Strange...... BaiLuoYin looked around. He is surrounded by the wilderness with moss covering the water like a piece of carpet. Yet, his position is high on the ground enclosed by low-lying mud. It did not appear to be a problem with the aircraft's malfunctioning system, but with rather good fortune, he landed on the hard ground in the swamp.

BaiLuoYin looked down, his uniform is intact. He didn't even appear to have any injuries.

Seems like it's not time to die yet.

BaiLuoYin stood up and observed the surrounding landscape. Based on his accumulated experience in the many survival fields training, besides the hard ground immediately under his foot, the whole area is surrounded by dangerous swamps. It would be treacherous to put his foot anywhere else. In order to confirm this assumption, BaiLuoYin broke a few branches from the tree behind him and use it to poke a circle in the area surrounding him. As expected, no land around him is hard.

BaiLuoYin is dumbfounded, how the fuck am I going to be able to get out of here?

Just now, he was feeling like he is God's darling, only to find out that he is actually God's pet. God's favorite thing to do is to first send him a piece of cake, and then pull him out to give him a slap!

BaiLuoYin insanely roared around the trees. The more he looked at his surroundings, the more despair it seems. Mentally, he was silently calculating the time to die.

BaiLuoYin sat on the ground. Now he could only wait for rescue.

Perhaps he was too tired, he sat for a while and fell asleep. Later, he was awakened by the cold, realizing that the sky had darkened. Surrounded by a circle of dense fog, he felt like he was in a scary scene of a horror ghost movie. Actually, BaiLuoYin was not a bit afraid. In fact, he had hope for a ghost to appear to pull him from the ground and fly him out of there.

Feeling that his mouth was a bit dry, BaiLuoYin looked around. The wetlands certainly do not lack water, but it is toxic and can't be consumed. So he decisively started digging under the roots. After digging for three hours, he started to feel the soil getting wet, he took off his shirt, wrapped it around the soil and squeezed. Water slowly dripped out.

After gulping a few mouthfuls, BaiLuoYin wiped his mouth and continue to lean against the tree to rest.

While he was staring blankly toward the sky, he suddenly sees a red flashing light. It is obviously an aircraft!!! Rescue is here!! He excitedly stood up and started to shout all over the sky. He tied the parachute's umbrella to a tree branch and made a banner as he repeatedly move around wildly.

As a result, that light hovering at low altitude, continuously lingered closely near the area.

BaiLuoYin also knew that being able to be found is extremely difficult, but he still didn't want to give up hope. After all, once this area had been searched, it is unlikely to be searched a second time. So he got two stones to try and start a fire. He use his energy to vigorously grind it together to create sparks, but because the plants around the area are too wet, he couldn't make a fire. The only dry object on his body is his flight suit, but if he lighted it on fire and the searchers still could not find him, he'd freeze to death in this swamp!

At this moment, BaiLuoYin looked up again only to see the lights getting farther and farther away.

Oh wells, BaiLuoYin decidedly gave up and sat back in his original spot.

Fortunately, the flight suit was thick enough to resist the cold. BaiLuoYin laid on the ground and continued to sleep. He used one side of the folded parachute under his body as a mat and the other side over his body like a blanket. In the end, his habitual sleeping pattern returned. The blanket that was on the bottom were bunched up to the top of his body. A gust of strong wind blew it away.
