Chapter 54: Snow Country
"You're finally back, the hour is coming soon, I thought something had happened to you!" Jin let out a sigh of relief.
"There was indeed a little accident." The tower explained the journey in detail.
"Isn't it just killing a mammoth? If you can't even do that, then how are you going to fight those ancient beasts? Xiao Jin said lightly, "On the contrary, I am quite interested in that spider." ”
"Oh, could it be that there is another mystery in it?"
"Do you know amber?"
"I don't know much." The tower tells the truth.
"Amber is a resin buried in the ground, petrified by thousands of years of heat and pressure, it is a very valuable ore, and the insects are even more precious, like the spider mosquito bucket you just said, it is absolutely priceless."
"That spider finally died well, leaving a rare treasure for future generations." The tower sighed.
Xiao Jin still felt a little regretful, "You missed an opportunity that can be famous for eternity." ”
"What? I don't understand what you mean. ”
"You left your name on the resin, and if this amber can see the light of day in a few years, what will scientists say when they see the words 'Eiffel Tower is here'?" Jin finds it interesting to think about.
"Isn't that a prank? If you think about it, I'm not as boring as you are. Tie Ta smiled, "Besides, fame and fortune are like floating clouds to me, what do you want that false name to do?" ”
"Alright! You have noble character, I am a low-level taste. Xiao Jin made a movement of raising his feet and kicking people, and couldn't help but say that he drove him off the flying saucer, and he must have reached the next stop.
With a "plop", all parts of the tower's body except for its head fell into thick snow.
"This place is quite suitable for Xiao Meng and his elephant herd." The tower greedily admired the snow, which was the largest snow he had ever seen in his life, and there was snow everywhere at a glance, and the tall trees were bent down by the snow, like an old man with a heavy load on his shoulders. In this world of ice and snow, white is the only color, and although it is slightly monotonous, it is extremely holy. The tower couldn't help but be childish, pinched a ball of snow and threw it forward, and the two fluffy hares under the snow were startled and disappeared, and it could be seen from their eyes that they were very dissatisfied.
Tie Ta smiled: "Little rabbit, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to. Although the snow was several feet deep, it had no effect on him, and the snow automatically parted to both sides when the true qi was released slightly, and a path magically appeared in front of him.
After wandering around in the mountains for half an hour, not to mention the spars, not even a single rock has been seen, the iron tower can't help but feel a little anxious, will it be in vain this time?
Suddenly, the red light on the opposite mountain flashed, like the rising red sun, reflecting the snow-covered earth in a fiery red.
"There it is!" The tower was excited, and quickly ran towards the light, cutting through the snow four or five meters deep, and a red spar lay there alone. "Baby, don't worry, I'll take you home." As he spoke, he leaned over to hug the long-lost wanderer.
At this moment, there was a loud roar of "whoop" behind him, and a big bear jumped out of the snow, with a white body without a single miscellaneous hair, more than two meters tall and weighing more than a thousand catties, and pounced on him with teeth and claws.
The iron tower flashed sideways, the iron palm of the big bear slapped on the big tree on the side, the snow swept down as if a blizzard had fallen, and the thigh-thick trunk "snapped" and broke off.
"I've been hungry for so long, but I can finally have a hot meal today." The big bear danced happily.
"Really? It depends on whether you have the strength or not. Iron Tower laughed, "Look at your soft appearance, I guess you will continue to starve today." ”
"What? How dare you make fun of me? If I don't give you a little bit of power, you won't know that Lord Ma has three eyes. The big bear was furious, waving his palms and pounced again.
Iron Tower smiled contemptuously, he had fought elephants and rhinoceros, and compared to their weight of thousands of pounds, the bear was too small to speak. He shook his head, and the iron horns passed through the two bear paws just to stop at the chest, and as long as he entered an inch, the big bear would become a dead bear. With a slight push of the tower's left hand, the self-inflicted creature rolled down the mountain like a sweet potato, and the screams kept echoing in the quiet mountains.
"It's not that I like to see blood, it's that I have something urgent, so I can only solve it quickly, and such a thick snow shouldn't be able to kill you." The tower smiled, carrying the hedron and preparing to leave.
"Ouch, it hurts me, help!" Screams were heard from nowhere.
When the tower listened, it seemed to be coming from under the tree that the bear had knocked down. He moved the trunk away with his foot, and a small squirrel jumped out.
The little guy shook the snowflakes on his body, and said with a sad face: "My home is gone, what should I do?" ”
Tie Ta was very unhappy, although his home was destroyed by the big bear, but after all, he had nothing to do with himself, so he had to comfort him and said: "You are smart and capable, this difficulty will definitely not be difficult for you, it's a big deal to settle down again!" ”
"It's easy for you to say that." The little squirrel said with a sad face, "Where do you want me to find a tree hole in this cold and snowy place?" Besides, there is still so much grain that needs to be transferred, and I definitely can't do it alone, which is in trouble. ”
Although the time is pressing, it is too much to say that he will leave like this, this is not the style of the tower, and he immediately promised: "Don't worry, I will help you build a new home, and it is guaranteed to be better than this." ”
The little squirrel said gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Bison, my name is Hairball." ”
"Hello Furball, my name is Iron Tower." Iron Tower smiled, his name was really not wrong.
The hairball pulled away the snow, and a small tree hole appeared in front of him, it seems that the living conditions of this buddy are not too good, the place is not big, but there are also two large backpacks woven with vines, which is even more embarrassing, it is estimated that you have to curl up your legs to sleep, it must be that the violent blow just now knocked the backpack down, and the ground is sprinkled with pine nuts, chestnuts, and peanuts. The hairball was shocked, and quickly jumped in to pick it up, and said distressed while picking it up: "You can't just waste the food, this is what I saved with great difficulty." ”
Furball brother, can you hurry up? I'm really in a hurry! The tower was almost suffocated by him, and he wanted to go up to help but couldn't.
"Brother Tower, are your feet cold? How do you stomp your feet there? After everything was cleaned up, Furball asked puzzled.
Where am I cold, is it in a hurry? Iron Tower couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Can I go?" ”
"I'll check again, and I can't leave anything behind." Hairball lowered his head and counted his belongings, this guy was born not in a hurry.
A cold wind howled by, and a fist-sized block of ice fell from the sky and landed right at the foot of the tower. When he looked up, he saw that the snow on the top of the mountain had rushed down like a sea of mountains, and everything he went was razed to the ground.
"Oops! It's an avalanche. The tower secretly complained, hurriedly threw the hairball on his back, carried the backpack in his left hand, carried the spar on his shoulder, and ran towards the flying saucer as fast as he could.
Furball nervously shouted, "Do I have any food for the winter?" ”
Others want money and don't want to die, he wants to eat and don't die, this emergency moment is still thinking about that bit of food, the tower is really angry and funny, but he also knows the importance of these two bags of things to the hairball, comforting: "Don't worry, I'll take it!" ”
The raging snow was like a monster with teeth and claws, swallowing up all the obstacles that stood in its way, and when it saw the tower running at high speed in front of it, its temper became even more manic, and it shouted all the way to chase after it, and several times it was about to swallow this bastard who dared to provoke itself into its belly, but it was just a little bit worse.
The tower ran faster and faster, finally leaving its pursuers far behind.
"There's no way to catch up." The monster let out a long sigh and stopped in despair, and the earth was calm again.
Although it was cold, the hairball was in a cold sweat, and the scene just now was too thrilling. "Seon lost his horse, but he knew the blessing and the curse, this sentence really makes sense. Fortunately, the house collapsed just now, so he would have retreated in time, otherwise he would have been buried alive. He patted his throbbing chest, still scared.
"What do you think of this place?" The tower stopped at the foot of the mountain.
Maoqiu looks here and there, opens his eyes and observes carefully, building a house is the top priority in life, and there must not be the slightest sloppiness.
Tie Ta didn't dare to urge him, this guy was born a chronic man, and he knew it.
Five large trees are lined up, and each one requires four adults to hold hands. There is also a mountain stream next to it, and although it is now covered with snow and ice, it must be a babbling stream at the beginning of spring.
"Here it is! There are mountains, rivers and trees, it is indeed a good place, and the one in the middle is my favorite. "The furball thought about it again and again, and finally settled down.
"Have you decided?" Tie Ta was afraid that he would suddenly change his mind halfway through, so it was better to ask first.
"It's decided, please don't stop mother-in-law." Furball grumbled.
"Then I'll do it." Tie Ta was really mad by him, obviously he was not in a hurry, but in turn he complained about my mother-in-law and mother-in-law, is there any heavenly reason? He shook his head helplessly, took off a piece of bark at a height of two meters, and stabbed it a few times with an iron horn, and soon pulled out a hole, the technique was very skillful, and it did not hurt the meridians of the tree at all, for a medical master like him, this was just a small operation, and it would definitely not endanger the health of the tree.
Keep the bark at the entrance of the cave and to hell with the blizzard outside! The room gradually became warmer, and the hairball looked at his new home, the one-bedroom living room was very spacious, not only could you store a lot of food, but also set a small bed! He nodded with satisfaction, thinking in his heart: "After the beginning of spring next year, I will open a small store here, and then the days will be more prosperous." ”
Tie Ta hurried back to the flying saucer, and couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw Xiao Jin: "Dude, why are you sweating profusely?" ”
"You're embarrassed to say it." Xiao Jin glared at him, "You came back with a pinch, as long as we have another minute, we won't be able to leave, please hurry up a little next time, okay?" My little heart can't stand the toss. ”
"I remember, I'll pay attention next time." Tie Ta smiled bitterly and said in his heart: "Maoqiu, you have made my brother and me miserable." ”
"With your ability, it shouldn't take so long, are you meddling again?" Xiao Jin asked while controlling the flying saucer, although the two have not known each other for a long time, he understands the character of Tie Tower, he is brave, chivalrous, and full of love, he is a good person! There aren't many people like that these days.
"I really said it, when I came back, I met a homeless street child, so I helped him by the way."
"I see, no wonder you have an extra halo on your head."
"Really? Why didn't I find out? "Looking up and down the tower, it doesn't seem to have any aura!
Xiao Jin sneered, "I'm kidding you, fool!" ”
Actually teasing me? The tower is very depressed, can we still be friends happily!
