Chapter 49: The Law of Survival
The law of the jungle, whether in the jungle or in society, is an immutable truth.
In fact, the jungle system is a condensed society.
As the saying goes, there are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't want it.
On this day, Guanglong and Yipinlan went into the depths of the jungle to look for wood, and unknowingly walked far away. Suddenly, there was a large ~ open area without trees in front of me, and it was a circular building made of huge stones. There is a sky-high stone tower in the center of the building, which is like a needle of the town sea. Looking at the degree of damage to the stone steps and stone pillars, I don't know how many years have passed. This is clearly a trace of history.
Who built it deep in the jungle, and if it looks like the structure is a temple?
Fortunately, this place is not the domain of their father, and Guanglong and Yipinlan are called into the building. Guanglong touched the stone pillars that stood tall, and the potholes on them were full of grinding of sand.
Guanglong has always been fascinated by ancient buildings. How did the ancients erect a stone that weighed more than a thousand catties, and why didn't it fall down after thousands of years of wind and rain? In the end, it is all admirable that the ancients possessed technology and wisdom that are difficult for people to match today.
In addition to the stone pillars and stone steps, the most eye-catching thing is the stone tower in the center. The discerning Pingran is already working on it.
The stone tower is only about 4 meters high, and there are some irregular round holes on it, making it look like a giant flute.
"When the wind blows through the stone tower, it makes some kind of sound. It has to do with the calendar or the sacrifice. ”
Guanglong observed that there were a total of 13 through round holes on the stone tower, and their aperture just coincided with the black and white balls. Could it be a coincidence?
He explained his thoughts, and Yi Pinlan filled the round hole with the black ball according to his words, and it succeeded.
The loaded black ball did not stay, and began to slide, and the sound of air movement was heard as it rolled. It turns out that the hole is not horizontal, but angled. The black ball rolls for a while, stops in the hole on the other side, and the sound stops.
There will be a sound, indicating that the hole wall is not smooth and potholed?
However, the stone tower did not react, and Guanglong looked at Yi Pinlan in confusion. Maybe 13 spheres fill in and play the melody at the same time?
Yi Pinlan said that it should be no problem to be able to play the melody. Depending on the tilt angle of the 13 holes, it is not difficult to design different sounds according to the airflow. As for the meaning of sound, it may be that different rhythms represent a certain religious or sacrificial meaning.
The ethereal sound coming from the black ball seemed to reach the gods. This ultrasound-like radiation range affects the entire jungle, including the temple's guardians.
"Be careful!" As soon as Guanglong heard the friction sound of running on the grass, Yi Pinlan pushed him away.
The moment Guanglong fell, a dark shadow passed through him and Yipinlan. What's so fast?
Guanglong looked at it intently, and it turned out to be a human face. It resembles a giant dog, with mottled red hair on its back, a lion's mane on its head, and the most eerie of all, a human-like face. The face was round and angry, with its nostrils facing upward, and a large mouth of white teeth dripping with saliva, vowing to tear to shreds the enemies who invaded its territory.
Yi Pinlan quickly retrieved the black ball, and at the same time opened her bow and aimed her arrow at the human face.
Although the human face is strong and heavy, the speed is not slow. It was not afraid of a Pinlan bow and arrow, and the two arrows at close range did not threaten, and then it rushed to Guanglong with a left and right jump.
Guanglong is not a vegetarian either, and he set up a different dragon knife to swoop in the face of the people who pounced. The moment it fell, Guanglong stabbed its soft stomach with a knife. The sharp claws of the human face in front of him were still glowing with cold light, and he couldn't take care of many of them.
The human face is not covered, it leaps in the air to avoid the attack of Guanglong, and lands steadily.
was only stunned by the kung fu, and Yipinlan shot an arrow in vain, which shocked the human face and retreated again and again. Guanglong was still laughing at its lack of cleverness, it had already stepped into the air with the help of a stone tower, and suddenly the harrier turned over as if it had fallen from the sky. Guanglong and Yipinlan jumped left and right, and it pounced again.
Seeing that they had no intention of leaving, the human face pounced on the seemingly weak Yipinlan again.
Guanglong is not worried about Yipinlan, she can always magically turn the corner. At this moment, there was a noise in the depths of the jungle, and a group of animals were running towards them. Guanglong was taken aback, is it a reinforcement with a human face.
"I'll do it too!" With the crisp cheerful sound of silver bells, they were pleasantly surprised to see Xiaoling. She rode a huge wild boar and squeaked on her shoulder.
The wild boar was sturdy and could be ridden by one person, but I don't know what means Hickling used to tame it. The boar caught a glimpse of the murderous human face and screamed to keep a distance. One of its four little short legs braked sharply and almost fell, Xiao Ling stumbled and pounced on the pig's back, and Chu Chu threw several meters forward due to inertia, and the scene was extremely funny.
Rao is too many people to take advantage, the wild boar is afraid that it is obviously a burden, and Xiaoling is even more powerless, which will only add to the chaos. The human face also changed from the horror just now to a contemptuous sneer.
For their extreme distrust, Xiao Ling smiled slightly, "You have to rely on me at the critical moment." Guys, rush! ”
They saw Xiao Lingyu~ wave her arm, and from the jungle behind, countless fathers suddenly burst out, squeaking and screaming, each holding a stone in her hand.
Since when did Father start helping them? Guanglong couldn't help but look at Xiao Ling with admiration. In this condensed jungle society, she was able to collude with many living beings to serve her life, especially her father, who was known for his wisdom.
The reason why Xiaoling became a star is because of the uniqueness of her own survival.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas once said that the father is good at throwing, and the tiger and leopard are afraid of it. Seeing many menacing fathers rushing towards him, he was really frightened and cowered and retreated.
The group of fathers scattered and climbed the stone pillar, surrounding the human face in the center of the stone tower. Guanglong and Yipinlan saw that the situation was not good, and fled the scene with a drag.
When it was too late, it was too fast, and the raindrops of boulders fell from the sky. The stones that fell to the ground did not have eyes, and some of them even broke Guanglong's arms, and more hit the human face on the body. They are friend or foe.
The scene was chaotic, and the wild boar was so frightened that he ran away without looking back, and even crashed into a nearby tree.
The stones were consumed in an instant, and the human face in the center was already scarred. When Guanglong was still wondering why it didn't run, it had already stood up and jumped up the high stone tower, did it want to fight back?
The human-faced stalk had not yet established itself at the top of the stone tower, and its nimble tail had penetrated into the highest stone hole. On the other side of the stone hole, I saw a bead falling from the sky.
Yi Pinlan exclaimed, "It's a white ball!" ”
I never thought that the lost white ball would be hidden on the stone tower of the temple and appear in this way.
In front of everyone's eyes, the human face was churning in the air, holding the white ball that had not yet landed with his mouth~ and landing steadily.
Oh no, the human face is going to run. Guanglong finally understood that the non-running of the human face and the unintentional help of the fathers were the magic of the white ball. They're doing everything they can to grab the treasure.
Surely my father will not give up. Before the human-faced fox could escape the encirclement, it was bounced back fiercely. It turned out to be a faceless white head, and it quietly pressed its strong body against the abdomen of the human face.
The human face was surprised, and the white ball that was not yet hot in his mouth spit out. Under the eager gaze of everyone, the white ball drew a beautiful arc, landed beside them, and stopped at the feet of Chu Chu on the side.
Seeing this, the white head pointed to the white ball and shouted loudly. Guanglong, who raised his father's language, didn't understand it, and Chu Chu, who knew it, picked up the white ball and jumped away happily.
Chu Chu imitated the human face as he ran, holding the white ball in his mouth. Who knew that the wind behind him was rising again, and it was a desperate pursuit.
The jungle is a battlefield of the jungle, and there is no mercy. In order to survive, either side will compete with the other party's treasure.
The frightened Chu Chu only ran away, not daring to look back. The people behind him were chasing after him, and he was about to hook Chu Chu. They ran to the aid of many fathers.
Seeing that the human face is about to succeed. The white head running beside Guanglong whined, and it should have been for Chu Chu to throw the white ball back.
Chu Chu didn't forget to respond, raised his head and shouted, but forgot to look at the road. It stumbled under its feet and rolled a long way.
Guanglong was worried about himself, and sat up quickly, only feeling that there was nothing in his mouth. Touching his stomach again, everyone understood.
Chu Chu unexpectedly swallowed the white ball.
