Luo Qingqing and Xiao Jiuchen only had the tinder they carried with them, and no lighting devices such as torches.
What's more, they didn't know where they were, so it was really not easy to find a way out.
Suddenly, the howling of wolves was heard in the mountains.
Awooo!
Awooo!
Although Luo Qingqing was born into a military family, she was raised in the boudoir since childhood and was still very afraid of wild beasts.
When she heard the cry, she was so scared that she threw herself on Xiao Jiuchen.
She pressed her whole body against Xiao Jiuchen, wishing she could hide herself.
She hugged Xiao Jiuchen tightly with both arms, her head still turning restlessly to check the surroundings, "Great...Great Village Master, there is...there is a wolf...a wolf!"
Xiao Jiuchen didn't reply to her.
He looked extremely distressed.
After a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Luoqing, get out!"
Although Luo Qingqing was confused, her instinctive fear of wild wolves made her shake her head desperately and she refused to let go of Xiao Jiuchen.
Xiao Jiuchen reached out and grabbed the back of Luo Qingqing's collar and lifted her off him.
He groaned and said, "You hurt me."
Luo Qingqing huddled next to Xiao Jiuchen, looking around to see if there were any wild wolves approaching, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry."
She subconsciously glanced at Xiao Jiuchen's wound.
She thought she had pressed on his wound.
Her eyes suddenly swept over the bulge next to Xiao Jiuchen's wound, and her face immediately blushed with embarrassment.
Xiao Jiuchen gave her a speechless look, picked up his trousers and started putting them on.
Luo Qingqing suddenly had an epiphany.
Xiao Jiuchen said that she pressed him, and it turned out that the place where she pressed him was so difficult to talk about.
Although Luo Qingqing was ashamed, her fear of the wild wolves prevented her from staying too far away from Xiao Jiuchen.
She leaned against him, looking around curiously.
After the pain slowly subsided, Xiao Jiuchen said, "From the sounds, the wolves are very far away. They shouldn't come over."
Even though Xiao Jiuchen said this, Luo Qingqing still didn't dare to relax her nervous mind.
After Xiao Jiuchen put on his shoes, he and Luo Qingqing found a small cave.
The two men moved some stones and picked up some branches to cover the entrance of the cave, and then they began to rest.
The sounds of the wolves were getting farther and farther away; it was obvious they had gone somewhere else.
But Luo Qingqing was still worried. She leaned against the wall of the cave, holding a dagger in her hand, and her mind was always on alert.
After Xiao Jiuchen talked to Luo Qingqing for a few words, he lay down and fell into a deep sleep, feeling quite content with his circumstances.
That night, Luo Qingqing didn't know when she fell asleep.
In the early morning, the morning light shines outside the cave, and the insects and birds sing, making it very lively.
After Xiao Jiuchen woke up, he saw Luo Qingqing leaning against the wall of the cave, sleeping very soundly.
She hugged her feet with her hands, looking extremely scared.
Xiao Jiuchen secretly complained in his heart, thinking that the women in the village were indeed people who only cared about appearance.
Although Luo Qingqing's martial arts skills are decent, he is extremely timid and does not have the slightest bit of manliness.
Xiao Jiuchen strode out.
He looked around and found that they were in a valley surrounded by cliffs.
Looking up, there were towering trees everywhere, and it seemed like there was no exit.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Jiuchen was not panicked.
He picked some wild fruits along the way and caught two rabbits, intending to fill his stomach first.
Xiao Jiuchen returned to the cave where he had rested last night, slaughtered a rabbit by the stream outside, made a fire and started roasting the rabbit meat.
The aroma of the slowly roasted rabbit meat quickly woke Luo Qingqing up.
Luo Qingqing was pleasantly surprised to see that there was meat to eat.
She had missed dinner last night and had only eaten a simple pancake before entering the cave.
She had been frightened all night, and now that it was daybreak and she felt safe, she suddenly felt very hungry.
She grabbed a rabbit and started to chew it without caring whether it was hot or not.
As she ate it, she exclaimed in admiration: "Mmm, delicious, delicious, really delicious, really delicious..."
Xiao Jiuchen also took another rabbit and started eating it slowly.
After eating the rabbit, the two began to eat wild fruits.
Xiao Jiuchen briefly described their situation. "...From my observation, we should be at the bottom of the cave we entered yesterday. Even if the brothers in the village want to find us, it probably won't be easy. The best thing to do now is to find a way out on our own."
Luo Qingqing nodded.
She took the wild fruit and ate it while standing up. "Captain, let's quickly set out and find a way out."
She was so scared last night that she didn't want to stay here for a moment.
Not only are there towering trees in this valley, but there are also shrubs half a person's height growing under the trees.
It would definitely take a lot of effort to walk through it and find a way out.
Xiao Jiuchen stood by the stream, stroking his chin in thought.
After a while, he said, "Xiao Luoqing, the stream will eventually flow out of the valley. If we follow the stream, we will eventually find a way out."
Luo Qingqing clapped his hands and laughed, "Great Village Leader, you are still wise."
Xiao Jiuchen patted her shoulder and scolded her with a smile: "Stop flattering me. Be braver and don't be so jumpy. That's the greatest respect for me. You almost made me lose my little brother last night."
It took Luo Qingqing a while to realize what Xiao Jiuchen was talking about.
In Xiao Jiuchen's eyes, Luo Qingqing is just a man.
