Chapter 315: Planning
Xiong Hao led a group of people to swagger straight towards the destination, which would naturally alarm many demon beasts along the way. After a while, they encountered several waves of attacks, but this group of sixteen people was overwhelming, and a few middle and low-level demon beasts were naturally not opponents.
After walking like this for a long time, they finally encountered a real threat. When passing through a quagmire, a large demon beast with a length of more than ten meters suddenly jumped out in the middle of the quagmire, it looked like a crocodile, covered in armor, and its four sharp claws were as thick as a pillar, and it could also move quickly on land. It is the Dire Crocodile, a seventh-order high-level demon beast with amazing defenses and infinite power.
As soon as the crocodile appeared, it roared and rushed towards the crowd, causing everyone to be in a hurry, and they all sacrificed their own tricks to attack the guy, but no matter whose attack it was, it could not break the scale armor on its body, but aroused its ferocity, and rushed arbitrarily, and it was in danger for a while.
At this moment, Xiong Hao, who had been watching the battle from the side, stood up, stood in front of the dinosaur, and scolded everyone: "Hmph, you are all a bunch of waste, get out of the way, don't get in the way!"
As soon as everyone saw that he was willing to come forward, they all dared to retreat to the side, leaving the battlefield to this man and a beast.
Probably because the dinosaur felt the powerful aura emanating from Xiong Hao's body, it calmed down for a while, and stared at Xiong Hao tightly with its pair of cloudy giant eyes, as if facing a great enemy.
But Xiong Hao looked relaxed, and even showed a look of disdain, so he casually stood in front of the dire crocodile with a knife on his shoulder, full of flaws.
The dinosaur crocodile finally couldn't help but start attacking, it moved its four long legs with all its strength, and rushed towards Xiong Hao with all its might, like a speeding train, overwhelming, and Xiong Hao, who was originally burly, was as thin as a toothpick in front of this behemoth, and it seemed that it would break into two pieces with a slight break.
The dinosaur rushed to Xiong Hao's approach, opened its huge jaws, and pounced on him, about to swallow him in one gulp. Seeing this scene, everyone watching the battle was terrified, and a few people even subconsciously turned their heads away and couldn't bear to look at it again.
At this moment, Xiong Hao finally took out the knife, he held the handle of the knife with both hands, raised the knife high, and slashed it heavily, like the momentum of Mount Tai's pressure, as he swung the knife, a knife gas as high as more than 20 meters erupted, slashing heavily on the mouth of the dinosaur, breaking and shattering its hardest teeth and skull.
For a while, the blood on the head of the dinosaur was like an injection, rising to the sky, spraying everywhere, as if it was raining blood, bathed in the blood of the dinosaur, Xiong Hao's face showed a smile of enjoyment, and he subconsciously licked his lips, looking unfinished.
The dire crocodile was dead, but Xiong Hao stepped forward as if he was crazy, and slashed at its still twitching body until it was completely dismembered, the cruelty was outrageous, after doing all this, he picked out a demon pill from the pile of corpses of the dire crocodile, and then showed a satisfied smile, turned his head and shouted to Chen Liqun on the side: "Liqun, come here, clean up this thing." ”
"Okay!" Chen Liqun immediately showed a happy look, nodded and stepped forward to dispose of the corpse, without the kind of integrity that Fang had just exposed when he talked to Zhan Chen.
And a few of Xiong Hao's cronies approached him at this time, and they were sycophants, and they slapped the one-eyed dragon drunk, thinking that they were invincible.
Zhan Chen silently stared at the corpses scattered on the ground by the dinosaur, and had to admit that Xiong Hao's martial arts were indeed good, if he faced him, I am afraid that he would only have the fate of being killed in seconds, maybe his phaseless golden body would definitely be able to block the attack of the Yin Yang Venerable, but it would definitely not be able to withstand Xiong Hao's full blow.
This is just a small episode on the way, but it has caused a lot of waves in everyone's hearts, and everyone is even more afraid of Xiong Hao, serving carefully along the way, and no longer dare to have any intention of escaping.
As the sun set, the team stopped to camp on a dry flat ground. Xiong Hao left a few of his cronies behind, then pointed to the ground, and instructed Zhan Chen, Zhou Ziru and the others who joined later: "You guys, clean up here, set up the tent, and I'll rest later." Then, he turned his head and said to Chen Liqun alone: "Liqun, you go to the forest to chop some firewood, and we will fire it later." ”
Chen Liqun pretended to be happy and said, "Yes! As he spoke, he ran away, and even disappeared from everyone's sight.
And all this was seen by Zhan Chen on the side, and he was secretly surprised in his heart: "I didn't expect Xiong Hao to trust this Chen Liqun so much, and he could tolerate him disappearing from his field of vision, if this Chen Liqun took the opportunity to escape, wouldn't there be nowhere to find him?"
However, it turned out that he was thinking too much, and after a while, Chen Liqun came back and brought back a pile of dry firewood.
Seeing this scene, Zhan Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was boldly guessing and analyzing in his mind, and an escape plan was gradually brewing.
It was a fine night, and everyone raised three roaring bonfires on the ground, and began to talk about barbecue around the bonfire. Among them, there were nine people in Xiong Hao's group, all of whom were his cronies, around Xiong Hao, slapping horses, drinking and having fun, and bursting into bursts of unbridled laughter from time to time.
In the morning of Zhan, Zhou Ziru and Jiang Heng also surrounded a fire, and Chen Liqun and the other four surrounded another fire, both of which were far away from Xiong Hao's gang of robbers, and the relationship was clear.
Zhou Ziru saw that Xiong Hao's group was only drinking and having fun, and his eyes were burning, so he rushed to Zhan Chen and Jiang Heng and said: "Zhan Chen, I see that those people are all drunk on eating and drinking now, and they don't put their minds on us at all, why don't we run away quietly now!"
This sentence almost made Jiang Heng jump up from the ground in fright, his face showed an extremely jealous color, and he scolded in a low voice: "Zhou Ziru, are you crazy?!" We are within their sight, if we want to escape, we will be discovered by them at once, didn't you see Xiong Hao's interests in the morning? Quickly dispel this thought!"
Zhou Ziru glanced at him with disdain and scolded, "Hmph, coward!"
At this time, Zhan Chen, who had been silent on the side, rationally analyzed: "Ziru, Brother Jiang, we must escape, we just have to come up with a foolproof strategy, because Xiong Hao is indeed stakes, and it is murderous, if we just run away directly, the chance of success is almost zero." ”
"That's it, Zhan Chen is right!" Jiang Heng hurriedly agreed.
"Brother Zhan, what should I do in your opinion? I don't want to stay with these people for a moment, otherwise I'm going crazy!" Zhou Ziru said in annoyance.
Zhan Chen silently looked at the brother who was born and died with him, and during the period of contact with him, he found that Zhou Ziru still had the shortcomings of being impulsive and impatient, which was probably because he had lived in the care of his parents and elders since he was a child, and he had a smooth journey and had never experienced strong winds and waves.
In order to comfort him, Zhan Chen said: "Ziru, don't worry, maybe I already have an idea, let me think about it again." ”
At this moment, he suddenly saw Chen Liqun standing up from his seat and coming to Xiong Hao to toast and laugh, and Xiong Hao, who has always been ferocious, laughed out loud by him, and couldn't help but think of the first time he talked to Chen Liqun, his deep hatred for Xiong Hao was overflowing, not like a fake, his heart suddenly began to liven, and he boldly guessed: "Could it be that Chen Liqun is also secretly planning something?"
"Zhan Chen, you are talking, what can you do?" Zhou Ziru, who had been waiting for a long time, finally couldn't help but urge.
Only then did Zhan Chen react, smiled mysteriously, and said, "Maybe with the help of one person, we can hope to succeed!"
"Who?" Zhou Ziru and Jiang Heng both asked curiously.
"Chen Liqun!"
After a while, Chen Liqun returned from toasting, and Zhan Chen took the opportunity to shout: "Brother Chen, come and sit with us for a while! We want to invite you to drink!"
Chen Liqun was stunned for a moment, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Zhan Chen's gourd, but he still walked over.
Zhan Chen enthusiastically asked him to sit down, pointed to Jiang Heng and Zhou Ziru, and introduced to him: "Brother Chen, I want you to introduce it, this is my brother Zhou Ziru, and this is Brother Jiang Hengjiang." Then he introduced to Zhou Ziru and Jiang Heng: "Ziru, Brother Jiang, this is Chen Liqun, whom I met in the morning." ”
After the two sides finished saluting, Chen Liqun asked, "Zhan Chen, is there anything wrong with you calling me over?"
Zhan Chen smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Brother Chen, you seem to have a good relationship with Xiong Hao's gang." ”
Chen Liqun sneered and said, "I'm just making a false deal with them, what can I do if I resist? We are not Xiong Hao's opponents, we can only have a good relationship with him first, gain his trust, and then wait for the opportunity to move!"
"Brother Chen, it seems that you have something to say, do you want to escape?" Zhan Chen said further tentatively.
Chen Liqun took a deep breath and said heavily: "Yes, we have this plan!"
He had already expected that Zhan Chen and the others had just been kidnapped into the team in the morning, and they must not have the same heart as Xiong Hao's gang, so they had no scruples when they spoke.
"Brother Chen, do you have a plan?" Zhan Chen asked anxiously.
Chen Liqun shook his head and said: "The four of us have long wanted to take the opportunity to escape from the control of this gang of gangsters, with them, ten lives are not enough, they just let us do some dangerous things, you don't know, originally there were ten of our brothers, but now six brothers have died in their hands, so no matter what, we have to gamble this time!"
"Brother Chen, I didn't expect you to tell us such an important secret as soon as I asked, why is this?
"I can't help it, there are only four of us, it's hard to get things done, if the three of you are willing to help us, we may have a better chance of escaping. Chen Liqun didn't even have the confidence to say this, the scene when Xiong Hao tore apart the seventh-order high-level demon beast - Dire Crocodile alone in the morning is still deeply engraved in his mind and vividly.
"Brother Chen, since you are willing to be honest with us, then we will spare no effort to help you. ”
At this time, Jiang Heng on the side couldn't hold back any longer, and secretly shouted: "Zhan Chen, are you crazy?!"
Zhan Chen smiled slightly and said, "Brother Jiang, you don't need to worry, we naturally won't fight with them, we have to outwit!"
"Oh, Zhan Chen, do you have a way?" everyone listened to Zhan Chen's words, their spirits were lifted, and they asked one after another.
"Of course!" Zhan Chen said confidently, and then he revealed the plan in his heart to a few people.
Chen Liqun and Zhou Ziru's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they couldn't stop nodding, and when Zhan Chen finished speaking, both of them clapped their hands and smiled: "Zhan Chen, this method is really good, if it succeeds, it will be bloodless!"
Zhan Chen was also very happy to see that his plan was approved by the two, and laughed with them.
And at this time, only Jiang Heng was hiding on the side, his face was suffering from gains and losses, uncertain, this strategy was good, but it was very dangerous, if there was a mistake, several of them would fall into a situation from which they could not recover!
