Chapter 89: Humanity in the Treetops
Obviously, John and George, who thought they were strong, got into the wolves only to find that there were thousands of wolves here, and they were surrounded by the wolves without firing a few shots.
It's so easy for these coyotes to besiege one person in hundreds, I imagine hundreds of fanged mouths, green eyes, and the fear of approaching.
John and George didn't have time to fire a few shots, and when they saw the wolves approaching, the best thing to do was to climb up the tree. Most of the guns were thrown aside when they were about to climb the tree, and the two ladies had completely ignored their usual elegance, and must have climbed the tree faster than the monkeys.
Poor horses, all buried in the wolf's mouth, and the four soldiers who guarded it were also dead in the wilderness, presumably to take care of John and George's two families to go up the tree as soon as possible, and when they were in charge of the break, they were bitten by the coyote who pounced on them.
The coyotes rushed to gnaw and lick the blood and flesh of the centaurs, and the scene was very tragic. Whenever a coyote approached, John and George screamed in fright.
I saw Nemo and Luna on a tree, and Wood climbed up their tree as well, and he took Luna in his arms, tears streaming down his face, "Baby, Daddy is not good!" You ran out and scared me to death. I figured it out, I'm not going anywhere, as long as you're safe and well. Don't be afraid, with Dad here, no one can bully you, not even coyotes! ”
Wood's arrival also gave Luna more security, and she only called "Daddy" and fell into Wood's arms.
I can't help but sigh that the Wood family is finally reunited, but the place of reunion is actually in the tree, which is really embarrassing, and maybe they may even go to Yellow Springs together.
Wood was taken aback, "Baby, what's wrong with you?" ”
Nemo said: "Hungry, we have been in the tree for three days, and we don't dare to sleep without eating or drinking for three days, how can a delicate girl like my sister-in-law stand it." ”
Wood hurriedly took the jerky out of his backpack, and Nemo and Luna saw the jerky in their eyes glowing, grabbed it and gnawed on it.
Nemo ate with relish, and gave Luna another piece: "Sister-in-law, this is my brother's craft!" ”
Luna's face flushed and she didn't speak.
Wood was surprised, "Nemo, your name is Sister-in-law Luna?" ”
Nemo ate the jerky and said vaguely: "Of course, when I first met my sister-in-law, she told me in person, and later at the Governor's Palace, she also admitted it. ”
Wood suddenly realized: "Nemo, you mean bugs! ”
Nemo nodded repeatedly: "By the way, why didn't my brother come?" Where is he? ”
This time it was Wood's turn to be a little embarrassed, and he smiled bitterly: "It's all because I didn't listen to him and ran over." Where he is now, I don't know. ”
Nemohaha smiled, "Then don't worry, as long as my brother comes, we will be safe." "Nemo has an almost blind confidence in me.
I looked closely, and the John and George families were each concentrated in a tree.
There were also three people on each of the other two trees, and when I saw these people, I was amazed.
There were three people lying on a tall tree, one short and fat, one thin and tall, it turned out to be a cat and a dog, a cat was holding a rifle, and a dog was bare-handed, but there was a rifle under the tree, I don't know if it was accidentally dropped, or it ran out of bullets and was thrown away. I amused the other man, tall and thin, with a beard in front of the mountain, holding a thick trunk of a tree that seemed to be dying. The miser snorted and chirped there and scolded the cat and the dog, "You two bastards, you have to hunt some coyotes, now there are more wolves, you should jump down and kill!" Ouch yo ...... Why is my life so bitter, the first time I went out hunting, I wanted to kill the wolf, but I didn't expect to be eaten by the wolf in the end, this has to be passed out, and people must not laugh off their big teeth! ”
A cat replied: "Master, I also wish you, who made you feel sorry for so many bullets!" You've ever seen anyone who went out hunting and let them bring three bullets, and this is what I said to Ah Gou for a long time before you agreed. ”
Ah Gou also said: "That's it, if we don't say it, you still plan to bring a bullet!" ”
Qian Yan scolded: "Fart, what do you know, don't you know that bullets are expensive now?" How can I be greedy for you two losers. He also bragged to me every day that he was a sharpshooter, and if I were to say that a sharpshooter would have to be like a worm, holding a slingshot and picking a stone to hunt. ”
I couldn't help but laugh that although the slingshot can hunt, it can only shoot birds, and if you encounter a coyote, you can't even compare to a burning stick.
Cats and dogs have suffered at my hands, and they no longer speak. Qian Yan watched Nemo eat jerky, greedy, "Hey, Mr. Wood, I'm Qian Yan, we've met." ”
Wood nodded, "Yes, the money shopkeeper of the Ottoman jewelry store." Can I help you? ”
"You can throw me a piece of that jerky, we've been stuck in the tree for three days, we have nothing to eat or drink, I guess if we hold on, everyone will have to eat the leaves."
Wood took out a piece of jerky and was about to throw it over, Nemo said: "Mr. Wood, we have been trapped for three days, and it is estimated that we may be trapped again, Brother Bug and I were trapped in a tree for seven days, and in those seven days, we did live by eating leaves, but then we were so thirsty that Brother Bug even drank urine." Are you sure you want to be so generous with that goatee? ”
I scolded secretly, "Nemo, you bastard, you actually told me all the troubles. ”
After hearing this, Qian Yan immediately scolded: "Nemo, you 24K pure bastard, what nonsense are you talking about." ”
I almost laughed out loud, and the money eyes and curses with a strong copper smell. He continued: "Mr. Wood, don't listen to this black boy's nonsense, I'm ...... I can buy it, how about I pay a pound for half of your jerky? ”
Nemo and Qian Yan only knew each other, not familiar, he said: "Yes, Qian Yan, you take the money, let's pay the money with one hand and deliver it with the other." ”
Qian Yan was so angry that he almost turned his back on it, "Bastard, if I can pass, can I buy a piece of your meat for a pound?" ”
"Then you can also throw the money over, but let's say okay, if I don't receive it, I won't take your money."
"How can I throw away a bill so light?" Qian Yan said with a glare.
"You can tie a stone or bark."
"It's a great idea." After saying that, Qian Yan asked Ah Mao to cut a piece of bark, tied a pound sterling and threw it towards Nemo.
The bark spun and flew away, only halfway away, and fell to the ground with a thud.
Nemo said loudly: "Money Eye, I didn't take this money, it can't be counted." ”
Qian Yan covered his heart, "My money!" My money! ”
Ah Mao handed over another piece of bark and handed it over: "Master, tie another one!" ”
Qian Yan went crazy, "Fart, I'm not tied up, I'd rather starve to death than tie up!" After speaking, he hugged the trunk of the tree and hummed again, "A cat, a dog, if I starve to death in a tree, you remember that there are two funeral parlors in Bryden, and the coffin board of the one in the East City is thick, and the money required is too much, so you can't go there to order a coffin." Besides, my lord, I am an Ottoman, and I don't pay attention to thick burials, so when the time comes, the two of you will bury me, and as for the scriptures, just borrow a book and read it. ”
Suddenly, Qian Yan laughed, "What the hell are you buying, if I'm dying, I'm sure to fall from the tree, these wolf cubs will already chew my bones and meat, buy a coffin to hold air!" Haha, I didn't expect that when my money died, I would even be able to save the coffin. Good! That's nice! ”
Nemo also laughed, "Qian Yan, I can't complain that Pi You said that you fell into Qian You, and you will die and worry about which coffin is cheaper." I see you fall from a tree, and the coyotes may not eat you! ”
"Why?" Qian Yan asked.
"The coyote will probably think that this is a miser, there must be no oil and water on him, and it tastes like chewed sugar cane."
Qian Yan was mad, he sat up all of a sudden, pointed at Nemo and scolded: "You black boy, I'm ...... I'm going to peel you off! ”
Nemo grinned, hooked his finger at Qian Yan, and said loudly, "Come here!" ”
I found that Nemo has become more and more outgoing since he got acquainted with Piyou, and he used to be a fool, but now he actually makes fun of money.
At this time, the man on another tree said to Nemo, "Nemo, don't talk to that miser, I'm starving to death, throw me a piece of jerky." ”
I distinctly saw the fat chef lying on a tree. It's just that their tree is not very tall, and the fat chef is really fat, much fatter than a cat, so the tree is about to be bent by the fat chef. Together with the fat chef were his two brothers, and I naturally remember that one of them was called Sunday and the other was called Pi.
I've heard Fat Chef say that his second brother was born to his mother during the prayer, so it's called Sunday, and his third brother was born on March 14, so it's called Pi.
The three brothers were also trapped in a tree for some reason. The fat chef was already dizzy from hunger, and when he saw the jerky in Nemo's hand, he begged him for it.
Nemo was embarrassed and said, "Fat chef, I wanted to give you some jerky, but unfortunately we are too far apart, how can I throw this over!" ”
Indeed, Nemo and the fat chef's trees are nearly fifty meters apart, and a piece of jerky is estimated to be difficult to throw over.
The fat chef grinned, "If only the bugs were there, he must have a way." ”
I've never liked the fat chef's philistine, but I didn't expect him to be thinking of me here, and I was still a little moved in my heart.
Unable to eat meat, the fat chef lost his temper with the brothers, "It's strange to blame you two, you have to pull me to hunt, how good it is for me to stay in the hotel with that kung fu, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, now it's good, after listening to your words on Sunday, I ran out to hunt, I didn't eat a wolf hair, my meat is about to be fed to the wolf, you will really take your brother as a Sunday." ”
Sunday said apologetically: "Big brother, I can't stop you!" If you're hungry, drink water to satisfy your hunger. ”
The fat chef scolded: "Phew, you said it nicely, is that water, that's urine, and the kettle has long been out of water." ”
Pi smiled and said: "Big brother, I heard that there were three brothers with different surnames in ancient China, called Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, they became brothers with different surnames in Taoyuan, not to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but to die on the same day of the same month and month, but the three of them did not die on the same day and month of the same year, I think our three brothers are stronger than them, and they did not be born on the same day and month of the same year, but we died on the same day and month of the same year." ”
The fat chef scolded again: "Phew, you bastard, you died on the same day in different years, the same month, if all three of us brothers died on the same day, the same month, who will feed our mother?" The old lady knows that the three of us brothers died in one day, so we can't die of distress? Pi, you little bastard, don't talk nonsense. I thought about it, but it really can't work, brother, I'll go out and come to a tiger to leave the mountain. ”
Sunday and Pi said: "How do you tune the tiger off the mountain?" ”
"I'll jump off the tree and run west, and I'll get these wolf cubs away, and you'll run east. That's the only way. ”
The two brothers were shocked: "Big brother, it must not be like this?" ”
The fat chef said loudly: "This is no way, I will cut two pieces of meat from the leg in a while, and the two of you will make do with it first, what is this Chinese story called?" ”
Qian Yan laughed after hearing this, "This is called cutting shares and Fengjun, and that's how China's Jie Zi Tui plays." ”
The fat chef nodded and said, "Yes, cut the shares and Fengjun, the two of you will have the strength to run when you are full." Even if you don't have a stove at hand, you can only eat it raw. So saying, he took up the dagger and cut the flesh.
Pi grabbed the fat chef's hand and cried out, "Big brother, you can't do this!" ”
On Sunday, he also shook the fat chef's head and said, "Xiaohong, you are crazy, we are brothers, you don't want to think about it, can we eat your meat?" It's not the end now, don't worry, there will always be a way. ”
Even though he said this on Sunday, he didn't do anything about it.
Qian Yan laughed and said: "Fat chef, you still learn to push meson, just your fat body, you can't run fifty meters will let the coyote catch up, you cut two pieces of meat from the leg, when the time comes, you will limp, and you still want to race with the coyote, you are not luring away the coyote, you are directly giving up your life to feed the coyote!" ”
The fat chef scolded: "Then I am better than you, I just fed the wolf, I am also worthy of the sky, worthy of the earth, worthy of my parents and brothers in the middle, unlike you miser, Nemo is right, you are drilled into the mouth of the coyote, coyotes are not rare to eat, no oil and water......" The fat chef deliberately pulled the three words "no oil and water" for a long time, and the sheep's beard curled up again.
John and George's family looked at Nemo, Moneyeye, and Fat Chef, and seemed to feel that something was wrong, but they had just climbed the tree, and they were not as close to the end of the mountain as the others.
Here John shouted, "Don't make any noise, you see that the coyotes are full of food and drink, and they are leaving!" Let's get down the tree now and let's go together! ”
He was about to leave, but saw Moneyeye, Nemo, and Fat Chef looking at him like a fool, motionless.
Nemo didn't have a good impression of John, he sneered and said, "It's good that we're staying in the trees, let's go!" ”
John looked at Nemo for a long time, and snorted coldly: "I remember, you are the black boy with that Chinese kid in the Governor's Palace, what I want to do, I don't need you to worry about it." George, let's get down the tree and walk together! ”
George hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist the temptation, and the family slowly got down the tree, so that the two families, a total of six people, picked up the rifle on the ground and walked the way they came.
Woodch said, "Luna, Nemo, the coyotes are gone, why don't we go!" ”
Without waiting for Nemo and Luna to answer, Qian Yan said with a bitter face, "Mr. Wood, if we can go, won't we leave sooner?" It's not strange that as soon as someone walks up the tree, they can't go far and there will be a strange whistle on the mountain, and as soon as the whistle sounds, the coyotes who have run away will come back from all directions, and more and more each time, it's weird. ”
Wood asked, "Then why don't we stop John and George?" ”
Qian Yan blushed rarely, and the fat chef said: "This is a bit complicated, one is that you said that they may not believe it, and the other is that if you believe it, they may not be able to resist the temptation. ”
Wood was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly shouted to John, who was gradually walking away: "John, George, come back quickly!" Danger, come back quickly! ”
However, what Qian Yan said was true, John and George just glanced back at Wood, and then continued on their way, and it was useless for Wood to shout that he had cut his throat.
It was here that a low whistle sounded in the bushes about twenty meters in front of me, and it was long and far, like a muffled thunder that resounded through the wilderness, and like a thick cloud sweeping through the sky for half a day.
In an instant, the howls of thousands of wolves sounded in all directions, and the whistles continued, and the wolf howls continued, and they gradually gathered around the fountain.
I suddenly felt that the name Fountain was really bad, and these coyotes seemed to be very nostalgic for this place and refused to leave.
