Sheng Yanxuan squinted his eyes slightly and scanned the surrounding area, but found nothing unusual.
"Hide quickly, there are nearly fifty people coming." Li Zhao moved his ears and said in a deep voice.
When Sheng Yanxuan heard these words, his pupils shrank sharply. He pulled Chu Qingxue and quickly hid in the bushes, clinging to the trees and holding his breath.
Li Zhao lay on the tree trunk, staring coldly in the direction of the visitor.
A group of burly men led by Fifth Brother came over. Everyone patrolled around with a gun in hand, appearing very cautious.
Sheng Yanxuan felt the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, and he quietly opened some leaves to observe the situation outside.
Li Zhao was seen leaning against a tree with a dagger in his hand, the black blade glowing with a cold light.
Sheng Yanxuan gestured towards Li Zhao and asked him how many bullets were left in the gun.
Li Zhao made an eight sign, which meant that there were only eight rounds left at most.
Sheng Yanxuan gently nodded and signaled him to continue hiding and waiting for the opportunity to move.
Chu Qingxue held her breath and held Sheng Yanxuan's hand tightly with her little hand, for fear that she would be alone.
As a thin girl, her chances of escaping from these tough men were really low, but in order to survive, Chu Qingxue had to stay well by Sheng Yanxuan's side.
But she was also worried, could Sheng Yanxuan really survive safely?
In Chu Qingxue's impression, Sheng Yanxuan had never started a fight. The bodyguards around him helped to deal with the enemies, and he never seemed to participate in internal struggles. He always sat aside and watched like a king.
Can he... really protect himself?
Chu Qingxue bit her lip, with strong worry in her eyes.
Sheng Yanxuan felt the strength of Chu Qingxue's grip on his arm, and glanced sideways at her, with a soft light flashing in his eyes.
"Don't worry, no one can hurt you as long as I'm here." He said softly, his warm breath spraying on her ears, making her cheeks blush.
Chu Qingxue was stunned for a moment, then forced a smile.
"Hey, Sheng Yanxuan, why don't you get out of here quickly! I'm going to let you taste what life is worse than death today!"
After hearing this, Sheng Yanxuan turned around and made a silencing gesture towards Chu Qingxue.
Fifth Brother put his hands on his hips and shouted towards the forest, with a bloodthirsty sneer on his lips.
"Sheng Yanxuan, you coward! If you have the ability, come out to me!"
"Damn it!" Fifth Brother was furious.
This bastard, does he still expect to be able to escape from him?
Sheng Yanxuan heard his curse and smiled mockingly.
Fifth brother looked at the dark forest, feeling an inexplicable fear in his heart. This strange silence made him feel uncomfortable all over.
He swallowed, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he was very worried.
Could it be that...Sheng Yanxuan really ran away?
No, absolutely not!
His plan was so thorough, how could Sheng Yanxuan have the courage to escape? He must have been hiding, waiting for rescue.
After thinking about this clearly, he immediately shouted to the surroundings: "Be careful and look for that little coward!"
"Yes!" everyone replied in unison.
Fifth Brother felt more and more uneasy. He glanced at the surrounding environment and kicked the tree trunk hard.
"Go through all these bushes and dig out that little beast!"
After receiving the order, everyone dispersed and began to look for traces of Sheng Yanxuan and Chu Qingxue. The fifth brother stood alone, pacing around anxiously, his face turning the color of pig liver.
This damn brat dares to play with him. If he catches him, he will peel off his skin, beat his tendons, and then throw him into a frying pan and fry him.
Sheng Yanxuan and Chu Qingxue hid in the lush grass, listening to the footsteps gradually coming from outside, and felt very anxious.
Chu Qingxue clutched Sheng Yanxuan's sleeve tightly, her face was full of nervousness and fear, and even her breathing became rapid.
The shadow of a strong man suddenly came into Chu Qingxue's eyes, and she gasped in fright.
Sheng Yanxuan felt her trembling hand and held her hand tightly.
Chu Qingxue took advantage of the situation and held Sheng Yanxuan's hand. She pursed her lips tightly and her eyes were a little moist, but she stubbornly refused to shed tears.
Sheng Yanxuan looked at her pale face, stretched out his other hand to touch her head, and patted the back of her hand comfortingly.
The next second, the strong man turned his head and found that Sheng Yanxuan and Chu Qingxue were here. He opened his mouth to speak. Sheng Yanxuan quickly pulled out the gun in his hand and pointed it directly at the strong man.
When the strong man saw the gun in his hand, his eyes widened in horror. He just begged for mercy and opened his mouth to scream.
Sheng Yanxuan stepped forward and covered his mouth, knocking him down with a swift movement.
"Bang--"
Sheng Yanxuan threw the strong man to the ground, then squatted down to check and confirm that he had no ability to fight back. Sheng Yanxuan breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.
The current situation is to delay time and ensure the safety of those around us.
He looked at Chu Qingxue, who was raising her head and looking up at him.
Sheng Yanxuan's cheeks were still stained with mottled blood, making his face even more pale and bloodless.
Seeing her dull look, Sheng Yanxuan reached out and touched her head, showing a gentle and doting smile to comfort her.
It was the first time that Chu Qingxue saw Sheng Yanxuan's face covered in blood. The look in his eyes at this moment was bloody and cruel, which made her wince and her heart beat wildly.
Sheng Yanxuan noticed Chu Qingxue's expression, suppressed his smile and walked to her side, holding her hand and protecting her in his arms.
Now we can only take advantage of the darkness to slowly get rid of these people one by one, and then escape.
Chu Qingxue followed Sheng Yanxuan to the dense bushes, and the two of them hid behind the bushes.
Chu Qingxue looked at the fight in front of her and felt dizzy, her legs were weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
"Close your eyes." Sheng Yanxuan took Chu Qingxue into his arms and coaxed softly.
"I……"
"Be good." Sheng Yanxuan patted her shoulder and comforted her.
Chu Qingxue took a deep breath, tried hard to control her panic and fear, closed her eyes and leaned on Sheng Yanxuan's chest.
Li Zhao and Chu Haochen on the other side don't have such a warm scene. Li Zhao is agile and can hit one with one punch. Chu Haochen behind him is worse than a rookie and can't do anything. He can't even hold a dagger.
My hands started to tremble, let alone the movements to protect myself.
Seeing Li Zhao's fierce look, Chu Haochen swallowed his saliva and secretly hated him.
Damn it, they are all men, why is there such a big gap?
Suddenly, a strong man appeared behind Chu Haochen. He turned his head and looked at the strong man. He was so frightened that he raised his dagger and struck him on the head, but it only cut his face.
The strong man showed an excited and angry smile, raised his gun, aimed at Chu Haochen's head, and pulled the safety catch.
Chu Haochen panicked and swung the dagger in his hand quickly, but he lost his accuracy because of his panic. The dagger grazed the strong man's arm, leaving a long blood mark.
