Chapter 611: Poison seeking in the wilderness (6)
Translator: 549690339
“This pair of underwear … Is indeed very suspicious …” Feng bujue was the first to look at the lower half of the body.”Is this the last piece of cloth that the creator left for the dead, or is it a container that hides some kind of clue …” He touched his chin.”If there is really a clue, then is it designed to test the participants ‘moral bottom line … Or their tolerance for disgusting things …”
As brother Jue was thinking, he had already moved forward and squatted down …
However, when he was about to reach out to pull off the pants of the corpse, he found that … He could not reach out.
“Eh?” Feng bujue was stunned. He tried again, but it still did not work.
“Oh …” Two seconds later, he relaxed and said,”the system stopped me, right …”!!
His guess was correct … The system defined his attempt as an objective sense of obscenity, making it impossible to put it into action.
“Very good,” he said. Brother Jue laughed.”That’s the same as announcing that there are no clues here.”
From a certain perspective, brother Jue should be glad. If there was no such thing as a system, he would have to “personally” check it to confirm this.
“So … The clue is the handcuff …” Feng bujue’s eyes moved to the wrist of the corpse.”Let me take a look …” He grabbed the Zombie’s hand and raised it to his eyes for a closer look. After a few seconds of careful observation, he read again,””There’s nothing special about it …”
Then, brother Jue let go of the dead body’s hand and turned it over.
He wanted to see if there was anything else hidden under the body, but there were only a few pieces of rotten meat and a large number of maggots.
“Ah-ha!” Feng bujue’s eyes glowed when he saw the bugs, as if his appetite had been whetted.
The next second, brother Jue turned around and ran to a Bush not far away.
He stared at the grass as if he was looking at the menu in a restaurant …
Dozens of seconds later, brother Jue bent down to grab a handful of grass and returned to the body.””Not bad … Green sorcerer grass rolls meat maggots, vitamin C, and protein.” As he mumbled, he grabbed a handful of maggots and squeezed them into the grass.
Then, as if he was eating a salad, he opened his mouth and took a big bite, chewing it with a crunch.
“Hmm…Not bad.” After swallowing a mouthful, brother Jue mumbled to himself,”at least it’s better than a certain sandwich I had before.”
Just as he was savouring his masterpiece with relish …
“Ah!” A cry of alarm came from behind.
This time, it was no doubt a human’s shout.
Feng bujue’s expression changed, and he instantly adjusted his posture to stand up. He picked up the military shovel and prepared to fight.
But … It turned out that he didn’t need to be so nervous. Because the person who made the sound was still about ten meters away from him.
“You … Are you eating the flesh of the dead?” It turned out that the person who had shouted was the other contestant, Justin. Not perky.
A few seconds ago, Bubo, who was passing by, happened to catch a glimpse of brother Jue’s back. So, he decided to quietly approach and see what was going on … And when he saw Stephen, he thought,” When Mr. Carbon squatted beside a corpse and made a clear chewing sound, he was naturally shocked.
“So, it’s you …” Feng bujue finally saw the person clearly and knew that it was a false alarm.”What did you say? Eating people to death? Ha! “How is that possible …” He raised his left hand and showed off the grass worm on his hand, then replied,”it’s weeds and worms.”
“Phew … God …” Bu Bo heaved a long sigh of relief, and the expression on his face relaxed a lot.”You scared me to death, Mr. Carbon.”
After confirming that brother Jue was not a man-eating monster, bu Bo walked over unhurriedly.
“But …” Bu Bo quickly walked in front of brother Jue and said,”you can eat anything you want. There’s no need to squat down next to a dead body, right?”
“The bug is right next to the body. I don’t think it’s necessary to change the location.” Feng bujue replied nonchalantly. At the same time, he stuffed another mouthful of his ‘self-made scroll’ into his mouth.
“This … Hmm …” Bu Bo had been too far away earlier, so he had not seen it clearly. It was only now that he realized what brother Jue was holding was a live maggot wrapped in weeds.
“Sigh … Young people these days.” Feng bujue used a disdainful gaze to look at Fu Shu, who was still vomiting, and said in a serious tone,”you vomited at the sight of a few bugs. You’re so useless.”
After bu Bo vomited, he felt a little better. He immediately stood up and replied,””Of course I won’t vomit when I see a bug! But it’s different when you see a person eating live maggots!”
“Oh, Justin …” Feng bujue was still eating, and he seemed to be enjoying it. “Young man … You have to understand that if you want to survive in the wilderness, you have to get used to this kind of thing …” He smacked his lips and spat out some food residue.”When you let go of the prejudice of the city people, you will realize … That there is delicious food everywhere.”
“Are you sure this is considered a delicacy …” Bu Bo covered his nose and replied with a look of disgust.
“Relatively speaking, the taste of maggots is already very good among insects, and it has a high protein content.” Like a teacher giving a lecture to his students, brother Jue continued,”it’s sweet with a hint of astringency, and with the sourness of the wood sorcerer that’s close to lemon, it’s undoubtedly a fresh delicacy.”
“Wuh, wuh, wuh, wuh.” After listening to this description, bu Bo vomited again.
Feng bujue was still going on and on.””As for the taste, the maggots that eat rotten meat are fatter than those that eat shit, and the meat quality is …”
“Alright! That’s enough!” Bu Bo interrupted brother Jue with a face full of fear.”Mr. Carbon, I understand what you mean … Please stop.”
“Fine …” Feng bujue shrugged noncommittally. After finishing the last bite, he tilted his head to point at the dead body behind him and changed the topic.”What do you think?”
“What do you mean …” Bu Bo was stunned for a moment.”That’s a corpse. What else can we see?”
“Haha …” Feng bujue laughed coldly at his reaction. He lowered his head to play with the shovel in his hand before asking,”by the way, what was the hint that you received?”
“Uh …” His perky expression suddenly changed. He hesitated for a while before he replied,”I don’t think I can give that to you, Mr. Carbon.”
“Well, I can understand.” Brother Jue nodded.”After all, this is a highly competitive show. It’s not good to give your own exclusive information to your competitors.”
When bu Bo heard this, he was obviously stunned.”Hmm … You’re right.” He replied woodenly.
“In any case …” Feng bujue turned back to look at the dead body.”I want to study this body a little more …” He squatted back down beside the dead body.”Why don’t … You stand there and wait for me?”
“Uh … Mr. Carbon.” Bu Bo looked at brother Jue’s back and hesitated for a few seconds.”Actually, I’m just passing by … And I just came to say hi. I think I should go.”
“Oh, goodbye.” Feng bujue waved his hand without turning back.”Good luck.”
“Goodbye, Mr. Carbon.” Bu Bo glanced at brother Jue one last time with a strange look before turning around and leaving.
After his footsteps faded into the distance, Feng bujue’s lips … Curled into a cold smile.
“This kid … Is quite alert …” Brother Jue stood up and looked in the direction that the man had left.”Too bad … He’s still not my match.”
At first glance, what had happened in the past few minutes was not shocking, but in fact … There were turbulent undercurrents.
First of all, he saw Justin. In that split second, brother Jue realized … That the man had just smoked weed.
Even though he only took a small amount, his slightly trembling hands and slightly dazed eyes could not be hidden.
Based on that, Feng bujue speculated that … Bu Bo had found at least one cannabis hideout, and he probably had not finished all the stock. In other words … The other party was still carrying some marijuana.
Therefore, brother Jue had the idea of an ambush.
When brother Jue said ‘so it’s you’, he had already constructed every step of the plan in his mind. How to trick the other party over, how to make the other party lower their guard, how to knock the other party unconscious, how to break the other party’s legs, and so on …
However, when the Bubo reached brother Jue, brother Jue gave up on the plan. This was because he realized that … The other party also wanted to attack him.
As long as one observed calmly, one would be able to discover…That the seemingly relaxed man was actually more alert than others. From the beginning to the end, he had maintained a certain distance from brother Jue, and his right hand had been placed on the outer side of his lower back. Obviously, there was a weapon hidden behind his back, most likely a knife or something … Ready to attack at any time.
Then, the two of them had a chat. Both sides had good acting skills. One was chewing on grass and talking nonsense, making it difficult to grasp; The other one pretended to be helpless and even retched twice to hide his true intention of keeping a distance from the other person.
Not long after, it was Feng bujue who started the attack. He used “what do you think” to test her.
Bu Bo continued to play dumb.
Feng bujue laughed coldly and raised his shovel again. With this expression and action, he was trying to tell the man,””I’ve seen through you. If you want to make a move, I’m prepared. ”
Then, brother Jue asked,’what is the hint you received?’ to make something clear.”I know that you’ve found the weed.”
…………
At this point, he had to explain why this question was able to express the meaning of the last sentence.
It was like this … While he was discussing the taste of the maggots with bujue, Feng bujue was also thinking about the body behind him.
It was in those few seconds that he understood the meaning of his hint …
In fact, the clue on the male corpse was the handcuffs. Of course, there was nothing special about the handcuffs, and Feng bujue had already confirmed that. The handcuffs ‘real function was symbolic … They symbolized the “arrested person”.
This clue, combined with the first hint that brother Jue received,’you have the right to remain silent’, pointed to where the cannabis was hidden in the body’s mouth.
After coming to this point, Feng bujue’s deduction had not ended. He made a bold assumption and came up with several other possible conclusions.
“One, there is a marijuana hiding spot near the starting point of each contestant.
2. The hiding place must be about one kilometer away from the contestant’s starting position.
Third, although this location was relatively easy to find, the cannabis was very well hidden.
Four, the first “hint” pointed to the cannabis in the hiding spot closest to the players.
Even though he could not be one hundred percent sure, Feng bujue believed that the probability of these four settings being true was very high.
Objectively speaking, the festival Group could use this arrangement to allow the players to quickly get used to the game and get some cannabis to relieve their withdrawal symptoms for a long time.
If these four settings were not valid, it was very likely that the ten contestants would be addicted to drugs soon after the start of the game and fall to the ground, unable to get up. For a reality show, this kind of opening was too ugly …
That was the link between the “hint” and the marijuana hiding place.
…………
Then, following the previous words, let’s look at bu Bo’s reaction …
After being threatened by Feng bujue, the man’s expression changed. He hesitated for a moment before giving a rejection.
Please take note that bu Bo said,”I don’t think I can give that to you”, not “I don’t think I can tell you that.”
So … On the surface, he sounded like he was saying “hint,” but he was actually referring to “marijuana.”
Without a doubt, the two of them were already in a state of mutual hostility.
In this situation, brother Jue gave a meaningful reply.”After all, this is a competitive show. It’s not good to give your ‘exclusive’ information to your opponent.”
This sentence was basically announcing his final bottom line.
Bu Bo naturally understood the meaning of those words, and he could only reply with an “you’re right”, indicating a compromise.
Their conversation came to an end. Feng bujue went with the flow and returned to the body (where he hid the weed). He squatted down and asked,””Why don’t you … Wait for me there for a while?”
What he meant was …”How long do you plan to stay here before you leave?”
When bu Bo heard this, he tactfully accepted the guest’s request and left after a few casual words.
All in all, this … Was the real Feng bujue and Justin. If he didn’t dig into the truth of the few minutes of conversation …
“Ah … The NPCs in this scenario … Are so powerful …” Feng bujue mumbled as he used his hands to pry open the dead body’s mouth.”Earlier, Bell had already demonstrated his amazing physical abilities, but now, this Justin … He is a zombie.” ‘Bubo, he’s actually so scheming … He found the weed faster than I did; After he found it, he didn’t use it in large quantities because of his drug addiction. He only used the minimum trick that could alleviate the symptoms. Then, he deduced the ‘four points’ that I thought of and stopped moving into the island. He changed to a circular route and wanted to Rob the Original hiding spots of other people’s cannabis … With such wisdom, even players would be … F * ck!”
His thoughts were once again interrupted by the stench. This time, it was the gas that came out of the corpse’s mouth.
“F * ck …” Feng bujue could not help but curse under his breath because the stench had taken away four percent of his Life Points.
What was even more outrageous was that after he pried open the corpse’s mouth with great difficulty, he found that … The upper and lower jaw were sewn together by many wires, and the gap between the two rows of teeth could only be separated by a finger’s width.
It seemed like … The festival Group was afraid that the dead bodies would open their mouths on their own or that their mouths would be bitten open by wild beasts, so they had the foresight to come up with such a solution.
“Tsk … You’re so unprofessional. If you want to suture, you should just do it perfectly! Why did you leave a gap to let the stench out!” Feng bujue grumbled unhappily. He picked up the military shovel and adjusted its structure. (The WJQ 308 military shovel could be modified to a certain extent to achieve different effects) he tried to use the ‘pliers’ function of the military shovel to snap the wires.
However … The progress was not very smooth, because the wire that was stuck between his teeth was not easy to clamp …
Therefore, brother Jue, who had taken in too much stinky smell, was annoyed and switched to the ‘hammer’ function of a military shovel. He smashed two rows of teeth from the body and used a more violent method to get the cannabis from the body’s mouth.
[Name: cannabis *2]
[Type: consumable]
[Rarity: normal]
[Function: when used individually, it can suppress withdrawal symptoms for a certain period of time. When used multiple times, it can obtain a random buff.]
“Able to bring out of the scenario: no
[Remark: if you don’t want to become an idiot like RANDY, it’s best not to touch it.]
The two cannabis cigarettes were kept in a small plastic bag, and the outer layer was covered with a layer of wax, so they were well preserved.
Other than that, Feng bujue also found something else in that layer of wax.
Item name: handcuffs key
[Type: Tool]
[Rarity: normal]
Function: unlock handcuffs
“Able to bring out of the scenario: no
[Remark: what? Which pair of handcuffs can it open? Which other painting could it be? Man, are you a Virgo?]
“Excellent.” Feng bujue immediately used the key to unlock the handcuffs on the body.”This might be of great use …”
Item name: handcuffs
[Type: Tool]
[Rarity: normal]
[Function: do as you see fit]
“Able to bring out of the scenario: no
[Remark: since you’ve seen the item description, it means you’ve already gotten the key.]
“Okay … The problem now is …” Brother Jue stuffed the items into his pocket and stood up to say,”who should I go to to borrow a fire from?”
He also knew that if it really didn’t work, he could just eat the weed directly, but his “withdrawal symptoms” happened to be in a relatively weak period, so he didn’t use it in a hurry.
“Let’s walk for a while more …” Feng bujue took a deep breath and decided to leave this place first to prevent another player with the same mentality as bu Bo from appearing.
However, what he didn’t know was that at this very moment, a pair of eyes … Had already locked onto him from the dark.
His and Bubo’s every move earlier had all fallen into “that person ‘s” eyes. (To be continued.)
