Chapter 225: Want to blackmail?
The flow rate in the water area of the river bend accelerated, so Liu Yu and his crew's boat took a more stable approach, driving along the outside of the bend, which brought them closer to the mudflat.
Chen Jiahao controlled the propeller at the stern to increase the speed to counter the force of the river and avoid hitting the mudflat.
But when their boat was about to turn and leave the mudflat, Zhuang Moxing stared coldly at the several mud puddles on the mudflat.
Suddenly, one of the quagmires stirred, and a man suddenly jumped out from the rotten, smelly black mud. He shouted anxiously at Liu Yu and the others, "Don't go ahead! It's dangerous!"
A smile appeared on Liu Yu's lips. Finally, he couldn't hold it back anymore?
Long before they approached the mudflats, they noticed a lot of mixed auras there, most likely from humans.
Then Zhuang Moxing and Liu Yu exchanged glances and decided to wait and see what the people over there intended.
It would be even better if these people could bring them information about the internal situation of the Xilang Grand Canyon.
Liu Yu glanced at the black mudflats at that time, and saw circular quagmires full of living people hiding there, waiting for them to attack.
But what she didn't expect was that these hidden people would actually remind them that there was danger ahead.
As soon as the loud call to stop was heard, Liu Yu immediately asked Chen Jiahao to stop operating the propeller. As soon as the propeller stopped, the boat immediately followed the force of the river and approached the edge of the mudflat.
The black mud man who screamed in shock was stunned for a moment when he saw Liu Yu and the others really stop at the shore.
I didn't expect Liu Yu and the others to listen to advice so much.
His face was covered in black mud and his expression could not be seen, but his yellow eyes showed a hint of regret.
But he was only stiff for a moment, then he continued to speak without hesitation.
"You, you are the survivors who rushed down that waterfall, right? Since you all survived the waterfall, don't go any further. You can't handle the dangers ahead."
Liu Yu looked at the hunched black clay figure and, judging by his appearance and voice, he must be an old man. Hearing what he said, he asked, "What's the danger?"
The old man was about to explain in detail when a dozen more people suddenly jumped out from several nearby mud pits. The tallest of them, the clay figure, shouted, "Shut up, Old Zhang!"
As soon as he shouted loudly, a tall and thin figure beside him ran past him and came to the old man.
The tall and thin figure looked up and down at Liu Yu and the others with a pair of greedy eyes.
Seeing that most of them had rosy complexions and clean clothes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He immediately covered the old man's mouth and warned him sternly in his ear: "Grandpa, don't say anything! Let Brother Zheng handle it!"
The old man's mouth was covered and he couldn't make a sound. He struggled and whimpered twice. He caught a glimpse of the hidden warning in his grandson's eyes. His heart ached, and he immediately lowered his drooping eyelids and stopped struggling.
The man called Brother Zheng frowned when he saw Liu Yu and his group's boat. A human-powered boat?
It looked like a motorboat, how did it suddenly turn into a human-powered boat? Was he mistaken?
With a sneer of "pauper", Brother Zheng came to the conclusion.
It seems that these people don’t have any special abilities. Most of them are rich people who escaped from a small base nearby that was washed away by water.
They are dressed so cleanly, they probably have supplies on hand, we can make a fortune!
His expression immediately turned serious, and he curled his lips and said, "If you want to know more information, you have to exchange it for supplies. This information was obtained by us at the cost of our lives, so we can't let you take it for free."
Liu Yu exchanged glances with Zhuang Moxing. Seeing him nod slightly, he then looked at Brother Zheng and asked directly, "What do you want?"
Brother Zheng and the dozen or so black clay figures behind him looked delighted and were about to make conditions immediately. However, before they could say anything, they heard screams from behind!
"Ah, it's those squirrels! Brother Zheng, get out of the way! Go back to the cave!"
Liu Yu and the others happened to be standing in the direction facing the squirrels that suddenly appeared. They witnessed with their own eyes twenty or thirty large squirrels as long as their arms suddenly jumping onto the pine trees at the top of the canyon.
A group of squirrels stood firm and waved their paws continuously, throwing a lot of stones at their heads!
The place where Liu Yu and his crew's boat was docked was obviously within the attack range.
The red-haired squirrel in the lead had strong muscles and the stone it lifted was much bigger. If that big stone hit its head, it would at least take away half its life if not die.
Liu Yu instantly jumped out of the boat and leaped onto the land on the right.
“Get off the boat!”
The next moment, all members of the Spark Team jumped ashore nimbly to avoid the attack.
Liu Yu even had time to store the boat into the space, while those black mud people who wanted to blackmail him were all in chaos and fled in panic.
When Liu Yu dodged a fist-sized stone, he suddenly looked up at the red squirrel's scarlet eyes.
When the red squirrel met Liu Yu's eyes, it bared its sharp mouth at her, hissed fiercely, and revealed its sharp fangs.
The group of squirrels with saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths threw down stones all over the sky. Several black mud men were hit and fell to the ground with blood on their heads.
Liu Yu held up the space shield to block the stones, and quickly gestured to her teammates behind her to move forward. When she reached the attack range of the space blade, she instantly shot out a dense mass of space blades towards the top of the canyon.
