Chapter 10: The Black Tiger
After killing the four Yan brothers, Hu Kui also suffered a lot of injuries, although the external injuries looked terrifying, but what was more fatal was the internal injuries caused by Yan Long, Mu Tianxiang couldn't even bear Yan Long's palm, but Hu Kui was attacked by Yan Long four or five times in order to kill the four Yan brothers as soon as possible, and the internal organs could not bear it for a long time, which is also Hu Kui's profound skills, otherwise he would have been killed by Yan Long in the palm of his hand.
"Boy, come over if you're not dead. Hu Kui, who was slumped on the ground, shouted at Mu Tianxiang.
"Captain Hu, what's the matter?" Mu Tianxiang was sore all over, and got up from the ground with difficulty.
The valley has been ruined, and it is a mess. It turned out that the acquaintances in the team were now lying on the ground in various postures. Among them were the four brothers of the Yan family, the high-level masters of Tang and Tang, who died like this. It was originally an opportunity for this small mercenary team, a huge opportunity, but in the blink of an eye, it became the culprit who destroyed this team. Human greed is indeed more terrifying than the ferocious demonic beasts, looking at everything in front of him, Mu Tianxiang sighed with emotion.
"Don't be emotional, this is the rivers and lakes, this is the life of our mercenaries and monks, and I don't know how many of the same things happen every day under this sky. We monks fight with the heavens, with the monsters, with the people, and as long as we don't die, this kind of struggle will not stop. With Hu Kui's words, blood gushed out in large gulps.
In the morning light, Mu Tianxiang slowly stood up, his body still looked very weak, and spots of blood were sprinkled all over his chest. Mu Tianxiang knew that he was seriously injured, but fortunately it was not fatal, and he shook the single knife in his hand, and the pain in his hands, chest, and thighs came rushing in, and the nerves were pulled more clearly again and again. But Mu Tianxiang knew that he couldn't retreat at this time, and retreating would mean death.
The pain constantly stimulated Mu Tianxiang's brain and nerves, keeping him mentally sharp and not falling into a coma. Mu Tianxiang raised his single knife and looked at Hu Kui a few feet away vigilantly.
"I didn't expect it, the last one to live was you, the kid with the lowest cultivation, and all such a big benefit is yours, but whether you can enjoy it or not, only God knows. Hu Kui laughed and said.
"I can't live, all the internal organs are broken, boy, I advise you to get out of here quickly, don't fight the idea of these two demonic beast corpses, there are wandering mercenaries everywhere outside Qingshan Town, they will rob the mercenaries who go back, you can't keep these alone, it's just that you got lucky to enter Qingshan Town, those so-called rules, in the face of such a huge wealth is a joke." It's up to you whether you listen or not, after all, wealth is moving, and in the face of such a temptation, there are few people who can resist it. But if you take the wrong step, you will pay the price of your life, think for yourself. After saying such a long sentence, Hu Kui's complexion became even more gray, and his eyes began to drift.
"Neurotic, you are all fucking neurotic, such a big opportunity, several of us can have it together, why do you want this, now you are satisfied. Mu Tianxiang moved his steps with difficulty and came to Hu Kui, pointed at Hu Kui with a single knife and roared.
"Cultivation requires a lot of resources, how can you make progress without fighting or grabbing, in the final analysis, people are greedy, especially monks. Hu Kui said in a deep voice.
When Mu Tianxiang's single knife was very close to Hu Kui, it made a slight hissing sound, as if he wanted to break free from Mu Tianxiang's control and pounce on Hu Kui. The abnormal movement of the single knife also attracted Hu Kui's attention.
"Your knife is not simple. Hu Kui said.
"I don't know what's going on, this knife will suck the blood of monks above the prefecture level. Mu Tianxiang clenched the single knife in his hand. Said.
"This world is amazing, there are many things we don't know, many high-level weapons will have some special skills, and it is the first time I have seen it if I suck the blood of monks. It seems that this is also a high-level weapon, so pay attention to it in the future, if someone finds out, it may cause you to be killed. Hu Kui was very calm, and simply explained and admonished a few words.
"Boy, I don't think you're a bad guy either, how about we make a deal. Hu Kui pondered for a while and said in a low voice.
"What a deal, you're dying, how to trade. Mu Tianxiang looked at Hu Kui and raised his vigilance.
"You help me do something, and the reward is this Qiankun bag on my waist, which contains the elixir collected this time and the little money I have accumulated before. Hu Kui pointed to an earthy yellow bag around his waist.
"When you die, isn't it all mine, why should I help you. Mu Tianxiang said loudly.
"You're right, I'm not qualified to trade with you right now. Hu Kui fell into deep thought.
"Tell me, if I can help, I'll try," Mu Tianxiang said after a pause. "For the sake of your face in taking care of me along the way, of course, this face is worth being busy, and I won't do it if it's too difficult. Mu Tianxiang added.
"I'll tell you a secret, I've seen you before, the shopkeeper you live in is my wife, and we also have a child named Hu Bing, otherwise your cultivation is so low, I wouldn't recruit you to the team. Speaking of this, Hu Kui's sloppy eyes shone with brilliant brilliance.
"You are Sister Lotus's husband," this news really startled Mu Tianxiang, and Mu Tianxiang couldn't connect the rude mercenary in front of him with the charming Sister Lotus.
"This matter, many people in the town know about it, I protect the lotus, otherwise how could she, an ordinary person, open a shop in the town safely. Hu Kui said with a smile.
"I'm over 200 years old, and I've seen through life and death. More than ten years ago, I went to Qingshan Town and met Lotus, we fell in love, I stayed in this town, and we had our own children eight years ago......" said this, Hu Kui's gray face flashed with happy memories. "Lotus is just an ordinary person, unable to cultivate, and the two of them are the ones I am most worried about. If the news of my death reaches the town, they will definitely have a hard time, after all, I have offended too many people over the years. A hint of remorse appeared on Hu Kui's face.
"I want you to tell Lotus about my death, and then take them out of Castle Peak Town. Can you do it?" Hu Kui looked at Mu Tianxiang nervously.
"I'm just a little yellow-level monk, I don't even have the ability to protect myself, I can only be Stamina. Mu Tianxiang hesitated for a moment and said.
"Also, you left Qingshan Town with the lotus girl. Whether you can escape and ascend to heaven depends on your fate, and this fucking world can't let people live in peace. Hu Kui said with a long sigh.
"Boy, after a while, you will leave immediately with my Qiankun bag, and when you meet other mercenaries to check, you will say that I asked you to sell the medicinal materials in it, and then purchase some things, the news of my death has not reached the town, no one dares to turn my face for this little thing, let these two monsters go, my Qiankun bag is too small, it can't fit at all, if you take out the demon pill of the monster, the Qiankun bag can't hide the breath of the demon pill at all, and you can't escape the inspection of the caring person, your cultivation is too low, and you can't keep it at all." The opportunity is too great, and that is the disaster of death. Hu Kui admonished.
"It's not impossible, I have a storage ring, but I can't open it. Mu Tianxiang said cautiously.
"Show me," Hu Kui said.
Mu Tianxiang took out the dark storage ring from his close-fitting clothes and handed it to Hu Kui. As a prefecture-level master, although Hu Kui was seriously injured and even dying, his divine sense had not been damaged too much, so he easily opened the storage ring and carefully examined it.
"Your ring is not of low grade, it is the size of a hundred zhang, it can fully hold these two magical beasts, and there are a lot of good things in it, it seems that your luck is good. However, due to the high level, this storage ring can only be opened with divine sense, and no other way can be used. Hu Kui checked it and said.
"What's inside?" asked Mu Tianxiang curiously.
"These things are too high-level, you can't use them now, they are all trouble-making things, I won't tell you, and you can see for yourself when you can open them. Hu Kui said.
"I'm running out of time now, you moved me to the Demon Beast, it's too far, my sense is not enough. Hurry up," Hu Kui said.
Mu Tianxiang also knew that time was running out, so he quickly moved Hu Kui to the side of the demonic beast according to his curiosity, and Hu Kui used his divine sense to quickly move the corpses of the Nether Tiger and the Canglong Python to the storage ring.
"I hope you can take care of the lotus girl, so they will ask you. Hu Kui handed the ring into Mu Tianxiang's hand, took Mu Tianxiang's hand and said.
"I tried my best. Mu Tianxiang said solemnly.
"It's good to have a heart, and the rest depends on your fate......" Hu Kui smiled indifferently, his eyes slowly dissipated, and the hands that grabbed Mu Tianxiang's arms slowly slipped down, a dignified ground-level master, and he finished his life.
"Huh" Mu Tianxiang heard the roar of a demonic beast, looked down, and saw the cub of the Nether Tiger biting Mu Tianxiang's trouser legs. Since the storage ring could not hold a living thing, the cub of the Nether Tiger was pulled down. With the IQ of the Phantom Tiger cub, it still couldn't understand what was happening in front of it, but an instinctively familiar smell suddenly disappeared, so it bit Mu Tianxiang's trouser leg and didn't let go.
"As soon as you were born, you lost your mother, and you are also a hard worker, you will be called Black Tiger in the future, follow me," Mu Tianxiang bent down to pick up the cub of the Nether Tiger and said softly.
