Chapter 1238 Return to Zuimo Island (Twenty-Three)

Let’s talk about Snow…

More than ten minutes ago, as soon as he left the open space, he quickly returned along the route he had taken before, and soon he arrived at the big pit that was blown out by the explosion array.

There, he successfully intercepted Garlic, who led dozens of reinforcements.

According to the plan, Snow’s task was to trick this group of people back to the ship and tell them that “the captain has ordered that you no longer need to follow.”

In order to achieve this goal, or to make this lie sound more real, Snow had already thought of a rhetoric.

However, Garlic was not a fool, and his style of doing things was always known for his caution and alertness; facing the one-sided words of Snow, an “outsider”, Garlic certainly would not easily believe it, so he asked Snow to lead the way and take them to verify the so-called “Captain and his men have eliminated the enemy’s main force and ordered you to withdraw” before making a decision.

So, with a rather apprehensive mood, Snow led the Garlic trio and the dozens of reinforcements they had brought to the open space together...

…………

About ten minutes later...

"Look, I didn't lie to you, did I?" Snow said this with a helpless expression.

In fact, when he saw that the open space in front of him was empty, he was also relieved; however, his acting skills were relatively reliable, and he would not let the other party see his inner changes.

"Well..." Garlic looked at the dragon corpses, dragon bones, and the traces left after the battle, and replied after a pause, "Okay... It seems that what you said is true."

Even Garlic was fooled, and his two loyal partners Godfrey and Madi... naturally could not see any flaws in the whole thing; as for the other sailors, they were basically combatants, who mainly took action and rarely thought about problems; they would not ask what the captain and the cadres were doing.

"So..." After thinking for a few seconds, Garlic looked at Snow again and asked, "What about you? Will you go on the ship with us?"

"No, I'm just responsible for passing the message to you, I have to follow." Snow replied.

"Oh?" Garlic was suspicious after all, he read again, "The captain didn't let us go, but allowed you guys... um... allies..." He didn't know that Blackbeard had fallen out with Brother Jue, so he didn't dare to be too rash in his attitude, "... go together?"

"Is there anything wrong?" Snow continued, "Since you are so worried, why not chase with me... and ask your captain in person?"

Although he was lying, his attitude sounded fearless, more real than the real thing.

Sure enough, Garlic was scared when he heard it: "Uh... No, no, forget it."

Not to mention a character like Garlic, even the cadres on the ship didn't dare to question the captain's orders casually, "disobeying orders" was a forbidden area that could never be touched.

At this moment, Garlic basically believed that the order "The captain doesn't let you follow" was true. If he still insisted on following, then... with Blackbeard's capricious and ruthless temperament, he might kill Garlic if he was unhappy.

"Really..." Snow continued to maintain his calm appearance and shrugged, "Then... let's say goodbye here."

His implication was that you can take the gang back.

"Well..." Garlic was indeed ready to leave at this moment, but he seemed to have a vague sense of something strange, so he was still hesitating and asked tentatively, "Mr. Snow... I don't know... how are you going to catch up with the captain and the others?" As he said, he turned his head and glanced at one side of the open space, "Still follow that group of 'marks'?"

This sentence, this look... is a trap.

An extremely dangerous trap that can instantly expose Snow's lies.

Garlic is a veteran after all, very cunning. In fact, there was no mark at all in the direction he pointed with his eyes; the real mark... Garlic had already seen it, and it was not in that direction.

These marks can only be recognized by sailors above the level of small leaders of their Blackbeard Pirates; because Blackbeard had said before that he would leave marks to guide the reinforcements to follow, so Mr. Voger had been drawing along the way, and he did not stop even after he separated from the players... Anyway, the players could not recognize those marks and could not see where they were pointing.

At this moment, Garlic's question was a test...

If Snow looked at the direction where there was clearly no mark and answered: "Yes, I am going to follow that mark to catch up." That means... no one has ever taught him how to recognize the mark, and everything he said before was a lie. He just wanted to trick Garlic into taking the reinforcements back to the ship.

And if Snow did not fall for this trick, he would have to explain how he was going to catch up with Blackbeard and his group who had left for a long time. If he could not explain it clearly... it would also be suspicious.

"Hey! Why are you still here?"

Just as Suantou asked the trap question and Snow was about to respond, another voice suddenly rang out.

"Does it take so long to tell you a message?" Feng Bujue said as he walked out from behind the tree where the real mark was.

"Tsk..." Snow's reaction was also quick, and he immediately replied in an impatient tone, "Didn't you see it yourself? He was worried and thought I was lying, so he came with me to take a look."

"What the hell?" Feng Bujue was not as gentlemanly as Snow. He glared and spoke in a hooligan tone, walked quickly towards Suan Tou, and shouted loudly, "It's your fault! You don't think so. Who are you? Your captain is waiting for us to arrive for the next step... He got impatient five minutes ago and asked me to come back as quickly as possible to see what's going on. ...It turns out that you are procrastinating here and want to die, right?" When he said this, he actually took out the knife, "Otherwise, I will just chop off your head and explain it to your captain. Bar."

After listening to these lines and watching the battle, Suan Toou broke into a cold sweat.

"Damn... what am I thinking... The other party is Feng Bujue, the man who wiped out the Crazy Eyes Pirates with one strike... The captain has already decided to form an alliance with him, why should I? Death doubts his companions..."

After cursing himself secretly in his heart, Suantou quickly changed his expression and gave in: "Hug... I'm sorry! We will withdraw now! I won't disturb you all!"

After that, he turned around and walked away as if running for his life. As he trotted, he gestured to the sailors, telling them to stop talking nonsense and leave quickly.

Just like that, dozens of people huffed and puffed back into the forest, retracing their steps.

"It's so dangerous..." After the group of people had gone far away, Feng Bujue looked at Snow, smiled and said, "Ha... If I hadn't been careful and waited for you here, you kid Eighty percent of it is here."

"Hmph..." Snow also smiled, "I'm not as naive as you think. When Suan Tou said 'mark', I had already guessed what he wanted to do... I wouldn't fall for that kind of trap. If you don't show up, I'll just tell you that I don't know the mark, but I will catch up with you through some kind of "contact method between us travelers from other worlds". As for the specific method... I can't tell you. Come on, he won’t have anything to say.”

"Okay, okay, I'm going to waste my time." Feng Bujue put the knife back into its sheath and said, "Oh, by the way, let me introduce you...this is 'Ken'."

When Brother Jue said this, his eyes were looking behind Snow.

Snow was also stunned, and instinctively responded: "Who?" and turned his head following the other person's gaze.

As a result, as soon as his face turned ninety degrees, he jumped blindly.

"Wow!" Snow really jumped a step and looked at "Ken" and said, "When did you stand behind me?"

Chi Tie ignored him, just tilted his head, looked at Brother Jue with a smile and said, "Is this kid's level achieved by finding someone to train him with?"

"Ah, it's obvious..." Feng Bujue responded noncommittally.

"Wait a minute...level?" Snow looked at the rather slender-looking NPC in front of him in surprise, thought quickly for a few seconds, and then asked, "Are you...a derivative?"

"I see..." Hematie's expression changed slightly, "My mind works very quickly."

"As for his identity, I will explain to you later on the road." Feng Bujue said, "Now...since the reinforcements have been deceived by our tactics, the next step is to find Honghu first and then..."

scold--

At this moment, Brother Jue's words were interrupted by a burst of wind.

Along with the sound, a white shadow sprang out from the forest behind him, and slowed down as it approached him, until it dodged and fell in front of him.

"Haah...haah..." Honghu lay on the ground, looking at the three people standing around him, gasping a few times, and then said intermittently, "Haah...I...ha Ah...my hands...arms..."

"See~ We are not blind." Feng Bujue raised his voice, slowly squatted down beside Honghu, and quickly took out the Linzhibaozhu [Qixu Rulin] from his bag, and launched it at Honghu. Item special effects, "But you are also very capable. After a while, the forearms of both arms were blown away."

The special effect of the orb is to "instantly heal the target's injuries (cooling time is twenty-four hours; only for trauma healing and limb repair; it cannot relieve diseases, curses, poisoning and other debuffs)", so Honghu's severed hands can be healed with a It grew back "in an instant" at an incredible speed.

"I'm not in the mood to joke with you..." Honghu was not polite to Brother Jue. After his wounds healed and he regained the ability to retrieve objects, he immediately took out a bottle of survival value supplement from his bag and drank it. After drinking, he said again, "In order for Blackbeard to fall into the trap, these hands must be handed over..." (To be continued.)
