Chapter 450 Local Routine
"Adams, why are you here? Are you a member of this tribe?"
Looking at the Maasai man in red cloth and braided hair, Xia Xu asked in surprise.
Then he immediately realized the language barrier between the two sides, and immediately signaled the accompanying guide to translate.
"I belong to this tribe, but I'm not in this village. I just came here this time to find the elders..."
During the translation of the accompanying guide, the two communicated fairly smoothly.
And under the terrifying memory ability brought by the super brain potion, some simple Masai language was also quickly mastered by Xia Xu during the communication, and soon reached the level enough for preliminary communication.
During the chat, he also learned about some recent experiences of Adams.
Although they are both members of the protagonist group in the "Hunter" plot, Adams and Grant are fundamentally different.
Adams did not have a deep hatred for werewolves like Grant and the others. The reason why he joined the hunter team was actually mainly due to Grant's employment.
Perhaps now it seems that ordinary werewolves are not even a small threat to Xia Xu and the others, but compared to ordinary people, werewolves' physical fitness and instinctive close combat ability are absolutely crushing.
At the beginning, Grant was also aware of his own shortcomings in melee combat, so he hired Adams, an incomparably tough Maasai warrior, through certain channels, and gradually forged a deep friendship in the desperate battles.
As for why we met Adams here, we have to start from two aspects.
One is Grant's hunter team. Since Xia Xu and Uncle Luo intervene forcefully in the plot of "Hunter", the villain werewolf forces in the whole plot can be said to have been taken over in advance.
With this battle, plus their previous hunting, the group of 'wild' werewolves who first returned to society have become extremely rare. Coupled with the interruption of the original plot, they naturally lost many business opportunities.
In this way, the hunter team has entered the holiday stage of going their separate ways. Except for Grant, who tirelessly tracked the Cyborg werewolf back to Xiaguo, everyone else basically had their own lives.
The same is true for Adams. According to the tradition of the Maasai people, he has reached the age to be promoted to a senior warrior. This time he also rushed back to perform some traditional ceremonies.
"So how did the ceremony go? Is it over?"
Xia Xu asked with piercing eyes.
This is not because he is so interested in the Maasai tradition, but after habitually looking at Adams' attribute panel, he saw a brand new but very familiar entry.
[Name]: Adams
【Life level】: 1
[Fate Potential]: [Supporting role: "Hunter"]; [Supporting role: "Angayi: Origin"]
[Talent Potential]: Weapon Fighting (4 stars)
[Special]: Eye of Marseille (1 star)
[obsession]: none
【Favorite】: 72
Angayi: Origin!
Adams actually has the same plot entry as Vannis!
And before that, he was also a member of the protagonist team of "Hunter", which means that he actually played a supporting role in two plots at the same time.
Good guy, is the business so busy? Even rushing to the show, do you really think you are making a movie?
Xia Xu, who encountered this situation for the first time, was so shocked that he couldn't help complaining secretly.
But thinking about it, it’s not impossible. When making a movie, there are cameos and characters in common, let alone this is reality.
It is obviously not surprising that a person's life experience is so long that it runs through multiple events and multiple identities. More legendary cases than this abound.
Adams is definitely one of the best fighters among the Maasai people. It would be strange not to participate in a plot like "Angayi: Origin" that is obviously dominated by Masai elements.
However, to Xia Xu's disappointment, Adams is only one of the supporting roles in the plot, and the plot has not yet started, so the plot summary cannot be obtained from the property panel.
I thought it might be related to Adams's promotion ceremony this time and wanted to inquire about it, but the result was that everything was calm, and it was already the last link to find the elders to braid their hair.
He really had no idea, so he could only put the matter on hold as originally planned, and the topic with Adams also changed to chatting and reminiscing about the past.
During the chat, he was also invited by Adams to his home in another Maasai village.
The Maasai tribe can be said to be very primitive and impoverished, but this poverty sometimes depends on the perspective.
As a nomadic people, most Maasai people have a lot of cattle and sheep in their homes, so this is like Tibetan herdsmen. It seems ordinary, but in fact, the cattle and sheep in the family are not too small based on the city price conversion. .
Adams seems to belong to this kind of hidden local tyrant in the local area. The high dollar earned from Grant can be said to have amazing purchasing power in exchange for local cattle and sheep.
So don't look at the same small fence house made of mud and cow dung. Adams's wife married four or five, and raised hundreds of cattle and sheep, especially the former, which made Xia Xu envious.
The hospitality was hard to come by, and Xia Xu, who had stayed at Adams for most of the day, was stayed for dinner again.
The staple food of the Maasai people, or the local black people, seems to be a kind of paste cooked from flour. It is boiled into a paste texture and paired with some pureed beans. It is not afraid of being hot, so it is kneaded into small balls and eaten.
But of course they wouldn't use this kind of thing to entertain Xia Xu. Adams arrogantly called his wives to kill cattle and sheep, and directly came to a primitive barbecue feast.
After some kindness, the sky was already overcast by the time I set foot on the way home.
Declining Adams' offer to escort, Xia Xu led his two security teams back to the urban area without incident.
It's a pity that this smooth journey and the good mood of renewing old friends disappeared in an instant when they returned to the Xinghai Security Station.
"My lord, please, please save Vannis, my poor child, woo woo woo..."
As soon as he entered the villa area, Xia Xu saw a kneeling black woman crying, and Yang Bowen and He Qing with ugly faces.
"What's the matter? What happened to Vannis?"
Xia Xu, who vaguely heard these words at the door, frowned slightly, and walked quickly into the hall.
"boss."
Hearing Xia Xu's voice, Yang Bowen and He Qing obviously breathed a sigh of relief before anyone arrived, and looked at the door with joyful faces.
"Sir! Sir! Please save Vanis!"
The black woman seemed to realize who had more right to speak here, and immediately moved her knees excitedly and came to Xia Xu.
This is a thin and haggard middle-aged woman. Judging from her dress and appearance, she should not be a Masai, and there is no Masai Eye entry on the property panel.
But judging from the meaning in her words, she seemed to be Vanis' mother.
"Relax, calm down, I will rescue Vannis, but you need to tell me first, what happened?"
Xia Xu helped the woman up in relief while asking about the situation.
The woman's excitement stemmed from her eagerness to save her son. His words were obviously very skillful and efficient, and he quickly calmed her down and explained the whole story.
A very simple episode that seems to happen here is not surprising.
In the beginning, Wannis only worked for a long time as Yang Bowen's guide and translator, and was sent home from get off work in the evening.
It's just that it is not very human to be the protagonist of the plot. Perhaps it is because of the eagerness to seize the opportunity to make a difference and the special affection for Xinghai Group. After returning home, Vannis is not at peace.
He often hangs out in the market, so he naturally has no shortage of opportunities to get in touch with dark and idle people. After returning home, Vannis tentatively made contact with some local gangsters.
Of course, he doesn't have a strong network of connections, so it is natural that he needs money in the middle of the journey.
Today, Vannis has already received a large amount of commission from Xinghai Security in advance, so it is not difficult to imagine that this process should be that he chose to use this commission to pay in advance.
Normally, it would not cost much just to inquire about the news from the underlings. The Xinghai Group could not be short of such a small amount of money, and it would definitely be reimbursed afterwards, but the credit for finding out the information and the credit for assisting them are not the same.
For those with a little guts and adventurous spirit, this is a simple multiple-choice question that does not need to be weighed.
It's a pity that Vannis, as the protagonist of the plot, does not lack the spirit of adventure and self-motivation, but he obviously underestimated the greed of human nature.
The young man crossed the market with money, but he was still facing a group of gangsters, no matter how successful he was in his pretentiousness, he could not completely dispel everyone's "adventurous spirit".
Therefore, it is very reasonable and in line with the daily routine of the local area. He was kidnapped, and the threat and blackmail message was notified face-to-face, which can be described as fast and efficient.
Many people probably think that I am a eunuch... Let me explain a little bit.
It seems that I have relatively serious symptoms of depression, and my recent mental state is a bit hard to describe. I don't want to talk to or move anything, and I haven't made up my mind to see a psychiatrist or something...
In short, I don't want eunuchs subjectively, and I try to adjust and restore updates.
