Chapter 438 Mr. Pate, the patriarch wants to see you. (Dazhang asked for a monthly pass)
"you know?"

Howe glanced at the young man.

He threw the tied young man out of the car, and while pointing the gun at the young man, he picked up everything on the ground and threw it into the car, including Sombra's body.

When the young man saw the black shadow's corpse, he shrank his head and turned his eyes to the other side. He didn't dare to ask who it was, but slowly narrated,
"The Andavi family used to be the overlord of the nearby wilderness area. It is said that they are a family blessed by the gods. There are often powerful extraordinary people in the family. All wilderness wanderers in the wilderness respect them."

The young man glanced at He Ao, and continued, "But they are very mysterious, and they rarely interfere with the affairs of other wanderer families and camps."

"Was it?"

He Ao took Aini's small suitcase out of the previous off-road vehicle and threw it into the back of the new off-road vehicle, asking casually.

"Of course, the current overlord of this wilderness is our Merck family, and our high priest is already a C-level powerhouse!"

The young man said with some pride, and then he glanced at He Ao's calm and expressionless face, and said angrily, "But you're not as good as Uncle."

He didn't know how strong He Ao was, and whether he could beat the high priest.

But regardless of whether He Ao can beat the high priest or not, He Ao can easily kill him now.

The high priest can't decide his life or death now, but He Ao can.

But his flattery seems to be in the wrong position.

He Ao didn't show any expression, just packed up everything and saluted, and threw the young man on the passenger seat again, "Continue to talk about the Andavi family."

"The Andavi family is fine," the young man climbed into the car,

"After the high priest was promoted to C-level, he found that the Andavi family was just like that. The strongest ones were only D-level. The high priest seems to be thinking about whether to rob the Andavi family recently. The Andavi family has existed for so many years, and there must be one. Lots of good stuff."

"In other words, do you know where the Andavi family is located?"

He Ao sat in the driver's seat and closed the door, "Take me there."

The young man blinked and looked at He Ao, "Why are you looking for the Andavi family?"

His eyes moved slowly down, as if thinking.

He Ao glanced at the young man calmly, held the steering wheel with one hand, and pulled out the other hand instantly.

boom--

The young man didn't even see He Ao's movements clearly, the gunshot rang out immediately, and the scorching bullets flew against his scalp.

It jolted his mind back and took away his courage.

"If you take me to the wrong place, for example, you bring me into your camp, you can bet that your C-level high priest is faster, or my gun is faster."

The young man glanced at the muzzle of the gun that was almost standing in front of him, still smoking slightly, and a drop of cold sweat emerged from his forehead.

"Look at what you said, I'm sure I'll put you in the right place."

He forced a smile and nodded slowly and stiffly.

He Ao didn't speak, just put down the gun calmly, started the vehicle,
The Mercedes-Benz off-road vehicle turned around and entered the rain again.

This off-road vehicle that originally belonged to the Merck family is larger than the small off-road vehicle He Ao just drove, with a higher chassis and more complex terrain to adapt to.

Under the guidance of the young man, He Ao slowly drove off the flat road and entered the dark wilderness.

Different wilderness environments are different, and the powerful beasts inhabit are different. If there is no old hunter who is familiar with the environment to guide the way, it is easy to stray into the territory of the powerful beasts and become their 'late night takeaway'.

The young man did not act as a demon, and he was very careful in guiding the way. After all, he knew very well that if he encountered a powerful strange beast, he would not be able to escape.

Soon, He Ao drove the off-road vehicle into a somewhat familiar area again.

Under the dark evening wind, the tall weeds swayed with the wind, and among the weeds, one or two white spots could be faintly seen.

That's a ghost mushroom.

This is the periphery of the ghost mushroom area.

A faintly seductive fragrance poured into He Ao's nostrils.

This time, Aini didn't talk nonsense, and directly entered the mode of martial arts practice.

"There is no way here. To get here, you have to go through the area of ​​these man-eating mushrooms."

The young man glanced at He Ao carefully, and said slowly.

"It's okay, you continue to guide the way."

He Ao looked calm.

The young man looked at He Ao's face for a long time, trying to see the strange look on He Ao's face.

But what was given back to him was He Ao Gujing's calm face.

Then he raised his head and glanced at the rearview mirror, and found that Aini behind her also had her eyes closed. Although she didn't know what she was doing, she seemed to be resisting the temptation of the ghost mushroom.

At this moment, he finally understood that the two people in front of him were not afraid of ghost mushrooms at all.

His natural resistance advantage against ghost mushrooms is also gone.

However, his mood adjusted quickly, the expression on his face basically remained unchanged, and he still maintained a flattering smile, "Go forward, go to that stone, and turn right."

The large off-road vehicle walked slowly and bumpily in the dark mountains.

He Ao didn't dare to drive too fast, after all, the night road was dangerous and it was raining, if the car overturned accidentally, it would be troublesome.

Of course, you can't stop, the longer you stay in the ghost mushroom area, the stronger its attraction will seem.

However, perhaps because the ghost mushroom continued to hunt and kill the surrounding life, there were basically no surviving alien beasts at the edge of the ghost mushroom's sphere of influence, and He Ao and the others were not attacked by alien beasts.

Walked over quietly all the way.

Howard glanced out of the car window.

Animals that can move around here, and that may come here, may have been hunted down by the ghost mushrooms, so that this place has fallen into a vacuum of life.

During the time since the convoy escaped to the area near the ghost mushroom, he had not encountered any strange beasts.

At first he thought it was safer to build this road, but now it seems that these are all the 'credit' of the ghost mushroom.

This piece of night is too quiet, as quiet as a dead zone.

Ghost mushrooms are not only a threat to humans, but also a threat to any living creature.

Under the guidance of the young man, He Ao slowly drove away from the area where the Phantom Mushroom was located. Gradually, some night voices appeared in his ears.

It was the neighing of some insects, and the sound of some not-so-strong beasts running in the grass.

I don't know how long it took, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and the bright moonlight appeared in the sky.

And in front of He Ao, there was a faint brilliance.

These radiances are hidden in a valley, with cliffs on one side and stone walls on the other three sides, forming a small 'camp'.

This residence is already different from the residence He Ao described in the travel notes. Obviously, the Andawi family changed their residence during this period of time.

This is the case with the Wilderness Wanderer family, who often change their residences.

When the surrounding prey is finished, or a powerful beast appears around, change to another place.

They won't have the situation where Ronald's camp met A-level beasts migrating and had to move painfully and lose a lot of strength.

But such behavior habits also determine that their family population will not be too large.

But also because of this, wilderness wanderer families are generally very united.

chirp——

Before He Ao got close to the camp, there were crisp birdsongs around him.

This is actually the prompt sound from the surrounding whistle, which means 'a guest is coming'.

He Ao slowly slowed down the speed of the car.

This 'bird call' was also intended for He Ao.

If you are a person in the wilderness, or a person who understands the rules of the wilderness, when you hear the sound of birds, you will slow down and wait for the 'master' to greet you.

If it is someone who does not know the rules of the wilderness, or someone who is not kind, they will not respond, then the 'master' may need to prepare for battle.

This can roughly tell the identity of the person and whether the person has good intentions.

Not long after He Ao's speed slowed down, lights came on in the distance, and a motorcycle hidden in the grass rushed out from the surrounding grass, blocking He Ao's way.

The rider was a middle-aged man with light brown hair and some wrinkles on his face.

He glanced at the off-road vehicle, his eyes darkened, "People of the Merck family, what are you doing here?"

He Ao opened the car door and got out of the car.

The middle-aged man straightened up instantly.

There was a slight rustling sound from the surrounding grass.

He Ao raised his arms politely, showing his empty hands, then walked to the co-pilot, dragged the young man out, and threw him on the ground, he glanced at the middle-aged man, "This car is not mine. "

The middle-aged man looked at the tightly bound young man, and looked at He Ao suspiciously, "So who are you and why are you here?"

"I'm just a refugee," He Ao said calmly, "Come here to find a temporary place to live, and by the way,"

He paused, "Look for the Fountain of Youth."

The face of the middle-aged man changed slightly.

······
after an hour,

He Ao was brought into the camp after the middle-aged man radioed several times to ask certain high-level figures within the family.

The construction of the whole camp house is very simple.

A simple enclosed space was made with wood and a convertible, and it was directly used as a house to live in.

Those who were still awake in the camp looked curiously at these uninvited guests who came late at night.

The young man He Ao captured was taken away by the middle-aged man, and shortly after that, someone who claimed to be under the middle-aged man came over and specially pitched a relatively spacious tent for He Ao in the middle of the camp. .

The skeleton of this tent is made of hard and extremely tough alloy steel. It is divided into two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a living room, and each is equipped with simple furniture. It looks like a very high-end residence.

This is a respect for He Ao's strength.

In the wilderness, the strong are respected.

In the process of entering the camp, the middle-aged man had already learned what He Ao had done from the young captive of the Merck family.

Break through the encirclement of the Merck family, suppress the sniper of the Merck family, and fight back when the equipment is inferior to the sniper in the encounter.

These things are enough to be respected by wilderness wanderers.

After seeing the middle-aged man set up such a tent for He Ao, the people around looked at He Ao and his daughter differently.

Aini had never received such a gaze.

She leaned very close to He Ao cautiously.

She is good-looking, has good grades, and is considered a much-anticipated little princess in school.

But the attention in the city is more or less reserved. Everyone abides by the rules and maintains basic reason.

And the gaze on the wilderness is really aggressive gaze, as if wishing to strip off their father and daughter's clothes.

He Ao gently blocked his daughter and cut off the sight of wanderers in the surrounding wilderness.

He smiled slightly at the wilderness wanderers around him, and walked into the tent with his daughter holding the salute, and closed the curtain.

That's how it is in the wild.

Both men and women, wilderness wanderers are more eager to be with the strong, which means that their offspring are more likely to survive.

This is human instinct.

Of course, there are also those reserved people in the wilderness, but because they couldn't find a strong mate, they didn't leave any offspring in the end, and their genes disappeared.

This is evolution.

······
"So we survived?"

After walking into the tent, Aini slapped her face lightly.

"What? You think you're going to die?"

He Ao smiled and packed his luggage.

"There were times when I thought I was dying."

Aini let out a long breath, and then she looked around worriedly, "Is this the wilderness... Dad, are we really safe staying here?"

"The Andavi family probably still respects the rules."

He Ao sat on the sofa in the living room and looked at his daughter, "You should find a room to sleep first, I will keep watch tonight."

Judging from the travel note that He Ao found, since the author of the travel note was able to enter the camp of the Andawi family, obtain information, and come out safely, it proves that the Andawi family is not completely incommunicable.

The author also said that the Andavi family is very hospitable.

However, He Ao expressed doubts about this "hospitality". The rules in the wilderness are different, and almost no family of wanderers in the wilderness is hospitable.

The camp is still possible. After all, the camp wants to make money, so fake smiles can still be made.

The cruel environment makes the wilderness wanderers more straightforward in personality, especially the wilderness wanderer family, it is reasonable and orderly not to "kill customers", let alone "hospitality".

However, based on what He Ao entered the camp just now, and the information in Ronal's memory, it seems that the Andawi family tends to be a law-abiding faction, and they will not introduce people into the camp and kill them secretly.

After He Ao let her daughter into the house to rest, Aini did not leave.

She glanced at her father, then slowly sat down next to He Ao, and said softly,

"Dad, go to sleep. I know what kind of medicine you took to suddenly become so powerful. You almost passed out after finishing the beating last night. Don't hold on, I will rely on you in the future Well, if something really goes wrong with you, what will I do in the future, here in the wilderness..."

Howo looked at Aini's cheek.

There were already some tears in the little girl's eyes, which looked sparkling.

She turned her head away, wiped her eyes with her hands, and then quickly turned back, "Anyway, you should rest for a while, after I practiced your breathing method, my health is much better. I can keep watch in the first half of the night. What can I do?" Just call you."

He Ao looked at his daughter's cheeks and showed a gentle smile. He touched his daughter's head, "My Aini has grown up."

"It's said that touching your head will make you a fool," Aini pouted, "I'm already 16 years old, of course when I grow up, I can take the driver's license test."

He Ao smiled, he leaned on the soft sofa, slowly closed his eyes,

As his body relaxed, a huge sense of fatigue hit his heart.

This time the fatigue was slightly weaker than last time, because he was restraining himself from using super memory most of the time, but the powerful exhaustion of his overdrawn body still made him unable to move in an instant.

Aini looked at her father, who was leaning on the sofa and fell asleep immediately, and was still snoring, and sighed.

She got up, put her father's body down on the sofa with great difficulty, then took out a quilt from the inner room, and covered her father.

It was raining again outside, and the raindrops hit the top of the tent, making a soft sound.

In the middle of the night, He Ao opened his eyes and woke up from a deep sleep.

This was his first good night's sleep after starting this mission. Although he still maintained part of his body's sense of the outside world and did not fall asleep, his spirit did recover well.

He glanced at Aini, who was holding her face in a daze, and smiled.

There is a little girl's bracelet on the table, which has been played and has run out of battery.

His hand shook in front of his daughter's eyes a few times, and Ai Ni suddenly realized that she sat up abruptly, staring blankly at He Ao, "Dad, are you awake?"

"Go back and sleep for a while."

Howard smiled.

······
He Ao asked Aini to go back to the room to sleep, while he dug out the instant coffee prepared for him by the middle-aged man and made a cup of coffee.

The raindrops outside were still falling, He Ao sipped his coffee to the sound of the rain.

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning poured down the window of the tent, the closed door curtain was slowly pushed open, the middle-aged man who brought He Ao in yesterday looked at He Ao with deep eyes,

"Mr. Pate, the patriarch wants to see you."
