Chapter 22: Captured
It was already the second half of the night, the moonlight shone on the river, emitting a cold light, Ding Xiaocong stayed awake all night, walking through the forest, observing the movement on the other side.
Ever since he got off the boat, Scarface had been carrying the golems down the river to the depths, neither in a hurry nor slowly, never stopping, and not knowing where he was going.
Suddenly, a layer of mist poured out of the rainforest in front of him, like substance, flowing along the river to this side, Ding Xiaocong's eyes lit up, it was now!
Taking advantage of the thick fog, the guy will definitely not be able to find out, and give him a surprise attack when the time comes.
The mist overflowed this section of the river in a blink of an eye, and Ding Xiaocong immediately straightened his backpack, walked out of the dense forest, and touched towards the river. The river is only a few meters wide, and it is impossible to jump over, but the water should be waist-deep at most, and it is not a problem to wade through.
At this time, the fog is deep, and the visibility is only about two meters, and you can no longer see the other side, but you definitely can't see yourself on the other side.
As soon as he arrived at the river, when Ding Xiaocong was thinking about whether to take off his shoes, his sister Xiaolan, who had been wrapped around his arm, suddenly made a "hissing" sound at the river. Ding Xiaocong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly opened the witch's eyes to look, and this glance almost scared him to pee.
The water here seems to be calm, and the water body is not wide, but under the eyes of the witch, I saw that the water was crowded with giant beasts, motionless!
As if waking up the sleeping beasts, as soon as the witch eye looked down, all the giant beasts under the water opened their eyes and looked at them one after another without emotion. Ding Xiaocong's soul was scattered, and he ran back with his legs, panicking.
As soon as he started, the surface of the water was like a boiling pot, and countless crocodiles rushed to the shore and chased after him with their mouths wide open.
Ding Xiaocong glanced back as he ran, his head was numb with fright, fortunately my sister reminded me just now that if I got into the water in a daze, I would die so much that I couldn't even have bones left.
Fortunately, the crocodiles could not run fast on the shore, and after chasing them for a while, they gave up one after another and turned around and burrowed back into the river.
Even running frightened, as soon as he ran into the forest, Ding Xiaocong panted and collapsed on the ground, looking at the other side of the river in a daze. Now that the fog was so thick that he couldn't see what was going on the other side, he was very uneasy.
There is no need to think about crossing the river, Ding Xiaocong just sat and waited until dawn, the sun came out, the fog dissipated, and the most feared situation appeared, and the scarface and child puppets on the other side were all gone.
He has been tracking for so long, dozens of miles deep into the rainforest, and he is definitely unwilling to give up, and now he can only try to cross the river, and then look for clues to continue the tracking. There were one or two hundred people in that team, and after they walked by, they would inevitably leave a lot of traces.
After running along the river for a while, a large tree fell on the surface of the river in front of me, which just connected the two banks and formed a single-plank bridge. The tree is thick, but it is covered with moss, and this is a tropical rainforest, and I don't know if it has rotted.
Ding Xiaocong came to the river, opened his eyes and looked at it, and complained in his heart, there are more underwater crocodiles here. However, after trying it, although the surface of the tree is rotten, the core is still strong, and it has no problem bearing the weight of one person.
As long as it doesn't slide down, the crocodile can't jump up.
After judging the situation, this time Ding Xiaocong took off his shoes and stepped on the single-plank bridge. It's all moss, and I don't feel at ease when I wear any shoes, and it's best to wear barefoot in the past.
Because he had been nervous about the crocodile in the water, he walked with his witch eyes open, and he was careful step by step, and as soon as he reached the middle, he found something and stopped. I saw that in the eyes of the witch, there were small green bright spots in the moss in front of me.
Looking at these highlights, Ding Xiaocong sighed in his heart, green represents poison, there is something poisonous on this single-plank bridge!
Hurriedly recovering his vision, Ding Xiaocong squatted down and carefully examined it, only to see that there were many strange insect chrysalis in the moss, and the shell was covered with fluff.
"This is ......" Ding Xiaocong thought for a while, took out a knife from his bag, and cut it at one of the pupae.
Where the knife fell, there was no slurry in the image, and the chrysalis was wrapped in a very strange insect, like a small sea urchin, covered with spikes. opened the witch's eyes again and looked at it, Ding Xiaocong confirmed the conjecture, and his heart hung in the air.
These strange poisonous insects don't have a complete soul, they are all Gu.
Gu must be artificially stocked, these insects have no mobility, after being placed on a single-plank bridge, they breed from generation to generation, and the effect is obvious, poisoning and beating people who cross the bridge barefoot...... These pupae are completely covered with moss, and their appearance is almost invisible, if they hadn't opened their witch eyes just now, they must have been poisoned by now, either poisoned to death, or fell into the water and were eaten by crocodiles.
If it weren't for Ding Xiaocong's witch eyes, it would be impossible to see the layout here, that is to say, other people walking on this single-plank bridge can be described as ten deaths!
It's so vicious!
Unexpectedly, this place is actually a Gu array! I fell into it, but I don't know how deep it is. Ding Xiaocong figured out the joint, hurriedly put on his shoes, and prepared to return the same way to retreat from the single-plank bridge, seeing that the trap was still going to drill into it, wouldn't that be a fool.
However, it was already too late.
As soon as he turned around, out of the forest came a young girl in a black tights, with a graceful posture and a pistol......
Seeing that he couldn't go here, Ding Xiaocong hurriedly turned around and prepared to take the risk of rushing across the river. But the situation was worse here, and as soon as he turned around, a bearded man came out of there, holding a miniature submachine gun in his hand......
Two people, two guns, one left and one right, Ding Xiaocong was in the middle of the single-plank bridge, and below was a river full of crocodiles, completely unable to move, and could only ......
"Don't shoot, I'll surrender......" Ding Xiaocong's face was so bitter that he could drip water, this time he was completely suffered, he followed for hundreds of miles to kill people, but he actually became a prisoner of others, and now his life is completely in the hands of others, I just hope they don't shoot.
I didn't know that the pillar of incense was burned correctly, but the two men didn't shoot immediately, and the bearded one of them crooked the muzzle of the gun, and said in a rough voice: "Hold your head in your hands and walk down slowly." ”
Ding Xiaocong hurriedly obeyed, holding his head in both hands, and rubbed it over step by step. Behind him, the woman walked onto the single-plank bridge, armed with a pistol.
As soon as he got off the single-plank bridge, the bearded man immediately walked up, grabbed Ding Xiaocong's back collar, put the muzzle of the gun against the back of the heart, he pressed rudely to the ground, and began to search his body.
Ding Xiaocong's mind was racing, and his sister Xiaolan sensed it, quietly got out of his arms, and lurked in the grass.
Seeing his sister leave, Ding Xiaocong breathed a sigh of relief, he could be regarded as an explanation, but his sister couldn't finish with him. The reason why he didn't let his sister launch a surprise attack was only because he found out that these two people were not normal people, and their souls were not in the sea of consciousness.
