Chapter 405: Snow Monster
"Ahh
Sharp screams pierced the silent night sky.
After passively, the woman's body also fell on the thick snow.
Xu Chongtao and Chen Shi'an reflexively retreated, and at this time, Qian Xiaodao and others also came one after another.
"This ...... What's going on? ”
Qian Xiaodao furrowed his brows, and slowly squatted down against the corpse, looking at the wound carefully.
"Judging from the marks on the outer ring of the wound, it should have been bitten by some kind of beast with sharp and dense teeth."
Zhao Chao glanced at the wound, then turned his head away, and looked around vigilantly: "In such a deep mountain, it is common to be attacked by wild beasts, although the taste of that beast is a little strange, but the question is, how did she get here?" ”
As the leader of the team, Chen Shi'an said in a deep voice: "Don't move yet, let's carefully check the footprints around us." ”
As he spoke, Chen Shi'an and Xu Chongtao began to slowly investigate according to the footprints they had taken.
However, to their surprise, there were no other footprints other than the footprints of eight people around.
Cherry walked to Qian Xiaodao's side and whispered in Qian Xiaodao's ear.
Qian Xiaodao was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but look up a few times.
"Brother An, let's check the treetops around you."
As soon as they heard Qian Xiaodao say this, everyone shone their flashlights upward.
"What's that!?"
Sure enough, Chen Shi'an's girlfriend Zheng Wanzhen found something.
With her exclamation, everyone looked in the direction of her flashlight. Thirty or forty meters from the camp was a rather stout tree, and at this moment, there seemed to be a figure standing on the pole.
"What's that?"
"People?"
"No, the tree pole is bare, how can a person's feet be firmly fixed, and judging by the body shape, the inverted sound is an orangutan or something."
As soon as Zhao Chao said this, Ma Ao suddenly said: "I remember, it was reported on TV before, saying that a snow monster was found in the depths of the Changbai Mountains, could it be this thing?" ”
Xu Chongtao had already taken out a compound crossbow from his tent and aimed it at the figure in the treetops.
The shadow seemed to realize the danger and hurriedly jumped from the treetop to another tree, and its movements were so fast that it was out of sight in the blink of an eye.
Chen Shi'an shone his flashlight around again, and said to everyone: "It seems that our five boys are going to take turns to be on duty next." ”
Qian Xiaodao nodded: "It's nothing to be on duty, it's just that I'm wondering where this woman came from?" Judging by her clothes, she doesn't look like a local, she should be an explorer like us. ”
No one answered Qian Xiaodao's words, in fact, everyone was thinking about this question.
After that, the five men dug a shallow pit in the snow next to the camp and buried her.
"It's nine o'clock, and it's about one o'clock in the middle of the night, so I'll be on duty."
Qian Xiaodao said this, which was approved by Chen Shi'an, and it was Zhao Chao who replaced Qian Xiaodao in the second half of the night.
"Childe, I'll accompany you."
After everyone entered the tent, Cherry put on an overcoat for Qian Xiaodao.
didn't drive Cherry back to the tent, and after getting along for a while, Qian Xiaodao gradually figured out Cherry's character.
This girl has her own ruler for doing things for others, and she is very measured; She basically didn't need Qian Xiaodao to worry about doing things, so she sat beside her, and Qian Xiaodao didn't say anything.
After all, he knew that even if he drove her into the tent, she would worry about herself and not be able to sleep.
Qian Xiaodao added a piece of dry wood to the fire, glanced at a few tents, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly: "By the way, how can I have a sense of Conan's déjà vu, bizarre and strange things will happen wherever I go." ”
Cherry smiled lightly: "That means that you are the protagonist." ”
"The main character?"
Qian Xiaodao looked at himself and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he didn't continue to discuss this issue, but said endlessly: "Anyway, they are all surprisingly calm." ”
And Cherry actually understood, and responded: "Well, yes, in addition to starting to pretend to scream, after that, even the strength of pretending to be saved was saved." ”
Also, as long as he is a normal person, he will definitely be startled when he sees a dead person, and he will be more or less flustered after that, and whether it is Chen Shi'an or Zhao Chao's two brothers, they are all incredibly calm.
"Childe, do you still have night vision?"
Qian Xiaodao shook his head: "No, it's just that I recently found that my eyesight seems to be better than when I just lost my six pupils, and I can see farther." ”
"You can see that thing in the tree, too?"
"It's not very clear, but the general outline is clear." Qian Xiaodao continued, "Judging from the appearance, it should be an animal like a gorilla, but its body shape is obviously thicker than that of a gorilla. Also, because its hair is white, the specific outline is not clear. ”
"Is it really a snow monster?"
Qian Xiaodao nodded: "It's normal to have this kind of creature in this deep mountain, the only thing that worries me is not the snow monster, but the thing that bites the chest." ”
"That woman wasn't killed by the snow monster?"
"It's not." For this point, Qian Xiaodao seemed very firm, "This frozen corpse was indeed brought by the snow monster, but the person was not killed by it, but I have a feeling that the snow monster seems to be reminding us." ”
"This ...... It's a possibility. Cherry's voice also muffled.
"Childe, should we tell them?"
Qian Xiaodao glanced at the tent and smiled coldly: "I'm afraid they already knew, and it's just us who have been kept in the dark." ”
"Childe means that they used to be all the way?"
"It's just a guess, anyway, I'm still the same sentence, after finding the dragon vein, we will part ways."
"Hmm."
The next morning, the crowd continued on their way.
The deeper she went, the thicker the snow became, and once Cherry accidentally stepped on it, and the snow didn't even reach her shoulder.
And in order to hide that she knows ancient martial arts, Cherry can only be dragged out of the deep snow by Qian Xiaodao.
Of course, when she was slapped with snow, the cherry was blushing, blooming like a snow lotus, delicate and dazzling.
A day was spent in a hurry.
After eating, Qian Xiaodao specially asked Chen Shi'an: "Brother An, how far are we from our destination?" ”
Chen Shi'an smiled and said, "According to our current pace, we can arrive tomorrow evening." ”
Qian Xiaodao was about to speak, and Zheng Wanzhen exclaimed again: "What is that!?" ”
Everyone turned their heads at the same time and found that there was a black shadow standing there on the tree pole more than ten meters away.
And when everyone searched, it fled again.
"What the hell is this guy going to do?"
Zhao Chao said with a frown.
After glancing around, Qian Xiaodao reached out and picked up a burning wooden stick from the fire and threw it at the forest more than ten meters behind him!
