Chapter 17: The Struggle of Life and Death
(Share a song: Born for Dreams - Shuimu Years)
Time passed incredibly slowly, every second seemed like an hour. Although the rate of bleeding is getting slower and slower, the wound is still bleeding, and the pain keeps Gu Chen's mind clear all the time, making Gu Chen doubly bear the anxiety that death may come when he clearly observes the movements of the wolves.
The two wolves that had been injured by Gu Chen before also returned to the encirclement, and there was a little coldness in their eyes when they looked at Gu Chen, which made Gu Chen's heart sink even more.
The wolf is an animal, as long as you don't show absolute suppressive power, even if you injure it, it will quietly lick the wound in the dark, and then wait for you to let down your vigilance and attack more violently.
Gu Chen's left shoulder was leaning against the wall, blood flowed down the wall, and the blood loss made Gu Chen's left arm weak, and he had no strength to clench his fist.
It stands to reason that a wound of this size should not have bled so much, not even half of it.
Gu Chen's eyes glanced at the pool of blood that had accumulated on the ground.
Now I can stay awake because of the pain, and if I bleed more, I am afraid that I would have been confused due to excessive bleeding......
The wolves were aroused by the smell of blood, and the ferocity in their bones exploded again, pounced on Gu Chen, bringing a gust of fishy wind.
The fishy smell in the wolf's mouth came into Gu Chen's nose, Gu Chen frowned, raised his long sword, pushed away the wolf at the front, and made a gap in the encirclement.
Gu Chen pounced forward, protruding from the gap, rolling on the ground, stabilizing his figure, and then turning around and swinging his sword!
He noticed that although there was a cold and fierce light in the eyes of these wolves, they lacked a bit of agility, and their movements were slightly uncomfortable, like puppets!
If it's really a puppet, it won't have enough reaction speed so that a single sword can destroy at least one of them!
Qiang
A crisp voice sounded, Gu Chen gritted his teeth, and looked at the wolf in front of him in disbelief who had bitten the long sword in his hand!
Damn, this wolf is different from the others!
Gu Chen withdrew his long sword vigorously, his face was ugly.
As he retreated, he could clearly see a kind of mockery in the wolf's eyes! This was different from the previous gloom, this was a look that only a creature with extremely high intelligence could show!
Gu Chen suddenly remembered that this wolf had always been different from other wolves. Every time the wolves attacked him, he first looked around with his eyes. When attacking, it is always the last, always attacking when it is most flustered.
This wolf is wise! And not low!
This thought made Gu Chen fall into the ice cellar, there is a wolf with advanced wisdom, the head wolf in this wolf pack!
How can this be fought? Just the ordinary wolves are already irresistible, and now the head wolf of this pack of wolves has extremely high intelligence, how can this be fought!?
Do you want to give up......
No way!
"I won't die here," Gu Chen clenched the sword in his hand, "I won't die in this kind of place that no one knows...... I wouldn't have died like this without finding my parents!"
"I'm going to find my parents......! I'm not going to die!"
At this moment, the light in Gu Chen's eyes even made the wolves take a step back, as if they sensed the growing will to survive in Gu Chen's heart, and the wolves no longer wasted time, and under the signal of the head wolf, they hugged each other again.
Gu Chen kicked the nearest wolf away, the long sword in his hand crossed an arc, and dodged sideways.
"Whew"
The head wolf passed by Gu Chen, this moment was prolonged countless times in Gu Chen's senses, he clearly heard the sound of breathing coming from the head wolf's mouth, and the ridicule in the head wolf's eyes was clearly reflected in Gu Chen's eyes again.
In less than a second, the head wolf twisted its body in the air, opened its big mouth at Gu Chen, and spewed out a fireball!
Holy!
Gu Chen only had time to cross his hands in front of him and was hit head-on by the fireball!
The huge force rushed Gu Chen out of the corner of the wall and slammed into the other wall, spitting out blood, and the wound on his back that had already begun to coagulate collapsed again, or even worse, blood gushed out.
Gu Chen's hands trembled, and the blade of the long sword turned red.
Fortunately, I blocked it with my sword just now, otherwise I would have hung up directly. But...... At this rate of bleeding, a few more times I will really have to explain myself here for excessive blood loss.
This wolf can breathe fire...... Are they creatures within the Bounds......
The head wolf led the wolves and looked at Gu Chen playfully, as if he was thinking about how to play with this human.
Gu Chen didn't have the slightest doubt that this wolf would definitely torture and kill himself like a cat playing with a mouse, and the cruelty in its eyes already said it all.
This is a nirvana for Gu Chen!
"This just wants me to die......" Gu Chen saw that the incense stick on the wall had only burned about one-fifth, which means that it had only been eight minutes at most so far!
Eight minutes! I'm almost on the verge of solving the mystery of whether there is an underworld in this world.
Unwilling to ......
Unwilling!
......
"Why hasn't the master woken up yet?, can't it be any danger......" Huahua looked at Gu Chen, who was cross-legged and closed his eyes and didn't move at all, worriedly.
"Don't talk nonsense. Momo was worried, but he still reprimanded.
"But I really think that the master's situation is not good, Sister Xiaoning has already started to use the aura to cultivate, but the master still hasn't reacted at all......" Huahua looked at Feng Xiaoning, and then at Gu Chen, her face was even more worried, and her beautiful little face was tangled together.
"We have no way to enter the master's sea of knowledge," Mo Mo walked around Gu Chen in a circle and circle, "After we transmitted the sound to the master's sea of knowledge just now, the master's sea of knowledge seemed to be closed, and we couldn't find a way to connect." ”
"I've never seen anything like this before!" Momo sat on the ground and grabbed his hair.
When the two little guys were in a hurry, on the head of the Han Sword on the wall in the study, the teardrop-shaped mark formed by the blood emitted a blood-red light, and it became stronger and stronger.
......
"Whew, Whew"
Gu Chen gasped, and another two minutes passed, and in these two minutes, the wolves attacked again, and he tried his best to escape again, but there were still several more wounds on his body, each of which was bleeding blood.
The sword in his hand was once again roasted red by the fireball spit out by the head wolf, and the heat was transferred to the sword stem Gu Chen's hands were already stuck with the sword stem, and every swing of the sword would bring severe pain.
"It's only been ten minutes. Time is so slow, cut, I'm about to lose my footing, I knew I would often go out to exercise......"
The head wolf spewed out a fireball again and hit Gu Chen head-on.
Gu Chen flashed sideways, thinking that he could avoid another catastrophe, but unexpectedly, the first wolf followed behind the fireball, looked at him coldly, and was shocked for a while.
Worst!
Another fireball came towards him, and the shadow of the fireball in Gu Chen's eyes rapidly expanded, and finally engulfed Gu Chen entirely......
Gu Chen rolled out of the flames, rolled on the ground a few times, hit the wall, and lay on the ground for a long time without moving.
The wolves surrounded Gu Chen, but none of them attacked, and the head wolf stood not far away, letting out a laugh similar to asthma.
It hurts all over my body......
Gu Chen opened his eyes with difficulty, the clothes on his body had been burned out, his skin was full of blisters, and some places were burned black.
But it hurts...... Rise up also......
No...... Die here!
Seeing Gu Chen get up again, a flash of astonishment flashed in his eyes, as if he didn't expect such a weak guy to be able to stand up.
Immediately roared and ordered, a wolf rushed out of the wolf pack, opened its mouth and bit Gu Chen's right leg.
The head wolf grinned and licked his teeth, already thinking about how to play with the guy in front of him next.
It's still early anyway......
The wolf turned his head and saw that the incense had burned less than a third.
The wolf teeth that rushed out had already approached Gu Chen's legs, but Gu Chen hadn't reacted at all.
Although this wolf has been made into a puppet, its bloodthirsty nature is still there. He was about to feel the taste of flesh and blood again, and Mu Ran's eyes lit up with a hint of longing.
Gu Chen suddenly moved, a red light flashed, and with a sword, he cut the wolf that pounced in half.
The wolf corpse, which had been cut in two, did not shed blood, but instead emitted a smell similar to roasted meat, and the cut surface of the corpse was charred black.
Gu Chen looked at the head wolf, and there was a hissing sound from the red-burned sword in his hand, which was the sound of the wolf's blood boiling before.
"I've been hiding, but I can't survive like this, since that's the case...... Why should I hide again!"
"If you hide, you won't live long. Even if I can be lucky enough to live, it will be a shame for my life, and if I don't have a fighting heart, how can I become a strong man! In this case, I only have ......"
"Kill!"
Gu Chen shouted angrily and rushed towards the wolves with his sword.
The head of the head wolf was even higher, and he didn't care that one of his subordinates was killed before, and he seemed to be interested because of Gu Chen's counterattack.
The wolves in the wolf pack pounced one after another, wanting to bite Gu Chen to death, Gu Chen changed his previous style of blindly dodging, wielding his sword to fight with the wolves, like a mad demon.
A wolf pounced on Gu Chen's face, Gu Chen's face remained unchanged, he stretched out his left hand, the wolf bit down hard, Gu Chen heard a crisp click in his ears, and the long sword in his right hand swung up, slashing the wolf that bit his left hand, and swung it towards the other wolf.
Another wolf attacked from behind Gu Chen, the target was still the back of the neck, Gu Chen turned around suddenly, still with his left hand, blocking the bite, and with a wave of his right hand, he slashed a wolf again.
While he was dealing with this wolf, the last remaining wolf beside Gu Chen pounced on her body and tore at her wantonly. Gu Chen's left hand grabbed back, but the broken arm emitted a huge force, grabbing it in front of him and piercing his heart with a sword.
There were intermittent roars and wails, and the red of the sword from the heat faded and was stained red with blood.
Gu Chen was holding a sword, there were many more wounds on his body, each wound was bleeding nonstop, two of them were on the vital point of death, his left arm was a blur of flesh and blood, and there were several wolf teeth inserted on it, and one wolf tooth on his palm directly penetrated the hand bone. It's a miracle that he's still standing.
The incense in the walls burned unhurriedly, like the heavens high up looking down indifferently on mortals struggling in the earthly world......
