Chapter 4 Chapter 3 Midnight Horror

When I woke up, it was already night.Lao Li and the others did not go any further, but camped under the broken tree. It seemed that Lao Li and the others were talking not far away, but I just woke up at that time, so dizzy and dizzy that I didn't have the energy to hear what they were saying clearly, but I just vaguely heard someone yelling and wanting to do something overnight.Gradually, my head became more and more dizzy, and those originally vague voices became more and more faint, until I couldn't hear anything in the end, it seemed that only the buzzing sound in my head remained.

In the forest area of ​​Tibet, people can freeze to death at night. Although I am wrapped in a quilt, I can still feel the bone-chilling cold.So although my head is still not clear, I still moved instinctively, trying to make my body a little warmer. As soon as I moved, a hand was placed on my body, and I felt that there was someone beside me, and my head became clearer. Under the faint firelight, I saw Lao Li's worried face. He also found that I woke up, didn't say a word, just handed me a biscuit and a Wuji ointment by the way, then got up and walked away. At this time, my head was not very bright, but I still realized that Lao Li wanted me to apply some ointment.According to the previous method, I rubbed Wuji ointment in my ears. As soon as I put it on, I immediately became sober after a cold war.It was only then that I noticed the situation around me: those people fell asleep on the other side of the fire, they must have been exhausted, and they actually snored.He didn't see Lao Li, so he probably went on sentry duty, because he didn't see any trace of the lion who was inseparable from him.

I started to sleep for most of the day, and now although I feel dizzy, I can't sleep at all.I lay on the ground and looked up at the stars dotted in the sky.Looking back on what happened today, it always makes me feel inexplicable.Especially the footprints that suddenly disappeared, which puzzled me, as well as those broken shoes and blood stains. Could it be that the deserter had been eaten by the bear for breakfast?I just don't know why, but I always have a premonition that the deserter must not be dead yet.Maybe, something else happened that I don't know about?And when I woke up just now, I seemed to hear Lao Li and the others arguing about something, but unfortunately my ears didn't work at all at that time, and I couldn't hear the specific content clearly.

After thinking about it, my head became confused again, and I wanted to fall asleep groggyly.In a trance, I seemed to hear the sound of someone coming. I thought it was Lao Li who had returned, and my tense nerves relaxed. Unexpectedly, just as soon as I relaxed and was about to fall asleep, the sound of someone’s footsteps stopped next to my ears. I was already in a quasi-sleep state at that time, and I didn’t expect any other weird things to happen. At that time, Lao Li probably wouldn't have anything important to tell me.I was thinking in a daze when I suddenly felt someone lower his head and put his mouth close to my ear.The mouth got closer and closer, and the hot and humid breath blew directly into my ears.

In a world of ice and snow, someone blowing hot air into your ears is not a pleasure.I shrank my head, trying to avoid his mouth, but unexpectedly, he seemed to be addicted, and within two seconds of turning my head, the moisture chased me again, and there seemed to be something like saliva It dripped on my face. With a start, I remembered what they had said about black bears attacking people at night. I only got a bear paw during the day, and now I have a shadow of that dark thing.Thinking of the black bear, I immediately woke up for the most part, but I heard that the thing has barbs on its tongue, as long as it is licked by this buddy once, my face will basically be ruined.Fortunately, it should still be testing me now, and has no intention of attacking me.

Although I was extremely nervous, I still tried to hold my breath as steady as possible, and I must not stimulate it at this time, or it will slap it with another paw, and I am afraid I will have to confess here tonight. In an instant, countless thoughts turned in my mind, trying to avoid the damn black bear. When I closed my eyes and thought hard, I suddenly felt a tongue slowly approaching my ear. This is not a good feeling, as long as one is careless and the black bear licks it, my ears will say goodbye to me.At this chaotic and critical juncture, all I could think about was how could my old man die here if he was not married yet.Just when my head was in a mess, a cold thing suddenly touched my right ear!

There was a bang in my head, as if it had exploded at that moment, and the hairs all over my body stood on end... Before I had time to think about it, I bumped into it, then turned over suddenly, and threw the quilt covering me over. I don't know where my head hit, but I just wanted to throw the quilt out, at least to cover the black bear, so that it can't move for a while, so I can get away.Even I didn't know, how could I have such a good skill at that time, almost the moment I lifted the quilt and threw it at the bear, I climbed onto the fallen giant tree. As soon as I climbed the tree, before I could react, I saw a pair of dark eyes in the dense branches in front of me—Lao Li, it turned out that he had been hiding in the tree. I just wanted to talk to him, but he covered his eyes. shut my mouth.

It happened suddenly, before I figured out what he wanted to do, before I had time to struggle, there was a roar from under the tree, but that sound was not the sound of a Tibetan mastiff, and it would definitely not be the sound of a bear, but rather... a human... …human voices! Lao Li's face immediately became very ugly, and he hurriedly dragged me straight into the dense branches.After I got into the branch, he patted my shoulder, pointed down, and motioned me to look. At this time, the moonlight was quite good, and even the shadows of people could be clearly seen.I looked in the direction of his fingers, and the quilt was lifted by something under it.When I saw the thing coming out from under the quilt, my head thumped loudly. If it wasn't for Lao Li pulling me, I would almost have been so scared that I fell to the ground!

Even if I met a bear, I was not as scared as I was at that time, because it was Section Chief Wang who crawled out from under the quilt! His face was pale, and a low growl kept coming out of his throat, as if he still wanted to find me, and the quilt was rudely thrown aside by him... I was lying on the tree and trembling all over. Section Chief Wang didn't look like a normal human being at all. Lao Li carefully climbed to the other side of the tree, grabbed a handful of hay from somewhere and handed it to me, and said softly, "I'll lure him away in a while, and you take this opportunity to light these things in the fire."

The appearance of the pile of grass could not be seen clearly under the moonlight, but the smell was very familiar. It was actually a common weed around our camp.Looking at the grass in my hand, I couldn't help being a little dazed, and asked, "Old Li, what's wrong with him?" Lao Li shook his head and said, "I don't know." From the morning on, everything seems to be under Lao Li's control. Unknowingly, my every move seems to be based on his face.But at this juncture, he said "I don't know" to perfunctory me.My head was suddenly filled with anger. The current situation clearly shows that he and I are on the same boat, but he still hides it everywhere.

According to my previous temperament, I would have already exploded on the spot in such a situation, but I glanced at Section Chief Wang who was looking for me everywhere, and all the anger was suppressed back to the bottom of my heart——Saving my life is the most important thing.What's more, if we fight among ourselves now, we will be the ones who suffer! I gave a slight "hmm" to express my understanding, then I grabbed the hay in my hand and moved my body aside.Lao Li also seemed to see my dissatisfaction. He hesitated for a moment, sighed softly, and jumped off the tree.
