Zhang Xiaozu raised his head slightly, holding a reed pipe in his mouth. The other end of the reed pipe stuck out of the water an inch high and was hidden under a large water plant leaf. The exhaled breath and the fresh air on the water surface alternated through the reed pipe as a channel.
cycle.
His entire body was hidden in the water under the water plants. His hunting knife was deeply embedded in the sand at the bottom of the river. His legs were wrapped around the handle of the hunting knife to hold his body motionless.
Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but feel smug and praised his clever mind. He felt that anyone who saw the traces he left in the reeds would follow them downstream. Who would have thought that he would dive and swim upstream?
So he concluded that the girl in the red dress would not be able to find him this time.
Moreover, not only did he leave no trace of his escape this time, but his scent was also masked by the water, so even if they brought the best hunting dogs, it would be useless.
Unless someone among them has clairvoyance and can see him hiding in the water through the thick aquatic plants on the water in the dark night, this is obviously impossible.
About a quarter of an hour later, a large "firefly" landed on a piece of water grass above Zhang Xiaozu's head. Zhang Xiaozu, who was curled up in the water, was completely unaware. But Zhang Xiaozu's heart skipped a beat.
He got up because he heard footsteps on the shore. The footsteps came from far and near, and suddenly stopped for some reason. He heard clearly that there were two footsteps that stopped on the shore where he was hiding.
"There must be no trace of me, I don't know which direction to pursue." Zhang Xiaozhu told himself in his mind, forcing himself to calm down.
However, what made him confused and nervous was that his footsteps stopped on the shore and there was not a word of conversation from the beginning to the end. He wanted to take a peek at what was going on on the shore, but he didn't dare, for fear of exposing his whereabouts.
There was no movement on the shore, and Zhang Xiaozu did not dare to make any movement. After a stalemate for a full quarter of an hour, there was finally movement on the shore. There were new footsteps coming from far and near. Based on the footsteps, Zhang Xiaozu deduced that there should be three people.
Personally, what made him worried was that the footsteps were the same as before, stopping at the shore where he was hiding.
"Master, people are hiding in the water."
"Oh. How long have you been hiding it?"
"He was already hiding under the water when the minions came after him, and now another quarter of an hour has passed."
"Not moving at all?"
"without."
"Gee, that's awesome!"
Listening to the conversation on the shore, Zhang Xiaozhu's heart immediately went cold. Apparently he was discovered when the footsteps stopped for the first time. What's funny is that he was still full of confidence, believing that others had not discovered him, as if he was deceived.
Standing in front of others with your eyes closed, covering your ears and stealing the bell, you look like an idiot. Not like that, just like that.
It was none other than a girl in a red dress and a group of seven people on the shore.
The first footsteps that Zhang Xiaozu heard were the four slaves chasing after Lianzi Yingworm. They followed Lianzi Yingworm all the way and accurately found Zhang Xiaozu's hiding place. Their master said that he would tame Zhang Xiaozu with his own hands, so they
They did not "disturb" Zhang Xiaopou, but stood on the shore waiting for their master to come over.
The second set of footsteps were the girl in the red dress, the old man in the crown, and the red-faced old man who caught up after washing up. The three of them couldn't bear it when they learned that Zhang Xiaozu had hidden under the eyes of the four slaves for a quarter of an hour.
Laughed loudly.
"Giggle, Zhang Damao, come out, don't hide, I have never seen anyone as stupid as you in my whole life." The girl in the red dress sneered at where Zhang Xiaopou was hiding.
Zhang Xiaozu's cheeks burned with shame, but he would not be obedient unless he was really stupid. He pulled out his hunting knife, twisted his body, splashed on the bottom of the water, and plunged into the deep water in the middle of the river.
If you want to repeat the old trick, you can escape from water.
"Hmph! If you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink it as a penalty!" The girl in the red dress snorted coldly, bowed to the old man in the crown and the red-faced old man and said, "I'd like to ask him to come ashore, please."
"I'll come." The red-faced old man responded.
After that, he jumped up, like a roc spreading its wings, and flew towards the river. He let out a low voice and stepped on the water. He saw that the flowing water surface was completely concave with the soles of his feet as the center, and it felt like a heavy weight.
The object pressed against the open membrane, and the membrane collapsed under the weight.
The red-faced old man just stood on the water in an independent posture like a golden rooster with a smile on his face and said nothing.
Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu
I saw a large number of bubbles suddenly appearing on the sunken water surface.
Zhang Xiaozu was so out of his mind that he felt a mountain suddenly pressing on his back, pinning him to the bottom of the river. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free. The weight of the mountain squeezed out the air from his chest, and the river water
He poured it into his mouth gurglingly.
His belly swelled rapidly, his chest was suffocating as if it was going to explode, his eyes were protruding, and his ear canals were swollen and painful. His limbs were scratching the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river. He was gradually losing strength. His eyes were turning black. Zhang Xiaozu knew that he was
He will soon be drowned.
Zhang Xiaozhu was so sad, because he still couldn't figure out how the girl in the red dress and the others caught up with him. Did they have some magical skills to chase people? Just like the magical skills that locked him at the bottom of the river, unable to move.
It's like magic.
However, the red-faced old man seemed to have calculated with his fingers. Just when Zhang Xiaopou was about to drown, he pulled back his feet, and the sunken water surface returned to normal instantly.
Zhang Xiaozu felt that the pressure on his back suddenly disappeared, and he hurriedly pushed towards the water surface with his hands and feet. Gurgling, water was still pouring into his mouth, but his body was already rushing towards the water like an arrow from a string.
Wow!
Zhang Xiaozu jumped out of the water like a fish leaping over a dragon's gate, opening his mouth wide, wishing that all the air in the world could be poured into his mouth. But before the air could be poured into his mouth, he heard a bang, and his belly was swollen by the river water.
He was hit so hard that all the water in his stomach was knocked out. He opened his mouth and sprayed water and fell to the shore.
boom!
Zhang Xiaozu fell to the grass on the shore like a dead fish. He rolled for more than ten steps before he stopped. He curled up like a prawn. He really wanted to take a breath, but the water in his stomach kept filling up.
It spurted out so hard that he couldn't breathe.
"Woo"
After a long while, Zhang Xiaozu finally took a breath. He opened his mouth and made a sound like an old bellows in his throat. He was breathing heavily, for fear that he would suffocate to death if he didn't take a breath.
Zhang Xiaozhu knelt on the ground with his hands on the grass, gasping for breath, his face covered with snot and tears. Some of them were choked and held back, and some of them were made by him crying. He was crying bitterly to save a dog's life.
"Zhang Damao, tell your secret and become my slave, or die!"
The indifferent voice of the girl in the red dress sounded so cold and heartless to Zhang Xiaozu's ears.
"Ahem"
Zhang Xiaozu coughed violently and coughed up a lot of blood. He didn't know whether his throat or lungs were injured. After coughing, he took a deep breath and stood up. He looked at the girl in the red dress with red eyes and asked word by word through gritted teeth: "
I have no secrets and I don’t want to be your slave!”
While he was speaking, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a large "firefly". The "firefly" buzzed around him and seemed to want to land on his back.
Staring at the "firefly", Zhang Xiaozhu's eyes trembled suddenly. He remembered that he had seen this big "firefly" by the river before. At that time, he thought there was someone behind him, so he turned around suddenly, and this big "firefly"
The "Firefly" is lying on a blade of grass behind him.
"Could it be that this big 'firefly' was not on the blades of grass at that time, but lying on my back, and it was because I suddenly turned around that it flew to the blades of grass? This big 'firefly' just now
Where is it? Is it also on my back? Could it be?"
Zhang Xiaozu stared at the flying fireflies. A flash of light flashed in his mind, and he seemed to have caught the problem. He suddenly put his hands behind his back and scratched, but he couldn't catch anything.
Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but be confused. He twisted his head and looked at his back, wondering if there was something on his back. Suddenly his eyes were fixed on the bandage, and he was suddenly shocked. This bandage was not his, but
The girl in the red dress and her group.
Tsk!
Zhang Xiaozhu didn't care whether the wound was healed or not. He picked the bandage off with the tip of the knife, then gritted his teeth and pulled the bandage off his body. He was sweating and soaking in water along the way, and the wound had already healed.
It stuck together with the bandage, and this pull directly tore open several wounds. Fortunately, the Xugu Shengji Pills are very powerful, and the deep wounds have healed, leaving only superficial scars, but they still left him
The pain was so painful that I gasped.
Snapped!
Zhang Xiaozu dropped the bloody bandage on the ground, and saw the flying "fireflies" flying straight to the bandage on the ground, and finally landed on it motionless.
In an instant, Zhang Xiaopou understood it, and at the same time, he felt chills in his heart.
It was this strange damn 'firefly' that led the girl in the red dress and her group to find him, and the girl in the red dress and her group had no good intentions when they put bandages on his wound.
I have evil thoughts towards him.
Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't figure out how bad a person must be to have evil thoughts towards a stranger he just met? Shouldn't such a person have been struck to death by a thunder from God long ago? Why can he still be alive and well? Or should he be kind?
Is there good retribution and evil retribution all deceptive bullshit?
At this moment, anger surged in Zhang Xiaopou's heart, and the idea of "being kind to others" taught to him by the old village chief was being eroded bit by bit.
"What is this?!" Zhang Xiaozhu asked, pointing to the "firefly" falling on the bandage.
"Giggle, have you discovered it? It's not too stupid, but it's a pity it's a little late." The girl in the red dress was not in a hurry to force Zhang Xiaopou to submit, but explained it to him, saying: "It's called Aiko Firefly, and it can
To find the eggs it lays within a hundred miles, you don’t need sight or smell, you rely on instinct.”
"What a magical insect." Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't restrain his surprise. He didn't blame Aiko Yingworm, he only blamed himself for being too short-sighted. He looked away from Aiko Yingworm, and then looked at the girl in the red dress and asked: "How did you kill me just now?"
Fixed at the bottom of the water so that I can’t move?”
"Boy, be careful, let me open your eyes." The red-faced old man shouted, and then he patted the void on the river with his right palm.
Zhang Xiaozu was surprised and didn't understand what he was doing. Why was he taking pictures of the river from such a distance? But then he stood there with his mouth open.
There was only a rumble, as if an invisible mountain had fallen into the river, cutting off the flowing river water. Then the river water cut into two pieces, making a roaring sound, and flew several feet high into the air.
Zhang Xiaozu's lips and tongue were dry, and he was extremely shocked inside. At the same time, he was frightened and frightened. If the red-faced old man had been struck like this just now, he would probably be cut in two like the flowing river.
"Be my slave, live, or die!" the girl in the red dress said again.
"If you die, die, so what?" Zhang Xiaozhu has no fear. He doesn't want to be a soulless walking zombie, nor does he want to die.
In order to survive, Zhang Xiaozu can make any concessions, but it is absolutely impossible to sell his freedom and soul.
"Oh, you are quite brave. Aren't you afraid of death?" the girl in the red dress asked sarcastically.
"I'm afraid of death, but I don't dare to die!" Zhang Xiaopou said.
"Haha, you dare to die. I wonder if your wife dares to die? I wonder if the fellow villagers in Daba Village dare to die?" the girl in the red dress asked. She still remembered that Zhang Xiaozu said that he was a villager in Daba Village.
"How dare you?!" Zhang Xiaozhu's eyes were red with blood. Although Daba Village was the village he was making nonsense of, it sounded to his ears like he was talking about Liujia Village.
"A group of untouchables are no better than ants. If you want to kill them, why wouldn't you dare?" the girl in the red dress said coldly.
