Chapter 34, to add insult to injury, heavy casualties
Tian Hao is speeding towards Limingfang City on the map, and Shangguan Ruoxi's side, seeing that the sky is getting darker and darker, it will be night in more than two hours, and the distance between himself and his group from Limingfang City will take at least three hours to arrive at the current speed.
A group of their own people are all injured, and the strong smell of blood has been following everyone, so they have attracted a lot of demonic beasts, but the sky has not yet darkened, and the strength of those demonic beasts is not too strong, and they have not launched an attack for the time being.
But once it gets dark, those guys will be furious and will attack, so she is very anxious.
She really wants everyone to speed up, but including herself, she is injured, He Hao is still being carried on a stretcher, and the most serious Xiao Xiaocheng is still unconscious, and this speed can't be increased anyway!
Shangguan Ruoxi's anxious expression, He Hao, who was lying on the stretcher, naturally saw it in his eyes, and he also knew the crisis that his group was currently facing, so he struggled to sit up and said, "Senior sister, you better go first, just catch up with a few of us later!"
"I'm not going to give up on anyone, don't say it again!" The stubborn Shangguan Ruoxi interrupted He Hao's words, and then walked in the front himself, serving as a pioneer and also playing a vigilant role......
Time passed quickly, and seeing that the sky was obviously darkening, Shangguan Ruoxi had to start thinking about the issue of defending against the attack of the demonic beast.
At the same time, because Shangguan Ruoxi and his entourage did not take the route marked on the map in order to take a shortcut, Tian Hao, who caught up, successfully staggered with them and chased after Limingfang City!
Finally, when the last rays of sunlight began to sink into the horizon, the various nocturnal monsters in the Warcraft Forest began to come out of their hiding places.
The roars and roars of all kinds of demonic beasts began to sound, and those carnivorous demonic beasts that had been following the Xuanjian Sect's team were even more ready to move, and they looked like they would attack at any time, making the already heavy group of people even more nervous!
"Senior sister, Xiao Tangerine is awake!" At this moment, a disciple who was in charge of taking care of Xiao Xiaotang told Shangguan Ruoxi that Xiao Xiaotang, who was unconscious, had woken up.
Hearing this news, Shangguan Ruoxi's mood suddenly improved a lot.
But when she ran over and saw Xiao Xiaocheng's state, her originally slightly relaxed mood became more nervous.
Xiao Xiaocheng did wake up, but her state was not normal, at this time she was twisting her body and struggling, and the two disciples were pressing her on the stretcher!
I saw Xiao Xiaocheng's eyes were blood-red, his face was hideous and terrifying, his body was covered with a burst of red energy mist, and his whole body was bulging! Especially the blood-red veins on the face, coupled with the blood-red eyes, which look like they are devastating, it makes people's backs chill when they look at it.
Shangguan Ruoxi pulled away a disciple, grabbed Xiao Xiaotang's hand and asked, "What's wrong with you, Xiaotang?" Don't scare me! ”
"Ah......" Xiao Xiaocheng let out a hoarse roar, and when she saw that it was Shangguan Ruoxi, she seemed to regain a trace of her senses.
"Senior sister, I'm so uncomfortable......" Xiao Xiaocheng looked at Shangguan Ruoxi, and said with a look of help in his eyes: "Senior sister, kill me, I'm so uncomfortable......"
"Little orange, why are you uncomfortable?" Shangguan Ruoxi had never experienced this kind of situation, and his mentality was about to collapse because of the continuous attacks, but now when he saw Xiao Xiaocheng in this situation, he was suddenly confused!
Xiao Xiaocheng was in this situation in order to save herself, how could she let Xiao Xiaocheng have an accident?
However, at this time, she is obviously abnormal, except for the slightly normal eyes when she looks at herself, she looks at everyone with a look that will explode at any time!
Misfortune is not a one-way street, just when Shangguan Ruoxi didn't know how to deal with Xiao Xiaotang's problem, several demonic beasts that had been following the team before also attacked.
These are five demonic beasts with spikes more than a foot long, pointed beaks and four legs, and a tail more than three meters long, which is nearly two meters long in addition to the tail body length and about one meter tall.
Although they are only of the first order of Jindan, they have been baring their teeth and constantly emitting bursts of fox-like cries, obviously a group of carnivores and very bold!
These demonic beasts seemed to have been staring at Xiao Xiaotang, and the attack was also coming towards her.
Therefore, several Xuanjian Sect disciples near Xiao Xiaotang bore the brunt of the attack.
With Shangguan Ruoxi here, she naturally would not sit still, and directly ordered a counterattack, several disciples immediately divided labor, two protected Xiao Xiaocheng, and three took the initiative to attack.
However, when their attack hit them, the spikes on their bodies didn't look so dense, but they blocked the flying swords of the three Xuanjian Sect disciples, and one of the swords was even stuck in the middle of the spikes on one of the backs!
Of course, the demonic beast that was stabbed by the sword was naturally angry, and I saw that the spikes on the back of the demonic beast with the flying sword stuck on its back suddenly all stood up, and then let out an angry howl, and its body slammed!
"Whew......" A spike broke away from the body and flew in all directions.
These flying spikes were not only fast but also numerous, and a few disciples of the Xuanjian Sect who were close to them didn't have time to avoid them at all, and they were hit one after another!
A miserable scream sounded, and these Xuanjian Sect disciples who were pierced by the spikes fell to the ground and rolled over, and their faces changed in red and black.
"Suffer, these spikes are poisonous, everyone, gather together, break through quickly!" Shangguan Ruoxi's heart tightened, but he still forced his composure to give the order to move.
A group of people had to choose to flee, but the few monsters took the opportunity to bite a wounded man who fell to the ground.
Five demonic beasts attacked at the same time, and his fate can be imagined.
Listening to the disciple's screams, Shangguan Ruoxi felt uncomfortable, but she didn't have any choice, she was stunned for a moment and chose to continue walking......
After running for more than 2,000 meters, a group of people finally got rid of the five demonic beasts that were like enlarged hedgehogs, and at the same time, the team also lost five people.
To be exact, it was not that they threw off the enemy, but because the enemy had their own food and gave up the pursuit!
Those five Xuanjian Sect disciples could be regarded as exchanging their lives for the safety of the team.
A group of people stopped on the edge of a cliff tens of meters high!
Shangguan Ruoxi began to count the number of people, but after counting, he found that there were eight people missing, and there were only fifteen of the team of twenty-three people left, which can be described as heavy casualties.
This is not the most painful, the most painful thing is - Xiao Xiaotang is gone!
"Suffered!" Shangguan Ruoxi suddenly remembered a slight muffled snort he heard when he ran away just now, and now that he thinks about it, these eight achievements are Xiao Xiaocheng.
She should have been afraid of injuring the team, so when everyone's attention was all on the road and running, she quietly flipped off the stretcher!
"You protect He Hao and everyone to continue on their way, and I'll go find Xiao Tangerine!" Shangguan Ruoxi grabbed a disciple who was not injured and said.
After saying that, she ran the way she came!
"Senior Sister ......" passed by He Hao's side, He Hao on the stretcher grabbed Shangguan Ruoxi!
"He Hao, we can't leave Xiao Tangerine behind!" Shangguan Ruoxi said with a straight face: "I'm not here to save us, and she won't be injured like that!"
He Hao was silent, indeed, Xiao Xiaocheng has not been in the same state of enchantment just now for so many years, if it wasn't for saving everyone just now, she would probably still be the cute Xiao Xiaocheng!
Seeing that He Hao was silent, Shangguan Ruoxi comforted: "You go first, I'll be back soon!" After saying that, he accelerated and ran in the direction he came......
It's a pity that when she returned to the place where she heard the sound of Xiao Xiaotang rolling down before, she only saw a ground of blood and a sleeve of her clothes.
Judging from the material and color, this sleeve is Xiao Xiaocheng's!
Just when Shangguan Ruoxi was about to call "Little Orange", suddenly a tiger roar came from not far away!
This roar frightened Shangguan Ruoxi, but she still had the courage to sneak over quietly.
She wanted to see if Xiao Xiaotang had encountered a demonic beast, but she never believed that Xiao Xiaocheng died like this!
However, when she approached the sound for more than thirty meters or so and opened a bush to look over, her heart was broken!
The voice just now was indeed a white-eyed white tiger, it seemed to have just finished eating at this time, but Shangguan Ruoxi didn't see Xiao Xiaotang, there was only a piece of clothing on the ground, and blood all over the ground, and no one was seen!
"Little Orange ......" saw those pieces of clothes, and Shangguan Ruoxi burst into tears.
The clothes were obviously Xiao Xiaotang's, and at this time, Shangguan Ruoxi finally determined that Xiao Xiaotang had encountered an accident!
With a heavy heart, she stepped back cautiously.
After reaching a safe distance, she ran in the direction of the group crying!
Shangguan Ruoxi, who returned to the team, didn't say a word, didn't cry or make trouble, she only said "all speed up", and then began to speed up in the direction of Limingfang City!
The injured disciples also knew what was going on, so they gritted their teeth and endured the pain and hurried away......
Did Xiao Xiaotang really encounter an accident? No, just now in the area where Shangguan Ruoxi saw the White Tiger Demon Beast, Xiao Xiaocheng was lying in a dead tree that had fallen to the ground and was rotting inside.
Her eyes were bloodshot red, her face was bruised, and she looked very painful!
Just over ten meters in front of her, the white-eyed tiger sat there watching her like a family dog.
That's right, it has already discovered Xiao Xiaotang!
The fragments of clothes just now were also Xiao Xiaocheng's, but they were not caused by the attack of this white tiger, but another canine demonic beast.
At that time, Xiao Xiaocheng was bitten on the hem of her skirt, and in order to escape for her life, she directly tore off her skirt and rolled to the mouth of the dead tree and climbed in.
Just as the demonic beast was about to attack, the white-eyed white tiger appeared.
Its strength was much stronger than the canine demonic beast that attacked Xiao Xiaotang, and it took three rounds to solve and eat the canine demonic beast.
However, it did not leave after eating, but kept sitting there looking at Xiao Xiaotang in the tree hole.
Xiao Xiaotang can be sure - it did find itself, but for some reason it didn't attack itself.
At first, she thought that the white tiger was full, but when it ate another demonic beast that wanted to attack her, Xiao Xiaocheng finally determined that this guy was not hungry.
What's even stranger is that she didn't feel the murderous aura on this white tiger, and there was no killing intent in her eyes when she looked at her, it seemed to be protecting herself?
