The sound of this gunshot made Chen Mu's pupils shrink violently, and his heart beat violently.
He jerked his head away.
A familiar figure walked over while changing the ammunition of his shotgun.
"Hello, you are ...... Chen, I remember you! ”
"Hi Old John, hello!"
Chen Mu looked at the figure that was gradually approaching and greeted him gently.
This person is the old John who showed them the way before, and then disappeared inexplicably.
Old John glanced at the direction where the elk disappeared just now, shrugged his shoulders, and said with some regret: "Alas, Old John is really old, and it's a pity that the prey that was so good just now didn't hit." ”
As he spoke, Old John took the gun that had been reloaded, walked to the shore on the side, and looked at Chen Mu: "Dear Chen, why are you here?" What about your companions? ”
"My companion ......" Chen Mu's gaze swept from Old John's shotgun, and then looked at Old John, with a smile on his face, "I'm separated from them." But luckily, I remember that we agreed on a meeting place, and I'll be going to look for them later. ”
"Oh, I see." Old John's beard trembled, "In this mountain forest, it is a very bad thing to be separated from your companions. But luckily, you met Old John. ”
Old John put away his shotgun and stretched out his right hand to Chen Mu, "Come, let Old John help you!" ”
Chen Mu held Old John's hand, and Old John pulled Chen Mu out of the water with a strong hand.
"Oh my God, what's going on? Chen, you're ......"
Old John looked at Chen Mu at this time and let out an exclamation.
Chen Mu's shirt had long been burned in the cave for lighting, and since then, he has been naked.
When he was in the cave, he couldn't see anything because of the thick layer of wet mud on his body. At this time, after the washing and washing of the river, the wet mud on his body has disappeared, revealing a smooth upper body.
Old John looked at Chen Mu's upper body, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he exclaimed.
On Chen Mu's body, there were various scars, which looked like scratches from some kind of animal. The wounds were crisscrossed, some had scabbed, some had been washed white by the cold water.
These wounds were all caused by monster attacks in the cave. The part that was scabbed looked much better because of the medicine that Zhang Zhiqiang took out at that time.
"Oh my God, Chen, what happened to you? How could it be ......"
Old John screamed again and again, as if it was hard to imagine what Chen Mu had experienced.
"What did I go through?" The corners of Chen Mu's mouth curved into an arc, as if he was smiling, but his eyes were extremely cold, and he approached Old John, "Just before, we entered a cave, and there was ...... in the cave."
Getting closer, getting closer.
Chen Mu's words obviously attracted Old John's attention, and Chen Mu gradually approached him.
Brush!
Chen Mu suddenly had a dagger in his hand, and he wiped it directly towards Old John's neck.
And at the first time Chen Mu launched an attack, Old John was already aware of it, and he subconsciously turned his head sideways.
Sou!
The dagger grazed Old John's chin, cutting off his beard and cutting a deep wound on the left side of Old John's chin.
The wound was visible to the bone, connected to Old John's chin, and at first glance, I thought it was Old John's mouth that had suddenly doubled in length.
Blood immediately gushed out, staining half of Old John's face red, and even flowing down the corners of his mouth into Old John's mouth.
Old John was so painful that his whole face was almost deformed, and he looked particularly hideous.
Chen Mu missed a blow and stepped forward again. However, Old John reacted very quickly, he quickly took the shotgun he had just put away in his hand and aimed it in the direction of Chen Mu.
At this time, if Chen Mu continued to attack, he would definitely be able to cause serious injuries to Old John, but he also had a great chance of being hit by Old John's counterattack.
With a sigh in his heart, Chen Mu chose to dodge.
Bang!
The bullet almost grazed Chen Mu's head.
Chen Mu jumped and rolled, jumping into the bushes on the side.
Bang!
Old John fired another shot at the bush, then quickly retreated, expertly reloading.
After loading his bullets, Old John pointed his shotgun at the bush and walked cautiously.
"Boom!" He spat out a mouthful of blood spit, "Dear Chen, why did you make a move on the amiable old John? You know, old John, I'm a pacifist......"
Old John looked around the bushes, there was nothing there, and Chen Mu was nowhere to be seen.
"Dear Chen, you come out, Old John believes that you didn't mean to attack me, you must have been stimulated by something, right? Old John is a warm-hearted man, I'll help you......"
Not far away, there was a sound of Suosuo, and old John turned around instantly, "Bang! "Another shot.
The movement disappeared, and a stream of blood flowed to the ground.
Old John walked over with a sinister smile on his face, but when he saw it clearly, the smile on his face disappeared.
It was an elk, probably the one who had been drinking by the river before.
At this time, almost half of the elk's head was blown off with a single shot, killing him instantly.
There was still no trace of Chen Mu around.
"Chen, come out! Old John will forgive you for your rudeness, and will help you find your companions! ”
Old John held the gun in both hands, and did not even treat the wound on his face, allowing the blood to flow.
The blood made his mouth bright red, and his originally white teeth were stained red with blood. At this time, he still kept smiling and talking, and his blood-stained teeth were exposed, looking particularly hideous.
"Or, you tell me where your companion is. After I found them, I came with them to help you. ”
Old John kept shouting, but Chen Mu seemed to have evaporated and disappeared completely.
He spun around several times in quick succession, aiming his shotgun in all directions, but still found nothing.
The wind in the mountains and forests rustled through the leaves, and from time to time a few birds flew around and chirped merrily.
"Chen, you are such a rude fellow, if you don't come out again, old John will be angry."
The smile on Old John's face gradually froze, revealing a bit of ruthlessness.
"Alright, Chen, stop kidding. If you don't come out again, old John will be leaving. ”
Perhaps knowing that it was impossible for Chen Mu to come out, Old John's face was gloomy. He took his shotgun and stepped back cautiously.
He watched his surroundings vigilantly, his body constantly turning, his eyes staring sharply at any place around him where anyone might be hiding. If there was anything unusual, he would shoot without hesitation.
However, there was silence all around, and nothing was found.
Old John's eyes rolled, and he knew that he was definitely a cunning and patient opponent he had encountered, and that the opponent was hiding in the shadows, on the active side. If this continues, he will suffer.
Therefore, Old John decided to get out of here first.
In this way, as long as Chen Mu catches up, Old John will resolve the disadvantage of the enemy and take the initiative.
Moreover, Old John's familiarity with this mountain forest far exceeds that of Chen Mu, as long as Chen Mu dares to pursue him, Old John is absolutely sure that he will lead Chen Mu into a trap. At that time, whether it was to kill Chen Mu directly, or to force someone else's whereabouts and then kill Chen Mu, it was a matter of his arbitrary arrangement.
And if Chen Mu doesn't pursue, Old John will find a vantage point and then monitor here.
Just like hunting prey before, Old John believed that as long as Chen Mu showed his head, his precious shotgun could make Chen Mu a dead corpse.
Old John, who had made the decision, stepped back cautiously, moving in the direction he was optimistic about.
As he approached the position of the dead elk, Old John suddenly hesitated. He has been chasing this elk for a long time, and it is not easy to encounter such a good prey.
It would be a pity if he left here and was eaten by other wild beasts.
Thinking of this, Old John decided to take this elk, anyway, it weighed only a few dozen catties, and it would not affect his actions.
Old John probed his surroundings again, and gradually approached the elk.
Finally, he went under the tree where the elk was, leaned against it, and waited a little.
Brush! Old John jerked out from behind the tree and aimed his shotgun in all directions.
No one!
Old John breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Chen Mu was frightened and didn't dare to come out.
He bent down and lifted the elk up.
A figure slipped silently from the tree above him......
It had been a long time since he had eaten venison, and old John was so pleased with his prey that he planned to cut off the best meat and make it into a roast, and throw the rest into the dark cave to feed the fellows who would never have enough to eat.
Old John seemed to have seen the group of fellows in the cave fighting for the elk.
"What a lovely bunch of guys!"
Old John thought of the figures in the caves, and a smile appeared on his face.
Suddenly the sound of leaves overhead made Old John look up in confusion and alarm.
A dagger suddenly appeared from the top of his head, slitting his neck in an instant, and blood gushed out.
Old John's throat made a clicking sound, he looked at Chen Mu, his mouth moved, and he couldn't say anything after all.
Bang!
The elk that Old John had just lifted fell to the ground, and at the same time, his body fell to the ground.
Chen Mu hooked a tree trunk with his legs, his head down, and hung upside down on the tree.
Seeing Old John fall, Chen Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he slowly climbed down from the tree.
There was a vibration in the watch, and Chen Mu raised his wrist to look.
