She hesitated a little inside, what to do if this thing capsized in the middle of the river?

But there nothing she could do about it. The man was already frowning with some impatience.

Mu Qing could only use the large tree at the foot of the river, which had protruding roots, as a support to carefully get on the log boat. She sat in the middle of the pile of animal carcasses with a strong smell, facing the man.

The man untied the rope that secured the wooden boat, took out two paddles, tapped on the shore, and then the boat was propelled along the stream.

Chapter 11

(3.4)

It was already afternoon, they had lost the shade of the forest, and the burning sun was still high up in the sky. The heat was scorching. It was completely different from the stifling heat inside the forest.

Mu Qing felt that she was being baked, as oil was coming out of her pores.

With her movement just now, the boat violently swayed, a puddle of water even got in, wetting her clothes.

She was a little nervous and no longer dared to move, the giant mosquitoes then took advantage of the momentum to charge at her, her forehead felt like it was pricked by a needle a few times, and it felt immediately painful and itchy without comparison.

Her thigh was smashed by something, she saw that it was the coconut fruit she had drunk many times. When she raised her eyes to the opposite side, she saw the man doing a smearing movement on his body.

Mu Qing hurriedly picked it up.

The fruit shell had already been broken by him, Mu Qing just slightly separated it into two halves, and probed her hand inside to knead the water out of the wet flesh, she then carelessly wiped her exposed skin with it, her face and neck, as well as her hand.

Sure enough, it worked. The giant mosquitoes no longer attacked her head and face.

But she very quickly found out that it was still far from good, the material of her thin shirt simply could not protect her from the giant mosquitoes sharp and long mouth parts, and she even felt the feeling of being pricked by a needle on her thighs that were covered by jeans.

Mu Qing carefully turned around, unbuttoned her shirt, and probed her hand inside to wipe all the skin of her upper body she could reach. As for her lower body, she could only cross her legs and use her hands to repel them.

She didn’t turn back again to face the man.
