Chapter 124: Treasure Hunt
When the moon was in the sky, on the forest path, a lean figure was rushing rapidly.
Behind him, a group of killers in black cloaks and masks are in pursuit.
The killer who led the team was Guan Tao.
The lean figure is naturally Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu had been on the run for two hours since he escaped from the Shadow Split, and he had also brought the killers into the Northern Underworld Desert Valley again.
With his advantage in body skills and terrain, he threw off most of the pursuers, and behind him, there was only a team of men and horses left.
This team of people is led by Guan Tao.
This was naturally planned by Xiao Yu.
Because, he needs Guan Tao to take him to find the treasure.
Seeing that he had gone deep into the Northern Hellworld Barren Valley, Xiao Yu slowed down, looked at the killer who was rushing forward, and instead of retreating, he advanced and killed among the killers.
"Ahh
Xiao Yu's body was like a ghost, and the getaway cooperated with the startling back, and every purple light flashed, and a killer's head fell to the ground.
Although these killers are also shadow elites, they are only the strength of the fourth and fifth heavens of the martial arts, and they are not Xiao Yu's opponents.
After a dozen breaths, the killers all fell to the ground.
"Do you still want to come and take my head?" After finishing dealing with the other killers, Xiao Yu shook off the blood stains on Su Guangaber, looked at Guan Tao, and said jokingly.
Guan Tao looked at the corpses all over the ground, fell to the ground, and shook his head: "Shaoxia, how dare I betray you?"
Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Count you as acquaintances." ”
In the past few days, it can be seen that this Guan Tao is still true to his word, and he has not played any tricks.
Of course, he may have been frightened by the power of Xiao Yu's "Dark Heart Devouring Pill".
But it's okay, it saves a lot of trouble.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A killer struggled to raise his hand, shooting a shadow at Xiao Yu, and then showed a cruel smile, before finally falling to the ground and dying of anger.
That shadow came extremely fast, burrowing into Xiao Yu's body like lightning.
With Xiao Yu's speed, he didn't even dodge.
Xiao Yu was shocked, hurriedly looked inward, checked for a week, and found no abnormality.
Then I ran the real qi again, and found that it was running smoothly and had no effect.
This bewildered him.
"What was that?"
Xiao Yu's eyes were cold, staring at Guan Tao, the power of his soul firmly locked him, as long as Guan Tao dared to lie, he would no longer keep his hand.
Guan Tao was in a nervous mood, and quickly answered Xiao Yu's question: "This is the female worm of the frog sub-worm." ”
"Frogworms, what's that?"
Xiao Yu recalled the "Pharmacopoeia" and found that there was no record on it, so he couldn't help frowning.
Guan Tao explained: "This frog worm is cultivated by our Shadow Shadow's unique family, and it is a pair of children and mothers. This kind of insect is connected to each other, thousands of miles apart, and can also sense each other. ”
After a pause, Guan Tao continued: "Usually, the female worm will be left on the person being tracked by us, which is regarded as a 'mark'. All we need to do is take the larvae, and it will guide us, following the breath of the mother worm to find the past. ”
Xiao Yu frowned, the shadow still has such a means?
The effect of this frog is very similar to that of Gillian, and it is more powerful.
"Is there any way to eliminate that?" Xiao Yu asked.
Guan Tao smiled bitterly: "There is no way unless you use the martial artist's soul fire to burn the mother worm and kill it." ”
Xiao Yu frowned, it seemed that he had no way to deal with the female worm for the time being.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter. Xiao Yu waved his hand, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover it.
Big deal, just run.
"Is the treasure you are talking about in this Northern Hellworld Wilderness Valley?" Xiao Yu looked at Guan Tao with interest and changed the topic.
This is the purpose of him finding Guan Tao.
Guan Tao nodded and said, "I also overheard the news, I wanted to wash my hands after finishing this ticket, but I didn't expect..."
Guan Tao looked embarrassed and said helplessly.
Xiao Yu chuckled lightly and said, "Lead the way, the sooner we find the treasure, the sooner you will be freed." ”
Guan Tao sighed and shook his head helplessly.
Then take Xiao Yu and rush to the depths of the forest.
...
Just after they left, three figures appeared in the glade of the forest, the first one, full of murderous aura, it was Yin Thirteen.
"Damn, it's a step too late. Yin 13 looked at the corpses all over the ground, gritted his teeth, and said hatefully.
"It seems to be Guan Tao's subordinates. A killer said.
Yin 13 nodded, and said in a deep voice: "They can be regarded as worthy of death, before they died, they left frogs on Xiao Yu's body, now, Xiao Yu doesn't want to run." ”
He spread his hand, and a thumb-sized bug buzzed and swirled, then flew in one direction.
Yin Shisan's face was overjoyed, and he followed closely and chased towards the forest.
...
In the forest, the night is deep, and the shadows of the trees are swaying.
Guan Tao was in front and Xiao Yu was behind, walking cautiously.
In the Northern Underworld Barren Valley, monsters are rampant, especially at night, and wild beasts are rampant, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be buried in the belly of the beast.
But Xiao Yu is naturally not afraid, and he also hopes to see more demon beasts.
However, what disappointed him was that there were no demon beasts, which made him secretly cry out for pity.
"Do you know where the specific place is?" Xiao Yu asked as he collected his thoughts.
Guan Tao took out an old parchment from his arms, looked at the small words on it, and explained: "I don't get much relevant information, only that it is in the southwest direction of the North Hellworld Valley, the downstream of the river. If we follow the river, we should be able to find it. ”
Xiao Yu looked at the parchment in Guan Tao's hand and said curiously: "What is this parchment?
Guan Tao's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "This is what I got by chance on a trading floor." ”
Xiao Yu stared at Guan Tao, and seeing that he seemed to be hiding something, he said coldly: "You'd better share all the information with me, don't try to trick me." Otherwise, you know the consequences. ”
Guan Tao was stared at by Xiao Yu, like falling into an ice cave, frightened, and hurriedly said: "This really didn't lie to you, I really got it occasionally in a trading field." At that time, I wanted to buy a unique set of ancient books, but I was cheated. ”
He looked a little embarrassed and continued: "But fortunately, I was blessed by misfortune, and at the end of that fake lone book, I actually wrote some ancient characters with hidden potions. ”
"Can you recognize ancient books?" Xiao Yu sneered.
Guan Tao saw that Xiao Yu's eyes were not good, and hurriedly said: "I usually have no other hobbies, I just like to read some ancient books. ”
"You still have this hobby, it's rare. Xiao Yu was a little surprised.
In this cultivation realm where strength is respected, this Guan Tao is still so leisurely and elegant.
Guan Tao touched his nose and sneered: "No way, if I hadn't been a killer, I think I should have been a poet." ”
"Poof!" Xiao Yu squirted out a sip of salt soda and laughed.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back. Xiao Yu covered his stomach and looked at Guan Tao with a happy face.
He really couldn't imagine that a big man with a scar on his face, five big and three thick, would dream of being a poet.
Guan Tao saw Xiao Yu laughing, his face was a little unhappy, and said: "You can insult me, but you can't insult my ideals, what's wrong with the poet?"
"Hahaha!" Xiao Yu couldn't breathe with laughter, but looking at Guan Tao's expression of eagerness to come over and fight hard, he finally suppressed his smile and said, "I'm sorry, you continue." ”
Guan Tao was angry, glanced at Xiao Yu, and continued: "I found such a clue by translating the above content. ”
This record shows that in the Northern Hellworld Barren Valley, the former residence of the King of Shu is hidden. He paused and added, "And here, it is very likely that the treasure of the King of Shu is hidden." ”
"Oh?" Xiao Yu sneered, "You'd better tell the truth, what kind of person was the King of Shu back then, if it really appeared in the Northern Hellworld Barren Valley, why didn't the people from the Heavenly Star Sect come to investigate?"
Guan Tao shuddered, and hurriedly said: "Shaoxia, what I said is true, there is no lie, as for why they didn't come, I don't know!"
Xiao Yu looked at Guan Tao carefully, and when he saw that he was not lying, he nodded.
"Forget it, get up, you go on. Xiao Yu was just curious, and he didn't continue to embarrass him.
Guan Tao carefully recalled the records in the ancient books and said: "It is said that the area where the treasure is located is in the depths of the Northern Hellworld Barren Valley, and it is usually no different from the rest of the Barren Valley. Every 10 years, on the night of July 15, its periphery changes differently. ”
"And it's said that every change is different, so some people may find out and don't know what it is. Guan Tao sighed, and his face showed yearning.
Hearing Guan Tao's description, Xiao Yu frowned slightly, this place is so weird?
And, it seems, this treasure is in a big array?
However, this also explains why, for so many years, no one has found out.
It didn't matter, though, whatever it was, he wanted to see it.
That's where the King of Shu appeared.
"By the way, you said it will only appear every ten years?" Xiao Yu suddenly thought of a question, if the time was not right, it would be in vain.
Guan Tao said: "Today happens to be the 15th day of July in another decade. ”
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, patted Guan Tao's shoulder, and said, "Sure enough, it's better to be in time than to be in a hurry, without further ado, let's set off immediately." ”
Guan Tao nodded, put away the map, walked in front, and guided the direction.
The two picked up speed and descended into the jungle.
The night was silent, and the beast was silent.
Soon, we came to the place described on the map.
In front of him was a small river, and behind the small river, a black forest appeared, which was eerie and terrifying.
Foggy and eerie.
"This should be it. Guan Tao looked at the map and nodded.
Xiao Yu looked around, and without hesitation, he took the lead in the forest.
Guan Tao followed closely behind, heading towards the horror of the unknown.
...
Just after the two entered the black forest, on the periphery of the jungle, Yin Shisan's face suddenly turned gloomy and stopped.
"Helmsman, what's wrong?" said one of the killers next to him curiously.
Yin 13 frowned and said, "The green worm and the mother worm, can't you sense it?"
"How is that possible?" the killer exclaimed, "that boy, is it a martial artist?"
Yin Shisan's face was gloomy, and he shook his head and said, "Impossible! If that kid was a martial artist, he would have killed us all a long time ago, how could he run away?"
"Could that be dead?" asked the other killer.
Yin Shisan's brows tightened, and he shook his head again: "Not sure, there is such a possibility." But I felt like his breath was vanishing out of thin air. ”
"Let's go to the place before his breath disappears first, we want to see people in life, and we want to see corpses in death!" Yin Shisan said hatefully, "He'd better not die, we can't let him die so easily!"
Yin 13 gritted his teeth, and his mood couldn't be calmed down for a long time.
This Xiao Yu has caused him too much trouble, and he even killed his employer in front of him, which is really unbearable.
"Yes!" all the killers took the order, followed closely behind, and searched into the depths of the Northern Hellworld Valley.
