After walking not far along the way, I saw Father Panma’s son running towards me in a hurry.
Behind them were a group of young and middle-aged people, holding torches and various farm tools such as hoes and sickles. They looked anxious and went straight up the mountain without even saying hello as they passed by.
Wu Xiaoxie felt that the expressions of these people were wrong, so she asked Agui to stop one of them and ask what was going on.
After asking, they found out that the father Panma they were looking for had an accident on the mountain. A hunter's son saw his blood-stained clothes on the mountain. They are now taking people to search the mountain to find him.
Agui became anxious upon hearing this and quickly asked, "Where did you find it?"
"In the buffalo head ditch."
After the man finished speaking, he followed the large troops and left in a hurry.
Agui clapped his hands and said anxiously: "Oh, why is it so far away?"
He turned around and saw Zhang Zhuxun and the other three beside him, and said hurriedly: "Three bosses, you go back first, I have to follow and help."
Zhang Zhuoxun and the other three looked at each other. Wu Xiaoxie frowned and said solemnly, "I think there might be something fishy about this matter."
"Let's go, let's follow and have a look." Zhang Zhu raised his chin as he rushed toward the crowd.
The little brother looked calm, raised his feet and took the lead to follow.
Seeing that the three of them were also following, Agui didn't agree at first, but after some hard talking, he reluctantly agreed. However, he told the three of them to follow him closely. The mountains at night are the most dangerous, and they must not get separated. p>
There were twenty or thirty people in the group, half of whom held shotguns in their hands, and a dozen strong hounds were leading the way.
After entering the buffalo head ditch, the hounds followed the smell of blood and led them to a tangle of trees. They kept hovering under the trees, their gleaming eyes always staring at the trees, and a warning and excited low sounded in their throats.
Roar.
The person who first discovered the bloody clothes pointed to the tree branch above the hound's head and said, "Look, it's right there."
The experienced hunter found blood drops in the grass under the tree. He followed the blood stains on the tree trunk and found a tattered piece of bloody clothing in the darkness above.
I quickly asked someone to go up the tree and take off the bloody clothes, and found obvious signs of tearing on them.
Apparently, Father Panma encountered some kind of wild beast in the forest, so he climbed up a tree in desperation and left the bloody clothes behind to report the news.
Wu Xiaoxie asked Agui, "What kind of beasts are there in your mountains?"
Agui's face was ugly, "There were tigers in the mountains a long time ago, but now they are all extinct. With Panma's experience and skill, the only ones that can hurt him are probably leopards."
Wu Xiaoxie was shocked when he heard that leopards can climb trees. If it was really a leopard, maybe the old man Panma would have been taken away by the dog.
Zhang Zhuxun lightly sniffed the smell of blood in the air and frowned slightly, "Probably not. If it were really a leopard, the amount of bleeding would not be so small. Father Panma should still be alive. This should be a carnivore smaller than a leopard."
Yes, let’s take the dog and look around here again.”
After searching around the bushes for a long time, no clues were found, so everyone discussed how to divide the troops into several groups, and each group brought dogs to expand the search area.
These mountain dogs are quite tough. They have hunted with their masters in the mountains since they were young. They have rich experience. They quickly smell the scent and run towards the target.
Zhang Zhuoxun and his group followed closely behind, walking deeper into the narrow valley of Shui Niu Tougou.
In the middle of the night, the crescent moon hung on the treetops.
There are four dogs in their team. They are all big dogs with white background and black spots. They are probably from a litter. Anyway, they look very similar.
The four dogs led Zhang Zhuxun and the others to the bottom of a mudslide slope caused by rain. They all looked fiercely at a bush on the hillside and roared in a low voice.
Everyone was on alert. Several hunters who had guns in their hands loaded their guns with bullets, gave each other a few secret signals, and then quietly surrounded them towards the bushes on the hillside.
Zhang Zhuxun took advantage of their attention to the front, took out three half-arm-long double-edged daggers from the space, handed them to Wu Xiaoxie and the younger brother, gestured to them to be careful, and then he also bowed
Touch your waist forward.
Wu Xiaoxie was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe. If the one who attacked Panma's father was really a leopard, the thing behind the grass would probably be terrible, and the culprit might be staring at them with greedy eyes in a corner.
Zhang Zhuoxun went to the front. A hunter saw his tender face and wanted to stop him. Zhang Zhuoxun had already used a knife to push away the grass. He struck it with a flashlight, but there was no body behind him, only an ugly black stone full of cracks. Just as he was wondering, a hunter next to him suddenly felt something was wrong with the soil under his feet. Just as he was about to speak, his feet suddenly sank, and he suddenly fell down.
Zhang Zhuoxun quickly grabbed the back of his neck and lifted him up, pulling him out of the soil and shouting, "Run! This place is going to collapse."
The few remaining people ran away immediately, retreated to the bottom of the hillside, and stopped not far away with the others.
Under the pale light of the flashlight, something seemed to be surging beneath the soil on the hillside in front of me. With the ugly stone as the center, the entire surrounding area sunk downwards, and with a loud roar, the ground shook violently.
When the flying dust dispersed, a deep pit with a diameter of more than two meters collapsed in front of them. The place where the people were standing had collapsed into it, and the ugly stone was standing upright on a piece of flattened rotten wood. If you looked carefully, you could see that there was someone there.
I couldn't help but scream.
It turns out that piece of rotten wood is not ordinary wood, but a simple and old coffin.
The coffin had become dilapidated over time, and the ugly stone fell and smashed the big end of the coffin. The black water inside leaked out, giving off a disgusting stench.
Everyone was stunned. The mountain people were superstitious and stayed away from there. Agui also muttered that it was unlucky to see a coffin in the middle of the night and he had to wash his eyes when he went back.
The younger brother jumped into the pit first, followed by Wu Xiaoxie, and the two of them circled the coffin several times.
The little brother suddenly stretched out his hand and took out something from the dented gap in the ugly stone.
Zhang Zhuxun stood by the pit and held a light for them. The thing was a plastic bag, which was also stained with a lot of blood.
The plastic bag was empty, obviously the contents had been taken away long ago.
"Come up." Zhang Zhuxun reached out and pulled Wu Xiaoxie up.
The little brother also jumped up, showed the plastic bag to Zhang Shuxun, and said softly: "He took the stuff away."
Zhang Zhuoxun nodded, "It hasn't been long and the blood hasn't solidified yet. He must be nearby."
After speaking, he turned around and explained to Agui and the others, asking everyone to search carefully around here.
Those people were obviously still unconscious, with expressions of shock and confusion. Looking at these three people, they were clearly dressed like city dwellers. How could they be so bold that they dared to jump into the grave?
Agui whistled and called the dog back. After some discussion, they split into two teams, with the ancient tomb as the center. One team searched up the hillside, while Zhang Zhuxun and the others followed Agui and the other two hunters.
Find below.
Not long after, the sound of dogs barking suddenly came from another group of people not far away. The hounds Zhang Zhu and the others were leading ran back after hearing the sound.
Then there was a shrill scream, and countless shadows flashed out of the darkness over there, making a mess.
Agui shouted over there and asked, "What happened?"
No one answered him, and in the shadows of the trees, only bursts of wailing could be heard, the grass shook wildly, and they quickly approached Zhang Zhuxun and the others like lightning.
Zhang Zhuoxun waved his hand and handed Wu Xiaoxie a pistol, "Be careful, there is something in the grass."
Agui's face changed drastically and he yelled, "Let the dogs out!"
After a few whistles, the hounds roared and rushed forward, fighting with the dark shadows that were quickly passing through the grass.
Soon, the painful screams of some kind of wild beast were heard in the grass, and Agui and the others also caught up with guns in hand. They all had hunting experience. They yelled a few words in the local dialect, and then followed the dog chasing the black shadow into the forest.
Go.
Several hounds brought by their team gathered together and quickly surrounded the prey. Those things must be quite big, and the hounds were unable to bite them at the moment.
Agui and the others were well prepared. The things in the grass were very cunning. They were surrounded, but they did not flee in panic. Instead, they turned around and hid in the waist-high grass, so that Agui and the others did not dare to approach for a while.
The situation was deadlocked for a while.
When the flashlight light shines over, I can only see a few pairs of green eyes inside.
Zhang Zhuxun and his brother surrounded Wu Xiaoxie in the middle, quietly sensing the surrounding situation.
Suddenly, Zhang Zhuoxun's eyes sharpened, he raised his hand and waved it in one direction, and a flash of silver light shot through the air and disappeared into the grass behind Agui and the others.
A shrill scream rang in everyone's ears, and it sounded very much like the scream of a feline.
Upon hearing this voice, Agui and the others' expressions suddenly changed, "It's a lynx!"
Although lynxes are solitary animals, there are more than three surrounded by hounds at the moment. I don’t know how many more are hidden in the dark grass around them.
After that cry, strange ripples continued to appear in the surrounding grass, and something was crawling inside, constantly approaching them.
Agui and the others reacted immediately and whistled to call the dog back. They also gathered around and scanned the surroundings with guns in hand.
"Be careful, they are surrounding us!" Zhang Zhuoxun reminded.
The little brother looked solemn and said in a low voice: "Back towards the ancient tomb, there is too much grass here."
Several people retreated toward the hillside while being alert.
When it was approaching the hillside, the hound in front suddenly stopped, its back arched, its soft fur popped up, it bared its teeth as if to attack, and let out a low roar at the grass next to it.
The ripples in the grass stopped for a moment, and then approached them at a faster speed.
"Let's go!"
Zhang Zhuoxun pushed Wu Xiaoxie up the hillside as quickly as possible.
He turned around and pushed Agui and the others up, because it had just rained and the soil under their feet was soft and could not bear the weight of so many people. He could only keep urging them to climb higher.
In the grass, the sound of dead branches and leaves being trampled was continuous and ubiquitous.
After Agui and the others climbed up, they quickly called Zhang Zhuxun and the younger brother to climb up too.
"Brother, you go first!" Zhang Zhuoxun urged.
The little brother shook his head and stared at one place.
"Run away, run away!"
Agui and the others stood at a high place and could see more clearly. They didn't know what they saw, so they suddenly shouted.
In an instant, several black shadows jumped out from the grass. They were as big as calves, with strong postures, and light brown fur with patterns. At first glance, they thought they were tiger cubs or leopards, but their ferocious furry faces looked bigger than
Tigers and leopards are more pointed, with big ears, and two pieces of black hair sticking out of the tips of their ears. They have striking eyes, white foreheads, and fierce eyes. They killed Zhang Zhuxun and the two of them in just one breath.
Zhang Zhuoxun swung his sword and struck the animal in front of him on the face.
The lynx was so frightened that it used its strong waist and abdominal strength to twist in the air and dodge the blow. The moment it landed, it kicked off its hind legs hard, bounced up and rushed towards Zhang Zhuxun's throat. This is the hunting habit of cats.
Means.
Zhang Shuxun turned his wrist and blocked its claws with a knife. At the same time, a similar double-edged short knife appeared out of thin air in his other hand. He thrust it upward and hit the lynx's trachea under its throat. Then he raised his hand.
With a flick, the one stuck on the knife flew out and hit the one that jumped up from behind.
On the other side, the boy was standing on the slope. After getting rid of a lynx that wanted to climb up the slope, he was grabbing the other one's tail and pulling it down.
The sharp limbs of the lynx were deeply pierced into the soil, but because the soil was soft and there was no way to use it, the younger brother grabbed him and dragged him down. He rushed forward and inserted the knife into the lynx's head.
The lynx was in pain and didn't care about protecting its soft belly. It turned over directly and started scratching the little brother with its four claws.
The little brother rolled sideways, and when he stood up, he raised his legs and kicked a smaller lynx that was rushing next to him.
The hunters on the slope were not idle either, and kept firing. Some lynxes were unlucky enough to receive several shots at the same time, leaving half of their bodies open.
Wu Xiaoxie had quick eyes and quick hands. When Zhang Zhuxun was concentrating on dealing with one of them, he raised his hand and shot the lynx behind him who was trying to sneak attack between the eyebrows. The lynx died on the spot.
There were more than a dozen lynx besieging them. After all the pioneers in the front died, those behind them became more and more alert.
Fortunately, this slope is far away from the trees, and the lynx is not good at close combat. Otherwise, once the lynx climbs into the tree and controls the air domain, it will be very difficult for them to deal with it.
The roaring sound of the lynx is terrifying, and it is extremely weird in this dim scene.
Zhang Zhuoxun threw his hand and threw several octagonal silver darts into the most volatile place in the grass. With a rumble and a few thunderous explosions, the grass was blasted into several strange large craters, as if the UFO suddenly descended and left behind
The strange mark.
Animals are naturally afraid of thunder. After a few loud noises, the lynx's offensive was obviously a little timid. It crawled in the grass and stared at the few people on the hillside with its green eyes. It was obvious that it did not want to give up the close proximity.
The meat on the side.
More and more rapid dog barks were heard in the distance, and Agui and the others showed joy on their faces. It was obvious that other groups of people searching the mountain had heard the noise and had already rushed over with the dogs.
The lynx's furry ears stood up, and its fangs bared, planning to launch a final wave of offensive. Grave Robber: The last patriarch of my family is my little brother
