Chapter 27: Body Language
In the world, the most difficult thing to go is to turn back.
Even if the person is still waiting for you, most people will never find their way behind them.
Sima Bei, who ran a hundred meters later, was like this, and when he turned around, he saw endless white mist, and it was difficult to find the way he came.
Turning back again, Sima Bei hit a big tree with his head crooked, and immediately fell on all fours, staggering back up, his mind was dizzy, and he couldn't distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.
The little orange outside the white fog heard the muffled sound of Sima Bei falling to the ground, and shouted loudly, "What's wrong?" ”
Sima Bei shook his head and replied with an embarrassed face, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I knocked down a tree, I've already lifted it up, although it is very old, it didn't lie to me, it's a reasonable ......."
"Then you follow my voice and retreat first, let's act more safely together!" The little orange breathed a sigh of relief, stretched his neck to look at the white fog, and raised his voice a little more and shouted two words.
Sima Bei shook his head and said, "Forget it, since the will of heaven is like this, you don't have to follow me on any more adventures, it's better to stay with the Taoist priest and priest, and I will be back soon...... Needless to say, saving people is like fighting a fire, I'll go over there first......"
When the little orange heard this, he was furious, hung on the branch, kept kicking his little feet, pouted and said, "I think you are deliberate, you just think I am a burden, and you deliberately hang me on this tree, so that you can save the beauty alone and hold the beauty!" ”
Sima Bei pursed his lips, pretending not to hear Xiao Tangerine's words, no longer staying, and walked quickly to the source of the woman's scream.
However, because the woman's cry for help was too ethereal and intermittent, Sima Bei was never able to identify the direction, and after walking for a long time, he still felt that he was still far away from the goal.
Sima Bei stopped panting, thought for a moment, picked up a wooden stick shaped like a baseball bat on the ground, pulled some dead grass and wrapped it into a simple torch, took out a lighter, quickly lit the torch, and kept leaving marks on the passing trees while holding the torch high to dispel the forest fog.
I don't know how long it took, but just as the torch was about to be extinguished, the forest fog finally gradually thinned, and the woman's cry for help became clearer and clearer.
Sima Bei's face was overjoyed, and he trotted up with a torch with a faint light, tensing his muscles, alert to possible sudden dangers around him.
Dozens of steps away from Sima Bei, Haiyan sat on the ground with a pale face, struggling to break the trap on his right leg, but he couldn't break free, so he could only cry out weakly, looking forward to the sudden appearance of Long You, who had made an appointment to see the stars.
But there was no response from the silent forest, only the dark clouds in the sky slowly gathered in this shout.
The wind began to roar, and the petrel's cries became weaker and more inaudible.
The birds in the woods shrunk their necks and hid timidly.
The reptiles on the ground also hurriedly burrowed into the soil, not daring to poke their heads out.
The clouds grew darker and lower, pressing down on the forest.
The explosion roared, and several electric snakes lit up in the darkness.
By the flash of thunder and lightning, the petrel could see some of the birds and animals that inhabited the forest.
I also saw the two eyes that were hiding in the grass not far away, shining with cold light.
Suddenly, Haiyan's face became even more pale, cold sweat oozed from her forehead, and she was very frightened in her heart, but she didn't dare to make another call, and she covered her mouth with her blood-stained hands, trembling all over.
The grass began to rattle, and the two eyes suddenly stood up, revealing a blood-soaked red coat and a strange face that was extremely hideous.
The mouth of that strange face was densely stitched together with needles and threads, the ears on both sides of the cheeks were nowhere to be found, the nostrils were also eroded, and only the two eyes were no different from ordinary people, but there was no trace of human emotion in the eyes, and there was a cold light that only wild beasts have.
The red-clothed strange man stepped out of the grass in one step, stared straight at Haiyan's gurgling and bleeding right leg, suddenly stretched out his hands with nails like spikes, tore open the stitches on his mouth, opened his bloody mouth, and roared at Haiyan violently, "Woo! ”
Haiyan couldn't help but scream, her body spasmed, and she tried to move her ass back.
Another low roar came from somewhere in the grass behind Haiyan.
Another strange man dressed in red jumped out of the grass with his head scattered.
Streaming down.
The small whispering of the grass did not stop, and in a moment more eyes lit up in the grass around them.
All eyes looked coldly at the petrel, like a pack of wild beasts looking at their prey that had fallen into a trap.
The air became incredibly viscous at this moment, making it difficult to breathe.
Maybe it was the dark clouds that were pressed too low, or maybe the wound on her right leg was bleeding too much, Haiyan only felt that the black in front of her was getting thicker and thicker, and she couldn't see the eyes around her clearly.
Or perhaps the red-clothed monster who was the first to step out of the grass suddenly jumped up and pounced, obscuring the thunder in the sky.
Haiyan sat trembling and staring helplessly at the dark forest.
Suddenly, a glimmer of light escaped from the darkness.
Sima Bei, who was holding the torch, sighed lightly, jumped up, flew up with his right foot, kicked the red-clothed strange man who pounced on Haiyan in the face, flipped twice in the air, danced the torch in his hand a few times, and landed steadily in front of Haiyan, breathing a sigh of relief, "Finally arrived in time!" ”
Haiyan stared at Sima Bei's tall back in the cold night, inexplicably felt a lot more relieved, and couldn't help but flash another back in her mind, which was also very tall and made people feel very secure.
Sima Bei glanced at the trap on Haiyan's right leg, frowned slightly, and said, "It seems that you have to fight quickly......" glanced at the red-clothed people around, his eyes were half-narrowed, "No ears?" Can you hear the voice? ”
The red-clothed people around didn't answer, just looked at Sima Bei and Haiyan quietly, as if they were a group of walking corpses without brains, without the slightest expression on their faces.
The strange man who was kicked away by Sima Bei rolled over and roared angrily at Sima Bei, saliva mixed with blood running down his chin and dripping to the ground.
"Can you hear me? What do you mean? I don't know the dialect here, can I speak Mandarin......" Sima Bei looked at the red-clothed strange man in surprise and scratched his head for some reason.
The red-clothed strange man seemed to be insulted, and the madness in his eyes was even worse, and he opened his mouth wide and roared again.
"You don't know Mandarin? This is a bit troublesome......" Sima Bei pursed his mouth, turned his head to look at Haiyan, blinked and said, "Girl, you should be a local, do you know these things?" Can you help me translate what it just said? ”
Haiyan was stunned for a moment, bit her lip, and said timidly, "I don't know them, and I can't communicate with them, otherwise I wouldn't be surrounded by them......"
"It seems to be the same reason, then you can only communicate with body language...... Sima Bei smashed his mouth, sighed lightly, squatted down, pressed his hands on the trap, pulled it suddenly, stretched it open, removed Haiyan's right leg, threw the trap aside, helped Haiyan up and humped it on his back, held the torch with his right hand and waved it a few times, and said coldly, "Now I want to take this girl away, whoever dares to come up and stop it, whoever has to be ready to lie down!" Do you understand? ”
The red-clothed strange man clenched his hands into claws, stared at Sima Bei with wide eyes, and squeezed out a word from his throat, "Ho! ”
The rest of the red-clothed men immediately raised their claws, took a step forward, and tightened the encirclement.
Sima Bei frowned, plucked out his ears, and said with a fierce face, "Didn't you eat?" Can you be louder...... I ask again, do you understand? ”
The red-clothed strange man raised his head to the sky and roared at the thunderous dark clouds, and then suddenly rushed towards Sima Bei, moving forward with his hands and feet, like a vicious beast, his eyes burning with anger that tore apart Sima Bei and Haiyan.
At the same time, the red-clothed people around also moved, and they all rushed towards Sima Bei and Haiyan in the center, showing their teeth and claws, and in the lightning and thunder, they looked particularly terrifying.
Sima Bei shook his head and sighed, "I just thought you weren't human, but I didn't want to be even a beast...... tilted his head, and said softly to Haiyan, "Hold tight, I'll be irritable next, and the movements will be very intense, if you feel uncomfortable, just tell me, I'll try to restrain ......"
Haiyan only felt that this was a little strange, and vaguely remembered that when she and Starfish attended the village fur dog wedding the year before last, she had heard similar words lying outside the marriage room, and her cheeks flushed, and she said in a voice like a mosquito...... I can bear it. ”
But at this moment, the red-clothed strange man just jumped in front of Sima Bei, reached forward with his right paw, and quickly grabbed Sima Bei's front door!
The smile on Sima Bei's face disappeared suddenly, he snorted coldly, twisted his left foot, turned sideways, and dodged the right claw of the red-clothed stranger, clenched his fist with his left hand, and came out with his cross arm, and by the inertia of turning, he smashed squarely on the chest of the red-clothed stranger, and then didn't look at the red-clothed stranger, and quickly flashed to the left, avoiding the few red-clothed people who rushed over first.
The red-clothed strange man took a punch from Sima Bei, spurting out a mouthful of blood, and took a few steps back, but as if he didn't feel pain, he ran over again.
After avoiding the several red-clothed people who pounced on the right, he raised his legs and jumped in the air, just stepping on the red-clothed people who pounced from the right side, and kicked hard, dodging the dozen red-clothed people who rushed from the left, jumped out of the encirclement, and faced the red-clothed stranger who attacked again, with various mechanical calculation formulas flashing in his eyes.
The red-clothed strange man saw that Sima Bei actually took the initiative to rush towards him, and the expression on his face became more and more hideous, and in the process of running, he actually tore his mouth a little bigger with his sharp nails, revealing two rows of blood-red fangs!
Ten meters, eight meters, six meters...... Three meters!
The distance between Sima Bei and the red-clothed monster kept shrinking, and both could even clearly see the expressions on each other's faces.
Haiyan, who was tightly hugging Sima Bei's neck, saw that the two were about to collide together, biting her lip and closing her eyes, forcibly suppressing the urge to scream.
"Whew!" The red-clad weirdo is roaring!
"Humph!" Sima Bei was sneering!
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two is only one step away!
