Chapter 39 Shame
Under the scorching sun, the Star Dou Forest is still so cool. The Great Star Forest has existed for countless thousands of years. It has not only given birth to a wide variety of spirit beasts, but its trees are also towering into the clouds, with lush branches and leaves, which are enough to isolate the blazing heat of the sun.
"Whoosh——"
The sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded, and a black shadow rushed out. If he stepped accidentally, the branch broke, and the black shadow fell down.
The black shadow rolled on the ground and used clever strength to release the force, thus avoiding injury.
But she did not get up. Instead, she curled up and hid behind a tree. She was not tall and looked to be only ten years old, but her figure was quite hot. If an ordinary man saw her, he would definitely have wild thoughts. .
Zhu Zhuqing panted violently, his pupils were full of panic, and there were beads of sweat on his cold white cheeks. He could not recover from the panic for a long time.
Until she gradually calmed down, a feeling of shame came over her.
She actually escaped!
When she faced death for the first time, she actually chose to retreat.
Under the oppression of those fifteen spirit beasts and the stern look in the pseudonym "Tang San"'s eyes, she chose to run away!
She used to hate Dai Mubai who retreated so much. She always thought that the worst possible outcome was death. What's the big deal? Running away is the most cowardly thing to do.
But now when she really faced death, she chose to leave her two father's men behind and run away alone.
How much she hated Dai Mubai before, how much she regrets it now!
This shouldn't be the case!
She's not that cowardly!
But her still trembling arms kept telling her that she was not much better than ordinary people.
No matter how indifferent she usually behaves and how indifferent she is to life and death, at this moment, her body's reaction clearly tells her that she is still just an ordinary person who is afraid of life and death. Her figure didn't mean anything, and no matter how cold her face was, she couldn't hide the fact that she was only ten years old.
Zhu Zhuqing curled up her legs and buried her head in her knees. The fair skin on her chest was squeezed out of shape, leaving only a gap for breathing.
My hands kept shaking and didn't stop.
"Stop shaking, stop shaking! Stop shaking!" Zhu Zhuqing held down his hands and roared hysterically.
"Whoosh——"
The sound of breaking wind was quite sudden. Zhu Zhuqing's delicate body trembled, and she suddenly raised her head. Her pupils shrank to the size of needle tips. Impossible! Why so fast? ! If it were so fast, he would have escaped long ago!
Without any time to think, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly sprang out like a frightened bird, as if death was following closely behind him.
"who?!"
Zhu Zhuqing made a lot of noise, and the other party noticed it immediately. He immediately stopped, looked at the place he just passed by, and shouted angrily.
The figure rushed out quickly, and the man sneered: "Want to escape?"
Swish——
The next moment, the man suddenly disappeared from the place, and almost at the same time appeared in the direction where the figure was trying to escape, blocking Zhu Zhuqing's way.
Zhu Zhuqing immediately stopped and quickly stepped back in panic.
"Second Miss?! Why are you here?" the man asked in surprise.
When Zhu Zhuqing heard this, he had time to take a closer look at the visitor's clothes. They were exclusive to the Zhu Family Guards!
not him!
It would be better if it wasn't him...
Zhu Zhuqing's clothes were soaked with cold sweat. She breathed a sigh of relief and panted with lingering fear.
"Second Miss?" The man asked confusedly when he saw that Zhu Zhuqing didn't respond for a long time.
"Ah?" Zhu Zhuqing shuddered again and asked belatedly, "Why are you here?"
"I was ordered by the clan leader to check the body of the Direclaw Bear to see if there are soul bones." The man replied respectfully, "The clan leader just saw a quite suitable soul beast, but there was a 90,000-year-old beast next to him. Soul Beast, so I plan to wait for the opportunity.”
"Don't go!" Zhu Zhuqing said immediately, remembering those fifteen vicious dark black soul beasts.
"Huh?" The man was a little confused.
"I, I mean, take me to Zhu Zhuyun."
The man instinctively felt that something was wrong. He raised his eyes but did not see the two comrades escorting the second lady. He immediately frowned and asked: "Second lady, where are Zhu Lie and the others? Aren't they supposed to escort you? Why are you the only one? one person?"
"They..." Zhu Zhuqing opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything. She just felt that her "escape" was infinitely magnified. The other party's originally unintentional look was like a sharp blade scraping across her face. Shameful.
"Zhu Lie is dead, Zhu Jian... I don't know." Zhu Zhuqing lowered his eyes and his eyes flickered.
"Dead?" The man's eyes narrowed and he immediately guessed something and said, "Second Miss, please come with me. I will take you to the clan leader."
As he said that, the man led Zhu Zhuqing through the forest and rushed to the place where Zhu Mo and others were ambushing the soul beast. However, before they arrived, they ran into Zhu Mo's team head-on.
I saw that all of their faces were filled with relief, and Zhu Zhuyun was even more happy, with the corners of his mouth raised in satisfaction.
"Huh? Why did you come back so soon?" Zhu Mo was a little confused when he saw the person coming, and when he saw Zhu Zhuqing behind him, he was stunned again, "Zhuqing?"
"Clan leader, something happened!" The man came to Zhu Mo, bowed his head and said, "Zhu Lie should be dead. Zhu Jian doesn't know whether he is alive or dead for the time being."
Zhu Mo's eyes suddenly became sharp and he asked: "What's going on?!"
"This... villain doesn't know much about it." As he said that, he looked at Zhu Zhuqing who had calmed down.
"What happened to you?" Zhu Mo's voice towards his daughter was much gentler. Although she was not the one he loved most, he didn't like to shout at Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing folded his arms and pursed his pale lips, not knowing where to start.
Zhu Mo was patient and did not rush him. After a long time, Zhu Zhuqing organized his words and told Zhu Mo the whole incident.
After hearing this, Zhu Mo said nothing and his face was unusually gloomy. He hunted geese all day long, but he didn't expect that he would be pecked in the eye by a goose in the end. He was a great Contra, but he was deceived by a teenage boy.
No wonder he always felt that the boy's words were untrue and there was something wrong with him!
It turns out that this kid’s mouth is full of lies!
"In other words, you escaped before Zhu Lian was dead and before you even figured out his soul skills?" Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun curled up the corner of his mouth, his face full of disgust and contempt, "Sure enough, it is. A pair! Even the choices are exactly the same."
Zhu Zhuqing raised her head suddenly. She knew who Zhu Zhuyun was talking about. Although she herself despised her own actions, for some reason she found it difficult to accept Zhu Zhuyun's sarcasm.
His nails dug into the palms of his hands, and an indescribable anger burst out from his heart. Zhu Zhuqing's cold eyes seemed to have surging anger.
Zhu Zhuyun smiled contemptuously and glanced sideways at Zhu Zhuqing. He didn't care about Zhu Zhuqing's anger at all: "Hey? Are you trying to fight with me?"
