Chapter 265: A Woman's Weakness
The hopeful crowd thought that they would be able to leave the place by boat when they arrived, but it turned out that their hopes were shattered. The so-called hope is greater, and the disappointment is greater, and now a wave of despair begins to grow in their hearts.
"Fake! look at this! Damn bastard, he got drunk and caused the ship to be wrecked. β
As the leader of the team, Jack picked up a half-empty wine bottle and threw it angrily, and the bottle fell into the river and splashed a handful of water.
Gail, who was the most emotionally unstable, turned around and grabbed Captain Bill by the collar and yelled, "This is your fox friend and dog?! is such a big drunkard?! What are we going to do now! Speak!"
Bill frowned, he felt that this woman was a little unreasonable, and it wasn't that he was drunk and crashed the ship. Besides, what qualifications do you have to accuse others, it's really a woman who doesn't understand the situation.
"Stop yelling, search for something that works. Chen Jin picked up a paper bag floating on the water, it was a pack of compressed biscuits that had not been opened, just as he was hungry.
After seeing Chen Jin's inhuman force value, he already had a certain deterrent power in the hearts of everyone, and when they heard his words, no one dared to complain anymore, and they all honestly began to look around for the remnants of the sunken ship.
Bill's cell phone was out of battery, not to mention that the others couldn't use it after being submerged, and the only hope was to find the satellite phone on his friend's ship, which was kept in a special waterproof box on each ship, and it should have been there, but they couldn't find it.
Chen Jin glanced at Jack, he had already seen the small action just now, but he didn't say anything, although he didn't know why he hid the satellite phone.
Jack, who was a thief, avoided Chen Jin's gaze with a flickering eye, he was afraid that this tough man would see something, and felt that the pistol in his pocket gave him a little sense of security.
When the last rays of the sun were about to be lost, the crew found some man-made traces by the river, and it was speculated that they were probably some primitive tribe living in this rainforest, and Chen Jin suggested going to the tribe's station for help.
Captain Bill had some concerns, he had lived in the land for many years and had heard some of the things. This primitive tribe is probably the cannibal tribe that circulates in the local area, and they are the only ones who still live in the primitive and backward rainforest.
In the end, after several discussions, it was decided to go to the headhunter's station, no matter how dangerous it was, it was much safer than being next to the river at night.
This time, Agawa picked up the captain's machete and opened the way in front, cutting off the branches and leaves that blocked the way, while Bill followed closely behind with a bag of collected items.
"Oh, my God!"
Not long after walking, Ah Chuan, who opened the road in front, screamed, and everyone hurriedly stepped forward.
In the dense vegetation, a tattered and slime-stained corpse appeared in front of everyone, and it looked like it should have died not long ago.
After careful discernment, Captain Bill's face was very ugly; "This is Stone. "Ston was his friend he had called for support, the old drunkard.
"He must have been swallowed by something and then vomited. "Crew member Kim picked up a wooden branch and stabbed the corpse, and the slime was very disgusting when he lifted it.
Hearing Kim's words, the faces of the others became very ugly, especially Gail, who wanted to pee.
"It's a python. Chen Jin's tone was very affirmative, he already understood this very familiar scene a little, although there were some discrepancies.
"Didn't you kill the python?!" Jack's voice trembled.
Chen Jin glanced at him and didn't say anything.
Captain Bill nodded, agreeing with Chen Jin's opinion, "It's the season for snakes to mate, and there is definitely more than one python of that kind, so let's hurry up and get to the place where people gather, so we can find a boat to leave this ghost place." β
"Let's go, let's go, I don't want to be here for a second. Shan was also scared to death, and she hugged Gail's arm tightly so that the two could comfort each other.
But at this time, everyone present did not have the same idea. Although Jack had a look of fear on his face, there was also a different emotion in his eyes, that is, a kind of unwillingness, unwilling to go back like this.
Their trip is an expedition and shooting, in fact, the real purpose is to find a magical plant blood orchid for the company, this orchid can effectively cure many terminal diseases if made into medicine, and after the company's research and inference, the blood orchid contains a substance that can prolong life, it can be said that as long as he gets this blood orchid, he can become a shareholder of the company and become a billionaire, and he can also enjoy high-level treatment, and get involved in the first batch of life-extending medicines, which is a super temptation that almost everyone can not resistγ
I'm not going to just leave!
Jack thought about it for a while, and began to think about how those primitive tribes could persuade everyone to continue to their destination to find Blood Lan after they found the ship.
Soon, Chen Jin and his party came to the location where the tribe was.
It's a pity that they seem to have come a step too late, the natives who live here have already left, except for the wooden houses in the village, there is nothing left, only a huge disembowelmented python corpse at the entrance of the village, which should be used as a sacrifice or something.
"Damn! These primitive people are also very fierce, and they can hunt this kind of monster. Kerr, the black guy standing behind Chen Jin, couldn't help but be stunned after seeing the body of the giant python. This kid has been by Chen Jin's side since he walked out of the wetland, and he has known how he was rescued from others, and he has already regarded Chen Jin as an idol and boss.
"What now?" asked Shan.
"What can you do, shipbuilder, are you going to spend the night here, I bet the natives here must be very aware of the habits of these pythons, and they are all leaving their homes at this time, which is already very revealing. β
Captain Bill replied angrily, and then everyone began to tidy up things and divide labor, dismantling the village houses, tying the wood together, and making a large raft, so that everyone was afraid of being attacked by crocodiles or other carnivores in the water.
After the raft was built, the exhausted people decided to take a break and set off......
"We can't go back now, the things haven't arrived yet, do we have to come for nothing?"
"You're not mistaken, Jack. Didn't you see those pythons? The location marked by the blood orchid on the map is probably the territory of these giant pythons, do you want to face those monsters? If you insist on going, I have no opinion, but you can go by yourself, I will never risk your own life. β
Far away from the rest of the camp corner, a man and a woman were arguing.
"We may not be able to meet those pythons again, and miss this opportunity to make a fortune, even if we go back safely, we can only be an ordinary company employee, what ordinary and boring days do you want to live? Don't you want to become a billionaire with a net worth of billions? Shan, this is worth our gamble. Think about it, when the time comes, we can not only become shareholders of the company and enter the upper class, but also enjoy the first batch of potions developed by the company, you know the effect of these blood orchids better than me, maybe you can keep you young forever. And, I thought of a way to keep our lives safe. β
Jack devotes himself to the wonderful prospects of success, and tries his best to confuse Shan.
Shan hesitated, although money was a little tempting to her, but it was definitely not as powerful as the words eternal youth, this was simply a big killer against women, she studied biology and knew the role of blood orchids very well.
Stay young forever!
It's a little exciting to think about it, Shan's defenses are broken by Jack.
The love of beauty is a woman's greatest weakness.
"What can be done to keep us safe? Those pythons don't communicate with us, they see us as prey. β
Shan was still a little scared, she was still worried about encountering that terrible creature again.
"Have you forgotten that among our people, there is a man who is more terrifying than a monster? Have you forgotten that the python in his hand is no better than a chicken? β
