Chapter 24 Prisoner Escapes

Chapter 24 Prisoner·Escape

What?

Lao Du was startled. He stepped on the brake to stop the bus, then walked to Yu Liang and put his finger in front of his nose. He felt relieved when he felt his breath. He patted Yu Liang's face and tried to wake him up.

"Don't worry about me. I'm not dead. I'm just a little dizzy and weak." Yu Liang shook his head and turned his face to the window. "Excessive use of the blind stick will consume a lot of mental energy. I couldn't even hold the blind stick just now."

"That's it." Lao Du understood. He didn't expect the blind stick to have such a hidden attribute, but it was not a big surprise. So he said, "Then you should pull the rope like today and use the blind stick as little as possible."

He didn't care much. As long as Yu Liang didn't die for the time being, there would be no big problem.

The bus restarted and slowly drove towards the tourist center. They had a quick lunch at the convenience store, and they could eat some hot food in the cafeteria at night.

The dinner was simple. Lao Du had fast food, while Yu Liang had bread like breakfast. He had been eating bread for a day, with different flavors. He couldn't see the food, so it would be much more troublesome to eat, and Lao Du didn't like to waste too much time on eating.

Just like now, the two of them were waiting in the stairwell on the tenth floor, just waiting for the three women to come back.

1013, this is their room number. Lao Du had seen the registration form before, and he wrote down the general information, including them, the three women headed by "Ali".

It was 7:30 in the evening, and Lao Du and Yu Liang had been waiting for an hour, but they were not in a hurry. Lao Du naturally needed no more words. He was a hunter, and like the fisherman, it was a profession that required the most patience, while Yu Liang was silently recording the passage of time.

According to Lao Du, tourists usually return to the visitor center before eight o'clock, because most of the parks are closed at this time, and the night is the best place to breed strange stories. Only the visitor center full of light and popularity can give them a sense of security, even if this sense of security is also an illusion.

"Ding——" The elevator door at the end of the corridor opened, and three women dressed in enchanting clothes walked out one after another. They laughed and talked unscrupulously in the quiet corridor, while talking about today's harvest.

"Don't say it, the guy today is very poor, and there are only two "broken" words on his body. He pretends to be a master, but he is not as good as you, A Zi." The woman standing on the far left fiddled with her hair and complained.

A Zi smiled: "You picked it yourself, I didn't compete with you."

She looked at Sister Li in the middle and asked: "How is Sister Li's?"

"That man has a good appearance and figure. There are few who can satisfy me now, so I let him go." Sister Li smiled and licked her lips, as if she was savoring today's delicious food.

Yu Liang listened from a distance. He knew what these women were talking about. Lao Du told him about their business.

It was a service that came to the door on its own initiative. There were not many channels for venting in this zoo, so no man could refuse these three charming women.

But this is not a romantic encounter, but more of a hidden murderous intention. They will suddenly attack when men are relaxed, seize the characters, and even recycle the corpses to make "broken" characters or something else. So far, they have never failed.

Of course, they also have needs. Just like Sister Li said, if they meet a good man in all aspects, they will let him go very considerately and let him leave.

Obviously, they understand the survivor bias very well. These satisfied men will then brag about their experiences half-boastingly. These things will be secretly spread among the male tourist group, and the next time other male tourists will naturally relax their vigilance when these three women come to the door.

As for the group that disappeared, tourists disappear in the zoo every day, and no one cares about such trivial matters.

Relying on this trick, they have far more resources than ordinary tourists, and coupled with their ruthlessness, they have also gained a foothold in this world of weird stories.

Of course, they could hide it from others but not from Lao Du. After all, Lao Du could be regarded as a living fossil in the zoo's tourist community. He had witnessed their difficult entrepreneurial struggles with his own eyes. However, he did not like to be a good guy. He would ignore them as long as they were not provoked. After all, everyone in this zoo had their own way of survival.

Lao Du gently pushed Yu Liang, and Yu Liang immediately understood and leaned towards the darkness of the stairwell. Now was the critical moment of the ambush. Naturally, he would not reveal any flaws, but just tightly grasped the blind stick in his hand.

The door of the stairwell was ajar, and Lao Du hid in the shadows sideways. He came here to hunt today, so he did not carry a backpack, but only took a few weapons.

Dagger, long knife, crossbow, and a few arrows.

Ten steps, seven steps, five steps, three steps.

He counted the steps silently in his heart, and the muscles of his whole body were tense, waiting for the target to enter the attack range.

How long has it been?

How long has it been since I had a good fight?

He has always been cautious and almost never takes action, just like the big beasts in the forest, they will not attack other beasts of similar level, because in the jungle, a slight injury means starvation, and a serious injury means death.

Without sufficient benefits, he will not be driven and will not fight.

After the professional alienation, Lao Du has almost forgotten how much power he has, and only knows that there is no one in this zoo who can beat him in a head-on battle.

From the crack in the stairwell door, the shadow of the woman can be seen falling in front of the door. Lao Du took a deep breath, and his agile figure passed through the crack, rushing straight at Sister Li in the middle of the women like a cheetah. She was the most difficult guy among the three.

"What!" Sister Li was shocked to find that a dagger stabbed out from the shadows and pointed directly at her face. She subconsciously pulled the woman next to her to block in front of her, and retreated quickly.

The dagger slashed across the woman's smooth neck, cutting most of it in just one stroke. The blood sprayed on Lao Du's clothes, but he did not hesitate at all and quickly approached Sister Li who was running away.

The woman covered her injured neck, her mouth opened and closed, unable to speak, and the air she inhaled leaked from the broken trachea. At this time, she could only make a hoarse sound, like a crow. She could no longer control her body, and sat down against the wall dejectedly, casting the last resentful look at Sister Li.

Why!

The one you pulled to block the knife was not another one? !

"Da." A crisp sound came from the stairwell, but no one cared in this battle.

Sister Li felt very uncomfortable at this time. Lao Du's full attention was on her. A sense of oppression from being targeted by someone higher up in the food chain enveloped her body, making her panic involuntarily.

Characters, yes, characters!

What characters are useful?

Almost instantly, she thought of the "prisoner" character she had just obtained yesterday, which could imprison the target in place for three hours.

"Prisoner!" Sister Li locked her eyes on Lao Du's figure, and the characters on her forearm emerged, shooting straight at Lao Du like lightning.

However, Lao Du had already taken precautions, kicked the ground with his left foot, and dodged to the right.

In terms of experience in fighting with people with characters, he was by no means comparable to these people. As long as he could avoid the lock of eyes in a flash, he could avoid the characters. This was like dodging a bullet, requiring extremely strong reaction speed and predictive ability.

"Da." The sound of the blind stick rang again.

Before Lao Du noticed anything unusual, he felt a force coming from his waist, and his body moved to the left involuntarily.

If he was on the ground, this force would be far from enough to compete with him, but at this moment he happened to dodge to the right, and had no way to borrow force, so he could only watch the "prisoner" character sink into his body.

"Swish!" Chains quickly grew out of the ground, tightly wrapped around Lao Du's feet, making him unable to move.

"Hit!" Sister Li's face showed joy, and she quickly left Lao Du within five steps, and then she caught her breath, and her eyes turned to Lao Du's back, where there was a rope connected to the darkness of the stairwell on the side. It seemed that it was this rope that affected Lao Du just now, so that he couldn't dodge in time.

Hmm?

Lao Du glanced at the stairwell with his peripheral vision. He didn't understand what the point of Yu Liang's doing this was, because even if he was hit by the "prisoner" character, it would be easy for him to kill the two people in front of him.

Surrender to these two women?

Too stupid.

As for running...

As long as Yu Liang is still in this zoo, he will not lose the target, because his profession is a hunter.

While thinking, his mind moved slightly, and a green mark that only Lao Du could see floated out, entered the stairwell, and merged into Yu Liang's body.

"Da." Yu Liang tapped the blind stick again, and this time he saw Lao Du tied to the spot by the iron chain, unable to move.

There was no "Xiao" character to cancel it?

He was surprised, but he didn't have time to think about it. Since he didn't force Lao Du to use the "Xiao" character here, he could only speed up to the performance hall, so the blind stick kept tapping the ground. With the image of the stairs in his mind, he moved no slower than before he went blind.

The current situation is much better than he expected. The original plan was to let the crocodile staff take him to the performance hall, so he tried to call the front desk and remember the corresponding buttons, just for this moment.

The crocodile employee paid enough attention to him, so Yu Liang believed that it would definitely appear. Its goal has always been to feed him to the crocodile in the night show. If he stayed with Lao Du, it would be more anxious than him.

But now he doesn't need to do that, he can go by himself.

Strange creatures have their own thoughts and are not absolutely restricted by rules, especially this crocodile.

Recommending Lao Du to hunt Li Jie first has nothing to do with the so-called good and evil, it is simply because he knows that Li Jie has a "prisoner" character that can imprison the target for three hours.

And using the blind stick many times will not cause fainting. He noticed when Lao Du and Da Wu were fighting. Lao Du didn't care about having a hemp rope around his waist during the battle, so he performed the scene on the bus specifically for Lao Du to see, with the purpose of letting Lao Du keep the rope around his waist so that he could harm Lao Du a little at a critical moment.

Although now thinking about it, that performance was indeed a bit too much, but fortunately Lao Du didn't care about it.

Everything is going according to the best conditions. Thinking of this, Yu Liang's pace quickened again. The sound of the blind stick "da da da" echoed in the spiral staircase, and Yu Liang appeared in the lobby of the visitor center a few minutes later.

He pushed open the closed door, ignoring the curious questions of the few tourists in the lobby. He took a deep breath of the cool night wind and walked out of the visitor center alone.

Staying with Lao Du at ease is just a slow death. Only by using the night show ticket can you fight for a way out.

As long as you get the "moon", you can synthesize the "key" and leave. It is the key that symbolizes leaving the zoo!
