91. The road is narrow
But the plan can never catch up with the changes, and we missed the "latitude mystery" of Heizhugou, because the rock contains a lot of iron, manganese, magnesium, silicon, etc., which creates a very different magnetic field, and we are in this central area. So even if there was a compass, the hour hand was so cheap by the geomagnetic force that we walked for hours before we could get out of the forest, but after the rain it was humid and the fog rose early, making it even more difficult to discern the direction.
That's when it dawned on me why my watch stopped and why.
Survival in the wild is the most taboo blind walking, we stop to rest, think about what can be done to break the geomagnetic force. Glancing at the head wolf behind him, his heart moved, he was ecstatic, there was the best guide, and he was still willing to go far, and his nose was the most sensitive positioning instrument.
But this time when I gave the command to the wolf, it stood still.
speculated one after another: "Maybe a rain last night has watered the remaining breath, and even it is difficult to search for it." "After I gave the order to the head wolf many times, and it was indifferent, I had to admit that I was right one after another. That is to say, while we were evading the pursuit of Kai Mingzai and others, we also got lost in the forest and lost our direction.
In desperation, I and I had to find a place to stay nearby, and we vaguely felt that this night was not even more peaceful than last night's stormy night, and in the dead of night, dormant beasts would haunt us. It was getting dark very quickly, and before we could find a place to rest, it was dark, and the sound of a suspected wolf howl in the silence was particularly clear, and I and I both changed our faces one after another, and we instinctively went to see the wolf.
I saw that it changed its previous listless state, stood sassy, and swept out of the position where the sound came from in the next instant. One after another, they shouted: "It's not good, it will expose us and stop it!" ”
I didn't want to chase after him, in fact, when I heard the wolf howl, I felt a sense of unforethought, and the seriousness of the matter was extremely clear. I thought that a heavy rain had fallen overnight, and another day had passed, and Ming Tsai and the others gave up looking for us, who knows...... Wait, I stopped abruptly, followed closely one after another, unprepared for my sudden stop, too late to stop the momentum, inevitably crashed into me, knocked me forward and staggered a few steps, he quickly reached out and grabbed my waist, so as not to fall and eat.
One after another, while helping me, he asked anxiously, "Why did you suddenly stop running?" The wolf is gone, the fog is so heavy and it's night, it's hard for us to catch up again. I grabbed him by the arm, "Successively, something is not right." The head wolf is the leader of the pack, and Ming Tsai has called it by howling wolf before, but it can listen to my orders and ignore it, but this time it rushed out completely out of control. If you think about it, was that a wolf howling just now? ”
After listening to my analysis, he calmed down one after another, "It sounds very similar, but it seems to be a little different, and it feels ...... It feels like the source of the sound is not far away, it is nearby. "Yes, that's the key! The wolf's howl is very special, it is emitted by a sharp decibel that rises and rises, penetrating a long distance, and if you compare it with the howl just now, it seems to be more like an imitation of howl.
Animals have their own way of communicating with each other, and the sound of a certain frequency band represents a certain meaning, if someone is just simulating the howl of a wolf, it may be a summoning or a ...... Distress. Pointing to an answer, I squinted in the direction where the wolf had disappeared and whispered, "Let's look for it a little further." ”
When the sound of movement was getting louder and louder, he grabbed me one after another and shook his head, and I was also hesitating. But reality didn't give us more time to hesitate and think about it, and a huge black shadow pounced, fast and accurate! Before he could push me aside, he was crushed underneath.
In the midst of the overturn, I shouted in a low voice: "Aman, it's us." ”
The black shadows that could suppress one after another did not get up, but twisted together, and after a few seconds, they exclaimed one after another: "Xiao Jiu, it's not Aman." ”
My heart sank, could it be that I made a mistake in judgment? Judging from the previous performance of the wolf, it was determined that Aman's breath followed me, so just now it heard a howl and suddenly went wild, and I deduced that it was Aman calling it. Therefore, when I saw the tall humanoid black shadow rushing towards me, I intuitively thought it was Ah Man, but I said no, then it was definitely not.
I didn't talk nonsense anymore, and I deceived myself to help, but suddenly there was a strange movement behind me, and I reminded one after another: "Be careful behind you, there is another one." At this time, turning around, he would only lose the opportunity, and his body made a decision before his brain, choosing not to dodge but to fly and pounce, and slammed into the black shadows that were pressing one after another. At the same time as knocking it away, I was also going to roll to the ground, but I was pulled one after another, and people crashed into his arms, and there was a muffled snort from the top of his head, and then he said with a wry smile: "Xiao Jiu, are you doing a disservice?" ”
I didn't want to rub my tongue with him, so I stood up and swept my legs, kicking the black shadow that wanted to get up to the ground again, and the one behind me let me kick it away one after another. By this time, it was already certain that they were by no means Aman, and they were too far behind in terms of skill and agility, as if they were taller, but their movements were very clumsy.
Just as he was about to take this opportunity to take down the other party, he suddenly heard a gloomy voice not far away, but it was not said to us.
"Wolf monster, just tie your hands, even if you let go of all the inferior products, I won't frown, but you, don't want to escape my control. You've already sucked a lot of Demon Star powder, and you've learned a lesson when you're disobedient before, do you still want to experience the taste of life being worse than death? ”
Be...... Old iron! The road is narrow, and in the end I ran into him. At this time, whether it was the tone of his speech or his tough tone, it was completely different from the kind brother he had before, and he was vicious and vicious.
When the two black shadows heard Lao Tie's voice, they immediately gave up their attack on us, curled up in a ball and trembled, they were so afraid of him. From Lao Tie's words, you can get some information, first of all, one thing is certain, Ah Man fell out with him, the so-called "inferior products" are the two humanoid black shadows in front of us? Then they belong to the same kind as Aman, not animals.
I can't help but think of the news that Brother Liang and the three madmen heard before, saying that there seems to be internal strife between them, is this infighting caused by Aman? He wants to rescue his companions?
A miserable cry interrupted my meditation, and my heart tightened, could it be that he ...... him? I looked at each other and decided to take the plunge and investigate. It turned out that the sound sounded close, but the distance was not close, because the night was quiet and empty, so it came and thought it was close at hand.
Hiding themselves in the shadows of the trees, they quietly approached, and noticed that the two black shadows were still in place and cowering, and they seemed to be terrified.
Keeping an eye on the rear in case they attacked again, I poked my head out to peek ahead. The scream was followed by a moan, and my heart trembled when I saw through the light of the night. I thought it was Aman, but it wasn't, but I never imagined it would be such a scene!
It turned out that Lao Tie was not alone, there were three or four people behind him, all of whom were leading a wolf at their feet, and in their hands was a steel pipe about one meter long and brightened. Although he couldn't see it clearly, he vaguely understood that the steel pipe might be the kind that the three madmen in the dry well had gotten.
A man's steel pipe was inserted into the body of a dark shadow in front of his feet. The screams and moans all came from the black shadow, and I was horrified to think it was Ah Man at first glance, but when I turned my eyes to a certain place, I realized that it was not.
Just ten meters in front of Lao Tie and them, there was a lonely figure, judging from his height and standing posture, he was Aman. Because his back was to the moonlight and in the shade of a tree, he was completely shrouded in darkness. Staring at that figure, I felt a sense of grief and loneliness.
Turning my gaze, I noticed that it was the wolf standing at Ah Man's feet, and it really heard Ah Man's voice and ran desperately.
I only heard Lao Tie say: "Wolf monster, I really don't want to hurt you, after all, it is not an overnight thing to cultivate such a you." But if you don't get upset, it's the same as them. I raise all wolves, but not white-eyed wolves! Speaking of this, he sneered, "From the beast training field all the way to here, I forgot to count how many times I died, wolf, have you counted?" ”
I saw Aman's figure move, a mournful roar overflowed, and the next moment, the head wolf at his feet began to howl. Obviously, the wolves led by Lao Tie had a commotion, but when one of them hit the steel pipe hard and made an extremely sharp sound, several wolves gradually quieted down again. At this time, Lao Tie laughed again, "Do you think that if the green wolf listens to you, he can control these hunting wolves?" Dr. Li is an expert in zoology and medicine, and has been studying wolf clans for more than ten years, do you think you can win him? ”
Dr. Lee? The one in the white coat? Lao Tie means that these wolves are controlled by medicinal powder, even if the wolf clan is a group system, and the head wolf is their leader, under the dual control of medicine and audio, they can ignore the call of the head wolf, and may even attack it?
As soon as this thought flashed, with Lao Tie's cold snort, several people behind him loosened their leashes, and the wolves rushed towards Ah Man. Ah Man didn't move, and the head wolf blocked the front first, fighting with them. The saddest thing in the world is cannibalism. The drug has made him lose his nature, and even in the face of the leader, he can bite down.
Ah Man moved, but the next moment he heard a dull snapping sound, Ah Man's feet were cremated and splashed, and Lao Tie said: "Don't worry, let's talk about it after watching this play, or ...... Hehe, maybe your speed can be avoided, I wonder if they can? In your world, apart from those inferior products, aren't they also your people? ”
What's that? Pyrotechnics? Apparently not.
"It's a firearm similar to a thunderbolt, look at Lao Tie's hands." Whispering in my ear one after another. Turning his gaze to the old iron hand, he was surprised to see him holding a black hole pipe, which was different from other people's steel pipes, about ten centimeters long, and the spark just now was shot out by it?
One after another, he seemed to know the doubts in my heart, and whispered to me: "It looks like an earthen barrel, but judging from the fire just now, it should be filled with phosphorus powder, which is extremely flammable and powerful." ”
