Chapter 214: I can hold it back, you guys go quickly
Good.
He gave a soft reply, then climbed onto Kang Wen's back.
Kang Wen handed him the stick in his hand, then wrapped both arms around his thighs, "Hold on tight!"
"What should we do?" the hidden guards in the dark, watching the two brothers' appearance, and also Kang Wen's words.
Previously thought it was the Regent's Consort accompanying the children to play, but now it seems…
They seemed to have realized, things aren't that simple; some children understand the reasoning, but adults may not.
"The Consort has ordered that unless lives are threatened or they voluntarily give up, we must not reveal ourselves." Another hidden guard said coldly, then glanced at that person and continued following.
They must ensure the children's safety, keep distance under control, and be ready to rescue at any time.
Meanwhile, Kang Zhi Chun and Kang Zhiqiu walked together, looking at the marks on the trees, and found Kang Zi Wei.
"Don't come over." Hearing footsteps behind her, Kang Zi Wei shouted loudly.
Kang Zhi Chun and Kang Zhiqiu quickly dodged, then peered ahead, only to see a wild boar weighing two hundred catties, and Kang Zi Wei's body was already covered in blood.
"Zhiqiu, prepare to ambush; I'll go help Zi Wei." Kang Zhi Chun quickly assessed the situation, then made a decision.
Yes.
At this moment, there's no room for hesitation; Kang Zhiqiu swiftly changed position, moving toward the wild boar.
The wild boar was being led by Kang Zi Wei, and didn't notice Kang Zhiqiu's movement at all.
And Kang Zhi Chun held a sharp stick, a weapon she had specially found a stone to grind into shape; during their mission they had nothing on them, not even a change of clothes.
Her hair was casually tied with vines, and wearing a cyan-blue academy uniform, she looked even more aloof.
I can hold it back, you guys go quickly.
Kang Zi Wei heard the approaching footsteps growing closer, anxiously shouted, this wild boar weighs over two hundred catties, its skin is thick and meat tough, hard to pierce, and it's very strong; she's been dragging it for a long time, her stamina is extremely overdrawn.
"Go rest." As Kang Zhi Chun spoke, she had already stood beside Kang Zi Wei, her body slightly bent downward, her stick gripped tightly, her whole body entering a defensive stance.
Zhi Chun sister.
Kang Zi Wei was somewhat anxious; facing the wild boar, they had no suitable weapon in hand, basically no chance to win.
Escaping one is a gain; escaping two is a profit.
Zi Wei, since you call me sister, listen to me.
Taking me as the reference point, there's a big tree in the three o'clock direction behind; Zhiqiu is hiding nearby, you retreat straight there and then climb up the tree to rest." Kang Zhi Chun quickly issued the command.
Clock Direction Setting!
This didn't exist in this era, but Jiang Yun Chu was accustomed to battlefield positioning, using the clock to determine direction, so he had specially trained them to teach them unified orientation.
If someone goes onto the battlefield, or when combat is needed, they can quickly coordinate.
Yes!
Kang Zi Wei's gaze remained fixed on the wild boar, she clenched her silver teeth, having no choice but to agree.
As she moved, the wild boar moved too.
Beast, you dare!
At the same time, Kang Zhi Chun also moved.
As the wild boar charged forward rapidly, Kang Zhi Chun's small frame swung the sharp stick in her hand.
But the charging wild boar, with its tremendous impact, drove the stick into its belly; yet she herself was also dragged along by the boar.
Serpentine footwork.
Kang Zhiqiu shouted loudly, indicating Zi Wei's footwork method.
The wild boar was about to collide with her; just now Kang Zhi Chun's stick had made the boar feel pain, slowing its speed a bit, but only limitedly.
They couldn't dodge it.
Kang Zi Wei instinctively obeyed the command; at the critical moment, "Bang."
The wild boar directly slammed into that tree, the tree shook violently; Kang Zi Wei, who had just climbed up the tree, had already lost strength in her hands, she quickly let go, and at that moment a vine dropped down, then a petite figure fell, directly embracing her waist, and swiftly used vines to secure her.
Zi Wei sister, I'll go help my sister, you rest a bit.
Kang Zhiqiu looked at the situation below, glanced worriedly at her sister, speaking quickly, already undone the vine, and leapt straight down.
And in her hand she carried a thin piece of stone, more like a dagger; along the way her stone has done a lot of work.
Sister, seven o'clock direction, circle the tree.
Twelve o'clock direction, jump onto the tree, flip down.
Although Kang Zhiqiu was anxious, her hand movements didn't change, but her eyes also kept fixed on that battlefield; now her sister is inside the battlefield, many of her actions are instinctive reactions, with many blind spots in her vision.
Meanwhile, she quickly used the sharp stone shavings to whittle some branches, inserting them into the ground.
The wild boar's skin is thick and meat tough; she couldn't predict whether it could be wounded.
Zhiqiu, I'll help you.
Kang Zi Wei undid the vine, climbed down; the two's speed increased greatly, and Kang Zhiqiu also had more energy to observe Zhi Chun's battlefield.
Constantly reminding her of her footwork.
Although Kang Zhi Chun's steps were already somewhat unsteady, sweat had soaked her clothes, yet she hadn't suffered any injury, her stamina consumption enormous.
Alright, for now.
Kang Zhiqiu looked at the trap, her supplies limited.
Zi Wei sister, we need to weave a vine net to trap it." Kang Zhiqiu pointed at the wild boar and said quickly.
I'll go replace my sister; my sister needs to rest.
Kang Zi Wei hurriedly nodded, the blood on her body had already soaked through her outer clothing.
But at this moment nobody could attend to that.
Sister, three o'clock direction, climb the tree." Kang Zhiqiu quickly spoke.
She deliberately avoided the trap's location, rushed forward, and the stick she held in her hand swung a few times—not to wound the wild boar, but to make the boar target her.
Kang Zhi Chun felt the tremor of the wild boar striking the tree, clung tightly to the trunk, her face already turning pale, and she could summon no strength.
"Your opponent is me!" Kang Zhiqiu's stick lashed out swiftly, and her form shifted instantly.
All she needed was to buy time!
"Zhiqiu, be careful!" Kang Zhi Chun called out.
But Kang Zhiqiu, from an angle, abruptly shifted direction, sending the wild boar crashing into a side tree—leaving the area in utter disarray.
Several smaller trees had already toppled.
"Do you hear that? It sounds like there's movement." Kang Wu furrowed his brow, then patted Kang Wen's shoulder. "Brother, put me down for a moment—I need to rest."
They'd been walking for half an hour, unsure whether the mountain was simply vast or they'd strayed too far.
After all that walking, they hadn't run into anyone.
