Chapter 82: The Hunter and the Outlaw
Although An Youming's Soul Breaker Blade and the scythe in Death's hand are the same, they are different. The scythe of death harvests life, and An Youming's scythe is only for self-preservation, not for hurting others. Just like the sickle in the hands of the farmer to harvest rice, when there is danger, the only thing the farmer can do is to raise the sickle in his hand.
Wu Zhizai could not have imagined that the terrifying Death Scythe turned out to be just a tool used for production in the hands of farmers.
"And this black scythe, when wielded, can make the enemy fearful. Compared to knives and swords, it is much more effective. Just like the method of destroying the soul, it doesn't have any attack power, but the black qi all over the body looks weird and makes people feel terrified" An Youming continued: "So, I have been using the sickle. Wu Zhizai, do you want to use a knife or a sword?"
The black scythe appeared in front of Wu Zhizai, adding a strange color in this twilight. Wu Zhizai put the huge black scythe in my hand and waved it in the air at will. Although the blade is huge, it is very light and not cumbersome at all.
Wu Zhizai shook his head and said, "No, I like this black scythe very much. It's very domineering and very vicious. ”
Wu Zhizai seemed to be indifferent and said, "An Youming, your demon spirit is really powerful. When it comes to going it alone, almost no one is your opponent. The power of the other gods chooses the host because that host is strong enough. But I don't know why, I always feel that you inhabit me for a reason. ”
An Youming's eyes showed a faint surprise, and then he pretended to be crazy and stupid: "What can be the reason, it's not because you are strong." ”
After patrolling the ground, it is time to inspect the big tree they are going to perch on tonight, not the nest of some big bird.
"In terms of strength, the first god in the world ranks Liu Huaying second, and I don't think anyone dares to rank first. If you want to choose a strong person, why don't you choose him?"
Without waiting for An Youming to speak, Wu Zhizai said again: "Forget it, you don't want to say it, and I won't force you." I just hope that if there's anything I need to know, please tell me, so that I don't know how I'm going to die. ”
An Youming shook his hand, "Nothing, nothing." Don't worry, you'll be fine. Even if something happens to you, it won't be me who harms you. ”
"Well, I believe you. ”
If he could sweat, An Youming's forehead would definitely be dripping with sweat now. This Wu Zhizai is quite stupid most of the time, but sometimes he is quite smart.
Wu Zhizai flew up to the towering tree and inspected the entire tree from top to bottom, glad that there was no big bird's nest on the tree.
Wu Zhizai flew down from the air, and Su Xiaowen said: "Why did you go for so long, but what is the danger?"
Wu Zhizai said with a smile: "Brother Xiaowen, don't worry too much, if anything happens, I will definitely rush back as soon as possible and take you away, where will I go for so long." ”
In the past, Su Xiaowen kept vigil, but now it is Wu Zhizai's turn. I have to say that the vigil is really a painful thing. When everything is silent, people's tiredness will sweep over like the waves of the sea. After the two of them fell asleep, Wu Zhizai whispered: "An Youming, you come to keep vigil, and I sleep." ”
An Youming was not surprised by what Wu Zhizai thought in his heart, and said lazily: "I know, you go to sleep." ”
After living in the forest for a long time, sleeping at night has no effect. As long as An Youming is there, Wu Zhizai will feel at ease. Peace of mind makes sleep good.
When I woke up the next day, the morning light dispelled the fog in the forest and the darkness of the night.
When Lan Ruo came together, he immediately lit a fire and boiled hot water. Su Xiaowen was injured and wanted to drink some warm water and eat some warm dry food. Since her injuries were completely healed, she wanted to do more to make herself a useful person and not a burden. Although she knew that Wu Zhizai and Su Xiaowen didn't treat her as a burden, she still wanted to do more. Maybe it's because I don't want to feel uneasy in my heart.
After breakfast, the three of them set out on their way, walking very slowly. Wu Zhizai was thinking about things in his heart, and his brows furrowed unconsciously.
Seeing this, Su Xiaowen asked, "Xiaozai, what are you worried about?"
Wu Zhizai said what he was thinking, "I'm worried that the people of the Dharma Protector Temple will find the wolf spirit clan, and then Brother Ge Hu will be in danger." ”
Even if Wu Zhizai didn't say it, Su Xiaowen knew what Wu Zhizai was thinking. His heart became uneasy, "Are you going to attract the Dharma Protector Temple?"
Wu Zhizai nodded, not daring to look at Su Xiaowen. Lan Ruo knew the danger, but she also didn't want the wolf spirit clan to be caught up by the people of the Dharma Protector Temple on the way to migration.
"I know you're worried about them. But you know, they live in the forest all year round? The harsh living environment of the forest makes them extremely powerful. If the cultivation of ordinary people relies on secrets, the cultivation of the wolf spirit clan is trained by heaven and earth. The strength of the wolf spirit is unaware to outsiders. ”
Wu Zhizai shook his head, "No. I don't know how powerful the patriarch is, but I do know that among the young people of the wolf spirit clan, it is the most powerful brother Ge Go. But as powerful as Brother Ge Hu, he was still injured when facing a group of market hooligans. What's more, the next thing they have to face is the Dharma Protector Temple. ”
At this moment, in the woods ahead, they saw two groups of people confronting each other. A group of people with hideous faces and large knives in their hands, and blood dripping from them. There were seven of them in this group, all of whom were fierce and vicious. Looks like it's some outlaws. Committed a crime outside and ran to the forest to hide.
The other group consisted of five men, each with a bow and arrow in his hand and a short knife pinned to his waist. This is the dress of a hunter, with a bow and arrows to hunt. Sometimes they don't have much prey, so they stay in the forest overnight. This short knife is a tool knife to break the skin and cut the flesh, of course, if you encounter danger and fight with the fierce beasts in the forest, this short knife is also a weapon.
One of the five hunters was injured with his right hand covering his left shoulder. The left hand hangs down weakly, and the bow in the hand swings gently between the five weak fingers of the left hand, and if there is a slight collision, the bow will fall.
Su Xiaowen said: "Xiao Zai, let's leave quietly from the other side." ”
Wu Zhizai said: "No, the people of the Dharma Protector Temple guessed that we would go south, and they must be searching on the way to the south now." They know that we follow the Wolf Spirits, so they will search for the Wolf Spirits. I originally wanted to go to a certain city and make some noise in the city, so that the people of the Dharma Protector Temple would no longer track down the wolf spirits. It's better now that you don't have to go to the city. Here, by the way, do a good deed. ”
Su Xiaowen knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to give up. He saw two groups of people not far away, and said, "How do you know who is the good and who is the bad?" Don't you think that those who look fierce and evil are the wicked, and those who hold the bow are the good ones?"
Wu Zhizai nodded, and Su Xiaowen said: "Xiaozai, you may not know that when the yamen arrests people, they will be so vicious. ”
Wu Zhizai was stunned. Yes, no one should be a disfigurer. How can you think that because of their fierce appearance, they are evil? Some people have a fierce face, but this fierce appearance is not born from the heart, but by nature.
Although Su Xiaowen thought so, when he saw the appearance of those seven people, he also thought in his heart that they were a group of outlaws, and he didn't know how many lives they carried.
Su Xiaowen said: "Seven against five, but only hurt the other party." It seems that the strength of those five hunters is not weak, and those seven reckless men cannot defeat them in a short time. But now it's seven against four, and the winning side is a little bigger. ”
Su Xiaowen looked behind the hunter and found that there were two or three dead animals behind the hunter, and he vaguely guessed why they were facing each other.
It is likely that those seven people were a group of outlaws who fled into the forest to escape the government. When I met a hunter hunting in the forest, I saw the prey in their hands, and I immediately became ill-willed. After all, they are not hunters, and it is not easy to survive in the forest. So they struck the hunter's idea, and wanted to take the prey in their hands.
"Xiao Zai, what are you going to do?"
Wu Zhizai said: "It's very simple, grab a little from each side and let them bring the news out." ”
Su Xiaowen's eyes showed fear, and his breathing was a little short, "Then what happens next? This time, what we have to face is probably not as simple as a Dharma Protector Temple." Even if the wolf spirit clan is here, it may not be able to save us this time. ”
Wu Zhizai said: "Brother Xiaowen, I know the worries in your heart. However, we have to do this, and I can't put them in danger. ”
Su Xiaowen has no objection to this. He looked at Wu Zhizai, his eyes were sharp, and his voice was hoarse, "Xiao Zai, promise me one thing." The next time you meet the people of the Dharma Protector Temple, you must kill them without the slightest mercy. Even if we kill all the people in the six Dharma Protector Temples of the Qiyang Dynasty, we will still live. ”
Knowing that he might kill someone in the future, Wu Zhizai was not afraid, uneasy, or guilty at this time. He was shocked in his heart, would he also become the kind of powerful man he hated who regarded life as a mustard? If this was the price of living, Wu Zhizai had nothing to say.
"Brother Xiaowen, I promise you. The next time I encounter someone from the Dharma Protector Temple, I will definitely kill them, and I will not be merciful to them again. ”
Wu Zhizai actually knew in his heart for a long time that in this world, in the face of enemies, kindness is useless. His kindness will only put him, Su Xiaowen and Lan Ruo in danger. But he couldn't let a life slip out of his hands. Now, after almost dying, he suddenly figured it out. In this world, the strong are respected, and the law of nature is followed. Then why should he show mercy to his enemies? Kindness, let's leave it to the kind people.
Faced with this answer, Su Xiaowen was very satisfied, "Xiaozai, I hope you can do it." Your kindness should not be used on those enemies, you should leave it to the people around you, and those good people who are as kind as you. ”
Wu Zhizai said: "Well, I know. Sister Lan Ruo, you help Brother Xiaowen to the side to rest. Don't worry, I'm fine. ”
The group of fierce and vicious people were ready to move, their eyes were fierce, like wild beasts, and they wanted to swallow the five people on the opposite side alive.
The five hunters did not want to leave there, they had been in the mountains for almost five days, and although they had hunted some small animals before, they had used them to satisfy their hunger, and finally they had found a deer and a leopard. The leopard's flower skin is beautiful and can be sold for a good price. They can't just give up, it's almost winter, and they have to save some money.
The two sides were communicating, and because the distance was too far, Wu Zhizai didn't know what they were talking about. One of the leaders of the seven-person gang suddenly spat on the ground, and the big knife wrapped around the spiritual law, and took the lead in attacking, and the six people behind him followed. The five hunters could only fight, and even the wounded hunter had to throw his bow aside and draw his short knife to join the battle.
