Chapter 13: Snake Soup

The morning breeze is refreshing.

A trail leads from the secondary road into a mountainous area, thus bypassing the checkpoint not far ahead. The trail has been unfooted for a long time, overgrown with wild grass, and almost impossible to navigate.

"Young master, are you sure you'll be okay?"

Lancy's uneasy voice came from the path, and he tried to calm himself, but he couldn't.

Zhou Zheng was carrying a Type 03 on his back, with five spare magazines around his waist, an alloy Nepalese scimitar specially made by the besieging craftsmen pinned to the outside of his thigh, and a small snow-white dagger on the other leg. The sturdy military boots stepped heavily on the barren grass, and immediately stepped on a foot mark.

"If I say it's okay, it's okay."

Pulling out the Nepalese scimitar, Zhou Zheng had an indescribable sense of familiarity, and he kept playing Nepal skillfully and playing with knives one by one. In the sun, the alloy of Nepal reflected bursts of light, and it was unusually blinding.

Although Zhou Zheng repeatedly assured, Zhou An and Lan Xi were still not at ease.

You must know that what Zhou is doing now is not to go to a safe level, but to go around the switch card and look for strange beasts.

People avoid strange beasts, but Zhou Zheng doesn't look for them. This kind of thinking scared Zhou An and Lan Xi at the beginning, but Zhou Zheng threatened, they could only agree obediently, after all, Zhou Zheng was the master, and they were just guards.

Seeing that the two of them were not at ease, Zhou Zheng smiled lightly: "Don't you still believe in my marksmanship?" ”

I have to say that Zhou Zheng's marksmanship has improved very quickly.

Half a month ago, it was just decent, but now it is extremely brilliant.

Zhou An was helpless and spread his hands: "Okay, you are the young master, you have the final say." But you have to do what we can control, or we'll take coercive measures to bring you back to the besieged city. The leader has explained that your safety comes first. ”

"Alright, got it!"

The group of three followed the trail and soon moved away from the road, and after crossing a small hill, the path was covered with wild grass and bushes, and there was no way to go.

"Young Master, you can't go any deeper."

It was Lan Xi who spoke, and he held the mountain knife in his hand and stared around vigilantly.

This distance is still within his ability to control. The closer you get to the siege, the weaker the beasts become, and the farther away they are, there will be high-level beasts at any time. A year ago, there would also be high-level alien beasts in this area, and no one dared to set foot in this area alone.

After looking at it, Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "It's okay, it's here." ”

Searching Nepal back into the scabbard at the thigh, Zhou Zheng put the gun in his hand, and said after checking it: "Lanxi, you said that if there is some noise here, will it attract the curiosity of some strange beasts to come and inquire?" ”

Lan Xi was startled and waved his hand desperately: "Young Master can't help it, the strange beasts that come over when they hear a sound, they are definitely not good." ”

Ordinary alien beasts, hearing the sound of gunshots, would have run away long ago. But some ferocious beasts, the sound will attract them. It is conceivable that this coming beast is at least a second-order beast, and it may not even attract a higher one.

As soon as Lan Xi's voice fell, Zhou Zheng's gunfire rang out.

A strong wind swept past his face, causing Lan Xi's face to lose its bloody color in an instant, and the bullet flew almost against his head.

There was a "poof" sound, a small ball of blood stirred up, and the sound of bullets shooting into the trees was heard.

A gray snake the size of a two fingers fell from the trunk of a tree, struggling in the dirt, and the blood sprayed red the fallen leaves on the ground. Its snake head was shot by Zhou Zheng and hit to pieces.

The gray snake body makes it very well hidden, and it is tightly attached to the trunk of the tree, and if you don't observe it in detail, you can't find its trace at all.

The Grey Shadow Viper is also the most common small beast outside the siege, and they have a faster speed and more intense poison under the formation of alienation. It only takes a bite to kill a person in a matter of seconds. Usually lurking in the woods, using the color similar to the trunk of the tree to camouflage, almost undetected.

Zhou An's face changed, and he walked over and picked up the gray shadow viper that was still twitching slightly.

"The snake body is left, the meat is delicious, hit a few more, and stew a pot of snake soup tonight."

Indeed, the Grey Shadow Viper is extremely venomous, but its flesh is also unusually delicious, making it a rare food. Because of its poisonousness, no one provoked it lightly, and there were not many people in the besieged city who could eat it.

Except for the venom sac and fangs of the snake's head, the other parts of the gray shadow viper are not poisonous and can be eaten with confidence.

"Young Master, how did you find out?"

Zhou An packed the dead gray shadow viper in a cloth bag, and then looked at Zhou Zheng curiously, even he didn't notice this gray shadow viper, how did Zhou Zheng find out, and asked unconsciously.

"I saw movement on the trunk of the tree, and I thought of the danger you had explained before, so I shot first."

Investigating the real reason, Zhou Zheng found a very unnatural thing, that is, under the character's vision, like this hidden gray shadow viper, it has a blood bar on the top of its head, red and dazzling, and it is difficult for Zhou Zheng not to notice it.

The reason why it is called against the sky, with this blood bar, what other strange beasts or poisonous corpses can ambush themselves?

Think about it, in the grass, there is a ferocious beast hidden, and it is very easy to be attacked by it without realizing it. But with this one blood bar, could it be that the red blood bar is there, which is incompatible with the surrounding environment, and it will hide Zhou Zheng's eyes, and it will be sneak attacked?

At this moment, Zhou Zheng smiled. Of course, he wouldn't explain it to Zhou An, and they knew that this would be a means to save his life.

Lan Xi reacted from the shock just now and rolled his eyes at Zhou Zheng, but was surprised at how Zhou Zheng's marksmanship was so powerful. The snake head of the Gray Shadow Viper was no more than the size of a finger, but it was hit by Zhou Zheng without any preparation, and the level of shooting required was extremely high.

Zhou Zheng looked around, then shook his head.

Just now he saw a few blood bars, but under the sound of gunfire, he was scared away.

Faintly, you can also see some blood bars moving into the distance in the woods.

"Where are we going?"

Zhou Zhengyi pointed deeper into the woods, regardless of whether Zhou An and Lan Xi agreed or not, he pulled out the leaves and walked inside.

Frightened by Zhou Zheng just now, Lan Xi didn't dare to refute anymore, glanced at each other with Zhou An, and chased after Zhou Zheng while raising his vigilance.

……

On the trunk of the tree, a gray shadow viper that was very well hidden, but it did not know that its blood bar betrayed it deeply.

Zhou Zheng was more than thirty meters away, holding a gun and squinting slightly.

"Bang" the gunshot, and the gray shadow viper fell from the trunk in response.

Zhou An held the alloy knife with the cloth bag, a few ups and downs, and instantly appeared in front of the gray shadow viper whose head was blown off. Turning around, Zhou An shouted, "Young Master, it's half a bag." ”

With a look on his face, he has long been accustomed to Zhou Zheng's unpredictable ability.

It was a little difficult to accept at first, but after a morning, I had to accept it, and I could only classify Zhou Zheng's marksmanship, which is comparable to a sharpshooter, as Zhou Zheng's talent, the talent of a top gunner.

Zhou Zheng silently read the character attributes, looked at the experience value, and still had a little experience before leveling up.

Don't look at the small size of this gray shadow viper, but the experience it can provide is not comparable to that of a low-level poisonous corpse, which is very impressive.

Another surprise to Zhou Zheng is the effect of the passive skill of "precision", under this effect, Zhou Zheng's marksmanship has almost reached the point of 100 shots, and he has played the 03 style in his hand very well.

Zhou Zheng moved his arm and said, "That's all for today." ”

This place is already very far into the woods, and if you go further, you may encounter some second- and third-order alien beasts.

Zhou Zheng's current attributes have reached the level of a martial artist, but he doesn't dare to hold it up, and he is not so hot-headed that he thinks that he can be unscrupulous under the number of jΓΉ. Only when you make sure that you are safe do you talk about anything else.

Lan Xi and they all agreed, in their opinion, Zhou Zheng is just hunting, there is this half bag of harvest, not to mention a pot of snake soup, even three or two pots are enough, it can be regarded as a bumper harvest, but they don't know the real situation, these so-called hunting are just products outside of Zhou Zheng's leveling.
