The tip of the sword quickly approached the soft white fur belly of the long-eared tiger. The tip almost touched the white fur.
Lin Xin's mind was almost blank. He watched helplessly as the long-eared tiger rushed towards him, but his body had no time to react. He could only hold the sword in his hand tightly with all his strength.
Click.
The sword broke like a dead branch, and his whole body was suddenly knocked aside by a strong force from the side.
"Brother, leave quickly!!"
Only then did An Ying's voice come.
It was she who kicked Lin Xin away hard, while she was caught on the right leg by the long-eared tiger, and her body was rolled by the huge force and rolled out to a large extent on the ground.
"An Ying!" Lin Xin got up from the ground and shouted.
"Leave me alone! You go first, I'm fine!" An Ying quickly jumped up from the ground and stabbed the long-eared tiger's eyes with the sword blade in her hand.
Lin Xin also knew that he was a drag, and the best thing to do now was to get out of the hunting range of the long-eared tiger.
Ouch!
The long-eared tiger roared and pounced on An Ying, but she quickly ducked aside. However, because of her leg injury, An Ying moved very much like a shield, and was only a little bit unable to avoid it. It looked extremely thrilling.
One man and one tiger were circling around some big trees in the forest, dodging left and right.
"Damn it!" Lin Xin secretly hated himself for being careless and despising the long-eared tiger. But now he had no choice but to run away quickly. As long as he escaped first, it would be much easier for An Ying to escape.
He ran forward quickly, and the dense forest ahead became darker and darker. There were tall unknown trees everywhere, and the sunlight could not penetrate through the large number of leaves and shine in.
The roar of the tiger behind him became more and more distant.
Lin Xin felt a little pain in his wrist. It was obviously twisted when the sword was broken just now, but he didn't care about it now. He quickly threw it a distance and didn't stop until there was almost no sound behind him.
"You have to find a big tree to climb up. Otherwise, if a long-eared tiger chases you, you will be in trouble!"
Looking around for big trees that could be easily climbed, Lin Xin tried hard to calm his rapid breathing and concentrate.
It was quiet in the forest, without any sound except for the occasional rustle of leaves in the wind.
Lin Xin looked back and saw that the direction he came from was no different from the surrounding environment. The ground was covered with thick fallen leaves, and not even footprints could be seen.
At a glance, you can see a faint white mist in the distance through the gaps in the trees.
Most of the surrounding trees are tall and straight, and there are basically no types for climbing.
"Here..." Lin Xin was worried about his junior sister An Ying, and quickly walked towards the forest with more trees, trying to find a tree that was easy to climb.
He didn't know where he had run to, but this place always made him feel a little scared for some reason.
Standing alone in the middle of the forest, the trees are a little black, and there is white mist everywhere in the distance. There is no sunlight, giving people an inexplicable pale feeling.
The trees are like countless slender black lines, rising from the ground and rushing upward.
There was a faint blue color in the sky above the woods, and the light above gradually dimmed.
Lin Xin was walking alone in the woods, and he already felt that something was wrong. Not only could he not hear any sound around him, but even the wind seemed to have stopped.
The distance that the eyes can see is getting shorter and shorter, and the grass and plants on the ground have become dark.
Thump, thump...thump....
His feet kept stepping on the dead leaves on the ground, making a crisp and conspicuous sound. It seemed to be the only sound in the forest.
Suddenly, a faint sound came from the front. It seemed to be a human voice!
Lin Xin's heart was lifted, and he quickened his pace and walked in the direction of the sound.
As the distance gets closer, the sound becomes clearer and clearer.
woo woo woo woo...
It seemed to be the cry of a woman.
Lin Xin paused for a moment, and immediately picked up his speed again. If someone was crying in a place like this, he was probably lost or injured. He still had some medicine on him, which might be able to help him. Then he could ask him about this mountain.
Lin's situation.
Walking forward for some distance, the fog in front gradually dispersed.
Lin Xin vaguely saw a woman in white clothes kneeling on the ground in front of her, covering her face with her hands, crying with her back to him.
The cry was faint, as if it was very painful and timid.
Since the woman's back was turned to him, he couldn't see her face clearly. Lin Xin tried to take a few steps closer and was about to open his mouth.
Suddenly, he felt something was wrong and felt a little nervous.
The clothes on that woman are too white...too clean!
"If you were someone who was lost or injured, your clothes wouldn't be so white and neat..." Suspicion flashed through Lin Xin's mind, and when he looked at the surrounding environment, he suddenly became even more horrified.
His forward steps suddenly stopped.
Click!
Suddenly, he seemed to have stepped on some brittle dead branch, making an obvious crunching sound.
At this moment, the woman's crying actually stopped. Her shrugging of shoulders also stopped slightly.
"Oops!" Lin Xin's scalp was numb and he didn't dare to move.
The woman remained motionless, as if listening to the sound. After waiting for a while, she found nothing, and she began to cry softly again.
Woo hoo....
The cry is sad and timid.
Lin Xin felt more and more something was wrong. He breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly walked around the forest, trying to change the direction and look at the front of the woman.
After thinking for a while, he began to walk around to the left, hiding behind the trees while slowly moving his body.
What made his hair stand on end was that no matter how he changed his position, the direction in which the woman was crying was always facing away from him.
From beginning to end, your back was turned to him!
"Hiss..." Lin Xin knew that he was in trouble. He had heard the old man say since he was a child that you should not run around in such deep woods, otherwise you will encounter some unclean things.
He didn't think so at first, but now...
"retreat....."
Lin Xin felt cold sweat dripping from his vest on his forehead, and while staring at the woman, he slowly backed away.
Slowly retreat...
puff.
Suddenly he felt something hit his back.
That silhouette, that height, seemed to be that of a person, a person standing upright behind him!
Cold sweat suddenly broke out from Lin Xin's whole body...
Suddenly he turned around, holding the broken sword in his hand and about to stab forward.
But he was shocked to find that there was no one behind him, just a thin tree trunk...
"Fuck!" Lin Xin couldn't help but cursed. He accelerated and trotted away from the woman. At this time, his only thought was to stay as far away from the woman as possible.
Time passed by minute by second, and sweat had wet the back of Lin Xin's clothes.
He ran for more than ten minutes until the woman's voice was completely lost.
The surrounding woods gradually became brighter, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief. The hairy feeling in his heart gradually eased.
"Senior brother..." He seemed to hear his junior sister An Ying's shout at this moment. He quickly ran over following the sound.
*******************
In the dark forest.
The woman in white was kneeling on the ground, still crying, as if she wanted to cry forever.
I don't know how long it took, but the woman's crying stopped.
vomit...
A painful sound of vomiting came from her body, and the woman suddenly vomited out a large number of flesh-colored twisted maggots from her mouth while covering her face.
The maggots were like a fountain, forming a stream of flesh-colored worms. They fell to the ground and were still struggling and twisting, spreading and crawling along the ground in all directions.
****************
"Senior brother..."
When Lin Xin found An Ying, she was lying on the branch of a big tree. She was covered in blood and looked seriously injured.
"Damn it!" Lin Xin cursed fiercely, hating his own powerlessness and ran over quickly.
"That long-eared tiger... didn't run far..." Just as he ran over, he heard An Ying urging weakly. "Brother, go quickly... follow the blood trail and chase... it...
I was drugged..."
Lin Xin looked at An Ying who was covered in blood on the branch of a tree. This guy was so injured that he still remembered his long-eared tiger. Seeing the somewhat ferocious wound on An Ying's neck, which was still slowly oozing blood, he
I don't know why, but there is an indescribable smell in my heart.
"Treat the wound first!" He yelled, interrupting An Ying. "What's the point of the long-eared tiger when the human body is almost gone!?"
"But..." An Ying was so weak that her lips turned white. "We have been preparing for so long..."
Lin Xin gritted his teeth, quickly climbed up the tree, and bandaged the wound on An Ying's neck. He first made some homemade bandages and gauze at the bottom of the mountain, and also distilled some high-concentration liquor to use as alcohol.
Fortunately, it seemed to be the effect of internal strength. There was no major bleeding from any of the wounds on An Ying's body. It seemed that the muscles contracted automatically and stopped the bleeding. Otherwise, An Ying might have suffered excessive blood loss and went into shock. Then she would be really in trouble.
After treating the wound, Lin Xin got down from the tree. He heard from An Ying that although the long-eared tiger attacked them, it was stabbed in many places by An Yin with the sword that had spit out the medicine. Now he is staggering.
He ran somewhere, but he can still be traced along the blood trail.
Lin Xin was a little scared to chase the behemoth alone, but he thought that An Ying had paid such a high price for himself and was injured like that. In addition, the long-eared tiger should have taken effect from the medicine, so he might not be able to resist.
Lin Xin finally gritted his teeth and chased out following the blood stains on the ground.
After following the blood trail for more than ten minutes, he could faintly smell the strong smell of blood in front of him.
Soon he saw the fallen long-eared tiger, with blood flowing all over the ground. It was lying on the ground weakly, breathing heavily from its nostrils, like a horse.
He cautiously approached and hit the long-eared tiger with a broken stone and sword a few times to confirm that it had fallen asleep. Lin Xin then took out a thick rope and quickly tied it up several times.
A single strand of this rope is as thick as a wrist, and it was specially made by him. After it was tied to the long-eared tiger, it couldn't move, but Lin Xin began to worry about how to get this thing away.
There was so much blood, and the sounds of other beasts could be heard vaguely around. As time went on, more beasts might be attracted.
Since no other beast has come for so long, it is probably this long-eared tiger that has designated the surrounding area as its own territory, otherwise it would have attracted predators such as wolves.
Lin Xin now understood the difficulty of the Guiyuan Pill. Even An Ying, who had internal energy, had to be so injured that she could barely subdue a long-eared tiger, let alone an ordinary person.
"It's really not possible..." Lin Xin's eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness for the first time, "If you want to get it, how can you do it without taking risks!"
This long-eared tiger weighs a full ton and cannot be dragged at all. Once the effects of the drug wear off, it is impossible to drag it back to the gym even with a rope.
As for going back down the mountain to find help, let alone that by the time someone comes down the mountain, this guy will probably have only bones left. The predators around him are not vegetarians.
