It will be completely dark in an hour, and every inch of land in the midsummer forest is baked by the scorching sun as if it is about to melt.
Ding Hao continued to move deeper into the forest. Legend has it that no hunter has ever been able to reach the end of this forest. Legend has it that there are gods and ghosts lurking in the depths of this forest. No matter how smart and strong a hunter is, he cannot truly conquer this forest.
When Ding Hao was very young, he heard the old man in the village say that if you are disobedient and do bad things, you will be sent to the Black Wind Forest.
Black Wind Forest is what the villagers named this forest. Everything in this forest grows larger than elsewhere, including animals and plants.
The big branches covering the sky are lush with leaves, and deep in the forest there is a year-round wind, lifeless, and even the sound of insects is much softer than other places!
After Ding Hao became wise, he no longer believed in the words of the old people in the village, nor did he believe that there were any gods or ghosts deep in the forest.
But he believed that this forest did have some mysteries, and he was convinced that one day he would be able to completely conquer it. This was also the dream of every hunter in Shanhe Village.
But this forest did not give any hunter the opportunity to realize this dream!
It is like a monster crawling here, opening its huge mouth, constantly devouring the best hunters one after another!
Ding Hao was discovered in the forest by Zhang Cheng, an old hunter. Zhang came here to kill a few deer deer and was about to return to the village. On the way, he found Ding Hao, who was still a baby. Ding Hao was not crying or fussing in a simple bamboo basket, with his eyes open.
Big black eyes looked at Zhang Cheng.
The bamboo basket was suspected to have been hurriedly woven, and the bamboo tips had not been polished in any way. Zhang Cheng was afraid that the bamboo tips would prick the baby, so he only hesitated and held the baby in his arms. The baby was wrapped in a big red scarf.
There is a green jade plaque hanging on the bellyband and around the neck. The jade plaque has the word Ding Hao engraved on it.
Zhang Cheng originally thought that Ding Hao's parents were nearby and had just left for something, so he held Ding Hao there and waited for his parents to come, but when it got dark, he didn't even see a single figure.
So Zhang Chengcheng took Ding Hao home. In the next few days, Zhang Chengdu held Ding Hao early in the morning and waited for his parents, but never found his parents coming to find him. Zhang Chengcheng adopted him and gave him a jade gift.
The name on the card called him Ding Hao and taught him hunting skills until Ding Hao was thirteen years old and Zhang Cheng was killed by a tiger in the forest!
Children in the mountains are very precocious. Ding Hao followed Zhang Cheng in the forest when he was very young. In hunting, Ding Hao showed amazing talent, wit, tenacity, bravery, calmness. He seemed to be born with the qualities of a hunter.
In mastering hunting skills, he is also far behind his peers. All the hunters in the village believe that Ding Hao will be the best hunter in Shanhe Village when he grows up.
Two years ago, when Ding Hao returned to the village carrying a tiger on his back, he proved this to everyone. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall, and every muscle in his body was full of explosive power. In terms of speed and strength,
There is no one in the village who can compare with him.
He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and every corner of his Chinese-character face is sharp and angular. Although he is only eighteen years old, his whole body is already full of the masculine beauty of a man!
Ding Hao can't remember how many times he has come here. This area is already far away from the village. If he doesn't go back to the village now, he won't be able to return to the village today. Moreover, if he goes further, it will not be familiar to him at all.
The forest is the place with the most legends in the Black Wind Forest, and it is also the most dangerous and mysterious place.
He had stopped exploring here many times in the past. On the one hand, he felt that he had not yet become the best hunter in Shanhe Village and was not ready. On the other hand, he still had concerns in his heart and felt that he had not fully repaid him.
The villagers of Shanhe Village showed their kindness in raising him.
But now these two points can no longer be the conditions that bind him. When the most dangerous tigers are hunted by him, Ding Hao no longer feels that anything can threaten him. On the other hand, because of his tireless hunting,
The mountains of prey were exchanged for enough silver for the villagers. The lives of the villagers have greatly improved in the past few years, and they no longer need to worry about their livelihood.
After checking the three barrels of arrows on his back and the bow that had been with him for five years, and pulling out the fine hunting knife he had just bought, Ding Hao finally stopped being melancholy and took the most critical step in his life.
They have been gone for two hours, and the sun in the sky has long turned into a bright moon. With the moonlight, Ding Hao's sight is not greatly affected. The sound of insects is getting weaker and weaker, inaudible, and a bit quiet.
strangeness.
Years of hunting experience made Ding Hao feel that something unusual would happen. His pace gradually slowed down. Small and gentle animals gradually became scarce along the way. All he saw were carnivorous animals, wild boars, lone wolves, and leopards.
, these animals that are not easy to see at ordinary times kept appearing in sight. Ding Hao deliberately hid himself and did not attract the attention of these animals along the way.
The chirping of insects has completely stopped, and the silence is a bit strange. Ding Hao's footsteps are getting slower and slower, and the squeaking sound made by stepping on the thick layer of rotten leaves is extremely harsh in the silent forest.
Suddenly, the sound of running sounded in his ears, and the sound gradually approached from soft to loud.
It's a tiger! Ding Hao's eyes narrowed slightly, and a ray of cold light flashed away. Years of experience allowed him to quickly identify the sound of a tiger running, but the strange thing was that he only heard the sound of a tiger running, but
He did not hear the running sound of other animals. Under normal circumstances, if it is a tiger hunting, judging from the running sound and his own direction, he will not be unable to hear the running sound of the prey. Ding Hao is absolutely confident in this!
If it's not hunting, then what can make the tiger run at full speed? Ding Hao is a little puzzled. In the midst of doubt, another sound appears in his ears. It is the sound of skin rubbing against soil. Is it a snake? Unlike a python.
Ding Hao couldn't tell what it was, but the sound gave him another surprising conclusion - the tiger was running away with all its strength! It was avoiding the animals behind it!
Ding Hao never knew what could make a tiger so scared in the forest. As the sound kept getting closer, Ding Hao judged that the tiger was doomed. It actually ran faster than the tiger!
At this time, Ding Hao began to think about his own safety. An animal that could make a tiger run away like this was definitely not something he could easily deal with.
Subconsciously, his eyes flashed to find the tallest tree, and he climbed up as quickly as a wild ape. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, as other animals except those that could fly basically posed no threat to him.
Standing on the tree, under the moonlight, Ding Hao's field of vision became wider. Here, with the appearance of this huge beast, a whirlwind rolled up on the ground, and its colorful fur floated like a phantom.
The tiger is about three meters long, and its tail is also one meter long. Judging from its weight of 300 kilograms, you can tell that it is a male adult tiger. At this time, it is running like crazy - not hunting, but just running away for survival!
Now Ding Hao is even more curious about what kind of animal is chasing it?
As it got closer, there was a bigger whirlwind behind it. The whirlwind was mixed with dust and leaves, which was not very clear.
In the space of a breath, the tiger roared past the tree where Ding Hao was hiding, and at this time Ding Hao finally saw clearly what kind of animal was chasing it!
Taking a breath of cold air, he began to rejoice at his decisiveness in climbing the tree just now! He saw a monster that looked like a python but not a python, not a snake, with two horns on its head and two wings on its back appeared in the field of vision. This monster had big dark purple eyes.
It is like a fist, with a total length of about eight meters, a body as thick as a barrel, and covered with thick scales. There are several rows of cone-shaped teeth in the open mouth. Just looking at the hardness, Ding Hao does not dare to doubt that it has extreme
Great lethality.
Although the monster was still a few feet away, the fishy smell in its mouth had already hit his nostrils. Ding Hao just smelled a little bit and felt his chest was a little heavy. He immediately closed his breath and secretly thought he was lucky. He didn't expect that the fishy smell in its mouth was there.
This toxicity.
Of course, this monster didn't know that there was another prey on the big tree above its head, and it whizzed past Ding Hao, but it formed a whirlwind as it moved, and the dead branches and soil brought up by the whirlwind briefly blurred Ding Hao's sight.
.
At this time, a sad tiger roar announced the end of the chase. At this time, Ding Hao looked in the direction of the sound again and found that the tiger had fallen silently. Just looking at the unnatural distortion of the tiger's body, Ding Hao could
It is absolutely impossible to show off a living tiger.
At this time, Ding Hao had already begun to consider whether he needed to get closer to observe, but this idea was immediately rejected. He thought of the consequences of being discovered by the monster. Just by looking at it, he knew that the monster was cruel and absolutely murderous. After looking at it,
With those thick scales, Ding Hao began to doubt whether his bow and arrows could kill it, and its mountain-like size made Ding Hao not confident in his own power at all, not to mention that it was extremely poisonous!
Ding Hao quickly came to the conclusion that this thing was definitely not something he could deal with, and staying in place was definitely the wisest thing to do at the moment!
After a moment of hesitation, Ding Hao looked at the monster again and found that one-third of the tiger had been swallowed. The speed at which the monster devoured made Ding Hao wonder if it had swallowed it directly without chewing it. Then it swallowed the tiger in one bite.
The action of snapping the neck immediately dispelled Ding Hao's doubts, and he no longer dared to doubt the sharpness of its teeth!
In just one cup of tea, the tiger had been devoured, and all that was left were the fragmented tiger skin and bones all over the ground!
The monster seemed to be hungry, and its dark purple eyes flashed around, as if looking for its next prey.
Without any warning, a high-pitched bird call suddenly rang in Ding Hao's ears. The monster's dark purple eyes flashed and it began to return in a desperate way!
There is something that scares him! Ding Hao was suddenly stunned!
