mall puncture marks left by the bite, Aunt Liu's face slowly darkened."Youngster, I ask you, are you sure it was a snake that bit you Where were you bitten"I definitely wouldn't admit to Li Jing that...They have keen ears, they can hear any rustling within a kilometer radius. I had them cover the rear and keep watch.

We continued walking for over an hour and came across a boulder, more than a meter high, blocking the road.

Yao Yumen said that he rested behind a stone for ten minutes before continuing on his journey. He also took the opportunity to eat something during this break to replenish his energy.

Hidden behind the large stone, Zang was munching on compressed biscuits. Hong Jie drank two mouthfuls of water and passed me the bottle.

"Gulping down some water, I swallowed the dry rations in my mouth and wiped my lips. "Jade Sister, I didn't expect you to have a gun, and shoot so accurately. Could you let me take a look I've never seen a real one before."

"Well, forget it. I don't trust you with that. What if you go rogue"

Usually, people on the street don't want to use this thing. My aim is only average, I'm not as good as my brother.

This is a self-defense tool my uncle gave me, after all, it's better to be safe than sorry.

">

She looked calm and spoke in a relaxed tone.

I couldn't help but be amazed. Anyone who dares to mess with you must be looking for death. One shot to the head and they'd be a pancake face. You're lucky if you don't go out of your way to cause trouble for others.

As for the Xiao Pingtou Yao Wen Ce she mentioned, the only impression he left me with was that he was a quiet person.

It means to be subtly or cleverly concealed.

At that moment, a wind-blown langur suddenly ran in front of us.

A mess of random gestures.

Yao Yumen's face changed.

"Run! Hurry! Those people are catching up, faster than I expected!"

"No, this won't work. We'll be found sooner or later," she said to the mountain baboon in front of her. "Take us to a place nearby where we can hide—a crevice, an underground cave, or even a cave. Hurry!"

This beast seemed to understand human words and ran away after turning its head.

"Hurry up, keep up!"

Thanks to this thing helping us lead the way, we didn't walk for long before we saw a mountain crevice. The crevice was narrow but deep, just wide enough to fit one person.

The three of us huddled in the mountain crevice.

Not long after, voices could be heard coming from outside.

"Jian Ge, these guys are too fast! We rushed over so quickly and still didn't see them!"

Another man chimed in, "Yeah, Jian Ge, these grandkids are really fast! Did you see that huge four-legged snake that just attacked There was a lot of blood on the ground. I smelled it—it was human blood! They must have some casualties, we'll catch up to them eventually!"

Hiding in the mountain crevice, Red Sister and I exchanged a silent glance.

"Only blood Didn't they see anything else"

Where is Dr. An's body

"Could it be..." I swallowed nervously, not daring to speak.

"Come on, keep going forward. These people can't escape."

......

Seeing these people leave, I let out a sigh of relief. Luckily, I wasn't discovered.

Hong Jie said, "That was a good opportunity just now, there was a chance to make a move. Why didn't you shoot With your aim, it should have been easy, right"

Yao Yumen shook his head, "That guy called Jian Ge, it's not strange that you don't know him. This person has been following Xiao Bingtou for the past few years and rarely shows his face in the Jianghu world. Not only is he skilled in martial arts, but he also has a godfather in the Changchun Hui who has told everyone to avoid offending him as much as possible, otherwise it will be very troublesome, so I dare not kill him."

"Oh, who is his godfather Someone he's so afraid of. Give me a name so I can see if I know him."

Yao Yumen looked at Hong Jie, her expression serious as she spoke:

His godfather is currently in a mental hospital. This man's surname is Xie.

Hong Jie's pupils constricted, "Xie... Xie Qirong"

"This person is actually still alive!"he third brother, and I knelt on the ground.Sun Lao San bowed to the incense burner with his hands clasped together. "This plan's future is uncertain, its path fraught with danger. If we die here in t...
