Chapter 50: Man-eating Ants
Ngawang fired four arrows at the python with a salvo, and the giant python's giant tail slapped, and the four arrows were deflected to the trunk of the tree. The python instantly became even angrier, and its speed was much faster, and the trees along the way were crushed to the ground by its huge body.
The three of them galloped for a while, and suddenly several tigers jumped out to block the way, and the giant python behind was galloping away, and there were pursuers behind the way at this time, which could be described as a place of death. The python chased after him, and the tiger in front of him was frightened and fled in all directions when he saw the python.
Ah Qing, Ah Wang hurriedly whipped the horse and galloped away, Ah Wang turned around and shot four arrows at the giant python that flew towards him, and the arrows shot through the body of the giant python. But it didn't seem to hurt it, but it angered it even more, and the giant tail swung hard, and a large tree broke away, smashing straight at Ngawang. Ngawang abandoned his horse and jumped on Aqing's horse, and slapped his horse so hard that his horse was smashed to pieces by the trunk of the tree.
At this time, the three of them rode the same horse, and Liu Tingting was considered four people, and the horsepower was extremely difficult. The sound of the giant python chasing after it gradually approached, and the three of them continued to whip their horses desperately and gallop forward. The woods in front of us grew thicker and thicker, and the horses clattered against the trees. Behind you, only the clatter of large trees could be heard, and the sound was getting closer and closer. Ngawang turned his head and saw the giant python chasing after him, and hurriedly pulled Ah Qing and the two to jump onto a big tree, and the giant python pounced on the horse and fell into the broken valley in front of him. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as they jumped off the ground, several fierce leopards surrounded them, staring at the three of them back and forth with fiery red eyes.
The three of them leaned towards a big tree and watched the leopard's every move. One of the leopards pounced on its hind feet, and the rest pounced on it from all sides. Yaojia threw herself on the ground, jumped to her feet, and slashed her twin knives through the belly of a leopard that had pounced on her. Only a roar was heard, and the leopard was cut in the abdomen with a long gap, and fell to the ground struggling to die. Seeing this, the four leopards pounced on Yaojia together. Each of the three arrows pierces a leopard and pushes one side. Yaojia spun and jumped, counterattacked, stabbed the other leopard in the back with two knives, and then flipped her legs and kicked the leopard away. At this time, Ngawang and Aqing also killed the rest of the leopards and leaned against each other. Looking at the broken valley, an isolated mountain stands proudly in the middle of the broken valley, and a bottomless broken valley encloses this mountain in it, shrouded in mist, flickering and flickering, as if it is close at hand, but it seems to be out of reach. The three of them couldn't help but look at each other blankly, at a loss.
"Click" Several cracking sounds pulled back the scattered thoughts of the three people, and when they looked back, the overwhelming three-step poisonous snakes surrounded the three of them, crawling over.
Ngawang took out a bag of realgar powder, sprinkled it in an arc around the three of them, and sprinkled a few handfuls on the surrounding ground, on the branches of trees, and on the grass. The serpents slowed down, and many stopped around, staring at each other.
Ah Qing said: "This is not a solution, when the smell of realgar is gone, they will rush up." ”
Yaojia said: "It's a pity that there are too many, otherwise grab a few and go back to make medicine for Daddy." ”
Ah Qing said angrily: "When is it, you are still thinking about this." ”
Ngawang took out a ball of hemp rope, tied one end to a large tree trunk, and tied the other end to a thick arrow, and shot it towards a towering ancient tree on the flying mountain. It seemed to be close at hand, but it was far away, and the bow and arrow did not know how far it flew before falling into the broken valley with the hemp rope. Ngawang was surprised: "Impossible, right?"
Ah Qing looked at the fluttering Feilai Mountain, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's much farther away." ”
Yaojia said: "Why is this mountain so strange, you can see it clearly, you can't see it clearly, it doesn't seem to exist at all, right?"
A gust of wind swept by, and the realgar powder on the branches was scattered, and the three-step snakes climbed up the branches together and surrounded the three of them. Ngawang grabbed the hemp rope and said, "Hurry up and slide down the hemp rope with me, this time it will be a death to advance and retreat, so it is better to let it go." "Slide down the hemp rope. Yaojia followed and slid down, and A-Qing went down last.
Ngawang soon reached the end of the hemp rope, and when he looked down, it seemed like an endless lake glowing with white light, but it seemed that he saw an endless abyss, and the cold war continued. Suddenly hit by Yaojia, who was sliding too fast, hurriedly grabbed the hemp rope, but was hit by Ah Qing slipping above, and the three of them took off the hemp rope and fell down with shouts. I don't know how long it took to fall, but Ngawang seemed to see the branch, which became clearer and clearer, and he was ready to drag the branch. I fell for a long time, dizzy, and suddenly felt that I had touched a branch, grabbed it with one hand, and grabbed Yaojia with the other hand and threw her towards the trunk. grabbed Ah Qing again, but Ah Qing's body was too heavy, the branch broke, and the two fell. Suddenly, a rebound stopped the fall, and it turned out that Ah Qing grabbed a rattan around the tree with one hand. The two of them looked down, and their hands and feet suddenly became weak. The endless white light spreading along the foot of the broken valley is not water but a mountain of white bones and skeletons, no wonder Ngawang seems to see the lake with white light.
Yaojia climbed down the trunk of the tree, climbed to the place where Ah Qing and the two stopped, cut a rattan, tied one end to the trunk, and threw the other end to Ah Wang. Ngawang caught the rattan, let go of Aqing's hand, and fell down, smashing into the trunk of the tree, shaking the stars. He held on to the trunk of the tree and untied the rattan. Yaojia pulled the rattan and threw it to Ah Qing, who caught the rattan and fell. Ah Wang hugged Ah Qing, and the two collided, and there was a beautiful feeling.
Yaojia saw that the two of them were out of danger, climbed under the tree, and when they came to the two of them, they saw that the two were still hugging each other tightly and kissing, and couldn't help but snort, and said: "When is it, I will find a good place to make love later, the young lady will be tired of you if she is not poisoned." ”
Ah Qing came back to his senses, grabbed the trunk of the tree, climbed under the tree, and said, "I'm afraid not only is she going to die, but we won't live long." ”
Yaojia climbed down and said, "Do you talk like that, we won't live long for anything, I'm still young and don't want to die." ”
Ngawang suddenly shouted, "Don't go to the ground!"
Ah Qing looked at the ground, was so frightened that he hurriedly climbed up, and shouted: "Man-eating ants, all man-eating ants." ”
Yaojia was so frightened by her that she lay on the trunk of the tree and didn't dare to move more, and muttered in her mouth: "I hate ants the most, what should I do?"
Ngawang climbed in front of Yaojia and looked down, and the ground was densely packed with man-eating ants crawling back and forth towards the pile of skeletons. He looked at the ants and saw that the python had crashed into the stone and died, wrapped in man-eating ants. After a while, I saw that the man-eating ants dispersed, and the huge python was only a skeleton left, and its whole body immediately became numb.
A team of man-eating ants smelled the flesh of the trio and crawled up the tree. Seeing this, Yaojia hurriedly climbed up, Ah Wang wanted to die and die first, and he must not watch Ah Qing and the two of them be eaten by ants first. And he went down to the tree. Ah Qing hurriedly shouted: "Ah Wang, what are you doing, you don't want to die, come up, come up!"
Yaojia also shouted: "Brother Awang, what are you doing, what should you do if you die Sister Aqing?"
Ah Wang's tears couldn't help but burst into tears, and the countless debts in his heart suddenly rose, and he closed his eyes and prayed that he would be a cow and a horse in the next life to repay his debts to Ah Qing. Hearing Ah Qing's crying and Yaojia's shouting vaguely in his ears, he didn't dare to open his eyes, let alone hear the voices of the two clearly, because he didn't want to make himself weak and timid. After a long time, I couldn't hear the shouts of Ah Qing and the others, and I didn't feel any pain, so I hurriedly opened my eyes and drove away. Seeing that the man-eating ants climbed to their feet and retreated, piling up a high pile under the tree, and seeing a purple whirlwind around his body, he looked up at Ah Qing and Yaojia, and saw that both of them had their eyes closed tightly, not daring to look down.
Ngawang didn't know where this strange purple qi came from, and he walked around, but he didn't see anything strange, and he was puzzled in his heart. But when he saw that he was not dead at this time, it was obviously because of the purple qi, and the man-eating ants did not dare to come up, so he became happy and shouted: "Ah Qing, I am not dead, the man-eating ants dare not come up, you see where the purple qi comes from." ”
The two of them thought that he had already turned into a skeleton and did not dare to witness the tragic situation, but now when they heard his shout, they both hurriedly opened their eyes, and when they saw that he was okay, they both smiled with joy.
Ah Qing saw that the purple qi was constantly coming out of the sack on Ah Wang's back, and said, "What happened when it came out of your sack, what happened to the low." Do you have any treasures in your bag?" Yaojia saw Ran Ziqi and thought it looked so good, her fear suddenly disappeared, and she smiled happily when she looked at Ziqi.
Ngawang untied the sack and took out Liu Tingting. I saw that Liu Tingting's whole body was swirling with purple qi, and the purple qi was also revolving around him. He was also strange, he had never heard of people emitting purple qi, which was a great adventure in his life. He grabbed the trunk of the tree with one hand, hugged Liu Tingting with the other, and slowly pushed her closer to the man-eating ants, only to see the purple qi on Liu Tingting's body bypassed, and the man-eating ants fled away one after another. Ngawang laughed and said: "It turned out that she saved us, it's okay, the man-eating ants are afraid of her, so we won't dare to approach the man-eating ants if we hold her." The two stared at him blankly, unable to believe his words.
Ngawang jumped to the ground with Liu Tingting in his arms, and the man-eating ants around him suddenly spread out a distance of three meters, not daring to take a step forward. But countless man-eating ants climbed the ancient tree one after another and ran towards Ah Qing and the others. Yaojia hurriedly jumped to Ah Wang's side, and Ah Qing also jumped down and hugged Ah Wang.
The countless man-eating ants around them were still rolling in, stopping at a distance of three meters from the three of them, and piled up more than a meter high for a while. Ah Wang held Ah Qing with one hand and Liu Tingting with the other.
Yaojia followed Awang's side, looked at the tall pile of ants beside him, and scolded: "Aren't you very powerful, why don't you dare to take a step forward, will you die? ”
The place where the three of them had just walked was already filled with man-eating ants, and the man-eating ants in front of the three of them fled one after another. Just walk slowly up the hill. The mountain is shrouded in mist, no sky can be seen, the ground is naturally dim, surrounded by ancient trees, dense jungle, and eerie. The man-eating ants moved with the three of them, reluctant to leave, and where the man-eating ants crossed, some animal skeletons flashed.
The three of them walked for more than an hour, and the man-eating ants gradually became fewer and disappeared. The purple qi on Liu Tingting's body also disappeared, and everything returned to normal. Ngawang carried Liu Tingting on his back and continued to climb up the mountain. Yaojia kept looking back to see if the man-eating ants had really retreated. They climbed hard for more than an hour, but they were all very tired, and they sat down on a stone slab to rest. Ah Wang took out the dry cakes, handed them to Ah Qing and Yao Jia respectively, and said, "When I went out, I thought I was alone, and I didn't bring much, but fortunately, I bought some more in Qiubei City last night." ”
