I was stunned: "Old Ma, do you know?" What is this grass? ”

Before Ma Tan could answer, a small rustling sound was suddenly heard from a distance.

At first I thought it was the sound of the wind, but then I felt that it seemed to be coming from the ground in the distance.

"Did you hear anything?" Ma Tan asked suddenly.

Liang Yue nodded. Apparently they also heard this strange sound.

Liang Yue and I didn't react yet, but Ma Yan's face suddenly changed, and he quickly fell to the ground, put his ear to the ground, and listened carefully. After a while, he jumped up again, put his backpack on the ground, and rummaged through it.

"Old horse, what are you looking for?" I didn't know why Ma Tan was so nervous, so I asked.

"It's too late. Quick, Liang Yue, you cut some branches down that tree, quick, the sooner the better. Li Yang, if you go to pick up bricks and stones, the more the better. ”

We were stunned for a moment, the old horse's attitude changed a little quickly, and there was no buffer at all. I wanted to ask something, but seeing that Ma Jian was so nervous that his face turned pale, as if a crisis was just around the corner, I couldn't help but ask.

From Ma Tan's face, Liang Yue and I both felt the danger, and it was obvious that Ma Jian had predicted something.

We didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed what Ma Tan said, and divided our labor to do the work.

I picked up a lot of rubble next to me, and it was too big for me to move, so I only collected a lot of fist-sized stones.

Liang Yue also cut down a lot of branches from the trees next to him, and piled them all up next to him.

Ma Tan also took out a few things from his bag and put them on the ground. Among them were two sealed glass bottles and a folded sapper shovel, which I and the third uncle also carried, but it was in the third uncle's backpack.

Ma Tan pointed to the sapper shovel and said to me: "Li Yang, hurry up and use that shovel to dig a shallow ditch around us to form a circle, not too deep, just put down these stones." By the way, enclose that tree inside. ”

Ma Yan's tone was unquestionable, and it seemed that there was no time to explain, so I had to take a shovel and dig a shallow ditch outside us, and the shallow ditch enclosed us and the dead tree inside.

In the process of digging the ditch, Ma Jian instructed Liang Yue to break off the dry branches and put them in the shallow ditch, and pressed a lot of stones on them.

While doing all this, Ma Jian kept muttering: "I hope my judgment is wrong......"

I saw that sweat was oozing from Ma Tan's pale face.

Ma Tan opened the lid of the glass bottle again, and sprinkled a yellow powder in it evenly in the shallow ditch. Then he gave me a lighter and said, "We both keep on one side, and some situation may arise in a while, listen to my command, let you light the fire, and you will set the branches in this ditch on fire." ”

I held the lighter and nodded.

At this time, the rustling sound, which seemed a little far away, is now much closer, and has a tendency to become bigger and bigger.

Looking at all this arranged by Ma Tan, you can also guess that it may be guarding against something. Maybe Ma Tan had encountered this situation before, so he would take precautions in advance.

Liang Yue and I have no experience in the wild, nor do we

Do you know what it is that scares Ma Jian like this?

We were ready for battle, and my heart was pounding, ready for this sudden danger.

We waited for more than 10 minutes, but nothing happened. Even the rustling sound seemed to disappear.

I looked at Ma Tan: "What's going on?" Did you misjudge? ”

Liang Yue also said: "Have you figured it out, we can't scare ourselves." ”

Ma Yan's face was purple: "Whoever is full of food will scare you." No, something is wrong, we have to get out of this Nanliu village right away. ”

With that, Ma Tan got up to pick up the backpack and prepared to leave.

I was surprised: "Old Ma, my third uncle has no news yet?" How do you say that you can just go? ”

"That's right. Are you scared? If you want to go, you go first. Liang Yue also thought that Ma Jian was playing tricks, and what he said was not very good.

"You ...... I didn't scare you, come with me. Ma Yan angrily picked up his backpack, crossed the shallow ditch, and prepared to leave.

Actually, I know that Ma Jian will not be alarmist, but if I am asked to leave my third uncle like this, I will definitely not do it.

Ma Tan didn't take two steps, and when he looked back, he really didn't mean to move. He stomped his foot angrily, then turned around and turned back, sighing incessantly.

Ma Tan threw his backpack to the ground, leaned down again, and put his ear to the ground to listen to the movement.

Seeing that Ma Yan was in trouble, I also followed his example and put my ears to the ground to listen.

Ma Tan asked in a low voice, "Did you hear that?" The rustling sound is still there. ”

In this way, I heard a different voice. All other sounds in the air were diluted, except for the rustling sound coming from the ground, as if something was crawling on the ground.

"Old horse, is there some reptile passing nearby, is it okay?" I looked up and said.

The old horse always put his ear to the ground, and shook his head while listening: "No, this voice is definitely not one, but a group." And the voice had just disappeared, and now it was back, getting closer...... If I want to leave now, I'm afraid it's too late......"

The sound of the horse was dim for a while, and I hurried to the ground again to listen, and sure enough, the sound came quickly, at first only a few moments, and after a while, I heard a strong rustling sound coming from me.

Somehow, after hearing the rustling sound slowly approaching, I suddenly felt numb even though I hadn't seen what it was.

I fluttered, jumped up from the ground, and copied the peachwood sword in my hand. At this time, you don't have to lie on the ground to feel the danger coming.

"Rustle...... Rustling...... rustling ......" The sound came one after another, and it came continuously.

Ma Jian reminded loudly: "Go and guard, be ready to light a fire at any time." ”

I grabbed my lighter and ran to the inside of the shallow ditch, staring in all directions. The voice had no direction and was swarming from all directions.

"Here we are." Ma Jian suddenly shouted.

I hurriedly looked over and saw that Ma Tan was staring straight away

in one direction.

But I didn't see anything special, but I found two glittering lights on the ground, as if there was some piece of glass on the ground reflecting the sunlight.

"Oh no, it's really this kind of thing, it's bad now......" Ma Jian looked at the two bright lights, and his voice was already trembling.

At this time, I noticed that more and more bright lights were already appearing in the field of vision, and they should be a kind of creature, which had been kept at a distance of more than thirty meters from us after gathering.

"What the hell is that?" I asked out loud.

"It's a sand wolf."

"Sand wolf?" Liang Yue and I looked at each other, and it was clear that neither of us had heard of this animal.

"Isn't it amazing?" Liang Yue asked.
