Chapter 17: The Little Girl Who Was Hunted

"Ha~ha~ha~ha~" A petite figure kept running in the forest. I don't know how long she's been running, but judging by her staggering steps, it's clear that her stamina is running low. "Ahh She didn't notice as she ran, the forest was not like a city, with a smooth surface. She was accidentally knocked down by a dead tree root on the ground. One foot's shoe also fell off.

The little body was lying on the ground, the two small fists were clenched tightly, and the teeth bit their lips to prevent themselves from making a sound, but the tears couldn't help but flow out, and I don't know if the tears were flowing because they were too painful or ......

At this moment, a sparse voice began to come from behind him, "Hurry up, hurry up, you idiots, don't let that little girl run, go grab her!!" A roar of anger rang out.

When the little girl heard these voices, she also knew that she could not continue to lie on her stomach, and she had to leave quickly! When she stood up, her little hands wiped away her tears, and her eyes showed a hint of firmness that did not suit her age. He continued to run forward. And the direction she was heading was that boulder.

Shortly after the little girl left. A group of men dressed in mercenary costumes found the place, and they spotted the little girl's shoes on the ground at a glance. One of them picked up the shoe, patted it, and handed it to a strong man standing at the end of the line, carrying a tall sword.

The strong man looked at the shoes in his hand, and began to give orders, "All the team members, retreat five kilometers, find a suitable place to set up camp!", "But! But! Big brother! Since this little girl dropped her shoes here, she will definitely not be able to run far, this little girl can't learn martial arts and magic, but she is just a noble lady who loves fantasy." After running for so long, it's already an extraordinary performance. Why don't you just grab her!" The person who asked the question was a thin middle-aged man, and listening to the voice, it was obvious that it was the one who had given the order earlier.

When the strong man heard his question, he glanced at him lightly, "You're right...... That little girl is just a noble lady who loves fantasy, and as a nobleman, she doesn't even have any cultivation talent. It can be said that without this aristocratic identity and the love of the elders in the clan, this little girl is a super big waste...... But! You can't even look down on a little girl who is a waste! You are not even as good as a waste!! " As he spoke, he punched out and hit the thin middle-aged man in the face fiercely, and the middle-aged man flew out directly upside down, breaking two or three trees before stopping. The face is already swollen like a bun.

"Deputy, deputy head of the regiment!" the others couldn't help but scream when they saw the thin middle-aged man being knocked away by the strong man. I wanted to step forward to help, but when I thought of the strong man, I stopped abruptly. "Great, big brother. I, I was, but—" The thin middle-aged man staggered to his feet holding on to the tree, and seemed to want to justify something. The strong man didn't even mean to listen at all, and went straight back: "That's enough! I don't know that little bit of caution in your heart? I really can't understand, how can a person like you be my brother? If it weren't for the fact that you still have a little talent in management, my mercenary group would be able to accommodate you?"

At this time, a team member next to him walked out, probably the identity of the team leader or something like that. "Captain, actually, I don't really understand, why do you want to let that little girl go? If we catch up directly now, we should be able to catch her easily, right?"

The strong man looked at him, but did not criticize. Instead, he replied directly: "The client of this task asked us to kill the little girl and her entourage directly when she was playing here, and only need to give a part of the little girl's body as a certificate to that side when we turn around." This little girl is a waste, but she is indeed very beautiful, and if you sell her to a slave merchant, it will be a lot of income. Then he glared at a thin middle-aged man, "It's a pity that this extra money has ruined a certain waste." "Then look at the sky" It's almost evening now, and the night is the activity time for most carnivorous demonic beasts, although these zero-order demonic beasts can't cause me any damage, but there are still some troubles for you. Our mercenary group is newly created, and I don't want you to delay the growth of the mercenary group because of injuries and rest. That little girl will be handed over to the monsters here. Come back tomorrow to see if there is a stump or something, it is the best, it doesn't matter if you don't. Just tell your employer that you've been eaten by a monster. Okay, let's go. ”

Then he looked at his younger brother who was still leaning against the tree, and finally sighed slightly, and said to the two team members, "Hold him up and go." After saying that, he walked back without looking back, and the two team members who were called also hurriedly helped their deputy head of the regiment, and together with other teammates, followed.

-----------------------------------------

And will the truth really go as smoothly as this group of mercenaries thinks?

The little girl was indeed just as they thought, and after mustering up the last bit of strength to run some distance, she still had no strength after all. As soon as her feet were crooked, her body was unsteady and she fell into a bush, she wanted to stand up, but her body couldn't get any strength. She felt a pang of despair, "Is this going to be the end?Father, Mother, everyone, I miss you so much, I'm sorry......" The little girl closed her eyes and almost resigned herself to her fate.

But the little girl had been lying there for a while. Her pursuers were nowhere to be found. "They gave up? They gave up...... They gave up!" Thinking of this, a sense of ups and downs for the rest of her life enveloped her, and tears flowed out of her own eyes. Tears flowed, and she fell asleep.

About an hour later, "Woohoo!" and "Ahh At this time, although the sky was still bright, it had already begun to darken. It is even darker in the forest, and with the roars of beasts around it from time to time, it looks even more terrifying. The little girl hurriedly got up, but the moment she got up, there was a sharp pain in her body. After all, the little girl has always been well-pampered, and she has never moved as much as she does today. Before, I rashly lay down to rest, and the lactic acid in my body was not discharged, but now I naturally began to sing the opposite.

But the little girl's will was indeed strong, and she walked up with her aching body. She must now find a place where she can spend the night. In this world, there is no skill at all, and spending the night in the wild is no different from seeking death. Because sometimes the danger does not only come from the monster, but also can be killed by the environment in which it is located, or by one person.

Although the little girl was naïve, she was not stupid, otherwise she would not have been able to pull it out of the hands of that thin middle-aged man. She had already noticed that the further she went, the more quiet and lively the forest became, as quiet and lively as daytime.

As she walked on, the afterglow of the setting sun began to shine through the tall trees of the forest. The little girl was so happy that she thought she had come out of the forest. However, when she walked past the last bushes, what she saw was not the open field she had entered the forest, but just a clearing. There is also a boulder standing in the middle of the clearing.

She felt a little sad, but quickly cheered up again. "Hey, there's a hole under the big rock! that's great!" the little girl found out, naturally, Gu Yun's residence. Generally, experienced adventurers, at this time, if they find that the surroundings are very quiet, they will be alert, because they are likely to be in the territory of a powerful demonic beast, and the cave in the territory of the demonic beast or something, that is, they will turn around and leave when they see it, unless they are intentionally hunting or capturing this demonic beast. will take the initiative to go.

And our sweet little girl obviously didn't know that. Or maybe she could have thought about it, but in her current state of mind, she didn't think much about it.

The little girl walked into the cave, and she thought it would be dark and damp. But the cave is very clean and refreshing. And in the middle of the cave there was a large bed covered with blankets. The little girl didn't think much about it, so she climbed up directly, "Ah, this hair is so comfortable~ I don't know who is extravagant, what a good blanket is laid in this kind of cave, and I won't take it back when I leave." But it helped me...... Ah~~ Daddy, Mom, are you going to come to me? I'm so scared......"

The little girl lay on Gu Yun's new bed, curled up, thinking about her family, shedding tears, crying and crying, and gradually fell asleep......

-----------------------------------------

Gu Yun didn't know that there was a little guest in his house. He had a good meal at the hunting place today. I replenished all the energy consumed when I advanced, and I stored a lot of it.

When he returned to the boulder with a happy mood, he planned to try the effect of his advanced cultivation at night. An unfamiliar smell suddenly alerted him. This smell is not something he often smells in the forest, there is a clear difference. And the smell is still obvious, indicating that it has just arrived.

Gu Yun leaned down and began to follow the smell and began to look for the intruder. But soon he froze, and at the same time, anger began to burn. Because the final location of the smell is actually his cave!

Apparently, someone took advantage of his prey to take possession of his home. Gu Yun immediately quietly dived into the cave, wanting to surprise the guy who occupied his cave. It's the same whether it's Warcraft or humans!

But, when Gu Yun came to his bed, he saw the creature that occupied his bed. For he was greeted by a little girl with a delicate face, with beautiful blonde hair, dressed in a beautiful but tattered dress, and even a shoe on her foot had been lost. Looking at her, Gu Yun's heart was unusually entangled, and his paws were raised and lowered, raised and lowered, and repeated several times.

Gu Yun looked at the little girl with complicated eyes. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, his paws were raised high, and then he brushed them one by one, and gently lowered them to the ground. "I still can't do it...... I can't do anything to a sleeping little human girl. Looking at the little girl's tear-stained face, Gu Yun thought, "I'm a monster now...... I should have done it...... But... I... After all... It was once human...... I'm ......."

Gu Yun glanced deeply at the sleeping little girl. Then he left the cave and came to the top of the boulder. But my mind was very chaotic, and I didn't have the mood to cultivate at all.
