Chapter 63: Trapped in a Corner
As soon as his voice fell, the four of us slammed open the car door and rushed out without saying a word. The moment we rushed out, there were a lot of man-eating ants on the car door that fell down and fell on people's heads or necks, not to mention the man-eating ants on the ground, brushing along our legs and trying to climb up.
Fortunately, we were prepared, and while running, the torches in our hands were sweeping, and these ants burned when they caught fire, and for a while the air was full of the smell of being burned. Although there is fire, it is inevitable that there are still some fish that have slipped through the net and crawl around on the body, and there are not many of them, although the bite hurts a little, but it cannot cause any substantial damage.
We broke out of the encirclement, and when we looked back, we saw that our Humvee had already become worms, and the dense man-eating ants had crawled all over the body, and the thought of us just hiding in such a car made people shudder.
As we ran, the man-eating ants were suddenly alarmed, rushed down like a tidal wave, and all of them chased after us. The four of us didn't bother to look too much, and we ran wildly towards the open field with torches, and the man-eating ant colony behind us gave a scalp-tingling brushing sound, chasing after us.
Hari Chagai's body is very flexible, like a monkey, he looked like he didn't care before, who knew that when he got out of the car, he was the fastest to run his legs. Zhen Rui and I followed, and Tofu followed at the end, shouting in his mouth: "Ahh ”
I looked back and saw that the man-eating ants were only four or five meters away from the tofu, so I quickly yelled, "Throw your equipment bag away, speed up." Tofu unbuckled while running, and suddenly shouted: "I'm cāo, what kind of inferior goods are this, I can't understand it too tightly!" ”
I stumbled under my feet, vomited blood, and scolded: "You deserve it, wait to be gnawed." ”
Tofu spread his feet and chased after us, howling: "Don't leave me......" Running for his life, a bend suddenly appeared in front of him, and Hari Chagai's figure disappeared without a trace as soon as he turned, and I and Zhen Rui hurriedly followed, but saw that behind the bend, there were some red sandstones, seven or eight meters high, as if blocking our way.
"I'm cāo." Hari Chagai scolded a swear word, and I was shocked, and I reacted violently, shouting: "Quick, stop a wall of fire." ”
Tofu caught up at this moment and immediately put the torch on the ground, and I and Yuan Rui also quickly put the torch to the ground, forming a wall of fire in front of it, temporarily blocking the invasion of man-eating ants. Tofu scolded Hari Chagai and said, "Hongmao, that's how you led the way, God who led us to death." ”
Without waiting for Hari Chagai to speak, I shouted, "Stop arguing, get all the fuel." "Because I found that the front of these man-eating ants was blocked by the flames, and after retreating for a while, we continued to climb this way from the sandstone on the side, and in desperation, we had to re-erect the torches with solid fuel and sweep all the man-eating ants that crawled from the side.
At this time, Hari Chagai said: "You hold on first, and I'll crawl over and take a look." With that, he rubbed his hands and climbed up the sandstone seven or eight meters high behind him. There are holes and raised stones in this sandstone, and it is not difficult to climb. It's just that the three of us are desperate here, but the kid pats his ass and leaves, which really makes people want to scold his mother.
There were more and more man-eating ants being burned to death, and the burnt smell of the corpses of their companions seemed to stimulate their ferocity, making them even more restless, and some of them even wanted to force their way through the wall of fire, completely not afraid of death.
Tofu hurriedly said: "No, it won't last long if it goes on like this." While waving his torches, he turned back to Harichagai, who had climbed to the top, and said, "Do you see clearly, what's going on?" You'd fucking hurry. ”
Hari Chagai stood on a high place with his back to us, his body was motionless, as if he was looking at something, he seemed extremely engrossed, and after Tofu finished speaking, the kid was silent, and suddenly the whole person suddenly began to slide down. This sandstone is sloping, but I can't stand it if I slide down like this, and I guess the skin is rubbed and broken. Before I could understand what was going on, Hari Chagai was already rolling on the ground, standing up with his belly covered, and said, "Run!" ”
I said, "Where are you going?" What the hell is going on! Then, before he could speak, it dawned on me. Because in the position where Hari Chagai was standing before, I don't know when, there were several more black shadows. Those thin black shadows on all fours, what are they if they are not apes?
In the orange firelight, the ape's face flickered and darkened, and its mouth with saliva appeared very greedy and terrifying. At this moment, perhaps because of the firelight, or perhaps because of the taboo of man-eating ants, they did not jump down in a hurry, but blocked the sandstone behind us, looking at us with a coveted face.
I immediately understood, it seems that behind this sandstone, eighty percent is the nest of the ape.
At this moment, it can be said that there are wolves in front and tigers in the back, and there is no way back.
Even Zhen Rui couldn't help but burst into foul language and scolded in a low voice. At this moment, the four of us were trapped in this narrow encirclement, with the apes behind us and the man-eating ants in front, and the only reliance on these solid fuels.
Solid fuel is very resistant to burning, although we don't carry much, but if you break it together, it can burn for a long time, I estimated, it can last about half an hour, and once the fire is extinguished, these man-eating ants will pounce.
The four of them waved torches to drive away the man-eating ants, and at the same time tried to find a way, however, after more than ten minutes, as the fire gradually weakened, some of them rushed towards us regardless of the wall of fire, followed by a scorching smell.
With the sacrificial impact of the man-eating ants, the flame was suddenly suppressed a lot, and it was about to be extinguished. The rest of the people also hurried to follow suit, and in this way, the time was greatly increased.
Soon, as time passed, these man-eating ants became more and more agitated, and Tofu said, "What should I do, my clothes are almost burned, so I will burn my pants next?" At this time, I suddenly remembered that there seemed to be disinfectant alcohol in the equipment bag, and quickly ordered Tofu to take out the alcohol, saying, "Spill the alcohol and burn them." ”
Tofu slapped his head and said, "How did you forget this stubble?" When even a small bottle of medical alcohol for disinfection was taken out of the equipment bag, and the alcohol was spilled towards the location where the man-eating ants gathered, the flames immediately spread outward as soon as they came into contact, forming a sea of fire in an instant, and the dense man-eating ants were surrounded by raging fire almost instantly.
I turned my head to look, and saw that the apes were also frightened by the sudden increase in flames, and they all hid back, and everyone's hair was roasted into curls, and in the words of tofu, the leg hair was gone. After this fire passed, the man-eating ants on the ground disappeared without a trace, and the four of us did not dare to delay, for fear that those apes would react and attack again, so we hurriedly crawled into the camp, lit a large bonfire next to the car, and no longer felt sleepy.
After a while, the four of us sat shirtless and smoked by the fire. After such a toss, I felt thirsty and hungry, so Tofu took out the food and gave it to us, and said while eating: "I want to write a book, the title of the book is "The Years I Walked to Memorize Words", or "The Story I Had to Tell with Unlucky Chen", what do you think?" Will it be on fire? ”
Zhen Rui smoked a cigarette and said, "Write, I'll order 50,000 copies first." ”
Tofu chewed the jerky, shook his head and sighed, and said, "It seems that the words of the old ancestor are wise, people are unlucky, and it is useless to do anything." You said that this place is usually visited by people, right? Why haven't I heard of any man-eating ants, but we have caught up with everything. I said, big boss, is the fish in the stone useful? , right? Why do I think we're getting unlucky? ”
I was feeling aggrieved in my heart, and when I heard this, I kicked the tofu and asked him to talk less, and said: "Woe and blessing rely on, if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future, have you heard of it?" ”
Tofu pursed his lips and shouted at the black liquor: "Houfu...... Houfu, where are you? The bear child is out of the skin, hurry out. ”
When Hari Chagai heard this, he laughed unceremoniously, I choked in my throat, I didn't vomit, I didn't swallow, and finally I could only shake my head with a wry smile and smoke silently. Seeing that I was frustrated, Tofu felt a little guilty, patted me on the shoulder, and said, "I'm angry, I don't look at the atmosphere, I want to be funny." What's wrong with bad luck, people will win the day, brothers are of the same heart, and their profits are gold. ”
I ignored him, Tofu was in a hurry, scratched his head and said, "Why don't I tell you a joke." There was an old man who, on his deathbed, called his four sons to the bed, took out a chopstick and handed it to the eldest son, who broke the chopsticks at once. Immediately afterwards, the old man took another pair of chopsticks, and the eldest son broke it again at once, and said to the old man: Dad, you want to educate us to unite so that we won't be broken lightly, right? ”
"Guess what the old man said? He said, "Ahem, these chopsticks...... Yes, it was used by Emperor Qianlong. Hahaha...... It's funny. He was talking and having fun, and when he saw that the three of us were expressionless, he couldn't help touching his nose and said, "Why don't you laugh?" ”
Hari Chagai said: "You saw this joke 800 years ago, so use it to tease 'Houfu'." ”
Tofu was not convinced, and said, "Then you talk about one!" ”
"Come on, just talk about it." The two of them started to joke with each other, and I looked at each other, ignoring the tease, and sat by the fire, waiting for dawn amid their unreliable jokes.
