Danto looked at the wolf skin totem on the mountainside from afar, and whispered to me: "The wild man has set up the totem here to tell outsiders that this is their territory, and now this valley, as well as the two mountains next to it, are occupied by them. Little Second Master, I don't recommend continuing to walk forward, it's best to bypass the mountain on the left and enter the Luo River from the west road. ”

I immediately beckoned Li Huaishan and asked him to stop first and come over to discuss countermeasures.

Li Huaishan took out the map and looked at it and said, saying that if you go around the mountain and take the west road, you will have to pass through a quagmire, if it is fine in the dry season, but now it has just rained heavily, and the hard mud around the mud swamp may also become mud and mush, and if you are not careful, you will even sink down with your equipment, and if you detour, it will also double the journey through the Luohe circle, and if you want to get out of the Luohe circle, it will take at least two days.

I can hear that Li Huaishan made up his mind not to take a detour, but it was not easy to say it directly in front of Dantuo, so he pouted like this.

However, listening to Li Huaishan's words, Dantuo is indeed a little difficult.

Before we enter the hinterland of the Luohe Circle, we have to extend the trip, which is definitely not a good thing for us.

I straightened up and looked at the valley, the Qi field in this place was normal, but whether it was the mountains and plants, or the stones pressing on the bottom of the valley, there was a kind of gloom that made people feel uncomfortable.

Dantuo and Li Huaishan discussed for a long time without coming up with a result, and finally he turned his gaze to me and said to me: "Little second master, you have an idea." ”

I raised my hand and pointed to the totem on the mountainside and asked Danto, "Has this totem been standing here for a long time?" ”

Dan Tuo nodded: "There were decades ago, there are many valleys on the periphery of the Luohe Circle, but only now this one has set up a totem, my master said before, this totem is the first landmark of the Luohe Circle, as long as you see it, it means that you are about to enter the boundary of the river circle." ”

I said, "Is there any other way into the river circle than through the valley and the detour west?" ”

Dan Tuo shook his head helplessly: "No, there are only these two roads." ”

There are two choices, either one or two, and there is considerable danger in each option.

I had no choice but to follow my feelings.

After pondering for a moment, I raised my head again, looked at the valley road in front of me, looked at the map in Li Huaishan's hand, and finally pointed ahead: "Go straight." Those with weapons are loaded, and those without weapons are ready with magic weapons, everyone be careful. ”

Of all the people, Jin and I were the only ones who brought their guns, and the others also took out their magic weapons and headed deeper into the valley.

In order to ensure the safety of Boss Jiang, Jin Xiangqian and I sandwiched her in the middle, and the person leading the team was still Li Huaishan, and Boss Wen was in charge of the palace.

When I walked to the middle of the valley, I vaguely saw figures flashing on the mountainsides on both sides of the mountain in the field of vision of the quicksand of the Qi Sea, but when I looked up at the mountainside, I only saw the silent grass and trees, and the figures had long disappeared, and even the flowing Qi Sea could not outline their outlines.

Jin Xiangqian also found a problem, and asked me across Boss Jiang: "Do you want to fire a warning shot?" ”

I waved my hand back: "Don't fire the gun yet, let's see how it goes." ”

Now we only have two guns in our hands, which may not be able to shock the savages, but the sound of gunfire that resounds through the valley may put us in an even greater predicament.

As I went deeper, the figures that appeared on the mountainsides on both sides gradually increased, and I roughly estimated that there were about a dozen wild men lurking on the mountainside, but they only followed secretly, and they never made an official appearance, so I couldn't guess what they wanted to do for the time being.

When we were still a few hundred meters away from the valley, a tall figure suddenly straightened up from the weeds halfway up the mountainside, grabbed a bundle of dry firewood and threw it at us, and then quickly burrowed into the grass.

Li Huaishan didn't dare to stop, ignored Chai He who fell beside him, and continued to walk forward.

The savage threw firewood, did he want to replace Boss Jiang? No one picks up firewood, so I don't know how they will react.

Jin Xiangqian and I both polished our eyes, and kept scanning the bushes next to the valley, for fear that Boss Jiang would make a mistake, but Boss Jiang looked relaxed and seemed to have thought of a countermeasure.

Just as Li Huaishan walked out of the valley, turned around and waved to the people behind him, signaling everyone to speed up their pace, there was a sudden noise from a cluster of bushes beside me.

The voice was so urgent that before I could turn my gaze, a black shadow came out like lightning.

I immediately took a step sideways, blocked in front of Boss Jiang, and smashed my fist at the black shadow, but before the fist could be implemented, the shadow trembled violently and fell straight to the ground.

Boss Jiang muttered behind me, "It's really coming for me, it's disgusting." ”

I looked back at her and saw that she was holding a small bamboo tube painted pink in her hand, and she was pressing the plug on the tube tightly.

When Boss Jiang saw me looking back at her, he raised his chin at my feet: "I was poisoned by a big flower." ”

Big Flower is a ghost tarantula raised by Boss Jiang, because it is covered with blood-red spots, like a blood flower, so it is called Big Flower. When I was in the thrift store before, I had seen the big flower once, it was autumn, there was a mosquito plague in the old alley, and Boss Jiang released the big flower, which is strange, as soon as this spider was released, the mosquitoes in the old alley seemed to receive some kind of signal, and disappeared without a trace.

Later, I heard Yan Yanan say that Dahua is one of Boss Jiang's natal Gu, he grew up with Boss Jiang since he was a child, and there is an electrocardiogram between him and Boss Jiang that is difficult to explain with common sense, as long as Boss Jiang is in danger, there is no need to summon it, it will drill out of the Gu Cup by itself and save Boss Jiang from danger.

It's just that this ghost tarantula has always been a dragon with no head but no tail, I heard that Boss Jiang has been stocking it on weekdays, and he often takes it with him when he travels, but except for the autumn when there is a mosquito plague, I have never seen it.

Now, too, when I turned my head to look at my feet, I saw only the corpse of a wild man, but not the shadow of a large flower.

I crouched down, grabbed one of the wildling's arms, and flipped it all over.

Danto is right, this thing, as the locals call it "wild man", does look very similar to a chimpanzee, but the back and limbs are covered with a thick layer of black hair, and only the belly, chest, and face are hairless.

Its limbs were long, but not thin, its muscles were quite solid, its palms and feet were twice the size of a human, and its face was full of facial features, but its skin was like dehydrated oily skin, soft and covered with fine wrinkles. Due to the sudden poisoning, the wild man died before he could close his eyes, and I stared at it at this time, and its radiant eyes stared at me in a daze.

I don't know if it's because the poison is too deep, or if the savage's pupils are originally different from humans, and its pupils are a very bright red, as if someone has injected a tube full of blood with a syringe.

After glancing at the corpse of the savage, I didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to move on.

The target of the savages is Boss Jiang, it is estimated that when Boss Jiang is about to walk out of the valley, they will come out to obstruct it, Boss Wen and Dan Tuo consciously surrounded them, walking on the left and right sides of Boss Jiang respectively, Jin Xiangqian and I still sandwiched Boss Jiang one after the other, and the four of them formed an iron bucket formation with no dead ends.

Boss Yu, who was standing at the mouth of the valley, took out two spirit runes, turned to look at the valley, and looked like he was waiting for the battle.

Just when I had just walked out of the valley and Boss Jiang was still one step away from leaving the valley, the wild men hiding on the mountainside finally couldn't hold it anymore, threw off their arms one by one, and threw stones at us.

The speeding stones were all heavy and heavy, and I raised my hand to catch one, and I felt my palms numb.

Boss Wen and Dan Tuo immediately shrank up and held their backpacks above their heads to resist the large number of flying stones that were spreading like raindrops.

I blocked Boss Jiang with my back, pushed her hard, and pushed her directly out of the valley, and Li Huaishan and Boss Yu stepped forward to catch her.

Seeing that Boss Jiang was out of danger, Boss Wen and Dan Tuo also rushed out quickly with their waists hunched, the two of them just flashed past me, Jin Xiangqian also ran over with a backpack, I stepped forward with an arrow, grabbed Jin Xiangqian's belt, and pulled him back to the valley.

Boss Yu shouted at me at Taniguchi: "What are you going to do?" ”

There were stones falling behind me, I endured the pain, waved my hand at Boss Yu, and said to Jin Xiangqian: "How is the marksmanship?" ”

Jin Xiangqian was faced by me, and quickly straightened up: "It's okay." ”

The wild man stood on the mountainside, a few hundred meters away from me, and the broken pistol in my hand would definitely not hit, Jin Xiangqian had a big sniper in his hand, and the effective range far exceeded the distance between the wild man and us.

I have to say that the strength of these savages is really not ordinary, and the stones in their hands not only fly far enough, but the lethality is still first-class.

With these words, I turned to the wild man on the mountainside, raised one hand to block the oncoming stones, and looked carefully at the mountainside.

"Four at nine o'clock, kill them!"

As soon as I finished speaking, the sniper rifle was on my shoulder.

Jin Xiangqian: "The recoil is a bit big, can you bear it?" ”

I immediately responded: "No problem, shoot!" ”

As soon as I finished speaking, there was a gunshot in my ears, and if I want to talk about the recoil of this gun, it is not a bit big, just the force of the gun body grinding back, it shocked my skin and flesh.

Immediately afterwards, Jin Xiangqian fired four more shots, five bullets and four hits, and the four savages standing in the direction of nine o'clock were shot through the chest on the spot, and lay on their backs in the grass with the force of the bullets.

That is, the continuous pouring of flying stones affected Jin Xiangqian's accuracy, otherwise the first four bullets would have been enough to deal with those wild people.

When the other savages saw that their companions had been killed, they immediately panicked, and the flying stones became a lot more sparse.

I immediately shouted, "Kill a few more!" ”
