Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower
Chapter 87 - 87 87 Sudden Siege
Chapter 87: Chapter 87 Sudden Siege Chapter 87: Chapter 87 Sudden Siege It seems Doctor Wang had quite the fruitful trip.
The hundred and more people he took with him were among the more active in the group, having had more or less contact with the sick.
Now the camp was divided into two sections, and they took the initiative to request living in the sick area, undertaking the task of boiling medicine for the sick.
On the self-interested road of flight from famine, it was quite rare to encounter people with such awareness.
Bai Junjun watched the bustling activity of the people, and in a daze, she seemed to see her former comrades at the base, who had also been supportive and vigilant in their camaraderie.
It wasn’t long after Doctor Wang’s return that The Sun completely disappeared behind the mountains.
Clusters of bonfires were lit in the camp, and compared to the clean area, the sick area was actually more lively and bustling.
After all, everyone was happily boiling medicine over newly-lit stoves.
Xiao Shan and Bai Lingyu seemed to be having fun outside, and Madam Liu didn’t urge them to come back, merely chatting with Qiu Da and the others.
People in the clean area kept expressing their feelings, “If only it could always be this peaceful.”
“If it weren’t for this land being so barren, we could just settle down here after clearing some land.”
“Yeah, I really don’t want to move on.”
Although they had encountered malaria, it was precisely because of this sudden outbreak that people, who had been on the fringes, suddenly became united.
Humans are naturally social animals, all having let down their guard during these rare peaceful times.
Just then, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, several flaming arrow feathers shot out of the darkness straight toward the horse carriage.
At that moment, the Rabbit, seated at the front of the carriage, quickly drew the thin knife from behind his waist and fiercely cut at the arrow feathers, and the young boy actually managed to block those arrows.
The crowd had not yet recovered from this sudden turn of events when Bai Junjun was the first to react.
She pushed Bai Sasa to the ground without forgetting to marvel at how such a small child could have such impressive skills, it was really unexpected!
Just then, arrow feathers attacked again, only this time the arrow feathers weren’t set aflame, and were virtually invisible in the cover of the twilight’s darkness.
Their targets were no longer the horse carriage, but the people around it.
Twenty or thirty arrow feathers flew, and many people were struck down.
Xiao Chan frowned and shouted, “Get down! Everyone get down!”
However, even with his warnings, there were still many people panic-stricken, scattering in all directions.
But by fleeing, they ran straight into the blades of Bandits lurking in the bushes, leading to another round of wailing emerging from the grass.
Xiao Chan wanted to rush back, but there were too many people, and with the Arrow Rain, he was forced to remain trapped on the outskirts.
Meanwhile, Bai Junjun remained prone on the ground with Bai Sasa, her eyes frantically searching for Bai Lingyu and the others.
At this moment, the place where Old Uncle Qiu and the others were standing guard was the most dangerous.
With everyone in a panic, it was completely impossible to see what was happening in front.
Bai Sasa tried to lift her head out of the muddy ground and said, “Elder sister, we have to find our younger brother and Old Uncle Qiu and his group!”
“You stay here and watch, I’ll go,” Bai Junjun patted her head.
“No, I must go too,” Bai Sasa said anxiously, she still had some brute strength, whereas her elder sister had just woken up from a faint; she couldn’t possibly take the risk.
“Gather some stones here, and if I give you a signal, you throw them at them,” Bai Junjun instructed calmly and quickly left before Bai Sasa agreed.
By this time, the outer area of the camp was already in chaos.
This barrage of arrow feathers caused the group, which had just begun to form some cohesion, to break apart again into scattered individuals, everyone running everywhere, realizing they couldn’t go through the bushes and immediately turning back to move towards the horse carriage.
