Real Young Lady Pampered By Bigshots After Coming Home - Chapter 221

Chapter 221: Life and Death

Huo Qi’s eyes widened. He subconsciously raised his gun and pulled the trigger, shooting a few times into the water!

However, there was only the sound of bullets piercing through the water. Then, even the wave gradually disappeared. His three brothers, who were still alive and kicking just now, were all gone in an instant!

Huo Qi sat on the ground in shock. After a long while, he tried to swallow his saliva in an attempt to ease his shock.

He turned his head slightly and asked his only remaining man, “Did you see what pulled them down?”

!!
The brother who had been shot in the chest and abdomen in the gunfight just now was breathing heavily. His legs seemed to have gone weak as he knelt on the ground and shook his head. “I’m sorry, Young Master! I didn’t see clearly either…”

After saying this, he collapsed.

Huo Qi reacted extremely quickly and quickly raised his hand to catch him. This action spanned a large distance, and at the same time, it pulled at the wound on his back. His face was pale from the pain, and the bandage was soaked in the water from the river, sticking to the wound like salt water.

Huo Qi snorted and asked in surprise, “You were shot?”

He could feel the moist and sticky touch when he placed his palm on his subordinate’s chest. The smell of blood that lingered in his nose already told Huo Qi the answer.

“I… I’m fine, Young Master!”

Huo Qi pressed down on the gunshot wound on his chest and said sternly, “Stop talking first! Maintain your strength, I’ll bandage your wound and stop the bleeding! Huo Feng and the others will be here soon. Hang in there!”

As Huo Qi spoke, he quickly looked up at his other two brothers, who were completely lifeless on the right. Their lives had been stolen by bullets in the enemy’s surprise attack just now.

There was no sound of living people on the wooden boat in the river.

Under the unknown light, Huo Qi could vaguely see the people on the enemy’s boat. They were right. This was a five-man team, the patrol team under Scorpion.

They had actually chased them here with the current. They were really fast!

Huo Qi’s intuition told him that the situation was already very bad. Scorpion would definitely die tonight, but this was not a place they could stay for long.

They had found a lot of clues from Scorpion, which was enough for them to find the goods. The most important thing now was to meet up with their other companions.

Otherwise, it was impossible for Huo Qi and his seriously injured subordinate to escape from this rainforest, let alone go to the pier!

The subordinate could feel Huo Qi’s anxiety and worry. He smiled and said honestly, “I’m already very happy to be able to come out on a mission with Young Master this time! Young Master, you’re the strongest person in the Huo family. You’ll definitely be fine this time! Young Master, don’t worry about me. The rainforest is very dangerous at night. Hurry up and meet Brother Li…”

As he spoke, he looked up at the sky that was covered by the tall tree crown with great difficulty and said in relief, “My brothers and I will protect you in the sky.”

Huo Qi frowned deeply and quickly wrapped his brother’s chest in silence. However, in the next second, the man’s heart stopped beating.

A sense of powerlessness and defeat surged into Huo Qi’s heart.

Huo Qi fell back and sat on a huge tree root. At this moment, he really wanted a cigarette. Huo Qi tried to take one out of his pocket, but the drenched cigarette box was already too burnt to be used.

Huo Qi threw it away and stood up to pick up a military backpack on the ground. He searched the other backpacks and took everything he could. Most importantly, there were also the name tags on his brothers’ chests.

This was the unique status symbol that the Huo family gave to every brother. It was only used once in their lives, and that was to witness their deaths.

There was nothing Huo Qi could do about those who had disappeared into the water. He staggered to his feet and tried to clean the high beam flashlight in his hand. It had fallen to the ground a few times just now, and Huo Qi was afraid that it would break.

Perhaps the heavens were pitying Huo Qi. The flashlight flashed a few times, but it still worked tenaciously. He sighed deeply and looked up.

According to the direction they fled into the rainforest, Huo Qi was now east of the rainforest, which was close to the Namphan Sea Zone. If he wanted to meet up with Huo Feng, he had to return to the middle of the rainforest.
