Ghost Blowing Lamp II

Chapter 10 Chop the palm and gouge out the gallbladder ([-])
The dead thousand-year-old tree looks very strange, because the tree is not in harmony with the surrounding environment. Although it is not the middle of winter, the early snowfall turns the whole forest into a silvery white world. The only thing is that there is no snow near this big tree, and the tree hole is full of precious matsutake and various pickles. When I first saw the big hole in the trunk, I thought it was a bear hole, but it was closer , I didn't smell the stench of fishy show, so I couldn't help becoming suspicious.

I was about to ask Swallow why there is no snow near the dead tree hole, Swallow saw that I was going to speak, and waved at me quickly: "Be quiet, this is a bear cave. Human bears are stupid, but they are good at building nests, unlike the bears." Generally, the dens of blind bears are smelly and damp." Because the bear cave is hot, there is no snow around the old tree, and there are so many matsutake piled up around the dead tree hole without snow, which is sure on the surface. It's a bear den.Seeing that the swallow had figured out the location of the bear cave, I didn't dare to speak. I gestured and pointed to a grass nest nearby, and the three of them sneaked over to prepare for the bear hunt.

Hunting a killer bear in the mountains is the most dangerous thing. It needs the courage and courage to face the killer bear directly. The hunters usually dare not touch the bear. In order to survive, you can make a living by shooting a fox and shooting a rabbit, so why bother to do those activities that put you to death and survive, it is really impossible to stand up and take risks.

Now we are going to take the risk of hunting bears. The method has been discussed. It is based on the old method handed down by the ancestors of the hunters in the mountains. "Skin wonton" is called "hudun tao"; hunting bears with sticky bean buns is called "sticky tao".Although the snow has not disappeared, the climate in the mountains is not too cold. The large quantities of yellow rice noodle sticky bean buns we carry into the mountains are all wrapped tightly with warm dog skin mattresses, and they are not frozen, which saves some unnecessary food. Trouble.

I took out a few sleeves made of birch and handed them to the fat man, and said to him: "Comrade Wang Kaixuan, the time has come for you to be tested organizationally. Go ahead." The performance in the historical period, as well as your own objective conditions, you are more suitable than me to complete this arduous and glorious task, I think you should go, Lao Hu, I will protect you from behind."

The swallow said: "Don't argue, this job can't be done by one person alone. The fat man is thick and strong, suitable for bait. The beard is steady, and I will take the ax and look for opportunities by the tree hole. Don't panic, and you must not be soft-handed when you strike, you have to be dead, if the momentum is wrong, we will run away, and you must not go straight when running for your life..."

We were in the grass nest far away from the bear cave, discussing how to do it, but just halfway through the conversation, I felt the red pine behind me shake violently. The tree, nothing else, but the tree is indeed shaking slightly, is it an earthquake?Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the big red pine tremble violently again, the needles and leaves and the snow hanging on the branches fell down one after another, as if some huge object was about to move on the tree.

Looking up, it was amazing. It turned out that a huge long-haired human bear was lying on the red pine. It lowered its head and looked at us with blood-red eyes. Red eyes and long arms , and sharp claws, all show its identity. This is the most terrifying "killer bear" among human bears. People in the mountains say that after a human bear eats human brains, its eyes will turn red, and then it will not want to eat anything. , wants to eat human flesh all day long, but in fact the red-eyed human bear has become more violent and ferocious than usual due to the seasonal disorder.

The human bear hugged the trunk tightly with both arms on the top of the tree. The red pine hugged by several people trembled under the weight of the bear. I don't know why, it can only go up the tree but not down the tree, it can only let go and fall directly, usually it climbs to the top of the tree, and then falls from the tree, repeatedly, this is its usual entertainment, You can also practice its simple and healthy brute force and polish its thick skin.

We were stunned by this situation. We just paid attention to the movement in the cave of the dead tree bear. We never thought that although it snowed in the mountains, the season was out of order, and the man-bear hadn't been wintering in the cave day and night, and the man-bear suddenly found out. There was a person under the tree, eager to eat people's brains, and when he got anxious, he seemed to have forgotten how to get down the tree usually, and kept dangling around the trunk of the tree.

Although the red pine is thick, it can't support the tossing of a man-bear. After a few shakes, it broke apart with a "cracking" sound. At this time, the three of us recovered from the shock and hurried away Dodging, I saw the human bear wrapped in the pine branches and fell heavily to the ground. The snow on the ground was stirred up into a white snow mist. Even scratching and piercing was painful, and the roaring sound shook the pine forest.

We wore thick clothes, and our actions were extremely clumsy. We rolled down on the spot to avoid the broken pine tree, and the equipment for hunting the bear was scattered all over the ground. Injured, he jumped up violently, standing upright and pounced on the fat man closest to him.

The fat man was unprepared, and he was the first to face the murderous giant bear. His usual fearless spirit of "having the five continents in mind and looking at the whole world" was gone at this time, and he was rolling and crawling in the snow just thinking Running away, flustered, before taking a step, he fell on the snow again.

When he got up again, the man-bear had already pounced in front of him, and with a swipe of his paw, the padded jacket on the back of the fat man bloomed. Fortunately, he still remembered the bear-hunting technique in his panic, and grabbed the birch jacket that rolled down beside him. But as soon as he turned around, he was immediately held down by the human bear. After the human bear jumped on the person, he squinted his eyes with joy. The next thing he used to do was to lick the person's head with his tongue full of barbs. Suck the brains and blood of living people.

Some hunters said that man bears did this not because they were greedy for human blood and brains, but because they thought that people are so good-looking?The skin is smooth and smooth, so it smiled and stretched out its tongue to lick it. No matter what its motives were, a living person would be put back to its place after being licked by it. Seeing that the fat man was in danger, I grabbed the hunting fork on the ground and planned to rush Go up and save people.

At this time, the swallow also climbed up from the snow, saw the bear wrapping the fat man, and yelled to remind him: "Use the birch sleeve to get out!" The fat man was hugged by the bear, and his bones were almost broken. Seeing that the human bear squinted its eyes and opened its mouth wide, and licked it with its tongue, he was almost suffocated by the foul smell in its mouth, but he also knew very well that it was a matter of life and death. Put the tube between his head and the bear's tongue, and the bear's hot, big tongue licked the wooden tube immediately, and a large piece of bark was immediately taken down by its tongue. The sleeves were all stuffed into the man-bear's arms, and he took the opportunity to get out.
