As Zhu Xiang said, the two of them really didn't have anything to do after drinking, and when they were almost over, several people were ready to leave.

At that moment, the middle-aged woman and her husband came out of the back room, each carrying a tightly wrapped basket.

"Are you going to leave?"

"Excuse me, thank you for the tea, we're going to go."

The old man said that he was going to lead everyone to the direction of the exit of the courtyard.

"Bring these things with you!"

The middle-aged woman and her husband hurried to the front of several people and handed the basket to Lao Geng and Shen Huan respectively, but neither of them planned to take it. net

"Take it, this is a live pheasant sprinkled with a special powder, if you encounter a beast on the way back, you can throw the pheasant out, the smell on it can attract the beast to not pay attention to you for a while."

The middle-aged woman's husband shook the basket in his hand again as he spoke, thinking that he would continue to stalemate for a while, but he didn't expect Shen Huan to take the basket from him neatly and thank him.

Seeing this, the old man also took the basket from the middle-aged woman, and the group said goodbye to the husband and wife and returned along the same road.

Although there were real people from Zhongsha District on the road, fortunately, there were only three or two people on the other side, and there were so many of them, even if they coveted the appearance of a few women, it was not good to do it now, and they all accelerated back to their camps, ready to take them down before they left.

"Sir, shall we return as soon as possible, or shall we wait?"

Although the husband and wife who entertained them were no longer in sight, the old man with the basket always felt that the couple was definitely not so kind, so he deliberately kept the basket at a certain distance from his body.

"Let's take a look at what's in the basket first."

Shen Huan said and put the basket directly on the ground, and at the same time motioned to the rest of the people to step back, and when he gently opened the sealed lid on the basket, he saw that two pheasants slightly larger than the pigeon were tied together, and as the lid was opened, a smell with a light smell of blood and a little grass fragrance was emanating in wisps.

Now they are still some distance away from the beast gathering area of the Thorn Belt, so they won't attract the beasts for the time being.

But the smell of ordinary people was more than ten times magnified in Zhu Xiang's smell, so she easily recognized the strange ingredients, and quickly waved her hand with a frightened face.

"Get out of the way!"

Although everyone didn't know why, their bodies did as she said, and the old man also put the basket he was carrying far away from everyone.

"Miss Xiang, this is ......"

"Let's put it this way, the effect of spices on these pheasants is indiscriminate, and it is very diffuse, and if we really throw the pheasants out when we encounter a beast, we will also get the smell of spices on our bodies, and the beasts will not only not avoid us, but will attack us even harder because of their greed for prey!"

As he spoke, Zhu Xiang looked at the two people who had drunk the licoleaf grass water just now, and said again.

"The licoleaf grass you two drink doesn't seem wrong in itself, but if you meet an ingredient called 'Collision Fragrance' in the basket, it will again multiply the effect of these spices on you!"

"Will they not take revenge then?"

The two of them said angrily almost in unison.

"There is no way to talk about 'enmity' in the first place, and we have never known us, let alone 'enmity', this is just a means they use to trap and force us into the net."

Qi Xu suddenly spoke at this time.

"How?"

Even the old man couldn't react, so why did he become the "trapping and persecution" of the four people.

"This is not the place to talk."

Shen Huan looked at the appearance of a group of four or five people not far away who were about to come over to provoke, so he reminded everyone.

Because of going

On the way to the couple's residence, they noticed a low-lying place along the way that happened to be shaded by a few trees that were still growing, so they went straight to that place until they confirmed that no one had tracked them, and then Shen Huan signaled to Qi Xu to tell what he had just discovered.

"We just walked all the way from the Thorn Belt, although we heard the roar of the tiger in front, but in fact, the beasts are all in the second half of the road, that is to say, if we really encounter the inevitable beasts on the way back and have to take out pheasants to deal with them, when the beasts find something strange on us and want to attack us, the best way to escape is to return to the Zhongsha District, and then I'm afraid those four people will already be waiting for us at the exit of the Thorn Belt!"

"But why would they do anything more? Wouldn't it be easier to take us down while we were resting at their quarters?"

Although Ah Jin felt that what she said made some sense, after seeing that after the young and confident girl finished speaking, several people nodded in understanding, and she deliberately asked.

"Of course it won't be more convenient," Qi Xu didn't feel affected by her deliberate provocation, and said slowly, "Several of us are all very vigilant in the small courtyard, and we don't even drink the water they provide, and the nearest camp is also some distance away from their small courtyard, if we really want to run, they may not be able to take us down, and if we use a strategy, it will be different......

"When the time comes, when we rush out of the thorn belt, whether we meet the people of the Zhongsha District who no longer hide it, or the people who still pretend to be kind and save us, we will have no choice but to become the target of their casual oppression and trampling like other people who have strayed into the Zhongsha District."

As her words fell, everyone finally understood at this time that they couldn't figure it out, if it was really like what she said, they would no longer be the active attacker, but would directly fall into a passive state, let alone save people, and self-protection would be a problem.

"In addition, if you pay close attention to what the middle-aged woman said on the phone, you should find some hidden information, such as when she proved her identity, she said that she had nine days to live, the eldest brother was five years older than herself, the second brother was four years older than herself, and her current husband was also from the south, and he was brought in from the thorns to find someone and was finally left here, and he was lucky not to be killed by hunting and knowing some pharmacology...... In fact, these are all messages referring to a few of us, a total of nine people, five men and four women, all of whom speak southern dialect, and may even be southerners, because they came in to find people who were brought here by her, and 'hunting and 'knowing pharmacology' are probably the code words they want to wipe us out......

Listening to her analysis, everyone was secretly shocked again, but they had to admit that what she said might be true, after all, these are not too important information, but the middle-aged woman was babbling on the phone with relish, and it was such a coincidence.

"Do you have any new plans for the future?"

Time is pressing, maybe when those people from Zhongsha District who are chasing after them will find them, Lao Geng is not sure what Shen Huan thinks, so he asked.

"Split up, but with adjustments."

In fact, he originally planned to divide everyone into two groups, and originally planned to meet the people in the Zhongsha District, depending on the situation at the scene, let some people pretend to be tied up and capture the people from the camp and enter the enemy camp together, while the other part of the people took the opportunity to escape and hide and find another opportunity to deal with the arrested people.

"You should have seen just now, there are at least two camps of people eyeing us, but there may not be the camp of the well boss we are going to, so we need to leave a few people to drag the people of these camps, and the others will go with me to save people."

"I'm willing to stay!"

"Me too!"

The two young men who had drunk licoleaf, knowing that their adventure had almost dragged down the whole team, offered to stay, hoping to make up for their mistakes.

"No, you two can keep one of you, and the other ...... Uncle, I hope you and Ah Xiang will stay together, and the three of you will protect your safety first, and then wait for the opportunity to come out and join us."

"Sir, this is not appropriate......

Hearing Shen Huan call his name, although Lao Geng knew that he had his own discretion in doing so, his first task was to cooperate

Shen Huan's actions, but he really didn't want Shen Huan to take these few inexperienced people to take on an adventure together, although he also had limited experience, but in terms of his understanding of the Zhongsha District, at least compared to others other than Shen Huan.

However, with a majestic look at Shen Huan, he said to his lips, and finally changed it to comply.

When the old man left with the two of them, the man surnamed Wu looked at Shen Huan with some words.

He knew that the person with the most voice on this trip was Shen Huan, but this arrangement was indeed a peaceful ...... Zhu Xiang is unfavorable, Zhu Xiang looks like a weak woman who is powerless, how can she withstand these barbarians in the Zhongsha District? Even if there is Lao Geng and that colleague, it will be difficult for the two of them to protect themselves, let alone protect Zhu Xiang.

"If you have anything to ask, just ask now."

Shen Huan saw his question, but he didn't intend to take the initiative to answer it.

"I...... I know that Mr. Shen has his own intentions, and I just need to do my own thing."

Although the man surnamed Wu was puzzled, but due to the restrictions of rules and responsibilities, he finally chose not to ask, and at the same time put away his doubts and inquiring eyes, but some people couldn't hold back.

"He doesn't ask me to ask," it was Ah Jin who spoke, "I know that you have the most authority, but I don't understand, why do you have to arrange it this way, that Xiang girl doesn't even seem to have the ability to protect herself, so you just let Lao Geng and Ah Shun go with her to lure those people away, don't you let Lao Geng and Ah Shun go to death?"

Her words came and spoke quickly, and she had already blurted out all of them without waiting for the man surnamed Wu to stop her, which immediately attracted Shen Huanruo's substantial gaze.

"Look...... See what I do? Shouldn't I question it?"

Although this gaze made her can't help but feel a trembling feeling in her heart, she felt that this was a reasonable question, even if she went to the headquarters and she was punished for questioning her boss, she had no regrets, she really couldn't watch Lao Jian and his companion being dragged into the water by a woman who looked useless.
