Chapter 7 Crisis
Wu Ya's whole body was shaking, and her legs were kicking convulsively as if in spasm, trying desperately to move backwards.
The huge bee's sharp stinger shone with a cold luster. The scarlet mark on the tip grew bigger and bigger in Wu Ya's eyes. The increasingly strong stench made her almost vomit and her stomach churned.
It hurts, so much!
Disgusting, so disgusting!
Go away, go away, don't come over here!
Wu Ya was so scared that tears streamed down her face, but her hands and feet were powerless, like a fish thrown onto the shore, she could only struggle helplessly.
Is she going to die?
The string that was stretched to the limit finally broke with a clang.
Wu Ya’s eyes went dark and she passed out.
……
"Bang~" At the critical moment, Xiao Xiao, who happened to arrive, didn't have time to think too much and smashed the book in his hand hard. He didn't expect anything and just wanted to slightly hinder the movement of the monster. Unexpectedly, he knocked the monster out.
Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment.
Then he quickly hurried to Wu Ya, squatted down and checked her. Fortunately, she had just fainted.
"Whoa~" A sharp and piercing sound like nails scratching glass suddenly rang out. Xiao Xiao's hairs all over his body stood up, his eyes flickered, and it felt like a knife was twisting his head fiercely, causing a splitting headache.
Xiao Xiao managed to steady himself, but everything in front of him was still blurry.
Although it looked like an enlarged version of a bee, its call was different from the low buzzing of ordinary bees. Instead, it was so sharp and piercing, as if endless thick darkness was spreading out before the eyes, oozing with an ominous blood color.
Xiao Xiao endured the discomfort in his body, slowly stood up, and looked up.
Perhaps the previous attack made the monster a little cautious, and for a moment he was not in a hurry to attack again.
This gave Xiao Xiao some buffer time.
You know, he didn't understand what was going on before, and now he doesn't have the book in his hand.
Xiao Xiao tried to remain calm, his hands at his sides were stiff and even cramped, veins were bulging, and his fingertips were pale and bloodless.
"Bang-bang-bang-" The heart was beating disorderly, and the sound was so loud that it made people panic.
……
Xiao Xiao clenched his fists. The slight stinging sensation of his nails digging into the flesh made him stare at the "bee's" eyes, paying attention to its every move.
The scarlet eyes flashed a cold light in the night.
A huge figure stood on a high branch, and the crescent moon cast a pale blue light, outlining a thick shadow.
An unpleasant fishy smell kept drilling into Xiao Xiao's nostrils.
It was a rotten smell, like the smell of corpses deposited in a swamp, mixed with a hint of slippery sweetness, cold and sticky, and it was so disgusting that Xiao Xiao almost vomited.
……
Xiao Xiao didn't expect things to turn out like this. Even if he wanted to come to the grove, he would only go during the day.
I didn't expect the plan to change.
That night, the eldest brother, on the pretext that he had been frightened, generously invited everyone in the dormitory to go out for a better meal.
When I came back, I happened to see a few girls wandering outside the woods in a panic.
The big guys approached with sympathy and care for the lady.
Upon asking, they found out that one of their companions had run into the woods and disappeared, and they were afraid to go in.
You know, the grove is now a forbidden area in the school, and the police blockade was not lifted until the afternoon. If it weren't for Wu Ya, they would not have come here.
And Wu Ya acted a little strange just now, so they were worried and scared.
When he was debating whether to ask the boys in his class or the security guards patrolling the school for help, he met Xiao Xiao and the others. He immediately acted like a drowning man grabbing at a straw and begged them to go in and help find his companions.
"Uh~" Zhang Bo looked at the eerie and strange grove with some hesitation, but when he saw a few faces that were about to burst into tears, he immediately patted his chest and said that he would leave it to them.
Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng patted their chests louder than each other.
"Old Third, what are you daydreaming about?"
"You're not scared anymore, are you?"
"Don't be afraid, brother will protect you, haha."
Xiao Xiao did not react, but just stared at the grove.
He didn't see that at this moment, a faint golden light flashed in his eyes. In his vision, a faint black gas was floating above the grove, baring its fangs and claws, revealing an unsettling deathly aura.
This is……
"Hey, Third Brother, why are you so serious?"
"What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
"You're not really scared, are you?"
"It's okay." Xiao Xiao retracted his gaze, "After we go in, let's search separately, it will be faster this way."
"it is good."
Originally, Xiao Xiao wanted to stop the boss and the others from going in. After all, the current grove gave him a bad feeling.
However, it was hard to find a reason, and he was also worried that if time dragged on, the girl would be in danger.
He was still impressed by the photos taken in the morning.
Moreover, he had just noticed that the distribution of the black gas was uneven, and he had a hunch that the place where the black gas was the thickest should be where the girl was.
In that case, all we need to do is let the boss and the others avoid that direction.
As for what he would encounter if he were single, to be honest, he didn't think too much about it.
Of course, he was not the kind of person who would sacrifice himself for others, especially when it was someone he didn't know. If it was the boss and the others, they would have different opinions. If it wasn't for the changes in his body, he would never have made this choice.
It just seems that at the moment, among the people present, he is the most suitable person to go there.
Finally, Xiao Xiao told a few girls to find the security guard before following the boss and the others into the woods.
After entering, Xiao Xiao rejected the suggestion of going in groups of two, chose the direction where the black energy was the thickest, and went there alone.
He no longer had the confidence to protect anyone.
He had no intention of telling anyone his secret.
……
Xiao Xiao didn’t know whether the current situation was better or worse than expected.
At least he could make the monsters that were hit by a book afraid of him, which was the best thing.
He should really thank the classmate who asked him to take the book back, otherwise he would not know how to stop the monster from attacking the girls.
But, what now?
Although the monster was a little cautious about him, it seemed that he had no intention of retreating.
The eerie eyes never left him.
The sticky malice made him feel suffocated.
Xiao Xiao is now in a difficult situation.
He has no means against monsters.
Now, he has no useful weapons at hand.
How to do?How to do?
Drops of sweat flowed down Xiao Xiao's cheeks.
"Whoa~" The monster seemed a little impatient, pacing back and forth on the branch, but his eyes never left Xiao Xiao's surroundings.
In the silent night, the monster's night owl-like cry was extremely creepy.
The scarlet eyes were so thick that bright red blood seemed to be flowing out.
The faint flickering phosphorescence, against the pale moonlight, added a bit of fright.
Xiao Xiao's brain was working so fast that he even felt a burst of pain due to the overload.
damn it!
There is still no solution!
All he could do now was to delay as much as possible.
Haha, it's weird that a hero saves a beauty to this extent.
Sure enough, it’s not that easy to be a hero.
