"Wow, this is your Central Plains' spell? It's really amazing! "
Seeing this, A Xiang's face was filled with reverence as she sighed with emotion.
A Xiang's adoration made Mao Xiaoting feel a little elated: "This is nothing … It's just a fire curse! "
With that, she pushed the fire towards the wood in the pit, and the wood was instantly set ablaze. The orange flame not only warmed the crowd, but also dispelled the darkness in the cave.
Seeing this, the uneasiness in the two women's hearts had lessened by quite a bit, while Xiang Anjie began to wrap the python's body around the fire to roast it. At the same time, he also tied up the two caught fish with a wooden stick and stuck them beside the fire.
Not long later, accompanied by the sound of sizzling meat, a faint aroma of barbecue drifted out from the cave. Mao Xiaoting and A Xiang, who were already starving, smelled this smell and gulped their saliva down.
"Alright, let's eat the grilled fish first, the snake meat will probably have to roast it a little longer. After all, there might be parasites in the snake's body, and if we don't rely on high temperatures for a long time, it will be difficult to destroy these things."
With that, Xiang Anjie passed the two grilled fish s over to the two women in front of him.
After receiving the grilled fish, A Xiang and Mao Xiaoting looked at each other. In the end, the two no longer hesitated and bit onto the grilled fish.
Ka-cha! *
Accompanied by a crispy sound, the two of them took a bite off a large piece of the grilled fish that had been roasted until it was yellow and black, and started to chew.
Looking at the satisfied and happy expressions on their faces, Xiang Anjie's heart warmed. Although today's situation could be said to be extremely rough, no matter what, they were now safe. This was the best outcome.
Right at this time, the snake meat s that were roasting the python were almost done. Xiang Anjie used his fingers to pick up the skin of the python, easily peeling off the skin, exposing the tender roasted snake meat s on the outside, making them look extremely delicious. As a result, the two women who had just finished eating the fish no longer hesitated, not caring about the fact that the snake meat s hands were still hot, they directly stuffed them into their mouths.
It had to be said that being able to eat this kind of game under these special circumstances was a very rare thing. Although there was no basic seasoning like salt, because the snake blood itself was a little salty, the current roasted snake meat was still very tasty.
Just like this, after spending around half an hour, the half of the python's snake meat was engulfed into their stomachs. After eating their fill, they also began to discuss the next plan with Xiang Anjie.
"Right!"
After drinking a mouthful of water, Mao Xiaoting looked at Xiang Anjie and asked: Is there any news of Ling Er? Aren't you able to sense her location? Why can't I do it now? "
Xiang Anjie shook his head: "Just now, when I went out to look for water, I tried to search for her trace, but I don't know if it's because of the dense forest, but after sensing for a long time I still couldn't find her presence. Also, I used to use phones to locate her a lot of times, but in a forest where phones don't have any signals, locating her is obviously even more impossible."
"Then what should we do? Wasn't he going to look for her? Night has already fallen. Would it be dangerous for Ling Er to be alone in this mountain? "
Looking at the pitch-black cave outside, A Xiang asked worriedly.
Xiang Anjie sighed: "It's useless to worry about her now, it's better to focus on dealing with the difficulties in front of us."
After saying that, Xiang Anjie pulled the stone slab that was in front of the cave entrance forward, so that others would not be able to see the light of the flames and their positions.
"A Xiang, you should be able to control the parasite on your body to do the night watch, right?" Although A Xiang's Gu was not able to be used for attack directly due to it being suppressed, but Xiang Anjie felt that a simple observation should be enough.
A Xiang nodded her head: "Don't worry Big Brother Xiang, this job will be left to me!"
With that, A Xiang closed her eyes and sank into silence.
A dozen seconds later, she slowly opened her eyes. "No problem. I've already set up the Gu within a three meter radius. If there's any movement, I'll be able to know the situation as soon as possible."
"Alright then."
Xiang Anjie nodded his head: "It's getting late, then let's rest. We'll get up early tomorrow morning, and then we'll think of a way to take care of these guys."
After he finished speaking, Xiang Anjie leaned against the stone wall and closed his eyes. And after A Xiang and Mao Xiaoting looked at each other, they curled up their bodies and lied down on the ground.
After all, they had been busy the entire day, so they really needed a good night's rest. However, at this moment, both of them felt touched.
And this gratitude, came from Xiang Anjie.
It was needless to say that Mao Xiaoting had once again felt that Xiang Anjie was an extremely important existence to his. If not for him repeatedly extending a helping hand to his when he was in danger, he probably would have died a long time ago. If not for him, he would not have been able to drink the sweet spring water from the mountain or taste the delicious roast meat after encountering this situation.
The mountains might be freezing late at night, but in this small cave, it was as warm as spring.
Perhaps this was the person he had always been looking for!
On the other side, A Xiang had the same feeling.
As a girl who had seen a lot of things, yet was forced to stay in a remote village, on one hand, she yearned to taste the sweetness of love, but on the other hand, she knew that she didn't have the right to do so. In such a dilemma, her young heart, which yearned for true love, might have died a long time ago.
But today, after encountering such danger, after seeing Xiang Anjie's courageous and scheming, and his side that was worth depending on, something in her heart had already begun to stir.
Who in the world doesn't love heroes? What about a hero that could save him from disaster?
When he thought of this, even though he was nestled in a small cave, the corners of A Xiang's mouth still slowly revealed a sweet smile …
"Ugh …"
Not long after, Xiang Anjie opened his eyes. Only now did he realise that the fire in the cave had already extinguished, but he himself did not feel any sort of coldness. He looked outside the cave entrance and saw a ray of light shining in.
Daybreak?
Seeing this, Xiang Anjie planned to call out to the two of them, but when he lowered his head, he was shocked!
A Xiang and Mao Xiaoting were currently like two little kittens. One on each side, with their soft and warm bodies nestled next to him, and their heads resting on her lap. At such a close distance, she seemed to be able to hear their breathing, sense their heartbeats, and smell the faint scent of their bodies.
Uh!
Seeing this, Xiang Anjie felt a burst of awkwardness.
After hesitating for a while, he decided to get up and change directions. However, the moment he moved, the two women simultaneously opened their eyes.
Only now did they realize that they were lying on Xiang Anjie's body.
Instantly, the two women sat up at the same time, but they found that the other was in the same condition as them.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the cave was a bit awkward. Mao Xiaoting and A Xiang looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Seeing that, Xiang Anjie could only let out a cough, "Err … Alright, it's daybreak. We should head out too! "
"Ah, yes …"
Mao Xiaoting pretended to be calm and nodded her head: "After we finish eating and drinking, it's time to take care of those guys!"
"That's right!"
A Xiang's expression was also calm: "Suo Yin, this bastard, I've already given him a chance before, but I never thought that he would bring an outsider to our Miao Family's mountains and do whatever he wants, I will definitely not let him off!"
"Alright, since everyone is of the same opinion, let's set off!"
With that said, Xiang Anjie prepared to push open the cave entrance's stone slab and walk out.
But right at this moment, A Xiang who was at the side suddenly exclaimed: "Not good!"
"What's wrong?"
Mao Xiaoting was startled.
Xiang Anjie who was in front of him immediately frowned, because even if A Xiang did not say anything, he knew:
Those guys are here!
With his sharp hearing, he could already hear the conversation between Suo Yin and the rest, "Fuck, these people are actually hiding here, this time I will make sure that they have nowhere to run. Masters, I will be counting on you two …."
"These guys have discovered us!"
"What?"
Hearing that, Mao Xiaoting was shocked: "Then what do we do now?"
Xiang Anjie was quiet for two seconds. "If we continue to stay here, we will just have to wait for death. If we want to escape, we will have to put our lives on the line, listen to my orders, and rush out together to eliminate this group."
"Yes sir!"
As a result, Xiang Anjie pressed both hands on the stone floor and at the same time held his breath as he listened to the footsteps of the people outside that were getting closer and closer.
"You two, surround us from the left. You two, surround us from the right, and the rest will rely on you to charge in from the front. Master and master, you two will be in charge of defending and protecting me."
Hearing Suo Yin's words, a group of people all nodded their heads. Then, following Suo Yin's plan, they split up and approached the cave in front of them.
As time passed, the group approached the cave. They didn't know what was going on inside, so they could only be cautious and prepared to face any unexpected accidents.
Finally, the group of people arrived at the cave entrance.
Just as the mercenary who was in the middle was about to open up the stone slab blocking the entrance, the stone slab suddenly flew towards him!
The mercenary, who was caught off guard, could not dodge in time and was struck in the chest by the stone slab. The strength contained in the stone slab far exceeded his expectations and instantly shattered his ribs.
"Pfft!"
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, the mercenary fell to the ground and gulped.
