Looking at Lin Zichen's plain face, Elise was cold in her heart. Although she knew that the former would not harm her, Lin Zichen's expression when observing the corpse was really scary.
In Alice's eyes, a corpse was the most terrible thing she had ever encountered, but in Lin Zichen's eyes, it was like grass on the roadside. That indifference made Lin Zichen, who was used to her usual state, feel strange.
Elise is naturally able to capture emotional sensitivity. It is precisely because of this inexplicable talent that she feels that Lin Zichen will not hurt her. Just like when Elise met Athena, at the first sight of their meeting, Elise thought Athena was a trustworthy person. Lin Zichen felt the same way to her. Otherwise, how could she get along so closely with a person she didn't know for two days?
But today, after seeing the other side of Lin Zichen, Alice felt more and more that this man was not simple, at least not what she saw on the surface, which was not all of Lin Zichen.
Lin Zichen didn't notice that Elise was wrong. At this time, his attention was on the mummy in the tree. Carefully check the corpse in front of him. Although the corpse can't distinguish the appearance of a person because of time, Lin Zichen finds that the person must have encountered something terrible before he died through the subtle changes in the muscles on his face.
His face was full of fear. Although the realization was vague, he still couldn't escape Lin Zichen's eyes. The clothes of the corpse were torn and ragged, and there were traces of being grabbed by sharp claws on the body. Judging from the above traces, it was a large beast that killed the man, because the scratches on his body were very deep, which could not be caused by ordinary animals.
"Is it really a tiger?" Lin Zichen frowned slightly. The range of beasts that can cause such scars is very small. Cheetahs, tigers, bears, these animals can, and wolves are not excluded, but wolves are reluctant to cause such damage.
After checking the corpse, Lin Zichen stood up and looked at the flowers and plants around him. His mind carefully checked the surroundings. There were no signs of fighting, let alone the presence of wild animals.
Although the scale of this forest is small, it is not small. It only takes a few days to cover up the traces of wild animals, not to mention that this man has been dead for so long.
"Brother Tony." When Elise saw that Lin Zichen had finished the inspection, her voice revealed some fear: "brother Tony, do we want to go back?"
Elise finally realized the seriousness of the problem. It seems that mother-in-law ina is right. There are really terrible beasts in here!
"Hehe, don't worry, I will protect you." Lin Zichen smiled at Elise, and then took advantage of Elise's inattention and secretly used genuine Qi to protect Elise's body to ensure her safety.
"Brother Tony, do you think that beast will suddenly appear?" Elise tried not to look at the dried corpse in the tree and ran to linzichen. Only by his side, Elise would feel safe.
Looking at Elise like a chicken seeking protection, Lin Zichen couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, when she came, the woman was still vowing. Unexpectedly, a mummy made her flinch.
Of course, it's not Alice's fault. It's good that Alice, who grew up spoiled from childhood, can summon up the courage not to run around. At least she doesn't add trouble to Lin Zichen.
"This is the edge of the forest. Wild animals shouldn't haunt here." Lin Zichen thought for a while and comforted, "and there are many suspicious places here."
"Suspicious place?" Elise was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly asked, "what's suspicious?"
Seeing that Elise paid attention to herself, Lin Zichen smiled. In order to alleviate the fear in Elise's heart, he did it on purpose, and Elise didn't live up to her expectations. She was smart enough not to think about the body again.
"Why do you say beasts hunt?" Lin Zichen took a look at the surrounding environment and asked while planning the way forward.
"Of course, to fill your stomach." Alice subconsciously replied, "if it weren't for hunger, the beast wouldn't hunt."
"You're right. Beasts hunt to fill their stomachs, but this man hasn't been eaten." Lin Zichen smiled, looked at Elise's puzzled eyes and said, "this man's body has dried up and has been dead for some time in the world. From the traces on his body, we know that he was secretly attacked and died by wild animals, but why didn't the wild animals eat him?"
Lin Zichen is right. Ordinary beasts will not take the initiative to attack humans, whether tigers or other beasts. Only when there is no way out will they attack humans.
Of course, this will rule out some wild animals who are grumpy and like to attack humans. If the wild animals in the forest liked to attack humans, they would not shrink in the forest and would have gone out to attack humans long ago.
It was because of this that Lin Zichen judged that the beasts in it didn't like to attack humans, and they didn't kill because of lack of food.
"Will it be because this man entered the territory of the beast?" Elise immediately remembered what she saw on TV. When something invaded the territory, the beast would be angry and kill the thing that broke into the territory, whether human or other animals.
"This is not impossible." Lin Zichen nodded and then said, "but not everyone has invaded the territory of wild animals. What's more, there should be people with strong wild survival ability among these people. They will try to avoid the territory of these wild animals to protect themselves."
Then Lin Zichen's eyes became dangerous and said softly, "if this is true, it shows that these beasts came to them on their own."
"Brother Tony, can't the beast be so clever?" Elise was surprised and then asked cautiously.
"Hehe, don't underestimate these beasts. Sometimes their wisdom is no worse than human beings." Lin Zichen smiled. Then he looked at Elise and asked, "do you want to go in with me now?"
"Of course!" Elise nodded without hesitation, looked at Lin Zichen and said seriously, "I know brother Tony will protect me, right?"
Looking at Elise believing his eyes, Lin Zichen felt helpless. I hope the things inside won't scare the kind girl. His intuition told him that the forest is not as simple as it looks.
However, with him, Alice will not be hurt. Of course, it refers to physical damage. As for mental damage, Lin Zichen can't guarantee it.
Now Lin Zichen hopes that Elise's psychological quality can be stronger and don't be frightened by the things inside.
Choosing a direction, Lin Zichen took Elise in. With Lin Zichen, they don't have to worry about getting lost. Lin Zichen's natural senses enable them to find the correct direction, and the three meter diameter mind can help them avoid potential dangers.
"Wait." Elise followed Lin Zichen and was about to take a step. Lin Zichen suddenly stopped Elise. Before the latter reacted, she saw Lin Zichen bend down and reach out to catch a black-and-white snake!
Elise Wu's mouth was small and tried not to make a sound, but there was still fear on her face. If it weren't for Lin Zichen's reminder, I'm afraid she would step on the snake!
And the snake's head is triangular. You can see it's a poisonous snake at a glance. They have no serum to treat snake venom. Once they are bitten by a poisonous snake, they will be finished.
"Brother Tony, this..." Alice looked at the poisonous snake struggling violently in Lin Zichen's hand, and her face was pale.
Pinching the seven inches of the poisonous snake, Lin Zichen looked at the poisonous snake in his hand with more interest. This forest is really getting more and more interesting. He knew that the king cobra, the kind of poisonous snake in his hand, could live for more than 25 years, and its toxicity was five times that of Cobra! There are millions of people killed by king cobra in this world!
Lin Zichen knows that the king cobra branch is in Asia, but Greece is in Europe. According to the truth, this poisonous snake should not appear in this forest.
"Hehe, it seems that there is snake meat soup in the evening." Lin Zichen smiled. Then, in Alice's frightened eyes, she took out a bag, threw the king cobra in, and pinned it on her waist.
"Eat!" Alice said to Lin Zichen with a pale face: "brother Tony, that's a poisonous snake!"
"The meat of poisonous snake is the most delicious. I'll cook it for you back." Lin Zichen smiled and joked at Elise.
Looking at Lin Zichen's eyes, Elise quickly turned her head and thought to herself, "even if it's the food cooked by brother Tony, I will never eat it!"
Girls have a natural fear of snakes, and Alice is no exception.
King Cobra was found in this forest. Lin Zichen suddenly had a feeling that he might see a tiger or a lion here!
Although this feeling is very strange, this idea only revolves in his heart for a long time.
The two men went to the depths of linzichen again, and on the way, they found many corpses, some of which had become mummies, and some had become piles of white bones.
"It's really an interesting place." Looking at a white bone leaning on the rock, Lin Zichen smiled in his heart. From the first body they saw, the Woods found something wrong. Most of these people were killed by the same kind of beast, because the scratches on them were almost the same, and they all had the same feature on their bodies, only scratches, no bite marks.
Since they were all killed by the same beast, why didn't they eat these people, but just abandoned their bodies in the forest.
Is it because human flesh is not delicious? Lin Zichen hasn't eaten it. Naturally, he doesn't know what it tastes. But in front of the beast, whether it's human or animal, it should be food. What's more strange is that there are no birds in this forest except some small reptiles such as insects and lizards!
"Brother Tony, be careful!" Just as Lin Zichen was thinking, Elise's voice broke into his ear. As soon as he looked up, Lin Zichen saw a huge dark shadow rushing towards him.
