Volume 1 Chapter 315 The Gap is Too Big

Ge Hong, who was not far away, saw Wang Shu's miserable appearance without even untying the ropes on his body, and suddenly became excited. He waved to the escorting soldiers to signal them that they did a good job.

"Hahaha, let's see how you can survive, General!" Ge Hong murmured excitedly, and then drank another glass of liquor.

When Ge Hong was preparing for the battle during the day, he had stopped feeding the saber-toothed tiger. Now the saber-toothed tiger was in a very hungry state, and its huge stomach urgently needed a large amount of flesh and blood to replenish it.

So when Wang Shu fell down, the saber-toothed tiger a hundred meters away ran towards Wang Shu with murderous eyes.

It was only a distance of a hundred meters, which was a matter of seconds for the saber-toothed tiger to run over. The closer it was to Wang Shu, the more its stomach reacted. Its desire for food caused it to drool from its bloody mouth.

Seeing the saber-toothed tiger getting closer, Wang Shu hurriedly retreated and soon retreated to the earth and stone wall. With nowhere to retreat, Wang Shu hurriedly circulated the source energy in his body and began to twist and struggle, trying to break free from the ropes that bound him.

But it was not that easy. These ropes were specially made, specifically for tying up monks like him. Even if Ge Hong himself was tied up, it would be difficult for him to break free.

Soon Wang Shu stopped struggling and froze in place, because the saber-toothed tiger was less than three meters away from him. It also stopped, slightly bent its body, and crawled, but the ferocious light in its eyes did not diminish, but became even more fierce.

After a long time, the saber-toothed tiger did not launch an attack, but Wang Shu always felt that it would open its bloody mouth and pounce on him to bite off his neck in the next second.

With fear in his heart, Wang Shu could not help but use the energy in his throat, and then roared: "Get out!"

The sound was deafening. The shout stunned the surrounding black-armored soldiers for a moment, and the saber-toothed tiger was frightened and took two steps back.

But before Wang Shu could be too happy, the saber-toothed tiger felt as if it was humiliated, and pounced on him with its mouth open without any hesitation!

Wang Shu was horrified and quickly rolled forward, then stood up and ran away!

He could clearly feel the power of the saber-toothed tiger. He might not be able to deal with it even in his prime, let alone now that his hands were tied and his body was covered with wounds.

The saber-toothed tiger's attack failed, but when it saw Wang Shu fleeing in such a panic, the last bit of fear in its heart disappeared, and it roared and chased after Wang Shu quickly.

A crazy chase unfolded in the earth pit. It has to be said that the human body is more flexible than that of animals. Wang Shu jumped left and right on the field. Although he could not match the saber-toothed tiger in straight-line speed, he had flexible feet and always turned sharply and ran in circles at critical moments.

In this way, the saber-toothed tiger could not catch up with him at all. After a long time, the saber-toothed tiger actually showed signs of fatigue. Wang Shu's condition was not much better, and he was also out of breath.

This exciting chase battle made the surrounding black-armored soldiers extremely excited. There was nothing more exciting than watching a tiger chasing a person. After all, this was a rare pleasure in the boring army.

Soon the saber-toothed tiger launched another attack, and Wang Shu had no choice but to keep running. Although his hands were tied, the source energy in his body was still there. With the blessing of his cultivation, he had a speed beyond ordinary people, and it was no problem for him to shake off the saber-toothed tiger. But he couldn't continue like this. People would eventually run out of strength, and sooner or later he would be caught up by the saber-toothed tiger, and death was only a matter of time.

At this moment, a soldier of the black-armored army hurried to Ge Hong's side and whispered in his ear. The next moment, Ge Hong, who was laughing, turned ugly and cursed angrily: "Damn it, how did the Marshal know about this!"

The cheers all around suddenly intensified. Ge Hong looked over quickly and saw that Wang Shu suddenly ran out of strength while flying to dodge and crashed into a boulder. His speed suddenly slowed down. The next moment, the saber-toothed tiger launched an attack and pounced on him, covering Wang Shu with its huge body.

The bloody mouth bit down, and Wang Shu quickly dodged sideways. The tiger's mouth almost brushed his head. Wang Shu was so scared that he quickly raised his feet and kicked towards the saber-toothed tiger's belly.

Powerful source energy burst out, and the saber-toothed tiger groaned and was kicked four or five meters away, but it stabilized its body as soon as it landed and continued to rush towards Wang Shu.

At this time, Wang Shu had not yet reacted. He had just stood up and had no time to dodge.

Seeing that he was about to be bitten by the saber-toothed tiger, Ge Hong actually jumped down the pit and stood in front of Wang Shu, then roared at the saber-toothed tiger. Immediately, the saber-toothed tiger with a ferocious look retreated repeatedly, not daring to approach Ge Hong again, with fear on its face.

This saber-toothed tiger was captured alive by Ge Hong alone. It was badly beaten at that time. Now it has no courage to face Ge Hong again. It just stays aside obediently and dares not make any excessive moves.

The strong are respected, this is an iron rule whether it is for humans or animals!

Then Ge Hong turned around and said with a dark face: "You are lucky to have saved your life for free. If you fall into my hands again next time, I will never let you have a chance to survive!"

Wang Shu also looked at Ge Hong coldly. He was in very weak physical condition at this moment, but he was full of resentment in his heart, but he did not say anything harsh.

Because he still didn't know whether he could survive, whether Shen Qingqiu could survive, and harsh words had no other use except to make himself look stupid.

Ge Hong grabbed Wang Shu's shoulders and jumped onto the mound. He then waved his hand and ordered, "Take him down to wash and settle him down!"

That night, the ropes on Wang Shu were untied, and he moved into the large military tent, where he was served with fine wine and delicious food. Shen Qingqiu, who was lying on the bed in the tent, was fed a few doses of medicine by the military doctor, and then his breathing gradually became calmer, and his face slowly regained its rosy color as he lay on the bed.

Feeling that Shen Qingqiu's physical condition was constantly recovering, Wang Shu finally felt relieved, but he was extremely confused. He was a prisoner with his life in danger in the last second, and the next moment he became a guest of honor. The gap was too big.

What made Wang Shu feel anxious was that he didn't know the reason.

Before he knew it, Wang Shu had fallen asleep leaning against the head of the bed. When the day dawned, Shen Qingqiu slowly opened his eyes on the bed. Although he was still very weak, his high fever had subsided and he was no longer in danger of death.

"Where am I? Have I returned to Dayun Empire?" Shen Qingqiu looked around in confusion. When he saw Wang Shu beside him, he was startled and stood up quickly. However, this small action woke up Wang Shu. He looked up and saw Shen Qingqiu. The next moment, his face showed joy and he asked, "You are awake. How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

"Thank you Prime Minister for your concern. Qingqiu is fine now!" Shen Qingqiu had just finished speaking, and before he could ask more questions, he saw Ge Hong and his soldiers walking in. Wang Shu quickly stood up and stared at him, while Ge Hong said unhappily: "Go immediately and take you to see our army marshal!"
