Rebirth from Conan

Chapter 217 Wolves

Chapter 217 Wolves
Xia He has always adhered to the principle of shooting the enemy's eyes first.

Especially when facing an enemy that is much stronger than you.

It was obvious that the strength of the wild boar in front of him was not even on the same level as Xia He's.

"Roar----!"

The wild boar whose eyes were shot let out a shrill scream, and at the same time the whole pig started to run around wildly as if it had gone mad.

"Come on!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia He rushed forward, pulled Lian Na up and ran away.

Two small figures quickly shuttled through the jungle.

It was not until a while later, when the wild boar was nowhere to be seen, that Xia He breathed a sigh of relief and then sat down on the ground.

"Phew~ that was close."

He was asked to fight a porcupine that was more than ten times his size without a knife...

That would undoubtedly be a very dangerous thing.

At the same time, after successfully escaping from danger, Lena couldn't help but hug Xia He and began to cry loudly.

“Wow~~~~!”

"Hey, stop crying. The pigs are gone. Why are you still crying?" Xia He scratched his hair.

Then, Lian Na pulled up her dress, revealing her bloody calf, and cried, "My foot is injured."

Xia He: "."

Why does this little brat have so many problems every day?

Somewhat helplessly, he tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes and tied it on Lena's wound.

"Can you still walk?" Xia He looked at Lian Na: "If you can, I will bandage you after we return to the village."

Unexpectedly, Lian Na shook her head, pursed her lips, and whispered to Xia He: "It hurts~~"

Xia He: "."

Forget it, I guess I won’t be able to leave here for a while.

It's impossible for him to carry a "big sister" who is seven years older than him on his back, right?

Even with my small arms and legs, I have to be able to carry it.

Just when I was thinking whether I should leave Lena here and go down to find someone to help...

"Roar---!"

The howling of wild boars began to sound again from not far away.

……

"Why haven't you come back yet?"

Sunset West Mountain.

Casiri stood on the second floor of the wooden house, stretched his neck from the balcony and looked at the end of the path.

He had already come back from running, and was beaten up twice by his wife...

Even though everyone knew Xia He's abilities very well, he was still a child after all. After such a long period of no news, as adults, they would still subconsciously feel worried.

"Minnie, do you know where Xia He went?" Millie also came to the balcony at this time, stuck her head out and looked downstairs.

Minian, who was standing in front of the door, shook her head and said, "I don't know. He just said that he had something to do and asked me to go down the mountain by myself first..."

Could it be that he really encountered some danger?

After all, she had heard from the village chief of Kedemo that there were many wild beasts in the mountains and forests on this island.

This is also the reason why, every night, the villagers would send some people to guard the head and tail of the village.

"After it gets completely dark, it will definitely be more dangerous in the forest, right?"

"How about... you go look for it in the mountains?"

Miri looked at her husband.

She knew very well that both her life and her husband's life were saved by Xia He.

Therefore, if their savior fell into danger, how could the three of them just sit there and do nothing?

At the moment she was speaking, Faith, Kuroto, Walter, and Pat had already picked up their hoes and shovels and walked towards the road leading to the mountains without saying a word.

Seeing this, Casilli looked at his wife and daughter and said, "Wife, Minnie Ann, you stay at home, I'll be back soon."

……

"Lena!"

"Lena, where are you?"

"Don't scare Dad!"

"Lena!"

After discovering that their daughter was missing, Kedemo and his wife brought torches and a group of people to the forest and began searching for their daughter.

"Are you sure Lena ran up the mountain?"

"I'm not sure...but I heard my daughter say this afternoon that she wanted to send flowers to Dr. Minnie Ann and Xia He. Where else could she get them except the flowers on the mountain?"

Kedemo scratched the back of his head with some regret, "I should have brought her with me and kept an eye on her..."

At that time, he only warned Lena twice, telling her not to run around alone when her parents were not at home.

Now it seems that he should not have left Lena at home and went to the village alone to lead people to farm.

"Don't say such meaningless things. Find the person first." Cradona replied to him.

And at the moment when the two of them were talking, four sheriffs and Casilli appeared behind their team, holding weapons and torches.

"What, Xia He is missing too?!" Upon learning of this, Kedemo's face became increasingly ugly.

Soon, all the adult men in the village appeared in the forest.

Everyone formed a square team, looked after each other's backs, and advanced forward little by little in the pitch-black forest.

Compared to the previous scene when everyone was shouting Lena's name at the top of their lungs, no one dared to open their mouths to make too much noise at this moment.

after all……

They knew best how dangerous the forest was at night.

Until an hour later.

Halfway up the mountain, they heard the howling of wolves.

"This number looks like a wolf pack?"

"This is really bad..."

I suddenly felt scared.

And at this moment when many people were thinking of giving up...

"Ouch~~!"

A male wolf jumped out of the bushes.

Then, a large number of wolves emerged from all directions, howling. In less than five seconds, they had "surrounded" the villagers.

"Damn..."
