Chapter Seventy-Four: Evil Intentions Take People's Lives, Anger Kills People's Souls

Su Yue, Dian Yin, Zhao Huang and others resigned to Zou Hu, and no one knew what would happen to him in the future. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Dianyin even felt that if Zou Hu really died because of them, then this good country was really hopeless.

He whispered, "Why don't you really come with us, at least for now." ”

Zou Hu shook his head and said, "Zou's roots are here, and he won't go anywhere." Dian Yin felt that he was not worth it, but he didn't know how to persuade him, and he knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

At the end, the group walked to the depths of the tunnel, leaving only Zou Hu's lonely back to watch.

Baisheng came down from the castle tower. Looking at Su Yue and Dian Yin, the group was gradually moving away in the dark tunnel. He walked up to Zou Hu, showed a face that tried his best to suppress his anger, and said, "You can release my senior brother now, right?"

"They haven't ...... yet," he said, when he got caught in the vines and staggered to the ground. Baisheng held a steel knife against his neck in his hand, stepped on his chest with one foot, and said viciously:

"I have a gun bucket for you now, you can also let my senior brother go believe it or not!" As soon as he finished speaking, the guards around Zou Hu rushed over, and they were all thrown away one by one.

The sergeants behind him were ready to move when they saw their generals and brothers being bullied like this. Wu Tu was afraid that the sergeant would mutiny, and shouted for Baisheng not to mess around, but because his hands were tied, he couldn't stop it.

Baisheng was stepping on his long hair when he held the gun at him. As soon as Zou Hu's head was crooked, he was pulled by his own hair. Baisheng felt that he might be too reckless, and hurriedly moved his feet.

Zou Hu also got up from the ground, his hair covered with dust, making him look like an old man. From the perspective of a hundred lives, he is both pitiful and wretched. But Zou Hu didn't seem to feel anything, but looked more humble, and he said slowly: "General Baisheng is right, Zou Hu I is a human being, and he should keep his promises." So he untied him himself.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Wutu's hands broke free, he used Qi Shu to grow a tree root from the ground, covered Zou Hu against the wall and couldn't move, and then pulled Baisheng to chase him deep into the tunnel. After running out for a few meters, a row of tree walls grew behind him to block Zou Hu and his sergeants.

Bai Sheng said as he ran: "You just reminded me that I reacted, this is Zou Hu's military camp!

"I'm freeing my hands, I don't care if he mutinies or not, the things that the commander handed over to us are the most important!" Wu Tu said and paused, "It's really hard to clean up, just transfer troops from elsewhere to deal with it." ”

Under Su Yue's constant urging, the six of them walked quickly in the tunnel. Liao Tingyun and Zhao Huang are in the front, Dian Yin and Tong Xi are in the middle, and Su Yue and Wu Dao are behind.

"Rustling, ......" is not a person walking, but like the sound of a long whip dragging on the ground, subtle and compact. Su Yue and Wu Daoyou were the first to feel it, but before they could tell them, countless shrubs and rattans suddenly grew under their feet. The shrubs are so dense that you can't get your feet off. The rattan is under the bush again, and the hand can't reach into it densely, as if it is stuck in the quagmire, how to lift the foot, and how to pull it out?

The footsteps approached, and everyone knew that it was the vultures who had caught up.

Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, the vulture was in front of him. Baisheng was behind him, with his back to him, to prevent Zou Hu from chasing them.

The vultures could have grown wooden thorns directly on the ground. But he has suffered a lot from them in the past two days, and he feels that Qi art is infinitely changing and has great potential, so as long as he thinks carefully and concentrates on dealing with them, he will definitely be able to trick them well.

Wu Tu smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry, you have tied me up for so long, and you haven't returned the salute!" As he spoke, he made a gesture with both hands, and a dozen sharpened bamboo spears flew from nowhere, stabbing straight at them. Su Yue, who was the closest, raised his knife and fell, and the bamboo spears fell to the ground one by one. Wu Daoyou had already opened the box of seven techniques on Su Yue's back, and seven knives came out of the box. Wu Daoyou took out one, put the knife flat, and inserted it diagonally at Su Yue's feet, only to hear the sound of the bush being broken, and then he pressed the handle of the knife down, and Su Yue was ejected.

Zhao Huang's eyes lit up, because Tong Xi and Liao Tingyun were closest to him, he learned from his master to rescue Liao Tingyun first, and then rescued Tong Xi. The inside saves the outside, the outside saves the inside, and in the blink of an eye, everyone comes out.

Several of them are masters, quick thinkers, and quick reactions. After all, the vultures are not as fast as them, and they can't stand them. As soon as Su Yue was ejected, he took out a knife from the wooden box and threw it straight at Wutu. With this evasion, almost all the rattan bushes escaped. Most of these people are experienced veterans in the rivers and lakes, and after playing these few games, they have almost figured out the vulture's style of play, and everyone has made it clear before, so the cooperation is more tacit than before. They alternated and attacked, and they were still flickering and far apart. The vultures didn't know who to attack for a while. When he was stunned, he was driven up by Dianyin and slashed to the ground.

Seeing this, Baisheng had already panicked. Su Yue was afraid that he would secretly use some rattan, so he took out two knives from the Seven Techniques Box and threw them at him with all his might, the speed was so fast that of course it was not something that Baisheng could dodge or resist.

"Knock, knock!" there were two noises on the mud wall of the tunnel, and Baisheng was gone.

Pulling out the knife from Baisheng's body and the mud wall, Su Yue and the others ran faster in the tunnel.

In the morgue of the Good Man Guo Uncle's Mansion, the corpses of Vulture and Baisheng are parked. Uncle Guo watched in the study as the Wutu and Baisheng's subordinates wrote the battle report on the pursuit of Zhao Huang. This is the method passed down by the dart guard battalion of the eight counties.

Uncle Guo flipped through the war report, and saw that Wutu and Baisheng were going to kill Su Yue and others again and again, he didn't move, and when he saw that Zou Hu dared to disobey his order and insisted on carrying out the order of the lord, he actually moved in his heart, and immediately wrote an order, stamped the handsome seal, and asked Zou Hu to come to the capital to be the commander, responsible for the Gyeonggi guard, and wrote that he should receive the order and leave immediately. Uncle Guo had just sent people away, and he saw several war reports saying that the soldiers of the Western Boundary Pass were as majestic as a mountain, and they did not obey Zou Hu's order, and he regretted it very much. Immediately, he sent a master to assassinate Zou Hu on his way to the capital to report on his work.

Two days later, Zou Hu and his horse died in the woods not far from where they had been encamped a few days earlier. At this time, Su Yue and the others had already left the country of good people.

Zhao Huang was missing from the group, because as soon as he got out of the tunnel, he went to Wanjing, Dejun to resume his life.

After everyone's baggage was searched in prison, only a few books were left when they were returned, and the silver and silver were all taken away. Wu Daoyou is a person who doesn't care about money, and he doesn't have much money. Therefore, even if there is a tavern inn, they don't have the money to go in and rest, not to mention that there is a mountain forest north of the national line of the Good People. This was originally a bandit's den, but now it is also deserted, according to Zhao Huang's previous statement, after they left the tunnel, they turned around and headed south, but it was still pine and fir thatching all over the mountains, and there was no road in sight. I walked south for a few days and didn't see anyone, if it weren't for the two books given by Princess Dongting and many years of experience in walking the green forest, everyone would have been lost. By the end of the afternoon, the water had been exhausted, and there was no water source to be found in the vast mountain forest. Everyone was dry-mouthed, so Su Yue arranged for Liao Tingyun to stay with Tong Xi, and Wu Daoyou and Dianyin's master and apprentice went separately to find water.

Not long after walking with his back, Su Yue shouted to everyone from afar.

When everyone came to the road that Su Yue walked to find water, he had already turned diagonally from that road into a mountain bay. Everyone was curious, because there was a white, round "cake" there, like a full moon, and like a big moon cake. You can smell a faint fruity aroma from afar, and the closer you go, the stronger the fragrance becomes. When he walked into the bay and found Su Yue, he found that it was actually a big tree, and the "full moon" seemed to be his fruit. This tree is strange, without branches, leaves, or flowers, and it is bare only with a large, round and full trunk. The brown bark is interspersed with lightning-like blood-red silks.

Tong Xi almost trotted all the way after smelling this fruity fragrance, and after everyone stopped, she still stared at the round table-sized "full moon" and rushed forward. Dian Yin wanted to pull her, but she didn't pull it, so she stretched out her foot and hooked forward, and Tong Xi unconsciously ate this trip and fell into the mud.

She turned around and saw that everyone was smiling at her, and her heart was angry, all on the same face. Dian Yin said: "Don't rush to rush, carefully find its way." ”

Tong Xi said angrily: "What's the way is this? It's just a big peach that is flattened! What kind of green forest heroes are you, you have to grab wild fruits from a little girl!" After speaking, he stood up and was about to leave, Su Yue stepped forward and grabbed her. Picked up a stone from the ground, and said to Tong Xi: "Don't worry, girl, look!" As he spoke, he smashed the stone hard under the root of the tree, only to see the clod of soil sinking, rumbling loudly, and suddenly sinking into a deep pit under the root. And all the people were terrified, and they all came nearer to look. I saw that there was no bottom under the pit, and I saw countless dark red roots.

Dian Yin looked at Su Yue and asked his master gently, "What kind of tree is this?"

Wu Daoyou and Su Yue glanced at each other and said with a smile: "This tree is called the man-eating tree, also known as the snake and scorpion fruit, and it likes to grow in sunny and water-deficient mountains. There is only one stem in the ground, and when it matures, it grows a fruit, but it is deeply rooted in the ground. Not only does the tree have a wide range of roots, but it also has webbed ends that absorb water and push back the dry soil as it ages, so it is common to have traps around the tree. Whether it is a man or a beast, in this water-scarce mountainous area, it is very easy to be attracted by the fruity aroma of the snake and scorpion fruit, and if a man or beast does not understand the situation, he will fall into the trap. Look at this pit, it is not more than a foot wide, but it is bottomless. If you fall from such a high place, you will not die or be crippled! When you die, you will be his nourishment. ”

Dianyin thought deeply and thought for a while, "What if it's a bird?"

Wu Daoyou continued: "Some deer and lambs may be relatively light, and if the root system in the ground is a little farther away from the ground, the thickening of the soil layer can save their lives. Birds also have wings. To deal with them, the femme fatale still has a way, which is why he is called the femme fatale. You see that the fruit is big and round, white as jade, and full of fragrance. However, there are three 'snake teeth and scorpion thorns' on the fruit, and you can't see it if you don't look carefully. In a short period of time, if you touch the "snake teeth" twice, the big fruit will immediately close and cover the prey alive. ”

Tong Xi was secretly glad when he heard this, and he also woke up to the fact that Fang Cai was indeed reckless. She wanted to be like no one, but she couldn't pull her face.

Dian Yin said: "Then what should I do? Seeing that the fruit can't eat in my mouth and dies of thirst?"

Su Yue said: "Brother, you play the best dart." You knock out those thorns with stones. Dian Yin understood what he meant, picked up a few stones, and knocked out a thorn impartially, and when he wanted to do it again, Su Yue hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Wait for a while." Now hit it, and it will roll up the flesh and it will take days to unfold. Nobel nodded in realization.

After a cup of tea, Dianyin finally used a stone to knock out all three thorns on the flesh. Su Yue carefully cut a few pieces of pulp with a knife for everyone to eat. In front of Tong Xi, she glanced at it first, and Su Yue saw her staring carefully, so he persuaded her to take it quickly. But she turned her head away, but said that she was not thirsty. I persuaded him a few times but didn't eat it. Everyone knew his little temper, so they didn't say anything more, just wrapped the rest, and when her little temper passed, she asked for it.

After resting for a while, the people were to set out. Tong Xi said: "You go first, I want to pay tribute." ”

Dian Yin said angrily: "I've rested for so long, why did you get rid of your hands after you left?" Su Yue pestle him and motioned him not to speak. Tong Xi ignored her, and Su Yue persuaded: "It's okay, it won't be long, let's go slowly, and wait for her to catch up." ”

Everyone picked up and left. Tong Xi began to look east and west, as if looking for a hidden place, and saw that they had gone far away, and then hurriedly walked towards the tree. Fortunately, the deep pit under the root was not wide, and she could cross it with one foot. It's just that as soon as she stepped in, she just happened to run into a "snake tooth" that was beaten by Dianyin and was only a short section. She felt that Dian Yin had already pulled out her "teeth", so she would not be rolled up like Su Yue said. So I didn't care, cut out a piece and gobbled it up in my hand. The fruit is really delicious, fragrant like a peach, tastes like a pear, has plenty of moisture, and is full of juice. Unexpectedly, she was too close to the root of the tree, she didn't stand firmly, afraid of the pit, so she pushed her hands on the fruit, and in her panic, she just touched the second stump. Before the "ah" voice was shouted, it was rolled up by the snake and scorpion fruit and wrapped in zongzi layer by layer. She hissed and shouted with all her might. It's a pity that the flesh is thick and tightly rolled, and only the buzzing sound outside is like a mosquito from five feet away.

Su Yue and the others knew that Tong Xi said that Gong was just an excuse, and when they ate the snake and scorpion fruit again, the word "gluttony" was written all over her face, and she was waiting for her in a place where she couldn't see. The left couldn't wait, the right couldn't wait, Su Yue asked Liao Tingyun to take a look. Liao Tingyun walked into the mountain bay and didn't find Tong Xi, but from a distance, she saw the snake and scorpion fruit rolled together like a bed bedding, and she felt bad. She mobilized her internal strength, stepped on the grass and branches, and ran wildly towards the tree. The trembling sound of the branches and leaves swaying alarmed Su Yue and Dian Yin. They ran into the mountain bay and saw Liao Tingyun turned into a flying shadow, and the snake and scorpion fruit in the distance were bulging, so they understood the general situation, and they all ran forward. Wu Daoyou was the last to follow, and he saw Liao Tingyun's horizontal sword about to cut off the tree, and shouted urgently in the wild run: "Don't cut it, wait for me to come." As soon as he had finished speaking, he also went to the tree and stopped in front of it.

Dian Yin hurriedly said: "Master, it is important to save people. Cut it off!"

Liao Tingyun raised his sword and pointed at Wu Daoyou and said, "The dead old man will open the old lady!"

Wu Daoyou snorted coldly, shook his hand, hooked his left foot diagonally, and kicked the sword in her hand! and said loudly: "She won't be able to die for a while, but if you break the fat handle this time, and the milk in the handle is poured into the snake and scorpion fruit, she will be suffocated to death in two blows!"

"How's that good?" said Norikure. Wu Daoyou didn't answer, took the knife in his hand and walked like the fruit.
