Chapter 65: My cheeks are burning and I hold Wei Wei’s waist
Wei Wei was running very fast, while the others were still stumbling and running. Niu Xixi's crying was deafening, and she must have used up all her energy in crying.
Zhou Youxuan quickly climbed up a tree and hung upside down on a branch. The little lion cub chased him and tried to bite him, but Zhou Youxuan punched him and knocked him down.
However, Wei Wei was still being chased and bitten by a large group of lions, and the lions in front almost bit Wei Wei several times, which was really frightening to watch.
Seeing that he could not catch up with Zhou Youxing, the little lion below had to turn around and continue chasing Zhang Longtong and the others. Zhou Youxing hurriedly got down from the tree and continued running in the direction where Wei Wei had run away.
He did not follow Wei Wei closely, but went around for a distance. Fortunately, there were several patches of grass that were tall enough to cover his figure, otherwise the lions would have returned.
But the lions were chasing Wei Wei relentlessly. There were no other trees nearby except this dead tree. If they wanted to hide, it seemed they could only rely on the bushes.
Zhou Youxuan also blew a whistle to remind him. Wei Wei heard the sound and looked over, and found Zhou Youxuan's figure not far away from him.
Zhou Youxuan waved his arms to signal Wei Wei to come to his left front, but Wei Wei felt that was not ideal.
The lions had originally discovered traces of humans, so they naturally would not let go of their prey. Then the smell of blood on his body made them very excited, and it would be difficult to get rid of him, unless they found a new prey target.
New prey target...
Wei Wei looked around and finally his eyes fell on Wang Ren who was also speeding at the other end.
Because the lion group was chasing Wei Wei, Wang Ren was much more relaxed, but he was also running wildly in order to leave the lion group's activity area as soon as possible.
Maybe it's an opportunity, Wei Wei thought.
Wei Wei turned around and ran towards Wang Ren. The lion group also turned sideways, almost completing a 90-degree turn on the plain.
The direction Wei Wei changed was just the right one to lead the lions away from Zhou Youlan. Zhou Youlan was anxious but also touched. Wei Wei was afraid that he would be in danger, so he changed the direction to lead the lions away.
When Wang Ren saw Wei Wei running towards him, he stopped and changed direction, but how could Wei Wei let him go?
Wei Wei jumped lightly, and when he was mid-air, he pulled out an arrow and aimed at Wang Ren.
Turning around and seeing Wei Wei pulling an arrow at him, Wang Ren gritted his teeth in anger and could only change direction in an S shape to prevent Wei Wei from using him as bait.
Unfortunately, Wei Wei’s arrows never missed their targets.
Wei Wei would not really want Wang Ren's life, he wanted Wang Ren's blood.
So he first shot Wang Ren's leg, and then Wang Ren's arm. Both arrows hit him. The second arrow grazed the outside of Wang Ren's left arm, leaving a bloody mark.
Wang Ren also slowed down because of this. After Wei Wei landed on the ground, he rolled into the grass beside him. He tore off the corner of his clothes to bandage the wound, and then tore off a few plants beside him, chewed them into pieces and applied them to the wound. After covering the wound with cloth, the bloody smell dissipated a lot.
Zhou Youwan saw that Wei Wei disappeared after he fell to the ground, so he gritted his teeth and quickened his pace to run. The lion group that had been chasing Wei Wei, some rushed towards Wang Ren to bite him, while some were still searching for the scent on the spot. After detecting Wei Wei's scent, they dived into the grass to chase and bite him.
In order not to attract too many lions, Wei Wei had to crouch down and move around in the grass, and Zhou Youguan could not find his trace for a while.
The two men were half bent over and groping in the grass. Zhou Youxing parted the grass and came face to face with a lion.
He was stunned for a moment, and his shoulder was suddenly grabbed. The lion that was rushing towards him was kicked by Wei Wei. The two of them took advantage of this gap to run forward. Another lion caught up with them from behind, and the two of them could only run fast in the grass.
In the distance, everyone had gradually shaken off the lions' pursuit. Seeing that they could not catch up, the little lion cubs slowly gave up. However, the situation on Wei Wei's side was serious.
Everyone could see clearly from a distance that Wei Wei and Zhou Youguan were moving around in the bushes. Sometimes they could see them, sometimes they couldn't. But the lion behind them was chasing them closely. Everyone was worried, fearing that they would not be able to escape in time.
However, the plains under their feet were not flat at all. They sprained their ankles several times due to the uneven ground, which slowed them down and allowed the lion behind them to get closer and closer. Wei Wei knelt on one knee, and before the lion could bite them, Wei Wei pressed down Zhou Youxuan's upper body, swept his right leg across Zhou Youxuan's back, kicked the lion in the chest, and kicked it away.
Wei Wei then leaned on Zhou Youxuan's back and spun to his feet. He shot the dart in his hand through the lion's eyes, then pulled Zhou Youxuan forward, only to fall again. The two of them tumbled down the slope, hugging each other.
However, in everyone's eyes, what they saw was that the two of them were attacked by the lion, and then they struggled with the lion. In the end, the lion disappeared, and the people also disappeared.
"No!" the big monkey said anxiously, "They haven't shown up for a long time."
Everyone saw it, and Zhang said in a general way: "They won't..."
Won’t you be bitten by a lion?
"Brother Wei?" Ruan Mengmeng was the first to call out, "Brother Zhou!"
Others also tried to shout, hoping to call out to them, but the results were not optimistic. Zhou Youguan and Wei Wei fell down and never showed up again. It was obvious that something had happened.
"Something happened." Zhang Longtong and the big monkey said together.
The two of them hurriedly jumped off the embankment and ran towards the other end.
The others also followed one after another. Wang Chunqin stood on the embankment and hesitated. He was reluctant to go. First, he was afraid, and second, he was injured. He had used up all his strength in escaping just now, and there was no way he could catch up.
"What are you doing? We just managed to escape from the lions."
“Come back!”
But no one looked back, as if they were all determined to go forward.
Wang Chunqin sighed helplessly, and had to go down the slope with difficulty and limp to catch up.
Wei Wei pressed on Zhou Youxuan, both of them were breathing heavily and gasping for breath, the smell of grass mixed with the faint smell of blood. Zhou Youxuan casually put his hands on Wei Wei's waist, and held Wei Wei's waistline with his palms.
The clothes were turned up, and Zhou Youxuan's palm touched Wei Wei's skin. The warmth collided with the warmth, and Zhou Youxuan felt his breathing become tense.
It's not that they hadn't touched skin before, but Wei Wei's heavy breathing while lying on top of him made his cheeks feel hot.
He quickly let go of his hand and looked at Wei Wei guiltily.
However, Wei Wei did not notice it and turned over and lay on the ground. It was Zhou Youlan who sat up first.
"Are you injured again?" Zhou Youguan knelt beside him to check.
"It's okay." Wei Wei withdrew his hand, "Let's go."
Wei Wei turned over and stood up. Zhou Youling could sense Wei Wei's fatigue. After all, he was a human being, not a machine. Even machines would have to operate for a long time.
He hurried forward and pulled Wei Wei's arm to his shoulder. Wei Wei tried to pull out his hand, but was held down by Zhou Youxuan.
"If you won't let me hold you up, then I'll carry you on my back."
Given Wei Wei's personality, he would definitely be unwilling to be carried on his back.
So Zhou Youlan's threat was effective, and Wei Wei did not struggle again and let Zhou Youlan support him.
The two men walked out of the bushes and saw everyone running towards them. Zhou Youguan hurriedly waved his hand to signal them to go back. Although the lion group was chasing Wang Ren, they didn't go far and were afraid that they would turn back.
When everyone saw that they were fine, they stopped immediately and breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Chunqin fell to the ground exhausted. "I told you, with Wei Wei here, nothing can go wrong."
Zhou Youguan pointed in the direction ahead and asked them to continue walking in that direction. After walking for more than an hour, they finally reached a safe and wide place to gather.
No one dared to rest for too long. After catching their breath, they spontaneously collected firewood to make a fire, built a shelter, and changed the dressings for the wounded.
Wild beasts didn't dare to approach the fire at night, but the wind on the plain was not something that ordinary people could withstand. Fortunately, there was a back slope in this wide area with less weeds, so the wind would not blow too hard upwards.
Zhou Youxuan put Wei Wei in a sheltered place and didn't let him do anything. The wound on Wei Wei's hand kept coming back and never healed. He had to take medicine all the time and no one knew how long he could survive.
We rested here for one night. In the second half of the night, the wind started to get stronger, making it impossible to sleep. We could only huddle together to keep warm.
Zhou Youxuan turned his back to the wind and wrapped Wei Wei with his coat to block the wind. Wei Wei didn't want him to do this. If Zhou Youxuan got sick from the wind, it would be a loss for him.
But Zhou Youguan didn't know what kind of spell had cast upon him. He sat beside him like a mountain, motionless. From time to time, he would look at his arm and give him some strange looks.
It was already late at night when Wang Ren caught up with him. He didn't look well and was in a very disheveled state. His clothes were torn and his arms and feet had many injuries, but none of them were extremely serious. He just had wounds and bloodstains everywhere, and he looked miserable.
He walked straight to the fire, threw his bag aside as he sat down, and didn't look very happy.
The others were a little scared. Although it was Wang Ren who fired the gun that caused the lions to chase and bite them, they didn't dare to make a sound even though they wanted to ridicule him because Wang Ren still had a gun in his hand.
Wang Ren's cold gaze swept across their faces and finally stopped on Wei Wei.
He scoffed but said nothing.
Nothing happened that night. Wang Ren didn't cause any trouble, and Wei Wei didn't pay too much attention to Wang Ren. Everyone just spent the night in a daze.
The next morning, Ke Feiyang and you woke up first. Seeing that everyone was still asleep, they went out to find food.
Niu Xixi was not that scared when two people were traveling together. Besides, they were only looking nearby and would not go far.
It was not until dawn, around eight o'clock, when everyone had packed up, that they realized that Ke Feiyang and Niu Xixi had been gone all morning and had not returned yet.
Zhou Youlan: "What time did they leave?"
I didn't sleep much last night. I only took a nap when it was almost dawn. It has been almost two hours since I woke up, and Ke Feiyang and the others haven't come back yet.
"Around six o'clock." Zhang Longtong's tone was not quite certain.
The big monkey curled his lips and said, "This is strange. Normally, Niu Xixi is the most timid, making a lot of noise all day long. How come he is so brave today and even dares to go out and look for food?"
"That's weird," Zhang Longtong said. "Ke Feiyang is usually very cautious. He hasn't come back for so long. Could something have happened?"
