Chapter 3: Waterfalls

At this time, Dongfang Mo was groping his way forward, following the peculiar fragrance and the blood stains on the ground, constantly going to the depths.

For half a day, Dongfang Mo was already a little impatient, this place had already entered the deep forest, if he hadn't felt that he was getting closer and closer to the beast a few times, he would have already gone home.

"This beast is so able to run even if he's injured!" Dongfang Mo was strange in his heart, if a beast was injured in the past, it must have found a quiet and hidden place to heal its wounds, and he had never seen anyone running around after being injured.

"Unless, it wants to go to a specific place, and there must be something in that place that has a strong attraction to it, according to the current situation, what can attract it must be something that can heal, and if a beast can understand how to heal, it is enough to show that that thing must be extraordinary, and it is very likely to be some kind of heaven and earth spiritual thing."

Thinking of this, Dongfang Mo raised his eyebrows and thought about it. He once again followed the scent of blood without moving.

Half a day has passed like this, the sky is almost dark, and the stomach is already hungry, if it weren't for the greed in my heart, I would have turned around and left.

Just when he was gloomy, he suddenly heard a strange noise in front of him.

Dongfang Mo was short, held his breath, and looked ahead calmly.

Through the dense branches, you can vaguely hear the sound of "whooshing" in front of you, which seems to be a river, and listening to this sound, this river should not be too narrow.

Slightly opened the branches and leaves in front of him, and his eyes swept over.

I saw that there was really a faint mist dozens of zhang away, but it was not a spacious river, but a waterfall that was a hundred zhang high, as if pouring down from the sky, magnificent.

What's even more incredible is that such a high waterfall did not splash a large splash, according to him, it must have fallen into a deep stream, otherwise it could not be only this faint water vapor drifting away.

Thinking of this, Dongfang Mo's heart suddenly appeared with three words: "bottomless stream"

It is said that there is a waterfall with a very high drop in the place of dozens of miles outside the mountains here, and the place where the waterfall falls is the bottomless stream, the bottom of the stream is unfathomable, and the people or beasts around fall into it, and never survive, so this place has become a famous place of death, and there are very few people and beasts who come here.

Dongfang Mo carefully looked around, it was slightly empty outside the waterfall, so it would not affect his eyesight, and through the faint mist, he could see clearly that there was nothing wrong with the surroundings at a glance.

And here, the fragrance that wafted in the air actually faded.

"I think the fragrance is washed away by the water, so it's getting weaker and weaker."

Dongfang Mo slowly came to the waterfall ten zhang away, and there was even a burst of cold here.

From time to time, his nose twitched, trying to smell the strange scent again. But the disappointment is that after this, the fragrance has long since disappeared.

"Hmph, I've been chasing you for nearly a day, and Xiaodao doesn't want to go back empty-handed. It's not for nothing that you are a brute and you have come here, no matter how cunning you are, how can you escape the eyes of the trail. Either you jump into the stream or hide behind the waterfall. Dongfang Mo speculated in his heart.

But if the beast ran so far, it was to jump into the stream to die, and he didn't believe it, so nine times out of ten he should have hid behind the waterfall.

Dongfang Mo is extremely experienced, and he can deduce many things with just one thought.

Then he moved his steps carefully, and came to the corner of this waterfall, where he could clearly see this waterfall with a drop of a hundred zhang high, and the silver-white horsemanship was like being smashed down from the nine heavens, Dongfang Mo had no doubt that if he hit his body, he would definitely turn into a puddle of flesh.

When I arrived here, I suddenly saw clearly that the place where this waterfall fell was the mouth of a huge black hole, and the mouth of the stream was like an open giant mouth, with a chill that devoured this silver horse that fell from the nine heavens.

Dongfang Mo swallowed his saliva, moved his steps back, a little away from the bottomless stream, and then turned around again to look at the waterfall behind him.

The body is petite and injured, and there should be no strength to go directly through this waterfall, so there must be an entrance around this waterfall.

Looking around, Dongfang Mo came to the side of the waterfall, and on the side of the waterfall, there was a strange rocky cliff, and there was no overgrown weeds on the cliff.

Looking up at the strange rocks on the cliff, a look of hesitation flashed in Dongfang Mo's eyes, but after a while, he gritted his teeth.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, after chasing for so long, how can you let Xiaodao return empty-handed."

As soon as he lifted the robe under his feet, he reached out and climbed on the rock, this kind of mountaineering ability has been practiced since childhood, so if you want to climb this not too steep cliff, it is naturally not a problem. As long as you are careful not to touch the water flow on the side, otherwise you will be hit by the current and fall into the bottomless stream, which will naturally be dead or alive.

While climbing upwards and carefully looking around, Dongfang Mo has to withstand the cold wind from top to bottom at all times, and the feeling of hanging by a thread is not common.

But only a moment later, when he had climbed to a height of five or six zhang, he saw a black and dark cave diagonally above him, and the hole was not large, only half a zhang high. And when he got to this place, he could smell the faint fragrance again.

Dongfang Mo's expression was happy, his body was as flexible as an ape, and he only came to the outside of the cave after only three or five breaths.

The cave is very well hidden, under a protruding round rock, just enough to block the flow of water, revealing the hole under the rock, which can only be seen from the same height, or from the side of the rock, and it is really impossible to find this hole under the waterfall.

Dongfang Mo came to the bottom of the hole, his hands were forced, and his body jumped into the hole easily, the hole less than half a zhang high was just right for him in his early tens, and he didn't even have to bend down.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, the corners of Dongfang Mo's mouth hung a trace of arc, and only the waterfall rolling down in front of the eyes could be seen here, and the rumbling sound of the water around it was covered, it was indeed a good place to hide.

"Rabbit cub, I'm here, Master Dao, don't get out and die." Dongfang Mo didn't rush inside, but lifted the robe under his feet, and kept shouting, as if he was afraid that the thing would not be heard.

Ordinary hunters who are not cautious, for fear of startling the snake, how can he be so arrogant.

But Dongfang Mo didn't care, when he arrived here, there was such a hole, he didn't believe that the hole was still open, and he could escape from the other side.

In addition, the entrance of this cave is only half a zhang in size, so that if he can still let the beast escape from here, then he has really lived to the dog for more than ten years.

And he shouted like this for another purpose, that is, the hole was pitch black, and he couldn't see his five fingers, and he couldn't figure out the situation inside, so it was naturally good to be able to draw it out of it.

Dongfang Mo shouted for a while, although he was extremely arrogant, but he was full of energy in his heart, always paying attention to the movements in the cave.

At this time, his right hand was also habitually grasped at the placket of his chest, and his expression looked frivolous.

However, after half a ring, there was no movement in the cave. Seeing this, Dongfang Mo slowly squatted down, and grabbed a handful of mud and sand in his hand at will.

A hint of cunning flashed in his eyes: "I see you, little brute." ”

With that, he shook the mud and sand in his hand and threw it somewhere in the cave.

"Rustle."

The mud and sand hit the rocks, and the sound was like rain hitting plantains.

At the same time, Dongfang Mo frowned, judging by the voice just now, this hole is not deep.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, Dongfang Mo took out a few yellow paper talismans drawn by himself from his chest, he had several dozen of these things, and naturally he also had some on his body. Then he took out the fire fold from the cuff, and after blowing hard a few times, he easily lit the yellow paper talisman.

Dongfang Mo's finger turned, and with another flick, the yellow paper talisman was easily ejected by him, shooting straight into the depths.

To be able to pop a thin piece of yellow paper at such a distance is really two strokes in this hand. But in the end, this is just a showcase, it looks okay, but it has no power.

But at the moment when the yellow paper talisman turned into a flash of fire, a sharp cry suddenly came to mind in the cave.

"Squeak"

The sound was a bit like that of a mouse, but it was much more high-pitched. At this moment, the voice was filled with panic, as if it was extremely afraid of the fire.

At the same time, Dongfang Mo could barely see a thin figure rushing out of the hole by the light of the yellow paper talisman, which was several times faster than that of beasts such as mink and civet cats.

Just a pounce, it is already close to the Oriental ink face door.

Where could he have imagined that this beast was so fast, he had only seen it in his life. At this time, he only had time to block his hands in front of him.

"Shhh

Sharp pain suddenly came, Dongfang Mo's arm was bitten by him, and he could feel two sharp fangs piercing into his arm.

With a horizontal heart, he is a lifeless character, and he naturally refuses to suffer at this moment, and the remaining hand is going to grab the little beast.

But when he reached out and touched it, he felt a burning pain hit him, and the little beast let out a sharp cry. It turned out to be Dongfang Mo who grabbed the little beast's wound in a panic, and the dark red blood flowed all over Dongfang Mo's hands, and the hot feeling was like putting his hand into a boiling oil pot.

"Ahh

Dongfang Mo couldn't bear the pain that pierced his heart, and let out a painful roar from his mouth.

But without doing anything, he reached out and plunged directly into the body of the little beast, and then got up and smashed it on the ground. The little beast let out a painful scream, letting go of the fangs that were clenching his arm.

Dongfang Mo was overjoyed in his heart, and stretched out his bitten hand to hold down the little beast fiercely.

And at this moment, he was able to see the appearance of this little beast clearly with the help of the light outside the cave.

It was a small beast the size of a wild cat, but it was dark green, with slender claws, pointed ears, and a pair of dark green fleshy wings on its back. But at this time, it was covered in wounds, dark red blood flowed, and in some places even white bones could be seen, and one of the fleshy wings on its back was broken.

The little beast also had some wisdom in mind, but it had already exhausted its skills when it was seriously injured, and it could only struggle frantically at this time.

Seeing this, Dongfang Mo snorted coldly, his left hand had long been burned numb and unconscious.

"Aren't you afraid of fire, and I'll give you a taste of being burned."

Dongfang Mo picked up the fire fold on the ground that had not been extinguished, and at this moment, he stabbed towards the little beast.

"Squeak!"

The little beast let out a terrified cry that it had never seen before, and the fear in its eyes was unobstructed. However, its body was restrained by Dongfang Mo, and it could only struggle meaninglessly.

In the frightened gaze of the little beast, the sparkling fire fold pierced the little beast's body, and touched the blood on the little beast's wound.

Then the next moment, Dongfang Mo's eyes widened suddenly, and he suddenly withdrew his hands like a snake and scorpion.
