Chapter 188 Hold Me Tight
When Su Cheng learned that Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang wanted to leave the team and go alone, he frowned: "I agree, but they won't agree! We can't find a chance to leave them at the moment!"
"It's OK as long as you are willing. As for opportunities, there will always be one!"
There would indeed be an opportunity, but before Ji Yanmo could take action, a big problem occurred in the fleeing team.
The loyal assistant approached Lu Xingtang with a grim expression, "Miss Lu, something terrible has happened! Several team leaders have reported that one or two of their team members are missing. They were all insignificant or looked down upon members of the team! When they returned after not finding anyone, they discovered that several of their team members were radiant and in high spirits! It was completely different from us, who were starving!"
Lu Xingtang was not surprised: "Some of them transformed into two-legged beasts, and the missing people were eaten by them!"
The loyal assistant nodded: "If nothing unexpected happens, it's like this!" Recently everyone has been eating grass roots, tree barks, and Guanyin soil, and their bodies can no longer bear it. Yuli District currently cannot find any supplies, and in order to survive, everyone has turned their attention to their companions.
Lu Xingtang looked at Ji Yanmo and Su Cheng, and saw disgust and hatred in their eyes. She immediately decided: "Call over the person whose face is red from eating!"
However, just as the loyal assistant left, there was a flash of lightning and thunder in the sky, and dark clouds quickly gathered above their heads. Lightning struck down from the dark clouds. The moment they saw the lightning, everyone subconsciously dodged, but the lightning did not strike anyone.
Seeing this, the loyal assistant stopped doing anything and immediately returned to Su Cheng's side to protect him. Su Cheng didn't say anything either. In case a natural disaster occurred, they could run away together.
Lu Xingtang looked at Ji Yanmo, his eyes asking, "Did you create the lightning?" Ji Yanmo shook his head, indicating that it had nothing to do with him.
Lu Xingtang was shocked. That was a natural disaster! The next moment, a torrential downpour descended without warning, drenching everyone. Since they were in the wilderness, no one had any way to avoid the downpour, so they could only pull out their belongings and hold them above their heads for a temporary break. But the next moment, hailstones the size of babies' fists pelted down upon them, sending everyone screaming. They tried to dodge but couldn't, and the hail destroyed their belongings.
Lu Xingtang was protected by Ji Yanmo and was not hit by the hail, but she saw other people's heads were hit by hail, and blood flowed down their foreheads, but was soon washed away by the heavy rain.
Some people even picked up hailstones from the ground and threw them at the people next to them to avoid being hit by hailstones. After knocking the people unconscious, they used their bodies to block the hailstones.
Following suit, the others also began to pick up hailstones to attack their companions, using their companions' bodies to block the hailstones. Even if their companions were killed by the hailstones, no one let go of them until the hail stopped.
The loyal dog assistant and the fox assistant huddled together with Su Cheng and the other two. They found a few large rocks together and lifted them up to block the hail. Although the hail could still hit them, their heads were saved.
Ji Yanmo hugged Lu Xingtang tightly and secretly used his lightning ability to form a protective net to protect him and Lu Xingtang, so everyone saw the hail hitting them, but they could not feel the pain.
Soon, Ji Yanmo found a small cave and took Lu Xingtang there to take shelter. There was no one in the cave at the moment. Lu Xingtang immediately checked Ji Yanmo's condition and confirmed that he wasn't bleeding from the hail. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mo, eat your energy bar before anyone notices!"
Lu Xingtang immediately took out an opened energy bar from the space and fed it to Ji Yanmo, while she also quickly stuffed the energy bar in her mouth.
Seeing that no one had discovered the cave, he took out two more energy bars and fed them to Ji Yanmo. Ji Yanmo ate them obediently: "You should eat more too."
Lu Xingtang nodded repeatedly. They didn't dare to eat anything else. Energy bars could quickly replenish the carbohydrates their bodies needed.
Before they finished the energy bars in their mouths, they saw survivors running towards the cave. Lu Xingtang immediately picked up two hailstones from the ground, one for her and one for Ji Yanmo. Before the survivors entered the cave, they finished the energy bars and put the hailstones into their mouths. The hailstones tasted like ice cubes.
When the survivors saw Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo eating hailstones, they also picked up a few hailstones and went into the cave. They greeted Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo and ate the hailstones silently. Although they were not delicious, they filled their stomachs.
The hail lasted about five minutes and then stopped, but the heavy rain did not stop.
They waited for a while, and Ji Yanmo pulled Lu Xingtang out of the cave to look for Su Cheng, Fox Assistant, and Loyal Dog Assistant. They were not far away, looking for a suitable place to avoid the rainstorm. When they saw Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo, they immediately followed them, "How are you guys?"
Lu Xingtang responded loudly, but because his voice was too soft, the other party couldn't hear him: "We're fine. There's a cave up ahead. Let's go hide in the cave!"
"Okay!" Soon the five of them returned to the cave. The cave was already full. Many people discovered the cave and hid inside. Once Lu Xingtang and the others entered, the cave seemed even more crowded.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Lu Xingtang suddenly had an idea. "Our location is prone to mudslides and landslides. We can't stay in the cave for long. We have to leave quickly! Otherwise, we will be swept away by mudslides and landslides!"
After Lu Xingtang finished speaking, he pulled Ji Yanmo away, and Su Cheng and the two special assistants also left. As for the others, they could leave if they wanted to, and they wouldn't care if they didn't want to leave.
Not long after they left the cave in the heavy rain, they heard a thunderous sound. Looking back, they saw a mudslide rapidly sliding down the steep slope, right where they were. They were so frightened that they ran away. Although they were very fast, they were not faster than the mudslide. Just when Lu Xingtang was hesitating whether to take everyone into the space to hide, the ground under their feet suddenly collapsed, and their bodies fell down uncontrollably.
"Tangtang, hold on to me!" Ji Yanmo used his supernatural power to hold Lu Xingtang back, "Don't let go!"
Lu Xingtang had been protected in Ji Yanmo's arms. When she heard Ji Yanmo's words, she hugged him with all her strength. When she saw a big rock falling towards Ji Yanmo, she immediately put the big rock into the space.
But the next moment, a mudslide rushed down. Lu Xingtang made a quick decision, holding Ji Yanmo into the space, and landed steadily on the space grassland.
As for whether Su Cheng and the two special assistants saw it or not, it doesn’t matter. What matters now is staying alive.
After landing on the grassland, Lu Xingtang quickly broke free from Ji Yanmo's embrace and carefully examined him. He saw that Ji Yanmo's back was covered in wounds and blood, and even his bones were exposed. His eyes suddenly turned bloodshot. With a thought, a special medicine appeared in Lu Xingtang's palm: "Amo, eat it quickly! You will get better faster after eating it!"
Seeing Lu Xingtang's red eyes, Ji Yanmo ate it without hesitation.
A bottle of medical alcohol appeared in Lu Xingtang's hand, cleaning the wounds, dirt and sand on his back.
