Chapter 213 Death Zone
The bald-headed Xie Zidan was still driving the three Qin Haodong, but compared with the previous few days, Xie Zidan's attitude had changed significantly. In the past, he didn't talk to Qin Haodong at all, but now he started chatting.
Although he also spent 1 million, from the bottom of his heart, he is still very grateful to Qin Haodong. If it weren't for him, he would have died under the hands of the Five Poison Mercenary Group.
The two Hummers traveled slowly for another day, and they were getting closer and closer to their destination as the evening approached.
"Are we coming soon?" Hu Xiaoxian asked.
"Wait for me to take a look." Xie Zidan said, and called up the electronic map on the car to see how far it was from the destination they marked.
"It's really coming. At this speed, we will have half a day tomorrow, but the road ahead is getting harder and harder, and the danger is getting higher and higher.
The area we are going to enter is called the dead zone. According to the data from the previous investigation, 18 expeditions have been here, but after entering the dead zone, they disappeared completely, and not even a bit of information came out. "
He was talking when suddenly the electronic map flickered, then turned into a snowflake, and there was no more display.
"What's the matter? Is there no signal here? Our car is connected to a military satellite signal, and it is impossible to disappear."
Xie Zidan was playing with the electronic map while talking, but it was still a piece of snow, and there was no response.
Hu Xiaoxian took out his mobile phone and looked at it and said, "Don't look at it, our mobile phone is also connected to a military satellite, but now there is no signal at all."
Xie Zidan sighed: "This place is really evil. No wonder no information came out after the expedition team came in. It turns out that there is no signal from any electronic equipment here."
Qin Haodong said: "This is normal. If it is not evil, it will not be called the death zone."
Xie Zidan said: "Doctor Qin, we have a mission on our shoulders and we have to come. If you have nothing to do, you might as well leave. It's too dangerous here, and you have children with you."
Qin Haodong knew that he was well-intentioned, and said with a smile: "The medicinal materials I want to harvest are only available in the death zone. It's not a waste of time to quit now."
As they were talking, the Humvee drove into a small valley. This valley covers an area of about one square kilometer. It is completely different from the outside. There is not too high vegetation here. It makes people feel suddenly enlightened here.
The most surprising thing is that there is a pool in the center of the valley. The pool is not too big, but it is very clear, and there is a small island of 20 to 30 square meters in the middle of the pool. Let people sigh the magic of the creator.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and there was not much light in the forest, but it was dyed golden by the setting sun, and it looked so beautiful.
"Baba, this place is so beautiful, it's like a world in a fairy tale." The little guy jumped happily in Qin Haodong's arms. So many days of living in the big forest really made her feel a little bored.
But after entering here, Qin Haodong frowned. Hu Xiaoxian, who was also in a good mood, glanced at him and asked, "What's the matter? Don't you like it here?"
"It's not that I don't like it, but I have a bad feeling about it."
He made another divination at random, which was indeed a great omen.
At this moment, the Humvee in front stopped, and Lei Tianrui got out of the car one after another and began to unload the equipment from the car. It looked like they were going to camp near the waterhole.
Qin Haodong said to Hu Xiaoxian, "I don't feel very good about this place. Tell them if we can move forward for a while before camping."
Hu Xiaoxian said, "Are you tired? I feel very good here, very suitable for camping."
Qin Haodong said with a serious look: "If you believe me, change the place. This is no joke."
"Okay, I'll go tell them now."
Hu Xiaoxian was very convinced of Qin Haodong's magical performance along the way. Although he liked the beautiful scenery here very much, he still decided to believe in Qin Haodong.
Although it doesn't feel good, it cannot be denied that the scenery here is really good. Qin Haodong also got out of the car with the little guy and walked around the pool.
The depth of the pool can be three or four meters, and the width can be twelve or thirteen meters. The water of the pool is clear and you can see the pebbles at the bottom. There are also some unknown fish wandering around. Maybe these fish have never seen humans, and I don't know the fear, but the two of them still swim happily after seeing Qin Haodong.
At this time, Hu Xiaoxian came to Lei Tianrui's side and said, "Let's not camp here, rush forward for a while, and then find a suitable place to camp."
Lei Tianrui said: "Xiaoxian, are you stupid? The scenery here is so beautiful, it's like a fairyland on earth, and camping here is perfect."
Hu Xiaoxian said, "Haodong said that he doesn't feel good about this place, and it is very likely that there will be danger, so we'd better change to another place."
Hearing that it was Qin Haodong's idea, Lei Tianrui's face suddenly turned cold.
Dong Sihai said with a look of disdain: "Xiaoxian, you must not listen to him, he is just a doctor, and he can treat diseases well, but I am a jungle expert, and I am better at surviving in this big forest than me. yes."
As he said, he pointed around, "Look at the environment here, beauty is secondary, and safety is the most important. There are no tall trees around. If there are wild beasts, we can immediately find out, even if there is a situation that cannot be resisted, this There is also a small island in the pool, we can go to the island to escape.
I have been in the big forest for more than ten years, and I have never seen a place more suitable for camping than this place. He even said that this place is not good. I can only say that it is really ignorant. "
At the end, he turned his face away, almost shouting at Qin Haodong.
Zhao Qiankun also said: "That's right, Xiaoxian, you don't want to listen to him in everything, we are members of Xuanyuan Pavilion, and the lowest cultivation base is also a Mingjin ninth-rank martial artist. I haven't seen any big winds and waves, so there's no need to listen to a little white face. Nonsense."
"If you don't listen, you won't listen. There's no need to attack others."
Although Hu Xiaoxian was dissatisfied with the attitude of these people towards Qin Haodong, she also felt that what they said made some sense. This place does seem to be very suitable for camping.
Qin Haodong also heard the conversation of several people, he stepped over and said, "I just said this, believe it or not."
Dong Sihai said disdainfully: "It's strange to believe you. I'm a jungle expert. If it's still dangerous here, there's no safe place."
Qin Haodong didn't say more, it was enough to make some things clear. Even if there was danger, he was confident that he could protect the little guy and Hu Xiaoxian.
"What are you pretending to be, just a little doctor, and even pretending to be a jungle expert." After Zhao Qiankun finished speaking, he spat on the ground. He was usually the most stingy, but now Qin Haodong has taken away 3 million in succession. Gotta die.
Dong Sihai said: "Boss, don't worry, it's far from the forest and it's not suitable for hunting. I'll see what else he will eat tonight."
Zhao Qiankun said: "That's right, he won't have to come and beg us..."
As he was talking, a burst of aroma suddenly wafted out. He turned his head and saw that Qin Haodong and the three had set up a bonfire and baked four or five plump fish on the fire.
In addition to grilled fish, there is also wine and meat, which looks very rich.
Wang Yuancheng exclaimed in surprise: "Fuck, is he Doraemon? How can such a small backpack have so much food?"
Lei Tianrui's face also became very ugly. Although they brought a lot of equipment, they only had some dry food and plastic-sealed meat products, which was far worse than others.
At the same time, he wanted to use food to blackmail Qin Haodong, and his plan to get the 30 million thrown out was in vain.
Zhao Qiankun said: "No, we have to think of another way."
Lei Tianrui said: "Actually, it's easy to find him trouble. She has been building our car from beginning to end, so just ask him to collect some fares."
Zhao Qiankun slapped his head and said, "Yeah, why didn't I think of it, this guy took the child in our Humvee, and it's not too much to charge him 1 million a day."
Lei Tianrui said: "How can 1 million a day be enough? We threw out 30 million. At this rate, it will take 30 days to get it back. We don't have that much time, so we charged him 5 million a day."
"I know the boss." Zhao Qiankun exclaimed excitedly: "I will go to him now to ask for money, and I will let him walk by himself tomorrow if I don't pay."
Qin Haodong was shaving the fishbone on the little guy's meat, and when he saw Zhao Qiankun coming over, he said, "What's the matter, didn't you come to me again to collect the protection fee?"
Zhao Qiankun's expression was stagnant, but he still said cheekily: "The protection fee is not charged, then if you take our car every day, you will always have to pay some fare. Our boss said that it is 5 million a day, if you don't pay it, you will walk by yourself."
Hu Xiaoxian said angrily: "5 million? Why don't you go grab it? Although these two Hummers have been modified, the price is only about 3 million. You actually charge 5 million for a day. Are you crazy about money?"
Zhao Qiankun said plausibly: "That's different. We are here in Shennongjia. If you walk, it is very dangerous, and special places will naturally require special charges. 5 million a day is cheap."
In fact, Qin Haodong doesn't care about whether he is in the car or not, and now that he is close to the location of the underground palace, it will be more convenient for him to act alone with the little guy.
But at this moment, the roar of a wild beast came from the edge of the basin, and a huge leopard rushed over here.
"No, there are beasts!"
Hu Xiaoxian said, she stretched out her hand and took out the purple electric sword from her waist, and stood in front of Qin Haodong and the little guy.
"It's really useless, you actually want a woman to protect it!" Zhao Qiankun seemed to have finally found an opportunity to express himself. He took out a single sword from his back, greeted the leopard, and said as he walked, "Let me show you today. See what a pure man is."
But he just walked out not far, and his expression was stunned. There was not only a leopard directly in front of him, but all kinds of beasts rushed in from the edge of the basin one after another, including black bears, tigers, wild wolves, rhinos, zebras. , Huang Yang, these beasts have been connected together, but the leopard is the fastest, so it rushed in first.
Zhao Qiankun didn't care about anything, he turned his head and ran back, no longer caring about showing that he was a pure man. Even stepping on so many beasts will kill him, not to mention that he is only a ninth-rank Ming Jin, even if his cultivation is raised to another level, he cannot be an opponent of so many beasts.
Not only him, everyone here became nervous, Lei Tianrui called to Dong Sihai: "What the hell is going on?"
Dong Sihai said blankly: "I don't know, I've never seen such a situation before. It's like the legendary beast tide."
