Chapter 32: Grass Tick Nest

The fat man became interested, and pestered Zhang Qixun to sing a few more times, "It's weird and nice to listen to, Muyu, you keep singing, the fat man also wants to learn two sentences." ”

As he was talking, several muffled thunders suddenly sounded overhead, and when he looked up, the black clouds above the canopy were layered, and the lightning flickered, and the rain and stars floated in the air.

"A-Ning" sighed, "The road is in continuous rain, it seems that the Queen Mother of the West does not welcome us, and we are guilty tonight." ”

The fat man said with an indifferent face: "Let's go down, it's best for it to rain, it's cool when it rains, it's so stuffy, you fat man and my head are going to be ripe." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was happy.

Pan Zi scolded with a smile: "Then you have to take care of your head, don't wait for the thunder to be scorched." ”

As soon as the words fell, the rain really fell, and the thunderbolt crackled on the leaves, and the formation began to rise at once, accompanied by thunder, and the rain passed through the canopy and poured over the heads of the people, whipping on the body, and the bleached rain curtain was so thick that people's eyes could not be opened.

"Womb!" The fat man held his head and scolded as he ran, "This special mother can go down whatever she says, and she won't say hello at all." ”

"A-Ning" pointed ahead and shouted, "The vines between the two trees over there are densely entangled, let's go over there and hide."

When they heard this, they ran down the tree, and then climbed up to the tree one after another, and finally they could take a breath.

As soon as the fat man sat down, he immediately bounced up with an "oops", covered his thighs and shouted: "What kind of thing is swishing and crawling in the fat man's trouser legs, hurry up, Muyu, help me take a look." ”

When Zhang Qixun heard this, he immediately leaned over, "Don't move, I'll see if your trouser legs are up." ”

As soon as the fat man let go, he screamed and twisted up, "Oh no, as soon as you let go, you will run up." ”

He squirmed around, and Zhang Qixun couldn't do anything, so he had to suggest: "You can shake your pants and see if you can shake them off." ”

The fat man swished at the hair, as if there was something running around and slapping and beating, and it took a long time to stop, and he hesitated: "It seems to be gone." ”

"Huh? Wait a minute, you've got something behind your pants. Wu Xiaoxie suddenly saw something, reached into the crack of his pants, and leaned under the miner's lamp to see that a grass-brown flower insect the size of a fingernail flapped its claws between his fingers, "What is this? Bugger? ”

Zhang Qixun slapped the insects off his hands and shouted, "Grass ticks! it, there's grass ticks in this place. ”

Everyone was shocked, and when they moved their feet, they found that this place was clearly a grass tick nest!

The leaves and trunks under him were all densely packed with flowers and insects, attracted by the fresh blood, but they were afraid of anything and did not dare to climb directly on people.

"There's no branch over there, go over there." Zhang Qixun pointed to the tree on the other side and shouted.

The crowd hurriedly slipped down the tree and climbed onto another tree.

"Let's see if there's anything on the fat man's pants?" The fat man was so anxious that he screamed, pouted his waist and squeezed Wu Xiaoxie's face, so angry that Wu Xiaoxie scolded.

Zhang Qixun smiled and patted him, "When did your pants crack?" I guess I accidentally rubbed the grass tick into it when I was sitting just now, and the quality of the things I produced is absolutely guaranteed, and I didn't see mosquitoes walking around us along the way. ”

"That's just as well." The fat man scratched his head, twisted his body and felt it, as if there was really nothing unusual on his body.

For the sake of safety, except for Zhang Qixun and the little brother, Wu Xiaoxie and the fat man all lifted their trouser legs and clothes and checked each other to make sure that they were not stained with grass ticks.

The fat man complained: "These pants are too small, and when I moved stones through the Devil's City, I didn't pay attention to the crotch to crack, and the special mother was still thinking about it when it was so hot and cool, but I forgot it when I entered the forest, thanks to the insect prevention artifact you gave by the wooden fish, otherwise the fat man would have to bite through the grass tick this time." ”

Wu Xiaoxie laughed at him and said, "If you don't lose weight, you will suffer this time." ”

The fat man ignored his taunts, leaned over to Zhang Qixun's side, and asked in a low voice, "Muyu, do you have any needles and threads in your treasure chest, I'll find a place to sew my pants, and then don't close the door, if I get into something else, it will kill me." ”

"Wait." Zhang Qixun put down the backpack, freed up half of the contents inside, found a pair of camouflage overalls, tore them open and shook them, and handed them to him, "Here, thanks to my foresight, I got a set for each of us, let's change it quickly." ”

The fat man was happy, ran to the side and put on a new one, and did not lose the pants with a torn crotch, and folded them squarely for Zhang Qixun to sit on.

"A Ning" rolled his eyes, "It's not confinement, it's so squeamish." ”

Zhang Qixun was about to refuse, but when he heard the words, he immediately sat down sincerely, and smiled at "A-Ning", "I want you to take care of it." ”

The fat man was not used to her, and replied: "The fat man is called Brother and Friend Gong, Muyu is the youngest of us, what's wrong with me taking care of it?" You're an outsider, but you're wide-ranging. ”

Angry, "A-Ning" clenched his fists and released them, snorted coldly, walked to the side and turned his back to ignore him.

Panzi tied a tarp with a rope between the branches and built a temporary shelter for everyone to shelter from the rain.

Everyone simply ate something to replenish their energy, and the turned on gas lamp had already dried their clothes half-dry, and several people leaned on each other in pairs, chatting and chatting a little drowsy.

Panzi said, "I'll be on guard, you all have a good rest." ”

The little brother didn't mean to sleep, he just held the knife, leaned his back against the trunk of the tree, and stared blankly at the bottom of the tree, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhang Qixun closed his eyes and just squinted for a while, and suddenly felt a black shadow flash in front of him, startled, stood up suddenly, Wu Xiaoxie, who was leaning on him, had no support, his body was crooked, and the fat man's head next to him was knocked together, and he made a "oops" sound in pain.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Thinking that they had encountered some danger, several people stood up at once and looked around vigilantly with the guns beside them.

Zhang Qixun waved his hand and said comfortingly: "It's okay, the little brother suddenly shook in front of my eyes just now, and now he went down to the bottom of the tree." ”

Wu Xiaoxie rubbed his head and wondered, "What is he going to do now?" ”

"I don't know." Pan Zi carried the miner's lamp to the tree, and the little brother couldn't see the shadow anymore, so he said helplessly, "I was sitting well, but he got up and got down the tree without saying a word, and I didn't have time to ask." ”

Zhang Qixun picked up the knife on his back, and also grabbed the tree and slid down, "I'll take a look, you guys stay on it first." ”

When I went down to the bottom of the tree, I looked left and right, and everywhere was empty, and there was not even a ghost shadow.

I couldn't help muttering in my heart, strange, what about people? It's not going to run away again, no, it's not time yet.

Just thinking about it, the branch above his head suddenly trembled, and then the little brother's small body came out of the shadow covered by the plant, and when he saw Zhang Qixun, he beckoned him to come up.
