Chapter 2: Monsters
The sky was still very deep, and there was no light, only a little cold and gloomy, just like the belly of a giant beast, revealing an extraordinarily cold atmosphere in this mountain. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info suddenly the eastern sky shook, faintly a fiery red silk spouted out, as if something was unwilling to be this gloomy and bleak, struggling to rise out, so in great anticipation, finally jumped out, a round of fiery red disc swayed upward, to this dark and cold world with a trace of golden light.
The day finally dawned, as if I had been struggling for a long time and waiting for a long time.
The miasma in the mountains slowly dissipated, and the grass and trees were also slightly stretching their bodies that had been stiffened all night, and then the trembling branches and leaves of the spirit stretched towards the dreamlike golden light, and the beasts roared and the birds chirped, so the mountains suddenly became much more vibrant.
"Babble, another one!"
Ah Nian skillfully pierced one end of the short stick into the soil, and pried it up, so a fungus was uprooted, and there was a slightly damp soil slag, only to see that this fungus spectrum was bright in color, delicate, and the color was quite good, which was the best. Ah Nian carefully put it into the back basket behind him, and his face couldn't help but show a hint of joy, and then he raised his head and shouted to a few companions next to him:
"Looks like today's harvest should be good!"
The three men also found one, quickly took it off and put it in the bamboo basket, wiped the dew stained on his head, and said indifferently: "It should be not bad, the sky has just brightened, why have we already picked half a basket, but I haven't met any rabbits and pheasants, third brother, I haven't eaten meat for a few days." ”
Dabao and Gouwa next to him showed disdain, and only Dabao said: "Third brother, you are content, the mushroom we picked today is enough for us to eat for three days, how can we not be satisfied!"
The dog baby also said: "That's it, that's it... It turned out that he wanted to say something, but his stutter was tight, and he didn't speak very neatly, so he only suffocated the two cheeks red, and he was angry, so he simply stopped talking.
The third boy looked at the four younger brothers, looked up to the sky and sighed, and said with hatred that iron is not steel: "Why are you boys so easily satisfied, you are satisfied if you have a spectrum to eat? Don't want to eat meat? You must know that the water flows to a low place, people go to a high place, there are so many things in the world, you can't learn more, see more, and eat more by the way......"
Ah Nian interrupted the words of the third man and said: "Third brother, don't bluff us with the words of the bad old man Gao, we have all heard it, the old man Gao also said that there is no wonder in the flower world outside, if people go out, they will not come back, but the village chief and his old man said again......" Speaking of this, Ah Nian deliberately stopped, cleared his throat, and said in a very immature voice in the tone of the village chief:" You little boys don't want to be deceived by the old man Gao, this guy left the village in the early years, and I don't know where to wander for more than ten years, I saw some strange things, and I saw that you little fart children are so foolish, so I tinkered with strange rhetoric all day long, and I want to say that this guy has offended some big man nine times out of ten and was brought back...... Ah Nian, don't be deceived by him, don't run out, try to worry about your mother, how can people outside have our hermitage, you must know that people's hearts are sinister......"
This imitation, only learned vividly, extremely vivid, only amused the other four people to roll forward and backwards, laughing, if it weren't for Ah Nian is too young, the voice is not as thick as an adult, I am afraid that it can be fake.
The five children laughed for a while, looked at each other, and slowly fell silent.
At this time, the sun was already rising a little high, and the originally gloomy mountains and forests were gradually brightening.
After a long time, Ah Nian said, "I won't leave my mother!" At a young age, his face was unusually firm at this time.
The three men were stunned, then smiled and said, "We know." ”
The dog baby and Xiaobao came over and patted Ah Nian's arm, so the group of five children packed up their baskets and climbed higher up the hill.

In the depths of the mountain forest, the trees are luxuriant, and the production is more abundant, not only can you pick the fungus spectrum that only grows in the morning and withers in the afternoon, but also can cut down the wood and firewood that can be burned for a long time, and it is very popular, and you can often hunt some rabbits, roe deer, foothills, wild boars and other beasts, the fur can be sold as money and grain, and the meat can be dried and stored for emergencies.
At this time, in a jungle section located on the mountainside, a group of mountain people, there were no less than twenty people, all of them strong men, each dressed in natural camouflage such as grass, trees and branches, slowly shrinking towards the open space not far ahead, and a large and quite strong black-skinned wild boar was leading five cubs to nibble on fresh and juicy weeds, unaware of the imminent crisis.
The black-skinned boar suddenly looked up and looked around, frightened the mountain people who were shrinking the hunting range, but the black-skinned boar seemed to have instinctively sensed something wrong, but did not look carefully, his ears slapped several times, and he lowered his head and gnawed the grass roots with relish, ignoring the strange situation around him.
Chang Ping is a famous hunter in the village, every time he goes into the mountain to hunt and never returns empty-handed, and he is brave, brave and strategic, quite relied on in the village, and over time he became the leading hunter in the village, specializing in organizing and directing hunting. The day before yesterday, someone saw a wild boar in the depths of the mountain forest, and reported it to the village chief, who was responsible for organizing the hunt. As usual, before dawn, the hunting team went into the mountains to search for the target prey, and lived up to expectations, the hunting team really found this black-skinned wild boar in the depths of the mountain forest, and what is even more surprising is that there are five small cubs, looking at their size and size, it should be just born for a long time, if they can be caught, and then kept in captivity, pigs and pigs, will not they have meat to eat in the future?
However, Chang Ping felt that something was wrong, and there was always a feeling lingering in the dark, just afraid that something big would happen.
Hunting all year round, he has a keen sense of danger that other ordinary people do not have, but today he is evil, obviously there is only an adult black-skinned wild boar in front of him, if the danger is from this honest and stupid wild boar, I am afraid he himself is the first to not believe!
At this time, the hunting team has shrunk to the best position, if it continues to advance, it will inevitably be discovered by the black-skinned boar, so everyone carefully drew out the spear, draw the bow and arrow, but the eyes are looking at Chang Ping, just waiting for him to give an order, everyone is ten thousand arrows together, discipline the black-skinned boar in front of him to kill on the spot, but everyone is unbelievable to find that Chang Ping, who they rely on a lot, has dull eyes and a strange look.
Chang Ping thought hard for a long time, still didn't know the essentials, so he decided not to care about this inexplicable strange feeling, as soon as he turned around, he found that everyone was waiting for him to give orders, and suddenly his face was red, beckoned slightly, signaling that he was fine, and then made a gesture, so that everyone was cautious, you must know that this black-skinned boar has fangs, if it is the initiator, it is the tiger, leopard and jackal, these mountain kings, are also afraid of its three points.
A solemn and murderous atmosphere quietly dispersed, and when this momentum was condensed to the peak, even the wild boar also sensed a trace of crisis, and immediately screamed, pulled out his legs and fled, and the five little cubs behind him were also panicked, and followed their mother in a daze to rush deeper into the mountain, but the hunters were finally ready to go, and out of control, no matter what, they would not let this beast run!
A rain of arrows fell, and the black-skinned boar was already full of arrows, and blood was overflowing, but the panic in his eyes suppressed the pain on his body, and the black-skinned boar ran even more fiercely. So a group of hunters shouted one after another, the shouts moved the mountains, and dragged the spears in their hands, and chased after them vigorously, and when they reached a certain range, their arms shook and shook, and a rain of spears fell, so the huge body of the black-skinned boar full of arrows was filled with spears again, but at this time it was already the end of the crossbow, and the wild boar staggered a few times, and then fell down, shaking a burst of smoke and dust.
The five little boar cubs were all intact, and when the hunters were shooting arrows and spears, they had already planned in their hearts, so as not to accidentally injure their future carnivorous parents, but the five little wild boar cubs did not run away, and they all circled around their mothers, and then rubbed their mothers' bodies with their mouths, trying to wake up their mothers, but at this time their mothers could no longer respond. When the hunters saw that the five little wild boars were no longer running away, they stopped and stopped to arrange their hunting equipment, so the sound of a search for a cry sounded in the wilderness and forests.
Chang Ping walked in front of the female wild boar, sighed, frowned slightly, he is naturally not the kind of sentimental and ignorant person, people in the mountains and wilderness, it is not easy to survive, I don't kill him today, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not starve to death in the future, this world is the law of the jungle!
The so-called Heavenly Dao seems to be like this!
However, that strange sense of crisis became more and more intense, Chang Ping looked at these happy companions, and originally wanted to say something to make everyone be careful, but it seemed that something was wrong.
However, Chang Ping himself didn't know what was wrong, but he was afraid that few people would believe it when he said it, so he stopped talking.
The hunters raised this prey that had been waiting for a long time, and finally died and prepared to return to the village, this wild boar, the size was actually very large, more than twice as large as the ordinary wild boar, I believe it could support many days, and it was even more rare to catch five small wild boars that could be kept in captivity, and they could not work too hard in the future, so they were all elated, as if all the festive things in the year were not as good as today.
However, as soon as the team took a few steps, a terrible scream rang out, and everyone saw only a few black shadows flashing, and then two hunters were bitten off their throats and fell to the ground, and after only a few convulsions, they did not move, and the blood immediately stained the turf red, and the team was in chaos.
"Ahh
I saw five strange beasts slowly walking out of the forest, their heads like leopards, but they were huge, and they seemed to be bigger than the black-skinned wild boar they had just hunted, all of them had bright red and bloodthirsty eyes, extremely sharp claws, and carried bone spurs, their fangs were as long as half a foot, and their mouths were fishy, and they were drooling, as if they were eating people and demons!
These five strange beasts are unheard of and unseen!
Chang Ping was frightened in his heart, seeing that his companions around him were all afraid, his hands and feet trembled, and he actually had the tendency to give up resistance, knowing that it had reached a critical juncture, and if he didn't take action again, he was afraid that his group would die a clean death! So he shouted: "Don't be afraid! Think about your wife and children still waiting for you to go back! If you give up at this time, there is only a dead end!"
Survival in the mountains and wilderness is originally to face death anytime and anywhere, and to die, you are ready early, but you must not talk about life and death lightly if you think about the old and young in your family!
A shout awakened the blood of the hunters!
So the hunters set up a formation, bent the bow and arrows, the cowardice was no longer there, and there was a faint murderous aura around it, and then by Chang Ping's order, the arrows rained down, and the first one fell to the ground, and the remaining four heads were scattered when they saw the situation, only hiding behind the dark trees, the originally bloodthirsty eyes were more and more bright under the slightly dim shade, and the demonic eyes kept turning, as if they were thinking, as if there were rational remnants in the crazy and ferocious nature!
But this beast is wise!
Chang Ping waved his hand, pointed at a nearby beast and shouted, "Come again!"
I only heard the sound of "whooshing" endlessly, and in an instant, there was a rain of arrows, but this time it was completely useless.
It turned out that when the strange beast near the end saw that the arrow was pointing at him, it was already about to start, and when he was calm, the strange beast actually took advantage of the situation, and jumped to another big tree, and a burst of arrows were all nailed to the trunk, and the strange beast was not scarred at all.
Chang Ping was shocked in his heart, not to mention that these strange beasts are huge, unheard of, unseen, looking at their actions, it is not difficult to see that their nature is even more cunning, and the four strange beasts are separated from each other, each other is horns, it is clearly in the army, the formation used when the two armies are facing each other!
Those who cultivate immortals, the higher they cultivate, the more powerful they can cast powerful spells, turning their hands into clouds and covering their hands into rain, with one enemy and a thousand, it is not a problem. However, mortals in the world are not like cultivating the true world, if you want to win more with less, you need to rely on external objects, or the power of nature such as mountains and rivers, wind, thunder, rain and electricity, or earth, stones, logs, rockets, etc., to occupy a favorable position.
But I saw four strange beasts, in pairs and twos, relying on each other, looking at each other, looking at each other, and then using the trees in the forest to hide their bodies, ready to move, and they actually won the way of the formation!
"Are you going to die in the mouths of these beasts today?" Chang Ping's face became more and more worried, and he became more and more desperate, so he looked at his companions around him, and saw that these usually well-trained hunters were all trembling with hands and feet, and the bows and arrows in their hands were already unstable, and they looked at several pairs of blood-colored eyes in the depths of the forest in horror.
At this moment, the momentum of the strange beast has been completed, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached its peak, only to see two red rays flashing, a black shadow passing by, and several human heads rolled down, spurting blood pillars into the sky, and the sound of frightened and miserable screams suddenly shook the entire mountain forest.
