The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady - Chapter 221

221 Killing Intent in the Snow

Luo Cheng, who Li Xiaoran was worried about, was also trapped on the mountain.

The snow on the mountain was much heavier than below. In the beginning, he could still find some roads and marks, but later on, everything was white, so he didn’t know where he was.

Luo Cheng had no choice but to rely on his memories to walk towards the valley where he used to live.

!!
After an unknown period of time, Luo Cheng suddenly shot up and dodged the arrow that shuttled out of the snow pile. Unexpectedly, those trees were tied with something as sharp as thin threads.

As Luo Cheng leaped up, he hit the sharp thin line. His back and arm were cut several times, and blood gushed out.

Seeing this, the secret guards also took action to deal with the people hiding in the dark.

However, there were too many people on the other side. Moreover, in this snowy environment, the thin lines couldn’t be seen. They were in a passive position and could only suffer injuries.

Luo Cheng knew that he would definitely die here if this continued, so he had to think of a way to escape.

As he looked at the snow around him, Luo Cheng’s mind raced, and he shouted.

“Thirteen, learn from me!”

With that, Luo Cheng jumped up, curled up, and rolled down the mountain.

When the secret guard saw this, he followed suit and curled into a ball before rolling down the mountain.

Those who had ambushed and tried to assassinate him could only watch as Luo Cheng and his men escaped. Then, they jumped up and chased after them.

However, they couldn’t catch up with Luo Cheng’s speed, let alone the speed of the snowfall.

As they chased, they saw nothing but white everywhere. The tumbled tracks on the ground were covered in snow. They had no idea where to look.

Just like that, Luo Cheng and his bodyguard finally escaped from the other party’s pursuit.

However, Luo Cheng’s current situation wasn’t good. It was even a little dangerous.

He was badly injured. After he had rolled in the snow, many of his wounds had opened up.

At the same time, because they were surrounded by ice and snow, the temperature was very low. As soon as the blood gushed out, it was frozen into ice.

Finally, Luo Cheng landed in a pit. Then, he fell unconscious.

In his delirious state, Luo Cheng seemed to have returned to the ice cave he had been in when he was young. He was freezing.

Was he going to die?

After the secret guard couldn’t find Luo Cheng, he immediately whistled.

Big Yellow, who had been lying by the fire, looked up and quickly stood up. Then, it barked at Luo Ziyang.

Luo Ziyang looked at Big Yellow and thought for a moment before taking out a few wooden signs from his body.

Without hesitation, Big Yellow pointed at a red wooden sign with its claws.

Luo Ziyang’s expression changed and he quickly stood up.

“Did something happen to Luo Cheng?” Li Xiaoran sensed Luo Ziyang’s sudden change in mood, so she chased after him and asked.

Luo Ziyang nodded and said quickly, “Something has happened to my brother. I have to bring Big Yellow to look for him! I’ll leave the family matters to you! Remember, from now on, don’t leave the house at all. Gather all the dogs together. No matter what happens, don’t open the door!”

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran shook her head.

“I’ll go with you!”

“No, Sister-in-law, I can’t protect you! I don’t think my brother wants to see you missing after he comes back!” After saying this, Luo Ziyang went to the house to get some things and left with Big Yellow.

Li Xiaoran wanted to chase after him, but she thought of Luo Ziyang’s words and was worried that something would happen to her family, so she could only quickly close the door.

After doing all this, Li Xiaoran went to gather the dogs at home and went to the fireplace.

“Did something happen? You and Ziyang ran out with ugly expressions. Something big must have happened!” Li Shun asked worriedly when he saw his daughter return.

“Something happened. Ziyang has already brought Big Yellow out to take a look! Don’t leave this place for the time being. It’s best if we stick together!” Li Xiaoran told them the situation.

She didn’t say that something had happened to Luo Cheng or that Luo Ziyang had already left. Li Xiaoran didn’t want everyone to panic.

It was better not to say these things too clearly so as not to cause panic.

Fortunately, nothing happened to the Luo family this time. Everything was peaceful.

Just like that, Li Xiaoran waited anxiously for a long time, but Luo Ziyang only sent an injured guard back.

“What about your brother?” Li Xiaoran asked.

Luo Ziyang said in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t find him. I searched many places but couldn’t find him. Even Big Yellow couldn’t smell him at all!”

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran turned around and entered the house. She quickly packed two quilts and brought a pair of scissors.

After walking out, Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Ziyang.

“Go, take me to the place you previously searched!”

Luo Ziyang wanted to refuse again, but Li Xiaoran carried her things and left.

Helpless, Luo Ziyang could only give the injured guard some instructions and turn around to follow Li Xiaoran out.

When Li Shun and Zhao Xiu saw Li Xiaoran’s determined figure, they realized the seriousness of the matter.

The couple exchanged glances. Then, they helped the injured secret guard to the fire and went to find medicine to apply on him.

On the other side, Li Xiaoran and Luo Ziyang quickly found the place where Luo Ziyang had searched for the secret guard.

Big Yellow was spinning around in place now. It could no longer smell anything and could only whimper.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran squatted down and reached out to touch Big Yellow’s head.

“Big Yellow, don’t be so flustered. Calm down. I can find your master!”

Big Yellow understood Li Xiaoran’s words and nodded before sitting down beside her.

Li Xiaoran also adjusted her breathing to calm down. Then, she closed her eyes and began to sense.

As long as people were alive, they would have emotions.

Even when people were unconscious, they still had emotions.

Therefore, Li Xiaoran wanted to use her empathic ability to sense if there were any emotions nearby.

As long as there were emotions nearby, she could find Luo Cheng.

Just like that, Li Xiaoran tried to sense emotions as she walked.

After climbing up for a while, Li Xiaoran stopped and sensed again.

From the beginning to the end, Big Yellow had been following Li Xiaoran and guarding her.

Although Luo Ziyang didn’t know what his sister-in-law was doing, Li Xiaoran’s stable emotions and the way she searched diligently gradually calmed him down.

At this moment, Luo Ziyang chose to believe Li Xiaoran and walked beside Li Xiaoran, like Big Yellow, to protect her.
