Chapter Seventy-Seven: Dodge
Meng Xiwen and his entourage are still relatively lucky.
Driving the Qingfeng Mantra forward for about half an hour, the whereabouts of the spirit beast gradually decreased, and Gu Zhong asked everyone to stop.
"You can get around here, and you won't have a problem if you're careful. Gu Zhong looked at a few people and added, "It may be safer to go forward, but the situation is unclear, so let's save our strength first." ”
Gu Shu nodded, and the few people on Qingyuan's side had no other opinions, so they followed behind Gu Zhong according to the original team.
"Be careful, restrain your breath. ”
Gu Zhong admonished, and began to take the lead.
Gu Zhong lowered his body, his eyes staring at the spirit beast passing in the distance, and slowly moved forward under his feet.
Every step is taken very carefully, trying to hide the sound of broken branches and leaves stepping on the fallen leaves in the wind, and immerse yourself in the environment.
The people behind had also been advised, and they also tried their best to put the position where they had stepped on it, so as to reduce the noise as much as possible.
One step, two steps.
Meng Xiwen raised his head and looked around, imitating the movements of the few people in front of him, holding his breath and moving forward step by step.
Everyone bowed down to minimize their presence as much as possible.
Gu Zhong, who was in the lead, also took every step of the way, pinching the timing of each step.
If you take the gathering point of the spirit beast just now as the center of the circle, and the road that the group passes through is the tangent line, then you have to reach the tangent point in front.
This will be the closest position to the center of the circle, and as long as it can be passed safely, then the pressure behind it will suddenly lighten.
Gu Zhong's steps were even more gentle.
Qingyuan's breathing also deliberately became lighter, and the two of Xuan Shouzong even directly stopped breathing.
Gu Zhong passed.
Gu Shu passed.
Fang Zhi'er, boom!
Fang Zhi'er's soles suddenly came with a clear popping sound.
When the autumn wind rises, the branches and leaves flutter and the red leaves flutter all over the sky.
After the wind passed, the dead leaves fell to the ground, and the forest gradually returned to calm.
And between this silence, the strange sound that appeared inexplicably was very abrupt.
Fang Zhi'er tensed her body and remained motionless.
Don't find out, don't find out, it's right ahead!
"Run!"
Gu Zhong shouted, grabbed Gu Shu and ran to the east.
The spirit beasts that had just tried to avoid began to appear from all corners, as if they had smelled wonderful food, and began to rush in this direction.
The noisy hoofs and all kinds of roars come together, making people shiver.
A group of people listened to Gu Zhong's voice, and hurriedly activated the breeze spell on the robe, and ran forward behind Gu Zhong!
Meng Xiwen took the time to turn his head and looked at the spirit beast behind him.
"Run. Chen Zhang saw Meng Xiwen's movements in the back, and urged impatiently.
Meng Xiwen turned his head and continued to run.
Just now when Chen Zhang leaned against the tree, Meng Xiwen felt strange.
The tree looked to be quite old, and it took a few people to barely hug it. But after Chen Zhang leaned in, the clothes on both sides of his back were not deformed at all.
Moreover, the tree looked like a camphor tree, but the smell was clearly a pine tree.
When Meng Xiwen leaned against the tree in the same way as Chen Zhang, there was no problem with the touch of his back, but he confirmed that the deformation of the robe was not reasonable.
Taking advantage of the fact that a few people did not wake up, Meng Xiwen quietly asked Chen Zhang.
Obviously, Chen Zhang knew the reason, but he couldn't say it now.
When he realized this, the scene in front of Meng Xiwen began to gradually reveal a half-truth.
The thick camphor tree has branches and leaves that are sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, revealing some pine needles.
The sleeping wind grass all over the place, flickering with the wind, is clearly falling on the ground stones.
And the group of spirit beasts came and went and gathered together, obviously the worker bees who returned from collecting honey.
I don't know what kind of picture the previous few people saw when they fled for their lives?
"Run!" Chen Zhang urged again.
Meng Xiwen raised his head.
For those few people, they are running for their lives, and they are just acting. But one or two breaths have been hundreds of feet behind the previous people.
Gritting his teeth, learning the movements of the person in front of him, he chased after him with his teeth and claws.
"Here. ”
I don't know how long I ran, a hand stretched out from the side, grabbed Meng Xiwen, and dragged him to the side.
The high-speed run was suddenly interrupted.
Meng Xiwen rolled on the spot, eliminated his inertia, and happened to stop at the entrance of a tree hole.
Looking inside, the people in front of them were hiding inside, leaving only Gu Zhong to answer outside.
In just a moment, Gu Zhong had already led Chen Zhang and walked over quietly.
Gu Zhong motioned for Meng Xiwen and the two to hide in the tree hole, while he stayed at the entrance of the cave, observing the situation outside.
Gu Shu raised his hand and barely formed a barrier to isolate the aura at the entrance of the tree hole.
It's just that the tree hole is not big, and after squeezing seven people, half of Gu Zhong's body is outside. The barrier was pulled by Gu Zhong's body, and it looked crumbling.
Wu Zheng stared at the barrier in front of him, his eyes turned around several people again, and his lips wanted to speak several times, but he finally swallowed back.
But at this moment, he is obviously not the only one who has similar thoughts.
The barrier on the tree hollow, as it looks now, obviously won't last long.
If they were chased by that group of spirit beasts, the current appearance of a few people would be like catching turtles in an urn.
But as long as there is one less person.
I don't know if it's because the tree hole is too narrow and the air is insufficient, or if they just ran away and are too desperate, and the breathing of several people is a little heavy.
Fang Zhi'er: It was her voice just now, if it weren't for her, she might have walked out. Moreover, after all, it was the Fang family, after all, it was Qingyuan's student.
Gu Zhong: Judging by his attitude, he should just be a servant of the Gu family, and it is also a good story to sacrifice his life for the sake of the master's family. Besides, he is at the entrance of the tree hole, and it is most convenient to go out. It's just that without him, without someone to guide the way, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future.
In fact, even if they are allowed to go out, it is not for people to die. With such a large forest, there is always a place to hide.
Meng Xiwen raised his head, and the faces of several people were lit up by the faint light that penetrated through the tree hole, and all kinds of thoughts were clearly visible under the shroud of darkness.
"This barrier won't last long, let me out. Just let me out and you can hide. Fang Zhi'er's voice was slightly crying, "It's all my fault, and I should let me out." Just now, I also stepped on the footprints in front of me, and I don't know why I made a noise and provoked those spirit beasts.
Let me out. I want to have a case, you will send a message to the Fang family, tell me to my parents and relatives about my unfilial piety, and tell them that as a Qingyuan person, I can walk in Qingyuan for my classmates, and I will die without regrets. ”
Fang Zhier's words are sincere, and her beautiful eyes are stained with tears, and she looks pitiful in the faint light.
Chen Zhang couldn't help but pout his lips through the darkness.
Pushing people out is a companion, and they will definitely not do it.
But Fang Zhi'er's behavior is really familiar, if I remember correctly, I can see a lot in the Chen family in Yangping.
Began to point out that you had to push people out in order to continue hiding. and then preemptively, retreating as advance, and unintentionally making mistakes, but also taking the initiative to sacrifice themselves, but people can't speak. Finally, the identities of the Fang family and Qingyuan's classmates were pointed out, which made people weigh it again.
I haven't seen you for a long time, and I really miss the twists and turns of the mortal back house.
Meng Xi snorted coldly, "If you hold on for a while, you don't need to hide for too long." Just now I was behind, and the spirit beasts had already dispersed, now just in case. ”
