I shot it in the mouth, and I thought it would not survive. The impact of the gun knocked it back several steps, but it did not fall down. Smoke came out of its cheeks, and it looked at me more ferociously.
Invulnerable to swords and guns?
I was stunned with shock!
It was completely infuriated by me, and the furious roar that came out of its throat showed that it would not stop until it tore me to pieces.
I leaned against the wall and planned to shoot again, but the Gu Diao's front claws suddenly blocked the muzzle of my gun. With a loud bang, the whole gun exploded!
My whole hand was burnt black and I immediately collapsed to the ground in pain, while the Gu Eagle only had its front paws slightly bruised and its nails were a little black, but there was no other injury at all.
There was a brutal sound of it tearing. It came close to my face and pounced on me with a whoosh. I heard the sound and quickly rolled over to avoid it. It immediately held me down with its front paws and bit me. I quickly used my hand to block it and immediately felt the pain of my entire hand bones being torn apart. It bit me so hard that the bite force could have broken my hand bones.
I picked up a stone with my left hand and swung it towards its head. With a snap, the whole stone broke into pieces and dust flew out, but its head was not hurt at all. The base of my left hand was also injured and blood was dripping down.
It let go of my right arm and stepped on my chest with its front paws. I immediately couldn't breathe, and the last breath I took was the rotten and smelly smell that came out of its mouth!
"Damn, your mouth stinks!" I said while holding my breath, even though I knew these would be the last words I would say in my life.
It got closer and closer, and I realized that it didn't let go of my arms to give me comfort, but was preparing to swallow me up starting from my head and crush me to pieces.
For some reason, what comes to my mind now is Yunwen telling me that her birthday is today. She hinted to me that the gift she wants is for me to return safely. Her delicate lips, sweet smile, and the cool kiss that can bring luck make me extremely worried at this moment.
I really want to see her again. Even if I have to die after seeing her again, I will be willing!
Unfortunately, how could God give me this opportunity? How could this man-eating beast give me this opportunity?
Goodbye! Of course, I can no longer speak these words, I can only keep them in my heart.
It swallowed it in one gulp, and I closed my eyes, thinking it would be very painful, but I never expected that this thing suddenly just bit my hair and then stopped.
What do you mean? Humiliate me, tease me?
I opened my eyes and looked at it. This was the first time I saw it in such a panic. It even dropped its front paws from my chest and backed away, as if it was afraid of something. Its eyes became terrified and anxious, like a frightened cat.
I was confused, what was wrong with it? So I turned my head and looked in the direction it was looking, but I saw nothing, just a mountain wall, nothing more, I don't know why it was so scared?
Until I heard the creaking sound coming from the mountain wall again, the chill that penetrated into my bones made me feel creepy.
The Gu Diao left, and it left in a very embarrassed manner. You could say it fled in panic. This was the first time I saw it so frightened. It didn't even have the courage to act aggressively. Why was it so?
But no matter what, things have come to this point, and I have saved my life. This is the magic of Yunwen's lucky kiss.
Looking at the dim moonlight, I estimated the time to be just after the beginning of the Xu hour, which was around seven or eight o'clock. I hurriedly got up and went back as quickly as possible before the Gu Diao reacted and realized that he was going crazy, so that he could make it in time to fulfill Yunwen's wish.
My right hand was severely numb and the bite marks were very deep. My left hand was painful at the base of the palm. I couldn't push the cart for a while. Fortunately, I was already near the cliff and it wouldn't be difficult to get it that day. So I quickly groped around near the cliff, passed a corner near the cliff, and found the small hole that only a dog could get into.
With my huge body, it really felt like I was being humiliated when I got through that hole.
But saving your life is the most important thing. A real man can bend and stretch, and can endure grievances.
As soon as I got in, I felt hairy all over. I don't know why, maybe it was too damp and cold, the underground river started to become active again. Why did I feel like it was excited because of me?
Fortunately, I remembered that the direction of the underground river was not far from the abyss. I could walk along the water's edge by listening to the sound of water without falling. I picked up a piece of hard soil on the ground and threw it. By listening to the sound, I could tell the height and geological differences. After throwing a few pieces in a row, I had a rough idea of the route ahead.
I quickly found the spiral staircase and climbed up, calling out as I walked: "Bai Lu, Yun Wen, Ying Chun!"
I shouted several times but didn't hear any movement from them. I thought this distance was enough for them to hear me.
We continued to go up and finally arrived at the third stone chamber, which is where we usually live. Before we opened the door, we heard their voices inside.
"Let me go! Zhou Bo is still down there. We should go and rescue him. Why are you stopping me if you don't want to go? Let me go quickly!" Yunwen cried.
"Sister Yunwen, calm down. Zhou Bo will find a way to escape. Wouldn't it be more dangerous if you go on like this? Your arm hasn't healed yet, and you are still injured." Song Bailu advised.
"What if he can't escape? What if he needs us? We're just sitting here doing nothing and not even looking for help. Don't you think that's too much? I begged you when the sun was about to set, but you just didn't want to do nothing and didn't let me do anything." Yunwen argued in a crying voice.
"To be honest, if something happens to Zhou Bo, what can you do? Can you save him?" Song Bailu asked seriously.
“That’s not possible…” Yunwen was interrupted before she could finish her sentence.
"Yunwen, he might have encountered a white devil, so we can't save him. They are like the abyss behind the door. Their stomachs will never be filled. Do you understand?" Song Bailu said.
"They?" Yunwen asked.
These words made me shudder. I immediately opened the door and walked in. The girls were all extremely shocked.
I took a special look at Song Bailu, who looked a little guilty. Yunwen immediately rushed over and stuck close to me. I stroked her hair and said, "Silly, your lucky kiss is still there. You have helped me a lot. Don't always feel that you have to do more for me. In the future, you should be calm and listen to Bailu more, okay?"
She sobbed, nodded at me, and said, "As long as you are alive, I will agree to whatever you say."
Seeing the two of us like this, Song Yingchun sighed with a sour tone and continued to work on her wooden bed. It was obvious that due to her concentration, a wooden bed spliced with mortise and tenon technology had basically taken shape, and there was basically no problem for the three of us to sleep on it.
"Haven't you had dinner yet? I left a portion for you." Bai Lu said.
I walked to the end, but before I could get close enough, I collapsed to the ground, and in front of my ears and eyes, I could hear Yunwen and Bailu shaking me...
After that, I recuperated for five or six days. The wound on my arm had been treated and recovered, so I could use it without any problem. The Gu Diao had no intention of biting me to death. It was saving its strength to swallow me whole, so it hurt when it bit me, but it recovered fairly quickly.
After I recovered, the first thing I did was to go down the spiral staircase to the vicinity of the underground river, go out from the dog-hole-like place, move the wooden ox and flowing horse to the vicinity of the small cave entrance, and carry the rock back to the third-level stone chamber in three batches, ready to start making a stone mill.
We have to celebrate Yunwen's birthday and prepare festive pastries, but it has been delayed for a few days. We have to do it as soon as possible because we have promised to do it.
