Chapter 63: The fox must be the first to die
The three of them chased all the way along the bloodstains left by the fox demon, watching the bloodstains gradually solidify, Lin Yunxiao was also secretly surprised by the speed of this fox demon, if he really chased it simply, he couldn't even see the shadow of the fox demon. The blood on the ground dried up, indicating that the fox demon had been passing by this place for some time.
At this speed, it's almost like teleportation.
"Look, that's the corpse of the fox demon!"
Hong Gang pointed to a red-dyed white hairy mass in front of him and shouted.
Jiang Yuan dismounted and ran to the fox demon's side, the flesh and blood in the fox demon's body had shrunk away, leaving only a ball of fur, which was not only caused by excessive blood loss, but burned out the original power.
Some demon beasts can burn their own origin, thus bursting out with very powerful potential, the speed of the fox demon is the embodiment of potential, the origin is burned out, and it will definitely die.
It is already some distance from Yuanjia Town, and it is a rugged mountain road, and there is a fork in the road not far away, which extends into four paths.
The gap between each of these four roads is not big, and this place is the first time for the three of them, and they are not familiar with it, and that road leads to the hiding place of the demon beast.
"It's really unlucky, why can't this beast hold on a little longer, now that there are so many forks in the road in front of him, which one is he going to take?"
Hong Gang complained and kicked the fox demon's corpse to the side, leaving a pool of dried blood on the ground.
"Hong Gang, don't be impatient, take the road on the far left, you can find the lair of the demon beast. ”
Lin Yunyi had just been looking down at the corpse of the fox demon, and it wasn't until the corpse was kicked aside that he came back to his senses.
"Lin Gongzi, why are you so sure, could it be that you can't find any clues from it?" Hong Gang wondered.
Jiang Yuan smiled disdainfully on the side and said: "Lin Gongzi shouldn't be guessing, if we find the wrong place, the demon beast will invade Yuanjia Town, and there will be heavy casualties at that time, don't count this account on my Jiang Yuan's head." In my opinion, since I don't know which road leads directly to the monster's lair, it is better to go one by one, so there is still a three-quarters chance. ”
Hong Gang shook his head and said: "This is not good, what Lin Gongzi said must be reasonable, we are supervising you, how can we act separately." ”
Hong Gang naturally won't let Jiang Yuan act alone, after all, whether he can complete the task this time is a trivial matter, and the key is to assassinate Jiang Yuan.
If you act alone, it will not be a sacrifice of the basics.
Lin Yunyi said with a smile: "Jiang Yuan, have you ever heard of the saying that the fox must be the first hill when it dies, whether it is a fox demon or an ordinary fox, if you can't die in your own cave, the direction of the head before dying must be the direction of the cave, and the direction of the head of the fox demon just now is the leftmost road, so this is the location of the demon beast's lair." ”
"Where did Lin Gongzi hear the crooked reasoning, I, Jiang Yuan, have never heard of it, in case something goes wrong, are you responsible?" Jiang Yuan said.
Lin Yunyi nodded with a smile and said: "Naturally, since I say so, I am very sure, if this road does not lead to the lair of the demon beast, I Lin Yunyi will bear all the faults alone, and this test will not be counted on you." ”
Lin Yunyi said so, and Jiang Yuan had nothing to say, so he could only follow Lin Yunyi and Hong Gang to the leftmost road.
Along the way, Jiang Yuan muttered: "The fox must be the first to die? Who said this crooked reasoning, it almost killed me." Maybe there is no such sentence at all, it was Lin Yunyi who made it up blindly. ”
"Jiang Yuan, there is indeed this sentence, Lin Yunyi didn't lie to you. Yan Er said suddenly.
Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said unhappily: "Sister Yan'er, what the hell are you standing there, how can you help Lin Yunyi speak." ”
"Nonsense, of course I'm on your side, now it seems that Lin Yunyi is indeed doing his best to help you find the base camp of the demon beasts. Yan'er said, "What I'm wondering about is when they plan to do it, when you finish hunting the demon beasts and the mission is over, they won't have a chance." I don't believe that Lin Yunyi is really here to be a guest teacher. ”
"I don't know, and now I can only act on the opportunity. Jiang Yuan said in a low voice.
This path leads to a mountain forest, the further you go, you can smell a smell of blood, this mountain forest is more similar to the Evil Moon Mountain, ancient trees can be seen everywhere, and the branches and leaves are luxuriant, and the fog in the depths of the forest does not disperse all year round.
The feet are covered with dead branches and leaves that have accumulated over the years, like a soft carpet, and as you walk, there is a crisp click sound under your feet, which is particularly crisp in the silent mountain forest.
I thought it was a branch, but when I looked down, it was a slender white bone, which looked unusually white, so white that it was a little abnormal.
"This is a human skeleton, and it can be concluded that there are often demon beasts here, and it is not a demon beast, but a large group of demon beasts. ”
Lin Yunyi leaned down to observe this white bone, frowned slightly, and came to such a conclusion.
"You can see that this is a human skeleton, but how can you tell that there is a large group of monsters here. Jiang Yuan wondered.
Lin Yunyi stretched his brows, smiled, and said, "Jiang Yuan, if you die here, no matter how young you are, your bones will not be so white. The reason why this bone is so white is because it was licked by the demon beast. ”
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt a coldness hit him, and his hairs stood on end.
He could imagine the scene of the demon beast licking the bones after devouring the human, although he was not afraid of killing, but such a scene was still worrying.
"And if it's just a demon beast, it will never lick the bones so cleanly, because since it has the ability to catch prey, it has the ability to catch a few more, and there is no need to lick a bone. Therefore, it can be concluded that this is a piece of the pie that the weak demon beast gets from the powerful demon beast. ”
Lin Yunyi's analysis was the Tao, and Hong Gang couldn't help nodding frequently.
Jiang Yuan didn't care, and said secretly in his heart: "When I came out, I already knew that the demon beasts were a group instead of one, and now I picked up a bone and made a big fuss, and I stinked about it." ”
"Jiang Yuan, I have to say that Lin Yunyi is also a strange person, and his analytical ability is also strong. If you can have the analytical skills of his, I can save a lot of worry. Yan'er said.
"Sister Yan'er, you're going to rebel recently!" Jiang Yuan said unhappily.
Suddenly, a gray wolf jumped out of the forest, with a body full of a foot tall, and it was the same as the fox demon Eightfold Demon Beast, and at this moment the three of them were taken as prey.
Maybe it wouldn't have thought that there would be humans here, this is simply a pie-in-the-sky thing, who said that there is no free lunch in the world, isn't this delivered to the door?
"Jiang Yuan, this time it's still the same as before, it's okay to be injured, don't kill it. ”
Lin Yunyi was secretly proud of his analytical ability, with a smile on his face.
Jiang Yuan smiled at him and responded: "No problem, I use Wanlin Jinghong Fist, this kind of fist is useless, the momentum is huge, but the lethality is insufficient, and it can't kill the demon beast." ”
After saying this, he didn't care about Lin Yunyi's feelings, and directly cast Wanlin Shocking Fist on the wolf demon.
Lin Yunyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately became angry, Wanlin Jinghong Fist is the supreme martial art of their Lin family, insulting Wanlin Jinghong Fist is insulting their Lin family, saying that they are useless.
"Jiang Yuan'er, you are too much to deceive, let you be arrogant for a while, and wait a minute, you will die without a place to be buried!"
Lin Yunyi's eyes were full of murder, and he gritted his teeth with hatred, and he had already made a small calculation in his heart about how to kill Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan didn't use all his strength when he used the Wanling Fist against the wolf demon, and the Wanlin Fist was definitely the best of the yellow-level martial arts, and its power should not be underestimated.
Coupled with Jiang Yuan's own strength, even if he only used one percent of his strength, it was enough to seriously injure the wolf demon.
Sure enough, a fist fell on the wolf demon, and the wolf demon flew out directly, screaming and fleeing.
It can be said that this place is already in the base camp of demon beasts, and the wolf demon's scream directly summoned many demon beasts, and suddenly the sound of demon beasts roaring sounded from all directions.
There was a wolf howl, a tiger roar, a lion roar, a giant python roaring, a King Kong roar, all kinds of sounds intertwined, and the leaves trembled slightly, as if the whole mountain forest was terrified.
The next moment, countless huge figures appeared in all directions, and the demonic aura became stronger and stronger.
Seeing so many demon beasts, Jiang Yuan frowned, Jiang Yuan only got the fifth-level task of the Tiandan Palace, and the task said that the strongest cultivation of demon beasts would not exceed the second level of the Quenching Realm, and there were at most one or two demon beasts of this level.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all, there are dozens of these demon beasts that have reached the third level of the quenching realm alone, and there is even a posture of a mouse pulling a shovel.
And Lin Yunyi and Hong Gang were overjoyed when they saw these demon beasts, and they even laughed out loud. The tasks given by the Tiandan Hall rarely go wrong, and the strength of the demon beasts this time is far beyond what the mission describes, if Jiang Yuan dies here, they will not be suspicious at all, and they will not have to bear the slightest responsibility.
If you want to blame, you can only blame Yuan Jiazhen for providing the wrong information, which damaged the people of the Tiandan Palace.
"Jiang Yuan, I originally wanted you to continue to look for the lair of the demon beasts, but I didn't expect the demon beasts to take the initiative to appear, go ahead, kill these demon beasts, and your task will be completed." ”
Lin Yunyi's tone was flat, but a trace of excitement could be heard from his words.
Jiang Yuan looked back and saw Lin Yunxiao and Hong Gang gearing up, if they didn't do it themselves, it was estimated that they would have to take action in person.
But their target was not a demon beast, but Jiang Yuan.
"If I fight them, I will definitely die, but I may still have a chance to deal with demon beasts. ”
Jiang Yuan thought for a while, gritted his teeth and rushed towards the demon beast.
Lin Yunyi's face was overjoyed, and Jiang Yuan, a stunned young man, really rushed forward.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Lin Yunyi took out a delicate small porcelain bottle from his arms, which contained madness dispersion, if it was sprinkled here, causing such a huge number of powerful demon beasts to go berserk, then even if Jiang Yuan had nine lives, it would not be enough to die.
Click.
The porcelain bottle was crushed, and the powder inside spread in the wind, and in an instant, the eyes of the surrounding demon beasts changed, their eyes were red, full of blood, and the corners of their mouths were salivating.
Jiang Yuan was stunned, this scene seemed familiar.
