Chapter 535: Savage Mountain (1)
"Boom!"
Another flash of lightning fell from the sky, brightening the night.
At this time, when I looked again, the position where I had stood before was empty, and the person was gone. The fishy smell in the air gradually dissipated, and it was no longer smelled.
"Is it a human or a ghost?" I asked hurriedly.
Hu Lai groaned slightly, and said, "Go over and take a look." ”
I nodded, and immediately turned on the flashlight and rushed into the rain, only to see that the water on the ground was running up to my ankles, and I couldn't see the footprints at all.
Huang Mao looked at it for a while, continued to walk forward, and finally found a clear footprint in a relatively low-lying place. At this moment, the rain is pouring down, and if you come half a minute late, the footprints will be washed away.
It's people!
"Since this person is not dead, why is he still staying in Savage Mountain?" I wondered if he had enough time to leave Savage Mountain if he had escaped from Savage Mountain with the man who had written the diary.
According to the diary, this person is very secretive, and the captain of the exploration team is very secretive and refuses to reveal any information to his subordinates.
What is his role in the exploration team?
Huang Mao shook his head and was silent, obviously unable to understand the reason.
After thinking about it, I changed the question again: "Who has a fishy smell on someone, and it's so strong?" ”
Huang Mao pondered for a moment and said, "It must be someone who often comes into contact with fish, such as fishermen, fishmongers, and fish slaughtering and processing, but the premise is that it must be a person." ”
I was slightly startled, Huang Mao was still wondering, this suddenly our thing, let's call him something for the time being, is it a person.
Indeed, having footprints does not mean that you are human, and there are many things that can leave footprints.
"No matter, find an opportunity to contact Wang Jian'an, and then ask if there is such a person in the inquisition." Huang Mao Road.
I nodded, and together we went back to camp.
After resting for the night, the next day continued to step on the mud pills, and in the evening, the heavy rain that had lasted for a day and a night finally stopped.
Savage Mountain is finally in front of you, the altitude here has risen a lot, although it is still wet, but the sultry has gone a lot, and you can feel cool when the mountain wind blows.
In the dense jungle, the slope gradually increases, the drainage is smooth, and the endless mud and swamp under your feet are much harder.
Breathing in the slightly cooler air, I felt like all my pores were opening up, it was so comfortable.
These days can be regarded as miserable torture, stuffy, hot, damp, and endless muddy ground, locusts, can simply drive people crazy. The next time I came, I would no longer be on foot, and I would have to buy a helicopter to rob a bank.
Hu Lai had told me more than once that the endless swamps on the outskirts of Savage Mountain were disgusting, but I didn't pay attention to it.
This time I've seen it, and all I can describe is two words, Nima!!
"Who said this is the gate of hell, I think this is heaven, ah......" Cao Nan opened his arms and roared towards the distant mountains, sending back a burst of echoes, startling the nearby birds and beasts away.
With an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, Savage Mountain is no longer a low-lying swamp and a muddy mire, and there are more species of animals and plants, especially large beasts, which can often be seen in their infested figures.
There are also more birds in the trees, and the white crane and heron hovering on the top of the canopy, appearing and disappearing between the flowing clouds and the white mist.
There are also fewer grasshoppers, and they are no longer everywhere, most of them are mountain locusts that suck the sap of trees.
Compared with the two, this savage mountain is really a paradise, with lush vegetation, reckless canopy covering the sky and the sun, and apes crying, full of vitality.
"Shhh But Huang Mao's face changed slightly, and he said hurriedly.
I don't know why, he didn't say it was okay, but when he said it, I also felt a little uncomfortable, as if a big stone had been pressed on my chest, heavy.
Cao Nan was stunned for a moment, hurriedly covered his mouth, and said, "What's the situation, is there anything wrong?" ”
"I can't say, but Savage Mountain is definitely not heaven." Huang Mao said solemnly, and said: "The legend of the gate of hell is by no means in vain. ”
"Something's coming." At this time, Feng Daniu hurriedly said.
"Where?"
We were all taken aback and hurriedly asked.
After entering the dense forest, Feng Da Niu continued to adapt to his wood attribute Yuan Force, and his senses became more and more acute, especially after entering the Savage Mountain, he could sense it as long as there was something nearby that touched the branches and plants.
Feng Da Niu pointed in a direction and said, "Four hooves, it should be a beast, coming right in front of us." ”
We looked in that direction, and after a while, sure enough, something black came towards us, and when we saw it, it was actually a wild boar, very large, with a strong mane.
It also saw us, and had no intention of running away, but instead roared and warned us.
"This is the Boar King, patrolling the territory and treating us as enemies." Xiong Da Urn said angrily, he had a lot of experience in fighting wild beasts.
I nodded, the wild boar king is very powerful, the vitality is very tenacious, the skin is rough and the flesh is thick, there is explosiveness and endurance, the tiger has to take a detour when he sees it, and dares to fight with the wolves for territory.
Naturally, it is impossible for us to retreat, not only do we not retreat, but our eyes are still shining, and after two or three days of soaked dry food, the smell of birds has long faded out of our mouths.
How can you return the one who sent a tooth sacrifice?
"Roar!"
Seeing that the threat and warning were useless, the boar king roared, stroked his hooves, and rushed towards us with red eyes.
……
Half an hour later, it was on our barbecue grill, dead to sight.
The sky is gradually getting dark, tomorrow is the night of the full moon, Lu Ningxiang and I will meet, we should come to find myself, even so, there is no need to explore anything, just wait, just take a rest.
The king boar was big, rough-skinned, and thick-skinned, and we roasted it for hours before it was cooked, and that was our ration tonight until tomorrow night.
Everyone feasted, a mouthful of wine and a mouthful of meat, eating a mouth full of oil, especially Xiong Da, these days he is hungry is the locusts want to eat, a knife to cut off the pig's head, open the mouth to bite, we are speechless for a while.
After a full meal, the wild boar disappeared by less than a fifth, which was too big to eat that much.
Huang Mao put a few drops of shark oil in the bonfire, so as to ensure that the bonfire is not extinguished, and a drop can burn for several years and decades, which is the lamp oil of the ever-bright lamp.
After that, we were ready to spend the night, but before we could sleep, suddenly a mist sprayed down from the Savage Mountain, sweeping towards us.
Suddenly it was white, and the visibility did not exceed twenty meters.
"What's the situation?" Cao Nan was taken aback.
"Gather together and don't separate, this fog is weird." Huang Mao's face changed, and he hurriedly said.
We immediately gathered together, each staring back to back in one direction, concentrating on vigilance, this fog was indeed wrong, it was coming too fast, like a demon fog.
"Goo-dong...... Gollum ...... Gollum ......"
At that moment, I suddenly heard the sound of my heartbeat, which was vague at first, but slowly became clearer and clearer, like the sound of my own heartbeat in great danger.
The devil's heartbeat!
I had a chill down my spine, which was recorded in my diary as the man who had been here.
"Heartbeat?!" Cao Nan was also surprised.
"It's coming from the very center of Savage Mountain." Feng Da Niu said.
"Shh
At this time, Huang Mao hurriedly made a silent gesture to us, and then pointed to the barbecue grill.
When we saw it, our eyes widened.
The roasted corpse of the boar king was emitting a glowing white mist, very slowly, but continuously, and it was clearly different from the surrounding fog.
Immediately afterwards, the mist became more and more condensed, and it gradually manifested the figure of the wild boar king, its head was gone, and a lot of meat on its body was also missing, exactly like the wild boar king on the barbecue grill, and the color gradually turned black.
At first glance, it looks like there are two identical wild boar kings that have been grilled.
The next moment, something amazing happened, the manifested Wild Boar King actually moved, pulled his legs and ran towards the wind direction of the main peak of Savage Mountain, and disappeared in a few clicks, with a unique aroma of barbecue.
A few of us looked at each other and spat out two words at the same time: ghost.
This is what I saw with my own eyes, how the dead corpses of Savage Mountain turned into ghosts.
