Chapter 17: Vampires
No matter how fast Rao is Qiushui reacts, my feet have already stepped on the bluestone slab. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But actually, my posture is very weird. Because the branches of the thorny bamboo drooped had hard thorns, I had to twist my body to avoid them, and I slowly retracted into the gillnet made of bamboo branches.
"You try to walk towards the moon slate." Qiushui said.
I thought to myself, isn't this deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?
The moon slate was a meter away from the sun slate where I was. If it were normal, it would not be difficult for me to take such a step. However, there are thorny bamboo branches all over the place, and it is obviously difficult to cross them without touching the other stone slabs.
"Brother, I'm afraid not!" I couldn't help but make a bitter face.
After Qiushui heard this, his body couldn't help but lean forward, and the dagger drawn on the thorny bamboo branch was suddenly withdrawn. I saw him vigilantly shining the wolf's eyes at the place where the "trembling" sound came from, and almost instantaneously, a "flash" came out of his mouth.
Or no one knows better than me what Qiushui means by "flash", which in my consciousness is definitely a fateful thing.
I almost didn't think about it, I took a step, and there was no panic in my heart, such as any mechanism or monster, and the only belief was "flash".
But in fact, our speed did not increase much because of this, and it took almost five minutes to walk ten meters.
Qiushui drove the road in front of him, although the hand holding the dagger was constantly scratching messily, but many times, I saw that he directly used his body to bounce those thorny bamboo branches, and I was faintly unhappy in my heart, so I said: "Brother, in fact, you can leave some for me." ”
Qiushui didn't make a sound, and still went his own way. But I know that he is actually worried about me, otherwise with his speed, I am afraid that he will rush out of this bamboo forest.
When we walked about ten meters, we both had a lot of wounds on our bodies. Especially Qiushui, there are clear blood marks on the neck, and I am a little touched when I see it.
At this time, the previous "shuddering" sound actually changed direction, and it sounded as if it was coming from behind and behind us.
"Brother, it seems that you want to be attacked from both sides!"
Qiushui nodded and said lightly: "Don't worry about this for now, you have to follow me." ”
"I know, but what are those things?" I was apprehensive.
"Bamboo cow."
The image of a large cow weighing 100 catties with long yellow and black horns flashed in my mind, so I said, "This is strange, how can such a big cow pass through this dense bamboo forest?" ”
Qiushui was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said lightly: "It is an insect that sucks the juice of bamboo shoots, but it is the size of a thumb." It's common, but you don't have to worry about it. But after the cultivation of the Qiu family, they have become ruthless killing characters. They will penetrate the skin of a person through a long, stiff straw on their head and suck human blood directly. ”
As soon as Qiushui's words came out, I couldn't help but tremble, as if my body was crawling with these weird insects in an instant.
In this case, it is reasonable that those who enter the ancient city of the Qiu clan cannot retreat with their whole body. A single bug can become a vampire, not to mention the secret arts.
"In fact, there are still ways to deal with these bugs. However, it is not a last resort, and it is better not to use it lightly. Qiushui said again, and then continued to row the bamboo branches.
The dagger is just a simple dagger, there is no doubt about it, but in Qiushui's hands, it has become a sharp axe, although it is small, it does not affect his performance at all. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have found it hard to believe that anyone could cut bamboo branches like this.
After we walked for another ten minutes or so, the moonlight above us suddenly disappeared. I suddenly had a bad feeling, so I shouted to Qiushui in front of me, "Brother, something is wrong." ”
Qiushui nodded and said, "The moon is dark and the wind is high!" “
I picked it up casually: "Murder and arson." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I couldn't help but shudder, and I couldn't help but skim around. But the strange thing is that the previous "trembling" sound was completely hidden at this time, and it was suddenly surprisingly quiet in all directions.
"Brother, what should I do?" I hurriedly took two steps closer to the autumn water, and without paying attention to the one under my feet, I stepped on the long bamboo thorn that the autumn water had not yet had time to quickly open.
I subconsciously let out an "oops".
Qiushui couldn't help but turn around and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
I said "En", and then pulled out the thorns on the soles of my feet, because the feet were wearing flippers, I couldn't stand the pricks, and when the bamboo thorns were pulled out, they were already stained with blood at the tip of the thorns.
In fact, all the way over, fortunately, when the autumn water opened the road, by the way, the bamboo thorns that were rowed to the ground were swept to both sides with their feet, otherwise it would have been a disaster long ago.
After this little episode, I inadvertently shook the wolf's eyes, and found that there were some thick black and yellow dots moving densely on a bamboo pole on the left side of the bamboo pole one meter away from us.
"Brother, there!" I shook it with a wolf eye.
Qiushui stared at it, his face suddenly darkened, and then handed me a handful of bamboo branches, saying, "Sweep hard, don't let these things fall on your skin." ”
I grabbed the unthorny part, staring at the bamboo pole crawling with black and yellow dots, not daring to move.
In two or three seconds, these things suddenly scattered and crawled towards the two of us with a "whoosh".
I couldn't help but secretly rejoice, my heart was fortunate that these things wouldn't fly, otherwise they would have come over so suddenly, and I would have gotten it. But before I could get away with it, I suddenly had a fat bamboo cow under my feet.
I was stunned, looked down, and couldn't help but panic, these things can get up so fast, look at the speed, it's almost overtaking Qiushui.
I instinctively stepped on the bamboo ox, and it slipped under my feet in an instant. Then, around my feet, dense black and yellow dots poured in. I kept waving the bamboo branches in my hand, the tail of the branch like a fan leaf, and swept it around.
But looking at Qiushui, he also threw up a handful of bamboo branches at this time, and as his hands continued to move, a burst of dust began to rise around him. The black and yellow bamboo oxen, like ants, were swept into the gap of the dense bamboo forest by him in an instant.
"Don't stop." Qiushui suddenly shouted at this time.
I couldn't help but wake up when I saw that a bamboo cow was about to climb from the bamboo branch to my right hand. I shook my right hand violently, and there was a black and yellow spot, and I was instantly knocked down on the bluestone slab.
At this time, there was a sudden pain in my right shoulder, and I instinctively hit it with my left hand, and in an instant. The back of his left hand stabbed violently.
I took a picture with a wolf's eye and couldn't help but be startled. (To be continued.) )
