Chapter 2388 Run
The mutated beast couldn't understand Ji Xiaoyan's words and couldn't respond to her, so it just led her running wildly in the night as the scenery gradually became clearer.
The night wind blew so hard on Ji Xiaoyan's face that she couldn't open her eyes at all. She could only lower her face, hide in the mutant beast's webbed spines, and look at the speeding beast from time to time. The scenery passing by.
Not knowing how far he had run, Ji Xiaoyan finally felt that the mutant beast had slowed down by two points, and it even changed direction several times.
Squinting his eyes and looking around, Ji Xiaoyan was instantly frightened.
In the wilderness where they thought they were alone, many mutant beasts appeared at some point, running wildly beside them from near or far away. From the looks of it, they seemed to be chasing them.
Ji Xiaoyan stared at the mutated beasts running around them with wide eyes, feeling the tension in his heart getting stronger and stronger.
Soon, several mutant beasts seemed to be aiming at the opportunity. They turned in a direction from a distance and ran straight towards Ji Xiaoyan and the others. At first glance, they thought To rush into them. So, Ji Xiaoyan quickly grabbed one of the mutant beast's webbed spines and couldn't help shouting at it: "Be careful!"
The mutant beast tilted its head slightly and moved toward it. The mutant beasts on both sides glanced at each other, but suddenly opened the webbed spines on both sides of their back necks.
Those webbed spines stood up one after another, and instantly emitted a stream of faint blue light, causing the mutated beasts that were running towards them to stiffen and stop in place. .
Ji Xiaoyan lay in the middle of the webbed spines, looking at the faint blue light on both sides. He felt his head was dizzy for a moment. The next second, he nervously looked through the gaps in the webbed spines at the mutated beasts on both sides. Then he found that the mutant beasts that wanted to rush over had been left far away, but the other mutant beasts were still following.
The mutated beast seemed a little irritable. It glanced to both sides and then turned in another direction and put away the webbed spines on the back of its neck.
Ji Xiaoyan shook his head to keep himself awake, then carefully moved his body, hiding himself in the gap between the webbed spines on the back of the mutant beast's neck. Don't dare to move again. The mutant beast had only opened part of its webbed spines, completely avoiding the position where she was lying down. It was obviously because it was afraid of hurting her, so if she changed its position, it might be better for the mutant beast. Be better.
The mutated beast seemed to have noticed Ji Xiaoyan's movements. It turned to look at her while running, and then turned its attention to the front.
The blackness of the night sky gradually began to fade, and light began to dye the sky, making the outline of the earth more and more clear.
However, there were more and more mutant beasts running around following Ji Xiaoyan and the others.
Seeing those hundreds of mutated beasts following behind him, Ji Xiaoyan really didn’t understand!
Why do these mutant beasts follow them?
Ji Xiaoyan had thought about whether those mutated beasts wanted to follow that mutated beast, but looking at the mutated beast that was clearly trying to get rid of them, Ji Xiaoyan knew that this was all It's just her innocent idea! Those mutated beasts probably want to attack them!
But why?
Ji Xiaoyan couldn't understand! I could only hide honestly in the webbed spines on the back of the mutated beast's neck, watching it open its webbed spines more and more frequently, and also watching the blue light on its webbed spines dimming more and more.
Ji Xiaoyan knew that the mutant beast was starting to get tired.
More and more mutated beasts gathered behind him, but Ji Xiaoyan could not see where Qiyu City was.
If this situation continues, when the mutant beast is exhausted, they will definitely be eaten alive by the mutant beasts behind them! Ji Xiaoyan felt a little depressed when he thought of that situation! Do you think it would have been better if the mutated beast hadn't trampled her communicator to pieces? At least, she can now send a distress signal to strangers and ask them to send a few flying ships. Not only can she kill all the mutant beasts, but at least she can block them. Let that mutated beast catch its breath and take a rest!
The light in the sky became stronger and stronger, and soon, the night on the earth was completely driven away.
A new day has completely arrived.
The mutant beast carried Ji Xiaoyan on its back, looked up at the bright sky, put away all the webbed spines on the back of its neck, and sprinted forward with all its strength. .
The mutant beasts behind him followed for a while and then began to attack that mutant beast again.
However, this time, Ji Xiaoyan discovered that the mutant beast did not open the webbed spines on the back of its neck. When those mutated beasts rushed towards them, the mutated beasts would either dodge or grab them with one claw.
Ji Xiaoyan's eyes widened as she watched the huge body of a mutated beast fly out next to her, leaving only a fishy smell that rushed into her nasal cavity. She felt her heart beating with fear. It almost stopped!
Next, they really embarked on a journey of escape.
The mutant beasts seemed to have discovered that the mutant beast would no longer open its webbed spines to deal with them, so the frequency of attacks became more and more frequent, and they almost jumped on the mutant beast several times. , the frightened Ji Xiaoyan could only lie tightly on the back of the mutant beast, staring nervously at the mutant beasts that had been chasing him with wide eyes.
On the wilderness land, the rolling dust was brought up by the mutant beasts and could not dissipate for a long time. Ji Xiaoyan clutched the mutant beast so tightly that she could hardly see how many mutant beasts were chasing them.
Time passed little by little, and the wilderness gradually became warmer than the sun, and the mutant beast took Ji Xiaoyan without resting or taking a sip for several hours. Water!
Ji Xiaoyan clearly felt that the mutant beast's physical strength was being depleted bit by bit. Several times, she felt that the mutant beast's legs and feet seemed to have cramps, but it adjusted them in time. The mutant beasts following them seized this opportunity and followed them a little closer.
Ji Xiaoyan really wanted to say something, let the mutant beast leave her and escape, but think about it, even if the mutant beast left her, those mutant beasts might not Let it go, and she will only die after being let go. Thinking about it, Ji Xiaoyan smiled bitterly.
The mutated beast raised its head and glanced at the sky again. As if it had made up its mind, it suddenly made a sharp turn and changed direction, leading Ji Xiaoyan along a pile of rocks. He ran over, and after about ten minutes of running, he led her to the foot of a hill, then quickly climbed up the rocks on the hill, heading towards the highest point.
The rocks on those hills are extremely steep, and there is almost no place to climb on. But under such circumstances, the mutant beast was able to cling to the rocks tightly, leading Ji Xiaoyan a few times. He climbed up in one jump, but did not fall as Ji Xiaoyan feared. The mutant beasts following them did not seem to be as flexible and powerful as this mutant beast. After climbing a few times, many mutant beasts grabbed the rocks and fell down. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Seeing this, some smarter mutant beasts immediately changed their direction and started running directly around the bottom of the hill, as if they were preparing to find an easier way to climb up.
Ji Xiaoyan carefully turned his head and looked down. After watching the mutant beasts pull away from them, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He waited for the mutant beast to climb to the top of the hill. This time Then he finally took a deep breath, straightened up, and looked around the hills.
This hill has many peaks, like a huge piece of gravel falling messily to the earth, arranged high and low.
The place where Ji Xiaoyan and the mutated beast were standing was one of the hills that was about ten meters high. Going further ahead, there were several higher hills, and the highest The hill peak is extremely straight, like a sword, thrust diagonally into the earth, and looks impressive!
The mutated beast turned and glanced at Ji Xiaoyan on its back, watching her looking around curiously, whining at her, and looking at her with a confused look on her face. After looking at it, the mutated beast raised its head and looked towards the highest hill.
Ji Xiaoyan followed the mutant beast's gaze, but his expression changed slightly: "Do you want to go there? That mountain is too high to climb up, right?"
The mutant beast didn't pay attention to Ji Xiaoyan's intention. It just tilted its head and waited for Ji Xiaoyan to grasp its webbed spines. The mutant beast jumped forward and instantly jumped off the ground where it was standing. He rushed to the hill he was touching and ran towards the hill farther away.
Ji Xiaoyan didn't understand, since they had gotten rid of the mutated beasts for the time being, why they still had to go to the highest hill instead of changing the direction and going directly to Qiyu City.
The mutated beast couldn't explain, so Ji Xiaoyan naturally didn't understand, so he could only let it lead him. Half an hour later, he stood under the highest hill.
Looking up at the steep rock wall that was almost straight up and down, Ji Xiaoyan felt that his heart could hardly beat. Such a steep mountain wall had almost no place to put its claws down. How could that mutated beast be able to climb up with her?
However, the mutant beast had no intention of worrying about this at all. It turned around and looked around. After making sure that no other mutant beasts were found, the mutant beast walked around the building. Qiu Feng walked for a while, and then found a pool of spring water in a corner. After signaling Ji Xiaoyan to get off its back, he sat beside the spring water.
"Did you bring me here to drink water?" Ji Xiaoyan asked the mutant beast in surprise. Although she didn't get a response, she still smiled happily at the mutant beast and crouched down. When he arrived at the spring water, he stretched out his hand and took several mouthfuls of spring water and drank it. Tasting the sweet taste of the spring water, he felt instantly relaxed.
“Come on, drink some too!” Ji Xiaoyan looked at the mutated beast, pointed in the direction of the spring, and said to it: “You must have taken me so far away. You must be thirsty if you look for it.”
The mutated beast seemed to see Ji Xiaoyan was full, and then it stretched its neck, plunged into the spring water, and started to drink gurglingly. . Not sure whether it was because the spring water itself was too little, or whether the mutated beast was too drinkable, Ji Xiaoyan just watched as the water in the spring began to gurglingly decrease, and it actually bottomed out very quickly.
Ji Xiaoyan looked at the spring water with some dumbfounded eyes, and then looked at the mutated beast that was still licking the bottom of the spring. Ji Xiaoyan actually regretted not taking two more sips of the spring water just now! I'm afraid it won't be that easy to find the spring again, right?
The mutated beast seemed to be full, and licked its mouth with satisfaction, then flicked its tail, half-lying on the ground, and motioned for Ji Xiaoyan to climb on its back.
Ji Xiaoyan took a deep breath and hid honestly among the webbed spines on the back of the mutated beast again. Then he felt it stand up and jump and gallop between the hills again, and soon it was on the hill. He stopped on the side of the highest hill, then stretched out his paws and climbed up.
Ji Xiaoyan felt that his whole heart was lifted instantly. He held his breath and tightly grasped the mutated beast's webbed spines. He didn't even dare to open his eyes to take another look. His heart was filled with excitement. praying.
The mutant beast's climb was not too smooth. Ji Xiaoyan clearly felt that the mutant beast missed the mark twice and fell. However, she didn't even dare to call out
I don't know how long this tense moment lasted. Finally, the mutant beast didn't move anymore, but whined at Ji. Xiaoyan called out twice, causing her to slowly open her eyes and look at everything in front of her.
At this moment, she and the mutant beast were standing on a high ground. They could see far away at a glance, and on the other side was the extremely steep cliff.
"We...are we climbing up?" Ji Xiaoyan was startled, and then became a little surprised. He couldn't help but asked the mutant beast loudly, but he watched the mutant beast throw away It flicked its tail to signal her to get off it.
Ji Xiaoyan quickly fell from the mutated beast to the ground and looked at the wide flat land in front of him. He was surprised to find a few potholes filled with Jingtou. There is heavy rain, and there are still shallow grasses on many of the ground. It is a peaceful place like a peachland.
The mutated beast shook its head and glanced at Ji Xiaoyan twice before standing on the edge of the cliff again, lowering its head and looking down.
Ji Xiaoyan approached the mutant beast with some curiosity and fear. When she looked down, she finally understood why the mutant beast had to take her up the highest hill. Peak!
Under the hill peak, several mutant beasts chasing after them have appeared.
