Lin was running for his life. Finally, he could no longer hear the sound of gunshots. He ran over a hill and entered the forest on the other side. The forest was silent. The soldiers stopped chasing, and he did not know if the rest of them had run into the forest. Then, when it was dark, frightened and running, so together with the fact that they had not eaten well in the afternoon and now that they had stopped, only then did they feel a rush of hunger, and their legs felt like they were tied up with lead, too heavy to lift, and Lin was lying powerlessly in an empty spot, panting heavily. However, he knew in his heart that this forest area would definitely have a lot of poisonous creatures roaming about at night. It was not safe here.

After a while, he finally had not recovered any of his strength. Lin Zheng was startled by the rustling sound as he got up. It was very dark and he could not see anything. Lin Zheng composed himself, turning around and hiding behind a large tree to confirm the direction of the voice. Not long later, a figure ran by. Lin was about to call out, but then he realized that there must be someone chasing after him from behind. The man was panting heavily as he ran with all his might. He was about thirty meters away from Lin Zheng. Sure enough, there was something behind that person. It wasn't very tall, but it was very agile. It was jumping around like a monkey and the person in front of it was also making chirping sounds from time to time. Soon, a man and a monkey disappeared from Lin Zheng's sight, disappearing into the darkness of the night. Just as he was about to turn around and come out, he saw three more shadows flying through the air. It was very dark and he couldn't see clearly the porches of the three objects, but he was sure that the eyes of the three shadows were glowing with a green light.

"A bright moon rose up and shone through the dense forest with a weak light." "So hungry." Lin Zheng could not help but curse, "Damn it, I'm really going to die, I'm still hungry and disappointing myself." At this moment, he could only quietly listen for any movements in the surroundings. Even though there was a bright moon, the moonlight was mostly obscured by the dense forest, so the visibility was still very low.

In the forest, especially at night, it was very eerie, and the air was cold. He knew that there was a high chance of danger on the ground, and there would definitely be poisonous snakes and insects. If he were to be bitten, it was obvious that he would not be able to come up with an idea. I looked around, wondering where I was going. There were dots of fluorescent light in the distance, flickering like the legendary will-o '-the-wisp. Luckily, he saw a small tree not too far away from him. There was a thick branch on the old tree with five forks. Today, he thought, he would settle in here. He climbed up the old tree to the center of the five branches. Not bad, he could sit down by himself. He casually touched his back and sighed. Then, he put his backpack on the carriage. It seemed like he could only sit on the branch. There would definitely be ants on this tree, or caterpillars. However, he was still wearing a lot of clothes, so his clothes would definitely be better. This was a high point, and he could see very far ahead. Lin Zheng was relieved to see this. Lin Zheng looked around for a while. There was no one, no animals, meaning there was no danger. His heart was calmer.

Relieved, he climbed up a tree trunk and broke a branch. He touched the branch and found that there was no fruit. He broke off a few more branches, but there was still nothing. "How unlucky." He scolded angrily, feeling very depressed. This was definitely not a fruit tree. He broke off a few more pieces, shook them with all his might, and threw away all the bugs that could possibly exist. He took the branch back to the middle of the branch and made a small nest as he sat down. He picked up a few more leaves and put them in his mouth and chewed them. It was too astringent to eat, but I swallowed hard. Remembering the long march of the Red Army, that spirit, that energy really made him admire the ground. As he thought about it, he finally understood why. Don't chew it, swallow it whole, it really was effective. He couldn't help but narcissistically think, "Truly a genius, he's too talented." The amount of food he had was not a problem, but it was too much. That green aura made him retch a few times. Hunger is relieved, but the pain in my throat caused by the leaves, it's both good and bad.

After the picnic, he felt in his pants pocket. Crap, his cell phone had fallen off somewhere in his panic last night, so he had no choice but to look around while dozing on a branch. Finally, he could no longer open his eyes. Fatigue came over him again, and he fell asleep in the middle of a tree, breathing weakly.

He subconsciously looked around, and saw three monkey-like animals chasing a black wolf. Passing under a tree, the wild wolf was chased to the point that it was scared, it was screaming as it ran, but the three guys did not stop, nor did they notice that Lin Zheng was following the black wolf into the distance. Lin was shivering, hiding in the tree without making a sound. He looked up at the sky, and a golden light shone through the leaves. After a long while, the distant wild wolf let out a blood-curdling screech, and after a while, the three guys passed by the tree, and the wild wolf was already torn into pieces by the three guys, and was carried by them all the way through the tree. After a long while, the distant wild wolf let out a blood-curdling screech, and after a while, the three guys passed under the tree, and the wild wolf was torn to shreds by the three guys. After a long while, when he was sure that the three fellows had left, he slowly peeked his head out from the leaves and looked around. There really wasn't any more danger.

What time is it? Lin was looking up at the sun, which was shining orange through the gaps in the trees. The light wasn't too good here. Fortunately, it was morning. What should he do? He was thinking about how to get out of the forest. I looked around as I thought. It was better to go back the way we came. It was dangerous, but it was the best choice. Lin was looking at the sun again, to determine the direction. At that time, they had gone south, and the sun had been in the west in the afternoon. Now, they could just go south. Lin was gesticulating in the tree. Finally, he found his bearings and carefully crawled towards the tree.

This time Lin Zheng became smarter, he would pick any wild fruit he saw on the way. There was no big tree in the forest, and the biggest wild fruit was not even bigger than a little finger, and it was also very sour. This wild fruit is much better than the leaves. He didn't know how much time had passed, but the hunger finally abated, but he felt that something was wrong. The vegetation under the trees seemed to be too lush, and it was getting quieter and quieter, to the point that he couldn't hear the birds.

A breeze blew, bringing with it a putrid smell of animal corpses, which Lin was smelling for the first time. He did not see any carcasses of animals along the way, but he did see the skeletons of animals that did not fit into his body. He did not study the skeletons and did not recognize what animals they were, but the discovery proved that there were even more ferocious carnivores here. At this moment, a stink came, indicating that there was an animal carcass that had yet to be eaten. According to the habits of the animals, there would definitely be one or more carnivores wandering around this place. If that was the case, then Lin Zheng would be trespassing into their forbidden area, and he might be discovered or have already been discovered.

He remembered that he had not seen any animal bones when he arrived, and that he had walked so long without any reason why he had not reached the road. He looked up at the sun, which shone only a few strands through the leaves. No, this was not the morning, nor was this the way it was before. It was now afternoon.

He hurried up an old tree, and when he went back to look, his heart jumped. Not good, there was a monkey jumping in the branches behind him, coming in his direction, and the animal had found him. As he was about to climb down from the tree, he happened to glance ahead and stopped in his tracks. Through the trees, he could vaguely make out a cluster of buildings. It was not a two-storey building, but a tree farm, or a small town.

Lin was hastily sliding down from the tree when he took advantage of a broken branch on the ground. The branch was as thick as a goose egg, and as he ran, he broke off the extra branch, and in a short while, he had broken it into a long stick. He held the staff tightly in both hands, looking back at the monkey-like creature as he ran.

The animal was so fast that it was less than two hundred meters away from Lin Zheng. For safety's sake, he ran towards the village with all his might. Just as he was about to reach the edge of the forest, he saw the village through the tree trunk. At the same time, the monkey-like creature caught up with him. Lin Zheng had already made his preparations. He heard the hissing sound behind him getting closer and closer, almost reaching the back of his head. He suddenly turned around and swung the stick in his hand towards the monkey-like creature. Pa, kacha. The stick hit the monkey's right arm and broke into two. However, the monkey was also sent flying. At this moment, there was only a two foot long pole left in Lin Zheng's hand. His right hand was clenched tightly as he stared at the monkey. The monkey climbed up from the ground, its right arm hanging in front of its chest. The monkey seemed a little frightened when it saw Lin Zheng injuring it with a single blow. It let out two loud cries, clearly signalling to its accomplices. There was no reply from the forest far away. The monkey seemed to be angry, as it let out two chirps, and then it pounced towards Lin Zheng. Lin Zheng dodged to the side, and the monkey flew past Lin Zheng's clothes, only to crash head first into a big tree. He fell to the ground and twitched his body. Lin Zheng took advantage of this opportunity and took a step forward, raising the half of the stick and viciously stabbed it into the monkey's neck. Blood gushed out, but Lin Zheng was startled. The blood was not red, but black. It also had a rotten smell to it.

Lin Zheng did not have time to study this. He turned around and ran towards the edge of the forest without looking back. He had to leave this forest as soon as possible. He was afraid that there would be another one. He was very lucky this time, but the next time might not be the case.

Finally, they reached the edge of the forest. There was a road at the edge of the forest, and on both sides were tall trees. The road extended without any rules, covering the entire road below. The road was very strange, with a yellow line in the middle. Lin was standing at the edge of the forest, near here, it was grey and white, like a cement road. On the other side, it was black, like pitch. This road was built so he was at a loss for words. He walked out of the forest and stood by the cement side to see if any vehicles had passed by. If a car had passed by, he still wanted to leave. It gave him a strange feeling, as if something terrifying was going to happen. However, what he did not know was that when he stepped out of the forest, three black shadows had rushed over from the distance. They did not chase him again, but instead, they went deeper into the forest and stared at Lin Zheng.
