Chapter 77: Life and death struggle in the forest.

Chapter 77: Life and death struggle in the forest.

The wolf's skin is remarkably thick, and its strength is exceedingly robust.

Zhang Liu utilized his entire body weight, barely sufficient to suppress it.

Moreover, the skin of his fist endured constant abrasions from the wolf's hard teeth, and the four sharp claws scratched various areas.

He could only persist in stabbing with the bone spear.

However, the bone dagger shattered after making two or three holes.

This unexpected, almost desperate situation caused Zhang Liu's initially relaxed mindset to crumble instantly.

Simultaneously, sensing the opponent's "claw" breaking, the wolf started to fight ferociously.

The wolf's head, securely attached to Zhang Liu's palm, shook even more, and a lot of foul-smelling drool dripped from its mouth.

"Go to hell!" Zhang Liu roared frenziedly.

His eyes were already red, and his rage propelled him to jab the broken bone into the wolf's eyes with his back hand, forcefully continuing the motion.

After enduring such a powerful blow, the wolf struggled vehemently for the last time. However, Zhang Liu controlled its head tightly, eliminating any possibility of breaking free.

This scene appeared exceedingly brutal to Qin Ruyan, who had been awakened by the thunderous sounds.

Though she wasn't frightened, she desired to assist.

Yet, her current physical condition confined Qin Ruyan to resting against a tree.

The series of deafening sounds gradually subsided.

Zhang Liu also gradually halted the intense movements of his right hand.

Underneath him, the famished wolf, which had been twisting its head and beating its claws, now lay motionless.

His entire body ached, nearly to the point of numbness, and his legs trembled incessantly.

Zhang Liu rose from the ground, numbly walked to the side, retrieved the sheepskin bag that had fallen some distance away, and then slowly approached Qin Ruyan.

"Qin Rushuang, are you okay?" He was weary and chilled, his voice quivering.

Yet Zhang Liu himself was unaware of what he was saying. It was an instinctive inquiry.

"I'm fine," Qin Ruyan reassured, gripping the tree for support as she stood. She lacked the strength to dwell on how he had addressed her earlier but anxiously inquired, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine too. Did you come to find me? I discovered the plane wreckage Anya mentioned. You didn't need to come. Let's head back quickly!" Shaking his head, Zhang Liu spoke almost involuntarily, reaching out to seize Qin Rushuang and turning back in the direction they had come.

After taking only a few steps, he stumbled over a wolf's body on the ground and nearly fell.

"Be careful!" Sensing the boy's weakness in front of her, Qin Ruyan quickly extended her hand to grab Zhang Liu, then placed his arm on her shoulders and said, "This is the direction, right?"

The rain continued unabated.

"Yes!" After Zhang Liu heard Qin Rushuang's question, he answered in a low voice while simultaneously extending his hand to touch his body.

His stomach and chest were wet and sticky.

It was unclear whether it was rain or blood.

The wounds, felt immediately after being touched with his fingers, caused pain for Zhang Liu.

He realized that perhaps, despite his usual carefulness, he might not survive due to a moment of impulsiveness...

Zhang Liu was in a state of numbness as Qin Rushuang, beside him, carried him toward the wreckage.

Passing through the outer forest, Qin Ruyan could now see the plane wreckage with the help of the weak light.

As soon as her eyes lit up, she immediately accelerated her pace. In an almost forceful, dragging manner, she rushed toward the wreckage with the man next to her, who had saved her life.

"Ding-ding-ding-ding..." The sound of the metal shell above the rain-hit wreckage awakened Zhang Liu, who was on the verge of losing consciousness.

He hadn't hit a vital point at all and was on the brink of falling into a coma just from losing strength.

Now that he had some rest, his condition had recovered a little.

Bearing the intense pain in his body, Zhang Liu looked at Qin Rushuang next to him and asked with concern on his face, "Qin... where is Anya?"

Zhang Liu was in bad shape. Just as he was about to call out Qin Rushuang's name, he had to take a deep breath. Then he could only ask about another girl he had not seen.

"Huh? What Anya?" Qin Ruyan asked subconsciously while looking down and flipping through the sheepskin bag that Zhang Liu picked up.

Her movement caused Zhang Liu's already dysfunctional brain, due to the injury, to almost stop working.

Terrifying thoughts flashed through his mind unconsciously.

Did the wolf eat Anya, who had not yet properly thanked him?

That's why Qin Rushuang showed such a ridiculous expression...

Zhang Liu stopped talking and turned his eyes to look outside.

If it's a heavy rainstorm mixed with hail and lightning now, it's quite heavy rain.

His whole body was cold, right down to his heart.

He now felt as if his body was in an ice cellar.

At this time, Anya, huddled next to the campfire with the real Qin Rushuang, watching the lamb slices being roasted until hot and oily, suddenly sneezed violently.

She rubbed her nose forcefully and unconsciously moved her body closer to Qin Rushuang.

"Are you okay? Did you catch a cold because of the rain now?" Qin Rushuang's mood has been extremely subtle since the thunderstorm. She even felt a strong and strange feeling.

As one of the twins, Qin Rushuang had experienced this feeling before.

These are the feelings she only feels when her sister Qin Ruyan encounters something sad or happy.

It's like a mysterious telepathy.

Qin Rushuang felt happy and anxious at the same time.

The good news is that my sister is probably alive and well in this wilderness.

What worries me is why I feel this way when it thunders and rains.

No, no, no...

It's also possible that my sister is afraid of thunder...

At this moment, she could only comfort herself by deceiving herself like this.

After hearing the sound of Anya's sneezing, Qin Rushuang came back to her senses from this feeling. She picked up a piece of mutton from one side of the fire and handed it to the other end, then said, "Eat something to warm your body first."

"I drank the hot water already!" Anya complained helplessly, then took the lamb, put it in her mouth, and took a big bite.

She was very satisfied with the oily texture, but the bland taste was a bit flawed.

"I don't know how Zhang Liu is now." Anya chewed the hot lamb slightly, looked at the almost non-stop rain in the sky, and whispered anxiously, "Don't end up as wet as a drowned rat."

"Didn't you say he could take shelter from the rain over there at the ruins?" Regarding this matter, just as she was worried about her sister, Qin Rushuang could only imagine the better side.

"But what if he doesn't find it?" Anya's words caused them to fall silent.

Then, when she knew that there was something wrong with her words, Anya quickly changed the subject and asked, "By the way, what kind of person is your sister?"

"my sister?" When Qin Rushuang talked about this topic, she fell silent. She pursed her lips and smiled. She said, "My sister is an authoritative big sister who likes to show off, right?"
