Chapter 199: Dangers
The crocodile opened its bloody mouth, its sharp teeth flashing with cold light, as if it wanted to tear everything apart and devour it.
It stared with scarlet eyes and pounced towards Ling Yao and Xing Huo.
Ling Yao quickly bent down and picked up Xing Huo, then lightly stood on tiptoes, leaped up like a flying swallow, and landed steadily above the crocodile's head.
This sudden change made the crocodile instantly fall into rage. It desperately shook its huge body, trying to throw Ling Yao off its head, but Ling Yao seemed to be stuck on it and didn't move at all.
The crocodile was extremely angry and suddenly drilled into the swamp.
Ling Yao moved her mind, and the next moment she appeared in the space, and the crocodile followed into the space.
Seeing the unfamiliar environment around it, the crocodile was confused. It looked around with a trace of panic in its eyes. What the hell is this place? Why isn't it a swamp?
Xinghuo came down from Ling Yao's arms and pounced on the crocodile. Outside, it couldn't beat the crocodile because of the environmental restrictions, but it was different in the space. This was its territory, and it was a piece of cake to control the crocodile.
Seeing the crocodile being tortured by Xinghuo and howling and running around, Ling Yao smiled faintly and flashed out of the space. Now she just wanted to find Qingyun as soon as possible to make sure if he was okay.
At the same time, the snake that was confronting Lu Qingyun could no longer bear the anger of being provoked, and suddenly bared its fangs, biting towards Lu Qingyun like an arrow from a bow.
Lu Qingyun had already controlled all of this. He stretched out his hand like lightning and accurately grasped the snake's vital point.
The moment he caught the snake, Lu Qingyun squeezed his palm with force, and the snake immediately let out a miserable scream. It twisted its body and struggled desperately, but it could not escape Lu Qingyun's iron grip.
After a while, the venomous snake paralyzed and completely lost its life.
Lu Qingyun casually threw the dead snake under the tree and began to pick the ripe wild fruits on the tree.
At this moment, the night gradually fell, and the whole rain forest was shrouded in endless darkness. It was pitch black all around, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. Occasionally, there would be bursts of creepy roars of beasts from afar, making the forest even more gloomy and terrifying.
After picking enough wild fruits, Lu Qingyun jumped down from the tree and distributed the wild fruits to his companions to fill their stomachs.
Then, he found some dry branches and leaves, skillfully lit a bonfire, cut open the belly of the big snake he had just killed with a dagger, cleaned it up, and slowly roasted it over the fire.
Ling Yao saw a few sparks of fire in the distance, quickened his pace, and walked towards the fire.
Beside the fire, several men were roasting a wild rabbit. They had been on the run these days, and the team of more than ten people was now reduced to five people.
"Damn, those cops are really haunting us, I'm going to fight them tomorrow." One of the men fiercely stabbed the dagger in his hand into the ground. They thought that after they finished the transaction, they could make a lot of money and live a life of luxury from then on. Unexpectedly, they were discovered by the border police just after the transaction and before they got the money. They were chased and had no way to escape. They could only hide in the rain forest and lost several brothers because of it.
"Second brother, don't be impulsive. They have weapons in their hands. It's no use for us to confront them. Let's think of a solution after we get out of this forest."
"Who?!"
Hearing the footsteps, several people looked at the source of the sound, their eyes full of murderous intent.
Seeing that it was a woman, they were stunned for a moment, and then a lewd and evil smile appeared at the corner of their mouths. I didn't expect to meet such a beautiful woman in this rainforest.
Ling Yao saw that it was not Lu Qingyun and the others, turned around and left, but was surrounded by several people who caught up with him.
"Beauty, since you are here, come and play with us brothers." They haven't touched a woman for a long time.
Ling Yao glanced at the people with a light look in her eyes, and a smile appeared on her lips. "Okay!" No need to guess, these people should be the drug dealers that Qingyun and the others are looking for.
They didn't expect Ling Yao to agree so readily, and they were a little surprised, but soon their desires made them forget everything, and they rushed towards Ling Yao with laughter.
Ling Yao stood still, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, exuding contempt and cold-bloodedness.
The next moment, those people suddenly felt their bodies go limp, and then they fell to the ground one after another. They wanted to get up, but they didn't have any strength at all.
"What's going on?"
"What did you do to us?" Several people stared at Ling Yao angrily, their hearts filled with panic.
Now they realized that something was wrong. This is a rain forest. Even the men could hardly move, but a woman appeared here, and her clothes were clean and tidy, without even a wrinkle, which formed a sharp contrast with their ferociousness. Could she be a monster in the rain forest?
The more they thought about it, the more scared they became. They regretted that they had offended the other party.
Ling Yao swept past several people. She had just given some drugs. Her drugs were colorless and odorless, and dissipated in the air. As long as you smelled them, you would lose your strength instantly.
"Are you a human or a demon..."
Ling Yao did not answer, but took out a rope from the space and tied several people to the tree trunks.
After making sure that they could not escape, Ling Yao walked in another direction.
In the space, Xinghuo tortured the crocodile to death, and then he left the space with satisfaction and continued to lead Ling Yao.
Ling Yao took a flashlight, shone the road ahead, followed Xinghuo, and marked the way along the way.
The road at night was rugged and uneven, full of potholes and bumps of various sizes, making it particularly difficult to walk.
Ling Yao took careful steps, but no matter how careful she was, she still tripped over a stone. She quickly steadied herself and looked down, her eyes falling on the stone that almost made her fall.
The moment her eyes met the stone, a cool breeze suddenly surged into her eyes, and it seemed as if the whole world became refreshing and pleasant.
Ling Yao was surprised. How could this stone give her such a wonderful feeling? Could it be that there was some secret hidden in it?
With full of doubts, Ling Yao closed her eyes, then opened them again and stared at the stone again. The next moment, she widened her eyes in astonishment. The stone in front of her was no longer ordinary, but a piece of jadeite.
Ling Yao was full of joy. She didn't expect that she could pick up jadeite on this remote road.
She put the stone into the space and continued to move forward.
In the following journey, luck seemed to favor Ling Yao. She found several rough stones one after another, each of which was large in size and contained high-quality jadeite. Two of them were extremely rare imperial green glass.
Ling Yao sighed in her heart and finally understood why so many jade merchants risked their lives to come to Myanmar to participate in stone gambling many years later. These rough stones were the key to the door of wealth.
Seeing the faint firelight flashing in front of her, Ling Yao was delighted. After collecting the sparks into space, she quickened her pace and walked quickly towards the direction of the flashing firelight.
