When the old man Dugu saw Ruoshui and Zhao Tingfeng leaving, he immediately became anxious when he was eating heavily.

He quickly reached out and stuffed several plates of meat and large bones on the table into his pocket, grabbed another handful of peanuts, and stuffed a rabbit leg into his mouth.

Then he reluctantly left the tent and ran outside quickly, chasing Ruoshui and Zhao Tingfeng.

"Oh, you two dolls, wait for me, old man! Wait for me! Why are you two running so fast? ”

It wasn't dawn yet, and it was still dark outside.

Walking to the valley, the early winter wind was blowing.

The moon sets in the west, and there are mountains and forests on both sides of the road, and the mountains and forests are extremely dark.

It was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and when I walked on the mountain road, I could only walk forward with my eyes closed, and I couldn't see the scene ahead at all.

The old man Dugu didn't care about the cold and biting wind outside, and hugged the rabbit leg and ate it in a big gulp.

His hands were passively red in the cold wind, but he still refused to give up eating.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps ahead.

In the dark night, you can't see what lies ahead.

In such a dark night, walking in such a deep mountain with no one in sight, it is easy to develop a feeling of fear.

In addition, the sudden sound of strange footsteps outside made it even more frightening.

"Mom!" The old man Dugu was so frightened that even the rabbit leg in his hand fell to the ground.

"Ahead, ahead, is there a beast ahead!" The old man Dugu grabbed Ruoshui's sleeve tightly with one hand, and pointed to the dark place in front of him in horror with the other hand and said to Ruoshui.

Zhao Tingfeng also frowned, and his expression couldn't help but become nervous.

"I've heard that in the dark night, there are often tigers and beasts in the mountains and forests, so aren't we afraid we've encountered tigers and beasts?" Zhao Tingfeng said.

Ruoshui thought for a moment, and then said, "This season, the weather is cold, and the tigers and beasts need more food. We have to be extra careful. ”

Hearing the conversation between the two, the old man Dugu was already trembling with fright.

He said with teeth fighting: "Girl, are we going to die here today?" My old man hasn't lived enough, and I don't want to die yet! I haven't found the old lady I want yet, I haven't eaten enough delicious food, I still want to live! ”

Ruoshui asked, "Then can you climb trees?" ”

Old man Dugu nodded: "I will, I will climb trees!" I can climb trees! ”

At this time, the old man Dugu seemed to understand something.

"Yes, I can climb trees! Tigers and beasts can't climb trees! ”

The old man Dugu quickly climbed up a big pine tree next to him.

Then he lay on the branch and looked down in horror.

"Hey, girl, Maple Boy, why don't you climb up the tree? Don't you crawl and be eaten by beasts? The old man Dugu lay on the tree and asked loudly at Ruoshui and Zhao Tingfeng, who were standing under the tree.

Ruoshui said indifferently: "If my fate should be like this, what's the use of me even if I hide?" If God is going to take your life today, what can you do even if you hide in a book? So, you better hurry down! ”

As she spoke, Ruoshui gently stretched out her hand and grabbed the corner of the old man Dugu's clothes, and then she pulled the old man Dugu down from the tree with a slight force.

With a loud bang, the old man fell from the tree to the ground.

He lay on the ground, clutching his waist and wailing.

"Oh, you little girl, why are you bullying me, an old man! How many beatings can I withstand, this old bone? ”
