Chapter Eighty-Three: There Are Youkai
As soon as Tian Laosi said this, several guys immediately didn't dare to speak out, but they really became a lot calmer, it seems that Yuan An, as the support of the Yuan family, is still very popular.
I looked at Wenmo next to him, at this time he was turning his head to look in the direction of the river, in fact, speaking of which, the Yuan family has Yuan An pressing the formation, and we still have a second uncle here, not to mention that there is also a Wenmo, so we don't have to be afraid!
Despite all that, everyone's fear in the face of such a corpse does not come from an external threat, but more from their own hearts.
In fact, this is not the most terrifying corpse I have ever seen, and the half-melted corpse in the ancient tomb robbery cave under the sea is even more terrifying, but the bloody state in front of us still makes us feel palpitations when we look at the past. And Anador had already run to the edge of the woods to the side and vomited.
However, there is no fear at all, the second uncle and Yuan An squatted next to the corpse, as if buying meat, looking left and right, the second uncle pointed to a muscle on the left shoulder of the corpse and said: "There are obvious bite marks here, and there are tearing marks, and here," he said, and pointed to the corpse's leg, "There is a muscle missing here." ”
Yuan An looked down, then nodded, "Look at the traces of the teeth, it should be some kind of feline." ”
The five-body body we watched from the side, the terrifying face of the corpse that people dare not look at directly, was next to these two people, and the second uncle and Yuan An talked about it as if they were picking which piece of meat was fat and which piece of meat was thin!
I emboldened, took a step forward, and asked, "Does that mean that it was some kind of beast that killed him?" ”
The second uncle shook his head, "It's unlikely, if a beast attacks a human, there will inevitably be a large bite wound, but it will definitely not be skinned!" ”
"But, I just heard what you guys were talking about, feline bite marks." I asked curiously.
Yuan An nodded and said, "Indeed, there is such a discovery, but the problem is that this trace is not necessarily left by this person before he died. Maybe it's just the smell of blood from the corpses that attracts the beasts. ”
I was about to ask something more, when Anado, who was not far away by the woods, suddenly screamed, and everyone immediately turned back to look. I saw Anado's eyes staring at the inside of the woods in panic, slowly retreating.
We followed her gaze and glanced into the bushes, and immediately our faces changed greatly, and the guy next to us and Lantern Xiao raised their guns in a flash, and I could only hold the short knife in my hand, because we all saw that in the depths of the dark woods, a pair of dark green eyes lit up.
At this time, the second uncle also came over and said softly to Anado: "Slowly retreat, don't rush, slowly, don't panic!" ”
Probably stimulated by Anado's scream, the two eyes in the jungle were getting closer and closer, and we could see its appearance clearly, this was a sturdy leopard, at this time it was less than five meters away from Anado, if it made any moves, it would definitely be too late for us to rescue it. Everyone's heart is in their throats.
Although Anador grew up in the mountains, it should be the first time she has encountered such a face-to-face situation with a fierce beast. It can be seen that Anadot is very scared now, her whole body is stiff, her legs are struggling to retreat a little, her eyes are staring at the leopard not far away, and her biting lip is still trembling.
The whole scene was silent, and no one dared to make any sound, lest it would be bad for Anador to alarm the leopard. The leopard, on the other hand, was quite leisurely, strolling out of the bushes, first sniffing Anado's vomit on the ground, and then looking at us, probably this beast that has been living in the mountains, has never seen a man, and certainly does not see a gun, so it does not seem to be nervous. But because it is not afraid, we and the weapons in our hands cannot create any deterrent effect on it, and in its eyes, we are also a group of strange animals, even its prey.
We didn't dare to shoot the flashlight at the leopard's position for fear of angering it. But we also need to be able to see its movements so that we can respond in time, and the flashlights in each person's hands are crossed in several directions, except to avoid the leopard's location.
Anadot was still slowly retreating, probably because she was so nervous that she stumbled in her steps, and the leopard's ears moved, and she suddenly turned her head to Anadot. During the Lantern Festival, they immediately raised their guns and prepared to shoot. The second uncle waved his hand again and again, "Don't shoot!" ”
Fortunately, the leopard only glanced at Anador a few times before turning its head away, but this time, it focused on the corpse just now, and then lowered its head, arched its waist, and made a "whine" sound.
This is a typical attack action, everyone was a little flustered when they saw it, and they couldn't help but start to retreat, and the flashlight that originally shone in front of them also began to become chaotic, and various pillars of light shook for a while, and when we looked over, the leopard that was still standing there just now had disappeared.
We took this opportunity to rush over and bring back Anadora, who was already stunned.
Just when everyone was at a loss, I suddenly saw a black shadow flashing not far ahead, and I don't know who shouted, "There!" Then I remembered a gunshot. Our team was in disarray, and then the leopard hiding in the darkness let out a roar, and I don't know who fired another shot, and when we moved the flashlight, we realized that there was nothing there.
These beasts thrive in the darkness of the night, and even though we have guns, we have no advantage at all. Although we knew that the leopard was all around us, we couldn't find its exact location when the light of our flashlight came and went. Everyone was in a mess all at once.
At this time, Yuan An shouted, "Don't mess around, don't shoot anyone." Everyone stands still and watches out for their surroundings! The Yuan family's team obeyed Yuan An's words and stopped suddenly.
I quietly asked the second uncle beside me, "What should we do?" ”
Before the second uncle could speak, Wen Mo opened his mouth and said, "Its goal is not us, don't move." ”
At this time, I heard Yuan An say, "Everyone stay away from the corpse!" It's this what it wants! "The strong smell of blood on the corpses is indeed more attractive than our group.
Everyone slowly stepped back and relinquished the position of the corpse on the ground. Soon, in the darkness, the leopard reappeared, slowly approaching the carcass. Tian Laosi said softly to Yuan An: "An Ye, otherwise take the opportunity to shoot him to death!" ”
Yuan An glared at Tian Laosi, "With this visibility, can you guarantee a one-shot kill?" And at such a close distance, if you can't kill with a single shot, who are you going to let next take a claw from this beast? ”
Tian Laosi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded curtly, "Yes, yes, I was careless!" ”
For wild beasts, food is always the most important thing, and the leopard seems to get what he wants, and does not pay any attention to us, but bites the carcass and prepares to drag it into the woods.
Just when we thought that things were in danger of passing, in the direction of the upper reaches of the river, there was a sudden burst of gunfire.
The loud gunfire suddenly reminded us that our attention was all focused on the leopard in front of us, and everyone was defenseless, and we all jumped down.
Lantern Xiao shrank her neck in shock, "What? Which gun? ”
I hurried to see the leopard, and the beast was quick to react, and as soon as the gun rang out, it grabbed the corpse on the ground, dragged it into the woods, and disappeared.
Lantern Xiao turned around and looked around, "I'll go!" That leopard is protecting food, running fast enough! ”
"The gunfire is coming from that direction!" Tian Laosi waved his hand at us, "Quick! Follow me! ”
A group of us walked around a bulge of a rock, and the flashlight shone through the music, and we saw two figures shaking not far ahead.
We ran over to take a look, and found that these two people were another buddy from Ruan Liang and the Yuan family, both of them were full of panic, and that guy was even a little hysterical. Their state made my heart extremely uneasy, and I couldn't imagine what kind of situation would stimulate two big men like this.
Ruan Liang didn't seem to notice our presence, holding the gun in both hands and pointing forward, but he didn't pull the trigger for a long time.
In view of the extremely unstable state of the two of them, and both of them had guns in their hands, Tian Laosi motioned for us not to move yet, walked over quickly, and grabbed Ruan Liang, "What's the matter?" ”
Ruan Liang was frightened by Tian Laosi, and it took a while to come to his senses, and he stared at Tian Laosi for a long time before he spoke: "Yes, there are monsters!" ”
Ruan Liang's voice was not small, we could also hear it clearly, everyone's expressions became a little ugly, Ruan Liang said this, everyone would inevitably associate with the terrible corpse just now.
Yuan An scolded in a low voice, "Nonsense! Let's go, let's go and have a look! So we walked briskly over to it.
"Youkai?" Tian Laosi patted Ruan Liang's face and continued to ask, "Are you crazy, what nonsense!" Where? ”
"Right there!" Ruan Liang stretched out his hand and pointed forward, we looked in the direction he pointed, and suddenly saw a strange thing in front of us, like a big pocket, which still contained something, and it was still moving. And beside the big pocket, there was a man who lay there motionless, not knowing whether he was dead or alive, but although he had not been skinned like the corpse just now, his face was also extremely pale, and he looked very lucky.
As soon as Tian Laosi saw it, he wanted to step forward, but Ruan Liang grabbed him, "Don't go over!" Youkai over there! ”
Tian Laosi sneered, "Then how can there be a monster!" Inside that big pocket? What do you have in that pocket? ”
Ruan Liang shook his head desperately but couldn't speak for a while, at this time, the guy next to Ruan Liang suddenly screamed and shot indiscriminately in front of him.
