The Legend of the Medical Concubine

Chapter 181: Battle of Bats

After successfully repelling the beasts, Nangong Yi, Zhao Wan'er and the guards they led took a short break before continuing their journey to the border. Their clothes were torn in the fierce battle with the beasts, and their faces were filled with deep fatigue, but their eyes were full of determination, as if no difficulty could stop them from moving forward.

Nangong Yi held Zhao Wan'er's hand tightly, his eyes full of tenderness, and said softly: "Wan'er, it was really dangerous just now. Fortunately, you are by my side, otherwise I don't know what to do." Zhao Wan'er smiled gently and responded: "Husband, don't say that. We are husband and wife, and we should share weal and woe. Moreover, we will definitely overcome all difficulties and reach the border."

As they continued to move forward, the road became more and more rugged and difficult to walk on. They passed through a deep canyon. The cliffs on both sides of the canyon were towering into the sky, like two silent giants that would fall down at any time. In the canyon, the light was dim and the atmosphere was depressing, which made people feel a little uneasy. The gloomy atmosphere was like a huge trap, waiting for them to step into it.

However, they did not retreat at all. Nangong Yi walked in front, looking solemn, always alert to the movements around him. He held the long sword tightly in his hand, as if it was his life stick. Zhao Wan'er followed closely behind him, holding the dagger tightly in her hand, just in case. Her eyes revealed determination and courage, as if telling the world that she would not retreat.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the depths of the canyon. The sound was like the whisper of a devil, making people shudder. Everyone suddenly became nervous, and the guards tightened their weapons and stood ready. Nangong Yi signaled everyone to keep quiet and listen carefully to the sound. As the sound got closer, they finally saw that it was a group of huge bats flying out from the depths of the canyon.

These bats were huge, with wings spread out to be more than a person tall. They pounced on everyone with their fangs and claws bared, looking like a group of demons from hell. Nangong Yi immediately shouted, "Everyone be careful! These bats are not easy to deal with!"

The guards raised their weapons and started a fierce battle with the bats. The bats attacked fiercely. They used their flexible flying advantage to attack everyone from all directions. Their wings flapped, bringing a gust of wind that made it almost impossible for people to stand. Nangong Yi and Zhao Wan'er were not afraid either. They fought hard with the guards to resist the bats' attacks.

Nangong Yi swung his sword, the shadow of the sword flashed, and he repelled the bats that pounced on him one by one. He shouted loudly: "You damn bats, don't try to hurt my people!" The bats seemed to be intimidated by his momentum and retreated a little, but soon launched a more fierce attack.

Zhao Wan'er, with her agility, dodged the bats' attacks and took the opportunity to stab them with her dagger. While fighting, she shouted, "Husband, come on! We can definitely defeat these bats!"

The battle was extremely fierce, the bats kept attacking, and everyone resisted tenaciously. Several guards were accidentally scratched by the bats, bleeding profusely, but they still gritted their teeth and persisted in fighting.

Just as everyone was getting tired, a particularly huge bat appeared. Its eyes flashed red, like the eyes of a demon. It made a sharp cry, and the other bats immediately became more ferocious.

Nangong Yi looked at the huge bat and thought to himself that something was wrong. He shouted to Zhao Wan'er, "Wan'er, be careful of this big bat, it's very powerful!" Zhao Wan'er nodded, her eyes full of vigilance.

The big bat led the other bats and launched a more fierce attack on everyone. Everyone was in trouble and the situation was very critical. However, they did not give up. Nangong Yi and Zhao Wan'er looked at each other and saw determination and courage in each other's eyes.

Nangong Yi suddenly thought of a solution and shouted to the guards: "Everyone listen to my command, let's attack the big bat together! As long as we defeat it, the other bats will retreat!" The guards responded one after another, they concentrated their strength and attacked the big bat.

The big bat seemed to sense the danger as well, and it kept dodging everyone's attacks. However, with everyone's concerted efforts, it finally revealed a flaw. Nangong Yi seized the opportunity and stabbed the big bat's wing with a sword. The big bat screamed and fell from the sky.

When the other bats saw the big bat being defeated, they immediately lost their fighting spirit and flew away. Although they were exhausted, they were filled with the joy of victory.

Nangong Yi and Zhao Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the bats fly away. They hugged each other to celebrate this hard-fought victory. Nangong Yi said, "Wan'er, we have overcome difficulties once again. I believe that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead, we can overcome them together." Zhao Wan'er nodded and said with a smile, "Husband, we will definitely reach the border and complete our mission."

After this fierce battle, they continued on their journey with confidence and courage in their hearts.
