Chapter 42 Vigilance
Chapter 42 Vigilance
Is he eating or not?
Su Guli fled in a hurry on the forest path outside the city.
Night has fallen.It caused a little obstruction to his sight, and behind him, the pursuers were constantly approaching, so that he had to walk through the forest to cause some disturbance to the opponent.
Back to ten hours ago.
Su Guli is in danger of being bloodletted.
Seeing that the bloodletting team continued to advance, Su Guli slipped back into the room while everyone's attention was on the knights and the blood-collected person.
He searched the room for a while and found a rope.
Outside the house, the knights had already walked to the house where Su Guli was. Seeing that the door was closed, they scolded very rudely.After no one answered, the two blood-collecting knights looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward and kicked open the broken wooden door.
A messy and dirty room appeared in front of the two of them.The window was open, and the two walked to the window, and a row of footprints stretched out from under the window.
The two looked at each other, and one reported to the knight commander outside. Then several knights approached the room, jumped out of the window, and started searching.
These houses are crowded and have a strange layout. The knights searched around, but could not find Su Guli, so they had to give up at last.
After the group of knights left for a long time, until the evening, when there was no one outside the house, the door of Su Guli's room was closed with a creak, and Su Guli got up.
He actually hid behind the door all day.
It was already evening when we walked out of the house.
The doors of every household were closed, and Su Guli did not hesitate.I want to leave here.
When leaving this slum, it was amazingly smooth.The slums are next to a medieval city, but the streets are very depressed and the gates are closed. Surprisingly, the city gates are wide open and there are also no guards.
The weird situation didn't last long, and Su Guli knew the reason for everything.Humans walking in twos and threes like zombies suddenly appeared on the street, but if you look closely at them, they are different from zombies. They move more flexibly and have protruding canine teeth in their mouths. When they meet Su Guli, a living human being, The first reaction was not to jump up and bite casually, but to have a clear goal, which was to bite Su Guli's artery.
This is a group of vampires.
And it's still kind of mindless.
……
Su Guli fled along the forest path.
It's not that he never thought about going back to the slums. After all, since the knights came to collect blood during the day, it meant that the people in the slums were protected.
However, it is still unknown whether it is safe to go back and forth, and secondly, he cannot find his way back.The way out obviously turned into a dead end at this moment, and there were more and more vampires in the city, so Su Guli could only run outside the city.
Sure enough, the number of vampires chasing them was getting smaller and smaller, but there were only three or four chasing after them.
There was a fork in the forest path, Su Guli chose one at random, and suddenly heard the sound of water in front of him.
Su Guli looked at his arm, and in a panic in the city, a wound was cut on his arm, and this was also the reason why Su Guli was pursued so hard.
The wound was simply bandaged by Su Guli as early as the beginning of the injury.
It's just that the wound surface was a bit big, and the blood stained the clean cloth that Su Guli had prepared before a little red.
The wound stopped bleeding shortly after the treatment, but the wound and the cloth were stuck together, if it was torn apart forcefully, the wound would be re-teared.
The river is clear and meanders forward.
Su Guli had an idea.
……
Three vampires appeared where Su Guli had stood before.
The smell of blood lingers.
Among the vampires chasing Su Guli, the three vampires still retained some self-awareness. They were even able to communicate with Su Guli, so they were not fooled by Su Guli's little tricks and chased after him.
The very faint smell of blood is moving quickly along the direction of the river, although it is a little weak, it smells very fresh.The three vampires followed the direction of the river without hesitation.
For a long time, until the slight sound of footsteps completely disappeared.
The calm river suddenly fluctuated, Su Guli stood up from the river, the river flowed over his shoulders, Su Guli panted heavily, and while panting, he pulled the rope and walked towards the shore.
In order to prevent drowning, when entering the river, Su Guli tied the rope to a big tree on the bank, and then covered it with leaves and soil. Fortunately, those vampires did not notice the unnaturalness on the ground.
Unexpectedly, the river was not deep.
If it weren't for the night and the brightness of the moon, hiding in such a shallow and clear river, it must have been discovered long ago.
Su Guli untied the rope.
Now he was tired and thirsty and hungry.
He really wanted to sit on the ground and rest, but Su Guli knew that those vampires hadn't gone far.After realizing that he has been fooled, he will definitely chase after him.
As for the wooden stick wrapped with the cloth strips he was carrying, he didn't know how long he could cheat.
The wound was soaked in water and turned white. With the moonlight, Su Guli found a leech stuck to the wet clothes on his trousers. It seemed that the leech followed him into the water.
Fortunately, he tied the trousers tightly before, otherwise, if he was really bitten by a leech, without salt and fire, it would be difficult for him to let go of the wound easily.
The sucker of the leech will paralyze people's perception, and at the same time release some anticoagulant substances, so that the wound bitten by it can continue to bleed.Coupled with that too soft and sticky body, it was a very tricky thing for him who fled.
At this moment, Su Guli was on the edge of a large forest. Did he choose to return to the city-state he had just escaped from with reverse thinking, or did he follow the path and take another fork in the direction different from the direction that those vampires were chasing?
Su Guli paused, of course he chose the third path, going deep into the vast forest after the vast forest path.
Although it was dangerous, it was the least likely path to be chased by those vampires.
After all, when he was chased by a group of vampires just now, he discovered that the farther away from the city and remote places, the fewer the number of those vampires.
……
"Hey, I don't object to you two wanting to "show" your affection, but at least let's see the situation first. "
Just when Luo Kaifeng envied and hated Yu Zhuhao, a familiar voice came from Cheng Maoshi who shared the same dormitory with Su Guli and Yu Zhuhao.
When Luo Kaifeng entered the room, Yu Zhuhao and Cheng Maoshi were sticking to the wall on the same line as the door, which was in a blind spot, so it wasn't until Cheng Maoshi made a sound that Luo Kaifeng realized that there was a person standing in the shadow not far from them.
The lights in the room were lit, and Luo Kaifeng couldn't help laughing when he saw Cheng Maoshi's outfit.
I saw Cheng Maoshi wearing the uniform of the maids in the castle, looking at him with resentment.
"You're laughing." Cheng Mao said unhappily. No matter who suddenly opened his eyes and found that he had become a lowly maid in the middle ages and was molested by the castle's servants, he would be in a bad mood.
As for Luo Kaifeng's attire, he had already seen the "beauty" of "Madame" during the day.
Seeing that Luo Kaifeng was still laughing, it seemed as if someone was finally going to be with him. Cheng Maoshi finally couldn't help knocking on the table, "Ma'am, please pay attention to your manners, your fiancé is still watching you."
They just hurt each other.
At this time, Luo Kaifeng had laughed enough, and started to get down to business.
"I didn't expect you all to be involved here. I thought it was only me and Lao Su who were unlucky." Luo Kaifeng sighed, and Cheng Maoshi and Yu Zhuhao also grasped the key words.
"Su Guli is here?" In this game?
"Yes, I talked to him this morning." Luo Kaifeng was in a hurry to find the mobile phone he lost in the room because the maids swarmed up to him in the morning.
Seeing this, Yu Zhuhao has already returned Luo Kaifeng's cell phone found in the room to Luo Kaifeng.
"If you are all here, where is Sun Xingrui?" Luo Kaifeng asked casually while clicking on the app.
However, unexpectedly, the two were silent this time.
Sun Xingrui entered this reincarnation game together with Yu Zhuhao and Cheng Maoshi, but he didn't pass the novice mission, so there is a high probability that it will be bad luck.
Hearing Cheng Maoshi's words, Luo Kaifeng was stunned, speechless for a while.
After a long time, Luo Kaifeng directly skipped Sun Xingrui's topic and looked at Cheng Maoshi and the others. "Then what's going on now?"
Apart from knowing that he has become the "wife" of the prince of Lao Shizi, he is completely out of state.
……
The forest at night is very dangerous.
Su Guli barely relied on the moon to identify the direction. As the moon rose, Su Guli estimated that he had walked for more than two hours.
The cold moonlight shone on Su Guli through the layers of leaves. Human beings are not nocturnal creatures. In such a dark environment, every step of Su Guli was carefully groping.
He used branches to explore the way, making sure that the way ahead was not the ooze of the swamp, and alarmed the cold-blooded snakes hiding in the grass.
Walking in the wild at night is already a dangerous thing, not to mention that he is in a forest that can't be seen at the moment.
The vision of large predators at night is many times better than that of human eyes.
Once encountered, Su Guli can only become their supper.
However, compared with big cats or canine carnivores, Su Guli is facing another much more serious and deadly threat at this moment.
Hypothermia.
As the name suggests, it is a symptom of lower than normal body temperature.
The body temperature of human beings is around 37 degrees. Different parts and organs have different temperatures, but the differences are not many.
Below 35 degrees, it is hypothermia, which can freeze to death.
This part of the world should be in autumn at this moment, the temperature is very comfortable during the day, but the night is cold in autumn.
Especially under the layers of canopy, the sun's rays are very limited at night in the cold forest.
Su Guli's clothes were still wet.
But the wet clothes on his body were the only protection he could have against the outside world. With such a tight wrapping, at least leeches and small animals such as small snakes could still defend against it.
In addition to the wet clothes, hunger accelerated the loss of his body temperature.
Finally, Su Guli stopped.
Looking up at the moon, the moon has not yet risen to its highest point. It is conservatively estimated that it should be after ten o'clock in the evening.
After escaping to the present, he must have thrown off those vampires long ago.
Su Guli thought so, and knocked on a big tree beside him that couldn't be hugged by one person, and took off the rope that had been hanging around his waist.
After two hours of fleeing, the rope was almost dry.Su Guli found a stone and tied it to one end of the rope. Just as he was about to throw the rope up the treetop and use the rope to climb up the tree to rest for the night, a dog barked not far away.
Especially on this quiet night.
The barking of the dog continued for a few times, and then a man's scolding sound was heard.
"North, be quiet!"
Su Guli was a little stiff for a moment.
Chasing soldiers?
No, those vampires didn't have dogs with them.
Or other vampires?
Su Guli shook the stone in his hand, looked up at the branches of the big tree, and estimated whether he could climb up before being found.It was the last struggle, but in the next second, probably after being reprimanded, the dog barked a bit aggrieved, and the man's tone softened a lot.
"North, stop barking, go to bed early, there is still work to do tomorrow."
Hearing this voice, Su Guli was suddenly excited.
Not a vampire.
Because vampires are nocturnal creatures, they are afraid of sunlight.
This is the rule confirmed by Su Guli during the novice mission of the first game.It was also because of this rule that Su Guli narrowly escaped death several times in the novice missions, and finally survived.
I don't know if this rule applies in this game.
But it's worth a try.
As soon as this idea came out, Su Guli no longer hesitated.
After reconfirming that the whitened wound was not bleeding, Su Guli untied the rope wrapped around the stone. He was just about to put down the stone but after thinking about it, he kept the weapon, which is not considered a weapon. After putting away the rope, Su Guli cautiously moved towards the dog. Walk in the direction of shouts and voices.
After a few dozen steps, the tall trees began to thin out, and another faint fire flashed in front of his eyes. Su Guli quickened his pace, and in the next second, his eyes suddenly opened up.
Finally, the gloomy trees were no longer in front of him, but an open space.
There is a wooden house, a fence, a vegetable field in the fence, a dog barking at him vigilantly, and a man who pushed open the door and came out when he heard the barking of the dog.
"North, I told you to stop barking, Mr. He..." Halfway through the speech, the man who spoke found Su Guli.
The sharp eyes looked at him bluntly, full of vigilance and hostility.
The man looked very young, tall and handsome, with deep and handsome features, short hair, and clothes that looked cheaper and tattered than Su Guli's, but on the contrary, they added a touch of dangerous and wild charm to him.
"Excuse me, can I stay for one night?" Facing the other party's wary gaze, Su Guli said bravely, he was really too cold, and the warm firelight in the room behind the man was too attractive Some.
Hearing this, the man frowned and glanced at Su Guli, but his vigilance was weakened a little. Just when Su Guli thought there was something to be done, he heard the other party say unceremoniously.
"There is no place for you to sleep here, go away." Very rude response.
Su Guli didn't expect to be rejected so unceremoniously, like treating garbage.
Su Guli lowered his head, resisting the urge to leave because of anger, his clothes were still wet, the forest at night was too cold and dangerous, please ask again.
"I can sleep on the living room floor." As long as it keeps him warm.
"And I can pay... money." The tone was a bit hesitant, after all, he was really penniless.It's a big deal, and I will thank you for several times the compensation in the future.
"Even North can't sleep in the house, go away."
North is a dog.
Su Guli heard the man calling the dog before.
Does that mean he's worse than a dog?
Su Guli clenched his fists and was about to leave when suddenly another person came out of the room.
"Xingcheng, what happened?" A middle-aged man with one eye in pajamas came out.
The young man named Xingcheng was about to say something, but the middle-aged man glanced at him, and the latter immediately shut up, but when he saw him appear, the black dog, which was still on guard, immediately whined with its tail between its legs. down.
"You are..." The middle-aged man looked at Su Guli.
"My name is Su Guli. I accidentally got lost here. Can you let me stay overnight?" Because he was rejected before, Su Guli was a little apprehensive and hopeless.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man's gaze stayed on Su Guli's face, and he suddenly smiled.
"Of course, my name is Edfu Prussia." The middle-aged gentleman smiled, "Welcome, young traveler."
……
The interior of the wooden house is much more spacious and luxurious than Su Guli imagined.
Wooden floor, warm fireplace, large soft sofa, tables and chairs, exquisite porcelain and decorations.
At this time, Su Guli also saw Mr. Prussia, the owner of Star City and the house who had spoken ill of him before.
Xingcheng's stature is extremely high. Compared with the figure of a top male model, he is even more inseparable. His muscles are not made of eggs in the gym, but are full of terrifying explosive power, restrained, wild.
His hair is dark brown, but his eyes are pale gold, and like Mr. Prussian with blond hair and blue eyes, he is obviously Caucasian.
Seeing Su Guli's tired face, Mr. Prussia immediately asked Su Guli to go to the room to rest.
The house seemed to have three floors, and the owner of the house, Mr. Prussia, warmly brought Su Guli to a bedroom on the second floor.He also took out clean clothes and changed them for Su Guli.
Su Guli immediately thanked him very much.After getting the clothes, I took off my coat immediately, wiped it with a towel, and put on clean clothes.While changing his pants, Su Guli sat down and turned around, only to find that Mr. Prussia at the door hadn't left.
Prussia glanced at Su Guli's legs, and then smiled politely, "Do you like coffee or black tea?"
"Black tea." He was indeed thirsty, but he wanted to have a good sleep.
It wasn't until the sound of Mr. Prussia coming downstairs that Su Guli was inexplicably relieved. He was about to change his wet pants, but somehow he remembered Mr. Prussia's eyes just now. After thinking about it, he still closed the door.
The room was not big, and it didn't even have a window, but the bed was very soft. Su Guli was lying on the bed, and when he fell asleep in a daze, there was a knock on the door.Open the door, and the goal is the collarbone of Star City.
Looking up, Su Guli realized that there was a chain around Xingcheng's neck.
Like being on a leash.
Su Guli came up with such an idea inexplicably.
But Xingcheng ignored Su Guli, walked directly into the room, put down the fragrant bread and potato broth, and left without saying a word.
Only Su Guli and this steaming dinner were left behind.
Su Guli picked up the spoon, hesitant about this kindness.
Will he eat this dinner or not?
