Standing on the bow of the ship, Karon shouted to Sharon and the others: "I will only wait here for 48 hours. If you don't come back after 48 hours, I will leave."

Norman said coldly: "If you still want to get a follow-up commission, you'd better wait a few more days."

Karon’s expression immediately became miserable: "It’s not that I’m not waiting for you, boss, it’s too dangerous in the rainforest. It’s safer to keep moving, but if you stay in one place for too long, it’s easy to be caught by someone in the rainforest. Some things are watching."

"Find one for you!"

Daqi handed over a pistol.

Caron pursed his lips: "In the rain forest, this thing is not as practical as a knife."

"up to you."

Dach took the gun back again.

The group of people stepped on the muddy water that hadn't had their calves and tried to walk into the depths of the rainforest. The towering tree canopy obscures the sky and the sun, and the weeds as high as one person just block the line of sight, not to mention negligence and distraction, even if you concentrate on it, you may lose your way.

Fortunately, Norman has a small and advanced locator in his hand, which can indicate the position at any time. In addition, Dach and others are experienced veterans, so the only thing that hinders the team's speed is the rugged and muddy rainforest.

"At this speed, we should be able to return in less than 48 hours."

Norman whispered to Sharon.

Xie Lun nodded, suddenly shot, and flew a colorful spider from Norman's body, and smiled: "There is no accident on the premise."

Norman was taken aback: "What is that?"

"Beauty spider, the most common kind of venomous spider in Amazon." Billy, who has always been taciturn, said, "Although it will not be fatal, as long as it is bitten, an adult will be paralyzed within ten minutes, even I can't speak."

Norman's face was not only pale when he heard the words.

Billy looked at Xie Lun: "You're great, and it's the first time I saw someone, and I dared to touch that kind of thing with my hands."

Xie Lun smiled and said, "You are also very powerful. You can see such a small spider clearly."

"Because I grew up in this environment, the rain forest is like my home."

With that said, Billy drew out the machete, stepped forward, and replaced Dach by chopping the weeds and vines that stretched out around him to clear the way for the team.

After walking in this way for more than two hours, the ground under my feet gradually changed from muddy mud water to a solid mountain road. Although it was still slippery, it was much easier to walk than before, and the trees became sparser.

Daqi looked around vigilantly, frowning and said, "It seems that there are traces of someone's life here."

Norman said solemnly: "According to statistics, there are still primitive tribes in the Amazon rainforest. They live isolated lives and maintain the same living habits as their ancestors. Even..."

He laughed wickedly: "They are also cannibals."

"what?"

Except for Sharon, everyone else turned their eyes slightly to Norman.

"Just kidding." Norman waved his hand. "The headhunters stopped headhunting more than a hundred years ago. The so-called headhunting has also turned into a sacrificial ritual."

"and many more!"

Billy, who opened the road in front, suddenly squatted down and raised his fist to signal the team to stop.

Everyone squatted down and watched the surroundings vigilantly. Dacci held the gun, walked forward with cat waist, and whispered: "What's the situation?"

Billy did not speak. He stretched out his hand and rubbed it on the front blade of grass. Then he spread his fingers and looked at the red on the fingers. He leaned to the front of his nose and smelled it. He whispered, "Human blood, it shouldn't last more than 24 hours. ."

Dackey looked at the blood-stained weeds and slowly raised his head to look up. At this moment, there was a crisp sound, and a dark object suddenly fell from the canopy, just in front of Dacci.

"Damn it, what is that?"

The next few players almost fired in shock.

Daqi frowned and looked forward, his face changed immediately, and he took a slight breath, turned his head and said to Norman: "Are you sure those natives are no longer headhunting?"

Norman frowned: "What do you mean?"

Daqi pointed forward, and several people leaned forward to take a look, only to see a male body with a twisted shapeshifting. It is small in size, and you can tell it is a local aboriginal at a glance.

"He was not murdered."

Billy squatted next to the corpse and looked carefully: "The whole body is shattered, the body is elongated and shapeshifting, and there is no obvious trauma."

He turned his head and looked at the crowd: "You should all know how the python hunts? After it catches the prey, it will use its body to entangle the prey, strangle and stretch all the bones of the prey, and then open its mouth wide and give it a breath. Swallow it in."

Norman looked at the shapeshifting corpse, his throat a little sore, and his stomach began to churn. The others also felt terrified, and raised their guns to aim around them, fearing that a giant python would suddenly come out and swallow themselves.

"However, after an anaconda is successfully hunted, it will take a long time to digest food, so logically speaking, we should be safe."

Proportion was a little confused and said, "But if he was eaten by a python, why would he be here again?"

"When the python is in danger, it will spit out food to make it easier for itself to fight or escape."

Xie Lun spoke quietly at this moment.

As soon as this statement was made, everyone, including Billy, turned blue.

A python that can swallow people is scary enough, and in the end there are still things that can pose a threat to that python.

"We can't stay here anymore, we must leave quickly."

With an order from Daqi, everyone set off again. Despite walking for more than two hours, everyone except Xie Lun felt a little tired, but under the spur of the corpse, the pace was faster.

"There is an indigenous tribe nearby, and what we are going to is there now."

Norman's forehead was covered with sweat, and he didn't know if he was tired or was scared by the corpse just now.

Ramirez stuttered a little: "It's not the headhunter you just mentioned, right?"

Norman said in a huff: "I've said it a long time ago, they have stopped headhunting long ago."

Xie Lun raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it the blood orchid's information that these headhunters told you?"

Norman didn't feel embarrassed, and simply nodded and said: "Yes, only these indigenous people living in the primitive rainforest can accurately find the traces of blood orchids."

In this way, the group walked for nearly an hour. They were all a little exhausted. When they were panting, Billy, who opened the road in front, found a bamboo tower made of bamboo on the side of the road. There were a bunch of charred bones on it. .

"This is the cemetery of the tribe," Norman explained, holding on to the trunk next to him, panting with some effort, "They think that when people are buried in the ground, their souls will be drawn into hell. Only when exposed to the outside can the soul be Return to the rainforest and be one with nature."

He took a few breaths, stepped forward, and said solemnly: "Although this tribe is no longer headhunting, it is still full of vigilance against outsiders, so you must not make a loud noise next, and all actions are subject to my command."

Looking at the bamboo pagodas piled with bones on the side of the road, even those mercenaries like Dackey who did not blink, felt his scalp numb, and at the same time nodded obediently.

But when the group of people passed through the cemetery and entered the tribal territory, they realized that they didn't need to be careful.

I saw corpses lying on the ground all the way, and there were no living people.
