Chapter 24: Sneak Attack
In the mountains and forests, poplars are running on thick leaves, and they are going to use their body skills and jumps to shuttle through the branches, but the movement is too loud and easy to spot.
Knowing that two monks were looking for him, Poplar became more cautious, he did not dare to take the main path, and shuttled through the mountains and forests, which were covered by dense foliage, and the monks flying in the sky should not find him.
It's okay during the day, but you have to be very careful at night, the dense jungle has many unknown dangers at night, such as a spider the size of a little finger, and it is estimated that you will lose your life if you bite it. The realm of poplar wood is low, and he can't resist the poison of ordinary poisons.
Relying on his experience, Yang Mu found a safe place on the first night, killed a brown bear sleeping in a tree hole, occupied its lair, and continued to refine the soul source.
It is estimated that there will be two days to complete refining, and when he returns to Yunxia Mountain, he will be able to recover the soul origin of poplar after taking the Silver Soul Grass alive.
For three days in a row, Yang Mu was not in danger, and he did not encounter the two monks who were looking for him. Yunxia Town is very large, and it is too difficult to find someone.
On the fourth day, Yang Mu's good luck seemed to run out, and he encountered a group of howling wolves that day, and the wolf king led by him was almost about to become a first-class demon beast, but it was powerful, speed and biting power, plus a group of more than thirty wolves, even if the four or five layers of condensation qi might not be able to get benefits.
Frightened, Yang Mu ran desperately, and the ghost stepped to the extreme, and his speed was no less than that of the Howling Wind Wolf King, and it took a spirit stone to swing the legs of the wolves.
As soon as he shook off the wolves, Yang Mu encountered a quasi-demon beast again, which was a giant python, three feet long, with a cockscomb and a flat head on its head, sticking out its tongue, revealing two sharp teeth.
After being chased for dozens of miles, Yang Mu was thrown away. That giant python is not a mutation of some species, it can spit purple smoke and poisonous gas, it can jump, and it is fast enough.
Finally shook off, Yang Mu finally ran into the two monks who were looking for him, but did not meet him head-on. As soon as he heard the sound, poplar jumped into the thick leaves and hid.
"He can't run far, it should be in this area. The red-crowned python has just chased and killed a person, with the speed of the red-crowned python, mortals have no chance to survive, and there will be only poplar wood who will appear here, look carefully, this time you can't let him go missing. Sure enough, the two of them flew in, and they began to talk far away, and the voice was not small.
The two of them floated in mid-air with a flying sword, scanning the dense mountains and forests around them, and they couldn't see the situation in the woods, but they could hear it, not to mention the wind, at least the movement within a few miles could be heard clearly.
"Brother Hui, why don't you go down and find it. The woods are too dense, if that kid had been careful, we wouldn't have found him at all. ”
"Okay, you're looking in the mountains and forests, and you're signaling me if there's something. ”
With that, one of them jumped down from the flying sword, stepped on a branch and fell to the ground. It happened to fall just a mile away from poplar.
Poplar hid under the bare roots of a huge tree, with a small hole just enough for him to hide. He heard someone jump out of the air, curled up motionless, afraid of being discovered.
The man in the air circled around with a flying sword and went to other places. The two of them came over according to the movement of the red-crowned python, and it was expected that poplar was nearby, so they looked very carefully.
The monk who fell into the mountain forest, carefully observed the surroundings, and from time to time the spirit sword in his hand sent out a light slash, splitting the trees, or splitting the fallen leaves, and before he could find the location of the poplar, he could get closer and closer to the poplar.
Yang Mu thought about a sneak attack, if he couldn't hide it, there was only this one choice. The two happened to be separated, and they attacked the monk who was close to him, and with the help of the ice arrow talisman, it was possible to kill him.
Pricking up his ears, Yang listened carefully to the man's footsteps. During the day, the mountains and forests are noisy, with the sounds of insects, birds, and wild animals, which interfere with hearing.
Suddenly, the monk struck the big tree where the poplar was hiding, split it in the middle, and fell to the sides with a clatter.
Fortunately, the poplar was not struck, and with the sound of the tree falling, it drilled sideways along the uprooted roots, which were blocked by the roots, and the monk had not yet discovered him.
"There are traces along the way, disappear here, where is this kid hiding, I found you, and I will definitely cramp you. ”
When Yang Mu heard these words, his murderous intent increased greatly, and it seemed that he could only choose to sneak attack and strike first. The monk obviously underestimated Yang Mu, and must have thought that Yang Mu was just a layer of condensation, and killing him was like pinching an ant to death.
If you are careless, you will often be bitten to death by ants. Yang Mu waited motionlessly, hearing the monk's footsteps getting closer and closer, and the mana of the dantian was running, ready to make a move.
The distance was less than a zhang, Yang Mu made a decisive move, jumped up from under the root of the tree, and directly greeted the person with the ice arrow talisman, and the mana urged the ice arrow, and after the spirit rune floated the rune, it sent out eighteen ice arrows, and shot at the monk with a sigh.
Yang ...... Ah......h Eighteen ice arrows, four were hit in the body, one in each arm, one in the right leg, one in the face, and the right side of the face was directly pierced through a large hole.
The spiritual power of the ice arrow rune is exhausted, and the power of the attack of the spirit rune dissipates once it is released. Poplar then rushed forward, and the ghost stepped up to him, a stone dagger in his hand, and stabbed the man in the chest.
This person is a fourth-layer condensation, although he was injured, he did not hurt the vital point, and he still had a certain combat power, he didn't know how Yang Mu would attack, so he directly condensed a water shield and blocked it in front, just blocking Yang Mu.
Yang Mu retreated, and the ghost dodged to the man's left side, and rushed up again, this time he cast a fire control technique, condensing a fireball. When the man gathered a water shield to block him again, the fireball controlled by the fire control technique passed around and hit the man again.
However, the monk was completely insane, and the fierce mana leaked out, and the water shield exploded outward, knocking poplar wood away with the impact force.
"Yang Mu, I'm going to kill you, kill you......" The monk threw out the spirit rune, which was also an ice arrow rune, and sent out eighteen ice arrows.
Yang Mu was shocked away, and with this force, he cast a ghost step, away from that person, just when the ice arrow talisman was activated, he was several zhang away, and then cast a ghost step, which could completely avoid the attack of the ice arrow talisman.
This kind of low-level ice arrow talisman has an attack range of only eleven or twelve zhang, and it will be fine if it is out of this range.
Seeing that Yang Mu avoided it, the monk couldn't stand it, picked up the spirit sword that fell, and the mana urged an orange spiritual light slash, slashing towards Yang Mu. But it was too far away, and the poplar used the trees to block the spiritual light.
"Yang Mu, Yang Mu ......" was furious, but he was seriously injured and even had difficulty walking, this person walked two steps, it was very difficult, and the pain made him have to stop.
Knowing that the current situation could not catch Yangmu, he had to send a signal for help. A low-level monk like them who went out, although he had a transmission note and could transmit news, but the transmission note was more precious and could not be used if it was necessary, and now he used a mortal method, a firecracker.
Yang Mu saw this person's movements, and when he took out the skyrocketing firecracker, the ghost approached and had to be stopped. If he attracts another person, Yang Mu can only run away, and if he loses this opportunity, he may end up like this next time they meet.
"How dare you ......"
The fireball flew out, interfering with the monk's signal, but when it got closer, it was spotted by the monk, and the poplar avoided it, retreated, and continued to harass.
This person is only a fourth-layer condensation qi, and he is a foreign affairs monk, his status in the Yang family is not too high, and he does not have many means on his body, that ice arrow talisman is his biggest means of attack, but it was wasted, and he was seriously injured, and the seven holes in his body were bleeding, and he had no time to stop bleeding and heal, and he was getting weaker and weaker.
"Yang Mu, you wait for me, I will take revenge...... feeling bad, the monk chose to run away, and fled in the direction that Yang Ganhui, the monk who was looking for in the air with a flying sword.
It's okay not to escape, defend Yangmu, this person may still have a chance to live, after all, Yangmu can't afford to delay, but if he escapes, he will speed up the blood flow, his legs and feet will be inconvenient, he will be limped, and he can't fly through the mountains and forests, and he is more likely to be injured.
He was injured in the thigh, his speed was much slower than that of Yangmu, and he always wanted to send out a signal flare, but he would always be disturbed by Yangmu, he could no longer stand Yangmu's second hit, he thought that Yangmu's mana was weak and could not last long for a spell attack, but how did he know that Yangmu had a spirit crystal to restore mana, and the speed was several times that of a low-level spirit stone.
"Intermediate spirit stone, you ......" This person mistakenly thought it was a middle-grade spirit stone, and was resentful.
Although the cultivation is three layers higher than that of poplar, his mentality and combat experience are far inferior to poplar. Becoming more and more angry and flustered, after using up the shield talisman used to protect his body, this person took the spirit sword and slashed at will, wasting mana, and his body was injured again, and the blood flowed faster.
Yang Mu was not in a hurry, and used the ghost step to run back and forth around the person, avoiding the indiscriminate slashing of the spiritual slash, and finally seized an opportunity, he threw the stone dagger in his hand, like a flying knife, and stabbed the person under the armpit of his right hand.
"Ah......h The stone dagger had a bit of weight, and with the power thrown by the poplar wood, it dealt a blow to the injured fourth-layer mid-level cultivator of Condensation.
Yang Mu then cast a fire control technique, and the fireball flew out to attack. There is also a shield talisman, this person actually has a shield talisman, probably to save his life, blocking this fatal blow.
But I never expected, even Yang Mu didn't expect that the spark fell on the accumulated leaves, instantly lit a fire, and I don't know what to ignite, an explosion was triggered, and it exploded around this person, and the power shattered the shield aura, blowing the person out, and Yang Mu was affected by the impact and flew backwards.
There was no sound, the man had no sound, and the poplar who got up wanted to go over and take a look, but there was a firelight over there, and the chain reaction exploded several times.
Luckily, the storage bag actually fell three feet away in front, and Yang Mu ventured up to pick up the storage bag, and then ran away.
The sound of the explosion was not small, and the other monk Yang Ganhui should be able to hear it.
