In the early morning, the sun was gradually rising, but at this moment, three people were looking up at the crown of the tree through the gaps in the tall leaves.
It was a surprise that the expedition team finally chose to stay.
Because besides Zhang Shuping and "dog licking" Xu Hui among the three, Li Dong, who had always seemed a little cautious, also chose to stay.
Except for these people, everyone else left.
Zhang Shuping and Xu Hui have known each other for five or six years, and they have a good friendship. What's more, Zhang Shuping's family is rich and generous, so Xu Hui respects them.
This is what the so-called cannibalism is about.
As for Li Dong, Li Dong originally wanted to leave, but Li Dongqiong!
My family is not rich and I haven't made any careers. I don't have a job for more than a year at a time. I'm already in my 30s and I don't even have the money to get married.
And this is the reason why he chose to stay and give it a try even though he was afraid.
When the three of them entered the ginkgo-dominated forest corridor, they even felt as if they had entered a fairyland.
The ginkgo is tall, the leaves sway slightly with the breeze, and the ginkgo blossoms on the canopy are also giving birth to a tangy aroma for this forest corridor.
Walking on the wide avenue under the forest corridor, the three of them unconsciously felt refreshed.
"It's really a fairyland! Look at the tall grass growing under the ginkgo trees. This kind of artificial layout is really a rare spectacle."
Zhang Shuping sighed, but at the same time he was not suspicious.
Because if this place is really man-made, it is impossible for the ground to be so bumpy and uneven.
However, the patchwork of ginkgo trees on both sides of the forest corridor and the tall grass taller than the head are indeed somewhat man-made.
However, when Zhang Shuping was sighing, Li Dong remained cautious, and said thoughtfully:
"Brother Zhang, when you said that it seemed artificial, I thought of another possibility for the existence of this forest corridor."
"Oh? Tell me?"
Zhang Shuping was very interested, and Zhang Hui beside him also showed interest.
"I think this may be a testing ground, a type of biological experiment, and the reason why there are so many soldiers patrolling the outermost part of the forest may be to cover this place."
"However, the only thing I'm not sure about is that if this is a test base for the military, why is there no martial law here?"
"But if it's not human-made, it's complicated."
Speaking of this, Li Dong even frowned, showing some hesitation.
"Such a large expanse of unbelievably tall trees suddenly appeared here. Given the level of martial law imposed by the soldiers on the outskirts of the forest, would they ignore the interior of the forest? Anyway, there will definitely be regular high-altitude reconnaissance."
"If I follow this line of reasoning, I can draw two conclusions."
"One, this forest appeared too suddenly, just in the window period of the official regular investigation."
"Second, this forest cannot be destroyed. Even if the destruction will happen again soon, this cannot explain why the government does not garrison troops for research. Therefore, the real conclusion of this second inference is: this forest cannot be resisted by the government. horror."
"This horror may be the forest itself, but at the same time it may be an unimaginably powerful creature in this forest, but this creature will not come out of here for unknown reasons, so the military chose to live in the forest. Lockdown strategy at a safe distance."
When Li Dong deduced this second conclusion, he was frightened by his own conclusion.
Not only him, even Zhang Shuping and Xu Hui who listened to his reasoning conclusions were frightened.
"How is it possible! Is there anything in this world that humans cannot deal with? We have nuclear weapons! Impossible, impossible!"
"Li Dong, you have read too many horror stories. How could there be such an exaggerated creature in this world." Xu Hui's voice trembled unconsciously due to panic.
Zhang Shuping didn't believe the second conclusion either, but he might as well suppress his fear and echo Xu Hui's words.
"What Xu Hui said is exactly what I want to say. I'm still inclined to the first conclusion you draw, Li Dong. The second conclusion is too unreliable."
"What indestructible forest, horrible creature, I think you have watched too many movies and novels."
This time was the first time Li Dong did not refute.
It's not that he can't, it's that he doesn't want to.
After all, Ziyue appeared three years ago, so it is not impossible for something terrifying and unimaginable to happen.
As for why Li Dong didn't want to refute.
That is entirely because they are already in this forest at the moment, if his second conclusion is true, then the three of them...
So at this moment, Li Dong didn't want or want to believe his second conclusion.
Sometimes people are such creatures who like to deceive themselves and others, aren't they?
Li Dong was silent.
Zhang Shuping and Xu Hui were also silent.
for a long time.
In the end, it was Zhang Shuping who pinched his arm fiercely and then overcame his fear.
"Go to the fuck, don't care, even if Li Dong's second conclusion is right, what can we do if we come here? It's impossible to just run back like this? Then don't let those who are waiting to see our jokes How many of you are happy?"
"It's still the same sentence, let's starve to death for the timid and support the brave. Let's continue walking along this forest. I don't believe it. On such a bright day, the plot of horror stories can really happen."
"Even if there is a horror plot, to experience such a miraculous thing in person is not considered a trip in this world!"
"I'm not afraid, what are you two barefoot afraid of?"
This time, Zhang Shuping's words were not answered, and even Xu Hui did not make a sound.
He just nodded with some doubts, and Li Dong finally nodded with a sigh.
There is no way, since I have already come, there must be something to gain, otherwise the risk will be in vain.
Just like the insinuation in Zhang Shuping's words, is it useful to worry about those scary conclusions? If this forest is harmful, and if the fragrance of flowers smelled by me and others is poison, is there any way for them who have been poisoned to turn back?
Rather than worrying about those horrible thoughts, it is better to rush to the end one by one. Whether it is a blessing or a curse depends entirely on God's will.
If you are lucky, the bicycle becomes a motorcycle, but if you are unlucky? There's nothing to say about that, it's all life.
At this point, the three of them decided to move forward again, but this time the courage that the three of them had summoned was mostly repulsed.
Fearful and worried, the three of them had their own thoughts, but they were still moving forward slowly.
However, this kind of forward movement finally ended when a huge head suddenly and silently appeared at a turning five kilometers ahead of the forest corridor.
