Chapter 67 - landing of the Barbarians
The man was carried on the shoulders of two barbarians, while the rest of the people around him were jumping around. They raised their long spears and shouted loudly as they walked towards the middle of the forest.
Chang Yuan, who was in the dark, frowned. “What are these barbarians going to do?”
“Let’s go, let’s follow them!”
As he said that, Chang Yuan bent down and followed the footsteps of the Barbarians halfway up the mountain.
However, Ah Feng, who was behind him, pulled Chang Yuan back.
Ah Feng pointed at the three sailboats on the beach. His expression was very excited. “Steal the boats and we can leave this place!”
Chang Yuan knew what Ah Feng meant.
With the boats, they could leave this deserted island and return to the mainland.
However, the most important thing that Ah Feng did not consider was where they were now.
Even if they had a boat, they did not know the geographical position. Drifting on the sea for no reason was simply not feasible. They would starve to death on the sea in a few days.
Even if they were fully prepared and prepared enough food, it would not work. The risk factor was too high.
The three small sailboats looked weak and fragile.
The weather above the sea was like a woman’s temper. She would change her attitude as soon as she said it.
If they encountered a storm or a tsunami at night, it would not be worth it. They might even lose their lives because of it.
Chang Yuan calmly analyzed to ah feng, “The plane crash allowed us to survive by luck, so we can’t do anything that we are not confident in. We must have full confidence in surviving before we can take action!”
Ah Feng was still a little puzzled. Wouldn’t they be able to leave once they had a boat?
“Think about your girlfriend who’s waiting for you at home to get married! Don’t be anxious, the more anxious you are, the worse it will be! Calm down!”
Chang Yuan tried to persuade him again.
Ah Feng had also thought it through. Since he was already stranded on a deserted island, God had given him some face. He had escaped death time and time again, so he was no longer in a hurry.
He would first follow the barbarians to see the situation before making a conclusion.
With that, the two followed the footsteps of the barbarians in front of them.
It was midnight. Although the forest was usually dark at night, the Moon Today was exceptionally round. The moonlight shone on the forest, and one could vaguely see the outlines of the surrounding objects.
One could see that the barbarians were familiar with the way through the forest, so they were not afraid at all.
Moreover, when they walked, the snake tree cave was in front of them. Chang Yuan was still looking forward to the scene where the group of barbarians would meet the snake king at the Snake Tree Cave.
However, just as they walked nearby, one of the yellow-faced and Thin Barbarians jumped out and chirped to his companions, “Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff!”
The group of people also responded, “Smash! Smash! Smash!”
When the conversation ended, the other party actually went around the snake tree hole in an orderly manner. They continued to walk forward.
Chang Yuan and Ah Feng looked at each other and became more certain in their hearts.
This group of barbarians must have come here often. Otherwise, how could they even know about the snake tree hole.
However, after walking for a while, they would reach Wang Xiaoqiang’s camp. If these barbarians met Wang Xiaoqiang’s camp, there would be a good show.
Chang Yuan and Ah Feng were ready to watch a good show.
However, the group of barbarians suddenly changed their direction and walked towards the Island Lake.
S
They followed closely behind the Barbarians and soon arrived near the island lake.
They had seen this place before. They looked down from the cliff. At that time, they only thought that the island lake looked very beautiful. They did not take a closer look.
When he walked in and took a look, Chang Yuan was almost stunned.
The periphery of the island lake was covered in fog. It looked like a fairyland. However, in fact, under the fog, there were countless skeletons.
Not only were there animals, but there were also human skulls.
“This…”
When Ah Feng saw the human skulls, he could not help but cry out involuntarily. Fortunately, Chang Yuan stopped him in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Even so, the man tied up by the barbarian in front seemed to have heard Chang Yuan’s movements and looked in his direction frantically.
Although his mouth was stuffed with a stinky sock or something, it looked like he was shouting for help.
Ah Feng looked at Chang Yuan’s expression. Seeing that Chang Yuan did not take any action and did not want to save the kidnapped man, Ah Feng could not move rashly.
If his position was exposed and he was not saved, it would be bad for Chang Yuan.
He was just secretly observing everything in the dark
The Savage came to Island Lake and placed the kidnapped man by the lake.
“Hu hu!”
“Smash Smash!”
He communicated with his companions for a while, but he did not know what to say. He did not understand anything.
He only saw that these people were half-kneeling by the side of Island Lake, facing the surface of the lake. They took off the decorations on their bodies one by one, and then stared at the surface of island lake with pious expressions.
One of the leading barbarians kept muttering, “Hu hu! Smash Smash Smash!”
The barbarians behind them also chanted together. Their voices were like the sound of Buddhist music that lingered in the forest.
Chang Yuan frowned.
Ah Feng, on the other hand, explained, “This seems to be the sound of a sacrifice. It’s like the tribe is summoning an evil god!”
“Sacrificial ritual? The tribe is summoning an evil god? How do you know about these things?”
Ah Feng scratched his head and said rather embarrassedly, “I’m actually from Xiangxi. As you know, in Huaxia, Xiangxi has always been famous for chasing corpses and jumping corpses. I’m a child born and raised in Xiangxi. There are similar sacrificial rituals in the villages and towns before the festival!”
“I learned some of these things at that time, but they are all fake. They are all used to deceive people. I don’t believe that these things can really summon anything evil!”
Ah Feng said with some self-mockery.
Chang Yuan was stunned.
As a technical nerd, he did not believe in metaphysics at all. Nine years of compulsory education and scientific exploration made Chang Yuan not believe in metaphysics at all. Chang Yuan believed that everything could be explained by science.
If it could not be explained, then science must not have developed to that stage yet.
However, just as Ah Feng and Chang Yuan did not believe that these people’s sacrificial chant would summon something evil, the ground suddenly shook violently.
This was an island on the sea. An earthquake on an island meant…
Chang Yuan’s eyes were wide open. He hurriedly grabbed onto the tree trunk beside him, trying his best not to let his body sway with the shaking.
The savages in front of him could not help but fall to the ground due to the vibrations. However, these savages tried their best not to fall. Even if they fell, they would have to kneel on the ground again.
