Chapter 1079 Crisis in the Night (Two Chapters in One)

“Chirping…”

A bird chirping suddenly sounded in the distance, and Wang Jing and his party heard the sound and ran away.

They saw a few small sparrows jumping around on the grass, chirping from time to time, and looked at them curiously.

These little sparrows were ordinary, not exotic animals, so Wang Jing and his party took one look at them, then looked away and ignored them.

"We are not in the wrong place, but we can't see the hill. This is a bit strange." An investigator said with a serious look.

"It will be dark soon. Our top priority now is to find a safe place to spend the night..." Another investigator emphasized.

Everyone discussed it for a while, and then unanimously looked at Wang Jing, who was silent.

"Don't think too much about the missing hill for the time being. Let's go to the place in front to settle down." Wang Jing raised her finger and pointed to the creek in the distance and said to her teammates who were looking at her.

A hundred meters away, a clear stream meanders towards the distance.

The terrain beside the creek is very flat, and the view is very broad. There are several small trees not far apart, and their branches form a large shade.

Everyone observed it and raised no objection.

Then the group of people quickly walked towards the creek a hundred meters away.

Arrived at the destination soon, the investigator did not put down his backpack immediately.

Instead, carefully explore the surroundings to see if there are any dangerous beasts hiding in the dark.

After all possible hiding places for strange beasts were checked and confirmed to be safe, everyone relaxed and placed their backpacks on the ground.

Under a few trees not far apart, Wang Jing and his team cleared some weeds to create a small area for resting.

"I'm going to collect some wood nearby."

"I'll go with you."

The two investigators stood up and left, and Wang Jing warned them.

"Don't go too far. If you encounter danger, don't stop. Come back immediately."

"Okay."

"Don't worry! There are a lot of dry wood not far ahead. , there will be no danger.”

The two investigators left the temporary camp and walked towards a bush in the distance.

On their way to the creek, they passed by the bushes and saw some dry wood hidden in the bushes.

The temperature is relatively comfortable now, but the sun will set soon and the temperature will drop sharply.

Collect dry wood in advance to make your night more comfortable.

The two investigators stopped after walking for a while, and then began to collect wood.

“Huh?”

“What’s wrong?”

"What do you think that is?"

"A lot of tomatoes."

It didn't take long for the two investigators to collect a lot of wood, and one of them suddenly saw a lot of tomatoes.

“So many tomatoes grow in this wilderness?”

“Let’s pick some and take them back.”

"Isn't this thing poisonous?"

"How can tomatoes be poisonous? You are too cautious..."

A moment later, Wang Jing saw his teammates return safe and sound, and found that not only did they A lot of wood was collected, as well as dozens of plump tomatoes.

“Where did you get these things?”

“We found a large field of wild tomatoes where we collected wood.”

"This head is quite big. It's rare for wild tomatoes to grow so big."

"I tasted it just now. It's not sour and slightly sweet." The investigator said, taking out a tomato the size of a fist. Passed it out.

Wang Jing took a tomato handed over by the other party, wiped it casually, then opened her mouth and took a bite.

The refreshing taste makes people feel comfortable. It not only tastes good, but also tastes good.

It is surprising that wild tomatoes can have such a taste and texture.

Investigator picking tomatoes and distributing tomatoes to others.

In the past few days since I came to the wilderness to perform tasks, most of the time I ate portable self-heating food.

Although portable self-heating food is not unpalatable, it can make you tired of it if you eat it often. Now that fresh tomatoes can improve your food, no one will refuse it.

"Huh..."

Blow a few breaths into the lit bonfire, and the weak flames become strong.

At this time, there was only the last trace of the sun left in the sky, and the world became dark.

Night is about to fall, and the bonfire is emitting orange-red firelight, illuminating a small area under the tree.

Wang Jing and his group sat around the campfire, eating tomatoes with relish.

The two investigators who just discovered the tomatoes put down the wood they collected, and before it got completely dark, they went there again and picked many fresh tomatoes.

There are tomatoes with excellent taste and texture to eat. The group only ate a small part of the self-heating food tonight.

"It's a pity that no fish were found in the creek. Otherwise, we could catch some fish and roast them." Someone said with a smile.

"The water in that creek is relatively shallow. Even if there are fish, they are just small fish, not enough to fill the gap between teeth..." Zhao Dongsheng said.

It was completely dark, and everyone was eating dinner and chatting, and the atmosphere was quite relaxed.

Wang Jing finished her meal and leaned against the big tree behind her with her eyes closed to relax.

Tonight she will be responsible for the vigil in the second half of the night, so she must seize the time to recharge her batteries.

"Zhao Dongsheng, you can rest there later." One of the investigators raised his finger and pointed to a corner and said to Zhao Dongsheng who was drinking water.

"Okay." Zhao Dongsheng didn't say much. He was the weakest and it was safest to follow the investigators' arrangements. Just follow them.

As time passed, the two investigators who were responsible for the night watch carefully observed the surroundings and were alert to possible dangers.

Everyone else has already rested. They got up early this morning and were on their way. To be honest, they were quite tired. Now they have time to lie down and rest. Basically, they fall asleep as soon as they close their eyes.

This is the advantage of having teammates. If someone keeps watch, others can rest assuredly.

A few hours later, the moon in the sky was obscured by clouds floating in the distance. Without the moonlight, the earth suddenly fell into darkness.

The swaying bonfire illuminated a small area under the tree, preventing darkness from covering it.

At this moment, everything around was completely quiet, with no sound of insects at all. It was so quiet that it was scary.

Suddenly, a burst of birdsong sounded.

“Chirp, chirp…”

The investigator in charge of the night watch heard the sound of birdsong and immediately looked towards the place where the sound appeared.

Under their mental perception, no psychic fluctuations were found.

Just as the two investigators were about to withdraw their mental power to explore into the distance, the chirping of birds suddenly stopped.

At this moment, a strong wind blew at the scene, the flowers, plants and trees shook violently, and there was a constant rustling sound.

“The wind is picking up.”

"Fortunately, we chose to settle under these trees, otherwise the gust of wind would have blown directly on us."

The two investigators on vigil chatted quietly to avoid disturbing other people's rest.

“Buzz…”

In the darkness, an invisible energy wave suddenly appeared.

Due to the distance, Wang Jing and his party did not notice anything unusual.

Affected by the invisible energy fluctuations, the flowers, plants and trees in the darkness grew wildly.

Not long after, the wild grass that was originally half a meter high became more than one meter tall, and the trees also grew taller. …………

Rongxi Primary School, today’s school sports meeting ended relatively late.

Due to frequent aftershocks yesterday, the campus sports meeting that day ended early.

In order to make up for the time, today's campus sports meeting was extended and several more events were competed.

The radio announced the end of today's campus sports meeting, and teachers began to arrange students to leave the sports ground.

With the experience of the previous two days, we didn’t need to spend too much energy. Everyone lined up very consciously and moved towards the school gate in an orderly manner.

Parents waiting at the school gate early looked for their children in the crowd.

When the school door opened, primary school students who couldn't wait to go home poured out.

Zhou Tongtong did not leave the school, but walked in the opposite direction, came to a bench under a big tree near the school gate and sat down.

When Xia Qing sent Zhou Tongtong to school in the morning, she said that she had something to do today and would pick her up later.

At this moment, Zhou Tongtong was sitting on the bench, her feet not touching the ground, her white calves shaking gently.

"Classmate, aren't you going home?"

A pleasant voice sounded around me, followed by a very pleasant fragrance.

Zhou Tongtong turned her head and saw a very beautiful figure.

Su Yue, who was about to leave the school, saw a student sitting alone on a bench. When passing by, she asked with concern.

"Teacher Su, my mother has something to do today and cannot come to school to pick me up right away. I am waiting for her here now." The well-behaved Zhou Tongtong replied.

Su Yue nodded, chatted with Zhou Tongtong for a few words, and then left.

A few minutes later, Zhou Tongtong saw the beautiful music teacher riding a white little sheep electric car leaving from the school gate.

"It's so boring!"

As time passed, almost all the students on campus disappeared. Zhou Tongtong looked at the sky with boredom, counting the number of clouds in the sky.

"Cuckoo..."

A few pigeons fell from the sky and landed in front of Zhou Tongtong, making a little cry.

Zhou Tongtong was bored at first, but now she suddenly saw a pigeon landing in front of her. She immediately became interested, got down from the bench, squatted down, and touched the pigeon's feathers with her little hands.

These pigeons eat and drink in the school. Although they are not very afraid of people, not everyone can touch their feathers.

At this moment, Zhou Tongtong caressed the feathers of these pigeons without any scruples, and there was no sign of any resistance from these pigeons.

"I feel like you have gained some weight." Zhou Tongtong said with a smile.

"Gu Gu..." The big fat pigeon tilted his head and looked at the little human girl in front of him.

Zhou Tongtong was chatting with a few pigeons, and the security guards patrolling in the distance looked at this scene in surprise.

“Finally cleared the level.”

When Lin Li returned home, it was still early for the meal appointment with Su Yue, so he came to the study to play games.

The sky outside has darkened, and the street lights are emitting light.

Lin Li quit the game and realized that it was getting late and he would be late if he didn't go out.

So he quickly turned off the computer, ran into the bathroom, washed his face, and then came out of the house immediately.

The street is very lively, with vehicles coming and going and an endless stream of pedestrians.

Because the place Lin Li and Su Yue agreed to eat was not very far away, he did not choose to drive there. He came out of the community and unlocked a shared bicycle on the roadside with his mobile phone.

“Fortunately I didn’t drive, otherwise I would have been stuck on the road.”

Lin Li, who was riding a shared bicycle on the road, looked at the queue in the traffic jam and said happily to himself.

The red light turned on at the intersection. At this time, Lin Li quickly stopped the bicycle.

“Didi Ling Ling...”

The mobile phone in his pocket rang. It was a call from Su Yue.

"Lin Li, have you set off?"

"Set off, on the way, I will be at your place in ten minutes."

"Be careful on the road."

"Yeah."

Under the big tree, Su Yue hung up the phone, raised her jade hand, and swept away the leaves that fell on her head.

She looked towards the horizon and found that the golden beam of light that shot straight into the sky in the distance was still there.

“This golden beam of light has existed for a really long time... I hope nothing big happens.”

.........

At the end of the street, a bicycle turned a corner and then drove quickly to the roadside in the distance.

Lin Li arrived at his destination. As soon as he stopped, a familiar voice sounded in his ears.

“You’re here!”

Turning around, I saw a slim and beautiful figure with her hands behind her back, looking at herself with a smile.

"I kept you waiting." Lin Li parked the shared bicycle and came to Su Yue.

"It's okay, I didn't wait long." Su Yue said with a smile, and then asked Lin Li if he was hungry now.

"Gululu."

Lin Li hadn't felt hungry at first, but now that Su Yue asked him, he felt hungry instantly.

It was just time for dinner, and the side effects of eating the superpower fruit came flooding in like a tidal wave.

"I'm very hungry, let's go quickly!" Lin Li pressed his left hand on his stomach and urged Su Yue.

"Eat a candy first to cushion your stomach." Su Yue took out a toffee from her pocket and handed it to Lin Li.

“Where did it come from?” Lin Li took the toffee, opened the outer packaging and stuffed it into his mouth.

“Given this to a colleague.”

“This toffee tastes good.”

"I'll ask my colleagues later which online store they bought from, and I'll buy some for you then."

"You send me the online store link, and I'll buy it myself..."

The two people walked away while chatting.

Su Yue knew that Lin Li had a big appetite now, so she gave priority to the buffet restaurant when choosing a place to eat.

Tonight they had a buffet of pickled fish, and you can add unlimited fish.

The two of them sat down at an empty table. Before the pickled fish was served in the restaurant, they went to the self-service area to get a lot of cooked food.

Lin Li devoured his dinner while Su Yue hurriedly helped him pick up the meal.

"It's him." A young couple not far away was eating. The moment they saw Lin Li, they exclaimed in unison.

They had met Lin Li and Su Yue at the buffet before.

I didn’t expect to come here to dine here today, and it’s such a coincidence that we meet again.

Lin Li noticed someone staring at him and thought to himself.

“I’ve just started eating, why are people staring at me so quickly?”

He looked up and found a young couple.

The other party was deeply impressed by Lin Li, but Lin Li did not remember the young couple.

"What are you looking at?" Su Yue came back from fetching the meal at this time. She placed a plate of sauced pork ribs on the table, then turned her head and followed Lin Li's gaze to look into the distance.
