As soon as Shen Chengfeng entered the forest, he felt that the atmosphere was wrong.
He squatted down, looked at the messy footprints on the ground, looked up at the unfathomable forest, stood up and ran in quickly.
Mo Luo held a cigarette in the corner of his mouth. He looked at Xiao Jing, whose whereabouts had been exposed, and smiled proudly, “Where is Shen Chengfeng?”
Xiao Jing looked at the members of the Battle Wing Team who were blocking her around the creek pool. She was very sure that they would not dare to come over rashly. Of course, it didn’t matter if they couldn’t come over, they could just surround and attack her with guns pointed at them without any hesitation.
Yes, they are all simulated bullets anyway. They can’t kill or injure you, but they will just hurt you to death.
Mo Luo said coldly: “It seems that Captain Shen also wants to be a hero behind the scenes this time?”
Xiao Jing shrugged helplessly and said in a provocative tone: “Don’t you think I could be bait?”
Mo Luo looked around in surprise. He said to the two snipers behind him, “You lie in ambush and shoot immediately if there is any movement.”
“Captain Mo, a group of you attacked a newcomer like me. If this gets out, I’m afraid people will laugh at you.”
“On this battlefield, there is no distinction between new recruits and veterans. Moreover, since we are all training here, we might as well seize this opportunity. It would be nice to compete on the same field and help each other out.” Mo Luo put out the cigarette butt and subconsciously walked towards Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing took a step back, remaining alert, and said, “I don’t think Captain Mo wants to compete with our Iron Eagle team.”
“Since your captain is hiding and won’t come out, of course I have to find a way to get him out first.” Mo Luo avoided the behemoth behind him and did not move forward.
Xiao Jing raised her gun and confronted Mo Luo directly. She said, “It’s a pity that you won’t be able to see him.”
After saying that, Xiao Jing pulled the trigger.
Mo Luo did not expect him to attack suddenly, and did not even look for any cover to protect himself but just opened fire in provocation.
The bullet grazed the corner of Mo Luo’s clothes and sank deeply into the trunk of the tree.
Xiao Jing fired a shot, turned around and ran, leaped and splashed into the water.
“…” All the members of the Battle Wing team were dumbfounded. Was he planning to feed the crocodile?
The crocodile swung its tail, as if it didn’t see Xiao Jing jumping in to get close to it and obediently shrank back into the water.
Mo Luo took two steps forward with the gun, but only two steps. Because he saw the crocodile sticking its head out and hurriedly stepped back.
Xiao Jing swam to the other side of the stream, squeezed the water stains off her body, and rushed into the forest without hesitation.
“Captain, what should we do now?” Qi Sheng gave up the attack.
Mo Luo waved his hand, “Go somewhere else, everyone back off.”
“Boom, boom, boom.” The sudden vibration startled everyone.
“It’s a group of wild boars.” someone shouted.
Before he finished speaking, all the members of the Battle Wing team climbed up the tree impatiently.
Shen Chengfeng stared expressionlessly at the group of wild boars attacking him, took off his gloves, and clenched his fists.
The wild boar arched its hooves and rushed over madly.
Shen Chengfeng grabbed the wild boar’s ear and used the force to jump onto the pig’s back.
“Roar.” The wild boar let out a shrill roar, struggled twice, and lay on the ground without the ability to fight.
Its entire body showed varying degrees of decay, and blood was oozing out from the corroded wounds. In just a few moments, the entire soil turned wet.
Shen Chengfeng glared at the herd of wild boars that started to attack again. He clasped his hands, circled the wild boars’ necks, and broke their necks with blood and flesh flowing.
Mo Luo, who was hiding in the tree, silently put away his gun and looked around, as if he wouldn’t feel guilty if he didn’t see anyone.
Haha, why can’t I understand why I want to provoke the Iron Eagles?
“Captain, do we have to continue the training today?” Jiang Feng swallowed. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe how bloody and brutal the scene was.
Everyone had heard the rumors about Shen Chengfeng. His body was very special and people dared not touch him, especially his hands. They seemed to be more terrifying than concentrated sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid at least would not corrode things like iron, but his hands and his body would destroy anyone or anything that touched them.
At first, they all thought it was just a joke that was spread by word of mouth.
Hahaha, now it seems like a joke, a cold joke. My back felt cold after hearing it.
“Did we leave the camp today?” Mo Luo asked.
Jiang Feng shook his head, “It seems like everyone is training in the camp as usual.”
They nodded tacitly.
After Shen Chengfeng finished dealing with the wild boars, he wiped the blood on his hands, which had already evaporated, and looked at the interlaced treetops not far away. He said coldly, “Come out.”
“Bang.” Mo Luo lost his balance and rolled down from the tree trunk.
Shen Chengfeng stood in front of him, still with that stern face. He asked, “Where’s Xiao Jing?”
Mo Luo stood up and tried his best to put on a gentle, calm, modest and friendly smile. He then said, “He ran to the other side.”
Shen Chengfeng glared at the direction he pointed, his eyes darkening, “How long has he been gone?”
“About ten minutes.”
As soon as Mo Luo’s words came out of his mouth, he just blinked his eyes, and the figure that was originally standing in front of him suddenly disappeared.
Shen Chengfeng dived into the water without looking back and swam to the other side in one breath.
The jungle was so dense that the sun couldn’t seem to penetrate, and the whole space seemed quiet and desolate.
Xiao Jing walked cautiously, holding the barrel of her gun tightly. Why did she feel that the atmosphere here was different from that on the other side?
“Huff, huff.” A rapid panting sound came from behind.
Xiao Jing turned around vigilantly, but there was nothing.
The grass was shaking slightly, and judging by the tiny frequency, it should be an animal or something.
Xiao Jing took a breath, relaxed her tense nerves a little, and climbed up the mountain.
The rocks were steep, the visibility was dim, the road surface was wet, and there were strange noises lingering from time to time.
Although she had several combat experiences, Xiao Jing couldn’t help but feel a little timid when faced with this strange danger and was hesitating whether to go back.
Just as she turned around, a monkey suddenly jumped down from the branch.
“Gugu.” The monkey pulled and pulled with nimble movements, trying to snatch the pistol from Xiao Jing’s hand.
Xiao Jing held her gun tightly, and her body was carried back a few steps by the monkey’s inertia. Finally, she leaned heavily against the stone before stopping moving.
“Cuckoo, cluck, cluck.” The monkeys came sweeping in like a rainstorm.
Xiao Jing’s expression froze and she hid in the bushes.
But her tense nerves had not yet been relieved, as a crisscross of green and black snakes appeared spitting their tongues at her.
“Ah.” Xiao Jing staggered out, losing her composure, and pulled off the black snake that was biting her arm. With a flash of the knife, the snake’s body broke into two pieces.
“Boom, boom, boom.”
Xiao Jing looked at the shaking stones on the ground in disbelief, and she almost lost her balance. She looked at the forest that started to get restless after smelling the blood, and her pupils shrank little by little. She didn’t dare to hesitate for another step and turned around and ran.
“Get down.” A familiar male voice sounded from behind Xiao Jing, and she instinctively threw herself forward.
Xiao Jing felt a person lying on top of her. The deafening sound of flapping wings lingered in her ears. Leaves were shaken off one by one and covered the two of them in the blink of an eye.
“Huff, huff, huff.”
The sound of warm breath sprayed on Xiao Jing’s neck. Her heart twitched with fear. She mustered up the courage to raise her head and looked at the huge monster that rushed out of the forest and soared in the sky. Her heart tightened and she almost screamed out.
“Let’s go.” Shen Chengfeng noticed that a group of black eagles could swoop down at any time, so he grabbed Xiao Jing’s hand, and the two of them quickly left.
Xiao Jing finally came to her senses and looked at the figure pulling her away. Suddenly, her heart, which had been hanging high, slowly fell.
The light was dim in the closed and narrow crevice of the stone, but fortunately, those big creatures could not squeeze in.
Xiao Jing leaned against the stone weakly, swallowed her saliva, and asked with a trembling voice: “What are these?”
“How did you get here?” Shen Chengfeng stared at her intently. Although he looked a little disheveled, he was glad that he had not been taken away long ago.
“Captain Mo and his men surrounded me. I had no choice but to swim over here.”
Shen Chengfeng frowned slightly, “Aren’t you afraid that crocodile will swallow you in one bite?”
“Strangely enough, it was very friendly to me this time.” Xiao Jing grinned, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth.
“…”
Xiao Jing felt a little dizzy. She shook her head, but the more she shook, the dizzier she became. She instantly lost her balance and fell down.
Shen Chengfeng subconsciously reached out to grab her falling body. After grabbing her hand, he discovered that there was some black blood on her wrist.
Xiao Jing felt her mouth dry and her heart felt like it was blocked. She felt a little uncomfortable, “Captain, is it dark?”
Shen Chengfeng was about to take off her clothes, but just as he lifted up her clothes, he stopped. He took out a dagger and tore open her sleeve. There was a whole black spot on her arm, and there was a very small, almost negligible tooth mark in the skin.
Xiao Jing leaned on his shoulder, and her body suddenly felt hot and cold.
Shen Chengfeng picked up the knife and gently pricked the small tooth mark, and thick black blood flowed out.
Her left hand was a little numb, and Xiao Jing opened her eyes vaguely. The man’s facial features came closer and closer. After he got closer, her arm felt a little painful, but afterwards, her dazed mind became much clearer.
Shen Chengfeng spat out the black blood in his mouth, and after making sure that the blood on the wound had started to turn red, he applied some ointment and poured her an antidote pill.
Xiao Jing chewed the pill in her mouth and found it tasted sweet.
Seeing her eyes fixed on the bottle, Shen Chengfeng said indifferently, “These are all snake venom serums extracted by using poison to fight poison. If you are not afraid of bleeding from all seven orifices and dying from eating too much, I can give them to you as sugar pills.”
“…” Xiao Jing withdrew her gaze.
Haha, the captain really knows how to joke.
“It’s too dangerous here. Can we walk by ourselves?” Shen Chengfeng packed up his things, gave up his weapons, and traveled light.
Xiao Jing stood up, and after taking just one step she began to sway.
Shen Chengfeng squatted down and carried her on his back without saying a word.
Xiao Jing leaned on his back and said shyly, “Captain, I can walk by myself. Maybe I was scared and my legs are a little weak.”
“That snake is a poisonous one. The remaining poison in your body is just suppressed. Avoid strenuous exercise and hold me tight.” Shen Chengfeng jumped down from the crevice of the rock.
Xiao Jing hurriedly hugged him, and looking at his facial features, her heart felt warm.
“That river is the watershed of the Saibei Mountains. I thought you couldn’t make it, but I didn’t expect that there was a loophole.”
“Captain, you seem very familiar with this place. Do you come here often?”
Shen Chengfeng stood halfway up the mountain, overlooking the huge trees that reached into the blue sky, and walked towards the stream along a secluded path.
Xiao Jing hung on his neck, and seeing that the captain did not respond, she did not ask any more questions.
“This place is suitable for exercise, but not for you.” After a while, Shen Chengfeng replied.
“With the captain’s ability, he will definitely be able to pass the level.” Xiao Jing turned her head and stared at his profile.
Shen Chengfeng glanced at Xiao Jing, who had a scheming look in her eyes, and lowered her voice, “Although I am strong, I am powerless when facing a group of beasts alone. Although my hands are corrosive, they are mortal flesh after all. If a group of tigers and wolves bite me, my skin will be torn apart.”
“So our top priority is to run?” Xiao Jing shook her head in disappointment. “At first I thought the captain came to lead me back in a sweeping attack.”
Shen Chengfeng put her down from his back, and they looked at each other face to face.
Xiao Jing turned her head away angrily, feeling a little guilty. From the look in her captain’s eyes, she saw four words: If you can do it, go ahead.
Are you really willing to let a delicate girl like me charge into battle?
Haha, you will definitely be reluctant to do so.
“Doing something knowing it’s impossible is not bravery, but stupidity.” Shen Chengfeng raised his hand and stretched it straight towards her.
Xiao Jing subconsciously shrank her neck and whispered, “I thought the captain was here, wasn’t he? In my heart, the captain is like a mountain. Even if thousands of troops come to crush you, you will remain unmoved and unfallen.”
Shen Chengfeng took the branch from her hair and said calmly, “So you act impulsively again and again? You think I’ll hold up the sky for you even if it falls?”
“Although this may sound strange, it’s true. You are the number one person I admire.” Xiao Jing smiled, her dirty face looked a little disheveled, but when she smiled innocently with her white teeth showing, she seemed particularly light and charming.
Shen Chengfeng fell silent, looking at the face close to him, his own shadow slightly rippling in her bright eyes. Her smile was different from the rough and barbaric smile of the rough men in the military camp, but it was softer than ever before, very much like the feeling of peaceful days described in novels.
Xiao Jing blinked and raised her hand to wave in front of her captain’s eyes. Seeing that he was distracted, she couldn’t help but move closer, and the distance between them became closer.
Shen Chengfeng reacted and instinctively stepped back. Standing on the steep mountainside, this small step back was like a big step in a shrunken world. His center of gravity became unstable and he lost his balance in an instant.
Xiao Jing hurriedly stretched out her hand to grab him, but she was too weak and just as she grabbed his arm she was pulled down the mountain by his inertia.
Shen Chengfeng raised his hands to protect her head, and the two of them intertwined and rolled towards the stream.
“Splash.” A big splash was made in the stream.
“Gurgle gurgle.” The crocodile was disturbed by the water surface, stared unfriendly at the other side that was beginning to boil, and swam slowly towards the stream.
“Huff, huff, huff.” Xiao Jing popped her head out of the water and felt the water temperature gradually rising. She turned around and her head hit someone heavily.
Shen Chengfeng pulled her and swam towards the stream.
Xiao Jing lay by the stream, watching the sparse sunlight shining through the gaps in the trees and falling on the surroundings, feeling a sense of pleasure of surviving a disaster.
“Captain, are we going back?” Xiao Jing’s heart was beating fast. She looked at the figure sitting beside her and asked.
Shen Chengfeng took off his wet coat, unwrapped it, and found a branch to hang it on, revealing his eight-pack abs without any hesitation.
“…” Xiao Jing hesitated whether to show off her abs to fight back. Everyone had a great figure.
“Let’s dry the clothes first.” Shen Chengfeng looked around for some dead branches and built a fire.
Xiao Jing squatted in front of the fire and said with a smile: “Captain, do you want to grill some fish?”
Shen Chengfeng’s face showed no emotion. He ruffled his hair and said, “Do you think we are here for a camping trip?”
“Even if we are training, we have to fill our stomachs first.” Xiao Jing trotted into the water again, took out the small knife she carried with her, and stared intently at the small fishes swimming leisurely underwater.
She was quick to stab the fish with her knife. The fish struggled in the water for a few times and finally gave up resisting.
Xiao Jing picked up the knife and looked at the carp she had caught with one strike. She was overjoyed and waved to the man sitting by the stream. Her face was filled with an innocent smile that was sweet, warm and beautiful.
The sun shone brightly on her wet body. Shen Chengfeng looked at the little figure walking towards him. Water splashed and water dripped down her face. Then she smiled and called softly, “Captain.”
“Yes, I’m here.” It was a natural reply, as if it had become a habit.
