Monster Collector [Unlimited]

"He has the same imprint as me. In the tribal culture, only witches can use the pattern of the mother tree." Xie Changli explained.

"But why do you say he was expelled?" Mo Qi asked back, only to be secretly startled after he said the words.

There was indeed something about this contract, which easily made him lower his guard, and even unconsciously blurted out what he wanted to say.

"Because a new witch has taken office," Xia Shen replied for Xie Changli. He rarely spoke so long. When he explained, he was still staring at Xie Changli, wondering what he was thinking. Without an honorable retirement, there is no chance to hand over affairs, or even to connect with outsiders like us, and to be a valuable vase.”

The teammate shrugged: "If he still has a little respect, he won't die here now. At least some people will protect him and pay attention to him."

Xie Changli nodded: "That's true."

Of course, he was so sure because the process of the witch entering the jungle had been under his surveillance, and Xiao Hei had secretly monitored and protected him afterwards. During this process, he did not find anyone in the village who cared about the disappearance of the former witch. .

It's just... Xie Changli looked at the corpse on the stone, and what made the witch give up his previous plan to find the missing person and come to this place instead.

"According to my current understanding of tribal witch culture," Xie Changli pressed the pattern on his wrist, "this scene looks like a sacrifice."

He recited some common sense that his aunt taught him during this period: "All power needs to be exchanged. Whenever you gain something, you will lose something. The blood of the witch is the most precious sacrifice among them, the key to unlock all things. "

"Open?" The teammate quickly understood what he meant, "You mean that the cave was not here or it hasn't been opened yet, but he used his own blood as a medium to open this place."

While the two were talking, Xia Shen took the lead in striding into the cave with his sword in hand.

The cave was dark, only the wind blowing from the depths carried a slight coolness and an almost undetectable smell of blood.

He suddenly stopped, and stretched out a hand, just pressing on Xie Changli's shoulder, preventing him from moving forward: "There is a trap ahead."

Teammate: "Shall I go check it out first?"

Mo Qi touched his nose, thinking that he should also show his due role at this time, took a step forward, and was about to speak.

"No need." Xie Changli had already spoken, slightly tiptoed and stretched out his hand, the index finger and middle finger had already clamped the badge with the tour group logo pinned to his chest, and sent it forward casually.

The badge drew a curve in the air, and even before it landed, a series of mechanism changes had been assembled.

There was a rumbling sound in the entire cave, and countless sharp arrows that were quenched with poison and exuded a faint blue light were shot from all directions.

Xia Shen raised his long sword with his right hand, and easily blocked several arrows. Then with his left hand, he grabbed Mo Qi who had just stepped forward and was covered in the rain of arrows, and threw him back by the collar.

"Be careful." The teammate supported him with a smile, and simply straightened his collar, trying to hide Xia Shen's slightly rough actions just now.

Xie Changli tugged lightly, pulled back the badge of the tour group again, and threw it back into Mo Qi's hand.

It turned out that when he threw the badge, he had already tied a thin thread on it with a universal tool, and it was still intact at the moment, returning it to its original owner.

Mo Qi's expression was dull: ...

"Take your expression down, please." Xie Changli said politely, if he ignored his slightly puzzled and surprised expression.

Mo Qi swears that he really read the words "this contract will not lower your intelligence" from the other party's eyes.

However, the two who cooperated with each other clearly had no intention of continuing to communicate with him. The two of them got together a long time ago and began to carefully analyze the distribution of organs in this area, what kind of poison was on the arrows that fell on the ground, etc. .

The more Mo Qi listened, the more he felt that he was shining: "Have the two of them always been like this?"

"Almost," the teammate stretched, and looked at Xia Shen with almost gratified eyes, "I finally have some vitality in my body."

Mo Qi's pupil quake: Is homosexuality so common now? You should be surprised!

"It should be such a route." Xie Changli and Xia Shen have roughly judged the situation of the agency. Of course, this is also due to the credit of Xiao Hei who followed the old man and Xiao Motuan in the dark. "There may be points in the future." Fork, we have to go in groups."

The teammate nodded, glanced at Xia Shen's eyes that were paying attention to Xie Changli whether intentionally or not, and very actively pulled Mo Qi: "I'm on the same team as him."

The mechanism in the cave was rough in front of experienced missioners. They passed the rain of arrows, the collapsed pit, the broken bridge and the dark river, and soon came to the fork leading to two directions.

There was no light in the depths of the cave, and everyone lit a candle to judge the current situation by the dim light.

Xie Changli put the candlelight close to the wall, which were covered with colorful paintings, which vaguely outlined some patterns about war sacrifices, harvest and victory: "According to the laws of most civilizations, this cave should be used to record history and hold large-scale activities. required venue."

"However," he changed his style of painting, "the place of celebration does not need so many organs, I can only judge from the time of the traces left, this used to be a place for celebration and sacrifice, now it is more like A place to keep secrets or hold prisoners."

"Well, many of the characters above have animal features, does this also imply the totem worship of their different families?" Mo Qi asked in a low voice.

"Maybe." Xie Changli replied, but there is another possibility.

He raised the lighted candle, which illuminated the pattern between the forks, an abstract painting of a huge mother tree with luxuriant branches and leaves expanding on both sides.

"From the patterns on both sides, one leads to the future, and the other leads to the past." Xie Changli said softly.

Xia Shen: "Where do you want to go?"

"I want to know more about the history of this tribe," Xie Changli thought for a while, "What about you?"

Xia Shen didn't say much, nodded, and took the lead on the left road.

Xie Changli was slightly taken aback in order to convince him that the drafts he had typed up were useless, but the other party also noticed that he didn't follow up immediately, turned around and cast a questioning look.

"It's okay." Xie Changli inexplicably felt better, "Let's go."

Mo Qi had no choice but to follow towards the mysterious and unpredictable future passage, still couldn't help sighing and thinking: "I'm really full, really."

"There is movement ahead." The teammates stopped suddenly.

Mo Qi also became vigilant, he held a bone needle in his hand, and at the same time secretly prayed in his heart that there would be no more scenes of being chased by monkeys.

God knows that he is just a mediocre, ordinary worker, who finally saved up money to buy this big baby. I don't know how much he spent on this wave of missions.

If another A-level item was wasted, it would be better for him to die here.

"Let's go!" Before the teammate had time to distinguish the situation ahead, they ran wildly, "There is something coming from behind!"

Without further ado, Mo Qi quickly put on the speeding ring, barely kept up with the opponent's footsteps, and at the same time did not forget to look back, and suddenly couldn't hold back: "Fuck!"

They didn't know what creature was following them underground, and they could only see a growing mound of mound, which was almost as wide as the passageway. From the size, they could tell what kind of colossal creature was below.

His teammate ran all the way, and what greeted him after turning the corner was no longer the inherent darkness in the corridor, but a bright beam of light.

After the subconscious surprise, the teammates saw the scene in front of them clearly, and their hearts suddenly became cold.

At this time, they had come to the end of the cave, the side of the cliff that was not covered by trees in this mountain forest, facing them was only the huge waterfall that flew straight down from the top of the opposite mountain!

"There's no way ahead!" He turned his head and yelled.

"I'm catching up. If there is no way, there must be a way!" Mo Qi slowed down. At this time, the monster lurking below in the mound was almost approaching his back, and his scalp was numb. Seeing the cliff in front of him, he gritted his teeth and took out new props from his pocket again.

The hang glider opened in the air, and the two of them flew all the way to the opposite mountain.

The water droplets splashed by the waterfall and the dense fog instantly enveloped the two of them. In the lost field of vision, the teammates also panicked: "Can you determine the direction?"

"Don't question my vision in choosing things," Mo Qi finally raised his eyebrows, proving himself, "Waterproof, anti-electricity and automatic navigation, escaping...does first-class tasks."

The bullet screen suddenly flashed hahaha:

"If I'm not mistaken, he originally wanted to say that this is the escape treasure, right?"

"As expected of you, King Gou."

"I have read some of his previous mission records, and there are indeed endless escape routes and life-saving tools."

As Mo Qi said, to survive, he is a professional. He can do it when he should be stupid and hug his thigh, and he can be completely reliable when he should be self-reliant.

The two landed smoothly in the dense fog, and they happened to be standing above the waterfall. A river with a large flow flowed by their feet, and there were huge rushing sounds in their ears.

Teammates have better eyesight than Mo Qi, and looked all the way along the source of the river, and soon saw a slightly fluorescent area.

"There seems to be something there." He must not believe it. The so-called fork that marks the future is to send them out of the cave directly. The anomaly in front is probably the real purpose of this passage.

Only by putting them to death can there be a glimmer of hope.

The teammate gave himself a thumbs up in his heart: Yes, this is very in line with the style of Wu who likes to play all kinds of fables.

The two immediately kept their vigilance and approached the place emitting light, but they didn't notice the footsteps covered by the sound of the huge water, until a series of black shadows stumbled out of the trees.

The two sides were caught off guard through the thick fog and took a look at each other's faces, and recognized each other immediately.

"It was the tourist who was in the car with me before." Mo Qi explained in a low voice.

Obviously these people suffered a lot in the supply area, only five people came out, covered in wounds and mud, and their eyes were terrified.

Finally someone on the opposite side recognized him: "Mo Qi?"

Immediately, someone said: "I have seen the one next to me, are you the one in the car behind, and they are also tourists!"

Finding an acquaintance made everyone on the opposite side heave a sigh of relief. Among them, the leading adult man stepped forward, grabbed Mo Qi, and emphasized: "We must unite now!"

The teammate frowned slightly. It doesn't need to be very sharp. Anyone who has seen a similar situation will find that the mental state of the five people on the opposite side is extremely unstable. If there is also a mental value display, it may be close to negative.

"Of course." Mo Qi didn't want to anger the five people on the opposite side, and asked along the words, "What do you think?"

The man showed an exaggerated and abnormal smile, and murmured in a low voice——

"Blood Sacrifice Mother Tree, the fog clears! This is the only way for us to survive!"
