The flames were smiling and swaying above the stone face, and at this time I didn't care if the flames would cause a bigger fire, and all my attention was focused on the smiling stone face;

The top of my head was a little numb, and I thought to myself, could it be that this is the hell? It's a whole stone, why is it fucking alive?

In the blink of an eye, the tiger girl and the evil black bull had already rushed over in the water, and they didn't even mean to stop when they saw the posture, and shouted at the white robe who was already scared stupidly beside me: "Take him away, danger, hook, go to the front and open the way";

As I spoke, the tiger girl had already rushed behind me, and before the hook could finish speaking, the man had already jumped up to a nearby low tree, and leaped to the other one in front of him;

I was hurriedly turned around by the two white robes, and I didn't recover from the panic just now, twisted my head and looked back, but I saw a scene that stunned me, the stone face was actually accompanied by a clicking sound, and it was floating in the water, at this time, it had already exposed its shoulders, and it looked coldly, like a stone man standing up in the water.

Three or five white-robed hands with bows and arrows stood still and shot at the stone statue, and the running tiger girl didn't care about their life or death at all, leading the others to sweep in one direction with the hook on the tree;

"Run, don't shoot, run!" , I hysterically shouted in the local language to the small group of white robes who were stunned on the spot, they are not stupid, and immediately turned around and jumped in front of the three of us, not caring about my life or death... To my slight relief, although they were flustered, they did not drop their bows and arrows, and consciously or unintentionally put on a defensive triangular formation with each other;

A dozen people walked through this dense forest without saying a word, under their feet was a shallow shoal with fine stones and vines, and the dense canopy above our heads was like a black pot lid that held our group firmly in this low-lying pot, we had nothing to do but find a gap where people could go, as long as the hook on the tree grasped the principle of "don't deviate from the direction of the wolf smoke", where to run, what posture to run, it doesn't matter, leave here first;

I began to hate that I had lived so comfortably over the years, that I had obviously weighed a lot more than in the first few years, and that I was already exhausted and out of breath after running dozens of meters in my white robe, and the two who were carrying the bald man not far in front of me were no better, and several times they almost shook the bald man from the stretcher into the water.

At this moment, there was a sudden "click" above the head, and the entire dense forest seemed to be trembling with this loud sound, and the canopy of the trees was shaking, giving people a feeling of spinning;

The noise was indescribably loud, and it shook my head, and my newly restored hearing was out of order again, and there was a buzzing tinnitus in my ears;

The white-robed people were startled, especially the two who were carrying the bald man, whose hands trembled and the bald man had fallen into the water, but the two of them did not feel it at all, but subconsciously looked up at the canopy as everyone subconsciously looked up;

"Damn, I've finally found the source of this voice!" I cursed in my heart, this loud noise is all too familiar to me, it is the strange sound that has accompanied me for eight years, and it is like a death knell every night! It's just that right now I am directly below the loud noise, and I trembled so much that my internal organs seemed to burst;

"Not good, hook! Come down from the tree", an ominous premonition suddenly flashed in his head, but before he finished shouting, he saw several black shadows falling from the trees in front of him, slapping steadily in the water, and the whole team also stopped with the fall of these black shadows, and even the tiger girl who ran in front also stood still;

The sense of foreboding intensified, and I pushed away the two white robes that were holding me and ran forward, but as soon as my feet touched the ground, I fell into the water with a thud, and when the white robes lifted me up again and ran forward, a terrible scene, and the last thing I wanted to see, had happened;

There was a corpse lying in the shallow water, a corpse without a head and no arms, just a torso lying straight in the water with legs attached, and the head fell five or six meters away from the corpse, and the black hair on its head was floating freely in the water;

It all happened so suddenly, that in an instant, the girl who had been beside me a few hours earlier and called me "man" had been torn into what she was now, and she had not even been able to say a word of goodbye, or that a word of goodbye was a farewell;

An inexplicable sadness welled up in my heart, watching her skull mixed with blood rolling down the water to my feet, those big eyes still looking at me, but there was no longer the same look as before;

Trying to restrain my emotions, I knew in my heart that now was not the time to be sad, and we probably wouldn't even have time to collect the corpse of the last bloodline of this hunter;

The tiger girl grabbed my arm, opened her mouth wide as if to say something to me, but I could not hear anything, both ears were full of buzzing, the hook's head rolled under my feet, and the straight hair in the water did not even forget to skim my ankle a few times, and then slowly drifted along the current into the distance until it disappeared from my sight;

"Stop running down this walkable tree hole, lean to the foot of the mountain, these tree holes are the trapped-path left for us by others! Huya, you take people to those places that don't seem to be able to walk away", I closed my eyes for a long time, and then shouted at Huya, judging from her reaction, it is obvious that her hearing has also been damaged, but she can still hear one or two;

The tiger girl was talking to me again, her mouth was moving;

"Lao Tzu can't hear, ears can't hear, according to what I said, take them to run, first find the foot of the mountain, and follow the mountain to the wolf smoke!" , I was afraid that the tiger girl would not be able to hear clearly, so I shouted close to her ear;

The canopy of the trees above his head was still shaking, and the tremor of the earth clearly meant that the "click" sound had not stopped;

There is also a gap in the dense forest in the direction of my finger, but it is not as regular as the road I just walked, and the gap is not so wide.

The bald man had already been fished out by the white robes, dripping with water all over his body, his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if there were signs of awakening after just such a toss, the white robes moved with the tiger girl, the bald stretcher behind him, and I was also carried by a white robe on his back and burrowed into the dense forest;

I looked back at the corpse of the hook again, the blood was still gushing, the air was filled with a trace of blood, I looked at the corpse, I couldn't say a word, my eyes gradually blurred, the owner of the corpse burned in my heart, and extinguished in my heart......
