The Devil Comes to America

Chapter 5 Similar
The team quickly completed the crossing of the river. Although the guide said they had to set off immediately, he still gave everyone five minutes to rest.

Five minutes later, the team set out again. After crossing mountains and hills for several hours, a group of people took a temporary rest beside a stream.

The rest time is to eat, after all, hiking in such a place is very tiring.

Xiunuo prepared some compressed biscuits, but as soon as he took them out, Zhang Wenxuan pushed them back: "We are all brothers, you look down on us, don't you? Why are you eating biscuits? I have some self-heating rice here."

"Thanks."

"Old Zhao, let's go get some water."

The two of them walked to the river, and Xiunuo and Linzi stayed where they were.

The advantage of having company is that you can choose a nice place to sit.

Those lone travelers were squeezed into a corner when they were resting, and they were very cautious when taking things out of their backpacks, as if they were afraid of losing money.

During the lunch break, everyone started to make a fire and tried their best to dry the clothes that had just been wet.

Lin Zi came close to Xiu Nuo and whispered, "Brother Nuo, you have really fucked a snake before."

Xiu Nuo's mouth twitched and he glanced at him: "Female snake, I'm not interested in men."

After saying this, Xiunuo found that Lin Zi was completely relaxed.

Who does this skinny little monkey think he is?
Lin looked to be only about 1.6 meters tall, with a thin and small figure, very different from Zhang Wenxuan.

"Are you and Lao Zhang working together?" Xiu Nuo was collecting information in a casual tone.

"Ah? Yes." Linzi nodded, and then said, "But we didn't come together from China. I came from China, and Brother Zhang seemed to be from Vietnam. When we were chatting on the road, we found out that we were from the same hometown, so we became a team."

"What about Lao Zhao?"

"Lao Zhao was not with us. We met at the dock of Necoli. When we arrived at Pito and were about to enter the rain forest, Brother Zhang took me to find Lao Zhao, saying that we should form a team so that he could take care of us. Lao Zhao saw the two of us and heard from Brother Zhang that he had relatives in the United States, so he agreed to go with us."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Xiunuo looked towards the river and saw Zhang Wenxuan and Zhao Hong walking towards them.

This Zhang Wenxuan is something.

When he was alone, he first found the skinny guy Linzi. When this little guy is out, he will definitely not refuse other people's initiative to show goodwill.

What's the use of two people getting together without talking, but how does the saying go? I don't need to be the strongest, I just need to be stronger than my teammates.

After you have teammates, even if one of them is not very strong, there are still two of you. At this time, you can find another guy who looks intimidating, draw a pie in the sky to get him to join, and a small group is formed.

After the three-person group was formed, they were considered safe within the team. This was not to say that the three of them were very powerful, but that there was a group of people in the team who were easier to bully and rob, and their number was quite large.

Finally, by recruiting this warm-hearted 'good guy' like me, you can start to expand the team. Next, you should be able to use yourself to attract the opposite sex, right?
No matter how you look at it, Zhang Wenxuan seems to be a typical example of those righteous monks who help each other.

However, Xiunuo had a feeling, how to put it.

He could smell a similar scent from Zhang Wenxuan.

interesting.

Zhang Wenxuan and Zhao Hong had already returned with water, and then took out four boxes of self-heating rice from their backpacks, poured water into them and began to heat them, while saying, "We should be at the temporary camp in the evening. There are boats over there, and we will need to travel along the river on those broken boats for at least one night. I guess we won't have much time to eat, so let's have a good meal now."

"We have mineral water." Lin Zi took his portion and asked in confusion, "Brother Zhang, why did you have to get some river water?"

"You only have one bottle left, right?" Zhang Wenxuan explained patiently, "We've almost used up all the supplies on the way to the rainforest. The boats are full of people, and they don't sell supplies. Now that the bottled water is gone, we can only drink river water. With our stomachs, if we are unlucky and get infected, we will be abandoned. The local hospital charges can empty your wallet." "Not to mention the cities behind Panama. Although they are not as dangerous as the rainforest, the dangers in those countries are not much worse than the rainforest."

"You will have no money by then? If you have no money, you will have to leave your life behind."

Xiu Nuo was listening to this and asked, "Isn't this your first time walking this route?"

"How is that possible? Who wants to go through this shabby place a second time?" After Zhang Wenxuan finished speaking, he leaned forward and whispered, "Before I came here, I spent a lot of money to buy an insider guide, which describes all the hidden pitfalls here."

Xiunuo's voice suddenly became playful: "There should be more content in your strategy guide than this, right?"

After saying this, the expression on Zhang Wenxuan's face became serious.

"There are indeed some, such as the temporary camp. Once we get there, it means the rest of the journey will be much safer. But again, I know all about this, right? And the location of the temporary camp remains unchanged."

Xiu Ma looked at the white mist rising from the lid of the self-heating rice and said casually, "You mean, this is the last chance for the drug dealers who robbed us."

"That's right." Zhang Wenxuan nodded: "So, do you want to be safer when the time comes?"

"Who wouldn't want to do this?" Lin Zi asked quickly, "What should we do, Brother Zhang?"

Zhang Wenxuan looked helpless: "I can't do anything about this, but Xiunuo has a way."

"Ah?" Zhao Hong looked at Xiu Nuo: "What do you have in mind?"

"Women." After just a few words, Xiu Nuo understood what Zhang Wenxuan meant: "As long as we have women here, we can use women to 'block the disaster' and we will be safe. At least, we don't have to be shot like I was last time. After all, the more chaotic the place, the closer the attributes of women are to commodities."

"But you still have to pay." Zhang Wenxuan looked at Xiu Nuo: "I can pay for you. Or, if you are lucky enough, no one will notice you."

"Since I saved people twice, it would be easier to use my name to invite people to join us, right?"

"That's right." Zhang Wenxuan said: "But it depends on your opinion. After all, this is..."

"No problem." Xiu Nuo agreed readily: "It's all for survival."

"That's fine!" Zhang Wenxuan stood up with the self-heating rice in his hand and looked at them confidently: "Then leave the rest to me, you guys eat first."

After a while, the three saw Zhang Wenxuan coming back with two women.

Both of them looked quite ordinary, and even looked a little ugly due to exhaustion from the rainforest trek over the past few days.

"Let me introduce you to these two, our new members, Linlin and Xiaorui. You need to help each other on the road ahead." After saying this, Zhang Wenxuan looked at the two girls and said, "Let me introduce them to you."

The two women listened to Zhang Wenxuan's introduction, but tried to stay close to Xiu Nuo. It was obvious that they were the reason why they joined this small group.

Xiu Nuo looked at Zhang Wenxuan who was talking eloquently and was already certain in his heart.

They are indeed the same kind.

This harmless and approachable appearance is so similar to when I was experiencing the world!

But underneath the disguise of human skin lies a man-eating beast.

Xiu Nuo reached out and patted Zhang Wenxuan's shoulder, and a ray of evil spirit had silently penetrated into his body.

We should always be on guard against others, right?
