Chapter 51: Collaborative Operations in Times of Crisis

Qi Xu looked at Xue Niang's fur standing up and became alert as he stood behind her.

It can make Xueniang feel danger and is definitely aggressive.

As the rustling sound in the low bushes stopped, a large wild boar squeezed out from the gap in the bushes.

The fat and strong one, with a fierce look in his eyes and bared fangs, started digging backwards as soon as he saw the snow girl's pig's trotters, ready to fight at any time.

Xue Niang howled angrily, stared at the wild boar's neck and began to charge forward.

Qi Xu, who was standing behind, looked around, trying to find any useful tools around while Xue Niang was attacking.

Luckily, she saw a medium-thick branch not far behind her on the right. She quickly walked over, picked up the branch, quickly removed the fork, turned around and went straight into battle.

When Jiang Hongyi was watering the vegetable garden with a kettle, he faintly heard wolves howling on the mountain. The sound that shouldn't have appeared in broad daylight made him suspect that something had happened to Qi Xu.

He threw down the kettle, went back to the house, took his usual saber and bayonet, put them on his waistband, opened the gate and quickly went up the mountain.

His reconnaissance ability was extraordinary. He could hear any abnormal movement on the mountain. He relied on his ears to determine the location throughout the entire climb.

Although Xue Niang has some fighting ability, the wild boar weighs twice as much as Xue Niang. Even if Xue Niang bites the wild boar's neck, she will be thrown several meters away in the next second.

This attack seemed to make the wild boar even more frantic. It changed the direction of attack and rushed towards Qi Xu.

When Qi Xu was about to attack with a branch in his hand, he noticed that a thin layer of black gas was spreading over the wild boar.

Her eyes suddenly turned fierce, it seemed that someone was behind this and wanted to use this wild boar to kill her.

Oh, I really underestimated her. Qi Xuke is not someone who can die so easily.

At this moment, she had no intention of fighting. Since the wild boar was under a death curse, it meant that if she did not dissolve the death curse for even one second, even if the wild boar was killed by her and Xue Niang, it would be driven by the death curse to attack her and Xue Niang.

When the wild boar was about to rush in front of her, Qi Xu moved seven or eight steps away quickly, leaving the wild boar alone.

The wild boar was furious when he saw that his attack had failed. He grunted and turned back to look for Qi Xu.

Qi Xu's mind was thinking rapidly at this moment, thinking about how to control the wild boar while performing the technique of removing filth.

Xue Niang stood up again, jumped over, bit the wild boar's hind legs, and tried her best to retreat to stop the wild boar from charging.

Qi Xu took advantage of this gap to quickly form seals with his hands and began to recite the incantation. However, before he finished reciting the incantation, the wild boar broke free from Xue Niang's control again and ran towards her again.

This time, Qi Xu used the distance of the long branches to attack the wild boar like fencing, preventing the wild boar from getting close to his body in a short period of time.

"Qi Xu! Move back!"

Jiang Hongyi suddenly emerged from the woods in front of her, holding a small saber in his right hand and making a retreat gesture with his left hand.

At this tense moment, Qi Xu followed Jiang Hongyi's instructions and ran backwards instantly with the branch in his hand.

"Jiang Hongyi, can you control it and keep it still for two minutes?"

She turned around and asked as she fled to a safe area.

“Let me try!”

Jiang Hongyi attacked from behind. In the wild boar's blind spot, he jumped up and kicked sideways, causing the wild boar to lose balance on its hind legs and fall to the ground with a "duang" sound.

He took advantage of the wild boar's inability to react and dislocated its hind leg joints, making it unable to exert force.

When the wild boar was struggling to get up, he elbowed it again, making the wild boar feel dizzy. Taking advantage of this brief gap, he used his strength to flip the wild boar over and dislocated its two front hooves.

The wild boar was extremely angry, and its head kept moving back and forth as it struggled to get up.

Qi Xu saw that the time was just right, and without caring whether he would be exposed or not, he began to make hand seals and chant in front of Jiang Hongyi. In an instant, golden light flashed on the wild boar and also on Jiang Hongyi's body.

After a while, the golden light gradually disappeared, and the wild boar fell into coma without the driving force of the deadly evil spirit.

Jiang Hongyi felt that his body was lighter than before and asked in confusion, "Qi Xu, what is this?"

Qi Xu realized it belatedly and closed his eyes with some regret, without explaining, "As you can see."

"It's dangerous to let this wild boar run wild in the mountains. I'll get rid of it first."

Jiang Hongyi didn't know why she didn't explain. The most important thing now was to get rid of the wild boar first.

He quickly cut the boar open with his saber and removed its head and limbs.

The jungle finally returned to silence. Jiang Hongyi wiped the blood off the knife and his hands and walked towards Qi Xu.

She had never seen him like this before, his body covered in blood, his steps firm, his eyes filled with only concern.

"I don't mean to question you. I just want to know what that golden light is for and why I suddenly feel lighter."

Qi Xu thought of many scenes after being exposed, but she never expected that Jiang Hongyi's expression towards her was not as incredible as she had imagined.

"That's the Cleansing Technique. Whether it's evil spirits, tortoise spirits, or resentful spirits, it can be completely removed."

"You... aren't surprised?"

Instead, she asked back in surprise.

"Last time at Xiaohao's house, I suspected it was you. That day I went to the market to look for you, and when I followed you back, I was sure that the Guiyuan Layman was you."

Jiang Hongyi patiently explained to her, "Are you hurt?"

"I'm not hurt, so why don't you ask me?"

"You certainly have your reasons for wanting to keep it a secret. I won't force you to tell me if you don't want to."

His calm reaction made Qi Xu feel that he was being overly cautious.

"Ahem...how do we move the wild boar down there?"

"That's right, Snow Girl!"

When she looked at the wild boar's corpse, she caught a glimpse of Xue Niang half-kneeling in her eyes, and hurried over to check if Xue Niang was injured.

Xue Niang hesitated twice to say that she was fine and had no minor injuries, and only then did she feel relieved.

"Let's go down the mountain first. I'll get the hemp rope and carry the wild boar down."

After Jiang Hongyi made the decision, he went down the mountain with Qi Xuxuenniang.

Qi Xu was worried that something might happen to him if he went up the mountain again, so he stuffed a peace amulet into his shirt pocket.

"be safe!"

Jiang Hongyi was relieved. He didn't ask her what the talisman paper was for. He just nodded, went to the kitchen to find a hemp rope, and went up the mountain again.

Qi Xu took a shower and changed his clothes, then helped Xue Niang check her injuries. He found that only some of the smooth hair on her legs and feet had been rubbed off, and no bones were injured. He hurried to cut some meat to feed her.

"Qi girl, what happened? Did you encounter danger when you went up the mountain?"

As soon as Qi Hong came out of the house, he saw Xue Niang's messy hair and instantly guessed her situation.
