Chapter 8: Under Fear
Boro shook his head, he never thought that what Rikube had given him would be a trap.
When the trio recovered from the bright light, everything in their vision was still a little blurry.
Yan Zhu shook his head vigorously, and he heard the roar of the evil spirit in the distance. I realized that my conjecture was correct, but now it's too late to regret it.
The trembling soul kept telling herself, don't worry about these two people! Maybe it's too late to leave now! Even if Qingxi will die here......
"As long as one person can stay and slow down the pursuit of evil spirits, the chances of the remaining two people escaping will increase......"
Before his vision was fully restored, Yan Zhu was like a drunk, relying on his intuition, he reached out and took out the arrows in the arrow cage behind his back. Step by step, he gradually approached Boro.
Boro could only watch as a vague figure approached, his ears still buzzing, and his head seemed to be veiled.
Although Yan Zhu is not a seasoned exorcist, his physical fitness is much better than Boro's. At this time, the strength and consciousness gradually regained consciousness.
"It only takes one person to stay, only one person to stay!"
Yan Zhu quickly pulled up his longbow and aimed downward......
A yellow point of light quickly enlarged in the pupil of his eye, just when Boro thought that his journey was about to end.
The arrow didn't hit him, but set the ground in front of him on fire.
"Take Qingxi away!" Yan Zhu has never been like this before, if he were his former self, he would not hesitate in the slightest when he encountered this situation, and even if he would choose to sacrifice his teammates. Come and change your own group to survive safely.
"What about you!"
"I'll have my own way, hurry up and get her out of here!" Yan Zhu felt a cold wind coming from behind him, and the wailing in the walled city had disappeared at some point.
"I'll send Qingxi out, I'll come back to help you!" Boro came to Qingxi, wrapped her arms around his chest, carried her on his back, and ran away in one direction at random.
Qingxi, who felt the bumps, slowly woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw trees flashing past him.
"Boro?" Qingxi only remembered that the land department seemed to have succeeded at that time, and everyone was preparing to retreat......
"What about them?"
"Are you awake!" Boro was emotional, he was now worried about Yan Zhu.
"What about Yan Zhu and Uncle Lu Bu?"
"They abandoned us. Although the old people in the village always taught themselves not to lie, in order to live up to Yan Zhu's kindness, they had to say so. Even if it makes Qingxi sad.
"Abandoned?" Qingxi's eyes suddenly froze, and an indescribable inferiority complex reappeared. "Why! I could get better...... I'm ...... Clearly...... It's been a lot of hard work......"
Boro could feel the big tears falling on his shoulders, although he couldn't bear to let such a kind girl cry, but maybe she really didn't fit.
"Another rare opportunity was missed. Yan Zhu smiled self-deprecatingly, "Maybe I'm no longer me anymore." β
Yan Zhu could feel that what he feared had arrived.
"I really don't want to face it like this, once I turn around, my fate will be over......"
Released the longbow in his hand and let it fall to the ground, holding a paper bag in his palm, this is the yellow fire powder that Qingxi asked Boro to give him, it was not this that he used earlier but ordinary white phosphorus powder.
"It's just to cause a riot to waste such expensive materials...... Yan Zhu laughed knowingly, "naΓ―ve stupid girl." β
A foul stench swept in, and the silver light passed through the darkness. The bright red blade stabbed out from Yan Zhu's chest.
The blood demon wanted to withdraw the sword, but Yan Zhu firmly grasped the blade with his hand.
"It's not that I said, you stink. I suggest you go back and take a shower before you come out to meet people. β
Yan Zhu looked at the moon in the sky, revealing a little light, "After I die, I don't want to become as stinky as you"
He opened his mouth and swallowed the whole packet of fire powder, frowning deeply.
"Ahem, choked in my throat......"
The sudden burst of flames engulfed the blood demon in its entirety. The heat wave swept around the mountains and forests, and Lu Bu, who had already escaped, turned his head to look at the flames rushing behind him.
"What a bunch of idiots!" Then he turned his head to look at the strange red box in his hand, and there was an indescribable excitement in his heart.
"Five years! I've finally got you!
With Qingxi on his back, Boro chose a completely different route from the land department, and at this time the two also ran out of the mountain forest.
Boro placed Qingxi next to a protruding stone: "I'm going back for a while. β
"Where to go!" Qingxi hugged Boro's shoulders tightly, now was the time when she needed to rely on her the most, and she didn't want to just let Boro leave her alone.
"I accidentally lost something in the woods. "Obviously, Boro doesn't know much about lying, but fortunately, Qingxi is in a mess right now and doesn't really care.
"I'll go with you!, don't leave me alone again..."Qingxi's body suddenly began to tremble. And the trembling was even more intense than before in the mountains and forests.
"Qingxi, what's wrong with you!"
"I ...... It's so cold......" The hot breath that came out of her mouth turned into ice crystals in the blink of an eye, and fell to the ground shiningly.
Boro also began to scramble, with Qingxi on one side and Yan Zhu who he had promised to go back. No matter which side you can't do, you can't give it up easily.
But now, if she really leaves Qingxi here alone, no one knows what will happen to her in the end. It's already winter, but it's not cold enough to freeze your breath.
"Don't ......" I don't know if it's because it's too cold, but she fainted directly before she finished her words.
Helpless, Boro had to give up returning to the mountains and forests for the time being, and he took Qingxi into his arms again, watching her tears that had condensed into frost gradually melt, and Boro could only breathe a sigh of relief.
Look at the night sky.
The wind stepped forward to help Abbot Moon do justice and drive away the black clouds that stood in front of her.
It's just that the moon doesn't seem to say anything about it, and still hangs in the sky, quietly looking down at the earth.
The flames in the mountains and forests had long since been extinguished, and the blood demon watched as his right hand turned into ashes and dissipated. With another terrifying howl, he raised his left hand and picked up the Mithril Sword from the charred pile of bones on the ground.
Behind him, more than a dozen figures swayed and appeared, all of them with a shocking scar on their bodies, and their bright red faces continued to flow out, rendering the land they walked through as a bloody road.
These are the people who were killed by the Blood Demons, and now they are all incarnated as Revenants.
The blood demon shattered his scorched bones and began to walk in the direction of the mountains and forests......
