Chapter 169: The Big Tree Blocking the Road
Just like Murphy's Law, also known as the law of bad luck, the more you worry about something happening, the more likely it is to happen.

"According to my bad luck, this means that what I think will happen in the future is very likely." A bitter smile flashed across York's face.

Sure enough, not long after driving, at the end of the light shining on the car, we found a big tree stuck in the middle of the road.

What’s particularly disgusting is that this tree doesn’t look that big, giving people the illusion that it can be moved with the cooperation of several people.

But York would never be fooled. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that there were always deformed people lying in ambush nearby, waiting for him, the prey, to come out.

"Tree!"

Lillian spotted the big tree stuck in the road and said hesitantly, "Why is there a tree on the road?"

This is the correct way of thinking. How could a tree get stuck on the road? If we think about it in a further way, we will come to the conclusion that a tree will get stuck on the road only when someone does it intentionally.

Of course, only some idiots would not think of this, such as the protagonist of the movie in the previous life.

Yorks braked silently, grabbed the gear lever with his right hand and shifted it to reverse gear, then controlled the steering wheel and moved backwards, preparing to turn in the opposite direction.

The right thing to do now is not to follow the ideas and pace set by this group of experienced freaks.

York's reversing made everyone realize that something was wrong.

"Did someone do this on purpose?" Irina said in a deep voice.

"To trap us?"

York nodded and said calmly: "Let's go in another direction."

Under his control, the RV reversed and the front of the car made a circle and aimed at the original rear of the car.

Yorks remained expressionless as he continued to push the lever back to its original position and stomped the accelerator with his right foot.

At this moment, a gust of strong wind sounded in his ears, and Yorks seemed to sense something and looked towards the co-pilot seat where Irina was.

boom! ! ! ! !
An arrow hit the car window where Irina was directly and went through it fiercely. However, because the car window was a special window, it only broke a little, and the arrow made a sound before falling down.

From this we can see the deformed man's accuracy and his powerful bow force.

This sudden situation also confused Irina and everyone present.

Caroline screamed subconsciously out of fear, looked at York nervously and said:

"They're coming!"

Yorks did not answer her. He just reached out his hand with an expressionless face and pressed down the confused Irina, burying her upper body underneath and away from the car window.

There was another bang, and the second arrow came, but it only caused a slight scratch on the special window, and then it fell down.

"Nothing will happen as long as I'm here." Yorks looked at Irina, who was breathing rapidly, and soothed her with a smile.

"We're leaving now."

He knew how Irina felt. After all, the two arrows were shot at her. If it was an ordinary car window, her head would have been pierced by the arrow by now.

However, as York expected, there was a puff sound, and York looked at the instrument in front of him. The right tire was pierced by an arrow and was leaking air.

"Sure enough, the material of the tire is still difficult to withstand the penetration of bows and arrows." York sighed, without any extra emotional fluctuations.

Although the car could continue driving for another 30 kilometers after the tire was deflated, York slowly let go of the accelerator.

Perhaps sensing the slow speed of the car, Lillian held her helmet and said nervously, "Yorks!"

York turned around and saw the people behind him looking at him nervously. "The tire was indeed shot by them, but it can still be driven for 30 kilometers. I just wanted to test them." York smiled and comforted.

Even in this situation, York's voice and expression were very stable and calm, which gave Lillian and the others a strong sense of security and made them feel relieved without realizing it.

"What do you want to do?" asked Full.

"Pretend that the car can't move, lure them down, and turn the situation from one where the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light to one where I am in the dark and the enemy is in the light." Yorks slowly released the accelerator and controlled the speed so that the car was restricted by the flat tire.

Ful frowned. He didn't understand what York said. He could only sigh in his heart, nodded, and leave everything to his elder brother.

"Let me know if you need anything."

York smiled and said, "I told you not to worry about what's happening outside. You just need to protect the people in the car."

Fule pursed his lips, grasped the gun handle at his waist and nodded seriously.

"Give me the shotgun and go to the back. The car body is more solid than the windows." York turned to look at Irina, who was lowering her upper body, and said gently.

Hearing this, Irina gritted her teeth, unbuckled her seat belt, handed the Beretta 1301 shotgun to York who held out his hand, lowered her upper body, got out of the passenger seat and moved to the back, squatting with Ful and the others to avoid the range of the car window.

She knew what she should do, which was not to cause any trouble to York.

All you can do is be obedient!
York nodded with satisfaction, let go of the steering wheel, began to check the Beretta 1301 shotgun, and let the car slide forward.

boom!
At this moment, there was another sudden bang!
An arrow hit the passenger window again, causing even bigger scratches on the window before falling off.

"It seems like they are all gathered on the right side." York thought calmly, he let go of the accelerator, looked towards the forest on the left, and stretched out his hand behind him.

"Give me the helmet!"

Lillian handed it over quickly.

Yorks put it on, rolled down the window and lowered the lens tube, looking carefully to the left.

The darkness instantly dissipated through the night vision goggles.

With the window pulled down to a dozen centimeters, York felt relieved. His body did not show any reaction mechanism to being spied on or targeted.

At the same time, he did not find any signs of deformed people hiding on the left.

This means that all the deformed people are hiding on the right side.

"very good."

Yorks rolled up the car window again, and after the car lurched to a stop, he left a word, opened the door and got out in one go.

"Wait in the car."

The sound of the car door closing rang clearly in everyone's ears. York's figure had long disappeared. Irina closed her eyes and prayed silently for York.

"God, please bless York"

After getting off the car, Yorks did not relax his vigilance. Instead, he glanced at the woods in front of him. His whole body and mind were tense at this moment. Once his body showed the corresponding reaction mechanism, he would give the opponent a thundering blow.

Fortunately, even after getting off the car, his body did not show any reaction mechanisms, and no deformed people were seen.

There was another louder sound, and a strong wind was heard. York had already lay down and looked forward through the gap under the car, which was the direction of the right side of the car.
