It is very common for prey to be snatched. When they have worked hard to track down the prey, they find that the prey that has lost their ability to move has been eaten by the lion or hyena. Whenever this time, they can only return empty-handed.
Watched as the chief had reached the front of the antelope, but then suddenly a figure jumped out of the grass next to him, and the antelope fell to the ground.
Fell high at the end. He saw clearly that it was a leopard who knocked down the antelope, but at this time the chief and the leopard were almost face to face, regardless of whether the chief was attentive, they formed a situation of preying with the leopard.
Gao Yang soon understood why leopards, who would normally avoid humans, dared to face off with the five of them, because the leopard was very old, his hunting ability had dropped a lot, and now he was very hungry and lost his ability to move The antelope has a fatal attraction to the first-year-old leopard. The extremely hungry old leopard refuses to give up this mouth-to-mouth food.
The distance was too close and the situation was very dangerous. The leopard opened his mouth and made a low growl. The chief stood less than two meters away from the leopard, opened his arms and slowly backed away, while the rest included high The people in it are also slowly retreating.
It ’s dangerous to eat with a hungry leopard, even if this leopard is old and weak, especially at this almost face-to-face distance, the explosive power of the limbs is not imaginable at all, even if there are five people, They can't anger the leopard at this time. They can only scare away the leopard after they retreat to a safe distance and then go together.
Just as the chief retreated slowly, the leopard suddenly let go of the antelope under its claws, and like a lightning bolt, rushed towards the chief.
The chief just came and retracted his open arms to protect his neck, and was thrown to the ground by the leopard.
The huge leopard tilted his head and opened his mouth to the chief's throat. He caught the chief's throat and refused to let go, and fortunately the chief guarded his neck in time, so he did not bite his throat.
Seeing that the chief was falling to the ground, he roared loudly, and the hunting knife in the handshake shook forward, and the three people in front of him also stabbed the spears in their hands, and the leopard was stabbed. After the middle, the chief who let go of his mouth and flicked forward again. After leaving five deep scratches on one's thigh, he finally turned around and fled backward.
Was exasperated, and his heart was full of coolness. Leopard was one of Africa's top predators. The leopard was caught in the neck of the prey, and there was almost no possibility of life.
The chief covered his neck with one hand, and blood leaked from his fingers, and several people were frightened, but stood there and yelled. Only Gao Yang was calm. He ran to the chief and stretched his hand to break the chief. Covering his neck, he glanced at the chief's injury.
The chief guarded his throat in time. The leopard did not bite his throat, but the leopard ’s long fangs left two deep blood holes on the right rear side of the chief ’s neck. In addition, Leopard left a deep row of teeth marks on the chief's right arm.
Gao Yang took a cold breath and reached out to cover the wound on the chief's neck. For a time, his brain was in a mess. He was thinking hard about how to save the chief's life, but the more he thought, the more panicked his heart was. , Because no matter from which point of view, the chief is dead.
Fortunately, the leopard did not bite the chief ’s throat, nor did he bite the chief ’s artery. As long as he can get the minimum surgical operation, the chief can stop the blood, but now, the chief can only slowly because of blood loss If you die too much, even if you are lucky, the blood will stop itself, but the subsequent wound infection will still allow the chief to die after a long period of pain.
As a carnivore, the leopard carries too many bacteria and viruses in its mouth and paws, whether it is bitten by teeth or scratched by the claws of the cheetah, regardless of the size of the wound, as long as there is no antibiotics, it is absolutely fatal.
Three years of getting along, Gao Yang's feelings for the chief are very deep. Just now, just now, he could only watch the chief die. Although Gao Yang tried his best to grind his teeth, his tears fell involuntarily.
The Chief also knew that his life would not be too long. He pushed away his high hand and stood up slowly, shook his head at the high, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't cry anymore, I am very old By the way, all of us will have this day. Da Ba Li. If you are not dead, you are the chief. If you are dead too, let Ba Ba Li be the chief. Well, do n’t cry. The antelope is ready, eat something here, and take the meat home. "
"Daddy, you won't die, you won't die, wow."
Is talking about the youngest Custo. He is only about 14 or 15 years old. He is not as good as his brothers at life and death. After talking, he finally started crying out loud,
After hearing what the chief said, Gao Yang remembered that Da Ba Li, the chief son of the chief, was also scratched by Leopard, which also meant that Da Ba Li was likely to get wounds and die.
Exclaimed: "No, it shouldn't be this way. There must be a way, there must be a way to save you. Let me think about it. Don't talk, let me think about it."
The chieftain lost a lot of blood, and with a sad face, he wobbled and sat down again.
"White boy, there is no way out. No one can escape the death brought by the leopard."
Gao Yang couldn't think of it. He could only watch the chief die, which made him extremely irritable. After a few laps in his breath, Gao Yang finally couldn't stand it anymore, he shouted and disappeared towards the leopard. The direction ran away.
Kao Yang knew that catching up with the leopard was useless, but he still wanted to find the leopard, kill it, and avenge the chieftain. Only in this way would he be better off.
Looked down and followed the traces left by the leopard. The leopard was stabbed a few times, and the blood drop from the wound provided him with a very clear road sign.
It didn't take long to run out, that is, after three or five minutes, Gao Yang, who had been rushing down his head, suddenly stopped. He stared at the traces on the grass that should not have appeared, but the brain suddenly appeared blank.
The traces on the grass are rut marks, or tire marks, and it is obviously not a car left, but a fleet of at least four or five vehicles. This long-lost trace makes Gao Yang temporarily unable to believe his own. eye.
"White boy, stop, we can't go now, we have to take care of Dad and Baal."
The shouts and footsteps behind him made Gao Yang wake up from the short absence, and there was a current passing through his body. After a chill, he couldn't help but Gao Yang turned back suddenly, facing the small Ba Li and Ku who followed him. Stowe shouted exhaustedly: "Go back, go back quickly."
After roaring, Gao Yang had no time to explain what the little Baal and Custo could not understand, and turned and ran back to the chief at a faster speed.
"Chief, don't leave here, you are waiting for me here, you and the bali are saved, I found ..."
When Yang Yang was excited and wanted to tell the chief that he was saved, he didn't know what he found, because the language of the Akuri tribe had no such words as tire marks.
"I found a trace, I can find white people, white people like me, they have, well, there are strange herbs, they can save you and Baal, do n’t leave here, wait for me, I will find those white people . "
Only then did Baal and Custo understand what was happening, and they knew that the Chief and Baal had been saved, and of course everyone was only excited.
"Cousteau, you stay to help Dad and Baal, and the white boy and I go to find those white men."
"No, you can run faster than me. My name is Cheetah. I will go with the white child. You stay to protect the injured dad and big bali. You are stronger than me."
"Both of you shut up. I will go by myself and listen. If you hear gunshots, run quickly. Do you know what gunshots are? Chief, you have heard gunshots, right? If I heard you guys Just leave here, do n’t wait for me to come back, if you do n’t hear the gunshots, just wait for me here, but you have to be careful, do you understand?
The chief shook his head and reached out to catch the excited high, "Don't go, UU reads the book www.uukanshu.com You don't know who they are, they are very evil, you will be killed."
Raised Yang's hand and smiled, "If I don't come back at this time tomorrow, you will go back on your own. Rest assured, Chief, you know that I am the same person as them, and I will be fine."
The chief was a little moved, and after a little hesitation, he finally nodded.
"I have forgotten that you are also a strange white man, okay, go, let Custo go with you, you must be careful."
At this time, Custo shouted vigorously: "White boy, I will go with you, if there is anything, I can help you."
Goyang thought for a while and thought that he would still take Custo with him, so that in case something happened, there could still be a personal report, so Koyang did not hesitate anymore and ran quickly along the tire seal with Custo.
It is easy to distinguish the direction of the car from the rut marks on the grass, and Gao Yang can also see that the rut mark has not been left for long. If the luck is good enough, it may not take long to find the convoy.
Although worried, Gao Yang only trot along the rut, not daring to exert too much force. He must control his rhythm so as not to persevere. To know that he has run dozens of kilometers today and has not eaten anything.
The speed of Custo is much faster than that of Gao Yang, so that Gao Yang often has to call Custo back, lest the distance between the two people be too far apart, in the language of the Akuri tribe, Baal means lion , And Custo means cheetah, as the name suggests, although Custo is the youngest, he is indeed the fastest.
