Of Mountains and Rivers

The most terrifying thing at this time is chaos, but the most beneficial thing is also chaos.

Under the gate of the mountain, there are Mutai rolling on the ground with their eyes covered. The flat people have suffered countless injuries just because they were crushed to death by the monsters they raised. Already out of order, the dark Mutai was completely out of control, scurrying across the hills and fields like a bunch of mindless cockroaches.

The sound beast and the eye-eater began to scratch each other. The sound beast was blinded by the eye-eater, and screamed in pain. Because it really hurt, the wail was very sincere. Although the eye-eater had thick skin, there were no eardrums. The armor was swept away by waves of sound waves, and the already muddy brain became even more dizzy, and began to spin around in place.

There are also countless wild animals, large and small, rolling around under the mountain gate, as if infected with rabies collectively, no matter what obstacles they encounter, all their claws and claws are on the line.

In this way, compared to the time when Bian Pianren led a large number of Mutai to encircle the mountain, although the individual combat capabilities of this group of enemies were unfathomable, they seemed quite disorganized and undisciplined.

Before reaching the mountain gate, they had already pinched themselves.

But after all, the environment here is dangerous and the situation is complicated. Although the monsters have serious internal conflicts, they share the same strange goal-to rush up the mountain even if they die.

They slammed into the mountain gate like thousands of horses crossing a single tree.

Once the instinct of any creature explodes, its combat power is unparalleled.

Ruge, the patriarch of the Gatekeeper, fights 360 days a year, 360 days a year. He has a lot of experience. In addition, the Mountainkeeper's help is huge. They quickly prepared several batches of boulders, and put them on the mountain gate full of fluorescent bones. The next wave of smashing down.

All of a sudden, there was a turmoil, and the strong smell of blood made people almost breathless. Even so, those monsters and beasts continued to rush forward, fearless of death.

Waves of monsters climbed to the mountain gate and were hacked and killed by people with bare hands, but how could they be killed cleanly?

There is a wave of ups and downs at the moment, and another wave rises again.

The manpower is exhausted, and for several hours in a row, even if you swing an empty knife, your hands are about to break from exhaustion.

At sunset that day, the largest wave of beasts arrived at the gate of the mountain.

The eye-eater was slightly slower in speed, and the two monsters gradually separated in the mutual pinch. The sound beast quickly threw the eye-eater far away and began to attack the mountain gate.

That giant reptile, not snake, lizard not lizard, could shake the heavens with a loud roar, and the long-distance earplugs were still effective, but the sonic attack could not be resisted in the face-to-face situation, and it swept across the surrounding area in an instant.

A flat film man was knocked to death by his crazy Mutai mount against the wall. When Chu Huan was blindfolded, he inadvertently groped across the rock with his palm, and immediately rubbed a hand of brains.

But he no longer cared about cleanliness.

The taste of multiple sound beasts in close-range surround sound is not something he can bear with a crispy dog. After a short time, Chu Huan had the illusion that he had just been in a car accident. His head hurt sharply and his sense of balance suffered. After the same destruction, the hearing was severely reduced, and the whole person could not keep up with the rhythm, whether it was intuition or reaction speed.

Chu Huan suspects that if this continues, under the tempering of various extreme environments, he will eventually evolve from a mortal body to a superhuman Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten or killed.

The last time a few of them escaped from the encirclement of monsters, they almost escaped death. This time, the mission goal is even more stringent. In the entire mountain, the mountain gate is the only checkpoint, so they must not retreat. If they take a step back, they will never be able to move forward again. Recover, then they will face an unimaginable desperate situation.

After Chu Huan realized this problem, he suddenly pulled down his blindfold with all his might—since he was a Jedi, he had no choice but to put all his eggs in one basket.It is useless to wait for time as carefully as before. They have no backup, and now they can only fight the enemy to the death - and no matter how strong a person is, how can they survive these rough-skinned and thick-skinned monsters?

A leading sound beast was astonishingly huge, almost like a tyrannosaurus rex. The moment Chu Huan took off the blindfold, it was already less than ten steps away from Chu Huan, biting a gatekeeper in the middle. Hold on, hold it high.

The cloth earplug in one of Chu Huan's ears was soaked with his own blood and stuck inside, and he was almost deaf to the surrounding sounds, but he still felt that he heard the sound of "creaking"—that was the sound of Li The teeth crushed bones.

The gatekeeper must have been dead, his face was covered with smoke, dust and blood, and he could no longer see what he looked like. The long knife in his hand fell to the ground, kicking up a piece of floating soil, which almost covered Chu Huan's eyes.

Except for Yuan Ping, Chu Huan didn't have close contact with the gatekeeper clan. He himself didn't like to join the crowd, and he always felt that the "mountain spirits" who crawled out of these holy springs were just like their leaders, treating others indifferently. cold.

There were not many gatekeepers he could recognize, but at this moment, he recognized the knife that fell on the ground.

There was a small arc like a mark on the handle of the knife, which he had seen before—it was held by the young man who led him to fetch water the day Nanshan was injured.

Chu Huan hadn't had time to find out what his name was.

Chu Huan leaned over to pick up the long knife, the blade was too heavy for his hand, he had to use two hands to pick it up, a Mutai who was driven crazy by the roar of the sound beast just jumped up behind him, Chu Huan turned sideways abruptly , the hilt of the knife swung hard, cutting the "mad dog" out horizontally, and then he stepped on a huge rock in front of him, took off in three steps, and the landing point was all accurate, and finally his toes stepped on a huge rock in front of him. Jumped down from the trunk of a big tree with gnarled roots.

The blade slashed across the teeth of the Great Sound Beast, and Chu Huan pressed hard with both arms. There was a grinding sound between the cold iron and the steel teeth, and the beast had a man in its mouth. Chu Huan broke open a slit, and just this one was loose, Chu Huan mercilessly sent in a blade nearly one and a half meters long, and immediately opened the mouth of the sound beast, and blood spurted out three to four meters high. , covering the surrounding area in this stinky rain of blood.

The steel knife shook violently, Chu Huan could no longer hold the handle of the knife, and his luck seemed to be bad. When the sound beast fell to the ground with a crash, his head hit a stone. For a few seconds, his vision went dark and he almost lost consciousness.

A hide-and-seek man approached quietly, with a pair of sinister eyes open, tiptoeing to touch the short knife at Chu Huan's waist. The ground bit the flat piece man's throat, the snake venom sealed the throat with blood, and the moment the big snake let go, the flat piece man who was trying to fish in troubled waters was almost dead.

Ruge wiped the blood on his hand, raised his hand and touched the snake's head, looked at Chu Huan with complicated eyes, and took care of a few Mutai for him.

Chu Huan had already recovered after being rubbed against the cold body of the poisonous snake. He was slightly conscious, but he didn't have time to see who the person next to him was.

Top-heavy, he climbed up with the handle of the knife stretched out by the other party, and thanked vaguely.

Ruge snorted something from his nose, but Chu Huan couldn't hear clearly with his plugged ears.

The little poisonous snake that used to carry a wooden bird on horseback has finally grown into a half-sized poisonous snake. Although it does not have the ability to carry a person on its head like its predecessors, it is as tall as half a person when it is straightened up. Aggressive actions can also look quite bluffing.

Ruge glanced at Chu Huan, stepped forward, leaned over and picked up the sound beast's head that had been half-turned off by Chu Huan, and raised his chin slightly as a gesture.

Chu Huan saw what he was going to do at a glance, and immediately stepped forward to help him grab the long tail of the sound beast.

The patriarch of the gatekeeper was so powerful that he turned the sound beast over, picked up the handle of the long knife that was stuck in the head of the sound beast by Chu Huan, and bore most of the weight of the little Tyrannosaurus rex. There is still one hand left to open the way with a weapon - if he had left it outside, he would probably be a person who can break the Guinness record by "pulling a truck with bare hands".

When the others saw it, they immediately followed suit and carried the huge corpse of the monster to the entrance of the mountain gate.

After such a night, the mountain gate has been filled with thick corpses.

In spring, people brought barrels of oil from the top of the mountain, climbed up and poured them outside the mountain gate, and threw a few torches down, and the flames suddenly shot up into the sky.

Until this time, after a day and night of hard fighting, people were able to breathe for a while amidst the mountains of corpses.

Chu Huan leaned against a rock and slid down softly. The blood in his ear had clotted and he couldn't pull it off after a few tugs. He said in his heart, "Isn't it deaf?"

Chu Huan grabbed one side of the cloth head, and when he was about to tear it forcefully, someone suddenly grabbed his wrist.Nan Shan knelt beside him, carefully tore off the loose cloth from the dried blood bit by bit.

Chu Huan breathed a sigh of relief, because he felt a little sound during the rubbing process—not yet deaf.

Then, a thin stream of air flowed into his ear, and he carefully explored the injured place inside. When he reached the stinging place, although Chu Huan didn't make a sound, he was shocked and couldn't help but tilt his head slightly. After judging the location of the wound, he took out a small bottle of liquid medicine from his arms, carried the tiny drop of liquid medicine with the same gentle airflow, and sent it to the wound.

Sha panicked, Chu Huan couldn't help frowning.

Nanshan carefully wiped off all the blood on the side of his face, and he found that Chu Huan was like this, as long as it was really painful, even if he fainted from the pain, he would be silent, and most of the screams were fake.

Nanshan thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized that Chu Huan must have a very serious and awkward side in his innate personality, but he probably felt that at his age, he shouldn't have so many He is so hypocritical, so he deliberately put on an appearance of no taboos.

Probably something is missing to install something?Nanshan thought so, after a big battle, his anger that was ignited by Chu Huan disappeared. Seeing Chu Huan leaning on the stone, frowning and closing his eyes to rest, Nanshan's heart suddenly softened.

"Where is there any injury?"

Chu Huan shook his head, slowly slid down the stone, hugged Nanshan's waist sideways, and pillowed it on his waist and abdomen, and remained motionless.

Nan Shan slowly withdrew his hand and hugged him for a while, savoring the tranquility of this moment in silence amidst the roar of monsters and the pile of corpses.

But it didn't take long for Chu Huan to remember something. He withdrew his hand in a hurry like a corpse, raised it in a gesture of surrender, sat up straight with a wooden face, and coughed dryly: "I'm sorry, I I accidentally rubbed my brain with one hand just now, it seems that it hasn't been washed yet."

Nanshan didn't know how to reply to this sentence. After a while, he looked down. Although he was covered in goose bumps, he still said, "...it doesn't matter, it's done."

The two looked at each other for a moment, and finally couldn't help laughing out exhaustedly together.

There was a "bang" sound from behind, and probably another wave of monsters broke through the encirclement of the raging fire, and slammed into the mountain gate hard.

Xiaofang next to him said to Yuan Ping, "Guess what it is? I guess it's an eye-eater."

Yuan Ping: "I bet on Sound Beast."

The two dirty monkeys were talking, and one of them took a small stone and put it in front of him, with a serious look on his face about to gamble.

Xiaofang: "What are you betting on?"

Yuan Ping: "Gamble on the peerless magic weapon."

Xiaofang said honestly, "I don't have one, do you have one?"

"..." Yuan Ping thought for a while, "Then bet on a basket of coconut-flavored pan-fried buns!"

Xiaofang scratched her bloody hair: "What the hell is that?"

Yuan Ping sighed: "...Okay, if I win, help me steal Chu Huan's barbecue rack."

Chu Huan interjected lazily: "Then who, Crispy Dog isn't deaf yet, and besides, you can't even cook instant noodles, so why use a barbecue rack?"

Yuan Ping turned around: "Get out, talk about your love, don't spread rumors... ah!"

I saw the poisonous snake Xiaolu crawling over silently at some point, propping up a big triangular head, spitting out a snake letter, looking at Yuan Ping curiously, and almost had an intimate kiss with him.

The situation was so horrifying that Yuan Ping's brain cells were so frightened that they stopped working collectively on the spot. When he realized it, he had jumped three feet high in front of the crowd, and rushed out while rolling and crawling. Ge stretched out a pale and bloody hand to stop him before he stood still.

Luge has been at the forefront, one eye was injured by the eye-eater, and the poisonous blood has been expelled at this time, and he is covering the wound with a leaf.

He looked at Yuan Ping inexplicably, and asked curiously, "Are you afraid of snakes?"

Yuan Ping felt that the tone of the head of the family was like asking "How could you be afraid of earthworms?" His face felt overwhelmed, and he forced himself to say: "Of course you are not afraid!"

Luge probably thought it was funny, and although his face was full of blood and tears, he said with a half-smile, "Really?"

While speaking, Xiaolu crawled over without knowing what to do, took Yuan Ping's leg as a big pillar, and climbed up calmly.

Yuan Ping's face turned green at that time, and his whole body became a zombie, only the legs of his trousers were trembling indistinctly, obviously frightened to the extreme.

The gatekeeper was born with the spirit of mountains and waters, and was born with the consciousness of the mountains. How could the mountains be afraid of the birds and beasts in the mountains?

The gatekeeper who is afraid of snakes is unprecedented, but Xiaolu likes him quite a bit, spitting letters, and licking him non-stop.

Yuan Ping stuck his neck, like a woman from a good family who had been molested, with a bleak look on her face, which made a circle of gatekeepers and mountain guards mess up.

Chu Huan commented harshly: "Bear-like."

He seemed to feel that he was a little more heroic under Yuan Ping's comparison, so he sat upright and asked Nanshan: "What's the matter? When we came back from the mountain tour, we cleaned up the little white flowers in the water. Didn’t the beasts already move downstream? Why did they suddenly run up the mountain?”

Nanshan was silent for a moment: "The eye-eaters reacted very slowly. According to their reaction... the fall should have approached the foot of the mountain."

Chu Huan: "Then I'm afraid I won't be able to leave?"

Nanshan lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Chu Huan glanced around secretly, and found that everyone was having as much fun as possible during the short break, playing with Yuan Ping with poisonous snakes, and no one paid attention to them, so he reached out and clasped the back of Nanshan's hand, holding it in his palm. After a while: "Since I can't even leave, then we are reconciled?"

Nanshan sighed helplessly: "When is it, you still have the mood to think about these..."

Chu Huan was not only in the mood to think, when he heard this, his waist felt sore and his back hurt, and his heart was full of joy. Just as he was about to fish over Nanshan and touch it enough, he remembered that his claws and brains were full, so he shrank back embarrassingly. Hands: "I'd better go wash my hands."

After he finished speaking, he stood up, intending to find water, but Nanshan suddenly stopped him, and asked mysteriously, "Did you really jump off the cliff by yourself?"

Chu Huan paused, raised one eyebrow, and pretended to be suave and said: "Tsk, you really believe it—how is that possible?"

Nanshan showed a somewhat helpless smile, with a clear expression of "If you say no, then you are", he kept seeing Chu Huan as if he had fled.

Only then did Nanshan dig out the brave ring that had been in the wind and fire from the place next to his body, wiped his finger carefully, and put the ring back on his hand.

There was laughter not far away, Nanshan looked up, shook his head, blew a long whistle, summoned Xiaolu, and rescued Yuan Ping, only to see the snake rubbing its head against his The hands, somewhat dog-like in shape, don't look intimidating at all.

Nan Shan bent his eyes and smiled: "Don't bully people."

He suddenly calmed down in his heart—as calm as when he never met Chu Huan many years ago, probably because he knew that there was no room left at this time, and all they could do was to try their best to find that front line. vitality.

It was only then that Nanshan realized that the "hope" he had been talking about so brazenly had been left in his confusion for a long time without knowing it, and when he thought about it, he felt a little ashamed.

At this moment, the ground suddenly sounded like a thunderous "rumbling sound".

The people who were still alive all stood up, and the faint smile on the corner of Luge's mouth had not had time to put it away, and the brows had already begun to look serious.

He stretched out a finger to answer a gatekeeper's question, listened intently for a moment, and then suddenly turned to the direction of the mountain gate.

Nanshan: "What?"

"The mountain gate... the mountain gate is about to close." Ruger said in disbelief.

Every year before the gate is turned upside down, it will be closed for three days. At this time, the gate will send the gatekeepers to another world, which is their only rest time throughout the year-but it is obviously not the time when it should be closed normally.

The mountain of corpses blocking the mountain gate collapsed in an instant, the earth shook and the mountains swayed, and huge rocks rose from the ground. If a natural barrier tightly sealed the entrance of the mountain, people on the mountain could only hear it. The sound of wild beasts hitting the rocks in vain outside, but everything has been sealed by the big stone gate that blocks the sky and the sun.

Ruge's face was surprised at first, and then he couldn't help showing a trace of ecstasy. He stretched out his hand and pushed Yuan Ping suddenly: "Go to the inside of the mountain gate and see if the entrance at that end is open. Go!"

One side of the mountain gate is closed, and the other side must be opened—then the current situation, does it mean that they can find a way out in the Jedi, and collectively avoid the world on the other side?

That's really the case, will the dead end in the sinking land also...
