Wes looked at him with a surprised expression and asked: "Squad? Oh my God, I said Bell, we are just going to find an old man who raises snakes. Am I not enough?"
As he spoke, he patted the 5,000-meter deposit that Mr. Pei had just paid him, and continued: "Look at this, I can't spend enough money alone. Do you still want me to share it with you?" other people?"
Bell shrugged. He had already expected this. It was just a routine inquiry. After all, this guy had dealt with him several times. Didn't he already know what kind of temper he had? .
But there is nothing wrong with what Weiss said. For a task like this that is just to find someone, there is indeed no need for more people. After all, the more people there are, the greater the cost will naturally be.
"Okay, Wes, when do we leave? Now? How far is it approximately?"
Weiss took out a map from his pocket, spread it out and looked at it and said, "It's about 100 kilometers. Let's hurry up. We should be there before noon today."
Mr. Bei was stunned: "Do you have a car?"
Weiss laughed and said, "Come, I'll take you to see something good."
Several people followed him to the other end of the village. The village itself was not big, so it only took a few minutes to reach the destination.
"Wow! Is this...a knight-level off-road vehicle!?"
Xiao Shun couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing the large off-road vehicle parked in front of a dilapidated hut.
"This is a car I have always wanted to buy, but it is a limited edition and I have never had the chance to buy it."
He showed an expression full of envy, and the companions beside him also had the same expression.
Although several people have ridden in an anti-gravity vehicle on Rebirth Island, for them currently, they know that it is too far away to own such an off-road vehicle. If they want to buy an off-road vehicle with their financial resources, , it is indeed very easy.
Xiao Shun's words were shouted in Chinese, so Weiss couldn't understand them, but he could understand the other person's expression, so he still felt very useful.
"This is our car, my baby, my lover, so the money you spent today is actually not much at all. You can't see such a beauty everywhere."
At this time, Mr. Bei seemed to suddenly remember something, and subconsciously asked: "Wes, last time you told me that you were married, could it be..."
Weiss patted the car door and said, "Yes, it's her! How about it, isn't she beautiful?"
Mr. Bei suddenly stopped talking. The corners of his mouth twitched and he forced out an awkward rather than polite smile.
"Okay, let's not delay any more and set off quickly. We will try to be back before night. The night outside is not that easy."
Wes said and got into the car first.
At this time, two figures, one large and one small, walked out of the house. They were the owners of the house, the father and son who owned the restaurant.
The boss's youngest son ran straight to the side of the car and said to Wes inside in Lingala:
"Uncle Weiss, please don't go. Dad said that the grassland has been very dangerous recently. Some villagers saw unknown beasts roaming around. Many animals died. No one in the village is going there anymore."
After hearing this, Wes couldn't help but look at the restaurant owner standing under the eaves in the distance, then smiled and touched the head of the child outside the car door, and said: "Don't worry, Pierre, I have this for your uncle Wes. Even powerful beasts are not afraid.”
As he spoke, he patted an automatic rifle beside him and continued: "If that beast dares to come to me without eyes, then let it see how powerful your Uncle Weiss is!"
Hearing this, the little boy looked at the gun in his hand and seemed to understand what it was. Even with the comforting words of the other party, he turned around and left.
These two people spoke the local dialect and spoke very fast. Not only Xiao Shun and the others could not understand, but even Mr. Bei could only understand a few words. It seemed that the little boy was talking about the beasts on the grassland. He didn't want Wes to go, so he didn't take it too seriously.
After all, shouldn’t it be normal for there to be ferocious beasts on the grassland? It's nothing more than a child being afraid. Would a man like him, Lord Bei, standing at the top of the food chain, be afraid of ferocious beasts? joke.
This little episode before leaving just passed by, and no one took it seriously. Xiao Shun and the other three didn't even understand what they were talking about. In the eyes of a few people, the little boy was nothing more than... I couldn't bear to let my savior leave, so I just came here to show off.
The car set off quickly. The temperature this morning was not very high. In order to save energy, a few people did not even turn on the air conditioner. However, the uneven road was really bumpy to walk on. Fortunately, these two knights The performance of the off-road vehicle is also powerful enough, which greatly reduces everyone's discomfort.
At first, there was a small road outside the village that people walked on all year round. But later, when everyone went deeper into the grassland, this road gradually disappeared, and all that was left was dirt. Fortunately, It has been the dry season recently and there has been no rain, otherwise the muddy road would have been more difficult to navigate.
"Speaking of which, this is our second time to the grassland. We didn't see any lions last time. I hope we can see one or two when we pass by this time. I also want to take a photo."
Xiao Shun held the window of the car and looked at the scenery outside eagerly. It had been more than three hours since the group of people came out of the village. Along the way, there were basically grasslands. Occasionally, they could see some animals, but they were all taken away directly. After all, the purpose of everyone coming this time is not to explore, but to complete the mission.
Long-distance travel is very boring, especially on this endless prairie. It is not as easy as people imagine, where you can’t see cattle and sheep even when the wind blows through the grass. Sometimes you may not even be able to see one even after walking a long distance. Animals are no better than the journey on the sea.
"The animals should be gathering at the Welay River in the west now, and we are now heading north to the Duarte Basin. There will be a small valley there, and the witch doctor who raises snakes is there."
Wes spread the map out on the steering wheel and drove the car while looking at it.
"I remember that there seemed to be a pride of lions near here, but that was several years ago. I don't know if they have migrated to other places after such a long time. If we are lucky, we might still be able to get there later. See them..."
As he was talking, suddenly, there was a "bang" sound from the front of the car, as if something had been knocked over. Weiss immediately stepped on the brakes, and everyone in the car couldn't help but rush forward. Fortunately, Everyone was wearing seat belts and there were no injuries.
"What's going on? What was that just now?"
Weiss was startled and quickly looked around to confirm the surrounding situation.
"What did we hit here? It seems to be a black figure. Wait for me for a while, and I'll go down and take a look."
