Feng Yin's expression was unclear and silent, saying that no matter what, it was a privilege to be able to follow me.

She didn't ask the most critical question, and she should still be concerned about the details of the war, how could my subordinates die under my command? Isn't she curious?

But Feng Yin didn't ask, their descendants had no malice towards me, unlike those people back then, who racked their brains to fabricate rumors to smear and attack me.

Fortunately, those people were full of malicious intentions towards me back then...

We ended the topic and continued to set off on the road. After several twists and turns, we found the area marked by Ganlu. The wreckage of the plane crash had long been swallowed up by the jungle. We wanted to follow the route of that year.

The first thing I thought of trapping Shenmu with a metal safe was that mysterious team. After the plane crashed, the box fell out, but it was not broken. Ganlu and the others saw the intact box, and there was no damage, but the box door was opened.

There was no sign of damage inside and outside the box, so the box door must have been opened by people in the team. The plane crashed, and the pilot and team members' bodies were mostly near the wreckage of the plane, and the box was also nearby, but the body of one person had never been found.

But that person is not a Chinese. What kind of doubt does he have? It is hard for others to say much about whether he is a Chinese or a Chinese person.

In short, when the safe was opened, Shenmu escaped from it. Ganlu followed the large army to search for it. Almost no one would pass by in the jungle. They were not worried that Shenmu would harm the locals unless it ran far away and attacked the village where humans lived.

"Fengyin, have you noticed that we have been walking along the direction of the river." I looked at the river beach on the left. Although the river next to it was just a tributary, we did keep walking by the water.

"Yes, boss, maybe Shenmu was walking along the river at that time. Didn't you say that it has some wisdom?"

"If it is a rule that human activities are followed in places with water sources, then it is indeed."

"But according to the map, there are no villages here."

"I just don't understand why Shenmu...or the people who brought it here choose this place, isn't it too far?"

In the era when the Shenmu was born, there were no tourist routes in this continent, only explorers would visit.

In those days, Chinese people did not have the intention to explore South America. Those who brought the sacred wood must have a very clear purpose.

"Maybe it's because the earth's environment is special. The big gourd and small gourd you mentioned sound like it's related to spells. Those human warlocks, alchemists, etc. often do something puzzling."

"Who said that the review is not dangerous anymore, I have to apply for some benefits when I look back."

He Fengyin chatted and walked, we came to the area where the tragedy occurred. The sacred tree that was dormant here attacked a member of the team at night.

The straw tucked the tent, sucking all the man's blood like drinking milk tea.

At that time, Shenmu was small and secretly approached the camp under the cover of night. As long as he lay in the grass, he could not see it without walking close to it.

Besides, its straw is long and you don't need to walk to the tent to get your mouth down.

The people on the night did not notice that there were too many sounds in the jungle, and things rushed over from time to time in the grass, and various birds and animals moved back and forth among the trees.

It is estimated that the movements made by Shenmu were regarded as small animals by the night watchman and believed that they were not threatening.

Because the report of Ganlu did not mention that night-time people discovered abnormalities until this happened three times.

After discussing, several leaders of the team decided to send more people around the camp to guard the camp and add surveillance equipment.

Then they finally discovered the trace of the Shenmu and set up a trap to catch it. The Shenmu at that time was not as smart as it is now. It was almost caught when it approached the camp for the fourth time.

Almost...

What's the difference?

In the report, Ganlu wrote that in order to avoid Shenmu's "blood-sucking thorn", she hit the tree trunk on the back of her head, and was forced to roll on the spot by the same team's indiscriminate shot. She fell from a broken slope. There was a small river below. Her head hit the gravel on the river beach and fainted.

After only twenty minutes after she woke up, she was not seriously injured and crawled back to the woods to find someone.

Feng Yin and I stood in the forest she was talking about, and also found the broken slopes and rivers she recorded, and simulated the scene at that time.

Ganlu returned to the forest, and the bodies on the ground were bloodless. She heard the sound of crying and searched with the sound and found a team member who was shot.

The man was not as lucky as her. He was cut through the outside of his thigh by shrapnel during indiscriminate strafing. Although there was no need to undergo surgery to get the shrapnel, it needed to be sutured. Ganlu quickly treated her with the instruments in the first aid kit.

They prepared sufficient medical supplies, but unfortunately both team doctors died. Fortunately, Ganlu could handle simple trauma, stitches, bone ties, etc., and she had no problem.

Rescuing the teammate who was shot, Ganlu looked around again and found another teammate who had a breath from a pile of grass.

The teammate was sucked in blood and his face was frighteningly pale. There was a small hole on his shoulder, which was stabbed by a "blood-sucking sting".

Without a blood bag, he had to give him blood transfusions, so he had to take blood-replenishing medicine and various nutritional tablets. This person was lucky enough to carry it down and his vitality was quite tenacious.

The last survivor was found in a tree. His arm was dislocated and it was difficult to get off when he went up.

Except for Ganlu, all the four people suffered varying degrees of injuries, so Ganlu took on the responsibility of taking care of them.

She counted the bodies and everyone was there, but Shenmu disappeared. When Ganlu was inspecting the bodies, she found that there was something strange about their cause of death. Not everyone died of excessive blood loss.

No police will intervene in an investigation when the fieldwork dies in a foreign country, because it is often not an ordinary murder case, and evidence collection and arresting the murderer cannot go through normal procedures.

But Ganlu suggested an autopsy on the body, but this is a joint field mission, and it is not a decision by one party. Even if the partner agrees, it will be a separate prosecution.

Although it is cooperation, there is no real trust between each other.

Ganlu contacted relevant departments from several other countries afterwards and wanted to see the autopsy results, but was rejected.

Her guess was only speculation. In the end, the four of them supported each other and walked out of the jungle, waiting for their respective responses. After receiving separate inquiries, they went back to their respective homes to close the case.

Ganlu was the one who knew the least. She was the first to fall into a coma and did not see the jungle massacre with her own eyes. When she was questioned, she was present with a professional psychological appraiser and an advanced lie detector. No matter from any perspective, she did not lie.

So she was asked the shortest time, while the other three sober teammates were "quarantined" for many days.

Everyone wants to know where Shenmu is going, and people who are awake are the most suspicious.

Judging from the results, the senior management failed to ask anything from the three people, so the task could only be completed.

The South American continent is so vast and densely populated by the forests, it is called the lungs of the earth. If you want to find a piece of wood in it, sending a thousand people is not enough.

I can only pay attention to subsequent reports from various countries to see if there is any news similar to the appearance of vampires, like the ones that are made by Nilu.

Because there is no, I have to give up.

I have seen how the Shenmu attacks people with my own eyes. It is not an exaggeration to say that it can solve a hundred people in twenty minutes.

Even for the front-line field, it can solve it, but if it was so strong at the time, how could it be caught later?

"Boss, do you suspect someone helped it escape?" Feng Yin listened to my analysis and came up to ask.

"Yes, the plane crashed, and there was a person's body that was never found. Maybe that person is still alive."

"He released the divine wood, followed him and helped him escape when he encountered danger. Is that right? But the divine wood should attack him first, right?"

"Not necessarily, do you remember the herb collector I mentioned? He was found to harm the neighbor's child and sent to the prison. When Shenmu was with him, he did not hurt him. Of course, Shenmu bewitched it and asked him to help him do things. He was just a tool man."

"Assuming that the situation you said is true, that person should not stay in the jungle and must follow Shenmu."

"The second time the Shenmu was discovered was in the Sakura Kingdom. This distance is indeed quite far. Let's continue to look for clues around. If we really can't find it, we can only believe that it swam past it."

When we were not outsiders, it was most convenient to move, and eating and sleeping were no longer necessary, especially when I, I could still continue to work when Fengyin stopped to rest.

I found a cave a few kilometers away from the accident site, which was the only place where I could hide within a radius of hundreds of miles.

If the special departments of other countries had sent people back to find the escaped Shenmu, I wonder if they had discovered this cave.

To be honest, the location of this cave is very hidden, and even if you stand at the foot of the mountain, you can't see the entrance.

It was blocked by a big tree, and there were dense plants growing around the entrance. I discovered its location because I had "heard" that there were thought activities inside.

The entrance is only half the size of an ordinary room door, so we have to bend down to get in.

After entering, we did not go down, but an upward slope. We also had to bend down. We had to walk in a lot of caves. There was nothing special about them. The living things inside were not interested in us. After climbing the slope, the space above was slightly wider, but we still had to lower our heads to walk.

Feng Yin had no night vision ability, so she turned on the flashlight and listened carefully to the sounds around her.

This hole has no airflow, it is particularly stuffy and has a very choking taste.

Feng Yin found a helmet by the wall, and this thing had become a nest of insects.

Feng Yin ruthlessly destroyed the homes of the insects, drove them out of their territory, and if they ran slowly, they would be killed. It was simply inhumane.

She looked at the helmet and said it was an old style, a style often worn by explorers in the 19th century.

It was already ragged, otherwise it would be considered an antique if it was taken out. It would be so broken that it would not cost much money to sell it. I asked Fengyin to throw it back. The insects might be unable to leave their hometown and would come back to rebuild their homeland.

Walking further inside, we saw several corpses, three, to be precise. They were sitting side by side in front of the wall. The cave reached the end, and the straight line was not twenty meters away, with no forks and no suites. It was clear at a glance when climbing up the hill.

Death in such a shallow cave, it is definitely not trapped to death, and the entrance of the cave was not sealed.

Feng Yin took out his camera and took a photo of the cave and the corpse as he taught during the training in the unit.

These three corpses have their own merits. The one in the middle is purple, which is a mummy. The magic of it is that the corpse is well preserved and is incredibly beautiful. There are snakes and insects in the cave, but no living creatures disturb the corpse and they do not chew it to the point of being unfair.

Besides, in such a humid and stuffy environment, without thick cloth or coffin, how can a mummy be formed?

My name is Fengyin, don't get too close. The body is purple all over, and it is likely to be poisonous. It is this special toxin that keeps it dry in a humid environment, and there are no insects and ants coming close to it.

The corpses on both sides were even more strange. The two corpses had been boned, but they were outrageously long and only had the upper body. If the skull had no facial features, it would be like a skinned winter melon, one head and two long.

Each of the bones on their upper body has been lengthened, and the rest of them is normal, and the leg bones and foot bones are both normal.

Feng Yin took photos in all directions without missing any details. When she finished taking the photos and recording, I took out the hook and stick and searched the purple corpse.

The clothes on its body were rotten like rags, and it seemed that the toxins only protected the body, not the clothes.

But in its top pocket, there was something sealed with plastic cloth. I hooked it out and pulled it to my feet.

I used a hook and stick to cut the plastic cloth, and the thick plastic cloth wrapped around a piece of wood.

I am so familiar with the texture and color of this wood. Is this part of the divine wood...?

It was small, only half the size of a pencil, and Fengyin stood beside me and reminded me to be careful.
To be continued...
