Winter is coming, and it is snowing heavily, and between the heavens and the earth, it is snow-white and covered in silver. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the mountains of the far west, an old farmer was walking with difficulty, holding a shovel to remove snow to identify the direction.

As he walked, he was still muttering:

"This hell weather! It was fine in the morning, but it snowed heavily at noon. ”

Suddenly a gust of wind smashed into the snowflakes, and the old farmer felt like he was about to be overturned. Rubbing his frozen red hands, he tightened the fur coat on his body.

It was also the bad luck of this old farmer, who would come out to work tomorrow and tomorrow, but not long after he started working, it snowed heavily, and now he was deep in the mountains and old forests, and the snow was so heavy that the old farmer couldn't even find the direction to go home.

It was so cold that he felt like his feet were freezing. No, I have to go back immediately, otherwise the old woman will talk again. The old farmer thought to himself.

"Whoa!"

Suddenly, a huge beast roared. The old farmer was so frightened that he almost collapsed on the ground.

"What the hell is this, so loud, who is it to scare?" The old farmer muttered.

The mountain where the old farmer is located should actually be regarded as a mountain range, and the foot of the mountain is close to the place where people live, and there are never any fierce beasts, and occasionally one or two stupid bears run down, and they only bring rations to the villagers. So although the old farmer was taken aback, he was not very afraid.

"Roar!" Another loud roar came from a distance, but it was much louder than before.

But then there was another roar of the beast, and each time it became louder and louder.

"Whew! Roar! ”

The old peasant's face turned pale in an instant, because he knew that the louder and louder voices probably meant that the beasts were approaching him.

The old farmer hurriedly ran behind a nearby tree, untied the basket on his body, tightened his grip on the shovel in his hand, and looked cautiously from behind the tree.

Looking along the old farmer's line of sight, except for some sparse green pines that have not fallen with snow, there is only a white expanse, and nothing can be seen. But the old peasant did not let up, for the roar of the beast was getting louder and louder.

A slight tremor of the ground came from the soles of the feet, but you could feel that the tremors were gradually increasing.

Then the needles of the green pine, which can be seen to the naked eye, begin to shake, and this shaking starts from a subtle point and then suddenly intensifies. The snow on the trees began to fall one after another, and it felt like the snow was three points heavier.

The old peasant was terrified, covered in cold sweat, holding a shovel in his hand, his knuckles were white, his lips were cold and blue, and his teeth chattered up and down.

Suddenly, a huge head rushed out of the heavy snow, this head was amazingly large, two stories high, its face was covered with black hair, and even its facial features could not be seen, and with this head came a strong smell of savagery.

"Mom!" Where had the old peasant seen such a battle, he spread his feet and ran.

He thought it would be wolves or other beasts, but he thought of using the dried herbs in the basket to make a fire, and use the fire to scare away the beasts. But I didn't expect the head that came out to be so terrifying, it was more than five meters high, and the old farmer had never seen this kind of thing in his nearly sixty years of life. He couldn't help but remember what the old man in the village said when he was young, there were actually many big monsters on the mountain, and he didn't care about it when he was young and vigorous, thinking that no matter how big it was, it was still a tiger? There's something terrible. It wasn't until now that the old farmer realized that he was wrong after seeing the head of this giant beast, such a terrifying giant beast, I am afraid that ten tigers could be torn directly. Not to mention the beasts behind it that haven't been seen yet.

The old farmer stumbled and ran on the snow, but because he was walking on a mountain road, the slope was still up, and the herd came quickly, the old farmer was soon cornered.

He leaned against the bottom of a big tree hugged by two people, panting, looking at the rushing beasts in despair, and smiled bitterly. I can't imagine that I have lived for most of my age, I have worked hard all day, and I have to die in this place when I am old!

Seeing the beasts getting closer and closer, the terrifying beast moved and brought up a cloud of snow and dust, and in the vast snow, the old farmer felt that he was not very afraid again, because he could not see anything, and his vision was full of white snow flakes.

That's fine, the province is still scared when he dies. The old peasant thought miserably.

Suddenly, he vaguely heard a sound from the big tree he was leaning on, because his vision was no longer effective, and there was nothing in his ears except the roar of the beast, but at this time, his sense of hearing became extremely sharp.

He stood up by the tree, turned around, looked around, and put his ear to the tree and listened.

"Wow!"

Sure enough, there was movement! The old farmer hurriedly walked around the tree, and found that there was a tree hole in the position where the tree was two people taller than the root, and this tree hole was on the opposite side of the old farmer's back just now, and it was in such a high position, so the old farmer did not find it at first.

Sensing that the beast's roar was getting closer and closer, almost only a few hundred feet away from him, the old farmer gritted his teeth, pinned his shovel to his waist, and then rolled along the tree a few times into the hollow.

"Wow, wow, wow!"

The old peasant had just come down from the entrance of the cave, and before he could settle down, he was startled by the sound again, and when he looked back, the cave was pitch black, and the space was not large, and there was no one there.

In an instant, the old farmer felt a little chilly in his backbone, don't just leave the wolf's den and enter the tiger's den, the old farmer thought to himself.

"Woo wow wow wow wow!" It's the creepy voice again. This time, however, the old farmer noticed that the sound was coming from a position near his feet.

The old farmer had the courage to kick it with his foot, but he felt like he had kicked a soft object like cotton.

"Wow, wow, wow!" It's this sound again, and the old farmer finally distinguishes it this time, it's a baby's voice. Although he is old and buried half of his body in the loess, and has no children under his knees, he has never eaten pork, hasn't he seen a pig run?

At first, the old farmer was quite frightened, so he didn't recognize it, but how many voices were there, and no matter how stupid the old farmer was, he recognized that it was a child's cry.

So the old farmer bent down and groped on the ground, and started with a small foot, so the old farmer put the baby upside down and lifted it up, and the result was, of course, the baby cried even more, which frightened the old farmer, you must know that there are many fierce beasts outside,

This baby doesn't know who threw it here so ruthlessly, but don't give our grandchildren here because of crying.

Thinking of the old farmer, he hurriedly supported the baby's back with both hands, and then the old farmer found that the baby was naked, without clothes, in this cold weather, he didn't freeze to death here, and the old farmer didn't think so much, so he quickly stuffed the baby in his chest coat, and left a head out.

With his left hand, he picked up his shovel and covered the baby's mouth with his right hand to prevent it from crying.

There was silence in the cave for a moment, and the old peasant listened with his ear to the wall of the tree, and suddenly saw that the roar of the beasts was so close that he could even hear the rapid gasps of the beasts.

How good is this, how good is this.

The old farmer was now so focused on the beast outside that he didn't notice that the child in his arms had stopped crying, and was silent, as if dead.

"Bang!" There was a loud noise from the tree wall, and it must have been a beast that had hit the tree. The old farmer looked at the gray sky outside the tree hole in horror and was at a loss for what to do.

He could sense that the beasts should be passing through this place by now, but on the one hand the beasts were too dense, and on the other hand, they were so large that occasionally one or two would crash directly into the trees.

"Bang" "Bang" The tree wall finally produced some cracks, and then the cracks expanded rapidly, almost in the blink of an eye, only a "click" was heard, and the whole tree hole was directly split in half from the middle.

The old peasant looked at the huge beast shadow on his face with a frightened expression, and fell to the ground softly. The huge beast palm reflected in the pupils was infinitely enlarged.

With a wry smile, the old farmer looked down and looked at the child in his arms again, just now it was dim in the cave and he couldn't see clearly, but now that the tree hole was destroyed, the old farmer could also see the baby's face.

However, even though the old farmer was already desperate at this time, he was still shocked when he saw the baby in his arms. The baby in his arms, one eye was pale white and appeared to be blind, with a hideous cross wound on his forehead.

The point is that now the child is motionless and lifeless with his eyes wide open.

"Poor boy!" The old farmer sighed.

With a "bang", the old farmer was instantly thrown to the ground by a strange beast with an inverted fang, and the abdomen was trampled almost instantly, and blood was splashed on the ground.

But the old farmer did not immediately perceive the pain, because the pain was so great that he would faint almost instantaneously in the next second, which was a kind of protection for his own consciousness by the human body.

Seeing the rapid approach of another beast's paw that was close at hand, the old peasant knew that he was dead.

Hey, forget it if I die, this child is so pitiful, why should he die with me, God, if I can exchange my life for a life, it will be the last good thing I will do before I die.

Almost as soon as the old farmer had this idea, he felt a huge pain in his chest, a pain he had never experienced before, and the lower half of his body was crushed, and his consciousness would be instantly unconscious, so as to protect his consciousness from collapsing due to the severe pain. But this severe pain could not be avoided, as if to endure the harshest punishment from hell, the old peasant's consciousness was almost instantly crushed. At the same time, the beast's giant claw fell.

With a "squeak", the snow was instantly dyed red.

The beasts didn't care, they still ran forward frantically. The roar spread to all corners of the mountains, and tigers, cheetahs, small squirrels, and almost all the wild beasts were crawling on the ground, shivering.

At the same time, the beast with the inverted fang, which had just trampled the old farmer to death, suddenly looked back in horror at the snowfield it had just passed.

I saw that the place was covered with blood, all kinds of organs, and flesh and blood everywhere, which were guessed by the beasts that came after. But in the middle of that snowfield, there was a sudden sound of a baby crying "wow".

I saw a baby lying naked in a blood-soaked animal skin coat, crying.

Almost the moment they heard the baby's cry, all the beasts stopped, and if the beasts had a look, they must have been terrified by now, and they did not dare to move, staring intently at the baby in the fur coat.

Gradually, the blood stains on the animal skin coat and the surrounding blood stains magically disappeared, and even the blood stains in the snow slowly faded. It was at this time that the baby stopped crying, and with a satisfied smile on his face, closed his eyes peacefully, as if he were asleep.

And the moment the baby closed his eyes, the beasts fled in all directions at an almost life-threatening speed. Don't dare to go any closer to that place.

In the middle of the night, the fluttering snow dust settled, and the heavy snow did not know when it would stop. There is a strange silence between heaven and earth, and everything is clear.

Only the dense paw prints on the snow seemed to bear witness to the terrifying picture of Fang Cai. And in the center of the countless footprints, a gray-black animal skin coat was prominently spread on the ground, with a slight bulge in the middle of the coat, and the baby lay quietly inside.

There was an innocent smile on the baby's face, and he breathed evenly.

Voices can be heard in the distance.
