Evolution from the crocodile
Chapter 44 Hidden merit and fame
As a crocodile, Lu Chen kills every day. But he did this more to fill his stomach and survive.
Survival is above all else.
The law of the jungle of nature itself is natural selection, survival of the fittest.
But... Lu Chen has a human soul after all, and he also has his own moral values. Even some of the rules of conduct in his previous life were still adhered to deep in his heart.
Something to do and something not to do.
In Lu Chen's opinion, these are very important.
If you don't even have the most basic rules of conduct...then your life will only be about killing, and you will be no different from an ordinary crocodile.
In other words, it's really just a beast.
So he was willing to do something if he could.
Of course, Lu Chen has no plans to expose himself to the world in the short term... It would be foolish to do so. At least until he becomes powerful enough, Lu Chen will remain hidden behind the scenes and not have too much contact with humans.
After making up his mind, Lu Chen stared at the direction in which the drone disappeared.
He hurriedly swallowed a few pieces of flesh and blood, buried the remaining remains at the bottom of the river, and then quickly swam upstream.
Ten minutes later, Lu Chen smelled more human scent coming from the jungle on the shore, which was also mixed with the smell of dogs.
In order to verify what he thought, Lu Chen quietly climbed up a big tree on the shore.
A few hundred meters away, I saw the search team.
They probably didn't know the exact location of the two hiding humans, and they were heading in the opposite direction.
This will only lead you in the wrong direction, going further and further away, and eventually you will miss it completely.
I need to find a way to remind these people... After thinking about it for a while, Lu Chen came up with an idea.
***
Old Li, we have led a team into the mountain to search for three days. We have not found any valuable clues so far. Do you think the two targets have escaped to other places? During the march, a human asked.
It's hard to say, the target is probably still hiding nearby... There are too many difficulties in non-regional search, coupled with the heavy rain in the past few days, almost all the target's scent and traces have disappeared. In addition, there are many interference factors in the mountains , the search dogs are greatly restricted. The leading captain shook his head and replied.
In fact, he had a similar judgment in his mind, but he just didn't want to say it out loud and damage the team's morale.
Woo! At this time, the search dog behaved abnormally again and let out a low roar in a certain direction.
Encountered a large beast again? Seeing this, a team member asked.
He is not a trainer, but through these few days of contact, he has a basic understanding of some of the behaviors of hunting dogs.
Whenever this guy finds something abnormal nearby, he will immediately notify the trainer around him. Generally, when they make a warning posture, it means that a large beast is coming.
Maybe, Xiao Liu, let's fly the drone again. Just in case, the captain gave the order.
The drone rose and flew quickly through the jungle.
Just like the previous times, the real-time images returned showed that everything was normal.
Eh...what is that?!
The operator's eyes widened and he couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
What's wrong? A team member hurriedly came to the screen and immediately exclaimed: This is a red arrow. Captain, look, there is something new!
After hearing the news, the leading captain walked over quickly and was also stunned.
On the screen of the control terminal, a picture of the empty area of the valley more than a hundred meters ahead was clearly displayed. There was a bluestone the size of a millstone in the middle, and a huge red arrow on the flat top of the stone pointed accurately in a certain direction.
This arrow is obviously not naturally formed...it is definitely man-made.
Deep in the mountains and old forests, there are few people.
In the current situation, an unexpected and mysterious arrow pointed at them, which made them think of many things.
Lower the altitude and pay attention to your surroundings, the captain said again.
The drone slowly landed four or five meters above the ground, and the arrow on the top of the stone became clearer. Through the high-definition camera, they were even able to identify that it was made of flint flowers.
The flint flower is a subtropical wild plant that is very common in mountain forests. Its flowering period is usually in summer and autumn, and its color is bright red.
Except for the big red arrow on the stone, nothing unusual was found around it.
In short, it’s very unexpected and weird!
It was like they were being targeted by some mysterious person.
Let's take a closer look, everyone, be careful. Finally, the team leader led the team to explore near the arrow mark.
Everyone was on alert, carefully walking through the bushes, and finally came to the big rock.
As seen on the drone console screen, the arrow mark is very conspicuous, and no obvious traces of human activity or any other abnormalities are found around it.
As for some beast tracks on the surrounding grass, they are automatically ignored.
The flint flowers were just put up. Someone is secretly observing us? The team leader immediately woke up.
It's already past midsummer, but the temperature in the mountains still remains above 25 degrees.
The sun was shining brightly above our heads, but the flowers on the stones looked fresh and not wilted, indicating that the scene here was arranged for no more than an hour at most.
Xiao Liu, fly the drone high to control the scene and closely observe the situation within a kilometer radius. I want to see who is staring at us.
In the opinion of the leading captain, since the other party attracted them here, there must be some purpose. Maybe even still watching from the dark.
The results were the same as before, and no abnormalities were seen.
Instead, the hunting dog sniffed near the flowers and ran in the direction pointed by the arrow.
Follow me, the leader called to everyone in a hurry.
The whole team followed the hunting dog and walked in a large circle until they came to a river.
Because of the river obstruction, the scent disappears here, and the hunting dogs can only run in circles.
Fortunately, after the drone was released, they quickly found another red arrow mark in an open area on the other side.
Find a shallow place and cross the river.
The leading captain was a little annoyed, feeling as if he was being led by the nose. It is still unknown who is behind this. But now that we have arrived at the river, we naturally cannot give up halfway.
No matter who is hiding behind the scenes, we must find him out.
Just a few dozen meters away, the search dog suddenly barked at a dead leaf.
Everyone, be careful, it's a trap... the trainer said urgently.
Then everyone discovered that the trap had been triggered long ago and there was no prey inside.
Judging from the traces, the trap was set up not too long ago.
This is deep in the protected area, and the nearest mountain village is more than a hundred miles away. Who else could be secretly setting a trap?
Even if it's not the target, there's probably an issue with the identity.
After passing two more traps, the hunting dog suddenly barked in front of him, his voice extremely urgent.
There is a situation...the target may be nearby, everyone, be careful!!
The trainer suddenly shouted excitedly.
As an excellent trainer, he has full understanding and trust of the hunting dogs he trains, and can even obtain different information from the differences in barks.
Amid everyone's alertness, the search dog growled at a certain ground, scratching and pulling with its paws.
Judging from the traces of soil, it was obvious that something was buried underneath.
Just as the team leader was about to let people dig, he heard the team member in charge of guarding say urgently: Who is it, stop...
…
With a burst of rapid gunfire, the two people hiding in the cave were successfully captured.
After repeatedly confirming that this was the mission target, all the team members had big question marks on their heads.
Who on earth left two mysterious arrow marks?
It is no exaggeration to say that it was almost the other party who led them to discover their target.
When the gunfire rang out, Lu Chen already knew that the two people had no chance of escaping.
He picked up the buried wild boar flesh and blood and swam downstream along the river, hiding his merits and fame.
