Chapter 7: Danger abounds
The brothers decided to spend the night in the ancient tree and continue their treasure hunt after dawn.
However, "where misfortune and blessing depend, blessing and misfortune lurk".
Their treasure hunt is both unexpected and dangerous, and it can be described as painful and happy!
......
The early morning sun, looking through the gap in the deep forest, is red and big!
After a night of pranayama and exhalation, Hua Feng and Meng Qi felt the hot air flowing between the muscles and bones of their whole body, and they were warm and indescribably comfortable.
Taking a few deep breaths of the fresh and sweet air in the forest in the morning, the two of them used their strength and feet to exercise for half an hour.
But listening to the crackling sound, startled the birds.
After eating some wild fruit springs, the two began to hunt for treasures again.
Because the giant crocodile has thick skin and flesh, and they are in the midst of a rampage after losing the dragon fruit, the two of them who are watery decided not to provoke this fierce beast for the time being, but to march to the top of the mountain.
After walking for a day, I captured a silver fox and picked some herbs.
These herbs are rarely sold for hundreds of years, and the quality is very average.
The two of them who have no choice, it is better to pick up a breath together, and it is better to talk than nothing!
Towards dusk, the brothers saw a tall old tree with a canopy as large as a hill in front of them, and they prepared to rest on the old tree for the night.
After all, being in a dense forest, the danger at night is much higher than during the day.
Because many beasts of prey rest during the day and forage for food at night.
......
Meng Qi jumped up the tree, and after a few flights, he had reached the waist of the ancient tree as big as a canopy.
Just as he was about to beckon Hua Feng to come up, there was a sudden "buzz" loud sound, as if a pot had exploded, and a group of wasps the size of adult thumbs came down from the dense branches and leaves at the top of the tree, covering the sky and making people creepy!
It's also that the two of them are inexperienced, and they have repeatedly forgotten even the most basic stone-throwing directions.
A good Meng Qi, in danger, hurriedly fell a thousand pounds and fell straight down the tree.
When he was close to the ground, he struck the ground with a palm, slowing down the fall, kicking his feet out of thin air, and standing firm in a somersault.
He shouted urgently: "Brother Hua, let's go, I've touched a hornet's nest!"
The two of them immediately rushed to the dense woods on the mountain, trying to slow down the rapid pursuit of the wasps with the help of the dense trees and tall grass.
......
As everyone knows, the wasp they provoked is called "Seven Mile Bee".
There are two theories about this kind of wasp.
First, for all creatures that dare to invade its territory, it must at least sting out of the land of seven miles before it will stop.
The second is that after the creature is stung by it, it will be poisoned and killed if it can't escape from the land of seven miles.
Whichever statement is correct, "Seven Mile Bee" is an extremely terrifying and unprovoked existence!
Although the sun has not yet set on the other side of the mountain, the forest is dark, and ordinary people's eyes are already like night.
Although the light work of the two is good, although the internal force is high, there are many shelters in the forest, and the speed is far less than the "Qili Peak" that moves when they hear the wind.
Within three miles, both of them had been stung several times on the back of their heads.
The feeling of pain and itching made the two even more panicked!
......
"The house leak happened to rain overnight".
In a hurry, the brothers broke into the territory of a large brown bear.
provoked the big brown bear to angrily use his big palms to slap his broad chest.
While roaring angrily, he strode towards the two of them.
The big brown bear has long fur and thick skin, and is unaware of the indiscriminate sting of the "Seven Mile Bee", and is bent on chasing the two daring intruders.
......
"The ship leaked and encountered the wind".
Before the two of them knew it, they ran to a cliff!
There is no way to retreat, and there are "chasing soldiers" behind.
All of a sudden, he was in a desperate situation!
When I looked at it, I saw that the cliff was steep and abnormal, and there were few trees, but fortunately, there were more vines between the cliffs.
The valley below the cliff is covered with thick fog and is bottomless.
At this time, the two of them had been stung countless times, and their whole bodies were like toads, bulging large and small blisters, and the pain was very painful and itchy.
The two of them also had the idea of fighting, but even if they could fight the brown bear, they couldn't fight the dense bumblebees.
Escape is the only way out for the two!
But the road is broken, where do we go from here?
The heavy footsteps of the big brown bear are getting closer and closer, and the "Seven Mile Bee" is winding and stinging more and more fiercely!
The brothers sighed gloomily: Could it be that the rivers and lakes "have not yet risen", and the two of us will die here in obscurity?
In despair, I am really unwilling.
......
Rise from the ashes!
The two glanced at each other, each aimed at a place with dense vines, and resolutely jumped down.
But when they heard the sound of "bang", the vines couldn't stand the weight of the two, and the roots broke, and the bodies of the two fell straight down!
The brothers were quick and quick-eyed, and with a little cliff under their feet, their bodies flew out diagonally, each grasping at another cluster of vines.
After doing this seven or eight times, it has fallen nearly 200 zhang, and finally reached the bottom.
At this time, the two of them were exhausted, and their whole bodies became numb and weak.
The ten fingers were already dripping with blood due to the frequent grabbing of the vines.
The bee venom has not been solved, and new wounds have been added!
The roar of the big brown bear has been quietly heard, but the stubborn "Seven Mile Bee" is persevering in chasing down, stung and bites.
Danger is still there!
......
Night had fallen completely, and the occasional chirping of insects would break the unsettling silence of the valley.
Holding back the exhaustion and pain, the brothers bit the tip of their tongues hard, and strengthened their minds, which were gradually anesthetized by the poisoning, and stumbled forward with difficulty while dodging the attack of poisonous bees in the bright moonlight.
Suddenly, an unpleasant fishy smell came from ahead.
Under the moonlight, I saw a huge lizard with a body of more than 15 zhang staggering towards it, and the long tongue in its mouth kept swallowing, making people's scalp cold!
The two of them hurriedly forced a breath of true qi, turned around and rushed out to the left.
Seeing the prey fleeing, the big lizard hissed and chased after him.
The "Seven Mile Bee" in the air is still persistently pursuing......
It's really "blessings are not double, disasters are not alone!"
The two of them have never experienced such a desperate situation!
No matter what kind of creature is in a desperate situation, it often stimulates infinite potential, adding strength and courage.
The so-called "rabbit bites" and "dog jumps over the wall" is exactly that!
At this critical moment, the two quickly surveyed their surroundings and exchanged a few words, then staggered towards the cliff on the left while quickly looking for a place to stay in the moonlight.
After a while, Hua Feng suddenly shouted in surprise: "Brother Meng, continue to walk to the left! There is a platform that can dodge the attack of this big reptile." Regardless of the wasps, in comparison, the big lizard is more poisonous and more aggressive!"
The two of them struggled towards their goal.
After dozens of breaths, he finally came to the platform exhausted.
The platform is about three feet high above the ground, and in normal times, the two of them can jump up.
But in the current state of bee venom attack and exhaustion, it is tantamount to climbing to the platform to reach the sky!
After a short discussion, it was decided that Hua Feng would try his best to deal with the big lizard and attract its attention. Meng Qi was in charge of cutting down a long tree trunk to make a staircase to climb the platform.
After agreeing, they endured the sting and body aches of the "Seven Mile Bee", and the two immediately went their separate ways.
