Chapter 201: Lifespan
Crunch crunch......
In the quiet of the woods at midnight, only a few footsteps could be heard faintly trampling leaves.
The four executors led by Rong Chuan had already walked out of the dark side of the tomb mountain without danger, and were returning the same way at this time, trying to return to the entrance of the village.
"What happened to Xu Lang's disappearance?"
John carried the unconscious nameless on his back, touched the beads of sweat on his forehead, and asked softly.
Rong Chuan stood at the front of the team, vigilant around, and said without looking back: "I called Xu Lang, but no one answered, and Gu Chunxia couldn't be contacted." I suspect that something has happened to them. ”
After hearing this, John looked a little incredulous, "Xu Lang is the most powerful veteran, how could he encounter an accident at the beginning of the mission?" ”
Rong Chuan sighed and shook his head: "No matter how powerful a senior is, he is just an ordinary person. Although this is only a normal level mission, evil spirits are also not something we can resist.
Through the previous events, I guess that this coffin-carrying operation is actually a trap to disperse the executor team to break through.
Xu Lang and Nameless were anxious, and I thought they had made a preconceived mistake by linking the time specified in the mission with the funeral in Peach Blossom Village, thinking that this operation would reveal a great hint of life.
And the relationship between the people of Peach Blossom Village and the evil spirits, judging from the previous situation, must be on one side.
Xu Lang and Gu Chunxia, as well as us, each broke through after being separated. ”
John broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, thinking of Rong Chuan's previous questioning and Uncle Chen's acquiescence, this kind of conjecture is indeed very possible after experiencing the previous breakup with Uncle Chen.
"But, don't we really go back to see, our luggage, including the weird scarecrow, is in Xu Lang's hands, once he is killed, does it mean that the scarecrow will also be lost?
I always thought that this scarecrow would play a crucial role in this mission. ”
Faced with John's question, Rong Chuan didn't know what to say for a while.
Because of the role of the scarecrow, he has never thought through it to this day, and the scarecrow represents each executor, which is also a conjecture from the image.
Rong Chuan didn't speak, but Huang Hui, who was always silent on the side, said a little impatiently: "Luggage is important or life is important, don't forget that everyone has violated the rules of carrying the coffin now, Teacher Rong may not know when the illness will break out, and you are also dripping blood, this is the case now."
It's hard for us to protect ourselves, and we can't care about Xu Lang and them.
As for that scarecrow, it was originally an extremely evil thing, and if it weren't for the mission, I would have wanted to throw it away, and if it was really lost, it would have been providential. ”
John didn't know why, the cold sweat flowed during this time, his back was already wet with sweat, panting, out of breath, listening to Huang Hui's words, he frowned, but suffering from physical discomfort, he didn't say anything.
I just think that I should have a large loss of physical strength and blood, and I can't walk a little.
He turned his head to look at Nameless's head hanging on his shoulder, there was still no sign of awakening, his already seriously injured body, coupled with a long period of suffocation, Nameless didn't know when he would wake up.
John didn't have any bottom in his heart at this time, although this time it was an ordinary mission, but it was a fog for him, and it was devouring him little by little.
He looked at Rong Chuan in front of him, and said in his heart that he didn't fully agree with Rong Chuan's actions.
Although what he said was reasonable, it was indeed not clearly stated in the mission that he must survive in Peach Blossom Village for three days, but if he really left Peach Blossom Village, it would be a way to live.
Even if it's a normal-level mission, it's too simple.
And with Xu Lang's rich mission experience and strong mind, it is impossible not to think of this.
But now they can't contact Xu Lang, the leader can only be Rong Chuan, who is still calm, and John has no better way to follow them temporarily.
John licked his lips, which had been dry and bursting, and looked back at Nameless again.
Although the nameless strength makes people angry and frightened among the newcomers, he is not disgusted, and even has a trace of gratitude.
Because Nameless once took the initiative to find John and gave him his father Gabriel's diary!
That's what Nameless brought out of the Forbidden Lands mission, and that's why John was always reluctant to leave him behind.
John staggered to the back of the line with Nameless on his back, Huang Hui and Rong Chuan walked side by side in front at this time, she looked at Rong Chuan's appearance, and asked softly, "Teacher, do you feel anything uncomfortable?" ”
Rong Chuan was stunned when he heard this, but he immediately understood and looked at his body, "I didn't feel any discomfort, and I moved freely, neither losing control of my body, nor having blood clotting problems." ”
Huang Hui raised her wrist and looked at the terrifying wound, as if her skin could no longer heal, the cold wind blew on her wrist, and the blood vessels were clearly visible.
But she didn't feel any pain, and then she said with some concern: "Teacher, I'm worried about you, now the only person I can trust is you, you won't dislike me now, right?" ”
Rong Chuan didn't quite understand the meaning of her words, but she was a little worried about her situation, and touched her hair with a smile, "Don't worry, I will help you live." ”
Huang Hui nodded obediently, but her eyes rolled, her expression changed suddenly, and her words became even colder, "Teacher, I don't think it's necessary for us to carry this nameless oil bottle!" ”
Rong Chuan frowned and looked at her seriously, "What do you mean?" ”
Huang Hui sneered, "If it weren't for his and Xu Lang's persistence, we wouldn't have ended up in this position at all, and now that we are all taking care of ourselves, why should we allocate manpower to take care of him?" Why don't we just leave him here, maybe ......"
Huang Hui's expression viciously swept his palm across his neck, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This scene made Rong Chuan's heart froze, and he looked at Huang Hui's cruel smiling face with some disbelief, is this still the innocent female student not long ago?
"You... How can you say such a thing? Now everyone is our teammate, if it is not in a desperate situation, how can we say that we will kill people, and we will abandon them? ”
Huang Hui sneered when she heard Rong Chuan's words, "Teacher, have you forgotten your arrogant appearance before Nameless?" If the coffin fell to the ground in the woods to punish namelessness before, maybe we wouldn't have fallen to this step now! ”
Rong Chuan pointed at Huang Hui and asked with a chill in his heart, "It was you who ...... at the beginning?"
"Yes, I did it, and if I didn't, Nameless would kill me sooner or later." Huang Hui did not repent of what she had done before, but her tone was full of pity, as if it was a pity not to kill Nameless.
"Who would have thought that Nameless, who was invincible at the beginning, has ended up like this now, why should we delay our work for this waste......" Speaking of this, she glanced back at John and Nameless behind her.
But in the middle of her words, she suddenly stopped, her body was also paused, her eyes revealed incredible, and she grabbed Rong Chuan's arm.
"Old... Teacher, look at him......"
Rong Chuan frowned, turned around slowly, and after taking a look, the whole person stayed in place, his eyes wide in disbelief.
John saw that the two people in front of him were not leaving, and at the same time turned his head to look at himself, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, "What's wrong?" ”
When he said this, he felt that something was not right.
own voice... It doesn't seem to be the same as before!
He frowned, but found that the muscles of his face were extremely loose, as if his originally tight and vivid face was now wrinkled.
John's eyes were a little wrong when he looked at Rong Chuan, and he was also a little flustered.
"What the hell is going on?" In a hurry, he suddenly felt an itch in his throat and eyes, and then began to cough violently.
But this cough, suddenly he felt that the teeth in his mouth were loose, and he hurriedly bent down and covered it with his hand.
Then the palm of the hand was spread out, and several teeth had fallen out of the gums, and at this time there were a little blood stains lying quietly in the palm of the hand.
John was like a hell of a ghost, his body began to tremble violently, and he couldn't stand steadily, and he fell to the ground with the nameless behind him.
John panicked completely, threw his teeth on the ground, and began to touch his face like crazy, and then stretched out his hands to look at them.
This glance almost made him lose his soul, only to see that the back of his hand was full of wrinkles, the loose skin seemed to be unable to wrap the bones compactly, and the specks of age were all over the back of his hand.
He rolled up his sleeves, and his originally strong arms were now more vigorous except for hair, and his skin was already old and drooping.
John stroked his face in a panic, and he could feel that his face was already wrinkled.
Rong Chuan and Huang Hui ran to his side quickly, a little afraid to touch it.
Huang Hui took out the small mirror she carried with her from her arms and handed it to John, who had completely changed in front of the mirror.
He was completely old, his brow drooped downward, the skin on his face was saggy, and his hair was no longer pure blonde, but gray, not at all like a young man in his twenties, but an old man who was about to grow old!
No wonder he can't straighten his waist and breathe with Nameless on his back, because he is no longer young!
John gasped violently, what was it? What stole his lifespan!
Rong Chuan swallowed, knowing in his heart that this was most likely the result of a drop of blood, he gently patted John's shoulder and didn't say anything.
From behind him, he lifted Nameless on his back, "We're going to get out of the grave mountain soon, let's get out of here first." ”
John could no longer carry Nameless, and time was of the essence.
Because if John's punishment has worked, then Rong Chuan's punishment may also begin!
