Chapter Seventy-Four: News from the Crowd
Innate understood Ling Yun's situation, and then asked the question he was most concerned about: "Then senior brother, do you know that a few months ago, someone entered the depths of this mountain?"
Ling Yun shook his head and said, "I've been in this area for the past year, and I haven't seen anyone else, but if you want to find someone, I can help." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the entire endless mountain dare not say, I am still familiar with this radius of thousands of miles. ”
After hearing this, Tiansheng was relieved: "With a senior brother, I will be at ease." ”
Ling Yun slowly looked to the side, looked at Gu Tianxue and asked, "Who is this, junior brother, don't you hurry up and introduce it." ”
Only then did Tiansheng react and introduced: "This is Gu Tianxue, the princess of Jiang Kingdom, my friend." Then he continued: "Tianxue, this is Senior Brother Lingyun. ”
"It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess, Ling Yun was rude. Ling Yun said and bowed, with a gentlemanly demeanor.
"Senior Brother Lingyun just call me Tianxue. Gu Tianxue also returned the salute.
"Brother Tiansheng, haven't you introduced anyone yet?" Hu Jiu, who was ignored on the side, was not happy.
"What a strange fox, born, this is your spiritual pet?"
Tiansheng listened and smiled: "It's a friend, and what's weird, at most it's just a cute little fox." ”
I haven't seen each other for many years, and I chatted with Ling Yun for a whole night.
It wasn't until the early morning of the second day that Ling Yun decided to leave here and set off with Tiansheng. And when everyone set off, the two three-eyed wolf eyes were extremely human, and they were reluctant to give up on Ling Yun, until Ling Yun coaxed a full stick of incense, and then left with the two people who were waiting outside.
Seeing this scene, it made Tiansheng involuntarily look at Hu Jiu on the side, they were all so sticky.
According to Ling Yun, the two three-eyed wolves were rescued by him under a huge two-headed snake, and their parents had already died in battle to protect the two wolf cubs.
I can't help but sigh after listening to it, this is the law of nature, survival of the fittest, and natural selection. If you don't strengthen yourself, you will eventually be eliminated, but I just hope that these two three-eyed wolves, who are still young, can finally grow to the point of being on their own.
With their familiarity with the environment, under the leadership of Ling Yun, it took half a month for the group to finally see the traces of many people staying. There were bonfires that had been lit, footprints left by people, all of which showed that everyone was looking in the right direction, and it was not far away.
The group continued to move forward, and there were more and more corpses of demonic beasts along the road, with traces of being bitten, and at first glance, they fought with the brute beasts and died. But more than that, it's a neat wound, a sword is fatal, and this is a man-made trace.
At night, a bonfire was lit on a hill. The three of them sat around a campfire.
"Now there are more and more corpses of demonic beasts along the way, and it can be judged that we are getting closer and closer to the boundary entrance. And the group of people who are looking for the border are ahead of us. Just keep on our way, and we'll be able to find them soon. Ling Yun said.
"Yes, but I don't know why, the closer I got, the more uneasy I become, and I always feel that something bad is happening. ”
"Born you don't have to worry about it. Ling Yun said: "Judging from the current situation, the boundary gate can only allow demonic beasts to pass through, and the stronger the strength, the greater the resistance to being sealed. There shouldn't be a powerful demon for the time being, otherwise the whole world will be chaotic. ”
"In that case, it's okay for us to be careful. Gu Tianxue also said.
After resting like this all night, the group set off again early the next morning.
......
At this time, in a large mountain thousands of miles away from Tiansheng and his party, a team of dozens of people was resting. Yesterday night, they were attacked by nearly a thousand demonic beasts, and although everyone cultivated to a high level, they also fought fiercely until dawn and annihilated all demonic beasts. Only one of the more than 30 people in the team died, and more than 10 people were slightly injured, which is a remarkable achievement.
In fact, the people who can be here are all experienced in a hundred battles and are the leaders in the door, otherwise they would have been frightened when they encountered such a large wave of magical beasts, where would there be such a record?
More than 30 people, in groups of three or five, sat according to the sect. In a remote corner, five people sat together, discussing yesterday's battle.
"Yurou, be careful in the future, if it weren't for Senior Sister Zhuoyue yesterday, you would be in danger. ”
He Shu said that he was a little afraid, yesterday Yurou rushed into the group of demonic beasts alone, isolated and helpless. If Zhuo Yue hadn't risked the danger and killed a bloody path and brought Yurou out, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"I know my own business, where is the danger, no matter how many of these monsters are, they can't hurt a single cold hair of mine. Yurou glared at He Shu, with a very powerful look, don't underestimate me.
"You're embarrassed to say it. He Shu shook his head and said in a rambling voice: "Now that I have entered the depths of the mountain, it is no better than being on the periphery. What's more, we act separately, and without a few seniors to take care of us, we should pay more attention to safety. Especially you, if you have the worst cultivation, you have to be more careful. ”
Yurou pouted, a little unconvinced: "I know that my cultivation is poor, and I have improved a lot." It would be nice if Senior Brother Tiansheng was here, and no one would say anything about me if he was at the bottom. ”
After Lin Fengjue on the side heard this, he laughed.
"You two can talk a little less in the future, and talk endlessly every day, is it interesting?" As soon as Xuanyuan Yao spoke, He Shu and Yurou immediately closed their mouths.
And Zhuo Yue had a cold face, rarely spoke, and was in a daze many times, not knowing what she was thinking. In this combination, many times the scene is silent, and only He Shu and Yurou talk from time to time, but it won't take long for Xuanyuan Yao to stop. At this point, there is often a longer silence.
Just as everyone was resting, a man quietly ran into the dense forest, unbuttoned his pants, and just as he was urinating, he saw that the forest was filled with fog at some point, and the fog was still flashing with red light, making a rustling sound.
The man carefully lifted his pants and drew the sword behind him, staring at the eerie mist. The more I looked at it, the more panicked I felt in my heart, and with a stroke of the sword, a sword light was sent out, and it slashed towards the fog. But only the sound of "bang" was heard, and the sword seemed to hit some hard object and was neutralized. And this is a dense forest, what is there but the big trees?
The man who found something wrong was about to go back and tell everyone the news, but he heard a rustling sound getting louder and louder, and then the man's pupils dilated, and he saw a skeleton with red eyes coming out of the fog.
"Ah......h
A miserable scream resounded through the mountains and forests, and more than 30 people resting in place were immediately alert, and several people rushed to the place where the sound came from at great speed, only to see that the man had been entangled in a strange red light, and was dragged into the fog little by little.
"Save me, save me. ”
The man lay on the ground and begged the few people in front of him, and he was already weak when he heard the voice.
One person couldn't bear to see it, and was about to move forward to rescue, but was stopped by a person next to him: "Don't go, this fog is weird." ”
"Then you can't die without help, right?"
The man said, ignoring the obstacles, he drew his sword and rushed forward, and was about to cut off the strange red light, but two more red lights shot out of the mist, entangled one of them, and the two of them were instantly dragged into the red light, and there was no movement at all.
"Retreat, everyone. ”
One shouted and told everyone to retreat. But when the people who had just arrived came back from the scene just now, they found that all around were almost covered with this strange fog, only the southeast had not yet been covered with fog.
There was no one to command, and everyone fled towards the only way out. Zhuo Yue's cold face showed a hint of anxiety. While running, he reminded everyone in the Sword Gate to be careful.
This strange fog is really terrifying, and the unknown danger is full of fear.
Even though everyone reacted quickly, in the process of escaping, the red light shot out, dragging people into the fog. For a while, the screams continued, and the people who had faced nearly a thousand demonic beasts without fear could now only flee in panic.
......
Looking at the situation in front of him, his heart sank. Along the way, I found the corpses of many people, as many as a dozen, with dry and old skin, as if they had been sucked into their vitality. It's a surprise, and there must be something horrible going on.
Just as Tiansheng was checking, he heard a loud shout: "Who is it?"
Instantly turned his head to look back, but saw that Ling Yun and Gu Tianxue had already rushed forward. And the figures in the dense forest were surging, and someone was running quickly, but after a few breaths, he was caught by Ling Yun and fell to the ground with a light flick
"Who are you, what are you doing hiding behind you?"
"I'm from the Kunhua faction, called Sun Monkey, and I'm here to find out the news, but I didn't know that I was arrested by you just after I arrived here. ”
What I saw was a man with sharp beak and monkey cheeks, as thin as a monkey. Sure enough, it is a person who lives up to his name.
"Investigating the news?" Gu Tianxue stared at Sun Monkey suspiciously: "Then why are you so sneaky and run away when you see us?"
"I looked at the corpses here, and I didn't know you, so I thought about going back to report it, but I was caught by you. Seeing that the person in front of him would not hurt himself, Sun Monkey said honestly.
Tiansheng gently walked up to Sun Monkey and helped him up: "You said that you are investigating the news, so how many people are there here, and what is the situation now, you can tell us well." ”
Sun Monkey stood up, and when he saw that the three of them had no malicious intent, he spoke slowly.
It turned out that there were more than 400 people in all the sects and sects, and in order to find the boundary pass, they entered this endless mountain. At this point, there are more and more demonic beasts, indicating that it is getting closer and closer to the boundary gate. Several leading seniors scattered the crowd and divided them into more than a dozen teams for investigation, and in order to understand the situation of each team, there will be people between the teams to make special contact.
The team had been out of touch for three days, so Sun Monkey was sent out to understand the situation. After that, Sun Monkey finally found the traces of this team, but was caught by Ling Yun.
"Oh, then among these four hundred, is there a disciple of my Sword Sect?" asked Tiansheng.
Hearing this, Sun Monkey was taken aback, slurred, slurred, and said for a long time that he didn't understand what he said.
"You can tell me whether there is or not. When he said this, there was a slight impatience in his tone.
"Yes...... Yes, but ......"
"But what? Gu Tianxue was originally anxious, and when she saw Sun Monkey squirming and pinching, she really wanted to slap him a few times.
"There are a total of five people in the Sword Gate, and they are all in this team. ”
"What, you tell me clearly, everything is in this team, you can make it clear. Born with eyes like copper bells, he shook the monkey vigorously.
That is, they were in the same situation as the deceased, and now their lives and deaths are unknown. Sun Monkey said the answer that he was born to know.
After receiving the confirmation, he was born to lose his mind, and then turned around and was about to leave.
"Innate, where are you going?" As soon as he turned around, he was shouted by Ling Yun.
"I'm going to look for them, and since there are no bodies of them, they must be fine. ”
Born to speak, but the old times come to mind.
As soon as he said goodbye that day, he made up his mind in his heart that he must cultivate hard in order to keep up with Zhuo Yue's footsteps. Now I have come to this endless mountain, and I have followed their footsteps all the way. I thought we would see each other soon, but who knew that before we met, we got the news of uncertain life and death, what a torture it was?
"The Endless Mountain is so big, can you find them?" Gu Tianxue asked.
Tiansheng's footsteps stopped, and he said without looking back: "If you can't find it, you have to look for it, I don't believe they died like this." ”
"If you believe they're not dead, why are you in such a hurry? Since you are looking for someone, didn't Sun Monkey also say it, there are many people there there, and everyone's strength is much greater than yours alone. ”
"Yes, yes, yes. Sun Monkey also hurriedly responded: "You go back with me, as long as you report it, they will definitely send someone to look for it, and if there are many people at that time, it will be easier to find someone." ”
Hearing this, Tiansheng hesitated, then gritted his teeth, seemed to have made up his mind, turned around and said, "Okay, just listen to you." ”
