Chapter 24: Pretending to be Weak
There was a roar from the woods, and a golden-spotted demon leopard slowly stepped out of the grass, about the size of three strong men, with a cluster of red flames on its tail.
"I'll leave this to me. Just so I can practice my hands. Seeing the demon leopard, Xu Zhilan was not only not afraid, but was eager to try.
With a smile on his lips, he stepped aside.
But he didn't forget to point out Xu Zhilan in his mouth, and said: "The main attack methods of this demon leopard are not only pounced, scratched, torn, bitten, but the most important thing is the cluster of flames at the tail, which will burst out of the fire from time to time, this thing is very smart." ”
Xu Zhilan listened carefully and nodded from time to time: "Okay, I see." ”
While the two of them were talking, the demon leopard was already looking Xu Zhilan up and down, estimating the strength of the human in front of him, but although it was a little smart, it was still a beast in the end.
Seeing that the tall man stood to the side, only a slender woman stood opposite it, the beast also looked at Xu Zhilan, roared, first took a few steps back, and then flew away, and rushed Xu Zhilan to pounce.
"Zhilan Sword!" Accompanied by Xu Zhilan Qingyue's voice, a golden light flashed, and the Zhilan sword came out of its sheath in response, and in an instant, the human sword was united, and all of them turned into a white shadow and golden light, entangled with the demon leopard.
The demon leopard roared, the tail continued to twitch rapidly, throwing out flames, and the stars fell on Xu Zhilan's body, Xu Zhilan first used the Zhilan Sword to resist for a while, and then his heart moved, somehow a string of characters blurted out, and the Zhilan Sword turned into a formation on the ground with the password.
After Xu Zhilan's talisman was recited, the pattern on the ground emitted a strong golden light, and the demon leopard roared angrily, and when he wanted to pounce on Xu Zhilan again, he was blocked in mid-air, as if he had hit a transparent wall.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Yu Hui was surprised at a glance, and at the same time, there was deep worry in his eyes......
Xu Zhilan didn't see these changes in Yu Huo's eyes, and she was taken aback when she saw that the effect of this formation was so outstanding.
"Yu Huiyi, this ...... Do you know what this array is? ”
Yu Huiyi's expression at this moment had returned to normal, looked at Xu Zhilan, nodded, and said, "I know." It's a solid formation. ”
The Guyuan formation is also an ancient formation, but it doesn't require much spiritual power, but the drawing method is complex, and the fluency required is relatively high, and when just Xu Zhilan drew it, it was extremely smooth, as if it had been done thousands of times.
Xu Zhilan was confused, no matter what, he had never even heard of this name.
Turning around, the Zhilan Sword slashed at the main artery of the demon leopard's neck, the blood stained its beautiful fur red, and the demon leopard fell to the ground, twitching unwillingly.
After taking the spirit core, Yu Huiyi followed Xu Zhilan and continued to hurry. The demonic beasts encountered along the way were all solved by Xu Zhilan one by one, and in addition to the demonic beasts, there were also some scattered adventurer squads, chasing them after her and Yu Huiyi for the sake of bounties.
These adventurer squads are either sporadic in number or infighting, and they are all rabble with insufficient strength, and Yu Hui handed them over to Xu Zhilan to solve as soon as he saw it. He was on the side with intimate guidance and taught Xu Zhilan some practical practical skills.
Although Xu Zhilan has just entered the spirit stage, with Yu Chengyi by his side, it is not a problem to repel the low-level adventurer team. Within a few days, the two repelled several waves of adventurer squads, and Xu Zhilan's actual combat ability was greatly improved.
"These people, like bugs, are everywhere, and they don't know if it's endless. I'm bored to death, and if there is a strong one, I can still be a little interested. Xu Zhilan wiped the blood remaining on the Zhilan Sword while complaining to Yu Huiyi.
"You're more experienced than before, but it's still hard to fight alone against a strong team of adventurers. If you don't get it right, you will have to worry about your life, so it's better not to be rash. ”
Xu Zhilan choked and looked at Yu Huiyi's serious face speechlessly.
She was just joking, but she didn't expect Yu Hui to be so serious: "I'm just joking, you take it too seriously......"
Who would have expected that Yu Huiyi suddenly looked at Xu Zhilan's eyes more intently, and said, "It's about your safety, and there is no joke in my place." ”
Xu Zhilan looked at Yu Huiyi's serious eyes, and suddenly his heart moved, and he quickly changed the topic and said, "The sun is about to set, let's find a place to prepare for rest." ”
Yu Huiyi and Xu Zhilan couldn't find a fixed hiding place, so they could only spend the night in the trees, and that's how they came these days.
Xu Zhilan used the medicinal powder he found from the adventurer he had killed before to prevent insects and snakes, first took out the powder from the bag on his waist, and then sprinkled it around himself and Yu Huiyi.
"That's enough."
Yu Huo looked at it, and the surrounding circle had been scattered, nodded, and said, "It's okay." ”
Xu Zhilan blushed slightly, leaning on the arms of Yu Huiyi behind him, the night was deep and heavy, sometimes Xu Zhilan slept until the middle of the night and felt cold, he would subconsciously look for a source of warmth, and then he would wake up in Yu Huoyi's arms the next day.
After doing this a few times, Xu Zhilan simply didn't twist and pinch, and every time he leaned directly into Yu Huiyi's arms before going to bed.
Under the bright moonlight, on the thick branches, cast on the ground are two figures snuggling up to each other.
It's quiet.
After walking in the misty forest like this for a few days, Xu Zhilan and Yu Huiyi had already walked to the place where they were almost close to the center of the misty forest, and the whole journey was nearly halfway there.
"In five days at most, we'll be able to make it through the Misty Forest."
Sitting on a camphor tree about the thickness of an adult man's waist, Xu Zhilan looked not far away, and now on this tree, the edge of the misty forest could be faintly seen.
On the other side, in the Adventurer's Guild.
In the center of the hall was a shimmering blue fluorescent water screen with the names of all the adventurer squads registered with the guild. According to the strength of the strength, a real-time ranking is carried out on it, the background is formed by the water element gathered together, and these names, the small characters are red, and the fire element is used.
In front of the water screen, there was a square-faced man, who was the man who was let go that day.
Looking at the red letter flashing in the fifth place, an intriguing smile gradually appeared on the corner of the square-faced man's mouth.
"Hehe, even the Five Elements Adventure Team has set out to find you, my brother's great revenge is finally going to be avenged......" looked up to the sky and laughed for a while, and the people around him looked at him with strange eyes, but he didn't care at all.
