Indiana Jones

Chapter 107 Treant Vine Monster (02)

Under a banyan tree, they found more than a dozen piles of ashes, some with light smoke rising slowly, some household garbage on the ground, and traces of human activities everywhere. From the discarded items, it can be seen that these people should be It was devils. There were traces of ropes strangling the tree, which should have been left by the large hammock above. After searching, they found nine piles of human feces nearby, which meant that there were at least nine people in this group of devils.

"Not everyone shits every day, and not everyone likes to shit in the morning. There are probably at least two dozen of these devils." Li Siming wiped his sweat and said.

"They don't have enough food, they mainly hunt." Si Xuanyi fiddled with the remaining bones beside the fire and said, "They were prey shot with guns, and from this point of view they have enough ammunition."

"They have wounded, and they are very serious, more than one." Liang Rong picked up a branch with some blood and pus stuck on it, "It should be on the upper body, this one can climb trees, if there are seriously wounded, it shouldn't hurt Go to the tree, but there is no sign of spending the night under the tree."

"They made kitchens on three of the fires. If the meals made by one stove can feed six to eight devils according to the devil's habit, then there are at least seventeen or eight of them." Ma Zhong said, "Grandma's, at least Fifteen, at most... more than twenty people."

"They have done a good job of defense. There is an early warning agency here that specializes in dealing with people." I found two shell casings hanging together in one place, and they would jingle when touched.

"This thing is good." Li Siming took a closer look at the two bullet casings.

"This is not a small number of well-equipped devils." Si Xuanyi sighed, "I hope we won't encounter them."

"Their direction is the same as ours." Rhodes pointed to the north and said, "They are also going that way."

"Bypass." Si Xuanyi said, "There are more and more devils here."

"What are they all here for? Running into the deep mountains and old forests, Grandma's, is it just to find us?" Ma Zhong was a little scared.

"We are not that important." Li Siming said to Rhodes, "It may be because of you."

"Why?" Rhodes was puzzled.

"You entered the woods because of the devils, and the devils increased their troops because of your entry." Li Siming said.

"Will it?" Rhodes felt that it made sense, but it seemed a little unconvincing.

"Why not? Is it for James's plane..." Si Xuanyi was stunned suddenly, Li Siming seemed to have thought of something, turned his head to look at Li Siming and reached for his bag at the same time.

"It is possible that what you are carrying is their No. [-] item." Liang Rong also thought of this level, "Among those ancient items, this jade seal may be the most valuable."

"This thing?" Li Siming took out the jade seal, "As for the trouble? Is it worth killing so many devils for this thing?"

"James mentioned that the devils attach great importance to these looted ancient relics, and they have the ability to change their fortunes." Si Xuanyi said, "Based on this, the possibility is very high."

"Maybe the No. [-] item they mentioned may be something else, not necessarily this jade seal." Ma Zhong said, "There are still many things we didn't bring out."

Li Siming shook his head: "No, if the jade seal is worthless, then other things are considered rubbish. The things used by the imperial court are invaluable. Foreigners like them very much. Devils often steal ancient things from China, so the No. [-] item should be this thing."

"It seems that we have a time bomb with us. If the devil is chasing us, it is too dangerous to carry this thing. It is better to throw it away." Ma Zhong said eagerly, "No, hang it on the tree. As long as the devil finds out We'll be looking around, and we'll be safe."

"How can you leave it to the devils? You are crazy." Liang Rong looked at Ma Zhong with an angry look, "Even if you lose it, you can't give it to the devils, and you can't let those beasts do what they want, hide them, and let them go in this forest. Find a place to bury it and it will be impossible to be found."

"No." Si Xuanyi shook his head, "Such a precious thing can't just be thrown away, it can't be left to devils, let alone thrown in the woods, we have to take it out, it's a Chinese thing, it should be put away In the exhibition hall for future generations to have the opportunity to see."

"I agree." Li Siming nodded, "You are right, you can't cheap the devil, let alone throw it away, you have to take it out."

Rhodes has no attitude towards this matter. He doesn't know anything about antiques. In his opinion, it is just a beautifully carved stone. As for the value, there is no way to judge it. Now Liang Rong, Li Siming and Si Xuanyi are not willing to throw it away Of course, Ma Zhong's suggestion can be ignored, so it's settled like this, no matter whether this jade seal is the No. [-] item that can change the fortune, they don't know, and they don't care. The things they own would rather be destroyed than let the devils go their way. Even if they are afraid of the devils, they have a national hatred and family hatred with them.

Now that the decision has been made, there is nothing to hesitate. Li Siming packed the jade seal again. This time he rewrapped it seriously and put it in the middle of the bag.The top and bottom are separated by clothes.

They took a detour before continuing to head north. Avoiding devils is their top priority now. Si Xuanyi specially told everyone not to shoot as much as possible. Devils are active here frequently. Who can guarantee that there are no devils nearby? This is a dense forest, and it is difficult to find people hiding more than ten meters away. If the devils are nearby, a gunshot is likely to attract them.

But before they had gone far, they made a new discovery. The corpse of a boa constrictor was lying on the ground. The body of the boa constrictor was full of bullet holes. It had been torn apart by wild beasts beyond recognition. Sucking blood, the air was filled with a disgusting smell, the neck of the snake was blown off, revealing a mutilated body of a ghost, it should be that the devil detonated the grenade when it was swallowed by the python, and died with it, extending all the way The ghost soldiers behind should have chased for a long distance to get here.

"It seems that their life is not very good, I hope they encounter more trouble than us." Ma Zhong said.

"It shouldn't take more than a day. Seeing how dense the bullet holes are, how many people need to shoot in volley to cause such dense wounds?" Li Siming poked the mutilated body of the boa constrictor with a gun and said.

"There are devils here too, damn it, it looks like we have to change direction again." Si Xuanyi sighed, the situation is getting worse and worse, is it possible that we really want to fight the devils here to the death?Is there still a chance to get out alive?
