Chapter 196: The Forgotten Village

The knife went in and out, and the flame in Xia Xiao's eyes was even more vigorous. He had forgotten that this was the first beast he had killed, and he didn't know how many times his hands had been stained with blood. He cleansed the dried scabs with fresh blood, and the end was darker blood, like proof of the unforgivability of sin.

In one breath, I can't loosen the strings that have always been tightened. Shu Shuang's body was also stained with the most hated blood. Her lips turned slightly white, desperate to end the fight. But this monotonous battle had been going on for nearly half an hour, and she had been repeating simple movements, but the blood was not brilliant, but it borered her.

How long will this kind of battle last? Shu Shuang looked around, and there was only a sea of corpses. There are no vultures waiting for a feast in the sky, no piled seagulls, for all living things are destroyed. The stench of blood in the air was annoying, the blood stains on the ground were disgusting, Shu Shuang gradually became uncomfortable, and Xia Xiao was half a beat slower to hear his name call.

"Go to the city. ”

Xia Xiao nudged Shu Shuang's back, causing him to spread his wings to the ruins. This broken and dilapidated place is the last pure land of this heaven and earth, which is absurd and regrettable.

Looking at Shu Shuang's body, which trembled slightly due to excessive force, Xia Xiao felt distressed for a while, but this was only the second wave, and there was also the third and fourth waves. How can inter-ethnic fighting be stopped? The words in the book are always old, and the war casualties are recorded in detail, but there is no mention of the end, or only a few words in a hurry. It seems simple, but it's not that easy.

Turning his head, Xia Xiao wanted to ask his seniors what to do next? Now the situation is special, if they continue to resist the impact of the third wave of desolate beasts, I am afraid that someone will be sacrificed, but if they leave, the border of Great Xia will be opened.

Tangled choices are the hardest to make, but people who are really capable will change the problem.

The blood mist in the air was so deep that it didn't block the view. But when Xia Xiao turned around, there was no bright color around him.

Well?

Xia Xiaogang's nerves tensed again, and his eyes quickly turned, observing the movements around him.

It seemed to be dark, which was not the case before. Looking at the gloomy sky and the gray air around him, Xia Xiao had a sense of déjà vu. When he went to Rongcheng from Longgang, he had also seen such darkness, and he also encountered a wisp of black smoke, which could be crushed by the master.

Thinking of this, Xia Xiao clenched the Pu knife, and all the vitality in his body was mobilized. Now that Shu Shuang is not around, neither are Ju Mang and Woe Dou, he seems to be isolated alone, as if he has fallen into a trap that has been prepared for a long time, and there are many dangers around him.

The beautiful forest is intoxicating, but at night the dark forest has become a quiet and strange existence, and every tree is like a hidden ghost, watching every move in the world. If you are not careful, you will be chewed and devoured. At this time, the herd of beasts that died became such strange trees, and they gave Xia Xiao a feeling that he was about to be resurrected, and he didn't feel pain after getting up, but only frantically gnawed.

Subconsciously took two steps back, and a sound was like thunder, like a thunderbolt in a sunny day, and it fell violently for nine days.

"Xia Xiao. ”

"Who?"

Xia Xiao's voice was very loud, and he turned around when he roared, eager to take all directions, the top of his head and his feet into his eyes. But suddenly, everything returned to normal, as if the curtain that had been hidden before the eyes had been opened.

The surroundings were clear again, the sun was no longer faint, only the bloody air in the air was still the same. Xia Xiao's face was dazed, and there was Hu Bugui with a look.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Hu Bugui, who had not yet turned into a human form, Xia Xiao couldn't slow down. Did he call himself a senior before? How could he have such a strong sense of fear? Xia Xiao had already experienced enough tribulations, in Longgang, in Rongcheng, in Wanling Valley, he had practiced a skill, and his body's natural reaction was an afterthought, and he never made a mistake. But he felt an awe-inspiring murderous aura before, although he didn't know where it came from, but such a strong aura, why didn't his predecessors feel it?

Ju Mang and Scourge sensed the danger and gathered around Xia Xiao. It was the first time that Scourge had been so serious, letting go of the head of the beast he was biting, sniffing the source of the dangerous gas in the air.

Shu Shuang also sensed that something was wrong, what happened to Xia Xiao?

Tightly frowning, Xia Xiao said slowly:

"Senior, did you notice anything unusual before?"

Hu Bugui shook his head, but he didn't feel that Xia Xiao was convulsing, but felt the surroundings quite carefully. The range of perception gradually widened, spreading from under the feet to the surroundings for dozens of miles, or even hundreds of miles, but there was no special existence.

"Maybe I'm overthinking. ”

Xia Xiao had something crawling on his face, and when he reached out to touch it, he realized that it was a cold sweat. Before he knew it, he was drenched in sweat. The sweat melted the blood, making him feel like he was being watered with blood, and he was extremely embarrassed.

The fear and powerlessness from the heart made Xia Xiao unhappy, but Hu Bugui still issued orders.

"The vice president and the president of the head church have gone into the forest, the war has stopped, who will go to a remote place to pick up a few old people who are isolated from the world?"

With Linxi City as the boundary, a line can be drawn on the map of Great Xia, and there are only the instructors of the Ning Divine Academy and the elders of the Adventurers' Guild within the line. Among them, they have been razed by the desolate beast twice, since there are still people alive, or are they old men? Everyone was a little incredible, but Xia Xiao took a step ahead of everyone and took the lead in raising his hand.

"I'll go with Shushuang. ”

"This pick-up is counted as a second-class mission, let's go! They are sixty kilometers away in the northwest. ”

This distance is not too far, Xia Xiao sealed his hands, and after Ju Mang and Scourge left, he and Shu Shuang spread their wings together and headed towards it. Shu Shuang wanted to ask Xia Xiao what was wrong, but she didn't ask, so the latter took the initiative to say:

"There was a very strange feeling that we should stay away from everyone so as not to drag them down. ”

Shu Shuang nodded, her face calm, but the more she was like this, the more strange Xia Xiao felt.

The last time he saw the black smoke, Shu Shuang couldn't help but show a light blue vitality, and a sense of disgust arose. But now there is no reaction, is the power in Shu Shuang's body no longer existing, or is it no longer the black smoke that is attacking him?

If not, nature is the best. But if so, the choices they make now may be dangerous. Only the Master can face that wisp of black smoke, and they must stay away from everyone. But themselves, in trouble!

After flying for a full minute, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang left this sea of corpses, but what kind of people from a village should be able to block the impact of the two desolate beasts?

Xia Xiao was upset, and Shu Shuang was not easy to comfort, because she didn't know why. Usually she could guess Xia Xiao's thoughts, but now she was very confused, as if she had become a stranger, and she didn't understand what he was thinking.

No matter how close people are, when they do something or say something, they will become so rusty. But the concern is the same, Shu Shuang came to Xia Xiao's side, and grabbed his blood-stained hand in the cold wind, like a kind of companionship.

The tense strings in his heart loosened a little, Xia Xiao looked at Shu Shuang and smiled slightly, but he didn't dare to let down his vigilance. Maybe something like that will happen on this road.

Outside Linxi City, Long Suihong walked to Hu Bugui's side, bowed and asked:

"Senior, there are still people who haven't withdrawn?"

"I'm curious, too, but that's what the instructor in front of me said!"

Hu Bugui is a desolate beast, and he knows the power of the desolate beast army best. Not to mention a small mountain village, even a city can be easily leveled. Under such deterrence, it is incredible that there are still people who have survived. And he didn't feel anyone when he sensed a radius of 100 miles before!

Because it was very close, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang quickly rushed to the remote place in the mouth of their predecessors, but it was only half an hour. But if it weren't for Xia Xiao's careful observation, he wouldn't have been able to find this small mountain village. Sandwiched between two mountains, with only a few small dilapidated houses, it's no wonder it's forgotten.

From the sky, there is a road next to the small mountain village that has been stepped out by wild beasts, which is extremely spacious, and the footprints of the shape of ** have passed through it and left their own marks. This avenue is only a kilometer away from the small mountain village, like a scar that passes by the main artery, and the slightest passing can kill you.

"Strange ......"

This is the word Xia Xiao said the most today, Shu Shuang is strange, it was strange before, and the small mountain village is also strange. He and Shu Shuang landed on the avenue, no matter how you look at it, this small mountain village is very conspicuous, why can't the wild beasts see it?

The obvious purpose of their trip is to kill people, young and old, male and female. If only one wild beast passes by, it may not be seen, but there are at least tens of thousands of wild beasts passing by, and they are hurrying with their eyes closed?

Smacking his tongue, Xia Xiao is close to a small mountain village, the so-called small village, there are actually only four households. By a stream, four courtyards of different sizes are neatly arranged, with baogu peppers and green onions neatly tied and hung on the wall, not like some kind of strong man living in seclusion here.

Stepping across the small bridge, Xia Xiao let go of his hand and stuck the knife in place. His hands were covered in blood, and he was carrying a knife, which was a little scary. Walking up a few steps, he and Shu Shuang saw a girl who was almost the same age as himself, with long maroon hair, simply tied into a ponytail, without any ornaments. The rag skirt was full of patches, but it became a distinctive feature.

At first glance, Xia Xiao felt that she was very clean, except for Shu Shuang, she was the cleanest girl he had ever seen, without the slightest worldliness, and without stepping into the mortal world. It's a strange thing that there is such a presence in this wilderness.

The girl grabbed a hen with one hand and stuffed it into the cage, not forgetting to babble.

"If you run around again, I won't leave you to lay eggs, and I'll let grandma stew you into soup. ”

The hen, who had a sudden violent personality, finally settled down and sat quietly on the ground, lest she flutter her wings again and be killed to make soup.

Seeing it like this, the girl crossed her waist quite proudly, and a trace of satisfaction appeared on her little face. She was born with a melon seed face, and her face was full of youthful vitality, as if she could never settle down. As soon as the hen was caught, the girl went to hug the puppy, and the little yellow dog was a continuation of the life of the old yellow dog. When she was a child, she sat on a small wooden cart, and the old yellow dog pulled her to run in the yard, and now she holds the little yellow dog and sings songs in the yard.

She chattered for a long time, Xia Xiao didn't understand a word, like a dialect, it was probably taught by her grandmother. After standing for a long time, she didn't notice it, Xia Xiao lost her patience and said:

"Please pack your things and get out of here with us!"
