At the same time, with a slight kick under his feet, his body floated up and landed steadily on the five-zhang tall tree.

Then, like a swift ape, the old man's body tossed and turned from tree to tree, like those secret feats of light skill, like a squirrel gliding, and sometimes like a kite soaring into the sky.

Not long after the old road left, the old tree that suddenly appeared and saved Li Huatang's life disappeared without a trace.

It was nearly dark, and there was a group of men and horses passing by on the barren road, it was a group of soldiers on chariots and horses, and in the middle of it was a light chariot, and there were about twenty people in front of and behind the light chariot.

They were sent by the Li family witch to hunt down Li Huatang, and from the time the family witch of the Shen family woke up and ordered the hunt to be killed, they followed the extremely obvious blood trail for almost an hour, and chased it to the end of the unitary time.

"The blood is gone!" One of the men on horseback said respectfully facing the only light cart on the trip.

The man in the light car nodded, but said softly: "Even if it is an injured beast, it can't run far, besides, that cheap boy is just a yellow-haired boy who has not reached the crown, search!" ”

The search fell, and twenty people left two guards around the light car, and the remaining eighteen people drew their blades and jumped into the woods on both sides of the road to search.

In less than a hundred breaths, someone in the forest below hurriedly ran back, stood in front of the light car, and replied respectfully: "The blood stains have been extended down the mountain, and when they reach the edge of the cliff, there is no trace, I think they fell off the cliff, and the bones are gone." ”

Lang Jun, who was dressed in brocade and jade talisman on the light car, frowned, nodded slightly, but said in a deep voice: "You take a few people along the trail, go to the bottom of the cliff, take a look, if you see the corpse, take the talisman back, this is Li Shao's request!" ”

"Whoa!" When the man had answered, he turned away, beckoned a few men in the woods below the road, and went down the path.

Only then did Lang Jun slowly close his eyes and said softly: "Since there is already a result, then go back!" ”

"Whoa!" A dozen or so people around bowed their heads in agreement, then turned the light car and returned along the road they came.

Lee's Wood Fort, the lights sweep away the darkness.

A few hours ago, there was only a mottled trace left at the clan meeting site, and the house witch sat in the middle with a gloomy face, looking thoughtfully at the three people who were bound in the hall, but did not speak, but waited for something.

After a moment, the man in the light car pushed open the door and walked in.

He looked at the house witch fixedly: "That kid fell off the cliff, I'm afraid that he will turn into meat mud!" ”

"What I want is Xuanjia!" The house witch Li Shao's face suddenly turned hideous: "Where is the Xuanjia?" ”

"A one-time talisman Xuanjia, during which the spiritual power has been exhausted, what can you do with it?"

"Du Hengzhi! Your Du family has the sacred object given by Du Daozhi's sacrificial wine, so naturally you don't care about the Xuanjia, but if you can't get the Xuanjia, don't talk about it if you borrow the ghost soldiers! The witch's face became more and more hideous.

Du Hengzhi smiled lightly: "I have sent someone to look for it at the bottom of the cliff, you can rest assured, but, if you can't find it, how about my Du family give you a complete Xuanjia?" ”

"No ......" almost said the words of refusal, and the family witch understood that Du Hengzhi was afraid that he had already begun to suspect the so-called Xuanjia, so he used the Du family to give another Xuanjia to test.

If the family witch directly refuses, with the energy of the Du family, once he intervenes in that matter, that big chance really has nothing to do with the Li family.

"Don't dare to trouble the Heavenly Master, let alone suffer in vain, the Li family just wants to recover his own things." In a hurry, he rounded up this excuse, and there were already fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

At this moment, there was a sound outside the door, and after letting him enter the house, he found that it was someone from the Du family.

It was Du Hengzhi's subordinates who sent him to search under the cliff.

"How?" Du Hengzhi asked lightly.

The man shook his head: "No, perhaps, not dead. ”

"Not dead?" Jiawu and Du Hengzhi both had incredible faces.

The witch was even more irritable: "Since you are not dead, where is the cheap concubine?" ”

Du Heng's eyes flowed, but he smiled lightly: "No need to worry, tomorrow, my Du family will send three third-order talismans, borrowing the ghost soldiers......"

The witch woke up suddenly, this matter, it's not bad to stop here, at least the Du family's eyes will no longer focus here, as for finding that cheap concubine, you can take your time in the future.

Thinking about this, the family witch smiled with a smile on his face: "In this matter, there is the matter of Lao Heng's Langjun and the ghost soldiers, Shao will do his best with the Li Spiritual Realm!" ”

Du Hengzhi got a satisfactory reply, and left with a smile, but when he went out, he glanced back at Li Shao thoughtfully.

Under the night sky, because it is the spring season, there are not many insects.

After the old Taoist priest burned the fire, he sealed Li Huatang's wound with his true qi, and then said to himself: "It's getting late today, and I'll go to find medicine to treat your injuries when the morning comes, if you die tonight, then it's no wonder that the old man didn't save you." ”

After talking to himself, Lao Dao sat leisurely and closed his eyes to meditate.

That night, when even the bonfire was extinguished, it fell silent.

Only Li Huatang occasionally let out a moan, which was in harmony with the smacking of the birds and beasts after they fell asleep.

The old Taoist priest obviously found this situation interesting.

Although his eyes were slightly closed, the corners of his mouth were filled with a smile, a relaxed smile.

Wandering in the beginning of things, free in a trance.

Isn't this the realm that the Jindan method he created is the most admired?

At this moment, there seems to be a hint of the charm that the lofty realm should have.

The old Taoist priest slowly opened his eyes, looked at Li Huatang kindly, and said softly: "Just read it for the sake of you letting the old man taste that realm, and the old man will go to find medicine for you now!" ”

After saying that, he waved his hand and threw out a true qi, only to see that the true qi emitted an ethereal golden light, and after drawing a strange character in mid-air, it burrowed into Li Huatang's body, and he didn't see any change in Li Huatang, so this old Taoist lifted his body lightly, jumped between the canopies, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

After the old way left, the quiet forest suddenly changed, and the surroundings began to stir.

The rustle of wild beasts through the bushes, the vibration of some creature trampling the ground, and the birds that could not see anything at night, but were still cooing and cooing in fright with a murderous aura......

As long as you are an experienced hunter, you can smell it in the air, and the danger is approaching little by little.

This change in the forest seemed extremely sudden, but in fact, there was a reason to follow, the wound on Li Huatang's chest was extremely serious, although the bleeding was stopped by the old Dao True Qi, but it still exuded a thick bloody aura, such a strong smell of blood, enough to attract any fierce beast in this forest.

The beasts that emerge by day and night do not need to say much, the world under the night is their domain. And those beasts that come out of the day during the day are mostly not enough food during the day, and at this time, they will also venture out to forage for food when they are hungry!

What's more, the food was so clearly placed, the smell of flesh and blood, the sweetness of the soul emanating from the blood, deeply stimulated the digestive organs of these beasts.

If it weren't for the old way guarding here before, I'm afraid that these beasts wouldn't have waited until now to dispatch.

A cool breeze blows.

Many wild beasts covered themselves in the woods, quietly observing the food.

First, they need to make sure that the food is under control, or that the food is not a threat to their lives.

Secondly, they are not stupid, they can sense how many beasts are attracted by this food, so they have to wait quietly for their chance.

However, the opportunity is fleeting, they are not the kings of this forest, if the king comes, this food has nothing to do with them.

But if you strike now, you will inevitably be besieged by other beasts, and when the time comes, it will also become food!

They were entangled, and they couldn't help but roar, but because they were worried about their own safety, they stopped roaring, almost, after one roar after another, they were quiet for a while, and then they roared one after another, and then they were quiet for a while.

Eventually, a giant bear couldn't take it anymore.

It stood upright, then slammed its two forepaws into the ground, and then sprinted out suddenly, speeding up and running, each foot that caused the ground to shake in a radius of about ten feet.

The giant bear's movement can be said to affect the whole body.

With Li Huatang as the center of the circle, among the surrounding shrubs and deep grasses, six or seven fierce beasts suddenly sprang out.

In addition to the giant bear that stood up about a foot tall, there were leopards, pythons, wild boars and three white wolves, as for the rest of the beasts such as wild dogs and raccoon cats, because of their own lack of strength, they were unwilling but helpless to retreat and prepare to find other food, or wait and see, hoping to get some scraps from these beasts!

The six mighty beasts other than the bear became agitated when they saw the bear getting very close to the food, and after a brief silence, they rushed to the food as if they had agreed, not wanting to let the stupid bear take advantage of it.

On the way, they whispered in their own languages, as if they were negotiating.

It seemed that the negotiations had broken down, and in a moment, the beasts no longer ran towards the food, but began to fight.

The giant python suddenly exerted its strength, flew out like an arrow from the string, caught up with the giant bear, and twisted its body slightly, entangled the giant bear, and the giant bear closed his palms together, and used all his strength to wrap around the neck of the giant python, and at the same time opened his bloody mouth and bit down on the neck of the giant python.

But this giant python is also experienced in a hundred battles, how can it be easy for the giant bear to succeed?

I saw a black shadow streak by, and the giant python's tail like gold and iron swept up, just sweeping on the giant bear's head.

Not to be outdone, the giant bear bit the iron-like python tail with one bite, but at the same time, it was also hit by the huge inertia and the corners of its mouth were oozing blood.

The two beasts began to stalemate, not up or down.

On the other side, three wolves surrounded the wild boar, also in a stalemate.

Only the leopard had already arrived at Li Huatang's side because of its extremely fast speed, and it was about to bite down and get food.

But at this moment, the yin wind gusted.

Three translucent, hideous-looking figures with missing arms and legs floated at a breakneck speed.

Somehow, the arms of the three figures actually penetrated into the leopard's body, and grabbed a corner of a dark blue transparent thing from it, and the blue and transparent thing was the soul of the leopard.

The three figures worked together to capture the soul of the leopard, like a tug-of-war, although they couldn't catch it, but they couldn't take it back.

The leopard couldn't move at all, and could only watch the meat in front of it, but in its eyes, there was a hint of fear.

It has seen these three things, and the appearance of these three things here means that their masters have also arrived.

Sure enough, almost instantly, "Roar! A long-dragging roar resounded through the woods.

An extremely powerful qi machine slowly approached, and with the steady sound of heavy footsteps, a feeling that even the air was frozen slowly diffused.

The three white wolves trembled and lay on the spot and did not dare to move, and the wild boar planted its head directly into the soil, like an ostrich.

The python and the bear have a tacit understanding and stop at the same time!

After escaping, the python swam rapidly around the trunk of the tree, and disappeared in an instant.

As for the giant bear, he sat on the ground like a deflated little boy.

As the extremely powerful qi machine approached little by little, the existence that was feared by the beasts revealed its true face.

It was a tall head that was almost three feet long...... The eye-catching big insect, such a huge insect, thinking about it, even if Wu Song met it, he had to shake his head, and then pull his legs and run.

Its whole body is snow-white, with a few black lines, and the most conspicuous thing is the "king" pattern on its head!

This is the murderous creature that emits a qi that freezes the air!

If Li Huatang was awake at this time, he would have found that this tiger could no longer be called a tiger, it was too large, almost three to five times the size of the Siberian tiger in later generations!

If Elder Tang had met this tiger, he would have shouted, "Wukong, help!" ”

Wukong will take a look at the tiger: "Where is the demon, eat my grandson!" ”

This is the wickedness!

When this demon appeared, the three miserable-faced figures knelt down in the direction of the tiger!

After performing this ritual similar to the Great Worship, the three ghosts continued to grasp the leopard's soul and pull it.

In the next generation, people with a little common sense will know that those three miserable-looking figures are not people, but ghosts!

It's a ghost who died in the tiger's mouth!

That's why they bow down to the tiger and obey the tiger's orders.

After he died, he felt unbalanced that he was the one who died in the tiger's mouth, so his soul led the way for the tiger and let the tiger bite other people, so as to seek inner balance and peace.

I have to say that the interpreter of this idiom obviously has a deep meaning and can educate future generations about the deep meaning.

However, such a deep meaning is not a fact, before the Northern and Southern Dynasties, when acting for the tiger was still a fact rather than an idiom, what it meant was that if the tiger became a spirit, it would spontaneously awaken its talent, and their talent was related to the lines on its forehead, which could collect the spirit ghosts, so that the collected spirit ghosts were their slaves!

If it is explained by the teachings of the Heavenly Master's Dao, it is that every tiger, when it becomes a spirit, will develop a spiritual realm within itself, which can raise spirit ghosts!

At this time, the tiger swept over the surrounding beasts with an extremely contemptuous expression, it just glanced at the beasts very indifferently, and then walked forward as if no one was around.
