"Jasmine, you go first, I'll go rescue the fat man!"
I turned around and yelled at Jasmine, then held the bloody kitchen knife and rushed straight in the direction of Fatty Wu and the monster.
Although Fatty Wu was in trouble, he did not completely resign himself to his fate. While shouting for help, he opened his long bag, took out all the contents, and greeted the monster.
Such a throw was regarded as resistance for a while, causing the monster to shrink back one after another. However, after Fatty Wu threw nothing more, the monster once again opened its bloody mouth and bit it.
Fortunately, Fatty Wu bought me some time, and just when the monster attacked again, I appeared next to Fatty Wu.
"I, Cao Dongzi, are you a good friend enough to know how to come back and save me!"
"Stop talking nonsense and run away if you don't want to die!"
I pulled Fatty Wu up from the ground, raised my leg and kicked his butt hard, and then Fatty Wu started running.
At this time, the distance between me and the monster was only two or three meters. Such a close distance made me feel the breath of death brought by the bloody mouth. To put it bluntly, it was the strong stench of rotting corpses.
It was a mouth without half a tooth, so it was no wonder that it chose to swallow its prey in one bite.
As soon as Fatty Wu ran away, the monster paused, but when he found that there was another person in front of it, he didn't hesitate at all and swallowed me in one bite.
The monster's attack speed was very fast, but it was still far behind me. Faced with this attack, I dodged and let the monster gnaw at the mud, and I also took advantage of it. Taking this opportunity, he raised his hand and struck out with a knife.
I thought that this knife would cause some damage to it, but I never thought that the monster's head was harder than a rock, which directly caused the blade of the kitchen knife to collapse, which made my jaw numb.
It seemed that my flesh and blood body was definitely unable to compete with this heavily armored monster. I decisively discarded the scrapped kitchen knife and ran away.
I am very confident in my speed, and I shouldn't have much problem escaping from the monster's mouth.
In just a second or two, I rushed out more than ten meters, and already saw Fatty Wu and Jasmine in front of me, waving and shouting at me.
I thought they were cheering for me, celebrating my successful escape, but when I saw the horrified facial expressions of those two people clearly, my heart skipped a beat and almost stopped beating.
I ran and turned around suddenly. I saw the monster opened its mouth wide and spit something out. When I looked closely, I saw a complete yak skeleton, and the skeleton looked like Like it fell from the sky, it went straight to where I was and smashed down hard.
When I turned back, it was already too late. Before I could change my running direction, the yak's skeleton smashed me to the ground.
boom……!
There was a loud noise, and I was knocked to the ground directly. Pain like broken bones and muscles spread throughout my body, and my head felt as if I had been hit hard with a sap.
In a daze, I saw Fatty Wu and Jasmine rushing towards me. The two of them were pulling me while throwing scattered yak bones towards the monster.
Snapped……!
A burst of white light flashed, and I didn't know if there was something wrong with my eyes, but the next second I was successfully pulled out from under the yak's bones, and was carried on Fatty Wu's back, and we started walking all the way. bumpy.
During this period, I heard the shouts from Fatty Wu and Jasmine again, and then after a while of dodging, another complete yak skeleton fell to the ground, scattering like a goddess scattering flowers.
I don’t know how far I ran, but Fatty Wu finally put me down due to the overwhelming pressure, and then he collapsed on the ground, sweating profusely and breathing heavily, "I'm... finally safe..." …It’s safe!”
At this time, Jasmine was also very tired and dripping with sweat, and the clothes on her body were wet with sweat. However, she did not collapse directly like Fatty Wu, but immediately came to me to observe. My injuries.
"Xie Dongzi...how are you...do you need it?"
Jasmine asked with concern, while reaching out and groping back and forth on my body to check.
My mind was as muddled as a jar of paste during the bumpy ride. Now that I have been lying still for a while, I have relaxed a lot.
I took advantage of my sore body to sit up slowly, endured the dizziness, smiled, waved my hand to Jasmine and said, "I'm fine, I can't die!"
"Oh, it's okay. You really scared me to death just now. I thought you were going to be smashed to death?"
As she spoke, Jasmine rushed towards me and threw me to the ground again. The pain made me grimace.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it. I was really too excited."
Seeing that it hurt me, Jasmine hurriedly let go of me and stepped aside obediently.
I smiled bitterly, propped up my body and sat up again. After looking back and seeing that the monster was no longer visible, I let out a long breath.
I stretched my legs and gently kicked Fatty Wu, who was lying on the ground panting, and said, "Fatboy, thanks!"
Fatty Wu grinned and said: "No thanks, we are brothers. Didn't you just risk your life to save me? But there is one thing. You should lose weight. You are too damn heavy. I feel It's like carrying a mountain on my back, I want to throw you away halfway!"
After hearing Fatty Wu’s complaint, I was speechless for a while. If you say I’m fat, I have the most standard figure. It can even be said that I’m malnourished at the same figure. If I want to complain, I can only complain. Maybe he blames himself for being too fat and lacking exercise.
But I can understand it, because this journey is not flat or downhill, but uphill. Fatty Wu is very perseverant enough to be able to persist until this far before letting me go.
"By the way, don't just thank me. You should be more grateful to Miss Jasmine. She even threw away her camera because of you. You have to get a new one tomorrow!"
After listening to Fatty Wu's explanation, I realized that the reason why we were able to escape from the monster's bloody mouth was completely dependent on Jasmine's camera.
There was nothing to lose at that time, so Jasmine simply took out the camera from her camera bag and threw it at the monster.
While throwing it out, he may have accidentally touched the delayed photography function, causing the camera to suddenly start when it flew in front of the monster, and the flash also flashed suddenly, and it was this flash that disturbed the monster. Monster, Fatty Wu had the chance to pull me out from under the yak bone.
After listening to Fatty Wu’s explanation, I felt even more grateful to Jasmine and promised that if I returned alive, I would definitely give her one of the most advanced SLR cameras available today.
Gradually, my head no longer felt so dizzy, but my whole body still felt a little sore, but these were no longer a hindrance.
I stood up from the ground, looked around, and found that there was already a lot of snow going up from there, and I also saw a series of clear footprints in the snow.
I'm sure that's what Old Liu Tou left behind, because besides the two footprints, there's also a hole made by a cane poking into the ground along the way. Who else could it be if it wasn't him.
Climbing a mountain is not an easy task, not to mention that Old Liu Tou is the old Liu Tou with three legs. According to the time difference between us, there is not a very long distance, but along the snow-capped hillside, we did not see a single figure at all. .
If it weren't for the long string of footprints as evidence, I would have thought we were going in the wrong direction.
After resting for a while, we continued to march towards the Himalayas along the footsteps left by Old Liu Tou.
It took us most of a day, stopping and stopping, to finally reach the halfway point in the Himalayas.
Not only are the slopes steep and the temperature low, but most importantly the air is thin, which greatly increases the difficulty of our journey.
However, this is nothing. The most difficult thing is that I suddenly discovered that the series of footprints that originally guided us forward were missing!
