Chapter 251 Out of the Mountains
Looking at Shen Xun's childish face, Yang Lan couldn't help but wonder what she had gone through.
After rejecting Yang Lan's invitation, the two no longer talked as before.
"Captain, it's time to eat," a team member shouted to Yang Lan, who asked Shen Xun if he wanted to join him.
Seeing that Shen Xun still shook his head and refused, Yang Lan didn't bother him anymore and followed the team member back to the assembly area.
A large pot was burning on the burning alcohol block, and white noodles were boiling in the pot. Due to lack of water, the noodles were half-cooked.
But everyone still devoured it as if it was a delicacy in the world. In the end, everyone shared two mouthfuls of the noodle soup.
The air smelled of batter, and Shen Xun stuffed an ice cube into his mouth.
With his back to everyone, Shen Xun took out the fruit from the space and ate it slowly.
In less than ten minutes, Yang Lan and others finished their meal.
"Take your things and go back to the base," Yang Lan shouted at the top of her lungs, and everyone began to get busy, packing away the alcohol cubes and the noodle pot.
"Let's go," Yang Lan said and looked towards Shen Xun, seeing that Shen Xun was facing away from them, his head lowered from time to time.
Hearing the word "go", Shen Xun put the remaining fruit in his hand into the space and patted the fruit juice on his hand.
After they walked a certain distance, Shen Xun stood up from the ground and followed a few people not far away.
"Captain, what are you looking at?" A team member followed Yang Lan's gaze and looked back, only to see nothing behind the team.
"I didn't see anything, let's go quickly," Yang Lan withdrew her gaze, quickened her pace, and urged everyone to walk faster.
We must get out of this pile of rocks before dark.
Even though the speed of the people walking in front suddenly increased, Shen Xun still followed them steadily.
The black mud given by the doctor has been used up. This time, everyone on the road did not rest. Even the food was eaten in a hurry while on the road.
In the dark night, Shen Xun took out homemade milk tea and braised chicken legs from the space and ate them while walking.
The temperature must have risen recently. Shen Xun looked at the melted ice cubes at the bottom of the cup and added some more.
The compass was still turning randomly, and it was unclear which direction it was in. Shen Xun put the compass back.
Seeing the sun gradually rising, Shen Xun took out sunburn ointment from the space and applied a thick layer on the exposed skin.
"Finally out...", one of the team members looked at the exit in the distance and cried with joy.
In the future, he would never take on any other missions in the mountains, and he didn't even want to step foot in this place again.
"Yeah, it's finally out."
"Take a rest here and set off in half an hour," Yang Lan looked at the mountain exit not far ahead with an incomprehensible expression.
The people at Taoyuan Base also want glutinous rice worms, so they definitely won't give up just like that. It's better to be cautious.
This place is far from the outskirts of the mountain range, and alienated bugs rarely move around here. Everyone heard that they could rest for half an hour, so they immediately lay down on the ground and closed their eyes.
Hidden behind the rocks, Shen Xun looked at the people lying on the ground to rest in front of him. There seemed to be fewer alienated bugs on the ground.
Yang Lan selected two members of the team who were relatively energetic and went to explore the exit of the mountain together to avoid being ambushed by people from Taoyuan.
Taking out the compass from the space, the pointer rotated randomly on the dial for a minute before gradually returning to normal.
"Three o'clock..." Shen Xun looked at the direction given by the pointer. It seemed that there was indeed something in the mountains that interfered with its normal use.
Heading towards the direction given by the pointer, Shen Xun stopped following Yang Lan and others. His figure quickly disappeared from the spot. The next second, Shen Xun's figure appeared on the boulder.
Taking out the telescope, Shen Xun looked towards the three o'clock direction and saw that the huge rocks were gradually decreasing, and dead branches could be faintly seen.
Jumping down from the boulder, Shen Xun's figure quickly moved towards the dead tree. Ever since he discovered that the mountains were full of alienated insects.
She never had a good rest, and she only slept lightly. She would wake up if there was any loud movement.
The mental energy that I had just recovered before was exhausted in this mountain range. My body can hold on, but my spirit is a little overwhelmed.
Bang, his feet stepped firmly on the ground, looking at the dead branches in front of him, a smile appeared on Shen Xun's lips, he finally came out.
After releasing Laifu from the space, "Ouch~", Laifu pounced on Shen Xun, as if complaining that Shen Xun had not released it for so many days.
Laifu stuck out his tongue and licked Shen Xun, then he got into a good position, and his huge head was ready to push against Shen Xun.
"Fuck..." Laifu was moving very fast, and Shen Xun turned aside to hide. Even though Laifu had grown so big, he still couldn't get rid of this habit.
She wasn't even prepared for it to hit her like this...
Shen Xun dodged in time, and Laifu hit the place where Shen Xun had just been lying down, and a small pit appeared in the mud.
Looking at the small pit on the ground, Shen Xun stood up and patted the dust on his insulating clothes.
