idle mistress

Chapter 24 Crow's Mouth

Xu Weiqiu said unconvinced: "You should take care of yourself, right?" Who do you look down on? You must know that she was an expert rock climber in her previous life.

The two of them stopped talking and began to climb down. Zhao Yan was the first to land on the ground. When he saw that although Xu Weiqiu was thin, his hands and feet followed his footsteps to the ground swiftly, his eyes could not help showing a hint of approval.

However, before the two of them had time to be happy, they heard shouts from behind:

"who?"

"Boss, did someone run away?"

Immediately, a sharp arrow was shot towards the direction of the two of them. The arrow narrowly brushed past Xu Weiqiu's ear, and she suddenly felt a tingling sensation in her scalp.

Seeing this, Zhao Yan quickly stepped forward and grabbed her hand, the two of them looked at each other, before they had time to think, they ran towards the woods...
-
It was night, everything was silent, and in the darkness, two figures were walking forward with difficulty in the jungle.

Walking to a dense undergrowth, the branches and leaves hurt his face, Xu Weiqiu looked up at the sky, feeling a little uneasy in his heart; under the situation of pursuers, the two lost their way in the deep mountains in a panic, It has been nearly two hours now, but still not going out.

The moonlight was sparse, and only the figure of the person in front could be vaguely seen. Xu Weiqiu saw the person in front buried her head and walked forward without paying attention to herself behind her. She felt a little scared and couldn't help speeding up her pace.

However, no matter how hard she tried, her legs were shorter than others, so she couldn't catch up. As she walked, she nervously called out: "Master Zhao, can't you wait for me?"

Zhao Yan turned around. Although she couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, she also knew that his face would not look good at the moment. As expected, he heard him say impatiently: "Can't you go faster? Look I don’t know when I can get out of this ghost place, and I’m still dawdling.”

Xu Weiqiu felt angry when he heard this, and couldn't help saying: "Is it my fault? Who led the way?"

"You can go by yourself if you have the ability, you don't have to follow me."

After saying this, Zhao Yan left her and walked forward without looking back.

Seeing this, Xu Weiqiu couldn't help feeling a little remorse in his heart, knowing the temperament of this young master, why should he provoke him.

She knew very well that in this barren mountain and wild ridge, it was no fun to be alone.So he didn't dare to complain any more, and followed Zhao Yan step by step.

After walking for a long distance, the distance between the two became farther and farther. Zhao Yan looked back, wondering if his conscience had noticed, and finally stopped.

Seeing this, Xu Weiqiu quickly stepped up to him, seeing that he still didn't intend to move on, he couldn't help asking: "My lord, what's the matter?"

"I'm tired, should I rest here?"

"Ah...? Here?" Xu Weiqiu looked around: "Is it safe here? I'm not afraid of wild animals attacking in the middle of the night." As soon as she spoke, she heard the roar of a wild animal in the distance, Xu Weiqiu suddenly silence.

Zhao Yan looked at her and said three words with his mouth: "Crow's mouth!"

There was no other way, the two of them had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue walking. After walking for some time, Xu Weiqiu was so tired that she felt that her legs were no longer listening to her. Rest your feet!"

"Can't bear it anymore?"

She didn't have the energy to answer, and she kept panting with her hands on her legs.

Zhao Yan looked around and said, "Okay, let's rest here, you watch over, I'll sleep for a while."

Xu Weiqiu was stunned on the spot: "What do you mean you sleep for a while and I'll watch over you, if you're tired alone, I'm not tired."

"So much nonsense, don't forget that I am the master and you are the servant, and it is your duty to watch over me."

Hearing this, Xu Weiqiu curled his lips and did not speak again.

The man unexpectedly climbed up a thick tree two or three times, and lay down on a thick tree branch to take a nap.

Seeing this, Xu Weiqiu muttered dissatisfiedly: "Sleep! Sleep! Sleep! It's better to fall asleep and fall from the tree."

She said this in a loud voice, and the people on the tree didn't know whether they were too tired to fall asleep, or they were too lazy to argue with her, so they didn't make a sound to scold her.

"Master...Master Zhao..."

She called twice, but the other party still did not respond.She had no choice but to find a place under the tree and sat down, thinking that in this deep mountain and old forest, it was impossible for her to fall asleep; however, she was too exhausted and exhausted, so she sat there with her back against the big tree , listening to the sound of insects in the night, unconsciously closed his eyes and face and fell into a deep sleep.

When it was daylight, Zhao Yan came down from the tree, probably because he was not sleeping well in the tree, so he kicked Xu Weiqiu and asked her to move aside; Xu Weiqiu moved to the side impatiently, and Zhao Yan Leaning on the position where she had slept, the two continued to sleep shoulder to shoulder.

It was dawn soon, but the two still didn't want to wake up.

While her consciousness was hazy, a cold object slid past the back of her hand, Xu Weiqiu murmured, feeling the cold object wrapped around her hand.

She opened her eyes and face with difficulty, and when she saw the thing wrapped around her hand, she suddenly felt terrified.

It was a snake, its body twisted, and it slid past the back of her hand.

Xu Weiqiu didn't dare to move, and gently nudged the person beside him with his elbow. Zhao Yan opened his eyes and turned his head to look over. When he saw the nearly three-foot-long green snake wrapped around their feet, his scalp shuddered. Ma, you know, he hates this kind of stuff that crawls on the ground the most in his life.

Xu Weiqiu motioned him to keep quiet, took a deep breath, aimed at the position of the snake's head, pinched the snake's neck with lightning speed, and with a quick flick, the snake's body was thrown two meters away.

The green snake was frightened and quickly ran into the grass.

Zhao Yan looked at her in surprise, and said after a while, "I didn't expect you to have two brushes, and you dare to catch them with bare hands."

Xu Weiqiu patted his heart, and said with lingering fear: "This is a green snake, which is not poisonous. If it is a poisonous snake, I really dare not."

Being disturbed by this green snake, the two of them lost all sleepiness. They looked up at the sky, it was almost noon.

At this moment, both of them are thirsty and thirsty.It was rare for the two to agree, and they looked for water sources first, but they turned around on the mountain, but there was no sign of water.

"If this goes on like this, if you don't starve to death, you will die of thirst first."

Zhao Yan said that from his dark face, it could be seen that he was extremely upset.Xu Weiqiu didn't say anything, she was attracted by a tree in front of her, stepped forward to observe for a while, picked a light yellow fruit from the tree, and handed it to Zhao Yan who followed.

"Give……"

Zhao Yan glanced down, but did not reach out to take it: "How do you know that this fruit is not poisonous, maybe you want me to test the poison for you?"

This man, who does he take himself for?

Xu Weiqiu explained to him angrily: "Don't worry, it's not poisonous. I just saw a bird eating the fruit on the top. The bird can eat it. What are you afraid of?"
