Volume 5 The Land of Gold Chapter 20 Gunshots at Midnight
Around the fire, they all seemed to be quite interested, so that the conversation lasted for a long time, halfway, Liu Jing and I because of the first time in the real forest overnight, not very comfortable and entered the tent early to rest, leaving only the six of them are still full of interest as if there are endless words, and even I who listened to those conversations in a daze and fell asleep, I felt that the dream was full of pictures of their conversation, so weird.
I opened my eyes slightly and saw the two people outside the tent, only to realize that I had completely forgotten that I needed to be guarded by someone to spend the night in the forest, and I thought that I was ashamed and sleepy in my mind, so I hurriedly climbed out of the tent, rubbed my eyes, and sat down next to the monkey and the fat man who were keeping vigil.
When the fat man saw me coming, he jokingly asked, "Boy, what's wrong?" Having a nightmare? ”
I quickly shook my head when I heard this, and replied embarrassedly, "I'll keep vigil, you two haven't slept until now, and you need to rest for a while." ”
When the fat man saw me sit down, he handed me a cigarette and looked at the monkey with a smile, "When I first started to work for my career, I often didn't fit my eyes for three days and three nights in a row, even if I had time to sleep for a while, I couldn't sleep at all because of the things I was worried about. Now such a distraction-free vigil is simply too happy compared to that kind of time. I know you young people love to sleep, so hurry back to the tent, we have received your wishes. ”
Well, the fat man's words are all on this, if I really go back to sleep now, I'm afraid I'll have to look down on them completely, but I think they may be because they don't worry about my vigil, maybe they really don't sleep, no matter what, since I'm up, it's better to insist on it, after all, there are still many nights in the future, and I can't hide in the tent to rest until the end.
With this in mind, I glanced at my watch and changed the subject, "It's already one o'clock, and it seems that I can spend the night safely, except that the forest is pitch black, but it is not as terrifying as I thought before I came." ”
Hearing this, the fat man turned his head and glanced into the distance, "Of course, it is best to spend the night in the forest without accidents." The 100,000 mountains have never been fully exploited by humans since they existed, and there are countless species of animals living in them, most of them have never seen humans, and it is the time for them to come out to forage for food at night, but in general, unless they encounter a really hungry beast, they will not take the initiative to provoke humans. But remember that you must always be humble in front of nature, otherwise you will not know how you will die. ”
The monkey smiled, "I said fat, can't you talk well?" I have to scare Xiaohua. Saying that, he turned towards me, "Xiaohua, don't care, over the years, the fat man has become more and more boring, just listen to his words." ”
I was about to say that it was okay, when suddenly, a gunshot, almost exactly the same as I had seen on TV, rang out in the distance, but if it was far away, it wouldn't go far by listening to it.
Hearing the gunshots, the fat man and the monkey took refuge behind the tree, but I was a beat slower and took cover when the fat man shouted to the man asleep in the tent. (To be continued......)
