He has a fever.
His body was burning hot, pressing against her heart, and the resulting warmth dispelled the chill of the night.
The two people's breathing intertwined tightly.
In fact, she didn't like doing such things, just like the shadow left behind, every time she mentioned it, it was always not so good.
"Xiao Jiu..."
His voice was hoarse, and he was on the verge of being half awake and half unconscious, with his fingers tightly intertwined with hers.
"Why...why...you killed me...and her...she is innocent..."
What is he talking about?
Why doesn't she understand?
Maybe it's just nonsense due to the high fever, you can't believe it.
There was no time for her to think, and they both went to ruin.
-
"ah!"
In the early morning, a scream broke the tranquility of the mountains. Chu Li woke up instantly, wrapped Chu Dichi's coat tightly, and looked at the middle-aged man who appeared unexpectedly.
“Damn it… Damn it! You guys…”
The middle-aged man was wearing a straw hat, a cloak made of animal skins, and a bow on his shoulder. He looked like a hunter from nearby.
“You’re actually here…”
illicit sexual relations?
Or an affair?
A single man and a single woman.
Deep mountains and old forests.
The degree of fear was no less than seeing a ghost.
Chu Li quickly regained his composure, touched Chu Dichi's forehead with his backhand, and when it was no longer hot, he looked at the hunter and said:
"We strayed into the mountains and got lost. If you can lead us out, you will be rewarded handsomely."
The hunter retreated in panic:
"You are not human... You are definitely not human!"
"Uncle..."
“Ghost!”
The hunter ran away.
This mountain has always been strange and weird. Several hunters in the village have entered the mountain and could not get out. If his hunting dog had not been lost and he had come to look for it, he would not have accidentally entered this mountain.
He doesn't want to die yet!
Chu Li was confused.
A grown man was so scared. Was she so scary?
However, by following the direction in which the hunter escaped and the traces of trampled thorns in the grass, one can find the way out.
"Uncle, wake up."
"Uncle?"
I called out several times, but to no avail.
The most urgent task is to let Chu Dichi recover quickly. She is a weak woman and cannot carry him on her back.
He drew out his dagger, walked into the woods, and prepared to look for some wild fruits to eat.
I haven't eaten a single grain of rice since yesterday afternoon, and I'm starving.
Chu Li walked more than ten meters deeper into the forest. Fearing that he might get lost, he did not dare to walk too far. He only walked around a short distance and vaguely discovered a strange phenomenon:
In this forest...
It seems that no animals were seen.
Not a single bird was seen.
It's eerily quiet.
Generally, such deep wild forests are inhabited by a rich variety of animals, from wild boars, bears and deer to rabbits, birds and snakes, but here it is very quiet.
rustle--
Suddenly, there was a sound in the bushes over there.
Chu Li held the dagger tightly with caution and stared over.
rustle--
The grass rustled, the sound was getting closer and louder... and suddenly a man walked out.
However, he was a man who looked rather strange.
His lips were black and blue, and he looked like he was frozen. His eyes were cloudy and unfocused. He was wearing black leather armor and had a long sword at his waist. He looked like a soldier.
It's really creepy to suddenly run into such a person in this deep forest.
"Who are you?"
When the man heard the voice, his eyes turned around twice, as if looking for a direction, and soon settled on Chu Li.
Staring straight.
The eyeballs looked like dead fish that had been soaked for half a month.
He took a step forward and walked straight towards Chu Li.
"stop!"
Chu Li's back trembled slightly, and he secretly cried out that he saw a ghost.
"If you come over here again, I won't be polite!"
The man shuffled over, strode forward, and held out his hands...
Phew!
Chu Li didn't hold back and stabbed his arm with a knife as a warning, but to her surprise, the man didn't even make a sound and strangled her neck with both hands.
“Hmm!”
She immediately pulled out her dagger and stabbed it into his abdomen.
But after stabbing her three times in a row, the man was like a corpse, strangling her tightly, his dead fish eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
What the hell is this?
How come it can’t be killed?
Chu Li pulled out the knife and was about to stab it into his heart, but the man raised his five fingers with long nails and stabbed them into her neck.
Bang!
At the critical moment, a powerful internal force blew the man away several meters.
"Uncle!"
Chu Di was late.
He stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand to pull Chu Li up, snatched the dagger from her hand, and threw it out.
Blood splattered.
The dagger pierced the man's head and pinned him to the tree trunk. His limbs were still twitching...
Chu Li looked at this scene and felt horrified:
"Uncle, this man seems to be unkillable."
The head was pierced, but the body was still able to move.
Chu Dichi held her waist and stepped back a few steps. "He has a poisonous insect in his body."
"The witchcraft of the southern barbarians?"
"good."
Chu Li had heard from the King of Chu, and had also heard many rumors in the market, that the unique witchcraft of the southern barbarians could bring the dead back to life, turn bones into flesh, and have all kinds of miraculous effects.
For example, love Gu.
If a person is infected with the love poison, two people who do not love each other can still support each other.
There is also the mother-child Gu, which is said to be able to make people obedient.
There is also the Life and Death Gu, which is said to be able to bring the dead back to life.
Various kinds of poisonous insects...
It was the first time that Chu Li saw with his own eyes that a poisonous insect could control the human body, making a person not afraid of pain or bleeding, and impossible to kill. Is this still a human being?
"Half a month ago, General Qin sent a secret report to the capital, saying that he had discovered this phenomenon."
Chu Di said late:
"The Nanman are secretly refining this poisonous insect and planting it in the soldiers' bodies to increase their strength and make them able to defeat ten enemies at once. They are not afraid of death or pain, and will always maintain their strongest physical strength, which can play a huge role on the battlefield."
If this army of the living dead were allowed onto the battlefield, let alone attacking Southern Xinjiang, I'm afraid they would want to take down the entire Great Chu.
The Nanman has great ambitions!
Chu Li said, "No wonder the hunter looked terrified when he saw us and fled in panic. There must be a secret hidden in this mountain."
This soldier ran out, probably because the camp where the evil poison was refined was nearby.
Woof woof——
Between the mountains and fields, the barking of hunting dogs spread far and clear in the quiet forest.
Chu Li looked over alertly, "They are still hunting us!"
They are coming!
The hounds came again.
"We can't stay here any longer, we have to leave quickly, uncle, do you feel better now?"
"I've been sweating a lot and now I feel much better. Xiaojiu, I'm glad to have you."
If it weren't for her help and exercising together, his fever wouldn't have gone down so quickly.
Chu Li's feet skidded, and he almost fell. He didn't want to talk to him about this topic, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's run this way!"
Chu Di said slowly: "Take off your pants."
"What?"
"You've been with Chu Yeli, and the smell on your body is something that the hounds are most familiar with. Take off all your clothes and wear mine."
"this……"
"I had to do this to escape."
"I was afraid you might peek."
"Do I need to peek?" The man's eyes were like obsidian, dark as an eagle's, as if they could see through everything. Naturally, he didn't mean to be shy.
He didn't have to peek.
He looked directly.
