"Who are you? Where is this place?"
Since the other party had no intention of attacking, Foonie also spoke in English. Then, she repeated it in five or six languages that she had learned over the years.
However, the man opposite her obviously did not understand, because after she spoke, his eyes seemed to be even more vigilant.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'm leaving.”Foonie said.
She had no choice. The man in front of her was too strong. She was not confident that she could defeat him.
Now was the best time to leave.
After waiting for a while and seeing no reaction from the other party, Foonie first sheathed her sword, but her right hand still held the hilt tightly to prevent a sudden attack.
The man was still looking at her warily, but the oddly-shaped dagger in his hand was slowly placed on his waist.
He should be fine.
Foonie thought.
Then, she slowly retreated. When she was a safe distance away, she turned around and ran. With a few jumps, she merged into the forest.
……
……
Ye Qing was stunned for a moment as he looked in the direction that the woman had disappeared.
This woman…was too fast!
When the other party spoke to him earlier, he could roughly understand some of the words, but he could not understand the meaning of the entire sentence, so he chose to remain silent.
When the other party started to retreat, Ye Qing roughly understood what she meant.
He did not chase after her. It was not that he could not catch up, but he did not know how many people there were on the other side. Moreover, he was a little worried that this was a trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain. If he chased after this woman, her accomplices would run into the cave and harm Zhao Ling, that would be tragic.
However, he did not move. Instead, he gave a look to a bush not far away. After that, the bush shook for a moment before it returned to normal.
It was Little Black. When the woman appeared, Ye Qing's sense of foreboding had increased greatly. Little Black had some kind of special connection with him. He had sensed it at that time and hurriedly rushed over. However, Ye Qing stopped it and made it hide at the side.
It was just right to let it track him. This black panther was known for its speed. In addition, this was a forest. If he threw this fellow in, it would be like a tiger with wings, like a fish in water.
Ignoring the woman, Ye Qing packed the water and hurried back.
But this time, he did not go back directly. Instead, he began to circle around.
Only after confirming that it was enough to confuse others did he choose a shortcut back.
Even so, on the way back, Ye Qing was very careful not to leave any footprints on the ground, so that others could follow his footprints and find his hiding place.
As he walked, he was annoyed.
He had taken every step carefully and carefully, but he did not expect that there would still be a loophole.
He had thought that moving away from the cave would be far from danger, so when he went to cut the bamboo, he had cleared a path from the spring for convenience. Now, this path had undoubtedly become a direction sign, telling his enemies which way to go.
However, Ye Qing couldn't care less at this time. He first had to confirm Zhao Ling's safety.
As for the future, it seemed that he had to consider the system's mission.
Otherwise, if he put everything in the same cave and was discovered by others, it would be a small matter if the things were gone. If someone suddenly attacked him while he was sleeping, he would be completely finished.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing's speed increased even more.
The journey that would have taken him about half an hour to get there took him only fifteen minutes, including the time he took to circle around.
Zhao Ling had just finished cooking dinner. Seeing him return, she revealed a smile."You've worked hard. Come and eat quickly.”
Ye Qing put down the water and looked at her seriously.""Did you notice anything unusual here just now?”
"Abnormal? What do you mean by abnormal?”Zhao Ling was dumbfounded by his question.
Ye Qing heaved a sigh of relief. He took out the bamboo cup he had made yesterday and poured a full cup of water from another bucket. He gulped it down.
He didn't put down the cup until it was empty. Then, he briefly explained his encounter at the spring.
"What? You mean you saw a living person?"
Zhao Ling's attention was not on the same channel as Ye Qing's. She immediately said,"Did you see where she went? Could he be on the same plane as us?”
Ye Qing shook his head speechlessly and said weakly,""Little sister, what's wrong with your brain? Didn't I tell you? That woman looks like a pirate from the Middle Ages. She even has an antique sword on her and knows how to use it. She almost killed me. Do you think she was on the same plane as us?”
"What is it? Almost killed you? Are you hurt? Let me see."
Now that Zhao Ling heard it clearly, she immediately became noisy again. She lifted Ye Qing's clothes and wanted to do a full-body examination.
Ye Qing rolled his eyes and stopped her. Then, he said seriously,"Don't worry, I'm fine. She ran away when she saw that I had a military saber in my hand.”
"She ran away…Oh, right, you said that she had spoken to you before, and she even changed her language halfway through, right?”Zhao Ling said.
" Yes," Ye Qing said after some thought." I heard English, French, and a few other languages, but I don't understand what she said…"
Zhao Ling tilted her head and thought for a while." Then do you think there's a possibility that she actually wanted to negotiate with you, but because of the language barrier, she left to avoid deepening the misunderstanding?"”
"Probably." Ye Qing said. He thought that he had already asked Little Black to follow him. It would be great if he could see what Little Black saw like Little Blue.
He tried it with his eyes closed. He didn't expect it to work, so he was excited.
Little Black had followed him for so long, and to be honest, Ye Qing had not realized this.
The main thing was that Little Blue was sent directly to him by the system. He would not be surprised if it had any strange functions.
Little Black was different. He had spent a lot of effort to subdue it. Who would try this for no reason?
In Blackie's eyes, the woman seemed to have stopped moving because Blackie did not move either. It hid behind a bush and observed through the gaps of the leaves.
The woman squatted on the ground, looking for something.
After looking around, Ye Qing felt that this place was a little familiar. After recalling for a while, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
This woman…was actually looking at his footprints!
Furthermore, he was pointing at something in the air as he looked. It was obvious that he was trying to determine the direction!
At this moment, Ye Qing was very glad that he had deliberately circled around the area and sent Blackie out when he came back. After taking a shortcut, he had also carefully covered up the traces. Otherwise, if he had come back directly like a fool and this woman had followed the footprints to find him here…Ye Qing could not imagine that he would wake up halfway through his sleep and suddenly have a cold and sharp sword pressed against his throat.
