Chapter 611 Seeking Poison in the Wilderness (Part 7)
After leaving the marijuana hiding place, Feng Bujue immediately walked in the direction where Bubo left.
He didn't want to follow him, but just wanted to investigate Bubo's whereabouts before continuing to explore.
Not long after, he found a few tufts of crushed weeds, a few broken branches, and a few not-so-obvious footprints.
"Not simple..." Feng Bujue said as he looked at the traces, "He can even think of anti-tracking..."
It is obvious that Bubo deliberately created these "traces" to disturb a possible tracker.
"And the degree of completion of these disguises is quite high... If I hadn't observed carefully, even I might have been fooled by him..." Brother Jue thought to himself, "Well... If the NPCs in this script are as smart as him, I'm afraid I'm in trouble..."
Just as he was thinking, suddenly...
"Don't be fooled by the illusion in front of you." A man's voice sounded from not far behind Brother Jue, "He didn't move in the direction indicated by the footprints..."
"Who's there?" Feng Bujue heard the voice and his expression immediately tightened. As he turned his head to follow the sound, he clenched the military shovel in his hand.
At this moment, Jue Ge had lost his superhuman five senses, so he could not sense those who approached him quietly. This change made him, who had always been cautious, always feel a little uneasy... and this uneasiness made him very aggressive.
"Calm down, Stephen, it's me." The speaker immediately appeared in Jue Ge's sight. He was contestant No. 6 - Barack Hussein Ao Guanhai.
"I am very calm." Feng Bujue was indeed communicating with the other party in a very calm tone, "Raising the military shovel and pretending to chop you doesn't mean that I have lost my composure."
"Hehe..." Ao Guanhai smiled. He did not approach rashly, but kept a distance of three meters. He continued with a smile, "Is this the normal way you greet people?"
"Hmph..." Feng Bujue snorted, "When facing those 'guys with ulterior motives who sneak up on me from behind', I usually greet them like this."
After these words came out, Ao Guanhai's eyes changed instantly, but he quickly covered up the change in his expression with a raised eyebrow expression, and smiled: "Hehe... Sorry. Stephen, I didn't realize that I was 'sneaking' towards you." While he was speaking. He also raised his hands and made a quotation mark gesture, "At least from my point of view, I came over normally and kindly reminded you..."
"I don't know when you started to stare at me..." Feng Bujue interrupted, "But your 'reminder' shows that... when I was communicating with Bubo. You were already observing in secret."
Silence fell...
At this moment. The atmosphere between the two was very subtle. It seemed to be tense, but it also implied a turning point.
"Hmph..." After more than ten seconds, Ao Guanhai smiled again, "Stephen, I didn't make a mistake."
Feng Bujue stared at the other party and didn't respond. He knew that the former president hadn't finished speaking.
"Your talent is beyond doubt." Ao Guanhai continued, "Cooperate with me, Stephen. You won't regret it."
"Cooperation?" Brother Jue looked directly into the other party's eyes and repeated the key word.
"Yes. Cooperation." Ao Guanhai replied, "If it's you, you should understand..." He paused, "In this game, even if it's just mutual use...multiple people cooperating is far more advantageous than acting alone."
"Hehe...after all, they are playing politics, and this habit of loving to form gangs is probably deeply rooted in their bones..." Feng Bujue thought, "But...this kind of people do have their own strengths. Politicians are good at scheming, diplomacy, and performance...their scheming is better than Bubo."
"You mean...are you going to establish a mutually beneficial relationship with me temporarily?" Feng Bujue continued.
This kind of behavior of asking knowingly can make the other party say a few more words, and at the same time buy yourself more time to think.
"Haha... I've said, Stephen, I prefer to use the word 'cooperation'." Ao Guanhai's answer has the usual tactful style of a politician, "Just imagine, if you and I join forces, will the others still have a chance to win? In my opinion... it only takes fifty... no, forty-five hours! It only takes two days for us to eliminate all the other eight people."
"Eliminate?" Feng Bujue heard this and was suspicious, "What do you mean? What does he mean by 'eliminate'... Does it mean attacking other players and making them incapable of action? Or... is there any other way?"
Since the opening script introduction did not explain the complete rules of "Wild Poison", Feng Bujue was in a very unfavorable situation from the beginning. What made him depressed was that he couldn't ask anyone about this matter casually... because the NPCs in this script were all very intelligent. If Feng Bujue revealed that he "didn't know the complete rules", God knows what kind of calculations he would face.
"You sound so serious... but do you have any specific plans?" After a few seconds of mental struggle, Jue Ge thought of a tentative question that would not expose himself but allow him to continue asking.
"Of course." Ao Guanhai replied, "but I can't tell you right now."
"Why?" Feng Bujue asked again.
"Hahaha... Okay, Stephen." Ao Guanhai said with a smile, "Stop joking with a serious face." He raised his right hand and stretched out two fingers, "First of all, you won't fight with someone. To be with a fool who reveals his strategy without any guarantee; secondly, facing such a fool, the best way is to pretend to cooperate with him and then find an opportunity to kill him..."
He was right. In this case, those who are unwilling to reveal their plans are the smart ones worth cooperating with...
"Humph..." Feng Bujue also smiled, and then laughed, "Hehe... Hahaha..." He smiled like a mental patient, making it difficult for the other party to understand his thoughts.
After laughing for a few seconds, Brother Jue suddenly stopped, suddenly put on a serious expression and said, "It seems that you and I still have something in common."
This sentence is undoubtedly Feng Bujue's trick... He seemed to be saying: "My reaction just now was all to test you, just like your first words were also to test me."
"Well..." Ao Guanhai also looked solemn and loosened his collar (he had taken off his suit and tie and was wearing a shirt at this time), "So... you agree?"
"Fifty hours." Before the party who proposed cooperation had decided on the rules, Brother Jue said first, "Within fifty hours from now, I will stand on the same front with you..." He licked Licking his lips, "As for fifty hours later... regardless of whether we have successfully eliminated the other eight people as you said - our cooperative relationship will be terminated by then."
"No problem." Ao Guanhai nodded, "It's just what I want."
"Haha... very good, 'partner'." When Feng Bujue said the last two words, he used a slightly ironic tone, "I hope your execution ability is enough to keep up with your plan."
Hearing this, Ao Guanhai grinned, showing two rows of big white teeth: "Yes, we_can!" (To be continued...)
