Book 2: The Bronze Hanging Coffin of the Ba People Chapter 21: Alone in the Bandit Ditch

After Lan Xin and the ghost finished my "order", they asked in unison, "Then what are you responsible for?" ”

"I'm also shouldering a heavy responsibility myself, two, Wang Zhicheng's dog ghost Gu herbs, and the larvae in your body are not too many for me to solve!" Before I finished speaking, Lan Xin and Ghost said that they didn't agree with me to go alone, and insisting that they fight side by side is the best solution.

As soon as I heard this, I was anxious, and retorted in a strong tone, "You don't know! When the larvae of this dragon lice Gu are in your veins, you can't let your blood circulation speed up, otherwise it will only speed up the displacement of the larvae, and if the larvae transfer to the heart, that is, when you two die. And going into the mountains to find medicine is physical work, and it is even possible to go over the mountains and mountains, and it is false that your blood circulation does not accelerate at that time. ”

"Then you can't say anything and let you go alone, you don't know how dangerous it is." Lan Xin still insisted on disagreeing, so he said, "And you don't have any sharp weapons in your hands, you don't even have a weapon to defend yourself in the deep mountains and old forests." ”

"Who told you not to bring my Qiankun Knife?" Actually, I don't mean to blame Lan Xin at all, but I'm used to arguing with him.

"You're embarrassed, didn't you say that you would tell me the address as soon as you arrived in Wushan County? You didn't say it, and I didn't know that you all ran to Dachang Town. Lan Xin casually explained, and let me think of a foolproof solution.

There is no perfect solution, time is the most wasteful we can not afford now, Fatty, Xiaojing, and Yanzi, the whereabouts of the three of them are still unknown, and Wang Zhicheng and the Gu poison on your body have no time to delay, so my mother-in-law will only put everyone in danger, and finally under my insistence and righteousness, I still adopted my method - I went into the mountain alone.

Shennongjia west and Chongqing Wushan adjacent, and Dachang town is the nearest distance from Wushan to Shennongjia, before the officer Wei said, the hydropower station to the east to about three kilometers, to meet a bottomless mountain jungle landform, that is Shennongjia western, the most primitive forest, because of the remote, and belong to the junction of the two places, the traffic is inconvenient, no one cares for many years, so it has not been planned to Shennongjia forest area, anyway, it is basically forgotten, in addition to some of the older generation of old people still have a few remember.

According to Grandpa Wei told him before, the forgotten deep mountains and old forests also have an alias given by the locals, called "Ju Bandit Ditch", that is from 1927 to 1949, the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Japanese army fully invaded China, in those years China fell into dire straits, the world was in chaos, the smoke of gunpowder was everywhere, the war was continuous and the people were not happy, many people went into the mountains to be bandits, at that time the ravine was an important base for bandits to gather, the bandits went out of the mountains by water and land during the day to rob, and returned to the mountains and forests at night. Sometimes it was rampant enough to hijack the arms support team of the Kuomintang * People's Army, at that time the Kuomintang also sent troops into the mountains to encircle and suppress, but each time it failed to succeed, the strange thing is that those bandits are like stealth skills, every time they can escape a catastrophe, until the early days of liberation, the Communist * Industry Party swept away the bandits, and the evil bandits who gathered in the ditch were all killed, and the grandfather of the officer Wei was the deputy commander of that operation.

If it is really as Officer Wei said before, the more primitive and more hidden the deep mountains and old forests are the more dangerous, but it is also a place where some precious herbs grow better, and I know that this trip is naturally like walking on thin ice, and there is no way out.

Before leaving, I gave thousands of instructions, so that the ghost and Lanxin must maintain the natural temperature of the body, not too hot, not too cold, the hydropower station is a dead door in feng shui, naturally yin, the river here is obviously cold, although it is a building, but the surrounding is still yin, from time to time there will be fog and cold wind, so I asked them to do what I explained, it is best to hide in the abandoned hydropower station, the temperature inside is better than outside.

When I left, the ghost and Lan Xin were about to give me a hug and a message of peace, but I stopped them in time and said, "You two don't come here, it's like seeing me for the last time, haven't you watched the TV show!" Anyone who engages in this kind of formalism before the task will all go back vertically and horizontally. ”

"Phew!" Lan Xin was anxious when he heard this, and after snorting a few times in a row, he said, "Don't be a crow's mouth, everything that comes to your mouth has changed its taste, anyway, we are waiting for your good news." She gave me a hug and handed me the Type 54* pistol she was carrying, "There are only seven bullets, save some for yourself." ”

The ghost also deliberately modified his soil shovel temporarily, so that I could use it as a weapon for self-defense when I entered the mountain, and in a few words, concise and to the point, to popularize some knowledge of special survival in the wild, I took it all as ordered, and then after being poorly armed, he stood up and said, "Okay, don't delay my time, Captain China is going to save the world." After finishing speaking, he deliberately teased him, clasped his fists with both hands, and added passionately, "Two great kindnesses, the younger brother is unforgettable, farewell!" Then he set off for the unknown bandit ditch to the east.

Since it is now eleven o'clock in the evening, I have calculated, three kilometers normal people should be completed in about half an hour, so I did not rest along the way, even drinking water is drinking while walking, fortunately there is a bottle of mineral water on the boat arranged by the officer, although it is the boatman's, but the others are gone, I will be borrowed, go back and make a bottle of good wine to worship him, it is also kind, speaking of this boatman, fortunately he has the habit of drinking two sips before his death, otherwise there is no two * pot head in my fart pocket now, there is wine to strengthen the courage, It also made me Wu Nian a little less timid in this dark and windy and deserted ghost place at night.

In less than half an hour, I had already reached the mountain pass, and I arrived at just over eleven o'clock, and as soon as I got to the ground, I had my first rest.

I have already committed a cigarette addiction along the way, if it weren't for the rush I would have smoked it a long time ago, and I would have come to it before I entered the mountain now, so as to relieve my addiction, otherwise I would not dare to smoke when I entered the mountain, you must know that the ignition point of cigarette butts can reach about 800 °C, and this accidentally put on a fire suit for the forest, which is not to go to prison.

I was not idle when smoking, taking advantage of a cigarette, I watched the terrain in the mountain pass, black pressure pressed a piece, in addition to through the hazy moonlight can see two high mountains towering in the same direction as the moon, far away, the two mountains are less than 100 meters apart, under the mountain, a road full of vegetation, seeing such an environment, suddenly made me have a headache, my brain immediately reminded me of those things that happened two years ago, Fudi Longgou experienced, when it was four people, at least there was a care, now I am alone, dead and no one is buried, But then again, if you come here, you will be safe, and if there is no way out, you just have to go hard.

In the midst of my thoughts, the cigarette in my hand had burned out, and I took out two pots from my butt pocket, poured two sips, and grabbed the shovel and entered the mountain.

The herbs I need are podophyllum leaves and purple immortal plants, because the former of these two herbs grows under the cliff wall, and the latter grows on the cliff wall, especially at the cliff wall, which is the place where the purple immortal plant grows well, so I went all the way in the direction of the two mountains.

In the book "Compendium of Materia Medica", it is also called the soul revival grass or immortal grass, it likes to grow in a humid, semi-yin and half-yang environment, especially in the subtropical deep mountain old forest, it is better to grow, long in the stone crevice, is a rare medicinal material.

Shennongjia vegetation products are abundant, all kinds of strange flowers and plants are countless, herbs are naturally everything, since ancient times, there are Chinese ancestors, Yandi Shennong, in this frame wood for the ladder, pick herbs, save the people from the disease, and this Juganggou It is the forgotten west corner of Shennongjia, but it shares Shennongjia, a natural treasure land feng shui, so although the purple immortal strains are rare, but I am not worried that Juganggou will not have this kind of medicinal material.

After entering the mountain, the first thing I did was to dress myself up first, and the method given by the ghost was to let me use wet soil to paint my body, including my face, and then use vines and weeds, branches, etc., to program it into "clothes" and wear it on my body, so that I just need to lie down in the grass, it is a pile of grass, this method is to avoid accidentally encountering the attack of wild beasts, because the wet mud can cover up the smell of the body, and the weeds on the body can hide from the world, because there are no knives, Only the ghost's improvised shovel was used as a knife, so it took me a lot of effort to weave a camouflage suit for myself.

As soon as the camouflage clothes were put on, I heard the sound of rustling grass behind me, and then I saw a thing in front of me, this thing is a long nose prickly head, covered with hard hair of a big wild boar, it drilled out of the grass, first looked around, probed the wind, and then slowly revealed the true face of Lushan, I was taken aback, this wild boar is not small, nearly two meters tall, if you can stand up, you can be taller than me more than a head, two exposed white fangs make it look more powerful, It is not difficult to see that this is an adult male wild boar, it provides the pig's nose, looking for food in the soil, when it passes by me, it is not aware of my existence at all, I wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, I don't want to spend a lot of time with this goods that do not look good, but I never thought that when I was just about to disappear inch by inch, I saw the side of the wild boar, in the grass, there was a pair of green eyes staring at the wild boar that still did not know it, still looking for food, before I could think more about what kind of animal, I could already hear the whining of animals around me, listening to the voice, you know that there are no less than three comers, and the breath is full of blood and murderous energy.

I didn't dare to move for fear of being discovered, but nervously waited for the footsteps behind me and around me to approach, because I was ready to slip away, so now my body was half-lying on my stomach, I can imagine that I should now look like a mound bag overgrown with weeds, so one of the animals that surrounded me stood on my back, dripping and crooning, watching their prey.

"I'm grass, which dog thing doesn't have long eyes? Dare to climb on the head of Tai Sui Ye and drool. I scolded in my heart, I wanted to show up and chop the things on my back, but when I saw the true face of the comer from the side with my peripheral vision, I immediately dispelled the idea just now, the body of the comer was like a dog, it squatted down, hidden in the grass, stretched out its long neck, grinned teeth, whispered, thick tapered front teeth were naked, the dorsal midline of the back of the neck was long with mane, the whole body was high at the shoulders and hips, it didn't seem to notice that I was on its side, secretly watching its every move, The beast's name was Hyena.

Although hyenas belong to the canine family, but its ferocity is not comparable to dogs, even wolves are afraid of three points, they are also the same as all dogs, belong to social mammals, although a single aggressiveness is not very strong compared to large beasts, but several with the case can not be underestimated, this thing is fierce and cold-blooded, often in the mouth of the cheetah to snatch food, is the top hunter on the grassland, sometimes tigers see them have a headache.

Hyenas don't just eat living animals, sometimes carrion, but wonderfully how these endangered predators in the animal kingdom are not supposed to live in Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and the Indian subcontinent? Because of its fierce and cruel nature, it is known as the "second brother of Africa", and usually only lions can compete with it.

Judging from the current form, I don't want to say that I slipped away, it's a bit of a problem to save my life, whether it's a big wild boar or these four hyenas, whoever attacks me, I will toss, but fortunately, I am still in the dark for them now, plus the gun given by Lan Xin, this is also my only life-saving bargaining chip, but then again, I am here to find herbs, and there will be fewer incidents, so I choose to wait and see.

Look at the big wild boar that was only looking for food, suddenly became uneasy, hummed twice and immediately noticed the danger, it was ready to run away, was suddenly blocked by the hyena that suddenly jumped out from the side, the hyena appeared and opened its mouth full of fangs and pounced on the big boar, I thought the big pig was finished playing, but this wild boar was worthy of its mighty appearance, a nose hit the hyena that attacked it, and the hyena hit the back to the sky, and the hyena around me and on the back scrambled to outflank it, Seeing this, the big wild boar suddenly burst away, and directly pounced on the hyena who had not had time to get up, and bit its neck when it opened its mouth.

Many people only know that the wild boar has thick skin and meat, and a pair of fangs are aggressive, but they don't know that its teeth are also lethal.

The other three hyenas immediately pounced on them from all corners to find a place to put down, and the big wild boar, out of the instinct of survival, seemed to have the potential to explode, and violently hit everything that could be hit with its body, whether it was a tree or a rock, or even a bulging mound of dirt, anyway, as long as it was something that could knock the hyena off its body, the wild boar did not let go.

Originally, I could have taken the opportunity to sneak away unnoticed, but who knew that the big boar had moved the battlefield to the area where I was lurking, and the hyena was knocked down by the big boar, and they were all slightly injured, and now both sides are seeing blood, blood! It can only make the hyenas excited, barking loudly one by one, dripping with haras, eyeing the tiger, surrounded by the big wild boar that is not to be outdone and panting.

The cold field of the life-and-death struggle did not last for a while, and a competitive hyena excitedly attacked, broke the deadlock, and jumped to the big wild boar that was more than twice its size.

It doesn't matter if this one is in my position, because I have been holding the shovel in my hand, unfortunately, the flying hyena smashed directly on my shovel surface, the hyena felt something was wrong as soon as it got up, it tilted its neck, and looked at me in a daze, "It's over!" This is exposed. ”

Sure enough! The hyena alertly sniffed my head with its nose and suddenly! It stepped back, squatted under its front feet, began to make an aggressive whining sound, bared its teeth, and launched an attack coldly, at the same time, I also got up at the same time, grabbed the hyena's fangs before it touched my body, picked up the soil shovel in my hand, and picked it up according to its mandible, and when the hyena did not have time to react quickly, he got up again, split its heavenly spirit cover, and let the hyena lie on the ground in two strokes, and then twitched. But although the hyena is cruel and inhumane, it is a protected animal after all, so I am still merciful and spare its dog's life.
