Chapter 159: Almost Cut by Humans
Gu Heng shot another arrow and killed the big wolf that was rushing towards him, then pulled out the arrow.
This was the thirty or so wild beasts he had killed in the past three or four hours... Gu Heng was not sure because he had not counted them.
He had enough meat in his hands, so he didn't stop to harvest the fresh meat of the prey. Now Gu Heng really wanted to find a place that was high enough to avoid being harassed by wild beasts, and it would be best if the scenery was good, because he brought a lot of things with him this time, ready to kill time...
Gu Heng planned to make good use of his "painting" skills and capture the Yunling Forest on paper by splashing ink and brush.
If he doesn't draw, wouldn't it be a waste of his skills that he has mastered to the maximum level?
After walking for about another half an hour, it was already noon.
The sun is particularly strong today.
Under the scorching sun, Gu Heng sweated a lot.
Looking ahead, his face couldn't help but brighten up, there happened to be a mountain standing in the sea of ??forests, he nodded secretly, this place was a good place to camp!
At that moment, he quickened his pace.
"Ouch~~"
However, before he approached the mountain, a sudden shrill howl scared Gu Heng.
"What the hell?"
Gu Heng looked in the direction of the foot of the mountain, and found that there was a woman in white, flying with a sword in her hand. The sword energy swept across, chopping the beasts that tried to bite her into several pieces, and blood splattered in the forest.
What was shocking was that the woman had many wounds on her body, and her skirt had long been stained red. However, there seemed to be too many corpses lying at her feet!
"Wait, is it a monk?"
When Gu Heng saw the woman's moves, he immediately realized that she was a cultivator.
How could a mortal possibly produce this sword energy that is visible to the naked eye?
And those are definitely not wild beasts, they are definitely monsters in the Yunling Forest!
The monsters are much more terrifying.
But under her sword, many people were killed, so Gu Heng knew clearly who was more terrifying.
Suddenly, the woman raised her sword and slashed towards Gu Heng. A sword light swept over in an instant!
This scared Gu Heng quite a bit.
How could he have expected that the woman would suddenly slash at him with a sword?
Fortunately, the sword's speed was not very fast, and Gu Heng himself was considered to be one of the most skilled mortals, so he dodged it. Behind him, a deep horizontal cut appeared on the trunk of an ancient tree.
The woman was serious.
If this hit me, my lower body would definitely be standing while my upper body would fly out.
"Hey! Are you kidding me? You're going to chop anyone you see?"
Gu Heng's face turned dark and he shouted angrily. He had pulled the bowstring in his hand with an arrow on it, but he did not retaliate against the woman.
Look at other people swinging swords to kill monsters, it's just like chopping melons and vegetables. He had to pull the bow dozens of times to kill those wild beasts, so he should not show off his mortal tricks.
"Human?"
At this time, the eyes of the woman in white shirt gradually became clearer, and she realized that she had just attacked rashly because she heard some noise, thinking that another monster was surrounding them, but she didn't expect it to be a human.Relatively clean clothes, an ordinary yet old-looking black bow and a quiver on his back, plus... the calm aura, all told her that this was a mortal.
...mortal?!
How could a mortal come to the "Forbidden Realm of the Demon King" in the Yunling Forest?
Is it that deep?
It looks quite relaxing. Apart from sweating a little, nothing happened?
She, a sword cultivator in the out-of-body stage, nearly lost her life. From last night to today, the rapidly deteriorating situation in the forest forced her to fight her way out. She was still lucky, but the disciples of the "Thousand Swords Sect" who were traveling with her were not so lucky.
Moreover, he just dodged his sword energy easily...
But the woman in white didn't think any more about it.
She is too tired.
Her hands and feet were weak from killing and her eyes were red. She just wanted to rest for half a cup of tea. She didn't care about the opponent's background, as long as it was not a monster.
"Hello? Is anyone home?"
Gu Heng's shout was heard again, because the woman suddenly stood still with a very subtle expression on her face.
Could he be deaf?
The eyes of the woman in white moved, she took a deep breath, and lowered the tip of the sword towards Gu Heng.
"I'm sorry. It was not my intention to attack you just now."
She seemed to have used too much energy and her steps were unsteady.
"The monsters in this forest have gone crazy. I haven't had even a moment's rest from last night to today. Just now I thought there was another monster coming..."
Gu Heng raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, let go of the bowstring, and put the arrow back into the quiver.
OK, misunderstanding resolved.
Although he was very unhappy about being almost cut in half by a sword, seeing how miserable she was, her whole body seemed to be soaked in blood, and he didn't know how much was her blood and how much was the monster's blood... and her eyes were still in shock and even red, which showed that she was definitely much more miserable than himself.
Anyway, she was a cultivator, and she had apologized to a mortal like him. At least she was somewhat polite, so Gu Heng didn't intend to pursue the matter.
"It's okay. Seeing how you look, it must be difficult... But I've been in the forest for two days, and you're only the second person I've met."
He was smiling as he spoke and looked quite relaxed.
The woman in white couldn't help but be surprised when she heard this: "You...haven't you ever been attacked by a monster?"
"No, there is no way I can defeat a monster."
Gu Heng shrugged honestly.
He encountered many wild beasts. To be honest, he was lucky as he could deal with those wild beasts. If it was a monster... haha, it would probably not be easy for him to escape.
"...well."
The woman in white felt indescribably complicated.
Look at them!
Look at yourself again!
A mortal can have such incredible luck.
