wild trail

Chapter 64
The night was pitch black, not a single star could be seen in the sky, the rustling sound in the darkness was getting closer and closer, the brightness of the flames could only allow people to see clearly three or four meters away in front of them, the dry grass in the darkness was covered by the unknown The creature made a crackling sound when it was crushed, and its slow and heavy steps were extremely clear in the silent night.

Hearing this voice, Wang Lang's back felt a little chilly. He didn't know what kind of monster was approaching him, and judging from the sound, there seemed to be more than one monster.

As the footsteps gradually approached, people finally saw the monster's appearance clearly. Three huge lizards were spitting out snake-like saliva, and the sticky saliva from the corners of their mouths kept dripping on the grass. The short and thick limbs slowly approached Wang Lang and the others.

The three monitor lizards looked sideways at the creatures in front of them. The luminous flames made them hesitate, but the human scent in the air passed through the message constantly stimulated their brains, and the returned information told them the creatures in front of them All delicious prey.

Wang Lang's heart sank little by little. The gray-black skin of these three large lizards with a body length of nearly three meters seemed as hard as crocodile skin. Wang Lang asked whether the tin spearhead could pierce their skin. Not sure.

"Be careful, everyone, try to spread out as much as possible. If the situation is not right, we will immediately turn around and run down the slope. We only take the weapons on our bodies and don't care about anything else. Do you understand?" Wang Lang said quickly.

After hearing Wang Lang's words, the people nodded solemnly, and confronted the three big lizards nervously.

Humans and lizards judged each other's strength, and finally this boring confrontation obviously exhausted the patience of the three lizards. Their desire for food made them ignore the threat of the flames, and rushed towards Wang Lang and the others with their stubby limbs.

Wang Lang didn't expect them to run so fast with such a heavy body. Seeing them pounce, Wang Lang clenched the spear in his hand, ready to find a chance to stab them to death.

The distance of three to four meters can be said to have passed in the blink of an eye. A large lizard ran to one meter in front of Wang Lang, suddenly stood up, and rushed towards Wang Lang with its stinky mouth open, at a very fast speed.

Although Wang Lang was condescending and had the advantage of the land, he didn't dare to stab it with his spear, but when he collided head-on with a monster of this weight, Wang Lang didn't have any chance of winning.

The moment the lizard rushed over, Wang Lang quickly jumped sideways, avoiding the big smelly mouth.

Just as Wang Lang stood firm, before the lizard landed on the ground and hadn't turned around, he raised his spear and stabbed hard at its back.

After a muffled sound, the lizard let out a painful and piercing cry.

Wang Lang's heart sank. He had used all his strength to hold it just now, and the spearhead was already bent, leaving only a shallow wound on the lizard's skin.

This stab did not kill the lizard, but made it even crazier. Wang Lang kept attacking Wang Lang, but Wang Lang could only dodge constantly, hitting the lizard with the bent spear from time to time.

Seeing that his weapons were still unable to cause fatal damage to these monsters, Wang Lang shouted at other people who were still fighting with the lizards: "Let's retreat!"

After speaking, he took the spear and ran down the slope quickly. The movements of the others were not much slower than Wang Lang. Run all the way behind.

The running speed of the people was much faster than that of the lizards. Although it was dark night, there was not even a stone on this grassland, and people didn't have to worry about being tripped. It didn't take long for Wang Lang and the others to leave the three lizards behind. .

After running for a while, Wang Lang looked back and heard the rustling sound behind him. Seeing that the three lizards were determined to kill himself and the others, Wang Lang felt ruthless in his heart, and shouted to the others: " We ran to the fire and set fire to them."

Wang Lang bypassed the place where the voice came from, and rushed forward, cursing in his heart: "Your mother, you still want to eat me, and later I will set fire to this grassland, and burn you stupid people to death!" !"

Panting, people ran to the fire and glanced down the slope. Although they didn't see the three lizards, the sound of the dry grass being crushed reminded people that the three lizards were chasing them. .

"Throw the fire down the slope and burn them to death!" Wang Lang shouted viciously.

Everyone heard the sound getting closer, and in fear, they finally ignited the withered grass piled on the side, and threw it towards the bottom of the breakthrough. For a moment, in the dark night, flickering flames continued to draw a parabola and fell to the ground. On the ground, it didn't take long for the dry weeds to be ignited, and the blazing flames lit up the dark night.

Wang Lang didn't dare to stay here any longer, and asked the people to carry their houses on their backs and run quickly towards the river and downhill.

Hearing the horrific screams of those lizards behind him, Wang Lang felt very relieved. Although this approach hurt the peace, compared with the lives of people like himself,

There was no sense of guilt after arson in my heart.

People wading through the creek, looking back at the fire-filled slope behind them, felt the pleasure of surviving a catastrophe.

As the fire got bigger and bigger, the silent grassland suddenly became a mess, and countless animals ran around in panic, trying to escape from this place that seemed to be the end of the world.

Wang Lang looked up at the dark night sky, and muttered to himself, "It should rain tonight!"

People didn't pay attention to the scene of the flames soaring into the sky behind them. With the obstruction of this stream, the fire would not spread to this side.

In order to prevent himself from being smoky, Wang Lang led the people forward for a while, and found a new campsite. The desperate running just now made the already sleepy people even more exhausted.

After people cleared an open space and lit the fire, Wang Lang and Shu Bark stayed to watch the night, while the others seized the time to rest.

The fire in the distance is still spreading, and the long line of fire is as magnificent as a day of fire snakes in the dark. It is unknown how many lives died in this disaster that was supposed to be made.

In the middle of the night, there was a muffled thunder in the sky, and pattering raindrops fell on the ground. With the rain, the fire was finally stopped from spreading. Under the cover of the rain, the distant line of fire was faintly visible, and finally disappeared in the darkness.

There is no place to shelter from the rain on the grassland. In order to be able to sleep comfortably in this light rain, people pull out some dry grass and cover their bodies, waiting for the dawn.
