CH.29 Good Intentions

This sentence was like stepping on Bereg's tail, he turned his head sideways, glared at his companion next to him, and said angrily: "Ask him what he is doing here?" We are not ignorant of the way. ”

"Commander, don't be stubborn, we were chased by the Weasel King and fled in all directions, and we have long deviated from the right path and lost our way. Now we're just going back by feeling, not the way we know it at all. The reprimanded adventurer lowered his voice and said.

"We know the approximate location of the Iron Cannon Harbor, and we have a compass in our hands to guide the direction, as long as we feel it, we can walk back, there is no need to ask strangers for directions, you are doing this redundantly." Berego gestured ahead and motioned for his men to move on and not linger.

The man's shouting was so loud that An Rui took it all into his ears. He stopped, looked at Berego and the others who were muttering, and asked, "Are you lost?" ”

"No, we're not lost." Berego replied first, preventing his men from talking too much.

"If you get lost, I can show you the way back and draw you a simple map." An Rui said kindly.

"As I said, we didn't get lost, you don't have to meddle with it. We have been here at least a dozen times in this foggy forest, how can we get lost. Berego turned, ignoring Anrui, and led the four men away.

An Rui looked at the disappeared backs of Berego, touched his chin, and shook his head slightly. The Misty Forest is no ordinary forest, it is shrouded in smoke all year round, and even if you walk through a dozen trips, you may still get lost. If the Beregos do get lost, the situation will be even worse, and if they accidentally break into the Weasel Lair, they will even have to worry about their lives.

"Captain, shall we help them? They're all wounded, they're being targeted by monsters, and I'm afraid something will happen to them. Sha Fei on the side asked tentatively with a worried look on her face.

"They're just strangers, why are you so worried about them?" An Rui asked rhetorically.

"Strangers are human beings, they are in danger, and we are worried that something is wrong with them." Shafi replied as a matter of course.

An Rui was dumbfounded, Sha Fei after amnesia was really full of sympathy, if she changed to the previous Sha Fei, she would not care about the life or death of strangers.

Now that Shafi had brought up the matter, he had to think carefully about whether or not he wanted to help. If it is for the sake of the safety of Berego and the others, he should indeed lend a helping hand and help them. However, Berego's tone was very bad just now, and he even said tough words like "I don't need you to be nosy", which greatly reduced his enthusiasm to help others, and he didn't want to use a hot face to post a cold ass.

Seeing An Rui's hesitation, Sha Fei pursed her lips and whispered, "Captain, just help them." I really don't want to die without help. ”

The voice was soft and soft, like a trickling stream blowing through his heart, instantly changing An Rui's thoughts. He smiled wryly and compromised, "Okay. As you wish, we'll help them and get them out of the Misty Forest. This time, for your sake, I don't sympathize with Berego, the self-righteous leader of the adventure group. ”

"Well, I'll thank you for them first." Shafei smiled, her smile soft and moving, like a flower blooming in early spring.

An Rui looked at the beautiful face in front of him, and couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds, before coming back to his senses. He coughed awkwardly, pointed in the direction where Berego and the others had gone, and chased after them first.

Berego and the others were all injured, and their speed was limited, and they didn't go very far. An Rui and the others quickly caught up with them and stopped them.

"What are you doing here? Do you want us to protect you? Berego asked with a cold expression.

As soon as he heard this, An Rui was angry and immediately had the idea of retreating, if it weren't for Sha Fei's face, he would probably have turned around and left.

Probably sensing An Rui's sullenness, Sha Fei preemptively answered: "We are not here to seek protection, but to protect you. You've been wounded, you've gotten lost, and you've gotten into trouble with a terrible monster like the Weasel King, and you're in a terrible situation. Anrui and I want to protect you from the Misty Forest before anything happens to you. ”

"You two want to come and protect us?" Berego asked unexpectedly.

"Yes." Sha Fei nodded, paused, and then added, "Don't underestimate the two of us, we still have a little ability, and we will definitely be able to help you." And we're not going to ask for anything, just to help. ”

"In this way, you are very kind, but ......," Berego said in a long voice, and his expression did not change to joy, but became more grim, "I don't trust strangers, especially in this kind of place, who knows what the hell you are up to. I've seen a lot of people who are different from each other, and they keep saying they want to help, but in fact they are plotting against us, and I don't dare to let strangers like you stay with us. If you give one of us a sword while we rest, we'll be doomed. ”

"No, we're not such bad people, we really just want to help you, please ......" Sha Fei was a little flustered and quickly explained.

"That's enough, Shafi!" Anrui's fists clenched, his chest heaving like a bellows made of cast iron. His previous kind expression was gone, and the expressions on his faces when he looked at Berego and the others lost any warmth. "Since people don't believe us, let's stop bothering them."

"But ......"

"No, let's go." An Rui frowned, reached out and grabbed Shafi's wrist, pulling the latter away from Berego and the others.

Berego looked at the back of An Rui and the others leaving, his expression changed several times, and he snorted and led a few of his subordinates to leave.

After walking a long way, An Rui let go of the hand holding Sha Fei's wrist and said angrily: "That blind fool actually regarded us as bad people, and he was really kind to be treated as a donkey's liver and lungs. It's a shame that we still want to help them, it's a lot of things, like that kind of idiot, who deserves to be killed by the Weasel King! ”

"Don't be so angry, in fact, his worries are not unreasonable, when you meet strangers outside, you should be more vigilant. Alas, since he doesn't believe us, then we can't help it. Let's just hope they'll be lucky and don't run into the Weasel King again. Sophie's eyes drooped, and a look of pity appeared in her eyes.

"Why don't you touch it? It would be interesting for them to meet the Weasel King again. I'll see how a few of their remnants will fight against the Weasel King. Anrui cursed maliciously.

"Don't say that." Shafi was a little dissatisfied, and nudged An Rui's shoulder.

An Rui snorted, suppressing the evil fire in his chest, it was really not worth it to be angry for a stranger, so don't dwell on this matter.

"Listen." Shafi suddenly heard something and assumed a posture of listening.

An Rui was stunned for a moment, then followed his words, closed his mouth, and listened to the wind and grass around him.

"Whew! Swish! Swish! ”

In the distance, there was a sound of breaking the air, from far to near, and the speed was very fast. This noise is very unusual, it is not something that ordinary small animals can make, and only large creatures can make such a loud noise when they are moving rapidly.

Could it be...... Weasel King?

Listening to this unusual sound, An Rui naturally guessed this possibility, and immediately raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his vigilance, and pulled out his long sword.

"It's probably the Weasel King, be careful." He gave Shafi a wake-up call, sword in hand, and stared in the direction where the sound was coming from.

Shafi still clearly remembered the injuries suffered by Berego and the others, and she had a certain fear of the Weasel King, so she didn't dare to underestimate it too much, and just like An Rui, she also pulled out her weapon.

The two of them held their breath and stared at the source of the sound, ready for battle.

The sound was getting closer and closer, as if an invisible shadow had been cast on, and it was under the hood of the two of them, bringing great pressure.

An Rui's hand moved slightly, adjusting the posture of holding the sword.

The surrounding fog became restless, fluctuating visibly with a slight vibration. Only a large creature can whip up such a current of air and step on such a vibration.

In the next moment, An Rui imagined the scene of the Weasel King breaking through the fog and swooping over, and secretly cursed damn it. He really didn't want to be a shield for Beregor and the others to stop this Weasel King, but it had already happened, and there was no choice at all.

The amplitude of the fog fluctuations suddenly increased, and the shaking of the ground became more pronounced, and An Rui's heart rose to his throat.

But the expected bad things didn't happen, and all kinds of abnormalities came and went faster.

The noises, fluctuations, and vibrations suddenly weakened rapidly, disappearing in the other direction.

Anrui and Shafi stood still with their weapons in hand, waiting silently for several minutes.

"It seems to run over in one go." An Rui slowly put down the long sword in his hand, his tense muscles gradually relaxed, and the wariness on his face also faded.

"It seems like this." Sophie nodded, and simply inserted the cutlass back into its scabbard.

"I don't know if the big guy who ran over just now is the Weasel King."

"If it's really the Weasel King, the Beregos will be in bad luck. The Weasel King is likely to follow the scent to catch up with them and take revenge on the blind and attack them. Sophie said worriedly.

"Don't worry about those people, you haven't seen Bereg's attitude, why bother with this kind of person? Ignore them and continue on our way, trying to reach our destination through the forest before nightfall. Anrui interrupted Shafi's extra compassion and got back on her way.

Shafi followed, and when she was halfway there, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at the fog where the sound had disappeared.

The white fog was so thick that nothing could be seen at all.
