Chapter 8: The Old Man
We immediately stopped and turned back, and at the same time someone screamed.
This scream was like a ghost, and we only saw a mess over there, and we didn't know what was going on. We were stunned for a moment, and immediately picked up the guy and ran to the place where we screamed.
Not far away, I could only hear the dogs barking wildly, and I couldn't tell why they were barking in the shadows of the trees. Ah Gui asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Beware! There's something in the grass! The man in front shouted. The forest on the side of the call, as if something was moving quickly through the bushes, it was very loud, it seemed to be a large animal.
Ah Gui picked up his gun and fired a shot, but he couldn't really see it anywhere, and the thunderous gunfire startled all the birds in the distance, and the animal ran wildly and disappeared into the darkness.
We rushed to them, and a few of the mountain people also rushed over, and the flashlight swept around the forest, only to see the bushes shaking all the way, and Guima shouted, "Let the dogs out!" ”
A few hunters whistled, and the hounds rushed out, and the momentum was completely different from that of the pet dogs in the city, and the front was messed up, and the sound of bushes rubbing and dog barking was incessant. Ah Gui and the others immediately followed, several of them should have experience in hunting, yelled a few times in the local dialect, dispersed and ran into the forest with the dog.
We wanted to follow, but Gui turned around and yelled at the clouds, but the clouds stopped us and said don't follow, they couldn't take care of us. The hunter can't shoot casually when the light is dark, and the beast may hurt people if he is in a hurry. Wild beasts, especially leopards, are very ferocious, and if they are caught, they will be seriously injured, so we have to be extra careful, we are inexperienced and it is easy to have accidents, and I don't know how to hunt, and it is also a mess to help.
Naturally, I refused, and my heart said that if you want to talk about your skills, the stuffy oil bottle will cause you trouble? After chasing a few steps forward, I realized that what she said was another matter.
The hounds were well trained, and the three of them formed a separate formation, and rushed in front of the thing, which was surrounded and immediately turned and ran back, and behind them were several hunters who were surrounding. Dogs and people are in front of each other, just forming a situation of encirclement. This requires everyone in the encirclement to have experience, otherwise the prey may find a breakthrough point and escape.
Ah Gui kept shouting, so that the prey could not figure out the situation, did not know which direction to flee, and could only keep turning back in the encirclement. At the same time, the hunters raised their shotguns and kept shrinking the encirclement. This is the way to hunt wild boars, and I've seen similar situations in my hometown before, and this is the way to hunt slightly larger animals.
We haven't seen the real situation of hunting for too long, we watched with bated breath, Agui and they got closer and closer, and soon the prey had entered the range of the shotgun, but the prey kept moving, and the flashlight could not be locked. The hunting dogs here are medium-sized dogs, and the most hunted animals are small animals such as pheasants and hares, so they don't dare to rush there. If it was a big dog hunting wolf hunting in the north, in the form of a one-to-three, it would have rushed to hand-to-hand combat a long time ago.
After grinding for a long time, they didn't shoot, the general prey will make mistakes at this time, and will suddenly rush in a certain direction, once they get close to the hunter who is ready, the hunter will shoot at close range, and then the hound will chase after it, and this thing will basically not escape. But this one not only did not break through immediately, but gradually calmed down, and within two clicks, it lurked in the grass and didn't know where to hide. In this way, Ah Gui and they did not dare to approach.
I looked at these very surprised, and said in my heart, it's amazing, anti-guest-oriented, what the hell is this, so cunning, is it a big fox?
But how old does a fox have to be to attack people, is this just the Schwarzenegger of foxes?
Ah Gui took a few photos and was really unsure, this group of hunters was not the previous mountain jīng who had been begging for a living in the mountains all their lives, and they lacked some experience and had no good way, so they shouted at the clouds to take stones and smash the prey out. I looked up at him and found that his face had changed at some point, and his eyes did not look at the hunting place, but at the back of Ah Gui, and shouted: "Watch your back!" ”
I followed and looked, and found that the grass behind Ah Gui was rippling, as if it was blown by the wind, but there was no wind around, and it seemed that something was gradually moving closer to Ah Gui in the grass.
Ah Gui immediately turned around, and the ripples stopped in a flash.
"What's that?" I wondered, "Another one?" ”
"It's not." The stuffy oil bottle looked around and said coldly. I swept my flashlight around, and immediately noticed that the grass in the distance around me was flooded with several strange ripples, converging towards us.
Where have the hunters here seen such a scene, they were dumbfounded, but the girl Yuncai was the first to react, and immediately whistled and called the dog back.
I shouted for them to gather together, and several people gathered together, and when they looked closely at the movement around them, they saw that the ripples were like waves in the grass, flickering and flickering.
The three hounds sensed the strangeness of the situation more than we did, barking and irritable in all directions. A few ripples gradually approached us in irregular motion, and although I was not afraid, I inevitably became nervous, and my heart was like a drum.
"Come among us." Ah Gui said to Yuncai, but he couldn't figure out what the situation was. However, it is true that the mountain people are fierce, and none of them are afraid, several people have put their guns up, and they can't take care of us at this time, so I took a stone as a weapon, looked at the surrounding environment, and said, "There is too much grass here, let's retreat to the ancient tomb on the hillside." ”
A few people immediately set off, and walked quickly towards the mountain while jǐngti, but I didn't expect that as soon as we moved, those few ripples immediately surrounded me, and they were more than thirty years away from me? and then disappeared all at once. We barely had time to panic and didn't take the right path, but went straight down the slope.
The mud was all wet, and a few men went, and as soon as the clouds came, they broke their feet and slid down several meters. I pulled it, and my feet slipped, and the mud under my feet collapsed.
Stuffy Oil Bottle and Ah Gui stopped to pull me, and the distance between the team was a few meters. The weeds on the hillside were as dense as a curtain, and I heard the sound of grass stalks being trampled all around me, and I immediately felt a strong sense of unease.
After being pulled up, I went to look for the clouds, and the clouds were already crying in pain when their feet were broken, and I was so cold in a cold sweat that my legs didn't obey the call, and I gritted my teeth and pushed away the grass to help the clouds to the hillside, where the mud had collapsed into a pit. I gave her a push on her little buttocks, and the stuffy oil bottle pulled her away with one hand.
I crawled a few times and found that I was too heavy, and if no one pushed me behind my ass, the mud would not be able to take my weight and collapse, so I tried to go around to the side. I didn't expect people to drink cold water on their backs and stuff their teeth, and after a few steps, the mud under my feet collapsed again, and I fell down the hillside and slipped several meters. Struggling to get up, I heard Tou Agui yelling, "Run!" Run! ”
Listening to the voice, I instinctively knew that he must have seen something, and immediately moved to the left, and heard Ah Gui shouting again: "Wrong! Not over there! "Suddenly I saw the grass in front of me move, and then I saw a small calf-sized animal, with white eyes and white forehead, like a leopard and not a leopard, leaning out of the grass, with two green eyes shining with cold light, and a face with hideous eyebrows, like a fierce demon in a Peking Opera mask.
As soon as I looked at it, I knew what it was, and I was amazed that it was a lynx.
The lynx is a large cat, smaller than the leopard and much larger than the cat, and the face of this feline is like that of a monster, and the evil and vicious are all in the face. The most obvious difference between a lynx and a leopard is that the lynx has two very long coarse hairs on its ears, like the flower feathers in Peking Opera.
This thing has a very high IQ, and although it likes to live alone, it also hunts cooperatively when food is scarce, and it is the only cat that can hunt in groups other than lions. In xīzàng, the large lynx is called the "forest demon", and it is said that it will take the young woman xìng back to the nest and give her tail, but because of the relationship between the fur, it is almost killed in modern times. How did it appear in Guangxi, where poaching is so serious?
If it's a lynx, it can explain why Daddy Panma was attacked and didn't die, the lynx is like a cat and likes to play with its prey until it is exhausted and then killed. And xìng Ge is extremely cautious and will not easily fight hand-to-hand.
On the other side of me, another lynx poked its head out. This one was bigger, and at the same time the head was falling into the mud, and the stuffy oil bottle had come down from the surface and slid to my side. Gui's hunting knife is in his hand. Immediately after the stuffy oil bottle came down, he grabbed me and said, "Step on my back." "He's cut the railroad.
"Ah, that's embarrassing." I didn't react for a moment.
"Come!" Agui yelled, covered with cold sweat.
Felines like to attack the throat of their prey, one blow kills, I shrunk my neck, my heart said that I was not welcome, pulled a few mud, stepped on the shoulder of the stuffy oil bottle, the stuffy oil bottle suddenly raised and sent me away. Agui took my hand, I kicked and kicked randomly to stabilize the hillside, suddenly heard a cloud scream, and suddenly jumped out of the grass below a behemoth, jumping on the hillside to borrow strength. I just watched a "giant cat" step on the splashing mud flowers, almost flying in front of me.
Agui let go of his hand in the opposite condition, and I fell down at once, and the volley was bitten.
Luckily, the lynx was too small to push me to the ground, so I fell into the grass and rolled down for several meters, then kicked it so hard that it was kicked out, and when I got up, I saw that my shoulder was almost bitten through.
All the grass around me was almost moving, and the one I kicked away had just returned to its attacking stance and pounced on me again.
I didn't have any time to be scared and frightened, and the past few years of exploration had given me a strong survival instinct, and I was knocked down as soon as I clung to my throat, and I rolled down the hill with a tumbling face.
This roll is really dark, and after I get up, I don't care about 3721, I stumble and run. Ah Gui in the back had already released their guns, and I couldn't tell the direction clearly, so I kept rushing to the depths of the valley. I heard a gust of wind behind me after running a few meters, and I knew that it was coming, and I must not let the back of my head out, and the skull would be bitten through directly, so I immediately turned around.
Almost as soon as I turned around, I saw a black shadow chasing after me with lightning speed, and I couldn't estimate the speed at all, and it was in front of me in a blink of an eye. After my heart was finished, I definitely didn't have time to defend after this time I was knocked down, and I closed my eyes and waited for death under the conditions.
My eyes were not completely closed, and in the blink of an eye, suddenly the grass around me parted, and then the cold light flashed, and a figure rushed out of the grass like lightning, and hugged the black shadow.
The black shadow was extremely fierce, and the two shadows collided together and flipped out so far that I couldn't react at all, as if in a dream. Only the roars and moans of the lynx were heard, and the grass was in chaos.
After some time, the grass fell silent, and a dark figure rose from inside. I breathed a sigh of relief, and the figure walked out into the moonlight, and I realized that it was a thin strange old man, covered in blood, and carrying a hunting knife peculiar to Yao Miao, and the great lynx was carried on its back, and seemed to have lost its breath.
He walked up to me, was stunned when he saw me, and asked me in the local dialect, I didn't know what he said, just subconsciously shook his head, and said in his heart Who is this god grandfather? And the next second, I saw an even more surprising picture - I saw the old man's body, and there was a black sè unicorn tattooed on it.
Antlers dragon scales, stepping on fire and foehn wind, are the same as those of stuffy oil bottles.
