The heroine is so cute, she quickly puts on her clothes and lies down

"Did you hear any sound?" Han Yi suddenly shuddered.

The howling wind was merciless and rushed around recklessly. Before I knew it, the weather had turned gloomy again. Looking through the cracks, I saw a few bleak dead trees standing far and near under the pale yellow sky.

Zhao Shi looked around but heard nothing.

"There's no sound. What did you hear?"

Li Jian also listened attentively. In addition to the sound of the wind, he actually heard a low "quack quack quack..."

Li Jian stood up and crawled out of the tent.

"It sounds like frogs are croaking. Is there a water source nearby?"

The water source is not easy to find. The sounds are covered by the wind and you can't hear them if you are not careful.

"It must be not close, otherwise the sound wouldn't be so faint."

"Let's go tomorrow. The water source won't just run away overnight. Let's go to sleep first."

A few people agreed to take turns to keep watch, and Zhu Yue was excluded by default.

After sleeping for a while, Han Yi, who was on guard, woke everyone up.

Han Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone was awake.

"It's raining, should we collect some rainwater?"

Li Jian nodded. "Xiao Yue, take out the buckets and other containers. Xiao Han, go get some water. Shitou, come with me to reinforce the tent. If the rain gets heavier, it won't be washed away."

"Luggage brother."

Zhu Yue followed and walked to the side, took out the bucket, and collected rainwater with Han Yue.

These people just haven't had water for a day, and hunger is greater than thirst.

No one is still rational and intends to drink rain water directly.

After a busy day, everyone sat around the iron pot, waiting for the rain water to cook.

"Is it an illusion?" Han Yi blinked. "Why do I feel like the frogs are croaking louder?"

Zhu Yue turned her head to the side. Her hearing had always been the best of her five senses. Perhaps it was the influence of her experience with cats that had left its mark on her body.

She had actually discovered this before Han Yi said it.

Just not sure yet, ready to listen a little longer.

"What does it mean when the frogs' croaking becomes louder?" Zhao Shi was slow to react and couldn't figure out what was worth saying about this.

"The possibility that the sound is getting louder is that the frogs are coming towards us... Even if that's the case, it doesn't matter, right? How dangerous can frogs be?"

Han Yi did not agree with Zhao Shi's idea, but this time she was tactful enough not to express her concerns directly.

"Wait and see if this is just our illusion. If they are really coming towards us, frogs are beneficial insects and will not attack humans for no reason."

Li Jian is very good at calming people's hearts. As soon as he said this, both Zhao Shi and Han Yi's expressions relaxed a lot.

Zhu Yue turned her head slightly and looked towards the source of the sound.

But I found that there were dense "quack quack" sounds in every direction.

The noisy, gradually approaching sounds only make people feel irritated and slightly fearful from the bottom of their hearts.

Zhao Shi no longer said that frogs were not a big deal. Even ants, if they were numerous, could kill an elephant.

They are even less different in size from frogs than from ants and elephants.

The shadow of the first frog was cast on the dim tent through the candlelight, like the beginning of some signal. The second, third, and fifth frogs appeared. In just a few minutes, the tent was already filled with shadows.

"Three hundred and one, three hundred and two..." Han Yi spoke incoherently, with his arms crossed over his chest.

Zhao Shi exhaled fiercely, "Damn, aren't they afraid of fire? Why are they surrounding the tent? This doesn't make sense."

Li Jian's movements were stiff, not as smooth as usual.

"We can't just sit there and wait for death. There are already a lot of frogs. If more of them jump onto the tent, we will all be crushed underneath and may suffocate or be bitten to death."

Zhu Yue: "This sound...may not be a frog, but a toad."

Frogs mostly jump, while toads mostly crawl. What's more obvious is that the difference between the backs of the two is more obvious.

The tent was closed after catching the rain, making it airtight.

This is also the reason why no toad can come in now.

"Whether it's frogs or toads, we can't resist them in large numbers. Xiaoyue, how much oil do you have?"

A fierce look flashed across Li Jian's eyes.

"If they don't leave, we'll put oil on fire and burn them to death."

Zhu Yue took out the rancid-smelling cooking oil from the space. "Brother Li, everything is here."

Li Jian looked at the barrel of oil and breathed a sigh of relief. "This is enough."

"We must act quickly. Each of us should prepare a torch."

Li Jian's arrangement was the best way to utilize resources, and no one had any objections.

Acting quickly, the torches were soon ready.

Zhu Yue also held one in his hand.

"I'll count to three, two, one. Open the tent and rush out together. Remember to be quick and hold on to the torches. After we rush out, run back. We all remember that road from the daytime. It's relatively safest. Meet at the dead tree we passed by."

Li Jian gave the instructions with a serious look.

The others nodded in agreement with heavy expressions.

"Okay, three, two, one, charge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jian was the first, Zhu Yue was the second, Han Yi was the third, and Zhao Shi was the last. This was the order they had originally agreed upon.

The first one who was the most dangerous and the last one who was at the back were the most dangerous. The two men volunteered to let the young Zhu Yue and Han Yi be in the middle.

However, when the tent was actually opened and we saw densely packed toads...

"Ah...who pushed me!"

Han Yi's shrill scream.

Li Jian and Zhao Shi unexpectedly used her as a shield.

The constantly surging toads jumped up and down and crawled onto Han Yi's face and body.

Under the candlelight, Zhu Yue shuddered at the scene.

The moment the door opened, she inexplicably felt a sense of malice and subconsciously shrank back very quickly.

If I guessed correctly, Li Jian and Zhao Shi had already discussed it with each other, one using Han Yi and the other using her, to avoid possible harm.

Zhu Yue thought that their performance along the way had not revealed any flaws, and even she didn't notice...

If she hadn't been reminded of the sense of crisis, she would have subconsciously dodged it.

I'm afraid her fate will be worse than Han Yi's.

Fortunately, the toad was small in size and had limited killing power. Although Han Yi's face and body were covered in blood from being bitten, his life was not in danger.

It took only a dozen seconds from the time the incident happened to the time Li Jian and Zhao Shi broke out of the encirclement.

In the blink of an eye, Zhu Yue could no longer see their shadows.

I don’t know if he ran far away and was safe, or if there were endless toads outside and he couldn’t hold on and was killed.

The moment Zhu Yue could no longer see their figures, he quickly flashed into the space.

She couldn't help but slap herself.
