Hoarding money to raise cubs Day 286

Silently, two more figures appeared outside the tent, and there was a movement of figures, and with a muffled grunt, a heavy object fell to the ground.

Lu Liran took out a torch from the bonfire and approached the man who was knocked down by Ke Ji.

The man fell into a coma, his body was wrapped in wild animal fur, his face was smeared with mud, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

Next to that person was a weird and grotesque patchwork of animals, similar to what Lu Liran and the others encountered back then.

The unconscious man was dragged to the campfire, and Lu Liran stared at him thoughtfully.

"When will he wake up?" Lu Liran asked Ke Ji.

"It won't be too long." Ke Ji was sure of the strength of his attack.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, the man lying by the campfire slowly woke up. He opened his eyes, looking a little dazed, as if he didn't realize why he fell to the ground.

But soon, the man suddenly turned over and got up, just about to escape, but was suppressed by Lu Liran on the ground, unable to move.

A series of strange roars came out of the man's mouth, as if he was cursing something.

"Be honest!" Lu Liran snorted, and his elbow reached the man's fragile throat. A little force was enough to make people feel the fear of suffocation.

Sure enough, the man didn't struggle any more, but just stared at Lu Liran with a pair of eyes. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and spoke jerky but clearly: "Anyone who covets Mangya Spring will die."

Lu Liran frowned slightly when he heard this, and said, "The person outside the tent was also you."

The man didn't speak, but stared at Lu Liran sullenly.

Lu Liran narrowed his eyes slightly: "Will he die?"

The man snorted and nodded.

"Is this a warning or a threat?" Lu Liran asked again.

The man still didn't make a sound.

But this time Lu Liran didn't want an answer, he turned to Ke Ji and said, "How about taking him along?"

Ke Ji frowned slightly, glanced at the tall and thin man in front of him, as if evaluating something, and after a few seconds he nodded in response: "Yes."

Under the moonlight, the man wrapped in the fur of a wild beast rolled up his body and assumed a posture of deliberately attacking, but Lu Liran sneered: "Think clearly, your attack will not have any effect, it will only make yourself tied up." No more room to breathe."

"We won't do anything to you, but I want to know some truths, or only you can tell me." Lu Liran said.

The man didn't know if he understood Lu Liran's words, a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes, but he didn't struggle anymore.

The bonfire was burning very well, and the three of them sat around the bonfire, and the men kept looking at Lu Liran and Ke Ji.

"You guys, what truth do you want?" After a long silence, the man spoke first.

"A few years ago, a group of young travelers entered the rainforest and found a local aboriginal guide, but in the end only one person came out alive. Have you heard of this incident?" Lu Liran looked at him.

The man's body was slightly stiff, but his face was smeared with mud so that people couldn't see his expression clearly.

"The purpose of those people is to look for the Mangya Spring, just because of the curiosity of young people." Lu Liran continued, "But they died in a terrible and miserable way, and the guide who brought them into the rainforest has disappeared. .”

"Many people suspected that it was the guide who lied to them and led them to a wrong path to death." Lu Liran said lightly.

Hearing this, Ke Ji looked thoughtfully at the man who was tied up—the content about the guide was temporarily fabricated by Lu Liran.

The man's eyes widened suddenly after hearing Lu Liran's words, and he looked over fiercely: "Fake! It's fake!"

A flash of clarity flashed across Lu Liran's eyes, but his eyes were still indifferent, with disregard, he fiddled with the bonfire and said, "Who knows the truth if it's real or not?"

"Now everyone knows only that group of people, only the guide is still alive, and everyone else is dead and crazy."

The man wanted to break free excitedly: "They didn't listen to the persuasion and went the wrong way! I want to save them, I reminded them..."

Lu Liran narrowed his eyes, threw the branch he was playing with into the bonfire, interrupted the man's excited words, and turned to him: "So you are the guide?"

The man froze as he struggled, his face showing surprise and panic.

"I have no malice, and I don't plan to do anything to you." Lu Liran said, "I just want to know, what was the route you pointed out to them?"

The other party quieted down, as if he had become wary of Lu Liran's previous fraud, and the already precarious trust was approaching zero.

Lu Liran looked at Ke Ji helplessly. If the other party refused to speak, he could only resort to the abnormal means of the Commander.

Fortunately, the man opened his mouth after a brief silence:

"...I didn't give them any directions."

Lu Liran frowned: "Impossible, then how would they know where to go?"

"I don't know." The man spoke bluntly, looking at Lu Liran, "but I didn't give it to them."

"I only took them to the junction of the camp and the rainforest, where a fence was erected, and they were still safe inside the fence, but they still wanted to go out." The man said, "I rejected their request and stopped being them." I thought they would give up the idea of ​​going out."

Lu Liran said: "But they still left."

"They were going to leave, but that night, around the campfire, they sat down for a bonfire feast together, and they encountered a group of guys who looked like mercenaries."

"Those people were wearing plain clothes, but I saw an unusual logo engraved on the kettle used by one of them." The man said, and described the general appearance of the logo.

Lu Liran quickly constructed a similar image in his mind, and then opened his eyes slightly - that is the symbol of the DFA Golden Team.

"Those people also planned to enter the rainforest to look for Mangya Spring. They were drinking and chatting about the legends and routes of Mangya Spring..." the man said in a low voice, with some annoyance in his eyes, "I should stop them, they What you said is wrong, those have nothing to do with Mangya Spring, those legends and the legendary route signs actually point to..."

A spark flashed in Lu Liran's mind, and he murmured, "Saiyan tribe?"

The man looked at Lu Liran suddenly: "How do you know?"

Because of the tragic death of those people. Lu Liran didn't answer, but he already had the answer in his heart.

No wonder whether it was Wang Yuanming or the soldiers of the DFA gold troop, they couldn't even find Mangya Spring in the rainforest, and they died so inexplicably and strangely.

Because the direction pointed by those clues is the Saiyan tribe, they were wrong from the beginning.

"The spring water of Mangya Spring can cure diseases. It is the common wealth of all tribes in the Aiken Rainforest. We once sold it to the outside world, but it didn't take long for us to find that the area of ​​Mangya Spring is shrinking year by year, and the water level is dropping every year. , so the Mangya spring water has become more and more precious," the man said.

Because of the rarity of Mangya Spring, the people of all tribes in the Aiken Rainforest jointly decided to hide the location of Mangya Spring.

It's just that the spring water sold has attracted a lot of covetousness, so they simply unified their caliber and blurred the real location of Mangya Spring as the location of the most powerful tribe in the Aiken Rainforest, which provided an extra layer of protection for Mangya Spring. .

It is rumored that the guardian tribe of Mangya Spring is the powerful and mysterious Saiyan tribe, but the fact is that Mangya Spring is guarded by seventy-two tribes in the entire Aiken Rainforest.

Everything was on the right track at first, but gradually, the Saiyan tribe gradually regarded Mangya Spring as their own territory, and no longer allowed other tribes to enter and exit to fetch water, and even launched more than one attack on them.

The powerful Saiyan tribe has secret tricks and traps, and they firmly take Mangyaquan as their own. Dozens of warriors from other tribes were killed and fell in the surrounding jungle of Mangya Spring. The blood and tears of tribe warriors soaked the land of Mangya Spring, contaminating that area into a veritable devil's territory.

Many tribes were hard to sustain after being wounded. Lacking the healing power of Mangya Spring, small tribes gradually disintegrated and merged. Only Saiya became the most powerful tribe in the Aiken Rainforest.

Panting, the man looked at Lu Liran, his dark eyes flashed with astonishing light and hatred: "Our tribe has disappeared, and only a few tribesmen are left, so we merged with other tribes that are also lingering .”

"The Saiyan tribe is very good at traps and poisons. Those young people who strayed into it were harmed by poisons. Those poisons can invade the skin, internal organs, blood, and even nerves, causing hallucinations." The man said.

"When I found them later, only one was still alive. He had inhaled too much poison, but his mental strength was unexpectedly tenacious, so he was always in a semi-comatose and semi-conscious state."

"But at that time, he had already cut open his abdomen, and his internal organs were..." The man paused, skipped that paragraph, without going into details, but said, "I dragged them away and sewed them up for that man." The wounds, the bleeding were stopped, and finally they were left in the middle of the traffic of the camp."

Lu Liran finally understood why Wang Yuanming appeared there, why he was still alive, and why he could use that body to bring the other corpses out of the jungle.

Like Wang Yuanming, who inhaled so many hallucinogens in the poisonous miasma, the nerve damage is almost irreversible, and his hallucinations have become part of the reality he believes.

If there really is a devil, then the devil's name is Seiya.

Lu Liran looked at the man, the sky behind the man began to light up slightly, and the morning sun had climbed to the horizon.

"I have warned you twice, if you still want to find Mangya Spring, then I wish you good luck." The man sat up straight against the tree trunk, "I will not interfere with your actions anymore, you can let go now Me?"

Lu Liran let out a "huh" and said, "I'm afraid you still have to act with us."

The man frowned, "I will not take you to find Mangya Spring. Anyone who violates Mangya Spring is our common enemy."

"But what if we can save Mangya Spring? What if we can prevent it from shrinking year after year?" Lu Liran looked at the other party.

The man was startled, and then looked at Lu Liran in disbelief.
