Chapter 12: Dead End

There were no more accidents on the way back, and the harvest of prey was carried smoothly all the way, in the direction of the village, where people could settle down.

The sound of the desolate wind raged in the desolate wilderness, making a 'woo' wail.

The long journey can be physically and mentally exhausting, but the excitement of arriving home is enough to dispel any fatigue and ensure a good night's sleep when you get home.

Everyone thought so, as if suddenly there was a lot of strength under their feet, and they pushed the frame vigorously and strode forward, and the familiar village should be in front of them, as calm and peaceful as ever.

"It's coming!"

There were cheers of excitement.

Even Zhou He was infected by this emotion, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, they should be waiting eagerly, right?

Ah Yi gently tapped the wheel of the car with the butt of the gun, and made a gesture to signal everyone to stop.

What happened?

Zhou He looked back at him and thought.

"That's right."

Zhou He's eyes stared at the village in front of him, and a trace of uneasiness welled up in his heart, how could he be so quiet? It stands to reason that they should have a patrol who will be the first to inform the people in the village of the good news when they notice the return of the people who have gone out hunting.

The pitted skin and sand in front of the earthen wall are gone······ Was something unexpected happening?

"Ah Jiu, follow me to have a look."

The muscles on Ah Yan's face twitched slightly, and the ten fingers that grabbed the handle of the gun were unusually hard, and the knuckles were a little white, and he sensed that something was wrong, but he had to keep his composure.

"What's wrong?"

Someone asked loudly, but Ah Yi did not respond, and he led Ah Jiu to run in the direction of the village with a gun, his steps were hurried, and he wanted to know what was going on.

"What the hell is going on?"

The people who were left behind looked at each other, some tried their best to stand on tiptoe and look in the direction of the village, the clever people had already sensed that something was wrong, the relaxed atmosphere gradually became solemn, the joy of returning home was diluted, and the air was solidifying little by little.

Ah Yi and Ah Jiu circled around the village, they did not enter the village, and no one expected came out, cheering and greeting, and the silence was frightening.

They came back, Zhou He gradually felt a little bad, this feeling was indescribable, he felt uncomfortable, Ah Yi's calm face seemed to be suppressing something, the calmer he was, the more scared he felt.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou He asked, his voice was a little nervous, he seemed to have foreseen something, the people in the village had disappeared?

Ah Yi pulled out the dagger from the strap of his calf, his movements were natural and smooth, and then, the pitch-black dagger without a trace of reflected light stabbed at him, and the speed was very fast.

No one was aware of this sudden change, until Zhou He subconsciously stretched out his hand, twisted his wrist hard, and pressed Ah Yi's arm towards his own neck, and he could even hear the sound of Ah Yi's wrist dislocated.

"What? You are crazy! ”

Zhou He questioned angrily, his trembling voice carried a hint of fear, he could be extremely sure that just now, Ah Yi wanted to kill him. His body subconsciously made a defensive counterattack, a standard grappling gesture, and that extraordinary strength dislocated Ah Yi's wrist.

"What do you ask me for??"

Ah Yi's gaze was fixed on Zhou He's face, his eyes were a little red, his voice was hoarse and trembling, and there was irrepressible madness in his calm tone, which was being transmitted through Ah Yi's gaze: "You must have brought it, right?!" ”

"It must be!"

He roared, "You are a spy of the subspecies! No! You're a subspecies!! ”

"Kill him! Kill him for me! ”

His body was trembling and struggling, his chest was rising and falling violently, the voice he exhaled was as hoarse as a bellows, and his vocal cords seemed to be torn apart by a vigorous roar, and Zhou He clamped his other hand hard, imprisoning his movements.

"Don't move!"

The gun in Ah Jiu's hand was against Zhou He's back, and the face full of scars was hideously twisted, full of resentment: "Let go!" ”

What kind of hateful look should that be?

Zhou He froze in place, what happened? Why do you say you are subspecies? They blamed themselves for the people who had disappeared from the village.

He quickly figured out why, but couldn't find any reason to dispel their suspicions, no, it wasn't suspicion, it was certainty.

"If I am really a spy of the subspecies, how can I take such a risk to go out hunting with you? You should stay in the village. ”

Zhou He took a deep breath, he had seen his situation clearly, if he didn't explain it clearly, they would definitely kill him, and he had to solve this misunderstanding.

"Let go of me."

Ah Yi's lips trembled slightly, and his voice was hoarse as if he had swallowed coals, but his emotions seemed to have been controlled. But Zhou He didn't dare, his five fingers grasped his hand, and the blade of the dagger pressed against the skin on his neck.

Ah Jiu pressed the muzzle of the gun against Zhou He's back, the green tendons on his neck were swollen and squirming, his bloodshot eyes were staring at him, his fingers were on the trigger, and his knuckles were bloody.

"You need to be calm! It really needs to be calm! I don't want to suffer this kind of unjustified wrong! As he spoke, he turned his head and swept through the commotion of the crowd, and said to Ah Yi: "They still need your leadership, and the people in the village are still waiting for you to save them." You shouldn't have anything wrong at this time, you need to stay calm! “

"I know."

Ah Yi gave up struggling.

"You believe me?"

Zhou He exhaled deeply.

"Nope."

He took a deep breath, trying to restrain his emotions: "If you want to gain my trust again, then let go of your hand, you are good enough to threaten us." Because of this, I can't judge your authenticity, so I need to let Ah Jiu tie you up first. ”

"No, you just wanted my life." Zhou He directly rejected Ah Yi's request: "I'm sorry to hurt your wrist, but I'm not unintentional, and if you really want to save the disappeared people in the village, you should hurry up!" ”

"I know what to do!"

Ah Yi's body trembled violently, forcibly turned his head, and glared at Zhou He with bloodshot eyes, and the dagger attached to his skin cut a bloody mark on his neck. But he didn't seem to have any sense, just gasped: "I want to kill you!" Do you know? You damn guy! ”

"Ah Jiu!"

Ah Yi roared angrily: "Tie him up!" If he dares to move, shoot him! ”

However, Zhou He sadly found that he had no means to rely on, he didn't dare to move, he didn't dare to use the sharp dagger diameter to cut Ah Yi's throat, those angry bullets would tear himself apart in an instant. But in addition to the fish dying and the net being broken, all he can do is pray that Ah Yi will give up the idea of killing him, but this is no different from a lottery.

Zhou He let go of Ah Yi, Ah Jiu unloaded the firearm he was carrying on his body, tied his arms tightly to his back with a thick rope, and then strangled his body a few times, he glared at Ah Yi angrily: "What should I do to believe it?" ”

After being released, Ah Yi picked up the dislocated wrist of his right hand vigorously, gently rubbed his wrist, and then clenched his left hand into a fist and coldly hit Zhou He's face.

"Bang!"

Zhou He's eyes were blackened, and his head was buzzing, like a swarm of flies flying around in his ears, and it seemed to have auditory hallucinations, and the sound was like a buzzing sound of poor signal connection.

"Horsewoman's!"

The teeth broke the skin of the lips, and the salty blood overflowed the tooth sockets, Zhou He spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, and couldn't stop thinking pessimistically: Next, is it time to accept the sentence of death?

This goddamn god always has to tease himself before he stops?

His heart was full of resentment, damned subspecies······ Including, the idiot-like Ah Yi, how can he be a subspecies? If you are a subspecies, how can you be stupid enough to follow them out hunting? But it seems that it was because of his own impulse that he went out with them, and avoided disappearing like the people in the village······ It's ridiculous.

He opened his mouth to tell him that he wasn't a subspecies, but the cold muzzle of Ah Jiu's jaw on his chin made him shut up.

"Put away the gun."

This hoarse voice came from Ah Yi's throat, and his hanging heart seemed to fall to the ground, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: He didn't plan to kill me?

Ah Yi clapped his hands, drawing the crowd's gaze to himself. He climbed onto the frame, stepped on the piles of meat, and said calmly in a hoarse voice: "Brothers, this is unfortunate news, you have probably guessed it, Ah Jiu and I found traces of the subspecies chariot outside the village, and they took the people of the village while we were out hunting. ”

The flames of anger burned in those bloodshot eyes, and their eyes were condensed on Zhou He's body, as if they wanted to burn him to death with the angry fireworks. It was a pair of crazy eyes that were enough to make people feel suffocated, Zhou He subconsciously wanted to hang his head to avoid touching such a vicious look, but he couldn't, he must not show any unnaturalness.

"I'm going to save them from the clutches of the demons."

Ah Yi pulled the bolt of the gun and roared in a hoarse voice: "But they have chariots!" There are robots! Are you scared?! ”

"Nope! Kill those wretches! Rescue them! ”

"Don't be afraid!"

"Kill them!"

"Rescue them!"

Anger is an emotion that inspires courage, it can make people forget life and death for a short time, and act contrary to reason. The crowd responded filigently, raising the guns and weapons in their hands, clenching their left hands into fists, beating their hearts and roaring angrily.

"Bring enough dry food for personal consumption, follow me, and go!"

Ah Yi jumped off the frame, used his dagger to cut the vines bound on the frame, cut open the leather bag, cut the pieces of meat inside, and put them into his own dry food bag. Then he turned around and walked towards Zhou He without a trace of expression on his face.

"It's better not for me to find out what's wrong with you, or I'll shoot you in the head." He used a dagger to cut the rope tied to Zhou He's body, and stared at Zhou He with a cold gaze: "If it's my fault, afterwards, I will apologize to you." ”

After saying that, he staggered away with him.

Apologize?

Impossible.

He looked calmly at the group of companions who were cutting meat for dry food, and turned to look at the marks left by the sub-race chariot: this would be a dead end.
