Chapter 333: A Little Black Shadow in the Mountains
Originally, a few people followed Ouyang Lei to see the fruit tree and pick some more red fruits by the way, but they didn't expect to see several small black shadows under the tree.
Because the sky was very dark and they did not dare to approach, people did not see the true appearance of those black shadows.
I don't know, is it the terrible wild monkey that the guide Aza said?!
At this time, Zhou Xiaolong, his mind was full of doubts, he had already opened his yin and yang eyes, and when his eyes moved, he didn't see anything wrong, but when Zhou Xiaolong inadvertently looked at the branch, he was scared......
During the day, nothing abnormal was found in this forest at all, but at night, under the cold moonlight, Zhou Xiaolong found that a dark red oval mist actually appeared on the few remaining red fruits on the big black tree, and the mist condensed together, forming a grimace the size of a steamed bun.
The grimaces flickered and floated in the night sky, identical to the faces on the pits, but more twisted and terrifying.
These illusory grimaces, after Zhou Xiaolong saw them, he felt a chill in his heart.
At this time, Gu Lili behind her whispered to Ouyang Lei, "You...... You kid seems to be in trouble?! ”
Ouyang Lei asked: "Ah, why do you say that?!" ”
Gu Lili said again: "Ouyang Lei, the fruits you picked seem to be raised by these things, if they knew that you stole other people's fruits, would they fight with you, do you say you are in trouble?!" ”
Ouyang Lei was frightened, "Ah, what should I do, why don't you run away!" ”
Jin Hui slowly retreated and whispered to everyone, "That's right, it's better to get out of here immediately, lest those things be discovered......"
Zhou Xiaolong felt that Jin Hui was right, in this barren mountain and wild range, the enemy didn't know anything about the situation, so it was best not to cause trouble.
And, judging by the anxious expressions of those little things, even if they weren't the legendary wild monkeys, they probably attached a lot of importance to those red fruits.
Once you know that it is Ouyang Lei and these outsiders who have stolen other people's fruits, you have to rush over to play with your life, if it is really a wild monkey, this is as simple as licking your face......
The best solution now is for people to leave this place of right and wrong without knowing it, and flee back to the camp first.
In this way, a few people quietly left the area, but there was no incident.
After returning to the camp without danger, everyone gathered around Aza and asked, are those little things you saw just now the kind of wild monkeys?!
Aza listened with some disbelief, because the wild monkeys were not so easy to see.
Could it be that these people are so lucky today that they not only saw wild monkeys, but they were not discovered by wild monkeys?!
Although I saw those little black shadows just now, it made people panic, but now they are in the belly of this deep mountain, which is considered the bottom of a dilemma, and it is impossible to go back, and if they want to continue to move forward, it is completely dark at this time, and it is even more impossible.
In the end, Jin Hui and Professor Cui discussed, and everyone should stay in the camp overnight, and set off at dawn tomorrow to leave here.
Several people were hungry and ate somen cooked in an alcohol oven, with pickles and beef jerky.
After eating, Aza had already lit a large bonfire, the fire was very bright and bright, if there were really wild monkeys nearby, probably those things would not dare to act rashly when they saw the fire.
Jin Hui began to arrange people to keep vigil, in the field, the vigil is very important, Gu Lili and Professor Cui do not count, Jin Hui arranged Zhou Xiaolong and Ouyang Lei to be the first shift, Azha to be the second shift, and Jin Hui himself was the last to be on duty.
The night watch time was arranged, and everyone didn't talk much, so they went to sleep.
The night attendants of this first shift are Zhou Xiaolong and Ouyang Lei, because the night is still shallow, and ordinary people are not very sleepy, and the most difficult thing is the second half of the night, so this shift is also the easiest.
Zhou Xiaolong knew that this was also deliberately arranged by Jin Hui, and Jin Hui left the last shift to himself, because the deeper the night, the more dangerous it might be in this forest.
Perhaps in Jin Hui's eyes, Zhou Xiaolong and Ouyang Lei are just two college students, and they must have no experience in night duty when they come out with Professor Cui for the first time.
Jin Hui was not very relieved, so it was more appropriate to arrange the two of them to keep vigil at an earlier time.
Soon, the vigil began.
Zhou Xiaolong and Ouyang Lei sat back to back, with a big blanket draped over their bodies.
Although it is relatively cold in this mountain, there is a big bonfire around it, which is burning vigorously, and the temperature is still very high.
At first, Ouyang Lei took a flashlight and shone around very seriously, looking very vigilant, but it didn't take long for the little fat man to hold back, and he dozed off.
Zhou Xiaolong called Ouyang Lei a few times, but it was useless, this little fat man couldn't wake up no matter how he screamed in the end, and he snored.
Zhou Xiaolong didn't care about Ouyang Lei, just let him rest, Zhou Xiaolong himself naturally couldn't sleep, his eyes widened, mainly staring at the direction where those little black shadows appeared, almost without blinking.
……
The night was quiet, and only the insects around could be heard, and there was nothing that sounded too dangerous.
In this way, about two hours passed, Zhou Xiaolong heard a sound behind him, and he hurriedly looked back to see that it was the guide Aza who got out of the tent and walked over to the fire.
Zhou Xiaolong turned around and said softly, "Brother Aza, what's the matter, you can't sleep?" ”
Aza sat next to Zhou Xiaolong, took out a cigarette case, handed Zhou Xiaolong a cigarette and said, "Smoke a cigarette, will you have one too?" ”
Zhou Xiaolong shook his head and said, "I don't smoke." ”
Then, Aza sat next to Zhou Xiaolong and smoked, and stopped talking.
Zhou Xiaolong looked nearby, there was nothing abnormal, so he stretched his waist and relaxed.
Aza finished smoking a cigarette in a few moments, stepped on the end of the cigarette, stood up and prepared to go back to the tent, but he only took two steps before he half-stopped and looked back into the mountains, looking a little panicked......
Zhou Xiaolong noticed the strangeness of Aza, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Brother Aza, what are you looking at?!" ”
As soon as the words fell, in this night, it seemed that the sound of the insects around them stopped screaming all of a sudden.
You know, the sound of insects only weakens or stops when it is disturbed, which means that something seems to be moving towards the camp in a nearby area......
Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaolong picked up the flashlight and shone it around.
It's a pity that the forest is too dense, and Zhou Xiaolong can't see anything except trees and weeds.
Listening to the insect chirping over there and returning to normal, Aza exhaled and comforted Zhou Xiaolong, more like comforting himself and said, "It's okay, it may be a small animal like a hare passing by......"
