Chapter 492: The Journey of Death

Along a wide, winding stream, the lush trees on both sides of the river are so green that they seem to drip water, completely covering an entire valley.

Ji Aojian and Carlos stood outside this dense jungle with heavy packages, and through the thick wet mist, they could faintly see that the forest was covered with all kinds of bright flowers and plants, insects, birds, snakes and beasts.

"It's a rainforest. The Spaniard looked at it for a long time and sighed, "How on earth can you do that?"

His companion crouched down on his knees, stuck his right hand in the dirt, and after a while said, "Actually, there can be a scientific explanation, and the geological structure of this valley is somewhat peculiar. ”

"How special?"

Ji Aojian replied succinctly, "Geothermal." ”

"I see. Carlos suddenly realized, "The owner here uses the heat of the ground to plant a large number of tropical plants in the valley, forming a local environment that is different from the local climate conditions. ”

"Not bad. To be able to create such an artificial rainforest, this master is very creative and financially excellent. ”

"I'm more interested in this master. Carlos said, "Are you still going to go in now?"

"Before they all came to the valley, how could they not enter the door?"

The two of them silently untied their backpacks and put on a thick canvas coat on their bodies, covering their hands and feet tightly. The only exposed face was also coated with layers of ointment to repel snakes and insects.

Carlos still carried his two-handed sword, which was as wide as a door, but the sword was an ordinary spear in his hand for self-defense.

Slowly walking into the suffocating green jungle, I clearly felt the steaming heat under my feet. The hot and humid air around you is no different from the scorching heat. Two guys in heavy protective suits, as if they were in a furnace.

Ji Aojian turned his head sideways and said. "If you go on like this, will you get heat stroke?"

I said. You don't look down on people. Hearing this kind of question, Carlos couldn't help but be annoyed, "In twenty-four hours, I won't sweat a little." ”

"That's good, that's good. Ji Aojian said reassuringly, "This valley is not particularly big, I want to see that master, I don't need to walk for a day and a night." ”

"It's not a difficult journey in the first place. ”

"And it seems that there is a more labor-saving way. Ji Aojian's right thumb pointed back. "There seems to be a means of transport ready on the stream. ”

Carlos looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, he saw a small wooden boat tied to a large tree by the stream.

"How's that? I think it's quick and effortless to go by boat. Ji Aojian said, "And your two-handed sword can be used for paddles." ”

"Don't you think this is an obvious trap?" said the Spaniard, ignoring the canoe, "and if we get on the boat and are in danger, we will not be able to escape." ”

"Oh. What are the dangers of sitting in a boat?"

"This is a rainforest, and there may be pythons in the water, or crocodiles, that suddenly come out and swallow you. You're a good meal. ”

Ji Aojian asked, "Even if we don't take the waterway, we may meet pythons and crocodiles, right?"

"At least on land. Whether it's running away or resisting, it's more convenient. Carlos refuted him. "And there's one of the most terrifying things underwater. That's a swarm of tropical piranhas, and if we gather around the boat, we won't be able to escape, even if we can fly. ”

Ji Aojian shuddered, "It makes sense, it seems that we really can't take a boat, let's walk honestly." ”

"In which direction are you walking?"

"Anyone needs water to live along this stream, so we can find what we want to see along the river. ”

As you walk along the waterway, you will encounter a variety of dangerous animals, including not only giant pythons that can swallow people in one bite, but also colorful blood-red frogs, giant spiders with tough webs, and even vampire bats with sharp fangs. For these terrible monsters that can kill people at any time, the two of them have no intention of teasing and confronting each other, and they all carefully avoid them.

Correspondingly, along the way, I also saw the humanoid skeleton of Bai Sensen from time to time.

Even the plants in the rainforest are fraught with risks, and hiding from deadly animals is often self-defeating. Among them was a shrub covered with barbs, with strong toxins on the barbed spines, and the more you struggled, the more you couldn't get out, and a few white bones were trapped here.

Ji Aojian suddenly stopped, looked at a skeleton under his feet and said, "There are no signs of biting on this person's body, how did he die?"

Carlos pointed to a few Tan-shaped objects in front of him, "See what this is?"

"It's like a big mushroom. ”

"With the slightest touch, this mushroom bursts open and spews out countless poisonous spores. Carlos spread his hands, "Of course the person who touches it is dead." ”

Ji Ao's heart palpitated, "It's really unguardable, it's the legendary place of witches in Miao Jiang, and it's probably not as terrible as here." ”

"Yes, it's not about how good you are, it's about how much you know about the rainforest. ”

Carlos naturally didn't know what Miao Jiang was, but he just sighed, "I want to visit that master, I don't know how many people have died on the road." ”

Ji Aojian shook his head, "These people are not here to visit the master. ”

Carlos wondered, "Why do you say that?"

"Since the master was a well-known figure in London's high society, if the guests who came to visit died in large numbers, it would have caused an uproar long ago. ”

"You have a point. Carlos also frowned, "There are so many dead people in this rainforest, why hasn't there been any movement?"

"Because these people are very special, they also came here for a secret purpose. Ji Ao Kendao, "So they died in vain when they died, and they couldn't be exposed." ”

"What secret identities do they have?"

"The Master's name is Mishnah. Ji Aojian asked rhetorically, "Do you know the origin of this name?"

"Mishna ...... Let me think. Carlos thought for a moment, then suddenly said in a little surprise. "Isn't that the core chapter of the Talmud? Could it be that this Tanshna is a Jew?"

The religion of the Jews is the precursor to Christianity, from which the Old Testament of the Bible is derived. And in Judaism. One of the most important texts after the Old Testament is the Talmud, which is a compilation of the Law. The whole "Talmud". It is an interpretation and debate around the six volumes of the Tanshna. Thus this Mishna is the most important of the Jewish scriptures.

"Yes, who but the Jews would use Mishna as their name?"

"But the name of Mishna would not be used by ordinary Jews, right? ”

"Well, probably their prophet. ”

"The Jews believe that there was a prophet in their time?" Carlos shrugged, "is it comparable to Moses waving the Red Sea?"

"I don't know if it's like Moses, but it's certain that he was very influential among the Jews. "Ji Ao Kendo. "Do you remember what Ambassador Ren said? She said that as long as someone asks for the master, the stock will definitely sell well. This shows that this master must have the ability to manipulate the stock market. ”

"It's definitely impossible for a master to use superpowers to control the stock market. Carlos snorted, "But those Jews have almost monopolized the financial circle." If Mishnah was a prophet of the Jews, it would be a matter of one word to influence the stock market. ”

Ji Aojian nodded, "So." This so-called issuance of shares to seek the master is actually to convey benefits to the master, and the Jews will help. ”

"Yes, the Master must be a financial broker. Carlos's thinking was also clear. "It should be to get a high percentage of the original shares first, and then provide support in the securities market. ”

"Now that you've analyzed the identity of the master, you should know why so many people have died here. Ji Aojian smiled slightly. "The bones we saw were all hard. The joints are tight, and they are specially trained. ”

Carlos said with a calm face. "They are on a secret mission, and they are here to assassinate Mi Shanna, so they can't expose their actions if they miss. ”

"Europe has persecuted Jews for thousands of years. Ji Aojian sighed and said, "It's rare that they have another prophet, and they will suffer waves of assassinations." ”

"What's so sympathetic about that?" said Carlos indignantly, "the Jews are not good, greedy, selfish, miserly, specializing in speculation and usury. ”

"I almost forgot, you're a Spaniard, you're a Catholic, no wonder you're so disgusted with Jews. ”

Ji Aojian then asked, "Now that you know that Mishna is a Jew, are you still planning to visit?"

"Now that I'm a Jew, I've lost all interest. Carlos said in an amused tone, "And I'm not here to assassinate, so why bother to come to the door?"

"If you don't want to go on, let's break up here. ”

"That's the best, anyway, the speculation of that canal stock, you just have to trade with the Jews. ”

Ji Aojian nodded, and was about to say goodbye to him, when he suddenly heard a strange voice in his ears, and his face couldn't help but change greatly, "Carlos, listen to this voice, something is wrong." ”

The Spaniard suddenly became nervous, and his voice trembled a little, "According to the information we prepared, this seems to be the voice of an army of man-eating ants. ”

"What is the most correct way to deal with man-eating ants?"

"We should immediately jump into the river, sink our whole body, and breathe through a reed tube......"

Ji Aojian glared fiercely, "Didn't you say before that there are the most terrible piranhas in the river, could it be that we take the initiative to deliver food in the water?"

"Ahh Carlos was unsure of his mind and said in disbelief, "The piranhas don't have to be in this section of the river, so we might as well go down to the water for a while?"

"It's too late, they're already here. Ji Aojian said sadly, "Brother, hold your breath immediately and stop your heartbeat." Hopefully, these ointments you've made will work. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"The only way to save our lives now is to make these man-eating ants think that we are not alive, but just a tree. Ji Aojian's voice was no longer angry, "From now on, we will live and die to see our respective turtle breath skills." ”

A mighty brown wave swept in, and the bodies of the two people were covered by thousands of fierce ants in an instant, like two statues made of a large number of ants. (To be continued......)
