Chapter 52: The Pursuit

At this moment, I was poisoned by a snake, which was not fatal, but it made me paralyzed and unable to move. Surrounded by a group of snakes under his feet, the snake king was at the edge of the stone, his round eyes were small, emitting this cold light, and the scarlet letter was swallowing, as if he would give some order in the next moment.

A large part of the little snakes have begun to try to erect their bodies, in a vain attempt to bite us, but fortunately, the beams are high enough to attack us for a while. These snakes are extremely patient, and under the drive of the snake king, they have been holding on to us for a long time, and they have no intention of retreating. And the three of us squatted on the beam for a long time, and we already had back pain, and our legs and feet were sore.

These snakes originally lived in this house, and they surrounded us here as if they were at home, and they didn't get tired at all, but the three of us couldn't. My mind was racing rapidly, hoping to come up with a way to get out, at this moment, Gu Wenmin was about to squat for too long, so he propped up his upper body and twisted a few times, and when she moved, the old beams, as if overwhelmed, made a slight creaky sound, and at the same time, some dust also fell from the roof, and the choking person coughed, and his eyes were fascinated.

I coughed, but I had an idea. Since there is no guò below, why don't we go from above? The top structure of this old-fashioned house is made of wooden shelves, the shelves are pasted with mud, and the outside is covered with tiles, which is naturally much easier to destroy than the current cement steel roof. And I don't know how many years this house has, the wood has long since rotted, and it is too easy to break the roof and get out.

I couldn't help but say to Tofu, "Put the light on it and see how high it is." ”

The roof building in ancient times is different from the present, because the roof is covered with tiles to avoid rain, so the roof is triangular, and the beams to the roof will have a large section of the void, which is easy to drop dust and other things, so it is generally blocked with wooden boards or kraft paper.

Tofu said that the lights went up, only to see the height of about two meters above our heads, not to see the beams, but a large piece of black wooden board, the wooden board is rotten in some places, it looks dilapidated, according to this corrosion process, this house is at least hundreds of years old, according to the architectural characteristics, it is very similar to the building of the Ming Dynasty, it is not easy to preserve it to this day.

The beam we are accommodating at this moment is a transverse beam, which crosses the beam, and there is a longitudinal beam, and if you climb forward along the longitudinal beam, you can go to the insulating plank overhead, and the top of the isolating plank is the roof.

I explained my plan to Gu Wenmin and Tofu, and both said that this method was feasible.

Tofu said: "The beams of this house are rotten wood and narrow, if I climb on my back, I will accidentally plant it to feed the snake." In this way, Gu Da Beauty and I will go to the partition board first, and then pull you up, you wait here. ”

After the discussion, Tofu and Gu Wenmin climbed up along the beams of the house one after the other, and the little snakes below seemed to see through our actions of wanting to escape, and suddenly became uneasy, hissing and spitting out letters, and the sound made the roots of people's teeth soften.

Tofu and Tofu quickly climbed onto the partition, and I couldn't see the two of them at this point, only the flashlight that came through the holes.

I listened to the two people above talking.

Tofu said: "Fortunately, you have a rope in your bag, pull Lao Chen up first...... Suddenly, he gasped, followed by a vomiting sound, accompanied by the sound ......of stomping feet.

I was waiting for the two of them to pull me up, suddenly heard this movement, I couldn't help but be taken aback, looked up, only to see a piece of wood not far above collapsed, revealing a big hole, along with the rotten wood falling down the things, as well as cockroaches, turtles, centipedes, geckos, ground cattle and other insects, mixed with a lot of feces-like particles, like rain, the listener's scalp exploded.

Those small things such as cockroaches and turtles quickly disappeared without a trace, and it was difficult for the gecko centipedes, which were big enough to fall into the snake pile and be eaten all in an instant.

At this time, I listened to Gu Wenmin above: "On the roof, no one has cleaned it for hundreds of years, and all dark places must hide dirt and dirt." Xiao Dou, don't worry about throwing up, let's hurry up and get Chen Hang up. ”

Suddenly, Tofu came back to me, tied a rope around my waist, and the two of them pulled me up with force on the partition. When the dim flashlight shines, the ground is full of rat droppings and other things, insects and ants are rampant, the stench is unstoppable, the air is cramped, and staying for a second is a kind of torture.

At this time, I couldn't move, so I sat on the ground first, Tofu and Gu Wenmin looked at the roof with flashlights, the two of them found a relatively low place, took out the tripod of the camera, and stabbed it up a few times, then I heard a cracking sound, mud mixed with tiles fell, and a hole was revealed on the roof, and the moonlight like white gauze shone in from the hole.

Tofu's face was full of joy and said, "Thank God, it's done, hurry, let's go quickly." After that, he carried me on his back with a rope, and Gu Wenmin climbed out of the hole first and answered outside.

It was difficult to carry the tofu on my back, but fortunately, the roof was not high, so it was not difficult to climb up. Out of the hole, we were on the roof of the house, the dark tiles, which made all kinds of noises with the slightest movement.

At this time, we escaped from the ascension and got out of trouble, and we were powerless to deal with those two poachers. Gu Wenmin's expression was heavy, and he said, "Let's go down first, let's change places for the night, and by the way, find tequila for Lao Chen." ”

The grass was easier to find, so we went down to the house, and outside the house, not far away, we dug up a few plants. Gu Wenmin took the stems and leaves of the dragon snake grass, rinsed the water from the kettle a few times, and asked me to chew and swallow it. The grass leaves were full of bitterness in my mouth, and my throat was nauseous, but the effect of the medicine was not so fast, and I couldn't move for a while, so I was carried by tofu.

The two discussed finding a place away from the snake nest house to spend the night safely, I mentioned yì or returned to the canyon, who knew that the three of them had just turned around and walked a few steps, then they heard a sound of Si Xi Suo in the grass in front of them, this sound is too familiar to me, isn't it the sound of the snake spitting out the letter?

Tofu was shocked and exclaimed, "Fuck, could it be that these snakes chased them out?" After that, he threw the flashlight into the grass, and sure enough, under the grass roots, there were countless small snakes densely coiled, and their small black eyes stared at us coldly.

Among the snakes among the weeds, the red snake crown was particularly eye-catching, and the head of the snake king was high, and then he stretched forward violently, and the snakes in the grass, as if they heard the order to go into battle, crawled towards us in an instant, and the speed was extremely fast.

Where can I still think about it at the moment, before I can speak, Tofu has already turned around and runs, and when people encounter danger, they often have amazing explosive power. This kid was still soft and weak just now, like Sister Lin, but now his body is bursting out, carrying me on his back, running like a gust of wind.

Gu Wenmin's body is not bad, the two of them ran forward, I was carried on my back without exertion, the herb is estimated to have begun to work, the rotation of the mind became flexible, and when I looked back, there were large and small turquoise green snakes crawling on the ground, at a glance, dense, how much was hidden in the invisible darkness, and I didn't know, just the sound made when crawling was enough to make people chill.

Although the body of tofu exploded, it is estimated that he has been scared stupid, and he has no head or brain when he runs, and he can't distinguish the path. When I saw that the snakes were about to catch up, I only felt my heart pounding, and suddenly, I saw a building faintly emerging from the recess of the mountain in front of me.

Although the night was dark, the moonlight was brighter, and I looked at it as if it was shaking, and I was not sure what it was, so I said to Tofu; "Go there, can you hide for a while?"

Tofu is out of the body at this time, and only the body remains. Wherever I pointed, he ran in that direction, and in a moment he was in front of the building. But it is a small, land temple-like building, fortunately the doors and windows are intact. The three of us ran in, and without caring about the surrounding environment, we immediately closed the doors and windows tightly.

The sound of snakes swimming outside the door immediately became quieter, as if it had stopped. Tofu looked out against the crack in the door, turned his head, swallowed his saliva and said, "I didn't leave, they stayed outside." After a pause, he said to me, "Old Chen, why do you say they are chasing after the three of us?" Could it be that the snake king is a male, you grabbed and fell before, and broke the root of other people's lives, and people are looking for you to take revenge, right? ”
