Chapter 247 Just missed it!
"Thank you very much for saving me, young man. Otherwise, my son and I would have died here today!"
Adong showed gratitude on his face and limped forward, stepping over the jackal's corpse.
Without waiting for him to say thank you, Ran Qingxuan took off his hat and goggles and looked at the two of them with a smile.
"Lu Hunter, we haven't seen each other for a few days. I didn't expect that we would meet here!"
"Um?"
Hunter Lu was bending over to express his gratitude when he heard the strange yet familiar voice and his eyes suddenly widened.
"You...oh, isn't this Madam Gu and Master Gu?"
Adong never expected that he would meet Ran Qingxuan and his wife again, and be rescued again under such circumstances.
When the father and son were surprised, Ran Qingxuan asked with some confusion.
"Don't you live in Qingshui County? Why are you here?"
When the team passed through Qingshui County a few days ago, Ran Qingxuan mentioned to Gu Yanchen that Lu the Hunter and his men lived in the village over here. Unexpectedly, they met them here just a few days later.
Unexpectedly, Adong next to him quickly lowered his head when he heard this, and two blushes instantly appeared on his wheat-colored cheeks.
Ran Qingxuan looked a little puzzled, while Lu Liehu was smiling happily.
"Madam, you may not know that our Adong and Qingqing have been engaged since they were young. After the last incident, the two children also expressed their intention to get married as soon as possible.
My in-laws don’t have any requirements for the betrothal gift, but we don’t want to let Qingqing down.
I had just thought of trying my luck in Qianchong Mountain to see if I could hunt a big animal and get some good skin as a betrothal gift, but I never expected to run into this group of hungry jackals the very next day after entering the mountain! ”
As he said this, Hunter Lu patted Adong, who was almost dragged away by the wolf, with lingering fear, and said in a deep voice.
“I don’t know what merits our family had accumulated in the previous life, but we were able to meet a female Bodhisattva like Madam Gu, who not only saved Qingqing, but also saved us, father and son, from the wolf’s mouth.
Adong, kneel down after your father. We can’t repay this kindness in this lifetime, but we must kowtow to the master and the mistress to express our gratitude! ”
Under the influence of Ran Qingxuan, Gu Yanchen also felt that it was troublesome to be kneeled down by others, but the two insisted on doing so. Ran Qingxuan dodged for a while before quickly helping them up.
"Fate has brought us together here again, so there's no need to thank you. But if you know how to get out and take us out, we'll have to thank you in return!"
Hunter Lu didn't know why they were trapped here, but if he had to tell it, he would naturally have no choice but to do it.
“We originally wanted to go out from the bottom of the cliff, but when we got there in the morning we found that the road below the cliff was blocked by snow and wind, so we took this road.
However, after taking this road, you can only go out by taking a detour from the mountain on the right and entering Huangling Village. ”
Ran Qingxuan hesitated for a moment: "Then can't we go out from the left side?"
Hunter Lu quickly shook his head and tried to persuade him.
"There are more than a dozen mountains on the left. It's hard to say whether we can go up in this weather. If we get lost after going up, there will be no one to help us!"
"We just follow them. They hunt all year round and know which road is safe."
"Yes, Master Gu is right. If the way out hadn't been blocked, we wouldn't have risked taking this road."
In this case, Ran Qingxuan couldn't say anything. While resting on the spot, the father and son skillfully peeled off eight wolf skins, removed the wolf legs and installed them before setting off.
Although these jackals were so skinny that there was hardly any meat left, the legs alone were enough for them to eat for several days.
If it were just the two of them in the snow and ice, Ran Qingxuan could still go into the space and cook without restraint, but he saved someone by chance and didn't mention entering the space.
Adong and his father walked in front holding torches to clear the way, while Ran Qingxuan was supported by Gu Yanchen all the way.
When he turned back inadvertently, Hunter Lu realized that Ran Qingxuan had some difficulty in moving.
"Mrs. Gu is injured?"
"Well, I fell down. I'll be fine after some rest."
Ran Qingxuan didn't want to elaborate, and seeing this, Hunter Lu didn't ask any more questions.
But not long after the four of them walked out of the canyon, He Xun appeared at the crevice with a face full of scratches and a bloody arm.
Originally, he was planning to enter from the bottom of the cliff to search, but he didn't expect that after only walking for half a day, he saw that the foot of the cliff, which was not very high, was full of snow.
After observing for a while, He Xun decided to let down the rope from the spot and slide down from the snow to look for the traces of the two people.
But he didn't expect that during the slide he hit a big tree hidden in the snow, breaking bones and poking out flesh, and blood gushed out of his left arm instantly.
After he managed to suppress the dizziness and stabilize his arm, he headed towards the bottom of the cliff.
He Xun lost too much blood and walked in circles. He fell and got up countless times before he finally walked to the crevice with difficulty.
If it weren't for the strong smell of blood blowing from inside, He Xun would never have discovered that there was such a path at the bottom of the cliff.
The skinned carcasses of animals and the blood splattered all over the ground indicated how fierce the "battle" had been before.
He Xun reached out and dipped some wolf blood on his fingertips. When he found that it had just solidified, he was overjoyed and chased after it.
If the blood hasn't dried yet, it means the person hasn't gone far. He Xun is also taking a gamble, betting that the people who killed the jackal and left are Ran Qingxuan and his men.
It turned out that he made the right bet!
But something more troublesome is happening quietly in an invisible place...
Gu Yanchen supported Ran Qingxuan and followed behind Lu Liehu, taking one deep step and one shallow step, and finally they went down to the ground along the snow mountain on the right.
Fortunately, the snow mountain on the right is not steep, so it is basically easy to go down.
"Let's rest here for a while. Now that it's not snowing and the road is easy to walk on, let's walk all the way to where we're going to rest tonight."
"Okay, Uncle Lu, you make the arrangements, and my husband and I will follow you."
Lu Tao knew that Ran Qingxuan was an easy-going person, but he was still a little reluctant to accept her address.
"Mrs. Gu..."
"Uncle Lu, we have become familiar with each other after these few meetings. Please stop calling us Madam and Master. Just call us by our names."
"How can this be..."
Hunter Lu waved his hands in confusion. With the friendship of rescuing the man, how could he possibly call him by his name?
Ran Qingxuan spoke in a relaxed tone, even with a hint of joking.
"Why not? It just so happens that my name is Ran Qingxuan, and I am about the same age as a young man. When you call me Madam, I always feel like I am much older..."
"But calling her by her first name is a bit rude. How about I call you Miss Qingxuan and your husband Master Gu? What do you think?"
After changing the address, Ran Qingxuan instantly felt much better. Anyway, both of them knew that they were husband and wife, so this address was just right.
Just as Ran Qingxuan was smiling and preparing to respond, a dull roar came from the snow-capped mountains behind him.
The four people's expressions changed, and they stood up and looked back quickly.
