Chapter 6: Ambush
Hearing a bald man's whisper, before I could react, he only said, "Follow me", and then the cat ran to the location of the jug.
I looked at the people who were lying crookedly around me, and said in my heart: Bald, I won't give up if I don't let you toss you to death..., and then I got up and ran after him;
Who knew that the bald man just pulled the empty jug with his hand, and then picked up a wooden spear not far away and went into the dense forest on the other side, while I searched for a long time in the black light and blinded environment and did not find any weapon in my hand, so I had to take the dagger that had been sharpened and stumbled after him;
I hadn't taken a few steps when suddenly a dark shadow came at my feet, and with a pop stumbled over me, and I was about to get up and fight with it, but I heard the man whisper, "Look clearly, it's me", it was the bald man;
He was stirring something with a wooden spear in a small puddle in the forest, and in a short time he took handfuls of mud out of the puddle and smeared it on his own body, face, and the top of his brain, which reflected in any light.
I was a little stunned, and I didn't understand what he was trying to do, but he beckoned to me, and motioned for me to do the same;
"Do you think you died early? We're both painted like mud monkeys, and if we get lost, they won't be able to find us! ”;
I whispered, but my hand didn't stop, and I also threw the smelly you in my face.
"This dark shadow has been following us for several days, and we have to catch him today";
The bald man looked around alarmingly and said;
"Can't you wait for everyone to gather together and cast a net to arrest people?"; The smell of the mud made me feel unpleasant;
"There is no use for a lot of people, that thing is clever, he is thirsty and hungry, so he has to run out to us to get oil and water, and he usually can't see where he is," said the bald man;
"You've had a photo before?"
"No, only I have seen his shadow, everyone else is like a blind man!";
The bald man paused, and then said: "He didn't catch a few drops of water just now, the jar is empty, and he will come back tonight, let's keep watch, no one sleeps!" ”;
"Just the two of us? You might as well take me with a hook... When it comes to ambushes, Lao Tzu is a man! ”;
I didn't lie to him, I have self-knowledge, in comparison, the hook is much more effective than me, not to mention Huya~.
After listening to my words, the bald man turned his head and asked with a wicked smile: "I still don't understand why these guys who don't know whether they are alive or dead are willing to go crazy behind such a person as you!" ”;
As he spoke, he finished pasting the last piece of mud on the top of his head, and actually stood up and walked away without looking back... Left me next to the puddle.
The bald man's words made me stunned, and I felt uncomfortable in my heart for a while: If Lao Tzu hadn't fallen here, the ghost would be willing to follow you bare-ass savages! Fuck it!
Actually, I understood what he meant, and he still accommodated me, or rather, he accommodated himself, because he also understood that he and I were not necessarily the opponent of the dark shadow, no matter what the dark shadow was.
At the same time, he was also telling me: At this juncture, fear of death will not solve the problem, and the only way to solve the problem is to catch the person who created the problem;
I cursed again: "Lao Tzu was once a fucking soldier!" While scolding, he sped up the speed and beckoned the mud to himself, looking at the dark woodland around him, his heart was popping, and his back was swishing with a burst of coldness.
My new "look" startled the tiger girl, and the hook even pulled the mud off my face to recognize that it was really me;
The bald man stared vigilantly at Hu Ya's every move, and carefully said the "ambush" plan 1510, but the judgment given by Hu Ya was: If the black shadow is a person, then he should have reappeared when we were all asleep, and now at this time he risked death to steal water and food, which can only show that the person is likely to be thirsty.
"No, there's another possibility, and that's that he found out that we drank the water here and nothing happened, so he wanted to understand why?" , I think Huya has a point, and suddenly such a thought flashed through my mind.
Huya asked the hook to mix some water from the dense forest with the water in the jar, and boiled a small half pot of meat and rice soup, and the meat was fragrant for a while, but this time the hook should not have put that kind of big white worm;
Then a few people seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they pretended that the rice soup was not drunk, and the hook even placed the jug not far from the fire to make the jug more conspicuous;
The bald man ignored the hook's carefulness, and instead put the jug back into the shadows: "Who would run to steal something from the open?" ”;
Yes, he has a point.
Tiger girl and the hook were pulled by me and also applied a thick layer of mud, and the witty hook did not even forget to grab my hand that was mudding her and pressed it on her breast, I admit, the feel is indeed extraordinary! She tried to grab my other hand again... was kicked by the tiger girl and fell into the puddle......
The fire in the middle of the fire ditch gradually dimmed, the only glimmer of light in the dense forest gradually faded away, and the darkness around us gathered together like ghosts, and we lay on our stomachs, holding our eyelids with our fingers, waiting for the black shadow to appear again;
But we didn't wait for the dark shadow, and when it came, there was only the snoring of the bald man, and the grandson actually fell asleep!
The meat and rice soup has been cooled, the fire has been burned, and the white-robed people who don't know what to do are sitting or lying together in groups of three or five, grinding their teeth and chirping are endless;
I pressed the hook's head with my hand and still held my breath and watched, trying to wake up the bald man several times, but after thinking about it, he must have been tired these days, so he would sleep at such an important time, and the hook gently moved his arm and wanted to grab my hand and put it on the two pieces of meat under her;
I held back, though it was tempting for me, the "ambush" was so boring that I couldn't concentrate on the endless darkness, and I could even guess where I was and a hole had been carved out of the ground!
The mud on my body gradually dried up, and the taste was terrible, especially on my bare skin, such as my "tender face", which felt like the skin was about to be kneaded into a ball by the gradually drying mud! It's itchy to death, but you can't scratch it, and if you scratch it into pieces, it will dry up faster!
The three and a half men were holding on to their eyes with their back molars clenched, the fire had long been extinguished, and there was not even a single insect around me, so quiet that I was in a trance several times;
At this moment, suddenly the hook next to me moved, I thought she was going to grab my hand again, but unexpectedly, her movements were very light, just stretched out a finger and pointed in a direction in front of me, for a while my pupils could not focus on the place where her finger was pointing, after a while, until I got used to the extremely faint light there, I found that there was a person, a person who was also covered in black, and the side of the dense forest gently and slowly went around to another time, looking at the height I dare to conclude that this time, it was definitely not a demon person!
