In the northwest of the Kawakami Plateau, it is one of the few places on the plateau where you can see green, in fact, it is not a forest stream like other continents, lush vegetation, but a huge area of drought-resistant low shrubs.

Leopard Plain, here is the green lung of the plateau, but not many humans reproduce here, because this place is too high, so high that the life of ordinary mortals in this place has been affected, and it is difficult for mortals to engage in strong physical labor in this environment, otherwise it will be difficult to breathe and breathless.

The only people who can barely survive here are the oldest local Gaoshan Dong people, who do not work in agriculture and make a living by hunting and gathering.

They are short, black and thin, and have been exposed to the wind and sun for many years, and even the faces of young people are covered with marks like knives and axes, and it is difficult for outsiders to distinguish these natives from young and old, respectful and inferior, even male and female!

The overnight plateau wind blew, and dozens of low semi-buried caves in Guyuantun were covered with traces of wind and sand, Banan poked his head out of the mouth of the cave, and sure enough, as he expected, the strong wind overnight indicated that it should be a sunny and good weather today.

shouted a few words to the mother-in-law in the house, Banan was dressed in a leather jacket, carrying his bone bow longer than his body and a pickled deer leg out of the cave, the alpine Dong people are good at bows and arrows, which is also the basis for their survival here, don't look at this large shrub plateau is inaccessible, but it is a paradise for beasts, alpine antelope, camel cattle, rock deer, etc., are the food they rely on for survival,

Of course, bows and arrows are not only used to hunt for food, but also to protect themselves from the fierce predators, and there are not many species of ferocious beasts here, but all of them are difficult to deal with, such as the bald falcon in the sky, the herd of jackals, the solitary leopard, and the rock python coiled in the hole and sticking out the tongue......

Banan moved his body, he was only thirty years old, but he looked as old as fifty, the people here generally do not live long, sixty is basically the end of their life, but the ancestors of the mountain Dong people who have survived here for thousands of years have never thought of leaving this land.

Took out a delicate copper flat pot from his waist, which is basically Banan's most valuable property, unscrewed the lid of the pot, poured a few sips of liquor into his mouth, and then reluctantly tightened it, and put it back into his waist, where the water source is scarce, every drop is precious, so the men of the Gaoshan Dong people never drink water, they only drink!

This is also a reason for their extreme poverty, a large number of beast skins, the precious herbs picked, basically directly exchanged for wine, which is also a must for them to fight against the cold of the plateau, wind and sand, the Dong people in the high mountains, I don't know what is drunk!

Raising the deer's leg and biting, this is his breakfast, there are no vegetables on the plateau, the only green supplement is those edible wild berries on the way to hunting, of course, this is also the ability that only Gaoshan Dong has, for outsiders, hundreds of berries and wild roots, can poison you a hundred times!

After biting a few bites of meat, Banan didn't take out the flat pot to moisten his throat as usual, he felt that something was wrong, what was it?

Yes, I didn't hear the dog barking!

Gaoshan Dong people's dogs, is a special breed of mastiff in the leopard plain, sensitive sense of smell, fierce and fierce, loyal to the owner, can fight against two or three jackals alone, without it, the survival ability of the Gaoshan Dong people in the leopard plain will be taken off half, how to find and hunt those cunning beasts?

Banan has three mastiffs, usually at this time when he gnaws the whole deer leg, the three mastiffs will definitely rush out of the nest, around him to please, waiting for him to eat a few bites and use this deer leg as food for the three mastiffs, but today, the mastiff's nest is quiet, without a sound.

Three steps and two steps, Banan rushed to the mastiff house, looked inside, almost fainted, the three giant mastiffs were lying quietly in the mastiff house, there was still fear in their eyes, the blood stains on their necks were obvious, and they had been dead for a long time.

Banan screamed sadly, he couldn't help himself, as soon as these three mastiffs left, not to mention the wine, even the most basic hunting of the family became a problem, how can this be good?

It was not the Banan family who was bitten to death by the mastiff in the family, but his neighbors, there were three or four mastiffs who were all killed, and the death was exactly the same, they were all bitten in the neck, and they were sucked to death, and the whole process was neither bitten nor the mastiff next to him did not make any sound.

The elders of the Dong branch of the Gaoshan Dong people in Guyuantun were also alarmed, and after carefully looking at the situation of several kennels, they communicated briefly with the best hunters in Guyuantun who came over, and saw that almost all the clansmen in the tun, two or three hundred people had gathered, and the elder took a wooden cane and said in a loud voice:

"Last night's disaster, should be done by the leopard, and it is a leopard that has become a spirit, we mortals are unstoppable! This matter is customary, Tunzhong should send someone to report to the Huangshi Temple under the plateau, and it is right to ask for the help of the monks; during this period, before the monks find out the reason, all families should guard the door, prohibit going out to hunt, Tunzhong will organize hunting teams, guard the Tunzi day and night, and hope that you will abide by the rules, we have lost our lives, and we have missed the big things of the monks, but we can't afford to bear the sin, and the whole Tun will suffer!"

There is a leopard in the leopard plain, this is since ancient times, the leopard has always been alone, it is the king of the leopard plain, which has become the essence is even rarer, and it may not be two or three heads in a hundred years, and it is not a mountain Dong people can deal with it.

However, the Huangshi Temple under the mountain is particularly interested in the leopard, especially the leopard that has become the essence, more than 100 years ago, another Tunzi found that there is a fine leopard, after the Huangshi Temple was captured by the monks, the whole Tunzi was given a year's spirits, in this sense, although several mastiffs died, but for the Guyuan Tun, it is an out-and-out good news.

Isn't it just that a few mastiffs died, isn't it just that they can't hunt for a period of time, the mastiff people help them together, and it is impossible to make Banan and others lose their livelihood, as for the safari, there are still a lot of prey in the tun, enough to support February and March, and compared with the temple rewards that Quantun may get, this is nothing.

In the cheers of the clansmen, the three bravest and strongest hunters were singled out, and the elder's letter was immediately rushed to the leopard plain, where there was no road, let alone galloping, only with their legs, and beware of possible beast attacks, it would take at least ten days to reach the Huangshi Temple, but the monks would come much faster, in a way that the Gaoshan Dong people could not understand at all.

The Dong people in the high mountains of Guyuan Tun are enthusiastic, build a fence around the tunzi, erect an earthen wall, and assign manpower to take care of it day and night; the leopard does not eat meat but only sucks blood, so before the monk arrives, everyone still needs to protect the safety of the tunzi, and is really targeted by this monster, and the monk did not come, everyone first became a dry corpse.
