Chapter 187: The undercurrent is surging
The two left the Song Mansion and did not speak all the way.
Just as Li Xian knows Li Zhao, Li Zhao also knows Li Xian, although usually when he is with Li Xian, he is like a tool man most of the time, inconspicuous and non-existent.
But Li Zhao is only blind in one eye, not completely blind, and he will also notice the details that Li Xian can notice, so there is nothing to discuss between the two.
What we have to do now is nothing more than two steps, peeling back the cocoon and touching the truth.
And when he noticed that something was wrong with the father and son of the Han family, Li Xian did not choose to attack at the first time, because he had his own considerations.
The reason is that there are a lot of variables now.
First, the Xingshan disappeared, although the possibility of being killed is extremely low, but the possibility of being killed cannot be ruled out, so it has to be assumed that there is a very strong master in secret.
Second, if this is the case, there will be great hidden dangers in summary, so Li Xian needs to wait a little longer.
Just when the two of them were falling into their own thoughts.
Li Zhao, who was following behind Li Xian, raised his eyebrows suddenly, and said in his mouth: "Young master...... We need to pick up the ingots. β
Li Xian stopped, turned his head and asked in surprise:
I said...... How do you communicate?
"Yuanbao should be some distance from us, right?"
Li Xian walked to Li Zhao's side, squatted slightly, put his big hand on Li Zhao's shoulder, and raised his eyebrows: "You tell the young master...... How do you communicate with ingots. β
Hearing this, Li Zhao blinked his eyes and smiled helplessly: "Young Master......"
Li Xian looked at Li Zhao fixedly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said boringly: "Okay...... The young master is not important in your heart, it seems that the status of the young master in your heart is not as important as ingots. β
"That's it, that's it, you've grown up too. β
Li Xian looked dejected, let go of the hand on Li Zhao's shoulder, and walked in front, his back was lonely and depressed.
Li Zhao was a little flustered at this time...... After hesitating twice, he came to Li Xian in three steps and two steps, and hurriedly said in his mouth:
"Young master, let me tell you, it's ......"
"Hahaha!"
Li Xian turned his face, where was a depressed look, the corners of his mouth were holding back a smile, looking like you had been fooled, and he laughed loudly:
"You were deceived by me, who told you to come with me in the guest room at that time. β
"Young Master......"
Li Zhao's mentality collapsed, and he didn't blame him entirely, Li Xian was too important in his heart.
"Alright, alright, let's go pick up the ingots. β
Li Xian hurriedly put his hand on Li Zhao's back, and the two left the village and walked to an unknown place.
......
About ten minutes later, the two of them came to a small dense forest, so full of trees that even the high winter day could not penetrate the dense branches, and under their feet were piles of dead branches and leaves, as if they were going to sink if they were any heavier.
Suddenly, a high-pitched horse cry sounded in the dense forest.
Li Xian's pupils opened slightly, and he muttered to himself: "No, this guy is so powerful!?"
A red flame walked out of the dense forest, and if you look closely, you can find that this is a red flame, which is clearly a red horse, more than twice as large as ordinary horses, and more than three meters in sight.
"Twitterβ"
A discordant voice rang out over Akama's head.
When the two looked at it, it turned out that Yuan Bao was sitting on the horse's head and waving his claws at the two.
When he got a little closer, Yuan Bao staggered to his feet, balanced his body slightly, and jumped forward.
Li Zhao hurriedly took two steps forward, took the little guy, and looked at it with doting eyes.
Yuan Bao stood firm for a moment, then jumped to his shoulder, and his dark blue pupils watched Li Zhao start to chatter.
Li Xian originally wanted to hear how they communicated, but when he came back to his senses, he patted his forehead gently, but he didn't understand, his communication with the snake master was still forced by him to order the snake to learn to write.
So he turned his attention to the horse.
The red horse looked a little sluggish, and there were many wounds all over his body, but fortunately they were all blood scabs, but because his hair was too bright and bright, it was really not easy to see from a distance.
And keep them extremely vigilant, after the ingots left the top of its head, it hid behind the ancient tree and couldn't come for a long time, but I didn't expect the ingots to be so communicative.
Li Xian looked at the horse, swallowed his saliva unconsciously, he was really greedy, this red horse was so handsome, that hair, that posture, that demeanor...... Oh, my God!
If he hadn't joined the army, he really didn't have much feeling for the creature of horses, and he was in a hurry, and he could run much faster than a horse on his own feet.
But when riding, that feeling is not at all the pleasure of running can be compared, helpless is that it is difficult to have a suitable horse with his weight and height, Wang Jinglin gave him the black horse, although it is superior, but it is too difficult to run with him.
As if feeling Li Xian's burning gaze, the red horse's extremely humane eyes revealed a sense of arrogance, and he sneezed disdainfully, and his crimson tail swayed like a flame.
'Little one!'
Li Xian's eyes were a little playful, his eyes closed slightly, and he saw that the black and white eyes suddenly changed into dragon pupils, as if the scarlet aura of the corpse mountain and sea of blood was revealed.
The coercion of the High Dragon genus descended directly on Akama's mind.
Hearing only a wail, the red horse staggered, as if it was about to fall to the ground in the next second, and if it hadn't happened to be standing next to the ancient tree to support its figure, it would have to kneel down this time.
However, what made Li Xian interested was this horse, despite such pressure, the arrogance in his eyes still existed, but compared to just now, his eyes were now burning with anger and dissatisfaction.
'Character!'
Quietly, it changed back to black and white eyes, Li Xian didn't really want to bully a horse, just give it a little meaning, and let this horse with eyes above the top a little self-aware.
After a short while, Yuan Bao and Li Zhao finally finished communicating.
Li Zhao looked at the one person and one horse in front of him who were 'fighting' with his eyes, and felt a little helpless, sometimes the young master shook his head like a child, walked forward and said to Li Xian:
"Young Master...... Yuan Bao discovered something.
"When Yuan Bao came back last night, he found that the whole village was shrouded in white mist, but he only bypassed the area where the government was stationed, and when he came back, he was already blocked outside, but Yuan Bao felt that it was very dangerous, so he hid here all night. β
Li Xian tilted his head slightly, his eyes drooped, and asked, "White Mist?"
"Yes......"
"Are there any other clues?"
Li Zhao glanced at the horse in the distance and said, "When Yuan Bao was hiding here, he found this horse. He gestured with his hands, and finally gave up helplessly, and he couldn't vividly express what Yuan Bao looked like when he told him.
"Anyway, the two of them exchanged ideas, which probably meant that its owner was captured by an ugly-looking man and locked up in the village, and the man was very strong, and the injuries on his body were only caused by the man's wave of his hand. β
"Ugly man ......"
Li Xian touched his chin and muttered.
"Although this news is good or not, it at least proves that the girl on the picture scroll is here, and it seems that the mystery will not be revealed until the evening.
β...... They should be there then. β
"Well, if nothing else. β
"Okay, let's go back first. β
In the end, Yuan Bao ran to the horse and chattered for a while, and the red horse nodded, glanced at Li Xian, and returned to the depths of the dense forest.
......
When Li Xian and Li Zhao returned to the station, it was already time (around three o'clock in the afternoon).
In the lobby, Wei Zhutou sat at a table in the center, drinking stuffy wine, and Ding Qing and Zhou Zhutou held knives and leaned against the beams and pillars to close their eyes and recuperate.
The "inseparable" five-member group of the Chamber of Commerce sat at two separate tables this time, and the four of them sat together, but Shen Ping was the only one with a gloomy face, sitting alone in the corner, and it seemed that the relationship had deteriorated for some reason.
When he saw Li Xian and the two coming in, Wei Zhutou hurriedly put down the wine glass, hurriedly came to the front and asked loudly, "Two or five hundred masters, did you kill that demon beast?"
He took another step to the right, looked behind Li Xian, and wondered, "Isn't Xing Zhutou with you?"
At this time, Li Xian saw Ding Qing next to Liang Zhu open his eyes, bowed his head slightly, and understood in his heart, and said: "We went round at the entrance of the village with the head of the torture in the morning, and it took a lot of effort to find the white ape.
"Although the strength of that demon beast is not comparable to the two of us, the kung fu of escaping for life is not bad at that time, Xing Zhutou is afraid that when we leave for too long, there will be an accident in the village, he will go to solve the white ape by himself, and I will come back first." β
patted Wei Zhutou's shoulder quite hard, with a gentle smile on his face, and said with relief:
"Don't worry, that demon beast can't beat Xing Zhutou, all that's left is to deal with the killer hidden in the village. β
Hearing this, the five-person group who listened with their ears pricked up on the side suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and even the big stone in Wei Zhutou's heart was put down together, and he gently exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said with a smile: "This time, I would like to thank the two or five hundred masters for coming to the rescue." β
Li Xian shook his head slightly and said, "It's a matter of duty." Then he asked, "Is there a murder in the village today?"
Wei Zhutou replied, "Not really. β
"Tonight may not be very peaceful, Wei Zhutou and his brothers should pay more attention, and they must not be careless. β
When saying "brothers", Li Xian's eyes looked at the five-person group, not to mention the strength of those martial artists in the inner forging realm, the aspect of human sophistication alone can be said to be extremely deep.
With a bang, the chairs moved away, and they all got up and hugged their fists and said, "Follow the orders of the two or five hundred lords." β
"Good!"
After speaking, Li Xian took Li Zhao straight to the room on the third floor.
The door closed slightly, and the tense atmosphere in the lobby melted slightly, and I could vaguely hear what to eat tonight.
......
Hai time.
In the room, Li Xian whispered to Li Zhao, more Li Zhao was talking, Li Xian listened, and added from time to time. (There is no need to communicate with the power of God when Xingshan is not there, with his strength, if someone approaches or eavesdrops, he can detect it at the first time.) οΌ
The content of the conversation is nothing more than to check and fill in the gaps in the previous plans of the two people, take some variables and the like into account, and arrange relevant back-ups.
This kind of meeting, the two have long been tacit and accustomed to it, whether it was when they entered Wujun or when they were plotting to seize the Black Dragon Gang, they discussed it like this.
At this time, Yuan Bao was sleepy-eyed and came out of Li Zhao's arms, and I don't know if the little guy did it on purpose, controlling his body size to a size that was just enough to stay in Li Zhao's arms.
In this way, outsiders can't see it, and Li Zhao doesn't feel uncomfortable when he usually walks.
"Shhhh
The hair on the ingot's body suddenly exploded, and when it crawled out, it happened to see a big blue-black python lying on the iron line, spitting snake letters.
The breath of the little guy attracted the attention of the snake master, and he transferred his cold vertical pupils to Yuanbao, and saw that the little squirrel on the human body looked like he was about to be scared to death, and the snake kiss deliberately grinned viciously.
This scared Yuan Bao out of his body, his two claws grabbed Li Zhao's neck tightly, his little head couldn't help arching upward, his two calves kicked in fright, and his throat made a "woo woo" grievance sound.
The snake lord grinned with a gloating smile on his vicious face, it didn't mean to scare the ingot, but it couldn't help but tease the little guy when he saw that he was so afraid of it.
The relationship between the two is really in the category of natural enemies, in fact, seriously speaking, with the courage of ingots, they will not be afraid to such an extent when they see a snake.
The main reason is that the two beasts are from Yandang Mountain, and Yuan Bao has seen the snake master several times in the depths of the mountains and forests a long time ago, and its smell is very familiar.
Although its little head couldn't understand why such a huge python had become so small now, that breath could never be wrong!
As soon as the snake master wanted to spit out the snake letter, he felt a cold chill that made it can't help but stand up in scales and armor, and the snake's head flicked slightly, and found that Li Xian was squinting at it.
'Well, the little one has two backers. The snake master thought to himself.
simply lay on the iron wire and pretended to be dead.
Li Zhaozheng comforted Yuan Bao with a distressed face, and after the latter was not so nervous, he got into his arms and never came out again.
After Li Xian finished warning the snake master, he didn't pursue it anymore, and his fingers tapped his knees in deep thought.
Gotta get things sorted out tonight!
......
At the same time, somewhere in the village.
It looks like the underground, surrounded by rough stone walls, but what is frightening is that the stone walls are covered with dark red and black blood stains, and there is a blood fountain in the center.
I saw that on the bloody surface, countless pale human hands floated on it, and under the water, there were miserable white human faces, with distorted facial features, lingering fear and resentment on the faces, staring at the rolling eyes, up and down, and the people who looked at it trembled, like falling into an ice cave.
Next to the blood fountain, a man facing the ugly man sat on the ground with a golden knife, with a monstrous malice on his face, and if you looked closely, you could also find that there was a deep scar on the man's chest, and the darkness on it was corroding the flesh and blood.
This person was one of the three people who were outside the Plain County and were waiting for an opportunity to find the tree spirit (Yan Kuan).
The man casually pulled out a corpse from the blood fountain and bit it with a big mouth, and the blood splashed all over his face, adding to the ferocity.
Pei Biao's eyes flashed with cruelty, only to see that as the flesh and blood on the corpse were constantly devoured, the darkness on his chest gradually disappeared, until there was no trace left.
"Phew......"
A phalanx bone was spat out, and a skull wrapped in blood-colored fat was tossed aside, and its jaw fell off as if grinning.
"Wait...... We're done tonight. β
Pei Biao muttered to himself, he could sense that the human with the coffin behind him was snatching control of the Spirit Eater Gu, but it was just ...... It's a beautiful thought.
Thinking of this, the ugly cheeks pulled out a trace of ferocity.
If it weren't for the fact that the Spirit Eater Gu could be better cultivated and not alarm the two people on the official side, he would have torn that human being apart last night and eaten every inch of that man's flesh and blood.
"I just don't know if they got rid of that dead monkey?" Pei Biao thought to himself.
The longer it dragged on, the more variables there were, and the less safe the plan became, but fortunately, they had already estimated these risks at the beginning, and it was not surprising that the government would send a strong person to investigate.
A new reincarnation is about to begin tonight, and this reincarnation is over...... It's a perfect job to complete.
Pei Biao got up and looked at the blood spring, his narrow eyes narrowed, as if the space was changing, and a woman in a tattered fiery red wedding dress was lying below at the bottom of the spring.
The face was filled with indelible hatred.
"It's an amazing piece. The man couldn't help but praise. People, what an interesting race. β
"So...... We're going to get started. β
......
Time flies, and it comes to the sub-hour.
A thin white mist began to surge out from the Han Mansion and began to surround the entire village, and this time the white mist did not bypass the official residence again.
The undercurrent is turbulent,
It's time for the show!
