Chapter 979: I was arrested
Li Fan's eyes couldn't see clearly for the time being, and he didn't have the strength to speak, so he could only wait.
It wasn't until his eyesight and physical strength gradually recovered, when the sun was setting, that Li Fan tried to say something to the hard-eyed brother next to him: "Hey, brother, can you understand me?"
The man looked to be in his thirties, Caucasian, half bald on his head, but his beard was unkempt, he raised his eyelids and glanced at Li Fan, and replied, "Oh, the strength of the medicine has passed." ”
Li Fan asked, "What kind of medicine?"
The man: "Of course it's an anesthetic, these natives use homemade blow arrows to shoot a kind of tiny thorn with something that can paralyze the body, maybe the juice of herbs, or the powder that they grind, I don't know. ”
When Li Fan heard this, he instinctively touched the back of his neck, and there were indeed two small wounds there, "When did you get the arrow...... I really didn't notice. ”
The body did not recover, and even the instinct to perceive danger decreased.
The man sighed: "It's hard to detect, it feels like being bitten by a mosquito." ”
He held out his hand, "John DeSoto, you can call me John." ”
Li Fan reluctantly raised his arm and shook his hand: "Gu Tian." ”
The situation was unknown, and he subconsciously used the previous vest.
John asked, "So, Gu Tian, you also came to explore the jungle?"
Li Fan smiled bitterly: "No, the plane crashed, what's the matter, it's an explorer?"
I don't know why, when Li Fan faced this guy named John, he always subconsciously concealed his true situation, as if he had an intuition telling him that the man in front of him could not be trusted.
John said, "Yes, but I'm sorry to say that the expedition wasn't very successful. ”
Li Fan smiled: "I guess, the compass suddenly failed at some point, and then got lost in this area?"
"It's not just the compass, man, my friends and I are an expedition of six people, equipped with all kinds of advanced equipment. ”
John's face was ugly: "But those things are ineffective when they get here, and there is a chaotic magnetic field here, which affects the most basic tools such as the compass, and in the end the only ones that can come in handy are some of the most simple electronic instruments, such as radios and the like." ”
Li Fan looked around: "There are six people, but what about the other five?"
John actually sneered, but at the same time, tears flashed in his eyes, Li Fan knew that this was not a good sign, this person might be on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Sure enough, John's answer was as eerie as his expression: "Eaten......"
Li Fan swallowed his saliva: "Crocodile?" He just tentatively asked a more reasonable speculation.
John replied, "No, it is by these natives." ”
His tone began to become hysterical: "We were ambushed by this tribe about noon the day before yesterday, and that night, Louis and Abel were dragged out, and the next night, it was the turn of the other three. ”
He raised his head, looked at Li Fan with desperate eyes and a desolate smile, and said, "Today is the third day, I think it's my turn......"
Li Fan tried to comfort him: "Cheer up, the situation is not the worst." ”
"Isn't it the worst?" John's voice suddenly rose up, but fortunately, the two natives who were in charge of guarding the cage not far away didn't seem to pay attention to the conversation between the two prisoners.
"My teammates who were born and died with me were killed alive in front of me!" John leaned in and lowered his voice, but his tone was still very manic.
"Whether it's the people who are killed or the people in the cages, they are screaming and pleading, but they don't stop at all. Will they have mercy on the pigs, cows, and sheep? Will the butcher care about the cries of food? No! It's my turn today, and maybe I'll bring it with me, who knows!
Li Fan waited for a while, and then said after the other party had calmed down: "Calm down, at least we are still alive now, and there will be a chance if we are alive." ”
John snorted coldly and leaned weakly on the cage: "It's my fault, I'm the leader of this expedition team, my teammates gave me their lives, but I killed them, I should have thought that there would be such a day, the good water person drowned, I deserve it......"
As he spoke, he began to whimper, and then began to mumble and confess, if Li Fan was not here at this moment, John might have to say this to the God he believed in.
Li Fan also basically regained consciousness at this time, moved his body a little, and felt that there was no problem with normal activities.
He visually inspected it, and the cage he was in was not small, and it could probably hold a dozen people if he squeezed it.
The wood used to build the cage was also very strong, and he knocked it with his hand a few times, estimating that even the hippopotamus would not be able to escape.
The perimeter of the cage exit is sealed by many dense rattan weaves, so that people's arms cannot be stretched out, and the jammed cage door can only be opened from the outside.
However, no matter what Li Fan said, he is also a strong person in the Dao realm, no matter how firmly the wood is rooted, it is also wood, even if he has no internal strength, he is confident that he can destroy this imprisonment with his bare hands, and then escape.
The premise is that his body has to regain some strength.
He thought for a moment, then turned to John and asked, "Didn't these savages try to resist when they took their friends out of their cages?"
"Of course I tried, but they would use anesthetics, and we couldn't hide in the cage at all, and we wouldn't be able to resist after being anesthetized. ”
Li Fan said: "So...... If you want to escape, it's best to do it now, lest they attack early......"
He touched it, and the chocolate bars on his body were still there, and the wild men didn't touch anything on him, and these chocolate bars might give him some strength.
John waved his hand indifferently: "Don't bother, even if you break your arm, the wood of this cage will not crack." ”
He has really lost hope, and the venting just now may be the last outburst.
Li Fan said helplessly: "Brother, I can't take a person who has completely lost the will to survive on the road, I have to cheer up, because it is impossible for me to escape on my back after breaking the cage." ”
John's expression changed suddenly, he stared at Li Fan's face, and felt that Li Fan didn't seem to be joking, and his little will that had not been worn out was ignited again like a spark: "Is it serious?"
