The Great Escape (4)

Gu Xijiu was also exhausted. Along the way, she had used her teleportation skill so many times and was even involved in a series of battles. At this very moment, she could feel that her legs were weak. However, she dared not take a rest like everyone else. They were new to the place, so no one could be sure that there was no incoming danger.

She wanted to send a few men out in different directions and secure the perimeter but was quickly interrupted by Di Fuyi. He sat her down on a big rock and said, "You should sit down and have a rest. I will take care of it."

Gu Xijiu noticed his fairly pale complexion. "There is no need for that. You should rest while I check the place out." Her eyes then swept across the hill as she said, "The place may not be too safe. We should take a break for only an hour. After that, we should resume our journey. The next stop for rest will be in the city. Tie Dan, you will guard the southern side. Tie Niu, you will take the northern side."
