Chapter 32: Crisis
Finally, dozens of minutes later, Jiawen climbed down the tree with the girl, and he was also exhausted due to the fact that there was one more person when he came back, coupled with the incorrect posture.
Kneeling down on one knee, he leaned the girl against the root of the tree, and pulled off her octopus-like hands and feet, the girl may have exhausted all her strength before, and her whole body went limp.
His hair was already wet with his own sweat, sticking to his cheeks, his lips were pale and peeling, his eyes were closed, and his whole body was hot and feverish.
Seeing this, Gavin took the kettle and put it to her mouth, but the girl seemed to have completely lost consciousness and would not take the initiative to ask for water.
I had no choice but to pinch her mouth with my hand, and at the same time pour it into it in small mouthfuls. The girl swallowed cooperatively.
Feeling almost, Gavin took the kettle and wiped the corners of her mouth for her.
On the other hand, looking at her physical condition, I saw that Dai's eyebrows were obviously wrinkled together, and she seemed to be in great pain, her whole body was dripping with sweat and exuding an abnormally high temperature, and the white power suit outside was already soaked.
The girl's body curled up, trembling all over, and her teeth seemed to chatter.
Jiawen had no choice but to take out the mage robe he had just obtained a few days ago from his backpack again and put it on the girl, because the robe was very loose and the girl was light and it didn't take much to wear it.
After that, he also got all the contents of the package, except for some important things that he carried with him, and threw away everything like dry food.
Then the package was spread out and stretched out into a square blanket about two meters long, which was very sturdy because it was made of cowhide.
Then the girl in white in the white robe wrapped her in the style of rolling roast duck, and now the inside was completely airtight, and the girl's expression slowly soothed.
......
I buried my head and worked for most of the day, and only when I felt that the light was a little dim did I look up again, only to find that the sun had been completely swallowed up by the earth, and the light was constantly fading.
In a few moments, the stars and the moon had appeared in the sky, and it seemed that we were going to spend the night outside, and the gates of the city were probably closed by this time.
Looking at the girl, Gavin took advantage of the last glimmer of light to act.
First they gathered dead branches and lit the fire, then added firewood to make it bigger, and then carried the girl to the fire so that the temperature would not worsen her condition at night.
Tear off a piece of the hem of your clothes, fold them into a rectangle, wet them with water, and apply them to the girl's forehead.
......
I touched my gurgling belly, bent down to pick up the bread slices I had poured out earlier, baked them on the fire, and stuffed them into my mouth to fill my stomach, and solved the meal with water.
However, the girl on the side has no way to eat now, so she can only wait for her condition to improve.
The place that Jiawen found was surrounded by trees on all sides, so that he was not worried about the intrusion of the cold wind, and the small space could also invisibly bring people a sense of security.
He moved a piece of bluestone and placed it next to the root of the tree, leaned on it, his face flushed with bright light, and turned the fire to add firewood to prevent it from being extinguished.
Finally having some free time, Jiawen looked up at the quiet night sky and wandered out of the world.
Once the spirit is relaxed, the easier it is for people to feel tired, and Jiawen also feels that his eyes are sore, his eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, and finally he falls asleep quietly.
......
Before I knew it, a thick fog had risen in the woods, and the fire had been extinguished by the thick fog that had a lot of moisture because there was no new firewood.
The air was quiet except for the occasional chirping of insects, which seemed to be calm on the surface in the moonlight.
......
Somewhere in the darkness, a pair of green eyes were staring at this place, crawling forward and slowly approaching.
It didn't even make a sound, staring at its prey like a beast in the dark, and the sleeping Gavin didn't know anything about it.
Suddenly, there were many pairs of eyes around them, and both eyes were exposed to the same cold light as before.
Without the slightest sound, they acted in a clear and orderly manner, and slowly formed a situation of encirclement to surround Jiawen and them.
......
The cold moonlight shone on the woods, adding a bit of depression to the surroundings out of thin air, and the silence around was terrible, and some were only a few faint insect chirps.
As if feeling an unusual chill, Jiawen woke up from his sleep with a shiver, although the temperature at night was extremely low, but he was covered in sweat at this time, as if he had some nightmare.
I shivered from the cold, and when I looked back, I saw that the fire had no fire at all, and it was obvious that it had been extinguished for a long time.
Standing up, he patted off the weeds on his body, and took advantage of the moonlight Jiawen to think of the big stone not far in front of him, and took the velvet that had been collected there to rekindle the fire.
He yawned, and just as he hadn't taken a few steps forward, his instincts told him that something was wrong.
The surroundings are also quiet, in this kind of forest that has never been cleared, there are usually some small animals that often haunt here even if it is not good, and it is normal to cause some movement.
And now, the air is so quiet that people feel frightened, and there is a feeling that the mountain rain is coming.
"What's the situation?"
Jiawen was also muttering to himself, but his hand was slowly resting on the blood feather on his waist, and his eyes were fixed on the front.
In the distance, it seemed to be calm and there seemed to be no change, except for the faint smell of the fishy smell from the mouth of a carnivore.
"It is. ”
Gavin's eyes narrowed, but he soon understood.
In the darkness around them, green eyes gradually lit up, and they were increasing at a rate of several times, and many pairs of eyes were looking in the direction of Jiawen.
“****。 Gavin burst into foul language.
I saw that when he hurriedly turned around and wanted to go in the other direction, he also met him with the same green eyes.
Jiawen's cold sweat flowed down instantly, and the situation he was facing at this time could be said to be the turtle in the urn.
......
Finally, the number of eyes ceased to increase, and after a long silence, a tall figure slowly stepped out of the shadows and into the moonlight.
With its blue-gray glossy fur, thicker limbs than ordinary tigers, a fluffy tail like steel needles hanging behind him, a lonely and king-like look, and sharp fangs that shimmer with cold light when the mouth is closed, the whole predator is born to kill.
It just stood there, staring at Gawain's position, while its companions around it were also waiting for its orders.
