Chapter 11: Thrilling
Qin E's mouth was firmly covered by Meng Jingke, her heart was beating fast, and without thinking about it, she took out an iron cone from her sleeve and stabbed it into his arm with all her might. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Meng Jingke let out a soft "huh", and quickly snatched the iron cone in her hand, but the hand covering her mouth did not move at all.
Qin E lost her support, despair and fear made her hands and feet weak, but she still struggled hard.
At this time, I heard Meng Jingke whisper close to the root of her ear: "Don't make a sound, there is movement outside." ”
Qin E's struggle came to an abrupt end, and she looked at Meng Jingke with wide eyes.
Seeing that she was no longer struggling, Meng Jingke said in a low voice: "I let go of my hand, don't scream, and don't move." ”
Qin E nodded again and again.
Meng Jingke slowly let go of his hand.
Qin E looked at him motionlessly.
Meng Jingke nodded with satisfaction, took out a small piece of black stuff from his arms and threw it into the bonfire that was about to burn out, and looked out of the cave again.
Only then did Qin E believe that he really had no ill will towards him, and his body was weak and almost fell into the fire. After taking a few deep breaths, he forced himself to calm down, and observed the movement outside the cave in the same way as Meng Jingke.
The sound of falling snow was sandwiched in the whining wind, except for the crackling sound of the firewood burning, Qin E didn't find anything abnormal.
But she didn't dare to make trouble, so she had to hold her breath and look at Meng Jingke. There seems to be a faint fragrance wafting from the tip of the nose, which is so faint that you can't smell it anymore. If it weren't for the cold air in this barren mountain and snow ridge, if it weren't for Qin E's nose that has always been sensitive, I'm afraid I would still think it was an illusion.
Qin E's eyes drifted towards the bonfire, guessing that it was the aroma from the thing that Meng Jingke had just thrown in.
What did he throw this for?
Qin E couldn't help but think about it.
After about a cup of tea, Qin E felt that the earth was as long as a wilderness. The tense muscles were stiff and sore, she frowned uncomfortably, and suddenly her eyes darkened, and the whole person was thrown to the ground.
I saw Meng Jingke jump up from her side, raising his sword and rushing towards a white light and shadow. The handover of weapons made a series of clanging metal sounds, and suddenly there was a "ding" sound, and the white light and shadow disappeared suddenly, and a person fell to the ground softly.
Everything was between lightning and flint, and before Qin E could react, a life-threatening battle was over.
Meng Jingke took three steps back, the tip of his sword was on the ground to support his body, he gasped a few times, there was a dense layer of sweat on his forehead, but his eyes were as sharp as eagle eyes, and he snorted disdainfully at the corpse on the ground. Raising his head, his eyes swept over coldly, and he bumped into Qin E, who was bloodless and trembling slightly.
Even if he didn't need to read minds, Meng Jingke knew that Qin E was frightened. Wan Nian Resolute Heart rarely hesitated, and comforted: "It's okay, you don't have to be afraid, it won't affect you." After speaking, he took out the iron cone like a trick, raised his eyebrows and said, "You still hide this?"
Qin E shrunk her feet, trying not to touch the corpse lying at her feet, tried her best to swallow the scream in her throat, and stumbled: "I'm sorry, I thought, I thought it was ......"
"Think I'm going to bully you, I'm going to kill you?"
Qin E didn't dare to answer.
Meng Jingke smiled and said, "You are quite smart, you know how to use an iron cone." I thought you would find a silver hairpin or something, those things are too soft, it's okay to hurt yourself, if you want to defend yourself, a little force will break. Or is it more practical to have an iron cone. Meng Jingke threw the things to her: "Put it away." ”
Qin E picked it up from the ground and held it in her hand. It is said to be an iron cone, but it is actually an iron rod three inches long, half a finger thick, sharpened head. It was she who deliberately hid herself before entering the mountain, in case she encountered danger to defend herself. Thinking of his recklessness just now, he blushed a little for a while, and his fear was alleviated a lot.
"Are you alright?"
Meng Jingke shook his head, and Qin E didn't know if it was okay or bad. Then he said, "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, we have to change places." ”
Qin E looked at the heavy snow outside the cave, where to hide in this weather?
But looking at Meng Jingke's face, there is obviously no room for negotiation. didn't dare to ask more, hurriedly packed his backpack, watched Meng Jingke step on the fire extinguisher, and picked up a smoking black thing from it with the tip of his sword, and he was not afraid of being hot, so he picked it up directly into the palm of his hand.
Qin E couldn't help but ask, "What is this?"
Meng Jingke glanced at her and handed it to her: "This is a wooden bone, which can drive away beasts when lit." ”
Qin E put it under her nose and sniffed it, but there was no taste, and handed it back to Meng Jingke. Meng Jingke didn't answer. "You can keep it. ”
Qin E was a little surprised, she knew that the more inconspicuous some things looked, the more precious and rare they were. This man is a dignified person in a position, and he is mysterious and secretive, and what he carries with him must not be an idle thing. The so-called merit is not reluctant, and he subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Meng Jingke turned around nonchalantly and carefully looked at the black-clothed man on the ground who was blocked by a sword.
Qin E didn't know why, she was nervous about the man in front of her, but she wasn't afraid, even if this person had just killed someone in front of her. And the man seems to be silent and cold, but he is very attentive and can always soothe her emotions.
Qin E carefully put away her things, leaned over and asked, "What about this person?"
"Don't worry about it, it's a bear hole, and when the beast comes back, he'll naturally clean it up. ”
"Bear Cave!?" Qin E was taken aback and quickly looked around. Meng Jingke said: "Yes, otherwise how could it be so stinky?"
Qin E was surprised, she thought that the caves were all so stinky.
"Isn't the bear hibernating in winter? Why isn't it in the cave on this cold day?" After a while, it suddenly dawned: "It's cold early this year, I'm afraid I'm not ready to hibernate and go out to hunt." It's cheaper for us. ”
"Do you still know that dogs and bears hibernating?" Meng Jingke was a little surprised, didn't the young ladies in the boudoir learn some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and practice female red? The little cousin of my grandfather's family is so naughty and naughty, but if you ask her this, I am afraid that she will also have black eyes.
Qin E was speechless and said, "Country girl, naturally I know." "Xindao, this is what my little uncle told her when she was a child. The little uncle traveled from south to north, I don't know how many strange things he had seen, how many strange things he had encountered, and every time he came back, he would hold her on his lap and tell him about it carefully. Uncle Xiao said that although the female baby of our Shen family can't go out, she must learn and watch more like the male baby.
Thinking of the little uncle who was in the wind but his whereabouts were unknown, and thinking of the ancestral family that was destroyed, Qin E's heart hurt again.
Meng Jingke sensitively captured Qin E's emotions, and those bright eyes suddenly dimmed, full of sadness, making him full of curiosity to find out, but he couldn't do it. This unprecedented helplessness made him scratch his heart, so he had to take a deep breath and said: "That beast has already come back just now, and I ordered the wooden bone, so it didn't dare to approach." Now that the bone is extinguished, it will come back soon, and we must leave quickly......"
As if in response, as soon as Meng Jingke's words fell, he heard a bear roar not far away, and the shaking snow seemed to stop.
Qin E looked at Meng Jingke in amazement, Meng Jingke frowned slightly, his eyes were cold, and he raised the long sword in his hand to block her behind her.
