"Help, help, something is running through my body!" Wei Ersao's voice was shrill, and she was shouting with all her might.
Her scream not only scared everyone, but also caused a lion not far away to roar.
"roar--"
The roar seemed to carry a sonic attack that instantly made everyone's hair stand on end.
Su Huaiyue heard the roar and knew that the lion was getting closer and closer.
The culprit, Wei Ersao, continued to scream regardless.
Su Huaiyue could barely see what was crawling on her body with the dim light of the candle.
Luckily it was just a scorpion.
After throwing the scorpion aside, Su Huaiyue grabbed Wei Ersao and warned her, "I told you not to make any sound. Do you know that your shout will only bring disaster to everyone?
I'm warning you, if you yell again I won't mind feeding you to the lions!"
There was a strong murderous intent in her eyes, as if she was going to throw Wei Ersao to the lion as food in the next second.
Wei Ersao, who was frightened by Su Huaiyue's aura, nodded woodenly and dared not say another word.
Wei Ersao, who was thrown back into the crowd, staggered and almost bumped into a boulder.
Although she couldn't see clearly, Wei Ersao clearly felt that the people around her had an aversion to her that was beyond words.
But at this moment they had no time to curse Wei Ersao. Out of human instinct, everyone clearly felt that the danger was getting closer and closer to them.
A thin woman asked timidly, "Should we hide somewhere else? We feel like we've been exposed."
Su Huaiyue frowned and did not reply. This kind of animal has keen hearing, so it is obvious that they cannot stay here for long.
Dust was being raised not far away, but it didn't look like it was blown by the wind at all.
Oh no, the desert lion is getting closer and closer to them.
Su Huaiyue calmly analyzed the countermeasures, and when she turned around, she saw a place to hide behind a mound of earth not far away.
She quickly squatted down and looked at everyone: "Everyone, stand up quietly and hide behind the pile of dirt over there. Remember not to make any noise, otherwise you will suffer the consequences!"
At this moment, the only person they could trust was Su Huaiyue. If she said to go east, they would not dare to go west.
The group evacuated to the back of the mound in an orderly manner.
In this situation, there must always be someone watching in front, so Su Huaiyue instinctively moved forward.
However, Wei Li and Wei Zhi held her hands tightly, looking at her with deep concern in their eyes.
Wei Li's voice was filled with tears: "Mom, let's hide here together. It's very dangerous ahead."
"If you go, you will die! My uncle asked me to keep an eye on you, you can't go." Wei Zhi's eyes were firm, but the worry in his eyes could not be concealed.
"I'm fine, don't worry!"
Wei Yunrou suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart. She suddenly grabbed Su Huaiyue's arm and said, "Sister-in-law, don't go ahead. It's dangerous!"
But Su Huaiyue acted as if she didn't hear anything and handed the two children to her.
"Yun Rou, keep an eye on Li'er and Zhi'er, don't let them run around!" After saying that, Su Huaiyue stood up and walked to the front and squatted down.
Judging from the roar of the desert lion, it can only come from this direction.
Su Huaiyue protected them behind him, his body tense, ready to deal with unknown risks at any time.
Wei Che behind him slowly moved his body, trying to protect them behind him.
"Su Huaiyue, go to the back and keep an eye on everyone. I'm here!" Wei Che said in a low voice, his tone unquestionable.
This made Su Huaiyue frown and look at him, not quite understanding his behavior.
The lion is swift and powerful. How can Wei Che's one leg defeat four legs?
Su Huaiyue sneered, don’t think that you can be invincible just because you are a man.
She said speechlessly, "Don't move. Just stay at the back and don't hold me back. That's the biggest help you can give me."
These words greatly hurt Wei Che's self-esteem. As a man, he should have stood up in such an emergency.
But the current facts told him that just staying still was the greatest help he could give her.
Wei Che gritted his teeth and retreated to the back in a sullen manner.
As time passed, the atmosphere became extremely solemn.
The lion walked towards them as if taking a leisurely stroll in the garden.
The lion had found the place where they had been hiding before. It circled around and sniffed around, but found no food.
The hungry lion roared angrily, and the roar broke through the sky.
Someone in the crowd coughed quietly, causing the already violent lion to turn its head suddenly.
Those eyes that glowed green under the night light stared straight at the mound where they were hiding.
There was confusion and a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
The next second, the lion walked directly towards the mound based on its sense of smell, sniffing and looking along the way.
Everyone was very nervous and prayed that the lion would not come over.
Almost everyone closed their eyes, and time stood still at this moment.
The lion lost its way again.
Just when everyone was about to rejoice that the lion was leaving.
Mrs. Wei narrowed her eyes and she had stood behind Su Huaiyue without her knowing when.
Those sparkling eyes had a terrifying look.
She stretched out her hands and waited for the right moment, and just as the lion was about to turn around, she pushed Su Huaiyue out.
"Go to hell! Su Huaiyue."
Su Huaiyue's attention was all on the lion at the moment, and she didn't notice Wei Ersao approaching quietly.
Her body was pushed out violently and fell to the ground.
The loud noise instantly made the lion furious, and his hair stood up.
The sound waves of the lion's roar rushed straight towards Su Huaiyue's face, and she suddenly closed her eyes.
He took out a crossbow from the space and pulled the trigger.
The sword shot straight at the lion's forehead.
The lion, who would not surrender himself, moved suddenly.
The sword shot off target and pierced the lion's eyes directly. Blood spurted out instantly and sprayed all over Su Huaiyue's face.
The intense pain made the violent lion retreat straight back.
Su Huaiyue seized the opportunity and quickly hid aside.
This sudden change made everyone present unable to react.
Everyone screamed and ran away.
The lion, who had lost one eye, moved in a disorderly but unusually fast manner due to the severe pain.
The first person to run out from behind the mound became the target of the angry lion's attack.
Many people were knocked down by the lions.
There were people screaming all around.
The lion with only one eye was looking for enemies who wanted to hurt him.
Soon she saw Su Huaiyue hiding in the corner to rest.
Then he pounced on her, opened his bloody mouth and was determined to bite her to death.
The next moment, Su Huaiyue lay on the ground, raised his sword and crossbow and shot an arrow straight into the lion's mouth.
The sharp sword pierced through the back of its neck, and the lion howled in pain.
The attack hit her, and she quickly stood up and retreated to a safe area.
Although the lion was seriously injured, Su Huaiyue's back was also scratched by the lion's sharp claws, leaving a long wound.
