Chapter 13: The Black Sheep in the Graveyard
Chapter 13: The Black Sheep in the Graveyard
The goat-like black sheep, as soon as it was hit, did not fall to the ground and die. Instead, they regained their footing and prepared to run away again.
"Whoosh... Sou... Whoosh..."
Three more arrows rang out, piercing the void, as fast as lightning, and struck the black sheep's body.
"Baa..." a miserable scream, like a baby's cry, made people feel turbulent and surprised when they heard it. The black sheep was hit by three more arrows, and finally shook a few times and fell into the dry bones, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"Huh..."
As soon as the black sheep fell to the ground, the falcon, which had been eyeing the air, immediately swooped down and stretched out its iron hook-like claws to grab the black sheep. Fortunately, while it was seriously injured, it was killed with one blow, and it was killed.
However, at the last moment, when the falcon's talons were about to touch the black sheep, the black sheep jumped up and struck the falcon with its head, knocking it away.
This falcon is really amazing, once it was knocked off, but it didn't hit the ground. After hovering in the air for a while, he swooped down again, intending to attack again.
When the black sheep saw the falcon attacking again, his eyes were vicious and hateful. As soon as he tilted his head, he opened his mouth and spat out a cloud of black mist at the falcon.
Falcon is also a bird of prey that has been fighting with various prey for many years in the deep mountains and old forests, and is experienced and sophisticated. When it saw the black fog drifting in, it immediately fluffed its powerful wings and fanned up a strong wind to blow away all the black fog.
After adjusting its body, the falcon stretched out its claws again and struck at the black sheep's head.
I don't know if it was the black mist that dispersed, blocking the black sheep's view, and before it could react again, it was grabbed by the falcon's iron hook-like claws. Both eyes were also stabbed to pieces by sharp claws, and he was blind on the spot.
The falcon struck at it, grabbed the head of the black sheep, did not dare to let go of its claws, and firmly grasped it, and sank deep into the black sheep's brain, and then stirred its wings, trying to catch it in the air, and then throw it down and kill it.
Although the black sheep was blinded by the falcon in both eyes, had its skull broken, and was hit by four arrows in its body, it did not die, and continued to struggle and pray for its life. The limbs kicked wildly, and the strength was so great that the falcon, which had always been able to catch wild sheep and deer, could not fly much higher for a while, and was about to fall to the ground together.
The situation is precarious, and the Luo Orion in the distance is very anxious, and he is deeply afraid that the falcon that he has cultivated with great difficulty will lose more than he gains.
Just as he wanted to make a move, suddenly, there was a "whoosh" arrow, and a thick fast arrow broke through the air, hitting the throat of the black sheep, and still pierced through the arrow.
The black sheep screamed, then stopped struggling, and his limbs stiffened, and he died thoroughly, and finally died.
After listening to Luo Orion's story, the process of hunting the black sheep sounds very simple, but it is also thrilling to think about, and people can't help but wonder what the black sheep that was finally killed?
If it is an ordinary prey, how can there be a person who has been scratched by the head and has been hit by several arrows in his body, and still has the strength to struggle without dying, and can spit black gas from the mouth to resist the enemy, this is really strange and grotesque. People can't help but feel that in the world, there are really no wonders!
Luo Orion also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that at the last moment, it was his son who killed the black sheep with an arrow. He gestured for the falcon to bring his prey to him, and raised his torch to look up.
Only then did I find that the black sheep had black hair like ink, and it was like an ordinary black antelope, and strangely there were no antelope horns on its head.
When he picked it up, he found that this black antelope without horns was cold and cold, but its muscles were dead but not stiff, but there was no peculiar smell on its body, and the blood flowing from the wound was dark green, which was not comparable to ordinary prey, which made him even more surprised......
"I've been hunting for many years, and I've seen countless wild game creatures, but it's the first time I've seen this thing, so I don't know what it is?"
After listening to Luo Orion's statement, Wang Baoshan and the three of them were surprised and unbelievable at first. But when I heard the back, the expression on my face changed, and a nauseous chill stretched from my heels to the ends of my hair. Suddenly, his face was painful, and his face was flushed like a pig's liver. They immediately held their stomachs and retched. Compared with the previous nonsense of eating Haisai, at this moment, they can't wait to vomit out the gastric juice.
Because they had a bad premonition, the big pot of cooked meat they had just eaten, and that weird, unknown black mutton, how could it not make people feel cold in their hearts.
Luo Orion didn't hide it from them, and told them the truth that after he brought it home, he peeled and washed it, chopped it into pieces of meat, put some condiments, and cooked it over high heat. But because I saw the strangeness of that thing with my own eyes, I didn't dare to eat it, so I put it aside. When I just led Wang Baoshan and the three of them home, I saw that they were hungry and thirsty, and there was no other food at home for the time being, so I took them out to eat.
"I'm really sorry, I don't know how your body is now?" Luo Orion changed his previous coldness and indifference, and his face also had some apologies.
Wang Baoshan and the three of them retched for a long time, but they didn't spit out anything, and when they heard Luo Orion ask like this, they came to their senses. But I found that in addition to the feeling of fullness in my stomach, there was only comfort and satisfaction, and there was no slightest feeling of discomfort. Only then did they relax and stop retching, and the color of the pork liver on their faces gradually faded into patches of ruddy color.
At this time, Luo Ying's water was also boiled, and he made four bowls of strong tea and brought it over.
"There is no good tea to entertain, don't blame! This tea was brought to me by a friend of mine half a year ago, it is your tea from Huangjiang Prefecture, and when you are a monk for a long time, you just want to taste the tea of your hometown. Luo Orion picked up the tea bowl, put it under his nose, sniffed it, blew the hot air, took a small sip, and looked intoxicated.
When Wang Baoshan heard what he said, he was a little hesitant, afraid that Luo Orion would take out something strange for him to drink. But then he saw that Luo Orion himself had drunk it, so he put his mind at ease, picked up the tea bowl, and also learned from the other party to smell it, blow it, and take a sip.
Suddenly, I felt that this tea was bitter and bitter in the mouth, like bitter herb juice, and it was painful to swallow.
Sanpi and Du Xiaosan drank it, their faces were embarrassed, and they must have felt deeply distressed.
Luo Lihu saw the way and performance of the three of them drinking tea in their eyes, thought about it, and sneered after being silent for a while: "This is actually not the tea in Huangjiang Prefecture, not even ordinary tea, just a kind of detoxifying herb in this mountain..."
"Uncle Naluo, why did you say that just now?" Sanpi was flustered, and he was a little lacking in confidence.
"Hehe... Who are you? Looking at the way you drink tea, none of them are like the people in Huangjiang Prefecture. Luo Orion said coldly, his face like sinking water. sneered for a while, and said, "Just the three of you who don't know the height of the sky, how can you hide it from me." ”
After hearing this, Wang Baoshan and the three of them panicked, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
hesitated for a long time, and in the end, Wang Baoshan told the truth what kind of people the three of them were, how they were deceived into being mining slaves, how they escaped, and why they ran all the way here day and night...... 1510 said it all. After finishing speaking, he was afraid that Luo Orion would not believe it, so he rolled up his sleeves and showed the slave mark on his left shoulder to him.
Luo Orion looked at the slave seals of the three of them, his face softened, and he said in a kind tone: "I can't see that you are also people in great trouble, so what should you do in the future?"
"I can't hide it, I'm afraid of being laughed at by you when I say it, the three of us are planning to go to the Black Wind Ridge to see if we can worship the Black Wind Village and ask for a safe place. Seeing that Luo Orion had found out their identities, Sanpi didn't dare to hide anything anymore, so he had to tell the truth.
"Well, it's okay..."Luo Orion listened, nodded, and then said: "It's not early, it's late at night, let's rest first! ”
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Wang Baoshan woke up. After washing his face casually, he took out a little millet, and asked Luo Ying to find some wild vegetables and come back, and cooked a large pot of sparse wild vegetable porridge.
After everyone has washed their faces and finished breakfast. began to pack up their belongings, and after tidying up, they were ready to say goodbye to Luo Orion.
Luo Orion didn't say much, but sent them out, and asked his son to accompany them on a trip and take them out of this mountain forest, so that they would not get lost and run around again.
This made Wang Baoshan and the others overjoyed, and they were grateful to Luo Orion. They all said that if they have the opportunity in the future, they will definitely come to thank you and repay the grace of saving your life.
After the two parties said goodbye, Wang Baoshan and the others chose a direction and hit the road again. After the events of last night, they did not dare to pass through the mass grave again, for fear that something dangerous would happen to them. It was led by the little hunter Luo Ying, and after a few detours, he walked for a long time before he got away from the scalp-numbing mountain.
The mountain road is difficult to walk, the dense forest covers the sky, the sky is vast, and the people are inaccessible. Among them, all the hardships and hardships are not a problem, and it is enough to exhaust half of the living people.
Fortunately, Luo Ying knew the path and direction, otherwise it would definitely take a long time for them to walk on their own. But as he walked, Wang Baoshan became a little strange, this Luo Ying didn't mention the difference, this place was already far away from his home, getting farther and farther away, he didn't seem to have noticed it, just walked in front in a muffled voice.
"Brother Luo, this place is already far away from your home, so it's better for you to give us a ride, so that your father won't worry. ”
"No need..."Who knew that Luo Ying glanced at him lightly and didn't say anything more.
Sanpi on the side, it is also very strange to see him like this. The heart said what was wrong with this little hunter, and reminded him with kind words, but he didn't appreciate it. Although he knows this Luo Ying very well, his archery skills are outstanding, and he is familiar with the path of the deep mountains and old forests, he can resist any dangerous things. But after all, people are here to send them, how can he keep going with him!
He said: "Brother Luo, seeing that we are going to the south, we can walk the rest of the way ourselves, this time thanks to you, your father is still waiting for you at home, I don't think the time is too early, it is better for you to go back first..."
"I'm not going back..."Luo Ying didn't reply, looking like he didn't want to talk more.
"If you don't go home, then where do you want to go?" Wang Baoshan was even more strange when he heard him say that he would not go back.
Sanpi and Du Xiaosan are also very strange, what does this Luo Ying want to do?
"I'm going to go with you to Black Wind Village..."
"It's... Does your father know?" Wang Baoshan looked surprised, and couldn't understand why he was doing this?
Luo Ying looked at him and nodded, answering his question.
"It's okay, but why did your father let you go to Black Wind Village?"
"No matter why, it has nothing to do with you..."Luo Ying smiled coldly, ignoring what Wang Baoshan thought.
When he said this, Wang Baoshan and the three of them didn't want to ask again, the atmosphere was awkward, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
