C235 Ambushing Soldier Liu Lie
The three of them watched from the cove that the road wasn't very far. However, they walked for quite a while before they finally approached the primeval forest.
At this moment, Wang Han, who was walking right in front, suddenly waved his hand, signaling the two of them to stop.
The two of them quickly stopped and looked curiously at where Wang Han was looking at at the same time.
In the midst of a dense forest, there was a dark shadow that was slowly swaying. Its body was very large, like four limbs touching the ground, and its height appeared to be very short.
Jiang Chen and Fu Shidong's heart skipped a beat at the same time.
Just as they were thinking of this, the three of them simultaneously heard a deep and powerful growl come from behind them.
"Quickly climb the tree!"
Wang Han shouted at the same time and climbed up a big, thick tree beside him.
Fu Shidong and Jiang Chen also quickly found a tree and climbed up.
The owner of the angry roar behind him, a bulky black bear, had already rushed to the side of the tree under Jiang Chen's feet. It used its thick paws to climb up the tree trunk.
"Don't worry, it can't climb up. It's too heavy."
Wang Han, who was sitting on another tree, hurriedly comforted Jiang Chen.
"Big brother Wang Han, shouldn't we play dead when we meet a black bear?"
Fu Shidong said.
"Normally it is possible, but this black bear has already seen that we are walking over, so even if we faked our deaths it would be useless. It would just slap us with its palm, and it would be weird if we could get even a few bones."
While the two of them were talking, the other black bear also ran over on all fours. Along with the black bear under the tree, it kept hitting the trunk of the tree.
The three of them hid in the trees, appearing to be in a dilemma.
Jiang Chen and Fu Shidong were confident that they would be able to beat back two black bears with absolute force. However, with Wang Han here, once he made a move, it would be revealed to him.
He didn't make a move. It wasn't a good idea to keep doing this.
Jiang Chen stood on the branch and thought for a while. He took out the multi-purpose military shovel from his backpack, climbed up the tree for a distance, and then started to chop down the thicker branches.
He cut off the twigs and twigs. Then he sharpened one end with an engineer's shovel to make a stick with a sharp spike at the end.
Holding the stick in his hand, Jiang Chen aimed at the black bear under the tree and threw it.
"Pfft …!"
The wooden stick pierced through the black bear's back and out from under its ribs. The black bear that was hit by the wooden stick immediately cried out.
It used its back to hit the tree trunk and break the stick on its back. Then, it stumbled and ran deeper into the forest.
The hit caused Jiang Chen to feel a sense of joy. Although he did it like a different person, he could at most explain that he was a javelin user, so it didn't matter if his arm strength was stronger.
Seeing that his attack had hit, Fu Shidong followed suit and made a stick. After aiming for the bear's target, he threw it at it alone.
However, his accuracy seemed to be a bit lacking. The wooden stick did not stab the black bear alone, but instead stabbed the left forelimb of the bear.
The black bear also let out a furious roar. Perhaps it was because of the pain, or perhaps it was because of its encounter with its kind. It also gave up on attacking the tree they were on and stumbled into the forest, disappearing very quickly.
The three of them looked at each other, feeling that they had somehow escaped death.
Meeting such a large and sturdy animal in the forest was indeed a very dangerous thing to do.
It was fortunate that Jiang Chen had an idea. Otherwise, he would have to either wait here for the Black Bear to leave or be their food.
"Brother, let's go!" Otherwise, it will be troublesome if Black Bear comes back later. "
Both the bears were injured, so they won't be coming back for a while.
"Hm!" "Alright!"
Wang Han also seemed to be afraid of Black Bear appearing again, so he nodded.
The three of them hurriedly got off the tree, found a direction, and ran forward.
After running for a distance, the pressure seemed to have lessened, and the speed of the three of them slowed down.
The trees in front gradually became thicker and taller. According to Wang Han's explanation, this should be the edge of the primeval forest, the border with the Black Bear Ridge.
"Looks like what I just stabbed was quite accurate. This bear actually died!"
The three of them walked forward. When they were about to enter the primeval forest, they saw the black bear that was pierced by Jiang Chen's stick. It leaned against a tree and had no signs of life.
Wang Han walked over and groped around the bear. After determining that it was really dead, he used his machete to make a mark on the tree trunk next to the bear.
They were about to enter the primeval forest, and once they entered, it would be hard for even him to guarantee that he would be able to walk out safely without a road sign.
Therefore, for safety reasons, he had to first mark them, so that when he came back he wouldn't get lost in the primeval forest.
The inside of the primeval forest was different from the outside. After entering, it was difficult for sunlight to reach the ground. At night, one could not even see the stars or the moon, making it extremely difficult to determine the direction.
Even experienced hunters get lost easily.
Going in without a road sign was no different from suicide.
It was just like sailing on the sea. There was no reference material to be found, so he could only rely on experience and caution.
Wang Han admitted that he didn't have the ability like Zhuo Ba. Even if Zhoba escaped from the forest, didn't he still end up in that miserable state?
The reason why he was so cautious was because he wanted to find a way out in the future.
The air in the primeval forest was filled with a damp and musty smell. The place that was close to the ground was devoid of sunlight, leaves, and animals. The rotten insects and corpses were slowly emitting an unpleasant smell.
It tasted like methane, but it was not the same as methane. It was a pungent, musty smell.
"There are basically no large animals in here anymore, but the mosquito, mouse and ant are all kinds of things that can kill, so you must be careful of the things around you."
Wang Han took out a handful of dark yellow powder from his pocket and randomly patted it on Jiang Chen and Fu Shidong's bodies.
This was his homemade powder, which could scare away many insects.
In this dense and humid forest, the smell was not easy to circulate, but it was enough to maximize the effect of the powder.
Along the way, the two of them had seen Wang Han's ability. Previously, before entering the primeval forest, he had to rely on his sense of direction to get here, so it could be seen that he frequently loitered around here. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such a strong sense of direction.
Of course, the matter of the black bear was an accident, something that no one could have predicted.
After sprinkling the powder, Jiang Chen and the other two continued to move forward. This powder gave off a faint stench. No one knew what it was made of, but in this initial forest filled with a musty smell, the stench was not as pungent.
"Wait a minute!"
The three of them advanced a distance. Fu Shidong suddenly stopped and waved to the two of them. Then, he squatted down and carefully lifted up his pants legs.1
It had been like a slug, black against his calves, its body shriveled but its surface covered with mucus.
