Chapter 78 Bloodstained Robe
Su Rui had no time to listen to Chang Ning's useless words.
He stared at the wild dogs and slowly picked up the nearest sword.
With just this one action, the wild dogs moved a few steps closer.
Originally, when the torches fell, they were scattered and should have fled in all directions, but they did not. Instead, they just observed the situation and quickly gathered around.
Because they were very hungry, they were unwilling to give up their two rare prey.
They are very smart and know how to hunt. When they see that no one comes down from above, they know there is still a chance.
They are still waiting and watching, and once they are sure that there is no further action from above, they will act quickly and decisively.
Su Rui stared at them, and they stared at her.
When her fingers touched the sword, the leading wild dog immediately pounced on her.
"ah!"
Tang Yuli screamed in fright.
Su Rui grabbed the sword, drew it out quickly, and stabbed the wild dog with one sword. At the same time, he picked up the other sword and threw it to Tang Yuli, shouting, "Take the sword. Kill them if you don't want to die."
The wild dogs attacked in groups, and Su Rui could do nothing about it. He could only grit his teeth and fight with his sword.
These wild dogs were too smart. Seeing that they had weapons in their hands, they stopped advancing and instead surrounded them, looking for an opportunity to separate the two people and kill the weaker Tang Yuli first.
Su Rui grabbed her and said, back to back with her, "Hold on! Don't give them a chance. Kill every one that comes!"
Although Tang Yuli was trembling all over, he still held the sword tightly in his hand and nodded seriously.
The wild dog attacked again, this time more fiercely and desperately, just wanting to tear a piece of meat from the two men to fill its stomach.
One dog bit the sword in Su Rui's hand, and several others quickly pounced on it to bite.
Su Rui was quick-witted and quick-handed. He picked up a wooden stick and hit the dog on the nose. When it let go, he drew his sword and slashed, cutting open the stomachs of several dogs that rushed over.
Blood and internal organs gushed out instantly, covering the two men's faces and bodies.
Tang Yuli couldn't help but want to vomit, and Su Rui scolded him: "If you want to die, then vomit. Expose your neck to them."
Tang Yuli immediately suppressed his anger, gritted his teeth, tried not to think about it, and swung his sword continuously.
Although Tang Yuli is not a martial artist, he is obedient and will not be a drag.
Fortunately, there were not many wild dogs, and they had been hungry for a while. The two men fought each other closely and killed them. After eleven or twelve wild dogs died, the rest fled.
After waiting for a while, Su Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was indeed no counterattack.
Tang Yuli sat down on the ground exhausted, gasping for breath.
Su Rui was exhausted and could already taste blood in her mouth. She couldn't stop here. She stretched out her hand to Tang Yuli and said, "Get up! Go outside, otherwise the smell of blood will attract other beasts."
Tang Yuli raised his hand with difficulty and stood up with the help of Su Rui. The two of them supported each other and limped forward.
Fortunately, the people above understood their thoughts without them having to shout, and threw torches all the way towards the exit.
With the light, the speed is much faster and it can also scare away other animals in the canyon.
After walking all the way to the iron gate, the two men were finally exhausted. They sat down on the ground leaning against the canyon wall, breathing heavily.
"Miss Su, thank you." Tang Yuli said breathlessly.
"I thank you too. If you had fallen down with me, Princess Changning would not have saved me." Su Rui spoke the truth. Without Tang Yuli, she couldn't even get a weapon.
"My cousin is quite stubborn, can you..."
"No." Before Tang Yuli could finish her words, Su Rui directly rejected her.
She is vindictive. If Changning doesn't let her go, she won't let Changning go either. They can only be mortal enemies.
Tang Yuli understood and stopped talking because he heard a noise coming from outside the iron gate.
Someone came to open the door and rescue them.
Just as I was rejoicing, a package was thrown in from above the tall iron gate. Before I could see it clearly, it fell to the ground, emitting a strong smell of blood.
There was also a piece of paper inside, with blood-stained words written on it: Su Rui, go to hell!
Even though the handwriting was blurred by blood, Su Rui could recognize it at a glance. It was Zhou Yao's.
"It's the smell of venison! Where does it come from? Is the Black Panther nearby?" Above his head, the captain of the guards asked anxiously.
The answer is self-evident.
Su Rui had already seen the nimble figure that quickly leaped out from the darkness.
It was shiny black and stopped in front of them, looking at them, its shining eyes reflecting the firelight, without any of the caution of a wild dog.
Because Su Rui and Tang Yuli posed no threat in front of it.
The people on the canyon wall were in chaos, but Su Rui and Tang Yuli could no longer hear any sound and they were frozen in place.
'Roar!'
With a roar, the black panther pounced towards the two men.
The primary target is Tang Yuli.
Faced with a real bloodthirsty beast, Tang Yuli wanted to escape, but his legs were completely weak and he couldn't move at all.
Looking at that bloody mouth, my mind went blank.
Suddenly, he was pushed from the side and fell to the ground.
“Run!”
It was Su Rui's roar, not around.
Turning around, she saw that Su Rui had been bitten on the shoulder by the black panther and was pinned to the ground. Her hands, already exhausted, were unable to push the beast away.
At the same time, the iron gate opened, and Changning, escorted by guards, shouted to Tang Yuli, "Lili! Come out quickly!"
"No! Cousin! Save her! Save her!" Tang Yuli lay on the ground crying. She knew that as soon as she went out, Changning would definitely close the iron gate and let Su Rui be bitten.
"Come out first!" Chang Ning shouted urgently, quickly ordering the guards around him: "Go! Take her out before that beast is busy."
Seeing the guards coming in, Tang Yuli wanted to resist and fight for Su Rui, but she was so weak that she was no match for them and was dragged up by the guards.
Even if she tried hard, she could only leave useless marks on the ground with her feet. Tears welled up in her eyes as she watched the black panther raise its head, press its sharp claws on Su Rui's bleeding shoulder, and open its mouth wide, heading towards her throat.
"don't want!"
Listening to Tang Yuli's painful screams, Su Rui could see the bloody mouth and the pitch-black throat.
One more breath and she would die.
What a pity, nothing is finished yet.
But she had no strength left and couldn't even raise her hands.
If there are gods and Buddhas, please, please give me another chance.
The black panther lowered its head and was ready to finish the job with one bite.
'Bang!'
Just as Su Rui closed her eyes, prepared for the sharp teeth to pierce her throat and suffocate to death, a loud noise rang in her ears.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the black panther flying away from his body at a high speed, hitting the canyon wall, and then falling to the ground. Blood gushed out of its throat and it could not get up.
Turning around, it was Yun Ji!
His robe was stained with blood, his chest heaved with panting, and there was panic in his compassionate eyes.
He reached out and picked her up from the ground, held her tightly in his arms, turned around and walked out.
Su Rui didn't have the strength to speak, she just nestled in his arms, which made her feel safe.
