Chapter 408: Mystic Creatures

The poisonous butterfly and I didn't dare to get too close to the cliff, so we had to shuttle through the bushes on the cliff, but fortunately it was already the top of the mountain, and the trees were finally sparse and not as dense as before.

Unhurried, I'll walk a paragraph and watch a paragraph, for fear that if I am unlucky and encounter some beast that has not hibernated, it will be really over. The beast's roar can travel far enough to reverberate enough to be noticed by a stronger man or a hound.

The poisonous butterfly followed me closely, looking up at the sky from time to time.

I was a little strange and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”

"Look at the eagle." Poisonous Butterfly Road.

"Eagle?" I was puzzled for a while.

Seeing that I was puzzled, the poisonous butterfly explained: "Shennongjia is inaccessible and inconvenient to travel, and the Miao family has a special domesticated eagle to monitor Shennongjia. ”

My heart jumped, and I looked up at the sky.

At this time, I saw a small pockmark in the sky slowly enlarged and came towards us.

"It's an eagle!" The poisonous butterfly pulled me to the bottom of a tree, and where I was squatting, she said, "The eagle is very recognizable of moving things, and it must not move when it comes." ”

I nodded, since these eagles came from the Miao family, if they can't be done, they are domesticated by Miao Han's father and son, and once they are discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable. Me and the poisonous butterfly were the most important targets of their operation.

Soon the eagle flew over, circled the sky a few times, found nothing, and flew away again.

"Let's get out of here quickly, since the eagle training is here, it means that the neighborhood has been monitored." Poisonous Butterfly Road.

I nodded, got up and sped up, leading the butterflies to the west.

After walking for a while, the top of the mountain are some relatively tall pines, but there are very few shrubs, the view is good, I observe the ground, the poisonous butterfly observes the sky, the two cooperate, almost all the way trotting forward.

After more than two hours, we walked out for more than ten kilometers, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and now we should be away from the pursuers.

After a short break, we ate some dry food and water that we had brought with us.

I looked at the cliff that still stretched endlessly, and muttered a little, so I asked, "Are you sure there will be an opening to the west?" ”

"I wasn't too sure before, but now I'm sure that after walking so far, we haven't shown up, which means that our previous position was at the easternmost edge of the cliff, and as long as we go west, we will definitely find the middle opening." Poison Butterfly nodded.

I nodded, and said as long as there was a score.

After a quarter of an hour's rest, we continued on the road, and after about half an hour, the gap finally appeared in front of us.

At first glance, it looks like an east-west cliff as if something has hit it hard. The cliff wall like a knife and an axe suddenly broke and shattered, and several downward fractures appeared.

We hurriedly ran over to take a look, and found that there was a downward road at the gap, although it looked very uneven, but it was large enough, one platform after another, and if you looked closely, it even made people feel that there were traces of artificial excavation.

"This is it." Poisonous Butterfly Road.

I nodded, looked around and found nothing out of the ordinary, and jumped down the first step.

The poisonous butterflies followed, and we jumped down one by one.

The formation of these steps is somewhat strange, it looks like it is naturally formed, but there are some traces similar to artificial, crooked, very rough, and the height difference is also different, the high can reach two meters, and the lower one can also be half a meter.

Along the way, we evaded the falcon's detection twice, and when our legs were almost numb, we finally approached the bottom of the cliff.

As far as the eye can see, there is a lush and all-broad-leaved forest, tall and large, with a spread canopy and a huge umbrella cover to cover the sky.

The air is very humid, and when you take a breath, you feel like you can squeeze half a tael of water out of your lungs. And because of the topography, the temperature below has also risen a lot, much warmer than the top of the mountain, and it feels like entering a tropical jungle.

The cold and heat in the jungle are completely different, if it is hot, there will be all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts in the jungle, which is very dangerous and troublesome, and one will be hit if you are not careful. The valley floor here is much wider than the previous place, and it is about ten kilometers long.

To my delight and the poisonous butterfly, we faintly saw the reflection of the water under the cliff wall on the opposite side.

If there is water, there is a stream, and if there is a stream, there will be a river.

The valley is low-lying and there is a high probability that there will be a river.

Poison Butterfly was right before.

We continued down into the valley floor, where the trees were so dense and tall that it felt like it was dark under the canopy, and the light was a little dim. You know, it's almost noon, and it's just the light of day.

However, the good thing is that there are no shrubs that get in the way, instead there are vines everywhere and some shade-loving weeds, which makes it easier to walk.

"Be careful, this is a climate of its own." The poisonous butterfly reminded me in a whisper, and after speaking, she took out a bottle of white things and handed it to me, saying that it was anti-poisonous insect medicine.

I took it, wiped a little bit on my feet and body, and then handed it back to the poisonous butterfly, and she wiped it too.

Then I took out my heavy knife and carefully guarded it, bypassing the chaotic snake-like vines, and led her step by step into the jungle, towards the place where I had seen the water before.

"Whew!"

After walking for a while, suddenly a dull roar came from far away, and the sound was definitely a big guy!

The poisonous butterfly shrank and instinctively clung to my side. My scalp tingled, and the sound of this thing was even more terrifying than the sound of the half-ton grizzly bear before me.

The muffled roar alarmed something on the tree, and it flew away, black and black, a bit like a crow, adding a bit of a strange atmosphere to the place.

I hurriedly squatted down, took a closer look, and found nothing abnormal for a long time, so I whispered to the poisonous butterfly: "Do you hear what it is?" ”

The muffled roar made me feel very wrong, the sound was a bit like a wolf, but it was much more powerful, and the muffled sound and tremor it made people panic, not ordinary beasts.

I instinctively thought of the tyrant general of Hongcun, that is, the scumbag, and when it roared, it was somewhat similar to the sound I heard before.

Generally speaking, the sound of the beast is somewhat recognizable, but the one is completely inaudible.

The poisonous butterfly was also shocked, shook his head slowly, and said, "I didn't hear it." ”

I was nervous, and I always felt like something was going to happen.

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no more abnormality, we continued our journey and proceeded in the established direction.

At this time, the sky was getting darker and darker, and it looked like it was going to rain, and it felt like it was going to be dark under the canopy, and it was even more blurry.

To add insult to injury, I don't know when a faint fog began to rise in the forest, reducing visibility to the lowest point, and it was almost impossible to see from ten meters away.

I tightened the heavy knife in my hand, and the poisonous butterfly also cautiously pulled the corner of my clothes, afraid of getting separated.

After walking for another while, I accidentally stepped on a small puddle and hurriedly retracted, trying to bypass it and continue on my way.

But the poisonous butterfly didn't follow me, but looked at the small puddle in a daze, and its little face gradually turned white.

"What's ......" I followed her gaze, and suddenly a "has" word stuck in my throat, and I felt cold.

Where is this puddle, clearly huge, the footprints of stored water!

The strange thing is that the footprints are almost exactly the same as the footprints of people, but they are much larger, one meter long and half a meter wide.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and remembered what Miao Miao had once introduced to me, a mysterious species of Shennongjia.

"It's a wild man!" The poisonous butterfly shuddered for a moment and gave the answer.

Shennongjia savages!

I'm covered in sweat and hair! Miao Miao once told me that there are indeed savages in Shennongjia, but this kind of savages is not a prehistoric species, but a kind of demonized and artificially modified monsters, which are very powerful and dangerous.

And she also told me a secret, saying that she once heard the elders of the family say that the wild people of Shennongjia do not exist for reproduction, and their existence is to protect a secret.

The Miao family once went to test this secret, but everyone who went died, not only the Miao family, but all those who dared to probe the secret died regardless of their strength, and no one could come back alive.

Over time, the secret of the savages of Shennongjia has become a taboo for thousands of years, and even the Miao family who entered Shennongjia is secretive.

"I'm sorry, I forgot."

Poison Butterfly said with some guilt: "When Cousin Miao Miao mentioned this place to me, I didn't remember it clearly. ”

"It's okay, don't panic, it's a big deal that we will return to the bottom of the cliff along the road, and then walk along the cliff to avoid this section; It won't take too long. "I hurriedly comforted the poisonous butterfly, saving Wanliang had to race against time, and she was more anxious than me.

"Hmm." The poisonous butterfly nodded in response.

So I turned around and planned to return the same way with the poisonous butterfly.

Savages are particularly dangerous, and if they encounter them, they must retreat immediately, they are monsters, and if they dare to approach them, they will inevitably be attacked.

"Whew!"

But at this moment, the muffled roar came again, and what made me chill was that the sound was obviously much closer than before, and if I listened closely, it would not exceed a kilometer.

If you listen carefully, you can still hear a slight muffled sound on the ground, one after another, it is a wild man marching.

It's coming towards us!!

The poisonous butterfly clung to the corner of my clothes, and my little face turned pale.

Thousands of alpacas are running wild in my heart, and I can't figure it out if I am discovered!

Without saying a word, I pulled the poisonous butterfly and turned around and ran, running wildly towards the original road.

After running wildly for a while, the footsteps behind him stopped strangely, and the whole jungle suddenly became as silent as death, and even the slightest insect chirping could not be heard before.

In this way, I and the poisonous butterfly did not relax, but became more uneasy.

Running and running, I suddenly stepped on another puddle.

At first glance, the two of us suddenly froze in place, and on the opposite side of the puddle, two pairs of footprints, one large and one small, were clearly visible, which were left by us before.

We're turning back!

Ghost hits the wall!!
