Chapter 502: A blessing or a curse

"Sister, do you see that? The little bastard you said back then has grown up now, so, wait for me, one day...... I will stand in front of you and let you say to me that you need me. ”

Wang Lang, who lowered his head, let the rain wash over his whole body, and kept muttering to himself in his mouth.

A small black hand pressed on Wang Lang's shoulder, gently rubbing as if comforting.

You don't have to look back to know that it was the child he came to save before who came to comfort him.

"I'm sorry, I'm fine, don't worry, we should walk a few more kilometers to the border, then we won't be in danger, let's go back quickly, otherwise your family will be in a hurry."

Wang Lang wiped his face vigorously and wiped the rain mixed with blood spots, and then said with a smile.

After saying that, he got up and grabbed the other party's hand, and began to walk towards the west.

Back in the crowd, the originally anxious woman saw her child, immediately ran over to hug her, and then thanked Wang Lang for her kindness.

Although the child's mouth was injured, and the loss of two front teeth was still a little broken, fortunately, it had little impact on future speech, so he was completely relieved.

As for Wang Lang, after accepting the thanks, he silently walked to the side, and then sat down next to a stone pillar to rest.

Although everyone didn't know what was going on, they all had a tacit understanding and didn't bother Wang Lang.

Thankfully.

After about ten minutes, the rain gradually began to lighten, and the western horizon was glowing with a hint of gold.

Weather like this, when it rains, it rains, and when it is sunny, it is a matter of course for locals.

On the contrary, Wang Lang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, which at least means that it is impossible to have natural disasters such as floods or mudslides in a short period of time, even if there is, but after all, it is the first precipitation of the year.

Although the environment in southern Africa is not as harsh as in the north, it is also relatively dry, and this amount of rainfall, at most, will seep down in an hour or two.

Of course, in fact, it is similar to what Wang Lang thought.

Because the rainfall is not exaggerated, there is not too much water, and after more than an hour of driving, the water in the river is just below the ankles.

It's just that what makes Wang Lang a little puzzled is that although it is no longer raining in the sky, everyone's expressions are becoming more and more solemn, and they all look like they are facing a great enemy.

"What's wrong? Any questions? ”

Wang Lang walked up to Usa and asked.

"Our side is like summer all year round, and when it comes to the rainy season, many aggressive animals such as bison, hippos, crocodiles, anacondas, etc., will also migrate here, although it is relatively rare in our side, but it is not absolutely impossible."

Wu Sa first looked at Wang Lang, and then looked at the surrounding water with a vigilant face and said.

Although the river is only ankle high, it is relatively muddy, so it is not surprising that you can be scared when you can't see the bottom of the water.

It's just that unlike Usa's expression, when he heard her explanation, Wang Lang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Not only did he not worry, but he became more and more excited.

Wu Sa thought that Wang Lang was stupid by this news, so he couldn't help but start to look at Wang Lang with more and more worry.

"Is there something wrong with my face?"

Seeing that Usa had been staring at him, Wang Lang subconsciously touched his cheek and asked.

"Oh, nothing, wouldn't you be worried?"

"Worried? Why worry? If you think about it, why are there all those reptiles here? ”

Wang Lang smiled disappreciably, and then asked.

"Because of the lack of water, there are abundant aquatic plants here during the rainy season, so of course they want to stay here."

Usa looked around as a matter of course and explained.

And the eyes of the people around him were gradually attracted by the conversation between the two at this time, but it looked similar to Ussa, and he looked like he didn't know why.

"Well, you're right, but have you thought about it? Although animals can't think, they also have instincts, this big rift valley is so high, they can't fly, how did they get down? ”

Wang Lang smiled and asked again.

"This ...... I don't understand. ”

"Of course, it's down a gap." Wang Lang smiled speechlessly, and then continued: "And I believe that this gap is definitely not far from our current location, you must know that we still have a long way to go upstream here, and it is absolutely impossible for those bison hippos and the like to reach here, even if there are a few lost, it is absolutely impossible to appear every year, except for the rainy season, such a dry environment lasts for several months, and they can't live for a few months." ”

After hearing Wang Lang's analysis, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.

There was also a glimmer of hope in the expressions of despair, if they could really get out safely before the flood arrived, that was of course what everyone expected.

"But if there is such an entrance, there must be a lot of wild beasts lurking there, can we get by?"

However, Usa was quite calm, and after looking at everyone again, he couldn't help but ask a little tangled.

"You're wrong, it's not those beasts that we have to worry about now, on the contrary, sometimes people are more terrible than animals, if things really go as I thought, then we don't have to worry about beasts at all, because it is likely that before we meet them, those beasts have already been cleared by some people who want to ambush us, not to mention, don't forget that we also have weapons in our hands, and it is more than enough to deal with beasts."

Wang Lang groaned slightly, and then said directly.

Indeed, those miscellaneous pieces who are chasing and encircling them are not stupid, and if there is such an entrance, they will definitely find it earlier.

As for the beasts, if those people were going to ambush there, then for sure, those people themselves would take the initiative to "help" to clean them up.

"Okay, I see."

Ursa nodded vigorously, then clenched the rifle in his hand and said.

"Usa, look at the weapons and ammunition we have on hand, let everyone be vigilant, maybe we will be in big trouble soon."

Wang Lang took a deep breath, and then commanded to Usa.

When Usa heard this, he hurried to explain to the man with the weapon in his hand.

In this way, a group of more than 60 people continued to march quickly towards the west, although it was likely to run into big trouble, but relatively, there was more hope than no hope.

It's just that he didn't go far, but Wang Lang, who was originally leading everyone, suddenly stopped.

"Wait a minute."

Just as everyone was dragging their slightly tired bodies forward quickly, Wang Lang, who was originally walking, suddenly raised his hand, and then looked around vigilantly and said.

The people around almost subconsciously stopped, and then stood very skillfully next to the stone pillar and hidden.

After that, they all looked at Wang Lang in the rear......
