The atmosphere in the forest was a little solemn, and the team of more than 200 people who continued to move forward had already walked two miles in this moment. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yan Juncao shook the leather whip pinned to his waist, stared at the treetops, for fear that some monsters would jump from the trees, and asked softly, "Boy, when I met you yesterday, you came out wearing a Taoist robe?" ”

Li Tianqi nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Yan Juncao said: "It seems that you must know some Taoism?" ”

Li Tianqi said: "Yes, of course, I am not a master, but I still have some means to encounter some demons." ”

Yan Juncao said: "That's good. It seems that the army still needs to recruit some talents of all kinds. What is your name? There was no longer the nervousness in Fang Cai's tone, and it was obvious that he already had a sense of trust in Li Tianqi.

Li Tianqi said: "Under Li Tianqi." ”

Yan Juncao closed his eyes and thought for a while, "Hey, no wonder I think you're a little embarrassed, it seems that you weren't conscripted into the army?" ”

Li Tianqi smiled lightly and said: "I really am not, but it doesn't matter, I don't have anywhere to go anyway, just go with you and see the outside world." ”

Yan Juncao said: "Li Tianqi, seeing that you are witty, you must not be bad at your skills, if you serve before the army, your future achievements will not be under me, and I don't ask why you followed those recruits to get in, I think you will simply make a mistake and join the army to serve the country, how about it?" ”

Li Tianqi thought for a while, "Well, let's talk about it, we still have to think about how to take precautions first to protect everyone from being injured by this monster at night." He looked at the saber stuck in the trunk of the tree, "It seems that this man was thrown with the saber before he was sucked, and injured the monster." I wonder where the other two missing are? ”

Yan Juncao had already started to search around, "I just followed your train of thought, and I feel that it was really the woman in white who let them go, and they came here because they were blind and scared......

Li Tianqi said: "If they walked here by themselves and then met the monster, it would be nothing, I am worried about whether they were led here by the monster." That's a little scary. ”

Yan Juncao asked, "Why?" ”

Li Tianqi said: "Because this shows that the way of the monsters is higher, and the place where we camped is half an hour away, and we deliberately brought them here for fear that they would not be able to do it in case they scream." But I thought about it for a while, the monster must have not been in the Tao for more than a hundred years, so I didn't know how to cover up the traces, and if it led them to a more secluded place, we or other passers-by would not have noticed it and would be wary. ”

Yan Jun Cao didn't understand what Li Tianqi said about the century-old Taoism, but he also admired Li Tianqi's eloquence when he heard it, "Hmm." Anyway, how good you say. It's up to you to arrange the guards at night. ”

After leaving the body of a dozen feet from a rock, they found something again.

It was two identical corpses, their eyes gouged out, their swords had fallen to the ground, their scabbards had fallen to the side, the ground was still a little messy, and they both had several stab wounds on their bodies, and the only thing they had in common was the bloody mass on their abdomen.

Li Tianqi and Yan Juncao used a branch to pick open the clothes of the two dried corpses, and found that their fatal wounds were the same as the previous one, and the blood marks on their bodies were only flesh wounds.

Yan Juncao was a little puzzled: "Judging from the knife wounds, these two people are fighting each other." ”

Li Tianqi said: "They are slashing each other, but they have to do it as a last resort, in the case of not seeing each other, they only instinctively draw their swords to protect themselves, but they did not expect that their own people hurt their own people, I think the reason must be provoked by the monster, the two of them waved their knives in a hurry to protect themselves, but they still became the belly of the monster." But things are a little serious......"

Yan Juncao saw him frowning slightly, so he asked, "What?" ”

Li Tianqi said: "This doesn't look like one monster did it, but many. ”

Yan Juncao was taken aback, "How many more?" ”

Li Tianqi looked at the surrounding trees and said, "Yes." The fatal wounds were of different depths and appearances, but they were actually different in size. ”

Yan Juncao glanced at the wound again, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you're right." It's really different. Then let's hurry up and keep up with the big army, and don't pop up another group of monsters at this time. ”

Li Tianqi looked at the bright sun and said with a smile: "Don't worry, with such a big sun, these monsters that come out of the night won't be so rampant." ”

At this moment, the sunlight fell on the two dried corpses through the cracks in the woods, and a sound of "swish" came out from inside, and Yan Juncao quickly held the long whip in his hand and jumped back a few steps.

Li Tianqi also paid close attention, holding the trick of catching demons to prevent problems.

The sound was still the same, and puffs of white smoke burst out from the two dead bodies, as if something was burning, just a cup of tea, and when Li Tianqi and Yan Juncao saw it clearly, there were only a large pile of water and some clothes scraps on the ground, and the two dried corpses were nowhere to be found.

Yan Juncao was stunned: "What about them? He looked at the top of the trees with alarm, "Have you also turned into a demon?" ”

Li Tianqi shook his head and said: "It is estimated that their bodies are poisonous, and they will turn into a puddle of water when exposed to the sun." ”

Yan Juncao exhaled heavily, "Fortunately, you stopped me, otherwise I would have reached out and flipped around, and I might have been poisoned." ”

Li Tianqi said: "I don't know what kind of monsters these are, but they are also evil. Let's get out of here. ”

"Okay." Yan Juncao said.

The two walked back to the place where they came, and Yan Juncao turned over and got on the horse.

Yan Juncao said, "Do you want to come up?" ”

Li Tianqi said with a smile: "Jun Cao will catch up with the front team first, and we will arrive in a while." ”

Yan Juncao nodded, rode his horse and ran out for a few feet, he stopped the horse again, turned around and asked loudly, "Li Tianqi, you won't come back, right?" ”

Li Tianqi arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, Li Tianqi still has this bit of credit." ”

Yan Jun Cao Wei clenched his fists, turned around and rode his horse wildly.

Li Tianqi turned his head and looked in the direction where Nangong Shuo and the others walked out, they were sitting far away on the side of the road. And Nangong Shuo was still beating Qin Guo's back, and Qin Guo was obviously vomiting.

Li Tianqi ran over, "What, are you still throwing up?" ”

Nangong Shuo nodded and said, "I almost vomited all the bile." ”

Li Tianqi said: "It's the first time I've seen such a terrible scene, and it's normal. He thought about how he hadn't felt that way in the first place. But now I can talk and laugh in front of such a horrific scene.

Nangong Shuo asked, "What did you see?" Isn't it them? ”

Li Tianqi nodded and said, "It's indeed them, and there are monsters here, we have to leave quickly." ”

"Youkai?" Nangong Shuo's hand that gently hammered Qin Guo's back stopped in mid-air, obviously he was frightened, and immediately, he immediately pulled Qin Guo up: "Hurry up, Qin Guo, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time." ”

Li Tianqi also worked together to support Qin Guo on the side, "There's no need to panic too much, Brother Nangong forgot what I did?" ”

Nangong Shuo glanced at Li Tianqi's clothes, although he had changed into the clothes he gave him yesterday, he still remembered that he was wearing a Taoist robe when he appeared, so he said: "Yes, how did I forget that you are a Taoist priest, hey......"

Li Tianqi smiled: "Yes." Brother Nangong doesn't have to be nervous. Although my skills are not very high, the monsters here don't seem to be very strong, as long as you deal with them carefully. Let's go, let's catch up. ”

Although he smiled, he was thinking about how to prepare for tonight. Of course, he didn't want the two people in front of him to be worried about the monsters in the forest all the time.

Sure enough, although Qin Guo didn't speak, his already pale face was even more frightened after hearing that there were monsters, and it wasn't until he saw the smile on Li Tianqi's face that he eased up a lot.

Nangong Shuo was also nervous, but he was also encouraged by Li Tianqi, and at this time he was slightly calmer and no longer as nervous as Fang Cai.

Sometimes that's the case, a belief or an invisible self-confidence can give great encouragement to those around you......

Just as they were leaving, a black, furry claw suddenly appeared in the mud hole under an ancient tree, but it was only exposed for a while, and then quickly retracted into the mud hole.

The team that meandered through the forest road, in front of him was now Yan Juncao leading the team, he had already returned to the team, he knew that he couldn't play up the monsters at will, he just briefly described it with his relatives, and secretly ordered the team to speed up. The group, though mostly recruits, now had a much higher pace, though the mountain roads were rough and difficult, and there were occasional mountain streams, narrow roads that bogged wagons carrying heavy grain and grass into craters, and many of whom had to help push and pull.

Li Tianqi and the other three have also returned to the team, still following behind, and they are the hardest at the moment, because the position they are standing in the team is next to these baggage.

As the saying goes, the difficulty of the Shu Road is more difficult than the blue sky, and it is true that although the team's footsteps have been accelerated a lot, the winding mountain roads and jungles still seriously delay the army's journey.

And the afterglow of the setting sun reflected the rolling dark clouds, just a cup of tea, the sky was already a dark yellow color, and the overhead was already covered with dark clouds.

This is a mountain road, the mountain road is not wide, the road is steep on one side of the cliff, and on the other side is the mountain, on the top of the road is a raised cliff, just to provide a natural pergola for the team to shelter from the rain.

Seeing that the heavy rain was about to fall, if you continued to hurry, you had to get out of this natural rain shelter, and you would inevitably be drenched in soup, so Yan Juncao ordered everyone to rest on the spot.

The long line stopped.

Just as everyone was hiding in the cliff, the pouring rain was already rolling down, and in an instant, the wind and rain slapped on the cliff face, and then rolled down the rock wall, like a curtain of water, tightly covering the team of about 200 people......
