Ancient natural disaster: The whole family went to escape together

Chapter 161 Moving away

Su Buyi pulled out the wooden crutch stuck in the soil, held it in his right hand and reached outside the tent.

Now that the snow was getting brighter, and Su Buyi always had good eyesight, he could clearly see the true face of the depression.

This depression is slightly long, about the size of a palm, facing their tent, and looks like a human footprint.

But what makes Su Buyi feel strange is that there is only this one footprint around the tent, and the rest of the snow is flat without any holes.

When did this "footprint" appear? How long has it been there, and who is the owner of the "footprints"?

Su Buyi didn't dare to be careless and quickly woke up Su Bujing, "Sister, wake up quickly, there are footprints outside."

Su Buyi took some sleeping pills. Logically speaking, she should be in a deep sleep. She couldn't be woken up by just shouting, but as soon as Su Buyi made a sound, she suddenly woke up.

Su Bujing gasped for air as if escaping from the quagmire, "What...footprints?"

Su Buyi said: "I just wanted to see the situation outside as usual, and I saw a depression about one foot away from our tent."

"The depression is about two circles larger than my palm. It looks like a footprint. The pointed end is facing our tent, but I'm not sure."

Su Buying opened the quilt, threw his boots and rushed out. Sure enough, he saw the footprints, appearing alone on the snow.

Su Bujing's head suddenly became clear. He immediately took out the dagger from his ankle, leaned over and looked around cautiously.

There was no obstruction around, and when he glanced around, he could see nothing but rolling black snow. Su Bujing didn't notice anything.

Su Bujing's eyes immediately moved down, and his gaze fell firmly on the footprints. As soon as he looked at them, his pupils suddenly trembled, "Brother, they are indeed footprints."

Su Buying compared it with his own feet, "It looks like a man's foot... But, how come there is only one printed? Could it be that he walks on one leg? There is no shelter nearby..."

Just when Su Bujing was secretly wondering, Su Buyi stood up and urged: "Come in quickly, don't stay outside."

Although there is no suspicious person outside now, anyone will subconsciously think that it is not safe outside at this moment.

Su Bujing walked away and walked into the tent in a few steps. "Brother, how long has that footprint been there?"

"I don't know when it appeared. I saw it as soon as I lifted the cloth, and then I called you."

The air fell into a long silence.

The head of the footprints is facing their tent, which shows that the owner of the footprints once faced them, and the distance between the two parties was only one foot away...

But the brother and sister had no idea about this stranger who had discovered them but didn't show up, and might even be spying on them secretly.

Just imagine, when they are closing their eyes and resting, there is a person standing on the snow outside, separated by a cloth, staring at them motionlessly, and he can break in with just a lift of his foot...

After pondering for a moment, Su Buyi suppressed the bristling hairs and took a deep breath, "I can confirm that I did not hear footsteps or see people's reflections on the cloth when I was awake."

The implication is: the person's appearance was silent, with no shadow or movement.

"Hmm... and the strange thing is that there is only one footprint." Su Buying gestured with his hand, "I mean, the snow around the footprints is clean, there is no indication of the way in and out, it's like out of thin air It appears the same.”

Su Bujing paused, stared into Su Buyi's eyes and said, "Are those really human footprints?" Su Buyi's eyelashes trembled, "Well, it's also possible that that piece of soil is compared to other soils. It needs to be loose, it doesn’t matter if it happens to be pressed down by the heavy snow.”

"What else could it be if they weren't human footprints? There are no animals here."

Su Bujing didn't answer. If she were in this situation normally, she would definitely use her fists to solve it. But now she has lost her aura and her eldest brother also has inconvenient legs and feet. To put it harshly, they are now a typical example of a weak and disabled person. , what to fight for?

At the moment, the enemy is in the dark and they are in the light. They have no idea about the opponent's strength or the number of people. If that person just came to explore the way, is he leaving to bring his friends from the snow mountain?

"We must move out of here immediately." Su Bujing said decisively.

Su Buyi was silent and no longer worried about the owner of the footprints. "It's not too late. Let's leave immediately before the light disappears."

Thinking about it from another person's perspective, if you want to make a sneak attack, it is best to choose the time period after the darkness is shrouded. At that time, people are the most panicked. When you can't see anything, you can definitely win with one strike.

Su Bujing hesitated slightly, "But your legs..."

Su Buyi raised his two healthy hands and said, "I can still walk with two wooden crutches. It's no problem, but... I can't walk on too steep a road."

Su Bujing squeezed Su Buyi's arm and said with a smile, "Then I'll give you two pieces of wood. You can polish them and use them. I'll go and pack the things in the tent."

At the critical moment before, Su Bujing and Su Buyi had already thrown away the wooden crutches that were in the way in order to climb up here smoothly, and now they still had to make a few new ones.

After the agreement was made, the two of them stopped delaying. One made the wooden cane and the other packed the things. After a while, Su Bujing packed up and stayed aside. After Su Buyi finished, he raised his hand to close the tent and put out the lights. Fire, slap your butt and run away immediately.

Su Buyi carefully picked out the sharp forked thorns on the handle, two for himself and one for Su Bujing.

Time is running out and I only have time to do these three.

Su Bujing took two stones from the extinguished fire and gave them to Su Buyi. After collecting the tent cloth, the two of them left.

But this time, the brother and sister did not continue to climb, but moved parallel to the northeast, to a relatively flat place near the ridge, surrounded by undulating small snow hills, making it more secluded.

Su Bujing covered the steaming stone and nodded with satisfaction: This place is already very good, and the two of them have no energy to continue going up.

"Let's go, I think that land is good. Let's go camp there." Su Buyi moved slowly behind Su Bujing.

Su Bujing hurriedly supported him with his left hand, "Slow down, are your feet soaked?"

Su Buyi consoled her, "No, my legs and feet are dry. It would be better if I put a layer of deerskin on my feet, but my legs still hurt a little."

Su Bujing turned and sighed, "Sigh... It's hard to see her now, but she has to move again."

"Stop thinking about these worries and quickly set up the tent. Only after lighting a fire can I make a finger set for you."

Su Bujing smiled knowingly, regained his composure, stepped firmly on the fluffy snow, and then started to drive the stakes after compacting it.

Su Buyi watched from the sidelines.

If he went to help, he would be causing trouble, but he still knew this.
