Chapter 232: Cooperation (National Day Explosion, Ask for Recommendation and Collection)
The flames and flames were wrapped in acrid smoke until dawn the next day, and the black mud that had been dug down by the crowd for two feet, along with the minced flesh and black water, was wiped out with the fire;
I sat down in the middle of the night as I watched the firelight almost dumbfounded, and the hideousness of the living dead before death made my stalemate nerves not ease for a long time;
I only took a few sips of the liquor that Qi Nu handed me, and to tell you the truth, the stupid look I was looking at right now was not due to fright, of course... There may be a little bit of that... But more than that, I was worried about the squad that was still alive and dead in the mysterious forest;
"You've seen the living dead like him before?" I turned to the hunters and asked;
They looked at me with good eyes, obviously not quite sure what I was asking;
"I'm grateful that you can bring him back, he's my comrade-in-arms, but I don't know why he's what he is," I said slowly, walking back into the oracle, sitting on the ground with my legs already numb, and motioning for them to sit down as I did, without restraint;
"We didn't know he was Shandan's ghost, and he wasn't ...... like that when we first rescued him," said the short-haired woman of the Hunters, who was initially frightened;
"Shandan's ghost... So, you've seen people who look exactly like him before? I leaned over to the girl and asked;
But the other party frowned slightly when he heard this, first nodded, and then shook it gently, and said: "Shanman and the Holy Maiden once told us such a person, but we have never seen it with our own eyes, and Shanman also told us not to break into the north of the island, she said that it was Shandan's killing place, there is a jungle with charming souls and black mud full of poisonous insects, and we will become like this when we enter";
I wasn't surprised that she was able to say "Sandan kills people", all of this has long been clearly described in the "Chaos Cave", and this... It is also an important reason why I am waiting for the return of the hunters;
"You hunters also have Shanman?" , I muttered in my heart that the "holy woman" in her mouth must be a hook, not the "fish ball" that relies on coercion to intimidate the upper position;
"Of course we also have Shanman, which tribe doesn't? But she died, and it was precisely because of this that the hunters were then divided into two tribes, and they fought every day for the same hunting ground......", the short-haired woman became quieter and quieter, and her eyes kept glancing at the group of hunter men and women behind her;
Needless to say, this kind of thing can be guessed, in this matriarchal clan society, Shanman usually represents all the rights and totems of a tribe, but the hunters are different from other tribes, they also have a holy woman who is said to have inherited the blood of "Li Zu", because of this, if the holy woman does not have a very great desire for power after Shanman's death... The tribes were torn apart only overnight;
Thinking back to the cute little silly girl of "Hook", I really can't combine her with the word power, maybe this is the root knot of the current situation of the hunters;
"Sandan kills people... Have any of you ever entered the land where Sandan kills? I suddenly changed my conversation and talked about the main points I was most concerned about, but my tone was still as calm as ever, and my eyes did not miss any expression on the faces of each of the dozen or so people opposite;
To my disappointment, all the hunters and men lowered their heads when they heard this, and none of them could answer my words......
"To tell you the truth, I have dozens of comrades-in-arms who are still circling in the dense forest as you said, I want you to take me in and bring them out safely, of course, I don't force you to do this, and I won't use divine power against you";
When the word "divine power" blurted out, I obviously saw that several people in the hunter clan leaned back unnaturally, and in an instant, they returned to normal again;
And the reason why I emphasize this deceptive trick is only because Lao Tzu now wants no one and nothing, and what can deter these savages a little, except for the spiritism that Yumaru did not work at that time, only my "handcuff" that can pretend to be thunder, but because there is no lead bullet, it cannot kill people;
"Sanna, we won't offend your clan, we just want to get back our holy maiden, she was taken away by the spirits while we were fighting, she should be here with Shanna, but since we came here, we haven't seen her, that's why we're here";
The short-haired little girl of the hunter said as she stepped back, and then said as she lay on her stomach;
I knew that the person they wanted from me was a "hook", and in an instant, a huge pain that pierced my heart lingered in my heart for a long time;
"I did see the man you said, but I didn't know that she was your holy woman, we called her Hook, and she was a very lovely girl";
The short-haired girl's eyes lit up when she heard my words, and almost at the same time, all the men and women of the hunter clan raised their heads violently, and their spirits were immediately extremely strong;
I even described in detail the appearance and habits of the hook, and the rules of the hunting and hunting that the hook had told me, except that "I am the man whom the hook designates";
The hunters exploded with a "buzz", and everyone threw expectant glances at me, which didn't need to be explained at all, obviously asking, "Where is she?" ”;
For this kind of expectant look, I took a sip of wine lightly with the same face, but in fact, I was quickly thinking about my plan in my heart, I was going to lie to the thirteen hunter men and women in front of me... Tell a lie that might well pit them to death;
"I want to... We must go into the woods together, your holy woman... Oh, that's what I'm talking about, the hook, and that's in that line," I said in a sincere tone, my eyes looking at everyone earnestly";
"The Holy Maiden was taken by you into the killing place of Shandan?" There was already a sturdy man in the crowd who stood up and looked at me with a wrinkled eyebrow, the tallest of the three men of the hunters;
As soon as more people stood on the spot like him, the atmosphere inside the oracle suddenly became tense, and the sound of heavy snorts filled the space of just a few meters between me and the dozen people in front of me, as if a small noise would instantly ignite this group fight, which was extremely unequal in number and ability;
"Don't disturb me to sleep!"
A childish voice came from behind me, and almost at the same moment as the voice appeared, more than a dozen people of the hunter clan seemed to have been sealed by time, and they were stunned on the spot, and everyone stared in the direction behind me in horror;
And now, I am still sitting on the ground, but I have no fear to continue to sip the white porcelain bottle in my hand and say: "If I want to save my team, I have to rely on your help; And if you want to save your holy woman, you also need my help, none of you know what it looks like there, are you willing to cooperate like this? ”;
I still have the usual smile on my face, and I believe that this smile is not mixed with any coercion in it, but is indeed full of sincerity;
