Chapter 4 Confrontation with the Enemy
The huge white-scaled beast pressed hard in their direction, and at the last moment, Chu Xiangyun pulled the collar of the absurd and pulled it violently, and the two of them fell to the left at the same time, avoiding the attack.
Without waiting for the fallacy to say anything, Chu Xiangyun slammed the bow handle into a white-scaled beast in the encirclement on the left, and under the surprised gaze of the fallacy, the white-scaled beast was incapacitated on the spot.
"Run!"
did not exceed Chu Xiangyun's expectations, the weak encirclement was torn open, and she ran forward with a twist.
This is not a spirit beast that their strength can deal with at all!
Except for running away, Chu Xiangyun couldn't think of any way to survive.
But this isn't a long-term solution, as the soft sand limits human walking speed, but it's not much of a problem for white-scaled beasts with rough paws, not to mention that they can attack by curling up and rolling.
If Chu Xiangyun had dropped the fallacy at this time, she might have been able to exchange for a little possibility of escape, but she wouldn't do that.
It was an exam, and she made her own choices and commitments.
Sure enough, the huge white-scaled beast rushed from behind them like a huge mountain, but Chu Xiangyun seemed to have eyes on his back and dodged again, and he was stumbled to the ground by her, but he didn't dare to delay time, grabbed Chu Xiangyun's outstretched hand and got up immediately.
After standing firmly, he looked at Chu Xiangyun in a panic, only to find that the cloth belt that Chu Xiangyun tied to the back of her head was missing, and at this time, her eyes were closed tightly, and her face was a little pale.
Without waiting for a detailed question, Chu Xiangyun pulled him to find a direction and continued to escape, closing her eyes as if it didn't affect her vision at all.
Fallacious swallowed the words of concern for Chu Xiangyun, and asked instead, "What should we do now?" ”
To be honest, he didn't know which direction they were heading now, but Chu Xiangyun's firm steps brought him some peace of mind, and although his lungs were about to burn, he still didn't dare to hold her back.
Obviously in the middle of running, Chu Xiangyun's aura didn't seem to change, "False, you should be honest with me." ”
"What...... What? ”
"White-scaled beasts don't attack humans for no reason, and the most likely thing is that they are controlled by humans. They've always been able to pinpoint our location, and they're always targeting you—"
"There's something in you that attracts them."
"Am I right?"
The face of the absurd suddenly lost its blood.
The huge white-scaled beast rushed over again, and Chu Xiangyun knew in his heart that the same trick made the third time, even a beast could see through it.
Chu Xiangyun didn't choose to pull the slim to dodge like before, but pushed him out with force, and the ridiculous fell to the ground hard, followed by a dagger, which was precisely inserted into the sand beside him.
And Fallacious's first instinct was to fumble in his pockets, as empty as he thought.
"Hopefully you'll at least know how to use a knife."
Chu Xiangyun said in his heart.
Then she rushed out like an arrow from a string!
Without the drag of the absurdity, Chu Xiangyun attached the spiritual power to her feet, and the speed was much faster than before, but she deliberately controlled the speed, and while running, she observed behind her with the corner of her eye, and the huge white-scaled beast caught up with him, but a few small white-scaled beasts were scattered, and some stayed in place.
Chu Xiangyun couldn't care so much, because the huge white-scaled beast was already behind her!
The vast desert may be difficult for others to discern the direction, but spiritual power is Chu Xiangyun's best guidance, this is the place where the white-scaled beast is buried, which she has long been optimistic about-
Or maybe it's where she leaves.
The biggest feature here is that there are many rocks, and before the white-scaled beast sprints over, Chu Xiangyun quickly jumped on one of them, even if there was only a little place to stand, it was like walking on the ground for her.
There was no time to aim, Chu Xiangyun skillfully raised his bow and wound it, and several feather arrows shot like meteors, without accident, they were opened by the white-scaled beast with a wave of his hand, broken, and fell to the ground weakly.
Chu Xiangyun listened to the footsteps of the white-scaled beast expressionlessly, perhaps because it had finally caught the disobedient prey, and the beast also had the intention of playing, and with its panting, it walked like a talisman.
Here it comes.
At the moment when the white-scaled beast approached, Chu Xiangyun wanted to repeat the old technique and flash to the side, but was predicted by the white-scaled beast, it let out an angry roar, and the giant claws swung down towards Chu Xiangyun, mercilessly knocking her to the ground.
But that's where it ended.
The huge mouth was held up by a dagger at some point, and it was dripping with blood.
When it wanted to pull it out with its claws in an orderly manner, Chu Xiangyun had already stepped on another boulder, and several feathered arrows shot through the palm of the white-scaled beast, and at the same time, she did not stop, enduring the severe pain of the depletion of spiritual power, and two arrows were shot out one after another.
And these two arrows were aimed at the eyes of the white-scaled beast.
Then came the other hand of the white-scaled beast, as well as the soles of its feet, and it was not until the white-scaled beast's heavy body fell weakly that Chu Xiangyun stopped shooting.
Until this time, the white-scaled beast was still struggling, Chu Xiangyun jumped off the boulder and leaned against the side panting, she pressed her heart with one hand, but her eyes were fixed on the direction of the white-scaled beast.
After a while, Chu Xiangyun walked forward cautiously, even though the white-scaled beast was already motionless, Chu Xiangyun was still vigilant, her hands were trembling constantly, almost groping-like movements, she pulled out the dagger in the mouth of the white-scaled beast, and then plunged it into its heart!
The tail of the white-scaled beast swept over, but the arc was already faint and incalculable, and Chu Xiangyun didn't dodge anymore.
Sure enough, this white-scaled beast just fainted, but Chu Xiangyun also lost the spiritual power to be able to transform arrows, so he took the risk to take the knife, fortunately, the other party was not pretending to be stunned, otherwise Chu Xiangyun would not be sure if he had the strength to dodge again.

What does the world look like for a blind person?
It is nothingness without color.
Chu Xiangyun sat down in place, unable to see anything even if he opened his eyes. She doesn't know when she lost her package, and all she has left is the thing she "snatched" from the fallacious detail, can she be considered to have passed the exam?
Chu Xiangyun's heart was beating violently in her chest, which was a very unfamiliar emotion to her, as if she was a little scared and a little happy, Chu Xiangyun quietly experienced this feeling according to her heart.
Most of the Chu family members are on the battlefield, those who are alive are fighting on the battlefield, those who are dead are dying on the battlefield, and few can return to the Chu family alive. All that was left in the clan were the disabled guys, who were still trying to draw their bows and arrows there with no hands on crutches, and they were arrested and taken to the hospital one by one in three days.
But Chu Xiangyun grew up listening to the stories of these people since she was a child, and the battle was like instinct integrated into her blood and bones, and the Chu family was never afraid of fighting.
She had long thought that there would be a moment when her spiritual power was exhausted, and she did a good job, didn't she?
Chu Xiangyun gently rubbed the feather pendant under his ear, and his breathing calmed down slowly.
Then the world seemed to be awakened again, and a human voice came from Chu Xiangyun's ears.
"Are you okay?"
Chu Xiangyun didn't answer, just blinked her eyes slowly, her long eyelashes couldn't hide the emptiness of her eyes, and the air was silent for a while.
“…… I'm sorry. ”
In the end, the other party took a step back first, and even if he couldn't see his expression, he could hear the guilt in his tone, "It's all because of my ......"
"It's okay." Chu Xiangyun interrupted him, and slowly stood up holding on to the corpse of the white-scaled beast next to him, as if he wanted to reach out to help her, but he hesitated, and finally withdrew his hand weakly.
"Did you see my blindfold on the way here? Without it......" Chu Xiangyun looked around for a moment and lowered his head, "I can't see anything." ”
"Sorry...... The wind and sand were so strong that I didn't see anything. ”
"It's okay, it's good that you survive." Chu Xiangyun smiled, maybe because of the rest of her life after the catastrophe, her words were a little more, "I really didn't expect you to survive." ”
This was a bit prickly, and he touched his nose and explained, "It's all a fluke...... The rest of the ordinary white-scaled beasts are easy to deal with. As if worried that Chu Xiangyun would not believe it, he hurriedly added, "I'll come to you as soon as I'm done, and when I arrive, it's already the scene in front of me." ”
Chu Xiangyun took a deep breath, calmed down slightly, and said, "Can you still recognize our target now?" Although I can't see it now, I won't miss what I promised you. ”
"Hmm...... ...... direction of Jinsha City"
Chu Xiangyun felt that his voice was a little farther and nearer, and turned his head impatiently, "Are you going in circles?" It's noisy. ”
"I'm sorry...... "Excuse mere apologized again, "it should be in this direction." ”
His words paused for a moment, a little embarrassed, "Hmm...... Do you want me to lead you? ”
"Or else?" After losing his eyesight, Chu Xiangyun seemed to be extremely impetuous, which made Mu Shen feel a little at a loss, and hurriedly pulled Chu Xiangyun's hand.
Chu Xiangyun subconsciously dodged the hand that suddenly stretched out, and when she reacted, she stopped a little embarrassed, and let her lead her forward.
There was silence for a while.
After walking for a while, as if remembering something, Chu Xiangyun stopped and turned his head to look at her with a little doubt.
"That's right," Chu Xiangyun took out his pocket and took out a small and delicate token from it, "I'll give this back to you." ”
Without waiting for a reply, Chu Xiangyun forcibly stuffed the thing into his hand, "It's better to put this thing on you, there shouldn't be any more white-scaled beasts attacking during this time." ”
Yu Shen subconsciously tightened his palm, and then hesitated a little, "But this thing ......"
"I know this thing can play a protective role, it's a spiritual weapon, right?"
He nodded, thinking that Chu Xiangyun couldn't see it, and hurriedly replied, "That's the case, relying on it to protect me a lot along the way...... Sorry I didn't tell you before. ”
Chu Xiangyun snorted lightly, sounding a little childish, "I don't care." ”
Her implication was that she wouldn't be greedy for his stuff at all, but it would be petty to make the fallacy of carefully hiding things.
However, it seems that Chu Xiangyun looks like a person who has no shortage of good things, and you can get a glimpse of it from the excellent quality of her weapons and strange blindfolds.
The two set out on their journey again, but the atmosphere was unprecedentedly awkward.
