Chapter 13: Allow Me to Live and Die with You (1)
She had never been to the depths of such a mountain forest and had not been able to find the direction since she was a child, and at this moment, the snow everywhere covered everything exactly the same, and she was completely lost after entering the forest for a while.
"The path on the left, the path on the left ・・・・・・",
The jagged shadows of the trees obscured most of the day, and Yin Suwen silently recited the route pointed by Xinche, struggling to find a way out in the mottled forest.
Suddenly, an earth-shattering roar exploded not far away, followed by a violent snort accompanied by the sound of rumbling footsteps in the direction of Yin Suwen.
The loud sound startled the flocks of birds hiding in the woods, and even some of the smaller beasts fled one after another, indicating that the coming was a vicious beast if not some unwarranted natural disaster.
Almost at the same time, Yin Suwen clearly felt the ground under his feet begin to tremble and shake. The cold winter is so thrilling in the mountains, anything terrible can happen, there is always no danger before relying on the protection of the heart, but at the moment there is only herself, she is afraid of the footsteps, but the more anxious the more difficult it is to go fast.
In the depths of the dense forest, if you don't pay attention, you will tripped over the branches of dead trees, and the wound on your back will be torn open again not long after you have run away.
A fishy wind swept in, and the flying snow and mud were raised along with the dead branches and leaves, and the air was instantly filled with a strong smell of blood. Yin Suwen secretly screamed badly, expecting that the fierce beast was afraid that it was already close behind him, so he had to desperately run forward desperately, but he didn't want to be directly tripped by several dead blood vines and branches without standing firmly, and the whole person fell to the ground at once.
A gust of wind swept past her ears, and when she fell to the ground, she was dazzled by the sand, and only vaguely saw a sturdy figure rushing towards her, and then she felt that she was being held tightly in her arms. She was forced to follow the man and roll towards a patch of snow on her left, as a strange hand with long tan hair and black nails behind her slammed into the spot where she had fallen, smashing a large hole in the ground.
"It's you?!"
The man in front of him was Xinche, he was covered in mud and mess like himself, and his panting appearance was obviously not easy to hide from the life-saving one just now. Kankan avoided the fatal blow, Yin Suwen still had palpitations, if the palm just now was split on his body, I am afraid that there would not even be a whole corpse at this moment.
"Shh
Xin Che didn't have time to say more, so he quickly unwrapped the package on his body and stuffed it into her hands.
"Run, go all the way, don't look back!"
Before the words fell, he rushed out first with an arrow step, protecting Yin Suwen behind him.
At this moment, Yin Suwen finally saw the appearance of the monster in front of him. A huge man-bear stood upright behind the two of them, its huge body standing like an iron tower, its tan fur was dirty, and the wounds on its body were stained with blood. There was obviously a huge gap in the belly, but it did not prevent its flesh from turning out, and its intestines were staggering, dragging a long blood mark on the snow behind it with each step.
The man and bear rushed over with a fierce look, and his sharp teeth opened his bloody mouth and let out a series of shocking roars at the two of them. It also had half an arrow stuck in its mouth, obviously it had been injured by someone before it came all the way to the rage, and the blow just now missed, the man-bear at this moment was already completely enraged, and with a wave of his big palm, it instantly split the trunks of several thick trees where they were hiding.
"Let's go!"
Xin Che shouted at Yin Suwen, pulled out his scimitar and walked away against the palm wind of the man and bear.
The burden in Yin Suwen's hand was smashed by the trunk of the tree and all scattered, and the herbs and dry food inside were shattered to the ground. These are obviously chased all the way after he left, and he still didn't feel at ease after he left, wanting to give her things, but he didn't want to encounter this catastrophe.
At this time, if he escaped and only paid attention to Che alone, maybe he would really have a chance to survive, but he would definitely die, so she must not leave.
"I'm not leaving! You're going to die alone! ”
Yin Suwen shouted desperately, but his eyes wanted to cry uncontrollably. In any case, she must not abandon her savior to death.
She didn't have a sword, so she had to break the thickest and sharpest evergreen branches to defend against the enemy side by side with Xinche, but fortunately, the evergreens in Uehara Mansion were tough enough to usually be used directly as weapons or farm tools.
"The beast has been badly wounded, and is now bleeding heavily. Together, we may still have a chance. ”
Yin Suwen was stubborn, and she made up her mind that she would never leave alone. Without waiting for Xin Che to react, he neatly pulled up his long hair and lifted his weapon, standing side by side with him tightly.
Looking at the heroic look between her eyebrows, Xinche was a little distracted for a while. He never imagined that one day, there would be a strange woman who was so insistent on living and dying side by side with him.
Although the man bear was large and seriously injured, his movements were extremely fast, and he was furious and desperate to kill the two of them. Fortunately, Yin Suwen and Xinche's cooperation was surprisingly tacit, and after a few rounds, he didn't let the other party take any advantage, but Xinche's multiple wounds on his body failed to stop the bleeding, and if he lost too much blood in the deep mountains at night, it would also be dangerous. Yin Suwen wanted to fight quickly, but the physical strength of the human bear was completely beyond the expectations of the two, and before it was seriously injured and died, the two of them were obviously slowing down and their physical strength was not supported.
Seeing that Xin Che was obviously unable to support it, but still insisted on rushing ahead of himself at every moment of crisis, Yin Suwen was anxious.
A staggering heart, the heart staggered and almost fell, and before he could get up, he felt a row of sharp weapons slash across his chest, followed by a violent pain and dizziness. He only hesitated a moment when he swung the knife, and the sharp bear claws grabbed him fiercely from his chest, and although he quickly retreated to resist, he was still scratched out of a few bloody wounds. There were beads of blood dripping down his scimitar, and he couldn't tell whose blood it was.
Buddhism is compassionate and recognizes that all things have spirits, even in the face of such a ferocious beast, Xinche never thought of hurting the killer, and each knife only focused on hurting its vital point, and did not want to hurt its life, did not want the other party to be fierce, and saw that he would not be able to resist it in the next moment.
The huge figure of the man and bear shrouded him in darkness again, and the deafening roar accompanied by Yin Suwen's mournful call spread to the depths of the mountain forest, and Xin Che finally closed his eyes silently.
For a brief moment, his heart was unusually calm, and even the pain in his body seemed to be inconspicuous.
Xin Che, the reincarnated spirit boy in Yunju Temple, who has realized life and death - suffering or death - suffering or death since he was first ignorant, was convenient for the teachers and the earnest teachings of Buddhist scriptures, and he was never afraid. The abbot said that death is life, and the moment he dies, there will be a Buddhist messenger from the golden light paved with the avenue to guide him. It's just that beyond the hazy golden light, he saw a faint figure calling anxiously, and suddenly he felt a little sad.
