Volume 1, Dongyi Tribe 23.Be cautious in life and work
Encountering a so-called powerful enemy head-on generally does not have devastating lethality, because people have the instinct to be on guard, and the real enemy is often hidden behind it, and they can always hit with one blow when you are not paying attention...
A cunning beast was lurking in the tree behind Mu San for a long time, quietly following along the way, without making any sound, even if it jumped and climbed in the woods, the spirit ape did not notice anything, let alone Mu San, he did not feel the danger behind him at all.
Although the cunning beast does not have an advantage in size, its superb concealment skills and ability to grasp the timing are the most terrifying, and now it does not dare to act rashly, the huge spirit ape is not good at it at first glance, and it does not want to give up the prey sent to the mouth, so it can only continue to hide, patiently waiting for the most suitable opportunity.
Finally, waiting patiently for the return, the right time appeared, a huge Gu eagle fell from the sky, covering the sky and the sun, the sky was dark, and the sharp horn came straight towards the spirit ape, Mu San didn't have time to look up, he was pushed away by the spirit ape who had been discovered one step earlier, he hurriedly took a few steps back, stood with his back against the tree, took out the longbow, and was ready to fight at any time.
This longbow is obviously a little too light for him now, not too easy, but he doesn't have anything heavier, so he can only use it now, and wait for the opportunity to make a stronger heavy bow, the best material is naturally Jiao, just like the tiger Jiao he once killed, although it is not a real Jiao, but his tendons to make bows and arrows are much stronger than now, but unfortunately at the beginning, his prey did not have the right to use, alas!
Because the spirit ape was on guard in advance, it was not suddenly attacked, and the dangerous instinct made it not dare to take the dive force of the Gu eagle, so it had to roll on the ground, and then get up quickly, first dodge this force, and then look for a fighter.
The Gu Eagle missed, its body flew close to the ground for a while and rose to the sky, a cry like a baby sounded, in this deserted mountain forest, I felt chilling, and the huge wings blew the ground to fall leaves, and the dust was flying.
The spirit ape flexibly faced the direction of the Gu Eagle, grasped a small tree with the thickness of an arm next to it with his right hand, pulled it up with one hand, held the center of the trunk with his left hand, and swept it to the end, sweeping all the branches and leaves next to him, staring at the Gu Eagle's flight trajectory as if facing a great enemy.
The spirit ape constantly adjusted its posture with the flight trajectory of the Gu eagle, facing it all the time, looking up to the sky and roaring, but the Gu eagle was not in a hurry to attack, and a miss made it more cautious, it was a king-like existence in the sky, and it was not so flexible on land, and looking at the size of the spirit ape, it was obviously unwise to attack, it could only keep circling and crying.
Mu San can only do aiming at the moment, he has not yet bent the bow to shoot the eagle eagle, this short bow is not so powerful, this year is more than a year is the practice of swordsmanship, may also be the lack of a good strong bow, just ignore the practice of the bow and arrow, which makes him a little time to wake up, but it is a late repentance, fortunately the spirit ape is by his side, this shortcoming has not been magnified, into a fatal injury.
Time passed little by little, it was a test of the patience of the three parties, looking at the more and more irritable spirit ape, Mu San knew that he couldn't go on like this, he decisively shot the bow and arrow in his hand, and his attention also went with the bow and arrow, not to hit the enemy, just to scare it away, or to scare it.
The assumption is good, the reality is very cruel, what he doesn't know is that the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and the hiding behind him finally moves, not to mention that the bow and arrow shot were knocked away by the Gu eagle wings, and the cunning beast that has been patiently lurking for a long time finally waited for a good opportunity, and flew down from the big tree behind the side, and the sharp nails came out, pounced on Mu San's back, and pressed him to the ground, and Sen Sen's canine teeth bit towards his neck.
All this happened between the lightning and flint, Mu San suddenly felt the wind in the back of his head, at a critical juncture, regardless of the claws on his back, he tried to twist his upper body as much as possible in the process of falling to the ground, and several diagonal nail marks immediately gushed blood, but he also avoided the fatal wound on his neck, and was bitten in the shoulder, Mu San felt the pain of drilling his heart, and the instinctive contraction and protection of his shoulder did not bite the bones apart, if it were not for the strong muscle protection, the whole arm would be useless.
When the spirit ape found out about the crisis here, he didn't care about the threat of the Gu Eagle, he roared again, threw the weapon in his hand sideways, and rushed over with great strides.
The little tree whirled around in the middle of the cunning, and with a "snap" it shattered into two sections, smashing it away from Mu San's body, crashing into the big tree on the side, and picking up a large piece of skin and flesh on Mu San's shoulder, it fell to the ground and screamed, and quickly got up, staring at the rushing figure.
Mu San endured the pain in his body, turned over, pulled out the Taiyun sword, pointed at the cunning beast, and moved his shoulders slightly, not daring to move, fortunately he didn't hurt his bones, what hurt more than his shoulders was the cool breeze in his heart, did this year's study lose the most important caution?
The spirit ape's footsteps did not stop, and it went straight to the cunning with a fierce momentum, but when he saw the cunning beast suddenly turn around, he jumped towards the trunk, climbed to a high place in three or two steps, flashed into the back, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
This action made the spirit ape even more angry, slammed his fists on the ground, and was about to jump up the big tree to pursue, but on the other tree on the side, with a big mouth sly, and there was still a trace of blood on the canine teeth, it came straight to its throat.
It turned out that the cunning beast did not want to escape, but with the help of the cover of the big tree, with its dexterous posture, it changed direction and attacked again, which is worthy of being called cunning cunning!
At the last moment, a good spirit ape, not afraid at all, maybe this is also its opportunity, crisis and opportunity will always coexist, it is thinking in its heart, the cunning speed is too fast, it is not easy to catch up, show the figure and don't go, it stretched out one hand in an instant, accurately grasped the cunning throat that was already in mid-air, and the impact took it back a few steps before stopping.
When the cunning beast struggled hard, squeaked and screamed, and was about to break free, the spirit ape pinched its throat and threw it to the ground vigorously, afraid that it would take the opportunity to escape again, and did not let go, throwing the ground left and right, poor ancient beast cunning, and could only let out bursts of screams.
The spirit ape's move is too ruthless, this is his strength, his human-like flexible arms, coupled with strong strength, is the guarantee of its survival in the mountains and forests.
"Be careful,"
I almost forgot about the Gu Eagle, it is now the last yellow finch, both parties are now unguarded in front of it, seeing the timing when the spirit ape is facing away from it, it dives down again, the speed is several points faster than just now, this time it is no longer a hidden sneak attack, so the strength is more powerful, the eagle claw is hook-shaped, and it goes straight to the head of the spirit ape to grab it.
How could Mu San let the spirit ape suffer the enemy alone, he was always on guard when the Gu eagle was preparing to sneak attack, in addition to a reminder, the person was like an arrow from the string, quickly standing behind the spirit ape, raising the sword with both hands, and slashing towards the claws of the eagle that was caught, he believed that if this sword went down, the Gu eagle would not die or be wasted.
But he still underestimated the flexibility of the Gu Eagle in the air, its body can be incredibly twisted, its claws are even more extendable and retractable, a small angle is slightly adjusted, Mu San's slashing will miss, of course, it also makes its sneak attack almost a millimeter close to the body whistling, and it is impossible to hit the target again, so it can only keep the speed and recoil into the sky again.
The spirit ape was attacked by it, roared, squatted hard with both legs, and was about to chase at the speed of the bullet, but unfortunately looked at the height, and gave up hatefully, the Gu eagle in the air flew too high, just now maybe a trace of it in the morning might catch it, and now unfortunately there is no way to take it, it will not fly, but it can't make it better, so he threw the half-dead cunning at it in annoyance, purely to vent.
For the first time, the cunning beast tasted the feeling of catching the moon like a meteor, poor it kicked around on all fours, in vain, and the speed did not slow down towards the back of the Gu eagle's buttocks, the Gu eagle once again showed its superb flying skills, only to see its wings flutter, the back of the head long eyes like flexible avoidance, and then accelerated again, catching up with the cunning who was tossing in the air, the sharp eagle claws mercilessly grabbed the body of the cunning beast, the claws contracted, tightly grasped the prey, and then threw upwards, as if playing, constantly throwing up and grabbing at the moment when it was about to goIn the end, the crooked beak tore through the cunning throat accurately, ending the terrible screams in the sky.
Mu San who watched it was amazed, the king of the sky, worthy of his name, even if it lets go now, this highly cunning beast will fall into pulp, and it really can't fly or stay on land.
The Gu eagle didn't stop, grabbed the corpse of the cunning beast in the air, and flew into the distance without stopping, grabbing such a big prey didn't affect its flight speed at all, in the end, this is still the prey defeated by the spirit ape, and it was given a full meal for free, mainly because there was no way to get it back, which was a little depressing.
The saddest thing is the cunning beast, which is the existence of the king of the land, originally hidden as a yellow finch, but in the end he lost his life, so he was thrown out as a sundry, and he did not return to the land when he died, and the fate is really difficult to guess.
Watching the Gu Eagle gradually turn into a black spot in the sky, Mu San came back to his senses, his spirit relaxed, and the pain followed, he didn't need to pretend to hide in front of the spirit ape, he couldn't help but exhale in pain, the spirit ape hurriedly turned around to check, the nervous expression moved Mu San very much,
"I'm fine, Brother Ape, it's just that this bite is so ruthless that I almost bit my shoulder off, oops."
The spirit ape grabbed a handful of weeds on the ground, stuffed them into his mouth indiscriminately, and chewed them, it was learning the way Mu San had healed it before, which made Mu San cry and laugh very much, and it was not easy to refuse, so he went with it, the action was heartwarming, and the result was naturally not the most important, of course, to cure these wounds, weeds were impossible, and Wang Yu could recover quickly with the medicine he had prepared.
After a short rest, they set off in full gear, and in order to prevent the Gu Eagle from going and returning, although this possibility is very small, but it is not easy to deal with other big beasts, and Mu San is still injured, it is better to keep a low profile, and avoid it if you can, along the way, the spirit ape will open the way, avoid some dangers, and the eagerness to go home, the journey is really much faster.
I have to say that Mu San's cautious personality is inseparable from his reflection after his dangerous experience, and in the process of growing up along the way, he guarded against arrogance and rashness, coupled with his own unassuming personality, and slowly formed his own unique style of acting.
