I didn't expect Xin'er to see through the weakness, the flames behind him, Qiu Lian was greatly surprised, and couldn't help but redden. He raised his head and stared at the girl not far away, the resentment and hideousness on his face, lined with a pale complexion, which was even more creepy.

The heart of hatred, revenge, after the ability is activated, the body turns into a resentful ghost, looks like a zombie, and the strength is skyrocketing, and the revenge flame behind him is the source of his strength, and it is also the source of his life, as long as the flame is not extinguished, his revenge will not end, and once the flame is extinguished, his life will also end.

The flame, so to speak, is his heart.

"Stinky woman, you go and die first. As soon as the words came out, the hatred swept in front of Xin'er, and the speed was so fast that it was like a ghost suddenly coming. Aimed at the girl, the death fist fell, instantly bringing the yin wind of death.

Xin'er had no time to think, her mind was occupied by fear, and the girl only knew one thing, she had to avoid it, or she would definitely die.

Xin'er retreated sharply with all her might, but she retreated quickly, and Qiu Lian's fist advanced faster.

Seeing the hatred that had been approached, the girl couldn't dodge his fist, and there was only one thought left in her heart, "Yang Ming!"

When there is danger, the girl can't help but think of him, and every time, the boy will rush to her side in time to protect her.

When the fist approached, Qiu Pian was overjoyed, and when he was about to drop his fist on the girl's chest, behind him, a flash of light galloped forward, and the young man holding the sword blade instantly appeared behind him.

Xin'er's attack just now also attracted the attention of the young man, and Yang Ming instantly understood that Qiu Lian's weakness was the flame behind him.

Yang Ming raised the blade of his sword with his right hand, aiming at the flames behind Qiu Lian, the sharp edge flashed in his black eyes, and a sword stabbed down, carrying a sharp wind, and the flame that was only the size of a candle flame was extinguished instantly.

The flames were extinguished, as if the heart suddenly stopped, Qiu Lian's body suddenly lost its strength, his face stiffened, Qiu Lian's fist stopped at a distance of one centimeter from the girl's chest, and then his eyes stared at Xin'er, his eyes turned white, and a second later, like a stone statue pushed by the wind, fell beside the girl.

At the end of his life, the state of possession of the hateful ghost was also lifted, the blood-red pupils recovered black eyes, and his face was no longer as pale as a dead man, but it was a pity that the time to turn back into a human was only an instant, and in the next second, he really became a dead corpse.

The girl was frightened, and it wasn't until the boy walked up to her that Xin'er couldn't help but throw herself into Yang Ming's arms, the girl's little hands were very cold, and her body was still trembling.

"It's okay. Yang Ming touched Xin'er's hair, his eyes became gentle, and he completely lost the sharpness just now, and comforted.

Zu Ze saw that the battle was over, and there was a beautiful woman in the young master's arms, and the corner of his mouth smiled indifferently, and he returned to the young man's body with interest.

Looking at the ten corpses of Rongguo students on the ground, Yang Ming let out a long breath, and the battle was finally over.

There was not the slightest joy on the young man's face, this was just the first battle to enter the Mountain of No Return, it was so difficult, although the strength of these Rongguo students was not strong, but their strange mental images were very tricky, and if they didn't pay attention to it, they would fall into the way. Moreover, the Rongguo cadet team and the team actually united and cooperated with each other, which made their overall strength enhance a lot.

At this time, Yang Ming once again remembered Wu Jian's words, even if he had an absolute advantage in strength, he must not be careless and always be vigilant.

At this time, Ye Zhanfei searched Han Yi's body, and sure enough, he found the map of the north on him.

Now Yang Ming's team has a map of the east and north, and there is still a gap between the west and the south, and the first step has been completed in three steps.

Yang Ming encouraged: "Although the first battle was difficult, we still won. ”

Lin Dong and Wang Shi sat on the ground, calming the breath in their chests, listening to the young man's words, and then a smile appeared on his bitter little face.

At this time, Yang Ming's eyes suddenly fell on Lin Dong, and his words changed suddenly, "However, although you have won, but Lin Dong, because of your recklessness, you have caused us to fall into the trap of the enemy, do you know that you are wrong?"

Lin Dong lowered his head in shame and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect them to be so cunning......"

Hearing Lin Dong's words, the young man's face instantly became serious, "Lin Dong, have you forgotten what your uncle taught us?" Soldiers are not tired of deceit, there is no word cunning on the battlefield, and if you fall into the trap of others, it is not that the other party is cunning, but that you yourself are too stupid......"

Listening to Yang Ming's lecture, Lin Dong did not complain at all, and inadvertently straightened up, like a soldier listening to the general's reprimand. Admitted: "I was wrong." ”

An eighteen-year-old tall boy lowered his head and listened to the lecture of a twelve-year-old boy, like this, if it was changed in other places, it would definitely be very funny, but here, no one thought it was funny, although Yang Ming was young, when he spoke, a young face looked a little mature, quite the majesty of a general, which made people can't help but be in awe and awe in their hearts.

Even Ye Zhanfei on the side was infected by this atmosphere, and subconsciously straightened his body, his face was equally serious.

"If you admit your mistake, you will be punished. Yang Ming held his chin, thought slightly, looked at the sky, the sky gradually darkened, and then said: "It's getting late, let's rest here tonight, and discuss the next move tomorrow, Lin Dong, you will keep vigil tonight, can you admit punishment?"

"I do. Lin Dong straightened his chest, his body was in a positive posture, and said.

Looking at Lin Dong's serious appearance, Yang Ming smiled at the corner of his mouth and nodded with satisfaction.

Hearing that he wanted to rest, Ye Zhanfei was about to find a comfortable place leisurely, when Yang Ming's voice suddenly sounded from behind him, and the young man shouted: "And you, Ye Zhanfei." You will also be punished, and you and Lin Dong will take turns keeping vigil tonight. ”

"Ah...... Uh, yes, I keep vigil. Ye Zhanfei still wanted to complain, but when his gaze met Yang Ming's cold black eyes, the words of complaint were swallowed back, and he had to obey honestly.

......

The faint moonlight climbed up the mountain forest, but it was shaken apart by the lush leaves, and only scattered spots of light fell on the ground.

Wang Shi released the image of the heart, the pot, local materials, made a delicious "dinner", after everyone eaten, and drank enough water by the river, they were ready to rest.

Yang Ming found a hidden place, leaning against the trunk of a tree, while Xin'er leaned on Yang Ming's shoulder. Compared to the trunk, the girl felt that his shoulders were stronger and warmer, and more importantly, it gave the girl a sense of security, and she no longer had any fear when she snuggled up to the boy.

Xin'er quickly fell asleep, looking at the girl's sweet sleeping posture, Yang Ming smiled at the corner of her mouth, and the tip of her nose was a thin fragrance emanating from the girl's body, as if it was a green lotus blooming in the night.

Seeing that the girl was already asleep, the boy fell asleep peacefully.

Not far away, Ye Zhanfei was leaning under a big tree, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, he was keeping vigil, he was in charge of the first half of the night tonight, and Lin Dong was in charge of the second half of the night.

Lin Dong handed Ye Zhanfei a chili pepper and said, "If you are sleepy, take a bite, it will definitely refresh your mind." After saying that, he went to sleep, "Remember, call me in the middle of the night." ”

The teenagers did not light a fire to prevent exposure to the location at night.

The cool breeze at night blew through the trees, and there was a loud noise, which made Ye Zhanfei shiver.

", it's cold. ”

Ye Zhanfei glanced behind him, only to see that under the trunk of the tree, Yang Ming and Xin'er were getting closer.

"Hey, my heart is colder than getting up......"

"Lonely man, looking at the moon, I think of my sister at home......" Ye Zhanfei looked at the crescent moon outside the treetops and hummed a small tune.

......

Above the sky, the crescent moon gradually rises, and the earth is silent.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the distant woods.

Yang Ming was awakened, he opened his eyes, and his body immediately sat up, his eyes were vigilant around him, and because the young man got up, Xin'er was also taken up.

The girl rubbed her sleepy eyes and muttered, "What's the matter, is it dawn?"

"No, I heard a fight. Yang Ming said keenly.

At this time, a black shadow not far away ran over, and after a closer look, it turned out to be Lin Dong.

Lin Dong ran to Yang Ming's side and said with a nervous look: "Yang Ming, there seems to be a fight in the forest ahead." ”

Hearing this, the young man's eyebrows furrowed slightly, thinking that it could only be Jiang Guo and Rongguo's students who would fight in the mountains if they didn't return, so he hurriedly got up and followed Lin Dong to check.

It was already the middle of the night, and the moonlight in the forest was very dim.

Yang Ming and Lin Dong came to a high ground, squinted their eyes and looked in the direction where the sound of the fight came from, the sound came from the upstream direction of the river, because of the darkness of the night, they could not see anything except a dark forest, only the sound of fighting and the shouts of people were constantly heard behind the darkness.

Judging by the sound, the place of the battle was about 100 meters away from Yang Ming and the others, and there were a lot of people, at least more than ten people.

At this time, Xin'er woke up Wang Shi and Ye Zhanfei, and hurried to Yang Ming's side.

"Yang Ming, who is fighting?" Xin'er leaned over and asked eagerly.

Yang Ming shook his head lightly and said, "It's too dark to see clearly." ”

Ye Zhanfei still had a blade of grass in his mouth, glanced at it briefly, and said: "If you can fight in this kind of place, don't think about it, it must be the people of Rongguo and our Jiang people." ”

"Then should we go over and help? Hearing Ye Zhanfei's words, Lin Dong immediately proposed, "We can't sit idly by." ”

"Each family sweeps the snow in front of the door, and doesn't care about the frost on the tiles of others. I think we'd better not be nosy. Ye Zhanfei said.

Xin'er rolled her eyes dissatisfied, the corners of her mouth turned downward, and said: "Dead fatty, that's a student of our Jiang Guo's own academy, how can it be called nosy? Who still said during the day that everyone is a student of the same academy and should love and help each other? What he said during the day, he fed the dog so soon." ”

Hearing Xin'er's reproach, Ye Zhanfei took off the blade of grass in his mouth, and said with a somewhat serious appearance: "County Lord, I'm not selfish, I'm also thinking about our team, first of all, we have already got the map of the north, and the map in the hands of the Rongguo people in front of us is either the east map or the north map, which has no value for us to capture at all, and we don't need to risk fighting them." Secondly, we don't know what the situation is in front of us, what if it is a trap set by the Rongguo people, they may have deliberately made the appearance of fighting, in order to lure us into the bait?"

Listening to Ye Zhanfei's analysis, Xin'er was speechless, the girl really didn't think about it so much.

One has no value in fighting, and the other is risky, and the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages, so it is really not appropriate to do it.

Yang Ming nodded and agreed with Ye Zhanfei's opinion, "Ye Zhanfei is right, the situation ahead is unclear, I am afraid that there will be fraud, let's wait and see for a while." ”

Just as a few people were talking, the sound of battle in front of them gradually increased, and the battle seemed to enter a white heat. Immediately afterward, several flames erupted in front of them, igniting the surrounding trees.

After a few moments, only a few "plopping" sounds of falling water were heard.

"Somebody seems to have fallen into the river. Wang Shi's eyes were extremely sharp, and he pointed to the direction of the upper reaches of the river and shouted.

Following the direction of Wang Shi's finger, Yang Mingwang looked, and sure enough, there were three white objects floating down the river, and they did look a little like people.

"Let's go, go over and have a look. Yang Ming immediately ordered.

When the five of them came to the river, Lin Dong and Wang Shi immediately jumped into the river, dripping with water, and pulled the three to the riverbank.

Sure enough, it's a human, but it's a pity that it's already a corpse.

Yang Ming leaned down and examined it carefully. More than ninety percent of the bodies of two of them were burned by the flames, their faces were unrecognizable, and their skin was charred, but judging from the clothes they were wearing, they could still be identified as Rongguo's people, and the last one was still very well dressed, his body was lying face down on the ground.

Yang Ming turned the person's body over, and the chest of his clothes was embroidered with a fierce horse pattern, indicating that this person was a student of Jiang Guo, and then looked up.

"Ah, Yang Ming, I know him, he is a student of the Shangcai Academy, and I remember that he is on the same team as Liu Qianyu. Xin'er covered her mouth and lost her voice.
