Pastoral Daily Life

"Why did you stop?"

The rainforest was dim, and the man who kidnapped them didn't see the little monkey, but saw Lu Lingxi stop, and immediately yelled loudly.

Lu Lingxi didn't speak, and quickly waved his hands at the little monkey, bowed his head and walked forward.He still remembered the little monkey's warning in the morning, worried that the man would recognize the little monkey.Although the little monkey was nimble, the man had a gun in his hand.The little monkey understood Lu Lingxi's movements, and quickly jumped onto a nearby tree.Hidden behind thick foliage.The man came over, looked up and saw nothing.

The group of three walked forward for a while, and the man figured it was time to contact the boss.He is very familiar with this rainforest, even in the dark, he can judge the correct direction.According to their speed, they should join the boss in half an hour.He was about to take out the satellite phone from his satchel when suddenly a strong wind came from behind his head.The man rolled on the ground instinctively, and a huge black shadow fell behind him.The man was stunned subconsciously, and Wang Chaoliang reacted very quickly and took the opportunity to rush over, firmly pressing the man who was about to get up under him.

"Xiaoxi, gun."

Wang Chaoliang had trouble moving, and after shouting, he opened his mouth and bit the man's arm holding the gun.

The man struggled and couldn't push Wang Chaoliang away. He became fierce for a while, and he clenched his other hand tightly and punched Wang Chaoliang in the face fiercely.Wang Chaoliang let out a muffled snort, but still insisted on refusing to let go.Lu Lingxi had already run to the man's side, fighting for the gun with him.

The black shadow that had attacked the man before also took the opportunity to make trouble, jumped onto the man's face, and squeaked. It turned out to be a big monkey half the height of a man.

"MD bastard courts death."

Gritting his teeth and cursing, the man kicked his legs and tried to overturn the man and the monkey on him.In the chaos, Lu Lingxi stepped hard on the man's hand holding the gun. The man was in so much pain that he had to let go, but Lu Lingxi snatched the gun away.In the blink of an eye, black shadows in twos and threes jumped down from the tree, monkeys, big and small, squeaked excitedly, and threw themselves on the man, scratching or scratching, and a few little monkeys stood at the front, barking. Grabbing an unknown fruit with his teeth and hitting the man vigorously, the man roared angrily.

Lu Lingxi held the gun and didn't know how to use it. Without thinking too much, he stuffed the gun behind his clothes, and pulled a finger from the ground to look at the very strong vine. Unable to get up, he went around and tied up the man's exposed legs, and tied a knot forcefully.

"Uncle Wang."

Lu Lingxi hurriedly pulled Wang Chaoliang up and untied him from the rope.With the help of the monkey group, the two tied the man on the ground again with the rope, and took off the man's socks and stuffed them into his mouth.

"Okay, it's all right." Wang Chaoliang's face and mouth were covered with blood, he wiped it carelessly, and patted Lu Lingxi comfortingly.

Lu Lingxi looked at him worriedly, "Uncle Wang, are you okay?"

Wang Chaoliang laughed, "It's okay, your Uncle Wang is very tough, this little injury is nothing."

Until now, the two of them have completely stabilized their minds and are thinking about talking.Lu Lingxi's heart had been beating violently before, and he acted completely according to instinct.Wang Chaoliang was not much better than Lu Lingxi. After all, he was old and had been beaten a lot all the way. Under the heavy pressure, he almost couldn't hold on.It is also fortunate that he usually works a lot outdoors, and his physical exercise is not bad.He also thought about how he would take Xiaoxi back completely after he brought Xiaoxi out.Relying on this idea, I carried it all the way down.

The two looked at the man who was tied up. The man looked miserable, his face was swollen badly, his clothes were ripped into strips by the monkeys, and his exposed body was covered with long bloodstains.A few little monkeys kept hitting the man, as if they thought it was a fun game.The leading little monkey was the one Lu Lingxi knew, and it pointed at the man and screamed while hitting.

"What's going on here?" Zhao Liang was both grateful and puzzled, "Has this person offended the monkeys before?"

Speaking of which, it was luck that he and Lu Lingxi escaped danger.If it wasn't for him taking advantage of the sudden attack on the man and not being on guard, and with the help of these monkeys, it would be impossible for him and Xiaoxi to escape from the man's grasp alone.

Lu Lingxi couldn't tell for sure, what was certain was that these monkeys were called helpers by the little monkey, but he didn't know why the little monkey wanted to save him.

squeak.

The leading monkey jumped up the tree and called out to the group.The monkeys on the ground responded one after another, and even the happy little monkeys who were smashing people stopped and responded with a squeak.Among them, the little monkey that Lu Lingxi knew jumped into Lu Lingxi's arms with a few steps while squeaking. Its furry paws touched Lu Lingxi's neck and rubbed it affectionately.Lu Lingxi bent her eyes, her heart was unusually soft.He touched the soft fur of the little monkey.The heartbeat gradually returned to normal.

"Uncle Wang, let's call the village."

The bound man had a satellite phone on his body, just in time to communicate with the village.

Wang Chaoliang was stunned, and immediately stepped forward to pick up the man's satchel.As soon as he took out the satellite phone, the surrounding monkeys suddenly panicked and fled to the surrounding trees in all directions.A giant python that was as thick as a washbasin and covered in black swam out of the grass without a sound, held its head up and spit out a message, looking at them with cold eyes.

Lu Lingxi's heart sank all of a sudden, he stood there not daring to move.Even the little monkey in his arms clung to his body in fear, completely losing its previous lively appearance.The man on the ground felt the abnormal atmosphere, twisted his neck and saw the giant python, and swayed his body frantically, trying to get away from the giant python.

During the confrontation between the two sides, the leading monkey suddenly jumped up and provoked the giant python. It greeted, and raindrops of fruit fell from the hands of the monkeys to the giant python.

"run."

Wang Chaoliang only felt a puff of anger in his throat, he yelled hoarsely, and pulled Lu Lingxi to run.The little monkey hugged Lu Lingxi obediently, and Lu Lingxi only had time to look back at the group of monkeys hastily.Seeing that the monkey group also quickly fled towards the surroundings after several waves of attacks, it seemed that the previous attacks were just creating opportunities for him and Wang Chaoliang to escape.just the man...

Lu Lingxi didn't think about it any more, and ran forward recklessly all the way.He didn't know how long he ran, but he just felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat. "Xiaoxi...take a break." Wang Chaoliang said intermittently, "There seems to be no movement behind."

The two leaned on the tree trunk and collapsed on the ground, panting desperately.

"That snake probably didn't follow." Wang Chaoliang looked around in shock.

Lu Lingxi hugged the little monkey and looked around, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.The little monkey tightly grasped Lu Lingxi with its two paws, and refused to let go.Lu Lingxi knew that the little monkey was probably also frightened. This was the first time he had seen such a thick and long giant python. "It's okay." He coaxed the little monkey like a child, and the little monkey squeaked coquettishly.

"That man..." Wang Chaoliang stopped talking at the beginning. Although he hated drug dealers, he only wanted to hand over that man to the police, but he didn't expect to throw him to a giant python.

Lu Lingxi understood Wang Chaoliang's meaning, hesitated for a while and said in a low voice: "...he is a bad person"

"Yeah, he's a bad guy." Wang Chaoliang breathed a sigh of relief, stroked Lu Lingxi's hair, and said firmly, "He's a bad guy... Xiaoxi don't even think about it."

Lu Lingxi nodded slightly.Wang Chaoliang tried to change the subject, "Xiaoxi, what kind of tree is this? It's strange, I've never seen it before."

What Wang Chaoliang was talking about was the tree behind which the two leaned.Lu Lingxi didn't feel it when she was leaning on it, but following Wang Chaoliang's line of sight, she realized that the tree was as thick as seven or eight grown men, and it probably took four or five people to surround it.

He didn't know much about trees, so he subconsciously released a mental scan, and the white panel floated in front of him.

Botanical name: Copaiba gum tree

Plant Requirements: None

Plant Survival: Dead.

"The plant is dead, do you want to use some natural power to revive it?"

The prompt at the bottom made Lu Lingxi slightly taken aback. He didn't expect that the tree that was leaning against it was already dead.Although he had never heard the name of the tree, he believed that the panel could not be wrong.It was completely dark at this time, and Lu Lingxi couldn't see the specific situation of the tree clearly. He thought that the tree had just died, so it looked fine from the outside, but the problem was actually in the heart of the tree.He quickly chose yes without hesitation. It would take at least several hundred years for this tree to grow to such a large size, and it was a plant that evolved naturally. It would be a pity if it died like this.

After he clicked OK, the little monkey in his arms suddenly became excited, grabbed Lu Lingxi's collar and squeaked, one paw was still pointing in the direction of the tree.Lu Lingxi knows that animals have very keen senses. In the past, every time the big willow tree in Lingshui Village evolved, the animals in the village would be very excited, but the villagers did not notice any abnormalities.He touched the little monkey's furry head, and the little monkey grabbed his finger and pointed at the tree trunk and kept squeaking.

"What?" Lu Lingxi still didn't understand what the little monkey meant.

The little monkey was a little anxious, so he simply jumped onto the tree and searched for a long time by the bark. Finally, his hands were covered with some light yellow oil, and he handed it to Lu Lingxi happily.Seeing that Lu Lingxi still didn't understand, the little monkey jumped to the ground, squatted there, stretched out its two little paws, and made a look of warming up.

Lu Lingxi blinked, and Fu Ling said heartily: "Can this be ignited?"

The little monkey gritted its teeth and continued to do a few warming movements, squeaking and jumping into his arms, and wiped the oily stuff from its paws onto his clothes.Lu Lingxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and grabbed the little monkey's hand to keep him from moving.Although they are now out of the python crisis, the only satellite phone that can communicate with the village has been lost in the previous escape.They couldn't contact the village, and couldn't see anything, so the two of them didn't dare to continue walking in the rainforest in the dark.

Lu Lingxi simply relaxed his mind, held the little monkey's paw, and asked Wang Chaoliang what was on it. "Uncle Wang, is it resin?"

Wang Chaoliang and Lu Lingxi have the same mentality, they can only stay the same to cope with all changes, and simply take a break in these things.He leaned over to distinguish carefully for a while, then shook his head uncertainly, "It's not resin, do you smell the smell of industrial oil?"

"Industrial oil?" Lu Lingxi smelled it, but couldn't tell what it smelled like.

Wang Chaoliang laughed, "I would know if I could set it on fire. It's a pity..."

Although the fire light can make them feel at ease, it will be troublesome if it attracts other drug dealers.Just now they ran around for a while, and they didn't know where they went.

"Forget it, safety comes first." Wang Chaoliang restrained his professional impulse, and said with a wry smile, "Our lives are almost gone, and we are still thinking about this."

Lu Lingxi smiled at first, and then said seriously: "I think Brother Yan will definitely find us."

Several hours had passed since he and Wang Chaoliang were kidnapped, and he believed that Yan Yue must have known the news and was looking for him in the rainforest now.As long as they don't meet a few other drug dealers, they will be able to wait for Yan Yue.

"Okay, then we two will wait here for Yan Yue."

The two leaned against the big tree in the dark and chatted about plants, and Yan Yue and his party were standing at the place where they encountered the giant python.

"This is a satellite phone and broken clothes found on the ground. There are traces of people's activities in front of them, and there is a huge snake road on the left and traces of people being dragged along. The preliminary judgment is that they encountered a giant python, and one person was killed by a giant python. Drag it away, and the remaining two escaped." Wu Jiang looked around and quickly analyzed the previous situation, and showed Yan Yue the clothes he picked up. "It's the costumes of the local ethnic minorities. Optimistically, the drug dealer was dragged away by the python, and your friend escaped."

Yan Yue knew that this was only a possibility, but he was holding on to these possibilities like a drowning man. He needed someone to keep telling him that Xiaoxi was fine, Xiaoxi would be fine.

Taking advantage of no one paying attention, Wu Jiang asked in a low voice, "Your snakes?"

Yan Yue shook his head, the aura of the giant python nearby was too strong, those snakes were affected, and it was too late to hide, so they dared not come over.

"Then let's look for the traces of the activities ahead." Wu Jiang decided.

Yan Yue nodded, turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly he heard monkeys squeaking in the tree.He looked over with a flashlight, and saw a half-man-tall monkey hanging from a tree trunk, baring its teeth and barking at him.With a thought in Yan Yue's heart, the monkey had already jumped onto another tree, and kept jumping towards the front.

"Follow him." Yan Yue instinctively felt that the monkey was leading them, so he ran after the monkey first.

Wu Jiang looked at Yan Yue's back inexplicably, and muttered: "First it was a snake, and now it's a monkey. Are you from a circus?" Even though he was so slanderous in his heart, he still beckoned his subordinates to follow.

As they got deeper and deeper into the rainforest, Xiao Hui, who had been squatting on Fang Lei's shoulder, suddenly meowed.

Fang Lei was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Hui said it will be ahead."

The expression on Wu Jiang's face became even weirder.

"Here we are, right in front." Fang Lei affirmed.

The group stopped quickly.Because they were not sure which two people escaped, they didn't dare to make too much noise, for fear that if there were drug dealers among the escaped people, the other party would take risks when they knew the police were coming.Although Yan Yue was anxious in his heart, he could only endure and approached slowly.

The rainforest at night was fairly quiet, but the little monkey was the first to hear their footsteps and squeaked.

Lu Lingxi looked over vigilantly, and faintly heard someone coming.He and Wang Chaoliang looked at each other, endured the fear in his heart, and said loudly: "Who is it? Don't get close, we have guns." While speaking, he took the gun pinned to his waist in his hand, and pointed it at the front with all his strength. jungle.

The next moment, Yan Yue's ecstatic voice came, "Xiaoxi!"

"Brother Yan." Lu Lingxi blinked, and then ran towards the place where the sound came out with a gun in his hands.

The distance between the two is not far, and it takes only one or two minutes to run, but this distance is the longest distance in Yan Yue's life.It wasn't until he hugged Lu Lingxi in his arms that he realized that he had been holding his breath, as if he couldn't even hear his heartbeat.

"Xiaoxi." Yan Yue tremblingly called Lu Lingxi's name, tremblingly touching Lu Lingxi's face and the other's back, as if in this way he could be sure that his baby was in his arms. "Xiaoxi..."

"Brother Yan, I'm here." Lu Lingxi responded by hugging Yan Yue.

Yan Yue wanted to laugh, but her eye sockets were unknowingly moist.
