Chapter 248: Extraneous Branches

But Bai Ya knows that things may not be so simple.

As soon as Luo Xiu left, only the two of them were left in the secret room in the building, and the Immortal Venerable did not mean to continue the conversation, but began to drink by himself.

The Immortal Venerable, who usually doesn't drink a drop of alcohol, began to pour wine continuously unusually, Bai Li opened his mouth several times to speak, and swallowed back the words when he reached his mouth. The Immortal Venerable was as if he hadn't seen this, which made Bai Ya even more worried.

The same is true of Luo Xiu, who turned out the window.

Walking in the night at this time, everything in front of me becomes too ordinary. If it was in the past, Luo Xiu would not have taken it to heart, but at the moment, he had to guard against it. Because there seemed to be some "private words" mixed in the words of the Immortal Venerable.

Regardless of the sword marks on Hades Zun's body, although they have not been clarified, anyone with a foundation in martial arts knows that this is by no means an ordinary fight, but a fight of life and death.

It's just that it's inconspicuous when it's exposed, and Hades Venerable doesn't intend to mention it, so he didn't take it to heart at the time. But Luo Xiu's mind suddenly flashed the scene from many years ago, and he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

He knew a lot about the martial arts cultivation of the Immortal Venerable, and although he didn't act with him, he had heard too many legends about him from the owner of the Lone Xiao Village.

I remember that there is such an incident that Luo Xiu has not forgotten to this day.

It was a snowy night, obscuring the sky and the moon. The 100 dead soldiers of Lone Whistling Heights went to Jianghuaiyuan to ambush and kill a Jianghu sect to clear the way. But they were supposed to return as scheduled, but they were never heard from.

The owner of Guxiao Village knew that there was a change, but he didn't dare to send someone there rashly. One is that the situation is unclear, and if you send someone again, you will inevitably be sent to death. The second is that these dead soldiers are not easy to cultivate, and if they are damaged, they may shake the foundation of Lonely Howling Heights.

Just as he was hesitating, the Immortal Venerable pushed the door in, holding the head of the head of the Jianghu sect in his hand. Xu came overnight, and there was still blood dripping from the broken skull, and even the icy and snowy weather failed to freeze the broken wound.

The owner of the Lonely Xiao Village just stared at the Immortal Venerable and didn't say a word.

Hades threw the head forward, leaving a sentence, "Everything that gets in the way has been solved, and these little things are not worth worrying about in the future." ”

After saying that, he turned and pushed the door open, and disappeared into the snowy night.

Later, according to the report of the spies, at that time, the dead soldiers of Guxiao Villa were ambushed and killed, but for some reason the news leaked in advance, and they were ambushed by the Jianghu sect, and they suffered heavy casualties.

Just when the Jianghu Sect cut off the head of the last dead soldier, a person walked slowly in the wind and snow, and only said, "Your time has come." ”

One person faced hundreds of people, and he could still speak so loudly, which made the gangs of the Jianghu sect who were already red-eyed at that time laugh sarcastically. But before the laughter had dissipated, the person who came had already taken off the head of the sect and held it in his hand.

It is rumored that three were scared to death on the spot, and some of them fell to the ground with weak legs. The rest looked at each other and retreated again and again. Because they didn't see this man make a move, but the head of the head of the head was already in the hands of this man.

The wide-glazed eyes seemed to speak of disbelief and reluctance, and there was blood dripping from the fracture, dripping into the snow, melting the snow.

After that, there was a tricky matter in the Lone Roaring Heights, so he went from Hades to return alone, and never missed. The rivers and lakes gradually have the fierce name of the Underworld, "The Venerable of the Underworld, there is death but no life." ”

Luo Xiu's mind began to appear again the scene of being intercepted and killed by Mingyue Tower many years ago.

Those Mingyue Lou fierce hands, only the man in white gave people a sense of oppression that no one should enter, and the killing was in the slightest. Although I didn't see it make a move, it was already so powerful at that time, and it must be even more difficult now.

In this way, the Immortal Venerable must have made a move with the one in Mingyue Tower, and he also suffered a loss.

Luo Xiu shook his head with a wry smile, reached out and felt the wine gourd on his waist, and raised his head to pour a sip of wine. When I was about to walk to the north gate, I found that the place that was supposed to be the city guard was full of red-armored soldiers, and somehow.

This group of red-armored soldiers was in good order, looking around, guarding against the dormant "ghosts" in the night.

It just so happened that Luo Xiu was one of them.

But at this time, there was no time to continue to delay, Luo Xiu had a plan, and after looking left and right, he didn't find anything useful. I could only pick up a piece of duan wood under my feet, fold it into three sections, and throw it in three directions.

With the sudden sound of three places, the group of red armor began to search in three ways, Luo Xiu carefully hidden, and finally moved to the side of the city gate.

But there were still four people in Chijia, and they didn't move a single step. Luo Xiu was so anxious at this time that he had no choice but to break through.

For some reason, the north gate was not closed as usual, but there was a gap between the two sides, giving Luo Xiu a chance to take advantage of.

At this moment, a sudden explosion was heard from out of nowhere in the city, and the four red-armored soldiers hurriedly turned their heads to look. Luo Xiu was overjoyed in his heart, and he got up under his feet and went straight to the north city gate.

This sudden change caught the four of them off guard. The man who appeared out of thin air did not have any intention of entanglement, but just moved towards the city gate with lightning speed, and his body was like a ghost.

By the time Luo Xiu ran out of the north city gate, the four red armors were beyond their reach.

When the three teams of red-armored soldiers returned, the two sides understood that the tiger was leaving the mountain, but the explosion made them suspicious. The leader whispered, "A few of you stay here, and the rest will follow me to find out." If the dawn does not return, you will take the arrow as a letter and inform the commander that there is a change here. ”

Everyone nodded yes, and there was a hint of determination in their eyes. It seems that in this Luoyang City, that thrilling battle has already begun to be staged.

Besides, when Narosius came out of the north gate, he heard the neighing of horses, and went away. Sure enough, I saw a horse with the reins on it, pacing idly. Luo Xiu was overjoyed, immediately turned over his horse, slapped it with his backhand, and ran towards the famous mountain thirty miles outside the city.

was ridden away by Luo Xiu on horseback, and the one of them hurriedly ran out of the haystack, still dragging the untied trouser belt in his hand, and scolded and scolded, "You should suffer a thousand cuts, don't let Lao Tzu find you." ”

The man looked like a young man, dressed in a strong suit, with a pitch-black spear on his body, and it was Leng Wanzhang who rushed from Huaiyou Mansion to the capital Luoyang.

However, it was said that after Kang Junli rescued a few people from Qingxia Town, he was placed in Huaiyou Mansion to recuperate. Leng Wanzhang admired Kang Jun's prestige, so he enlisted in the army on the grounds of his previous verbal agreement.

After more than a month, I received an urgent report, which said, "Luoyang is in an emergency, come to reinforcements quickly."

Kang Junli thought about it for a while, thinking that he couldn't tear his face with Houtang at this time, so he sent a team of advance to explore the truth. But the monk and Chixin were also worried about the safety of the awakening, Liu Qingmei and Liu Youqiao also had their own thoughts, so they let Leng Wanzhang accompany him and "by the way" to give a word.

Unexpectedly, all the way, all the way to mourn all over the wilderness, everywhere is already the smoke of war.

The secession of feudal towns in various places has begun to blatantly burn, kill and loot, and there is no mercy for their "uninvited guests". Therefore, waiting for the approaching capital Luoyang, I have already gone to seven, seven, eight, eight.

The advance soldiers hurried to the capital, and Leng Wanzhang found a convenient place outside the city because of internal urgency, and unexpectedly the scene just now.

It was only when he stepped out of the bushes and walked towards the city gate that he smelled a hint of danger.

The gate, which was supposed to be closed, opened a gap for two people to pass side by side, and the torches on the head of the city were blazing, but there were no city defense patrols. What's even more strange is that the city is silent, and even the sound of gongs disappearing.

There was no time to recover the horses, so Leng Wanzhang could only go into the woods again and wait and see what happened.

The soldiers who took the lead had been captured by the group of red armor at this time, and it is unknown why they did not do so. But the connection between Leng Wanzhang and several of them has been severed, making the situation even more confusing.

However, it was said that Luo Xiu grabbed the horse and galloped wildly, rushed to the foot of Yangming Mountain when the sky was about to dawn, and after jumping off the horse, he hurried to a trailhead under the mountain, frowning.

With his many years of experience, how could he not know the poisonous mist miasma here, but the words of the Immortal Venerable were conclusive, and he had to believe it. At this time, the few people who had already taken the first step into the miasma did not have an easy walk.

Mo Ye followed his previous memories and walked to the cave where he had captured the gwarf at that time, hoping to gain something. Although the latter few people did not have expressions, everyone had a plan in their hearts.

The five of them walked out of the hidden path and came to the cave, which was empty at this time, but there was a strong smell of blood, which lasted for a long time.

Mo Ye strode in, raising his hand to signal the rest of the people to wait outside the cave. He looked around and searched carefully, and all the artifacts left by the dwarf had disappeared.

But in the deepest part of the cave, there is another deep pool, steaming, and there are many tree monkey corpses around it, which is hideous and terrifying.

Mo Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, and was about to turn around and go out, when he suddenly felt a gust of wind rushing straight to the door, and his heart sank, and he involuntarily blurted out, "There is a change here." ”

Hearing this, Jia Hongdao put Gu Xing down and handed it to Ling Ling, and rushed in with a brisk step. At this time, I can't care about whether there is fraud or not, if Mo Ye is folded inside, none of them can escape.

Before Jia Hongdao arrived, Mo Ye had already pulled out the "Broken Star Heng" to meet him, only to hear a strange cry mixed with the yin wind, and pounced towards Mo Ye.

Mo Ye hooked the "Broken Star Heng" in his hand, and the person who came sighed, his body froze in mid-air for a moment, and immediately swept backwards.

At this time, Jia Hongdao had come to the front, took out the fire fold from his arms, blew it and threw it forward. I saw a short, tree-like monster looking at the two of them not far away, and it seemed that the blow just now was made by this beast.

The faces of the two sank like water, and they didn't speak, but it was the monster who spoke first, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I can wait until this day, there is no endless road." ”

Mo Ye already understood what was going on in his heart, but Jia Hongdao was confused, and unconsciously asked, "Brother, what is this thing?" ”

Mo Ye was like a great enemy, and he clearly felt that his martial arts cultivation was not weaker than his own with the blow just now, but in this short period of time, why was the rickety dwarf who had been seriously injured before able to recover so quickly and still improve?

But judging from the monster's gnashing of teeth, it must be the previous "old acquaintance", but I don't know why it became the appearance of this half-human and half-monkey.

Mo Ye thought about it for a while, lowered his voice and said to Jia Hongdao: "Brother Jia, don't be impatient, this person is an outsider who cultivates evil skills, don't take it lightly." ”

I don't know why this was heard by the half-human, half-monster thing, only to see him sneer and say, "Isn't it thanks to you and that kid?" If it weren't for you, how would I be like this? ”

Mo Ye's heart sank, and he secretly complained to himself, "Why didn't you end up with this demon in the first place?" Otherwise, there would be no such trouble! ”

The monster seemed to see through Mo Ye's thoughts, and sneered, "Why, I was unwilling to kill me in the first place? It's okay, now you send it to the door yourself, and when the result is for you, then go find that kid and pull him off. ”

When the monster finished speaking, it pounced on it with a strange scream.
