I made myself the protagonist

"But having said that, this person's face is too curved. This posture is as good as going to the men's bathhouse to pick up soap!" Zhao Sicheng turned his neck, which was sore from looking up for a long time, and poked it with his elbow. Stab Wei Chongming next to him.

"ah?"

Wei Chongming was stunned for a moment and did not react. Similarly, Ling Yun, Shen Tinglan and others also looked confused. Until Zhao Sicheng tilted his buttocks and patted his buttocks, Tang Yao suddenly laughed out loud.

"Ahem, everyone's sexual orientation is free. In fact, this is normal abroad. Don't worry, I won't discriminate against you because of this." Hubert is indeed a foreigner who has lived in China for most of his life. I immediately got Zhao Sicheng’s meme.

Ren Yao's curious eyes looked back and forth at Wei Chongming and Zhao Sicheng, as if he still didn't understand.

On the contrary, Xiaolong quietly pulled him aside and said vaguely: "It's okay, the child is still young and doesn't understand normal. Next time you take a bath, stay away from that weird brother..."

Only then did the person involved belatedly understand what Zhao Sicheng meant, and his face suddenly turned red, and he said angrily to the fat man with a mean look: "Fuck you, I am a pure straight man! You are the crooked one, you It’s Bear 0!”

"You know so much, and yet you say you're not! Otherwise, every time you take a shower, you would always tell me that Brother Shen, Lingyun, and the others have such a good figure..." Zhao Sicheng backed away repeatedly, refusing to show weakness at all.

Ling Yun grabbed Wei Chongming and suppressed his laughter: "Forget it, forget it, you two are good comrades. You must love each other and don't hurt each other."

"That's a sincere compliment! Believe it or not, I will loosen the soil in your backyard tonight?"

Wei Chongming rolled up his sleeves and pretended to go up and beat him: "Brother Ling, don't stop me. It won't be easy for anyone to speak today!"

"Wei Chongming, are you stupid? Can't you tell that Ling Yun is also angry? Why did you beat me instead of him? Such double standards!" Zhao Sicheng hid behind a tree with half of his body exposed and cursed at him.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble, there are still things to do."

Although Shen Tinglan said this, there was a smile in his eyes, and he shook his head helplessly as if a parent was watching his child misbehave; even Su Li, who was supporting him from the side and seemed to be indifferent, his expression became much softer. few.

Lin Qing watched from the sidelines and felt that the team in front of him was different from those he had encountered.

In order to survive, you must follow the herd. Unless you are strong enough to fight against everyone, you will have the capital to be unique.

But even so, when it comes to team tasks like treasure hunts, individuals will still suffer. Ren Yao is a living example. If Ling Yun hadn't appeared, he would have died in Xiao Yi's hands.

Everyone knows that if you want to live, you must unite.

Whether the superiors use the threat of force to achieve absolute dominance, or they adopt a military-like strict style and require team members to obey orders, these are very common in the space.

Even in a base that has not yet elected a leader, there are still multiple forces forming a group within it. Only by uniting with other players can the probability of survival be maximized.

As for the base where he is located, the current captain has added many strict regulations on the basis of his predecessors, assigned positions, and required members to supervise each other. Anyone who violates this will be abandoned by everyone, or may be removed from the mission. I will secretly put a stumbling block in the middle and make you disappear silently.

Lin Qing has long been accustomed to these things. Although she is ostracized because of her powers, she also knows how to keep a low profile, obey the team's arrangements, and not do anything unpleasant or offend her teammates. Because of this, she Only then can we live peacefully to this day.

But among the group of people in front of them, there is no distinction between class and position. Even the captain Shen Tinglan always rushes to the front and never uses his teammates to test dangerous ideas.

They trust and support each other unconditionally, and are so united when danger comes, like a rope that is twisted together and no one can break it apart.

As for Ling Yun, he has integrated well into the team. Like Shen Tinglan, he is an important link that connects all members.

If the rational, mature and calm Shen Tinglan is the core brain of this team; then the sunny and outgoing Ling Yun is the energetic heart that continuously transports fresh blood to the body.

Lin Qing could see that everyone here liked Ling Yun very much.

Even the young man Ren Yao, who always had a stern face and seemed indifferent to everything, paid special attention to him.

Except when necessary, his eyes almost never left Ling Yun, especially when danger came. Occasionally, Ling Yun thought that the other party happened to be looking at him and smiled at him, and then Ren Yao would stiffly look away. Gu Qian

It is normal for teenagers to behave like this. After all, Ling Yun gave up the most precious freedom in the eyes of all players to help him resurrect his deceased relatives. For Ren Yao, Ling Yun's existence was the salvation that pulled him out of the mire of hell.

Lin Qing learned from Wei Chongming, Xiaolong and others that in past missions, Ling Yun had risked his own life many times and risked his life to save his companions; he had not even been stingy with stranger players with whom he was not close. own goodwill.

He is a very affectionate man who has a good reputation in the space and has made friends with many players from other bases.

In this hell full of intrigues, Ling Yun's existence is like a dazzling sun, emitting warm and bright light. Anyone who longs for salvation and freedom will be attracted by him, and under his influence, he will adopt a positive and optimistic attitude. Face all difficulties.

This kind of Ling Yun is completely different from the killer man in black, whose whole body is filled with a cold and terrifying aura, as cold as a machine.

Soon, Zhao Sicheng's voice pulled Lin Qing out of his thoughts.

Although he often makes jokes with his teammates, he is also surprisingly serious at critical moments.

Lin Qing withdrew her gaze from Ling Yun, but noticed that the girl named Tang Yao was looking at her. The other party naturally waved to her and motioned for her to come over, as if she had discovered something new here.

"Before me, loosening the soil of this tree is the first thing to do. This tree is very resentful, and there must be something underneath."

Zhao Sicheng raised the engineering shovel, thrust it into the soil near the roots of the tree, and stepped on it several times until the shovel was completely submerged in the soil.

Ling Yun and Wei Chongming came forward to take a look and found that as the shovel was inserted, the soil suddenly turned dark and moist, and an unpleasant rotten smell filled the air.

Zhao Sicheng didn't hesitate, he dug three times, five divided by two, and dug a small hole neatly.

What was exposed to everyone's sight were the criss-crossing tree roots. Some of the places cut off by the shovel looked like human beings were injured, and thick black liquid was strangely flowing out.

Hubert checked it and verified everyone's guess: it was indeed blood.

Wei Chongming swallowed and looked at his companions beside him.

"Keep digging, being careful to avoid the roots and don't damage them."

Ling Yun regained his seriousness, picked up the shovel and joined in digging the hole. Digging the hole was a big project, so everyone was busy and started working one after another.

Although Shen Tinglan's physical fitness was pretty good, he should not exercise strenuously before the wound scabbed. Su Li helped him sit on the edge of a stone not far away, put down the water and medicine, and told him to take a good rest.

Shen Tinglan was a little helpless. Since the wound on his back was still burning with pain, he no longer insisted. Instead, he listened to everyone and waited aside.

Of course, sitting dry was not his style. After a while, Shen Tinglan stood up and walked to the foot of a nearby tree. He picked up rocks and knocked on the tree trunks, as if he was studying something.

More than three hours later, everyone had dug a pit nearly one meter deep under the human face tree.

A piece of camouflage fabric gradually emerged from under the pit, which looked particularly familiar. Ling Yun accelerated his shovel speed, and within a moment, a mass of brown, tangled hair was revealed under the black soil.

With everyone's efforts, the smelly soil was soon dug up, and two corpses covered with tree roots suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

The corpses were that of a man and a woman, both of the same age, looking to be in their twenties at most.

Among them, the female corpse was less than 1.6 meters tall and looked very petite; the male corpse was thin and about 1.75 meters tall. It is worth noting that both of them were wearing the uniforms of the forest survey team.

The death state of the two bodies looked extremely tragic. The eye sockets were deeply sunken, the muscles all over the body were atrophied, and the skin and flesh were close to the bones and were dark brown. They looked like two mummies.

What is even more horrifying is that dense tree trunks are inserted throughout the corpse like conduits, and two thick tree roots penetrate the mouth of the corpse. It seems that the two people have been drained of body nutrients and become so shriveled.

Ling Yun carefully touched the roots of the tree with a shovel to confirm that there was no danger, and then stepped forward and opened one of the corpses. When he saw the backpack under the corpse, everyone's expressions changed.
