Chapter 13: Collapse
The sound of glass shattering rang in Ritsuko's ears, breaking the moment as if it were forbidden.
The small voices that disappeared in an instant instantly poured into her ears like a tidal wave through the cracks, and the humming sound made her not react for a moment what was going on.
And the gloomy in front of him, which was still floating in the air, disappeared with it.
The snow fell on her one by one.
It's snowing again.
"Stand back!" A deep voice sounded in her ears, followed by a pain in Ritsuko's shoulder, and a huge force grabbed her, almost making her fly backwards.
You're going to fall down the mountain......
It wasn't until she hit a solid chest that Ritsuko was able to hit the ground.
"Are you alright?" It was a young man, who took Ritsuko's shoulders with a cold face, and led her behind him, and then, like the man in white in front of him, drew his sword, which was still shining with cold light.
"Thank you...... Thank you" Ritsuko steadied herself and saluted the man shallowly, but she was a little puzzled as to why they were so vigilant, "What are you going to do here?" ”
"Naturally, we want to destroy the cloud ghosts." The man in white standing in front of him was a little older, his sword in both hands pointed directly at the man who was still sitting on a thick branch and dangling his feet, and the sound of the bell rang with his movements.
Isn't he still floating in mid-air?
The sound of footsteps came from the foot of the mountain like a crack in the ground, and she was about to turn her head to look, when she saw several men also dressed in white with swords dangling past her eyes and running towards the top of the mountain.
"The top of the mountain? What do they do at the top of the mountain? Isn't that my home? Ritsuko looked anxiously at the white clothes that were about to melt with the snow, and a sense of crisis swelled in her heart, and she wanted to follow them up the mountain, but she was helplessly caught between the young man and the girl beside him.
"Master, they received news that there was a man-eating cloud ghost on the top of the Snow Ridge, and Uncle Shi naturally wanted to kill the cloud ghost, but they didn't expect that there was still one here."
It was the girl who was standing at the foot of Ritsuko's steps, she was playing with a knife in her hand, looking a little casual, but her eyes were also staring at the smiling and squinting of the tree, as if as long as he moved, the knife in her hand would fly straight to his throat.
"There are man-eating cloud ghosts on the mountain? My mother! My mother and Wen Gongzi are still on the mountain! No, I'm going back! ”
"It's also troublesome for you to go now, a team of people has already gone, and they will be able to kill this low-level cloud ghost soon, but this cloud ghost in front of us seems to be a little different from those cloud ghosts." The older man threw the sword back in his hand, shaved off a strand of Ritsuko's hair, and stopped her who wanted to run around the young man and run up the mountain, "Ling'er, you protect Ritsuko girl on the side, just leave it to me and your Master Qingchen here." ”
"But Uncle Shi! I can already fight with you! ”
"Ling'er, be obedient." The young man who was called Qingchen swept Ritsuko's face lightly, but he brought some doting to Ling'er.
"Okay...... Since Master has said so......"
Ling'er lowered her head, and the emotion in her voice was obviously much more lost than Fang Cai.
She pulled Ritsuko to the edge of the place, and only after making sure that there was a place where they would not be affected if they fought, she stopped and blocked Ritsuko behind her
"It's really disappointing, the ghost hunters came and disturbed the two-person world between me and Miss Ritsuko." Yu Li restrained his smile, jumped down from the branch, opened his blood-red pupils, and approached the two men in white step by step.
The two men were obviously frightened by the appearance of the detached, and the man standing in front of them couldn't help but retreat.
"Death, cloud ghost!" The man's heart was crossed, he shouted, raised his sword high, and was about to swing it at Wei Li's face.
It's just that this sword, before it touches the air, is like slashing into a wall of air, no matter how hard you try, you can't reach under the wall of air.
"It's useless, ghost hunters like you can't hurt me." With only a slight effort, he flicked his sword away and shattered it into two pieces.
The man took a few steps back before he could be held up by Qing Chen, half-crouching and covering his chest, blood spraying on the stone steps.
"You cloud ghost...... How can it be so strong? ”
"Don't compare me with those low-level cloud ghosts who can only kill people and eat people, in my eyes, except for Miss Ritsuko, you are all ants like them."
Lu Li slowly approached the man and Qingchen, and the six-pointed star in the blood-colored pupils seemed to turn around, clearly just a young man, but it made the two of them feel a kind of condescending coercion, "If you have the ability, you can come and kill me, I will not resist, of course, the premise is that if you can get close to me." ”
Knowing that Lu Li was not looking at herself, Ritsuko also felt the fear of being targeted, and it seemed that it would be her turn next......
