Chapter 185: It's hard to move an inch
The weather is sunny, the sky is high and crisp in the middle of winter, the river level is gentle and clear, and the hills on both sides of the bank are undulating, it looks like a beautiful picture, not at all like a dangerous and dangerous place of confusion.
After walking for about an hour, Qiu Yan and the others walked along the river into a river valley, and suddenly saw a colorful color suddenly appear in front of them. If you look closely, there are actually several acres of land in size, full of all kinds of colorful and colorful flowers. The flowers are delicate and beautiful, and each one is extremely large, the smallest of which seems to be the size of a basin, blooming in the daylight, as if it were a rainbow that has fallen into the world.
Li Mowu's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but be surprised. "Wow, I can't imagine such beautiful flowers in this poor ravine." With that, he stretched out his hand to touch.
Before the words fell, he suddenly heard Qiu Yan speaking lightly beside him. "If you don't want to die, stay away from there. ”
Li Mowu looked back in amazement, half-opened his mouth, and asked. "Why?"
Qiu Yan walked forward without looking back, leaning closer to the river, far away from the flowers, while explaining. "The scientific name of this plant is 'Sun Wheel', on weekdays, it is a flexible creature with flowers, but where there is a prey a little closer, there are countless spikes and rattans breaking out of the ground, wrapping the prey and pulling back, at the same time, there is a toxin on the thorns, but it is not fatal, it will instantly paralyze the nervous system, so that the prey is paralyzed and unable to move, and then dragged back into the flowers, it will be reduced to flesh and blood. If you still don't understand..."Qiu Yan groaned for a moment and continued. "Cannibal flowers, you know..."
His words were plain, but Li Mowu was dumbfounded when he heard it, with an incredible look on his face, and when he looked at the beautiful flowers, he couldn't help but shudder and said in a low voice. "How can this poor ravine be something of a nondescript kind? ”
Qiu Yan glanced at him, shook his head and didn't speak, turned around and continued to walk forward. Li Mowu was a little discouraged, sighed, and still followed.
"By the way, why are you so familiar with the things in this deep mountain and old forest?"
"These are just my compulsory courses, some jungle warfare is essential in the mercenary mission, if you are wounded, anything inconspicuous in the jungle may kill you or save your life. Expanding one's knowledge is often not about helping oneself, but about being able to detect danger at a critical moment. ”
The two walked along the riverbank and chatted, bypassing this seemingly beautiful flower land, and walked a little further, and when they were about to walk out of this valley with man-eating flowers, they suddenly heard a whining sound before the test, which sounded a little sad, and it was somewhat similar to the howling of wolves yesterday.
Li Mowu's first reaction was that the hairs on his whole body stood on end, and he almost jumped up, he was chased by those terrible wolves yesterday and almost died, which made him almost allergic to this terrible sound.
However, in contrast, Qiu Yan was much calmer, he first grabbed Li Mowu, who was about to rush forward to flee for his life, and lifted him behind the rock wall, while frowning and looking at the side of the exit of the river valley.
Li Mowu was stunned, and he didn't know what Qiu Yan was going to do, so he also showed half of his head and looked around, and then he was stunned, only to see that there were no fierce beasts on the ground over there. No, it seems to be a cub of an animal, not big, it looks like the length of its forearm at most, and its fur is black, but it is a little lighter than the wolves of yesterday, and it looks a little different. On its back, in particular, from the back of its head down to its back, there is a narrow white fur band, which is very clear, showing that the cub is not a wolf cub.
After Li Mowu looked at it for a while, he immediately saw more strangeness.
The cub lay on the ground, unable to move, but wailed and screamed, and looked very pitiful and helpless. One foot dragged behind him, and unlike the other three, it seemed to be broken.
"What is this?" Li Mowu said in a low voice.
"I don't know, I can't see what species it is, but... Something is wrong.." Qiu Yan glanced around, the birds were silent, unusually quiet, and there were no insects and birds.
"It can't be a bait, can it be that even animals have such intelligence?" Li Mowu also seemed to be aware of the abnormal movement around him.
"Sometimes, animals are much smarter than humans. ”
"This, this is really a refinement, what should I do?"
"Get around. With that, the two looked at each other and quietly disappeared behind the rock wall.
The two quietly walked all the way around the river and out of the valley, and the cub finally disappeared from their sight.
At the same time, the river made a big bend here and continued to flow in the other direction. Qiu Yan stopped here, looked up, looked around, and looked at the sky, as if he was identifying the direction and terrain, and Li Mowu seemed to be relieved after hesitating while waiting, and couldn't help but take advantage of this opportunity to quietly take a few steps towards the river valley, and glanced at the place just now.
However, at this glance, Li Mowu suddenly let out a low sound, and then swayed Qiu Yan up and down with the palm that was not injured, his eyes were full of horror.
Qiu Yan next to him immediately noticed Li Mowu's abnormality, looked back and looked over, and then frowned.
I saw that near the cub with the broken leg in the distance, a spotted leopard with a small head suddenly appeared, showing its sharp fangs, slowly approaching the cub, and at the same time there was greed in his eyes.
The cub screamed violently, as if sensing impending doom, and struggled to shrink back, but one of its broken legs dragged on the ground, and no matter how hard it tried to crawl away, it was only a feeble dying struggle.
The spotted leopard obviously saw through the vulnerability of the cub, but as a wild beast, it was still a little wary, first looking around and seeing that there were no lurking enemies nearby, and at the same time it was also very afraid of the man-eating flower, and kept a long distance.
The cub was about ten meters away from the man-eating flower, and the spotted leopard looked at the flower, as if he decided that this distance was enough not to alarm the flower, so he let out a low roar, and his body soared into the air, and he pounced on the cub.
The cub screamed miserably, and the voice was terrible, but at this moment, suddenly out of nowhere, a black shadow flew out of nowhere, slashed through the air, and smashed directly into the middle ground between the cub and the man-eating flower.
Qiu Yan fixed his eyes, and suddenly his pupils shrank, only to see that what was suddenly thrown out was a bloody piece of meat.
"Whew.." There seemed to be a gentle breeze, and suddenly everything fell silent in the vast valley clearing.
Almost instantly, the spotted leopard, whose body had been soaring in the air, suddenly let out a roar, but the ground in front of him suddenly shook violently, and near the piece of flesh, only to hear a 'boom', several thick rattans covered with spikes broke through the ground, rushed out of the ground, and swept the piece of flesh and blood at once.
However, the piece of meat was too small, and it was motionless, and a few rattans squirmed a few times, and in an instant, they seemed to sense something, and they all turned in a different direction. This time, it was against the spotted leopard that leaped into the air.
