Zhu Yu's shout rang out, and Tomoko Haruta, who was running at the front, turned around and glanced, still a little confused as to why Zhu Yu was shouting.
But she has discovered that Zhu Yu is facing the exact direction she is facing!
At the same time, she also saw that the expressions of the two guides following her changed from calm to panic!
Looking at yourself or behind you is extremely complicated!
There is fear, there is pity, there is fear!
I have to say that this Japanese girl's reaction was very fast. She didn't even look back to see what was behind her, she just rolled forward towards the two guides and turned over!
Then she felt a fishy smell coming from the top of her head, and a black shadow seemed to flick on top of her head, then shrank back!
Tomoko Haruta was so frightened that she rolled and crawled towards the guide. She was too short to get up because she was afraid that she would be swallowed by that big guy!
In Zhu Yu's view, a python head as big as a coffee table poked out from the bushes and was about to swallow Haruta Tomoko!
Fortunately, Haruta Tomoko reacted quickly and rolled forward to avoid being swallowed by the python's head. The giant python missed the blow and retracted, but then its body immediately twisted and chased Haruta Tomoko and the others!
It didn't even have the slightest fear of the two guides and Tomoko Haruta here!
But it's normal to think about it. For its huge size, three people can only be equivalent to a dinner.
Nothing!
The two guides were also frightened. Although this snake was not as big as the snake that shed last night, it could still easily swallow a person due to the exaggerated opening of its mouth!
One of the guides immediately pointed his gun at the snake and shot it in a short burst!
The other one had already pulled Haruta Tomoko back. Although they had no respect for Haruta Tomoko during the previous treasure hunt, the guides knew that the treasure would eventually fall on this Japanese woman.
At least before getting the treasure, this woman can't make any mistakes!
After the giant python was hit by a bullet, a few blood spots appeared in its skin, but the injury was not serious. But this attack made the giant python go crazy. Its forward movement suddenly accelerated, and the broken walls in front of it were immediately smashed to pieces.
Those vines that were very difficult for the treasure hunting team to cut were as useless in front of the power of the giant python, and they were unable to stop it at all!
The giant python quickly rushed to the guide who fired the gun. The python raised its head and grabbed it fiercely. It bit the guide and the gun in one bite, then raised its neck and swallowed him!
The guide's scream only lasted half a sound before disappearing. This half scream made people feel even more terrifying!
When Haruta Tomoko heard the screams, she rolled and crawled through the back of another guide, and then ran desperately in the direction of Zhu Yu and the others.
The remaining guide originally had the courage to resist, but after rescuing Tomoko Haruta and seeing his companion being swallowed by a giant python, his courage was gone.
The automatic rifle in his hand was aimed at the giant python, and "bang bang bang bang bang" was a long burst!
After firing all the bullets, he turned around and ran back to the road without even looking at the results.
After swallowing a person, the python was obviously not satisfied, or it was not enough to calm his anger at being shot.
After swallowing the person in his mouth in a few mouthfuls, the giant python quickly swam towards Zhu Yu and the others.
Wherever they passed, walls were crushed and vines were torn off!
"Run!" When she ran to Zhu Yu and the others, Tomoko Haruta didn't forget to remind Croya.
Zhu Yu also said to Croya:
"Go to the back and be careful."
"What about you?" Croya was obviously still worried about Zhu Yu.
"Don't worry, it is not our opponent!"
"Bang!" Ran Jie punched the guide who was running past him and knocked him to the ground. Before the guide could react, Ran Jie had already snatched the automatic rifle from his hand and pulled it from the bullet bag on his chest. Two magazines.
Ignoring the guide lying on the ground, Ran Jie quickly replaced the magazine. Ran Jie took a few steps forward and made a half-crouching posture, aiming at the giant python rushing towards him.
Zhu Yu glanced at the guide and found that he had no intention of grabbing the gun from Ran Jie. He just ran back as hard as he could and ignored him.
Seeing that Kroya and the others were also running back, Zhu Yu took out his pistol and Cao Dalong shot at the giant python to attract its attention.
As expected, the giant python's attention was attracted by Zhu Yu and Cao Dalong on the left and right. It didn't know whether to pounce on Ran Jie in the middle or get rid of the annoying little bugs on the left and right first.
Kroya and Haruta Tomoko ran a few dozen meters and then stopped, looking worriedly.
The guide whose gun was taken away returned to the two guides at the end of the group, mumbling something.
The leader of the guide looked at this side with a gloomy expression and had no intention of coming to help.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Ran Jie seized the opportunity and hit the giant python on the head with a short shot. The giant python's eyes were directly blinded, and it suddenly became manic!
It swung its tail desperately and twisted its body vigorously among the ruins of the wall.
Branches, vines, stones and bricks flew in the air.
Zhu Yu and Cao Dalong stepped aside early.
After all, the power of a pistol is limited. If you really want to kill this giant python, you have to rely on a rifle.
Ran Jie did not move his position. He pulled the trigger with his finger and kept firing in short bursts, pouring firepower into the vital position of the python's head.
After a magazine was fired, the giant python finally stopped twisting, and its huge body fell limply among the vines.
Haruta Tomoko asked in a worried voice:
"Is this big guy dead? Will he fake his death and attack?"
"I don't know." Croya's eyes never left Zhu Yu.
At this moment, Zhu Yu and Cao Dalong put away their pistols, drew out their daggers, and touched the giant python.
"You two, be careful!" Croya couldn't help but remind her loudly.
Zhu Yu waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.
Opening his eyes, he found that the python's head and heart had been hit, and it was too dead to die.
Ran Jie raised his gun and slowly approached the giant python, using it as suppressive fire.
After Zhu Yu and Cao Dalong used daggers and daggers to make several cuts on the giant python and confirmed that the giant python was completely dead, others gathered around.
"It must be at least a few hundred kilograms, right?" Cao Dalong kicked the python's body, "The meat should be delicious, right?"
"If you can tolerate the parasites in its body, then you can have a taste." Zhu Yu had already seen through his eyes that the body of the giant python was full of various parasites. He won't eat it.
"I was scared to death just now!" Croya came over curiously and touched the giant python.
The leading guide also came over. He took out his short knife and opened a hole in the python's belly, and the guide who had just been swallowed slipped out.
It looked like his body was still moving, but the exposed skin on his face and hands had been corroded by the python's gastric juices.
It was obvious that he could not be saved.
"You should have listened to Zhu Yu last night," Haruta Tomoko accused the guides at this time, "otherwise he might not have died today."
As he said this, he looked at Zhu Yu, hoping to get support.
After all, from the beginning until now, those guides have always held the leadership of the team's actions, and Tomoko Haruta naturally wants to seize the leadership.
She hopes to get Zhu Yu's support.
As long as Zhu Yu supports it, he will definitely be able to take over the initiative through this matter.
Zhu Yu and the others did not speak.
The death of teammates is not a good thing for them. This is when infighting is most foolish.
"Next let's not disperse, let's get together and act together." The leader of the guide said with a gloomy face.
Although people have died, the treasure hunt will continue.
The men then gathered together and continued their search cautiously.
Because of the fear of another python appearing, the search operation efficiency became very low.
We rested for a while and ate some convenience food.
At this time, there was no distinction between yours and mine when eating. Everyone gathered together. Qin Fei had made preparations early, and Zhu Yu and the others provided some hot water, which actually changed the expressions of the other three guides.
It was not until dark that less than half of the entire ruins area was searched.
But so far, there is no big harvest. The sporadic discoveries are nothing more than metal fragments, gem particles and the like.
When it was getting dark, Zhu Yu and the others did not need to remind them this time, and the camping place was changed to another slightly higher area about a hundred meters away from the ruins.
Ran Jie kept holding the rifle that was taken away from him, but he did not return it to the guide. The guide wanted to ask for it several times, but he didn't seem to have the courage.
He also looked for the leader of the guide, but was told to leave by the leader's native language.
Zhu Yu guessed that the leader of the guide said that the guide was too cowardly and embarrassing, and the gun in his hand would be worse than Ran Jie's.
At least Ran Jie and the others did not escape when faced with the giant python, but instead killed it.
When camping at night, men are still arranged to stay on duty.
This time more fires were lit around the tent.
Before dark, the guide and others found a lot of dead branches nearby, and they brought more wood fuel.
These are guaranteed to keep the fire burning for at least one night.
After all, fire can still act as a deterrent to wild beasts.
In the middle of the night, the roar of the beast could be heard from where the python was shot.
Apparently there were wild animals vying for the python's meat.
The roar lasted for half the night.
Croya appeared in Zhu Yu's tent again.
This time she was really scared.
"This is the first time I have seen such a big giant python in my life! If he had come close to us without us noticing, he would have swallowed us up!"
Croya recalled the horrific scene with lingering fear.
Zhu Yu hugged her and said softly:
"Don't worry, we are here. Let alone this giant python, we are not afraid of a few more."
Zhu Yu and the others are really not afraid. After all, we have seen more ferocious animals.
I don't know if it's because the blood of the giant python lured away the beasts, or because there is only one giant python nearby. The night passed peacefully.
Except for the night watchman who had many mosquito bites on his body, everyone else was intact.
After getting up and having breakfast the next day, the leader of the guide said:
"We need to speed up today and try to search the entire site. Then we need to go to another place. The speed must be accelerated!"
The others looked at Zhu Yu, who did not refute. Anyway, he had already seen the ruins, and there really wasn't anything good underneath.
There were some bones, but Zhu Yu had no interest in disturbing them that were already resting in peace.
Fearing that they would be attacked by wild beasts again, the treasure hunting team indeed sped up their movements a lot.
At the end of the day, before it was completely dark, the entire ruins had been searched.
All the gains were finally estimated to be worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Mainly, some small gems are of good quality, and some ancient gold coins should be worth a few dollars.
If placed in an ordinary treasure hunting team, this is already a good harvest.
But to Zhu Yu and the others, this is nothing.
Even Tomoko Haruta, who participated in the treasure hunt for the first time, looked disappointed.
Not to mention Kroya and Ran Jie who followed Zhu Yu and saw treasures worth tens of millions.
So at dinner time in the evening, everyone was in a bit of a low mood.
Few people spoke.
After dinner, the leader of the guide gathered everyone together and said:
"Tomorrow we will walk in two directions. There is a former village in the southeast, but now there is no one there. There used to be a temple built in a cave in the southwest, but according to those who later discovered it, the temple has Half submerged in water.
Which way are we going tomorrow? "
Others looked at Haruta Tomoko.
Spring Tomoko opened the simple map and looked around, but didn't see anything.
Zhu Yu stretched out his hand and said, "Bring it over and let me take a look."
Haruta Tomoko hesitated, but finally handed the map to Zhu Yu.
Zhu Yu just glanced at it and then handed the map to Ran Jie next to him.
"You...!" Tomoko Haruta was very angry.
He handed the map to Zhu Yu. On the one hand, he trusted him, but on the other hand, he felt that Zhu Yu was qualified to read the map. But he didn't think Ran Jie had this qualification.
It's just that Zhu Yu and Ran Jie didn't care about Haruta Yuzi's thoughts at all. They studied the map and finally asked Haruta Tomoko:
"Is this circled area the area where the focus is to be found?"
"Humph, yes." Haruta Tomoko was still very angry.
However, Zhu Yu ignored its childish behavior and said to the guide:
"Go to the village first and then go to the temple. Both places are suspicious areas."
When he said this, the guide did not refuse and nodded.
There were still no attacks that night, which made everyone feel relieved and they had a good sleep.
Everyone packed up their things and set off.
This time Tomoko Haruta didn't let Cao Dalong carry his things.
The leading guide did not increase the speed as much as before, and the group walked forward cautiously.
The jungle here is sparse and many animals live in it.
Zhu Yu and the others also saw a group of monkeys in the tree. The monkeys also looked at Zhu Yu and the others curiously. There was no malicious behavior on either side. They both remained quite vigilant, but they both restrained their actions.
In order to take care of Haruta Tomoko, and also worried that he would be unable to respond to an attack if he walked too fast, he took two breaks during this trip and arrived at the ruins of the village before the sun set.
What surprised Zhu Yu was the ruins of this village. Whether it was because it was relatively recent or for other reasons, most of the houses in the village had not collapsed.
Although it cannot be said that there are still people living there, at least the buildings are not completely submerged in the jungle.
The basic appearance of the roads in the village can also be seen.
"Check the village before dawn to see if there is any danger. If there is no danger, we will camp in the village tonight."
Zhu Yu felt good about the suggestion from the guide leader.
At least camping in this relatively intact village is much safer than camping in the wilderness.
"There won't be any Piao or anything in this village, right?" Haruta Tomoko asked with some fear.
"There are so many things." Croya retorted knowing what Haruta Tomoko was talking about, and then followed Zhu Yu into the village to investigate.
The village was very quiet. When Zhu Yu and the others walked in, a few wild rabbits jumped out of the broken house and ran away.
Zhu Yu opened his eyes, looked around, and soon made a discovery.
"There's something moving here!" Zhu Yu shouted, and the others immediately gathered around.
"It smells of blood, so there must be wild animals preying on it." Zhu Yu mentioned.
About the time they heard the footsteps and Zhu Yu's voice, a leopard suddenly jumped out of the small yard and ran into the bushes before anyone could react.
Ran Jie looked into the yard with his rifle and said with a smile:
"This leopard just hunted a black deer. Now it's good. We can have extra food tonight."
Zhu Yu also smiled.
Qin Fei dragged the deer out and found that its throat had been bitten by the cheetah and its blood had been drained before it could be eaten.
This deer weighs more than 30 kilograms, and the skin is a lot of meat.
"You guys continue, I'll take care of the deer." Qin Fei said, then took out his knife and started skinning it.
There are extra meals, which is good news for everyone who mainly eats convenience foods these two days.
So the next search in the village went much faster. Cao Dalong had already started discussing whether the roasted black venison was delicious or not.
The village is not big, the people inside have not been away for a long time, and the search time is relatively short.
So when everyone finished searching and arrived at the large yard where they had planned to camp, it was not completely dark yet.
Qin Fei had already peeled off the deer skin and set up a fire to roast the deer meat.
I also put water in the small pot and planned to make a pot of soup.
Zhu Yu had just seen it in the village. This village was abandoned. Those people had already taken valuable things with them when they left, so there would be nothing gained in this village.
Just look at the next location.
Zhu Yu hoped to find something at the next location, otherwise, morale would probably drop to freezing point.
But he couldn't say this, he could only reveal it himself after everyone's search was completed.
When the venison was almost ready, the aroma filled the air. Just when everyone was about to eat, the roar of wild beasts was heard in the distance.
"Oh no, it's a Bengal tiger!" The guide's expression immediately changed!
