Chapter 31: Who is the Real Hunter
Paul and the others looked at Danny stupidly, it was a knife, a gun or something, they were all dumbfounded, and they didn't react for a while.
It wasn't until Danny threw the saber at Paul that he came to his senses and shouted, "Are you crazy? Danny, we're just here to camp in the wild, not to go to the battlefield, why are we taking out all the knives and guns? ”
Jasmine and Eva are also very surprised and frightened, and wonder why Danny did this.
After putting away the saber, Danny looked around through the car window and said to everyone solemnly: "The first rule of survival in the wild requires constant vigilance at all times, so I will bring some self-defense weapons when I go out." ”
The saber is prepared by Danny before he set off, one is the US cavalry machete, the blade is 24 cm long, the blade is about 3 cm wide, and it is made of high carbon steel.
The other is a rising star in the saber world in recent years, the cold steel Mitsumi katana, which is about 20 centimeters long. Mitsumi Steel is a type of steel that specializes in making high-grade Japanese knives, and it is also the only special steel for knife making, and the biggest feature is that it is made of three different steels, which is simply like a sandwich.
Danny carefully examined Paul's cavalry knife again, and said to everyone: "The second rule of survival in the wild, don't ignore those man-made dangers, unless you are in a very harsh natural environment, most of the time, the danger comes from humans. ”
Eva suddenly realized, "Danny, are you saying that someone wants to be against us?" ”
Paul and Jasmine understood what Danny meant, and they looked at each other in surprise, puzzled.
"Yes, remember the old man at the gas station just now? He showed us the way, but do you think he has good intentions? Danny said dismissively.
"What? He wants to harm us? But, for no reason, why? And, Danny, how do you see that? Paul asked, first surprised, then confused.
"I don't know why he wanted to hurt us. But I knew he had bad intentions, and the map on the wall, though old, was still clear, representing the dotted line of Bear Mountain Road, which meant it was a dead end, but he told us that the road was not paved. Danny said, shaking his head.
"Dead end? So what are we going to do down this path? Should we go back to the highway? Jasmine said eagerly, clearly frightened by this.
"No, we can't go back!" Danny directly rejects Jasmine's offer.
"Why? Knowing that there is danger ahead, why do we still take this path? Jasmine shouted loudly, a little emotional.
Danny was silent for a while, waiting for Jasmine to calm down, then said, "We can go back now, and we can be safe, but I suspect that there are people who have taken the Bear Mountain Road just before us, and if we are not mistaken, they were also led by the old man, they may also be in danger, and we should find them." ”
When Jasmine heard Danny's explanation, she was speechless and hesitated.
"We don't have a cell phone signal right now, we can't call the police, so we have to find them ourselves, and if they're not in danger, that's the best, and if something happens, I think they definitely need help.
And don't worry about the danger, I'm not an ordinary person, I'm an experienced professional, Paul knows, I can fight ten at a time, so I'll protect you. To put Jasmine and Eva at ease, Danny joked.
"Danny, is it possible that the news we heard on the radio had something to do with it?" Paul suddenly remembered the news he had heard earlier.
Jasmine and Eva also remembered, and their expressions became more nervous. "If I'm not mistaken, it should be, the news says that the place of the incident is not very far away." Danny replied.
After listening to Danny's words, everyone agreed with Danny's approach, and continued to move along the Bear Mountain Road, finding the group before Danny as soon as possible, and then taking them away.
Paul started the car and slowly walked down Bear Mountain Road, and Danny and Jasmine switched positions and sat in the passenger seat, letting the two girls sit in the back together.
While observing the surroundings, Danny thought: I didn't expect to go out on this trip, and I actually found another plot world, and it was a horror movie.
The movie "Fatal Bend", which Danny had seen once in his previous life, was famous among horror movie lovers for its bloody horror and creative murder methods.
Danny was also recommended by others to watch it, to be honest, after Danny watched it at that time, the only feeling he had was not horror, disgust, fear and other feelings, but that he felt weird.
The plot of the movie is very simple, that is, a group of people turned a corner in the jungle, embarked on a road of death, were hunted by three ugly-looking weirdos, and after various escapes and resistances, only the male and female protagonists escaped in the end.
The movie still left suspense at the end, the three monsters did not die, so the film company filmed the sixth film at a rate of one per year.
Of course, Danny definitely didn't finish watching it, but the plot of the first part impressed Danny deeply. So when Danny saw the old man at the gas station for the first time, he immediately remembered this strange horror movie.
If it was a few months ago, if this incident happened, Danny would definitely not say a word, and immediately let Paul turn around and go back, who would have the heart to care about the life and death of that group of unlucky young people, although Danny is not a bad person, but he is not a virgin, at most, when the time comes, call the police, and he will have done his duty.
It's ridiculous to be like they told Jasmine to help others, and if you can't keep yourself safe, it's a complete mess.
The reason why Danny did the opposite this time is that he can ensure everyone's safety, although the three monsters in the plot are experienced, all kinds of weapons are complete, and their bodies are very strong, ordinary people are not opponents, and they can recover very quickly after being injured. But Danny is not an ordinary person now, and it is still easy to believe that superpowers can deal with them.
Another reason is that Danny doesn't want to run away anymore, the magic crystal gives him superpowers, but it also puts him in danger, so he needs to not miss any opportunity to find any chance that might help him.
"Squeak!" Danny was in a state of preoccupation when he was interrupted by a sudden braking, and when Danny looked up, he saw that the road in front of the car was full of iron thorns that looked like branches but were wrapped in nails.
Paul looked at Danny in a cold sweat, but fortunately he knew that there would be danger, so he watched the car very slowly, so he was able to detect that something was wrong in time and brake hurriedly. "I believe you now, Danny, there is indeed a danger, you see, this kind of thing is definitely artificial."
Eva and Jasmine also looked up at the iron spikes, and looked scared.
"You two stay in the car, don't come out, Paul and I will go down and have a look." After Danny finished speaking, he opened the car door, katana in hand, and carefully observed the surroundings.
Paul also got out of the car with a knight's knife, walked to the front of the car, picked the iron thorn with the knife into the woods by the roadside, and said to Danny, "Who do you say did it?" ”
"I don't know, but I know that if you dare to kill people in the jungle, there are usually two hits, maybe it's a murderous maniac, anyway, it's not a simple character, and it may be like Jasmine said, it's not necessarily a savage in the mountains." Danny explained briefly, not telling Paul the truth.
After Danny finished speaking, he slowly walked to the side of the road, then crouched on the ground and took a closer look. "Did you find anything?" Paul walked over and asked.
"Look, what is this?" Danny picks some of the leaves open with his knife, revealing something.
"Oh! Oh my God, it's... damn it, who is so cruel? Paul took a look and saw a bloody ear under the leaves, and the blood was still fresh, indicating that someone had been killed not long ago.
Danny continued to cover his ears with the leaves, then stood up. "Paul, it seems that my guess is correct, not only were people in front of us, but they were also killed, and since there are no bodies in the vicinity, it means that the murderers took their car and the body away. Then I think the murderer must have a stronghold nearby to help him hide the body and the car. ”
Paul nodded, he had never encountered such a thing, as a rich kid, the theme of his usual life was parties, beautiful women, luxury cars, and good wine. I didn't expect to come out on a wild trip and meet a murderer so coincidentally.
"Danny, I listen to you, I just want you to keep Jasmine and Eva safe, I don't want anything to happen to the two of them, I invited them out, I have to make sure they go back in one piece." Paul put his arm around Danny's shoulders and said to him in a very serious tone.
Danny looked at Paul's serious face, he didn't expect Paul to say this suddenly, but after thinking about it carefully, with Danny's understanding of Paul, he is not the kind of rich kid who is greedy for life and afraid of death, but this time the person he likes is inside, so he is very worried.
"Don't worry! Brother, I'm not going to let you lose a single hair! Believe me! Danny patted Paul's hand and returned to the car.
Jasmine and Eva stayed in the car, both of them with nervous expressions, and when Danny got into the car, Jasmine hurriedly asked, "Danny, what did you find?" ”
Jasmine saw Danny and Paul in the jungle and must have found something. "It's nothing, it's just that I found the traces left by the gang in front of me, and I think they should be right ahead."
Instead of telling the two girls the truth, so as not to deepen their fears, Paul reassured Jasmine as he started the car: "Don't worry! Jasmine, with us, there will be no danger. ”
"Paul, hurry up! I'll help you observe the road surface, I don't think there should be anything like this in front of you. Danny said, fastening his seat belt.
Even if there is such a thing, Danny can use his superpowers to remove it, but he just fell into a trance, and he didn't pay attention.
Paul picked up the speed and didn't go far before he realized that there was a dead end in front of him.
Looking at the barricade in front of me, there is a sign standing on it, which reads: "deadedn", which means that the road ahead is impassable, and the big word "death" also means that there is a lot of danger here.
Paul: They looked at the cliff ahead of them, and they looked terrified. Danny was about to say something when a gunshot rang out from below the cliff.
Danny hurriedly pointed to a side path and said to Paul, "Go down from here, they're in danger." ”
Paul, who also heard the gunshot, hurriedly turned the car into the side road and rushed down like a beast.
Danny let the two girls hold on to it as he thought to himself: the jungle hunting game begins, let's see who's the hunter!
