Chapter 27: Escape Plan (4)
"Isn't it, it's done so quickly?" Chen Yu didn't believe it at all, "Archery~"
"Yes, because she already has a foundation before, it won't be difficult to learn. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Yan Feng explained.
"That's right, if you can't learn how to protect yourself here, you'll be braided right away."
"Yes, and the demon we encountered today is getting stronger and stronger, how long can we protect her?" Yan Feng sighed lightly, "So, if you have time, you can also take the time to teach her how to use a knife, right?"
"Okay, I see." Chen Yu understood the meaning of his words.
As soon as it got dark, the three of them returned to the platform in the trees and chatted with each other.
"This is the first time I've slept in the mountains," Xia Cen was a little nervous, "It feels amazing!"
"Yes, without the protection of the church, I have to rely on myself for my safety tonight." Chen Yu continued.
"Xia Cen, you rest first, and at night, Chen Yu and I take turns guarding."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Xia Cen obediently lay down, closed his eyes and couldn't sleep at all, and all that appeared in his mind were some chaotic thoughts.
Yan Feng lay flat beside her, reached out to hold her hand, and said softly, "Rest well, don't think too much, huh?"
As the night fell, the surrounding area began to hear "squeak-squeak-squeak" from far and near.
"Damn," Chen Yu cursed, "it must have been the rescuers who came from the dead monkeys in the afternoon."
As soon as he heard a strange sound in his ears, Yan Feng immediately woke up alertly.
"They are the black monkeys that attacked you this afternoon?" Yan Feng got up, the guy, and prepared to fight.
"Yes." Chen Yu nodded.
"It seems that there are quite a lot of them," Yan Feng turned to him and asked, "What battle plan do you have?"
"Capture the thief and capture the king first, have you seen the red-eyed monkey hiding behind?" Chen Yu's eyes looked somewhere.
"Yes, obviously." Yan Feng nodded: "At a glance."
"Okay, I'll catch it later, and Xia Cen will hand it over to you."
"No, your knife is only suitable for melee attacks, you should cover me, and I can shoot it faster with a hammer."
"I'm here to help, too." Xia Cen suddenly spoke.
"No—" The two men replied at the same time.
"Why?" Xia Cen felt a little hurt, although she understood their good intentions, but she was always haunted by the fact that she could only be protected by others.
She had to get stronger, she didn't want to be a burden to them, and that thought had grown even stronger since she met that demonic pervert today.
"That's it," Yan Feng noticed that her face had changed, and knew that he had spoken too directly and hurt her heart, so he had to add, "After you have mastered your archery skills, I will hand over all long-range attacks to you in the future, how about it?"
"Hmm." When Xia Cen heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.
"But until then, it's up to us to protect you, okay?" Chen Yu continued, and the two of them sang together.
"Yes." She nodded immediately.
After the three of them reached a consensus, the monkeys also began to move.
"Squeak squeak—" The red-eyed monkey king let out a long list of calls.
All his subordinates rushed up at once, which was unexpected.
"Go down." Yan Feng shouted. Immediately clinging to the trunk of a nearby tree with both hands, he jumped back to the ground in less than three or two clicks. Then, he disappeared into the group of monkeys and disappeared.
Chen Yu protected Xia Cen and asked her to climb down first, and when she returned to the ground safely, he would use his strength to come down in a few jumps.
As soon as he returned to the ground, he immediately took Xia Cen and chased him in the direction where Yan Feng disappeared.
Xia Cen held the hunting knife, and as soon as a monkey approached, she swung at it.
Sure enough, it really wasn't her delusion.
No matter how many times the hunting knife was slashed at the monkey, the monkey was still unharmed.
"How so?" Xia Cen looked at the hunting knife in his hand, and he didn't understand.
This time, even Yan Feng and they saw it.
"Don't be in a daze," Yan Feng quickly approached her, and threw a moon scimitar to her, "You can try it again with this one."
After speaking, he rushed towards the red-eyed monkey king again.
If you don't kill the monkey king who takes the lead, there are so many of them, and if it goes on like this, there will be no end at all.
Yan Feng decided to use a killer move, simply not doing anything, not stopping, holding a sword in his left hand and a hammer in his right hand.
On the left, he slashes the monkey with a sword, and on the right, he aims at the head of the monkey king. There was a "bang".
The Monkey King suddenly stiffened all over, and a small black hole appeared in the center of the eyebrows on his forehead. The body also fell backwards.
All the monkeys were stunned. Seeing that his king had fallen, he could no longer care about the enemy, so he immediately returned to the king's side, carried the king with all hands and feet, and quickly fled from the spot.
A monkey farce has come to an end.
"Xia Cen, what the hell is going on?" After successfully driving away the monkey, Yan Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I don't know." Xia Cen shook his head helplessly.
"Yes, it's weird, when I tried the knife for you in the afternoon, the blade was still very sharp, why did it suddenly become dull?" Chen Yu was also puzzled.
"Even the moon scimitar I just gave you can't hurt anyone in the slightest?" Yan Feng asked again.
"Yes." Xia Cen smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Come, give me the hunting knife." Yan Feng walked over, took the hunting knife, and casually slashed at the monkey corpse on the ground, and as a result, the place where the corpse was cut by the blade immediately opened the flesh.
"Chen Yu, you can try it too." Yan Feng didn't say anything, and handed the knife directly to him.
"Okay." Chen Yu took the hunting knife and brewed it like a method, and the result was the same as Yan Feng.
"Oh, for you." Chen Yu had already guessed Yan Feng's intention in his heart, so he didn't need him to speak, he took the initiative to give the hunting knife in his hand to Xia Cen.
Xia Cen raised the hunting knife in his hand and swung it at the corpse. As a result, the corpse that was cut by the blade in her hand was unharmed, not even the slightest crack.
It's weird, the same tools, the same movements, it's normal for others to use them, but her situation is different from others, what the hell is going on?
"Obviously, the problem is with you, Xia Cen." Yan Feng said the reason.
"I understand that the problem is me, the point is, I didn't do anything at all, why did it suddenly become like this?" That's where she gets most confused.
"yes, I was fine yesterday, but why is it completely different today?" Chen Yu couldn't figure it out.
"yes....what is the reason for this?" Yan Feng lowered his head and fell into deep thought, and his brain began to turn.
"Ah, do you think it has something to do with the Devil's Crying Stone?" Chen Yu suddenly had an idea.
"Something to do with the Devil's Crying Stone? How so?" Xia Cen still didn't understand.
"Hehe, I don't know," Chen Yu grabbed his hair with a smile, "I just suddenly thought of these three words in my head."
"Well, it's not good, it's really possible," Yan Feng held his mouth with his hand, and the thoughts in his head were running rapidly, "Chen Yu, aren't all the Ghost Crying Stones we got concentrated in you?" Take it out and take a look."
"Okay, no problem." Chen Yu immediately took out three demon ghost cry stones from his backpack, and also took out the ghost cry stones on his body, and spread out his palms to show them. "Oh, all the Devil's Crying Stones on my body are here."
"Add mine, too." Yan Feng took out his Ghost Cry Stone from the inner pocket of his jacket and put it together with the Ghost Cry in Chen Yu's hand.
"And mine—" Xia Cen reached into his trouser pocket, and wanted to take out his Devil's Cry Stone, but unexpectedly, the pocket was empty, and there was nothing.
"No...... Really?" Xia Cen groped everywhere on his body, searching all over his body, but he didn't find his own ghost crying stone.
"Did you fall somewhere?" Chen Yu was inexplicably anxious.
".........," Xia Cen's mind went blank, "I really don't know, I don't remember when it fell at all."
"Ah...... Could it have fallen on a Japanese wooden house?" Yan Feng said in a shocking voice, "Didn't you fall there? I guess it fell back then, but you didn't notice it."
"Well, it's very likely." Xia Cen thought carefully in his mind.
"So, now it's because Xia Cen dropped her own Devil Cry Stone that she can't slash the demon?" Chen Yu finally understands now.
"Yes, I can't think of anything other than that." Yan Feng is also honest. "If you don't believe it, won't you try it?"
"No need to try, the evidence is ironclad, what else to try?" Chen Yu immediately refused, "Don't waste this kind of time, do you want to go back and get it?"
"Of course," Yan Feng nodded, "We must get Xia Cen's Devil Cry Stone back, without it, we would be in trouble."
"I can't believe things would come to this point." The doubts in Xia Cen's heart became even heavier. The Devil's Crying Stone that each carried on his body was not only the key to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Evils, but also had the function of killing enemies?
This discovery made her heart shake.
"Two, I'm sorry," Xia Cen's eyes were full of apologies, "I was too careless—."
"It's okay Xia Cen, the thing has been dropped, just look for it again," Yan Feng comforted her, "It's just that I never imagined that the Ghost Crying Stone that brought us into the Valley of Ten Thousand Evils still has this kind of function, it's really surprising."
"That's right, it's terrifying that you can't kill the demon without it," Chen Yu exhaled, "Fortunately, we found out early now, otherwise, when the time comes, we really don't even know how to die?"
"Chen Yu," Xia Cen was amused by his exaggerated expression, "You are so exaggerated~"
"No, no, no, it's not an exaggeration, I'm serious," and then he suddenly grinned, "But, it's good to have a smile."
"Well, thank you." Xia Cen smiled at him sincerely.
