97.Kill the Claw (4)
Shi Yuanji was smashed into the ground by the stone man, as if embedded in the ground. When he heard the stone man's words, he knew that he regarded human life like a mustard, and his anger soared in his heart. He exerted all his strength, stepping on the ground to support the stone man's giant hand, and he began to wrestle with the stone man's fist.
"How can mortals have such strength?" Shi Ren was surprised and puzzled, and with the force in his hand, Shi Yuanji was pressed to the ground fiercely.
"Ah!!h
The sudden force caused the stone man's arm to lose control and fly backwards, and even the stone man was unsteady on his feet, staggering backwards.
In Jing Muxuan's eyes, a funny scene appeared: a stone man as tall as a hill actually competed with a mortal, and was pushed by this mortal. The retreat in his heart gradually stopped, and the steel knife in his hand waved again, and several wind blades appeared, slashing at the stone man's one-eye.
Shi Qiqi was in a hurry, and with a wave of his hand, he fanned out the wind blade of Jing Muxuan, stood still, and once again shot a hot red light in his single eye. Jing Mu protected himself with a knife, and retreated while fighting. Shi Yuanji didn't say a word, and rushed straight forward.
"This stone man is too aggressive, and the fight is so fierce, he can't get the secret of the claw, and he must be destroyed directly!"
Shi Yuanji made up his mind, stepped on the feather cone and flew in the air, and drew several dragon patterns in the air on his hand. For a moment, lightning flashed and thundered, and the thunder rolled around Shi Yuanji and flew towards Shi Ren's single eye.
The lightning was like an arrow of thunder and lightning, and it pierced through the stone man's one-eye. The aftermath of the thunder and lightning dispersed, obscuring the sunlight wherever the lightning went, and even the red glow emitted by the stone figures gradually disappeared.
The stone man screamed, covered his eyes and staggered a few steps, falling heavily to the ground, unable to move again.
For a while, the thunder and lightning that Yu Wei was still there and the dust raised by the stone man when he fell to the ground were mixed together to cover his vision, and Shi Yuanji learned a lesson and did not step forward to check it for the first time.
On the contrary, Jing Muqian was a little anxious, and stepped forward to observe carefully, confirming that the stone man was dead, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Shi Yuanji stepped on the feather cone and slowly fell to the stone man's one-eyed place, seeing that the dragon pattern that supported the flow of one-eyed mana had already been destroyed by him with thunder and lightning, he couldn't help but sigh.
"I didn't expect you to be so strong. Jing Mu used his hands and feet together and climbed onto the face of the stone man. "A young man like you, with such strength, must have a good master. ”
Shi Yuanji didn't want to listen to his overly obvious sycophancy, and asked with a cold face: "You haven't considered studying the laws of the Divine Claw before, since you have been ordered to destroy the Divine Claw by Xi Stone, the number of Divine Claws you come into contact with must be innumerable, how can you not have this kind of thought?"
Faced with Shi Yuanji's aggressive questioning, Jing Mujian's face became ugly. He sheathed his knife in a hurry, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
"It seems that you must have thought like this, and even acted on it, did you fail? What do you mean by that expression? What the hell are you hesitating about?"
Shi Yuanji fell on Shi Ren's face, slowly walked in front of Jing Mu Qian, and looked at Jing Mu Qian solemnly.
Jing Mu Qian smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "I won't hide it from you, we did make this kind of attempt before, but it angered Xi Fangshi. Because of this, the four brothers were cursed by the Xiqi Stone and died tragically and inexplicably. ”
Speaking of which, Inoki's face became sad because of the memory. "You have also seen that Your Majesty has angered Xi Zhai Stone and has become like this. At that time, when you first met, he was still a lively teenager, but now, he has become a sick man who never walks without a cane. ”
"Can you face the wrath of God? That's the messenger of the fireflies! Your Majesty, as the Apocalypse, can't be exempt from this calamity, so what can we do?"
Shi Yuanji was speechless by Jing Muqian's words, Jing Muqian's helplessness seemed to infect him, and he began to sigh.
"If I find the law of the Divine Claw this time, I'm afraid it's not just the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate and the Twenty-Eight Constellations who will suffer, right? I'm afraid that the people involved with it will also suffer, and there will be more and more things like Liu Fenghua. ”
Shi Yuanji was silent for a long time, and finally calmed down. "Any other tasks?"
"Yes, come with me. ”
Under the head of the stone man, the old horse had already driven another horse to arrive, and the two got on the horse and hurried to the next place in a heavy atmosphere.
"This claw is an old man, he has passed the age of sixties, I went to inquire once, and it is not difficult to deal with, just sneak attack. ”
"An old man?" Shi Yuanji was even more confused. "Is there anything special about this old man?"
Jing Mu thought for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know either. This old man had fought in the Burning Plains before, and then he went home to farm. But his family died young, and now he is the only one in their family. ”
Hearing this, Shi Yuanji had an idea in his heart: "Can you let me talk to me first, and then do it." Don't worry, when it's time to tear your face, I won't show mercy. ”
Jing Mu Qian nodded, and he agreed.
"The next step is to go to a small village with only a few families, and we will be there in half an hour. ”
Jing Mu urged the horses under his crotch to hurry away, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he actually walked out of the territory of Phong Ho, and was about to reach Hanoi.
The two did not take the official road, circled on the path on the mountain, and after crossing three mountains, they finally saw people. The two turned over and dismounted, hid in the shade of a tree, and looked into the crowded area.
In the depression surrounded by mountains, a few mud-thatched houses stand sparsely, forming a small village. A few villagers with their hands hoes and struggling to clear the land in early spring.
Although the place is surrounded by mountains, there is still a small river that flows out of the depression in a twist and turn. In the depression, there is plenty of water, but the land is somewhat barren, but it is full of weeds.
On the mountains to the southwest, there are dense burial mounds, and the number is difficult to see at a glance. The soil on the grave is still very new, and there are several piles of burnt ashes in front of the grave, which seems to be a newly erected grave.
"It's the old man. Jing Mu pointed to the eldest of the villagers, who was very cautious, as if he was afraid of being discovered by the other party. "I've watched from afar before, and he's alert, but he didn't do anything, I don't know why?"
"Didn't he make a move?" Shi Yuanji looked intently, just in time to see the old man looking back at him.
Jing Mu Qian was shocked, and his tone was full of panic: "He saw us! This is not the kind of guy who doesn't have a long brain like that one-eyed stone man, I'm afraid there will be a big battle in a while." ”
Shi Yuanji felt the kindness of the old man, looked at the old man for a long time, and said faintly: "No, I don't feel the murderous aura, let me go and talk to him, maybe there will be a turnaround." ”
With that, he ignored Jing Muxuan's obstruction and walked straight to the old man who was working in the field.
Of course, he was not unguarded, and his right hand never left the newly bought leather goods.
I have to say that this leather goods boss is really real, and the leather goods made are very strong. The arrow robe on Shi Yuanji's body was ravaged by the one-eyed stone man, and several openings were torn, but the leather goods tied around his waist were intact.
Shi Yuanji's peculiar behavior naturally attracted the attention of the villagers, and they all put down their work, or doubted, anxious, or disgusted, and even stared at Shi Yuanji with resentment.
"I don't know them, why do they have such expressions on their faces?"
The old man also put down the hoe in his hand, and said to Shi Yuanji with a smile: "I finally waited for you, your colleague used to always hide in the shadows, I wanted to talk to him, but I couldn't." ”
"Uh......" The embarrassing atmosphere gradually spread, and both Shi Yuanji in the light and Jing Mu in the dark felt a little embarrassed.
"Old man, I don't want anything more than you to reveal the core dragon pattern of the claw. As long as you give it to me, I will not embarrass you. ”
In the face of Shi Yuanji's sincere request, the old man was kind and pleasant, and was about to answer, but the villagers glared angrily one by one and spoke out against it.
"The people in the government are not good things!"
"Get out of the village, get out of the village!"
"It's a big deal. ”
The villagers were furious, and the farm tools in their hands instantly turned upside down and became a weapon to beat people. Shi Yuanji didn't understand why they were so angry. But when he thought of Jing Mu Qian hiding in the shadows and never appearing, he felt that he was being used as a gunman.
In the small village, the hoes in the hands of the villagers were raised one after another, and they slowly walked towards Shi Yuanji with angry expressions. The old man finally spoke, and a sigh stopped the villagers' behavior.
"Put it all down, let's finally settle down here, don't toss anymore. ”
