Chapter 224 [Target: Snake Slayer]


Su Ling was stunned for a moment, and looked at Ah Cai on the ground: "Is this Ah Cai?"

Ah Cai closed his mouth and looked at Su Ling's sparkling eyes, and the Zaku boy closed his eyes at the same time.

"Although I am not you Zaku, nor am I a child of the mountains," Char's tone was mocking: "But I'm not the kind of outsider who doesn't know anything about the mountains, do you understand, I have lived in the mountains since I was a child, so do you really think I'm so easy to deceive?"

Char gently raised his hand to block Su Ling, then grabbed the leather coat on Ah Cai's body, lifted him up, approached the other party's nose, and stared at Ah Cai's eyes up close: "I've been suspicious for the past two days, but I'm not from your Zaku after all, so I haven't seen through your trick yet, but fortunately, I finally understood it today." ” He paused: "First, you have been taking us around the road If it is someone else, maybe you have really been deceived by you Since we crossed the small river the next day and entered the wild forest area you said, in fact, in the rest of the time, you have taken us on a folding-shaped route, although we have walked for four days, but in fact, we have walked in a straight line for only a few dozen miles at most, right?"

"I'm just taking us to look for something, since it's a search, of course we can't go in a straight line, we have to expand the area of search as much as possible."

Ah Cai came up with a justification.

"Yes, that's what I thought at first."

The sneer on Char's face froze: "I also thought that the detour back and forth was to find the magic kiss taro."

But I accidentally found out about your little trick."

As he spoke, Char wiped two handfuls on his neck, and then snorted: "Since entering the wild forest, the insect repellent potion you gave us is obviously useless, at first I thought it was strange, why are the insects here getting more and more powerful, even if I smeared the mosquito repellent potion you gave, it is useless but now I understand, the herbs you gave me are not insect repellent herbs at all, because unfortunately, your uncle, Ah Zuo, I once walked with him all the way, and he told me that there are at least three kinds of flowers and plants, as long as the juice is squeezed out, It's effective in getting rid of those pesky mosquitoes, but you're not using any of the three."

Char said this, and glanced at Ah Cai: "Don't tell me that your potion is better to use, remember what I asked you the night before yesterday, you said that other herbs are only in the south forest, here is the north forest, there are no other herbs, but unfortunately, when I was chasing pheasants in the grass this morning, I found those insects-repellent flowers and plants, these things are not difficult to find, there are many children of you, the son and daughter of the mountain, you will not make such a low-level mistake."

"Okay" Ah Cai stiffened his neck: "Even if I made a mistake in the insect repellent herbs, so what, you can only say that my ability in this area is too mediocre, what evidence do you have to say that I did it?"

"Two reasons."

Char took a breath: "I deliberately drilled around the bushes today, guess what I was looking for to tell you, I was looking for snakes, yes, and I also found do you know what I found I found the snakes I found, those snakes are not afraid of me I walked by it casually, but the snake didn't seem to react I thought, it must be the smell of the insect repellent potion you gave me that played a wonderful role What you have wiped us in the past two days, It's not for insect repellent at all, but so that we don't get attacked by snakes, right, I think about it for a while, ah, little one, I happen to know that there is a kind of flower and grass that snakes like the most."

Ah Cai closed his mouth.

Char glanced at him and continued: "The second reason, I found out, you are making marks along the way, you are very clever, you are not stupid to draw any patterns on the bark, or drop anything as a marker, but hum, there is something wrong with your knife" He picked up Ah Cai's knife, put the blade to his nose and sniffed it, his eyes lit up: "Hehe, what is the pulp mixed with honey, right, it's very clever to cut the bushes and thorns in front of us to open the way, and your blade in the process of chopping, you will stick these pulp and honey on the thorns along the road, there are a lot of wild bees in this woods, those things will be attracted by these honey pulp and swarm, and finally it will become a natural signpost."

Ah Cai finally sighed, he raised his eyelids and stared at Char, his tone was very bitter: "I admit it, you seem to know really about things in the mountains, and you are different from those other outsiders.

You're right, fruit syrup and honey, but with the addition of a snake's saliva, a smell that we can't smell with our noses, only insects. ” "Oh, you admit it."

Char smiled: "So, tell me, who are you guiding the way, and who you left along the way, and who is tracking us" Listening to the conversation between the two, Su Ling next to her was stunned, she looked at the two people with wide eyes, and suddenly screamed: "Ah Cai, why did you really do this, why did you do these things?"

Ah Cai sighed, the young man turned his head to look at Su Ling, and hesitated: "Su Ling, I don't have any malicious intentions, these are all orders from the big chief."

The night before our departure, the Great Chief summoned me alone, and I swore in my uncle's name to do these things for the Great Chief.

So you really shouldn't sneak here."

Su Ling opened his mouth and was stunned for a moment, but Ah Cai had already turned around and looked at Char: "Sir, please let me go, I didn't mean to do this, I" Xia Ya let go of Ah Cai, put him on the ground, patted his clothes with his hands, and smiled faintly: "You don't have to be afraid, I won't hurt you, because Ah Zuo is your uncle, Ah Zuo once sacrificed his own life to save me, I owe him so, as long as you tell me the truth, I won't blame you." ” The Zaku boy's eyes were very complicated, he swallowed his saliva, looked at Su Ling, hesitated, and finally sighed: "Okay sir, you are actually here for the Holy Snake, right, the Great Chief told me that you are here to help us with the Zaku people, you are friends, you are here to help us deal with the Holy Snake together, right?"

"I did make that promise to your uncle."

Char nodded solemnly, his eyes were firm: "For your uncle, I will work hard." ” Ah Cai was relieved, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "The Great Chief told me so, but he didn't say anything to you in person, because of some special reasons about the Holy Snake, the Great Chief told me that there is no unity of opinion in our tribe.

Therefore, the chief did not make any decisions in person, and for some reason, he could not announce it in public in the tribe."

Char nodded: "Some reasons" "You don't understand, our tribe, although the big chief is the leader of the tribe, but many things, he must listen to the opinions of the high priest, the big priest has the power of us and the sacrifice divination, etc., more importantly, the big priest also has the power to communicate with the holy snake, and on the issue of the holy snake, the attitude of the big chief and the sacrifice has always been completely opposite" Char glanced at Tadora, and the two looked at each other for a moment before Char continued: "You mean, the high priest in your clan is against any action against that holy snake."

"The High Priest thinks we should continue to maintain a subservient attitude towards the Holy Serpent."

To Char's surprise, it was Su Ling who answered this question, this chick was full of anger, and said loudly: "I hate that guy, he is sneaky all the time, he is simply selfish, because only with the existence of the holy snake, he can have his current status, the priest is responsible for communicating with the holy snake, listening to every order of the holy snake, and detoxifying the will given by the holy snake, that guy will only watch our brothers and sisters being devoured by that big monster" There is a reason for Su Ling's anger, because of the upcoming selection of the snake girl, she herself is one of the victims.

"If you make any decisions openly in the clan, or blatantly" Ah Cai said in a low voice: "The big chief is worried that it will cause opposition from the sacrifice, and that guy may do something behind his back, so we can only make some disguises like hunting, we can't alarm the prey, we can only go around in a roundabout way, and then approach quietly."

"Understood, so we asked to enter the forest to look for the magic kiss taro, and the big chief happily agreed, in fact, he took the opportunity to let you take us into the forest, and then" Char's eyes suddenly widened: "You don't want to take us directly to the holy snake, please let us slaughter that monster?"

"Depending on the season, now is the time for it to hibernate and the best chance."

Ah Cai gritted his teeth: "Moreover, isn't this exactly what you came here for, did you promise that we won't just let you go alone, the Great Chief has secretly transferred a group of the most elite warriors in the tribe, and they will leave the tribe in the name of hunting, and then join us in the depths of the forest."

I'm leaving these marks along the way, so that the warriors can follow our route, and we will eventually converge and form a team to slay the snake and kill the monster and save our tribe."

Char sighed, and looked at Ah Cai's eyes and became much more polite: "Then why didn't you tell me this earlier when you took me around for two days?"

"It's not because of Su Ling."

Ah Cai smiled helplessly: "This is a dangerous thing, Su Ling suddenly caught up with us, disrupting this plan, I tried to persuade her to go back, but she refused."

But it's too dangerous to take her with me, so I've been hesitant for the past two days."
