A group of more than 50 men walked on the desolate wilderness with bulging bags on their backs, and without modern means of transportation, the speed of walking was always a little slow. The atmosphere was a little silent, except for Ah Yihui observing the terrain from time to time and pointing out the direction, very few people spoke.

The land was so desolate that there was almost no living creature in sight, except for the occasional patch of green rooted in the scorched earth, growing strongly.

Everyone's expressions were serious, they looked around, or clenched the weapons in their hands, which made Zhou He, just like them, assemble the large sniper weapon under Ah Yi's teaching, and carry it on his back.

"It's not supposed to be safe here, so they're all so wary."

He guessed.

In the meantime, the team rested on the spot for a while, ate some jerky, and began to move on, according to a rough estimate, it should be about three o'clock in the afternoon at this moment, and it has been walking for a long time, and there are relatively more green plants in the eyes, but some are not very presentable, as pitiful as a few heads emerging from a bald head.

"I've never been here, it's a strange hunting ground."

The leader Ah Yi squatted down and carefully observed the ground, and Zhou He followed behind him, following Ah Yi's gaze.

There were some plant debris on the ground, like debris that had been chewed up by some animal, and a large lump of dry and hard excrement. The footprints on the ground were scary, the size of a basin, and they must have been the footprints of a giant creature.

Ah Yi's eyes stared ahead, as if he was thinking, and then beckoned to the team: "Find a quiet place to spend the night, and then go tomorrow." ”

At this time, Zhou He looked at the sky and realized that the sky was already dark, and it was indeed time to find a place to rest.

So the group found a low-lying place on the high ground, left a few people to take turns on duty, and then put the heavy leather blanket on their bodies and lay down on the ground.

The fifteenth dug a pit on the side, made a fire, and everyone gathered in a circle, took out the jerky in the package, and baked it on the fire.

"What kind of creature could that be?"

Zhou He sat next to Ah Yi, took a bite of the dry and hard jerky, chewed it hard, and swallowed it.

"Creatures?"

Ah Yi used a dagger to cut the dried meat into pieces and stuffed it into his mouth, while tasting the strange words that came out of Zhou He's mouth: "Cow, it should be a cow." ”

He said, also a little uncertain, but nodded again, thinking that he was right.

"How can there be such a big cow?"

He was a little surprised, as if he was choked by the food in his mouth, and hurriedly took a sip of water and gestured with his hand: "Such a big footprint, how can it be a cow?" ”

Will there be a cow bigger than an elephant?

Zhou He was a little uncertain, but he remained skeptical.

"Is it big? Isn't that big a cow? ”

Ah Yi glanced at him with some puzzlement: "It's so big?" ”

The topic was a little incoherent, and Zhou He began to realize that the basic insights and experiences of more than a hundred years ago did not seem to be useful here, and the collision of the worldview of the two centuries may not be a spark, or it may be a misunderstanding.

"Is Ah Yi wrong, or is he wrong?"

Zhou He's heart was a little shaken, maybe.

The atmosphere fell silent again, the dark night blurred the faces of the people, only a pile of embers still flashed scarlet, and the snoring began to sound one after another, or someone said in a dream, or someone grinded his teeth.

"Sleep."

Zhou He tightened the leather blanket wrapped around his body, next to the embers, greedy for that trace of warmth.

Early in the morning, everyone hastily cleaned up and stepped on the cold dew of the early morning. Along the way, I gradually realized that this desolate land finally had a little more life, and green plants gradually began to emerge one after another.

After another day and a night of travel, Ah Yi seemed to have made a new discovery.

"Ahead, there should be water."

Ah Yi squatted on the ground, staring at the excrement left by some kind of creature on his fingertips, still a little wet. Then he fixed his gaze on the chaotic footprints on the ground: "There will be a lot of big guys ahead." ”

He said with certainty, his dark and bright eyes carrying the certainty that he had finally found his goal.

"Everybody's ready."

Ah Yi shook his hand, wiped his body, and grabbed the handle of the gun. His solemn expression made Zhou He understand that this hunt might not be too easy. Subconsciously flicked the bolt of the gun, pulled it down again, and held the handle tightly. Tell yourself that you are prepared for any danger that may arise.

The team continued to move forward, slowing down a lot, probably already in the hunting range, so it was much more cautious. The green plants in front of me are gradually lush, like a green screen spread out, making people feel like they have passed through the barren desert to the illusion of an oasis, no, it is not an illusion, this is the oasis, a giant banyan tree that can only be surrounded by a few people stretches out the canopy, like a giant umbrella that will cover everyone, many plant canopies seem to have been chewed by some creature, and the ground is sprinkled with the stumps and broken leaves that have been ravaged.

Looking up at the sky, it seemed that the sun was getting more abundant, causing these plants to grow in reverse of nature's luxuriant growth. The fresh air makes people feel refreshed from the inside out, and it invigorates people's spirits. Ah Yi took the lead in finding a high ground, and under his instructions, scattered and lurked, quietly waiting for the arrival of the prey. There is no great skill, not even a simple trap, as if there is no prey to come, it depends on luck. It's not a clever way to hunt.

Zhou He thought to himself, and also quietly crouched in a natural low-lying tunnel, brushed away the weeds in front of him with his hands, learned Ah Yi's movements, pulled out the rhizomes of plants similar to licorice from the soil, carefully plucked off the soil on it, and then put it in his mouth and chewed.

"It tastes a little fishy."

He thought.

"Here we are."

Ah Yi gently knocked the mossy stones on the side with the handle of the gun, making a 'bang' sound to remind everyone.

Zhou He followed Ah Yi's gaze and swept between the branches of the trees, although he didn't find anything appearing, he had already noticed a slight sound, it was not an illusion.

Ah Yi pressed his ears to the ground, the sound of "boom" and "boom" seemed to be very close, he casually twisted a small stone and put it on a relatively smooth stone, quietly observed, felt its trembling.

Gradually, Zhou He also felt that the ground under him seemed to be trembling slightly, and the sound became more and more intense, the sound was like a drum, beating people's hearts, and the blood was retracted with that rhythm.

"Moo!"

For a moment, he felt his lungs tighten and his heart beat wildly.

"Oh my God!"

A strong feeling of vertigo surged over his head, and a strong electric current flowed through his body.

How can there be such a huge "cow"?

The ideas he had adhered to were shattered at this moment. All imagination is subverted, if it is not an illusion, what you see in front of you is a real 'cow'.

It slammed in like a heavy truck, and the plants and trees that stood in its way were broken by the waist or trampled to pieces by its huge hooves.

The cow was five meters tall, and was covered with a layer of black secretions condensed into a substance similar to the thyroid layer, like a thick gray armor, but there were many cracks on it, and the depth of the cracks revealed the scarlet flesh inside, and there were many blood-colored sarcomas of various sizes, with many wriggling maggots on it, and a pair of huge horns that seemed to be bone-white as if they were suffering from albinism.

It was in a state of rage, its lantern-sized eyes bloodshot scarlet, its nostrils exhaling a white mist-like breath, and a roar of rage.

"Oh my God! Is this our prey? ”

Zhou He lay on the ground, his palms oozing slippery sweat. It's simply ······ He began to sense the danger here, and understood why, the people of the village lived in such a desolate area, no one could withstand the impact of this huge creature, and the earth seemed to tremble.

Zhou He took a deep breath, put his index finger horizontally to his mouth, and bit it down hard with his teeth, refreshing his spirits. He carefully adjusted his posture and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the behemoth, and he began to feel a certain kind of excitement that seemed to give him indescribable power, and the fear in his mind gradually was banished, and his body quickly warmed up.

"Wait."

A familiar voice came to my ears, it was Ah Yi. He stared ahead, his expression more solemn than ever.

"Ghoul!"

He exhaled deeply, and the situation in front of him seemed to make him feel intractable. Zhou He also felt the subtle commotion from his companions around him. Taking his focused gaze away from the behemoth, he saw ······ A group of barely strangled, primitive weapons made of improvised bone in their hands, were chasing the massive ox.

In other words, they are the culprits who make it so angry and irritable?
