Everyone's wounds had been treated, they had rested, and they had eaten their meals. Everyone was about to go on their way, but the snake blocked their way.
"It's already twelve o' clock. Everyone has been resting for four hours. It's almost time for us to hurry. But now that we're lost, we don't know where we're going to go. If we go the wrong way and continue to go deep into the rainforest, I'm afraid we'll never be able to go back."
The rainforest was too large and the trees were too tall for them to even differentiate directions, let alone see things outside.
Lin yuxuan looked at liu yuqiang, who was not pretending to be dead, and said, "Mayor, I'm afraid that this mission will fail this time. If the other party doesn't call us, we're afraid that they will kill us. You have to be mentally prepared."
"I know."
He had long thought of this idea. He had even thought that he would not be able to leave. The other party had obviously come for a purpose, not for money or power, but for his life.
Since she wanted him dead, she would not let go of her son's hostage.
Although he knew this was the truth, he still held a lucky heart and thought that those people would let his son off.
Seeing that liu yuqiang was a little sad, liu chen said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's leave this place first. It's good to leave early. This place is really too uncomfortable."
Although they were surrounded by snakes, they had prepared quite a lot of realgar when they came, so they naturally wouldn't be afraid of these snakes.
However, they seemed to have experienced the same experience. Although those snakes were afraid that xionghuang wouldn't dare to approach them, they still followed them and never left.
"Big brother, how did you get to the heavenly pit?"
Since the journey was boring, liu chen had no choice but to chat with nie junao. With nie junao's intelligence, he would never easily fall for those monkeys and run to the tiankeng to be a live target for those little monkeys.
Nie junao frowned at the mention of this. Recalling what happened that day, he said, "A monkey suddenly attacked us and took lin yuxuan's bag. When lin yuxuan ran to chase after us, I followed him too. I just didn't expect that they were all there. Fortunately, Murong hai stayed."
If Murong hai hadn't stayed behind and something happened to liu chen, he really wouldn't know what to do.
"After we ran out after that monkey, we got lost. We followed lin yuxuan to the pit of heaven and were set up by that group of monkeys to become the target of those little monkeys."
He could have left by himself to protect liu chen, but lin yuxuan and the others had been following him closely, making it impossible for him to escape. He could only accompany them to resist the monkeys.
"Xiao chen, I know you have a kind heart, but I still want to tell you one thing. I suspect that we have been schemed against. Ever since we entered the rainforest, we have been schemed against."
And the person who plotted against them obviously knew who it was.
Along the way, lin yuxuan had been leading the way for them. From the moment they entered, lin yuxuan had brought them an extraordinary path.
"Big brother, are you suspecting him?"
Liu chen was a little surprised. He didn't doubt anyone among them. After all, everyone had experienced life and death together, so it wasn't too much to say that they could share weal and woe together. However, now that he heard nie junao's analysis, he also felt that it made sense.
The dangers they encountered along the way seemed to have nothing to do with lin yuxuan.
Not to mention whether he was the one who led the way, he was very careful when they were chased by the man-eating ants. There were so many people, but lin yuxuan was the only one who was stained with blood and attracted the man-eating ants.
At that time, he thought it was just a coincidence, so he didn't think too much about it. But now, it seemed that it was more than just a coincidence.
Last night, there were so many people, and that monkey didn't even rob anyone's bag, so why did he rob him alone?
On the one hand, it might be said to be a coincidence, but if all the coincidences were linked together, it was not a coincidence. There were not so many coincidences in the world.
"Xiao chen, all of this is just a guess, but we can test it out first. People with evil intentions will naturally reveal themselves."
After all, they shouldn't act rashly before they were confirmed. Otherwise, if they wronged a good person, everyone would be embarrassed.
"I understand, but big brother, these snakes are very similar to those monkeys from last night."
Last night, those monkeys followed them all the time, but in the end, they forced them to the pit of heaven, as a live target for the little monkey.
"What do you mean?"
Nie junao and the others were brought to the tiankeng differently from liu chen and the others, so he didn't know how the monkeys brought liu chen and the others there.
"It's like this..."
Liu chen told nie junao about how those monkeys forced them to go to the heavenly pit last night.
Nie junao frowned after hearing liu chen's words. He really didn't expect those monkeys to be so intelligent.
If these snakes had the same purpose as them, they would encounter some dangers and might not be able to meet a snake king or something.
"Try it."
"Okay."
They decided to try a different direction to see if the snakes would attack them.
However, when they changed directions, lin yuxuan doubt: "Are we going the wrong way?" Why did he suddenly change direction?"
Liu chen was already suspicious of lin yuxuan, so he naturally wouldn't say anything to him and said plainly, "No, but it's safer here. Let's go."
Seeing that lin yuxuan still had the intention to speak, liu chen didn't give him the chance and turned around to walk in another direction. Seeing this, lin yuxuan could only follow him.
Liu chen had carefully observed lin yuxuan, so he also saw a flash of dissatisfaction on his face. It seemed that he was dissatisfied with his change of direction, which made him more and more certain that there was danger ahead.
Fortunately, they were worrying too much this time. Those snakes were only following them, but not the monkeys. They changed directions and the snakes followed them in another direction.
Seeing this, liu chen was much more relieved. As long as these snakes didn't attack them immediately, they would have enough time to find a way to drive them away.
However, once the snake problem was solved, they had a bigger problem waiting for them. That was lin yuxuan. No one knew what he wanted to do.
Liu chen even suspected that the ones who wanted liu yuqiang's life were not the kidnappers, but lin yuxuan. However, they didn't know what was going on between the two of them, so they couldn't do anything about it.
