"Captain Li, it's the end here. There is a canyon in front of us. We can't get through."

One of the search and rescue team immediately reported.

"It shouldn't be. What Yang Xin told us is this direction. Why is there no one?"

Captain Li was frowning, but at this moment, near the edge of a cliff not far away, a scarlet bloodstain attracted his attention.

Seeing this, he immediately ran over with a flashlight.

"There's a lot of blood, Chen Xu probably..."

"It can't be Chen Xu's. If it's really him, then there should be a dead body here. Wolves can't carry away such a heavy weight."

Captain Li directly interrupted the suspicion of the team members, "On the contrary, the wolf corpse was easily taken away, so it is probably wolf blood."

"But, if it's not his, where can he go?"

The team member just finished this sentence.

Suddenly, another team member shouted: "Captain Li, I found a flashlight and a dagger on the edge of the cliff!"

After listening, Captain Li rushed over immediately.

When other search and rescue team members saw these two objects, they subconsciously glanced at the edge of the cliff, and murmured, "Could it be..."

Captain Li's expression also changed, "Oh no..."

After finishing speaking, he immediately lay down on the edge of the cliff, and shone down with a flashlight. There were no corpses underneath, only a river, "This should be... a river of mud!"

"Great, with the river here, Chen Xu may not die, Xiao Zhang, prepare the rope, let's go down and search carefully!"

"Yes!"

As soon as the voice fell, the team member called Xiao Zhang immediately returned to the car and brought a bundle of professional-grade mountaineering safety ropes...

the other side.

Lu Yao walked for half an hour with Chen Xu on her back.

During this period, she was tired and out of breath, and stopped several times in the middle.

There was no way, for a woman like her, it was still a bit difficult to carry Chen Xu on her back. In addition, she was already physically weak, so naturally she couldn't last long.

Fortunately, there are flat roads along the river, and there are no ups and downs in the terrain, so it is relatively easy to walk.

Finally, after another 10 minutes, she finally walked out of the canyon and came to a barren mountain.

After seeing the dead tree, Lu Yao randomly found a leeward position, put Chen Xu down, and then began to collect dry grass and branches.

Since she and Chen Xu had survived in Devil City for two days, she was quite good at collecting supplies.

After 10 minutes, she came back again and set the dry grass on fire with a flint and steel.

After the fire was lit up, Lu Yao immediately felt much warmer.

"By the way, Chen Xu said that wet clothes must be taken off and dried as soon as possible, otherwise, wearing them on the body will continue to take away heat, and it is easy to catch a cold and get sick!"

Thinking of this, she immediately ran to Chen Xu's side and took off Chen Xu's shirt.

All of a sudden, against the backdrop of the firelight and shadows, his incomparably strong and muscular body appeared extremely charming.

But Lu Yao found that there was a piece of white gauze and bandage wrapped around his left shoulder.

It seems that he suffered a lot of injuries during this live broadcast.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

So, next, Lu Yao moved her hands to the bottom again, but just when she was about to untie Chen Xu's belt, a trace of hesitation and shyness surfaced on her cheeks.

Chapter 552 I Can't Lose Anymore

This……

Lu Yao couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

Instead, she looked at Chen Xu's face again, seeing that he was still unconscious with his eyes closed, she couldn't help feeling distressed, so she pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind, and reached for his waistband.

It's important to save people.

Chen Xu's trouser belt is the most common military belt, with simple pin buckle clips and a durable dark brown leather strap, covered with a lot of blood, most of which belonged to desert wolves.

After opening.

Compared with the shocking wounds on his upper body, the skin of his legs did not have any scars.

However, when Lu Yao saw her calf, the scene in front of her made her nose sore.

On the back of his calf, above the gastrocnemius, all those veins protruded, like earthworms, intertwined on the skin.

Further down, the entire underside of the calf extended all the way to the top of the foot, and all of them turned purple. This was obviously the result of a large number of blood vessels ruptured, causing blood stasis to accumulate under the dermis.

The most frightening thing was that both of Chen Xu's ankles were swollen, like a fat fish.

Lu Yao stared, and subconsciously covered her open mouth with her hands. She couldn't imagine how much reaction force Chen Xu's legs endured when he fell.

If the ankle joint hadn't suffered a major cartilage contusion, it would have been impossible for so much interstitial fluid to seep out and produce such a large edema!

So, when she took off her trouser legs, she immediately became cautious, for fear of touching her swollen ankle.

After helping Chen Xu take off, now it's Lu Yao's turn.

But she was too cold, even leaning against the fire, when a slight breeze blew occasionally, she still couldn't help shivering.

But she still took off the windbreaker, and there was a white T-shirt inside.

However, just as she took off her coat, a chill suddenly came from her back.

This coldness is different from physical, but spiritual.

That feeling, as if being watched by someone!

Subconsciously, Lu Yao immediately turned her head.

Sure enough, not far in front of her, a canine creature with a head less than one meter long and fifty or sixty centimeters high was standing there, staring at her intently.

It has brown and black hair all over its body, and it is very dirty. It is covered with all kinds of dust and mud, and even stained with blood.

Yes, blood stains.

Especially on both sides of its dog's snout, a large amount of plasma has dried and turned black, it seems to be a cruel medal declaring a carnivore.

Compared with the desert wolf, its body size is obviously a lot smaller, and its dog snout is very short, but its ferocity is not inferior to the former one at all.

From the looks of it, it should be attracted by the smell of blood on Chen Xu's body.

Is it a desert wolf?

For a moment, Lu Yao couldn't help feeling a little scared. After all, Chen Xu was seriously injured and unconscious.

In case it calls other wolves, then the consequences...

Does God really want us to die here tonight?

She bit her lip, looked back at Chen Xu, who was covered in bruises and was still in a coma, and then at the beige windbreaker, and slowly closed her tearful eyes.

No, I've already lost once;

This time, I can't lose anymore!

The next moment, Lu Yao opened her eyes, pulled out the outdoor straight knife from her waist, and walked towards the unknown wolf.

That's right, she didn't defend passively, because she was afraid that the dog wolf would call other companions after it ran away.

Therefore, for the safety of Chen Xu and her, she must kill it!

Seeing her approaching, the wolf's limbs moved a bit, its canine teeth bared out immediately, and a "cluck" warning sound followed.

If it was before, Lu Yao would definitely panic when she saw this scene.

But now, instead of panicking, she methodically carried the straight knife and continued walking towards it.

She couldn't back down, and she couldn't back down.

Because Chen Xu is right behind her, if she gets scared, then Chen Xu will be in danger!

"The hunting instinct of general carnivores will select the vulnerable parts of the prey. The places with the highest attack frequency are basically the neck, heart, and abdomen."

While walking, Lu Yao recalled what Chen Xu had said.

At this time, the distance between the two sides was less than five meters.

No matter for humans or animals, this distance is basically within the threat zone!

"Hey—!"

The next second, the unknown wolf stared at its hind legs, and suddenly rushed towards Lu Yao.

The distance of five meters can be said to be fleeting.

After a short while, it had already jumped in front of Lu Yao, and at this time, she had just realized it, and it was already very difficult to dodge it!

In fact, Lu Yao didn't intend to dodge at all.

She knew that with her own strength, she couldn't do Chen Xu's dexterous fighting at all. Therefore, in order to be able to attack the wolfhound [-]% and guarantee to kill it, she had to let it get close.

Yes, she is using her body as bait!

In a split second, the moment the wolf dog pounced in front of Lu Yao, she suddenly pulled out her left arm and stood horizontally in front of her chest.

Just hear the "click"!

The wolfhound's canines just bit down on her slender forearm!

At the same time, a sharp pain came.

"what--!"

Lu Yao let out a scream, and her body subconsciously fell backwards, but there was no fear in her eyes. On the contrary, her eyes sharpened, and she held the straight knife in her right hand, and slammed it into the wolf dog's abdomen. !

Puff puff puff!

She almost used the severe pain as strength, and while shouting, she stabbed several times like crazy.

This is what she learned from Chen Xu's battle live broadcast. Most creatures, even people, cannot die if the knife is not stabbed in the right place. Therefore, in order to ensure the possibility of death, it is necessary to make up the knife!

In the end, Lu Yao didn't even have the strength.

But the highly tense nerves made her right hand subconsciously repeat the previous movements.

"Lu Yao, stop it..."

Chapter 553 Chen Xu, I...

Suddenly, a deep and hoarse voice came from behind Lu Yao.

This sound is...

Chen Xu!

He woke up?

Hearing Chen Xu's voice, Lu Yao felt as if struck by lightning, her hand movements froze immediately, and she turned her head slowly.

Through the light of the fire, she vaguely saw that Chen Xu was struggling to prop up his upper body with his hands, grinning and looking at herself with a painful expression.

"Chen Xu..."

Lu Yao murmured and was stunned for a long while, then hurriedly got up, ran towards him, and asked with concern: "Chen Xu, how are you, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's just an ankle concussion."

Chen Xu shook his head, looked at the dirty blood all over her body, and asked, "What about you?"

After hearing Chen Xu say "it's okay", Lu Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then, when she heard him ask a question, she subconsciously covered her left hand back, "I'm fine."

"Let me see!"

Although Chen Xu was injured and very tired, his observation skills did not weaken.

Seeing Lu Yao's "concealing action", she immediately knew that it was not that simple.
