Chapter 35: Counterattack (Part II)
Xiang Ling looked at him, there were countless sludge and sweat on his face, and asked softly, "Aren't you hurt?" Her words were surprisingly gentle, a gentleness that Leeches had never seen before, and although such words were often heard from Laxmi's mouth, Xiang Ling's tone actually contained richer feelings.
Could this be the work of the cold-faced woman?
The leech finally couldn't help crying "wow", this inexplicable grievance was really nowhere to release.
"How could it not be hurt—" Leech buried his head in his arm.
Xiang Ling nodded his head with his slender finger and said, "It's okay - I'll give you medicine." ”
Xiang Ling's technique is very professional and fast, and it is no big problem for the leech to rest for a while. Xiang Ling asked the ins and outs of the matter, and the leech knew Xiang Ling's comprehension ability, so to make a long story short.
"That's ...... It seems that the young master and your friend are implicated. Xiang Ling said, "But if it's too late, things will change, so I'll go to them." ”
Leech was also very anxious about this, so he immediately agreed: "Sister Xiangling, do you know the location of the enemy?" ”
"I don't know, but I know where the assassins' accomplices are, so I'm going to grab some tongues first." Xiang Ling said, "I want to make them suffer a little bit when I kidnap the young master." As he spoke, he clenched his fist.
The leech felt a terrible demonic power, and if Xiang Ling had an iron block in his hand, he was afraid that it would be pinched into powder. She really cares about the boy - if Hua Jiuxi or herself is captured, Xiang Ling will definitely not be so concerned.
"Well, you don't have to ......," Leech said.
Xiang Ling looked at him.
"My friend Lygia has some of my bodily fluids in her body...... said Leech, "and I can sense her position, and I can find her by that." ”
Xiang Ling's face turned red when he heard this strange words, and he didn't want to ask in detail, so he hurriedly said: "Okay, even if you don't say it, Young Master Leech, I will take you with me—because you are still very weak now—and I, I want to protect you." ”
Bidding farewell to the fleeting tenderness, Xiang Ling's tone was fast and indifferent, but this kind of words full of confidence and determination moved Leech for a while-he was just a child after all.
Before the operation, Xiang Ling replaced the Yunyun umbrella that he was used to on weekdays, and replaced it with a more grown-up one, and the umbrella cover was opened, as if a thick cloud had risen in the house. The surface of this umbrella is a dragon skin covered with shining scales, and the handle of the umbrella frame is a keel - six dragon claws stick out at the edge of the umbrella, and the end is suspended with a wind chime-like ornament, which can stir up a smart sound when moving left and right.
The tip of this large umbrella is like a spear, but the material is not like metal, and there are also a few grooved hooks, so I don't know what to do.
Although Xiang Ling is very tall, he is a little petite compared to this giant umbrella. She held the umbrella from the middle, as if she were holding a spear.
"Young Master Leech, do you want to dispose of those corpses?" Xiang Ling and Leech returned to the courtyard one after the other, and now the sky is cloudy and rainy, and there are many crows pecking and jumping on the corpses, as if they have arrived at a mass grave.
Fortunately, Hua Jiuxi's mansion is located in a mountainous area, and there are very few neighbors around, otherwise such a big movement would really frighten many people to death. But it's not a good thing to leave the body to dispose of either.
"Oh, don't you need an autopsy or something?" Leech asked.
"No, I know they're fine." Xiang Ling said, "It seems to be a group of assassins called 'Ground Heads'. They disguise themselves as civilians and are hired to carry out various assassinations and kidnappings. Because not long ago, many old demons were wiped out in Shaoguang City, and their power swelled rapidly. But what you killed here is a rudder of the early core. ”
"Ah, that's a ridiculous name, I'd love to hear about it." Leech said, "Now I can be regarded as provoking them...... Although Leech is not very afraid, no one wants to cause a disturbance.
"These thieves are all made friends with Eli, and even the closest people in a squad have been killed by you—how can anyone think of revenge? However, after they kidnap the hostages, they will extort a sum of money no matter what. Xiang Ling said, "Even if this is not the case, I am afraid that if you want to ask for a 'blood replenishment gold', it will be very difficult to entangle." ”
But Leech saw that there was no trace of anxiety in Xiang Ling's words, so he didn't say anything more. So far, he has never seen Xiang Ling quarrel with someone and have a red face, let alone make a move. So it's a bit of a look forward to it.
Leeches listened to Xiang Ling and went to clean up the corpse. As he collected the blood samples of the monsters, he slowly devoured the corpses of the monsters with his "scavenger" descendants—at this rate, even the large mule's corpse could be devoured in the middle of the night.
Xiang Ling saw that the leech was properly arranged, so he called out two locust horses, because he was afraid that the bumps would seriously hurt the five organs of the leech, so he only drove the horse slowly.
Leech looked around silently, knowing that Rikya was not in danger of life, and her location was somewhere in the southwest, so he led Xiang Ling forward. Halfway through, the rain began to fall.
Because there were no people on this road, let alone a road, the horses trampled on nothing more than deep grass and mud. Even so, Xiang Ling has no intention of holding an umbrella.
"Young master, you're not afraid of the rain." The sky was getting dark, and Xiang Ling was carrying an extremely bright qi death wind lamp - when the leech saw the bright light, he was immediately afraid.
"Well, I'm a youkai who likes moisture." Leech said.
"Me too." Xiang Ling said, "How far are we from our destination? ”
"At this distance, it will take half the time." "It's close," the leech said. ”
Xiang Ling and the two horses hurried again, and arrived at the place where the thieves were before entering the shift. Tie up the horses, and the two crouched in the grass first.
The leech is almost lying on the grassy beach, while Xiang Ling is so clean that he just kneels on one knee. There was a little demon who was watching the wind not far away and searched for Xiang Ling's figure.
The little demon hurriedly shot out two black and white bats from a bamboo tube and flew into the stronghold, which meant that two enemies came, one female and one male.
It is said that this stronghold is a building that looks like a Tafei Tower, which was built by a toast here for many years, and countless grains, gold and silver are stored in it. The most important thing is that he is small on the outside and big on the inside, and his belly can accommodate more than 1,000 armor soldiers, so when strong enemies attack from all sides, he is like a tumbler and does not fall.
It's just one year, the ancestor who came out of the land was in a good mood, and he and a few apprentices dressed up as merchants to negotiate with Toast about the sale of mountain goods-in the middle of the banquet, and directly gnawed and slaughtered the Tusi family. Those soldiers of Tusi had lost their souls long ago, and they were either enslaved or driven away.
More than 100 years later, this place has become a lair of demons, and it is usually heavily guarded. There are more than 10 dark whistles alone.
One by one, the little demons beat the drum and spread the news of the two, and in the end, the demon chief in the fortress knew the general idea of who came.
One is a strange woman dressed in the West, with a regular appearance, a modest manner, and a surprisingly large umbrella, but there is nothing different.
The other one, a teenager, looked like a weak little white face, as if he was a human being.
And the bad news of the elite team who went out to do the mission has been conveyed, and the demon chief would never have thought that it was this inconspicuous boy who annihilated him in one fell swoop.
How did the demon chief himself look? He was a young man in a blue robe with a folding fan in his hand. The fan was so clean that there wasn't a word on it.
This person has long hair, dead fish eyes, and thin lips, and now the lips are moving slightly: "Someone came up inexplicably, is it related to Miss?" ”
He was sitting on a large chair covered with seven brocades as he spoke, staring at a low stool at his feet. Four or five bull-headed and ghostly attendants lined up on the left and right, each holding a different weapon in their hands, bright and bright, golden and chaotic.
And the person who spoke to him in front of him was the previous "Ohimiko": "Oh, I'm afraid those two are coming to trouble me - you can't be sloppy at this juncture." ”
"Hehe, it's all easy to say. It's just that we just broke off dozens of brothers who died in vain—and this time we have to fight for your life again, isn't that a bit of an expression? The man said with a smile.
"I still have the deeds of a few gold mines here—I will deposit them with you first, Mr. Kong." "But while I'm on business, you'll have to keep it for me, about fifteen minutes." ”
Mr. Kong scoffed: "A girl and a child, how powerful can it be - besides, a good tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves?" You're underestimating us. Fifteen minutes, which should be the time for us to reimburse them! ”
Himiko doesn't care about the life or death of this gang of thieves, and after the next mission is completed, her spiritual power will be even stronger.
Himiko said goodbye to everyone and walked into a dark room upstairs.
