The Forest of Steles on the West Mountain is the burial place of the monks of the past dynasties.

The nobles of the snowy plateau admired celestial burial, while the commoners still mostly used cremation. After the cremation of the body, relatives will also collect the ashes of the deceased and find a place to store them.

The Forest of Steles, also known as Tallinn, is where the ashes of a deceased are buried under each stele or tower.

There is a dead platform at the south gate of the Beilin Forest that is specially used to cremate the body. Jiang Yufei's body was placed next to the death table. Under the darkness before dawn, the floating leaves appeared at the gate of the stele forest in a blue samurai costume. He didn't wear a gold mask, but he didn't show his true face either.

Before going out, he looked in the mirror under the lamp and painted himself a camouflage face. Because of the rush of time, he only found cinnabar and ink, so he could only draw on the local materials and compare them on his face. In order to avoid losing his beauty, he painted all the protruding parts of his face black, while the hollow areas such as the corners of his nose and eye sockets were painted a striking red.

After putting on makeup, it made a hideous expression towards the bronze mirror, almost scaring itself.

On weekdays, the person who guards the stele forest is an elderly handyman, and tonight, because Jiang Yufei's body is stored here, four young warrior monks are arranged to guard it together.

Several people kept watch for most of the night, and after half an hour or so, the sky was almost bright. The old man guarding the gate of the stele forest left the door first and went to prepare dry firewood for cremation. The remaining four young monks were also too sleepy to open their eyes, and three of them went to the side under the pretext of being lazy. Only an honest and timid little monk was left still sitting at the door and napping.

Floating leaves came to the little friar's side and patted him lightly on the shoulder. The little friar, thinking that it was a shift changer, opened his eyes suddenly, and saw a face darker than the night. The black face was hideous, and there were terrifying blood-red colors around the nose and eyes.

The little monk was originally as timid as a mouse, and he fainted without shouting when he was so frightened by the floating leaves.

Fushengye pinched the little friar's fleshy face, and after confirming that he was not pretending to be dizzy, he reached out and picked up the sword in the little friar's hand and entered the stele forest.

He came to the side of the death platform, stuck the sword in his belt, reached out and picked up Jiang Yufei and turned around to leave, but the prince suddenly appeared at the door and blocked the way. Later, the four strong men of A, B, C and D also appeared behind the Prince of Huayan, and they stood in a row to block the door, and their meaning was self-evident.

The floating leaf turned around and walked towards the depths of the stele forest, and the painting looked at the back of the floating leaf and smiled contemptuously.

Fusheng Ye was full of strength, and he knew that since someone could set up a bureau for Huayan to lead someone to block him at the door, there were probably other arrangements in the depths of the stele forest.

Sure enough, he had not walked a few steps before he noticed a tall and mighty giant man in front of him carrying two sledgehammers rushing out from behind a stone tower to block his way.

Fortunately, the stele forest was accessible in all directions, and the floating leaves hugged Jiang Yufei and immediately turned to the side to find a new way out.

But he soon discovers that there is an even more dangerous person waiting for him ahead. That person was the sharpshooter of the Longbow Division. Chiraku stood at the top of a stone tablet, his bow and arrow searching for an imminent target.

Fushengye had to turn around again, and when he reached the edge of the stele forest, he met Xiyan who was guarding the south wall.

At this time, the sky was just dawning, and Xiyan said to Fushengye: "I am Xiyan from the Ministry of Imperial Wind, and I was entrusted by a friend to ask you to stay." ”

Fushengye said: "If it weren't for the friend holding me in my arms, I wouldn't be interested in talking to you." When I can spare two hands, it won't be difficult to kill you! So don't force me to let go of my friends, get out of the way at once and let us go before you have a chance to see the sunrise today. ”

Xiyan said: "Entrusted by people, loyal to people, your request is difficult to obey!" ”

Fushengye knew that he had fallen into the trap set by others, and if he didn't solve it quickly, he would only fall deeper and deeper.

The sound of footsteps had already been heard in the distance, and Hua Yan and the four strong men had also entered the stele forest to search for his traces, and Manggu Aji and Qianluo were also walking here from different directions.

Fushengye suddenly hugged Jiang Yufei and turned around and ran.

Xiyan looked at the back of Fushengye running away in surprise and said, "Why did he run away?" ”

Cheng Xinghe came out of the shadow of a pine tree and said to Xi Yan: "He saw me!" ”

Cheng Xinghe was dressed in a black robe, wrapped from head to toe, and hid in the shade of a tree under the cover of the night, unless he met him head-on, it would be difficult to find him. But the floating leaves still felt the sound of his heartbeat, and his dangerous aura.

Xiyan said: "It's his fate." But it's a pity that I didn't get to see your knife stunt. ”

Cheng Xinghe said: "He went in the direction of Manggu Aji, which is the weakest link in our hunting grounds. ”

Xiyan said: "Don't underestimate Manggu Aji, he launched a madness and a pair of hammers can level this stele forest!" ”

Mangu Aji saw the floating leaves coming back, and a pair of Thor's hammers in his hands rubbed against each other, bursting out with Dao sparks and the sound of Jin Ge Iron Horse.

Fushengye hugged Jiang Yufei like a hungry tiger and rushed towards Fugu Aji. The moment he got close to him, he suddenly transformed his body into a vampire state.

When Gu Aji's Thor's hammer fell, it was really thunderous, even if it was steel and iron bones, it would be shattered, not to mention that it was impossible for flesh and blood to withstand it.

To the surprise of Gu Aji, the floating leaf actually held Jiang Yufei with one hand, and caught his sledgehammer with his bare hand with the other. Thinking that he had been tricked by an illusion, he hesitated and hesitated when one of his hammers was snatched up by the floating leaf and thrown into the distance, just in time for the head of the wrestler armor that was rushing towards this side. There was a crisp sound, like a palm slapping open a watermelon, and the Lux armor skull blossomed and fell to the ground.

Agi had never felt so terrified before as he did today, and the power displayed by the floating leaves was beyond his imagination.

His left hand was trembling, but he knew that as a samurai, he could not back down, but could only choose to fight.

Seeing that Fusheng Haji raised the hammer again, he roared wildly and raised a kick to kick Aji away. He spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground, struggling several times and unable to get up.

Fushengye said to Jiang Yufei, who was unconscious in his arms: "Even if I die today, I won't let you go." ”

Qianluo rushed to the broken stone tablet and picked up Yugu Aji and asked, "Are you seriously injured?" ”

Gu Aji said: "He didn't kill him, otherwise I would have died!"

Qianluo was surprised when he heard this: "I'll meet him." ”

Fushengye heard the sound of the bowstring pulling behind him, and he hurriedly swayed from side to side in the stele forest in a serpentine manner. Seeing this situation, Qianluo had no choice but to give up the method of shooting from a distance and quickly follow up the floating leaves.

It was inconvenient for the floating leaves to move forward with weight, and they were chased by Qianluo in a few breaths to meet less than fifty steps. Qianluo was still in hot pursuit, and if he could get closer to within thirty paces, he was confident that no one would be able to dodge under the direct fire of his bow and arrows.

Ahead was not far from the wall of the Stele Forest, and Qianluo thought that his chance had come, as he deduced that there would inevitably be a block when the floating leaf climbed over the wall, and that was the best time for him to shoot his arrow.

However, in order to confuse the enemy, Qianluo decided to shoot two virtual arrows to test the floating leaves.

As he ran, he had been keeping an eye on what was behind him, and as soon as he heard the sound of the bowstring being full, he felt a cool breeze swishing behind his ears. He hurriedly deflected his head and narrowly escaped an arrow.

Qianluo said: "Count yourself lucky!" ”

Seeing that he could escape from the stele forest in a dozen more steps, he said to Qianluo: "Your arrow is too weak. ”

Qianluo reached out and took out an arrow from his back, put it on the bowstring, stepped on the stele forest, jumped up, drew the longbow in mid-air, and then shot an arrow at the floating leaves.

This arrow is condescending, and it is like a meteor coming in an instant.

After shooting this arrow, Qianluo landed steadily and shouted: "Medium--"

The floating leaf can clearly feel the arrow coming, but it is too late to dodge the body's reaction. In desperation, he reached out and grabbed the arrow, and he also shouted, "Medium-"

Qianluo thought that an arrow in the middle of the stability was caught in the hand of the floating leaf, and then the floating leaf infused the arrow with internal force and threw it back at Qianluo.

Qianluo is surprisingly sensitive to arrows, and when he sees an off-string arrow from a distance, he can immediately determine the trajectory and landing point of the arrow.

Qianluo turned slightly to the side to avoid the arrow thrown back by the floating leaf, and the arrow grazed Qianluo's chest and hit a stone tablet, and the power of the arrow pierced through the stone tablet and sank into it, leaving only a cluster of arrow feathers on the surface of the stone tablet.

At this point, Qianluo had no intention of releasing water, he pulled out two feather arrows at a time and put them on the bowstring at the same time aimed at the floating leaf and Jiang Yufei in his arms, just when the floating leaf crossed the wall, he wanted to hit two targets at the same time with two arrows.

It was not difficult for Fushengye to cross the wall of the stele forest with Jiang Yufei in his arms, but at the same time, it was too difficult to dodge the shooting of the sharpshooter Qianluo.

Qianluo looked at the floating leaves and shouted, "If you want to live, you can be captured." ”

Fushengye glanced back at Qianluo and said, "It's not time yet." ”

With that, he punched a large hole in the wall in front of him, and before the broken masonry could hit the ground, he rushed into the hole and walked away.

Qianluo put away his bow and arrows and said, "Interesting." ”

Hua Yan also rushed here. He looked at Qianluo and said, "Why don't you release the arrows?" ”

Qianluo said: "We hurt someone, and it is not easy for Gu Aji to live." ”

Huayan said: "We have a dead person, Lux Jia only met you last night, and you will never see him again." ”

Qianluo said: "I'm sorry, that black-faced demon could have killed Fugu Aji, but his subordinates showed mercy to let Guaji go." I will spare him once, and from then on the two will not owe each other. See you next time and take his life. ”

Huayan said: "I know where the demon has gone, do you dare to chase after me?" ”

Qianluo said: "Why don't you dare? ”

So Xiyan and Cheng Xinghe helped Gu Aji to go back to rest, while Qianluo followed Huayan to chase and intercept Jiang Yufei's person.

Qianluo followed behind Huayan and asked, "Where are we going?" ”

Painting Yan said: "The residence of the Nine Elders in the Outer Courtyard of the West Mountain, the floating leaf is the one who kidnapped the body of the banshee last night. ”

Qianluo said: "How can you see it? ”

Hua Yan said: "The person who provided me with the news said that last night he told me that if I don't believe it, I will lay out the layout outside the stele forest and wait for him to enter the net." What I didn't expect was that although someone else came, our net was broken by him. ”
