Chapter 67: Moonlit Night Killing

The Whisper of the Wind and the NPCs are relentlessly fast and fast, and soon the two of them are gone. Ye Xingyu could only keep tracking the traces left by the two along the road.

Ye Xingyu chased along the road for more than two hours, chasing a distance of more than twenty miles, but he still didn't see the two of them whispering and ruthless.

Ye Xingyu suddenly stopped, and a river that was not too wide suddenly appeared in front of him, and the water looked a little rushed.

Ye Xingyu looked at the messy weeds and some wet ground beside the river, which were obviously the traces left by the time they passed not long ago.

Ye Xingyu didn't hesitate too much, his figure first took a few steps back, then stepped on the ground a few steps, and sprinted forward, his figure drew a graceful arc in mid-air, and a moment later, he had already appeared on the opposite side of the river.

When Ye Xingyu stabilized his body again, he suddenly frowned.

He walked a few steps along the river, then slowly crouched down, brushed his fingers lightly in a patch of grass, and then leaned in front of his nose to sniff it.

Blood, human blood!

In the grass on the riverbank under the moonlight, a large pool of bright red blood stains looked particularly strange and conspicuous, and the pungent fishy smell made Ye Xingyu feel an ominous premonition.

The blood hasn't completely coagulated, and people shouldn't have gone far.

He walked along the river again, and there seemed to be traces of a violent fight around it, but Ye Xingyu felt that something was not right, because the footprints on the ground were very messy, and it didn't look like two people were fighting.

Judging from the position, it seems more like eight or nine people are besieging one person.

Could it be that the Whisper of the Wind actually has a helper here to help him ambush and be ruthless? Or is there another NPC that is helping to mercilessly capture Wind Whisper?

This idea suddenly appeared in Ye Xingyu's mind, but then he shook his head again, first of all, this place is a little far away from the town, and the level and number of monsters are not something that ordinary players can handle, so ordinary players will not come to this kind of place to farm monsters.

And Wind Whisper doesn't look like the kind of player who likes to play tricks, he probably wouldn't do such a thing.

And how could NPCs come to such a place? Even if the whisper of the wind provoked the government forces, in his opinion, it was not really a serious crime, and it was impossible for the government forces to use so many human resources to arrest them.

That said, there may be a third party here!

Ye Xingyu's heart suddenly sank.

Ye Xingyu looked at this river again, why did he meet these people here, he didn't believe in any coincidences, there are too many coincidences in the world that are artificially created.

Ye Xingyu looked at the traces around him, the blue light in his eyes flickered for a while, the silk threads in his brain reorganized the surrounding environment, and his spiritual power worked wildly.

Profile, with the help of mental power and clues about the things around him, try to recreate the scene that happened before.

In his mind's eye, the whisper of the wind or the merciless of the two tried to leap from the opposite bank to this side of the river, and the fish leaped out of the water that was high enough for him without warning.

The whisper of the wind or ruthlessness had nowhere to borrow strength in mid-air, and without much defense, he was attacked by the other party and injured, and blood was spilled in the grass on the riverbank.

With his veteran combat experience, he should not have been injured to the core, and after a moment of entanglement with the sneak attackers, he fled into the depths of the jungle.

Ye Xingyu was sure that this person should be one of the whispers and ruthlessness of the wind, but there was a problem, where did the other person go?

And why did this third-party power come about?

In this way, it seems that there are two possibilities, one is that Wind Whisper may have some other means to escape the merciless pursuit, and the ruthless pursuit here was ambushed by a third-party force that knew his course of action, then the goal of this force is only ruthless.

The second possibility is that Wind Whisper came here after getting rid of his ruthlessness, and the player who hated him got the information, so he came here to ambush first, and the injured one was Wind Whisper.

It is possible to have both, of course, it is not ruled out that the horse thieves in this area are eyeing them and setting up an ambush here in advance.

It was just a moment of effort, and Ye Xingyu faintly had some guesses.

His eyes froze, looking at the direction where the footsteps and blood trails were leading, and after thinking about it, Xiao Wuxianggong was running slowly, his physical state recovered little by little, and at the same time, the aura around his body began to converge, and his body followed silently against the shadows of the grass and trees.

When more than ten minutes passed, Ye Xingyu's ears moved slightly, and faintly there seemed to be a sound of fighting coming from the forest in front of him.

He slowly performed the wolf step, and at the same time used Xiao Wuxiang Gong to hide his figure, and quietly groped his way there.

Ruthlessly pulled the knife out of the body of the man in black in front of him, and the body of the man in black immediately fell, his hand just wanted to tear off the other party's black hood, but the man turned into a puff of green smoke for no reason, and gradually dried up.

Ruthless frowned slightly, this is already the third one, the moment before he kills the other party, the other party will swallow the poison in his mouth without hesitation, and then the whole person will quickly decay and lose water.

The NPC who was originally dressed in brocade clothes looked a little embarrassed at this time, his hair was a little messy and scattered on his shoulders, the corners of his mouth overflowed with a trace of blood, and a scar on his left arm was shocking, and he no longer had the calm and cold he had before.

And there were six black-clothed masked people around the ruthless, and there were two similarly black-clothed masked corpses on the ground, these people looked like ordinary people, but Ye Xingyu always felt a little weird when he looked at these people, but he couldn't say what the problem was.

"You guys are really a good means, using so many people, and there is an advanced master to kill me, what's the matter, could it be that Your Excellency had a grudge against me in the past?" Ruthlessly, he sneered and looked at a man in black not far away and said.

This man in black did not participate in the previous siege, but just stood on the sidelines.

"Hehe, why we're here, I think you probably know better than we do." The man in black said in a deep voice.

Ruthless's eyes jumped slightly when he heard this, but he suddenly smiled, "I'm just an ordinary mid-level catcher, I just appeared here to capture a fugitive, how do I know why you're here?" ”

"Why do you want to hide it anymore?" The man in black sneered.

Ruthless didn't speak, just looked at each other quietly with a clear conscience.

"Cold and ruthless, the direct pro-guard of the royal family, mid-level strength, at the age of 25, mixed into the forbidden domain at the beginning of this year, and carried out the royal secret order. Am I right? The man in black said with a grin on the corner of his mouth.

When Ruthless heard about the forbidden realm and the secret order, the look on his face became more and more difficult to see.

"You were going to bring that thing back to the Imperial City directly, but I don't know how you sensed our existence and went around in circles under the pretext of arrest, but after all, I was arrested."

"Hand over the map of the Forbidden Lands! I can give you a good time! The man in black said with a cold glint in his eyes.

"Okay, something for you!" Ruthlessly, but to everyone's surprise, he smiled, and then suddenly threw a scroll-like object at the man in black.

The black-clothed man at the head looked cold, and then with a wave of his cuffs, several cold lights suddenly flashed out
