Chapter 247: Back to the City 3
Under the bright moonlight, the fire refining on the empty desert ran wildly, although she was very tired now, and her feet were numb and she couldn't wait to stop and rest. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 But she didn't dare to stop, and she didn't care about letting her sweat-soaked long hair stick to her face, because not far behind her, there were three Liao people with sharp weapons chasing her.
"I just got over the sand dunes in front of me, and I was there right away. Looking at the road in front of her with a bit of confusion, Huo Lian kept cheering for herself in her heart, she didn't dare to speak, because her throat was dry as if it was going to smoke, and she was afraid that as soon as she spoke, she would no longer be able to resist the urge to drink water.
It's just that there are so many sand dunes in front of her for some reason, jumping one after another, if it weren't for the strong will to survive that dominates the pace of fire refining, she would have been unable to support it at this moment.
Suddenly, Huo Lian's foot didn't know what it touched, and it suddenly stumbled, and the whole person fell to the ground suddenly. She wanted to get up, but once the breath in her heart relaxed, there was still half a point of strength in her body. And the three Liao people behind her saw her fall, they were immediately overjoyed, and their steps sped up a few points, and then the three scimitars slashed down towards the head of the fire refining in no particular order.
Just as Huo Lian closed her eyes in despair and killed, a dazzling sword light flashed in the eyes of the three Liao people, and then Huo Lian only heard a "bell" explosion, and before she could open her eyes, the cold blade had already slid past her neck.
Then a sound of gold and iron came into the ears of Huo Lian, and when she opened her eyes, there was a young man in a green shirt, holding a sword, and a graceful demeanor in front of her, and those Liao people who chased her had fallen to the ground and returned to the underworld.
"Feng Ming?" Huo Lian looked at the person in front of him, with three points of surprise and three points of surprise and four points of uncertainty in his eyes, and called softly.
"Fire Refinement, you're okay. Feng Mingchao smiled indifferently, and then said with a concerned expression.
"You guy, since you saw me being hunted down, couldn't you have shot earlier, if it's a moment later, you just wait for Qingming to go to my grave and burn paper. Huo Lian pursed his lips, and under the thin willow eyebrows, a pair of big round eyes looked at the person in front of him with a serious look of dissatisfaction, and said unhappily.
"Ah, Huo Lian, you really wronged me with this. I didn't know that you were being chased and killed, in fact, I also hit you by mistake, in fact, I was running for my life just like you. Feng Ming explained with a somewhat embarrassed expression, and the corners of his mouth grinned, revealing a wry smile.
"What, you didn't come to me specifically, but just happened to run into me?" Huo Lian said, and the dissatisfaction on his face was even stronger.
"yes, I... ”
Without waiting for Feng Ming to explain, Huo Lian had directly interrupted his words, and said angrily, "Okay, you Feng Ming, has your skin itched again recently, come, let the old lady... ”
Before Huo Lian's words were finished, Feng Ming was suddenly unstable and about to fall, but fortunately, he hurriedly supported his body with his sword on the ground, but the whole person was still curled up in pain.
"Ah, what's wrong with you, are you injured, how are you injured, does it matter?" Seeing this scene, where could Huo Lian still care about complaining about the other party, and suddenly stepped forward to support Feng Ming with a concerned face, his slightly pale face was full of nervousness.
"It's okay, it's just that I used that trick to get out of my strength, let's get out of here first, it's not good to stay here for a long time. Feng Ming's face was pale, and beads of sweat were dripping down, but he still smiled indifferently.
"What, you just now, hey, I'm so stupid, I don't know what strength those people have, why don't they... ”
Huo Lian looked guilty and couldn't help but blame herself, but before she could finish speaking, a hand had gently covered her lips, and then Feng Ming said gently, "I can still hold it." ”
"Hmm. Huo Lian's face blushed, because of Feng Ming's action, she knew that she didn't have to say anything.
Oasis in the middle of the lake, Yuelai Inn
After the ghost fox died, Yelu Xiong immediately searched his body carefully, but found nothing, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, "Could it be that he had already expected this attack, impossible, even if he had a guess, he didn't know the specific time of action, how could he transfer all the information at once?"
Looking around the room, suddenly an ordinary porcelain basin attracted Yeluxiong's attention, and when he took a few steps closer, he found that there were some burnt ashes left in the basin.
Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but look back at the corpse of the ghost fox, his eyes showed a complicated color, and he sighed and said, "It seems that you have already saved the heart of death, and you destroyed all the information early, but do you think I won't get that list in this way?"
At this time, the doubts in his heart have been answered, the ghost fox really didn't have time to transfer the information, but he destroyed the information one step ahead of him, plus he himself is dead, it can be said that although this operation destroyed the secret stronghold of the Great Song Dynasty outside the border in one fell swoop, it was not fully done, and the list of the warrior battalion personnel he wanted still did not arrive after all.
The action did not have the desired effect, but there was not the slightest joy or anger on Yeluxiong's face, and he left the room and walked downstairs unhurriedly.
The battle downstairs has long been over, but Zhao Degui, who is a martial artist, was besieged by four black-clothed men who also cultivated, and the outcome is self-evident, although he died with a pair of eyes wide open and very unwilling, but in this world, simple eyes can never kill.
"Pack up this place, let's retreat. Casually glancing at the mess all over the ground, Yeluxiong commanded lightly, and then left the inn without looking back.
Not long after, a fire burned in the Yuelai Inn, and the light of the fire was so dazzling in this silent night, that even Lei Shi and others, who were dozens of miles away, could clearly see the light here.
It's a pity that the dazzling fire of the oasis, in the eyes of Lei Shi and Xu Shilin, is not the slightest bit dazzling and magnificent, it is like a boundless black hole, inhaling the only remaining hope of Lei Shi and Xu Shilin deeply, crushing it, trampling it, and blowing it away without a trace.
The night was deep, and it was time to fall asleep and be sound, although Lei Shi was guarding Tie Xuan at this time and had no intention of sleeping, but when he saw this scene, he still shivered violently, and his temples jumped suddenly.
Seeing this scene, Xu Shilin, who was sulking, had long forgotten the-for-tat confrontation with Lei Shi just now, and slowly approached Lei Shi with heavy steps, and said with a little trembling in his voice, "Brother Lei, is this... ”
There was no beginning or tail in what he said, and even Xu Shilin stopped without finishing it, but he believed that Lei Shi definitely understood what he was talking about.
It's just that Xu Shilin, who was looking at Lei Shi expectantly, was speechless for a long time, and the whole person stood in place dumbfounded, with various emotions flashing in his eyes, sadness, helplessness, bitterness, hatred, and so on.
I don't know how long it took, but when Xu Shilin secretly decided to leave here alone, Lei Shihu let out a long sigh, and said with endless sadness in his words, "It seems that the ghost fox staying at the inn is estimated to be more than lucky." ”
"Nonsense. Hearing this, Xu Shilin glanced at the thunder stone that seemed to be crumbling with disdain, secretly disdainful, and took a step to leave.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from his ear, which also contained a sense of helplessness, "Yes, this time the Liao people really caught us off guard." ”
The familiar voice came into his ears, Lei Shi looked for prestige, and immediately said with a happy face, "Fire Lian, Feng Ming, it's really good that you're okay." Without waiting for the other party to speak, his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "But how did you get together, and what about the other people who are on the mission with you?"
Hearing this, Feng Ming and Huo Lian glanced at each other, and then they both lowered their heads helplessly.
Seeing the two of them squirming and wanting to say something, but they didn't know how to say it, Lei Shi didn't understand what the two didn't say in his heart, so he couldn't help but sigh again, and then said, "The deceased is gone, the living must live well, both of you seem to be injured, now hurry up and recover, and when the morning dawns, we will go back to the city." ”
"We both have injuries that can be sustained, so for the sake of safety, I think it's better to go now. We also met a group of Liao people on the way here, fortunately they were in a hurry, Feng Ming and I buried ourselves in the sand to escape, if they suddenly turned around, it would be bad. Huo Lian proposed, although his aura was a little disturbed due to the non-stop hurry, but his eyes were exceptionally bright and firm.
"Yes, Brother Lei, we can't give up the chance to live here for the sake of a half-dead Tie Xuan. Hearing Huo Lian's words, Xu Shilin's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said with a sincere expression.
"Xu Shilin, you shut up for me, there is no room for you to speak here, I said earlier, if you want to leave, no one will stop you. Hearing this, Lei Shi immediately pointed his finger at Xu Shilin and said angrily.
Seeing Lei Shi embarrass himself in front of him so mercilessly, Xu Shilin immediately blushed, and said coldly, "Lei Shi, I respect you as a senior and have always tolerated you, you don't toast and don't eat and drink, you really tore your face with me, and it will be too late to regret it." ”
"Yes, I was going to deal with you after I returned to the city, but since you are bent on death, then I will fulfill you. Lei Shi's eyes were sharp, and he smiled coldly.
"What a big breath, and I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue, today I want to see what you, the so-called senior, are capable of. Xu Shilin said proudly, and then pulled out his blood-colored long sword with a 'sonorous', and the blade of the sword pointed directly at the thunder stone.
Looking at the scene in front of him that suddenly became tense, Feng Ming and Huo Lian, who didn't know the reason, glanced at each other, both confused.
