Just when I felt like I was suffocating, I suddenly woke up.
It turned out to be just a dream.
When I opened my eyes, I found myself lying under a tree. It was almost dark.
The first thing that appeared in front of me was a twisted human head, which scared me so much that it affected the old injuries on my body. "Ah!" I couldn't help but let out a scream.
Hearing the sound, the human-headed spiders and centaurs nearby came closer.
Little Bai Mao asked eagerly, "Master Yuanchu, are you feeling better?"
I was hit hard by a guard before, and I felt a huge pain in my chest. It seemed that my ribs were broken. Now I seem to have no pain as before. Herbal medicine has been applied to the wounds on my calves and forearms, and there is a trace of warmth in the wounds.
"We went around to find herbs, crushed them and applied them to your wound. I hope you will get better soon," the man next to him continued.
It turned out that after the priest activated the earthquake spell, the female archers retreated in a hurry, and three guards followed closely behind. The men and horses leaped forward with difficulty on the shaking ground. Seeing the guard behind them getting closer and closer, the shaking of the ground gradually stopped. The men and horses took this opportunity, ran very fast with their four hooves, and immediately dropped the guard behind him. Far.
The guards understood that the stop of the spell meant that the priest might be in danger, and they signaled to each other to rush back for help.
The men and horses were happy to get rid of these guards, but Little White Hair became worried. The sudden return of these guards could only be detrimental to me.
After she and the other men and horses found out their interests, they shot back. With the strength of their four hooves, they caught up with the returning guards and shot them all dead. However, during the fierce fight, a brave female shooter also He was stabbed to death by a guard's spear.
On the way back along the road, I heard a noise and rushed here. At the critical moment of life and death, he saved me with his precise arrow skills.
"If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have died here." Recalling that I was on the verge of life and death many times today, I can't help but feel lucky that I can still lie here and catch my breath.
Gurgling~~~~ My unsatisfactory stomach started to growl at this time, which made me feel embarrassed.
Little Baimao held some fresh grass in his hand and handed it to me and said, "Master Yuanchu, this handful of fresh grass was just picked. You can eat it with confidence."
At this time, a voice came from the ear, "Master, we caught fish for you in the creek."
The human-headed spiders led by Yoyo have gone through life and death for me. From the very beginning of the shelter to the present world, from many followers to only a handful now, I can’t help but feel a little guilty.
"You have helped a lot today. You must be hungry too. Let's keep the fish for you to eat."
"Master, we have already eaten," Liuyou said awkwardly, "Those people in red clothes just ate while we were cleaning the battlefield."
emmmmm...
No more refusal, Chi You's mission has not been completed yet, I need to replenish my strength as soon as possible to cope with the next thing.
While eating fresh grass, I directed Liu Liu to drill the wood to make a fire. The men and horses looked at the rising pile of flames, their eyes flashing with excitement and curiosity, but they didn't seem to be interested in meat, so they went to the edge of the dense forest to guard.
The flames rolled over the two large cooked fishes, the firewood crackled and crackled, and the aroma of meat wafted into my nose.
"Master, according to your instructions, after the man who was captured on the cliff was put back, the altar immediately responded and sent several people to investigate the dense forest on the cliff." Liu Liu reported from the side.
"That's good. Now things are still within my plan. There are only about ten people in the altar. Now they have to guard against the suspicion array we have set up on the cliff, and also use manpower to patrol and reconnoiter around. We are here tonight The side is safe for the time being." I ate the white fish, which was a little hard to swallow, so I mixed it with a bite of fish and a bite of fresh grass, and barely finished the two fish.
"We need to have a good rest tonight. Tomorrow's action is the key to our trip." I asked Liuyou to find a place to rest. I also called Little White Hair and asked the horses to pick up some dry firewood and add it to the fire. Rest near this fire.
I checked various wounds on my body. Under the influence of herbal medicine, the pain in my ribs has been greatly relieved. However, it is still inconvenient to move. My calf was stabbed by the last branch. Fortunately, the wound was not deep. The injury on my arm seemed to be no longer felt. It hurts. After all, it was me who made the cut, so how could I be cruel?
The sky gradually turned completely dark, and a little moonlight could be seen through the gaps between the leaves. Occasionally there was a crackling sound from the fire that was set up, and I gradually fell asleep with exhaustion all over my body.
I don't know how long I slept, but I opened my eyes in a daze and found that it was still dark, and there was only some residual warmth from the fire last night.
After last night's feast of fresh grass and fish and this night's rest, I have recovered a lot of strength and energy. What is needed most now is healing.
I began to concentrate all my energy and use the Holy Treatment of Hope to repair the wounds on my body, starting with the most serious injuries of broken bones.
My hand caressed the broken bone, and I felt an energy in my body that was resetting the broken bones, and the internal wounds were slowly healing.
After a period of repair, the injuries on my chest and ribs had healed. After spending some time on this, I gritted my teeth and continued to heal the puncture wounds on my legs and scratches on my arms. There were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
After the healing was completed, I felt extremely comfortable all over, so I stood up and moved my limbs. In order to avoid waking up the people, I took advantage of the moonlight to tiptoe to the creek, took off my robe, walked into the creek and took a quick bath. Even though there was no shampoo or shower gel, but in this world , such cleaning can be considered a luxury.
After I came back, I huddled next to the still-warm fire and fell asleep again while the night was dark.
When I woke up again, I opened my eyes and Liuliu and the other two human-headed spiders were all ready to go. I called Little Baimao over, "We will continue to rest during the day today, and we will not act until after dark at night, so everyone Don’t be so nervous.”
Everyone expressed confusion.
I explained, "Yesterday we killed the guards and priests who were chasing us. The guard we put back last night made the remaining people at the altar panic. They were already in disarray."
I turned to Xiao Baimao again, "The place we are going to this time is an altar, which was the base camp of those people yesterday. Although there are only about ten people left inside, it is impossible for the few of us to storm in now. I The plan is this..."
I described in detail tonight's operational arrangements after dark, and told them to take a good rest during the day and replenish their physical strength.
At noon, the people and horses found fresh grass and berries from nowhere. I had a delicious meal of grilled fish with fresh grass, while Liu Liu went out to forage.
In the evening, we got ready and slowly approached the patrol area of the altar. To be on the safe side, I used my spirit body to scout forward, and I didn't find any patrolling guards along the way.
Could it be that they all stay behind closed doors? ?
Just as he was wondering, a sneaky red-robed guard appeared in front of him. After groping under a few big trees for a long time, he got up and went back. I didn't get rid of the lone guard so as not to alert the enemy.
I cautiously approached the tree just now and discovered the clue. It turns out that these trees are connected by thin lines that are difficult to detect with the naked eye, and it is impossible to tell what materials they are made of. However, I believe that once we come into contact, our whereabouts will be exposed.
As soon as my mind moved, my consciousness returned to my body, and I was thinking about how to avoid these hidden little mechanisms. At this time, the sky suddenly changed suddenly, and dark clouds began to gather, mixed with a little muffled thunder.
God helps me! !
I got Yoyo and the centaurs together and slightly improved the plan for tonight.
The human-headed spiders use their keen observation skills to find out the warning mechanisms in several directions, together with a centaur female shooter and a spider. Our manpower is limited, and I can only watch four mechanisms by myself.
When the time comes, I will trigger the mechanism and let them come out to guard. Later, the spiders triggered the mechanisms one after another, and the mechanisms in different directions were triggered, making the people at the altar think that they were surrounded from all sides.
On a night of thunderstorms and dangers, fear is the biggest enemy.
After giving the instructions, I took Little Baimao and gave him other instructions. We quietly waited for darkness and the arrival of rain.
We quietly waited for the night to fall. There was no moonlight tonight, and darkness was our best cover. The dull thunder gradually turned into thunderbolts and thunder exploded overhead, and heavy raindrops also arrived as promised.
After I used my spirit body to convey my voice to Liu Liu, I tripped over the thin wire of the mechanism. After transferring my body to a nearby tree that seemed relatively safe, I entered the spirit state and waited for their arrival on the tree that was the only way for them to come out.
As I expected, three figures appeared soon after. Even in the heavy rain, I could still distinguish a priest and two guards holding spears. They went to check the warning mechanism and searched nearby. Under the heavy rain, they found no clues, so they came up with the idea of retreating.
The three people began to walk back. As the priest walked, he looked back and searched around. In this thunderstorm weather, it is difficult to see people 10 meters away, let alone me who is invisible.
Now the arrow is on the string and I have to fire it. If I don't attract attention first, other combinations of spiders and centaurs may be difficult to resist. After the thought flashed through, the spirit began to recite the incantation and the spell was activated.
The ground around the three men began to crack into deep pits, cracking rapidly. The three of them did not expect that there would be a sneak attack. Coupled with the rain and slippery conditions, they all fell into a deep pit. The reaction of the two guards was astonishing. They inserted their spears into the cracked ground and did not fall. However, the priest who only had a magic weapon in his hand was not so lucky and fell straight down.
I continued to activate the spell, trying to trap all three of them here. Unexpectedly, the two guards burst out with astonishing strength and climbed out before the crack closed with the help of their spears.
Under the cover of the rain and thunder, they still didn't notice my figure.
