Chapter 306: Crisis on the Riverbank

In a panic, everyone rushed to the shore and fell to the ground one by one, panting like a cow.

Since coming to Elysium, everyone's cognition has been refreshed again and again, and they have also learned the ferocious face of nature again and again.

Storms and tsunamis, forest anacondas, crocolators, wolves, brown bears, spiders the size of a basin, man-eating monkeys, hundreds of millions of marching ants, piranhas, not to mention cannibals that feed on humans.

Kill every step of the way, and if you are not careful, your life will be gone.

Even modern man, armed to the teeth, can only bow down to nature in front of nature.

The surface of the water seemed to be boiling, countless piranhas shuttled wildly in the bloody water, sharp teeth tore the flesh from Mu Ping's body, and a wild feast began.

Everyone had swam for too long, and seemed to have forgotten that the waters of Elysium were more dangerous than those on the shore, and they had paid a terrible price for it.

Guo Guangming glanced back and suddenly realized a problem.

They just fired so many shots, so big a movement, it is impossible for the cannibals not to hear it, why haven't they appeared until now?

It's also weird.

"Get up! Everybody get up, take your weapons, the cannibals may be all around us. Guo Mingming hurriedly called everyone up.

Everyone picked up their weapons regardless of fatigue, everyone was soaked, their whole bodies were dripping with water, and they had been soaking in cold water for too long, and many of them were almost unsteady on their feet, their feet were constantly sifting chaff, and their upper and lower teeth were chattering.

"Where are the cannibals?" Zhang Jianjun asked.

"It's definitely not far around us, there's no way they don't know we're coming, and it's very likely that they're ambushing us nearby."

As soon as Guo Lighting said this, everyone became alert.

"It makes sense, the cannibals have a limited number of guns and bullets, and after the last encounter, I guess they don't have any weapons anymore." Chen Yaodong said.

The cannibals lost a lot of weapons in the exchange of fire with Zhang Jianjun on the beach before, and they just lost some on the platform, as well as the sneak attack on Kuka last night, when almost all of them brought guns, and there were at least a dozen weapons lost in total.

Such a huge consumption, even if they encountered the corpse of a pirate on the shore and picked up a weapon, it would be almost consumed.

If they really have enough weapons and ammunition, they can attack before everyone goes ashore.

At this time, it is obvious that there is an ambush war.

And this is exactly what everyone fears, this is the territory of cannibals, no one is more familiar with the surrounding environment than them, and sneak attack is definitely the best tactical choice.

"Where's Ye Haiyang?" Zhang Jianjun asked.

Everyone looked up, and they didn't know when Ye Haiyang had disappeared.

"Don't look at it, you can't be distracted at this time, who will go to explore the road first?" Chen Yaodong asked.

"It can't be like this, our strength is limited, one less person is one less combat power, everyone must act together, the woods are too dangerous, we go to the river, everyone walks forward together, keep a good distance, we must pay attention to the surroundings and the ground, it is very likely that there are traps." Ye Haiyang said.

His tactics were recognized by others.

The palm grove in front of you is very dense, and it is definitely not a wise choice to walk through here.

The banks of the river were full of stones and sand, and there were some huge volcanic eruption rocks like a hornet's nest, and everyone could slow down the march by taking care of the front and back, Zhang Jianjun was in charge of the breakthrough, and Guo Mingming was behind him.

As we got closer to the waterfall, the louder and louder the sound became, as if thousands of horses were rushing down from the cliff, and the powerful water rushed into a huge oval pool on the surface of the river, and the rumbling sound of the water filled the eardrums, which should have all the sounds around it.

Suddenly, Zhang Jianjun stopped, raised his hand, and everyone squatted down together.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yaodong asked.

"Look over there." Zhang Jianjun pointed to the riverbank not far away.

In the middle of the grass, a pig was feeding, its back to the crowd, wagging its tail, completely unaware of the danger.

"It's just a pig, what's wrong?"

"Neck, it has rope around its neck."

Chen Yaodong couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at it, Zhang Jianjun was right, this pig really has a rope around its neck, this is not a wild boar, but a domestic pig domesticated by cannibals, although it is different from modern pigs, its appearance is much rounder compared to wild boars.

"That's just a pig, what's wrong?"

"Behind, look at the stone behind it."

Chen Yaodong was a little speechless, when was this still grinding, but this time he also felt that something was wrong, behind the stone he saw something red, it was a red bandana for pirates!

Someone was hiding a few meters away.

"Whoosh!"

The cannibal struck first, and the man in the red turban was a shirtless man with a bow in his hand and an arrow flew over.

"Hit!"

Zhang Jianjun immediately shot back, and others opened fire one after another.

However, the cannibals did not attack on a large scale, and after firing an arrow, they did not move again, and the man with the red turban quickly disappeared into the woods.

"Stop!"

Chen Yaodong hurriedly stopped, glanced around, and felt that this picture seemed familiar.

He remembered that this was not a common routine of the guerrillas in northern Burma.

When facing the regular army, they will send a small group of troops to shoot cold guns in the dark, and after being discovered, they will immediately run away, in multiple batches, day and night, to harass the enemy, causing the enemy to be unable to rest for a long time, and finally collapse.

Of course, there is also a possibility, that is, to deliberately retreat and invite you into the urn.

"Stop fighting, ceasefire!" Chen Yaodong hurriedly stopped and said: "Don't shoot indiscriminately, they didn't even think about us fighting head-on at this time, they deliberately attacked us, consumed our manpower and bullets, and no one was allowed to shoot indiscriminately without my order." ”

"Assault? When did cannibals become so smart? Zhang Jianjun was a little speechless.

But he immediately thought of the previous battle on the seaside, the cannibals not only have open posts and secret posts, but also trenches, they have been trained by little devils, and have passed them on, and their combat effectiveness is naturally not the same.

On the edge of the treehouse, Ye Haiyang was frightened by the gunfire and hurriedly lay on the ground, he found that these treehouses were very old, obviously they had not been repaired for many years, some of them had collapsed, and the open space in front of the treehouse was also overgrown with weeds.

Overall, it's like a dilapidated gathering place abandoned by humans.

The cannibals have been retreating into the canyon for some time, and it is impossible for them to live here without repairing their houses.

Then there is only one possibility, they did not live here at all, but in the deeper part of the canyon.

The trail leading to the outside of the canyon was just on the edge of the Leaf Ocean, and many of the branches on the way had been broken, and the path went through the treehouses and into the depths of the canyon.

Just as Ye Haiyang was about to get up, he heard footsteps behind him.

When I looked back, I saw two cannibal teenagers running back from the road above with spears, and they were talking about something while running, Ye Haiyang glanced at the suspension bridge above the canyon, and couldn't help but be a little worried Xu Bingyang.

I don't know if this guy is still alive.

The two children were about twelve or thirteen years old, dark-skinned, strong, and unadorned, and although they were not very old, their bodies had matured, and they looked like adults, but the childishness on their faces revealed their real ages.

Ye Haiyang followed, and after walking for a short time, the boy stopped, and a middle-aged man came out of the woods, he lowered his voice and roared a few words, the young man's face showed a frightened expression, and he nodded again and again and quickly ran away. The middle-aged man turned around and climbed onto the tree and disappeared into the green leaves. Ye Haiyang took a closer look and found that there were also a few people hiding in the other trees on the side, all of them were holding bows and arrows in their hands, all of them were facing the river beach, waiting for the battle, and their dark backs were exposed in front of Ye Haiyang.

Depending on the situation, they are preparing to ambush Zhang Jianjun and them.

Looking at the back of the young man gradually moving away, Ye Haiyang was a little hesitant, if he left, then Zhang Jianjun and they would definitely pay the price.

If he doesn't leave, he will lose the chance to find the cannibal lair.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Haiyang gritted his teeth and got into the woods, shuttled to the bottom of the tree house, and rushed towards the direction of the young man against the cliff wall.

After passing through the treehouse community, Ye Haiyang came to the continent again, and a narrow valley mouth appeared in front of him.

The valley is no more than a few meters wide, and the only way to get in and out is a boardwalk hanging from a cliff.

The plank road is four or five meters away from the water, and the water flow becomes turbulent here because it is compressed, and there is a significant drop, so it is very difficult to swim into it head-on.

There was no one on the plank road at this time, but Ye Haiyang didn't have the courage to walk over directly, don't think about it, such a pass is definitely guarded, and he is undoubtedly a live target when he goes over like this.

Ye Haiyang quickly retreated to the tree house, the silt in the pond in front of the tree house attracted his attention, saying that the pond was more than a puddle, the soil in the fourth puddle was black and smelly, Ye Haiyang couldn't take care of these anymore, he quickly took off his clothes and smeared the mud on his body, in order to be more realistic, he simply took off his pants, and there was only one pants left on his body.

He found another spear from the treehouse, completely blackened the dagger, and tied it to the top of the spear with vines to increase the lethality of the spear.

After dressing up, Xu Bingyang's whole body was smeared, the original skin change completely became black skin, and a face was black except for the eyes that were white.

"Hey!"

A voice suddenly sounded from behind Xu Bingyang, and he turned his head slightly to find that it was the middle-aged man just now, holding a spear in his hand, and speaking a language that Ye Haiyang couldn't understand at all.

Judging from his tone, it seemed that he was questioning Xu Bingyang.

At this moment, Xu Bingyang's clothes were placed on the stone not far in front of him, and he didn't have time to hide it.

Naturally, this did not escape the eyes of the middle-aged man, and he immediately widened his eyes when he realized that something was wrong.
