"What's wrong? What's wrong?" This was because Jiang Cheng had kicked his butt when he called him. If he only called him softly, he definitely wouldn't be able to wake him up. Therefore, his voice was still quite loud.
"Motherf * cker, tell me, what's going on?" Zhuge Liuyun got up and touched his butt. He touched his buttocks with his hand. It was really painful.
"She's gone," Jiang Cheng gestured to Zhuge Liuyun and told him to look at the place where Hyacinth had slept last night.
"Gone?" Zhuge Liuyun was also a little surprised. He was starting to doubt if he had seen her at all.
"I don't know, I didn't see her after I woke up." Jiang Cheng stood up and walked two steps in that direction. He looked around but couldn't find her. He was also very confused.
"She probably doesn't want to bring us out." Zhuge Liuyun said a little annoyed. From their conversation last night, he didn't really like that woman. Her personality was too strong, and he couldn't afford to offend her.
"Don't judge others behind their backs so easily," Just as Zhuge Liuyun finished speaking, Hyacinth came over with a water bottle.
"You … You went to get water?" Zhuge Liuyun looked at her and asked a little embarrassedly. After all, he had just said that she didn't want to bring him out.
"Here." Hyacinth ignored Zhuge Liuyun and directly handed the water to Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng took the water and drank a lot in one go. He was very thirsty, and he didn't know how she knew.
"Seeing that you gave me a piece of hardtack, I'll bring you out. After all, if it wasn't for me, you might have died here," she said a little proudly, as if she was purposely saying it for Zhuge Liuyun to hear. Jiang Cheng looked at her and found her a little cute.
"Thank you, thank you. We will definitely remember your great kindness." Jiang Cheng didn't dare to believe that these words came from Zhuge Liuyun's mouth. After Zhuge Liuyun finished speaking, he himself was somewhat dumbstruck.
"Stop flattering me. The way out is still a little far. Let's go. " Hyacinth said and led the way. Jiang Cheng could see that she was already very familiar with this place.
"Is there no one else here?" Jiang Cheng was a little curious. If this was the first test of the physical examination, then there should be more people here. However, he had been here for so long, and he had only seen her. He hadn't seen anyone else since then.
"There are still people here, but it's quite a big place, so the chances of encountering them aren't that high. Also, the people who go through the physical examination enter in batches. Some of them will undergo a test, while others just need to find their way out. And there's more than one such place." Hyacinth told them all the information he knew.
"Then why are there so many people coming here to fight?" Jiang Cheng couldn't understand.
"Everyone who comes here knows that the physical examination is very difficult to pass. Very few people know that the test is done in such a way. Some people want to get rich overnight, while others want to use the war to gain a higher status. The greater the temptation, the more people will come, "Hyacinth said as she walked in front. She had no idea how long she had been in this place.
"Then why is it so easy to get lost here?" This had always been the thing that made Zhuge Liuyun suspicious. Ever since he entered this place, he felt that he was always in a state of being lost. Moreover, he was unable to find a way out. Sometimes, he didn't even know that he was lost.
"This is the topography of this place. It took the people here a long time to discover this place. When you came in, you would inhale some of the smoke here, making you feel like you're almost unconscious. However, it's also because you're unconscious that you're inhaling the smoke. Without any awareness. " So that was how it was. Zhuge Liuyun finally understood. This was originally a place like this. No wonder he couldn't figure it out no matter how much he tried.
"Then, why are you here?" Jiang Cheng asked her again. He didn't understand why she would come here.
Once she said this, he could see the sadness on Hyacinth's face. Jiang Cheng could feel that she was still unwilling to say it.
"Then do you want to go out with us?" Zhuge Liuyun saw that she was a little unhappy. He didn't want to end the conversation, so he changed the topic. However, Hyacinth didn't know what to say.
They walked for a while. Ever since she asked Hyacinth that question, she didn't say anything else. She just walked forward silently. As they walked, the sky slowly became brighter.
"I'm hungry. Can I eat this?" Jiang Cheng was really not used to such an awkward atmosphere. Moreover, he was really hungry, so he asked if he could eat it.
"Don't touch that. It's poisonous." When Hyacinth heard what he said, he turned around and saw him holding a red wild fruit. This fruit was the most bewitching one here. Its color looked delicious, but it was extremely poisonous. Even touching a little of it on the skin would be fatal.
"Oh my god." Jiang Cheng was so shocked that he didn't even have time to throw it away.
"Don't touch anything here. Many of the plants here look good, but I don't even know if they are poisonous." Hyacinth looked at Jiang Cheng like he was an idiot. He wasn't a kid anymore, so he didn't need her to remind him.
Zhuge Liuyun looked helpless. Fortunately, he didn't randomly pick the fruit yesterday. He knew what he was doing. Otherwise, it would only be a matter of minutes before he died here.
"This is edible." Hyacinth pointed at a plant full of green fruits and told Jiang Cheng that it was edible.
Jiang Cheng walked forward and didn't find any red fruits on the tree. This fruit must be very sour.
Zhuge Liuyun took a look and casually picked one and put it in his mouth. He took a bite and didn't say anything for a long time.
"How does it taste?" Jiang Cheng was a little curious.
"Delicious." Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liuyun chewed it in big mouthfuls and quickly told Jiang Cheng that it was delicious.
Jiang Cheng felt a little uncomfortable in his mouth. He started to swallow his saliva, and it was the sour kind.
Hyacinth didn't wait for Jiang Cheng to eat. She picked a few at the side and ate. Jiang Cheng looked at her and didn't find anything strange.
He quietly picked one and put it in his mouth. He only took a light bite before spitting it out.
Zhuge Liuyun saw that Jiang Cheng had already eaten one. He didn't expect him to spit it out so quickly. He also spat out the one that he couldn't bear to swallow.
"This taste is really good." Jiang Cheng could feel that this was the most sour thing he had ever eaten in his life.
"How the f * ck can you eat it?" Jiang Cheng was helpless. Zhuge Liuyun wanted to trick him to eat it and even said it was so delicious.
"This is the only edible nearby. If you don't eat some, you won't know when you will get more later." Hyacinth reminded them seriously. But Jiang Cheng felt that there was a pit here. It was such a big place. Were there no other edible wild fruits?
But because he was confused about what could be eaten and what couldn't be eaten here, he could only listen to her.
The wild fruits on this tree could also fill one's stomach a little.
Jiang Cheng held back and still picked a few. They didn't look as green as before, but the sourness was still the same.
"You really can eat." Zhuge Liuyun saw Jiang Cheng eat one after another and was shocked. He saw Hyacinth secretly laughing at the side, but it wasn't very obvious.
"I'm hungry. I can't eat anything." Jiang Cheng didn't dare to bite too much. It was almost to the point of swallowing it whole. Zhuge Liuyun knew that he was most afraid of hunger, but he didn't expect it to be to this extent.
"I think I can die from the sourness here." Jiang Cheng ate a few in total. He didn't know if it could fill his stomach.
"I'm not eating anymore, I'm not eating anymore." Jiang Cheng really couldn't eat anymore. Zhuge Liuyun couldn't stand the sourness after eating two, but he still ate so much. Jiang Cheng was impressed.
"Alright, don't die from the sourness here." Hyacinth couldn't stand it anymore. He was just teasing them. If not for the fact that he could eat sour things, he might not be able to stand the taste either.
"There's still some water here. Drink it first." Hyacinth passed him the water bottle. From the looks of it, he still had quite a bit of sourness.
Jiang Cheng drank all the water and only then did his mouth feel a little better.
He sat there to rest for a while before continuing forward.
Jiang Cheng could tell that Hyacinth had used his own method to remember the way here. The way out of this place wasn't something that could be easily remembered.
"How much longer until we get out?" Zhuge Liuyun asked curiously. This place was so big, and he didn't know how long it would take for them to get out.
"Probably not long. If I can guarantee that I won't get lost, then it will be very soon." Hyacinth wasn't sure if he could get lost, so he could only rely on his own method to bring them out.
"Let's go. There should be more food ahead." Hyacinth found it funny. He was just teasing him, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Jiang Cheng was a little angry. He felt that it wasn't worth it to eat so much of this stuff just now.
"Alright, alright. Let's go. We have to get out first." Zhuge Liuyun thought about the scene just now and found it funny. To not make him too angry, it was best to let him go first.
"Let's go. There must be more food ahead." This only proved that Jiang Cheng wasn't full even after eating so much.
"Look at how scared you were just now." After just a few steps, Zhuge Liuyun started to criticize Jiang Cheng.
