Chapter 838: Born Weak?
Xie Qiao did not think that they did badly. On the contrary, she thought that they were very brave.
What happened tonight was really strange. Anyone who saw it would probably be scared to death.
For instance, the coachman. Even though he was far away, Xie Qiao could still hear his trembling voice.
However, they were not afraid. They could still chat and make fun of each other and did not encourage the spirits to show off. Xie Qiao was very impressed.
“When I was copying the book before, I didn’t put much effort into it. When I go back, I will definitely read it again a few times. I must memorize it. I cannot forget it.” Yu Xian was quite embarrassed. “Will we be able to rely on this lamp now? How long can it last?”
“There is no need to worry about the spirits, but wild beasts should be guarding nearby. Once the lamp is off, it will be troublesome if they approach together,” Xie Qiao added.
Wild beasts were not as intelligent as humans, so they were easily affected by the aura of the ghouls.
Moreover, the dark energy of the entire mountain was very strong, so the wild beasts must be very irritable and not to be trifled with.
“That’s easy. If they really come at us…” Yu Xian smiled. “At most, we can burn the whole place down! With such a strong wind, we can cook them and have a good meal tomorrow.”
“What if the fire is too strong and blows somewhere else?” Feng Yingying shook her head quickly.
“I don’t have many crossbows and arrows. I can deal with some difficult ones in a while, after that… There’s nothing I can do.” Xie Qiao was also helpless.
She could deal with the ghouls, but it was difficult for her to fight more when she only had a pair of fists.
She could not deal with the ghouls while dealing with the wild beasts.
Moreover, it was impossible to deal with the ghouls here. They could fly and run, so it was impossible to catch them all at once.
She had to find their nest.
There was always a reason why the ghouls stayed in one place.
If she could not find the source, she could only capture a few ghouls. The rest would still stir up trouble in this place.
Yu Xian could also sense the seriousness of the situation. She nodded seriously and said, “If there are any powerful beasts, leave them to me. I can shoot very accurately.”
“You take the blade, I’ll take the bow, and Yingying will be responsible for watching the fire. The Yin wind cannot be extinguished, but the Yang wind can. Therefore, we must try our best to avoid the possibility of the fire being extinguished in advance,” Xie Qiao added.
Yu Xian and Feng Yingying listened obediently.
Feng Yingying’s heart was pounding, and her hands were trembling a little. However, because she still had people by her side, she was not particularly afraid.
Yu Xian… did not show any reaction on her face.
Not long after Xie Qiao finished speaking, there was indeed a sound in the grass.
The medicinal powder prevented many snakes, insects and rats from coming close, which reduced a lot of trouble.
However, the three of them saw a pair of green lights vaguely.
Why was there a wolf…
Yu Xian’s heart trembled.
Xie Qiao had said that she was holding a short blade mainly to prevent some wild beasts from charging over. If the wild beasts were outside the range of the lamp, she could not rush out to attack them.
“How about I take the bow first…” Yu Xian turned her head and said to Xie Qiao.
However, before she could finish her words, she heard a whoosh, and Xie Qiao shot out an arrow.
With a strange sound, the wolf collapsed to the ground!
Yu Xian and Feng Yingying’s expressions froze, especially Yu Xian, who felt that the arrow just now was scarily accurate…
“You can even use a crossbow… I thought you’re weak?!” Yu Xian was stunned.
Ever since she taught Xie Pinghuai, that kid had often whispered in her ear, saying that his eldest sister was born gentle and dignified, and that she was weak and could not even use the slightest bit of force…
It was said that Xie Qiao could not be scared in the slightest.. She was a girl who would faint at any time!
