Chapter 1 Who said that a girl can't outrun a monster
Anji lay quietly in a shallow pit a palm deep, her arms and calves were wrapped with black-brown linen bands, and the dark red scarf tightly wrapped her hair and lower face, revealing only a pair of emerald eyes, blurring her vision in the early morning moisture.

This is the outermost part of Area 6, and there are only a few small villages formed by the spontaneous gathering of hunters nearby. Anglas, this is the name of Anji's village, such a small village is inconspicuous, and there is no corresponding registration information even in the city-state household registration administration.
The early winter morning is very cold, and Anji, who is lying in the Andes mountain wind, feels the same way, only has a linen shirt and pants on his body, and his arms and calves are wrapped with cloth belts, on the one hand, to keep out the cold, and more importantly, to make his movements more sensitive.
Today is the hunting day of Angras, and when it is dark, Angie and his brother Andy follow the adults to the foot of the Andes. This is the tuyere of the mountains, and the cold wind blowing in the wind exudes a faint salty taste, and I heard my father say that the other side of the mountain range is the sea.
Anji lay flat on her back, a palm-deep pit of dirt that covered almost all traces. She was so thin that after her father died, she could only get a little food every day. Even thinner is the younger brother, and the little boy is just when he grows up, and although Angie gives him most of the food, it is only a drop in the bucket.
Thinking of his brother's dream of shouting "hungry" in his sleep every day, Anji's heart was sour. The younger brother was very sensible and knew that it would be useless for him to shout that he was hungry, so he didn't want to tell himself, but he didn't want to dream in the middle of the night that he had betrayed him countless times.
As long as he participated in the hunt, he was able to share more food, and even allowed his younger brother to eat bread. Thinking about it, Anji's heart became hot, and the cold wind hitting her eyelashes became less dazzling.
The target appeared! Thinking about the happiness of his brother swallowing bread, Anji's sight slowly entered a huge figure.
The mountain god, this is the most commonly hunted demon beast by hunters, the huge body of nearly five meters high is covered with thick hair, and the fangs of Bai Sensen are pointed forward. Heavy, four-legged hooves crushed the gravel of the Andes, and the tail as thick as a steel whip swept the crushed stone foam into the air, and was blown by the wind to Anji's face.
Angie squinted, her long eyelashes blocking the rubble, and the dark red scarf successfully held out the sand.
These little details are all learned from Dad, whether it is tying a linen belt or lying flat in a shallow dirt pit, it is a valuable experience accumulated by Dad's father as a "jumper" in countless hunts. Every time she hunted, Angie followed her father to carefully learn this valuable knowledge. Dad never intended to let his children participate in hunting, so Angie had to study secretly.
It wasn't until her father was killed by the mountain god by mistake during a hunt that the desperate Angie thought of using what she had learned to get more food for herself and her brother.
The mountain god stepped on the ground and approached slowly, his body looked bulky, but in fact the mountain god had a terrifying short-range sprint speed, and those who underestimated it would be pierced by the white fangs of the forest, and be run over by the mountain-like body, paying the price of their lives.
Anji carefully watched the distance between the mountain god and herself, her muscles tensed slightly, her breathing became rapid, and the thick white steam overflowed from the dark red scarf, and there was a thin layer of hoarfrost in front of her.
It's close, it's close. Anji stared at the mountain god slowly approaching the critical point, carefully estimating. The mountain god's short-range sprint ability is terrifying, but his eyesight is very weak, only 37 meters of the limit of sight, and the distance is only a gray yellow in the mountain god's hideous beast pupils.
40,39,38,37!As soon as the mountain god reached the critical point of 37 meters, Anji, who was tense in his muscles, jumped up with a "brush", relaxed and lying on his body and did not stiffen because he did not move for a long time, turned around and began to run, and the soles of his feet, which were only wrapped in two layers of linen, stepped lightly on the cold ground.
Angie's speed was fast, her slender body was fully stretched, and the Andes wind gathered happily behind her like a pair of wings. The mountain god chasing behind him is more like an indestructible **** chariot, from seeing Anji to throwing off his hooves to chase, the mountain god reached Anji's maximum speed in an instant, and this speed is still increasing as time flies.
Angie didn't have to look behind her at all, listening to the sound of hooves like a drum brought by the wind, her heart beat faster and faster, and her breathing became longer.
With the help of the wind, Anji's speed increased further, but the speed of the mountain god had reached its peak, although the distance between the mountain god and Anji was still shortening, but the shortening speed was greatly slowed down.
At the same time, behind a slightly higher mountain rock in the distance, a group of hunters dressed in animal skins watched in surprise as Anji smoothly led the mountain god towards the predetermined hunting spot. When Angie asked to become a "jumper", the hunters almost didn't agree, they didn't believe that the 12-year-old had the speed and strength to rival that of Antbes.
But Hans's recommendation gave Angie a chance to practice, and seeing Angie's windy speed and machine-like leap in the rocky beach, the hunters finally agreed to Angie's request.
When the fangs of the mountain god were about to penetrate Anji's slender body, Anji finally ran to the rocky beach. One jumped, Anji jumped onto a one-person-high stone, and the fangs of the mountain god were fiercely stuck on the small stone, and with one flick, the stone strung on the fangs shattered into several petals and flew into the distance.
Angie on the stone had already jumped onto the next stone. The area of the rocky beach is very wide, and it is covered with countless stones of all sizes, many of which have irregular sharp edges and corners, like a handle blade that wantonly exudes a penetrating cold, so the rocky beach is also called "the blade prison".
Entering the rocky beach, the speed of the mountain god finally slowed down, and the huge beast head brutally smashed all the stones in front of him, and some small stones passed directly, and the thick body rubbed the sharp edges and corners of the stones on both sides, and blood marks began to climb up its body.
Anji jumps agilely between the stones, unlike the mountain god's linear rampage, Anji needs to carefully select the stones that are suitable for landing, and his body is up and down, and Anji, who walks the zigzag route, is like a spirit dancing on the tip of a knife.
Short enough to dodge the gravel that was knocked away by the mountain god, Anji's movements became more and more agile. From an early age, she had a very special talent, an innate sense of control over herself and her environment. Angie can accurately and quickly measure the size, weight, distance and even temperature of everything in her field of vision. At the same time, Angie can freely control every muscle in his body, so even if he is severely malnourished, Angie still has the speed and jumping ability of the wind.
When he arrived, he jumped nearly three hundred meters in the rocky beach with the mountain god all the time, and Anji could clearly hear the thunderous heartbeat from the mountain god behind him. After plowing nearly three hundred meters in the rocky beach like this, even the mountain god began to feel physically exhausted, and coupled with the blood loss caused by the small jagged wounds on his body, the mountain god no longer had the momentum that he had been indomitable at the beginning.
Sensing that the mountain god was physically exhausted, Anji also slowed down slowly, and even deliberately stayed on the stone on which he landed several times for a while, so as to lure the mountain god to the "sawtooth" trap.
The mountain god really lived up to expectations, and when Anji almost died under its fangs several times, he once again accumulated full of anger, and his movements became more and more rude.
Anji's eyes lit up, he turned over and jumped down a two-person high stone, and the mountain god was not to be outdone, buried his head in smashing the huge stone, and rushed out after Anji, who had climbed down.
It is a relatively flat open space with a radius of nearly 30 meters. In the center of the clearing, a palm-thick black giant blade stretched out at an angle of 15 degrees from the ground, and the exposed part was nearly 10 meters long. The tip and end of the black blade could not be seen, and the exposed part was only one side, and in the middle of the palm-thick side blade was a black and faint gap.
Looking into the gap, you can feel the biting cold air rushing towards you, as if a deadly poisonous snake is hiding in the gap, waiting for an opportunity to bite out.
Anji ran all the way, seducing the mountain god to run in the direction of the giant blade, deliberately slowing down on the way, keeping an appropriate distance from the mountain god. The "sawtooth" trap requires the "jumper" to maintain an appropriate distance from the prey in order to exert its maximum power.
Stepping on the black giant blade that stretched out, the soles of the feet wrapped in the linen belt landed precisely on the blade that was only one palm thick, and the toes that were a little white because of the cold ground and the giant blade were slightly opened, making Anji's body more stable.
The mountain god behind him ignored the giant blade that could only rub against his belly, and his four hooves landed on both sides of the giant blade powerfully, constantly shortening the distance between him and Anji, who had slowed down a little when he jumped on the giant blade.
Running all the way to the end of the giant blade, Angie jumped high and landed the ground. With a "click", the faint and inaudible sound of the mechanism activating dissipated in the bitter cold wind, followed by a terrible wail.
Angie trotted a few steps, then looked back. Two rows of triangular blades nearly a meter long emerged from the blunt blade, resembling the serrations on a chainsaw. The mountain god with four hooves on either side of the giant blade was pierced by the blade, and his round body stood upright on the giant blade, and a large amount of blood gushed out like a fountain of the triangular blade, and there were also a large number of broken internal organs.
The mountain god screamed miserably, his feet were weak, and the triangular blade greedily bit more than ten centimeters into its body. At this time, the blood on the abdomen was not gushing but gushing out, and the black giant blade was completely dyed dark red, and the cold blade surface emitted a large amount of steam when it touched the warm blood.
Anji's emerald eyes widened as she watched as the "sawtooth" almost cut the mountain god in half. The calves began to tremble a little, and as soon as they stopped, they felt that their bodies had reached their limits, and they were panting violently with their hands on their knees, and the white vapor from the scarf almost covered their heads.
"Angie, well done. ”
"Well done, Angie!"
"You're a great jumper, Angie. ”
"You have the greatest credit this time, Anji, and everyone will definitely share the best loot with you. ”
......
Hula walked by a group of hunters dressed in animal skins, and they neatly pulled out hemp rope with the thickness of their forearms to tie up the mountain god who was only half breathing. In fact, the "sawtooth" can only last for 3 minutes, if you can't subdue the mountain god within 3 minutes, after the "sawtooth" falls, you can't use it for a second time in a short time, and the mountain god with a strong body recovery speed is likely to recover a certain amount of physical strength, and all the hunters present will be slaughtered.
This is a bloody lesson, because Anji's father was killed by the mountain god who had recovered a certain amount of physical strength, so the hunters had to move quickly, and when the "sawtooth" fell, they had to stalemate with the mountain god who only had half a breath left for nearly half an hour before they could completely kill him.
"Sister!" came a dependent voice. Anji, who watched the hunters on her knees and tie up the mountain god, felt soft in her heart, and quickly turned around and hugged her brother who ran to her side.
"Andy, I made it, Andy, we finally have enough food. Anji cried with joy, hugging her brother and shouting with tears.
"Sister, I know, you are the best sister. Hurry up and put your clothes on, Andy doesn't want his sister to cry, Andy wants his sister to be happy forever. ”
Listening to his younger brother's immature and resolute voice, Anji wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, ripped off the scarf around his face, and showed his delicate and heroic face, and his shoulder-length golden medium and long hair was also exposed to the air, and the earlobes that were a little red because of excitement were half hidden in the hair.
Angie took the coat that her brother was holding and wrapped her body tightly under the comfortable animal skin. It's warm, Angie's heart moved. My brother must have been wearing his own clothes just now, and he wanted to be able to wrap himself in a warm coat as soon as possible. Thinking about it, Angie could no longer control the overflowing tear ducts, and the tears flowed through her fair face again.
"Don't cry, sister, Andy doesn't want her sister to cry, Andy wants her sister to be happy for the rest of her life, don't cry anymore, okay. ”
"Eun, I won't cry anymore, Andy, my sister won't cry anymore, my sister promised you that she would be happy for the rest of her life. Looking at her brother with resolute eyes, Angie controlled the muscles in her eyes and forcibly held back her tears. After her father died, it was her younger brother who took care of her, enlightened her, and let her out of the shadow of losing her father. Compared with himself, his younger brother is more sensible and strong, his younger brother is his only support, and if he loses his younger brother one day, he doesn't know how to live.
Andy, I will never leave you for the rest of my life. Secretly determined, Angie smiled and led her brother to the side of the boulder and sat down. The hunters and their younger brother came from a hidden path on the other side, and the gravel on the path was cleared so that the hunters could transport their prey.
Sitting on the boulder, holding his brother's hand, most of the time Anji was looking at his younger brother who was somewhat similar to himself, but his face was more resolute, a few times Anji would look at the center of the flat ground, the mountain god had already swallowed, and the "sawtooth" had already fallen, the hunters skillfully peeled the thick fur on the mountain god's body, and the muscles oozing blood beads were exposed to the air, and the bloody gas was carried away far away by the mountain wind.
Dad, I've been able to take care of myself and my brother, and I hope you can find Mom in Heaven. Thinking of her father, Anji's face was a little sad, but more of an expectation and yearning for her future life.
The wind faded, and the sun finally climbed into the air, and the shreds of sunlight poured down, reflecting a soft glow on Anji's golden hair. Andy snuggled up to his sister, his thin arms gently wrapped around his sister's waist, and his black eyes quietly poured into his sister.
Happiness may be long, long, but ......
