Chapter 251 Jungle Beast
Pushing aside a layer of attachments mixed with yellow-green grass stems and dark green moss, Zhu Jue saw the arrows that were no longer visible on the surface of the stone.

"When I fled there, I would leave a mark every other way, in order to be able to go back one day."

The thumb fumbled for the crooked arrow, Flo pursed his lips, and looked in the direction of the arrow,

"I didn't expect that this day would make me wait for three years."

Zhu Jue led the horse, looked up at the reddish sky in the jungle, pulled the rein to bring the horse behind him closer to him, and asked aloud: "I'm curious about one thing. On the way, you told me that you were one of a hundred people, and in that case, you must be highly valued by the cult, why did those who were abandoned stay in the villages and towns, but you were able to leave?"

Before entering the valley, Flo seemed to have some problems with his mental state, so Zhu Jue suppressed his curiosity. Now that he has recovered, he brought it up again. "

"Does Mr. Bruce know about One Thousand and One Nights?"

Covering the mark again with moss, Flo turned to look at Zhu Jue and asked.

"A fairy tale?"

Zhu Jue got tired of reading this kind of storybook when he was in elementary school. In his childhood, it was considered an entertainment item comparable to today's digital products.

"It seems that Mr. Bruce seems to have seen it. It is said that this collection of stories tells that there was a small country in ancient times. King Shanruyar was cruel and jealous by nature. He killed the queen because of her misbehavior. After that, he married a girl every day. The next morning That is to kill to show revenge. In order to save the innocent woman, Shan Ruzod, the daughter of the prime minister, voluntarily married the king, and used the method of telling stories to attract the king. Kill her and allow her to continue telling the story the next night. And her story has been told for one thousand and one nights, and the king was finally moved and married her forever."

Flo believes that his own experience is similar to this story.

"You mean that you approached the leader of the cult with the help of the knowledge in the dream, and then had some special relationship with her or him?"

The focus of Zhu Jue's attention is obviously somewhat biased.

"...Your understanding is too straightforward."

Feeling helpless about someone's ability to understand, Flo sighed, turned around and took out two full-face Bluetooth headsets from the left and right sides of the backpack, handed one of them to Zhu Jue, and continued,

"In that village, every once in a while, the tower in the center of the town will play some sounds, which will cause spiritual hypnosis for everyone, and people will fall into their own wonderful delusions. At first, because of an accidental dream , I fell into a dream when the radio was sounding, and it’s a little funny that this dream that has harmed me until now actually saved me at that time.”

Speaking of this, Flo casually picked a blade of grass next to him. He didn't know whether it was because of the peculiar smell of the plant's branches or leaves or some emotion in his heart that made his face full of bitterness.

He hated those dreams, but they were the only ones in town who were awake.

What happened next can be easily guessed.

Flo, who witnessed how other people in the town went crazy, realized what kind of absurd environment he was in. He chose what all normal people would choose to find a way to escape from that town.

"You have companions."

Zhu Jue said this very firmly, he was sure of it.

"Of course, companions are essential. It is impossible for me to escape there alone. There are two other people besides me. I tried to block their ears and lock them into the basement in the town. Finally let them wake up like me, the parchment in your hand is the fruit of one of them in exchange for his life."

When talking about this matter, Flo's face had no obvious emotions, and he calmly seemed to be talking about the marks on the stone.

Some pain cannot be expressed in words, and every time it is revealed is a secondary wound that is difficult to heal.
Zhu Jue stopped this topic. He was not one of those unscrupulous reporters who had no interest in digging up other people's painful past. The two rode their horses and continued to advance into the depths of the valley.

Night fell extremely fast.

When Zhu Jue was thinking about whether it would take physical energy for a horse to walk with mechanical legs, the sky was already dark.

"How long?"

According to Zhu Jue's thinking, this kind of sneaking activity always had to be done late at night, and he thought that Flo chose this time to enter the valley in order to be able to pinpoint this time point to ensure that their sneaking in was as concealed as possible.

"When I ran out from the inside, I spent about a day on the road. Excluding the time for hiding and resting, it took about 10 hours to walk. We rode horses and never stopped since we entered the valley. I think there are two more You can see the last imprint I left in about an hour, it is now 6 o'clock sharp, and when we arrive at the village, it should be 11 o'clock in the middle of the night."

Flo did not know how many times he had calculated this distance in his heart. When Zhu Jue asked, he said it almost without thinking, and then said,
"We need to find a hidden place to hide the horse, and we will use it when we escape later."

Speed ​​up, in order to obtain more generous action time.

The night is getting darker and thicker. Fortunately, in this valley area, on a clear night, the moonlight and starlight are enough for people to see things within ten meters.

Flo bent down and searched and searched among the pile of broken stones in the forest. Because he didn't dare to turn on the lighting equipment, it took him a long time to find the few stones that he placed in a certain order. So he looked back at Zhu Jue and said, "This is the last mark. Walk eastward for about an hour and a half from here, and we will find the town where we can tie our horses."

"What's in your backpack? It's bigger than my weapon case, and can you carry it in an hour and a half?"

Zhu Jue just tied up the horse, looked at the backpack that Flo put casually on the edge of the stone, and saw its bulging appearance, and raised his hand. At least it weighed 25KG. Looking at Ffulo’s body, he had some doubts about carrying such a heavy backpack. After walking for an hour and a half, can he still move freely?

"It contains things that can help the people in the town to wake up. Part of it is the Bluetooth headset I gave you just now. Some songs that can soothe the mind are downloaded in advance, and part of it is weapons. I plan to destroy the center of the town. The broadcasting tower, this weight is no problem for me, some time ago I specially exercised strength."

Flo came over from the side and opened the zipper of the backpack, revealing a full-face wireless Bluetooth headset exactly the same model as Zhu Jue's.

"That's a good idea, I'll help you."

At this time, Zhu Jue looked at Flo with more appreciation. He always admired those who grew up in adversity and still insisted on certain valuable qualities.

There are really not many people like this in today's era. Among the people Zhu Jue knows, Qin Chengren who said "someone has to tell others that shit is not good!" is one of them, and so is the young man in front of him.

The times are often unwilling to help such people, but Zhu Jue is willing to help if he can.

roar~ roar~
The low roar of some kind of beast suddenly sounded in the jungle, interrupting their respective thinking.

"Low your head and shrink behind those stones. This kind of cry is not like an ordinary beast."

Zhu Jue put the weapon case aside, raised his hand and pressed against Flo, signaling him to find a place to hide first, pressed the button on the side of the weapon case, and held the crescent moon in his hand.

The owner of the roar didn't make Zhu Jue wait too long, and soon there was a messy sound from the bushes in front left.

roar~
A ferocious beast jumped out of it, standing on the stone and shaking its head around, as if looking for something, Zhu Jue's eyes tightened.

"What the hell is this?"

Looking at the giant wolf in front of him who was about the same height as Flo when he landed on all fours, the sharp metal claws proved that this was definitely not a wild animal.

"This is a genetically modified biochemical beast. The cult forces in this valley can use this beast to patrol. The power is absolutely extraordinary. Zhu Jue, you can't kill it. This guy must have a camera or a life sensor device on his body , as long as it dies, the people behind it will immediately know that something happened here, and if it finds out, your whereabouts will be exposed immediately."

Li Qinglian's irritable voice came from the earphones, Zhu Jue grabbed the weapon case, turned over and landed directly beside Flo, and the scavenger rushed out of his body in an instant, completely enveloping the two of them.

"There has never been such a monster before."

Flo, who caught a glimpse of the giant wolf just now, gasped in the darkness.

"It should be a new method added after you escaped. Don't make a sound, the scavenger will cover our breath."

Zhu Jue fully trusted the scavenger's ability to disguise. The government army hadn't seen its disguise before, let alone such a low-intelligence beast.

Herod~
When the two were hiding, there was a sudden neighing of horses when they were frightened, followed by the sound of tearing flesh and blood mixed with the roar of wild animals.

"Our horse died."

Flo couldn't help but whispered.

"If you die, you can die, anyway, you won't need it later."

Responded with a somewhat strange tone.

From Zhu Jue's point of view, since he came here, he would definitely settle the matter before leaving. Even if he lost his horse, he would just need to walk a few more steps.

"Yeah, maybe it won't be needed."

For some reason, Flo also silently followed.

After about 10 minutes, the outside gradually became quiet. The scavenger told Zhu Jue that the giant wolf was far away, and the two came out from their hiding places.

"It's a good thing that guy didn't crush my wine, otherwise I would have to chop it off and kick it as a ball after I finished my work."

Picking up two bottles of wine scattered on the ground, Zhu Jue threw a bottle to Flo,

"Two quarrels, get ready to hit the road!"
