Chapter 60: The Past 3
The sound of wind chimes has been drifting into this sparse forest from far and near, but there has been nothing unusual in the darkness.
Regarding Lin Xiaoyang's doubts, Lin Zhiwu could only shake his head and say, "I don't know." After speaking, Lin Zhiwu added: "No matter what the voice is, let's hide it first, and then make plans when we see the situation clearly." After all, in the middle of the night, we are in the wilderness again, so we should be cautious, and we must not cause trouble for no reason!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoyang nodded, then got up and followed Lin Zhiwu to the forest a few meters away, but this forest is too sparse, although it is night, but if you look carefully, you can still see that there are people in the forest. But they could not go further into the woods, and they were too far to see what was going on on the trail.
Looking around him, Lin Zhiwu suddenly reached out and pulled Lin Xiaoyang's sleeve, and then stretched out his hand and pointed at the top of the two of them's heads.
Lin Xiaoyang looked up in the direction of Lin Zhiwu's finger, but what he saw was the lush branches and leaves of a big tree, and when he looked down, Lin Xiaoyang looked at Lin Zhiwu suspiciously, with undisguised doubts on his face.
I saw Lin Zhiwu suddenly jump up, and jumped directly onto the branch of the big tree with dense branches above the heads of the two, and then leaned back, Lin Zhiwu was immediately covered by the dense branches and leaves around him, and he couldn't find half a trace.
Lin Xiaoyang finally understood, and then jumped up on the big tree with dense foliage, and then learned from Lin Zhiwu to cover his body with the dense branches and leaves on the tree.
"Deputy Steward Lin, our horse is still down there!" Lin Xiaoyang's deliberately muffled voice suddenly came from the dense foliage.
"There's no time to take care of them now, it's just two horses, and it doesn't matter if they are discovered, just don't let the other party find out about us. Don't think about anything else, just hold your breath and pay attention to what's going on around you. Lin Zhiwu's voice was also deliberately low.
Lin Xiaoyang didn't answer again, only obediently held his breath and paid attention to the wind and grass around him.
And on the other side, through the layers of tree shadows, on the path that Lin Zhiwu and Lin Xiaoyang walked, a trace of light and shadow could be faintly seen shaking.
The light and shadow were approaching the direction where Lin Zhiwu and Lin Xiaoyang were, and the sound like wind chimes became clearer and more pleasant.
The moon was covered by a few dark clouds floating in the sky, and there was silence all around, only the wind chimes that became clearer and more pleasant floated in this forest path, a little cool, a little crazy.
Suddenly, two white shadows side by side in this night like ghosts from far and near, their feet seemed to walk and float, and behind them dragged a long series of white shadows, only to make people feel that there was a flower in front of them, white shadows and near the front.
Behind the white shadow, there was a piece of light, a piece of white.
In this dark night, that piece of light seemed so eye-catching, so dazzling and dazzling.
Take a closer look, but the two white shadows led by the leader are followed by four white shadows in a row, the four white shadows are holding a long pole of two meters long and the same thickness in their hands, and a twenty-centimeter-long crossbar stretches out horizontally on the top of the pole, on which are hung three white lanterns connected together, each lantern has an ink character written on it, but because it is far away, it is difficult to see clearly.
Although the strings of lanterns swayed back and forth with the movements of the white shadows and the occasional night breeze in the forest, they showed no sign of extinguishing them, and they were still dazzlingly bright.
Further back, there is a roof carried by four people, and there is a pole erected at the four corners of the chariot, in which there is a white gauze connected, and the white gauze gently flutters with the movement of the chariot, but it still tightly covers the scene in the chariot, so that people can only vaguely see that there seems to be a person sitting in the chariot, but it is impossible to distinguish whether the person is male or female.
The sound like silver bells was emitted by a string of silver wind chimes hanging from the top of the four corner poles of the chariot.
The steps moved, the wind chimes followed, and the silver bells rang.
After the step, there were also four white shadows, and the four white shadows were also holding a long pole about two meters long and of the same thickness, and there were also three white lanterns connected together on the top of the pole, on which there was also a word in the book, but because it was far away, it was difficult to see clearly.
Further back, there were eight white shadows following in two teams.
The group of white shadows gradually moved from far to near, and gradually it became clear that those white shadows were all people, and they were all women! They were wearing uniform white dresses, and their figures were almost all tall and feminine, but their faces were covered with a layer of white veil, which made it difficult to see their appearances.
In just such a moment, those people were already very close, and Lin Zhiwu and Lin Xiaoyang, who were hiding among the branches and leaves of the big tree, could also see the words on the three connected lanterns held by the women in white with one word written on each, and when they looked down from above, they were all three block letters of "Netherworld".
Through the layers of branches and leaves, Lin Xiaoyang and Lin Zhiwu were really taken aback when they saw this scene. Of course, Lin Zhiwu was more surprised than Lin Xiaoyang.
The Netherworld Palace?!! that the palace is full of all the same women, mainly Gu poison, so that the martial arts people in the Nine Kingdoms martial arts who claim to be righteous gritted their teeth with hatred, but because the previous martial arts alliance leader Aolong has no leader in the martial arts, and because they are afraid that they are good at Gu poisoning, they have not dared to have a big encirclement and suppression action, that erratic Netherworld Palace??
They didn't stay in the southern part of Dazhang Country, so what did they do when they came to Daliang Country when they had nothing to do? And looking at the direction they were going, could it be that they also wanted to go to Nanling County in the south of the Yangtze River to participate in this year's martial arts conference? What are you kidding? Those martial arts people who claim to be righteous will not be able to kill them, they will not rush to death!!
When Lin Zhiwu thought like this, he saw that the two horses that were lying on the ground on the side of the path suddenly neighed and jumped up from the ground, both kicking their hooves in place, pulling the reins tied to the trunk of the tree, as if they were frightened and wanted to escape, but Lin Zhiwu and Lin Xiaoyang both tied the reins of the horses too tightly, and the two horses could not break free from the restraints after tossing for a long time.
Lin Zhiwu looked at it suspiciously, but saw that in just a moment, the group of Netherworld Palace Palace people had already traveled to the place where he and Lin Xiaoyang were hiding, and the two Netherworld Palace people who were the leader were almost standing parallel to the big tree where they were hiding.
I don't know if it's because of those two horses that kept tossing and turning or what, in short, the team of Netherworld Palace people stopped, and they stopped next to those two horses!
The step stopped, and the wind chimes that shook with the step also gradually stopped, and the wind chimes gradually stopped.
I don't know if I understood it or what, when the team of Netherworld palace people stopped, the two horses struggled more and more fiercely, and even the trees with the reins were torn and swayed. I saw dozens of leaves leaving the branches one after another with the violent shaking of the trunk, and under the light of the candlelight, they all fluttered and fell in the air.
"Why, why did you stop?" In the step, a soft female voice came out, which was nice but not coquettish, but it had a seductive taste.
It turned out that the person sitting on the chariot was also a woman. However, is there a man in the Netherworld?
"Returning to the Holy Maiden, there are two horses tied to a tree here, and there should be people nearby, but the subordinates have not seen any of them, presumably they have hidden them when they sensed that we were coming. One of the two Netherworld Palace palace people turned around and bent down respectfully in the direction of Bu Yuan, and his voice was also very light and good.
"Oh, is it?" came the soft female voice that seemed to be a lazy question, and then, only the soft female voice could be heard and said softly: "So, go and kill those two horses to this holy woman!"
"Yes, saint!" said the Netherworld palace man respectfully, and then, as she straightened up, she turned around, drew the scimitar pinned to her waist, and then walked towards the two horses who were still struggling.
Just as the Netherworld Palace was about to use the scimitar in her hand to end the lives of the two horses less than a meter away from her, she suddenly heard a man's voice in the forest to stop her, and his voice was clear: "Don't hurt our horses!!"
The Netherworld Palace man was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and a figure had jumped down from a large tree with dense foliage in the forest, and then ran straight in the direction of the horse.
On the chariot surrounded by all the people of the Netherworld Palace, a breeze blew, lifting the corner of the gauze curtain around the chariot, and the woman sitting on the chariot at the back of the gauze curtain could be vaguely seen After seeing the figure, she suddenly hooked the corners of her lips painted with red lip gloss, revealing a smile of unknown meaning.
The next moment, the wind passed, and the curtain fell again, and the qiē disappeared again. It's just that no one has discovered this qiē.
Lin Xiaoyang ran all the way to the Netherworld Palace man holding the scimitar at a very fast speed, and then, when the other party just reacted and wanted to stab Lin Xiaoyang with the scimitar in his hand, Lin Xiaoyang had already snatched the scimitar in the hand of the Netherworld Palace man with lightning speed, and then slapped his palm on the opponent's left shoulder, forcing the other party to retreat.
After the Netherworld Palace man was forced to retreat and stand still, he still wanted to fight back, but was stopped by the woman sitting in the chariot with a voice: "You are not his opponent, stand down!" Although the voice was lazy, it attacked the Netherworld Palace person with unquestionable pressure.
Hearing this, the Netherworld Palace man immediately retracted the enemy move he had just put forward, and returned to his original position without saying a word, standing obediently with his hands tied down like other Netherworld Palace people.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyang, who was standing in front of the two horses, threw down the scimitar he had snatched in his hand, and looked at the palace people in the Netherworld Palace with a wary expression, as if as long as they dared to take a step forward, he would definitely not show mercy to his subordinates.
As for Lin Zhiwu, seeing that Lin Xiaoyang actually jumped down for the sake of two horses and exposed his whereabouts, although he was so angry by Lin Xiaoyang's impulse that he wanted to hit the wall, Lin Zhiwu could only jump down with his fate, and then rushed to Lin Xiaoyang's side without stopping, staring at the chariot surrounded by a group of palace people from the Netherworld Palace, holding a soft sword in his right hand and pinching the sword trick in his left hand to prepare for battle.
