The sickle-shaped crescent moon hangs in the lonely night, and the bleak wind mixed with the sound of insects infects the earth.

The only three of them were left to hide in an open area at the foot of the mountain, where they lit a campfire to prevent the beasts from attacking.

“…… Send rain, how can I explain this to my family!"

Yu Longping's eyes were already wet red, and tears were piled up into a small water stall, he still caressed the body of the girl in his arms, hoping that she would be able to open her eyes the next moment.

The girl's blood had long since dried up, her limbs had stiffened, and her face seemed more beautiful in the moonlight than before her death. Flying insects that smell the scent of corpses dance and make annoying buzzing sounds, as if they were having a carnival dance.

But he didn't care, the joy of the flying insect was incompatible with his sad heart, in front of him was his cousin who he had seen growing up since he was a child, and the age difference between him and his cousin was large after all, and he took care of her as if he were also a father and a brother......

If it weren't for the serious illness of her mother, who couldn't repay the sale of her property, the only capable brother and sister in the family would not have embarked on the road of poaching, and she would not have died tragically in the mountains and forests......

This night, the three of them didn't say a word, and four people died in the seven-person squad, indicating that it was Liu Ye's dereliction of duty as the captain.

"I'm so stupid, really, why...... Why do you want to set foot in that strange village so easily, so everyone ...... it"

The face illuminated by the firelight was soaked with tears, and it was unbelievable that Liu Ye, the captain who was so strong and indifferent on weekdays, would grieve like this.

Poaching is not so easy to prohibit because the benefits outweigh the risks. Although the tiger has perfect combat ability, but in the face of the human beings who have opened the plug-in, the tiger is still more than capable of enough, once the hunt is successful, then the poachers will get as many as hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of benefits from the tiger.

As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, and human beings have a great need for money, and in the face of a cornucopia like tigers, they often hunt them at all costs.

I remember that Uncle Wang said that he had found traces of the South China tiger in this mountain forest, and Liu Ye couldn't resist the huge temptation.

By virtue of his kinship with the officers, he got a couple of guns, a couple of * and net ammunition by other means, and an off-road vehicle.

Then he contacted this group of people who were forced by life to form such a team of poachers, and set out on the mountain forest with a fluke mentality, driven by huge profits, and embarked on the road of poaching rare animals.

For most of the people in the squad, this was a first for the first time. Xia Long, the youngest, only 15 years old, Yu Longping and his cousin Yang Jiyu, who were forced by life...... also includes captain Liu Ye himself.

Liu Ye, who raised the most materials and had strong organizational skills, became the captain, but in fact, he was lonely and fragile in his heart, and he just covered it up with a cold appearance. Especially when the team suffered such a huge injury, this is Liu Ye's dereliction of duty, and he himself is very guilty.

Xia Long, the youngest, also leaned against the bonfire with his legs crossed, praying that the warmth of the flame would dispel the coldness of his soul.

Xia Long is a smart, clever, excellent student, who has won many academic awards, but because of his poor family, after finishing junior high school, his family could not support him to go to high school.

By chance, he heard from his neighbor, Uncle Kongshan, that the profits from poaching were huge and changed his fate. With a worried and uneasy heart, he embarked on this path with this group, and on the surface he smiled cheerfully and sunnyly at the people in the group, but in fact, his heart was the most unsettled.

"Uncle Liu, I, can we still go home......" Xia Long sobbed, and looked at the captain Liu Ye who was wrapped in grief with timid eyes.

"I swear with my life, I'll get you out of here safely......"

"Fart! If it weren't for your misjudgment, you wouldn't have walked into that village...... She won't die when she sends rain, we can't trust you anymore!" Yu Longping walked up to Liu Ye excitedly, holding his collar, and saw that his fist was about to fall on Liu Ye's face.

Liu Ye was also ready to accept Yu Longping's grief and indignation, Xia Long's hands were quick, and he hurriedly ran over and grabbed Yu Longping's arm.

Xia Long shouted: "Uncle Yu, Uncle Liu, he didn't mean it, we lost all our equipment, in this deep mountain and old forest, the sky is about to get dark again, cold and hungry, if you see a village, you will naturally go there...... This is the thinking of normal people, if you make a decision, you will do it!"

"But...... But ......"

"Come on...... Liu Ye grabbed Yu Longping's fist and hit him in the face, and the sound frightened the birds to scatter.

"You, why ......" Yu Longping and Xia Long hurriedly helped Liu Ye up, Yu Longping looked at Liu Ye's red and swollen face with a guilty face, Liu Ye said forcefully: "Are you relieved?" Life and death are impermanent, the deceased is gone, instead of immersing yourself in the grief of the past, it is better to ...... Look to the future. ”

Between the words, Liu Ye held down Yu Longping and shouted: "Living people, there is something more important to do, that is, to live hard! Your sister's spirit in the sky doesn't want you to fall like this because of her death!!"

"Okay, I know......" Yu Longping finally calmed down, bowed his head to Liu Ye, who was younger than himself, and squatted next to his cousin's corpse, his eyes sank again, and tears dripped on his dusty hands, "Jiyu, I hurt you, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to live......"

The sound of "rustling" suddenly remembered, sounding the alarm for the three of them, Liu Ye vigilantly raised the gun and aimed it at the source of the sound.

They don't know what animal is approaching, or if the group of fierce villagers are chasing after them, and the three of them poach "Meng Xin", which is really vulnerable in this big forest.

The giant creature slowly crawled from the bushes, and under the light of the moon and fire, its eight eyes emitted an ominous light, and it was a golden scorpion, a giant scorpion that had been magnified countless times, a cruel and bloodthirsty monster.

Just by the first glance, it was known that its size was more than 3 meters, and the carapace glowed with a metallic sheen under the mixture of moonlight and firelight, sharp and hard, and the deadly tail hook was aimed at the three of them.

Liu Ye took a few steps back in shock, couldn't even hold the gun in his hand steadily, and muttered, "Oh my God, I've never seen such a huge scorpion!"

"It's unbelievable that there is such a huge scorpion in the world!" Yu Longping's sadness was replaced by surprise in an instant, and he didn't dare to make eye contact with the eight eyes of the giant scorpion, afraid that he would become the prey of the giant scorpion in the next moment.

"Uncle Liu, what should we do?" Xia Long also trembled and held the gun, constantly retreating under the gaze of the giant scorpion.

"Don't, don't be afraid! we have a gun, so let's slowly distance ourselves from it!" Liu Ye said solemnly, in fact, his heart was even more flustered than the two of them.

The three of them gradually fell backwards, maintaining a distance of more than 5 meters from the giant scorpion, the giant scorpion stared at the guns in the hands of the three people, turned its gaze to the corpse of the girl on the side, and slowly climbed towards her.

"Monster, you are not allowed to touch her!" Yu Longping was in a hurry, and shot at it, leaving only a shallow depression in the carapace of the giant scorpion.

The scorpion likes to eat fresh food, and the giant scorpion attacked by Yu Longping locked his bloodthirsty gaze, raised the pliers, and aimed at Yu Longping's neck, and the six legs gathered strength.

For a while, the mountains and forests at night were quiet, the sound of mosquitoes flapping their wings disappeared, the moon shuttled quietly through the clouds, and the earth was dead silent......
