Chapter 342: Bloodthirsty Leaf
"They have guns. The medicine picker was stunned by Sun Yuyan's slap and screamed.
Sun Yuyan was also stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said to Xu Mo: "Xu, don't go over, they have guns." ”
Xu Mo looked back and smiled: "Don't worry, it'll be fine, I'll go over and take a look." ”
Sun Yuyan was stunned, she and Xu Mo were not very familiar, so they didn't know his ability. After hesitating, he started the car, ready to drive away if the momentum was not right.
Then he pulled out a delicate pistol from his pouch. This pistol has been carried with her since the accident of her eldest brother Sun Yufeng.
The medicine picker was still urging, "Let's go quickly, he's crazy, that person is crazy, leave him alone." ”
Sun Yuyan ignored her and looked back at Xu Mo.
Xu Mo walked to the edge of the hillside, and the open-top off-road vehicles under the hillside quickly drove up. There were several people in each car, and each of them, except for the driver, had a submachine gun in his hand.
Xu Mo stretched out his hand to stop, "Wait a minute." ”
A middle-aged man on one of the off-road vehicles seemed to be the leader of this group, glanced at Xu Mo, and did not answer Xu Mo, and coldly ordered: "Kill him." ”
More than a dozen people raised their guns at the same time and aimed them at Xu Mo. The medicine picker saw this scene through the back glass of the car, and screamed in fright, and Sun Yuyan's face also changed color.
Xu Mo was annoyed that the man was rude, and said angrily: "It's better for you to die first." As he spoke, he swung out the whip of the soul, and the leader's body shook, and he fell off the off-road vehicle, and died instantly.
"Team leader, team leader. A man next to the leader saw it. Taken aback, he screamed twice, but the leader agreed.
Then he looked at Xu Mo and asked loudly, "You killed him, did you kill the team leader?"
Xu Mo sneered: "You can speak now." ”
The man's face changed, and then he said to the others, "This man killed the team leader, kill him quickly." ”
The guns in the hands of the others had already been aimed at Xu Mo, and when they heard this, they moved their fingers, ready to pull the trigger.
Xu Mo said: "Let's stop." The whip of the soul was swung out, and the group was all frozen.
"Damn, what did you do to them? What kind of magic is this?" said one of the drivers as he saw his companion. I couldn't help but get up from my seat. Loud roaring, frightened voice.
Several other drivers also stood up, and two of them, seeing that the momentum was not good, jumped out of the car. Turn around and flee. Xu Mo's spiritual whip was swung. The two drivers immediately passed out.
The driver who spoke earlier was horrified, "You killed them?"
Xu Mo said: "I'm not dead yet." It's hard to say after a while. Okay, now it's time to talk, let's talk. Who are you?"
The driver's face changed several times, looking very exciting, he looked at the others, then at Xu Mo, and reached out to touch his waist. Xu Mo followed his gesture and looked at his waist.
The driver had a pistol pinned to his waist, but he didn't have the courage to pull it out after all, sighed, and removed his hand.
Xu Mo smiled and asked again, "Can you say it now?"
The driver said in a hoarse voice, "If I say it, I will definitely die." ”
Xu Mo said: "If you don't say it, you will die, and if you say it, you can at least live for a while longer." ”
The driver hesitated for a moment, and then said to Xu Mo: "If I say it, you promise not to kill me?"
Xu Mo said lightly: "Your life is meaningless to me. ”
The driver's face changed again, and after a while, he gritted his teeth, as if he had finally made a difficult decision, and said in a hoarse voice: "What do you want to know?"
Xu Mo asked, "Who are you ordered to do, and why do you want to hunt them down?"
The driver bowed his head and said nothing.
Xu Mo smiled: "What's the matter?
The driver raised his head, shook his head, and said, "I don't know who you ask us for." ”
"What?" This time it was Xu Mo's turn to be surprised, his sixth sense was able to distinguish whether others were lying or not, and the driver's words were obviously true.
After thinking for a while, he asked again, "Why are you chasing and killing her?"
The driver hesitated for a moment before saying, "We were ordered to guard the bloodthirsty leaves, and they came to steal them." ”
"Bloodthirsty leaves?" Xu Mo's expression remained unchanged, knowing that the so-called bloodthirsty leaves must refer to the kind of blades that are like claws.
The driver explained: "It is a wild parasitic plant that grows on the cliffs in the Mengshan Mountains. It can penetrate into the human body through the wounds on the human body and parasitize in the blood. ”
Xu Mo nodded, "I know this, whose orders do you follow to guard the bloodthirsty leaves here?"
"It's the team leader. The driver replied very dryly, and looked at the middle-aged man who had been killed by Xu Mo with the Whip of the Heart.
Xu Mo was stunned for a moment, the middle-aged man was killed by him, so it was naturally impossible to ask anything again, and then asked, "You are directly ordered by this person?"
The driver explained, "He's our team leader, and we're all mercenaries from the battlefield, recruited to guard the bloodthirsty leaves. ”
Xu Mo asked again, "Who recruited you?"
The driver said, "It's still the team leader." After a pause, he said: "The team leader may know a little bit about the question you want to ask, but we don't know about it." ”
Xu Mo said again: "What is the purpose of your guarding the bloodthirsty leaf?"
The driver said: "The first purpose, you have already seen, is to prevent someone from stealing leaves, once discovered, kill them." Also, every once in a while, someone will come from outside and pick the ripe leaves and take them away. ”
"Do you recognize the people who came from outside?" Xu Mo then asked.
The driver shook his head and said, "I don't know, they negotiated directly with the team leader." ”
At this time, Sun Yuyan and the medicine picker had already discovered something unusual. Sun Yuyan said: "Things have changed, Xu seems to have subdued them, let's go over and take a look." ”
The goddess of medicine picked up hesitated, sat in her seat and didn't want to move.
Sun Yuyan was worried that she would take advantage of her departure and drive away without permission, urging her to get out of the car with her. "You come with me. ”
The medicine picker had no choice but to follow Sun Yuyan out of the car, and the two walked in the direction of Xu Mo. Before he got closer, Sun Yuyan said, "Xu, are you okay?"
Xu Mo said: "I'm fine." ”
Sun Yuyan and the medicine picker girl walked closer and saw the mercenary standing like a statue, and became more and more surprised, "They ...... What's wrong with them?"
Xu Mo smiled and said lightly: "They are tired, I will let them rest for a while." ”
Sun Yuyan was bold. Got under the nose of a mercenary. "And breathing, this ...... Allow...... Did they get a point from you?"
Sun Yuyan doesn't read current or previous casual novels, but is influenced by martial arts movies and TV series. I saw these people standing still. I thought I was pointed at by Xu Mo.
Xu Mo didn't explain either. "Pretty much. ”
The driver was reminded by Sun Yuyan and looked at Xu Mo in disbelief, "It turns out that you can point points." No, you didn't touch them just now, could it be that you have practiced qigong? can you fight cattle across the mountains?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the dead middle-aged man, "Our team leader, was you killed by you?"
Xu Mo listened to the driver's random speculation, and was amused in his heart, noncommittal.
The driver muttered to himself, "No wonder, no wonder, no wonder we didn't have the strength to fight back, it turns out that there really are legendary martial arts masters in this world." ”
Sun Yuyan and the medicine picker were misled by the driver's words again, and their eyes were a little strange when they looked at Xu Mo. The medicine picker stared at Xu Mo and exclaimed, "No wonder you refuse to go, it's so powerful." ”
Without waiting for Xu Mo to agree, he turned to the driver, became sad again, and said angrily: "What about my companions?
The driver glanced at Xu Mo, and then returned: "Two of them were indeed killed by us, and the other two are not dead for the time being, but even if they are not dead, they will not live long." ”
"What did you say, what did you live for?, what did you do to them?" asked the herb picker in a loud voice.
The driver said helplessly: "We didn't do anything, it was their own carelessness that parasitized bloodthirsty leaves in their bodies, and bloodthirsty leaves absorb blood, and in a few days, the blood in their bodies will be sucked dry." So they don't need us to do it, they can't live. ”
The expression on the face of the herb picker was uncertain, "What bloodthirsty leaves?" Although she knew the claw-like leaves of the Dao, she did not know the name of the leaves of the Dao.
The driver said, "It's the leaf you want to steal." ”
"Steal?" the goddess of herb picking was annoyed, "the leaves are ownerless, we are just picking leaves." ”
The driver didn't argue with her, and said flatly: "The purpose of our stay here is to protect the bloodthirsty leaf." ”
"Guard?" the herb picker was annoyed, "the leaves are not yours, why are you guarding them?
The driver sighed and said: "We are just acting on orders, and killing people is also a last resort, maybe you didn't see the warning sign outside, which reads - 'Dangerous area, idlers do not approach'." Bloodthirsty Leaf is very important to our employer, all those who covet Leaf, must be killed, and at the same time, we must prevent the news of Bloodthirsty Leaf from leaking out. ”
The color of the goddess of medicine picking changed again, and they saw the warning signs outside, but no one took it seriously, and as soon as they picked a few leaves, this group of mercenaries chased after them.
"Okay, don't make any noise. Xu Mo stopped the two from arguing, and said to the driver: "Are you the only mercenaries who are guarding the bloodthirsty leaves?"
The driver nodded, "Yes, it's just us." ”
Xu Mo asked again: "When will the people who are collecting medicine outside come over?"
The driver thought for a while, "Not necessarily, sometimes it's three or five days, sometimes it's seven or eight days, and sometimes it's ten days and half a month." ”
Xu Mo asked, "How long has it been since the last leaf picking?"
The driver recalled for a moment, and counted on his fingers, "Probably, well, eight days, yes, eight days." ”
Xu Mo said: "So, the leaf pickers are likely to come?"
"Yes. The driver nodded, then shook his head again, "Not necessarily." ”
Xu Mo said: "Okay, you take us to the place you are guarding to have a look." ”
"What about them?" the driver looked at his accomplice.
Xu Mo said: "Let's go together." Turning to Sun Yuyan and the medicine picker, "You two, confiscate their guns." ”
"Xu. Sun Yuyan gently pulled Xu Mo and whispered, "Let's not do too much, right? There's nothing to see either. ”
Xu Mo shook his head, the reason why he followed him was not for the bloodthirsty leaf. But this kind of strange leaves, which are harmful to people, are not strange to be collected by some people? Therefore, I wonder what those people are collecting these leaves for?
Specially hired such a group of mercenaries to guard it, what kind of organization is hidden behind it? Could it be related to Lin Jue?
With his temperament. It wouldn't have been too much of a problem. But thinking of Lin Jue. You have to go and see it. said to Sun Yuyan at the moment: "These people may be related to Lin Jue, let's go over and take a look." ”
When Sun Yuyan heard Lin Jue, hatred suddenly appeared on his face, and he stopped persuading.
Her eldest brother was injected with genetic drugs by Lin Jue's people. Turned into a carp. was given to Lin Jue by her own hands. This is her life from childhood to adulthood. The most regrettable thing. When I think of Lin Jue and his people, I can't wait to eat his flesh and sleep his skin.
I heard Xu Mo say that this group of people may be related to Lin Jue, whether it is true or not. No matter how big the danger is, she has to go over and see. What's more, there is no danger at all now.
Greet the herb picker: "Hey, you and I will put away their guns." ”
The medicine picker agreed, and she confiscated the firearms with Sun Yuyan. This group of mercenaries was frozen by Xu Mo's spiritual whip, and they had no power to resist, and they were easily snatched away by the two of them.
The submachine guns were so heavy that the two young women were extremely inconvenient to hold them in their hands, so they pushed a few mercenaries out of the car, vacated an empty car, threw the submachine guns into the car, and each took a pistol in his hand.
Xu Mo saw that they had collected their firearms, so he withdrew the whip of his soul and let go of the mercenaries. During the time when these mercenaries were imprisoned by the whip of his mind, although their bodies could not move, their eyes could see and their ears could hear. Therefore, Xu Mo and the driver's answers were all listened to. At this time, there was no firearm in his hand, and he was afraid of Xu Mo's power, so no one dared to step forward and make a move.
"Alright, now take us to your camp. You...... You...... You...... You guys drive. Xu Mo didn't care about the unconscious driver on the ground, he pointed at a few people at random and ordered them to drive, these people are all mercenaries, so they don't have to worry about not being able to drive.
The group did not resist, got into the car, and drove towards the camp. It was only halfway through that an off-road vehicle suddenly picked up speed and rushed towards the spur, apparently trying to escape.
Xu Mo snorted coldly, the whip of the soul was swung, the people in the car fainted instantly, the car was unmanned, and with a loud bang, it hit the stone wall, and then turned over.
Xu Mo threatened: "Whoever is trying to escape, will end up like them." ”
The mercenary was frightened, and there were still a few people who planned to run away like the car just now, but seeing this scene, he immediately dispelled his thoughts.
Xu Mo then ordered: "Okay, leave them alone, continue to drive forward." ”
Those people were knocked unconscious by his spiritual whip, and after the off-road vehicle overturned, they caught fire, and if they were not saved, they would have to be burned to death.
But this group of mercenaries was suppressed by Xu Mo, and no one dared to object.
The car continued to drive forward, the mountain road was very steep, and it took about half an hour to reach a valley. There is a big iron sign at the mouth of the valley, and there are several blood-red characters written on the sign - dangerous area, idlers should not approach.
There is also a barbed wire fence next to the iron sign, which connects to the cliff, blocking the road, leaving only one of the roads.
Xu Mo couldn't help but glance at the medicine picker, in such an environment, they actually dared to break in to collect medicine, and their courage was really not small.
The driver who was questioned by Xu Mo was in a car with Xu Mo, Sun Yuyan, and the medicine picker, and Xu Mo ordered him to drive an off-road vehicle.
At this time, the driver said: "Bloodthirsty leaves are only found in Mengshan, growing on cliffs, growing conditions are relatively harsh, it is difficult to raise artificially, mainly wild." There are cliffs elsewhere, but they are rare, mainly in this valley. ”
When Xu Mo heard this, he couldn't help but exchange a look with Sun Yuyan, Lin Zhi didn't meet this group of mercenaries, the climb was obviously somewhere else, and it was just an accident that he met Bloodthirsty Ye.
The driver glanced back at the medicine picker, "If you want bloodthirsty leaves, look for them elsewhere, you may not find them, you shouldn't break into here." ”
The herb picker snorted and asked, "Where are their companions?"
The driver said: "It should still be in the old place, no one touches the dead, and no one wants to touch the one who is parasitized by the bloodthirsty leaves." ”
The herb picker asked, "What should I do if I am parasitized, and how can I cure them?"
The driver shook his head and sighed, "It's not curable, it's a bloodthirsty leaf, and after it is parasitic in the human body, it will be scattered into small pieces." It gets smaller and smaller, and as the blood, enters all parts of the human body, absorbs blood, and even begins to multiply, it will only grow more and more. ”
The medicine picker's face was extremely ugly, and she couldn't help but shudder when she imagined the scene that the driver said.
Sun Yuyan glanced at Xu Mo, but did not speak.
The driver drove the SUV and continued to drive into the valley. The terrain within the valley is complex, with standing cliffs everywhere that divide the valley into many roads.
Xu Mo looked at the cliff, and could vaguely see a few bloodthirsty leaves, hidden among the weeds and vines, but they were not dense, occasionally one or two leaves could be seen, and sometimes one could not even be seen on one cliff.
In the depths of the valley, it was a little more.
There was a fork in the road ahead, the driver stopped the car, stretched out his hand and pointed to a road in front of him, and said to Xu Mo: "This road leads to our camp." Then he pointed to another way, glanced at the medicine picker, and continued: "Their people are on the other road, which way shall we go?"
The goddess of medicine collection looked at Xu Mo nervously, obviously wanting Xu Mo to save her companion first, but she didn't know how to speak. What's more, the driver said that his companion was parasitized by bloodthirsty leaves, and after being parasitized, no one wanted to touch it, obviously because there was a possibility of infection.
In addition, even if she was saved, she would not be able to help them diagnose and treat them.
"Xu. Sun Yuyan called Xu Mo, Xu Mo has the ability to diagnose and treat people who are parasitized by bloodthirsty leaves, of course she knows the truth. Looking at her expression, it means to save people.
"Hmm. Xu Mo's thoughts were similar to her, and by the way, he saved people, and he couldn't delay for long. Tell the driver, "Go and save people first." (To be continued......)
