisonous, if it is washed with water, will it be removed or not? Take it easy?Although it may not be effective, it is worth a try. After all, they can't think of any other way besides this.

In this attack, only two of these things were scattered, and the rest of them wandered around, and the few who had just succeeded in the attack floated up again, and slowly joined together to form a large floating object.

The people kept waving torches to drive the thing further away, and at the same time, the people behind started to rescue people. After the two injured people washed their wounds with water, their injuries were indeed under control, and the corroded area did not continue to expand. The leaked bones did not continue to turn black, but they were still in a severe coma. This thing is really untouchable.

"Get some bigger torches..." Li Siming waved the torches that were about to go out, and shouted to the others, "Hurry up."

The torch that Zhao Chenggong waved fiercely chased after him and hit the largest white floating object. The object retreated quickly, but soon separated into several pieces and rushed towards him from different directions. The torch in his hand danced wildly to force those things back, but because of too much force, the torch in his hand suddenly went out, and the thing rushed up again. His reaction was really fast enough. When the torch went out, he fell to the ground and rolled backwards, avoiding the attack. He drove one that almost fell on him, but fortunately, Ye Feng rushed up quickly and waved the torch in his hand while driving the thing away while dragging him back.

"Are you fucking crazy? Go crazy and don't implicate others." Ye Feng cursed. It was too risky just now, and he almost fell for it himself.

"This ghost thing is too fucking bullying." Zhao Chenggong angrily got up from the ground, grabbed a torch and smashed it, scattering the cloud of white mist that rushed up, but fell because of unsteady feet. The dog ate shit, and plunged into the remains of the previous devil's bonfire, and the ashes were flying everywhere. He crawled out of it in disgrace, beat and cursed, and jumped on it again.

"Let's go, let's go, get out of here." Si Xuanyi waved the torch while driving away the crowd. Struggling in vain here is not the solution, if possible, it's better to escape as soon as possible.

Ye Feng took the time to make a large number of branches and tied them together to make a huge cleaning handle. He beat and whipped away the white fog that blocked their way. Others also used torches or large branches to drive away. But even though they were so busy, there were still two people who were hit. One was the wounded before. When he was lying unconscious on the ground, the others were busy chasing the thing and neglected to take care of it. It was melted in an instant, and it was too late to find out, and the white mist that had swallowed his flesh and blood was bigger and darker than before, and they could vaguely see clusters of red light doped in it, Not as illusory as before.

"His grandma's, this thing actually grows when it's full." Fang Yuanshan yelled over and over while stepping back.

"Torch, give me a torch..." Someone shouted loudly, but the words were cut off before the shout was finished, and the thing fell directly on him...

The scene was extremely chaotic, and the weapons everyone carried were useless at all. They could only rely on torches and vertical resistance. Unfortunately, this could not help that thing at all. At most, it would force it back, but it could not solve the substantive problem at all. question.

This is an unexpected battle. Their opponents seem to be intangible, but they are extremely threatening. They only have the power to parry, but they have no power to fight back. They can't solve that thing after trying their best. They could only simply drive them away from their side, they had no countermeasures in embarrassment and fear, and soon they lost four people.

Although they changed their tactics, one person in each group held a torch, and two people used big branches to shoot, but at most they could only scatter them, and those things would gather again soon, and it was not a good idea to do so. It works every time. If the cooperation is not close enough, the torch is easy to go out. It is really difficult to block that thing by just relying on the value of random shots. If you are not careful, you will be scattered and surrounded by that thing. It is very dangerous, but this is their The most effective method currently conceivable.

They could only fight while walking, but soon discovered the drawbacks of fighting on their own. Because they couldn't take care of each other, the distance between each group was getting bigger and bigger, which created more opportunities for those things. It was too late to gather the team, and in the end they could only run away. Fortunately, the first group of people who escaped got into the forest, and the rest of them also fled after a hard fight. All of a sudden, they were in chaos. They waited until Si Xuanyi was sure that they were safe I found that there were only Xiaolu, a native and a person from the previous team around me.

"I don't know where the others went." The person who spoke was Wang Qingshan, who was Liu Xiaotian's subordinate.

"Hmm..." Si Xuanyi knew that he was in big trouble now. The fewer people there were, the harder it was to survive in this kind of place. Now he didn't even distinguish between east, west, north and south, and he didn't know which way to go.

"Do you want to go back and find them?" Xiaolu asked softly.

Si Xuanyi shook his head. He knew that there would be no one to be found after he returned, and the others must have gone somewhere. It is very difficult to gather people in such a place.

Wang Qingshan shouted loudly, but no one responded. I don't know if the others dared not echo or were too far away to hear them.

Si Xuanyi looked around carefully, it was a completely unfamiliar forest and they had lost their way.

"We have deviated from the previous route, and now we don't know where we are. Let me go up and see to correct the direction." Wang Qingshan said, pointing to the crown above his head.

"Wait..." Si Xuanyi stopped him, and pointed to the top of his head, "First make sure if there is such a thing inside."

A few people looked up at the canopy above, how can this thing be confirmed?Who knows if you don't go up, but who can guarantee that you won't be attacked by that thing after you go up?Hearing what he said, Wang Qingshan's heart sank. He was too anxious to meet other people just now, and he didn't think about it at all. Now that he thinks about it, he is really a little scared.

Si Xuanyi lit another torch and handed it to him: "Take this and go, I'll be in front, and you follow me." Under such circumstances, he would never let his subordinates take risks alone.

Si Xuanyi first climbed up a section to catch the torch, and Wang Qingshan followed him to catch the torch after passing him for a section. The two went up alternately and quickly disappeared into the canopy of the tree, leaving only Xiaolu and his people waiting anxiously.

Xiaolu was really afraid that they wouldn't be able to get down, but she felt more at ease when she heard the thin friction sound in the tree canopy. His tribe also lit two torches and Xiaolu each held one and looked up. Head, wait for the news above.

It took more than ten minutes for Si Xuanyi and Wang Qingshan to come down from above.

"We went in the wrong direction..." Si Xuanyi dropped the burnt torch and stepped on it to prevent a fire, then pointed in one direction, "Go this way, we will reach the building complex in the middle first Wait for the others."

Before setting off, they made corresponding preparations and made enough torches from local materials. They found the direction with one torch and a big branch in the other and continued to move forward. slapping the branches in the tree, even if it doesn't hurt the thing, it can stop it from jumping on him.

The few people walked very carefully, and they didn't even dare to make a sound. They immediately stopped and stared at the movement around them if there was any disturbance, and then moved on after confirming their safety. The forest was eerily quiet, and they couldn't see anything but the grass Any living thing, the previously vibrant forest seemed to suddenly lose its vitality, as if only a few of them could still move, and everything else was dead.

During the march, they heard gunshots again, which should be very far away. They wondered if other people were in trouble, but it was only a few short shots and then disappeared.

The forest is too dense, and they have no way to ensure that they are heading in the right direction. They have to stop and go up to correct the direction. This is very dangerous, but other than that, they have no other way to go below. Make sure that they are walking in the right direction. Although they keep resting and adjusting their direction, they still take a lot of wrong roads. Every time they go up to correct their direction, they will find that they are not walking in a straight line, and the buildings in the middle keep happening The change of direction, this is not to say that the building group will move by itself, but that they went in the wrong direction unconsciously.

During this period, they saw the white ghost-like thing several times, and they all managed to avoid or push it back. The reason why they were so lucky was that they encountered only one or two, instead of a group like before They formed a group, but they felt that the thing was actually near them all the time, not sure if it was because they were nervous or it was true.

"The torch is burning too fast..." Si Xuanyi said while lighting a new torch, "This is not going to work, if we don't reach that place before dark, we will be finished, and we can't avoid it in this barren mountain That thing."

"It will take time to make torches, and the direction can't be guaranteed, and this place can't go fast..." Wang Qingshan gathered the few remaining torches together.

"Do some more work first, and then hurry up, don't do it while doing it, it's too late." Si Xuanyi handed his torch to Xiaolu, "You keep an eye on it for me, I'll do the work."

Except for Xiaolu, the men immediately made more torches. This kind of simple torches really couldn't burn for too long, so they tried to make as many as possible.

"There's a sound..." Si Xuanyi suddenly felt his hand tell everyone not to move. There was indeed something in the forest and it was not far away from them. They quickly hid behind the tree. The most troublesome thing at this time was the torch in their hands. This will reveal the location, and if you lose it, you may be attacked by that ghost-like thing.

Si Xuanyi waved his hand and told everyone to keep only one torch, and put out all the others, and then hid this torch behind a tree. The white ghost-like things that attacked them would not make any movement. There must be other things The child is active around here. In this kind of place, the biggest possibility is a wild beast, but it does not rule out that it is a little devil or other wandering people.

It didn't take long for the sound to stop not far from them. Because of the dense forest, they couldn't see what was there.

Si Xuanyi carefully picked up the gun and pointed it in that direction, and the surroundings became quiet for a while, as if something was wrong over there, and also stopped to listen to the movements around him.

Si Xuanyi waved at Wang Qingshan and pointed in one direction to tell him to outflank him, then he walked towards the other side with his gun in hand. He planned to outflank and attack. No matter what it was, he had to figure it out. Forget it, if the enemy kills it directly, it would be even better if it was one of our own.

He moved very lightly, trying not to let himself make a sound, but in the forest, this is unavoidable, the sound of clothes rubbing against branches and shoes wading through grass can only be reduced but cannot be eliminated. The sound stopped not too far away, and I carefully looked over there, and found something squatting behind a tree, which looked strange, like a black charcoal lying on the trunk... …
