Chapter 115: Wooden Thorn Trap
It was indeed that weirdo who made me change my mind, but Yao Qianwen was only half right for the specific reason. I'm not afraid that the man will hurt Silent Night, but I'm worried that Silent Night will cause me trouble. Although under my teaching, it is normal to survive in human society at night.
But only if she wasn't hurt.
So, although I am very reluctant to mention it, I have to admit that there is a wild nature in the silent night. To completely smooth it out, it's not a matter of a day or two, a month or two months, maybe years, decades, or never change. So without fully understanding the situation, it's best not to get into trouble.
“…… So, what I'm worried about is not that Jingye will get hurt, but that Jingye will hurt others. ”
Speaking of which, I suddenly stopped.
Because the car stopped too quickly, Yao Qianwen almost hit the windshield, "Oops! it, uncle! ”
"It's weird."
I looked at the woods in front of the windshield in confusion that weren't supposed to be.
It's a town that's close to the center of the town, and whatever it is, it's a human society. But suddenly a large area of forest appeared, and it looked very strange. And according to the previous information, the puzzle maze should be in the area where this forest is located.
Due to the dense forest, the car could no longer drive smoothly, so I had to get out of the car and walk into it.
"Uncle, how can it be a piece of forest, don't you talk about a good labyrinth?" Yao Qianwen tugged at my sleeve.
Her behavior was strange.
It's like I'm afraid of something.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked.
"Me? I don't think so......."
"So what do you mean by that? Seeking Fatherly Love? I gestured to the two hands she was holding my arms.
"I ......" she was stunned for a moment, it seemed that this action was also unexpected by her, and she looked at me a little confused, "I don't know, I always feel ...... I didn't feel well, as if something was going to happen to me. Do you understand how it feels? ”
"If you say it literally, then I understand."
"Understand what?" She asked me.
"That is, you feel like you're going to have a big disaster. Is that what it means? ”
"It seems to be ......"
"That's kind of weird." I believe in hunches, but only in my own, and I can't perceive the feelings of others. can see Yao Qianwen's nervous expression, it doesn't look like a fake, she was very normal to drive all the way before, but when she got here, she suddenly became flustered. I didn't want to be too embarrassed for her, so I said, "You go back first, wait for me in the car." ”
These words made Yao Qianwen feel relieved, but she immediately became nervous again, "Uncle, aren't you going into the labyrinth?" You'll have to wait a long time, right? "She didn't seem to want to leave me.
I shook my head: "That place claims to be in and out, and I didn't plan to rush in." Even if you want to go in, you have to be with Du Youlan, and be fully prepared. I'm here today, just to see what the outer edge of the labyrinth looks like, at least find the entrance first. So, it shouldn't be long, you're waiting for me outside. An hour at most, and I'll be back. ”
Being made by her, I was also a little inexplicably uneasy. After thinking about it, I decided to let Jingye wait for me in the car with her.
However, Jingye was very clingy to me, and said that he would not return to the car.
Helpless, Yao Qianwen had no choice but to leave by herself, and before leaving, she repeatedly told me: "...... Uncle, hurry up, I'm really a little uncomfortable, and I've been flustered. Come back soon! ”
We hadn't gone deep into the woods yet, but when we looked back, I could still see the car we had rented when we came, and I continued to move deeper into the woods after seeing Yao Qianwen get into the car. Just walking and walking, I couldn't help but ask Jingye, "Do you have any strange feelings?" ”
"No," the little girl shook her head, her expression still a little excited, "I think it's fun!" ”
I smiled helplessly, "That's why you don't want to go back to the car?" ”
"Hee-hee-......" Jingye smiled coquettishly at me, and then ran to the woods.
However, everything was not as easy as expected. Soon, I couldn't laugh anymore. I gradually realized that the size of the forest was far larger than I had imagined it before, and most of the hour I had agreed with Yao Qianwen had passed, but I still found no trace of the labyrinth.
Of course, it's also possible that I'm lost.
The trees here are so dense that it is difficult to distinguish the direction from the front to the back, the left and right, but unfortunately, the sky is overcast again, and at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, it looks like it is approaching dusk.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of jumping in the woods ahead!
The trees were also swaying, and it seemed to be some kind of moving living thing, in that direction!
Jingye crawled on the ground, his nose moved, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with excitement, "Brother, it seems to be the taste of food......"
It should be noted here that for Silent Night, everything that smells of blood and has a fishy smell is classified by her as the smell of food. It doesn't have to be human flesh and blood. So most of the things she calls food actually vomit even after eating.
But this little girl will still be very fascinated.
"Be careful."
"Hmm!" Silent Night jumped into the woods excitedly, and after a commotion, the woods became surprisingly quiet.
"Silent night?" I asked tentatively.
I didn't hear back, I didn't feel good, and immediately chased after me, pushing aside the woods, only to find Jingye lying on the ground, with a doe next to her and a big pit in front of her.
Hearing my footsteps, the deer panicked, but still did not leave the vicinity of the pit.
Jingye turned around, "Brother, it's a deer, there's a small one here, but it's ......"
I walked over and looked into the pit, which contained sharp wooden thorns, and the body of a fawn had fallen into the slits of the wooden thorns, and it was already stinking.
It's a trap.
The trap is full of traces left by the doe, and it has probably been wandering here for a long time, trying to save it, but it can't get down, and there is nothing it can do but watch the fawn die.
"Brother, it's a little pitiful, I'll go and drag the little one up......"
Silent Night wanted to climb down the trap, but I stopped me, "Don't go down." ”
"Huh?"
"Wood thorns are poisonous."
The fawn was not large, it was not stabbed, it did not bleed much, and the cause of death could only be poisoning.
"However, it looks very sad......" Jingye looked at the doe, her eyes hesitated, she wanted to climb down, just like she had saved Sakoteng in the first place.
That's one of the things that reassures me.
Although the silent night is wild, it is also human.
It may be pointless to drag the carcass of that fawn up, but it must be done for Silent Night, and no matter what, she must not be disappointed. So I tied the paracord to a nearby tree and climbed down the pit. Although Silent Night is also poisoned by insects, unlike me, she can only inherit the existing resistance from my insect poison, and does not have the ability to evolve similar to mine. Without figuring out what kind of poison it was, it was better for me to go down than her.
However, when I actually entered the trap, I found a strange thing, the deer had been killed by a slit throat, not from the trap, nor from poisoning!
At that moment, I suddenly understood one thing, a trap is not a trap, this fawn's corpse is!
And the next moment, above my head, there was the sound of a shotgun!
