Chapter 130 The Rainy Night (04)

The entire canopy was opened again by the huge force of Ma Zhong. Ma Zhong disappeared from their field of vision with a yell. His voice was full of fear and despair. The incident happened so suddenly that no one was prepared for it. A Si Xuanyi who reacted didn't even think about it, he almost rushed out. He tried to grab Ma Zhong, but the speed of the thing was too fast, and he had no chance to touch even a piece of Ma Zhong's clothes. horn.

"Damn it..." Rhodes firmly grasped Si Xuanyi's trousers. If he hadn't reported that Si Xuanyi would have fallen straight down.

Si Xuanyi was hanging upside down in the air and shaking violently. There was darkness all around him. The rain fell on his body and face. Suddenly a gust of wind blew in. He subconsciously hid to the side, but he forgot that he was in midair, and It was very inconvenient to move up and down, the whole person just twisted to the side and got hit hard on the back, the huge force directly made him fly, the whole person turned sideways a few meters away and plunged into another The canopy on one side crashed and tumbled between the branches and fell down...

The people above didn't react at all, Rhodes had only one trouser leg left in his hand, and Li Siming, who was going to help him, was sent flying before Li Siming could use his skills.

"Help me." Liang Rong yelled from behind, she hadn't seen Si Xuanyi fall, Rhodes leaned down and looked down in the endless darkness, but couldn't see anything, only heard a crisp sound of branches breaking down the tree ...

"Damn it." Li Siming took out the rope and threw it to Rhodes, then threw the whole roll of rope down, grabbed the rope and jumped down.

Rhodes exclaimed and quickly fell back while grabbing the rope. He tried to use his own weight to balance the weight of Li Siming's fall, but he forgot that this was a tree, and his feet were a mixture of intertwined branches and vines. It's no problem to bear their weight, but he absolutely can't help tossing like this. Those seemingly strong branches that went down from his buttocks were directly pierced by him, and his whole body disappeared almost instantly, leaving only a big hole in it.

Rhodes was not prepared at all, and fell completely unexpectedly, but his hands were still tightly grasping the rope. During the process of falling, he could feel his body knocking over things constantly, and there was darkness all around him. Before he could react, there was a sharp pain in his palm, and the rope got stuck on something.

"Bang bang bang..." There was a sudden burst of gunfire below, not far away, but he couldn't see the gun flame, not even a flash of light. It was the sound of an M1911 pistol. I don't know who fired it. But as long as you can shoot back, it proves that someone is still alive.

Rhodes grabbed the rope to control his body that was swinging left and right. He didn't know how high he was above the ground. He couldn't feel anything other than the branches hitting his face constantly. The darkness was in a mess, and an inexplicable fear quickly rose from the bottom of my heart and spread to every pore in my body.

"Can anyone hear it?" Rhode asked loudly, calming down.

"Shut up." Li Siming's voice came from an unknown direction, not far away.

"What's wrong? How are you?" Rhodes asked, he couldn't understand what Li Siming said.

"Don't talk, there's something nearby." Li Siming couldn't understand what Rhodes said, but Rhodes' yelling made him annoyed, but then he remembered the problem of the language barrier between the two, so he hurriedly booed a few times, which made Rhodes shut up mouthed.

It wasn't until it became quiet that Rhodes focused on his ears. Perhaps his ears became more sensitive because he couldn't see the surrounding situation. Through the sound of rain, he vaguely heard some strange sounds, as if something was passing through the canopy. The rubbing sound seemed to be the sound of the wind blowing the leaves. At first he thought it was the sound of rain, but soon he realized that it was not the case. The thing was hovering nearby. It should be in the canopy of the tree, and the distance seemed not too far. I know what it is, but judging from the intensity of the sound, it should be quite big.

"Bang bang bang..." There were gunshots from below, not only Ma Zhong or Si Xuanyi, but neither of them made any sound. I don't know if it was because of their situation and their own kind, or they had encountered other troubles.

Rhodes grabbed the branches around him and quickly touched a thick tree trunk. He hurriedly climbed up and tied the rope to it, so that Li Siming at the other end would not lose his balance and fall because of his departure.

After stabilizing his body, Rhodes held onto a branch with one hand to fix his body and drew out his bayonet for guarding. In this kind of place where close combat may occur at any time, a knife is more advantageous than a gun. Although he can't see anything, there is always no sense of security with empty hands. , although holding a knife may not be of much use, but at least it can strengthen your courage.

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, and a gleam of light pierced through many obstacles and fell into the huge canopy where he was. In a trance, he saw a huge figure moving slowly in the dense canopy, but the shadow disappeared again in just a split second. Into the absolute darkness, he didn't see what it was, but the thing definitely brought him a lot of shock, he was very afraid that the thing would suddenly appear in front of him when the next lightning flashed, but he didn't know what it was. There was no way, he couldn't do anything in such a dark place.

"Da da da..." A stern gunshot came from above his head, not from the direction Li Siming spoke just now, it should be... Liang Rong, is she in trouble?Rhodes wants to help, but he can't see anything now, and he doesn't even know his real name when he climbs up, so he really can't do what he wants.

The gunfire lasted for a while before it stopped. It was obvious that a clip had been emptied, and there was no more movement after that.

This is really troublesome. The five people are completely separated. Ma Zhong may have been taken away by the thing that sneaked up on him. Si Xuanyi doesn't know where he landed. Although Li Siming is not far away, he doesn't know the exact location. The situation on Rong's side is unclear. Rhodes knows that he can't just stay here and do nothing, but he doesn't know what else he can do.

In a trance, he felt something touched his face. At first he thought it was rain, but soon found that the thing was moving, and he quickly reached out to touch it. It turned out to be a strand of wet hair. He was so frightened that his whole body trembled like an electric shock. In his panic, he swung his knife to slash at that thing, but his hands trembled almost at the same time. The knife hit something that made his jaw go numb, and he was about to strike again. , but the knife seemed to be tightly held by something, no matter how hard he pulled it, he couldn't pull it back. Just when he put on the other hand and exerted force at the same time, his body suddenly lost his balance and he fell backwards. He didn't know how many branches were broken during the impact. He scratched around in the air trying to find an opportunity to weaken the momentum of his fall, but all failed. Just when he was about to continue working hard, he hit his head heavily on something and passed out. .

I don't know how long it took Rhodes to wake up, the surroundings are still dark, the rain doesn't know when it stopped, and the sound of dripping water can be heard occasionally, the surroundings are silent outside the first time, the silence is a bit scary, he has a kind of It was an illusion of dreaming, but the severe pain in his body told him that it was definitely not as simple as dreaming. It took him a while to connect this darkness with what happened before.

Rhodes moved only to realize that he was lying on a thick branch, with his belly hanging on the branch. He held onto the trunk and groped to get up, but his body hurt so badly that he couldn't use any strength. The whole body hurt as if every inch was broken, making him dizzy. I couldn't check the extent of my injuries, let alone the black lights.

He didn't get transferred to the tree. Rhodes felt that he was too lucky. Their camp was on the canopy more than 30 meters above the ground. After a toss with Li Siming before, he fell at most a dozen meters. That is to say, if he fell just now The place where he came down was at least fifteen or six meters above the ground. If it weren't for this branch, he might have been smashed into a pie.

After struggling and continuing, he found that he really didn't have the strength to get up. In desperation, he had to close his eyes and hang there motionless. Although this position was very uncomfortable, he didn't have the strength to change his state now, so he could only stay like this for now. Use this to recover your strength, and then think of other ways.

With the lessons learned from the past, Rhodes didn't dare to make a sound, and no one knew if the thing was still nearby. Judging from the huge figure, it should be easier to slap him to death than to slap a bug.

After a while, after gathering some strength, he pushed the slippery tree trunk and flew with a lot of strength to straighten himself. He rode on the branch for a long time before he recovered. He wanted to open his mouth and shout , but dare not, the ghost knows what is in this darkness, he even feels that his panting is too loud and harsh, he can only lean on the tree trunk to try to calm his breathing, he can't see anything in this darkness, But it doesn't mean that you can't see other things. This is Savage Mountain, and there may be any weird things.

He touched it with his hands, and there are still dense branches nearby. If this is the case, according to his memory when he climbed the tree yesterday, the branches began to grow at a height of about [-] or [-] meters, and they were at a place close to [-] or [-] meters. He became stronger, which meant that he should be at least fifteen or sixteen meters above the ground.

He felt around his body, and there was nothing to defend himself except a pistol. The Thompson submachine gun disappeared when it was dropped for the first time. He pulled out the pistol and opened the safety. His hands were tightly intertwined, and if he lost his only weapon, he would have to wait for death.Just when he was about to do something more, something fell heavily on his head, and he felt dizzy from the severe pain, lost his balance again and fell from the branch...
