Chapter 98 Chapter 15 Reunion

"Why are the spiders backing away, look!" I couldn't help shouting, only to find that my strength had gradually recovered, and my shouting was a bit louder than before.It can be seen from this that I have been physically weak since I was a child, and after half a year of experience, I have already been reborn, although diving sickness is not so easy to deal with. The old curator Zha obviously realized that we were up there, but in order to drive away the cave spiders, he had to ignore us for the time being.The screams of the beasts made the cave spiders start to disperse, but a few stubborn cave spiders still clung to the old curator Zha.Not long after, the cave spiders ran for their lives and burrowed into the cracks and holes in the rocks. I couldn't help but wonder, would this huge cave collapse in the spider's lair on a certain day in a certain year?There is an exit of more than ten meters at the other end of the cave hall. I guess there is another sinkhole ambushing us at the end.The tinnitus continued, and I could hear the sound of rapids from the entrance of the cave, which was crisp and pleasant.However, I feel that the sound of the torrent is not real, just like the sound of the real Qin sounded just now, although the sound is clear, but it has a feeling of being processed, it seems to have the same computer effects as the current CD records Effect.

When I was still puzzled by Erzhang Monk, a thing the size of a strong cow jumped up from the opposite hole.During this period of time, Xinhong and I have become familiar with monster-like things, and now we are eager to see what it looks like, but Sister Yu gasped.She has always said that there are lunatics in the mountains, but now that she sees the unusual beast, her heart is naturally ups and downs.I instinctively shone the flashlight, thinking that I could use its light to frighten away unknown beasts. To my surprise, not only was this strong bull-like beast not frightened by the light, but it was chasing the cave spider as if nothing had happened.If such a big thing ran up, wouldn't it give up if it didn't gnaw all the old curator's bones clean?Let alone helping, we don't even have the strength to escape!

Generally, there are few large beasts in caves with human activities, and only caves in remote mountains and old forests with few people can hide these things.Although the hills and mountains here are not far or close to the village, the villagers do not often step into the mountains, so it is not surprising that there are dire cats and such beasts in the caves.This beast is probably not a real cave creature, and it is reasonable that it is not afraid of light.In this way, even if the old curator Zha is not killed by the cave spider, he will soon become the meal of the beast. As soon as the beast jumped into the cave, it chased the cave spiders and devoured them greedily. There are tens of thousands of spiders in the cave. I think even two beasts of this size can burst their stomachs. , maybe the old curator Zha can avoid this catastrophe.The beast didn't even want to look at the old curator. It had been devouring the cave spider bit by bit.Thinking about how the old curator Zha hurriedly avoided the cave spider just now, but now the cave spider is running for his life in a hurry, the world is really changing.The beast ate all the way, and when it approached our side, we gradually saw it clearly.The beast was red all over, its dense hair was like the needles of a prickly pear, and its head was so twisted that I couldn't figure out how to describe its face after watching it for a long time.

"What is this?" Sister Yu asked in horror, panting. "I haven't seen it, who knows what it is?" I didn't know how to answer myself. "It seems to be eating spiders all the time, without even looking at the old curator!" Xinhong said in confusion. This red beast is indeed very strange, and it is a thousand miles away from our imagination. It reminds me of the anteater, which mainly lives in Central and South America.The old curator Zha was stunned for a long time before he thought of running to our side. He staggered and walked over, and deliberately trampled to death many huge cave spiders on the way.We knew that the old curator Zha was coming, so we kept lighting him to prevent him from tripping over the potholed road.The red beast ignored the walking curator Zha, it was still immersed in the delicious food of cave spiders, could it be that this red thing only likes to eat spiders, so when it roared, those cave spiders would run away in fright?

It was not easy for the old curator Zha to approach us, but I got into trouble.Our place is at least seven or eight meters away from the bottom. Can the old curator climb up? The slope here is nearly ninety degrees.We have no strength now, and we have no strength to jump to the bottom.The old curator Zha looked up at us excitedly and tiredly, and just when he was about to go under us, he suddenly fainted on the ground.When we saw it, we were very anxious.The old curator Zha was really unlucky. There happened to be a large puddle of water where he fainted, and it might be a big hole, because his head had already been submerged in the water.This is good, there is no danger at all, but now he is going to die in such a terrible way.We can't laugh or cry, of course crying should take up a little bit more, this is not the time for joking.

Everyone didn't have the strength to speak at first, but now the relaxed atmosphere suddenly became tense, so that no one was willing to speak.Xinhong and I desperately wanted to climb to the edge and then jump down, but in the end we only moved half a meter with all our strength.The most frightening thing was that bright red blood flowed from my ears, which made me feel cold all over. Could it be that I will become deaf immediately?The old curator Zha was already unconscious, his head was bubbling in the water, and after a while the bubbles disappeared.I kept cursing God in my heart, why did we always add bad luck to us, did we offend him?Just when we lost all hope and thought that the old curator Zha was going to die, the red beast stopped devouring the cave spider.It walked over slowly, and when it reached the place where the old curator Zha fell, it suddenly opened its bloody mouth.I thought, this is also good, it is better to be eaten by wild animals than to drown myself, so that I can still save some face when I go down to the underworld.Just now I was glad that the red beast didn't eat people, but only spiders. Who knew it was planning to save the big meal until the end.

We all closed our eyes, quietly waiting for the old curator Zha to finish his final journey.However, I still couldn't help opening half of my eyes slightly, wanting to see the situation.The red beast opened its mouth and bit the old curator Zha's body. I thought that the old curator would definitely die, but who knew that the red beast didn't swallow the old curator Zha in one bite, it just walked to us slowly, and then doubled up. Lifting his feet, he climbed onto the stone wall.The red beast was huge, and it just reached where we were with such a climb.I stared at it in horror, wondering if it was not satisfied after eating the old curator Zha, and wanted to swallow the three of us too, what a big appetite!Anyway, I'll die anyway, at most, I'll come here to seek revenge for it eighteen years later, so I close my eyes and wait for its bloody mouth to come.

I closed my eyes and felt a moment of silence, and then something heavy rolled to the ground.Opening my eyes curiously, I realized that the old curator Zha had fallen from the mouth of the red beast in front of us, and the beast just kept blowing at us.Regardless of being afraid of being surprised, I turned over the old curator Zha who was lying on the ground, and carefully checked his pulse and heartbeat. Although it was weak, it still had a steady rhythm. We were very happy that the old curator Zha was not dead! The red beast was still climbing. It deliberately put its head near us, and then slowly shook its head back and forth.I thought, isn't this the same action as the dog at home, do you want me to touch its head?I changed my mind again, couldn't it be, a fierce-looking thing would act like a pet?Anyway, as soon as it died, and it was not dead yet, I summoned up all my courage to reach out, and then gently stroked its thick head.Because the fur of this red beast is like the thorns of a prickly pear, I thought it was as hard as steel and would make me scream, but when I touched it, it was unexpectedly soft, so I couldn't help touching it for a while.

"What are you doing? Aren't you afraid it will bite you?" Sister Yu asked in a daze. "If it wanted to bite, it would have taken a bite already," I whispered, then turned my head and said to Xinhong, "You think so?" "En." Xinhong just responded to me weakly, and then looked at the beast in front of him. I was already weak and sore, and I lost the strength after touching it for a minute, so I simply put my hand down.Unexpectedly, I became addicted to touching the red beast, and as soon as I let it go, it climbed up the stone wall a few more times, and stretched its head even closer.It stretched out its head towards me reluctantly, and shook it from time to time. I couldn't bear it when I saw it, so I had no choice but to stretch out my hand to its head again.As soon as I stroked its head, it rubbed its hair on my arm coquettishly, which made me feel a little comfortable.

It turned out that this red beast didn't mean to hurt the old curator Zha, it just wanted to rescue the old curator Zha, otherwise we would have to burn more paper money to the old curator Zha.This is the first time we have encountered such a human and well-behaved beast. The ones we encountered before were all ready to eat people's hearts and drink human blood.The red beast also likes to act like a baby like a child. I think it looks ugly, but it is extremely cute. However, this beast is red, so I've been biting about it ever since I saw it.Like the world says.Red is a symbol of victory.Bright and dazzling, radiant.All birds and beasts, as long as a certain part of the head, mouth, body, tail, wings, and horns is dotted with red, it will add luster to it, increase its value, and win the favor of the world.However, animals with red bodies are rarely seen. Once they appear, they will cause a sensation and are listed as treasures in the animal world.

As far as I know, there are two places in China that have been found to have a considerable number of red animals.That is Hupingshan National Nature Reserve and Shennongjia, a mysterious place in Hubei.Thinking of this, I trembled all over. Although I have never been there, it has been confirmed that there is a kind of red snake there.This kind of snake is generally 50 to 70 centimeters, and the longest is eighty or ninety centimeters. Because it likes to be blocked on the sidewalk, passers-by sometimes encounter it.One year in the twelfth lunar month, a local farmer surnamed Tan suddenly saw a lump of red object wriggling on the road covered with thin ice.He looked intently and found that it was a group of red snakes twisted into one body. He was startled and dared not move forward rashly. After waiting for a while, the group of snakes separated and dispersed slowly.The news spread that the local people had a sense of mystery and fear of this snake, so the villagers would not disturb it.According to the introductions of men, women and children in this area, they have all seen this kind of snake. It has a triangular head, red body, does not move, and is very poisonous, but it never bites actively, so it is in a state of peaceful coexistence with the mountain people. .This kind of snake is similar to a kind of snake called "Three Roots of Blood" that can be found in the local area.Could it be that the red snake there is the Yinli Red we have encountered before? Could there be relics of the Hongya Clan in other places? There are many explanations for the rarity of red animals. The most common one is that red can cause other animals to attack, so all red animals became extinct over time.What species could this giant red beast be, and why is it hidden deep in the cave?It should not be a real cave creature, if it is, the hair and even the skin will be white, and the eyes will also degenerate.While I was stroking the red beast and contemplating my own guess, the red beast suddenly opened its mouth wide and roared at us in anger!
