Chapter 14: Returning in the Snow
"what?!"
Zhao Xiaoxiao and Zhou Qingshan's faces suddenly changed when they heard this, and they said in surprise.
"Hurry, take me there!"
Zhou Qingshan pulled Zhou Shiqi and walked out without any explanation.
Zhao Xiaoxiao, pale and uneasy, followed closely behind in a panic.
Zhou Qingshan and Zhou Shiqi stepped into the house.
A strong smell of blood hit me. Doctor Mo was concentrating on first aid, looking nervous.
There were several other farmers with broken legs in the house who were groaning in pain. Sanzi and Da Meng had some blood on their bodies. They stood dejectedly in the corner, silent and looking gloomy.
Zhou Qingshan's eyes fell on Zhao Gang lying on the bed.
Zhao Gang's right shoulder was gone, and his body was wrapped in white cloth strips, with blood constantly oozing out, which looked horrifying.
"Dad! Woo woo" Zhao Xiaoxiao then entered the house and looked at Zhao Gang who was missing an arm. Her body was shaking and she was crying.
He quickly trotted to the bedside, but didn't dare reach out to touch it.
Zhao Gang nodded to Xiao Xiao, looked at Zhou Qingshan, clenched his teeth, and his voice was hoarse due to pain:
"Young man, cough cough, be careful. That beast is coming for me. Huhu, it should be planning to trade injuries for injuries, at most... cough cough"
Before he finished speaking, as if his injury had been aggravated, he started coughing violently again, even coughing up blood.
"Uncle Zhao, take a rest first and don't talk."
Zhou Qingshan quickly stopped Zhao Gang from talking, and turned to look at Sanzi and Xie Meng, and asked solemnly: "What exactly happened?"
The third son raised his head and said in a deep voice:
"The beast didn't make any movement the whole night yesterday, and it snowed hard this morning. We were just about to go back to rest when it quietly climbed in from the wall inside the Spirit Realm Gate. It took advantage of the snow and storm to launch a sudden attack and headed straight for Master Zhao. We were caught off guard."
At this time, Xie Meng also raised his head and continued, "That beast attacked Master Zhao and tore off one of his arms, but he didn't want to fight anymore. He took a few of our shots and escaped from the spiritual realm. We are helpless!"
Zhou Qingshan's face turned pale: "What are more than a dozen people doing for a living?!"
The third son, Xie Meng, immediately lowered his head and did not dare to respond.
The scene was chaotic at the time, and only the three of them came to their senses and dared to fight. As for the farmers who were recruited, they were so frightened when they saw the human-faced bear rushing towards them that they lost their way.
Zhou Shiqi pointed at the injured farmers and said, "Don't blame us. They were all scared away by the man-faced bear's momentum. Only I, Sanzi, and Da Meng dared to step forward and fight!"
The farmers who were pointed at by Zhou Shiqi immediately lowered their heads in shame and dared not cry out in pain.
Zhou Qingshan took a few deep breaths, knowing that he couldn't blame the guards. The farmers and their imposing manner could not scare them.
The 'human-faced bear' was gifted with ordinary supernatural powers, but its intelligence was much higher than that of ordinary beasts. It actually knew how to kill the person who posed the greatest threat when the person was least alert, and was even willing to risk its life.
Daring to gamble with one's own life, this behavior is totally unlike that of a wild beast!
It's really chilling!
At this time, Zhao Gang suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhou Qingshan's thigh, and said intermittently:
"That little beast of a man is not having a good time either. He must be fast in two days at most."
Before he could finish his words, he fainted.
Two days?
Zhou Qingshan's eyes fixed.
Even if martial arts are included in the Yizi panel today, can blood coagulation be achieved in one step?
Probably not!
How to do?
After losing Uncle Zhao and getting rid of external things, Zhou Qingshan found himself useless, weak, weak, too weak!!
Just a strange beast forced him to this point, that shows he has no strength!
The room was silent for a few moments, as if a pin drop could be detected. After a moment, Zhou Shiqi asked:
"My dear, what should we do?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room turned their eyes to Zhou Qingshan.
"Little Prince" "Little Prince"
Zhou Qingshan glanced around and saw expectant glints in everyone's eyes.
tired.
So tired.
A feeling of powerlessness swept over my whole body, as if a huge stone was suddenly pressing on my chest, making it hard to breathe.
The tragic situation of the seven members of the Li family yesterday is still vivid in my mind.
Yes, when facing the human-faced bear, he can hide in the Yunding chessboard world, but what about others?
Xiaoxiao, Uncle Zhao, seventeen, has a younger sister at home. And these guards who have followed him since childhood.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
Zhou Qingshan closed his eyes and clenched his fists. This place had already been his home, but he couldn't leave it behind.
He made up his mind and suddenly opened his eyes:
"Seventeen, Sanzi, and Da Meng, who among you is most confident of breaking through to blood coagulation?!"
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Wilderness fog.
In the windy and snowy environment, three figures were moving firmly towards Shengfengling.
They wore conical hats, cotton-padded jackets, and leather armor. The three of them had a hemp rope tied around their waists to prevent them from getting separated.
The leader held a spear and cleared the snow to clear a path, while the two behind him held long swords, shielding themselves from the wind and snow while keeping their ears alert at all times, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
The mountain road was rugged, steep and difficult to walk on. There was constant wind and snow, low visibility, and accumulation of snow. Even warriors could not go that fast.
The three trudged on in silence for some time.
At this time, one of the people in the middle looked at the tall figure walking in front with a gun and couldn't help but raise a question:
"Didn't we agree to set off after the snowstorm stops?"
It was too dangerous to travel in the fog and snow in the wilderness. Even the Yunhe Chamber of Commerce, which was powerful and had several inbound warriors, had to temporarily stop in a nearby rural spiritual realm.
The three of them are just warriors who have just condensed their source blood. It would be dangerous if they encounter alien beasts entering the country.
Although the alien beasts that entered from all directions of Black Cloud City had been specially cleared out, how could they be completely cleared out in the fog?
The tall figure at the front paused, then continued to move forward despite the wind and snow. Under the bamboo hat, a pair of eyes looked firmly into the distance and spoke slowly:
"I've been feeling uneasy these past few days. I always have a bad feeling."
The man at the back said in a muffled voice: "Could something have happened at home? But with ten guards at home and Master Zhao, as long as they don't leave the spiritual realm, they are more than enough to protect themselves."
The leader said calmly, "I don't know."
"Oh, I don't know where the young man you mentioned got such great charm that it's worth taking such a risk."
The man in the middle said unhappily:
"That rural spiritual realm cannot provide you with subsequent martial arts training resources. It is better for you to join the Yunhe Chamber of Commerce with me."
"Your fellow countryman was very sensible. He sold himself for a good price early on and decisively joined the Spirit Weapon Family. By then, he became an incoming warrior, and you were more talented than him, but you were stuck in blood coagulation for your entire life."
"By then, it will be too late for you to regret."
“Don’t mention him!!”
The leader interrupted the man with a cold voice and answered firmly: "We have been taught by the young master since we were young. The young master sponsored us to learn martial arts and subsidized the resources of the medicine in the past. We should not be ungrateful."
The man in the middle muttered, "How pretentious."
The leader stopped talking and said:
"We still have twenty miles to go. Now is not the time to chat. Save your energy."
