In a wilderness not far from Stone Town, there were more than a dozen people standing scattered, all of them sturdy men with meaty faces and dressed in sackcloth. All of them have heavy faces and serious expressions.

A man with a scar on his face clenched his hands into fists and said in a deep voice to Lin Hu at the front of the crowd: "Report to the hall master, the two deputy hall masters and the ten brothers have all been found, but... It's just that there isn't a whole corpse. ”

Lin Hu suddenly clenched his fists, and the green tendons on his forehead burst.

Liu Ying, who was standing next to Lin Hu, had a gloomy face and asked, "How did you die?"

The man with the scar was a little frightened, and replied in a trembling voice: "All of them were killed by a knife, and their heads were moved to death." I looked closely, and I couldn't see even a single scrap of flesh on the broken neck, and the wounds of the brothers were arranged together so that they could be connected, as if..."He seemed to be in disbelief, a little hesitant, but still said: "It's like the brothers were all slashed on the neck, but it's unlikely..."

Lin Hu took a deep breath and tried his best to calm the emotions in his heart.

Although Liu Ying had already reminded him, he also knew that now was definitely not the time to regret it, so he took a step forward and asked loudly: "Hall Master, what should I do now." ”

Lin Hu narrowed his eyes slightly, suppressed the anger in his heart, and slowly said to Liu Ying: "Bury the brothers alive, send some money to those who have family members, and write down the names of those who don't have family members and send them to me." ”

Liu Ying nodded.

Lin Hu turned around, his voice trembling a little, "Liu Junshi, do you know who the two people who are taking the lead?"

Liu Ying's face was full of embarrassment when he heard this, and he didn't know how to answer.

A sudden angry shout: "Say!"

Liu Ying had no choice but to explain: "Dong Fu, a monk who has been in the Four Realms for five years, is proficient in sword techniques, has infinite strength, and is a good hand in close combat. Zhang Bin, although he has only been in the Four Realms for half a year, he has already refined a rather good fire five elements thing, and his attack power is extremely great, and he is the strongest person in Zilin Hall except for the hall master. Both of them have made great contributions to the entire Zilin Hall. ”

Lin Hu's expression became even more gloomy, but he quickly turned into a dejected face, "Let these two people be killed with a knife without even having room to fight back, Master Liu, do you think a monk of the Six Realms can do it?"

Without waiting for Liu Ying to answer, Lin Hu replied to himself: "Even the peak of the Six Realms is absolutely impossible, and the person who makes the move is at least a Seven Realm cultivator, or even the peak of the Seven Realms." ”

Lin Hu suddenly sneered: "Against such a number one person, I, Zilintang, don't even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder." You say, do you know this man's heels?"

Liu Ying was terrified in his heart, lowered his head slightly, and replied weakly: "Hall Master, it is imperative to hurry up and report to the above." This person is definitely not something we can provoke, what to do next, it depends on what those masters think. ”

Lin Hu's face flashed with gloom.

I have been in the gang since I was sixteen years old, desperately at the front, eating meat at the back, and it took more than ten years to get some improvement. The Zilin Hall that he created by himself has also occupied here for twenty years, and it looks majestic and unhappy, but for those who are in high power, what difference does it make if they follow and call to death, and wave their hands to death when they are bored?

The prince will have a kind of Xiangning, which is your M's bullshit.

Lin Hu walked forward silently, "Master Liu, you summarize the situation here and report it to the above." Do what you have to do..."

Liu Ying quietly looked at Lin Hu who was walking forward, full of twilight aura, sympathetic, and sighed.

——————

The battlefield in the lower reaches of the Hengfu River was completely locked by Wei Cheng with his sword intent, and the immortal did not pay attention to it. So much so that Ye Fan and the others walked for a long time and never heard the sound of battle.

The boy looked back, his face worried.

Li Qingfeng patted Ye Fan's shoulder and comforted him: "Brother Ye Fan, don't worry. Brother Wei's temperament is not like a person with an enemy, even if there is an estimate, it is a woman who has been harmed by him before, and he came to ask for justice, and he decided to avoid us for fear of being seen, and we will have more sisters-in-law when we come back later. ”

Ye Fan showed a slight smile at this time, and he no longer kept a bitter face.

Li Jin said: "If you go a little further, you will be able to reach Qiao Lao'er Ferry." We can rest there for a while, just wait...."

Li Jin seemed to be choked by the neck, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Ye Fan turned his head to look in the direction Li Jin was looking at, and he was terrified.

On the bank of the Hengfu River, a huge golden head like a buffalo was revealed, which slowly lifted from the stone pile, and finally the whole body swam out of the river and appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

A pair of bewitching silver eyes, a scarlet tongue that keeps spitting out and retracting, is half the size of a human.

This golden python, which could not be bigger, slowly moved its whole body to the stone pile on the shore, and its body was covered with large scales, and the sun shone on it, shining.

It's just that this giant python doesn't seem to have any malice, but it is not far from everyone, its eyes are like children, and it looks at Ye Fan and his party curiously, as if it is rare to see this group of strange creatures.

Li Mingyue grabbed Ye Fan's arm tightly and kept trembling. Li Qingfeng didn't dare to make too many movements, but instinctively stepped back little by little. Li Jin pressed his palm against the hilt of the knife and was ready for battle, but he knew that he had no chance of surviving against this giant python.

Ye Fan gently held the little girl's hand, which was already extremely cold, and then said softly to a few people: "Don't panic, slowly retreat back, don't move too much." If you see any hostility on it, run away without the slightest hesitation. ”

The Li father and son thought for a moment, and they both whispered "um".

The young man lowered his head and smiled brightly at the little girl: "Xiao Mingyue, follow me in a while, and slowly retreat." Don't be afraid, Big Brother is always there. ”

Li Mingyue held Ye Fan's hand tightly and nodded bravely.

The group faced the giant python and slowly retreated behind them.

When the golden python saw that everyone had moved, it slowly straightened up and raised its head, revealing a pair of small claws on its abdomen, which was actually a four-clawed python that was about to go to the river.

Ye Fan stared at the front, and suddenly saw the scales on the giant python's abdomen that were lighter than the surrounding ones, and his face was full of surprise.

"Little snake, is that you?!"

The giant python tilted its head when it heard the shout, as if it was thinking about something, and then looked at the young man carefully, and suddenly remembered, with a strong body, it went straight to Ye Fan.

The three members of the Li family were terrified, and Li Mingyue was even more frightened that her little face turned a little white. It's just that the giant python kept shrinking in size on the way to Ye Fan, until it was only about a zhang, and it came to the young man and stuck out his tongue and sniffed it, and after confirming it, he rubbed his head affectionately against the young man's chest.

Ye Fan took a few breaths, calmed down his excitement, and reached out and touched the little snake's head. Li Qingfeng was shocked, but his mood was still okay, and he took the lead in asking with a slight trembling: "Brother Ye Fan, this... This is.. ？”

The young man opened his mouth and smiled: "Hmm.... It counts.. My friend..."

Li Qingfeng was a little shocked, why did Ye Fan become friends with a giant python?

The little girl looked at the little snake's affectionate appearance towards Ye Fan, and she was not very afraid. After seeing it, I felt that this little snake was really cute, and asked timidly: "Big brother, I..." I can.. Can I touch him?"

Ye Fan was a little surprised, thought for a moment, and still asked the little snake: "Little snake, they are all my friends." This little girl's name is Li Mingyue, I like you very much, I want me to help ask, can she touch you?"

The little snake could already understand human language, and when he heard the words, he looked at Li Mingyue, and moved his body to the side, and actually lowered his head directly on the palm of the little girl's hand.

Seeing this, Li Mingyue boldly opened her hand and touched it gently, feeling that this little snake felt really good. Seeing that the girl withdrew her palm, the little snake stood up slightly straight, and actually squinted and rubbed directly against the little girl's cheek, which made Li Mingyue laugh.

Li Jin couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw the little snake suddenly rushing towards Li Mingyue, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

Li Qingfeng looked at the picture in front of him, knowing that there were some things that he couldn't ask casually, but he really couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, plus he had some friendship with Ye Fan, and the heavens and men were at war, so he still asked directly: "Brother Ye Fan, how are you... How did you become friends with Brother Snake?"

Ye Fan looked at Li Qingfeng, who was a little restrained, and said with a smile: "As far as I know, the little snake should be a mother, and your title as a snake brother is not very ingenious." ”

Then he said: "When I was in my hometown of Yanming Town, she was injured and slept in my arms for a few days, so she knew each other. ”

Li Jin was still a person who had been mixed with him for many years, and his mind gradually stabilized, and he said: "Since it is a false alarm, let's hurry as soon as possible." Ye Fan, I don't know if your friend wants to go on the road with us, or what?"

When Li Jin said the latter, his tone was a little strange.

The young man didn't hear it, but leaned over to the little snake and asked, "Little snake, we still have to hurry up and cross the river at the ferry in front." If you have something to do, you can go first, you can go with us for a while, what do you think?"

The little snake thought slightly when he heard this, and then the tip of his tongue moved lightly, and the words of the little snake appeared in Ye Fan's mind, "I was going to go ashore to bask in the sun before, but there were two very powerful people fighting in front of me, and I was afraid that I would be affected, so I quickly swam to the Hengfu River." I didn't expect to meet you, I happened to be fine, so I'll walk with you for a while. And you have a very nice smell on you, and you can't stop every time you take two puffs, and I've never smelled it on anyone else. ”

When Ye Fan heard this, his face was anxious, and he hurriedly asked, "What are the two people who are fighting like, and what is the situation?"

The little snake said again, "One is a man with a knife, and the other is a colossus of great size, and when I am the largest, it is as thick as his arm." The fight between them was so intense, I didn't dare to stay long, and I don't know what happened next. ”

When the young man heard this, his face turned to a few people and said, "No, I have to go back and see, Brother Qingfeng, Uncle Li, you take Mingyue and Little Snake to the ferry first." I'll look for Wei Cheng, whether I can find it or not, I'll go back before the time, you guys hurry up and go first. ”

Li Qingfeng was also worried, but he didn't say anything to dissuade him, but just reminded: "Be careful, come back quickly if you find someone." ”

Ye Fan patted Li Qingfeng on the shoulder, waved his hand to a few people, and then ran towards the lower reaches of the Hengfu River.

Wei Cheng, wait for me.

You must not have an accident.
