Chapter 539 The legend of the mandrill

"The mountain spirit appears? What the hell is that?"

Gu Xiaole and Ning Lei were both stunned at the same time, but immediately they found that Lin Jiao and Lin Rui had run into the waist-deep sea water, and stood there tremblingly shouting at them:

"Brother Xiaole, it's not long before you left, we saw a group of hilly spirits wearing strange feathered clothes coming out of the woods! My sister and I were so scared that we didn't know where to hide, but seeing that they were very short, we simply hid in the sea. As expected, those guys didn't dare to chase after them!"

Lin Jiao was still explaining while trembling.

Ning Lei looked around and did not find any mountain spirits that their sisters were talking about, but Gu Xiaole carefully found some small footprints on the beach.

These footprints look similar to those of human footprints, but the diameter is very small, about the size of a 6 or 7-year-old child’s feet.

"Could this be the footprint of the mountain spirit?" Although Gu Xiaole believed the words of the sisters at all, he also felt that there must be something strange about it.

So I took out the large-aperture Browning that I had been carrying with me, and walked around the woods around the beach, but I didn't see any mountain spirits coming out.

And the row of tiny footprints soon disappeared deep in the woods. Of course, in this case, Gu Xiaole did not dare to enter the jungle at will to find out.

He asked Ning Lei to stay on the beach to take care of Alida and Dacia, while he drifted over to pick up the two Lin sisters.

"Brother Xiaole, didn't you notice it just now?" Lin Jiao asked loudly when she saw Gu Xiaole coming.

Gu Xiaole shook his head:

"I only saw a row of very small footprints, but I have already entered the jungle! Maybe it's the mountain spirit you two mentioned?"

Gu Xiaole walked closer to them as he spoke:

"Let's go, don't keep soaking in the water. After a while, the sun will go down and the sea will be cold!"

Although Lin Jiao and Lin Rui were still very scared, they still felt much more at ease with Gu Xiaole, so they followed Gu Xiaole and walked back to the beach.

Back on the beach, the three of them came to the rock where Ning Lei and the others temporarily settled. Gu Xiaole asked in detail about what had just happened.

With Lin Jiao's vivid description and Lin Rui's addition, Gu Xiaole learned about it. It turned out that about half an hour after they went out, Lin Jiao heard the sound of "Roluo" similar to human whistling sounds from the woods.

The sound sounded weird, and it seemed like I had heard it somewhere.

At first, Lin Jiao thought it was Gu Xiaole and the others who came back, so she deliberately made a strange sound to joke with their sisters.

So Lin Jiao stood up and walked to the edge of the jungle where the sound came from, shouting inside, saying that I saw you! Don’t hide!

As a result, as soon as her voice finished speaking, the strange "Roluo" whistling sound immediately came to an abrupt end.

Lin Jiao shouted several times in a row, but there was still no sound in the jungle.

The little girl is a little tired now. Although it is broad daylight now, this experience of being in danger on the deserted island has also kept her quite alert to these potential dangers.

She reached out and picked up a long branch from the ground and held it in her hand, and stepped back and moved towards her sister.

But at this moment, about four or five dwarfs, who were covered with bright feathers but were about one meter tall, suddenly ran out of the jungle.

"My God!" Lin Jiao still felt scared when she said this. After all, this strange dress and strange height cannot make people think that they are normal humans.

These dwarves were dark-skinned and had dyes of various colors on their faces. Each of them was also holding a spear cut out of a sharp bamboo tube.

When these guys saw Lin Jiao and Lin Rui behind her, they also widened their terrified eyes, as if they had never seen anyone like this!

But Lin Jiao didn't have the courage to communicate with them, so she turned around and ran away. When these dwarves saw Lin Jiao running, they actually made another strange "Roluo" sound from their mouths, and chased them all the way!

Now Lin Rui, who was standing behind Lin Jiao, was so scared that she was about to fly away. She pulled her neck and shouted loudly, "Young sister, run away quickly!"

Lin Jiao knew it wasn't good at hearing it, and she didn't even have the courage to turn around. Two ducks and one duck were just running!

I soon met Lin Rui on the beach, but the dwarfs behind them seemed to have not stopped. After driving them away from the edge of the jungle, they still surrounded them again.

Lin Jiao and Lin Rui were already at a loss, but when they think of the heights of these guys, they must not try to go into the water easily, right?

So when Gu Xiaole and the others came back, they saw the scene of the sisters standing in the deep water of the waist.

After listening to their stories, Gu Xiaole nodded, then looked at Ning Lei on the side and asked:

"What do you think?"

Ning Lei blinked the seductive pair of apricot kernel eyes and thought for a while and said:

"From the description of the two sisters, the mountain spirit is definitely not a mountain spirit! I think it should be a human!"

As soon as she said it, Lin Jiao was opposed:

"Sister Xiaolei, I know you read a lot and drink all the foreign ink, but don't look down on the knowledge of our sisters too much! Can't we tell whether it's a human or an elf?"

"Yes! They don't look like humans no matter how they look like? They are only about 1 meter tall, and the world, including ancient times, may not have such a short average height!"

Lin Rui, who was standing beside her, also said in a slogan.

Ning Lei smiled:

"Maybe they are all children who are not adults, and they can't say it?"

"Impossible!" Lin Jiao shook her head and said:

"Although their faces are covered with feathers, you can still see some of the contours on their faces. The faces of those mountain spirits are full of deep wrinkles, so there is no sign of a child!"

Gu Xiaole smiled slightly when he heard this:

"Even if they are not children, how can you be sure that they should be mountain spirits? Could it be that you have seen mountain spirits?"

"this……"

Gu Xiaole's words stumped the two of them. The two looked at each other, and no one knew how to answer.

Gu Xiaole continued:

"I don't know anything about mountain spirits, but I really know some of the mandrills that are a little similar to them, but they are completely different from what you said!

When I was very young, I heard from my family that children had to sleep at night, and they could not cry or laugh loudly, because this would attract the Malaysian monkey to capture him and eat him!

Later, when I got older, I asked my third uncle who often went to the mountains to hunt what a Malaysian monkey was?

Uncle San told me that the so-called Malaysian monkey is actually a primate living in deep mountains and forests. These guys look like monkeys but not monkeys. They are strong and have a very long strange face. They look a bit like actors who painted Peking Opera faces on the stage. They had a scientific name in ancient times, called Mandrill!

So I asked him, since this kind of Malaysian monkey is just a creature similar to a monkey, is it all the rumors that they caught children and eat them made up by adults to scare us children?
