Chapter 1 Deep in the Jungle
It will be completely dark one hour after another, and every inch of the land in the midsummer forest is baked by the scorching sun as if it is about to melt.
Ding Hao still moved deep into the forest. It is said that no hunter has ever been able to reach the end of this forest. It is said that gods and ghosts lurk in the depths of this forest. Even the smart and strong hunter cannot truly conquer this forest completely.
When Ding Hao was very young, he heard from the elderly in the village that if you disobey and do bad things, you will be sent to the Black Wind Forest.
Black Wind Forest is exactly what villagers named this forest. No matter what things are, this forest grow larger than other places, such as animals and plants.
The trees covering the sky are lush with branches and leaves, and the deep forest is filled with gloomy winds all year round, and the sound of insects is much weaker than that of other places!
After Ding Hao became sensible, he no longer believed in the words of the old people in the village, nor did he think that there were any gods and ghosts deep in the forest.
But he believed that this forest did have some mystery, and he was also sure that he would one day completely conquer it, which is also the dream of every hunter in Shanhe Village.
But this forest did not give any hunters the chance to realize their dreams!
It is like a monster crawling here, opening its huge mouth, constantly devouring one of the best hunters after another!
Ding Hao was discovered in the forest by the old hunter Zhang Cheng. Zhang Chuang came to beat a few deer and was about to go back to the village. On the way, he found Ding Hao, who was still a baby, on the way. Ding Hao did not cry or make a fuss in the simple bamboo basket, and looked at Zhang Cheng with his big black eyes.
The bamboo basket was suspected to be woven in a hurry, and the bamboo tips were not polished. Zhang Cheng was afraid that the bamboo tips would thorn into the baby, so hesitated for a moment and hugged the baby in his arms. The baby was wrapped in a big red bellyband and a green jade plaque was hung around his neck, with the words Ding Hao engraved on the jade plaque.
Zhang Cheng originally thought Ding Hao's parents were at the attachment, but he left because he had something to do, so he hugged Ding Hao and waited for his parents to come to find him, but when it was dark, he didn't even see him.
So Zhang Cheng took Ding Hao home. In the next few days, Zhang Cheng carried Ding Hao here to wait for his parents, but he never noticed that his parents came to find him. Zhang Cheng adopted him and called him Ding Hao with the name on the jade token, teaching him hunting skills until when Ding Hao was thirteen years old, Zhang Cheng was bitten to death by a tiger in the forest!
Children in the mountains are very precocious. Ding Hao followed Zhang Cheng to hunt in the forest when he was very young. Ding Hao showed amazing talent, wit, tenacity, courage and calmness in hunting. He seemed to have the qualities of a hunter. In his mastery of hunting skills, he also left his peers behind. All the hunters in the village believed that Ding Hao would definitely be the best hunter in Shanhe Village when he grew up.
Two years ago, when Ding Hao returned to the village with a tiger on his back, he proved this to everyone. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall, and every muscle in his body was filled with explosive power. No one in the village could compare with him in terms of speed and strength.
With thick eyebrows and big eyes, every corner of the face with Chinese characters is clear. Although he is only eighteen years old, his whole body is full of manly masculine beauty!
Ding Hao no longer remembers how many times he has come here. This area is far away from the village. If he doesn't go back to the village now, he will not be able to return to the village today. And if he goes further, it will be completely different from the forest he is familiar with. It is the most legendary place in the Black Wind Forest, and the most dangerous and mysterious place.
Many times in the past, he stopped exploring here. On the one hand, he felt that he had not become the best hunter in Shanhe Village and was not prepared. On the other hand, he still had concerns in his heart and felt that he had not completely repayed the kindness of the villagers of Shanhe Village for raising him.
But now these two points can no longer be the conditions that bind him. When the most dangerous tigers were hunted by him, Ding Hao could no longer feel that it could threaten him. On the other hand, because of his tireless hunting, he exchanged the mountains of prey for the villagers for enough silver. The villagers' lives have improved greatly in recent years and there is no need to worry about their livelihoods.
After checking the three arrows on his back and the bow that he had been with him for five years, and drawing out the best hunting knife he had just bought, Ding Hao finally stopped being depressed and took the most critical step in his life.
It has been two hours since I left, and the sun in the sky has already turned into a bright moon. With the moonlight, Ding Hao's vision is not affected too much. The sound of insects is getting weaker and weaker, and it is so silent that it is a bit strange.
Years of hunting experience made Ding Hao feel that something unusual would happen, and his pace gradually slowed down. Along the way, small and gentle animals gradually became rare, and the eyes were filled with carnivorous animals, wild boars, lone wolfs, and leopards. These animals are not easy to see but are constantly appearing in sight. Ding Hao deliberately hid himself and did not attract the attention of these animals along the way.
The sound of insects had completely stopped, and the silence was a bit incredible. Ding Hao's steps became slower and slower, and the squeaking sound made by stepping on the thick layer of rotten leaves was extremely harsh in the quiet forest.
Suddenly, a running sounded in his ears, and the sound gradually approached from small to large.
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 judge that it was the sound of a tiger running, but strangely, he only heard the sound of a tiger running, but did not hear the sound of another animal running. Under normal circumstances, if it was a tiger hunting, look at the sound of running and his own direction, he would not be unable to hear the sound of the prey running. Ding Hao has absolute confidence in this!
If it weren't for hunting, what could make the tiger run with all its strength? Ding Hao was a little puzzled. While he was wondering, another voice appeared in his ears. It was a sound of skin and soil friction. Is it a snake? Unlike, the python's friction is not so strong. Ding Hao couldn't judge what it was, but this sound made him get another amazing judgment - the tiger is running with all its strength! It is avoiding the animals behind!
Ding Hao never knew what could make the tiger so scared. As the sound kept approaching Ding Hao judged that the tiger was doomed, and it actually ran faster than the tiger!
At this time, Ding Hao began to consider his own safety. Animals that could make tigers run away so hard were not something he could easily deal with.
Subconsciously, his eyes flashed and found a tallest tree, and he climbed up like a wild ape. He breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Except for the flying animals, he could basically not pose a threat to him.
Standing on the tree and taking advantage of the moonlight, Ding Hao's vision became wider. He came. With the appearance of this huge beast, a whirlwind gushed up on the ground, and its fur floated like a phantom.
The tiger is about three meters long and its tail is one meter long. Judging from its weight of 300 kilograms, you can tell that it is a male adult tiger. At this time, it ran wildly - not preying, but just running away for survival! Now Ding Hao is even more curious about which animal is chasing it?
As it approaches, behind it is a bigger whirlwind, mixed with dust and leaves, not very clear.
During a breathing interval, the tiger whizzed past the tree where Ding Hao was hiding, and at this time Ding Hao finally saw clearly what animal was chasing it!
He took a breath of air conditioning, and at this time he began to be glad that he had just climbed the tree! He saw a monster that looked like a python, not a python, not a snake, with two horns, and two wings on the back appeared in his sight. The monster had dark purple eyes as big as a fist, about eight meters long, as thick as a bucket, covered with thick scales, and had several rows of conical teeth in his open mouth. Just looking at the hardness, Ding Hao did not dare to doubt that it had great lethality.
Although the monster was still a few feet away, the fishy smell in its mouth was already coming to its nose. Ding Hao felt a little dull when he smelled it a little, and immediately closed his breathing, and secretly complained to himself that he was lucky. Unexpectedly, the fishy smell in its mouth was so toxic.
Of course, this monster would not know that there was another prey on the big tree above his head, and it also whirled past Ding Hao, but it formed a whirlwind as it moved. The dead branches and soil brought by the whirlwind had briefly blurred Ding Hao's vision.
At this time, a wailing tiger roar declared the end of the pursuit battle. 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 unnaturally distorted tiger body, Ding Hao could be sure that the living tiger would definitely not be able to be distorted.
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 after being discovered by the monster. Just looking at the monster, he knew that the monster was cruel and absolutely bloodthirsty. Looking at its thick scales, Ding Hao began to doubt whether his bow and arrow could have lethality on it. And its hill-like volume made Ding Hao not have any confidence in his power, not to mention that it had a huge poison!
Ding Hao quickly concluded that this thing is definitely not something he can deal with, and keeping it in place is definitely the wisest way at present!
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 of the monster's devour made Ding Hao doubt whether it had swallowed it directly without chewing. However, its next move to bite the tiger's 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 has been gnawed, and all that is left is the fragmented tiger skin and the broken bones all over the ground!
The monster was not full, and its dark purple eyes flashed around, as if looking for the next prey.
Without any warning, a sharp bird song suddenly rang in Ding Hao's ears, and the monster's dark purple eyes flashed, and it began to return like a desperate journey!
There are actually things that make it scared! Ding Hao was suddenly stunned!
