At this time, the three people's faces turned iron-green, especially Yamamoto, whose mouth corners twitched violently and gritted his teeth, saying to the two of them: "Let's go!"
But just as they were about to take a step, another problem arose. It seemed that no one was going to help them cross the river now. The old boss smiled and walked up to the dog's face, saying: "Excuse me, sir, would you mind helping us cross the river?"
The dog's face turned away and said: "No time! Swim over by yourself."
The boss's eyes twitched, and he immediately pulled out a stack of money from his pocket, saying: "Boss, calm down, we can't swim anyway. Besides, this river is so wide that he can't swim across it either. You see, if you send us over, this money will be yours."
The dog looked at the money in his hand and said, "I'm short of money, but I also have my own dignity. I won't make this dirty money! Still that sentence, swim by yourself."
The boss's hand trembled with rage, wanting to erupt on the spot. As a renowned research genius, although not formally educated, he had never been treated this way before. These villagers were too stubborn, if they didn't send someone to ferry him across the river, he really wouldn't have any means to do so.
It seems that I can only temporarily put aside my pride and ask him for more. Thinking of this, the boss had to swallow his anger again, and his expression was even uglier than eating a dead mouse.
All they could do was speak kindly and hope that the dog would take pity on them and ferry them across, but the dog just gave them a disdainful look.
Just then, a loud humming noise suddenly came from the river, and everyone looked towards the river, only to see a speedboat rushing quickly in this direction.
A speedboat quickly came ashore. Four people got off from above, one wearing a suit and tie, exuding an aura of sharpness, while the other three wore white windbreakers, looking somewhat like gangsters, but they gave me a strange feeling that I couldn't quite put into words.
When they saw the people on this side, the four of them walked quickly over and suddenly saw Yamamoto and others, among whom the three wearing white clothes were all stunned.
A middle-aged man in white clothes said, "So it's Mr. Yamamoto and Mr. Iizumi, when did you arrive in our country? You didn't even notify me, let me entertain you!"
After seeing the newcomer, Yamamoto and Iizumi were also stunned, and then replied: "It's Dr. Jin's subordinates, you're too polite, we just came over to play, so we don't want to disturb you."
"Haha, traveling and having fun, you all are really enjoying yourselves!" The man continued to say with a fake smile.
Although I don't know what these people do, I can absolutely tell that they seem to know Yamamoto and must have had some dealings with him. On the surface, they're all smiling, but anyone can see that it's just an act.
The man in the suit seemed uninterested in what was going on between them, and as soon as he landed, his eyes scanned everywhere. When he saw me next to the bushes, his gaze suddenly froze, and he said to the three people beside him: "That snake is over there!"
When the three men in suits heard this, they stopped paying attention to Yamamoto and the others. They turned their heads and looked at me together. When I met their gaze, my heart skipped a beat. The gazes of these three people were too scary.
But for some reason, I didn't sense any aura of vitality from them, yet the chill in their gaze made my nerves tense up suddenly.
These three people are absolutely not to be trifled with, thinking of this, I no longer stayed, turned around and rushed into the grass thicket, now I also understood that they were also here to catch me.
"What the heck have I done now? Why are there more people coming to catch me? Can't be bothered with that, I dash into the bushes and start running frantically forward."
Those few people saw me running away, didn't rush, looked at each other, smiled and said: "This little guy's speed is still okay, if we take it back and let the doctor cultivate it again, in the future its gene extraction should be helpful to us!"
Another man in white nodded and said, "Alright, let's go after him!"
Just as they were talking, I had already slipped away for forty or fifty meters, but suddenly, a gust of wind sounded from behind me, and a chill ran through my body.
I was shocked in my heart and didn't dare to look back, but I knew those guys had caught up. My god, how could these guys be so fast? Are they still human? I always thought my speed was proud, but now I know that there are people outside of people.
Just as I was indulging in wild thoughts, I suddenly felt a sharp pain on my back and my body was suspended in mid-air. I turned my head to look, and indeed it was a man in white clothes who had grabbed me with his hand.
I didn't even think about it, I turned my head and bit down on his hand, but the next moment I regretted it. I don't know why, when I bit this guy's arm, it was like biting iron, and a sharp pain suddenly spread through my mouth, I don't know if my teeth cracked.
Just as I was surprised, the guy who grabbed me said: "Hehe, this little guy is quite cute, it wants to bite me, huh, looks like a very spiritual look, I think I'll take it back, Dr. Jin will definitely be satisfied!"
Another person nodded and said: "Yeah, it's okay, let's go back!"
They finished speaking, and without regard for my feelings, they directly pulled out a black bag and threw me into it. I wanted to struggle out of the bag, but it was made of some unknown material that looked very thin, yet couldn't be bitten through.
At this time, my heart has already surged with huge waves. What kind of people are they, or should I say, they're not human? How can their speed be so fast? And also, how can their hands be so hard? You say that if one practices martial arts, trains their qi and blood to the strongest, then it's like what people see in iron palm kung fu, where nothing can penetrate.
But these few people obviously didn't have any fluctuations in their vital energy, it's impossible for them to be practitioners' disciples. If they weren't practitioners' disciples, then how could their arms possibly be so hard? You know that with my one bite, even if it was a Tibetan Mastiff, I would have bitten its leg off, these people really make me feel astonished.
Now that I've been caught by them, I don't know where they're going to take me. From what they said earlier about Dr. Jin, I hope they won't take me away for dissection and research again.
If that's the case, I'm really done for. In their hands, I couldn't even muster up the thought of escaping, and they could easily catch me with just a wave of their hand. Only now do I realize how weak my abilities are; all those previous times were just small-time stuff.
After they finished packing me up, several of them were about to leave, but at this time the dog also reacted and came over. It turned out that these guys had come to catch this snake too! Damn it! This is not going well.
So they immediately mobilized the villagers, who in turn blocked their way. Seeing the villagers blocking their way, several of them were stunned and didn't understand what was going on.
At this time, the dog barked: "What kind of people are you? Why did you run here to catch snakes with these two devils? Let us go quickly, otherwise you won't be able to leave."
As soon as they heard the dog's words, the four of them also reacted and realized that these people on the mountain were also here to catch this snake. No wonder it was so coincidental, this snake would be here too, and they hadn't succeeded in catching it for half a day, probably because they were blocked by these villagers.
At this time, the man in the suit walked over and said to the dog: "Hello, we are from the troops. This time, we didn't come to catch the snake, but to protect it."
The man in the suit finished speaking and pulled out a document from his pocket to show to the dog. The dog looked at it, nodded seemingly understanding, and said: "Oh, so you're a soldier? But are you really going to protect this snake?"
The man in the suit nodded patiently and tried to sound gentle: "Not bad, I believe you also saw this snake, isn't it very spiritual? Since it's spiritual, it's a protected animal in our country. Today we received an order from above, heard that someone was catching it here, so we came immediately."
Damn it, I heard this guy's words in the bag, and I couldn't help but rush out to bite him to death. This lie is so ridiculous that even a three-year-old wouldn't believe it.
But what makes me want to cry is that the dog really believed it, he immediately grasped the hand of the man in the suit and said: "Ah, our countrymen are indeed good, comrade, after you go back, please take good care of it, this snake is really very spiritual! It even saved my life."
