Chapter 618: Carnivorous Monitor Lizard
The sunlight covers the jungle obliquely, and the sparse sunlight spreads on the ground, giving people a very calm feeling.
However, the presence of various snakes and insects between the trees and bushes warned them that this place was still full of dangers.
Subei used a mountain knife to cut a branch to pick up the poisonous snakes and poisonous insects around it.
At the same time, he used the mountain opener to open the way, and if he encountered any danger, he could also deal with it in close combat.
Since there are other people on this island, then shooting them to deal with the danger in the jungle will greatly increase their chances of appearing.
Now, their silent presence here is their greatest advantage.
Because, those who existed on this desert island in advance did not know the existence of Su Bei and others.
If Northern Jiangsu wants to grasp this advantage, it must act quietly.
"Let's stabilize the direction of our future survival, and then we will find out what kind of island this is. ”
Su Bei whispered.
The two of them walked around a dense jungle and stooped through the last bushes, and suddenly their eyes opened up.
Before going out, Su Bei carefully surveyed the surroundings with a telescope to check if there were any traces of human activity, or whether there were people nearby.
There is a small stream ahead, what Subei can think of, those people must be able to think of too. Only with water can you increase your chances of survival.
His eyes narrowed, and he saw charred charcoal on the stones next to the stream in front of him.
This caught his attention.
"We walked around this bush, and there were signs of human activity here. "Subei didn't dare to go out.
There have been people here, so there must be people nearby.
Jiang Linlin looked at Su Bei suspiciously, and finally Su Bei pointed at the charred charcoal with a telescope to explain, and Jiang Linlin believed it.
In fact, this is very normal, no matter what the leader of organization A does, the most important and important thing is to have his own opinions and opinions.
Su Bei carried a MAT sniper rifle and pushed aside the bushes in front of him and walked quietly.
The mountain knife has been hung on his waist. Because there may be danger ahead, he needs to protect himself with a firearm.
A pair of eyes between the oil paints, observing the surroundings without blinking, are like eagle eyes in the sky, sharp and deep.
After walking about a hundred meters, he heard the voice of talking.
Su Bei's heart was shocked, and he turned his head to make a silent gesture to Jiang Linlin, then took off the marching bag on his body and crawled forward.
"You stay here and don't move, I'll observe. Su Bei quietly instructed and crawled in front.
At this time, he carried the sniper rifle on his back and held the Golden Desert Eagle in his hand.
If there is a voice in front of him, it means that he is close to the person in front of him. Using a sniper rifle is not good for shooting, but this powerful pistol is very suitable.
He was very cautious, and with almost every step he took, he carefully looked around.
Gradually, the voice of speech approached.
There were very few bushes in front of him, so he didn't dare to keep going, but looked through the gaps between the bushes and watched carefully.
Incentrating his eyes, he observed a pile of rubble in front of him. In the open space in front of the rubble, about two people in jungle camouflage uniforms sat on rocks and roasted meat.
His eyes searched the crevices of the bushes for other clues.
Two AKs, two pistols.
His heart was silently remembered.
This is the most basic and important weapon, in addition, they also have marching equipment, but the equipment is not very complete, not as complete as that of Subei.
I think it was because I came in a hurry, or I used it halfway.
Of course, he didn't dwell on this, and got the most basic information, and he spread out the concentration that was condensed in his eyes, and gathered it on his ears.
He wanted to hear what these guys were saying.
Fortunately, these guys use English, and Northern Jiangsu has been trained in the army, and English is also one of their usual cultural courses.
So, he still probably understands.
"It's been three months since they came, and there is no trace of any wind and grass, and I don't know when it will be a head. This is the approximate meaning of a sentence heard by Subei.
It seems that they have been here for three months.
Before coming here, Subei found several corpses dressed in the same costume as these guys, found in the underground of the Mekong Temple.
He speculated that when these guys came here, they must have paid some price and died.
If you speculate in this way, Subei can probably presume that these people are Lens's group. Of course, this is only a temporary presumption, because no one knows exactly where these guys come from.
"It's much better than the old cows, at least we got here alive, not in the temple. The other had a deep voice, presumably a burly fellow.
When Su Bei heard this, he had already guessed that they were the gang of those corpses.
It's just that he didn't know if these guys came here on purpose, or if they were forced to do it like them.
"Okay, don't make a fuss, eat this seabird, and go to patrol the beach. In three months, there was only one steamer in the last month, alas!"
The thick voice continued to add.
"Don't say it, as soon as I talk about it, I will be ghosted, and I blame the water ghost, for fear that the steamer will not find us, so he even shoots us at the sky with a gun, which is good, people think of us as robbers. The more the other party talked, the more angry he became.
"So he's lying at the bottom of the sea now. The thick voice smiled coldly.
Subei did not get any substantive news.
But he had already concluded that these guys didn't seem to come here on purpose, but were forced to do so, otherwise, they wouldn't have been looking for a way to call for help during these three months.
Fortunately, they didn't come here with a purpose, and in that case, there would be much less of a threat to them.
Su Bei's heart breathed a sigh of relief. But it's just a little less, at the beginning, they had a grudge and a grudge.
He began to slowly retreat.
He didn't want to alarm these two people just yet. God knows in what formation the rest of them will match them with.
If you are rashly alarmed, then the nearby comrades-in-arms will definitely let the two of them eat guns.
Attacking the east and west is not a good strategy in the tactical formation of these gangs.
Seeing the two men in front of the gravel pile walking towards the stream to the west, he began to retreat.
The creek will eventually flow into a main river that flows into the sea at the mouth of the river.
Since the jungle here grows so luxuriantly, it must have something to do with the bad climate.
The water must have come down from the sky, which means that it is a rainy climate.
Most of the branches and rhizomes are thick and lush, like candle dragons, giving people a very thick and very primitive feeling.
Northern Jiangsu confirms that these are tropical plants.
In other words, they came to an island very close to the equator.
It is only near the equator that tropical rainforest climates can occur.
Because of the year-round rain and heat, the island has a lush ecosystem of flora and fauna.
"Let's go back the way we came, go the other way, I suspect they're in a triangular formation, or a pentagram formation, either way, we're in danger. ”
"What did you find?" Jiang Linlin asked with concern.
"They're the accomplices of those corpses. Su Bei said lightly, "You're right, they are Lens's subordinates." ”
Jiang Linlin didn't speak, but frowned.
She knew the contradiction between Subei and Lens, and if the two met, Subei would definitely be besieged by this gang.
Even if she had been the leader of Lens, where was this? This was a desert island, and Organization A couldn't have found it.
More importantly, Jiang Linlin and Northern Jiangsu no longer have the strength of ancient martial arts. She had nothing to do to suppress Lens.
Su Bei stared at Jiang Linlin.
Jiang Linlin had saved Lens's life at the beginning, otherwise she would have been killed by Subei a long time ago.
Therefore, if she takes refuge in Rens's side, she may not die, and Subei will be very dangerous.
"Let's go, let's hide. Jiang Linlin looked at Subei, "Don't worry, I'm in a gang with you." ”
After saying that, her face was a little unnatural, don't look around, pretending to be observing.
Su Bei smiled faintly: "I knew that Jiang Linlin had changed since she came out of Death Valley. ”
Jiang Linlin snorted coldly: "Don't get carried away, you are just an ordinary person now." ”
"No, I'm the Northern Eagle. Su Bei quipped.
Jiang Linlin snorted amorous and ignored Su Bei.
This touch of style made the corners of Su Bei's mouth bring a hint of smile.
The two stepped back.
After walking for about half an hour, a large mountain was laid in front of them.
There are very few mountains on the island, and there is one in front of you.
The two did not walk on the mountain road, but walked around the foot of the mountain and farther away.
Because there were people nearby, they wanted to find a place to live a little farther away.
Just halfway through, Su Bei stretched out his hand to the side and stopped Jiang Linlin behind him.
Jiang Linlin glanced at Subei suspiciously, and then carefully observed the surroundings.
Since Subei asked her to stop walking, it must be because there is danger ahead, right?
"See? Su Bei pointed at a dead branch under the big tree in front of him with a mountain opening knife.
The dead branch was noticeably thicker than the rest of the place, and it was raised.
Jiang Linlin looked over carefully and was taken aback: "Lizard, Komodo dragon." ”
There was a strange light in Su Bei's eyes: "The size is indeed huge. As carnivorous monitor lizards, they do not actively pursue their prey, but lay in ambush in advance and wait for the enemy to pass by. ”
"Let's take a detour. Jiang Linlin didn't want to alarm a lizard that could kill a buffalo.
She saw the corner of Su Bei's mouth with a smile, and said strangely: "What are you laughing at?"
"Don't you know? Where we might be now. "Northern Jiangsu had judged this place to be a tropical rainforest before, and seeing this monitor lizard at this time confirmed where they were.
"We're probably in Indonesia. Su Bei said.
"It doesn't mean that there are monitor lizards in Indonesia, but also in the Mediterranean. Jiang Linlin reminded.
"Anyway, we confirmed that we were near the equator and that it was in the Northern Hemisphere. Su Bei held the mountain knife and stared at the dead leaf in front of him.
Adult Komodo dragons have dark-brown skin, which is just right to blend with rotten dead leaves.
And the skin on their bodies is rough, there are a lot of bumps on them, there are no scales, and they do not reflect light. This characteristic is almost designed to hide sneak prey.
The monitor lizard in front of it opened its head slightly, and finally mixed with rotten dead leaves, so that the prey would not see that it had deadly saliva in its mouth.
The rest is hidden in a low place next to the tree.
The two prepare to go around.
But even on a detour, they are cautious.
Because this monitor lizard likes to forage for food two or three kilometers away from the den, they did not find a monitor lizard along the way.
So when they take a detour, they may directly encounter the den of monitor lizards, and when the time comes, it will be dangerous to accidentally encounter this kind of big guy with three or two.
They have a very sensitive sense of smell and can smell prey from thousands of kilometers away. Moreover, once sprayed by the saliva of this big guy, the germs will spread like venom throughout the body, and eventually they will die of sepsis, or wait for the monitor lizard to swallow into the stomach.
