Savage Secret

() The forest is dark and deep, and miasma is floating. If I didn't occasionally see the sky dotted with stars above my head, I would think I was in a cave now.What God gives to people is always limited, and it hasn't been long before we are no longer allowed to see the faint light of night stars above our heads, and the sky has completely darkened.

The fallen leaves under the feet are soft and slippery, and the swamp formed by the decay of the fallen leaves slightly reflects black light when the flashlight passes by. A string of bubbles, when the bubbles explode, a puff of green and black smoke is released, which is a very pungent smell.The trees in the deep mountains are unmanaged and grow with the trend. The thick branches of various colors and shapes stretch out at will, like the claws of a ferocious devil.That's not to mention, there are strange sounds around me from time to time, and the branches above my head sway occasionally, which makes me extremely nervous.

Some people sarcastically say that when walking on the road in the city, you should listen to all directions and look at the six directions: look up at the top of your head, beware of someone throwing objects in the sky upstairs; look around in the middle, be careful of speeding cars or thieves suddenly appearing; , to prevent the city's sewer cover from being closed and accidentally falling into it.The words are exaggerated, but they are almost a true portrayal of us now.

Along the way, apart from the bubbling miasma pits, what is even more shocking are the remnants of giant animals rolling and fighting on the ground, and scratches a few inches deep on some tree poles. Everything shows us the wild nature of the primeval forest. and strength.

I suddenly regretted that I broke in recklessly, and I didn't expect the old cow to feel the same: "Turtle son, I thought that walking through the forest would save some detours, but it turns out that there are all detours here, old trees, ancient vines It entangled the forest like a spider web, and I thought I had reached the Pansi Cave!"

It's too late to say anything now, so I can only go on bravely. In order to relieve the tense atmosphere, I smiled at the old cow: "I remember you once said, brother Niu: there must be monsters in the depth of the water, and there must be monsters in the high mountains. You walk Keep your eyes wide open, if you are really swallowed by some monster, you have to be a sensible ghost, it is best to be able to destroy it in the spirit of the sky, brother, I will burn a few more in front of your tablet in the future Zhu Xiang, toast a few more glasses of wine."

"Come on, Tie Yan, we've all been cursed with bat blood. We don't know how long we can live. Don't be too optimistic." Lao Niu's understatement was like a heavy hammer hitting my heart. I can still vividly see the appearance of hanging upside down on the tree like a black-haired bat. If one day I do the same, I might as well die, but do I still have a choice by then?

What the old cow said made me feel very miserable. I walked with my head buried in my head, and I was no longer in the mood to joke with him, but he grabbed me: "Tie Yan, do you know which direction is right? circle?"

Although the forest is not a formation, but the terrain is undulating, and the giant trees are like a screen. If you have to bypass it from time to time, there is no reference. After a long time, you will naturally have doubts.In this situation, I was also helpless. I climbed up the tree next to me and said with a wry smile, "To tell you the truth, I feel that either direction is right."

The old cow sighed: "This is not a solution, why don't you make it harder and climb to the top of the tree to have a look!"

The surrounding trees were several feet high at the lowest, and now the trees were slippery in the middle of the night, and I was really scared to climb up, so I said to the old cow, "Why don't you go up?"

The old cow scratched his head, and suddenly asked me inexplicably, "Tie Yan, what do you think of the air here?"

The woods are almost impenetrable, the air makes people sick, what else can I do, but I don't know why the old cow asked this question, and said in surprise: "Why? Do you like it? If I like it, I will take a few breaths!"

"No, no!" Lao Niu probably didn't expect me to tease him like this. He waved his big hands a few times and said to me with a smile: "People who live on the top of the mountain generally live longer. Do you know why? It's because the air above is good. Wow! I let you go up there to get some fresh air, so that you can live a long life, longevity..."

After talking for a long time, this bastard still wanted me to climb the tree, so he immediately said to him: "Stop talking around in circles, if you take that extra breath, can you live a few more years? I forgot to tell you, I was afraid of it since I was a child. Gao, if your foot slips and falls, will you be responsible?"

The old cow smiled awkwardly, and had a righteous look: "Tie Yan, I understand your worry, but I also have my own difficulties. Isn't the injury on my back not fully healed yet? Otherwise, I would have already I climbed up, so I don’t need to waste so much saliva with you.” After the old cow finished speaking, his eyes were dim, he stretched his hands on his back and rubbed it, and grinned, as if he was as uncomfortable as he was, as ugly as he was, as if he couldn’t survive For a moment.

For us, the only way right now is to climb up a tree. If we are lucky and the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, we can judge the approximate direction based on the position of the moon and the constellations. If we are unlucky and the sky is covered by clouds, You can also look at your surroundings.After all, the forests of Shennongjia are distributed in the mountains and hills of varying heights, unlike some tropical rainforests, which can't be seen at a glance.

The attitude of the old cow is very clear, he refuses to go up, I can only give him a bitter look, and pick a tree with luxuriant branches, this kind of tree is relatively easy to climb.Halfway through, I heard the old cow shouting from below: "Tie Yan, don't force yourself if you can't! Be careful, keep your feet firmly on your feet, and hold your hands tight."

I was halfway up the climb before he told me, what a fucking irony, the more I listened to it, the more I felt that there was something in his words, and I felt annoyed: "Are you fucking laughing at me, or are you cursing me!"

The old cow seemed aggrieved: "You don't know what is the relationship between the two of us? I am like Guan Zhong, and you are like Bao Shuya. We help each other and support each other. The bow cannot be separated from the arrow, and the arrow cannot be separated from the bow. We can only do it. One pair, but you are very suspicious and always regard my kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs!"

I was even more depressed: "Lao Niu, Guan Zhong, is this a person with a big problem? If you make money in business, you can get more; when you were a deserter in a war, Bao Shuya came out to smooth things over; Death didn't make people get addicted to being a prime minister, saying that Bao Shuya is not suitable to be a prime minister. If you hadn't said it on this occasion, I really can't understand what is the acquaintance of Guan Bao praised by everyone in history. To put it in a popular way: Behind a strong man, there is always a stepping stone that is willing to give. If you compare yourself to Guan Zhong and me to Bao Shuya, don’t you mean that you want to step on me as a stepping stone? Also, don’t use bows and arrows as a metaphor anymore. Say, you are the bow, I am the arrow, you fucking shot one after another, the arrows are shot casually, but the bow is still a bow..."

The air at high places is really good, and I feel that my mind is flexible, and I can analyze the truth one by one.While I was talking with gusto, the dense branches and leaves above my head shook violently. It wasn't that there were fallen leaves swirling and flying down from my eyes.

At this time, I was only about a foot away from the treetop, and when the top moved, I kept shaking here. I was so scared that I quickly hugged the trunk of the tree and dared not move again.

The old cow found something wrong even under the tree: "Tie Yan, don't mess around, be careful to fall!"

"Grandson likes to make trouble in the top of a tree more than ten feet high. I don't have so many lives to toss like this. There is something on the tree!" Maybe I was too nervous. The shaking of the branches was mixed together, and the old cow probably didn't hear it clearly, so he yelled a few more words, and then saw him holding a flashlight to shine on the tree.

Now I am not in the mood to care about the old cow, my mind is in a mess, trying to think about what will be on the top of my head: although this tree is thick and dense, but because it has reached the top of the tree, the thickest branch is about the size of an arm. It was impossible to stand there as a savage, because the savages in my memory were all strong and strong, and it was definitely not something that thin branches could bear.

Golden eagle?The old cow had a feud with the golden eagle before, and the golden eagle chased us, but it’s not right to think about it. Many days have passed, and even if the old cow drank the blood of the little golden eagle, he would have already digested it. In the middle of the night, no matter how good the golden eagle's eyesight and sense of smell are, it is impossible to find us.Besides, if it was really a golden eagle, they must have lifted the entire canopy of the tree long ago, and they would never shake it twice.

what would that beWolf Wushao?It is also impossible, although the snake can climb trees, but if the wolf black tip is lucky enough to escape, the trees will be broken and the forest will be destroyed wherever it passes, and the rocks will roll and the sand will fly, and it will not climb to the tree top at all.I tried my best to think about all the things in my memory that I didn't provoke but barely avoided, but I couldn't figure out what it was.At this moment, the shaking of the top of the tree suddenly stopped.

The flashlight below kept turning around the tree, as if trying to find a suitable angle to look at it, but in the end it couldn’t work. The anxious old cow could only howl: “Tie Yan, what’s going on up there? Say something when you hear it!”

I was at the top of a ten-foot-high tree, and when the voice of the old cow reached my ears, it was already not loud. If I wanted to return him, I had to shout like him.In this way, the thing on the top of the head must have been alarmed, so he ignored the old cow, but quietly hugged the branch and climbed up a few steps, trying to see what was going on.

I have my own calculations: the thing that can climb on a branch that is only as thick as an arm must not be too big. It scared me half to death just now, and I don’t want to make it easy. If possible, I am going to grab it Throw it under a tree, and kill it half dead.

The oily green leaves are layered on top of each other, covering the top tightly. I widened my eyes and searched hard, trying to find out the location of the thing above, but I was disappointed in the end. In desperation, I had to pull out the branches and leaves with my hands. At this time, a head suddenly fell from the top and appeared half a foot in front of me: a head as big as a bowl, covered with fluffy golden-red hair, a light blue light from pale cheeks, and dark eyes that were bigger than bull's eyes. Still round, the nostrils facing the sky are thin and ugly, the thick lips protrude two inches, the mouth is wide open, canine teeth are exposed, and the face is fierce.
