Chapter Seventy-Six: Bitten

""="('"="">

Ye Qiu, as his name suggests, was born in the depths of autumn, has a quiet nature, a quiet meaning, and would rather be lonely than go against his heart

He is a strange person, Feng Qiyun can't help but secretly look at this person again, his skills are by no means just what he showed in the afternoon, this person is even above himself.

The night sky of the prairie is silent, and this beauty makes them forget the difficulties and dangers that they may encounter tomorrow.

The sky of this grassland is changing, last night was still full of stars, but today it has become cloudy. Kasang said that they could not enter the valley in rainy weather, so they had to wait where they were. The fat man and Feng Qiyun were drinking barley wine, and the dog of Kasang caught a hare, this dog was very strange, and disappeared when he was by the lake early yesterday morning, and Feng Qiyun said that it could be ...... But Kasang said that his dog was very clever, and sure enough, last night the guy came out of nowhere, with prey in his mouth.

Roasting that thing is the fat man's strong point, and the internal organs and head are rewarded to the mastiff Badu, and Kasang said that you must bring the dog when you enter the canyon, otherwise it is easy to get lost, and there are countless forks in the road.

At noon, the sky began to clear again, and the grassland after the rain exuded a unique fragrance, and a few beautiful butterflies flew around their tents, as if everything was a good sign.

Let's go, crossing that dividing line is your journey, and for thousands of years, no one has been able to come out unharmed. The Eight Dows were also put on a rope by Kasang, where even the smartest mastiff could not be careless. The mud of the ground under his feet makes it not so comfortable to walk, and the moment he crossed the dividing line, Cha Wenbin glanced back lightly: Farewell, that familiar world.

The canyon is flanked by rolling hills, not high, without vegetation, and bare rocks and a small amount of weeds fill with a desolation. The bottom of the canyon was completely different, a small river that was not wide, and beside the river was the same fat aquatic plants, and from far away the fat man saw a flock of unnamed birds fluttering in it. Walking along the river, his father was killed five kilometers in the canyon, and he heard from the rescuers that there were rocks there in the upper reaches of the river.

So far, the biggest enemy they have encountered is the locust, there are so many locusts here, almost everyone has been bitten a few times on the leg after walking less than a kilometer, and the shoes are all sticky blood, and the fat man picked off the biggest one from the back of the wind and clouds is even with his slap. The fat man complained that if he couldn't go on like this, he would be sucked dry, so as a last resort, Cha Wenbin smeared it on everyone's body with sulfur mixed with cinnabar, and the smell was a little unpleasant, but the effect was still there.

The first large animal they saw was a black goat with a white beard, and it was walking down a steep hillside. Cha Wenbin said that the sheep was licking the salt on the stones, and since there was something alive, it would not be too dangerous. But not long after he said this, the goat fell down before his eyes......

"Look! Look! That's it! The fat man exclaimed, and the goat had a huge black and white "bucket" wrapped around its neck, which only rolled on the hillside and disappeared.

Feng Qiyun frowned and said, "It's a snake!" Be careful, this thing can imitate human voices! ”

Fat man Daqi: "And this kind of thing? ”

Cha Wenbin said: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas? The Zhongshan Sutra records that "Kunlun is three hundred miles to the west, in which there are many snakes, its shape is like a human face, and the jackal body, the wings of birds and snakes, its sound is like a cry, see its big water." It should be the snake that Brother Feng described, and now it seems to be a large python, and it is said that it is the only snake that does not need to hibernate, and like humans, it is warm-blooded. ”

Feng Qiyun said: "In ancient times, it was said that when you see a snake, you will have a big flood, this day you can change it, we can't stay in the low-lying place for a long time, looking at the rocks on both sides of the river beach, there must be frequent flash floods, if it is a heavy rain, we can also die in this mountain wilderness." ”

Kasang looked at the mountains on both sides, gestured with his hand, and said, "The left side is slightly higher than the right side, or go along the hill on the left." ”

"Will there be worms on the mountain...... "The fat man is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he is afraid of one thing: snakes! Anyway, since he was a child, his legs trembled when he saw this thing, and in order to avoid nervousness, he called the snake a long worm.

Feng Qiyun happily patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't you have a gun, gun god!" ”

The mountains here are all bare, and the altitude is high enough, but the temperature is much warmer than outside, and there is no snow on the top of the mountain, and there are a few grains of black rock, and there are many barb-like red rocks in them, which can pierce the shoes when stepped on. Feng Qiyun said, these black stones are volcanic stones, and the red ones are diamonds, and the fat man said that if you want so many diamonds, won't they all get rich? Feng Qiyun said that this kind of stone is not valuable, that is, it is hard, and it is the same composition as glass, but it is particularly fragile.

When you go up the hill, your view widens, and you can see that there are many tributaries on both sides of the winding river, and the main stream is not far ahead, under the valley, where there is a turn, and the view is obscured and you can no longer see it.

There are natural scenery all the way, and there is no trace of man-made in sight. The big snake that caused the shadow to the fat man just now did not appear, and scattered birds flew through the air from time to time, the more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they are, these people who have experienced life and death understand the truth best, no one dares to relax, no one can relax.

Feng Qiyun said: "Brother Cha, do you look at this ravine a little like a dragon?" ”

"Dragons?" Cha Wenbin was puzzled, he really didn't see it.

Feng Qiyun pointed to the black mountains on both sides and said, "Look, this is the belly of the dragon, and the one in the middle is the dragon's backbone, but it is just a dead dragon. If you look at those tributaries, it doesn't look like it's ribs, and if this mountain doesn't have this ditch, it's a real dragon, it's a pity. ”

was described by him like this, Cha Wenbin felt a little similar, and suddenly felt ashamed: "Brother Feng is amazing, I, a layman, can only find a dragon wrapped in skin, Brother Feng's eyes can actually recognize the five internal organs of this dragon, so the place where we want to rest tonight is not at the throat of the dragon?" ”

Feng Qiyun nodded and said, "That's right, and it's the place where the knife is stabbed, and a knife will be pierced from there." He gestured his hand down his throat until he reached his navel, and his mouth "smacked". Somehow, his description made Cha Wenbin suddenly feel very uncomfortable, and he looked at it fixedly, his lips were slightly upturned, and there was an indescribable evil aura.

The most frightening thing for the fat man still happened, a small white snake more than a foot long was basking in the sun on a big rock, it was lazily coiled in a circle, the fat man and Kasang took the lead, and tried to use the stone to drive the snake away several times but did not move.

The fat man knelt down to it, folded his hands and bowed to it: "Mother, little ancestor, can you make a way?" ”

Kasang said that it was a plateau rock snake, not poisonous, and he said that he could walk around it directly, but the fat man refused to live or die. As soon as these two people were delayed in front, the team behind them was blocked, and Cha Wenbin saw that it was a small snake lying here, so he said to Ye Qiu: "Qiu'er, if you go and get rid of it, just don't kill it." ”

Ye Qiu nodded, walked over to the little snake and gently pushed it with Han Yue, but the snake still didn't move, he simply picked it up with a knife and was about to throw it aside, the snake hung lazily on the back of its knife, and he didn't even bother to roll his body. Ye Qiu moved the knife slightly to the right, ready to throw the snake below the valley, but at this moment, the small snake that was originally vertical suddenly arched, revealing its pitch-black mouth and shooting towards Ye Qiu's arm.

It's so fast! When Cha Wenbin saw this sudden change, his heart suddenly rose to his throat. At this time, it was too late for Ye Qiu to shake off, so he could only grab the little snake with his left hand. I only felt a pain in the tiger's mouth, it turned out that the snake bit it back, Ye Qiu's eyes were dark, and he almost knelt down on the spot, and before he fell, he still turned Han Yue over, and the snake body coiled on the knife was immediately broken into two.

Ye Qiu was bitten by a snake! His arms turned jet black in an instant, and Cha Wenbin looked at the two blood holes in his tiger's mouth and immediately understood that this snake was highly poisonous!

The fat man shook the iron-faced Kasang like crazy: "Didn't you say that this is a non-poisonous snake!" Kasang didn't say a word, he didn't dare to speak, indeed, in his impression, this is the ordinary plateau rock snake, when he was young, he even caught it as a ** thing, and never heard of any herdsman or cattle and sheep being injured by this snake.

Feng Qiyun gently picked open the tongue that was still writhing with a knife, and the fangs inside were bent back, a full three or four centimeters. He frowned and watched as the pattern on the snake's body slowly turned black, "This snake can disguise, you can see that not only the color has changed, but even the body has become much smaller." ”

The little snake that was cut in half by Ye Qiu was now the thickness of chopsticks, and its color was dark throughout, which was no different from the rock. Feng Qiyun affirmed: "This thing will be disguised, disguised as a non-venomous rock snake, it seems that we have walked into the snake's nest, if they do not change color and mix with these stones, it will be too easy to be tricked." ”

Cha Wenbin was already sweating profusely, he gently cut Ye Qiu's wound with his head, and strangled his arm again, the fat man kept squeezing hard, and large balls of black blood kept flowing out of his tiger's mouth. Tiger mouth and heart, it is very dangerous to be bitten in this position, Ye Qiu's face has turned blue and purple now, and the fat man looked at Feng Qiyun who had been hanging around with his head down, and he couldn't help but start to get angry: "You are a good person who has nothing to do with yourself, what's the use of talking so much nonsense, hurry up and think about it!" ”
