Chapter 159: Pursuit in the Forest
After stepping into the woods, Song Qingyou and Xiao Qishu could finally breathe a sigh of relief under the cover of the trees, and when they turned around, they saw seven or eight masked men in the distance who had lost their bows and arrows and replaced them with long knives and chased towards this side.
Without thinking about who these people were and why they were attacked, Xiao Qishu pulled Song Qingyou and went to the depths of the mountain.
The two of them struggled to move forward in the knee-deep primeval forest, and in a short time their clothes were already scratched by some sharp vegetation, and at the same time they were already standing with all kinds of green juice, which at first glance looked like two wild men.
There was a faint shout from the masked man behind him: "Hurry up and there are only two of them, we must not let them escape!" ”
Xiao Qishu naturally heard it, and took Song Qingyou's hand and couldn't help but tighten it, roughly swept the surrounding environment, and chose a direction that seemed to be easier to walk.
Compared to them, the masked man was much faster, and one of them was short in stature, and with his nimble body he clinged to various branches and moved around in the air, and soon spotted them.
The dwarf masked man whistled, and the others who were scattered around to find it immediately surrounded this side, forming an encirclement in the blink of an eye.
Song Qingyou and Xiao Qishu stood back to back, surrounded by masked people, and the long knife in their hands flickered with cold light.
"Up!"
With an order, the masked man raised his sword and attacked the two.
Xiao Qishu held a dagger to block a person, and with a backhand stroke, he instantly turned one, and then moved his foot to hook the long knife in this person's hand and hold it in his hand, and retreated to Song Qingyou's side.
"You take this for self-defense." Xiao Qishu handed the dagger to Song Qingyou.
There is a way that is an inch long and an inch strong, and with a long knife, Xiao Qishu is more handy against the enemy, and he takes Song Qing leisurely and fights and retreats.
Xiao Qishu was facing the other party in front of him, and Song Qingyou was careful that he would not catch it, and at the same time, he also divided his efforts to enter the space to find something that could be used.
The scalpel blades had just run out, and there were some hemostat tweezers left that weren't needed at all, and then some seeds, and there was still a bottle of alcohol for disinfection.
Seeing the alcohol, Song Qingyou's eyes lit up, and he took advantage of the chaos to take it out, and at the same time took out a ball of gauze, sprinkled a part of it on it, wrapped it with a bottle and a piece of saltpeter, and raised his hand to throw it at the person in charge.
"Xiao Qishu, saltpeter!" Song Qingyou pointed to the bottle in the air and shouted.
Although he didn't know why, Xiao Qishu stabbed a sword at the attacking person, grabbed the long knife and threw it at the saltpeter.
Thorn -
The blade collided with the saltpeter and sparked, and the gauze covered with alcohol was instantly ignited, and a blazing flame flew towards the masked man at the head.
The person at the head didn't even think about raising a knife to cut it, and it was in Song Qingyou's arms.
With a bang, the alcohol bottle shattered, and the remaining alcohol pocket was splashed on the person in charge, and the scattered sparks instantly turned into a burning man.
"Ahh
Seeing this, several masked people who were close immediately went up to help extinguish the fire, and the pressure on Xiao Qishu was instantly much less.
Another kick flew away a masked man, taking advantage of the fact that most of their attention was on helping the leader extinguish the fire, Xiao Qishu took Song Qingyou into the forest again.
The fire on the leader's body was finally extinguished, and as soon as he fixed his eyes on the target that was not easy to surround, he ran away again, and suddenly became angry, "A bunch of waste!" Don't be stunned and chase after it, otherwise none of us will want to live! ”
said that Song Qingyou and Xiao Qishu were running for their lives in a panic in the forest, and they faintly heard the sound of rushing water.
Song Qingyou secretly said in his heart, he wouldn't be so unlucky to run into a waterfall.
I was really afraid of something, the sound of the rushing water became more and more deafening, and a waterfall rushing down in front of them cut off the way of the two.
Just as he was about to turn around and change directions, the masked men who had regrouped had already arrived.
The leader's robe was burned in tatters, and it looked comical and embarrassing because it rolled on the ground and took up a lot of dirt and grass roots.
With the experience just now, the leader no longer talks nonsense, and the long knife is instructed to fight quickly.
After the fierce battle just now, the number of masked people has been reduced by one-third, although the number has decreased, but Xiao Qishu's physical strength has also consumed a lot.
Song Qingyou glanced at the height of the waterfall, and thought in his heart whether to jump down and have a better chance of surviving or after fighting hard here.
After the number of people decreased, the offensive became more agile, or it may be that the terrain became opener, and the masked people began to cooperate with each other, which tilted the originally flat situation, which became more and more unfavorable to Xiao Qishu.
Song Qingyou saw that Xiao Qishu's reaction to the enemy was becoming more and more difficult, and his heart was crossed, pulling him to jump down from the top of the waterfall.
The masked men came to the waterfall one after another, only to see the ripples at the bottom.
"Go down and find someone!" The voice of the leader was gloomy, "If you live to see people, you must see corpses when you die!" ”
Song Qingyou had never experienced diving from such a high height, and the first feeling when he fell into the water was that the splash hit his body so painfully, and the next second he was swept up by an undercurrent and the sky was spinning for a while.
"Ahem, cough, cough"
Song Qingyou finally regained control of his body, pulled the aquatic plants on the shore and climbed ashore, poured a lot of water in a panic, and now his mouth is full of the taste of mud and sand.
After coughing for a long time and finally feeling a little more comfortable, Song Qingyou remembered why he didn't see Xiao Qishu.
The water of the waterfall is turbulent, and the waterhole below is even more complicated than it seems, the undercurrent is turbulent, and Song Qingyou doesn't even know where she was swept into a panic, and the terrain in the mountains is very different, she felt panic for the first time.
The clothes on his body were wet, and he suddenly sneezed when he was blown by the mountain wind.
Bang blah blah blah blah~
The originally silent surroundings remembered strange sounds.
"Who!"
Song Qingyou was still holding the dagger just now in his hand, which could be regarded as giving himself a little confidence.
A long knife stretched out from the dense grass, frightening Song Qingyou to retreat again and again, wouldn't he be so unlucky, just climbed ashore and was caught up?
The long knife cleared the grass, and the figure of the person holding the knife completely appeared, Song Qingyou threw the dagger in his hand aside with a bang, and was almost scared to death by Xiao Qishu!
The sound of the dagger landing on the ground also attracted Xiao Qishu's attention, and he looked at the sound and saw Song Qingyou, who was already sitting on the ground, with joy flashing on his face.
"Are you hurt?" Xiao Qishu squatted in front of Song Qingyou and asked.
"I'm fine." Song Qingyou's tone was full of tears.
"It's okay—"
"Wow!"
Xiao Qishu opened his mouth, and Song Qingyou suddenly pulled him over, lying on his shoulder, and suddenly began to cry.
"You, you...... Don't cry. Xiao Qishu threw the long knife aside, raised his hands and didn't know what to do, and finally patted Song Qingyou lightly on the back.
