The next day, everyone finally walked to the stream that Azuo mentioned.

This is a small stream in the mountains. The river beach is very shallow and the water is very clear. Standing by the shore, you can clearly see the round pebbles under the stream water in the riverbed. Seeing such a stream, the mercenaries who had been tortured by hunger for many days immediately cheered and rushed up one after another. Some of them simply didn't have time to use water bags to get water, but jumped into the stream and plunged their heads into the water and started drinking.

Within a moment, each mercenary was filled with cold water, and some people stretched their heads and kept burping, but their faces were full of comfort and comfort.

In contrast, the Zhaku people's performance was more calm. These natives just carefully filled the water bags one by one, drove their mounts to drink water, and then lay in front of the stream and took a few sips. However, Azuo did not move. He and Xia Ya stood side by side, looking at the direction of the bushes behind him with a serious expression.

"You feel it too?" Xia Ya was sneering, and when the rustic guy smiled, he was clearly full of murderous aura on his face.

"Well, it's here, I can feel it." Azuo hesitated for a moment.

After passing the stream, Xia Ya saw the "it" that Azuo said.

It seemed like a strange feeling in my heart. After walking through the stream, Xia Ya subconsciously looked back and soon saw that on the other side of the stream, the direction of the journey of his pedestrians, a huge and strong figure emerged from a bush on the other side. The green body was huge, twice as big as an ordinary poisonous lizard! From a distance, it looked like a calf! The thing slowly climbed onto a piece of smooth rock next to the bush. The green skin, in addition to the hard horny horny, was also covered with hideous and terrible sarcoma, with its long mouth open, revealing dense tines.

The thing was lying on the rock, from afar, as if looking at Xia Ya. One person and one lizard looked at each other from a distance across the stream for a while. Xia Ya clearly felt that there was a fierce light in the eyes of the thing!

Then, the thing turned his head and crawled into the bushes again.

"It is the leader of these lizards." Azuo's face was also ugly: "The last time I encountered them, it lowered my eyelids and tore my two subordinates into pieces!"

"It will not give up." Xia Ya said coldly, looking at Azuo beside him: "I feel that this thing...it will not give up, it will always follow us!"

Speaking of this, Shaya touched her chin: "Either kill us all, or... we kill it!"

After passing the stream, Azuo's expression seemed to be even more nervous.

The people of Zakutu seemed to be very alert. These guys, including Azuo, made some strange moves, such as mixing grass juice and soil into various colors of paint, and then applying them on their faces, making themselves look like ghosts.

The walking speed began to slow down. As the task of leading and opening the road was almost as cautious as Azuo himself, he rode his screaming lizard at the front of the team, holding a short spear, and watching nervously all the movements that might come from the bushes.

At the same time, Azuo also made some seemingly inhumane requests to Xia Ya and the mercenaries: Although after passing the stream, it seemed that they could catch prey, and occasionally one or two otters passing by could be seen from the bushes, Azuo severely stopped the mercenaries who had already picked up the bow and arrow.

At the same time, he also strictly prohibited the mercenaries from living or drinking.

Everyone was still drinking cold water and eating the dry food that was left with little left - this action made the mercenaries a little incomprehensible. Fortunately, Xia Ya trusted Azuo very much and strictly demanded that the mercenaries should do it according to the words of the Zaku natives.

In order to supplement food, the people of Zhaku still dug out some plants. Some of these plants that look suspicious in appearance taste like nightmare, but Xia Ya didn't say a word. No matter how unpalatable it was, he was the first to take the lead in eating it.

"Trust me, friend." Azuo's attitude towards Charia seemed to be much more intimate: "We are in a very dangerous area now. This woods are a terrible thing. This thing is more dangerous than those lizards. I don't want to attract its attention! We'd better pass through the border quietly and not be discovered by it. Therefore, anything that may cause traces must be avoided! Creating fire, or drinking alcohol, will cause its idea! The smell of that thing is very sharp, and the smell of the wine will make it notice."

Xia Ya understood that Azuo was talking about the "giant tooth lurker".

"We should be able to walk through this season. This season, that guy is sleeping most of the time. As long as we are careful and don't disturb it, there will be nothing wrong." As Zuo looked very confident when he said this.

But...When I was resting that night, something immediately shattered Azuo's confidence!

During the evening break, the mercenaries gathered together to sleep on the back of the tree. At this moment, in the quiet night, a loud roar and roaring sound from afar immediately alarmed everyone!

In the dark night, the roar was like the cry of a frog, but this sound seemed to be amplified by more than a hundred times - you can imagine that the cry of a frog would be so huge, and what kind of movement would it be.

The sound was buzzing and oscillating, and came from an unknown direction in the woods far behind. It sounded like a bit crazy in the night.

As soon as he heard this scream, Azuo, who was sitting on the ground, closed his eyes and rested, suddenly jumped up. He widened his eyes, and the expression on his face seemed to have been suddenly cut by someone. His expression was terrible, with anger and horror!

"It! It's it!"

Azuo's expression was a little crazy: "It's crazy! It knows clearly, but it's crazy! It's going to bother us no matter what it is! This guy! It refuses to give up! It dares to do this!"

Shaya frowned: "What do you mean?"

"That thing." Azuo suddenly smiled miserably and pointed at the distance in the woods: "The leader of that lizard! It knows! It is wise! It knows! It knows who this territory belongs to! But it dares to call it like that! It is intentional! It deliberately wants to alarm the giant teeth!! This crazy guy!"

Azuo's face was so dark that he raised his face and looked at Xia Ya, and suddenly muttered in a low voice: "The snake girl said that she must take you to the tribe... she must take you..."

The Zakutu leader suddenly became a little dizzy. After muttering a few words, he sat down. However, that night, he did not close his eyes anymore, but stared at the woods in the distance, staring blankly until dawn.

The next day, the direction of walking suddenly changed.

Azuo, who was leading the way in front, suddenly changed his previous plan. The original plan was to walk upstream of the stream not far from the stream, circle the edge of this "Giant Tooth Lurker" territory, and get rid of the lizards' pursuit.

But Azuo suddenly changed his mind, and he led everyone into the deep forest!

Xia Ya did not say a word about Azuo's actions. He remained silent, and the other mercenaries did not know the plan, so naturally no one said anything.

In the evening that day, everyone had already penetrated the forest far away. The trees in the woods became denser and denser, with huge crowns towering. On the ground, the twisted trunks were like dense walls, and the dense vines were covered with sharp thorns.

The journey is getting more and more difficult, and this is not what makes Xia Ya the most uneasy... What makes the rustic guy the most uneasy is that he sees a few inconspicuous traces!

He once saw a deep trace of fragmentation on a huge tree that could be picked up by about three strong men.

This kind of trace is definitely not natural! It looks like someone cut off a third of the trunk with a huge and sharp axe or machete! The deep trace fell on the trunk. Although the trees grew by themselves, the bark and various juices secreted, most of the wounds were healed again, and there were also knots like tumors covered on it, but with Xia Ya's keen observation, he still saw the "wound"!

Also, that night, everyone saw a skeleton left by some kind of wild beast on the road.

It was a skeleton, and the flesh had completely rotted, leaving only one skeleton. Xia Ya leaned closer and looked for a while before barely recognizing it: This thing, perhaps, might be a bloodthirsty wild wolf - the size of this skeleton was huge that Xia Ya had never seen before, and was twice as big as the one he had killed.

But it was obvious that the remaining skeleton of such a big guy could see its fatal injury: the part of its spine was neatly cut off! The traces of the break were obviously terrifying, as if there was a huge sharp weapon that directly cut it into two pieces in half, and the spine and several ribs were broken together!

Not only Xia Ya could see such injuries, but the mercenaries naturally would not be unable to understand them. Everyone's face became solemn. The mercenaries looked nervously at the dense forest around them, as if they were looking for something.

At night, everyone stayed there to rest. The huge skeleton was completely removed by the natives. The broken ribs were removed one by one by one by one by the natives, and then ground them on the stones and ground them into seven or eight bone spears. These bone spears were tied up by Azuo and carried them behind their backs. Other natives were also nervously preparing for something. They cut down branches from the surrounding big trees, polished one end and tugged them on their backs with vines.

In the middle of the night, the sound of a giant frog roared in the distance. The leader of the lizard seemed to be closer to the place where the roaring sound came.

This time, Azuo suddenly stood up, jumped onto a stone, opened his mouth and let his throat open, and roared fiercely!

Azuo's screams were like the howling of the wolf at night, and the shrill and angry roar spread far along the wind. His roar immediately led the other natives, and the Zaku natives jumped up one after another, opened their mouths and howled in the distance.

In the night, the shouts of these natives were like a group of wolves howling at night...

The sound of howlings came one after another, revealing the meaning very clear!

If the roar of the lizard is provocative, then the Zaku people expressed their meaning with unhesitant whistling sounds:

We'll face it!!

The roars between the two sides lasted for a short while at night. At night, the sounds of the lizards gradually increased, as if under the leadership of the leading big guy, the lizards became anxious.

The next day, the conflict between the two sides quickly broke out.

As the team moved forward, when they passed a piece of vines, two green shadows suddenly emerged from the bushes beside them, dragging down a Zakutu man riding on the wolf's back on the edge of the team directly! The Zakutu man screamed so loudly, but after landing, he grabbed the short spear and stabbed it hard into the head of a lizard that bit his thigh! He used all his strength to stab the short spear on the lizard's head, and it broke into two pieces. Half a short spear penetrated deeply into the lizard's head. The thing quickly rolled and twitched and rolled into the bushes.

Two lizards jumped off the trunk and rushed into the team. Before a Zhaku native could react, he was bitten off his neck by a mouth open from behind, and his head was bitten off! The blood spurted out from the cavity on his shoulder was like a tide!

The local people's reaction was obviously faster than the mercenaries. They quickly launched a counterattack with their short spears. The two lizards that rushed into the team were nailed directly to the ground by seven or eight short spears! The one in the bush was hugged by a native man and his tail was fiercely held. Even if the lizard turned his head and bit the native man's arm, the native man refused to let go. As a result, the mercenaries surrounded him cut the lizard into pieces with a series of axes!

This melee took only a moment. After the silence came, the bodies of four lizards were left on the ground. In the team, three natives and one mercenary also died.

The one-to-one death and injury made Xia Ya and Azuo look ugly.

The poison of these lizards is too great. The injured people who died in the team are actually not fatal, but they died under the poison of the lizard, and the body quickly turned black.

The mercenaries cut the bodies of the lizards into pieces like venting anger. The locals performed very calmly.

They gave their dead companions a quiet and weird "funeral service".

The dead natives were stripped of all their animal skins and clothes by their companions. Then the natives dug a big pit on the ground, put the dead companions into the pit, and curled up the shape of the corpse.

It looked like a naked body curled up in the pit, sleeping like a newborn baby.

"We Zaku people believe that what we look like in this world, and what we should look like when we leave." Azuo's tone was very low.

The mercenaries refused the Zaku Tutu "funeral" style. They buried the dead mercenaries according to their own rules: they were dressed neatly, and all the axes, armors and shields used by the deceased during their lifetime were buried in the soil.

The Zakutu people gathered the mounts left by the dead and the wolves, then untied the ropes and belts on the giant wolf, gently stroked them on the wolf's back for a while, Azuo even held the wolf's head and muttered something on the ground beside each wolf's ear. He was talking about Zaku's words, and the strange notes were like chanting a spell. Soon, the giant wolf roared and left the team and disappeared into the woods.

"They are free. Just like the soul of their master, they are free."

Azuo looked at the shadow of the giant wolf that was leaving in the woods and murmured to himself.

"Stop!"

Azuo in front suddenly stopped and raised his hand high. The Zakutu people behind him stopped in place. The mercenaries immediately gathered together to form a circular array.

Xia Ya ran to Azuo's side.

"We're here." A Zuo pointed ahead with a strange expression on his face.

Shaya swallowed: "It's a weird scene."

It's really weird.

In the dense jungle, a "flat" open space appeared in front of me.

There were no trees growing on this open space about ten meters wide, just a low grass, with colorful and gorgeous flowers growing in the grass.

The flowers are bright in color, and there are small fruits hanging on the stems, which look like a beard, and the fruits are like small tumors. Although they are so bright in color, they look like indescribable weirdness and ugliness.

And beyond the front of this flower bushes, is a strange and huge plant.

Those huge plants, one by one, are like huge sunflowers that have been magnified several times. The thick flower stems are as strong and thick as the trunks. The huge flower plates on them are full of golden colors. The flower stems are covered with various strange vines. Those vines are as thick as children's arms, long and curved on the flower stems, and some are horizontally on the ground.

And the most bizarre one is the ground of those huge sunflowers!

The ground was covered with bones of all sizes!

That’s right! All are bones! The bones left by various unknown creatures!!

Layer after layer, densely spread on the ground.

Xia Ya has never seen so many bones in her life!

Azuo and the natives quickly gathered over, and then Azuo asked a native to take a wild beast he was carrying over. Since yelling with the lizards, Azuo no longer forbids his subordinates to hunt. In the past two days, everyone has meat to eat again.

This is a hunted cabbage. Azuo grabbed the tail of the cabbage and suddenly raised his hand from afar and threw it towards the giant flower forest!

Next, a scene that is probably happening.

The cabbage landed on the flower forest and quickly rolled up. A vine on the ground immediately rolled up like a snake, quickly rolling around the legs of the bobcat! The little beast struggled twice, but three or four vinees quickly stretched out next to it, quickly pinning it layer by layer!

Only then did everyone see clearly that the surface of the vines was not smooth, but like the hairs of the human body, a dense and small short thorns grew. All the short thorns pierced into the body of the calf. Then, during the process of the vines contracting, the short thorns were clearly seen in the body of the calf, and soon a stream of sticky liquid flowed out!
