Chapter 190: Unavoidable Risks
The sound of gunfire in such a jungle is never a good sign, so I put out the fire, grabbed something and ran to the hidden spot I had seen beforehand.
Kalmi hurriedly followed me, clutching my hand as if he were afraid that I would leave her in the wilderness.
To be honest, even since entering the Xuanmen, he has been going through a life-and-death situation. But it's the first time that there is a Kalmi by his side who needs attention and care at all times.
"Angels... Am I a drag on you? Kalmi asked timidly, his eyes too scared to look me squarely.
I was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say. Theoretically, I had dragged her into this situation, but now she is actually dragging me down.
"Don't ask boring questions, be quiet if you can, or I'll leave you behind." I said to her, half intimidation and half was what I really thought.
"I'm sorry." Kalmi gripped tighter, lowered his head, and let out a slight cry in his voice.
"Don't cry." I pulled her hard, and if I was discouraged by crying at such a time, I really had to leave her behind.
And at this moment, some fine rain sounds came from far and near. The rustle of rain on the leaves suddenly made me feel the urge to scold my mother.
It's really unlucky, drinking cold water and stuffing your teeth!
The weather in the jungle is changeable, and a heavy rain is just in the air. I couldn't find a place to hide from the rain, and my clothes quickly became wet from the rain.
Going through the rain was a terrible option, difficult for me, and a slug for Kammy.
The dampness and the cold of the night can quickly take away our body heat, which is a very serious consequence when we cannot make a fire.
In this case, not to mention Kalmi, even I may not be able to bear it.
I hesitated again and again, and silently used the Flying Immortal Recipe to let the Qi run in my body. Then he took off his coat and threw it to Kalmi: "To keep out the rain." β
Kalmi took my coat nervously: "So what do you do?" β
"Don't talk, just follow me." I don't have time to be hypocritical with her, with the Flying Immortal Trick to protect me, I won't be able to do anything for a while. And I can already hear footsteps in the distance, searching for us.
Damn it... I really chased it down.
I carried the things that Kalmi was carrying onto my shoulders, and since she was far less physically than me, they would slow us down. Second, if she is caught, I won't lose my supplies.
"Don't make a sound." I pulled Kalmi quietly away from the footsteps, and Kalmi obediently covered her mouth, and I could see her soft blonde hair wet from the rain and sticking to her snow-white face.
The rain drowned out the sound of our footsteps, and I was able to avoid the people's orientation by watching them strengthen my hearing and senses.
It's a blessing in disguise, but the rain doesn't just bring good. The ground of the jungle is muddy and rugged, and it is even more muddy in the rain, and sometimes it takes a lot of effort to pull out the leg if you accidentally step on it and lose your ankle.
Thankfully, those people were worse off than we were, because I could hear them farther and farther away until they were finally completely inaudible.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and then helped Kalmi pull her right leg out of the mud, her eyes were completely red, and she was running out of breath, and her physical exertion was huge.
Should I leave her behind......
I furrowed my brow, and as if sensing my gaze, she looked up at me, gritted her teeth, and held back the tears that were about to come out of her tears.
I watched her follow up again, and my brow softened slightly. Now she is a little stronger than when she first entered the jungle.
"Are you still moving?" I asked.
Kalmi looked at me pitifully, first nodded honestly, then quickly shook his head, and said anxiously: "I, I can, don't leave me behind......"
My heart trembled at her words, pursed my lips, and turned my head: "Let's go, I can't stop yet." β
Since those people are willing to chase such a deep place, and dare to chase down in such heavy rain, they will definitely not give up easily. The hunters didn't listen, and we didn't have time to stop and rest.
Kalmi followed me a little more, and I could hear her panting heavier.
"Angelβ" she said in a faint voice.
"Huh?" I asked without looking back, and now I was too lazy to correct her.
"I'm not going to drag you down, you can go by yourself... I really... I can't walk anymore. Kalmi staggered to a halt, not because he was squeamish, but because he was too tired to take a step.
I looked back at her, and she had been following me like a dependent since she had entered the jungle, begging me several times not to abandon her. Obviously, she really couldn't keep up, so she would say something like this that made me give up on her.
I sighed softly in my heart, if it weren't for the farce arranged by me and Ji Yining, maybe she might not have fallen into such a situation in her life. Although I approached her in order to take advantage of her, I can't deny that she will suffer here, and a large part of the reason is that I am involved.
But she regarded me, the initiator, as an angel sent by God to save her.
I sighed and pulled her over resignedly: "Come up, I'll carry you." β
This is the second time in my life that I have taken the initiative to carry a woman, and the last time it was my wife Song Anna!
Kalmi looked at me in surprise when he heard this, but hesitated a little: "I'll drag you down if you bring it..."
... It's also hypocritical.
"Hurry up, people are drenched in the rain and their brains are watered?" I yelled at her, and when I yelled, she shuddered and quickly crawled on my back and lay still on my stomach.
Carrying a bunch of things on her back and adding someone, even if she is just a girl's weight, it is not a negligible weight. I felt a little struggling, but it was much faster than dragging her to run.
"Thank you." She leaned on my back and said softly.
I was trying to distract me by telling her to stop talking, when I felt a shadow cast over my head. It turned out that Kalmi had put his coat on my head, and although it didn't have much effect, it finally eased the rain a little.
"Just take care of yourself." I said jumping over a creek that was starting to rise.
"You're going to catch a cold, and the angels are going to get sick." She whispered, not removing her clothes.
ββ¦ Don't curse me. "I'm a little helpless, I don't know what else to ask of such a girl who knows nothing.
Kalmi chuckled softly, "Angel, you're so nice to me. β
οΌ Is it good to be in this situation?
"You really think I'm good to you, don't call me that in the future." I sighed.
ββ¦ No way. Kalmi shook her head on my back, I could feel her hair rubbing against my neck, a little itchy, "Angels are angels, you are like a hero who fell from the sky when I was in danger, you are my superman!" β
I clearly felt that I was also being praised a little hot in the face of being washed away by the rain. But at the same time, some of the guilt that comes with it also becomes stronger.
In order to please this guilt, I quickly diverted the topic, and said with a slight hook in my mouth: "I thought that models mainly looked at their figure and temperament, but it turns out that their mouths are so sweet?" β
Seeing that I smiled, Kalmi seemed to be relieved: "No, because you are an angel to be like this." I don't usually talk much, and my agent always makes me smile more. β
ββ¦β¦ I'll find a safe place first. I didn't answer her again, and my eyes saw a hole in the rain that was hidden by vines, and I wouldn't have been able to find it if I hadn't observed it with Xingqi.
In normal times, I would not have chosen to enter such an unknown place. But now there is no choice, and running in the rain like this is a great test of physical strength and willpower.
And it turns out that there really isn't necessarily anything good about this kind of place. As I entered the cave, I suddenly felt that the vague aura of tracking had become stronger.
"Stay here and wait for me." I immediately put Kalmi down and left the backpack with her, turning back into the rain.
"Angel ......" Kalmy's voice was drowned out by the rain, and I quickly left the cave and moved towards the spot where the breath had appeared.
The smell was strange, it wasn't a human or an animal, and the animal would have lost our scent long ago under the heavy rain.
Aside from those two things, I had only unsettling options left in my mind.
As I had been running there for only two minutes, I saw two human-like demons with pitch-black bat-wings flying out of the canopy, surrounded by pitch-black demonic energy, and when they saw me, they immediately flew down like wild beasts.
It is the demon of the demons, the subordinate demons.
The rain hit me in the face, and I immediately took a step back, grabbed the jade ruyi in my hand, and slammed it on its forehead as it pounced.
Ruyi emitted a white glow, and fiercely smashed the demon's Heavenly Spirit Cover, and its entire body suddenly emitted a smell of sulfur and began to decay.
Seeing the tragic condition of his companions, the other demon did not dare to swoop down again, and turned to fly away.
I stared at it closely, poured Qi into the jade ruyi to stimulate the power, and a big white jade hand went up against the air, shattering the demon smash in mid-air!
The battle lasted short, but my heart was heavy.
The demon was still staring at me.
The demons have been tracking us, and the group is not too far away, and I have dealt with them once, but I don't know how long they will last.
When I returned to the cave, Kalmi was crouching at the entrance of the cave with his marching bag in his arms, and when he saw me enter, he pounced excitedly.
"Angel!"
I was hugged by her, and I opened my mouth and couldn't say anything vicious.
I sat down, and I was so tired from the rush and fighting that I just wanted to get some rest.
Kalmi obediently got off me after the initial agitation, and honestly crouched aside with his marching bag.
I closed my eyes and leaned against the stone wall. Although I didn't fall asleep, I didn't have the strength to open my eyes. Until I felt like I had something warm around me.
Wearily, I opened my eyelids and looked at the people who had crept to my side.
Whatever......
