Chapter 413 The epidemic is rampant (11)
Xia Yueke looked at the cave full of things and was very satisfied. "Okay, your cave is very hidden, so let's put these things here for now. We can come back to get them later. Now, do you have a few other better caves? Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Let's put these supplies somewhere else."
Lu Chunlai thought for a while, "Yes, there is, but it's a bit far from here, and it's not very convenient to get there. We still need to walk for another half an hour. At that time, I was also very hesitant. Which of the two caves should I put it in? The other one is very steep and not as convenient, so I chose this one."
Xia Yueke curled her lips, "Steep? Wouldn't that be better? Without further ado, let's set off now."
The three of them continued on their journey, but this time, they didn't seem to be so successful. When they were halfway there, Cangwu's ears moved and his eyes stared vigilantly at the surrounding bushes.
Although it was noon at this time, the dark forest was still a dark forest. The trees were so tall that even the sunlight could not penetrate. Only a little light was reflected from the shadows of the trees.
It was pitch black all around, and the slightest sound was amplified countless times.
Lu Chunlai also looked at it with some feeling. She just felt that several pairs of eyes seemed to be staring at them.
It couldn't be an illusion. Her sixth sense was very accurate and had helped her win many games on the court. Lu Chunlai looked at Cangwu calmly. The two looked at each other, and Cangwu nodded imperceptibly.
Lu Chunlai continued to pretend nothing had happened and continued chatting with Xia Yuke. Among the three of them, Xia Yuke was probably the only one who felt safe around her. She was very relaxed and kept talking about this and that with Lu Chunlai.
He asked about my previous resume, age, and even how many times I had been in relationships.
Although Xia Yuke felt that Lu Chunlai was acting strangely, she just thought that she was embarrassed by her question. Cangwu was still the same as before, not very talkative, but he was a little closer to her.
Xia Yueke was very confused. Could it be that something happened that she didn't know about?
Perhaps because Xia Yueke's performance confused those people, they still did not move, as if they wanted to see where they put the food, and then take it for themselves after they left.
Of course, Cangwu would not give the other party this possibility. He stopped when he reached a relatively empty grove of trees.
Xia Yueke was pulling Lu Chunlai forward when she felt Cangwu's movements and turned back in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Lu Chunlai blocked Xia Yueke behind him without saying a word, while Cangwu had already started fighting.
He jumped into a bush and pulled the man out. The others saw that they were exposed and no longer hid. Instead, they rushed out one by one. Eight or nine people surrounded the three people.
They were all players, still wearing the clothes they had on the first day, and not wearing animal skins. After playing the game for twelve or thirteen days, these people's clothes were covered with a layer of dust.
The leader was a tall man with a fierce look on his face. He looked at the large packages on the three people's backs and smiled wickedly. "As long as you leave the things behind, we can spare your lives. How about it?"
Cangwu didn't say anything, but glanced at him with disdain in his eyes.
A younger brother beside the tall man spat on the ground when he saw this. "Bah! Brother Li, why are we still being polite to them? Why don't we just take the things directly? And there are two women here! I haven't had a good time since I came to the game. The NPCs in the game are not fun at all!"
Brother Li also restrained his smile and clenched his fists, making a creaking sound. "Okay, this kid, I really don't like him. I originally wanted to wait until they hid the food and then let them go, but I didn't expect this kid to find us. In this case, we can't let him off easily!"
Cangwu's eyes were as fast as lightning, and his whole body exuded a cold aura, as if he had merged into this dark forest. Facing the group of greedy players in front of him, he was not afraid at all, and his expression did not change at all.
I saw him moving like a ghost, instantly approaching the spitting little brother.
Before the little brother could react, Cangwu had already launched a fierce side kick, accurately kicking him in the abdomen.
My younger brother flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, and screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
Seeing this, Brother Li roared and rushed forward with the others.
Cangwu was calm and dodged left and right. Every move he made was accompanied by the sound of bones crackling and the players' cries of pain.
His fists were as fast as lightning, hitting the enemy's nose, chin, and chest, and each move was fatal.
A tall player swung his fist at Cangwu, but Cangwu dodged sideways, grabbed his arm, and threw him to the ground with a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw, leaving a shallow pit on the ground.
While Cangwu was fighting fiercely with the enemy, Lu Chunlai held Xia Yueke tightly behind him, scanning the surroundings vigilantly to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
She bent her legs slightly, ready to attack or defend at any time, and held a sharp stone in her hand. It was a "weapon" she picked up while collecting supplies in the dark forest.
Although Xia Yueke was protected by Lu Chunlai, she was not idle. Her eyes rolled around, quickly observing the surrounding environment.
Suddenly, she found a pile of dry branches not far away and came up with an idea.
She quietly broke free from Lu Chunlai's protection, quickly ran to the branches, squatted down, and while paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, she deftly gathered the branches together.
When Lu Chunlai saw Xia Yuke out of his protection, he was shocked and was about to rush over to pull her back, but was blocked by a player.
The player had triangular eyes, a flat nose, and a lewd smile on his face. He reached out to grab Lu Chunlai.
Lu Chunlai's eyes turned cold, and he smashed the stone in his hand towards his head. The player subconsciously raised his hand to block. Lu Chunlai took the opportunity to kick him in the crotch. The player screamed, covered his lower body, and rolled on the ground.
"Ah—bitch!"
However, the louder he shouted, the more ruthlessly Lu Chunlai beat him.
At this time, Xia Yueke had already piled up the branches. She took out the tinder and flint she had collected earlier from her pocket and quickly rubbed them together to make a fire.
After a while, flames jumped up and Xia Yueke threw the burning branches hard at the enemy.
Those players were being beaten back by Cangwu, and suddenly they saw burning branches flying towards them, and their formation was immediately thrown into chaos.
Some were busy dodging, some were hit by branches, their clothes were set on fire, and they cried for their parents.
Cangwu took advantage of this opportunity and launched an even more fierce attack. He was like an empty space, and with a few leaps and drops, he knocked all the remaining enemies to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Brother Li turned around and tried to escape. Cangwu rushed forward and kicked him from behind, then stepped on his back and said coldly:
"Still want to run?"
Brother Li lay on the ground, unable to move, and could only beg for mercy.
