Chapter 883: Encountering a Fierce Beast at Night
It was past nine o'clock the next night.
The night is dark.
The three of them came to the northwest of the mountainous area, and according to the map and compass, they were facing Huang Baotun, where the Chi family's compound was located, on the other side of the mountainous area.
There are no villages near the periphery of the mountains, because in the early years, there were many wild animals in the mountains, which were not suitable for habitation.
After being passed down from generation to generation, the nearest village is more than ten miles away from the foot of the mountain, to say the least, and the place near the mountain is often not suitable for cultivation because of various reasons such as the soil is rocky, the terrain is undulating and potholes, etc., so there is no farmland, most of them are barren grasses and woods, and only occasionally there are a few small pieces of reclaimed wasteland to grow some crops, but it is obviously not as good as the fertile soil in the plains farther away, and those crops grow well.
However, according to Zou Tianchun, the reason why there is so much barren land and uncultivated is not only due to bad geology, but also because of the ...... Jianglong Province is vast and sparsely populated, so many good farmland is planted, who has enough to eat and support to work hard to reclaim such inferior land to grow crops, in the end a lot of effort and a lot of money, and the harvest is not good.
The buggy was parked at the foot of the mountain in a relatively flat area.
That's where they camped for the night last night.
After going around the outskirts of the mountains today, they returned to this place again.
From here, there is a road into the mountain, and although the road conditions are not very good, it is barely possible to drive. Tomorrow, they will go into the mountains.
After the mountain is finished, it's time to have a good talk with the mountain demon.
The three of them lit a bonfire, set up a tent, had a battery for power, pulled up the light bulb on the car, propped up a shelf to boil water, and took out the bacon, dried fish, dried vegetables, noodles, etc. they brought when they came, and soon made a simple pot of dried vegetables and stew.
Don't rush to cook the noodles, and if you don't have enough to eat later, it's not too late to cook them.
The three of them sat under the lamp next to the car, around the small table, and began to drink and eat, chatting and discussing today's discoveries and the next trip plan.
From time to time, Wen Shuo would fumble with the five-shot shotgun placed next to him, and he couldn't put it down.
In fact, since yesterday, he has been carrying the gun on his back almost all the time, sometimes playing handsome with a gun on his shoulder, or holding the gun with both hands, the barrel pointed obliquely downward, imagining that he is the kind of lonely western cowboy in the movie, and from time to time the gun is aimed at randomly......
When you go to bed at night, you have to hold the gun in your arms.
One is that I really can't put it down, and the other is that I am timid and afraid of what happens.
When the third watch was really sleeping soundly in the middle of the night, two tigers rushed over, and the fat man's more than 200 catties of expensive meat were not blind.
Actually, there is no need for fat people to worry at all.
Because Zou Tianchun and Jing Bai both carried rune paper with them, after setting up camp, they would set up a magic circle around them, and they would not dare to approach the invisible, silent, and invisible senses in the nature of heaven and earth, and the birds and beasts who were more sensitive than human beings.
But the fat man is the character of taking precautions and being cautious.
There is nothing wrong with a few more insurances in everything.
However, when Zou Tianchun and Jing Bai each set up their own altars to deter fierce birds and beasts and prevent danger from approaching, the fat man couldn't help but recall the moment when he was the most domineering on the prairie, the wolves knelt down, and the wolf king bowed his head and trembled......
This cow can blow for a lifetime.
But this cow is really inconvenient to brag about it by himself - so the fat man has always been very angry, although Ma Youcheng and Jing Bai have long been reconciled, they are not a person who is easy to talk about, not to mention Chen Shijie, he is a stuffy gourd at all.
In this way, no one can mention the majesty of the fat man in front of Jing Bai and others.
In this way, the fat man did such a big thing, and his partial life was not known to everyone.
Alas.
Who the are you talking to?!
"To say the least, it will take three days to finish the mountain. Jing Bai took a sip of wine and said with some emotion: "If I hadn't been anxious about doing this kind of thing before, I would even extend the time to a month, because I should be as thoughtful as possible in all aspects, and at the same time, I can also increase my knowledge and experience." Now it's not good, hurry up and finish it, and you have to go back to Shuchuan. ”
"Actually, I don't understand a little, so why bother?" Zou Tianchun said: "With your fame, status, and cultivation, especially your cultivation of metaphysical physiognomy, which is most respected by the rich in today's era, and you must have a lot of income in terms ......of economy, why spend any more effort and time to run these business things? Well, I'm sorry, but I probably don't understand how profitable it is to do business. ”
Jing Bai smiled bitterly and glanced at Wen Shuo, who was sitting there rubbing his shotgun, with a gentle Wen Shuo, and said, "I got on Wen Shuo's thief ship, there was no way." ”
"Go, go, what's in my way?" Wen Shuo looked innocent and wronged, and said: "You yourself fell in love with that place, you want to contribute to the Xuanmen rivers and lakes, and you have to establish a sect, the money is not enough, I invested in you out of righteousness, who got on whose thief ship?"
"Entering the WTO to practice, you gave me the idea, right?" Jing Bai asked.
"Yes, have you benefited?" Wen Shuo said confidently: "If you don't have any feelings and regret it, then it's okay, who are we with who......m?
Jing Bai smiled bitterly, and then said with a straight face: "Although my mind is tired and my cultivation time has been reduced too much, but if I think about it carefully, it is quite rewarding. ”
"Oh?" Zou Tianchun said curiously, "How do you say that?"
Jing Bai hesitated slightly, and said: "We come from the world, but we don't cultivate the world, we come from the red dust, but we don't understand the red dust, we are born with affection, but we want to cut off the three feelings...... If the Xuan is ruthless and the Xuan is extraordinary, where do we come from? Where does the Xuan come from? What is the ultimate meaning of the Xuan Xiu?"
Zou Tianchun was stunned and fell into deep thought.
The fat man is also a little confused.
These words, these weird, competitive thinking, the fat man didn't think about it - how did Jing Bai realize such a profound and seemingly nonsense, mysterious and mysterious, meaningless truth from the attitude of the fat man?
So the fat man was very serious and looked at Jing Bai very suspiciously, with doubts in his eyes.
Jing Bai nodded to him and arched his hand again.
The fat man also nodded slowly, looking like a teachable child (mourning is greater than heart death).
Just as the three of them were pondering, in the dense jungle a hundred meters away, a faint voice suddenly came.
The three people with keen six senses immediately became alert and followed the reputation.
Time.
The stars are dense, the moon is high, and the Milky Way runs across the sky.
Under the light of the moonlight and stars, the light is not bad.
However, except for this relatively flat and open plot, in the mountains and forests 100 meters away, it is because of the poor vision caused by the contrast between light and dark, and the distance is too far, and nothing can be seen in the dark.
"Don't move. Zou Tianchun was the first to whisper to remind the two.
Wen Shuo had already picked up the shotgun, squinting his eyes and looking highly nervous - damn, wouldn't you really let Lao Tzu encounter a fierce beast?
It stands to reason......
With Zou Tianchun and Jing Bai setting up the altar and setting up a magic circle, releasing a powerful qi machine, the fierce birds and beasts should have sensed something bad early and avoided it from afar, how could it be so close?
The buggy is parked on the outside, so as not to obscure the view and make it easier for them to observe the situation on the other side of the forest. At the same time, the location of the campfire is also a few meters away from the side, so that the light of the fire does not interfere with the observation of the darkness.
Zou Tianchun raised his hand and gestured gently.
Jing Bai and Wen Shuo understood, got up carefully, bent down and moved a few steps to the side, and observed the distance intently.
At the same time, Zou Tianchun and Jing Bai each pinched their concentrations, and the qi machine followed the magic circle they had laid before, coherent with heaven and earth, and cautiously probed into the distance.
After slowly getting used to the light, Wen Shuo could already vaguely see the situation on the edge of the mountain forest, the messy bushes, trees, stones......
Suddenly, he spotted two small yellow-green dots, flashing behind a boulder, and then vanished.
What is it?!
Wen Shuo raised his gun and aimed there, his muscles tense.
Having had the experience of encountering wolves on the grassland earlier, Wen Shuo knew that the yellow-green dot that flashed just now was probably the eyes of a beast in the darkness of the night.
How can it be?
Why are there beasts?
The magic circle laid out by Jing Bai and Zou Tianchun deliberately approached the range of the qi machine to the edge of the mountain forest, and it also extended more than ten meters inside.
Another pair of beast's eyes flashed in the bushes.
Wen Shuo's heart trembled.
Jing Bai said softly: "Three-headed, there are three-headed tigers...... And the bears! two-headed, and the other three, no, four-headed...... What is it?"
Zou Tianchun's voice was extremely low, and he said, "Wild boar!"
"Damn......" The fat man couldn't help but shiver all over.
When he was drinking and chatting with Chi Baotian, he had heard about the fierceness and horror of these mountain and forest beasts - a fierce beast attacking them was enough for three people to drink a pot, not to mention, so many fierce beasts suddenly appeared.
It stands to reason that these three beasts should never appear at the same time, as the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and they will only fight each other when they meet.
But now there is a situation that is extremely counterintuitive.
"Mr. Wen, don't shoot!" Zou Tianchun forced himself to calm down, and his voice trembled a little as he reminded.
"Lao Tzu knows. The fat man trembled, gritted his teeth and cursed a dirty word -, if you shoot now, you are looking for death!
Zou Tianchun and Jing Bai, these two stupid people!
Their magic circle not only couldn't frighten the beast, but instead summoned the beast!
"Let's go, get in the car!" Wen Shuo reminded with a gun as he began to retreat to the side of the car.
Zou Tianchun and Jing Bai seemed to be frightened stupidly, and only came back to their senses after hearing Wen Shuo's reminder, and hurriedly rushed to the off-road vehicle and pulled the car door up.
Because of his position, Jing Bai pulled the car door and rushed into the back row, while Zou Tianchun sat in the co-pilot's seat.
The fat man almost couldn't hold back his scolding, so he quickly bypassed the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat, handed the shotgun to Zou Tianchun, who was the co-pilot, and scolded: "What the hell are you doing in a daze, give me the car key!"
"Ah......h
Zou Tianchun hurriedly took out the car keys.
Wen Shuo snatched it and inserted the key to start the car, and the gear slammed into the accelerator and turned around.
However, as soon as the car turned around, the corner of his eye suddenly found that the rear of the original car, now turned to the outside of the left side, a huge black shadow hit the car heavily, making a muffled bang, and the heavy off-road vehicle was knocked into two wheels off the ground.
