Chapter 60 Broken Intestine Cliff, Mountains and Forests
The catkins rose with the wind and traveled tens of thousands of miles.
In the blink of an eye, it has been more than three months.
The first abode of the strange people was located in a place called the Broken Intestine Cliff. The Broken Intestine Cliff is by no means a good place, and there is never half a figure on weekdays.
Because this is neither a scenic place, nor a decent mountain road, it is full of trap-like ravines and bumps.
At the same time, there are many fierce beasts in the mountains, and even the most sophisticated hunters will never dare to go up the mountain at night, because the night is the time when most of the beasts are active.
Maybe a person with the ability is always eccentric, or maybe only by living in such a place can he be truly isolated from the world, away from distractions, and he lives everywhere, everywhere in such a strange place.
After the cold and gloomy mountains, it was dusk, and the beasts in the mountains were about to move, and the roar of the beasts entered the ears from time to time. Fortunately, there was no blind guy who pounced on him and didn't stand in his way.
The dwelling on the cliff is a wooden house, the wooden house has been some years old, but it is still extremely stable, and it seems that it will not be a problem to hold on for another few decades.
The wooden house was built on the edge of the cliff, and if any beast or enemy came to attack it, it would be a dead end.
A person who can have such courage will never be an ordinary old man who is powerless.
It was already dark, and there was not a sound or light in the room. Leng Xiao still had a trace of hope in his heart, and the old man said that his teacher was a sleepy person.
If there is one thing in the world that makes his teacher more happy than curing the sick and saving people, it is sleeping. There were twelve hours a day, and he would not stop until he slept for six hours.
However, Leng Xiao could get in, and he didn't hear the sound of breathing. He still knocked on the door and asked, "Dare to ask, is anyone there?"
Unexpectedly, this knock on the door really heard a trace of movement from the house, and there was a short bumping sound.
There was a girl at the foot of the mountain, holding two mountain flavors in her hand, and suddenly looked up, and a star lantern was lit on the high cliff at the top of the mountain, which appeared and disappeared from time to time.
She suddenly felt a little excited in her heart, and muttered, "Could it be that Mr. Qi is back......?"
However, when she wanted to be excited, her face turned pale in an instant, and her feet were firmly rooted on the ground, and she couldn't enter or retreat.
But it didn't take long for the girl to resolutely throw the mountain flavor in her hand on the ground, put down the bow and arrow on her back, and clenched the short knife in her hand.
The night was too dark for her to see, and she could only rely on her usual familiarity with the mountains and forests to walk, in which case the bow and arrow were of no use.
The girl walked like the wind, her steps were light, and she walked over the blades of grass like an insect jumping on the leaves, and her voice was so soft that even the most alert beast might not notice it.
However, in addition to the ears, the beast relied on the sense of smell the most, she walked in a hurry, she did not carry any medicine to drive the head, and she could not see clearly when she picked it directly, and her whereabouts were finally exposed.
The girl's heart was cold, it can also be said that she had already prepared for this, she was a hunter, she would never pin her hopes on luck, all the success or failure of life and death were inevitable.
There was a wisp of fishy wind in the object, and it wasn't until she got close that she saw that it was a hungry tiger. In this mountain, there are the most wolves, and I have seen a few leopards of different species, and there are many brown bears and hyenas next to them, but if you say that the last thing you want to meet must be a hungry tiger.
Because the speed of the hungry tiger is not as fast as that of a leopard, the strength is not as good as that of a brown bear, the ability is not as good as that of a wolf pack, and even the strength of a hyena is not as good as that of a hyena, the mix is not pleasant.
Now there are not necessarily a few hungry tigers in the mountains, but in the blink of an eye, she met one, which can be said to be a kind of luck, but it is the luck that no one wants to have.
She pounced without saying a word, whether it was speed or endurance, it was difficult for her to deal with a fierce beast, not to mention that in the mountains and forests in the middle of the night, her vision was blocked, and she couldn't see clearly under her feet, and blindly escaping would only make her die faster.
So she'd rather give it a go.
The knife cut a hole in the hungry tiger's cheek, and the hungry tiger dodged, but did not dodge, his heart was furious, the roar shook the sky, and the earth shook.
The girl's face turned pale, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly, but the short knife in her hand became tighter and tighter.
There is a village outside the mountain, and most of the village is made up of hunters, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains. At this time, twenty or thirty people walked out of the village in a crowd, torches in their hands.
One of them saw the bow at the foot of the mountain, and immediately said urgently: "This is Cong'er's thing, this is Cong'er's thing!"
A fat and sturdy man said: "Cong'er This girl shouldn't go up the mountain, just now I heard the roar of the beast repeatedly, I don't know which beast is doing the demon!"
Cong'er's father shook his head and said: "No, Cong'er has been with me for three years, and she knows the tricks on the mountain, where can she be so unmeasured!"
A capable man said: "Ke Cong'er's bow and mountain flavor are all placed outside, I am afraid that she is dying and sees the interest again, so she chased out, and chased deep at once." ”
Someone chimed in: "Cong'er and her mother are seriously ill, and it is difficult to guarantee that Cong'er will not do anything impulsive, this girl, what is she really saying!"
Cong'er's father covered his face, lost his square inch for a while, and said continuously: "No, no, this child is the most sensible......"
A big man rubbed his shoulder and said, "Brother Zhang, don't panic first, we have watched this child grow up, he is clever, and it is not so easy to have an accident." A few days ago, there was a light rain, and the land was soft, and we followed the footprints to find it, but we may not be able to find it. ”
"But this ......"
"Don't do this, that, we are in a small team of four or five people, holding torches in front and back, on guard on the left and right, and don't leave too far between the teams. ”
The group immediately burrowed into the mountain forest, broke through a trace of darkness, and hurried away.
The girl was knocked down by a whip from a hungry tiger, and tumbled down the steep slope, snorting, struggling with difficulty, but she could no longer stand up.
At the last moment, her pupils contracted and her body chilled, but she saw the hungry tiger's body pounce on her body with a muffled sound and crashed straight into a tree.
It fell from the tree, but did not dare to go up again, and ran away with a whimper, and staggered in its footsteps.
I didn't know what was going on. In the darkness came a person, like two people, and the two were very close.
A man's voice came from her ear: "I don't plan to send you down the mountain, and I don't think you have the ability to go down the mountain alone, so you can rest in the wooden house on the cliff tonight, and then leave at dawn." ”
Cong'er said stupidly: "But my father and my mother will be worried, and the elders in the village will also be worried. ”
Leng Xiao said lightly: "This is not a problem you should consider, you should be glad that you survived, and the rest of your life will be in vain." ”
His attitude was cold and hard, but he was not annoyed, but laughed a little reminiscingly: "It turns out that the benefactor in that wooden house is a benefactor, and the benefactor and Mr. Qi seem to be unforgiving, but they are both excellent, otherwise the benefactor would not have saved me." ”
