Half River Autumn Moon and River Spring [Rat and Cat]

Several people went up the mountain on foot, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao led the horses and followed behind Gongsun.

As the name suggests, Qiongshan Mountain is a bare and bare mountain with nothing but vegetation and trees. After a few people walked for a while, they didn't even see a single animal that could run. If any hunter came here Hunting in the mountains, I guess I will die of depression...

Every time Gongsun took a few steps, he would stop and draw something on the ground with stones. Then, occasionally, he would ask the people around him to cut down the tree, or ask someone to move the big stone in the middle of the road to something strange. In short, the few people just walked and stopped, but nothing strange happened. After walking for a long time, Bai Yutang poked Zhan Zhao's shoulder and whispered: "Cat, do you think Gongsun looks like you?" God stick?"

Zhan Zhao stroked his chin, then nodded his head in agreement.

Gongsun walked quite easily at first, but gradually, he began to lose his composure, because there was a noisy fly flying around him all the time.

"Mr. Gongsun, how long will it take us to reach the top of the mountain?"

"Mr. Gongsun, have we walked this road just now? Have we come back again?"

"Mr. Gongsun, are you thirsty, hungry, tired, do you want to take a rest?"

"Mr. Gongsun, Mr. Gongsun..."

Gongsun was so annoyed that he just wanted to raise his head and talk about that Bai Jinyang, but before he could open his mouth, he saw that Bai Jinyang, who had been walking beside him, suddenly tripped over something, staggered and rushed forward. Fortunately, Bai Jinyang's martial arts are not weak, so he didn't fall down and make a fool of himself. He waved his fan, and was so uncomfortable that he was so short that he looked at the thing that tripped him just now. It turned out that he didn't look at it, but when he saw it, he gasped air conditioner...

Seeing Bai Jinyang's frightened expression, several people walked over in doubt.Seeing that the nagging flies around him suddenly quieted down, Gongsun couldn't help being a little surprised, and finally looked at him squarely: "What's wrong?"

Bai Jinyang's face was ugly. Seeing Gongsun looking at him, he hurriedly covered his mouth, ran aside and retched.

Gongsun blinked and looked down, only then did he realize why Bai Jinyang's face was so ugly.

On the ground was a severed hand.

It would be fine if it was an ordinary severed hand, but this hand is still very fresh, obviously not long ago, it was still growing on the human body; it would be fine if it was an ordinary fresh severed hand, but now the arm But it was full of bite marks, flesh and blood rolled over, bones and muscles exposed, mixed with mud and moss on the ground, looked at under the cold moonlight, mottled and bloody, a little shocking...

When the three people who had been following Bai Jinyang saw the severed hand, they hurried aside and vomited.

Bai Yutang had always been obsessed with cleanliness, so he frowned and stood up slightly, but he didn't feel any discomfort.Zhan Zhao and Gongsun are used to this kind of scene. Zhan Zhao squatted down while supporting Ju Que, lowered his head and looked at the severed hand for a while, only to see that the root of the severed hand had twisted marks, and the tendons were broken in a mess. Zhao raised his head and saw Gongsun wearing gloves, so he asked softly, "Gongsun, this severed hand must have been forcibly twisted off, right?"

Gongsun flipped his severed hand lightly, nodded, then stood up with a sigh of relief, and turned his head to look around.

Zhan Zhao then stood up, thought for a while, and then asked: "There are so many bite marks, could it be that they were given by the beasts on Qiongshan..."

Gongsun shook his head: "It's not a beast, and there are few ferocious beasts in this area."

"That……"

"It's human."

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, pointed at the severed hand on the ground and said, "You mean, it's a human who bit this hand into such a monster?"

The pale-faced people who had finally finished vomiting at the side immediately turned around again when they heard Bai Yutang's words, lined up and continued to vomit...

Gongsun said: "The bite mark on the severed hand was caused by human teeth." After saying that, Gongsun lowered his head again, as if he was looking for something.

Zhan Zhao was about to come over, but Gongsun hurriedly stopped him: "Be careful, there are bloodstains here..."

Zhan Zhao took a step back, bent down, and looked at the ground carefully, and sure enough, he saw drops of blood blooming on the ground, stretching intermittently...

Gongsun said: "People should not have gone far..."

As soon as the words fell, they heard Zhan Zhao's horse, Huo Ling, neighing suddenly and uncomfortably. They turned their heads and saw Huo Ling walking back and forth, the nose of the horse humming impatiently, As soon as Zhao Wei raised her head, she felt that something was wrong on the tree over there, the leaves trembled slightly, and then, without waiting for everyone's reaction, a black shadow jumped out of the dense tree and rushed towards Zhan Zhao's Huo Ling!

Under the moonlight, I saw a blood-stained man with his green eyes open, his mouth wide open, red saliva dripping from his mouth, and he bit fiercely towards Huo Ling...

After being a famous horse, Huo Ling is naturally not so easy to provoke. Seeing that man rushing towards him, he raised his hooves and wanted to kick him without any hesitation, but the man jumped at it from directly above. Huo Ling couldn't defend himself, and was hugged on the back in an instant, Huo Ling was so angry that he threw his body, trying to throw the man off, but was hugged tightly by the man, he opened his mouth wide, and was about to take a bite bite down...

Zhan Zhao shot a sleeve arrow, which hit the man's shoulder, and the man clutched his shoulder and fell off the horse.

Seeing the man fall down, Li Huan frowned and said, "What is this guy doing? He wants to eat the horse raw? Is he still a human?"

Min Wuxue looked at the people on the ground for a while, and suddenly said in surprise: "Could it be the savages in the mountains? I heard that some savages are like wild animals, eating raw meat!"

"No." Gongsun took a closer look, then pointed at the man, and said back, "Although his clothes are tattered, they are the belongings of ordinary people, so it can be seen that he is definitely not a barbarian who lives on the mountain all the year round... …he……"

"careful!"

Before Gongsun finished speaking, the person behind him came to his senses, but Gongsun was explaining to everyone, so he turned his back to the person, and the people on the side saw the green light flashing in the person's eyes, and the filth all over his body was fierce. I have to rush towards the Gongsun in front of me...

It was too late to say it, and it was soon, Bai Jinyang, who had been standing beside Gongsun, shouted "Be careful", pulled Gongsun past him, and elbowed the man in the stomach hard, Gongsun was singled out by Bai Jinyang. Holding his arms in his arms, he blinked for no reason, and saw that person flying out of the sky.

Bai Jinyang squeezed the hand on Gongsong's waist, thinking, this scholar's body is really slender...

Zhan Zhao hurriedly said, "Sir, are you alright?"

Gongsun shook his head, withdrew from Bai Jinyang's arms, then patted the shoulder and sleeves that had just leaned on Bai Jinyang, and asked Zhan Zhao seriously: "Is it dirty?"

Zhan Zhao was speechless, could it be that Gongsun really saw someone as a fly?

Bai Jinyang was stunned, and after a while, he jumped up and said: "Hey! I saved you, okay, but you still think I'm dirty! If it weren't for me, you would have been bitten by him just now!"

Gongsun ignored it and continued to clap his sleeves.

Zhan Zhao shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to turn around to see how the person before him was doing, he heard Bai Yutang's voice not far away: "He's dead."

"what?!"

Bai Jinyang was so surprised that he ran to Bai Yutang's side. He didn't care about the blood on the man's body, so he reached out to feel his pulse. In the end, there was really no sign of life. He opened his eyes wide in disbelief: "No Well, I just punched him, and... just hang up like this?"

Ji Lengyan on the side glanced at Zhan Zhao, and said coldly, "Could it be that Mr. Zhan's sleeve arrow is poisonous?"

Before Zhan Zhao could speak, Gongsun rolled his eyes back at Ji Lengyan: "Which of your eyes can tell that he died of poisoning? He died of starvation!"

Several people looked at Gongsun together: "Starved to death?"

Gongsun said: "That's right, he died of starvation. Look at him, his face is yellow and thin, he has no blood, his cheeks have sunken, and there is a thin layer of skin on his stomach, so thin that even his original clothes have become loose. , I must have not eaten for a long time, I am so hungry that my eyes are green, and I have already started eating raw human flesh!"

"Cannibalism? You mean, that severed hand is his food?!"

Gongsun nodded coldly.

Several people looked at each other and felt a little nauseous.

"But, there is no reason. Even if there is nothing to satisfy the hunger in this broken mountain, his clothes don't look like a person without money. If he walks out of this mountain, is there anything he wants to eat? How could he be hungry, and even get enough to eat?" Human flesh?"

Gongsun glanced sideways at Bai Jinyang who asked the question, and asked, "What if you can't get out of this mountain?"

"Eh..." Everyone thought of the dizzy roads that Gongsun took around when they went up the mountain just now, and finally began to understand what Gongsun said before, those who don't know the art of strange gates will never be able to get out of this Qiongshan mountain statement……

Gongsun smiled strangely: "Let me tell you, if you can't get out, the best way is to eat your companion's corpse...Of course, if you can eat it."

"You mean... he is not only a person, but also has companions? He... eats the companions?"

"They've been stuck here for too long. They couldn't find their way up the mountain, they couldn't find their way back down the mountain, and they couldn't find food when they stayed here. Those who were in poor health couldn't stand it, so they starved to death...the health is better. Yes, naturally they last longer, but after all, they have been hungry for so long, and at this time, they start to be hungry..."

Min Wuxue looked at the corpse on the ground in disgust: "If it were me, I would rather starve to death than eat the corpse..."

Gongsun nodded: "He must have thought so at the beginning, so he never ate, but later, hunger made him lose himself, and in the end, he tore his companion's arm alive and ate his flesh!"

Bai Jinyang muttered: "It's as if you saw it with your own eyes."

Gongsun said indifferently: "The severed hand and the scream we heard before we went up the mountain told me. It should be the cry made by his companion after he tore off his companion's hand... Besides, he seems to be only interested in living things. If he guessed correctly, his companion should be dead, so he attacked us, he wanted to eat fresh meat."

Li Huan suddenly said uneasy: "We, can't we also find the way?"

Min Wuxue crossed her arms and said with contempt on her face, "You're so stupid! We have Mr. Gongsun, our brain trustee, how could we still get lost!"

Everyone looked at Gongsun one after another, and then felt a sense of relief, and finally heard Bai Jinyang say thoughtfully: "What if the scholar gets separated from us?"

"..."

The crowd fell silent.

After a while, Bai Yutang tugged at Zhan Zhao's sleeve and asked, "Cat, did you remember the way up the mountain just now?"

Zhan Zhao held his breath and said, "Please, that kind of road is not something normal people can remember, okay?"

Bai Yutang nodded: "Of course I know that normal people can't reach it, but... aren't you a cat?"

Zhan Zhao: "..."
