Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Dry Quagmire

"Old friends? What old friends? Could it be that Dong Shao and Jun Xiaoge are here? Or is Fu Tianlei's grandson chasing after him? Lao Gu guessed wildly about any possibility he could think of.

However, judging by Jiang Qi's nervous tone, I'm afraid that the "old friend" he was referring to was not the kind of old friend that Lao Gu thought.

When they walked to Jiang Qi's side, they followed his gaze and looked not far ahead, only to find that there was a large dry quagmire, surrounded by some rotten/decayed green leaves. And in that large green leaf, a little bright color was revealed.

For them, who had just experienced a vicious fight, they must be extremely allergic to that color. I heard Gu Jie pretend to be calm and said, "Then, what is that little red in the ten thousand pieces of green?" ”

Qin Zhen looked at Gu Jie with a bitter face, and then said in a slightly miserable voice, "It's only been a long time, and you've forgotten what it is...... ”

"Giant Malu...... Is it? Uncle, is it here waiting to ambush us? Lao Gu looked at the small patch of pink emerging from the grass in disbelief.

Qin Zhen also didn't expect that they would meet the giant Ma Lu again so soon. Not to mention, he already knew that if he didn't kill this thing at that time, he would definitely have endless troubles! It's okay now, then Ma Lu seems to have eased up, but Qin Zhen hasn't eased up yet! What should I do if this starts again?

Just when Qin Zhen was about to die, Jiang Qi suddenly said: "Don't panic first, why do I feel that this Ma Lu is a little wrong?" ”

Lao Gu was angry when he heard it: "I said Daqi." You sue me first, what's wrong with this giant thousand-legged monster? ”

"No, no, I don't think it's right for it to show its tail without moving. Judging from the time it fought with us before, it should belong to the one that does not show its tail lightly. Jiang Qi observed the strange tranquility in the grass with suspicion.

When Jiang Qi said this, Qin Zhen also felt that this was indeed the case. If this Ma Lu is really waiting for them, why do you want to pretend to be dead until now? But Lao Gu said disapprerovingly: "Don't be suspicious, this thing was beaten half to death by Qin Zhen before, and now it is so virtuous if it doesn't show its tail, it just wants to resist stubbornly and strive to pull a cushion before it dies!" ”

As he spoke. Lao Gu slowly approached the dry quagmire. Qin Zhen didn't want to stop it. Because since we have reached this point, we have to meet sooner or later, it is better to take the initiative and maybe take the lead. So it's also with Jiang Qi. As Lao Gu leaned towards the quagmire.

Malu hides in the grass. All you can see now is its large, bright pink tail.

Lao Gu took over Qin Zhen's steel fork. Now it seems that this broken long fork has become a sought-after weapon. In this way, Qin Zhen still has some vision......

I saw Lao Gu holding a steel fork and gently brushing away the weeds. Immediately, I saw the familiar giant Malu! It stands to reason that Ma Lu must be alert to such a movement of Lao Gu. But until Lao Gu completely opened the weeds in front of him, Ma Lu was still lying there motionless.

Now Lao Gu was even bolder, he simply patted Ma Lu's tail with that fork and said, "Eh, eh, don't fuck me here and pretend to be dead!" Didn't you lie in ambush and squat? Rise up! "Under normal circumstances, Lao Gu behaved like this, then Ma Lu turned his head and Lao Gu's head would be gone.

But now it is not the case, the horse is lying on his stomach strangely, and there is still no movement. Qin Zhen felt a little strange, so he grabbed Lao Gu, who was about to continue to move, and said as he walked forward: "Old Gu, don't bother, if it remembers, it won't be your turn to be here for a long time." I think ......"

Qin Zhen didn't finish his words directly, but took a few steps forward, ready to look at Na Ma Lu's head. But just looking at it, he couldn't help but gasp. No wonder this Ma Lu is motionless, it turns out that it is already dead!

But the problem is that its death was not caused by Qin Zhen and them before! Now it's gone, the whole head is gone! The wound was so rotten that I couldn't imagine how such a wound could have been caused!

When Qin Zhen used his fists to fight against it, he had seen Ma Lu's skeleton. It's as if pieces of steel are spliced together. Don't...... Ma Lu: Is this a meat grinder? To make it so broken?

And judging by Malu's trauma, there is almost no room for it to fight back. What meat grinder...... It's all, it must have run into something more powerful than it......

However, although this giant Malu was already seriously injured, judging from its size and self-defense method of spewing irritating gas, it should not have died so miserably! And it's only been so long that there are no corpses, so how powerful are the creatures it encounters?

Looking at Ma Lu's corpse, the three of them were all worried, what Qin Zhen thought about just now, Lao Gu and Jiang Qi must have also thought of it. Seeing that it is almost ten o'clock in the evening, if the "real murderer" who killed Ma Lu is not found now, then they may really meet in the middle of the night! At that time, in the rainforest at night, they will lose their eyes, and they will be completely unable to compete with animals that have lived in nature for a long time. There is absolutely no chance that they will win.

So now they have only two paths: either they don't care about it and run as fast as they can. Bet on whether they can escape from the territory of the "mysterious murderer" before night falls.

And then there's ...... It's better to take the initiative to find the monster and fight it head-on than to wait for the monster to suddenly attack after nightfall.

The tacit understanding that the three of them are working together now almost doesn't need to be spoken. Qin Zhen raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Qi, and also at Gu Jie, waiting for them to make a statement. After seeing such a tragic death of this Ma Lu, it is impossible to continue to pretend to be casual and wait for the dark.

Jiang Qi frowned and took the lead in speaking: "I think it's a blessing or a curse, and it can't be avoided." It's useless for us to run now, even if we don't stop running for a moment, we won't be able to run out of the rainforest before dark, or before dawn. Even if the road is unimpeded, the rainforest will have to be this time tomorrow. So I think, running, is not the way. ”

Qin Zhen nodded, this was similar to what he thought. Then, he turned his head to look at Lao Gu again. Although this product is usually not right at all, it can sometimes play a role at critical moments.

really lived up to Qin Zhen's expectations, Lao Gu didn't have a poor mouth at this time, and he didn't make a mistake, he went back and forth around Ma Lu's wound, and it took a long time before he came out: "Do you think this is the Titan that the natives say?" ”

"Probably not, if it's a Titan Python, how can the wound rot like this? Have you ever seen a snake bite into pieces and swallow it when it eats? Qin Zhen felt that what Ma Lu encountered should not be a python.

At this time, I don't know what Lao Gu's whim, he suddenly began to laboriously prepare to use a steel fork to turn the horse over. Qin Zhen and Jiang Qi glanced at each other in surprise, but when they saw Lao Gu's persistent and serious appearance, they simply went to pick up a few long wooden branches and helped Lao Gu turn over Na Ma Lu.

This big guy is not so easy to turn over, Qin Zhen said while struggling with the wooden stick: "Old Gu, I hope you can give me a reason, why should you turn it over." If you're just for fun, don't blame buddy, I'll leave this for you to be buried with when the time comes. ”

Lao Gu ran back and forth very seriously, and took the time to reply to Qin Zhen in the middle: "Listen to me, if you say that it wasn't the python who did it, then you can know what it was done." I always felt that this dry quagmire was not a good place! ”

After Lao Gu said this, Qin Zhen involuntarily raised his eyes and observed. The dried up quagmire was like an isolated place, with all the normal trees around it far away. The rotten weeds in the middle also have a rotting smell, which is very different from the other shrubs in the jungle.

It's like a fish pond in the rainforest that suddenly dries up, but the part of it is still separated, and although it grows weeds over time, it still feels a little out of place with the rest of the place.

There were some things that seemed to flash through Qin Zhen's mind, but he didn't catch anything at that moment. And at the same time, I heard Lao Gu scolding his ancestors. Immediately afterwards, he and Jiang Qi dragged the unknown Qin Zhen and ran away from that Ma Lu.

Although he walked down just now and didn't know what was going on, Qin Zhen understood that Lao Gu's decision to turn Ma Lu over was right! He must have found something from underneath Malu's corpse!

"Old Gu, speak, what's down there?" Qin Zhen asked a little anxiously.

Lao Gu was nauseated for a while, obviously speechless. Jiang Qi also said with an uncomfortable face: "Qin Zhen, Lao Gu is right, you will know what the murderer is when you turn it over!" It turned out to be a leech!! ”

"Leech??" Qin Zhen was a little surprised. It was hard for him to imagine that he could eat this seven or eight meters long and armor-covered Ma Lu with the size of a leech?

Qin Zhen motioned to Lao Gu not to panic, he wanted to go back and take a look. Lao Gu grabbed Qin Zhen as soon as he grabbed it: "Don't look at it!" I look at that and regret it for the rest of my life! Are you looking for disgust, what's wrong? ”

"When I entered this rainforest, I had already imagined all kinds of disgusting scenes. In other words, from the moment I embarked on this journey, I imagined all kinds of images that I would regret for the rest of my life. Don't worry, I'm fine. Take a look and I'll be right back. After speaking, Qin Zhen took Jiang Qi's wooden branch regardless of dissuasion, and walked to the side of Ma Lu's corpse again. (To be continued......)
