281 Foggy

The night wind whined through the ravines in the Gobi Desert.

The starlight was cold and cold on the undulating hills, silent.

The demon hunting 'warriors' who left the city in the early morning did not know where to hide at this time, and there was not the slightest fire in the endless wilderness.

There was a sand dune about thirty or forty miles away from Lancheng, and suddenly a black claw broke through the ground. As the sand and gravel flew, a huge black figure burst out from below.

The body is like a snake, and the belly has four legs, and it is like a lizard, but it is much larger than a lizard.

Standing on the top of the sand dune, after looking around with his triangular head, his golden pupils shrank sharply as his nose flickered, and then his body shot out like an arrow.

After half a pillar of incense, a scream of fear broke the silence on the Gobi Desert.

In a ravine, four or five figures fled in panic, and behind them, a huge black figure followed them.

Whenever the night wind passes through this ravine, there must be a scream along with the whining of the wind.

In just a few moments, the four or five figures were all lying on the ground, all of them disemboweled, and blood was all on the ground. None of these people had a chance to fire the arrows from the supply bag.

The lizard-like black monster stood beside the corpse that had run the farthest, bowing its head and licking slowly, the blood stained on its front paws.

Suddenly, a figure in a black cloak quietly appeared beside the demon beast, and the demon beast seemed to be unaware, still slowly cleaning its front paws.

The figure glanced at the corpses lying in the ravine, and snorted dissatisfiedly.

As soon as the voice fell, the demon beast stopped licking the blood and fell to the ground.

"Didn't you leave a mouth alive?" came a woman's voice from under the cloak.

When the demon beast heard the sound, it fell to the ground, its body trembling slightly, as if it was terrified.

"Useless thing!" the woman under the cloak cursed again, and then one turned around, and her figure turned into a puff of black smoke and dissipated into the wind.

As soon as the woman left, the demon beast suddenly raised its head again, twisted its huge body, and ran out along this ravine, which did not know where it started and where it leads.

The black figure, like a black line, passed through the ravine with great speed, without the slightest movement.

After a tea time, another group of 'demon warriors' was discovered.

However, this group was luckier than the one who had been hiding in the ravine. When the monster approached, it alarmed the horses that were tied to the periphery.

The sound of the horses neighing in horror alarmed the 'demon hunters' who were hiding behind the low hill and waiting for the dawn, and without hesitation, someone took out the arrows that had been prepared for a long time, raised their hands and let them go.

Ratting arrows rose into the air, piercing the night with a shrill chirp and dazzling light.

Even, the demon beast was frightened and stopped, but immediately after, there was an even more ferocious torture.

After the quackman who released the arrow released the arrow, he didn't turn his head back, and ran away. By the time the monster had killed the rest, he had already run some distance.

However, he only ran a certain distance.

A figure hidden in a black cloak suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his escape path.

He thought it was reinforcements from the city, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. It's just that as soon as Xise's cheeks surfaced, he saw that the cloak on the person opposite suddenly trembled, and then a large black mist poured out of it, engulfing him in an instant.

A moment later, the large black mist retreated under the man's cloak. Among them, the Jianghu guests suddenly fell to the ground with weak knees.

When the demon beast nearby saw this, she wanted to pounce on it, but the woman under the cloak snorted coldly and immediately stopped her figure.

At this time, the woman suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of Lancheng, and saw that in the inky night sky, there were several bright sword lights flying towards this side.

"Hehe......" Under the cloak, a chuckle came out, full of disdain and contempt. Immediately after, a gust of wind passed, and her figure suddenly turned into wisps of black mist and drifted away without a trace.

And the demon beast was also a fierce son stabbed on the ground, and the ground, which was originally very hard, suddenly became extremely soft in front of it, allowing it to plunge into the ground without hindrance, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Not long after they left, those few sword lights arrived nearby. As soon as the sword light was closed, five figures fell one after another, a man and a woman. As soon as one of the women saw the bloody scenes on the ground, she immediately became unwell.

The other people were in slightly better condition, but their faces were not good-looking.

At this time, the Jianghu guest who fell to the ground in the distance was not dead, and woke up with a groan. When he stood up and spotted the figures in the distance, the men also spotted him.

"There's someone over there. After one of them shouted, the five of them immediately surrounded the quack.

It's nearly a hundred zhang away, but it's only a few blinks of an eye. The Jianghu guests who were lucky enough to survive looked at this strange body style, and suddenly felt a little nervous in their hearts. However, when his gaze swept over those young faces, the Jianghu guest thought of the rumors about the children of the Immortal Family in the city before, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "How many are the reinforcements from the city?"

When the words fell, a man in ink at the head of the five ignored his question and asked directly, "Was it your signal just now?"

Jianghu Ke nodded hurriedly.

"What about the monsters?" the man asked again.

Jianghu Ke's face turned slightly pale, and he shook his head: "I don't know." ”

When this person heard this, he was immediately a little dissatisfied, and after staring at him unhappily, he asked again, "Then did you see where the demon beast fled?"

The charlatan still shook his head. The nervousness made him forget to tell the cloaked man he had seen.

"What a waste!" the man suddenly scolded angrily, and then regardless of the ugly face of the charlatan, he turned his head to look at the people who came with him, and asked, "What should I do?"

Another slightly chubby man replied with a deep groan: "Since the demon beast is here, it must not go far, let's search the neighborhood to see if there are any traces left!"

The other people listened, and after each considered it for a while, they all nodded.

So, the five quickly dispersed, each responsible for an area to search.

The quackler stayed where he was, looked at the figures that were rapidly moving away, his originally pale and ugly face suddenly became indifferent, and after a flash of black light in his eyes, he raised his feet and walked towards the low hill where they had been hiding.

At this time, on that low hill, the figures of Shen Muzhi and Lin Yixian quietly appeared.

He turned his head to look at Shen Muzhi next to him, because he was wearing a mask, he couldn't see any change in expression. After hesitating for a moment, he still suppressed the doubts and worries in his heart, and then looked at the Jianghu guest who was slowly walking towards this side in the distance, and asked, "Why do you think that mysterious person left him?"

Shen Muzhi thought for a while and said, "Just look at it." ”

Lin Yixian frowned slightly, the appearance of that mysterious person made the whole thing feel a little more foggy.

The demon beast killed people outside of Lancheng, obviously with some kind of purpose.

And what does this purpose have to do with the fact that the disciples of the Zhengyang Sect borrowed the hands of the Qinglong Dart Bureau to make this demon hunting operation with three dragon blood grasses as lottery heads?

The wind blew, and the two disappeared into the low knoll.

There have been a lot of people who have approached the rivers and lakes, and suddenly they have a sense in their hearts, and they look up, but under the starry sky, it is empty, only the invisible night breeze remains, and there are still any figures.

The quacks frowned, looked around vigilantly, and then continued to walk towards the low hill.

It wasn't long before he was under the low knoll.

The former companion was now a cold corpse, lying motionless on the ground, the frightened expression on his face still there, but there was no trace of life in his round eyes.

Jianghu Ke stepped over the corpses one by one expressionlessly, without the slightest sympathy or sadness.

Not far ahead, three of the horses they had ridden had died, and three more were restlessly circling around the stakes.

The Jianghu guest went straight over, and after untying one of them, regardless of the resistance of the horse, he jumped on the horse, clamped his legs, and galloped away amid the roar of the horse.

On the other side, after a fruitless search, the Zhengyang faction gathered again. The man in ink was estimated to be the eldest among them, and after his gaze swept over everyone, he asked, "What have you found?"

The other four shook their heads.

Seeing this, the man in ink frowned, and a look of irritability flashed in his eyes.

"Don't you think there's something strange about that guy just now?" said one of the two women out of the five.

This woman has an ordinary appearance, but her eyebrows are like arrows and her eyes are like stars, so that people can forget her ordinary appearance at first sight, and only remember this pair of eyebrows and eyes full of spirituality.

When the rest of the people heard this, they were stunned. The slightly chubby man was puzzled and asked, "Senior Sister Lin, what's so strange about that person?"

The woman, known as Senior Sister Lin, pursed her lips and groaned for a while, then explained: "The first few times that demon beast attacked, it was basically to kill them all. Only once did two escape, and those two were also seriously injured. But this time, not only did this man survive, but he was not injured at all, don't you think it's a little strange?"

After this Senior Sister Lin analyzed this, the rest of the people thought about it for a while, and they also vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but they couldn't say what was wrong.

So, the chubby man said again: "Could it be that the demon beast noticed that we were coming, so it didn't have time to attack him?"

Senior Sister Lin glanced at him, groaned slightly, and said, "It's possible that Senior Brother Pang said it. ”

At this time, the man in ink suddenly turned his head to look at the location where they had found the Jianghu guest before, and where else was there a figure. He frowned, and then instructed everyone to look around and see if they could find the man.

However, by this time a long time had passed, and the man had long since left. The surrounding Gobi is vast, with ravines and low hills, and it is not easy to find a person without a special method.
