Chapter 87 Savage Tribe
So before dawn the next day, I endured the pain all over my body and urged Wei Shengjin to get up and set off. Fortunately, our physiques were very unusual, so Wei Shengjin put on the snakeskin vest he made at night and threw another one to me.
, it feels quite light when I put it on, but I don’t know if it has any protective effect. In this primitive deep forest, a little more protection is better than none.
We once again came to the place where we encountered the giant snake yesterday. We saw that the vegetation was in a mess and the trees were broken. Looking at this scene, I was really scared. If it weren't for the piranhas in the river, I might have turned into snake dung by now.
Wei Shengjin and I searched along the direction in which Ivan escaped yesterday in our memory. On the way, we also saw the strips of cloth hanging on the branches to wrap Yifan's injured leg, but there was no trace of Yifan. Could it be that something unexpected happened to him?
What? He doesn’t have the physique of Wei Shengjin and me that are different from ordinary people, and the injury on his leg has not healed. If he encounters a wild animal or something, he will probably be completely unable to fight back. The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became and I couldn’t help but speed up my pace.
After walking for more than an hour, no trace of Ivan was found on the road. After we climbed over a hill, our eyes suddenly opened up. A wide river bed appeared in front of us. I guess it was the same river as yesterday. The riverside
There were several canoes made of hollowed-out tree trunks parked, but there was no one around them. The river was wide and flowing slowly.
There were rows of thatched houses in the woods on the other side, and people could be vaguely seen walking among them. I breathed a huge sigh of relief, thinking that I finally found a human settlement. Ivan had probably escaped to this village. We can also go there.
I want to order some food and rest for a while.
So Wei Shengjin and I set up a canoe on the shore and crossed the river.
I was happily about to go straight to the group of people sitting around, when Wei Shengjin grabbed me and said:
"Wait a minute! Take a look at what they are doing first."
I stretched my head and took a closer look.
I saw dozens of naked people, their faces and bodies painted with red and black oil paint, sitting on the ground around a large fire. Something was roasting on the fire. Some of them were happily talking about something with their companions, and some
People kept stuffing things into their mouths, and some people were gnawing on bones.
"Didn't you see they were eating? We happened to go over to them to order some food! Aren't you hungry?" I shook off Wei Shengjin's hand and said.
"You see clearly. Look carefully at what they are holding. Do you dare to eat it?"
As soon as I heard what he said, I felt something was wrong, so I quietly took a few steps forward and hid behind a hut to watch carefully. When I saw this, I suddenly felt my scalp numb and shuddering, and the wounds all over my body started to hurt...
…
It turned out that the bone that the man was holding in his hand and gnawing on was clearly a human calf, because the toes were still attached to it, and the other man was holding a human arm and gnawing on it with gusto. His mouth was full of blood, and he was gnawing with relish. There was a thick bone on the fire.
Half of a human corpse was being roasted on a branch, and the head of the corpse was missing. It was really terrifying! I had never seen such a scene even in nightmares, but now it was really presented in front of me. My stomach ache
I felt so overwhelmed that I couldn't bear it any longer, so I vomited it out with a loud sound.
"This is a group of cannibal tribes!" Wei Shengjin followed me and whispered.
Yifan hasn't been found yet, no way...I suddenly became flustered!
Then we saw the group of savages barking wildly, throwing away the food in their hands, and running towards the direction where we were hiding. It seemed that they had been discovered.
"What should I do?" Wei Shengjin asked me.
"There's nothing I can do. I'll kill them as a last resort! What the hell is wrong with eating, I have to eat people!" I took out a throwing knife and answered categorically. It was really terrifying and disgusting.
We walked out from behind the thatched house without waiting for the group of savages to approach. Wei Shengjin had already held the flying knife in his hand, and I was ready to take action at any time. We couldn't defeat the giant snake and killed these dozens of savages.
Still no problem.
The group of savages were completely naked, with only two leaves hanging one after another around their waists. They were really environmentally friendly and natural. They croaked and ran not far away, but they all stopped. Then they turned out to be in twos and threes.
They all knelt in front of us, kowtowed and kowtowed, and murmured words!
"What does this mean? Do they have to consecrate us before eating us? Does it taste better?" Wei Shengjin murmured to himself.
For a moment, I was just as confused as Monk Zhang Er and couldn’t figure out what was going on.
After a long time, I watched this group of cannibals gesticulating about the snakeskin vests we were wearing, and then I suddenly realized: these savages have been living here and must have encountered giant snakes. They worship giant snakes as gods.
Today I saw that we were wearing vests that looked like the skin of a giant snake. I guess we thought we were the messengers of the giant snake. Anyway, we felt that we had some kind of relationship with the giant snake.
I explained the reason to Wei Shengjin and he felt it made sense and relaxed immediately.
Then this group of savages surrounded us and walked towards the place where we had just eaten human flesh. I guess that was their open-air canteen. Did they want to invite us to a feast of human flesh?
Wei Shengjin and I were reluctant to go there. Those savages were smart and seemed to know what we were afraid of. They cleaned up the place in a short time. We walked over slowly, I thought it didn’t matter.
What, I have to ask them about Ivan.
When we came to the fire, we saw that the soil on the ground around it was already red and black. It can be seen that this is their fixed slaughterhouse! Look at the surrounding thatched houses, which are all made of branches and sticks, and then coated with mud.
The roofs are covered with thick thatch. Each room is ten square meters in size. Not only men but also women and children are coming in and out of dozens of rooms. They are all naked except for their waists.
There are a few leaves hanging.
Looking at this group of savages who were in awe of us, I thought to myself: How can I find out about Ivan if I don't speak their language?
So Wei Shengjin and I were dancing and gesticulating with the savages, trying to communicate, but in the end we were exhausted and made no progress. A savage thought we were hungry and brought a human arm over. It scared me.
He and Wei Shengjin ran away screaming.
Later, I braved the courage and followed the savage into a thatched hut. I saw dozens of dried human arms and legs hanging from the beams on the wall. There were even those of children, and their heads were soaked in a kind of green water.
In the liquid. Damn it! Are you saving it for the Chinese New Year? I covered my nose and suppressed the waves of nausea and nausea. I looked carefully at the heads one by one, and they were all their own! Thank God, I didn’t see them.
To Yifan.
Just when we were at our wits' end and didn't know whether to leave or stay, we heard wailing sounds coming from a hut next to us. Could it be that we were creating humans at home in broad daylight? That's not impossible! We don't work hard to create humans.
