Chapter 422: 'Saving People'

Not to mention intelligent creatures, even if they are low-level animals, most of them will not do anything unless they are in a desperate situation.

"Cannibalism" is bound to be a barbaric and brutal act in any civilization, although the Hellfire and the Terrestrial are very different in appearance, it is undeniable that they both belong to the same 'human', and the shock shown by Zhang Lisheng is naturally not exaggerated in the eyes of the Terrestrial People.

Seeing that her words had an effect, the tall woman continued to hoarse her voice and gushed, "You come from a distant country in a foreign continent, so naturally you have never heard of the cruelty and horror of these Hell people.

Cannibalism is nothing to them at all, these people are not ridiculous 'little dwarfs', but brutal barbarians who have destroyed countless civilized countries in our 'Oasis Continent'!"

"They are very brave when hunting, but, I really can't tell what kind of brutal barbarians they are, and they also eat people, this, I really can't see it, I really can't see it..."

Looking at his disappearing back, the tall woman was silent for a moment, then suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Navigator Hano, will he be our hope?"

"I can't see it yet, but it's not reliable to pin my hope on a stranger who has only met twice," the thin man muttered in another stone circle, his face pale, "but in this case, he can be regarded as a 'straw' floating in the sea..."

In this way, Zhang Lisheng got his wish and became a lifesaver in the eyes of these prisoners. But at this time, he wanted to stop communicating with those prisoners, and always kept his head down and did things silently when he went to deliver food.

On the contrary, the land-based people in the stone circle began to be around him through the cage and constantly croaked, most of them were talking about their longing for their relatives at home.

After three or four days in this way, Zhang Lisheng calculated that it was time to increase the fire at the critical moment, and at noon he brought food to the landers, and after walking into the jungle with an embarrassed face, his expression changed, and he smiled and ordered to the Wu Litou people who came up: "Tugla, you immediately go and summon a few more warrior leaders to eat the two prisoners." Well. This time, I'm looking for a woman with rough hands. ”

"Conqueror. Wu Litou replied respectfully, turned around and hurriedly retreated.

A few minutes later, four powerful native warriors riding giant spiders used their spears to cut through the jungle and appeared in front of the prisoners. Soon the two women in the stone circle where the female landers were imprisoned wailed and turned into fatty barbecue.

When Zhang Lisheng approached the stone circle again at night carrying a wooden barrel full of food mixed with the local miscellaneous labor. I found that most of the prisoners' faces had turned pale, and I couldn't help but feel very satisfied. On the surface, he did what he had to do without expression.

Seeing that the young man came to the cage silently scooped up the thick meat porridge with a long-handled wooden spoon, and shook his body uncertainly, the tall woman who had often spoken to him in the past few days suddenly stood up. Walking to the edge of the stone circle, he looked into the eyes of the young man and said, "Today two more of us have been eaten by the Hellmen, their names are Lisa and Feli.

Lisa is a mother of four, and her husband was originally a security officer in the last lord's personal guard of Venis, but he was stabbed in the lobe of the lung while chasing robbers, and the family had to..."

"What does this have to do with me, I'm just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who has mastered some 'martial arts', and I'm not a god or bullshit hero who is said to be able to slaughter thousands of demons.

My wounds have healed, and I won't come back tomorrow to bring you food, and I will resume my life of hunting beasts, and I may die in obscurity at some point.

I know what it means that you and that thin man talk to me every day when they see me, but I can't save you, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't have the ability..."

"You have the ability to save us," Zhang Li's angry voice sounded behind him as soon as his angry words fell, "I am a navigator, I know this sea area well, and my companions are all very good sailors, no matter what kind of ship we can control."

So as long as you cut these bark ropes with a knife at night and let us out, we can sneak out to the beach and grab a boat and fly away, not only for us, but also for you.

As you said, if you stay on this island and live a life of hunting beasts every day, you may be eaten by wild beasts in obscurity at some point, and you will not necessarily end up better than us.

Even if you have been lucky and can survive peacefully, can you be willing to stay on this wild island for the rest of your life, maybe you don't think it now, but think about it carefully, what about a year, two years, ten years, do you think you will always be willing to sit on such a desert island and be the companion of the natives..."

"Don't say it, don't say it, don't say it!" Zhang Lisheng turned around and angrily looked at the thin man with a look of pity behind him, and roared.

"I'll just say one more thing at the last minute," said the thin man, looking directly at the young man's distorted face without fear, "I found that those Hell people did not fatten us up, but treated us as some kind of reward, for those meritorious warriors to choose and eat."

If you're going to get us out, make a quick decision, because everyone's tastes are different, and if one day Captain Anduchi or I are eaten, you won't be able to escape. ”

"Don't worry, I'm eating and drinking well on the island, but I don't have the heart to take such a big risk to save you people I don't know..."

After this departure, the prisoners in the stone circle did not see him for a long time, and time passed in a hurry, and more than ten days passed unconsciously.

That night, when the natives had fallen asleep, suddenly a nimble figure jumped out of a simple bark house on the edge of the Wuli ancestral land, running and jumping like an ape into the jungle, and moving silently and quickly before coming to the cage where the landers were imprisoned.

"Thin man, thin man, are you still alive," the figure curled up in the moonlight, hesitated, and shouted in a low voice, "Thin man, if you are alive, speak out quickly, or I will go." ”

"Alive, I'm still alive, is that you, stranger boy?" The thin man who was lying on a filthy leaf, looking up at the bright moon and stars, and who had not slept late at night, got up with a spirit, suppressed his excitement, and replied in a trembling voice.

"What a foreign boy, I'll be your savior right away, my name is Li Sheng, you remember. Zhang Lisheng said softly: "Quickly call everyone in the stone circle, don't make a sound, I'll break the rope and take you away, it's not too early, and you have to flee to the beach." ”

As he spoke, the young man took out a bottle carved from solid wood from his waist, opened the wooden cork, and dripped some colorless and transparent liquid on the thick rope that bound the stone circle, and when the rope was completely wet, he grabbed both ends of the rope with both hands, gritted his teeth and pulled it suddenly, and he would break the rope at once.

At this time, the thin man had already woken up his companions, and a young man in the crowd who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old at most saw Zhang Lisheng breaking the thick rope that had trapped hundreds of people for more than 20 days with his bare hands in the moonlight, and couldn't help blurting out in shock: "Teacher, this stranger has so much strength!"

The bare hands are so strong, and it must be even more remarkable if they take up arms, and such a strong man is afraid of the Hellman."

A tall old man beside the young man with snow-white hair covered in mud and dirt lowered his voice and said, "Master Anita, this stranger is not as powerful as you think.

The reason why he was able to break the rope was actually the liquid that had been dripping on the rope beforehand, and if my guess was correct, his weapon was his own fists, so he didn't steal a knife to cut the rope..."

"You old man is very knowledgeable, yes, the most powerful weapon of our warrior monks is their own body, and they rely on their hands to deal with any strong enemy. Zhang Lisheng said and pulled the second rope, "Okay, you should be able to get out of such a big gap, I'll go and break the rope of the stone circle, and then we'll hurry to the beach." ”

The gap between the two ropes was already the size of a wellhead, and the men looked at the gap in ecstasy but did not fight, but climbed out of the stone circle one by one according to their status.

After Zhang Lisheng broke the rope of the other stone circle, he inadvertently saw that the people who climbed out of the cage first were all gathered in front of the gap to help their companions escape from the shackles of the stone circle, everything seemed to be orderly, and his mouth couldn't help but murmur in a voice close to nothing: "It seems that they live in a world world that is orderly but civilized enough..."

"We were all unconscious when we were locked in this animal pen, and we can go in that direction in a while, so we can reach the beach" The thin man who had been quietly paying attention to Zhang Lisheng saw that after he broke the ropes of the two stone circles, he fell into deep thought under the bright moonlight, thought about it, walked to the young man and asked.

"To the west," Zhang Lisheng replied when he came back to his senses, "this little man, no, the tribe of the Hell has occupied the entire island, and the western coastline is full of docks and harbors, and some small harbors with old ships are not guarded at all, so it is not a problem to steal a boat." ”

Hearing what the young man said, the thin man suddenly smiled and said, "Li Sheng, it seems that you have long wanted to escape, right?"

"Of course, if I could become a hundred and eighty petals by myself, and all of them could sail a big ship, I would have stolen a ship and left..."Zhang Lisheng sighed, "That's so, but in fact, it's very difficult to make up your mind, after all, it's about your own life, if this kind of thing is discovered, there is only one way to die."
