Chapter 149 The Missing Student

Lin Qi left Aunt Minghua at Doctor Ma's house and then went to inform the team leader.

"Bitten by wolves?" The captain looked anxious. "Didn't they go into the mountains? How could there be wolves?"

Even though the mountains have been relatively safe in recent years, because everyone still remembers what happened to Luo Da and others when they encountered a pack of wolves, people will not easily enter the mountains, especially women and children.

"Please go ask Aunt Minghua." Lin Qi said and wanted to leave.

"Where are you going?" the captain called her.

"Let's go to the mountain. I wonder if there are other wolves in the mountain. I'll go check it out." Lin Qi said. Xu Hexiao went to the mountain with Lao Bi and Lao Fu. If there were other wolves in the mountain, their situation would be dangerous. Besides the two of them, there should be other people in the mountain.

The captain heaved a sigh of relief after hearing her words, "I'm glad you're willing to go to the mountains to have a look, go quickly."

That was why he called her.

Lin Qi went home first and asked Xu Hexiao about the approximate location of Lao Bi and Lao Fu.

"I'll go with you." Xu Hexiao said.

Lin Qi raised her eyebrows, "Can you walk?"

"I've recovered, but I can't catch up with your speed, so you have to lead me." Xu Hexiao said with a smile.

Lao Bi and Lao Fu looked at the two sacks of chestnuts, then at the two dead wolves, then looked up at the sky which was about to darken, and the two looked at each other in silence.

"Give up the chestnuts or the wolf corpse?" asked Old Fu.

Lao Bi rolled his eyes. "As if by giving up one of them you can take the other back."

Old Fu choked and said unwillingly, "What should we do now?"

"Either we wait here, or we go back first and let Xu Hexiao take the things back." Lao Bi said.

The two old people were chatting here, and not far away, several aunts kept looking at them.

Finally, an aunt boldly asked, "Are you going to leave the mountain?"

Lao Bi and Lao Fu shut their mouths, looked at the aunts, nodded and said, "Yes."

"Then let's go together?" suggested my aunt.

They were worried that there might be wolves on the road, so having two more people would give them more courage and provide an extra layer of protection.

Lao Bi and Lao Fu looked at each other and said, "Okay."

Several aunts walked in front, while Lao Bi and Lao Fu walked behind.

"You picked so many chestnuts today!" Aunt looked at their two full baskets of chestnuts with some envy in her eyes.

"Xu Hexiao took us there. He knows where the chestnuts are." Old Fu directly threw the question to Xu Hexiao.

The auntie didn't give up. "Did you come across many chestnut trees? Are they far from here?"

"It took us about two hours to get there. There were quite a few chestnut trees there." Old Fu was very honest.

Anyway, the mountain is so big, and if the chestnuts in that place are gone, Xu Hexiao can take them to other places to look for them.

Lao Bi and Lao Fu have an inexplicable confidence in Xu Hexiao.

The aunts exchanged glances with each other, wanting to ask if they should go together, but considering their status, they didn't say it out loud.

After they walked about a hundred meters, Lin Qi and Xu Hexiao appeared.

"Lin Qi!"

When they saw Lin Qi, the aunts were delighted as if they had seen a relative.

"Hello, aunties. I heard that you met a wolf. Were you hurt?" Lin Qi asked in a steady voice that inexplicably had the power to calm people's hearts.

"Yes, we encountered two wolves. We were picking wild vegetables, and then two wolves rushed out. Minghua was closest to them and was bitten. We ran faster and had sickles in our hands, so the wolves didn't dare to come forward."

"Minghua was bitten so badly that his flesh was almost torn off. We were all scared at the time and thought our day was over. But Xu Hexiao suddenly appeared out of nowhere and killed two wolves in just a few moves."

"Oh, Xu Hexiao is so awesome. I'm so grateful to him for today."

The aunts praised Xu Hexiao and secretly looked at his expression. Seeing that his face was calm, they felt that Xu Hexiao was calm and steady.

No wonder Lin Qi likes him, he must have something extraordinary!

Xu Hexiao was carrying two sacks of chestnuts, while Lin Qi was holding a wolf in one hand. She said to Xu Hexiao, "I will send the wolf's body to the foot of the mountain first, and then I will go into the mountain again to see if there are other wolves. You go back with everyone else."

Xu Hexiao nodded, "Okay."

As he finished his words, Lin Qi's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot. When she reappeared, she was already a hundred meters away.

“Although I know Lin Qi is powerful, every time she displays her kung fu, I am still shocked.”

"Who says it's not true? I'm shocked every time I see her. Before I met her, I never believed that there were any masters in this world."

"With Lin Qi checking the mountain, we can go into the mountain with confidence tomorrow."

"I don't know if we were the only ones who encountered the wolf, or if others also encountered it."

"I hope no one gets hurt."

Lin Qi threw the wolf's corpse at the foot of the mountain, a place that must be passed to get out of the mountain, and then turned back into the mountain.

On the other side, the team leader asked Aunt Minghua about the whole process of their encounter with the wolves. Then he rang the gong, gathered everyone together, told them that there were wolves in the mountains, and asked the team members if there were any family members who had gone into the mountains and had not returned.

Upon asking this question, it turned out that there were still some team members who had not left the mountain.

"Don't worry, go home and get some tools, then go into the mountains to look for people." The captain said, and explained, "Lin Qi has already gone to the mountains, don't panic."

Upon hearing that Lin Qi had already entered the mountain, everyone felt relieved. They hurried home to get their things and headed towards the foot of the mountain.

As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, they met Xu Hexiao and his group, and saw the two wolves that were killed by Xu Hexiao.

Now, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Xu Hexiao. After Lin Qi, he was another person who could fight two or more wild wolves alone!

At the same time, Lin Qi met a few people who came into the mountains. Seeing Lin Qi, these people were also surprised, "Lin Qi, why did you come to the mountains?"

And with empty hands.

"Lin Qi, I found some wild fruits and mushrooms. I'll give you some when I get out."

"I also have wild fruits, mushrooms, and fungus here. I'll share some with you when the time comes."

"No need." Lin Qi refused. "Aunt Minghua and her friends encountered a wolf in the mountains today. Aunt Minghua was bitten by a wolf. I am going into the mountains to check if there are other wolves and to notify you to leave the mountains quickly."

"There's a wolf!"

"Is Minghua seriously injured?"

"Where did you meet the wolf?"

"We didn't encounter any wild animals in this area today, not even a chicken."

“........”

Lin Qi answered their questions and urged them to get out of the mountain quickly, "This is the direction I came from, you should go out from this side."

Everyone agreed and reminded Lin Qi, "You should also be more careful."

Lin Qi agreed and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.

Next, Lin Qi met several more groups of people and persuaded them to leave the mountain.

Later, she met fewer and fewer people, and it was completely dark. Lin Qi didn't know if there were still people in the mountains, and worried that she might have missed someone, so she went deeper into the mountains.

Several groups of people coming out of the mountain happened to meet the people going into the mountain.

"call--"

"Okay, everyone who didn't come back is here. Fortunately, no one was injured."

"Where's Lin Qi? She hasn't come out yet."

"I guess they're still looking for someone."

"So what should we do now? Go in and find Lin Qi?"

"Go ahead. Divide into three teams. Hold torches and flashlights and shout as you search. Lin Qi has sharp ears and eyes. As long as we make a lot of noise, she will find us quickly."

"In order to avoid endless searching, we have to agree on a time. Let's do this: search for an hour, and after an hour, regardless of whether we can find her or not, everyone will leave the mountain on their own. If we still haven't seen Lin Qi after leaving the mountain, we will go back in to look for her."

"OK!"

Going towards the deep mountains, Lin Qi found another lone wolf.

Lin Qi killed the wolf in two or three seconds. When she got close to the wolf's body, she found other wounds on the wolf's body, which seemed to be knife wounds and other bite wounds. There were also many thorns and leaves on the wolf's body. It was not difficult to judge that the wolf must have experienced an escape.

Is it the law of the jungle among beasts, or is it an encounter with humans?

Lin Qi dragged the wolf corpse forward. She moved very fast and crossed two mountains in less than ten minutes. Standing at the eye of the wind on the top of the mountain, she heard the sounds of humans and beasts.

Someone!

Lin Qi ran towards the source of the sound without any hesitation.

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing a bright moon as big as a disk, completely illuminating the entire mountain forest.

Yu Yang, who had been running for a day, was exhausted. His hands holding the machete could not stop shaking. He looked at his classmates. When they fled here together, there were 22 people in their team, but now there were only 12 left.

If they hadn't been holding knives, there would have been no one left.

Now, jackals, tigers and leopards were all around them, and they had become a feast for these wild beasts.

They should not have ignored the advice and insisted on going deep into the forest. Now it was useless to say anything. If they wanted to stay alive, they had to keep swinging their knives. Even if they died, they would kill a few more wolves to serve as scapegoats.

roar--

The beast roared, as if signaling an attack.

The next second, the wild beasts all pounced towards Yu Yang and others, and Yu Yang and others also waved their knives and rushed forward with determination.

A fishy smell hit my nose.

The sound of sharp teeth tearing flesh, and blood splattered on the face.

Yu Yang and others knew that this time, they had no way to escape.

But they don’t want to die—

Just when Yu Yang and others were completely desperate, the sound of a whip suddenly came from the air, and then they saw a dozen wild beasts surrounding them being blown away.

Next, there was the sound of whips breaking through the air. In a moment, blood marks appeared on the bodies of the beasts. Under the bright moonlight, they could clearly see how deep the whip wounds were, revealing the deep white bones.

The Beast King, who was so majestic a second ago, was now beaten by the whip and had no power to fight back, and could only run around.

The whip was more brutal with each lash than the last, and it actually broke the bones of some wild animals.

Yu Yang and others stared at this scene in amazement.

The one-sided and brutal battle lasted less than ten minutes. The bodies of seven or eight wolves were lying on the ground, and the other beasts scattered and fled into the forest, disappearing without a trace.
