After the enemy fled, the gnomes held their daggers in both hands and carefully cleared the field where they had just fought.

It turns out that after the battle, there will always be some enemies who are not dead, some of these enemies lie on the ground and moan, and some lie on the ground and pretend to be dead.

Why do those who lie down moan and those who lie on their stomachs play dead?

This is because a living person needs to breathe, and the breath will have a heartbeat, the chest will rise and fall, the chest will rise and fall obviously, it will naturally be noticed by the other party, and if you lie on the ground, the rise and fall of the chest will be suppressed by your own weight, although the body will still rise and fall slightly with the breath, but the effect is obviously much better than lying down, and when the person is lying down, the face is facing down, you can't see the enemy, and you don't have to worry about the enemy seeing your nervous expression.

The dwarf is obviously a master of war, and the battle just now has already shown his strength, and his strength is definitely inversely proportional to his appearance and figure, and he has killed more than a dozen people alone.

The dwarf carefully examined the corpses, dead or alive, and used a sharp dagger to make a stab in the heart or neck of the corpse.

If the knife is pierced on the corpse, there is naturally not much reaction, and even if the heart of the corpse is pierced, the bleeding will not spurt out, and when it pierces the person who is pretending to be dead, it is usually accompanied by a lifetime of miserable screams, and if the heart of the living person is pierced, it will cause blood to spurt out.

You must know that the heart is the strongest blood supply in the human body, in fact, it is a biological water pump, the frequency is about 70 times a minute, and the pressure of the heart is very strong, you can squirt a full two liters of blood to a height of ten meters with a contraction, that is to say, if a living person is suddenly cut off from the head, the blood in the neck can easily be sprayed to a height of ten meters.

The blood splashed often used in martial arts is not unreasonable.

The gnomes checked the corpses on the ground one by one, and as a result, they found two cowards who pretended to be dead, but these cowards who pretended to be dead also turned into poor real dead ghosts under the daggers of the gnomes.

After checking the battlefield, both Mori and Rocky found a weapon to put on their bodies, they killed a horse, cut the horse's neck open, and put the hot horse blood into a container, which is said to have a high nutritional value, and can be used to replenish both water and nutrition for the body when necessary.

However, Ji Ran didn't dare to try it, let alone raw horse blood, even boiled or delicious horse blood, she didn't have the courage to try it.

Of course, Sen Feng and Milia, who are also from the elf clan, also did not have the courage, only Rocky tasted it boldly, but vomited again, because the horse blood is too bloody, especially the horse blood with temperature, it will make people feel like vomiting as soon as they enter it.

The dwarf cut the horse's neck, and the blood began to flow out, the dwarf is a very experienced hunter, he did not cut the horse's artery, because the artery bleeds quickly and is not easy to store, so he cut the horse's meridians, and the flow rate of the meridians is naturally much slower, so that the dwarf can calmly receive two bags of horse blood.

When the horse was lying on the ground bleeding, it did not die, it lay on the ground weakly, a pair of big black eyes were waiting very big, and the eyes were full of horror, it can be seen that it was very afraid, or it also felt the coming of death, but excessive fear made it lie on the ground, not daring to move, allowing the blood to continue to flow out of its neck.

Ji Ran looked at the horse in such pain, and felt an indescribable depression in his heart, this is also a fresh life, and he was actually killed like this.

However, in the human world, this kind of killing is carried out every day, and human beings are the cruelest butchers in the world, whether it is a man or a woman, or an old man or child, they are all cruel butchers, even if it is a three-year-old child, when you bring the braised pork to his mouth, he can't help but drool and feast.

In fact, the meat of these animals is all obtained from slaughter, and humans treat almost all animals except their own kind as food, which is terrible to think about.

The dwarf looked at Ji Ran's frightened eyes, and immediately ripped off a piece of cloth and covered the horse's eyes.

This can make the horse quiet, and it can also make Ji Ran's heart feel a little less guilty.

After taking two bags of horse blood, the dwarf cut open the horse's belly with a knife and cut off some of the internal organs and leg meat, which could be used as food.

When everything was ready, a few people left.

They knew that Hardeman would never give up, and would definitely send someone to chase him, and the next time he came, maybe more people.

Ji Ran and his party followed the dwarfs until noon, when two forks suddenly appeared in front of them, one leading to the dark forest, and the other was a wide avenue.

The dwarf did not hesitate to take Ji Ran and his party into the forest, although the forest is more dangerous, but at least it can provide some concealment, if you take the main road, it will be easy to be caught up by the other party, and there is nowhere to hide.

After the group entered the forest, the dwarfs did not go some distance, and they would make a mark on the back of a tree, and the mark was very miscellaneous, neither shoulders nor triangles, but circles, and when they reached the fork in the road, they were also circles.

Ji Ran was a little puzzled, "Why do you use circles as marks?" If it's an arrow, at least it can point to the direction, and if it's a circle, how can you tell the direction? ”

"If you mark the arrow, although you can clearly identify the direction, it is also equivalent to telling the other party where I am, this is an act of looking for death, and the circle will confuse the enemy, only you know what it means, and the enemy does not know at all." The dwarf explained to Ji Ran.

Hearing the dwarf's explanation, Ji Ran was a little more in awe of him, this is really not a simple dwarf, he is simply a grandmaster-level professional killer.

In the evening, the people found a high ground in the forest and stopped.

Just as Rocky was looking for some firewood to make a fire, he was stopped by the gnomes.

It turns out that at night, it is not allowed to make a fire in the forest, which will produce thick smoke and fire, which is very conspicuous in the dark night, and can be seen from several kilometers away, which will undoubtedly reveal their location.

If you want to hide yourself well, you must not start a fire.

"If we don't make a fire, what will we eat?" Rocky asked, looking at the gnome.

The dwarf took two bags of horse blood, cut the horse's leg as well, and threw it on a sheepskin.

After half a day of drying, the pork leg has become a little dry, a bit like jerky, but it still retains a lot of moisture inside.

"If you don't feel good, you can add some salt." As he spoke, the dwarf took out a small black box from his bosom, took a little salt, and sprinkled it on the horse's leg.
