Wear it quickly, it's better to live a miserable life than to die

The wolves lingered under the tree for a day and a night before slowly leaving. The four men lay on the tree, holding onto the trunk tightly with their hands, praying that they would not fall off.

The others wanted to come down, but were stopped by Du Xiaoyan.

"Don't go down yet. Be careful that the wolves may come back."

As soon as I said that, there were sparse rustling sounds in the bushes in the distance, and a wolf that had not hidden well showed its big gray and fluffy tail.

The four of them used their limbs to hold on to the tree trunk tightly to prevent themselves from falling.

Two days have passed since we entered this strange place. The last biscuit in the bag has been eaten, and the remaining water is only the size of a bottle cap.

"I don't want to die. I haven't become the pride of the family yet." Bao Tianming hugged the tree like a koala, shouting with his eyes closed.

After another half a day, the wolves seemed to see something that frightened them and fled quickly.

When the four thought they were rescued, Feng Huacai saw a python as thick as a bucket and estimated to be several dozen meters long swimming towards them, and he screamed in fear.

"Snake, there's a snake, what should we do, Du Xiaoyan, think of a solution quickly."

In terms of intelligence, although Feng Huacai is a top student, he still believes that he is one level lower than Du Xiaoyan. When panic came, the first thing he thought of was to look at Du Xiaoyan.

Du Xiaoyan also saw it, his brows furrowed, his eyes uncontrollably filled with a hint of panic and fear.

Pythons are not wolves, and they can still survive crises by climbing trees.

Just this one python could kill them all with just one sweep of its tail.

Reality is not a movie, where you are not given enough time to escape and run away separately. But they, a few small shrimps, don't even have a chance to escape.

Just like the ordinary people in the movie, except the protagonist, serve as cannon fodder and die as the python passes by.

Du Xiaoyan couldn't think of a good solution, so she could only ask others not to move. Snakes have poor vision and are better at catching moving objects.

"Don't move, don't make any noise." Du Xiaoyan whispered to comfort his three frightened companions.

As the python gradually revealed its body, the rustling sound below resounded through the eardrums. Everyone could only hold their breath and dared not move.

The snake slid across the ground and stayed under the tree for a few seconds, scaring the four people so much that they dared not breathe.

A new winding road was built under the tree, the bushes were split in two in the middle, and the grass was pressed underneath.

After the python left, Jing Qiuyun burst into tears.

"Xiaoyan, I'm scared. Will I still be able to see my parents?"

Others had the same question. They turned their eyes to Du Xiaoyan, their faces were pale, their eyes were dull, and they were terrified.

"Xiaoyan, what should we do next? Should we continue waiting or go somewhere else?" Bao Tianming asked with a pale face.

It was obviously unrealistic to continue waiting here. Du Xiaoyan lowered his head to think, paused for a long time and said, "Let's go somewhere else. Also, do your phones still have power?"

Everyone shook their heads, "No, it ran out of power a long time ago, and the power bank is out of power."

The four of them came down from the tree trembling, their hands and feet weak, but they didn't dare to stay there for long.

After supporting each other and stumbling for a long time, Feng Huacai asked, "Have you noticed that there is something wrong with this place?"

Bao Tianming replied: "I found out. I thought you were the only one with good eyesight."

He did not forget to make a few jokes while on the way, but there was no smile in Bao Tianming's eyes, and his worry deepened.

Du Xiaoyan supported Jing Qiuyun and said, "Do you remember what it looked like when we first came in?"

Several people nodded in unison. There were low trees and a light mist. After walking for only a minute or two, the others had dispersed.

"In theory, we should be able to see other people with that kind of visibility," Feng Huacai recalled, "It was as if we suddenly came to another place, and in a blink of an eye, the others disappeared."

Jing Qiuyun continued, "I'm not a good student, and it's a bit strange. The tree we climbed required several people to hug it together. If Xiaoyan hadn't pushed me from below and you two hadn't helped me, I wouldn't have been able to climb up. But, for a tree that big, would there be bushes and grass growing underneath?"

Bao Tianming followed up with his opinion: "That's right. According to common sense, there shouldn't be anything else underneath that can compete with them for nutrients, but they exist. Also, a tree this tall and this big should be visible from a long distance. Have you seen it before?"

Shake your head, still shake your head.

Du Xiaoyan asked: "Could it be because of the fog?" She needed a reason to convince herself.

"Impossible." Feng Huacai blurted out, "Xiao Yan, it's impossible. Even if it was covered in fog, with the visibility at that time, we would have been able to see the outside. How far can we go in two minutes? It's impossible that there is no trace at all. There are other people who got lost without any signs. Do you believe it?"

"It's a bit unbelievable." Du Xiaoyan murmured with his head down, his eyes filled with worry. Perhaps what Feng Huacai said came true, and they really were not in the original time and space.

"Keep walking, look around, be safe, and try not to get lost."

Du Xiaoyan chose a direction and walked towards it.

This place was unnaturally quiet, and all sounds were infinitely amplified. There was the rustling of fallen leaves under my feet, and the sound of heavy breathing in the air.

"I can't walk anymore." Jing Qiuyun wailed and sat down under a tree. In more than two days, each of them had only drunk a few sips of water and eaten a few biscuits. Their physical strength was exhausted.

Du Xiaoyan did not reply. She stared blankly at the scene in front of her. After a while, she said stiffly, "Look ahead. Is that the tree we climbed?"

"Impossible," Bao Tianming jumped up and denied. There were only bushes and grass around the tree, nothing else.

He was stunned for a moment and pushed his glasses. "It really looks like that. Look at the traces left by the grass. Does it look like a python slithered by?"

Feng Huacai rubbed his eyes and said affirmatively: "That's it, no doubt about it."

The four of them looked at each other, unable to suppress the fear in their hearts.

Jing Qiuyun didn't want to admit it, she said in a lost voice: "We walked in a straight line. And it's not right."

She suddenly hugged Du Xiaoyan tightly, her worldview collapsed, "Xiaoyan, is this a ghost wall? I'm scared."

Du Xiaoyan was also afraid. This feeling of helplessness was so similar to when she suddenly lost her parents.

Looking at the others, Du Xiaoyan sighed, "It's not a ghost wall, but more like a fantasy method in novels, such as space fusion."

Speaking of novels, Jing Qiuyun, a fighter among poor students, has the right to speak, "It does seem that, Xiaoyan, reading novels is useful. You can learn some strange knowledge."

Jing Qiuyun was still scared and held Du Xiaoyan tightly. Feng Huacai and Bao Tianming looked at her jealously. They also wanted to hug her to comfort her frightened hearts.

"Let's go ahead and take a look."

Du Xiaoyan walked over first, and the others followed. As they walked, they looked around. The more they looked, the more shocked they were. There was no doubt that it was the same tree as before. The traces of grass, the traces of footsteps, and even the food packaging bag that Bao Tianming accidentally dropped were all exactly the same.
