Chen Mu followed closely behind the three of them, carefully watching Li Duhong's every move. From time to time, Bo Wen wanted to get some valuable information out of Li Duhong's mouth, but Li Duhong was very cunning. Taking advantage of his "young and ignorant", the answers he gave were quite vague and absurd. On the contrary, it was Bowen who got a lot of words from him, let alone Cheng Ying, whenever the little guy asked her any questions in an innocent tone, she would give the answer immediately.
This kid is much more powerful than when he was a child! Chen Mu was secretly vigilant, his face remained expressionless. And after Li Duhong touched him a few times, he also lost patience with him, and instead pestered Cheng Ying and Bo Wen, asking this and that from time to time, treating Chen Mu as air.
The direction guided by Li Duhong was very consistent with the direction they were heading, and the three followed the little boy's guidance. At this time, Li Duhong showed surprising qualities. His physical strength was even comparable to that of an adult, and he was able to shuttle freely in the jungle, as calmly as he was in his own garden. He can find the water source in the shortest time, he knows what is edible and what is poisonous, and he even knows what kind of beasts may be in which area. With the help of rattan, he can swing forward like a monkey, and his speed is not even slower than Bo Wen's flying.
The three of them somewhat believed why he could survive alone in the jungle. He was too familiar with the jungle. They all believed that he had lived in the jungle since he was a child, and Chen Mu was no exception. To be familiar with the jungle to this extent, it is only possible to live here since childhood.
This also surprised the three of them. There are still people who can survive in such a poor and dangerous jungle. These humans living in the jungle, what do they rely on for a living? How to deal with those fearsome beasts? Or is their strength enough to allow them to survive freely in this perilous area
Bo Wen fell silent. For a politically sensitive son of an aristocrat, this question naturally aroused his attention and vigilance. If the village Li Duhong mentioned really had enough masters to deal with most of the beasts in the jungle, then the three of them together would not be enough for others to bite their teeth.
In this case, it is also very dangerous for them. In many cases, humans are more dangerous than beasts.
So, following Bowen's silence and Chen Mu's wooden appearance, most of the time along the way, only Cheng Ying and Li Duhong's laughter could be heard from time to time.
"Brother Bowen, what's wrong with you?" Li Duhong opened his bright black eyes with a puzzled look on his face.
Bowen forced a smile and said, "Nothing, just thought of some problems."
"What's the problem?" Cheng Ying showed a questioning expression, and she also noticed Bowen's worried and sincere appearance. Although she doesn't like some of Bowen's qualities, she has no doubts about his ability. What is he worried about? Is there something wrong with it
Bowen smiled slightly: "It's nothing. It's just a little homesick." Cheng Ying couldn't help being silent when she said this, but she smiled immediately, a gloomy look flashed in her eyes, and said: "It's better for me, alone. You don’t need to think about it anymore.”
Bowen was taken aback for a moment, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry."
Cheng Ying smiled with a bit of vicissitudes: "I'm sorry, it has nothing to do with you."
She turned her face and asked Chen Mu: "Chen Mu, what about you?"
"Me?" Chen Mu said calmly, "I have always been alone." When Chen Mu was very young, his parents died in a disaster, and he was the only one who survived. Become part of the army of waifs.
To Chen Mu, Bo Wen didn't have a good face, and sneered: "The people who come out of 'Cross Night' don't even have humanity, so how can they have families?" According to the records of the Ning family. "Cross Night" Kaxiu's training is extremely cruel. For example, the mysterious breath-holding method requires a person to live and train in an extremely dark place for a long time. Even the talented Kaxiu needs five years or even longer. After this kind of training, Kaxiu is inhumane and ruthless.
The trace of blackness in Chen Mu's eyes is a typical characteristic after practicing the breath holding method. Bowen thought that Chen Mu was Kaxiu who came out of "Cross Night", so he said this.
Chen Mu was startled, Bo Wen actually knew about "Cross Night"! What else does he know? Chen Mu hurriedly turned his head, staring at Bo Wen with burning eyes.
He never told anyone about the mysterious card, nor did he leak it. How did Bo Wen know about "Cross Night"? For "Cross Night", Chen Mu's understanding is limited to the method of holding breath. But in his heart, the mysterious card is what he cares most about, and it is also the most closely guarded secret. How can he not be surprised when someone suddenly calls out the content recorded on it
He checked the information, but did not find any information related to "Cross Night", which shows that "Cross Night" is not a well-known genre. How did Bo Wen know about "Cross Night"? All of a sudden, Chen Mu thought that Bo Wen had repeatedly tried to put himself to death, and Chen Mu finally understood a little bit!
Bo Wen wants to win the mysterious card! Although I don't know how Bo Wen knew about the mysterious card, this reason came to Chen Mu's first thought, and it was also the only reason that made sense to him. Since ancient times, it is not uncommon to be pregnant with the crime. Not to mention the mysterious card, when he was a child, he had seen many people kill people even for a piece of bread.
The world is so strange, Chen Mu doesn't know about the entanglement between Shiziye and Ning's family, and Bo Wen also doesn't know that Chen Mu's breathing method is not learned from the "Cross Night" school.
"Why, was it right?" Bo Wen continued to sneer, full of hostility.
Chen Mu was expressionless, but his eyes were as sharp as a sword, looking directly at Bo Wen, and Bo Wen also stared at Chen Mu without flinching.
Cheng Ying and Li Duhong stared blankly at the two men who were at war, they hadn't figured out the situation yet. Cheng Ying had known for a long time that something was wrong between Chen Mu and Bo Wen, but the unreserved outburst of the two was far beyond her expectations. She really wanted to persuade her to fight, but after thinking about her own strength, she kept silent rationally, and she couldn't help but have a doubt in her heart, "Cross Night", what exactly is this "Cross Night"? Why did Chen Mu react so strongly when he heard it
Li Duhong looked at the two curiously, with an expression of interest.
Silent, full of gunpowder.
Just when Cheng Ying and Li Duhong thought they were going to fight, they suddenly looked away, and their expressions returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
Li Duhong, who was about to watch a good show, opened his mouth wide and looked at the two in astonishment. His brain was a little short-circuited, and he couldn't figure out what was going on between the two. And Cheng Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief, if the two fought, it would only be a lose-lose situation, and it would be of no benefit to anyone. But thinking about it, she felt that her worry was a bit unnecessary. Both Bo Wen and Chen Mu were not impulsive people. On the contrary, they were both calm to the core. In such a dangerous situation
Chen Mu was even more silent, and Bo Wen suddenly became stingy with words, and it took a long time for a word to come out of his mouth. The atmosphere in the team suddenly became heavy, and Li Duhong also shut up obediently, and stopped asking those weird questions.
Li Duhong collects some things from time to time, and there is a pocket hanging on his waist, which contains all kinds of raw materials he collected. Sometimes Cheng Ying would also collect some rare and precious materials, and it was quite a rare opportunity to enter such a deep place in the jungle. If you don't take the opportunity to collect some, how can you be worthy of yourself? If it is possible to go out, each of these precious raw materials will be expensive. Now she only hates her lack of knowledge and the few types of precious raw materials she knows.
Whenever this time, she would always raise her head and glance at Chen Mu. She really couldn't imagine how a card maker with an A-level contribution could not even understand the most basic material science? Every time she saw Chen Mu standing in front of those precious materials with an indifferent face, she felt incredible.
However, she soon got used to it. No matter how Chen Mu looked at it, he was not an ordinary person. It was normal for a genius like him to have some weird things. It would be abnormal if everything was still the same as ordinary people.
Sitting in the camp, the bonfire was strong, illuminating everyone's faces flickering. Due to Chen Mu and Bowen's disagreement, only Cheng Ying and Li Duhong were left chatting enthusiastically there. Cheng Ying likes Li Duhong very much, so if he has any questions, he will tell him patiently and in detail.
It has been seven days since they met Li Duhong. However, because of Li Duhong, the forest guide, their quality of life in the past seven days is very different from that of the previous period. Li Duhong's jungle experience is extremely rich. He knows what kind of game meat tastes delicious, where the water source is sweeter, and even picks some wild fruits for Cheng Ying from time to time. The taste of these wild fruits is very sweet.
Chen Mu's attention was always on Li Duhong. Although the little guy had been acting very normally for the past seven days, he didn't dare to relax.
Chen Mu didn't know that while he was paying attention to Li Duhong, someone was also paying attention to him, and that was Bo Wen. Bowen was full of doubts, because he felt more and more that Chen Mu couldn't see through.
