Chapter 178 Your leg is beyond saving!
Chapter 178 Your leg is beyond saving!
Abandoning the horse meant taking a gamble, and Sun Cheng immediately began to climb upwards using both hands and feet.
The beast tide followed closely behind, and several brown bears stopped under the tree where Sun Cheng was.
A huge brown bear with bloodshot eyes and white breath coming out of its mouth was clearly exhausted from its recent run.
Its four paws still had traces of undried blood and bits of meat clinging to them.
These were all left behind by trampling the ferocious beasts that the generals had just shot down!
Its limbs are very powerful, leaving deep footprints in the snow, and every hair on its body is shiny and smooth.
Roar--
With a roar, it began to climb upwards using both its hands and feet.
Sun Cheng hid among the giant trees, watching the brown bear climbing the tree with a tense expression.
He carried a sword and a bow and arrows at his waist. In such a dangerous moment, Sun Cheng found a thick branch and sat on it to steady himself.
Draw back the bow and arrow and aim it at the beasts below.
He had made up his mind that if the bear could climb up, he would shoot an arrow through its throat!
If you can't climb up, then it's safe up in the tree for now.
Zhou Wei glanced back at Sun Cheng in the tree and breathed a sigh of relief.
“Princess, those surrounding Captain Sun are all brown bears. These bears are not as good climbers as black bears.”
"I think the method of climbing trees is feasible. Why don't we have the generals quickly find suitable trees to climb?"
The eldest princess also turned around and saw the black bear that Zhou Wei had mentioned appear.
In just over ten seconds, the black bear had climbed several meters high, and Sun Cheng had no choice but to continue climbing.
Once he had created some distance from the black bear, Sun Cheng immediately drew his bow and shot at the bear's eyes!
Awooo————
The arrow was powerful, piercing one of the black bear's eyes. It let out a scream and fell directly from the tree.
The massive body crashed into the ground, kicking up bursts of snowflakes!
The excruciating pain from having its eyes pierced by a bullet caused the black bear to rampage wildly under the tree, attacking anything living it could see.
Some lynxes ran too fast and bumped into the black bear, only to be slapped to the ground by its paw!
Having witnessed the entire process, the eldest princess immediately ordered, "All generals, listen to my command! Climb the trees! Bring your bows and arrows and your swords."
"If anyone is short of arrows, the rest of us will help each other to stop the black bears from climbing the trees. Once we survive the beast tide, we will be safe."
Upon hearing this voice, the military officers, for some reason, all obeyed without question.
Even soldiers like Qian Tao and Feng Polu, who had once followed the Blue-Faced War God, experienced a kind of illusion in a daze.
On horseback, the figure of the eldest princess overlapped with that of the war god who bravely fought the enemy!
The two shook their heads simultaneously, trying to banish the thought from their minds.
It's simply too absurd!
How could the person who has been missing for several years be the princess in front of us?
They must be so obsessed with the Blue-Faced War God that they've become somewhat possessed.
Following the princess's instructions, everyone searched for suitable trees, abandoned their horses, and climbed them!
Before abandoning her horse, the princess patted the little red horse and said, "Little Red, run for your life! Run as far as you can."
Then, together with Zhou Wei, they climbed the same giant tree!
The third prince lagged behind and also set his sights on Zhou Wei and the eldest princess.
Just as he was about to approach the tree, preparing to stand on the horse's back and use the horse's strength to jump,
The horse, which had been pricked many times, finally couldn't hold on any longer, its legs buckled, and it knelt directly on the ground!
This caused the Third Prince, who was gathering his strength, to suddenly go limp.
He lost his grip on the tree and fell off his horse.
His body slammed into the snow, and although it didn't hurt much, the Third Prince's head buzzed.
He secretly thought he was doomed!
"Royal sister, help!"
The third prince fell to the ground in the snow and howled in pain, desperately trying to stand up, but the beast horde so close at hand made his legs go weak.
He could even see the menacing fangs of a tiger not far behind him!
Qian Tao and the others were in a great hurry, but going down to rescue people at this time would be tantamount to courting death.
In a moment of urgency, Zhou Wei shouted, "Princess, you draw your bow and help me, I'll go and pull the Third Prince up!"
Zhou Wei slid headfirst down a distance from the height, then quickly took out the soft whip from her waist.
This was snatched from Jiang Nianmei back then.
Zhou Wei discovered that the whip was made of a special material; it not only hurt when it hit, but it was also extremely resilient, so she kept it.
"Third Prince, grab the whip!"
The Third Prince looked up when he heard the sound and saw Zhou Wei hanging upside down on his head.
Instantly, tears streamed down the Third Prince's face.
Although this lowly maidservant hurts terribly every time she hits him, she's really capable when it comes to getting things done!
In such a dangerous situation, how could they dare to risk lowering the tree to save him?
“Zhou Dianjun, I will remember your great kindness. From now on, if you tell me to go east, I will never go west…”
"What the hell are you talking nonsense about? What time is it?"
Zhou Wei was speechless. They were in a real bind, and this guy was still talking nonsense.
The soft whip was lashed out, and the Third Prince grabbed it.
Zhou Wei wrapped the whip around her right foot, preparing to use the immense power of her golden right foot to pull the Third Prince up.
But in the instant the hands and feet were exchanged, the beast tide had already arrived!
A lynx that was incredibly fast suddenly appeared out of nowhere and bit the Third Prince's leg.
"what!!!"
The third prince let out a scream, drew his long sword from his waist, and slashed at the lynx.
Unexpectedly, the lynx reacted very quickly, releasing its grip and jumping to the side, causing the Third Prince's sword to fall to the ground.
"Quickly pull him! Zhou Dianjun!"
Zhou Wei didn't delay any longer. She used her right foot to easily pull the Third Prince up, but halfway up, she felt tremendous resistance.
She looked down and was startled.
The Third Prince's right leg was bitten by a brown bear!
The brown bear's teeth were embedded in the flesh of the third prince's calf, and its huge head swayed and tore from side to side, causing the third prince to shake violently.
This is animal nature; once they bite their prey, they won't let go.
In addition to their enormous bite force, the tearing force generated by their head swinging from side to side can also cause great damage to their prey!
Just as the flesh on the third prince's calf was being torn apart, the brown bear's sharp claws were still about to grab his body.
With a fierce determination, Zhou Wei pulled hard with her right foot, lifting the brown bear off the ground as well.
"Zhou Wei, my leg is about to break!"
Zhou Wei was also helpless. This brown bear weighed at least 200 pounds, and it was considered one of the smaller brown bears.
With something weighing over 200 pounds hanging from its calf, it was bound to break!
But since the brown bear wouldn't let go, Zhou Wei had no choice but to pull the Third Prince up first.
Otherwise, if the ferocious beasts come from behind, the Third Prince will die even faster!
"Princess, shoot it blind!"
The princess drew her heavy bow to its fullest extent, but hesitated to release the arrow.
"Yue Lin, once I fire this arrow, your leg will be crippled."
The princess's words were true; the immense power of the heavy bow was something the brown bear simply could not withstand.
Whether it will let go immediately or bite even harder in a frenzy, no one can predict!
"Sister, forget about your leg, get this thing down first!"
The Third Prince is quite open-minded. Even if he loses his leg, he is still the Third Prince. But if he loses his body, he is just a dead man!
Upon hearing this, the princess no longer hesitated and released her grip on the bow.
Whoosh—
The long arrow flew out immediately!
