Chapter 1069 [Non-Government Armed Forces]
---------..
As they got closer, the two women realized that what Yang Chen was holding was a pile of mud-like, yet solid objects.
Liu Mingyu and Xiao Zhiqing stood up involuntarily, a little afraid to approach Yang Chen.
"Husband, what are you hugging?"
Yang Chen threw this lump of things on the ground, and immediately, among some debris, a dense bunch of small bugs ran out one after another under the light of the fire!
"ah!!"
The two women screamed involuntarily and hugged each other!
After a closer look, I found that the mound was full of fine holes, which were actually nests of insects!
Yang Chen laughed happily: "It's okay, this is just a part of a termite nest, it's not harmful to people, it's a good thing!"
"Termite nest!?"
If you take a closer look, what is crawling on the ground is indeed a bunch of fat termites. I have only seen this thing on TV, and this is the first time I have seen it!
Liu Mingyu said anxiously: "You have nothing to do with such a thing, don't you want to scare us to death!?"
Yang Chen scratched his head, sat down with a smile, and suddenly reached out and grabbed all the termites on the ground into his hand, then stuck out his tongue and ate them all!
"Ah...you...you..."
The two women's watery eyes were wide open, full of disbelief, their eyebrows were frowning and they couldn't speak.
Xiao Zhiqing felt a little nauseous and covered her mouth involuntarily.
Yang Chen chewed the termites, frowned and swallowed them, then continued to find those fleeing termites, grabbed them and sent them to his mouth.
While eating, he explained: "Under the same weight, the calories of termites are more than twice that of beef, so it is still worth eating. You must not be able to stand it, so I will eat it."
Although what Yang Chen talked about was a scientific theory of nutrition, but emotionally speaking, the two women still felt it was too disgusting!
"Then why don't you come back after eating! Why did you bring back such a lump of termite nest!" Liu Mingyu muttered.
Yang Chen shrugged, "Termite nests are made of various mixtures of soil and termite saliva. Aboriginal people will use the smell produced by burning termite nests to drive away mosquitoes in the wild. I see that you are bitten by various mosquitoes when you sleep at night. , I brought a bunch of them back.”
Hearing what Yang Chen said, the two girls came to understand. Although their hearts were warm, after all, Yang Chen left them the most edible things, and went to eat these disgusting bugs by himself.
But it was really hard to accept it immediately in my heart, I still closed my eyes, not daring to watch the scene of Yang Chen eating termites.
Yang Chen didn't take it seriously either, this kind of behavior that seemed to him to be nostalgic would definitely be considered crazy in the eyes of ordinary people.
But Yang Chen knew that with his current physical condition, if he wanted to take the two women out of Arnhem smoothly, he had to spare no effort to survive, whether it was disgusting or dirty, in short, being able to survive was the last word!
The next day was bright, and the three of them set off again.
With the experience of the previous few days, the two women are not surprised by Yang Chen's various "weird" behaviors.
Along the way, Yang Chen used various methods to catch some such as Papuan pythons and Australian turtles, not to mention scorpions and spiders.
When the two girls saw Yang Chen cut off the head of an Australian tall spider and swallowed it alive, they almost fainted from fright.
Fortunately, Yang Chen didn't force them to eat all kinds of "high protein" that he regarded as precious, but cooked relatively normal meat for the two of them.
By the fourth day, it was not far from the northern coast of Australia.
The three of them stopped by a river for a while, and Yang Chen used the barb-like thorns from the pandanus trees by the river, connected with a fiber extracted from the bag, to make fishing lines and hooks.
From a rotten tree, some mahogany nematodes were dug out, some were used as bait, and some were eaten directly by themselves.
With such a crude equipment, Yang Chen really caught two catfish. This kind of freshwater fish will multiply in all major waters of the world, so Yang Chen is not too surprised.
Surviving in the wild these days has allowed the two women to live and barbecue very skillfully.
After eating the catfish, he regained strength and continued on the road.
Knowing that it would be possible to leave Arnhem Land within one day at most, Xiao Zhiqing breathed a sigh of relief, but said with regret: "It's a pity that I have been so busy traveling these days that I haven't been able to collect medicinal materials properly."
Yang Chen laughed at himself, "Even if I collect it, it's useless, at least I haven't thought of a way to restore my cultivation, let alone the comprehension of Samadhi True Fire..."
Xiao Zhiqing said helplessly: "Enlightenment is something that cannot be forced. After all, the True Fire of Samadhi is much more profound than Lihuo. You are still so young, it is already very rare to be able to cultivate to that level."
Yang Chen knew that this was just consolation, but he didn't want to mention anything more. He knew his own situation best. He had a vague understanding of the mystery of Samadhi True Fire, but there was always something missing.
But all of this, for me who has no cultivation base now, has become a theory on paper.
After driving for half a day, the temperature gradually dropped, and the plants gradually changed into a coastal style.
Although it was still uninhabited, the three of them felt that they should not be far from a populated place.
At this moment, Yang Chen suddenly saw a few off-road vehicles coming over from behind a small high slope, and quickly driving towards the three of them!
At the first moment, Yang Chen felt something was wrong!
Because those three off-road vehicles are obviously modified military off-road vehicles!
And as far as I know, there will be no troops stationed in this area at all, that is to say, these people are non-government armed forces!
Sure enough, when the three off-road vehicles approached a certain position, Yang Chen saw that the bronze-colored, muscular men with headbands tied on them all had hideous faces, with malicious intentions, machine guns on their faces, and evil spirits on their faces. Looking at the three of them!
Liu Mingyu grabbed Yang Chen's arm nervously, knowing that there was no way to escape, she worriedly asked: "Honey, are they going to arrest us?!"
Yang Chen's heart was also heavy. If he had cultivation, he wouldn't care what these people did, but the current self, except for his rich practical experience, was not much different from ordinary people, so how could he protect the two people around him? a woman?
Liu Mingyu did have good internal strength as the peak acquired, but lacked actual combat experience.
And these strong men, it can be seen from their aura that they are all top mercenaries who have been battle-tested and their heads are on their crotches!
Even if Liu Mingyu has actual combat experience, it's impossible for him to get good results under so many machine guns!
"Don't talk yet, let's see what they are doing." Yang Chen grasped the woman's hand tightly.
Xiao Zhiqing also hid behind Yang Chen shyly, timidly daring not to make a sound.
As soon as the three off-road vehicles approached, they immediately surrounded the three of them. A blond white bearded man with withered blond hair held a short rifle in his hand and looked at the three of them jokingly.
"Yellow race, Chinese? Japanese? Korean?" The big man asked in English with a not-so-standard accent.
Yang Chen also couldn't tell what kind of mercenary organization this was, but even if he really recognized him, Yang Chen wouldn't say who he was, because in the case of losing his cultivation, if the other party had a grudge, it would be tantamount to committing suicide!
Therefore, Yang Chen knew that he was determined not to let the other party know his identity.
"We are from Huaxia, and fell into the land of Arnhem due to a plane accident. May I ask what's the matter?" Yang Chen asked in English as calmly as possible.
The big man looked stunned, but his eyes glanced at the two women beside Yang Chen, flashing a bit of greed.
"My friend from Huaxia, you must be very tired. Why don't I invite you to have a drink...and... I never expected that there would be such a beautiful lady in such a damned place. My name is Ryan, I hope Invite the two young ladies to visit our base as guests..."
Ryan laughed, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth, the meaning contained in it, I don't want to know it!
The other mercenaries also opened their mouths and whistled happily, all eyes locked on the two women.
At this scene, Liu Mingyu and Xiao Zhiqing were a little frightened, and they immediately grabbed onto Yang Chen and dared not let go.
"Honey, what should I do..." Although Liu Mingyu had practiced for a while, she had never really done it.
Yang Chen smiled wryly in his heart, he really met a "gray mercenary", he said that because such a mercenary is completely morally depraved, without discipline and rules, he does all kinds of evil!
But in the current situation, he has lost his cultivation, and the three of them have no way to escape!
