Immediately afterwards, an unidentified object flew straight towards his face…
Because he was constantly watching Qi Xiaojie's movements, his awareness of defense was extremely sharp...
He had just raised his hand to protect his face when a sharp pain shot through his right elbow.
That was clearly the feeling of a stone touching the body...
Cody rubbed his elbows together, then suddenly became angry…
"Fuck you! You little bespectacled guy, you're asking for it!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than several more stones flew rapidly toward him...
He quickly covered his head...
The stone arrived in an instant, and he felt excruciating pain in his chest, armpits, lower abdomen, and arms.
It looked like someone had simultaneously struck it hard with a rough, uneven hammer...
"Ahh!"
He was hit so hard he covered his head and scrambled to his feet, unable to move forward an inch, and could only retreat repeatedly…
Moreover, my whole body ached, and for a moment I didn't know which part to rub...
"Are you all dead?! Kill him!"
Upon hearing this, Watanabe and Kuga immediately drew the arrows from their backs, preparing to nock their bows…
Seeing the two people's actions, Qi Xiaoyan quickly reminded them:
"Xiaojie! Take down those two first!"
Qi Xiaojie glanced to the side and immediately pulled out two more round stones, each about half the size of a palm, from his pocket…
He squeezed it slightly, then flung it away forcefully…
The stone flew towards Watanabe and his companion at a speed too fast for the naked eye to see…
Just as Watanabe nocked his bow, a stone struck his finger.
He immediately felt a sharp pain, and the wooden bow in his hand fell to the ground.
His fingers were still trembling, and it seemed unlikely that he would be able to hold the bow steady anytime soon.
Kuga was less fortunate; another rock hit him right on the bridge of his nose.
The blow knocked him to the ground, where he rolled around, clutching his nose…
"ah!……"
The pig-like screams could probably be heard even from the other side of the river.
Judging from his pained expression, his nose is probably broken...
This scene truly left Cody completely dumbfounded…
This bespectacled kid looks a bit dim-witted; I thought he'd be the easiest to deal with.
I never expected they had such a hidden trick up their sleeve...
Despite his surprise, he had no intention of letting them off so easily…
"Put your backpack in front of you! We can't let them escape today!"
After saying that, everyone except Kuga, who was lying on the ground howling, hung their backpacks on their chests and walked towards Qi Xiaojie...
Qi Xiaojie quickly pulled up the delirious Fu Changxiong and retreated while throwing stones...
Qi Xiaojie may be a bit slow-witted, but she's not stupid...
Knowing that the other side had a backpack as a buffer, his stones wouldn't hit vital organs.
So he directly shifted his focus to the lower body...
The shinbone is among the top five areas in the human body with the most pain receptors…
When he was studying at the orphanage, his calves would often bump against the tables and chairs.
Moreover, each time the pain lasts for a long time, making it impossible to move; in severe cases, the pain can last for several days.
After thinking it over, Qi Xiaojie aimed at Cody's left foot and, in a skipping motion, threw it at an angle...
"Thump!"
A not-so-soft thud was heard...
"Aha!"
Cody's screams were even more agonizing than Kuga's; he lay on his side on the ground, clutching his feet and rubbing them incessantly…
His facial features were all scrunched up, and you could feel his pain just by looking at him.
This made the others stop in their tracks, and they immediately crouched down, completely hiding their bodies behind their backpacks.
At that moment, they felt that the small-eyed man opposite them was much more difficult to deal with than the big man.
He's nearsighted, but it's like he has a built-in aiming device; he hits exactly where he points. It's uncanny...
Even if they manage to kill a few of them in the end, having a leg broken in this kind of place is practically a death sentence...
No matter how much money you have, it's useless if you don't live to enjoy it.
Taking advantage of the moment when the others relaxed, Fu Changxiong quickly picked up the unconscious Liu Sisi, then helped Qi Xiaoyan up... and retreated rapidly...
Qi Xiaojie stared intently at Cody and the others, clutching the last stone in his pocket, his heart pounding with panic…
He seemed to have the upper hand, but he knew…
Everyone in the team except him is injured right now; they absolutely cannot stay here any longer…
In close combat, he couldn't beat any of these people.
If this drags on, once the stones are gone, the enemy will definitely pounce and kill everyone.
After thinking it over, he swallowed hard and made a decision...
"Brother Xiong, you...you take me...my sister away! I'll stop...stop them!"
"What are you saying!"
Fu Changxiong refused outright…
"Nonsense! You, a kid, are supposed to cover for me while I run away? I can't afford to lose face like that!"
Qi Xiaoyan shook her head repeatedly...
"No! I can't leave you here alone!"
Qi Xiaojie anxiously pushed up his glasses; he really wasn't just acting recklessly...
He had already planned his escape strategy...
After all, Ye Feng's ultimate weapon hasn't been used yet...
"Oh, sis! I...I have a way. You forgot, Feng...Brother Feng, that...thing...for me?"
At this point, he deliberately raised his voice...
"Besides! I...I still have...lots of...stones! As long as...they dare to show their faces, I'll smash...smash them to death!"
Upon hearing this, the two instantly recalled the fruit from the Sounding Box Tree that Ye Feng had picked…
They had all witnessed the power of that thing, and if Qi Xiaojie's throwing accuracy was added to that, escaping shouldn't be difficult.
Most importantly, both of them are at their limit now, and staying would probably only be a burden to him...
After thinking it over, Qi Xiaoyan could only nod in agreement...
"Alright, Xiao Jie, be careful. If you can't beat them, run away. Don't be a hero."
"Yes! I know, I understand."
After saying that, she reluctantly pulled Fu Changxiong away...
Watching the two stagger away, Qi Xiaojie finally breathed a sigh of relief…
At the same time, his words just now also frightened Tang Ji and the others…
They are now traumatized by Qi Xiaojie's stones.
Cody was still lying on the ground, clutching his legs, groaning softly…
He is now experiencing throbbing pain in his legs; he can't stand up, and even exerting force is painful…
Even so, he didn't want to let them go...
"Idiots! Get up and chase after him! All this kid does is throw stones. If you all attack together, he's doomed! If you don't hurry, he'll get far ahead!"
"I'll let you...speak!"
Qi Xiaojie launched another stone...
"Thump!"
This hit Cody's side of the head perfectly; you could tell from the sound that it was a good head...
However, his eyes rolled back and he fainted...
Seeing that they could be hit even while lying down, the three of them huddled even tighter, afraid of exposing even a sliver of skin...
"Watanabe, think of something! Are we just going to watch them get away like this?!"
Tang Ji said angrily…
As the person in the team who had the most lives on his hands, he had never felt so frustrated.
Three grown men were so frightened by a child that they dared not show their faces...
