Thinking back to how the bullet grazed her cheek, Shi Xi still felt a lingering fear.
If it weren't for her instinctive reaction, she might have died long ago.
“I suspected him before,” Xie Yunzhou said quickly. “Shixu has installed a tracker on him. Take out the locator from my pocket and check his location.”
Shi Xi took out the locator and found that the red dot on it was moving in their direction.
Xie Yunzhou chuckled lightly, his voice low and cold, "He still dares to come looking for me?"
Shi Xi hesitated and said, "Why don't we avoid him and talk about it after we get down the mountain?"
If she were at full strength right now, she wouldn't even think about running away.
But the hunter had a gun, was a strong, middle-aged man, and was familiar with the terrain.
Xie Yunzhou carried her with him, still wounded.
Shi Xi never imagined that she would one day become a burden.
Xie Yunzhou knelt down and placed the girl on the ground, saying gently, "I'll deal with him first, then I'll come back to find you."
"Don't go!" Shi Xi pulled him back, her eyes full of worry.
There's always a chance of something going wrong.
She didn't want to gamble on that chance.
But the current situation no longer allows Shi Xi to back down.
The red dot was getting closer and closer. Before Xie Yunzhou could even go to find him, the hunter had already spotted the two of them.
The hunter, with a cigarette between his teeth, raised his gun and aimed at Shi Xi when he saw her.
Xie Yunzhou took out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at the hunter.
The hunter was surprised that Xie Yunzhou was carrying a gun and cursed under his breath.
If he shoots and kills Shi Xi, Xie Yunzhou will immediately shoot him.
But if he turns and runs away, Xie Yunzhou will definitely not be polite.
A stalemate has been reached.
The hunter's eyes were sinister as he stared intently at Xie Yunzhou's movements, then suddenly pointed his rifle at Xie Yunzhou.
If Xie Yunzhou is killed, wouldn't that woman who's almost dead be at his mercy?
Shi Xi said from the side, "That hunter not only wanted to kill me, he also killed the tourists who came here before."
She wasn't afraid of the hunter, but she was worried that if Xie Yunzhou killed the hunter, it would be difficult to deal with the situation later.
After all, this is a society governed by the rule of law.
Xie Yunzhou calmly said, "Get behind me and don't move."
Shi Xi thought to herself, "The hunter is pointing a gun at you now, but I'm not afraid."
But she still obediently hid behind Xie Yunzhou.
Then, gunshots rang out!
Shi Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked at Xie Yunzhou standing in front of her.
Xie Yunzhou remained unmoved and fired another shot.
Xie Yunzhou is alright, that means...
Shi Xi quickly looked to the other side and saw that the hunter had a bloody hole in his shoulder and leg.
The snow around him was stained red.
As expected of Xie Yunzhou!
Shi Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as Xie Yunzhou was about to call Shi Xu and ask him to send more people to bring the hunter back, the snow suddenly shook.
"What happened?" Xie Yunzhou steadied himself and went to help Shi Xi.
"Is another avalanche about to occur?" Shi Xi looked at the snow-capped mountain peak, still haunted by the memory of the first avalanche.
Xie Yunzhou, recalling Shi Xu's description of a second avalanche, immediately picked up Shi Xi.
He was no more than a hunter; he strode back.
The hunter was hit in the shoulder and leg, and struggled to his feet.
Seeing the impending second avalanche, the hunter knew that in his condition, he would not be able to escape.
The hunter watched the two figures disappear into the distance, a chill creeping into his heart.
Oh.
Even if I die, I'll take someone down with me!
The hunter struggled to pick up his rifle.
A sharp pain shot through his shoulder, but he endured it and aimed at Xie Yunzhou.
The second avalanche was even more powerful than the one caused by the first blasting.
Gunshots rang out.
The earth shook and the mountains collapsed.
