Survival In the World of Beasts

Chapter 4: Stormy Night

In the middle of the night, Li Shizhao suddenly woke up and sat up. Maybe he knew the danger subconsciously, and he couldn't sleep deeply, but the feeling of waking up from a dream because of fear of fear was very bad.

The surrounding area was damp and cold. All the terrible howlings had disappeared, and there was only an ominous rustle in the bushes. Li Shizhen tightly held the wooden stick in his hand in fear, and hugged himself into a ball. It took a long time to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and he mustered the courage to stretch out his arm to add firewood and burn the fire more vigorously. Hearing the crackling of the firewood, it broke the frightening sound just now.

However, just when Li Shizhao was relieved to prepare to lie down again, a white light suddenly lit up in the sky. For a moment, the surroundings were as bright as day, but it also made Li Shizhao see a pair of eyes in the bushes not far away! A pair of eyes that are by no means human, or even beasts! Li Zhixun even hated his good eyesight at this time. At that moment, he not only saw a pair of yellow, cold and vertical pupils, but also saw the huge head and sharp dense teeth hidden under the branches and leaves like two rows of hacksaws. , Refracting cold light under bright light.

Li Zhizhen can even resemble that kind of teeth. If he bites his prey, he must not let the prey lose blood or suffocate like the long teeth of a cat, but rather tear off a piece of flesh from his body like a sawtooth, and he is still alive. The prey will clearly feel the pain of being torn off piece by piece. Thinking of this, his whole body shuddered, his blood flowed backwards, his hands and feet were cold, and his brain was completely blank.

When his consciousness came back again, he felt that he was screaming in fear, and his whole body was trembling. This was an instinct that he did not realize and had no way to control. The whole body was so frightened that he could only move away from fear. All the facial muscles shrank into a ball, pouring out all his fears from his mouth. Grasped by the huge fear, he couldn't make any other reactions at all.

However, he could not even hear his own voice, and the surrounding darkness fell again, but a rumbling thunder sounded, completely covering his voice.

The blast of thunder was completely different from the previous low and deep, as if to split something. It made Li Shizheng wake up suddenly, but it also made him clearly hear the crackling sound. It was the sound of his teeth fighting up and down, and his throat was also There was a searing pain like tearing, and the scream just now didn't know how much strength he used. Only then did he realize that the original fear had left his brain blank, completely unaware of what he was doing or what he had heard.

The bushes not far from the fire can no longer be seen clearly, and the various methods used to calm him down no longer work. He has no idea how many horrible things are lurking in the dense bushes around him. Monster, dangerous! Danger! Danger! Reason is also sending such terrible signals.

Heaven, it's going to rain.

Can't just wait and die like this! He didn't know the attacking habits of the unknown monsters, why they were lurking, how many animals there were around, and which direction they would come from. At least they were certain that they were also afraid of flames, so he felt calm. But at this time, the heartbeat was very fast, and the pulse of pulse was pounding in my ears, even overshadowing the sound of the wind, what it was, always felt very important, what did he forget, and why was he so scared and uneasy in his subconscious mind?

Wow—it's raining.

Li Shizhao was not exposed to any rain in the tent, but he clearly heard the crackling sound of the rain hitting his head. It was dense, fast and terrifying, like a prelude to some sort of hunting, which was frightening. He watched the water drop on the fire, and his heart was cold and dead.

However, afterwards, he was also surprised at his calmness, courage and decisiveness at this time.

He got up out of the tent, clenched the stick in his hand, didn't even try to save the bonfire, didn't even look at the movement in the bushes, just retreated to the big tree, the thing in the bush might be ambush Realizing his plan, he couldn't hold back anymore. With the last gleam of light before the fire went out, he clearly saw a huge black shadow attacking him, too soon! He didn't even have time to see what it was, so he picked up the stick, exhausted all his strength, and greeted him fiercely.

The sharp diamond-shaped stone on the wooden stick pierced into something, and he couldn't see anything in the darkness. He only felt that the weight of the wooden stick in his hand made him stagger under his feet, and he screamed like a piercing eardrum. It sounded in his ears, so close, his head seemed to be under the two rows of sharp teeth, he even clearly smelled the stench of heat from the beast's nose blowing from the top of his head. He clearly felt the great struggle from his hand. It seemed to want to get rid of the wooden stick to attack. Its sharp front paws seemed to keep scratching the fine wooden stick of the arm, making toothy noises. He could hardly grasp it, but he could only grit his teeth and maintain a squatting posture. His hind feet were firmly against the giant tree behind him. The wooden stick will never give it any possibility of close attack.

Jiji—

Jiji—

He heard a voice not far away, Nima, I'm afraid this thing still has a companion!

With a loud roar, he bent his leg and kicked the big tree behind him and pushed the monster away fiercely, releasing the stick in his hand. As if blessed by the gods, a flash of lightning lit up again. With this bright moment of heaven and earth, Li Shizhao definitely used all his motor cell speed to climb up the tree. Even if he was struck to death by lightning, he would never live to experience the feeling of being bitten into pieces.

The rushing rain poured down, wet his clothes all over, and the tree trunk became extremely slippery. He didn't dare to think about the consequences of a skater falling. The fight just now seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and he felt that his hands and feet were a little too weak. In another bright light, he clearly saw three upright monsters under the tree with their hind feet on the ground and their tails and sharp front claws. Oh my God, that was actually—! Before he was frightened, his pupils contracted sharply. One of them even kicked his hind legs fiercely. The tail fluttered and his mouth opened. He even leaped towards him. He even saw the sharp sharpness of the monster's wide open palate. Back teeth and scarlet tongue. He firmly grasped the branch above in a hurried gasp, quickly put his feet together and shrank into a ball in mid-air. In the sound of heavy rain, he clearly heard the sound of the teeth colliding when the monster was biting its jaws in mid-air. The sound of the rain couldn't be completely covered by the power of the monster. If the legs were not retracted in time, the bite was his own. Both feet are gone. It was too late to be afraid. In the late thunder, he turned over the branches with the power of swinging his hands and continued to climb up, even daring not to stop to wipe the rain on his face.

After a long time, maybe not too long, he felt that he had climbed under a branch that was high enough and then stopped.

There were multiple rapid, sharp screams under the tree. On the tall trees, without lightning, he couldn't see what was going on underneath. Don't those Deinonychus intend to abandon him at all and want to guard it? Yes, Deinonychus, if he hadn't seen a restored model of this creature in a museum, he would not have recognized it, at least in terms of appearance and features, it was very similar. While seeing the restoration model with emotion of this biological lethality, he would not have thought that he would have witnessed it with his own eyes and was hunted by it.

He should have thought about the hot and humid weather, the high oxygen content, and the large number of ferns and gymnosperms in the woods. Is this the Jurassic or the Cretaceous? I don't remember, he used to just treat it as something he didn't do anything to watch, how could he remember it. Then what looks like a giraffe on the grassland during the day is a brachiosaurus? The one flying in the sky is a pterodactyl or something similar. and many more! In addition to pterosaurs, there are birds of prey, either eagles or eagles. He is absolutely right! There are also a lot of angiosperms in the forest. Among the animals you have seen are snakes, birds, insects, and small animals that look like mammals. These things did not evolve in the Jurassic or Cretaceous!

He was completely confused, but laughed at himself again. Perhaps this is not the earth at all, the seasons can change, and the location can't change. How could he use things on earth to explain everything now. Maybe brachiosaurus, pterosaurs, and Deinonychus just evolved similarly, not necessarily exactly the same. Only one thing is certain, this place is really extremely dangerous. These various evolutions strongly illustrate one point-the competition for survival here is very fierce!

Putting on the hat of his coat, he rode on a tree branch and was trembling with cold, but he couldn't think of any way to keep him warm. Carefully took the schoolbag in front of him and took out the bread, he started eating bite by bite under the rain, maybe adding some calories would make him feel better.

The voice under the tree suddenly became anxious, and the sharp scream became more irritable and noisy, like a fight?

Li Zhizong trembled, and then his whole body was stupefied. It was not he was shaking at all just now, but the tree was shaking? What did it hit the tree? Is such a big tree trembling?

The sound of roaring, physical impact and even biting sounded into one piece, and it was impossible to distinguish anything in the rain curtain. After a long, sharp cry that broke everything, the tree became quiet again, so quiet that Li Zhizhu could only hear his own heartbeat except for the sound of rain. Was it his illusion? Why did he still seem to hear the chewing and biting sound in such a heavy rain, dripping with blood. He just sat quietly in the tree for half the night.

Dawn came again.

Li Shizhao looked at the red sun in the sky in a daze, and suddenly realized that he was still alive! No matter how long or terrible the night is, as long as you live, the sun will definitely rise, and perhaps you will be able to return to a familiar place again. Clenched a fist, Li Zhizhen, you are a man, live, live like a person, live well, come on!

Amidst the sneeze, Li Zhizhu jumped off the tree.

However, under the tree, the familiar wooden stick was stained with blood and broke into two pieces. The bones of the Deinonychus nearby were intact, and the entire spine was completely crushed. The predator was very picky, and the muscles were cut and eaten. , The bones were placed cleanly, the internal organs flowed all over but the heart was missing, and the white flesh and blood could be seen in the crushed spine. Under the rain washed away, the traces of the fight were very light, but the broken branches, the scattered "tents", the messy wood ash and the remains of Deinonychus all reminded Li Shizong's cold and cruel world. This Deinonychus was just stabbed by him and became the prey of other predators. What about him, what if he was by this tent yesterday?

He shivered, and there was no time to be afraid. He was worried that the smell of blood would attract other terrible things, so he packed up the necessary things and turned back into the woods.

Although, he didn't know, what was waiting for him ahead. But at least, now he is still alive, there is hope in life.
