Chapter 33: Traces
Just when Pang Shiyuan's self-feeling reached its peak, the mountain wind suddenly changed direction, and the mountain wind that originally went from east to west became a wind blowing from west to east.
As soon as the direction of the wind changed, Pang Shiyuan smelled a strong fishy smell in the mountain wind, and his brows suddenly furrowed.
The fishy smell in this piece of freshness made Pang Shiyuan feel nauseous when he ate delicious food but ate flies, which made him very uncomfortable.
And while he was uncomfortable, he also had some vigilance.
When he was in Daizong, Pang Shiyuan did not plague the animals of Daishan, so as soon as he smelled this fishy smell, he knew that there were large beasts nearby.
This fishy smell is the breath of the large beast itself and the blood gas it has been contaminated with after hunting animals all year round, and it is not obvious to ordinary people, but he has a lot of hunting experience, and his five senses have been greatly strengthened, but he can distinguish it at once.
He turned and looked to the west, and saw that to the west of the hilltop square was a small hill with bushes on it, and he saw nothing.
If you don't see it, it doesn't mean that you don't have zĂ i.
From the moment he came to the Peak Plaza, Pang Shiyuan had already regarded this place as his training ground and coaching ground.
In the future, he will train and teach students here, and this will be his own place from now on. But if there's a big carnivorous beast here, that's not so good.
He brought people here to learn martial arts, so he had to be responsible for the safety of these people. Therefore, the big beast had to be driven away, or killed.
Without any hesitation, Pang Shiyuan walked towards Shanbao.
Yi Gao is bold, knowing that there are large beasts, Pang Shiyuan is still not afraid.
He didn't walk fast, and he acted as usual, as if he were an ordinary person. However, anyone who saw what he looked like when he practiced Daishan Fist before would not think that he was an ordinary person.
Luckily, his enemies were animals, so he didn't have to worry about animals seeing how powerful he was from his punches.
The mountain bag was not far from the edge of the square, and even if he didn't walk fast, he quickly walked up the mountain bag.
It's just that until he reached the highest point of the mountain bag, he didn't see any traces of large beasts, and naturally there would be no attacks.
Pang Shiyuan was a little puzzled, and when he turned his head to look around, he didn't find any trace of the big beast. However, the thought that this is a mountain, and the animal can avoid his sight casually, so it is not surprising that he cannot find it.
There were no large carnivores in sight, and Pang Shiyuan did not give up the search. He still wanted to know what kind of animal was infesting the area, and how much of a threat it would be.
Until the safety of the hilltop plaza is uncertain, this place is not his own place.
He began to search carefully on the mountain bag, and this is when the hunting skills practiced in Daishan in the dream world came in handy.
Soon, he discovered a strange place.
It is a bush with a large number of weeds.
Like the other thriving plants in Niutou Mountain, the bushes and weeds grew well, much taller than he remembered.
It's just that the growth of plants and trees should be towards the sky, but the weeds here have fallen down in a large area.
Clearly, something had been crushed here. And the strong smell of blood here also proves that there are indeed large beasts ambushing or resting here.
Pang Shiyuan looked more closely, and soon made another discovery.
The weed-infested ground showed signs of claws scratching so hard that the new mud turned over. It's just that Pang Shiyuan is a little puzzled that the posture of the big beast pressing the grass is a little strange.
He does not seem to be on all fours, but on two hind limbs as support, and as for the forelimbs, they move freely like a human.
He saw that the shrubs, weeds, and dirt on the side of the weeds had all been damaged. That kind of trace, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like it was made by animals on all fours. It seems that the large beast crouched on the ground like a man or an ape, which explains why these traces are so peculiar.
Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration flashed in Pang Shiyuan's mind, but when he wanted to capture it, he found that he couldn't capture it.
He sent a flute for a while, and then continued to look for clues.
Pang Shiyuan, who has hunting experience, is still very good at spotting the traces of wild beasts, and this search clue reappeared.
He found that the large beast, like a man, walked on two hind legs. This is clearly visible from the two rows of footprints on the ground.
He searched in the direction of the footprints and found a rag of clothing on a thorny bush.
The rag was already dirty, but it was still possible to see its original color, blue and white.
From the casual colors and styles of clothes, Pang Shiyuan easily thought of the hospital gowns, they were all in this style.
A large beast in a hospital gown, walking like a human?
Pang Shiyuan finally knew what the aura he couldn't capture just now was, wasn't that the legendary genetically mutated humanoid monster (mutant)?
The reason why the big beast walks on two hind limbs is because he is a human himself, and even if he is mutated, he still has human habits.
In addition to being used in hospitals, some research institutions are also using hospital gowns. As a humanoid monster with a genetic mutation, it is normal for a mutant to be studied by a research institution, and it is natural for him to wear a hospital gown.
"Could it be that the 'murderer' who has made the entire Xiangyun City nervous for several days is here?" Pang Shiyuan actually had a certain grasp in his heart, and he still wanted to go up and see what was going on.
But in the end, he gave up.
He didn't know how powerful the mutants were, but he could compare.
If he encounters a large number of policemen with guns, he doesn't know what chance he has of escaping, and I am afraid that there is a high possibility of being killed directly. But the mutant escaped, and for quite some time. It not only made the police in Xiangyun City helpless, but also killed several policemen.
As soon as the two sides were compared, Pang Shiyuan knew that this mutant was not easy to mess with.
Without adequate preparation, Pang Shiyuan didn't want to have a big war with the mutants, it was a completely unreasonable stupid act to put himself in danger.
Besides, there are so many policemen waiting under the mountain, where do you need him to stand out?
As long as the news is reported to the police, they will send troops to encircle and suppress it. If the cops can catch the mutant once, they can catch him twice.
Thinking of this, he shoved the rags of his hospital gown into his pocket, turned around and began to descend the mountain.
Hundreds of meters behind him, under the cover of tall grass, a humanoid monster wearing a hospital gown, a single horn on its head, and a mane on its neck was crouching there carefully, staring at Pang Shiyuan who turned around and left with blood-red eyes.
Its blood-red eyes were full of obvious cruelty and desire, as if it was salivating over Pang Shiyuan.
It's just that Pang Shiyuan's fierce fist technique just now made it worried, so he didn't show up to attack.
Through the dense grass, he could see a large amount of dark red blood stains on the hospital gown, and it was unknown whether it was his own, or whether it was human or animal.
