Chapter 45 Section ten

Mr. Lei turned to the big head and said, "Xiao Chu, did such a situation happen during your survey?" The big head still shook his head: "I have no impression. It's a bit strange. I can't remember the details of many things, but I really don't have amnesia. Could it be the sequelae of being bitten by a scorpion?" Mr. Lei sighed: "Oh." I carefully observed the surrounding environment, it was almost exactly the same as when we came last time, there was nothing unusual except that the trees here were smaller than those outside. "What's the next step?" Kasongda didn't seem to want to stay here for too long.

Mr. Lei thought: "There must be something abnormal here, search carefully and pay attention to safety." Everyone searched separately.I was very puzzled why the trees here were thinner than outside, so I turned around a few small trees, and there was nothing unusual.Suddenly, I noticed something seemed to be engraved on a tree, so I hurried over to have a look. scorpion!Another damn scorpion!It was clearly engraved not long ago, and there was still a faint trace of blood seeping into the engraved picture.My mind suddenly became chaotic.I try not to think about scorpions, but I always feel that there are many scorpions crawling towards me.

I felt a little nervous, the pattern was too weird.Why do you always show me? Just as I was thinking wildly, Mr. Lei had come behind me at some point.He stretched out his hand to block my eyes: "Don't be overly attracted to something, keep your head calm!" I was suddenly awakened like a person in deep sleep, and I woke up with a jolt. "Boss Lei, this is too mysterious! Is it aimed at me?" Mr. Lei shook his head: "Only people with a careful mind can find the small differences between trees. It's not just for you, but for people like you." Mr. Lei touched the engraved picture: "I just engraved it not long ago. It's interesting. Tell me why the trees here are smaller than those in other places. Have you thought about the reason?"

I naturally couldn't figure it out: "The reason for the geomagnetic anomaly?" "Hmph," Mr. Lei disagreed, "on the surface, such an explanation is reasonable. Anomalies in the geomagnetic field will cause the direction equipment to fail, and everyone will focus on this, while ignoring other factors." "Our enemy is not an idiot. He used this method to calculate us in order to make us lose our sense of direction in this rainforest. You see, these trees are much smaller than the outside. Although the species are the same, the age of the trees is different. These small The tree I think was planted later to hide something."

"Isn't that reasonable?" I said in disbelief. "We don't need to use so many people to plant trees in the forest, right? This project is too big." Mr. Lei snorted again: "People who use psychological tactics to calculate us naturally don't have such ability, but Mr. Hei's seniors have done big projects here. The people who went in before just borrowed here to stop our progress That’s all, there’s no need to make a fuss. Go from here, and now you don’t need to look at the compass, just follow the grove. Sometimes the simple method is the most effective.”

Everyone hurriedly gathered and continued to march towards the grove.The people who went in before seemed to be very careful, and they didn't even cut off a single thorn.In some very inconspicuous places, it is only possible to see the traces of someone who has just stepped on it. We continue to move forward along the subtle traces.The road is not difficult to walk, and it is even much smoother than when we entered the woods. Finally, our eyes lit up, and what was presented in front of us turned out to be a huge swampy lake.It's just that the water was so dark that it even exuded a rotten corpse-like stench.

It is here that the footprints we follow disappear.The previous figures seem to have disappeared out of thin air here, but they did not leave clothes or other valuable traces. Da Zhang pinched his nose and said, "Fuck, what the hell is this place, why is the water so smelly?" Kasongda's expression seemed a little frightened, and he leaned over to Mr. Lei and said, "Mr. Lei, I've heard local legends that this is probably what they call the Black Dead Lake. Eight out of ten people who have been here will die unexpectedly." .It is said that there is a devil living here.”

Mr. Lei glanced at him and said, "Hehe, isn't Mr. Second Lieutenant a standard materialist? You also believe in such things?" Kasongda shrugged his eyebrows: "Of course I don't believe it. But there are indeed very few people who have seen this place with their own eyes. There must be something weird here." "Of course it's weird, but we haven't discovered it yet." Mr. Lei patted Kasongda on the shoulder, "I'm sorry to trouble you these days, Lieutenant, the closer to the answer, the more dangerous it is, I hope everyone can finish this time safely. Task."

Kasongda smiled and said: "Mr. Lei, I didn't say anything. After all, this is our job. And I came back from studying in China, and the people there are very nice. I should try my best both in public and in private." Mr. Lei nodded in satisfaction, and greeted me, Dazhang and Datou to his side. "How do you look at this place? Black water, corpse smell, a little strange. This swampy lake is not big, but I can't see any animals drinking the water. Is there something in the water?" "The water is so stinky, who would drink it?" Da Zhang pinched his nose again.

"Animals don't pay too much attention to the smell of water. But this forest is very strange. I haven't seen any wild animals since I came in." Datou obviously thought more than Dazhang. While we were discussing, one of Kasunda's black soldiers suddenly ran over.He yelled at Kasunda and talked about something, as if he had discovered something very remarkable. After listening to Kasongda, he hurried to our side and said: "Guys, my subordinates have found Mr. Chu's previous camp!" The big head was covered: "Impossible. There is no swamp around the place where I camp! How could it appear here?"

Mr. Lei stared at the big head suspiciously: "How many memories have you been cut off?" "What? Impossible! How could my memory be cut off?" The big head couldn't believe such a thing.The psychological suggestion ability that he was once proud of has never missed, and his psychological defense seems to be disintegrated at this moment. Mr. Lei quickly waved his hand: "Don't think so much. Everyone's guns are safe, go over and have a look!" All of us raised our guns and followed the black soldier towards a wood by the swampy lake.At some point, there was fog on the dark lake, and the surrounding environment also dimmed.The scorching sun that seemed to be on fire just now was actually covered by clouds at this time.Nothing seemed to bode well. Sure enough, several dark green tents appeared in the dense forest not far away.There is no doubt that the style is indeed our country. Almost two months have passed since the accident, and everything at the scene looks dilapidated.The marching pot was still on the stove, and everyone's clothes, lunch boxes and other belongings were scattered all over the place. We scoured the entire camp, but unfortunately found nothing of value.Seven or eight people just disappeared in this world, and only the scattered clothes and tools seemed to prove their existence. Mr. Lei called us to pack a tent, and at the same time arranged for Kasongda's men to guard.Take tin cans and wire cloth around the entire camp and put simple alarms on. "What's the matter with this black water lake?" Mr. Lei began to ask Datou formally. He seemed to want to restore Datou to normal state, "Xiao Chu, why don't you remember that there is such a big lake next to the camp?" The big head was sweating profusely: "Boss Lei, when we came here last time, there really wasn't such a lake. Such a thing is simply unimaginable!" "You mean this lake came out by itself?" Mr. Lei continued to ask, "It seems unreasonable for such a big lake to come out in a month, right? Also, the lunch boxes scattered all over the place and the like Didn’t the thing make a sound when it landed? Didn’t you even notice it?” "This..." Datou was speechless, "Boss Lei, do you suspect that I'm lying..." Mr. Lei stared at the big head with cold eyes and said: "I won't doubt anyone without evidence, but you have to explain something to me. What is the principle of forcibly cutting off a person's memory? The person who can do this, his What is the status of means in your industry?"
