Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 145 Entering the Mountain

The scorching sun could not penetrate the dense branches and leaves of the forest, but Xiao Guoer did not feel the heat. He even felt a little cool under the shade of the trees.

Years of dead branches and leaves were stepped on, making a crackling sound.

She observed everything on the mountain slowly and carefully.

Thick tree trunks, jagged rocks, passing hares, spiders and unknown insects hanging on the trees, and the sharp cries of flying birds...

This is a deep mountain forest. It is not surprising that there is a virus that can infect the plague in such a place.

What is strange is, what kind of thing could carry a virus that could infect half of the village with the plague while leaving the other half safe and sound?

The six-member team walked in silence, and from time to time they could see small animals such as pheasants, hares, and deer running and jumping.

The villagers led the way and occasionally reminded them where there were traps and told them not to step on them.

"There are often wild boars here, so be careful. If you encounter one, don't think you can deal with it or run away. You must climb a tree, and it has to be a big and sturdy tree! When a wild boar gets angry, it is scarier than a tiger or a lion!"

Although everyone kept it in mind, they didn't think that such an unfortunate thing would happen to them.

The further Xiao Guoer walked, the more anxious she became. She couldn't see anything special in the forest, and she had no idea what the cause of the plague was.

The first person to discover the abnormality was the villager who led the way.

A terrified shout suddenly echoed in the quiet forest, "It's a wild boar! Climb the tree!"

After the villager shouted, he quickly found a thick tree trunk that two people could hug together, and climbed up it neatly.

The others were stunned for a moment, and saw from afar a black beast staggering towards this direction.

This unfortunate thing just happened to them!

The guards were agile and followed the villagers' instructions and found trees nearby to climb up.

Xiaoguoer also knows some martial arts skills, so climbing a tree is not a problem for him.

But the problem is that her boyfriend doesn't know Kung Fu!

Without thinking, Xiao Guoer pulled Tang Jingchen under the big tree beside her and only had time to utter one word, "Crawl!"

Holding Tang Jingchen with both hands, he climbed up. Seeing this, Shun'er also hurriedly lifted his young master and put him on his shoulders.

Tang Jingchen's face was pale and cold sweat was pouring down. He knew that this was a critical moment and there was no chance to hesitate. Shun'er was nimble enough to climb the tree by himself, and Xiao Guo'er even had some self-defense skills. He was the only one who needed help from others!

He put his feet hard on Shun'er's shoulders and held on to the rough tree trunk with his hands to climb up.

Xiao Guoer followed closely behind, and the two of them successfully climbed onto a branch.

But there is no place for Shun'er.

Seeing the wild boar getting closer, Shun'er had no choice but to climb up another tree nearest to him.

Before Shun'er could catch his breath, the wild boar with gray-brown fur arrived under the tree.

Only then did everyone see the appearance of the wild boar clearly. It was very large, not comparable to ordinary domestic pigs. Its body was covered with black bristles, and its long snout curled up with two sharp and ferocious fangs. The fangs were very long. Given the size and ferocious strength of this wild boar, if it hit a person, the consequences would be disastrous. No one could withstand such an attack!

Everyone in the tree gasped and held their breath, hoping that the wild boar would leave as soon as possible.

But it is obvious that this wild boar not only looks ferocious, but also has a high IQ.

It was seen slowly circling around the tree where several people were standing. Just when everyone was wondering what it was doing, it stopped under Shun'er's tree.

That tree trunk is not thick!

In a hurry, Shun'er only had time to choose such a thin tree trunk.

Xiao Guoer was horrified as she watched the wild boar, which was stronger than a tiger or a lion, take a few steps back before suddenly rushing forward and crashing into Shuner's tree trunk!

Shuner's trunk shook violently with its force.

"Ah!" Shun'er let out a shrill cry of fear.

Tang Jingchen's body also shook violently. He held onto the branch tightly and called out, "Shun'er!"

The wild boar failed in its first attempt and actually took a few steps back, then tried to charge forward again!

Shun'er couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears, "Master! Help!"

Veins bulged on Tang Jingchen's hands, and sweat dripped down his forehead. He didn't know if it flowed into his eyes, but bloodshot appeared in his eyes.

Xiao Guoer was extremely anxious. The tree could not withstand the blows of the wild boar. If it continued like this, the tree would surely be broken and Shuner would surely die!

She shouted loudly to the nearby trees, "My lords, you are all very skilled in martial arts. We may be able to kill this wild boar together! Please save a life!"

The other three guards on the tree looked at each other in bewilderment, and heard Xiao Guoer hurriedly say, "The Eighth Prince ordered you to protect Young Master Tang! You are responsible for guarding him, how can you stand by and watch him die?"

At this time, one of the guards said, "If Young Master Tang is in danger, we must rescue him."

The implication was that the person in danger now was just a servant, not worthy of them risking their lives to rescue him.

Tang Jingchen's fingers were clasped on the rough branches, which were slowly seeping out blood. He spoke in a hoarse voice, "If you can save my life, I am willing to pay you a thousand gold coins!"

Shun'er was so scared that he was crying for his parents, and his body was shaking like a sieve, and he was about to fall down.

When the three guards heard the huge amount of gold, their eyes lit up. They were hesitating whether to work together to rescue the boy, but they saw that the wild boar suddenly went crazy for some reason, making a low roar, "Lu, Lu", and hit Shun'er's tree trunk even more violently.

The three guards wanted to choose a suitable time to take action, but unexpectedly the wild boar suddenly went crazy. For a moment, they had to wait and see if there would be a better opportunity later.

Xiao Guoer looked at the tree that had been slightly tilted by the wild boar's impact and was so anxious that she broke out in a sweat. She no longer cared whether her next move would further anger the wild boar or backfire, causing more serious consequences.

The dagger for self-defense on her wrist was ready to go. She chose the right moment, exerted force on the muscles of her arm and wrist, and the dagger shot towards the ferocious wild boar with her force.

Her dagger was too small compared to the wild boar's body. If it only pierced the outer layer of flesh, it would not only have no effect, but would also make the wild boar even more violent.

Fortunately, Shun'er's tree was very close to their tree, only three or two steps away.

The pig was close to her, too, close enough for her to aim at its fierce eyes.
