Chapter 277: First Encounter with the Enemy
Murderous and cold.
Unexpectedly, without concealing it at all, the person who came already knew that Liu Xi and the others had been poisoned and could not get out, so they were not afraid of exposing their traces, so that they could escape.
Thinking about it like this, when Liu Xi was picking up firewood before, the faint aura fluctuation he felt was this wave of people, and Dugu Qiufeng, who was hunting wild meat at that time, was also reporting to the other party.
Liu Xi still closed his eyes silently, judging from the fluctuations of the aura, the opposite side was led by the two peak realm grandmasters.
The primary target of the people who came was Ma Xiu, so Liu Xi's cultivation was probably not inquired about by them, and Ma Xiu's breakthrough to the grandmaster was also something that had not been passed on.
It's poisoning again, and it's two peak grandmasters, it seems that some people really don't want Ma Xiu to walk out of Shushan.
Liu Xi didn't move, and Xiao Wu, who wasn't far away, naturally didn't move, still closing his eyes, but the green steel sword in his hand raised the scabbard slightly, and the sharp sword qi suddenly poured out.
"Oh no, someone's coming!"
The sleeping horse embroidered a spirit, and jumped up from the ground suddenly, "Yusheng, Brother Xiaowu, the situation is not right, quickly change to another place with me!" ”
Seeing that Liu Xi and Xiao Wu didn't answer, Ma Xiu couldn't help but feel a little anxious, "Yusheng, Yusheng!" ”
"Your Highness, don't waste your efforts, how can a dead man talk to a living person?"
Dugu Qiufeng, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly stood up and said quietly, the corners of his mouth were full of pride.
Hearing this, Ma Xiu's heart suddenly tightened, and his eyes suddenly opened, "Dugu Qiufeng, what are you talking about!" ”
Seeing Ma Xiu's appearance, the smile on Dugu Qiufeng's face became more and more intense, and he kicked the water bag at his feet, "That is, you have a big life, and you don't want to drink this water bag, otherwise you won't need the Tianzun to do it." ”
The teeth clucked, and Ma Xiu's face was a little hideous, "Dugu Qiufeng, I, Ma Jin, look at your brother today, why do you want to do this!" ”
"Hahaha!"
As if hearing something extremely funny, Dugu Qiufeng looked up to the sky and smiled, and then stared at Ma Xiu with hatred, "Brother? You are a high prince, and I am just an ordinary courtier, even if I am very intelligent, I am only a foil by your side. But at that time, I didn't complain, because you did treat me well, and I often thought that when you become the emperor in the future, maybe let me be a feudal official. But you are unwilling to accept the throne that everyone in the world dreams of, and you are willing to run away to be a lowly commoner elsewhere, so who will repay me for the hard work I have followed for many years? ”
Speaking of this, Dugu Qiufeng's face was full of unwillingness and resentment, but soon, he showed a relieved look, "Fortunately, the eldest prince doesn't care about my relationship with you, and gives me the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, so that I have the opportunity to enjoy glory and wealth again. Now I will send you back to the West, and I will be reincarnated in the next life, and I will definitely fulfill your wish in this life. ”
These words made Ma Xiu's heart feel as if it had been dug by a knife, and the pain was unbearable, not only because he was betrayed by someone he trusted, but more often than not, the mercenary villain in front of him harmed Liu Xi and Xiao Wu.
"Shameless!"
Like a roaring angry lion, Ma Xiu, who was completely enraged, roared in a low voice, and immediately pounced on him, wanting to take Dugu Qiufeng's life.
There was a huge disparity in the strength of the two, so Dugu Qiufeng, who was secretly proud before, immediately turned pale, and involuntarily stepped back, wanting to dodge Ma Xiu's menacing punch.
"Bang!"
In a panic, Dugu Qiufeng slammed into the ancient tree behind him, and then he knew that there was no way back, and his heart was raised to his throat, and white hair sweat came out instantly.
The whistling fist stopped a foot in front of Dugu Qiufeng's door.
Ma Xiu's scarlet eyes revealed a sense of struggle, his fists rattled, but finally let go, "You get out of here, don't let me see you again!" ”
This scene was seen by Liu Xi, who pretended to be poisoned, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, Ma Xiu, who has always been giggling and dissolute, is also a person who values love and righteousness.
Even when encountering an unfaithful and unrighteous person like Dugu Qiufeng, he still thinks of the old feelings.
But after Ma Xiu received the killing move, Dugu Qiufeng, who was back to God, shot a dark arrow from his sleeve, but he hid a bow and crossbow in his sleeve.
The frightened Ma Xiu hurriedly retreated and threw away the Qiankun fan in front of him.
"Clank!"
The sound is crisp, and in the dark night, even subtle sparks can be seen like fireworks flashing.
Dugu Qiufeng raised his arm again and pointed at Ma Xiu, his face had changed into a terrifying bloodthirsty color, "Since you don't want to kill me, why don't you give me your head and fulfill my pursuit in this life?" ”
After saying that, the mechanism was pulled, and two broken arrows flew out in succession.
Despicable villain!
Ma Xiu immediately flashed to the side, but before his body could stand firmly, he felt a strong force hit him overhead.
The power is extremely amazing, Ma Xiu has no doubt that someone can smash the mountain stone, where do you dare to hesitate, hurriedly use your right hand to tap the ground, change the direction to dodge the past.
Rubble splattered on the ground, and a ten-foot pit appeared.
The figure stumbled a few times, and then stabilized, and Ma Xiu saw clearly that the person who had just attacked was a burly man.
He was followed by a dozen or so people.
They are all dressed in white, with an auspicious cloud embroidered on their chests.
It's the same wave of people who just approached.
Seeing these people, Dugu Qiufeng hurriedly stepped forward and saluted very respectfully, "I've seen all Tianzun." ”
After saying that, he turned around and pointed at Ma Xiu and said, "He is His Majesty's henchman, Tuoba Embroidery!" ”
is a Dugu Qiufeng who sees the wind and rudder, and the eldest prince has not yet been proclaimed emperor, and he has already flattered him as the emperor of Nanshu.
This naturally made Ma Xiu angry.
"You and other rebellious ministers and thieves, Emperor Ming of Great Shu will definitely kill you and others!"
The father of horse embroidery, Tuoba Yingqi, is the Emperor of Shu Ming.
The man in white stared at Ma Xiu with a fierce look in his eyes, "Hmph, it's just a person who is still breathing, and he still has the face to be arrogant in front of this seat, and he will take your life today!" ”
Soaring like a big bird in the forest, the figure of the man in white was windy, and a gilded iron pestle in his hand smashed towards Ma Xiu's head with the sound of a landslide and tsunami.
It is imperative to kill Ma Xiu with one move.
Ma Xiu didn't dare to slack off at all, and immediately dodged away, but the other party was at the peak of the grandmaster, and after a few moves, Ma Xiu still fell behind.
"Big brother, little brother is unbearable, come to help you!"
Perhaps he wanted to make a quick decision, but after another man in white shouted, he rushed at Ma Xiu.
This time, Ma Xiu was suddenly in danger.
"Suffer death!"
Ma Xiu was forced to retreat again and again, and the man in white who joined the battlefield later grinned with a bloodthirsty smile on the corner of his mouth, and the sword in his hand waved towards Ma Xiu's head.
This blow must have been bloody in his imagination.
At this moment, a cold light flashed out of thin air, and the two white-clothed people secretly screamed badly, but it was too late to react.
Bloody.
But it was the man in white who was split in half by the green steel sword.
This person's cultivation is more powerful than Xiao Wu's, but Xiao Wu is a sneak attack, so he can hit with one blow and directly kill him.
His brother died, but the leader of the men in white did not have the strength to be angry, because he felt a terrifying force coming at him.
This power made him only feel that his life no longer belonged to him, how could he still have the heart to kill Ma Xiu, even ignoring the entourage behind him, he turned around and was about to go into the forest, wishing that the soles of his feet would be anointed with oil and disappear immediately.
But Liu Xi didn't give him this chance, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the man, grabbed his neck with one hand, and threw him on the ground fiercely.
Another splash of rubble.
His white clothes were covered with dust, and the blood on his chest was like a freshly blooming snowdrop.
On the other side, Xiao Wu's green steel sword was like a spirit snake, killing all the remaining white-clothed people, leaving only Dugu Qiufeng.
The bloody green steel sword rested on his neck, and Dugu Qiufeng, who was pale, suddenly knelt on his knees, and cried bitterly with Ma Xiu who came over and begged for mercy, "Your Highness, your subordinates will do this kind ......of thing only if you are fascinated by ghosts, please let Your Highness spare this little life for the sake of your subordinates who have followed Your Highness for many years."
Before he finished speaking, Ma Xiu kicked it away, and Dugu Qiufeng's neck just wiped on the green steel sword, so he twitched a few times on the ground, and then there was no movement.
Zhongshan wolf is the most hateful!
Ma Xiu hates the betrayal of the people around him the most, and Liu Xi has already left a living mouth, and his status is obviously above Dugu Qiufeng, so why do you still leave him alive?
"Tell me, who are you?"
When Ma Xiu was killing, Liu Xi stepped on the chest of the man in white and asked with a knife in his eyes.
The man in white who wanted to struggle to get up coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, and then looked at Liu Xi with disdain, "Even if it is death, this seat is not at the mercy of ants waiting for you!" ”
After speaking, before Liu Xi could react, he slapped his Tianling cover with one hand and died of anger.
This person actually chose nature, which surprised Liu Xi, and Ma Xiu on the other side trotted over in surprise, but when he got Liu Xi's shaking of his head, his heart suddenly cooled, and he couldn't help but regret killing Dugu Qiufeng on impulse just now.
patting Ma Xiu's shoulder, Liu Xi said softly, "Today, you don't need to blame yourself, you can find it again if you have broken clues, as long as the person is fine." ”
Ma Xiu, who was still depressed, nodded, and then asked the question in his heart, "Yusheng, when did you find out that Dugu Qiufeng was a traitor?" ”
Listening to Ma Xiu's mention, Liu Xi then said what he thought and did before, and heard the chill behind Ma Xiu, if it weren't for Liu Xi, this time he wouldn't say that he would go back to save the Shu Emperor, even Shu Mountain couldn't get out.
Thinking about it, the sweat on his forehead was like beads.
Seeing Ma Xiu's appearance, Liu Xiwan smiled, "Today, your mind is occupied, so you can't notice it, which is also human nature." ”
"Yusheng, with you as a brother, Ma will die without regrets."
Liu Xi lightly punched Ma Xiu's chest, "Don't say nonsense, you still have to go back alive to marry the lord of Shurou, I haven't forgotten what I promised!" ”
Lord Shurou, thinking of the longing face, the softness of Ma Xiu's heart is a little more moving.
"Yusheng, Jinchao, come and see, what have I found!"
Xiao Wu, who checked the corpse, shouted, and Liu Xi and the others immediately walked over, but saw that Xiao Wu found a token at the man in white who was split in half.
It is a dark bronze waist plaque, with a vast star on one side and a thin crescent moon carved like a golden hook on the other.
Seeing this waist card, Liu Xi thought for a long time, "Today, have you seen or heard?" ”
Ma Xiu also shook his head, "Among some famous forces, I have never heard of which faction's logo is such a thing. ”
Not far away, Xiao Wu, who found the same token on the person in white who committed suicide, seemed to remember something, and suddenly exclaimed, "I've seen it, we've all seen it." ”
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted the idea of Liu Xi and Ma Xiu.
"Do you still remember the Kunlun people who came to Yangqu City, and they embroidered the stars and the moon on their robes!"
