"What should I do?" By this time, Hans had already regarded Zhu Yu as his backbone.

Zhu Yu thought for a while and said:

"Let's cross the river! Can you swim?"

Ran Jie and Qin Fei nodded at the same time.

Hans looked at the tributary that was more than twenty meters wide and said hesitantly:

"Although the river is not wide, it...may be quite deep. My skills are not very good."

Mira also whispered:

"My skills are not very good either..."

"Cut the branches!" This time it was Ran Jie who made the decision, "Qin Fei and I will drag you across the river!"

What was cut down were a few arms-thick branches. Zhu Yu took out ropes and tied them together, using them as rafts to provide buoyancy and for Ran Jie and Qin Fei to pull people.

Hans and Mira were not completely incapable of swimming. They could flop a few times while holding the raft, as long as they made sure not to fall.

Zhu Yu also has good water skills, but he thinks he is not as good as those two, so he just needs to be able to protect himself.

It took some effort to chop the wood, but the ants have already caught up!

"Get into the water!" Zhu Yu shouted, and several other people immediately carried the raft into the water.

The location they chose was still dozens of meters away from the fork. Although the water flow here was not as fast as the fork, it was not slow either.

But there was no time left to choose a good place further up.

The depth of the water reached his chest at the beginning, and it was estimated that it would be at least two meters further forward, with the middle position being three or four meters deep. Zhu Yu glanced around and found nothing ferocious underneath, so he urged everyone to swim quickly.

However, as soon as he swam to the middle, the water upstream started churning. Zhu Yu saw that it was a crocodile that jumped out of nowhere and bit Hans who was swimming in the water!

"careful!"

Zhu Yu took out the shovel from his backpack and chopped it into the crocodile underwater!

The shovel chopped into the crocodile, but was blocked by the thick skin. Instead, the crocodile was annoyed, and it rolled towards Zhu Yu!

Zhu Yu hurriedly dodged, but he was far less flexible underwater than on land. He could barely avoid the flesh, but his clothes were torn by the crocodile!

"Hurry up!" Ran Jie and Qin Fei wanted to come over to help, Zhu Yu shouted hurriedly.

Only by getting ashore can we escape the real danger.

This crocodile is only two meters long and is not a big threat.

Zhu Yu knew that the shovel was useless, so he put it away. With a flash of inspiration, he thought of the black dagger and immediately took it out from the space!

The crocodile had already readjusted its direction under the water, staring at Zhu Yu and pounced again!

Zhu Yu gritted his teeth and endured it. When the crocodile was about to bite him, he dodged slightly, and then stabbed the crocodile directly in the eye with his dagger!

Just like slicing tofu, the dagger pierced everything!

Zhu Yu drew out his dagger. The crocodile did not die immediately, but he knew that this man was not easy to mess with, so he swung his tail and swam slowly towards the river bank.

These people breathed a sigh of relief, quickened their pace, and soon swam to the other side.

Once ashore, everyone felt it was safe.

"Look!" Ran Jie said with a solemn expression, pointing to the other side.

Others looked over one after another and were surprised to find that the crocodile had landed on the shore but was not moving.

Obviously dead.

At this time, the group of ants had also reached the shore, discovered this "delicious food", and immediately surrounded it!

Within seven or eight minutes, only the skeleton of a crocodile weighing dozens of kilograms was left!

And that skeleton is also shrinking rapidly!

A minute later, the skeleton disappeared!

Even the blood-stained soil and blades of grass disappeared, as if the crocodile had never existed!

If this is surrounded by a swarm of ants...

How many people can imagine what the consequences will be!

At this moment, Mira screamed:

"Crossing the river! The ants have crossed the river!"

They were surprised to find that some of the ants were clever enough to use the leaves!

Some ants dragged leaves and climbed on them, while other ants dragged the leaves and threw them into the river.

But there were too many ants on the leaves, and they were quickly knocked over by the water waves, and the ants also fell into the water.

Although they won't sink to the bottom, ants can't swim, which finally made these people relieved.

However, after a while, the ant changed again!

Ant groups the size of footballs quickly formed on the other side of the river, and then quickly rushed down the river!

These ants hug each other tightly. Although the river water can occasionally wash away some ants on the periphery, there are not many!

The ants are rolling, although they are not very fast, they are rushing towards this side!

But they were too light after all, and the river water quickly rushed each ant group to the middle of the river. By this time, they had entered the main stream, and the stronger current engulfed the ant group.

What Zhu Yu expected happened!

Next, those ants formed a larger ant group, which was as big as an adult's arms!

"Let's go!" Zhu Yu knew he couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately urged these people to move on.

"Where to go?" Hans was already desperate. "They will soon find a way to cross the river and will keep chasing us... I don't want to leave, I'm too tired..."

"Let's go!" Zhu Yu thought for a while and said, "Let's walk along the river for a while. As long as we find a fallen tree that is thick enough, we can make rafts and swim across the river. Those ants will not be able to cross the river anyway."

The other people’s eyes lit up!

"Yes! As long as we can cross this big river, no matter how powerful those ants are, they won't be able to cross it!"

Ran Jie said confidently, "Don't worry, we have never been afraid of an armed swim of fifty kilometers. The river is only one or two hundred meters wide, no problem!"

Although he said this, others didn't think so!

After all, the river looks very deep, and there are many dangerous creatures in the river. Who knows if you might encounter something like a piranha?

But where can we find other solutions now?

Fortunately, there was a river that could block the ants' journey. These people stopped running and regained their strength as they walked.

Qin Fei asked the question that everyone has always wanted to ask:

"Why are the ants still chasing us after we gave that thing to them?"

"Maybe there is a smell, and we are delicious in their eyes." Zhu Yu guessed.

Everyone else looked at Mira.

Mira was a little nervous.

Zhu Yu smiled:

"Don't worry, I won't leave you alone. After all, we have lived and died together."

Ran Jie also smiled and said: "That's right, you and our comrades are almost the same. This wave is not a loss!"

After walking forward for about a kilometer, several people found a tree trunk that was about 70 to 80 centimeters in diameter and more than three meters long.

"That's it!" Zhu Yu scanned the river up and down. This time he really didn't find anything "big", so he said, "Let's just use it!"

The others didn't want to leave anymore. Zhu Yu took out his dagger and cut a flat surface on the tree and a place for people to hold on to. Ran Jie looked at it with eyes burning and asked:

"Boss, I haven't seen this dagger before. Did you dig it out?"

"Yes!" Zhu Yu handed over the dagger, "Try?"

Ran Jie cut it a few times and praised:

"It's really sharp, I don't know what material it is made of."

"It should be meteorite." Zhu Yu guessed, "Not everyone in ancient times could come up with a good material that can cut iron like mud. It's so sharp, I'm afraid only meteorite is the only one."

The simple version of the canoe was ready, and the few people didn't wait any longer. They quickly pushed the wood down the river, and then used their hands and feet to paddle towards the other side.

"What is that?" Qin Fei turned his head inadvertently and suddenly saw a black cloud approaching rapidly in the sky, and he asked immediately.

"That's... a flying ant!" Zhu Yu was startled!

Those things are obviously aimed at people like myself!

Several people suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness!

On this river, with neither the sky nor the ground, and encountering such a swarm of flying ants, isn't this looking for death?

Zhu Yu stared at the "black cloud", wondering how he could survive.
