Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 10: Snoop

The lake forest in the middle of the night is not bleak, the moonlight passing through the trunks and broad-leaved branches is mysterious and cold, it leaks sparsely from the dense canopy, dotted with silver-white light spots on the black humus.

The white-haired boy dragged the corpse wrapped in tarpaulin, walking in the depths of the lake forest away from the forest road.

The heavy corpse sank into the rotting leaves and soft soil, and it needed to be dragged hard to make it move forward slowly, leaving a rather obvious mark.

"The primeval jungle is outrageous."

The tropical jungle near the sea is extremely humid at night, and Ian's thin linen clothes are mixed with sweat and moisture, sticking tightly to his skin, which is extremely uncomfortable, and he has to pay attention to the dark green moss under his feet, which is also Wet and slippery things cover every part of this jungle, whether it is tree roots, stones or rotten wood, if you step on it accidentally, you will fall.

Ian dragged the corpse for a while, and then he had to stop and take a rest. He wiped the sweat off his head with his cuff, gasped, and couldn't help complaining: "The rotten leaves are at least a foot deep, I doubt I even need them." Just dig a hole and just cover people under the leaves."

That's what I said, but Ian still brought a shovel, and he didn't intend to save this effort.

Ian is very clear that it is difficult to cover up the traces of dragging Ossena's body, but the place in Hulin is changing rapidly, and everything will return to its original state in a few days. He is not worried that the dragging marks will be discovered , even if it is discovered, it is estimated that it was made by a crazy wild boar.

In the beginning, Ian also thought about carrying the corpse, but not to mention that carrying the corpse will consume more energy. Because of the pressure, he will be stuck in the too soft land of the lake forest while carrying the corpse. And rotten leaves, every step is to get stuck, just like walking on snow.

However, the strange thing is that even if Ian has to take a rest after walking for a while, until now, he has not felt the 'tiredness of being unable to move'.

On the contrary, the more he exercised, the more he felt an endless stream of physical strength being released from the inside of his body, spreading to all his limbs.

Ian touched his lower abdomen, he was thoughtful.

The grilled fish and venison he ate before seemed to be a source of strength, and the melting heat flowed out from his abdomen, so that he only needed to stop and take a few breaths, and his whole body was full of energy again—— As he exhausted his energy again and again, and waited for his energy to recover, Ian found that even his drowsiness disappeared, his whole body was refreshed, and his mind became more sensitive.

There is no doubt that this is the result of the abnormal digestion and conversion efficiency of physical power.

The food he ate quickly provided him with a lot of physical strength, and it was with this that he had enough strength to reach the depths of the lake forest.

"But you'll be hungry soon."

Feeling the physical strength gushing out of his body, Ian understands the price of this extraordinary energy, and he can't help thinking about the future with some anxiety: "How much food is there at home? I'm afraid I won't be able to eat a few meals."

"If I want to ensure my normal development and growth in the future, I will definitely need more food"

Fortunately, this is a coastal port, and there are many rivers and lakes next to it, so it is not difficult to catch fish.

But even so, finding a sufficient source of food is still a big problem for Ian. After all, the Air Force can't go to the fish market to buy fish every time, can it?

The destination of Ian's trip was the edge of one of the small lakes deep in the lake forest.

One of the reasons is naturally that there are few people there, but the most important thing is that Ian needs a lot of water to complete a very important thing for him.

For this reason, he deliberately brought a lot of tools in a bag of wheat, even if he was inconvenient, he insisted on doing so.

Of course, even though the journey was difficult and exhausting, Ian did not relax his vigilance.

This is also the reason why he was able to notice the strange breathing sound from the bushes not far away at the first time.

A black shadow lurks in the canopy of a broad-leaved tree on one side. It is extremely concealed and moves silently, not even disturbing a single leaf.

If it wasn't for Ian's facial features becoming more acute after he awakened his psychic powers, and he could detect the slight movement of the moonlight not far away, he really wouldn't be able to spot that shadow.

Without hesitation, Ian took a step back. He reached out to grab the pitchfork behind him—he had predicted that he would encounter danger in the lake forest, so how could he not be armed?

Knowing that he has been discovered, the black shadow no longer hides it. It jumped straight down from the tree, bringing with it a foul smelling wind. Ian heard a low guttural roar. Na's body pushed forward and smashed towards the shadow.

The black shadow naturally didn't want to be hit by the dead body of a grown man, so it deftly stepped on the air, stepped on the dead body and jumped away. Stare at Ian.

Clutching the pitchfork in his hand, the boy stared intently. He saw a big mouth full of sharp yellow and white teeth, and a long red tongue dripping sticky saliva.

A forest leopard.

There is a big difference between the male and female of this creature. The male leopard is ferocious and brutal, and cannot be tamed unless it is cultivated from an early age. It can grow to a height of more than one meter at the shoulder and weigh over 200 kilograms; It weighs more than 50 kilograms, and it is often used as a partner of the aborigines to hunt animals.

The good news is that this is a female leopard, and the food is obviously insufficient, so it doesn't matter whether it can weigh more than 30 kilograms.

The bad news is that killing a human cub by a feline predator is obviously the same as drinking soup-he is now estimated to be in his early fours, and weighs about half the weight of the other.

"Huh."

Heaving a sigh of relief, Ian held the pitchfork with both hands and the bottom of the fork head with one hand, so that he could hold it more stably, and he could extend the pitchfork at any time if necessary.

His gaze was focused on Lin Leopard from beginning to end. Ian could tell that the female leopard was afraid of him, otherwise he would have attacked again—and he knew very well that he could only defend himself against a leopard. Feline predators do not have the right to actively attack themselves.

Unless

Ian took a step forward, which caused Lin Bao to arch his back immediately, alerting to the coming attack—but contrary to expectations, the boy kicked Ossena's body forward on the ground kick away.

The corpse rolled, the tarpaulin wrapped around the corpse spread out, and the smell of blood and meat overflowed, Lin Bao was distracted for a moment, the smell of flesh and blood made him even hungrier, and his attention was instinctively diverted.

At this moment, Ian was holding the pitchfork tightly, staring at the distracted Lin Bao in front of him.

He steps forward.

And a golden light followed closely behind him.

Golden light followed early on.

At that time, the sky was still dark, under the brilliance of the setting sun, the hot summer wind was blowing, and the blue-gray clouds were slowly moving towards the west. both sides of the line.

A dusky twilight hangs over the Harrison Harbor sky, a reddish-orange glow covering the sea and down to the street.

The old knight was walking on the deserted streets, his taupe eyes staring at the sea and the setting sun in the distance.

The man has traveled far and wide, and it seems that he has not stayed in a certain place to rest quietly for a long time. He looks very strong, his face is not particularly old, but his hair is gray and white, showing signs of premature aging.

He has been back in Port Harris for some time. Thanks to the storm eight years ago, many houses in the harbor were in ruins, and some areas were completely abandoned, and have not been rebuilt until now.

Although he no longer has the strength he had many years ago, he can still do it just by staying in the city, hiding traces of his existence, and living with them without anyone knowing. .

In the setting sun, the city looks dilapidated and no longer the glory of its heyday. The old knight can't help recalling some things, feeling a little sad.

Harrison Port, a small outpost built in the pioneering era, has now become the southernmost port of the empire, connecting the flames and the Canaan Moore sea trade route. After the 'rebellion' and the storm eight years ago, it may have become the brightest pearl in the southern part of the empire.

Once upon a time, men placed far more expectations on this port than anyone else.

It's just that, as time goes by, Harrison Port will inevitably fall into stagnation like other cities on this land.

"Ah"

Sighing, the old knight shook his head slightly. I am indeed getting old, but just a mere sunset will make my imagination run wild.

Pressing his mind, he continued to walk.

Gangdong suffered the heaviest storm that year, and there are not many people living here. Now there are no people on both sides of the entire street. Only at night can you see a little light, and it will soon go out.

Hidden here, the least likely to be found.

But today, the old knight noticed something different. He smelled a faint smell of blood, which came from an old house, but the breathing sound was only one big, one small, two small. child's voice.

Raising his eyebrows, he walked forward and came to the window quietly.
