Chapter 163: No Way to Escape
Hearing Zhang Yi's summoning, all of us stopped what we were doing, puzzled for about half a second, and then reacted to the meaning of Zhang Yi's words, and we all gathered around excitedly.
Sure enough, on the ground in front of Zhang Yi, under the broken snow and loose needles, a dark stone tablet revealed a corner.
I couldn't wait to step forward, throw the shovel in my hand aside, squat down and use my hands to clean the surface of the stele.
After a while, the rest of the people followed my example and came to help.
It took us a few minutes to clear most of the surface of the stele. After a short time, the stele finally presented its old and scarred face to our eyes.
It seems to have been carved with handwriting on its surface, but now all that remains is what appears to be a mess of short marks, making it impossible to tell what is written on it.
I got up and clapped my hands, patted off the debris and mud and snow on my gloves, lit the flashlight and looked at the stone slab, and asked Liu Fatzi: "You said that the stone tablet you dug up, is this one?"
Liu Fatzi squinted his eyes, walked around the stone tablet again and again, looked at it for a while, shook his head and said, "Fifth brother, I can't remember." It looks like it is, but it doesn't seem right. ”
Zhao Zitong finally caught it, and shouted next to him: "Your big fat head is like a pig's head, what can you remember?"
Liu Fatzi came out this time, did not quarrel with Zhao Zitong, scratched his face, and then began to bend down and search for the ground near the stone stele, as if he was looking for something.
I asked Liu Fatzi what he was looking for, and Liu Fatzi replied as he searched: "If I can find that anchor near here, it is estimated that it will be eight or nine or ten."
By the way, Liu Fatzi, they also dug up the anchor at that time, and I almost ignored such an important clue.
So, under my arrangement, except for climbing to the top of the tree to watch the sunset and pretending to be a deep cold moon, everyone else began to look for anchors all over the ground.
One by one, we held our flashlights, bent over and walked around, accompanying the gradually approaching night, allowing time to pass little by little, and we never found anything.
Suddenly, I heard a long fart sound, which was so melodious and melodic, like crying.
At first, I thought it was Liu Fatzi who had a stomach upset and didn't hold back, but soon I realized that something was not right, because I was very alert to the fact that the breathing of our people seemed to be mixed with other sounds.
The sound was faint, about the same magnitude as breathing, and I guess only I could hear it here.
I stood up with a frown, shining my flashlight on it, trying to find the source of the sound. I didn't do this out of obsessive-compulsive disorder, or to be lazy, but to be responsible for the safety of my brothers.
After looking around, I didn't see anything wrong, so I listened with bated breath again, only to find that the voice was gone.
This made me even more uneasy.
After thinking about it for a while, I decided that I still couldn't let everyone take risks, so I thought about letting everyone go back to the steel room for dinner and rest first, and save the rest for tomorrow.
But before I could say this, I suddenly noticed that near a very thick tree not far away, pale pink smoke was spreading, and it was blowing in the wind towards us.
"Oh no, it's an old fox. Let's go back to the steel room! ”
Everyone was startled by my reminder, and quickly got up, noticing the pale pink gas that was still spreading from my flashlight, and also noticed a beast's head carefully poking out from behind the tree.
Sure enough, it's an old fart fox spirit!
Liu Fatzi said "I'll rely on", turned around and ran back first, Yang Qing, Zhao Zitong and Zhang Yi followed Liu Fatzi.
Shen Dali didn't run back, but came to my side, waved the sapper shovel in his hand a few times, gritted his teeth and asked me: "Fifth brother, don't care about anything else, let's catch that beast first, it's really hateful."
Although I am also very disgusted with these old fart fox spirits who have come out to make trouble three or four times, I don't want these brothers around me to take meaningless risks.
I waved my hand back, lowered my voice and said to Shen Dali: "Leng Yue's things that can't be grasped with his hands, let's not waste our efforts."
Say the cold moon, the cold moon arrives.
When he was talking to Shen Dali and I, he fell from the sky like a cannonball, smashing a shallow pit on the ground, smashing snow foam and broken pine needles flying all over the sky.
In the midst of the fluttering debris, Leng Yue galloped out and rushed towards the tree where the old fox spirit was.
Shen Dali looked up at the top of the tree where Leng Yue was just now, and then at the fresh pit on the ground, and muttered: Is he still human? It's a deadly animal.
I hurriedly said, "Leave it alone, let's go back and get the gas mask first, and then come over to help."
Shen Dali nodded hurriedly, turned around and ran, but as soon as he ran two or three steps, he stopped suddenly.
I almost hit Shen Dali, and when I stopped, I was about to ask Shen Dali what he encountered, but I saw Liu Fatzi and the four of them running back for some reason.
I thought that Liu Fatzi was worried about the safety of me and Shen Dali, so he ran back, and shouted anxiously: "What are you running back for?" Hurry back and get your gas mask. ”
Liu Fatzi and their speed did not slow, and they soon returned to me and Shen Dali's side.
He said breathlessly: "Five...... Fifth brother, good ...... What a ...... Old fart vixen! ”
I wanted to tell you what you were joking, but before I could say anything, I saw a lot of dark shadows looming in the forest ahead, approaching us from the cold darkness.
Shen Dali first raised the flashlight and shone it over, and then burst into a foul mouth.
Not only Shen Dali, but even when I saw the dozens of old fart fox spirits seemingly leisurely surrounding us, I wanted to scold my mother.
Suddenly, I heard the rustle of snow being trampled behind me, and the crackling of pine needles breaking, as if someone was approaching us.
I was shocked, and hurriedly turned around to look, and saw that it was Leng Yue slowly retreating towards me, and in the direction he was facing, dozens of old fox spirits also appeared.
Seeing that we were surrounded by so many old fox spirits, I couldn't think of a way to deal with it for a while, and I was sweating profusely.
Actually, in such a situation, we should climb the trees to take shelter, but when I saw a few old fox spirits sliding down from the canopy in the distance, I realized that in the face of such a three-dimensional encirclement, we may really have to wait for death.
Liu Fatzi was so anxious that he shouted: "Big brothers, I have rough skin and thick meat, and there is a lot of oil, if you are hungry, don't eat me." If you want to eat that Zhao Zitong first, she has fine skin and tender meat, and the taste is good. ”
Zhao Zitong scolded angrily: "You dead fat man, haven't you heard that such a beast likes to eat a lot of meat like yours?" Hurry up and sacrifice yourself to attract firepower, or everyone will be killed by you. ”
I said angrily: "You two are not finished, when are you still arguing?" Have that energy to figure it out quickly. ”
"How?" Suddenly there was a laugh from the group of old fox spirits, but I don't know which one made it.
Then the voice said, "Otherwise, I'll give you an idea, right?"
