Chapter 169 The Holy Land in the Wilderness (Part 1)

The ditch was so deep that it was almost impossible to see what was going on inside. Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow over everyone's cheeks, piercing their skin so painfully. In the end, no one held on and took a few steps back.

"It's cold."

"Yeah, it's much colder here than outside. Now that the road ahead is gone, can we go there?"

"Ask the tour guide first and see what he says."

After the people left, Shen Zhuo approached the deep ditch, felt the cold wind blowing from below, his nose twitched, and in the wind, he smelled a foul smell, the same smell as the dead sheep he saw in the fence before.For this journey, he was a little more wary.

From this point of view, I was pulled into the dream to force empathy, maybe it was a reminder and warning, or it was an extremely obvious killing intent, but the other party was not as strong as myself.

It didn't kill itself, but was killed by itself.

Shen Huo stood on the cliff thinking about the question and answer, a trace of Yin Qi tried to approach him, suddenly Kuo Luo let out a low growl, and the Yin Qi shrank back with a "swish".

Shen Huo just came back to his senses, looked at the dog who was barking behind him, and looked back, there was nothing, only a chilly wind occasionally blowing in the deep ditch.

He stroked Kuo Luo's dog's head, "Let's go."

Kuo Luo followed Shen Huo away from the cliff and came to the tour guide. At this time, they were discussing how to get there.

When Keji saw that his big dog was following Shen Huo's pace, his eyes flashed with surprise.

"Come here, come here, are you hungry? I'll bring you your favorite beef jerky. Come and eat."

Kuoluo came to Keji, sniffed Keji's smell, then lay down on the ground, and ate the jerky slowly.

Seeing Shen Huo approaching, Wang Xian asked in a low voice, "Brother Huo, are you feeling better?"

"I'm fine, Uncle Keji, where do we go around?"

Keji was rubbing his dog's head, and when he heard Shen asked himself, he said, "Now we can only take a detour, go down here, pass a wild grass forest, and walk around a small lake to reachGhost lake."

Wang Xian frowned and said, "Uncle, that's not what you said just now. You said that you want us to wait for my uncle to deliver the steel plates that can pass. I can't justify adding more money. Now you have changed your mind?"

Keji said embarrassingly: "It's not that I don't want to say it. It's that the place we detour is too far away. It takes time and effort. Most people don't want to go at all. The main reason is that there are many swamps in that area, and they will fall into them if they are not careful.That area has been a bit unsettled recently, and I am worried that we have encountered unclean things in the past."

Hearing that there were unclean things, Wang Xian's attitude was not so tough. Instead of getting angry, he carefully asked what unclean things were in the forest.

Keji said: "I don't know too well, I just know that several tourists disappeared in this area before. We searched for a few days, but only found a few damaged clothes, but we never found them. Originally, I didn't want to come,But Duona is the granddaughter of the Great Witch, and Director Wang gave me another bottle of fine wine, the men of our grasslands keep their promises, so I promised to send you here..."

He looked at the deep ditch with a bit of concern and worry in his expression.

"Boss Xiao Wang, let's go back first, the road will be paved later, it's not too late to go."

"This..." Wang Xian glanced at Shen Huo hesitantly.

"Listen to Keji first, go back!" Shen confused.

"Okay, let's go back first!"

Wang Xian greeted everyone to leave first.

The other spoiled guests felt a little bit of resentment in their hearts, and whispered in their mouths: "What, we climbed back for so long and then fell back?"

"I'm so tired. I've never traveled such a long distance. The assistant director, let's camp here temporarily and wait for Director Wang and the others to deliver the materials. Why do we have to go back? It's not worth it."

Wang Xian thought it made sense, so he asked Keji if he could camp here?

Keji was stunned for two seconds, then honestly shook his head, "I didn't spend the night in the bushes. But I want to advise you, be careful of wild wolves attacking, and it's best to prepare more wolf-proof tools."

"Well, let's set up camp here and everyone move."

Shen Huo interrupted Wang Xian, "It's better to camp farther away from that deep ditch."

"No problem, let's pierce far away."

Wang Xian yelled at everyone to work, because there were few people brought this time, and some guests needed to set up camp by themselves.

Shen Huo automatically started camping, tinkering there by himself, and he was preparing to pick up shrubs under it, so that he could sleep more comfortably at night.

When he picked up a stone and knocked on the fulcrum of the tent, he found a black worm hidden under the stone. After fiddled with it, the worm turned into a long centipede and slowly crawled away.

There was something weird about the bug, and when Shen Huozhang was studying it, the bug disappeared.

"How old is the young man, he still plays with bugs."

Keji smiled and found some wood, and lit the stone he brought with a lighter. In an instant, the stone ignited the bushes with a handful of flames.

It may be because of the rain at night, the bushes are still a little wet, and the burning is very slow, but slowness has the advantage of being slow, at least when burning, the bushes are burned a little.

Shen Huo didn't feel embarrassed when Keji laughed, so he beat and tidied up the tent by himself.

"Uncle, how did that deep ditch come about?"

Keji shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't seen this deep ditch when I came to find someone before, and it's the first time I saw it today."

After Shen Huo finished the tent, he took the pancakes and baked them on the fire. After they were browned on both sides, he blew on the hot air on the pancakes. After he took a bite, the pancakes were soft and full of flavor, with a slight sweetness to them.

This is the time when Shen Zhuo is about to leave, the pancakes on the table are just right to eat now.

Keji laughed and said: "I can't tell, he's still a budget-conscious kid. I thought you urbanites couldn't get used to this rough food."

Shen Tuo smiled, gave him another pancake, and took out a few more pancakes from his bag and baked them on the fire.

"Uncle, how do you sleep at night?"

Keji patted the contents of his bag, "Wrapped in a piece of sheepskin, you can sleep. In this season, when the cattle and sheep are fat on our grassland, wild wolves harass us. We have to sleep in the sheepfold, which is convenient for guards."Cattle and sheep. Although this sheepskin is inconspicuous, you are a good antifreeze!"

Shen confused: "I sleep alone in my tent, you can come to sleep in the tent at night."

Keji was taken aback for a moment, and said with a smile, "How embarrassing this is."

"It's okay, I like Kuoluo very much, and it's rude to let you old gentleman sleep outside."

"Hahaha, I also like my Kuoluo very much. It has a weird temper and rarely gets close to people. I haven't seen it get so close to a person. You are also destined."

"Why do you say it has a bad temper? I think it's pretty good."

Keji was happy and didn't explain much, and Shen Huo didn't ask too much.

"Brother Huo, Uncle Keji has eaten!" Wang Xian walked over and saw the pancakes on the fire, and asked in a daze for two seconds, "Brother Huo, you can actually eat them?"

Shen Huo stuffed a somewhat hot pancake into his arms, quickly grabbed the egg noodles in his hand, picked it up and took a bite.

Pancakes are very hungry, and another bowl of egg noodles can last the whole day.

"The pancakes are okay, eat more."

Holding the hot pancake, Wang Xian moved his hands up and down to take a bite, almost breaking his teeth, grinning, and conveniently put the bitten pancake into his pocket.

"It's too hard, Brother Huo, your teeth shouldn't be steel teeth, right?"

Shen Huo showed her white teeth, "Yes, don't mess with me, be careful I'll bite you."

Wang Xian laughed, turned around and ran to eat noodles.

Shen Huo looked at his back, shook his head, and began to eat noodles.

The camp was buzzing.

After Shen Huo was full, he squatted next to the tent with Kuo Luo and looked at the stars in the sky.

Compared with the starry sky in the city, the starry sky on the grassland is clean and transparent, which makes Shen Huo like the feeling of looking at the stars.

"gorgeous."

Shen Huo stroked the small wooden sign hanging around his neck, staring at the starry sky.

Dogs are not as sentimental as humans, but they are dedicated to their duties, with their ears raised high, alert to their surroundings.

Woohoo!

A howl of wolves interrupted the noise of the camp.

Shen Huo sat up, feeling that the body of Kuo Luo beside him was tense, as if he was wary of something, he let out low growls.

Looking carefully into the bushes, a pair of oily green eyes stared at Shen Zhuo.

In the place illuminated by the fire, a wild wolf with a ferocious face was seen coming out of the bushes.

"There are wolves!"

The camp became lively in an instant, holding a flashlight to shine on the bushes in the distance.

The wolves didn't seem interested in light, they only stared at the living flesh in the camp.

A wolf rushed up and was killed by a tall black shadow.

It's Kolo!

"Aww!"

The wolf's blood stimulated Kuoluo's bloodiness, and he started howling like a wolf.

Keji took a long knife and slashed at the wolves. Maybe it was Keji's evil spirit that made the wolves attack him.

"How come there are so many wolves? We're not going to attract wolves from all directions to come here, right?" Wang Xian said with trembling legs.

Seizing the opportunity, a wolf opened its mouth wide at Wang Xian and kicked that one kick away.

The bodyguards that Director Wang had recruited before were also brought in this time. They are retired soldiers, and they are sure about wild wolves. It is not a problem to protect a few guests.

Standing alone on one side, Shen Huo knocked two of them unconscious with one punch. He took out the talisman paper, and after burning, he grabbed a handful of gray sawdust and threw it in. The smell wafted in all directions, killing the wolvesXun ran away.

"It's really useful."

The sawdust packed in a small cloth bag is what Zhai Hongyun said in his free time to take away the spices from wild animals.

He forgot about it before, and used it temporarily, and it worked.It's just that it's not very friendly to the friendly side, and the smell is too strong, which directly smoked the mighty and domineering Kuoluo just now into the arms of the master.

"I'll go, Brother Huo, what does this smell like, it stinks too much?"

"Maybe, maybe some weasel hair was mixed in." Shen Huan said aggrievedly.

He didn't know that what Zhai Hongyun gave was so powerful that even he himself couldn't bear the smell, let alone the wolves.
