Apparently, it wanted to attack her secretly. If Gu Xijiu was not quick-witted enough, she would have been bitten into half by its tongue and become its food if she was not fast enough.
The monster went for wool and came home shorn. After its tongue was injured, it kept making strange noises. Its body flipped over and fell down the tree …
The smell of blood was lingering in the air. Gu Xijiu knew that once the smell of blood came out, the other beasts would be here in a moment! This place was definitely not safe!
Fortunately, she had identified the direction and immediately teleported away.
Less than half a minute after she left, strange noises could be heard from the surroundings. As the trees swayed, more than a dozen beasts emerged from all directions …
It was a feast.
The injured anteater was torn into pieces by countless sharp claws and mouths.
Of course, the beasts would also bite each other when they were fighting for food. Once blood was seen, even their own kind would come to attack them. More than a dozen beasts fought fiercely, and the trees in the area were shaking like a pot of boiling porridge.
After a while, the place was in a mess, and only a few skeletons were left.
A young Confucian scholar suddenly appeared at this place without a sound. He circled the place as if he was looking for something. After a while, he found a strand of cloth. He placed it at the tip of his nose and sniffed it. His eyebrows twitched.
The little girl seemed to have taken a short rest here and then ran towards the southwest! That was the direction to the fourth peak!
Was she running away unintentionally? Or did she misunderstand the Pointing Bird?
Such a smart little girl actually made such a stupid mistake! What an idiot …
When he was about to turn around, a big snake suddenly coiled on a big tree behind him. It opened its mouth and rushed towards him!
The young scholar did not even turn around. With a slap of his palm, a ray of light flashed, and the big snake immediately turned into ashes and disappeared in the air …
...
Gu Xijiu felt that she had chosen the right direction!
As she teleported in one direction, the beasts in the forest were not as dense as before.
She also had a chance to take a breather and was no longer chased by beasts whenever she appeared.
Moreover, the trees were a lot taller, and the gap between the trees was a lot wider.
Originally, there were thorns between the tall trees, and there was no place for her to stand.
But now the thorns were gone. Between the trees were jagged rocks, and not even weeds grew.
When she was looking down from the sky, she had secretly measured the distance between the third peak and the second peak. It was about seventy to eighty miles. At this speed, she should be able to rush out in another two to four hours!
Teleportation was not allowed in this dense forest, because there were not only trees here, but also swamps that could drown people in an instant, flowing Black Water Bay, and even the strange blue flower forest that emitted poisonous miasma. If she teleported without seeing clearly, once she entered those places, it would be harder than ascending to heaven to escape.
To be on the safe side, Gu Xijiu would always scan her surroundings from afar before she teleported. In such a dark forest, she could only see about one mile at a time. Therefore, every time she teleported, she would be able to cover a distance of around 500 meters.
Gu Xijiu could not see the true color of the sky in the dense forest, so she could only judge the time based on her breathing rate. It should be around midnight now.
She ate a little more dry food and drank a few mouthfuls of water. She was calculating how long it would take for her to get out.
