Chapter 16: The Shadow
Yang Chen and Mu Gang were woken up in the middle of the night to take turns keeping vigil.
Both of them were a little drowsy, and they were woken up when they were asleep, and their eyelids couldn't be opened.
"Yawn!! so sleepy!"
The two of them sat next to each other, sleeping a little unsatisfied.
But after a short while, the two of them recovered their spirits and walked to the position on duty one after the other.
"Little brother Li Yang, I see that you are not very old, but your cultivation is not low. During the vigil, Mu Gang turned his head to look at Yang Chen and said, "Usually you need to consume a lot of cultivation resources."
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to reach the late-stage cultivation of Qi Condensation at this age. Yang Chen replied with a smile.
Generally, when you join an expedition team and go on an expedition, everyone doesn't care about each other's identity or cultivation.
But Mu Gang's words carried some temptation, which Yang Chen could hear.
However, Yang Chen knew that this Mu Gang was not malicious, maybe he was just curious.
"Then it seems that the little brother Li Yang is a son of a noble family. Mu Gang said with some envy.
Deputy Captain Mu laughed. Yang Chen sighed and said, "I'm just an ordinary person, the reason why I can have such cultivation at this age is because I have a good big brother." ”
"My eldest brother is working in those clans, and he can get a lot of cultivation resources every month, and my eldest brother usually loves me more, so he gave me all the cultivation resources he gets, and I came out on an expedition this time, I also want to experience and train myself, and I will be able to help my eldest brother in the future." ”
What a big brother, that, of course, is fictional.
After all, if a lie is told, more lies need to be made up.
"I see, it seems that your brothers have a good relationship. Mu Gang nodded and said, when he recruited Yang Chen before, he thought that he should not be an ordinary person, but now it seems that it is understandable.
Indeed, if you work within the clan, you will be able to get a lot of cultivation resources every month.
But the people who work in the family are equivalent to signing a deed of sale, and basically have to do things for that family for the rest of their lives.
People like Mu Gang who are more freedom-loving will not be confined to one place in order to improve their cultivation.
Soon, the two of them were halfway through their vigil.
Nothing happened during the period, and the two also talked happily, Mu Gang told Yang Chen a lot about the adventure of the Xishan Mountain Range, and Yang Chen also benefited a lot from it.
In less than an hour, the night will end and the day will rise.
"I didn't expect this expedition to be so exquisite, it seems that I still have a lot to learn."
In the conversation with Mu Gang, Yang Chen knew very well that even if he had a certain understanding before, in front of experienced people, he still had to maintain a sensitive and studious heart.
"No, you ..... be careful behind. ”
Just when Mu Gang was a little complacent, he suddenly saw a black shadow appear behind Yang Chen.
He immediately shouted in surprise, and at the same time he stepped forward, and his hand quickly stopped at the dark shadow.
And Yang Chen was also shocked when he heard Mu Gang's words "be careful behind", and immediately realized the danger.
Since it is a sneak attack from behind, if you rush forward quickly, you will be able to dodge it with a certain probability.
Yang Chen's mind spun quickly, and at the moment when Mu Gang shouted to be careful, Yang Chen had already reacted, and rushed forward in an instant, instinctively dodging the sneak attack from behind.
But the next moment, the shadow that sneaked up from behind Yang Chen suddenly disappeared.
When Mu just stopped him. Straight into the air.
"What's going on. After slamming into the air, Mu Gang suddenly had some doubts, so he could alert the surroundings, and obviously saw a black shadow appear behind Yang Chen, why did he disappear as soon as he rushed over.
"Little brother Li Yang, are you okay? After finding nothing else, Mu Gang turned to look at Yang Chen and said.
"I'm fine. Yang Chen said, "Did any demon beasts appear just now?"
It really scared Yang Chen just now, but he quickly eased up.
"I don't know, a dark shadow just appeared behind you, I can't see what it is. Mu Gang said: "I'm on alert, you hurry up and wake everyone up." ”
Yang Chen glanced at Mu Gang, only to see that his expression was calm, but there was a hint of sharpness in his eyes as he looked around.
"Mu Gang, what's going on. Han Ming had already been woken up when Mu Gang was shouting to be careful, and before Yang Chen could scream, he had already come out.
"This Han Ming and Mu Gang are worthy of being experienced veterans, and they immediately detect danger as soon as they are in danger."
Afterwards, Yang Chen walked to various tents to call people.
Mu Gang also told Han Ming what happened just now.
"It could be a Shadow Demon Fox or a Shadow Cat Demon" After listening to Mu Gang's words, Han Ming thought for a moment and said.
"Aren't we in danger then?" exclaimed Mu Gang.
Han Ming took his hand and said, "Not necessarily, whether it is a shadow cat demon or a shadow demon fox, they are all good at disguising themselves as shadows to sneak attack and hunt prey, but as long as there is no success in the first sneak attack, the second sneak attack will generally not be carried out, unless the hunted target is alone, or the strength of the individual action is relatively weak." What's more, there are so many of us here, and their cultivation is not weak, and if they dare to appear, they will be looking for death, so they should not appear again."
This Shadow Cat Demon and Shadow Demon Fox are both killers hidden in the night, and they are extremely cunning and sinister, some people don't pay attention, even if they are strong, they are easy to be hunted by sneak attacks.
But these two kinds of demon beasts like to be alone, and the objects they hunt are basically lonely or alone, rarely like Yang Chen and Mu Gang.
At this point, everyone was woken up and gathered.
Han Ming also talked about what had just happened.
All the people who were sleeping were glad that they didn't sneak up on themselves in their sleep.
"Okay, now it's less than an hour before dawn, don't go back to sleep, even if the possibility of this demon beast coming back is relatively small, but everyone must cheer up and prevent possible accidents. Han Ming said.
"Mu Gang is honest and honest, this Han Ming has a degree of command and is responsible for people. Yang Chen sighed in his heart, there are not many people like this in Dingshan City.
Just as Yang Chen sighed, he suddenly heard a bang, and a tree immediately collapsed.
Everyone was shocked and looked at the fallen tree.
I saw Han Ming standing there at this time, with one hand on the beginning of the broken knots of the tree.
"Captain, what's the matter?"
...
"Attention, everyone, the dark shadow has reappeared." Han Ming withdrew his hand and turned his head to say.
"What!".
A burst of exclamation~~
The sound just now turned out to be Han Ming's sudden attack on the black shadow, but he pounced.
As a result, all the originally calm hearts instantly tightened, and everyone began to be vigilant around, worried about whether they would be killed suddenly.
The sudden attack of a mid-stage Black Blade Battle Spirit Master was all in the air, so if it were to sneak attack them, wouldn't it be easy.
