Chapter 62: A Sudden Attack
Walking along the tree-lined path, I saw that there were ancient trees beside the road, old dry branches were intertwined, and the fine sunlight passed through the dense branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows all over the ground.
A breeze blows, the sparse branches and leaves sway with the wind, the light and shadow on the ground are intertwined, like broken silver all over the ground, dazzling eyes, and the unknown bird calls come from the depths of the woods, gracefully turning and listening, making people linger.
Long Dou and his party walked until noon, and then came to the edge of the forest, and then passed through a dense forest in front of them, and they could walk out of this Netherworld Forest.
"Finally we are about to get out of this forest, everyone hold on a little longer, there is a river in front of us, we have already drunk the water we have brought, let's rest when we get to the river. Cang Xue walked in front and said to the clouds behind her.
Walking into the lush forest, but see the vigorous branches glowing with black luster, growing very thick, the leaves are verdant, the dense branches are intertwined, intertwined overhead into an impermeable dome, the ground is covered with mottled moss, the humid air wafts with the fragrance of grass and trees, and the fragrance of the earth is mixed together, refreshing, intoxicating.
As they walked through the dense forest, they heard the sound of murmuring water in the distance, and followed the sound to the middle of a lush forest.
But I saw a crystal clear river flowing slowly, meandering among the trees, and the water was as clear as jade, like a swirling jade belt, rushing away between the trees and the grass.
"Wow, it's so beautiful here!" Lordan exclaimed.
"Yes, let's rest here, Xiuyi, you go and fill the kettle, Lan Ying, you go and divide the food. ”
"Yes, Your Highness Princess. ”
After the two guards put down the dragon fight, they each got busy according to Cang Xue's arrangement.
"How are you? Can't you go?" Cang Xue skimmed Long Dou sitting on the stretcher with the corner of her eye.
"I'll give it a try. ”
After Long Dou finished speaking, he supported the ground with his hands and wanted to stand up, but his lower body seemed to be paralyzed, and he couldn't use any strength, and as soon as he got up a little, he fell down again.
"Okay, okay, let's rest, you're pretending to be like it, just say it if you don't want to walk. Cang Xue snorted after speaking, and then twisted her face to the side.
"You...... I don't bother to pay attention to you. ”
Long Dou was really angry, but he didn't know that this was done by Cang Xue on purpose. After Cang Xue saw that her goal was achieved, the corners of her mouth rose and showed a smug smile.
The guard, named Xiuyi, came to the lake, the warm sun shone obliquely, the warm sun poured down, fell on the rippling lake, the breeze blew, the water surface was covered with layers of fine ripples, the sun jumped happily on the water, only to see the golden light, like countless gold and silver flashing light, dazzling.
Hugh bent down and put the bamboo tube in the lake to get water, at this moment, his heart was inexplicably tight, and a feeling that his life was threatened spontaneously, he immediately threw away the bamboo tube in his hand, put his feet on the ground a little, and his body immediately flew backwards.
At this moment, the water surface tumbled, and a man in black rose from the water, holding a black long sword in his hand, and spun and stabbed at Xiuyi, who had not yet stabilized his figure.
The sudden attack made this group of teenagers, who didn't have much combat experience, completely dumbfounded.
The speed of the black-clothed man's sword was extremely fast, and in an instant, he came to a distance of less than two fists from Xiu Yi's heart, Xiu Yi was shocked in his heart, on this long sword, there was a faint red fighting spirit entangled, which showed that the comer should not be underestimated.
Although the incident happened suddenly, Huichi was a high-level fighter with rich combat experience after all, and he made a countermeasure immediately. Hugh's arms were in the shape of a cross to protect his heart, and then he transferred all the power of his body to his arms, and his arms burst out into a cross-shaped white light curtain.
As soon as the white light curtain formed, the long sword of the man in black stabbed it, and with a loud "boom", Xiu Yi's white light curtain dissipated, and a cloud of blood mist erupted from his arm, and the whole person was shocked by the aftermath of the explosion, and flew out dozens of meters, until it knocked down a big tree.
On the other hand, the man in black still stood in place without moving, he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but stared at Xiu Yi coldly with his eyes, that kind of look is no different from looking at a dead person, although the man in black is wearing a veil, but Long Dou can feel it, he is hidden under the veil, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth.
The female guard named Lan Ying, seeing that Hugh Yi was knocked down, hurriedly ran over, protected him in front of him, drew a purple long whip pinned to his belt, and stared vigilantly at the man in black not far away.
Hugh Yi struggled to stand up, but the pain was incomparable, the beads of sweat on his forehead kept sliding down, and his arms had been pierced by the sword just now.
Lan Ying saw that Hugh was seriously injured, and regardless of the danger in front of him, she held him in her arms, her apricot eyes were already full of tears, Lan Ying reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and forced herself to cry:
"Senior brother, don't worry, I won't let you have anything to do, you have to hold on!"
Although Xiu Yi's meridians were broken, he didn't want Lan Ying to see his fragile side, so he endured the pain, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Senior sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to practice with you anymore, if Senior Brother is not there in the future, you have to take care of yourself, you must eat on time, you must not be lazy, you know?"
"Senior brother, hold on, don't leave me alone, I'm just a relative like you, do you want to leave me? You haven't taken me to the sea of illusion to watch the sunrise, I won't allow you to die!"
At this time, Lan Ying could no longer control her emotions, tears burst out of her eyes, and various pictures of the past emerged one after another:
Senior brother Huyi is the earliest one to get started, and then naturally took on the role of a senior brother, he takes care of his junior brothers and sisters, and is funny and humorous.
Senior sister Lan Ying is actually not the latest in the sect, there are many younger brothers and sisters than her, because she was originally the apprentice of the uncle, but because the uncle is old, there is no way to teach anymore, so the uncle let her come here to defect.
She was personally picked up by her senior brother Xiu Yi, and she was stupid all the way, and her senior brother Xiu looked cute, so he called her "little junior sister".
The little junior sister is not stupid, and the martial arts and techniques she practices can be ranked in the top few, but her ability to take care of herself in life is almost poor, and she doesn't know the way, and she often loses herself in the mountains, which makes her look extremely stupid.
For example, the mountain road that has been walked countless times, if she is allowed to walk alone, she will still be confused, and she will not be able to distinguish between east and west, north and south. The elder brother still remembers the first time the little sister went up the mountain. In fact, the senior brother had already written to inform him of the detailed route, and a map was attached, and the places that were easy to go wrong were specially marked. At the end of the letter, he also wrote quite intimately: If there is any confusion, he will personally pick it up.
That road is not complicated, such a detailed introduction to an ordinary person, it must be found smoothly, Ke Lanying looked left and right at the picture, pondered, and tried to conjure up the actual route in her mind, but the result was naturally a mess.
Of course, the little junior sister knows herself, and she mustered up the courage to write to the senior brother and said that she hoped that he could pick her up at the foot of the mountain. The senior brother naturally agreed.
Strange to say, on the appointed day, the Liqing Mountain, which was already in full bloom, suddenly cooled down, and the wind suddenly rose, mixed with snow particles whistling, and the people who blew couldn't open their eyes.
As soon as Lan Ying arrived at the foot of the mountain, she was blown cold by the wind and snow, and she only felt that her head was blown by the cold wind, and she was a little inexplicably afraid.
At this moment, Senior Brother Hugh Yi rode to the front, and when he saw the little junior sister with a blank face and empty eyes, he smiled and said, "Haha, are you in a hurry? Let's go, follow me home." ”
Lan Ying saw Xiu Yi's warm smile and handsome and sunny face, and lowered her head shyly, and when she reacted, even the burden she carried with her had been hugged by Xiu Yi on horseback.
Xiu Yi carefully used the cloak to wrap Lan Ying tightly and block the wind and snow outside, Lan Ying sat on horseback, only to see the senior brother Xiu Yi, the fingers holding the reins were distinct, like warm jade exuding a shining light.
At that time, Lan Ying was already deeply in love with Xiuyi, she never dared to confess, she wanted to be by her sweetheart's side forever, what a happy thing it should be.
