Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Bear
The junior brother flicked his tongue, pinched his chin and thought about it seriously: "This direction is good, get the mother-in-law!" Hey, it seems that I haven't seen you for a few days, senior brother, you have already left the school, and there is nothing to teach you for my brother in this regard, only one sentence, cough cough...... The sky is thundering and the earth is on fire, the river demon of Pagoda Town, take care of your body! ”
I see that the more he talks, the more he doesn't have a proper line, it is estimated that he has not been educated for a few days, and his flesh is itchy. I glanced around, and was about to copy something handy, when my afterglow suddenly swept to the porcelain bowl with a black background placed next to the bed, and there was still the little water I had just drunk, which just reflected my shadow.
I was stunned, picked up the porcelain bowl and looked down for a while, the more I looked at it, the cooler my heart became, damn it, how did the bald head in this water look so similar to Lao Tzu, my mother, even the handsomeness on that face is exactly the same! I asked my junior brother, "Have you been here?" ”
The junior brother sneered, took the weapon in my hand, and said, "Uncle Ge is busy and doesn't have time to come, but Miss Yanzi has been here...... Hehe, razor shaved, is the craft okay? As he spoke, the junior brother touched my head with his hand, "Well, it feels good!" But ah, senior brother, don't blame others, if you saw what you looked like three days ago, you still think that our Uncle Ge is dear! The carbon hair on that end, tsk, and the sour smell ...... ****, I really can't do it. ”
"Alright, alright! Stop! I slapped his hand away, and the matter has come to this, and I know in my heart that even if I have a thousand or ten thousand unwillingness, I can't change the facts. But as soon as I saw my current appearance, I was still angry in my heart, so I asked my junior brother to throw that bowl away.
At this time, a person suddenly ran in from outside, whispered a few words in the local dialect, and pulled the junior brother to walk out, pointing to the big ravine behind him as he walked.
I was stunned, could it be that someone found it? Hurriedly put on his coat and came out, and happened to meet the swallow who came out of another room, and also hurriedly walked in the direction of the back mountain, still holding a long lift in his hand, and the expression on his face was very serious.
I subconsciously touched my head, scooped up the hat on the back and put it on. The swallow glanced at me, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she was laughing at me in her heart. Although I was holding back the fire, I thought that she was still my savior, and I didn't care about her for the time being, and I asked, "What's wrong?" Did someone find it? ”
Yanzi quickly exchanged a few words with the fellow in the local dialect, and then turned to us and said, "When the fellow was hunting this morning, they found a collapsed stone pit, and there seemed to be someone buried in it, let us go and confirm whether it is our person." At this time, the fellow said again, and Yanzi translated: "The fellow also said that the mountains behind this are all primeval forests, let us beware of wild beasts." ”
I paused, turned around, picked up two usable machetes on the edge of the courtyard wall, quickly followed, and gave one to my junior brother. The fellow carried two modified wood-splitting axes on his back, and the handles were about twenty centimeters longer. As soon as I turned my head, I found that there were only four of us, and I asked my junior brother, "Why are there only a few of us?" What about the search team? ”
The junior brother snorted and scolded: "These dogs, as soon as the sister-in-law walks on the front foot, they will withdraw on the back foot, damn it, they will withdraw faster than Lao Jiang!" Swallow's eyebrows moved, and he probably thought of something messy.
I blushed, and hurriedly gave my junior brother a look, and my junior brother understood, and stopped talking about us along the way, only picking up some meat jokes to amuse. As we spoke, we had climbed two mountain slopes, both at an average altitude of more than two thousand meters.
It is now sunrise, and the dark mountains cut the sea of clouds into ever-changing patterns, which from a distance look like ink paintings with light to dark colors; An hour ago, Chaoyang was a shy child who only dared to emerge from behind the mountains with a silvery head, but now he has transformed into the master of all things, giving the light, heat, and nutrients needed by the mountains, trees, rivers, meadows, animals, humans, and so on, and we have all become its children now.
This is the first time I have watched a sunrise in its entirety, shuttling through the primeval forest where the ecology has not been damaged by humans, crossing the lofty mountains and mountains with only birds singing and flowers fragrant and lush forests and bamboos, my soul seems to have been the most primitive, cleanest and most civilized in nature, and it is also the most sublime baptism.
As the old saying goes, blessings are incomparable, disasters are not one-way, and things must be reversed, all of which make sense, and you can't be convinced.
Just when the three of us city-dwellers were bathed in the morning light, each cultivating his great feelings like poetry, the fellow suddenly drew his axe, said something in his mouth, and then arched his back, staring at a tall dense forest in front of him with two eagle-eyes, and his feet kept moving, and he could see that he was very nervous.
Among the three of us, Yanzi was the only one who could understand the local dialect, so when I and my junior brother only realized that there might be some emergency, Yanzi realized the mortal danger, so her face turned white all of a sudden, she held the weapon firmly in her hand, and her voice trembled: "He said be careful, there may be a bear in front of her!" ”
I was stunned for a moment, looked at my junior brother for a while, and listened carefully, as if I really heard a heavy panting, and for some reason there was a faint expectation in my heart. All I know about the bear comes from the documentaries on TV, most of which are about its appearance and habits, such as its round head and ears, its large size, its thick and short limbs, its claws under its claws, and its mouth with sharp teeth; Its eyes are small, its nose is narrow and long, and it mainly relies on smell to identify foreign objects and directions; It is a mammal, can swim, is good at climbing trees, likes to eat bamboo shoots, young leaves and other vegetarian food, and occasionally eats some fish, frogs, carrion and so on.
I later found out that my understanding was actually very, very one-sided and superficial, but at that time, this was already all I knew about the creature "dog bear", so much so that I half-jokingly asked a very stupid question: "The dog bear, do you eat people?" ”
The swallow glanced at me, tilted her head, and said, "You can try it." But the expression on my face was clearly scolding me for "not knowing whether to live or die". I noticed that her face was covered with sweat, and the clothes on her chest had been wet with the sweat that had slipped down her neck, sticking to her chest, as if she had just taken a shower, and her ten fingers kept cocking up and putting down, as if she was afraid that the sweat on her palms would slip.
The younger brother is a student of geography, and he always has great curiosity about some strange phenomena in nature and those unusual creatures, plus he is not proficient in learning, most of the professional knowledge is lacking, and his understanding of the bear is estimated to be not as much as mine, so he also behaves fearlessly, puffing twice, repeatedly rolling up his sleeves, and his eyes are shining with a strange light, as if he really wants to catch the bear alive.
Yanzi and the fellow were probably deeply shocked by the "ignorance of life and death" between me and my junior brother, and automatically made way for my junior brother. The junior brother nodded and said, "You're welcome, the fruits of the revolution belong to all of us!" "A cat's waist, into a man-high dense forest, gone.
Two or three seconds later, a shout suddenly came from inside: "Run! Fuck, run! ”
