Basically, everyone has a knife. Except for the gun in Goatee's hand, I handed another gun I found into Bai Bing's hand and taught her how to use it, because in the Among this group of people, she may be the weakest. It would be good to have a gun for self-defense, but it can also play a role in protecting her sister.
We marched all the way eastward in the jungle, spending an afternoon crossing one basin after another, large and small, and finally walked out of the jungle towards evening and arrived at a relatively flat place.
The trees are not as dense as before, and the field of vision is gradually broadening. The towering Changbai Mountain is right in front of us, as if it is within reach. However, a rough estimate requires at least a few kilometers of walking to reach it. arrive.
Before that, we have to pass through a seemingly majestic and long canyon.
There is a river in the canyon. Its source seems to flow down from the direction of Changbai Mountain, but where it goes is unknown, because looking down along the river, it turns out to be a cliff tens of feet high. Between the river Water poured down from it.
The sky has become darker and darker, and a patch of western glow has appeared on the horizon. My suggestion is to wait until the next day before entering the canyon, because no one knows what unknown and strange things are waiting for us in the canyon.
We have reached the open area. If we are lucky, we will encounter good weather. The moonlight will be our best barrier and weapon against the humanoid monster.
Before it got completely dark, we walked a little further, widening the distance from the jungle, and stationed the camp next to the river flowing out of the canyon, so that we could drink water. The problem was solved, because we didn’t bring much water and had already drank a lot along the way.
The two tents were quickly set up, and one of them was given to Bai Xue, who was still groggy. Bai Bing lived with her for easy care.
No need to think about the other tent, it must be the one with the goatee. This old guy has reached this age and still knows how to enjoy it. Not only I can't stand it, but even the three bodyguards he hired will be displeased. It showed on his face.
In order to be on guard against the humanoid monster coming after our aura, we made preparations to prevent the moonlight from being obscured by dark clouds, so we built seven or eight fires around the camp, and we were about to find it. A last ditch supply of gasoline is also prepared, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
The sun disappeared in an instant, and the bright moon hung high in the night sky. Without the obstruction of dense trees, the places beyond the reach of the fire were also very clear, especially the towering Changbai Mountain, which seemed to be covered with clouds under the moonlight. It is covered with a layer of silver gauze, like a fairyland.
The water in the river is crystal clear and does not contain any impurities. This water does not need to be heated and is of natural mineral water quality. This is why the bottled water factory of a nationally renowned brand is built here to process the water in the river. Put it in a bottle and sell it for money, saving time and effort.
It is said that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, but such a saying does not exist here at all. Although it is already night, under the reflection of the bright moonlight, the bottom of the river can still be clearly seen, and you can see A wide variety of cold water fish, large and small, swim among them.
The few pieces of roasted bear meat I had brought with me had been eaten long ago. I had been eating some unhealthy compressed food in the past two days. There was no reason not to catch live fish when I saw them, so everyone started to do it together. , and soon I caught a lot of fish.
The larger ones are grilled and eaten, while the smaller ones are used to stew a delicious fish soup.
After a delicious whole fish feast, many people began to feel sleepy.
Although Bai Chi has received effective treatment since he was injured, he has not had a good rest in the past few days. Looking at his tired appearance, let him rest first. If anything happens, I will call him. of.
I only left a few people to keep vigil with me, one was Brother Qiang, and the other was the man with the shawl. As for the short-haired girl, I forced her to accompany Bai Bing and take care of Bai Xue.
In fact, there is still a gap between the short-haired girl and Bai Bing, because Bai Bing called the short-haired girl a bitch at that time. The short-haired girl has always held a grudge, or she was afraid of Bai Bing's identity, otherwise Bai Bing would have died long ago. Guaranteed.
Originally, I was worried that these two people would fight over this, or secretly try to trip each other up, but I don’t know when they started. These two women were actually talking and laughing. It didn’t look like they had ever been so close. hate each other.
It was surprisingly quiet that night, with birds chirping and insects chirping constantly, which meant we were safe and the humanoid monster had not caught up.
I mentioned the human-shaped monster, or the goatee mentioned it when we were on the road, and I realized that the human-shaped monster was actually a creature from the ancient demon world, Xing Tian.
Xingtian, also known as Xingyao, according to the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Xingtian competed with the Yellow Emperor and was beheaded by the Yellow Emperor. After his head was gone, Xingtian did not die, but his breasts turned into eyes, and his navel became a mouth to continue to live. , whose weapon is a huge stone knife that gathers the evil energy of heaven and earth.
After listening to Goatee's words, I was very shocked. I didn't expect that the humanoid headless monster turned out to be the legendary ancient monster.
The appearance of Xing Tian may have shocked everyone else, or it may have directly subverted their perception of the world.
But for me, I was just surprised. I was also surprised why this ancient monster was entrenched in this rice bowl, and why it was so cruel to kill everyone who tried to enter. As for its identity, I have no idea. No, not too surprised.
In the past two years, I have seen so many things that subverted my worldview. The four ancient ferocious beasts in Xuejia Town are so strange, the colorful unicorns on Penglai Island, and even one after another guarding one side. Dragon shape, each of these is better than Xingtian.
It's just that this Xingtian is really bloodthirsty, more terrifying than any other strange beast.
………………
The night passed so peacefully, which made me a little uncomfortable. Seeing that the sky had turned white, I stood up, yawned, and stretched my sore back from sitting.
There is nothing to worry about now, the sky is already bright, let alone Xingtian, I am afraid that even the wild beasts in the mountains and forests will not dare to do it again.
At this time, Bai Bing and the short-haired girl had woken up and were taking care of Bai Xue, who had also just woken up.
After waking up, Bai Xue no longer acted as crazy and noisy as before, and became surprisingly quiet. However, it gave me the feeling that she seemed a little foolish, but it was better than losing her life. She can be cured if she is ill, but if she loses her life, Well, even the Great Luo Immortal has nothing to do.
I was a little anxious at this time. Seeing that the women were all awake, I simply planned to walk farther for convenience, so I walked downstream along the river.
When I felt that I was far away from the camp, I released the water casually.
When the water was released, I heard the sound of a waterfall pouring in front of me, and then I realized that I was only a dozen meters away from the cliff with a drop of dozens of feet.
Out of curiosity, I went to the edge of the cliff and looked down, but I couldn't see anything except a white cloud.
My wish to see the great mountains and rivers of my motherland was shattered, so I simply turned around and planned to go back to the camp.
But when I turned my head, I saw a little girl who seemed to be only seven or eight years old squatting beside the river more than ten meters away from me.
The little girl was wearing bright red clothes and pants, and her hair was tied with two hairpins of the same red silk. At first glance, she looked like Nezha from The Devil Boy Comes into the World.
hiss……
This is really weird, and it wouldn’t be surprising if it happened in other places, but where is this place, a weird rice bowl, how could such a little girl appear here?
Out of curiosity, I walked towards where the little girl was, until I closed the distance to less than five meters. The little girl still didn't notice my presence, and was concentrating on holding the clear glass with her two little hands. The river is drinking freely.
