"squeak--"
The little fairy responded obediently, and then called out to the surrounding jungle.
Although Chen Ziyan couldn't see it, he could hear a series of rustling sounds over there, obviously carrying out his order.
This was not because Chen Ziyan had a kind heart and wanted to collect the bodies of the attackers, nor was he trying to destroy those people's bodies, but he wanted to collect the items on the attackers' bodies.
This is nothing to him. He doesn't need to do it himself anyway. As long as he can get a little gain, he will make money.
Chen Ziyan didn't have to wait long before a weasel appeared in front of him holding a small cloth bag. It could be clearly seen that the bag held by the weasel was actually a piece of clothing fabric.
It can be seen from the blood soaked on it that it should have come from an intruder who was killed in a trap and was used by the weasel to hold things.
This made him couldn't help but take a second look at the weasel in front of him. Being able to do this showed that this weasel was quite intelligent. Even if it was not to the level of a monster, it was still different from ordinary beasts.
After taking the cloth bag held by the weasel, Chen Ziyan gently touched the guy's head as a reward, and then began to examine the contents.
The cloth bag may not seem big, but the contents inside are trivial.
Most of them were ordinary items such as lighters and notebooks, and the only thing of any value was a pistol.
But this is even more useless to Chen Ziyan. What he lacks most now is firearms. After thinking about it, Chen Ziyan picked up the portable notebook.
If there is anything here that will be helpful, it is most likely this notebook.
Unfortunately, when Chen Ziyan opened the notebook with great expectation, there was nothing on it. It was obvious that this was a new notebook.
It seems that the owner of this notebook most likely records every action separately, and this time it has not officially started yet.
Disappointedly, Chen Ziyan put the notebook back into the cloth bag. He simply tied the bag and threw it into the corner next to him.
"boom--"
But before Chen Ziyan could get up, a gunshot suddenly came from a distance.
By the time Chen Ziyan stood up straight, the gunshots were heard continuously, sounding like rain.
"Brother Chen!"
After Yingzi heard the gunfire, she immediately ran out of the tent.
"Don't be anxious." Chen Ziyan signaled Yingzi not to be anxious, and then listened quietly.
He soon discovered that the place where the gunfire rang out was not nearby, but on the other side of the mountain.
"The other side of the mountain? Isn't that the big camp?" Yingzi said after thinking for a while.
"It really looks like that direction." After being reminded by her, Chen Ziyan realized that the sound really came from that camp.
"It looks like something happened." Chen Ziyan thought of the location of the snake mine he found on the map and felt that the accident was probably related to those black-haired snakes.
"Brother Chen, should we go over and take a look?" Yingzi asked.
She didn't want to help, but she wanted to go over and see what was going on.
"Did your dog give a warning?" Chen Ziyan thought for a while and asked.
"No." Yingzi shook his head firmly.
If the dogs stationed around the camp gave a warning, she would certainly not move to the other side of the mountain.
"Then we won't go." Chen Ziyan made a decision immediately after getting the answer.
He knew what dangers there were in this mountainous area, except for the black-haired snake and his nephew. Now that the other party didn't come to provoke him, there was no need for him to take the initiative to get involved.
"Oh." Yingzi was not annoyed when his proposal was rejected, and nodded obediently.
Chen Ziyan looked towards the direction where the gunfire sounded, as if he could see the specific situation there through the thick trees and mountains.
"Master Wu, this incoming thing came and went without a trace. What should we do?" Li Wu, who had just returned to the camp, did not expect such a thing to happen. After arranging his men to defend, he immediately Found Wu Laogou surrounded by dogs.
"Mr. Li, don't you know what is causing the trouble?" Wu Laogou gently stroked the sleeve dog in his arms and asked pointedly.
Although he didn't know the situation here as well as Chen Ziyan, it also gave Wu Laogou fewer choices. After knowing that there was a problem in the snake mine, the first thing he thought of was snakes.
The reason why he asked Li Wu this way was because Wu Laogou learned from conversations with other people that almost all the people who were summoned said that there were alien beasts causing trouble here, and they did not know about the so-called alien beasts at all. What kind, let alone a snake mine.
He specifically mentioned this point at this moment, just to see how true what Chen Ziyan said was true. If it was indeed true, what was going on with the so-called snake mine.
"Since Mr. Wu is asking, I won't hide it. In fact, the purpose of inviting everyone here this time is to solve the problem of the snake cave." Li Wu took a breath and said slowly.
In fact, even if Wu Laogou doesn't ask, Li Wu will reveal some information before starting the operation tomorrow, but it is definitely not the snake cave, but the strange beast causing trouble is a snake.
"Snake den?" Wu Laogou murmured in a low voice.
This is different from what Chen Ziyan said. Even though there is only one word difference between snake cave and snake mine, the actual meaning is completely different. The two are completely different.
Although places that can be called snake caves are not common, they are not too rare. However, this is the first time he has heard of the snake mine. As the name suggests, he can know its general function.
Although I don’t know why snakes are used as mines, mines have always been valuable, and I think this snake will be no exception.
Although it was only the first time that he met Chen Ziyan, Wu Laogou felt at this moment that the thing here was not a snake cave but a snake mine. He had no reason, but he just felt that Chen Ziyan was right.
"Yes, in the valley behind our camp, there is a snake cave that has existed for many years. Due to some special reasons, that place cannot be completely closed, so in the past we regularly put drugs in to make those strange snakes sleep. Recently, For some unknown reason, the drugs used in the past lost their effectiveness, causing these strange snakes to wake up one after another. This is why we invite everyone to come and help."
Li Wu simply told the ins and outs of the whole incident.
"That's not very clear. The ones attacking us now are obviously those strange snakes." Wu Laogou said.
Hearing this, Li Wu smiled bitterly: "Fifth Master, it would be great if it were so simple. Although I can only vaguely see some traces, those things are obviously some kind of beasts."
He also told Wu Laogou that they had long known that there was a snake cave next to them, and they had already made preparations when building the camp, sprinkling realgar and other snake-repelling substances around it.
Although this realgar may not be effective against strange snakes, snakes and insects definitely don't like it and will definitely not take the initiative to attack the camp.
Wu Laogou nodded thoughtfully, Li Wu's words indeed made sense.
Even if they don't think about themselves and others, they still have to think about themselves.
"Manager Li, tell me the truth, are there any other strange beasts here?" Wu Laogou quickly thought of another possibility.
Since the possibility of a strange snake attacking the camp is low, it may be other creatures, and Li Wu also said that the attacking thing is in the form of a beast, wouldn't this be more likely.
"No." Li Wu shook his head without hesitation: "We have always had people staying here, and we have never discovered the existence of a second kind of strange beast."
"Then this is strange." Wu Laogou said softly: "Now it seems that something else is here."
Since they haven't been there before, it means they are new here, and he thinks this may have something to do with the snake mine problem.
Thinking of this, Wu Laogou looked at Li Wu and asked, "Manager Li, will you gain anything from going to Chen Ziyan?"
Just because Chen Ziyan could name the Snake Mine, Wu Laogou dared to conclude that the other party knew the secrets here.
"The protection over there is very tight. I can't get close without making a sound." Li Wu said with emotion.
Wu Laogou understood what he meant. He was afraid of disturbing others, so he retreated halfway.
"Let's find a way to spend tonight first. I'll go visit with you tomorrow." After thinking about it, Wu Laogou said.
According to his original plan, he was to hang out here until the matter was over, but now it was obvious that the trees wanted to be quiet but the wind was not stopping. For the sake of his own safety, he had to take some action.
Bang bang bang——
At this moment, the sound of gunfire in the distance approached quickly. After the two of them looked at each other, they both looked towards the tent door in front of them.
They didn't rush out to check the situation. It was too chaotic outside now, and bullets didn't have eyes. Their mortal bodies couldn't withstand it.
"Awwww——"
At the next moment, the sleeve dog in Wu Laogou's arms suddenly stood up, looked at the right side of the tent and let out a low growl.
When Wu Laogou saw this, he immediately changed direction, and the dogs around him also looked over.
Li Wu had been paying attention to Wu Laogou's movements. When he saw him suddenly turning to the right, he immediately looked over with vigilance.
Cha——
But before Li Wu could finish turning around, the tent cloth on the right side was suddenly torn open, and a creature the size of a civet cat rushed in through the crack, heading straight towards Wu Laogou like a phantom.
"Woof!"
The speed of this creature was so fast that neither Wu Laogou nor Li Wu had time to react.
However, just because they couldn't react in time didn't mean that there wasn't anyone in the tent who could deal with this thing.
Soon enough, just as this thing was about to pounce in front of Wu Laogou, the dog king who was following Wu Laogou had already arrived first, and its sharp fangs went straight towards the creature. Neck away.
Judging from the size of both parties, if the dog king really bites it, this thing will be half disabled even if it is not dead.
Unfortunately, the attacking creature was very alert. After noticing the attack from the Dog King, it changed its direction in mid-air and pounced on Li Wu next to it.
The black-backed dog king was much larger than the opponent, and could not change direction in the air like the opponent, so it was no longer possible to rescue Li Wu.
Li Wu saw the other party attacking towards him, and he knew very well that he could only rely on himself at this moment. He immediately forced himself to change his turning movements to avoid his vital points, and then he had an extra stylus in his hand. The sharp tip of the pen stabbed towards the mysterious creature.
呲——
Li Wu's reaction was not unpleasant, but it was still a moment too slow. The stylus fell on the afterimage of the mysterious creature. At the same time, a scar appeared on his collarbone, and blood spurted out.
Although he failed to intercept, he successfully avoided the vital point.
Seeing that the attack failed to work, the mysterious creature immediately escaped from the tent door without hesitation.
The black-backed dog king originally wanted to attack again, but after seeing the opponent running away without hesitation, he had to give up the idea.
"Mr. Li, it's better to bandage it as soon as possible." Wu Laogou looked a little solemn, but after looking at Li Wu's still bleeding wound, he immediately reminded him.
Li Wu covered his wound with one hand, feeling full of fear. If he hadn't escaped in time, the blow would have landed on his neck. How could he still be alive at that time?
"Fifth Master, don't worry, let's find a safe place first." Thinking of the way the mysterious creature appeared, Li Wu could not care about his own wounds. All he could think about was finding a safe place first.
Although it looked like the wounds were serious, his family knew about his family affairs, and the injuries were far from fatal, so it would be fine if he could be dealt with later.
"Don't worry, that thing won't come here in a short time." Wu Laogou knew what he was thinking, so he comforted him: "That thing is very cunning, and he probably won't do anything he's not sure about."
His words were not without purpose. Although he didn't know the level of those who were summoned, Wu Laogou felt that no one could compare with him.
It seemed that only the Dog King played a role on his side this time, but that was due to the opponent's sudden attack. Next time he was prepared, such a situation would definitely not happen again.
If he had been prepared and surrounded that thing in a group of dogs, it would have been difficult for that guy to run away.
Li Wu hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and said, "Okay, listen to Master Wu."
Although he has a special treasure in his hand, his professionalism is obviously a bit wrong. Now it is better to trust Wu Laogou, an old senior.
The opponent's dog king has already demonstrated its ability. Not to mention that it can defeat that thing, but it is not difficult to drive away the opponent.
Their top priority now is to survive until dawn, otherwise there will be nothing they can do in this dark mountain forest.
This is why no one has chosen to leave the camp until now.
Because everyone knows that they can barely cope in the camp, but if they rashly enter the forest, it will be a huge gamble on their lives.
It's good that the other party doesn't have time to pay attention, but if something catches up, there's only one word of death.
"I'll help you take care of the wound first." Wu Laogou saw that Li Wu was in pain and grinning, knowing that he could no longer take care of the wound himself, so he said.
Now, in a sense, the two of them are bound together. Although they don't both prosper and suffer, they still take care of each other.
And as long as Li Wu is still alive, Wu Laogou will definitely not be the first choice of the mysterious creature. With this prerequisite, he must help Li Wu.
After saying that, without waiting for Li Wu's reply, he took out the medical kit in the tent and began to treat Li Wu's wounds.
