The mercenaries got off the spaceship and quickly prepared a fire around them and caught prey. Due to Du Fan's instructions, the mercenaries processed a wild pheasant they caught and gave it to Fengjiu and the others. Therefore, Qin Xin added nourishing herbs to the pheasant and boiled it into chicken soup for Fengjiu.
Under the night sky, the night breeze brought bursts of coolness. After eating, the twenty mercenaries sat around the fire and took turns to keep watch. Fengjiu went back to the cabin to rest first, and Du Fan and others also left Yingyi and Gray Wolf to keep watch.
The night passed peacefully and calmly, and they continued on their journey the next morning. Until two days later, in the evening, their spaceship stopped in a grove, and they were resting in the grove. At this time, calls for help and voices accompanied by exclamations came, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps running towards them.
"Help! Help..."
"Ah... Help..."
At the first moment, twenty mercenaries quickly protected Feng Jiu and looked cautiously in the direction of the sound. They saw several children around six or seven years old with ragged clothes running in the woods, wiping their tears as they walked. When they fell, they stood up and continued to run. When they saw Feng Jiu and others in front of them, they quickly ran in that direction.
"Help!"
Jin Yifeng couldn't help but frown when he saw that the two monks were chasing the children. The children had shocking wounds on their bodies, but even so, they were still running very fast. At this moment, a monk behind them jumped up quickly and blocked the children.
"Let me see where you can run!" said the tall and thin monk sinisterly, as if he didn't see the mercenaries and the spaceship. He approached one of the children, grabbed his collar, lifted him up and threw him heavily to the ground.
"ah!"
The child screamed, his hands and feet tucked up, and when he fell to the ground, he protected himself and rolled over, rushing towards the mercenaries, shouting in panic: "Help, save us..."
Seeing this scene, the mercenaries did not move, but just watched with frowns, secretly alert. How come there are suddenly several children being chased by monks in this place? The children only have low cultivation, but they are very fast, and they can survive the pursuit of the two monks, which shows that they are not ordinary children.
Their mission on this trip was to protect Madam Xuanyuan and take them to find Xue Linghua, so they didn't want to care about other irrelevant matters if possible.
Fengjiu was sitting by the fire roasting game. She didn't even look over there, but just roasted the meat seriously while adding spices. Before she was done, she cut off a piece with a knife and tasted it.
"Ah! Poof!"
A child was kicked in the abdomen and his body flew towards the mercenaries, spurting out a mouthful of blood. He screamed in pain, his body twitched, and he curled up instinctively.
Du Fan came out, gently waving the fan in his hand. He looked at the children and the two monks with a contemptuous smile: "If you want to fight, just do it directly. Why put on such a clumsy show?"
A monk held up a child with both hands. After hearing Du Fan's words, he got angry and threw the child towards Du Fan. At the same time when he threw the child, the child suddenly pressed down the arrow in his sleeve as he jumped out.
