At this time, the person hiding under the **** was tense all over, hugging himself and clenching his fists tightly.
The moment the gang came near Xiaopo, her mental tension reached its highest point.
Her heart was beating very fast, and she could hear her own overly rapid breathing in the small and dirty cave.
Obviously I am trying to relax and slow down, but when I am highly stressed and have been running for a long time, the physiological reaction is difficult to control no matter what.
If she didn't breathe quickly, she would feel extremely suffocated—as if someone was holding her throat.
The footsteps are getting closer and closer, from fast to slow.
Following the blood trail, they came to the surrounding area. The firelight illuminated her, stretching the shadows of the trees to long and diagonal lengths—like a ghost. Once discovered, they would drag her into hell, a bottomless hell.
Quiet, especially quiet in the woods.
The sound of searchers stepping on dead leaves is like the countdown to death.
One step.
Two steps.
Three steps…
The blood stains stayed on the small slope. The searcher leading the army, with thick eyebrows and a sinister expression, held up a torch and stopped at the spot where the blood stains remained.
Observe carefully.
The torch slowly moved downwards, the light gradually swallowed up the shadows under the slope, and the searching eyes were locked tightly.
“plop—plop—”
The sound of a dying heart.
The foretelling of death seems to be coming when the light shines.
Just when the torchlight was about to shine on the dry branches that sheltered the cave—
At the critical moment, just a little bit close to being discovered, suddenly, a white shadow flashed past in the distance.
“Crack—” The sound of footsteps breaking branches immediately alerted the pursuers here.
"No! She's there! Chase her!" The searcher looked evil.
A group of people immediately jumped down the hill and ran straight in the direction of the white shadow.
No one looked back, and no one noticed the small hole covered by dry branches at the foot of the slope.
The situation changed so quickly that the person hiding in the small hole seemed to be stunned for a moment.
Hunting on the dry branches, he was still huddled, staring blankly at the farther and farther away firelight outside. “Princess, run quickly—”
The whispering voice came from the front, urgent and worried.
“Run—don’t look back—”
She suddenly came to her senses.
After reacting, there was no time to think too much. She dragged her body covered in scars and stumbled out of the cave.
Run, go backward, in the opposite direction of the fire.
While running, I covered my mouth to suppress the choking desire to cry out.
“Run—run quickly—”
The secret words behind him came as hard as they could.
The bright blood gradually turned into a delicate and beautiful white.
She ran as hard as she could, her feet hurting so much, and she didn't dare to stop even though her skin and flesh were torn apart by sand, gravel and sharp fallen leaves.
Fall down, get up, fall down again, get up again, stagger.
The voice coming from the distance behind him became weaker and weaker, but he still tried his best.
The running people covered their mouths tightly with tears in their eyes, but they did not dare to stop at all.
“Don’t look back—absolutely—don’t look back—”
The sound stopped.
Something seemed to have cut open the skin, and the head fell to the ground.
The hysterical voice disappeared.
The running man’s **** feet suddenly stopped, as if he sensed something.
Stiff, her body was stiff and unable to move, and tears fell in large numbers, falling on the ground and on her dirty white dress stained with blood.
Want to cry, want to cry loudly, fear, fear, loneliness, despair, all the emotions are overwhelming.
Tears blurred her vision, but she could not say a word.
Hands covered with scratches from branches were clutching her tightly, her whole body ached, and her near-collapse emotions even made it hard for her to breathe.
Can't look back...Can't look back...
