Volume 1 Blood Pact Chapter 24 The Reader in the Bamboo Forest
"It's snowing. ”
Ba Fenghan raised his head, and the snowflakes fell on his face, making his originally muddy mind a little clearer.
The backlash of the secret technique intensified, and that power completely exceeded the load of his meridians, and now as the power returned to the seal of the sea of spiritual energy like a tide, more than sixty percent of the meridians of his whole body had been destroyed.
Cheng Xue didn't know this, but as Ba Fenghan's movements became slower and slower, and the exposed skin gradually oozed blood droplets, she realized that the man next to her might be difficult to support.
After Ba Fenghan suddenly vomited blood, Cheng Xue hurriedly stepped forward to help, and said with teary eyes: "You can't escape, if you continue like this, your body will collapse before they catch up." ”
Ba Fenghan endured the severe pain and reached out to wipe the tears from her face, "If you stop now, you will really lose your efforts, since Zhao Zetao and them got involved, it is not just your business, I can't die now, you have to live well." ”
It was getting late, and the night in the forest would only come sooner.
He looked back at the little blood stains dripping along the way, if it weren't for the heavy snow cover at this time, and the sky was getting darker, with their speed, I am afraid they would have been caught up by Mo Qian and the others.
Thankfully, he didn't encounter any demonic beasts along the way, otherwise with his current state, he would not be able to protect himself at all.
The two continued to trek deeper into the forest, and after wading through a stream, Bafenghan could no longer move forward, and he looked around at the towering ancient trees, and finally found a hole in front of one of the ancient trees surrounded by four people.
The hole at the root is only for one person to crawl through, and the inside stretches diagonally to about a meter underground, and then extends horizontally, not knowing where it leads. It looks like a hole made by some kind of animal, but it has been abandoned for a long time.
Luckily, the end of the ramp is spacious, barely enough for two people to sit on the floor.
After camouflaging the entrance to the cave with nearby dead branches and fallen leaves, Bai Fenghan retreated to Cheng Xue's side, and it wasn't until night came that his tense nerves relaxed slightly.
Now he still has 10,000 spirit stones, a bottle of blood condensation pill and three thunder beads on his body.
Although he is seriously injured now, it is an internal injury, and the Blood Coagulation Pill only has a miraculous effect on external injuries, and if he wants to survive this catastrophe now, he can only wait for the backlash to end completely, and then slowly warm up the damaged meridians with spiritual power, and it is difficult to use external objects at this time.
As for Lei Zhu, Ba Fenghan didn't use it from the beginning, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't. If he could, he had already used thunder beads to control the enemy when he attacked Mo Gan, so why bother to use secret techniques at the risk of backlash.
It's just that although the thunder bead is hugely powerful, it is a range of damage, and once it is thrown under the circumstances at that time, even if it can seriously injure Mo Qian, Qingluan will definitely die.
Ba Fenghan exhaled a breath of turbid breath and tried to mobilize his spiritual power again, and then a sharp pain spread from the sea of spiritual energy to the meridians of his body, and the blood beads oozing out of his skin increased again.
Still no, it seems that we can only wait for the backlash to end.
Ba Fenghan secretly trembled unconsciously due to excessive blood loss, and finally passed out in the middle of the night due to the pain.
Cheng Xue knelt on the ground, hugged Bafeng Han, who was already covered in blood, into her arms, gently wiped the blood on his cheeks with her sleeve, and probed his snort from time to time, knowing that the man in front of her was still alive, her heart would feel very steady.
By the time the faint sunlight shone in through the gap in the hole, Cheng Xue hadn't closed his eyes all night.
With the sound of footsteps at the entrance of the cave, Cheng Xue's confused nerves instantly became tense, and she subconsciously hugged the man in her arms, and the footsteps stopped abruptly at the entrance of the cave, and it did not sound again for a long time.
When Cheng Xue was about to leave to inspect the situation at the entrance of the cave, she was suddenly grabbed by a big hand.
She looked down and saw that Bai Fenghan had woken up leisurely, and when she was about to speak, the man stretched out his hand to stop her.
After a long time, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from far and near, and the man who had been at the entrance of the cave moved again, and there should have been five people outside.
It was only at this moment that Ba Fenghan cautiously moved towards the entrance of the cave.
By this time, the snow had stopped.
Through the gaps in the dead branches and weeds, Ba Fenghan had already determined that there were five people here, but because they were too close to the entrance of the cave, they could only see their lower bodies.
One of them had a very rough voice, "Childe, we can't go any deeper, we have already encountered two demonic beasts along the way, and the personnel loss is serious, if we continue like this, when that madman catches up, we don't even have the ability to resist!"
Another person's voice said hurriedly: "You mean that if there are more people, you will have the ability to resist? There were so many guards before they were not killed, but I think that compared to that person, I would rather face a demonic beast, that person is too terrifying." His voice began to tremble.
"Don't fight. A young man's voice rang out, "Continue deeper into the forest, and then turn to Quyi City, so that there is still a glimmer of life." Although there were casualties in the attack of the Demonic Beast, the interception of the Demonic Beast can also delay him, otherwise he will soon catch up, and then we will all have to die!"
"Don't wait until then, you're going to die now!" A Devil May Cry laugh floated from afar.
I saw a shadow clinging to the ground and approaching quickly from the far stream, like a snake swimming ashore, and finally stopped four or five meters away from this wave of people, condensing into a man whose whole body was shrouded in a black cloud.
Through his disguise, Bai Fenghan recognized this person at a glance as the mysterious person who was also in the living room at the beginning, who had sent half of the Heavenly Rank Spirit Technique. After being photographed by a son-in-law, he also left with him, never wanting to meet here.
After he appeared, there were no more words, and Ba Fenghan didn't even see what methods he used, and four of the five people had already fallen to the ground one after another, leaving only the young man.
At this time, the young man's voice was full of fear and despair, "That half of the spiritual skill has been handed over to you, and the other half of the storage location has also told you, why bother to kill them all? If you let me go, I swear never to mention this matter in the future!"
"I only believe that the dead can keep their mouths shut. The man raised his hand, and the young man who was a few meters away from him was suddenly pulled to his side.
It was only at this moment that Ba Fenghan saw the full picture of the young man, it was the boy who took half of the Heavenly Rank Spirit Technique.
The young man didn't dare to make the slightest movement, and let the black man's miserable white slender hand caress over his neck.
Just as the man's fingers grabbed the young man's throat, more than a dozen people came out of the forest on the other side of the stream, led by Mo Gan.
The group scattered and searched, until someone found the bloodstains covered in the snow, and then tracked them all the way, and they saw the scene in front of them without thinking.
Mo Qian didn't plan to meddle at all, there was no one who could be alone in the Warcraft Forest, not to mention that he couldn't see through the realm of men at all.
Seeing that the man was looking sideways at him, he clenched his fists and said, "Lizong cooperated with the government to arrest the important criminals, just borrowing the way, and had no intention of interfering with Your Excellency's affairs." ”
The young man who got a moment of respite heard that it was someone from the government, and he was immediately overjoyed and asked for help, "I am Guo Ru, the second son of the prime minister, this person intends to kill me, save me quickly!"
The group didn't expect that the young man was actually a blood relative of the Minister of State Guo Huai, Mo Qian and other disciples of the Li Sect were fine, and the rest of the official mansion was ready to move at this time. For them, the young man at this time represents a monstrous wealth.
The black man suddenly exerted his strength, and his slender fingers instantly inserted into the young man's throat, ripped out his entire throat and threw it aside, turned around and swept over Mo Qian and the others, and sneered: "A group of things that don't measure themselves. ”
The man's impact on Ba Fenghan was too shocking, and he didn't dare to continue looking at it for fear of being discovered, just as he carefully retreated to the bottom of the cave, the black man suddenly turned his head sideways, and a dagger filled with black smoke pierced the dead branch at the entrance of the cave, and narrowly slashed through the side of his face, submerging into the roots of the tree behind him.
Even so, the howling wind cut a tiny wound on his cheek.
"Ba Fenghan!" At the same time, Zhao Zetao was surprised.
When Mo Qian heard this, he immediately clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Although Your Excellency is leaving, we are only here for this person, and other things will never be mixed up!"
After missing the blow, the black man had already turned his attention to Mo Qian and the others again, and he didn't pay attention to the two people in the tree hole at all. As Mo Qian's voice fell, the black man said a few good words, but he didn't mean to retreat at all, but turned into a shadow again and kept approaching Mo Qian and the others.
"Be careful! this person is weird!" Mo Gan reminded loudly, and suddenly retreated behind everyone, and at the same time, the first person to come into contact with the shadow of the worship had collapsed to the ground, and there was not a single wound visible on his body, but blood was flowing from the man's mouth, exactly like the death of the young man's companion.
Seeing this, Ba Fenghan had already retreated to Cheng Xue's side and urged: "Hurry up, no matter who lives or dies, it is a threat to us!"
Cheng Xue saw Ba Fenghan crawling towards the depths of the cave, and couldn't help but remind: "If there is a dead end ahead, wouldn't it be impossible to get out?"
Ba Fenghan said: "The cave is windy, there must be more than this one exit, follow me closely!"
After crawling through the cave for half a cup of tea, the two found a way out in front of an overgrown dirt bag.
When the two of them crawled out of the cave, they could vaguely hear panicked screams in the distance.
When encountering such a hard stubble, I am afraid it will be enough for them to drink a pot.
Ba Fenghan continued to flee with Cheng Xue while secretly thinking, and suddenly there were several beast roars from the direction where Mo Qian and the others were fighting.
There are demonic beasts gathering there with bloody qi.
At this time, the backlash suffered by Ba Fenghan had stopped, but he still couldn't use his spiritual power, and in order to avoid encountering the demonic beast head-on, the two of them mostly walked through the bushes.
During this time, they encountered a second-order demonic beast, but fortunately they were far away and did not find them. The two of them crawled on the ground and did not continue on their way until the monster left.
After a long time, the black earth was gradually replaced by rocks, and then a large tall bamboo forest came into view.
The two of them shuttled through the bamboo forest, and there was no end in sight.
After climbing over a rocky mountain, a small crystal clear stone pool appeared in front of them, and schools of fish swam in the water.
In another thatched hut adjacent to the stone pool, a man in a snow-white robe with a book in one hand and a book in the other, lying barefoot on the boulder in front of the house, staring at the contents of the book.
Even in the face of the two of them who suddenly broke in, they only glanced up slightly lazily, and then moved their eyes to the scroll in their hands again.
PS: This is the end of the first volume of the blood pact, and the second volume of the Dark Brotherhood is looking forward to it! Chapter 16 has a one-sentence change, which has no impact on the plot, so there is no need to read it repeatedly. Wishing you all good health and happy reading!
