Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Beast Leaping at Dusk

The snowy forest didn't seem to affect the speed of the monsters, and their lower limbs were light on the ground, and they quickly approached the target in a jumping posture.

The middle-aged man wanted to pick up his daughter to dodge, but the snow was too deep, coupled with the fear in his heart, he just picked up his daughter and turned around, and the two fell into the snow together.

At the critical moment, the razor quickly pulled the trigger, and the bullet blasted the monster that rushed to the front to pieces.

Seeing this, the other two monsters immediately changed their attack strategy and adjusted their attack target to a girl who was lying on the ground struggling and had not yet been able to stand up.

The delay caused by the razor attack on the monster gave Chen Lingfeng and the three of them a few seconds, and Ning Yu flashed in front of a monster in an instant, and the cold sword blade in his hand flipped and wiped the monster's neck, and the monster immediately turned into ice crystals and flew in all directions.

The remaining monster moved too fast, and even the short knife in Foxfire's hand was only able to cut off one of its arms, and it didn't stop the monster from attacking.

The hideous wolf face approached, and the girl's eyes were wide open, and fear had long since made her unable to make any sound.

Seeing that the girl was about to die, Chen Lingfeng stepped on the trunk of the tree on the side, and stopped in front of the girl at the moment when the monster's claws swung it.

The sharp bone blade pierced Chen Lingfeng's shoulder, stopping an inch away from the girl's face, blood dripping on her fair skin, like a blooming plum blossom.

Chen Lingfeng endured the pain, held the monster's arm with one hand, and plunged the short knife into the monster's heart with the other.

The monster snorted, and gradually stopped moving.

Chen Lingfeng covered his wounds, pulled the monster's claws out of his shoulders, and the whole person fell to the snow. The girl behind him also recovered from her panic at this time, and hugged Chen Lingfeng in her arms.

"You... How are you? Don't die! The girl pressed her hands on Chen Lingfeng's wound, and the blood flowing from the wound had stained her fingers red.

The girl lowered her head and looked at Chen Lingfeng in her arms, the ponytail tied behind her had already spread out, her long chestnut hair slipped down, and the hair brushed softly on Chen Lingfeng's face.

He looked at the tears hanging from the girl's long eyelashes and the pitiful sobs, and something indescribable was rising in his heart, like the faint fragrance of the girl's body wafting into his body, which made him a little intoxicated for a while.

"Ahem, ahem, stop crying, I can't die yet." It took Chen Lingfeng a while to wake up from that wonderful feeling, and for a moment he even expected to be in the girl's arms like this all the time.

"You... Are you really okay? The girl wiped her tears and smiled warmly.

"Hmm," Chen Lingfeng struggled to get up from the ground according to the wound. He hurried back to the Firefly Squad, his wounds were slowly healing, and he didn't want the girl to know that he was a monster like those strange beasts.

Razor looked at Chen Lingfeng who came over, he understood Chen Lingfeng's intentions, and hurriedly took out medical items from his backpack to treat and bandage Chen Lingfeng's wounds.

"Hmph, little pervert." Fox Huo crossed his waist and looked at Chen Lingfeng with a wicked smile.

"You... What did you say? Chen Lingfeng turned his face to the side, not daring to look directly into the eyes of the fox fire.

"Don't pretend, didn't you enjoy lying in someone's girl's arms just now? Look, my face is red. Fox Huo deliberately put his face in front of Chen Lingfeng.

"Which... Nothing. ”

"Don't worry, my sister won't be jealous, I'll help you, sister, I'm ......" The fox fire was immediately held down by Ning Yu without dividing the matter.

"Be quiet, we're not out of danger yet." Ning Yu Mingrui sensed that in the forest that had temporarily returned to quiet, there was still a killing machine lurking. She beckoned to the middle-aged man, motioning for him and her daughter to hurry over to the Firefly Squad.

The bloody killing in a very short period of time had made the middle-aged man lose the aura he had just now, and he soon came over with his daughter.

"My name is Yang Siya, what's your name?" As soon as the girl came over, she leaned towards Chen Lingfeng.

"I... My name is Chen Lingfeng. Looking at the girl's innocent smiling face, Chen Lingfeng stuttered a little for a while.

Ning Yu frowned and glanced at them, raised her fingers to her lips and made a silent gesture.

"Click, click" The sound of branches breaking gradually came from the silent forest, getting closer and closer, and more and more.

"Sheriff Yang, is there a place around here where I can hide?" Ning Yu whispered to the middle-aged man.

"Go back to the village, Daddy." Yang Siya replied without thinking.

"No! We can't bring those monsters back to the village. After all, Sheriff Yang was a shrewd person, and he heard the meaning of Ning Yu's words. The sound of those branches breaking was the same monster that was approaching them.

"There's an old barn around here, let's get out of there before we make plans." Sergeant Yang replied in a low voice.

Ning Yu nodded and didn't speak again, turned his head to look at the few people around him, and then commanded everyone to slowly retreat.

As soon as "Ka" withdrew from a distance of about twenty meters, Yang Siya accidentally reached out and broke a branch, and the crisp breaking sound was infinitely amplified in the silent forest.

"Run!" Almost at the same time as the branches broke, Ning Yu immediately shouted at everyone.

"Roar!" In an instant, the forest roared, and countless black shadows burst out of the snow and swooped down on their prey.

The group hurriedly retreated, and Sheriff Yang ran at the front of the team with Yang Siya. The two are worthy of being aborigines, and the routes they chose were all shallow snow. After a rush of running, everyone finally broke through the forest and came to a snowy tundra.

There is no longer a thick layer of snow, and the view is open, and the ground is covered with green moss sprinkled with ice crystals.

"Everybody come this way!" Sergeant Yang waved behind him, and the group followed closely to a relatively flat grassland in front of him.

After a while, some wooden fences and discarded farm tools appeared in front of everyone.

Sergeant Yang pointed ahead, a slightly old two-story barn stood quietly in the middle of the pasture, and the wooden gate was hidden, as if it had not been used for a long time.

The group quickly squeezed into the barn from the hidden gate, and Sergeant Yang beckoned Chen Lingfeng and Razor to close the gate together, and found an iron deadbolt to jam the wooden door.

After doing all this, everyone's tense nerves were slightly relieved.

Chen Lingfeng looked around, the space in the barn was not very large, and there were some piled grains placed at the bottom of the barn, which had become moldy and deteriorated, exuding an unpleasant smell.

On the second floor is a small wooden partition platform on which household items are placed, presumably for the barn's night watchmen.

The upper and lower floors are connected by a bamboo ladder, and due to the lack of maintenance for a long time, the climbing part of the bamboo ladder has been damaged to varying degrees.

There are no windows on the ground floor of the barn, which is good news for a group of people hiding from monsters. But the collapsed roof on the second floor was broken with a large hole, and the evening sunlight was reflecting through the hole.

"Let's double-check to make sure every place that can be opened and closed is locked." Ning Yu said to the Firefly Squad.

"Dad, those monsters haven't caught up, we should be safe." Yang Siya held her father's arm and was a little puzzled.

"We're only safe for the time being, you go over there to rest, I'll help them, everything will wait until this night is over." Sheriff Yang knew that those monsters were only afraid of the sun in the open area, and now that the sun was about to set in the west, their world was coming.

Razor climbed up to the roof from a hole in the second-story platform, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, he saw a group of glowing monsters gathering at the edge of the forest.

Little by little, the sunlight was swallowing up the shadows, and those monsters couldn't hold back anymore, gathering around and screaming, ready to move.

This night will be another life-and-death battle between man and beast.
