038 Death of the wolves
The stone blocking the entrance of the cave was too heavy, and Luo Chanyi could only use mana to knock it down in the end.
She crawled out of the cave, perhaps because she couldn't see her fingers inside the cave, but she felt that it was much brighter outside.
The voice she heard just now was like a battlefield marching through thousands of troops, and at this time, it was the boundless silence after the war.
She was about to chase Lu Jue, when she suddenly became alert to something around her, and she couldn't help but scream at a glance.
A few steps away from her, a wolf was squatting, apparently left behind to guard her.
When the wolf saw her come out on her own initiative, he stood up excitedly.
It was much larger than a normal dog, with a large tail behind it and triangular eyes that shimmered green staring straight at her.
It shifted its claws and slowly approached her, and the next moment it changed its slow motion, suddenly leaping to its feet and pounced.
Fortunately, Luo Chanyi had expected it, and as soon as her mind moved, as if time was suspended, the wolf was instantly frozen in mid-air by her.
Suddenly, there was a "swish", and a flying arrow pierced through the wolf's body horizontally, and then fell heavily to the ground, twitching a few times and never moving again.
Luo Chanyi turned his head to see that it was Orion, and called out in surprise: "Uncle? ”
Orion walked over to her, rubbing his eyes with his cuffs as he went.
When he was older, he was dazzled just now, thinking that the wolf was deliberately fixed in the air, waiting for him to be hit with an arrow.
He looked at Luo Chanyi and couldn't help but get angry: "Stupid baby, if it weren't for me, you would have let this beast bite off his throat, I still barely coping with one, no matter how much, you and I have to explain here, come out with me." ”
Orion said, turning to lead the way.
"Uncle, it's dangerous here, you go first." She didn't follow him, but still stood there and waved her hand at him.
Orion was furious, rushed back and grabbed her shoulder: "Stupid baby, you still want to find him, he can't live anymore, you come with me." ”
He forcibly grabbed her arm and pulled her out.
At this time, the boy must have been torn to pieces, and he couldn't fight it, and if he could save one at the moment, it would be counted as one.
Luo Chanyi felt helpless, one or two tonight, how could they all come to this set, they were so strong.
She shook off Orion with all her might, and threw herself out of a stumbling position: "Uncle, you don't have to worry about us, you can go quickly." ”
She was worried that Uncle Orion's temper would come up and knock her unconscious, so she turned and strode away, running away from his sight.
I don't know what to do! Orion was so angry that his nostrils were smoking, and he turned around and walked back.
Such people who are looking for death, even if the Da Luo Immortal comes, they can't be saved.
After a few steps, he stopped again.
But this girl is still so young, only seventeen or eighteen years old.
If the girl in his family hadn't died of illness when she was three years old, she would have grown up with her.
He gritted his teeth, cursed the rabbit cub in his heart, tightened his grip on the bow and arrows on his body, and chased in the direction where Luo Chanyi had just run away.
Luo Chanyi ran far away, and did not see Lu Jue's figure, and the wolves also disappeared without a trace, leaving only the wind-blown branches and leaves that should have been in the mountains and forests, and a lonely sound.
This mountain forest is so big, it can't be searched so blindly.
She stood still, closed her eyes, and had to use her mana.
"Baby, look over there." Suddenly, Orion's deep voice came from behind him.
Luo Chanyi was frightened.
I didn't expect Uncle Orion to follow all the way, but fortunately she was just one step slower, otherwise Orion would have to change his career to become a Taoist priest from now on.
"Uncle, why are you here?" She felt a little helpless.
"Stop talking nonsense, go that way." Orion looked at the marks on the ground and pointed in a definite direction.
Now it's okay, she can't even use her mana, so she can only walk over with her head on.
Orion followed the trail on the ground, and the two of them climbed two hills in a row, but Orion's brow became more and more furrowed.
Nearly 40 years of experience still cannot explain the current situation.
There were traces of prey along the way, but there was no sign of biting and fighting, not even a drop of blood.
"Didn't the wolves eat him right away and take him somewhere else?"
Luo Chanyi was tired and thirsty at this time, turned his head to look at him, did not answer, and continued to run forward.
She knew that in the eyes of Orion, it was impossible for Lu Jue to live at all, and she would either be eaten directly or taken home for supper.
But she knew that Lu Jue would not die so easily.
Not to mention how fast he ran, but at many critical moments, he showed agility and calmness beyond his years.
At this time, he estimated that he had already taken refuge in some tall branch.
At last, they climbed a small hill, and were greeted by a mountain wind, damp and cool, mixed with a faint smell of rust.
Luo Chanyi froze his footsteps, and saw that in the sparse pine woods below the slope, black shadows were displayed, all motionless.
"Lu Jue......" she buzzed in her head and rushed down.
The ground was full of wolf corpses, all shapes, some even stuck in the branches, and the blood was dripping down and dripping on the leaves.
The air was filled with a thick fishy stench, which made people sick.
In a fallen leaf far away from the wolves, Lu Jue lay on his back, as motionless as the corpses of the wolves.
Seeing this scene in front of her, her heart hurt as if she had been hit by a hammer.
His mind went blank for an instant, and his body was uncontrollable, staggering and running over.
What she should think about most at this time is how her mission should proceed if Lu Jue is dead.
But that's not the case, she just regretted it incomparably, why didn't she use magic just now, she found him earlier, even if she was seen, what could she do, just look at it, say she is a monster, she also admitted!
Lu must not die!
She almost threw herself at him.
The person in front of him had nothing to do with the handsome young man, and his face was covered with blood.
"Lu Jue!"
Just before her tears were about to fall out, the person in front of her, who looked like a blood gourd, slowly opened her eyes.
He looked at her weakly and said, "Don't be afraid, they're all dead." ”
Luo Chanyi was stunned, and only after a while did she breathe a sigh of relief, and her wheezing brought out an obvious cry, she tried to calm herself down: "I thought you were dead......"
Lu Jue was still lying flat, looking at her in a daze, her eyelashes were stained with blood, and her dark eyes looked a little strange: "Are you worried?" ”
She looked away: "You lead the wolves away for me, if you die like this...... How guilty I am. ”
Lu Jue didn't speak again, supported his arms, slowly propped up his body, and his brows couldn't help but wrinkle in pain.
Luo Chanyi hurriedly helped him, and when he sat up, she found that the clothes on his body were in tatters, and pieces of rags were pulled down, revealing the flesh and blood inside.
It hurt so badly......
Luo Chanyi couldn't help but look back at the wolf corpse on the ground, and wondered in his heart: "Do you know kung fu?" ”
This is what he asked her not so long ago, and interestingly, now it is her turn to ask.
Orion also walked over from the wolf pile at this time, his eyes always fixed on Lu Jue.
Faced with Luo Chanyi's question, Lu Jue's eyes drooped slightly, and he swallowed his saliva inexplicably:
"I didn't kill them, they attacked me at first, but during the tearing the wolves, the wolves began to fight among themselves, and then they bit each other."
"Oh......" she nodded, "That's a coincidence, and it just happened to end up together." ”
Lu Jue glanced at her, didn't speak, and slowly stood up holding on to the tree next to her.
Luo Chanyi raised her eyes to look at Lu Jue, obviously his lying skills were far worse than her, so bad that people could pierce them at a glance.
She couldn't help but think back to many times in the past, when he was able to react extremely quickly in times of crisis, which was definitely not something ordinary people could do.
She remembered the stone cave where she had just hidden, but in fact, there was not a lot of space inside, and it was no problem to fit two people.
She thought that Lu Jue was too panicked at the time and didn't notice this, but now she has reason to suspect that he was just trying to break her away.
Orion walked up to Lu Jue, with an indescribable look in his eyes, he looked at his bruised body: "This injury on your body needs to be dealt with immediately, my house is at the bottom of the mountain......"
"Skin trauma, out of the way." Lu Jue turned around and walked to the grass on the side, carrying the bamboo basket that had been thrown inside beforehand.
Orion also followed, took out a small brown bottle from his chest, and handed it to Lu Jue: "This is a trauma medicine, bring it." ”
Lu Jue glanced at him with some surprise, and stretched out his hand to take it: "Thank you......"
"Needless to say," Orion looked at him intently, his voice suddenly lowered, sounding rough as sand, "I have thanked you on behalf of our elder brothers, as well as the people of Fuxing Town." ”
Lu Jue looked at him in surprise, looked away quietly, and did not speak.
"Uncle, what did you say?" Luo Chanyi also walked over curiously.
She heard Orion talking, but she didn't hear a word, as if she was trying to avoid her.
Orion looked at her, his weather-beaten face still looking very serious, and said, "There are people waiting for you outside, you can't go from that side, if you want to go down the mountain, come with me." ”
Orion took them for a long walk through the woods, eventually leading them to a little-known trail.
In the past, they often passed through here for hunting, but in the past few years, this group of beasts has occupied Fengkou Mountain, and this path is also deserted, but they can vaguely identify the way.
Orion instructed, "If you go all the way here, you have to climb over a mountain before you can get out." ”
Luo Chanyi nodded, looked at Orion and said sincerely: "Thank you, uncle, now that this group of wolves has been removed, you can live your previous life again." ”
Orion nodded, let out a long sigh in his broad chest, and couldn't help but ask more, "Where are you from?" ”
Luojia Village is a regret in her heart, and she will never go back, Luo Chanyi didn't want to say much, and looked at Lu Jue.
Lu Jue said: "Wangling people." ”
Orion looked at Lu Jue with a stunned gaze: "Are you going back?" ”
Lu Jue nodded.
Luo Chanyi looked at the two of them and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
Why did he always think that Orion looked at him with a strange expression, he couldn't tell what was going on, he had been like this since he saw the wolf corpses all over the ground.
At this time, he asked Lu Jue if he was going back, and there was a trace of reluctance in his eyes.
She and Lu Jue walked a long way along the path, she was still puzzled, and said, "Lu Jue, uncle wants to recognize you as his godson." ”
Lu Jue: "......"
Orion stood where he was, looking at the figures of the two men who had disappeared into the moon, and did not move for a long time.
His vision was too narrow to guess where this young man was, yes, the word sacred.
Ordinary people don't have such skills.
But it was clear that he didn't want to reveal his true nature, so he couldn't talk too much.
He examined the bodies of each wolf with his own hands, twelve in all, some with their necks broken, some with their skulls shattered, and some with their ribs and internal organs shattered......
There are different ways to die, although it is man-made, but it is very human.
