Chapter 466: Thank you in person
"What, when you're full, you feel like you want to go?"
Coming to Lei Jiang's side, Ning Yue smiled faintly.
Lei Jiang glanced into the distance and said, "Don't you want to go and see?"
"Be careful, go and get back quickly. ”
On the side, Shu Kuo was rummaging around the bonfire without raising his head.
The two nodded in unison and turned to take a step. The mountains and forests under the night are very quiet, only the sound of the wind from time to time, and the rustling of branches and leaves. It was in that slight wind that they heard the rest.
Very light footsteps, and far more than one person. Although it is moving forward, the speed is not slow, but it deliberately does not make too much noise. To be able to achieve such unity and neatness, the origin of the comer is definitely not ordinary.
On the branches of the trees high up, Ning Yue and Lei Jiang sat and stood one by one, overlooking the below. In the dim distance, more than 20 moving figures could already be seen. Even at night, with their eyesight, they could barely see that the more than twenty people in front of them were uniformly dressed, and they should be from the same sect force.
"Have you ever seen this outfit?"
"Coincidentally, I've seen it. Famous Sword Gate, one of several large sects within a radius of hundreds of miles. Although the name of the sect is quite ostentatious, the style of the disciples of the sect is quite low-key. When I see you tonight, there are indeed some doorways. How's it going, since you bumped into it, why don't you go say hello?"
His gaze slowly swept over the group, Ning Yue suddenly shook his head and smiled, and said, "I see, I have to go." ”
Ahead, in the queue, an elder who led the team suddenly raised his hand and made a move, and in an instant, everyone's pace stopped, and they raised their hands in unison to hold down the hilt of the sword carrying the sword.
"What kind of person? Sneaky, dare to come out and see it?"
"Sneaky, isn't it, in this dangerous mountain range, it should be right to be cautious?"
Ning Yue jumped down and spread his hands, indicating that there was no hostility. At the same time, Lei Jiang also jumped down, and he also had no blade in his hand.
However, the elder's expression was still solemn, and he said, "There seems to be a few traces of blood left in the wind, since the two of you are waiting here, you should know what happened, right?"
"Of course. Ning Yue replied and briefly recounted what happened in the afternoon. Of course, the wandering ghost is still hidden by him.
When the words fell, there was a sneer among the people of the Famous Sword Sect, and one of them pointed at Ning Yue, and snorted with disdain: "Hey, did you just say that the group of demonic beasts and beasts that blocked hundreds of people was broken through by the two of you, and then the giant beasts under his command were killed together with its guards? ”
Immediately, there was a sigh and laughter in the crowd, pointing and pointing.
Frowning, Ning Yue didn't reply, but just leaned over to Lei Jiang's side and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you just say that the famous sword sect is not ostentatious?"
"I've only heard that a few times I've met from afar, where do I know the details?" Lei Jiang shrugged helplessly, stepped out and said: "Everyone, believe it or not, feel free." Whether it is in front of this mountain forest, or at the entrance to the deep burial depth, there are many corpses of demonic beasts, and they are also fresh. You should be able to see what is happening. ”
"Of course, we can see that. The corpses of demonic beasts in one place must have had a vicious battle. It's just that what exactly the battle was like is unknown. I'm curious, you said there were hundreds of people in the afternoon battle, so why are you two left here? Oh no, there's still a fire over there, so I think it's your companion, right?"
It was the previous disciple who spoke, with a look of contempt.
"When the battle was over, it was almost night, and we dragged our tired bodies and didn't want to rush at night, so we chose to camp and rest today. As for the rest, some have already given up on the trip to Qingque Mountain and left the place. More, chose to continue on the road and into the depths of the mountains. The road is just ahead, so if you want to go, please take it. ”
Ning Yue moved out of the way and leaned aside. Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, for these famous people in front of him, the admonition he should say is enough, and he is benevolent and righteous. As for their rudeness, let them go. What he did was not at all in exchange for the approval of these strangers.
"Yo Yo Yo, the lie has been discovered, and we can't make it up, so we are in a hurry to urge us to leave? Since you have stayed here, it would be good to wait until dawn tomorrow to take away some more valuable things from the corpse of the demonic beast. This is not for those of you who don't have the strength and still want to be opportunistic. ”
Another famous Sword Sect disciple shouted in a strange voice, pointed at Ning Yue, snorted coldly, and continued to move forward with the rest of his companions. When everyone passed by the way, they basically glanced at Ning Yue or Lei Jiang, with obvious ridicule. As for the elder who led the team, he didn't even look at the two of them at all.
Looking at their departing backs, Lei Jiang gritted his teeth and clenched his hanging fist.
"Hey, you don't seem to be angry at all?"
Ning Yue shrugged his shoulders and replied: "Let them say it, anyway, the truth is in your hearts and mine." Whether they admit it or not, the facts will not change. What if you fight with them, even if you win? At most, they are not convinced, and there is no need to fight. Besides, you and I are now, against so many people plus sect elders, how can we have a chance of winning?"
Snorting softly, Lei Jiang smiled: "You are not indifferent at all, but you are used to it and are too lazy to fight, right?"
"Pretty much. What if you win, it's a waste of effort. Besides, everyone is here for the Holy Spring of Qingque Mountain, but they are competing for places, and we will be enemies with them. Wouldn't it be nice not to expose our strength now and let them despise us? When the time comes, it's good to have an account and settle it together. Let's go, go back. ”
"I see, I really thought you didn't care. It's not that you don't report it, the time has not come. ”
After going back, the two only casually mentioned the matter of bumping into the famous sword gate, and did not say that the two sides were arguing. In order to hurry, the famous sword gate went straight to the mountain pass, and passed directly through the camp without passing through this camp.
But the night passed safely, and for his own sake. Only occasionally I heard a few howls of demonic beasts in the distance, as well as the screams of what seemed to be human powerhouses.
The next day, on the road again, the group stepped into the mountain pass and went deep into the mountains.
Maybe they were too slow, and they didn't even meet any of the teams that had entered the place yesterday. Even, on the way, they were crossed by two sects who hurried from the rear, and they only glanced at each other, and they didn't even say hello.
Near noon, a fork in the road appeared, not just two forks, but three roads.
Everyone stopped, Shu Kuo and Lei Jiang subconsciously glanced at each other, and each was silent.
Ning Yue crossed his hands on his hips and turned around and drank: "Say whatever you want." Anyway, I don't know the way, it's all up to you. ”
Shu Kuo replied: "The road on the left leads to Ranwu Prefecture. The middle and right ones can go to Qingque Mountain, but the distance is different. There is a detour on the right, which is farther away. The middle was closer, but the forest ahead was inhabited by more terrifying beasts, and finally through a deep cave, from the belly of the mountain into the valley ahead. ”
"That is, the middle road is close, but dangerous. It's safer on the right, but it's a detour, farther away?"
Ning Yue nodded, looking up at the mountains in the distance ahead, the peaks were as steep as a sharp blade pointing to the sky, and it was not easy to climb over. If he were alone, he would be fine with the Wing Hunting Technique. But here, except for Shu Kuo, I'm afraid no one can keep up.
"If you want me to say, take the middle way. Lei Jiang pointed ahead.
"If I choose, go to the right. Shu Kuo disagreed, and his expression was slightly serious. After all, he needed to think about the people he had brought to his sect, and besides, his own pair of sons and daughters were also here.
After a few glances, Ning Yue raised his hand and rubbed his chin, suddenly looked at Meng Ye, and said with a smile: "Meng Ye, if you choose, what do you think?"
After pondering, Meng Ye replied, "If it's me, choose to go in the middle." ”
"Hey, the weakest one, but thinking of an adventurous route, no one will be able to take care of you when the time comes. Feng Zhi, a disciple of the Wing Hunt Sect, said angrily.
Meng Ye shook his head and replied, "No, I think those previous sects should have taken the middle route. Yes, they thought that after all, there were a lot of people, and it was really impossible to encounter things, so they temporarily joined forces like yesterday. There are so many people who have already gone there, and if we go again, there should be fewer obstacles blocking the way. On the other hand, because the road is far away, there are fewer people to choose from, and there may be more obstacles left ahead. ”
This kind of luck mentality, everyone who chooses this path, I am afraid that this is what they think. The danger has already been encountered by the people in front of you, and you are fine. One more thing you need to be clear, Warcraft is very cunning. In the face of a large number of people, they may give up the fight. But if there are few people, it is likely that the murder will be exposed. Even after passing through the mountains and forests in front of you, the cave you have to pass through has had a bad legend for hundreds of years. I don't dare bet. ”
Shu Kuo shook his head, and stood alone on the right intersection. Several people belonging to the Wing Hunt Sect naturally followed him.
"Then, Sect Master Shu, thank you all the way. We will be separated for the time being, and hope that when the time comes, we will see you again in Qingque Mountain. ”
Arching his hand, Ning Yue stayed at the intersection in the middle. With him, only Lei Jiang and Meng Ye were there.
"Take care. ”
"Take care. ”
After saying goodbye, the two passers-by separated, and suddenly there were only these few people left beside them, which was a little unaccustomed. The three of them didn't say a word on the road, and just walked quietly. In the distance ahead, the howl of demonic beasts was faintly heard, and there was also the sound of fierce battles and beatings.
Finally, Lei Jiang spoke: "By the way, shouldn't you have chosen this middle path just to see the embarrassment of the Famous Sword Gate being blocked by demonic beasts?"
Ning Yue smiled: "I'm not so careful. If it's not for whom, there's probably only one. You say, if she chooses that wandering ghost yesterday, which way will it go?"
His face did not change, and Lei Jiang said: "Isn't it? You even dare to fight her idea?" I warn you, there were once several young masters of several sects who thought they were outstanding, and they talked to the wandering ghost, but they didn't pay attention to it at all. Among them, there were also two who wanted to get angry and strong, but they were taught a hard lesson. ”
"Where do you want to go? After all, she saved me once, and no matter what, I have to thank me in person. ”
When the words fell, Ning Yue's pace suddenly stopped, and the cross arm blocked to signal the two to stop.
"Lord Ning Yue, what's wrong?" Meng Ye was stunned for a moment, looked from afar, and then glanced left and right, but found nothing. However, he noticed that Lei Jiang's expression seemed to be solemn.
Ning Yue slowly pulled out the Dark Xuan Ancient Sword, and snorted and laughed: "It's nothing, what Sect Master Shu said before has been confirmed." Some Warcraft are very cunning and know how to pick off a single man. This time, though, they picked the wrong prey. ”
Above the three of them, a faint salsa sound sounded. In the air, there was a touch of fishy smell.
