Chapter 19 – Engagements
It was getting late, and I don't know when the stars came out, and on the bank of the river, Yi Xiaorou and Zuo Chen rested back to back.
The clothes were all dyed blood-red, bloody and insane.
It was the result of the two of them killing for half a day, and the feeling of pain was numb after getting used to it, causing the more brave and crazy they became, and they unconsciously broke through the limit once.
If it weren't for the corpses that would have scattered after the battle, the banks of the river would have been littered with corpses with nowhere to put their feet.
The corpse will disappear, but the smell of blood will not disappear, and wherever the two go, the beasts can feel it far away.
Therefore, there are no lurks and sneak attacks at all, and many fierce beasts at the top of the food chain will be attracted by the smell of blood.
It took a lot of effort to solve the two fierce beasts, and even their health was about to bottom out.
"Here you go, Brother Chen. ”
The two of them were already exhausted from the long battle, and the beasts were afraid of the thick smell of blood on their bodies, leaving them to rest.
Taking advantage of the fact that the beast did not appear now, Yi Xiaorou took out the food and gave it to Zuo Chen.
took the fruit and bread handed by Yi Xiaorou, took two bites, and suddenly remembered what he had seen in the book.
"Don't eat too much, just eat seven or eight points full, eating too much will affect the battle. ”
"Got it, Brother Chen. Yi Xiaorou replied.
After that, the two ate silently, no one spoke, the air was quiet, the forest was quiet, and at this moment, it seemed that all the sounds had disappeared.
"Brother Chen~" After eating, Yi Xiaorou lowered her head and talked to Zuo Chen, her face gloomy.
"What's wrong, Xiaorou. From the tone of his voice, he sensed that there was something wrong with Yi Xiaorou, and Zuo Chen was a little worried.
"I miss grandma!" put his arms around his knees, buried his head in it, and spoke with a trill, as if he was crying and didn't seem to be crying, anyway, Zuo Chen couldn't see it.
"There are only two people in the family, Xiaorou and grandma, she is not in good health, usually Xiaorou is taking care of her, and now that Xiaorou is gone, I don't know if grandma will be sick without anyone to take care of her. ”
As she spoke, Yi Xiaorou's trills became more and more serious, and she might have cried again.
Yi Xiaorou's words suddenly pulled Zuo Chen's thoughts back to the real world, and he had been avoiding them all along.
Don't think about it, because it's useless to think about it, it's better if there is rescue, and if not, then you can only create a way by your own efforts.
"It's okay, don't worry!" Zuo Chen said comfortingly, tilting his head back slightly and touching Yi Xiaorou's head.
After all, the kingdom will take care of them at all times.
"En~" Although Yi Xiaorou also knew that the kingdom would take care of it, she was still very worried.
"If you're still worried, get stronger as soon as possible and go back, are you ready for it?"
Zuo Chen stood up, clenched his sword and shield, his eyes revealed resoluteness, he also made up his mind to go back early.
"Of course!" Yi Xiaorou also stood up, her determination stronger than Zuo Chen's, and her weak and bullying appearance gradually turned into madness.
The madness of one person, the madness of two people, together, the momentum is not feared.
"Ahh
While the two were chatting, eight wolves were attracted by the smell of blood and surrounded them.
Each wolf is extremely strong, a full two meters tall, with huge, thick fangs, and even when buried in the ground, you can still see the claws that glow through the ghost.
It must be a fierce battle, a fierce battle of life and death.
Eight wolves attacked at the same time, and their cooperation was even more tacit than the two.
Fly two people from eight directions, and the attacking stance will not hit your companion even if it is dodged.
In the first round of attacks, although he desperately dodged, he was inevitably injured in the face of experienced wolves.
Wounds on the arms, shoulders, calves, and thighs were all cut out of small sizes, and the pain instantly spread throughout the body.
Even if you are used to the pain of being injured, it will still affect the battle, and every action will pull the wound and cause two or three damages.
Even so, the fighting spirit of the two is still high, and they are not afraid at all.
Zuo Chen's mind is very level, he has been looking for a breakthrough while being attacked, wanting to break the encirclement.
The pack of wolves that were constantly walking around the two of them attacked again, and only once.
has such a big advantage and patiently looks for the flaws of the two, which is even more difficult to deal with than imagined, without making a single mistake, and not giving a chance at all.
"Xiaorou, I'll definitely bring you back safely, so don't die. ”
Zuo Chen roared angrily, since he couldn't find a flaw, he made a flaw, and rushed over after choosing a direction.
"Brother Chen~" Seeing Zuo Chen's consciousness, Yi Xiaorou was worried and a little sweet, just like using bitter gourd to make honey to eat, and her mood was very complicated.
"I see! I'm not going to die anyway. Yi Xiaorou said out loud and followed behind Zuo Chen.
A long, long time ago, except for her grandmother, Zuo Chen was the only one who was good to her, helped her, loved her, and protected her, he taught her how to express her feelings and say what was in her heart, so that her originally gloomy and depressed world could be brightened and reborn.
It can be said that this lively, cute and cheerful Yi Xiaorou was created by Zuo Chen, and it took a lot of energy and time to make her change from well-behaved and withdrawn to lively and cheerful.
So for Yi Xiaorou, Zuo Chen is the most important person besides her grandmother, and the only one who has come to her heart.
In fact, Yi Xiaorou still had a sentence that she hadn't said before, a sentence that could only be buried in her heart.
[If it's for Brother Chen, I'm willing!]
In Zuo Chen's desperate encirclement regardless of his injury, he was forced to break away, which was related to the wolves deliberately letting go, after all, their speed was not as fast as the wolves living in the forest.
Just as the wolves thought, Zuo Chen also understood in his heart, so after leaving the encirclement, he stopped and turned to face the wolves and prepared to charge.
The preparation was prepared like this, but the plan couldn't catch up with the change, and Yi Xiaorou, who had been staying behind him and listening to whatever he said, stopped him.
Obviously he had never resisted him, let alone stopped him.
"Brother Chen, let me go!" Although Yi Xiaorou didn't say much, Zuo Chen felt her determination, and even if he stopped her, she wouldn't listen.
A rare smile.
"Do whatever you want!"
Zuo Chen never forced Yi Xiaorou to do anything.
The eight wolves in front of them are hunched and can pounce at any time, injuries are inevitable, and they may die, but it doesn't matter.
"Hah~"
Yi Xiaorou rushed up and opened the way for Zuo Chen, even if a few wolves flew in, she didn't dodge, and hit it hard, creating an opportunity for Zuo Chen to attack.
Zuo Chen didn't let her down, taking advantage of a wolf's unstable shape, he first attacked its head with a shield strike, hitting it dizzy, and then pierced the stomach with a short sword, and instantly opened the intestines with a strong stroke.
The wolf fell to the ground and struggled a few times, its entrails flowing out motionless.
