Chapter 2 Danger

As they walked, they looked at their surroundings, and at this time they were in a small valley in the north of a large mountain range, with dense broad-leaved forests to the north, and the steep peaks of the mass graves in the back, with strange rocks. The mirage is a thousand kilometers away from this mountain range, and there are servants transporting corpses on the mountain from time to time, and there are experts patrolling the mountain to prevent the would-be killers from escaping, and they will definitely die if they are caught. You can only go east from here, away from the mirage, and it is important to fill your stomach and recuperate from your injuries first, and then make plans.

Jiu Ge thought to himself, and led the child towards the dense forest in the east. The wounds on his body were torn again under the tug of the muscle movement, and hunger and tingling filled the nerves. Jiu Ge began to hum and chirp under the severe pain, and picked up a wooden stick as a crutch to continue walking. The child on the side had a pale face and a little weakness in his feet, but he did not stop. The wounds on his body were torn, making the short shirt that was already unrecognizable wet again, Rao was like this, and there was no sound under his closed lips, and his little hand held Jiu Ge a little hard to show comfort. The fact that a seven- or eight-year-old child could have such a great endurance surprised Jiu Ge, and his favor for him rose to another level.

"How did the child come out?" Jiu Ge asked casually, even if the opponent showed mercy, Jiu Ge could only survive by changing his soul, and the principle of the mirage was not to die, how did this third-grade child, at most, have no fatal injuries on his body, how did he deceive the opponent and the post-mortem doctor?

"It's Senior Brother, he gave me the Qi Holding Pill that he unintentionally picked up, and on the training ground, the pill attacked, and when I woke up, I was already in a mass grave. The child's tone was a little sad, like a star's eyes without waves.

Jiu Ge was skeptical of this explanation, not to mention that he had never heard of the Qi Holding Pill himself, and the doctor was not easy to fool. Of course, there is no other explanation, and I can't think of any other possibilities for the time being, and now is not the time to delve into it, and it is certain that he also wants to live, so he shut up and doesn't ask anymore.

The two of them walked and stopped, and finally crossed the ridge, it was noon, and the skin exposed by the sun's scorching scorching, the torn wound scabbed again in the heat, and then tore again, over and over again, and the pain was unbearable.

"Listen, it seems to have the sound of water. Jiu Ge said happily.

"It seems to be in front. The children on the side were also full of joy.

The two of them puffed forward, and after walking for about two hundred meters, a clear spring bubbled down from the cliff wall in front of them, forming a large pond under the cliff.

The spring water was cold, and after a few handfuls, it also restored some spirit. The desire for water is solved, the hunger begins to intensify, the stomach is empty, the stomach acid is constantly rising, and the mouth is sour.

Looking around, it was autumn, and there should be some fruit. Jiu Ge thought to himself and walked towards the forest next to him.

"Where are you going?" The child stood on the edge of the pool, and whispered to Jiu Ge, who was walking straight into the forest, his eyes full of uneasiness, probably thinking that Jiu Ge was going to leave himself.

"Ha, you obediently drink water and rest here, you can hide when people come, my sister will go find something to eat, and I will come back soon." Jiu Ge apologized for forgetting this kid just now, in fact, even if it wasn't for morality, Jiu Ge would not leave him, his intuition was that he was not dangerous to him, and in the deep mountains of this small island, having someone to accompany him could give him a lot of encouragement.

The child was obedient, squatted by the pool, and carefully cleaned the wound on his arm. Jiu Ge walked about a hundred meters to the forest, and his eyes lit up: What a big fig tree! The purple and red fruit hung all over the branches, because of the injuries on his body, Jiu Ge could only pick it nearby, and after sucking a few mouthfuls of the flesh, he picked a small pile and put it away. After picking it, she was worried, and it was completely impossible to bring this small pile back to the pool with two hands, and looked at the clothes on her body, the clothes distributed by the mirage were all short shirts and trousers, and the clothes were so dirty at the moment that she could not say that there was no extra cloth for her to carry these fruits. When I was worried about having nothing to load, I saw a bush of taro next to me, Jiu Ge was happy again, the soil in the forest was soft, and I pulled it hard, and I uprooted it. Tear off a few taro, wrap the figs and taro with wide taro leaves, and walk back.

Now that I can finally have a good meal, the memory of the last time I ate seems to be far away. Soon returned to the pool, at this moment the child was rolling up his high trouser legs, sitting on the edge of the pool to wipe the wounds on his legs, seeing Jiu Ge come back, his little face turned red, and he quickly put down his trouser legs.

Seeing this scene, Jiu Ge couldn't help but laugh, and sure enough, the shy children were the cutest.

"Sister"'s weak children's voice aroused Jiuge's desire to protect, and she couldn't help but reach out and rub the child's messy hair.

"Let's find a hidden place to eat some fruit to cushion our stomachs, and then treat the wounds when we are full. ”

The two of them carried the fruit and taro towards a boulder in front of the cliff, forming a small triangular gap between the stone and the cliff, and the opening was biased towards the cliff, which was well concealed, just enough for the sister and brother to hide.

Figs are high in sugar, but they are not very satiety, and they are not salty. For people who have been practicing martial arts for a long time, if they don't have enough salt intake, they will always be worse in terms of spirit and spirit, and they won't last long if they encounter a fight. There is no danger along the way, but there is no guarantee that you will not encounter a mountain patrol team or beasts on the next road, so you should be vigilant until you are injured, and plan how to get out of here after you are injured.

When you have finished eating, bury the remaining peels to prevent them from being discovered by passing mountain patrol teams. Turning his head and seeing the pile of taro, eating taro is better than eating figs to fill the stomach, but here, making a fire is easy to attract a mountain patrol team, and if he is caught, all the previous efforts will be in vain. It's hard to say what adverse reactions will occur when eaten raw, so simply wrap the taro leaves and throw them in the water.

After solving these problems, Jiu Ge sat down on the ground with his back against the stone.

"It feels so good to be full. "I have a little strength in my body, and the children on the side are also much more energetic.

Jiu Ge raised his hand and sniffed his clothes, the smell of blood and the smell of rot in the pile of dead bodies was very strong, and the original white clothes were stained beyond recognition by blood.

"We smell too much blood, and if there is a beast of prey, we will have dinner. Jiu Ge said as he thought of a way. Jiu Ge had seen in the mirage that the mountain patrol team would sacrifice some of the beasts to the upper echelons from time to time, and for so many years, the beasts in the mountains had decreased sharply, but there was no guarantee that they would not be encountered.

"My sister went to wash, I recognized some herbs to stop bleeding, and I went to find some nearby. ”

"Then the child should be careful, forget if you can't find it, don't go far. "The ages of the two generations of Jiuge are over forty years old, and as an old aunt, she has an unconcealed desire to protect the weak. Or rather, a sense of dependence on her only partner, in short, she didn't want him to be in any danger.

Jiu Ge moved to the water's edge and looked at himself in the reflection, his hair was still the same as before, and it was dirty and messy at this time. The mud and dried blood stains are paste, the small face is slightly thin, the teeth are thin, the lips are thin, and the peach blossom eyes are smart and charming, if it is clean, it is still a beauty. Based on the civilized thinking of a civilized person who takes a hot bath every two days, facing himself like a savage at this moment, Jiu Ge can't wait to jump into the pool and take a pleasant bath.

But there are many inconveniences in the deep mountains, and the pool water is cold, in order to prevent colds, Jiu Ge can only squat on the edge of the pool and slowly scrub the wound.

When he washed his face and was about to tie his hair back into a braid, the child ran back from the woods behind him in a panic, and pulled Jiu Ge to the crack in the stone just now with a panicked expression.

"This..."

"Shhhhhh The child's expression was tense, and Jiu Ge was about to ask what the situation was, but he interrupted him.

When the Seven Star Sect came to Penglai Island, it was killed by someone and cleaned up the place.

"Are there any hounds?" Jiu Ge, who suddenly thought of this question, was a little anxious, and his voice trembled.

The child looked at her with the same horror on his face. The patrol team has a standard hound, which is probably 90 percent, and if there are hounds, the hiding place of the two will not play a role at all, and the hounds will soon find them according to the smell.

The barking of dogs came faintly, and at this moment, the hearts of the two of them were only certain death, and the despair in their hearts forced Jiu Ge to find a way. She doesn't want to die yet, she can't die yet.

Suddenly, Jiu Ge's gaze looked at the pool.

"Yes, water, hide in the pool, the water here is flowing, it can hide our smell very well, and even if it can't, the water will carry the smell downstream, lure away the hounds, and you can buy a little time. Jiu Ge pulled the child and said as he hurried to the edge of the pool, took a deep breath, and swam to the middle of the pool.
