The Shadow of Xiangxi Chapter 18 The crisis is resolved

After a while, we entered the forest, and after entering the forest, the already dark sky suddenly became almost completely dark, and we did not have a headlamp, and our eyes did not adapt to the darkness for a while, so it was almost blindfolded.

Suddenly, I heard the dragon all behind me telling me to be careful, and before I could look back, I felt a gust of wind coming, and the white-haired monster fell from the sky and jumped in front of me.

I was running fast, and the woodland was slippery, so I couldn't stop for a moment, and could only watch myself rush into the arms of the white-haired monster.

At this moment, there was a sound of breaking wind in my ears, and there was no need to guess that it was Long Quan's crossbow arrow.

The dragon had finished shooting all the arrows, and was still shouting behind me:

"Come on, white-haired brute, your father is here!"

I don't know if the white-haired monster understood Long Quan's words, or was distracted by the crossbow arrow, it actually jumped away from me, and then went to chase Long Quan.

When I had found a vacancy, I ran as fast as I could, and when my eyes had become accustomed to the darkness, I turned around and struck the white-haired monster in the back, which staggered to a halt, and then turned around and swung at me again from the tree.

In this way, Long Quan and I went one after the other, attracting the white-haired monster deep into the heart of the forest.

I figured out that we should get to the place where Erwa had set a trap according to the time, but the trees in the forest were staggered, and I wasn't quite sure.

Finally, after Long Quan led away the white-haired monster again, I saw a little fire in front of the forest, needless to say, it must be the second baby.

I shouted at Long Quan that I saw the two babies and them, and then I raised my bow again and shot an arrow at the white-haired monster.

Long Quan understood what I meant, and when I lured the white-haired monster away, I saw him quickly galloping towards the firelight.

After a while, the dragon turned back, drew the white-haired monster away from behind me once more, and ran towards the fire with all his might.

I followed the white-haired monster with my crossbow and saw that I was getting closer and closer to the fire, when suddenly the dragon stopped, turned around, and threw the crossbow in his hand.

Seeing that his target had stopped, the white-haired monster jumped down from the tree, pounded the ground with both hands, and then rushed towards the dragon.

I kept aiming at the white-haired monster with my crossbow, for fear that something would happen.

At this moment, the white-haired monster suddenly tripped over something, fell forward, and fell to the ground at once.

Long Quan, who was standing in front of the white-haired monster, immediately squatted down when he saw this, picked up a rope noose from the ground, and then quickly put it on the white-haired monster's neck.

Immediately after, Long Quan ran towards a tree beside him, and then I saw Erwa and Liang Wen hiding behind the tree.

Long Quan ran to their side, the three of them grabbed a rope, and then pulled down together, and the white-haired monster lying on the ground was hung up by the second baby.

The white-haired monster was suspended in mid-air, unable to exert even its strength due to the loss of support.

I took the opportunity to pull out a crossbow arrow, smear it with cinnabar, and walked towards the white-haired monster.

The white-haired monster was still struggling, but it could no longer pose a threat to me, so I clicked on the white-haired monster in the order of the soul fixing talisman, and then the white-haired monster was completely silent.

After doing all this, I almost collapsed, and sat on the ground on the spot, and the second baby seemed to be a little uneasy, and they kept pulling the rope and refused to relax.

I beckoned to them, and little by little they put the white-haired monster down.

Long Quan was the first to come over, he looked at the white-haired monster for a while, and then sat down next to me, Erwa and Liang Wen also walked over when they saw this, Erwa kicked the body of the white-haired monster, and scolded in his mouth:

"Batches of white-haired beasts, tired to death!"

Long Quan and I looked at each other, and then laughed out loud.

The four of us rested for a while, and when we saw that Qiu Yan and they hadn't rushed over, Erwa got up and said:

"I haven't eaten dinner yet, I'm starving!"

After that, he took out the wild boar that had been hanging here and roasted it on the fire.

I didn't feel hungry yet, but when the smell of meat wafted in, I felt a cramp in my stomach, and it seemed that if I was given a whole boar now, I could eat it all.

Liang Wen had been in a daze before, I thought he was frightened, but after enough rest at this time, he came over with his head wrapped in gauze and asked:

"Mr. He, did you have anything to say about those few hits just now? Didn't you say that this beast was a corpse? Why do you poke it a few times and it dies? ”

I didn't know how to explain it for a moment, so I said:

"It's a spell, and you won't understand it if you tell it!"

Liang Wen seemed to believe it, looked at me with wide eyes, I patted him on the shoulder and stopped paying attention to him, at this time, I inadvertently glanced at Long Quan next to Liang Wen.

I saw him look at Liang Wen with a smile, there seemed to be a little contempt in his eyes, and when he came into contact with my gaze, he quickly avoided it.

I pretended not to care on the surface, but in my heart I muttered: I just did this. Although the action is not as chic and beautiful as Long Quan, in the eyes of ordinary people, it should be unbelievable to let the white-haired monster with a corpse fall down with just a few acupuncture points, just like Liang Wen.

But why did Long Quan behave so indifferently? Isn't he curious?

Besides, I cooperated with Long Quan the whole process just now, although the process was very comfortable, but I felt a little wrong when I thought about it carefully.

I didn't explain too much to Long Quan during the whole process, but the cooperation between the two of us was perfect, he didn't seem panicked like others in the face of the white-haired monster, I even felt that he was calmer than me, although he came out of the martial arts school, but this psychological quality is too strong.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at Long Quan, Long Quan found my gaze, turned his head and smiled at me, that smile was still so bright, so harmless to humans and animals, it made me feel that I suspected that he was wronging him.

At this time, I suddenly smelled a smell of meat in my nose, turned my head to look, and found that it was Erwa poking a piece of meat with a dagger and handing it to me:

"Brother Zimu, come, this lump is ripe!"

I felt a little embarrassed when the second baby gave me the first piece of meat that was roasted, but I was so hungry that I couldn't take care of it, so I took the meat and chewed it.

After a while, I heard movement in the forest, and when I looked back, Qiu Yan and the others rushed over.

The two groups of people met, first asked each other about the situation, and then, Qiu Yan took people to see the corpses of the white-haired monster one by one, and they each sighed, and then gathered around to eat meat together.

Qiu Yan sat down beside me, tearing the meat with her hands and sending it to her mouth, we looked at each other, and then she said:

"A mule is dead, everything else is intact."

I nodded and replied:

"That's good, we're not working in vain."

"Thanks to you."

"Hehe, the dragon has good hands all over his body, and the second baby is also smart."

As I was talking, I suddenly felt a tingling pain in my shoulder, so I touched it casually, and as soon as my hand reached over, there was a tearing pain in my shoulder.

"Hiss~~" I gasped, and then I realized that before I ran out of the broken house, my shoulder was scratched by the white-haired monster.

Seeing this, Qiu Yan quickly put down the meat in her hand, she walked to my right hand, checked my injuries, and then went to the luggage pile to rummage through the first aid kit.

Just as I took off my clothes and Qiu Yan was about to clean my wounds, Xiang Wei came over, he smiled at me, and said:

"I'll come, bloody, you go eat."

With that, he took the first-aid kit from Qiu Yan's hand.

"He Zimu, this journey is really thanks to you!" Xiang Wei said as he opened the first aid kit, poured some iodine wine on my shoulder, and then began to wipe it with a cotton swab.

To my surprise, Xiang Wei's movements were very gentle.

"I was a little anxious before, and I spoke a little rushed, don't take it to heart." Xiang Wei continued.

"Hey, man, it's hot, it's normal, didn't I get louder before? Each other, each other! I replied, chewing wild boar.

After saying that, the two of us relaxed, and Xiang Wei returned the first-aid kit to Qiu Yan after treating my wounds.

That night, we were all tired enough to choke on it, and after eating wild boar, we all rested around the campfire.

Long Quan came over and told me that someone had to keep watch in the forest for the night, and he said that he would put the first shift, and asked me if it was okay for Xu Jinshan to let Xu Jinshan go in the second shift.

I was so tired that I agreed without much thought.

The next day, I was sleeping soundly when I was awakened by a noise, it turned out that it was too dark last night for these people to see the white-haired monster clearly, so as soon as the morning dawned, these people surrounded me.

I got up and squeezed into the crowd, and I saw Qiu Yan crouching next to the white-haired monster.

"It should be an ape, no tail, slender limbs, these are in line with the characteristics of apes, but I don't know what kind of ape it is." Qiu Yan explained as if in class.

Qiu Yan found me at this time and said to me:

"He Zimu, I think we'd better bury it!"

I shook my head and said:

"You can't bury it, I use a soul fixing talisman on it, the soul fixing talisman is used to seal the corpse and prevent it from rotting, if you just bury it, it will only be the same as Wushan Toast, it will not rot for a thousand years, and when the time comes, what should I do if I have an unlucky urge to dig it out and raise the corpse again?"

"So what do you say? You can't just leave it here, can you? ”

I pointed to the fire that had not been completely extinguished, and said:

"Burn it!"

Everyone nodded in unison, and everyone knew that it was safest to burn it.

So, after everyone ate something casually, they scattered to look for dry firewood, and after a while, we set up a crematorium, just when Xiang Wei and I carried the white-haired monster to the crematorium, suddenly the white-haired monster made a popping sound in its throat, and a green stone fell out of its mouth.

Qiu Yan picked up the stone and walked towards me and asked:

"This is the stone you found in the house?"

I nodded.

Qiu Yan took the stone and looked at it for a while, and after looking at it for a long time, she didn't see any reason, so she put the stone in her pocket, and then came over to help us dispose of the body.

The fire burned all morning but failed to completely burn the white-haired monster, and when I saw that there were only bones left in the corpse, I ordered Long Quan and them to put out the fire: we must rush back to Ling'an Temple in the afternoon, and it will be too late to delay any longer.

We hastily dug a pit, and then put the remaining remains of the white-haired monster into it, and as I left, I stood for a while in front of the white-haired monster's grave, and for some reason, I felt a little sad, and I mourned in my heart:

All things are animistic and all beings are equal, I hope you will know and forgive us for our offensive!
