However, in the next moment, her eyes widened. The arrow suddenly turned in another direction, and with a swish, the arrowhead finally nailed into another tree.
Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief and looked up at the man squatting on the tree.
“What are you doing here?” If she hadn’t reacted quickly, the arrow would have pierced through his head. “Why didn’t you say anything? I almost injured you by accident.”
Shao Qingyuan’s gaze landed on the crossbow in her hand. He quickly retracted his gaze and looked at the girl’s face again.
He did not say anything. Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows and said, “Yesterday, my brother came back and said that you saved him and did not let anyone bully him. Thank you.”
Shao Qingyuan still did not speak. He squatted on the tree and did not move.
This time, Gu Yundong finally understood why people called him a wolf cub. This person looked at people like a wolf with a glint in his eyes.
It was as if in his eyes, you were prey with nowhere to run.
He did not speak, and Gu Yundong would not ask for a rebuff. She nodded and continued walking.
After that delay just now, the rabbit had already disappeared.
Only when Gu Yundong’s figure gradually disappeared into the distance did Shao Qingyuan jump down from the tree.
Gu Yundong was not very familiar with the Nine Tigers Mountain and did not have much hunting experience.
After the apocalypse, animals had all mutated, so their habits and footprints were naturally different. Moreover, fighting mutated animals was basically a teamwork, and others were responsible for determining the direction. Therefore, she could not rely on the traces of animals on the road to determine which side had prey. She could only rely on her senses.
However, after walking for a while, she felt a rustling sound behind her, as if someone was following her.
As expected, when she turned around, she saw Shao Qingyuan walking over.
Gu Yundong stood still and asked him, “Are you going up the mountain for hunting too? If you’re going this way, I’ll change my route.”
Seeing that he was silent, Gu Yundong took it as a tacit agreement and turned to walk to the other side.
Unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, Shao Qingyuan’s voice came from behind. “There’s a wild boar cave not far ahead.”
Gu Yundong’s eyes lit up. Wild boar. That was a big one. She would definitely earn a lot of silver if she sold it.
Hmm? Wait, a wild boar cave. There should be more than a wild boar inside. Her small arms and legs were not good enough.
Moreover, she was not familiar with the terrain and was not confident.
It was a little regretful, but Gu Yundong still turned her head and said to Shao Qingyuan, “So you’re here to tell me that there’s danger over there. Thank you.” This person was not like the wolf cub that others said.
Look, he helped her brother yesterday and came to warn her today. Wasn’t that quite a heartwarming action?
It was probably because he didn’t speak much that people misunderstood.
“No.” Shao Qingyuan looked at her steadily. “I can’t handle it alone. I want to work with you. The crossbow in your hand is quite useful. It should be able to help.”
Gu Yundong almost choked on her own saliva. So she was the one who had misunderstood.
“I have a way to sell wild boars. We’ll split the money,” Shao Qingyuan said.
Gu Yundong was very tempted. Wild boars seemed to be able to seduce people. They swayed in front of her, making her lose interest in small shrimps like pheasants in the basket.
She pursed her lips and lowered her head to think about it.
Shao Qingyuan looked at the top of her head and smiled faintly..
