Chapter 42: Escape in panic, prepare
The porcupine leader roared, and the porcupine group all arched their backs, getting ready to attack.
"We can't leave."
Su Bei calmly stared at the porcupine leader not far away.
"Brother Su, how can I help?"
Jiang Xinghe has no fighting power, but he does not intend to sit still and wait for death.
"When the fighting starts later, you leave quickly."
Su Bei already has a plan in mind, but he needs to be extremely careful next time.
"Uncle Gui, if you can survive this time, you will have to listen to me for everything in the future.
If you can't do it, please leave."
Although the porcupine herd seems to be quite oppressive, as long as they can resist the sharp spikes, these porcupines are just casual characters to kill.
Su Bei also understood at this time that if he wanted to successfully reach the headquarters with General Xinghe, he could not blindly listen to others and throw away his own judgment.
"The master asked me to follow the young master and Mr. Su. It is my task to follow them to the commander-in-chief.
I’m sorry to hear Mr. Su’s words.”
Uncle Gui still responded to Su Bei in a calm tone.
It seems that what is happening now is a crisis for Northern Jiangsu, but is just an inconspicuous matter for Uncle Gui.
But Su Bei will not put his hope in Uncle Gui.
If the wrong treasure is pressed, three more lives will be lost in Thirty Mile Forest.
"Coming!"
Su Bei noticed the movement of the porcupine leader's mouth and reacted immediately.
"Strike first to gain the upper hand!"
Although the porcupine group has developed a mind, it is still a beast after all, and will still listen to the leader's opinions.
If the porcupine leader does not give an order, other porcupines will not take other actions.
This is also the reason why Su Bei dared to make bold attempts.
"Emei Five Sword Styles".
Su Bei dismounted and quickly rushed towards the porcupine leader with 40% permanent movement speed.
The porcupine leader did not expect that the human in front of him would dare to take such action, and was delayed for a moment in his reaction.
At this moment, Su Bei swung his sword and stabbed the porcupine leader in the head.
There was no brain explosion. Instead, the sword blade deflected half an inch when it came into contact with the porcupine leader's head.
"It's pine oil!"
In addition to looking for food in the woods every day, the porcupine's only pleasure is to rub against the pine trees and roll in the pits.
A layer of pine oil is applied to the body, and a layer of soil is applied to the pine oil. The layers are stacked on top of each other, almost having the same defensive capabilities as armor made of pig iron.
Su Bei's first sword just now did not break through the defense of pine oil and soil, but it made the porcupine leader panic.
The surprise attack failed.
However, "Emei Five Sword Styles" is a sword style that integrates multiple sets of sword moves, from which five sword styles are proposed.
The failure of the first sword will only cause the subsequent loss of continuity with other swords, and you can still continue to fight.
Su Bei swung four swords in succession, all pointing at the position of the first sword.
Finally, the fifth sword penetrated the defense at the center left of the porcupine leader's head.
A layer of mixture of pine oil and soil flew out with the action of drawing the sword.
A small column of blood splashed out.
However, this attack only reaches the level of breaking down the defense and cannot cause greater damage to the porcupine leader.
For the porcupine leader, Su Bei's attack is more powerful in terms of mental shock than actual damage.
When he saw the blood column in his sight, the porcupine leader howled loudly and backed away, trying to stay away from Su Bei who had caused harm to him.
When the other porcupines heard the porcupine leader's voice, they also stepped back more than ten meters.
After Su Bei used the "Emei Five Swordsmanship", he immediately jumped back, used both feet to run towards the Bai Longju who was waiting on the spot.
"Brother Su!"
"Let's go!"
Jiang Xinghe and Uncle Gui had already walked a few dozen meters away, but Su Bei still felt that it was too slow, so he whipped the donkey with the back of his sword.
After a piercing cry, the donkey finally picked up speed and took Uncle Gui away quickly.
Su Bei and Jiang Xinghe also did not dare to stay here for a long time and hurriedly rode away.
After the porcupine leader howled a few times, he found that his body did not hurt as much as he had imagined, and his screams became much quieter.
"Huh." (Chief, how are you?)
A porcupine that didn't seem to be very aggressive approached the porcupine leader and asked him in a voice.
"Hmph." (Fortunately, my natural defense is amazing, otherwise I would not be able to block the attack just now.)
"Huh." (What to do next?)
"Hmph." (All members mobilized and used spikes to shoot the human with the sword into a hedgehog!)
"Huh." (Yes!)
The three people ran for at least three kilometers, and the donkey's physical strength gradually failed to support it, so they slowed down their escape.
"Brother Su! It was so exciting just now!"
Jiang Xinghe wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and said excitedly to Su Bei.
"Exciting?"
Su Bei's hand holding the sword trembled slightly.
If it weren't for the limited minds of the group of porcupines just now, they all obeyed the words of the porcupine leader and would not do anything without receiving orders.
Just the act of putting himself in danger was enough for the porcupine to fire three rounds of spikes.
"When encountering danger, I did not retreat, but became more courageous as I fought.
Isn’t this kind of exciting behavior when you finally successfully escape from danger?”
Jiang Xinghe watched Su Bei solve the problem, and naturally only this kind of excitement was left, and he did not feel the thrill of life and death in one step.
Su Bei didn't say anything more, but turned to look at Uncle Gui.
"Uncle Gui, if I failed just now, do you have a chance to take Brother General away?"
Two people, one donkey, panting heavily.
But Uncle Gui was like a white and black horse, not even breathing violently.
Facing what just happened, he seemed calm and calm.
If you are not holding back, then you must be fully confident in handling what just happened.
Su Bei said this just because he wanted to ask clearly.
"Yes."
In fact, this answer alone is very vague.
There was no direct response to even Jiangsu Bei’s question.
But Uncle Gui didn't even think about it. He answered casually and this action had already been confirmed by Su Bei.
Uncle Gui just looks like a wizened old man, but he is strong enough to fight against nearly a hundred porcupines.
"Okay, if I can't stop him in the future, I'll rely on you to protect the general."
Su Bei then left the matter of protecting Xinghe to Uncle Gui, and he could save himself a lot of trouble.
"Mr. Su, can I ask a question?"
Uncle Gui's words were indeed beyond Su Bei's expectation.
"Please say."
"If porcupines can hold grudges, will they chase after them?"
A child who is robbed of candy may remember it for several days.
Not to mention a porcupine leader who was insulted by Su Bei's actions.
He will definitely retaliate against Su Bei with a more violent act.
Su Bei naturally knows the answer to this question, but there is currently no better way to deal with the porcupine herd.
Helping Uncle Gui is the best solution now.
