CHAPTER XLII
The autumn rain was like smoke and mist, silently falling on the rubble heaps and dead branches and leaves in the clearing, drenching the ground and the trees. A drop of rain fell on her face, shouldn't she be glad that the leaves were quite thick enough to block most of the rain for her.
A sword sound pierced the air, mixed with rain and stabbed towards Shen Yi.
Finally, I can't help it, are you coming?
Shen Yi swallowed the last bite of tiger meat in his mouth and quickly stepped back, avoiding the tip of the sword. By the night, hidden behind a tree, holding your breath and concentrating.
Suddenly, there was a sound of fighting in the place where she had just left.
She subconsciously frowned, and her eyebrows gathered into ripples.
Is there another person? Are you going to kill her?
But since it can fight, it shouldn't be a group of people...... But one thing is certain, no matter what the outcome, whoever dies, or loses both, doesn't it hurt her, does it?
As time passed, after a muffled sound, the fighting gradually subsided. She was huddled quietly behind a tree, her spirit tense.
The sound of the "shuttle ......" steps on the fallen leaves is getting closer and closer......
Shen Yi held the short sword in his hand and raised his hand to stab at the comer.
Qin Gui grabbed her wrist and said in a deep voice, "It's me." ”
This voice....... So familiar. Shen Yi's mind was in chaos, and he listened to a voice, not to kill her, his voice was also very familiar......
The tense strings in Shen Yi's mind broke the moment Qin Gui opened his mouth. It's good to be alive again, Shen Yi hooked his lips with great effort, the short sword in his hand slipped to the ground, and his body fell straight backwards.
But who is it? She struggled to open her eyes to see who the person in front of her was, but her eyelids were too heavy, and she only opened a slit in the effort, and it was pitch black, and she could only see a vague shadow of a person...... Forget it, get some sleep, she thought.
She thought about many possibilities, but she never thought that someone would come to save her..... She never expected much from others....... However, it seems that it feels good to be rescued.
"Shen Yi?" As soon as Qin Gui squatted down, he smelled a strong smell of blood. He pursed his lips, picked up Shen Yi, and said, "Go and check." ”
A shadow passed through the shadows of the trees and quietly disappeared into the night......
Shen Yi felt that her body was vacating in a daze, and the feeling of vacating made her uneasy, and she shrank into Qin Gui's arms with great effort, looking for a place where she could feel safe.
There was a faint scent on him, but she couldn't remember what it smelled for a while, but it smelled good......
She had just killed a white tiger, and there must have been a tiger's den nearby.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier. Shen Yi in his arms had fallen into a nightmare, and he couldn't hear what he was saying clearly...... Qin Gui only faintly heard the heat, and raised his hand to probe her forehead.
It was so hot, his brow furrowed, and he hugged her tighter, and the pace of the search couldn't help but speed up a lot, her head was so hot that she couldn't get caught in the rain anymore.
Finally, he found a stone cave in a cluster of bushes, and Qin Gui carefully leaned Shen Yi against the stone wall, and he was going to find some dry branches. But...... He glanced down at her, he didn't feel at ease that she was alone here.
Sighing slightly, he carried Shen Yi to a place close to the entrance of the cave where the rain could not be drenched, and he looked for some wood outside the entrance of the cave that could be burned, so that he could see her when he raised his eyes.
Fortunately, the foliage in the hunting grounds kept out most of the rain, and though he could count the burning wood on two hands, it was probably enough, enough to burn until morning.
