Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Blade

He Er limped along, still thinking in his heart, whether it would be easier to get out of this mountain forest by turning back now or continuing to walk, now he no longer had the luxury of catching up with those two juniors, but was just thinking about how to get out of the way.

There was another trap in front of it, and it was still a bamboo stick.

He Er cursed silently and bypassed it from afar. Being hit in the field he is good at makes him a little impetuous, and it is inevitable that he is a little less focused, focusing only on his feet and ignoring the top of his head.

At this time, the clouds were lurking in the treetops, staring at He Er without blinking, and the bamboo bow and arrow in his hand were already wet with sweat. Closer, closer.

Whoosh, a bamboo arrow shot at He Er's heart like lightning.

The injury on his foot greatly affected He Er's posture, and he only had time to move half a step to the left, but his right arm was slashed, bringing out a two-foot-long blood trough.

Ahh It's not just that it hurts, but it's unwilling. The transformation from a hunter to a prey was psychologically unacceptable to him.

Almost as he was wounded by an arrow, he shot a steel dart into the treetops. This hand dart technique is also a stunt that he is famous for, and he can hit the opponent with no eyes at all, just by feeling it in his hand.

But this time he missed again, and the kid in the tree dodged his killer trick for the second time. Like a monkey, with the rebound of a branch, he jumped onto another tree at the moment of success, and then slipped down and quickly escaped.

He Er was completely furious, and even lost his mind a little. Regardless of the injuries on his body, he chased after him.

The clouds were not having a good time, and the long-distance running almost in the afternoon and preparing traps from time to time had exhausted his physical strength to the limit. If it weren't for the constant mobilization of internal force to transport to his limbs, he could hardly lift his legs and continue running. Now the two of them are already at the end of their crossbows, and the depth of their skills can no longer play a decisive role. Everyone competes in willpower, and whoever can persevere until the end will be able to live. The only one who can't hold on is death.

got closer, and was caught up by the other party for half a mile. Turning the uphill cloud in front of him, he stopped, rolled on the ground, and was covered in mud. Then leaning against the shadow of a collapsed dirt slope, he slowed his breathing, adjusted his heartbeat, and even closed his eyes slowly, slowly blending into his surroundings.

As soon as he hid his figure, He Er appeared around the corner. He Er didn't notice the clouds, he only thought about catching up and killing the other party now, and his eagerness made him lose his previous keen insight. As he quickly passed through the cloud's hideout, the long-awaited cloud struck.

With almost all the remaining internal force in the clouds, a punch hit He Er's heart.

Before Yun could rejoice, he was kicked in the lower abdomen, and the person flew out diagonally.

He Er's reaction was too fast, and he kicked out almost subconsciously with a scorpion swinging his tail while making a move in his heart. Fortunately, due to insufficient preparation, only four successes were used. But this time he almost took half a life in the clouds, and he didn't dodge it when his internal strength was exhausted.

The two vomited blood at the same time and fell back, but He Er's blood was strangely black. Holding on to a tree, He Er looked at the clouds lying on the ground with blood foaming in his mouth with a hideous smile.

"How's that boy? It's nice to have a good kick? It would be better if you went down an inch! Don't lie down and pretend to be dead, get up and run! Keep running. Aren't you very good at running after all these days? Now I'll let you run enough. Because I'll break your legs and cut off your arms in a minute, and then you won't be able to run again. You can only wriggle in the mire like a maggot. Don't worry, I won't kill you for a while, I will find that girl and ravage her in front of you. Then he cut off her fingers and toes one by one, and slowly drained her blood. She would wail for a whole day and a night before she died. Eventually, I'll hang your bodies from a tree and let them out in the scorching sun until you stink and the crows peck at the carrion piece by piece.

Poof, Yun struggled to sit up and spat out a mouthful of bloody spit.

"Originally, I thought you were a character because of your strong martial arts skills, but I didn't expect you to be so psychologically distorted! Don't you have normal people in the Sky Wolf Gang? But you don't have a chance to do the things you said. Do you feel your heart beating faster at the moment? Your eyes are darkening! Breathing is getting harder and harder, and you feel like you're going to vomit! Hehe, maybe you'll hallucinate in a while!"

"What have you done to me!" Feeling his own situation, He Er's face instantly turned pale.

"Hehe, I was attacked by a five-step snake before we could meet us. Thankfully, I killed it. So I smeared its venom on the tip of the arrow. Unfortunately, it was the arrow that hit you just now. Originally, if you found out early, you can still use internal strength to force the poison out. I believe that it should not be too difficult for a master like you, and it will take a little time at most. But you were blinded by anger, and your dignified master, the second protector of the Sky Wolf Gang, was calculated and played by an unknown junior. You are unwilling, and you are bent on catching me and killing me. I didn't notice anything wrong with me. Do you know why I'm running with you for so long? The faster and farther you run, the faster the blood circulates, and now the poisonous blood has already invaded the heart. You're not going to live! You're going to die at the hands of a little man like me.

After hearing this, He Er's face became even more gloomy, but he gradually regained his composure.

"You're great, boy! You're calmer and more calculating than your peers. And his skills are also very good, and his shots are decisive enough. If you are given a few more years, you may be able to grow into a hegemonic character. But you don't have a chance, one thing you're right, I'm a master. Maybe I'm too deeply poisoned to be cured, but it's not difficult to suppress the poison for a few hours with my strength, so you should die first!"

Saying that, He Er struck the cloud like lightning, and the cloud seemed to have been prepared, and his body rolled backwards and down the hillside, not knowing how many flowers and plants were crushed. Rolling to the bottom of the slope, he quickly got up and ran into the woods, and disappeared again in a blink of an eye.

"This cunning boy!" He Er knew that he had been fooled again. This kid was kicked by himself just now, and he obviously lost the ability to move. Talking so much to myself is nothing more than trying to get a respite. Now that he has regained a little strength, he is running again.

Stomping his feet, He Er chased after him again, his heart was ruthless, even if he died, he would drag this kid to be buried with him.

So the life-and-death chase in the wilderness began again.

It was getting dark. In the two hours of pursuit, the two had three more brief encounters. Every time, the clouds do not collide with him head-on, and they take advantage of the terrain and complex environment to make a sneak attack. If you miss a hit, you will immediately run away. Although it didn't bring fatal damage to He Er, it also made him tired to deal with.

He Er was not having a good time at this time, the qi and blood in his chest and abdomen were surging, and his eyes were black for a while. He knew it was a symptom of deep poisoning. The toxin has spread all over the body along with the qi and blood, and no matter how deep his internal force is, he can't suppress it.

"It looks like I'm really going to die in the wilderness!" a wry smile appeared on He Er's face. I want to be the protector of the Heavenly Wolf Gang, and I have been crisscrossing the north of the river for so many years. Everywhere he goes, he is high up and domineering. There are not a hundred or eighty masters from all walks of life who have died in their hands over the years. Now that he is being played by a junior, and he is highly poisoned and has no cure, it is really ironic!

Dejected, he dragged his injured leg and walked for half a mile, and there was a small pool in front of him, and the water quality was quite clear. He Er found a stone by the pool and sat down, wanting to clean the wound and relieve his breath by the way. Before he could sit down, there was a bang, and a figure rose from the pool. A bamboo arrow shot into the chest with a sharp wind-breaking sound. He Er wanted to hide, but the injuries on his feet, his tired body, and his sluggish reaction after poisoning made him feel inadequate. I could only watch as an arrow passed through my chest. And the young man who was being chased by himself knelt by the pond, his face was pale, trembling and panting. This is the picture He Er saw in the last moment of his life.

"It's finally settled!" said the cloud as he knelt down. The brain has gone blank due to lack of oxygen. The muscles of my body ached like pins and needles. He knew it was a phenomenon of detachment. If this guy can hold on for another half an hour, he will be the one who dies!

Yun knew that when he fled to this pool, he had no strength to continue running, so he had no choice but to hold a hollow grass stalk and slowly sink into the water. Originally, I just wanted to take a break and continue on the road, but I didn't expect He Er to come here too. Seeing that he was seriously injured and in a trance. Yun knew that the opportunity to fight to the death had come, so he used all his strength to rush out of the water and deliver the fatal blow. Unexpectedly, he really gambled right, and the once invincible Heavenly Wolf Gang Protector died in his own hands like this.

Now Yun's heart does not have the satisfaction and excitement of killing a strong enemy, the only thing he wants to do is to find a little peace and then sleep well.

At this time, the little man curled up in the cave for many years, and the sky gradually got dark. The little mood slowly sank to the bottom like the falling sun. Anxious, hesitant, worried, and even a little sad. The little heart is like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, and there is an indescribable taste. Although they had only known each other for a few days, the man's smile and his resolute look before leaving kept coming to her eyes.

Looking at the moon slowly climbing up the branches, Xiaoxiao clenched the scimitar in his hand. The time agreed with him has come, but he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. I couldn't wait any longer, so I made up my mind. I won't run away alone, I want to go to him, even if I die, I will die with him.

At this time, there was a rustling of footsteps outside the cave, and the little hearts were also clenched together. Who could it be?

She is not afraid that it is He Er who comes, and the big deal is that she will lose her life. But she was afraid to see He Er, if it was really him, it meant that the man who desperately protected herself from harm had already left her first. She knew that the clouds would not retreat, and He Er wanted to hurt herself by crossing the corpse of the clouds first.

In the midst of the entanglement, a familiar face with a tired smile came into view.

"I'm back!" is worth a thousand words. In an instant, small tears poured out like a river bursting its banks. She couldn't bear the torment in her heart any longer, and cried and threw herself into his arms, holding him tightly, as if he would disappear again.

After a long time, Xiaoxiao's mood calmed down a little, and his face was feverish, after all, it was the first time he had such intimate contact with a man. She raised her red eyes to say something, but found that the man in her arms had fallen asleep.
