Indiana Jones

Chapter 497 Re-entering Wonderland (08)

Si Xuanyi was also startled by that thing at first, thinking that he had encountered some monster again, but soon he discovered that he was actually a person, but his whole body was painted in pitch black. This person was squatting behind a tree with a gun in his hand. Looking around carefully, because of the pitch black paint all over his body, Si Xuanyi couldn't tell whether he was the enemy or his own for a while. After all, many of them used the [-] big cap in this operation, so just from It is impossible to make accurate identification on the weapon.

Si Xuanyi shrank back and pointed his gun at that person. Before confirming the identity of the other person, he did not intend to expose himself. At the same time, he was also prepared to shoot at any time, but at this moment, he found that Another dark thing appeared behind another tree not far from that person. There were other people. He immediately realized that the situation was not that simple, so he continued to observe patiently. Sure enough, he soon found out He found that there were at least seven or eight other people with the same black paint on their bodies in the woods behind that person. After careful identification, he could finally confirm that these people were little devils. Already quite a few.

Things are a little bad, Wang Qingshan didn't know that there were so many ghosts here, if he accidentally got hit by the little devil's gauntlet, it would be troublesome, no, I have to inform him, thinking of this, Si Xuanyi wanted to leave, but at this moment, suddenly There was a gunshot, and it happened so fast that Si Xuanyi didn't have time to react. He didn't expect Wang Qingshan to move so fast, but it's meaningless to say these things now, I hope Wang Qingshan wasn't so stupid as to jump out directly.

As the gunshots sounded, the tranquility in the woods was instantly broken, and the devils suddenly became commotion, as if they had been stabbed in a hornet's nest, and all rushed towards the direction of the gunshots. It's a disaster, but I'm afraid it's too late to go.

In fact, Si Xuanyi was even more anxious. Wang Qingshan and Xiaolu were waiting there. Once the little devil found out, how could this girl still be alive?
Si Xuanyi hurried back, praying in his heart that Xiaolu and the others had moved after hearing the gunshots, and wouldn't be so stupid as to continue waiting.

Before Si Xuanyi hurried back halfway, he heard a burst of gunfire from that direction, which made his heart sink suddenly. Did something happen to Wang Qingshan or Xiaolu?Thinking of this, he couldn't help speeding up his pace, but soon he saw Wang Qingshan trotting over from the forest.

"Where are the others?" Si Xuanyi asked, he was somewhat relieved, it seemed that this kid had gotten rid of his bones.

"I didn't see it, it might have been transferred." Wang Qingshan said gruffly.

"Why shoot indiscriminately?" Si Xuanyi asked in a low voice, "Don't rush back to find someone."

"It wasn't me... I didn't shoot." Wang Qingshan said, "I thought I was discovered, was it a devil?" It turned out that he was relatively far away from there just now, and he was not as clear as Si Xuanyi saw. , but the gunshot was indeed very clear, and the sudden gunshot scared him back quickly. In fact, things were not as bad as Si Xuanyi expected. Wang Qingshan was not discovered by the little devil. Who fired that shot just now? ?Could it be that there are others here?Then the question arises again, are these people enemies or friends?
The two quickly went back to meet Xiaolu, but soon they found that the little ghost had occupied the place where they stayed before, that is to say, if Xiaolu and the others hadn't run away, they should be within the range of the devil's control, which would be troublesome up.

In order to find out whether Xiaolu and the others were already surrounded, Si Xuanyi approached cautiously, but judging from the performance of those little devils, there seemed to be nothing unusual. These guys were searching, and they seemed to have found nothing valuable. Ran?
Seeing that there was nothing of value to be found, Si Xuanyi carefully retreated. It is still uncertain whether Xiaolu has been captured. He alone will not solve any problems. Even if it is confirmed, he will not be able to save anyone. Said that Xiaolu is probably still hiding somewhere there, and now he and Wang Qingshan don't have the strength to fight these little devils, if they want to help Xiaolu and the others, the only thing they can do is to distract these little devils, but once Successfully attracting the little devil's attention, their situation will become very dangerous, not to mention that there may be another group of people hidden here, that is, could the person who shot just now be one of his own?If that is the case, everyone will be happy, if not...then maybe something will happen.

Si Xuanyi didn't get too entangled in this issue, but immediately made a decision to lure the little devil over first, saving people is the most important thing, we can't let that girl Xiaolu fall into the hands of the little devil, right?After all, she is still a child.

So Si Xuanyi took a risk and fired a shot. Those little devils were indeed attracted, and immediately turned their attention to this side. After confirming that there was no ambush, they began to search this way, but Wang Qingshan took the opportunity to bypass the little devils. Go find Xiaolu later.

After tossing so far, the ultimate enemy is the little devil, and compared to the troublesome little devils encountered in this forest, the little devil is the main threat.

Si Xuanyi fired from time to time to attract the attention of the enemy. He also had no choice but to run around in this ghostly place alone. After all, they had limited manpower, so he and Wang Qingshan had to separate activities to play a greater role, but doing so was very difficult. I don't mention whether I will be chased and killed by these little devils. The things in this forest alone are enough for him to deal with. Now he has no torch in his hand and just holds a gun. Once he encounters that white monster He basically has no power to fight back with ghost-like things.

The little devil started to approach him, but he didn't catch up directly. Instead, he followed his gunshots and slowly moved forward. He was not in a hurry, maybe because he was afraid of being led into an ambush by him, but Si Xuanyi It doesn't matter whether these little devils are far or close, as long as the little devils leave that area, they are successful, and the speed doesn't matter at all.

After drilling in the woods for a while, Si Xuanyi stopped robbing when he saw that his goal had been achieved, and started to go back, preparing to go back and join Wang Qingshan and the others. In fact, he didn't go very far in this dense forest, but the forest was too dense Yes, it takes a lot of energy to walk, and it just takes a long time. It is much easier to get rid of the enemy in this kind of place than outside. It didn’t take long for him to go back in circles, but in this kind of place It was not easy to find Wang Qingshan, they could only go back to the approximate range, it was difficult to judge exactly where Wang Qingshan and the others were, the forest was too dense to see people a few meters away, and it was impossible for him to shout loudly, However, he and Wang Qingshan had made an agreement before, that is, to climb to the top of the tree. It is much easier to see each other from the canopy than the bottom, not to mention that the top is easier to walk than the bottom, but the possibility of exposure is greater and more dangerous. , but now you can only take a little risk if you want to find each other to join together.

After arriving at the approximate location, Si Xuanyi confirmed that there was no danger around him, then found a tree and carefully climbed up.

If you want to see farther from the canopy, you must choose a taller tree. Of course he understands this, but he also knows very well after his previous experience. The tree is tall, so you can only find it when you get to the top.

There is enough light on the canopy, and he can clearly see the distance. The first thing he saw was the man-made ruins hidden under the light and shadow of the mountain forest. It didn't look very real, and it wasn't too far from where he was now. .

He didn't see Wang Qingshan within his visual range, and he didn't know if that guy didn't come up or was farther away.

Si Xuanyi found a taller tree and climbed up. The trees here are uneven and the drop is very large. The situation is much more complicated than when they were walking on it before. He climbed on the high place and raised his eyes to look around. What can be seen is the boundless forest and the mountains in the distance, the endless green, the blue sky and the sun that is about to fall to the west. Everything is so peaceful and peaceful, but under the seemingly peaceful surface, there is There are countless murderous intentions hidden, and there are many dangers in the forest. When he turned to look for Wang Qingshan, he saw some white mist floating in some sunny places. He was so scared that he almost jumped out of the tree. Falling down, it was the thing that attacked them before. That thing was hiding on the top of the tree canopy. Why didn't they see it when they came up?Maybe it was because I didn't know the danger of that thing and didn't pay attention at that time.

The closest thing is only more than ten meters away, which can be described as close at hand.

Si Xuanyi had the courage to take a closer look at the thing. The difference from the one below was that it was all attached to the leaves. It looked like it was covered with a layer of white tulle. It was really hard to distinguish it from the leaves without looking carefully. The reflected sunlight was separated, he didn't want to touch this thing, and immediately changed a tree carefully?But he still couldn't see Wang Qingshan. Even if he couldn't find anyone, he should come up and meet him. Could it be that he lost his way and ran further away, or... something happened?
Si Xuanyi thought for a while, then turned his head to look at the artificial ruins hidden in the forest, and then suddenly realized what was going on. It turned out that he had strayed away from the previous area in the forest.

Now that he has figured out what's going on, there's no need to stay here any longer. He looked at the white thing seriously, and finally decided to take the risk of walking from above. Going back to the bottom will inevitably lead to the wrong direction. When encountering devils and this thing, instead of tossing back and forth, it is better to risk touching it, but if Ye Feng is not around, will he fall off?

Si Xuanyi began to push forward on the canopy of the tree, using the intertwined branches and the climbing vines to get up. Although it was not easy, it was not as difficult as expected. The place is more complicated, and some places need to be swung by the cane like a monkey. During this process, he saw the white thing very close several times, and he carefully avoided it, but it seemed that the thing was not as dangerous as it was below. , seemed to turn a blind eye to him, lying motionless on the branches and leaves.

It is very easy to correct the direction on the top, so after about 20 minutes, it will return to the original side, but it is only an approximate range. After all, you can only grasp the direction on the top, and the canopy is basically not too different, so It was not easy to really go back to the original place. He could only find a taller tree and climb up to observe to see if he could see Wang Qingshan, but there was still no movement here.

According to the time calculation, Wang Qingshan should have come up a long time ago, and something must have happened if he didn't show up now.

Si Xuanyi carefully looked at the area, hoping to find a tree crown that looked even a little familiar, and then went down to look for it again, but the tree crowns here basically looked similar, so he could only make a rough estimate based on the distance from the ruins. However, when he was about to go down the tree, he found a canopy not far away shaking a few times. He immediately stopped and hid himself, looking in that direction carefully. After a while, the canopy moved again. After a while, a person appeared from inside, Si Xuanyi almost recognized it as Xiaolu at a glance, and this girl actually climbed a tree.

Si Xuanyi immediately poked his head out and waved. In order to prevent possible enemies nearby from noticing that he didn't dare to shout, it took Xiaolu a long time to notice his side, and she quickly waved in response. Si Xuanyi immediately moved in that direction, and soon he and Xiaolu meets.

"Where are the others?" Si Xuanyi asked.

"They're all separated..." Xiaolu shook her head, "I'm the only one left here, so I'll climb up to see if I can make sure of the direction. I'll wait for you at the resting place of the ancestors first."

It turned out that after Xiaolu heard the gunshot again, she and her clansmen began to retreat. They knew that they could not be found until they confirmed the identity of the person coming, but they bumped into the white thing not far away. Running away, Xiaolu couldn't keep up, and finally she was alone, so she could only wait helplessly at the same place, and no one came back after waiting for a long time, then she realized that it was impossible for others to come back to look for him, even if she looked for him, she might not be able to find him. After all, the forest here is too dense and the environment is complicated. Finding someone is more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack, so she tried to find a way to walk forward in one direction, but soon found that she was not sure where she was going. While walking, she immediately decided to climb a tree to see the situation, and then walked towards the ruins. She knew very well that Si Xuanyi and the others would definitely meet there. This might be her only way of life. It can be said with certainty that she was Fortunately, they made the right decision and met Si Xuanyi who came back to look for them.

"It turns out that Wang Qingshanping didn't find you..." Si Xuanyi finally understood what was going on.

"Then..." Xiaolu suddenly saw something like a cloud of white mist floating up from the canopy not far away...
