Chapter 7 The Lost Birds
The giant centipede writhed its body, but its tentacles did not move, but it crawled forward like a snake, and leaned its body towards the river, without making a sound, and Chengli was right underneath. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Chengli, who had just surfaced, did not fully meet the demand for oxygen from the body's cells, and was still panting there, and the whole person unconsciously relaxed in this state.
In this case, his reflexes were more than a notch slower, and when the giant centipede above his head crushed some fine earth and stones and fell on him, Cheng Li realized something and slowly raised his head.
"Hiss-" As soon as I looked up, I saw that the giant centipede opened a pair of bright jaws, revealing the dark mouthparts covered with small arthropods in the middle, and the whole was pressed down with the momentum of Mount Tai, and the cold hairs on his body stood upside down, and he gasped on the spot, and he was in a hurry, and he almost couldn't keep his balance and slid directly into the water.
However, now there is only a way to survive by entering the water, and I can't help but just climb out of the water with great difficulty, and I haven't finished changing my breath, so I take a full breath and get out of the water with a sharp prick.
Damn it! Damn it! Why can't I swim?! If you could swim, you would have left here a long time ago, how could you be guarded by it like a fool.
Waiting for the rabbit? Wait for the rabbit!
I'm the rabbit?!
The extreme fear of the moment made him use his hands and feet together, and he desperately crawled away from the place, and fortunately, only three or four seconds later, a shock came from behind him, and knocked him out - the giant centipede threw himself into the water.
Unlike Chengli who only splashed a few small splashes when he jumped into the water before, the impact caused by the giant centipede jumping into the water directly exploded a column of rushing water, which flew dozens of meters high before it dispersed into overwhelming water droplets and fell like a torrential rain, and the trees on both sides of the river were gargling and trembling.
But the effects of the giant centipede's fall were yet to come - the shock wave completely disturbed the calm of the water, and there were chaotic undercurrents everywhere, and even formed small whirlpools, rolling up a cloud of muddy sand, and the whole river was almost overturned.
Cheng Li was swept into a whirlpool, and his body turned involuntarily in the muddy water, and in a place like the bottom of the water, where he couldn't borrow strength at all, no matter how much he tried to stabilize his body, he couldn't do it.
Chengli felt that as he struggled desperately, the already small amount of oxygen was being consumed sharply, and he hurriedly stopped his senseless actions, letting himself spin in the water, and slowly touched the bottom of the river under the action of gravity.
At that moment, a little on his toes, he violently rushed out of the restraints of the dark vortex by means of the reaction force, and directly hit the underwater riverbank, and before being bounced away, taking advantage of the momentum provided by the water behind him under the action of inertia, Cheng Li finally grabbed the soft mud.
Chengli didn't dare to stay and hurriedly grabbed the buckle up, and under the impact of the undercurrent, his body swayed left and right, and finally crawled out of the water.
"Bah, baba
The originally clear water of the river was already muddy, the water surface was tumbling and surging, and the tail of the giant centipede not far away was still exposed on the water, constantly swaying, adding to the already undulating water waves.
"I%#*&!" As soon as he thought that the giant centipede was in the river that he couldn't see clearly, he felt a burst of hair, and saw that there was a shoal in the place where the river was diverted not far ahead, so he hurriedly groped his way over and crawled out of the water.
Climbing up to the river beach, the figure of the giant centipede has been blocked by the protruding rocks, but Chengli didn't dare to stay at all, he didn't fall to his death, and the centipede was even more impossible, thinking that it would come out at any time, Chengli hurriedly quickened his pace.
The whole river seemed to have become a demon in his heart, and it was terrifying to look at, and as he looked around and walked away from the riverbank, Chengli finally chose a small slope and stopped there.
After falling to the ground and gasping for breath for a while, Chengli slowly recovered, and only then did he feel that his stomach was full of river water, rippling and rippling, and there was a feeling of nausea.
Stumbling to prop up two legs that had been swollen to the point of trembling, Cheng Li bent down, "vomit-" straightened his neck and clasped his throat and spit out all the water.
When the water in his stomach was almost vomited, Cheng Li sat down and fell down directly.
Chengli is exhausted, I don't want to think about anything anymore, whatever it is, come on, I just don't move, I'm just lying here.
Chengli didn't bother to take off the clothes that stuck to his body after he was soaked, he didn't know when he lost one of his shoes, and he didn't know where the knife and the package with the food were left in the river, but Chengli didn't even have the strength to think about it, and the disappearance of the uncomfortable feeling of flatulence in his stomach made all the fatigue he had been suppressing burst out all at once.
Do nothing, think about nothing.
Just looking at the sky, exhaustion floods the brain, and everything becomes blurry......
The white clouds, before Chengli gradually lost consciousness and fell into darkness, leaving only a misty white cloud in his mind.
Yan Shou Lisheng originally planned to stay in the forest for another night, but he knew that his plan had failed.
From the beginning of the moment, there was a series of sounds of "Xi Xi Suo" from time to time, and something had entered this forest.
Yan Shou Lisheng thought it was just an illusion at first, but since he thought that he was almost killed by a ghost last night, the chill penetrated his heart from time to time, and any wind and grass could make him nervous for a long time.
These unsettling-sounding voices are getting denser and denser, and Yan Shou Lisheng feels that something is wrong, how can my hallucinations be so serious?
Since it is not that he is suspicious, that is, something has indeed happened, Yan Shou Lisheng felt the sound of Si Xi Suosuo, which was already as dense as rain hitting leaves, coming from all directions, surrounding himself, and his back began to sweat uncontrollably.
So much! I'm going to be found if I run out now, right? Yan Shou Lisheng felt scared, and hugged the long knife in his hand, he was not so unbearable before, but he was only frightened last night, and he was already scared.
After thinking about it, Yan Shou Lisheng decided to wait and see what was going on.
He soon regretted his decision.
As the sound got closer and closer, black shadows slowly appeared in the distance, Yan Shou Lisheng squinted and looked closely, how did these black shadows look like snakes!?
When he saw that those black shadows were all snakes, Yan Shou Lisheng's face suddenly turned pale, and the sound of "Xi Xi Suosuo" getting closer and closer in his ears directly made him feel so frightened that he softened.
Snake, Yan Shou Lisheng has not only seen it, but also killed a few with his own hands, the weak is pitiful, but the meat quality is good, his impression of the snake is only this.
However, no matter what happens, when there are many of them, they can become extremely terrifying, especially snakes, which are already uncomfortable and disgusting.
Damn it!
Yan Shou Lisheng jumped up directly, no longer caring about the exposure of any bullshit, the danger is not dangerous, so many snakes crawl over, how can there be room to hide?
As for climbing trees, Yan Shou Lisheng didn't even think about it, that was waiting for death, but snakes would climb trees.
Yan Shou Lisheng never thought that he would fall into this field, he was sick, his head hurt badly, and he was chased by a bunch of snakes.
This is definitely a ghost played by Teng Wu to take the clock! He can control even ghosts, let alone snakes? It must have been that I wasn't caught, and he knew that I was good at water and would never die in the river, so he just... Yes, the demons couldn't move during the day, so he sent snakes to harm me.
Just listening to the voice in his ears, Yan Shou Lisheng felt the creepy number, Teng Wu took the clock, you demon monk, don't share the heavens, me and you!
Although the hatred is crazy, Yan Shou Lisheng's heart is powerless, and finally made a move?
These snakes were just ordinary snakes such as water snakes and spotted snakes, and Yan Shou Lisheng quickly threw them away, which was a thing worth rejoicing, but for Yan Shou Lisheng, it was the opposite, he had already expected what would happen next.
The sun was about to set, and his heart slowly sank as he felt the night getting closer and closer.
Ghosts can't come out during the day, so it's just snakes, but what about at night? At that time, it will not be a snake, the Buddha statue has been cracked like this, can it still work?
The sky darkened, standing on the top of the mountain, feeling the chill of the mountain wind, Yan Shou Lisheng looked at the western sky, the sun did not have the dazzling splendor in the daytime, and was radiating blood-colored light to all things.
Very beautiful, Yan Shou Lisheng looked at the sunset, this moment he forgot everything, forgot the fear of coming, forgot the exhaustion of the body, forgot that he was still sick and needed to keep warm, let the cool evening breeze blow, the whole person completely fell into the beauty of the sunset.
It wasn't until the sunset completely set on the horizon and the moon sowed light that Yan Shou Lisheng slowly came back to his senses.
Stretching out his right hand, Yan Shou Lisheng looked carefully at his powerful fingers, looking carefully with a serious attitude that he had never seen before.
The calluses on the joints of the palm of the tiger's mouth, the protruding bones of the knuckles on the back of the hand, the texture, the palm line, after looking at it for a long time, he slowly held the handle of the knife and looked ahead.
A gust of wind blew, Yan Shou Lisheng didn't pay attention to the grass that was being overwhelmed, just looked straight ahead, empty, but he knew that a wind was coming.
Draw the knife and put it into the sheath.
Only a hair-thin sword light flashed in the moonlight.
The wind blew, but the wind was very strange, only blowing the hem of his hands against his skin, but the scattered hair did not move at all, as if parting from the middle.
Yan Shou Lisheng knew that this was not a delusion.
The wind was cut open.
He knew he was completely different.
Ghost? Let them come.
Yan Shou Lisheng felt that his heart had never been so calm, no distractions, no fear, no sorrow or joy, and no dust.
I've never felt so clean in the whole world.
Looking at the darkness of the night in the distance, although he did not see or hear, he knew that a bird had flown over.
Yan Shou Lisheng stood there, just waiting.
Soon, only the sound of fluttering and flapping wings was heard, and a bird flew over the head of Yan Shou Lisheng.
Enlightened?
Enlightened.
Jiudao Yibensheng practiced martial arts diligently every morning and evening, and never slacked off; Jiudao Yizaburo is talented and intelligent, and now he is in his twenties, which is the most fleshy age for men, even if they have the nine Daoyi Benduo's feeding moves, they do not have the shadow of enlightenment, they have neither the diligence of Bensheng, nor the physique of Saburo, and they are only seventeen years old, so they are enlightened?
It's hard to believe.
"But," Yan Shou Lisheng opened his arms and hugged the whole world, "I am indeed enlightened. ”
"Hahaha......" He couldn't help the joy in his heart, and he laughed out loud when everything was quiet, and the laughter spread far and wide around the mountains.
At least, everyone in the cottage heard it.
"Lord Yan Shou Lisheng seems to be very happy, you say, will our daughter be taken a fancy to?"
"It feels like the voice of the eldest prince of Yan Shou Lisheng, doesn't it mean that he is sick and recuperating at home?"
"Strictly defend the victory? What are you so happy about? I'm done with my homework, and I'm going to play with him tomorrow. ”
……
"Do you want to win by the strict guard?" Teng Wu took the bell and was also one of the people who heard who it was, "It's still here, I finally survived last night and didn't leave?" He chuckled, as if mocking Yan Shou Lisheng's incompetence, "Hmph." ”
Chengli was awakened by the cold, and a deep chill in his sleep woke him up.
When I opened my eyes, it was already the middle of the moon.
The moon is round, but "the moon is even rounder in my hometown." Chengli felt the beauty of the full moon mirror and muttered.
The clothes were still a little damp, especially the back one, and as soon as he stood up, he was blown by the wind in the night, and a chill came, which made him shiver again.
The moonlit night is very beautiful, especially in this mountain forest, where the verdant and moonlight are intertwined, if he can, Chengli would like to stop and feel the beauty of nature, but unfortunately, he knows that if he does not find a sheltered place to stay, he is afraid that he will be sick.
What's more, after experiencing two things during the day, Chengli was a little afraid of the wilderness, and besides, the knife had also fallen off, and he had no weapon to defend himself.
My stomach also began to be hungry, but there was nothing on my body, and I didn't remember where the package fell in the river, and even if I knew, Chengli didn't dare to pick it up, and God knew if the centipede was still there.
After observing and comparing the directions, Cheng Li estimated the general direction of the wooden house, and ran directly in order to arrive early.
And just enough to warm up, he thought.
For people in the wild, the most terrible thing is not the absence of food, nor the absence of water, the most terrible thing is disorientation.
After running for a full quarter of an hour without seeing the familiar terrain, Seori knew that he had lost his way.
But it shouldn't.
According to Chengli's estimate, it should be no more than a kilometer away from the stronghold now, how can it be that it hasn't arrived yet?
Something was wrong, and the unexpected situation made Cheng Li a little nervous at first, but he didn't notice anything wrong, so he could only step on the fluffy grass and slowly retreat.
"Quack, quack, quack, quack." There was a crow chirping in the sky, which made Cheng Li, who was already a little irritable, very unhappy.
Don't go back to the nest so late? If I had a bow in my hand, I would shoot you with an arrow!"
"Quack." I don't know if I felt Cheng Li's full of malice, this crow has been hovering over his head with Cheng Li since this moment, and has been calling twice from time to time.
Cheng Li simply left him alone and went his own way.
If you like to scream, scream, break your broken voice!
Cheng Li discerned the road when he came and slowly walked back, but fortunately, his memory is better than one grade now, although he didn't deliberately remember any route, but just subconsciously paid attention to Cheng Li to find the way he came.
According to the route in memory, there should be a jungle here, and Chengli looked at the empty hillside to the south, and finally realized that something was wrong.
But there was no other way, it was impossible to just stand still, Chengli continued to walk, but this time he began to pay attention to some details, the shape of the branches, the density of the trees, the shape of the mountains in the distance, the changes in the landform......
Looking at the woods that were completely different from when he came, Chengli said that he had expected it, but his heart still sank.
Ghost hitting the wall? Not like.
Cheng Li chose a tree at random, the trunk was a little slanted, a branch hung down directly, and the leaves had already grown, but it was a little sparse, and it seemed that it was still growing.
Picking off a leaf, Cheng Li looked at it through the moonlight, the veins were very clear, tearing off a little and pinching it, and juice seeped out.
Throwing down this leaf, Cheng Li touched the trunk of the tree, which was very rough, and it was the texture of the tree; Stamped his feet, there was also a sense of vibration.
It's all true.
So, what's going on?
"Quack, quack." The crow is still hovering in the sky.
Chengli raised his head suddenly, what the hell did it do?
"Quack." Still hovering there, screaming.
There is a problem.
"Quack, quack, quack......" seemed to notice that the person below was looking at itself, and it shouted more happily.
This is the first time Chengli has looked at it carefully, and he thought it was just an ordinary crow, but now it seems that it is obviously not.
But after looking at it for a long time, I can only see that its pitch-black feathers are shining in the moonlight, it should be well maintained, and there is no difference other than that, no different from ordinary crows.
Shaking his sour neck, Chengli continued to explore, everything will have a reason, and if you can't find it, it doesn't mean that you don't have it.
"Quack, quack." Chengli didn't see the biggest difference between it and other crows, it had three eyes.
Three-eyed crow, man-eating bird.
