Chapter 516: Counting is Counting
The headhunters in the equatorial black forest of the South Seas have practiced headhunting for generations.
Although there are various headhunting techniques that have been passed down because of different clans, all headhunting techniques have one thing in common.
Then all headhunting techniques are essentially killing techniques.
Their cultivation is basically cultivation, supplemented by some poisonous means such as poison and traps, and their style is different from that of the people in Huaxia.
The ability of the people in the door is not so much a means to subdue the opponent as a bargaining chip to sit down and negotiate.
The people in the door are to do business, and selling is the ability of the body, and since they are doing business, harmony can make money.
Because of the hostile stance on buying and selling, it is not uncommon to fight for your life, but after all, it is a minority.
Take Lin Leshan, the old leader of the Hunting Gate, as an example, his ability can be described as earth-shattering, but he basically does not kill when he works with people, and he tries not to do anything that can be solved with his mouth.
Therefore, once a conflict breaks out between the headhunter and the people in the door, then the actual combat power of the headhunter must be taken a closer look.
Especially those who have experienced and survived the headhunter war. These are all cultivators who have been killed from the sea of blood, and Lord Yama does not dare to accept them.
And in this trip, Lin Shuo's headhunting team has such a headhunter.
That's the captain of this squad, Gu Liang.
Judging by the age of his thirties, and the scars on his body, he should have gone through that headhunting war ten years ago.
This person's physical cultivation, Lin Shuo has touched the bottom, and it is weaker than Zhang Jin now, which is roughly equivalent to the level of He Yongchang and Jin Wenlan in the Red Desert.
Of course, He Yongchang is making rapid progress now, and it will not be worse than the current Zhang Jin.
But whether it is the current Zhang Jin or He Yongchang, if they really want to fight for their lives with Gu Liang, Lin Shuo feels that this Gu Liang may not have a chance.
Killing techniques, after all, are not a joke.
Judging from the large and small scars on Gu Liang's body, this person is definitely an expert in exchanging injuries for lives.
Gu Liang's Kayan clan has a population of 200,000 and more than 5,000 headhunters.
This scale, among the seven major clans of the Tiya clan, is relatively weak.
In contrast, the Iba clan with the Titan as the patriarch has a population of more than one million and 20,000 headhunters.
However, the headhunting team led by Gu Liang is definitely not weak, it can be regarded as a strong team.
This is also a common strategy of the major clans when conducting headhunting wars.
Organize a few strong teams to come out and quickly harvest the weak teams of other clans.
In this way, the casualties can quickly reach a scale, avoiding protracted tug-of-wars, and at the same time, the elite forces of the major clans can be relatively well preserved.
The team led by Gu Liang originally had a total of ten people, except for the weakest guy who was the backbone, the other headhunters were all above the seven-inch level of the hunting gate, and two were even at the nine-inch level.
Now with Lin Shuo's four "oil bottles", the overall strength of this team has undoubtedly decreased a lot on the surface.
Because Miao Chengyun, the "strongest" of the four, is barely three inches capable, and Lin Shuo and the three of them are even weaker, and their hind legs are too much to drag.
Departing from a certain gathering place of the Kayan clan in the morning, the fourteen men plunged headlong into the Black Forest.
The battlefield of the headhunting war is this large area of the Black Forest in south-central Borneo, covering an area of about 100,000 square kilometers.
The venue is actually not small, but it can't stand the number of headhunters participating in the war, there are 100,000 people.
On average, there is one headhunter in one square kilometer, and there is one headhunter team in several square kilometers, and the probability of encountering is very high.
When we first met yesterday, Gu Liang was a good talker, and he seemed to be kind and kind.
But once the headhunting war began, this person's expression and temperament changed.
His face sank like water, and his eyes lit up fiercely.
According to the script discussed last night, Lin Shuo and the four of them are going to go ahead today first, and they have to pretend to actively participate in the war and move forward bravely.
However, when Lin Shuo looked at Gu Liang's face today, he thought to himself, forget it, don't do it, it's easy to get into trouble.
Chu Hongyi is also a good observer, and he honestly follows behind Lin Shuo.
Zhang Jin saw that his uncle didn't move, so he didn't move.
Only Miao Chengyun didn't have such eyesight, so he walked to the front of the team with his head held high.
Then Gu Liang ignored him at all, and waved at the headhunters who followed him, and the headhunter team changed directions and continued to move forward.
Miao Chengyun walked a few steps in front, and when he turned his head, he found that the person behind him was gone.
Miao Gongzi was so depressed that he hurriedly followed the large army and complained to Lin Shuo: "What's wrong with Guliang?"
"This man is kind. Lin Shuo glanced at Miao Chengyun, "If it is replaced by our hunting team, and the last guy in your team runs ahead, you see if I will break your leg." ”
"No, didn't we say it last night, there has to be such a link, why don't you talk about it?"
"So you can't act. Chu Hongyi said on the side, "The script is the script, the scene is the scene, you have to adjust it according to the situation on the scene."
Look at Gu Liang's look and momentum at the moment, this is rushing to kill.
You have the ability to reason with him at this time, he can slap your head to pieces, believe it or not?"
Miao Chengyun smiled: "I really don't believe this." ”
"So you really can't act. Chu Hongyi glanced at him, "I forgot about the role at this time, now you, people can smash your head with a slap, you have to know that you are afraid of him." ”
As he spoke, Gu Liang in front of him seemed to have found some trace, made a gesture with his hand, and then his steps suddenly accelerated.
The headhunter behind him also followed quickly.
Headhunters have ability, and if they are fast, it is not ordinary fast.
When Miao Chengyun saw this situation, he was about to follow, but his shoulder was held down by Lin Shuo.
"What are you doing?" Miao Chengyun asked, turning his head.
"What are you doing?" Lin Shuo asked rhetorically.
"Keep up. ”
"We can't keep up at this point. Lin Shuo blinked.
"You've forgotten your role again. Chu Hongyi said lightly, "With the foot strength of these four people at present, they should not be able to keep up with them." ”
"That's right. Miao Chengyun patted his head, and then wondered, "But why did they suddenly speed up?"
I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary, and the last group of people is still far away.
Lin Shuo, have you found anything?"
Lin Shuo shook his head: "The group of headhunters closest to us is indeed not close three kilometers away in the northwest direction. ”
"So what are they doing here?"
"Don't you understand?" Lin Shuo said, "When we discussed what to do today last night, people were also discussing what to do with us."
Just the four of us 'laymen', we don't understand the language.
Temporarily guide us, hoping that we can cooperate with them, people are not so stupid.
If it were me, I would have adopted the same method that Guliang is using now. ”
"What's the method?" Zhang Jin asked.
"Throw us four of us with broken mouths aside, and let us talk as we go to get the enemy's attention, and they'll be in ambush around. Lin Shuo said lightly.
"So...... Are we bait?" Miao Chengyun asked.
"Not really. Lin Shuo said, "You see, in this way, our four hind legs can be regarded as playing a role."
I even suspect that when we first met this Guliang yesterday evening, they were already thinking about it.
Otherwise, you Miao Chengyun will squat down in front of you, why do people want us?"
"Makes sense. Miao Chengyun nodded, and then asked, "Then what should we do next?"
Then he walked forward heartlessly. Lin Shuo said.
Miao Chengyun pondered for a while, seemed to have something in mind, and said, "By the way, since they have used us so well, we should also repay the favor." ”
"What do you mean?" asked Lin Shuo.
"Let's bring the team into the encirclement of others, I'm the best at this. Miao Chengyun said with a smile, "Don't be idle, everyone's head is brushed." ”
"Actually, I'd love to do that too. Lin Shuo smiled and shook his head, "It's a pity that it can't." ”
"Why not?" Miao Chengyun asked.
Lin Shuo said leisurely: "First, the headhunter team here must be strong and weak, and it is difficult for us to judge the strength comparison between the two sides from a distance.
In case they can't cover us, and the enemy kills us, we are forced to fight back, which is easy to expose our strength prematurely.
Second, this is the first day of the headhunting war, so quickly and frequently engage with the enemy, Gu Liang's group of people will suffer a lot of losses, and in the end, it is estimated that there will be only a few left.
This situation is not good for us.
Although the four of us have the identity of the descendants of the Tiya tribe, it is not certain whether people believe it or not.
Even if we believe, just the four of us descendants who have left here for more than 600 years, people will definitely not allow us to hunt the beast gods on behalf of the entire Tiya clan.
The best thing is that some of them survive, and they have the majority of the numbers, that is, at least more than four.
In this way, if we follow them to hunt, it will be easier for the whole Tiya tribe to accept it.
So on this first day, the rhythm must be steady, don't let them reduce the staff.
Although we are bait, we are actually holding the rhythm.
Today, we are on an outing, and we are going to take them to perfectly avoid all the headhunters and recuperate.
Because the real battle is still to come. ”
Miao Chengyun understood and nodded: "It's just that you have a lot of ideas." ”
"But the leader. Chu Hongyi said, "It's not easy to swagger in this Black Forest, and to avoid all the headhunting teams." ”
"Whew. Miao Chengyun said, "Chu Hongyi, you really don't know how to make sycophants, you should be foolish when you shouldn't be puffing up, but you are demolishing the stage when you should be praising it now." As far as Lin Shuo's dog nose is concerned, as soon as their Lin family hears the wind and distinguishes the position, this matter will definitely not be difficult for him. ”
Chu Hongyi smiled, looked at Miao Chengyun's gaze, which was a taste of caring for the mentally handicapped, and did not speak.
Lin Shuo also smiled and shook his head.
This brother of his own, his brain is not always smart, and he doesn't know whether he is really stupid or fake.
