I don't know why, whenever we sit down to rest, the apprentice always has to lie in my arms or pillowed my laps. This makes me think that she has lost her relatives and treats me as her relative, and I will give her full family affection.

However, her eyes were fixed on mine, and she did not blink. I had to look away from me by pretending to see if anyone was sneaking around.

"No one came," she said. ”

I said, "How do you know?" ”

"If anyone comes," she said, "the birds in the woods will tell us." ”

I said, "You know the language of birds?" ”

"When birds see people or other wild animals walking in the forest, they make a different call," she says. Usually all we hear is the laughter of birds. ”

I said, "I don't think you know the language of birds." ”

But she said, "Hold me." ”

I hugged her tight.

The days of running made us close our eyes quickly in this quiet jungle.

I don't know how long I slept, but she suddenly jumped up in my arms and shook me vigorously.

I stared at her and said, "What's wrong?" ”

She whispered, "Someone's coming." ”

I jumped to my feet and picked up the gun beside me. At this moment I heard the sound of rustling among the thorns in front of me. I immediately climbed up the big tree behind me with her, hid in the thick foliage, and watched vigilantly under the tree.

At this time, there was the sound of footsteps stepping on fallen leaves and dead branches from behind, and it sounded like two people.

I whispered in her ear, "They found out we're here and outflanked us." ”

"Luckily, we found out early," she said. ”

I said, "You saved me." ”

"We're even," she said. ”

I said, "You still owe me a Master." ”

She slammed her body against my chest and said, "Don't even think about it. ”

I said, "Be careful, don't make a sound." ”

We just held our breath.

At this time, the sound of rustling in front of me suddenly stopped under a bush of thorns. We looked over, but we didn't see a single figure.

But the footsteps behind us were still ringing, still walking towards us. The closer we get, the softer the footsteps become, as if they are quietly touching us, suddenly giving us a hard blow. But it still made the sound of the fallen leaves and dead branches they were stepping on.

We looked at it together, and at last we were relieved and could breathe freely—not that we didn't see anything, but what we saw was a white-fronted tiger with hanging eyes.

No matter how powerful the tiger is, we are in the trees, and there are guns.

The tiger didn't seem to notice us hiding in the trees, and continued to walk softly and quietly. It didn't stop until it was in front of the thorn where the rustling sound stopped.

It stared at the thorn for a moment, and then looked away, presumably seeing nothing.

At this moment, a pillar-sized python suddenly appeared in the thorns, and the man immediately attacked the tiger.

The tiger is truly the king of the forest, and its reaction speed is indeed incomparable to that of other animals. I saw it soar into the air and jump more than three meters high.

The python doesn't seem to be stupid, and it can't stand lower than three meters, but as soon as its body touches the tiger, it immediately entangles itself. In just a few moments, he wrapped three circles around the tiger's body.

My apprentice and I gasped, and we broke out in a cold sweat and almost fell off the tree. If these two animals suddenly attack us, we will not have time to raise our guns and shoot.

The python that wrapped around the tiger slammed the tiger to the ground at this time, and kept tightening and rolling.

The tiger, known as the king of the jungle, will certainly not become the python's meal. I saw that it first slapped the python on the head, and then used its mouth and claws together, struggling desperately.

This girl, who is not even afraid of death, has almost stopped breathing at this time. She leaned against me, her hands clutching my arms, nails that seemed to be about to dig into my flesh.

If she hadn't caused me pain, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to breathe at this point. The pain brought me consciousness and made me try to hold her so that she would not fall off the tree.

The python that was slapped did not let go of the tiger, and was still trying to shrink. Even those of us in the trees heard the rattling of tiger bones.

The tiger let out a roar of rage, trying to puff out its belly and kicking its feet as fast as it could.

I don't know how long later, the tiger's feet suddenly grabbed the python's body, kicked hard, and let out an earth-shattering roar at the same time.

Then, it broke free from the python's entanglement.

A vertical step, jumping out of the three feet away. And quickly escaped five feet away, only to stand and look back at the python in shock, and quickly disappeared into the jungle.

The python looked at the tiger that was leaving, and knew that he couldn't catch up, so he turned around and left. Before it could turn its whole body, it looked back at the tree where we were hiding for a while, and then went into the distance.

Presumably it found us hiding in the trees.

Presumably it came here to sneak up on us.

I don't know if this tiger has also smelled us.

We were so shocked that our hearts almost jumped out of our chests, if it weren't for this tiger, we were afraid that we would have become the bread of this python. People stand three meters, what a terrible python!

Quietly lurking there, we will naturally come down from the tree, it will suddenly attack us, where do we flee?

Although we watched a fight, the two of us seemed to come from the ghost gate.

I don't know how long it took for us to catch our breath.

I said, "This is a python, I've never seen it before." ”

She said: "Although there are many pythons in this jungle, this is the first time I have seen such a big one. ”

I said, "In the future, we should be careful when we walk in the jungle." ”

Although both animals left, we did not come down from the trees. It's just because at this moment, we are like people who are seriously ill, and we don't have any strength in our bodies.

When we have strength, we can't come down again. Just because we heard footsteps – this time not animals, but people – not one or two people, but many people.

It was the sound of footsteps that gave us the strength and spirit all of a sudden.

They ran towards us.

In a few moments, we saw them. It looks like they are a guerrilla force.

They shot in the back as they retreated.

Presumably they had a pursuer behind them.
