Professor Yan and the others also squatted by the stream to wash their hands, while the others found a place to sit or squat. Zhou xueli also picked a clean big stone and helped Mr. Zhou sit down. She took out a wet tissue from her bag and wiped Mr. Zhou’s face and hands.
Song qingxiao didn’t sit down. For a strengthened body, she only sweated a little. She was far from being tired to the point where she had to sit or lie down.
She didn’t dare to let her guard down. Instead, she chose a place with a wide view, took out a bottle of mineral water and a bag of biscuits from her bag, unscrewed the cap of the mineral water, and drank more than half of it before she looked at Mr. Zhou and Zhou xuli.
Zhou xueli would only drop her cold attitude when she was in front of Mr. Zhou. When she wiped his face and hands, her meticulous action was not like a subordinate’s action to her superior, but more like there was something inexplicable in it.
However, everyone was busy with their own matters and did not seem to see this scene.
After Zhou xueli wiped Mr. Zhou’s face and hands, she took out the food from the bag, tore it open, and fed it to Mr. Zhou.
She was able to notice Mr. Zhou’s needs in time. After feeding him a few mouthfuls, she fed him a bottle of mineral water. This action proved that she often did these things.
Song qingxiao was deep in thought. After drinking more than half of the bottle of water, she put the remaining bottle under her arm, tore off the biscuit packaging, grabbed a few biscuits, and stuffed them into her mouth.
The biscuits were only meant to fill her stomach. They did not taste good and were very dry. Song qingxiao stuffed them into her mouth a few times and drank the rest of the mineral water. After swallowing the biscuits, she finally felt full.
Perhaps it was because of the picturesque scenery here and the fact that no one had encountered any danger along the way, the few bodyguards had a rare moment of relaxation. Everyone was talking and laughing. Some people were lying on the grass with their eyes closed as if they were about to fall asleep.
A man got up and walked behind the dense bushes. Soon, his figure disappeared into the grass.
Song qingxiao released her mental power. In the sound of running water, she could hear the sound of water flowing even louder from the upper stream. She could also hear the laughter of other people in her ears. She could also hear the sound of Zhou xueli feeding Mr. Zhou water. On the other side of the bushes, the sound of water splashing should have come from the man who had entered the woods earlier.
She then released her mental power a little more, and three or four different auras burst into the area covered by her mental power!
These auras came very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they were close to the group.
The people by the stream had just relaxed, with smiles on their faces after surviving the disaster. They ate and soaked in water. Some even took off their shoes and soaked their bare feet in the stream. The people lying on the grass narrowed their eyes and did not move, not aware that danger had come.
The rotten leaves on the ground were gently stepped on, making a ‘rustle’ sound, which was much lighter than the sound of human stepping on the ground.
“Be careful!”
In a moment of desperation, song qingxiao called out instinctively. Before anyone could react, the leaves of the short trees were pushed aside and shook slightly. A gray figure shot out like lightning. He rose into the air, roared, and rushed directly to a bodyguard sitting by the stream.
Before the bodyguard could react, he only heard song Qing shout ‘be careful’. Then, he felt something coming at him. It was mixed with a fishy smell. A huge mouth as deep as an abyss opened, revealing white fangs, and it was aimed at his throat.
Although he was in danger, these bodyguards that Mr. Zhou had specially hired were not ordinary. When he reacted, he knew that it was too late to take out a gun. He subconsciously touched his wrist and grabbed a dagger. At the same time, he fell sideways and directly pressed down on a worker sitting nearby, trying to hide.
During the break, these most ordinary workers instinctively sat beside the bodyguards. They thought that this would ensure their safety, but they never thought that they would be crushed like human flesh at the critical moment.
Before the man could react, he was pressed down. Under the impact of the bodyguard, his upper body was folded and pressed into the water in a strange way.
The gray shadow opened its mouth wide and bit at nothing but air. Its upper and lower teeth closed together due to inertia, making a ‘ka’ sound. However, its raised sharp claws did not miss. The claws that were opened glinted coldly, and the sharp claws were like the tips of sharp knives. They grabbed the bodyguard’s chest.
With a tearing sound, the bodyguard’s combat uniform and flesh were torn.
The gray mutated creature’s huge body fell into the water with a ‘thump’, causing a large splash. The surrounding people who were shocked by the unexpected attack finally came to their senses when the water splashed on their bodies.
“All…”
Many people screamed in pain. The bodyguard stabbed the dagger in his hand at the gray shadow in pain, but the thick fur on the gray shadow blocked most of his attacks. In a moment of desperation, he only left a shallow wound on the gray shadow.
But that was enough.
The bodyguard’s original purpose was to use the opportunity of injuring it to block its movements and give himself a chance to escape.
He nimbly rolled to the side, turned over, and sat up, taking the opportunity to pull away by nearly half a meter.
The unlucky man who had been pressed into the water by him also instinctively groaned in pain and tried to sit up.
After the gray shadow fell into the water, it turned its head around, revealing a huge gray wolf head. Its action of turning its head caused its fluffy fur to shake, and a cold light flashed in its eyes. The next moment, it opened its mouth,’awoo’, and bit the neck of the man who had just sat up. It shook its head with force.
Before the man could see the scene in front of him clearly, his neck was bitten. When the gray wolf swung its head, its sharp teeth tore half of his throat. Blood spurted out and splashed onto the stream, dyeing it red..
