Volume 2: Dragon Teng Xijing Chapter 256: The Man in Black
On the way back, Jin Yulong only asked Lu Yao one sentence: "What you said is true?" ”
Lu Yao nodded slightly, which was an affirmation. The three of them didn't say anything, Lu Yao was the first to get out of the car, and after watching Jin Yulong and Qiao Long leave, he didn't return to the rental house, but chartered a car to the foot of Panlong Mountain overnight, and he entered Panlong Mountain overnight by night.
Autumn nights, the evening breeze is no longer so comfortable, the cold is getting stronger, the humidity in the mountains and forests is dozens of times heavier than in the city, although Lu Yao is not afraid of this cold, but he still hates this wet feeling, a few strands of broken hair on his forehead are wet with dew, and they are urgently attached to his forehead, and the clothes on his body are also wet, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
Lu Yao's belief is firm, although this little thing is unconvincing, but it does not make his determination shaken in the slightest, and he also knows very well in his heart that this little thing in front of him is nothing compared to climbing the main peak Tianlong Peak later, it is simply a small thing, not worth mentioning.
There is no road in the world, there is a road when there are more people walking, although there are many medicine pickers in Panlong Mountain who often enter the mountain, but they basically have no fixed route, there is no road in Panlong Mountain, Lu Yao can only follow some of the more convenient routes he found in his research a few days ago into the mountain. It is a big taboo to enter the mountains at night, the vision is blurred, the road is difficult to distinguish, and the night is the time when many wild beasts like to haunt, and the road is full of danger.
After walking for about an hour, the road became extremely rugged and difficult, in addition to the difficult mountain road, the stones were covered with a thin layer of moss everywhere, and the water vapor contaminated with night dew became extremely slippery, even if Lu Yao's strength is not what it used to be, but it was almost slipped several times, and the speed of travel had to slow down, and he slowly moved forward step by step.
Panlong Mountain under the moonlight is like a fairyland on earth, beautiful, especially the main peak Tianlong Peak, under the reflection of the moonlight, like a god, standing in the land of China, overlooking everything under their feet from the air, the thousands of people of the guardian Longdu, there is a momentum of looking down on the world, which makes people daunting.
Lu Yao didn't plan to climb the main peak of Tianlong tonight, he planned to spend the night in a cave at the foot of Tianlong Mountain tonight, and wait until dawn tomorrow to climb the mountain, which would be relatively easy, and the cave he was going to now was a place he had already found a few days ago, and there were some dry branches prepared in advance, he had been here for some days, and he knew that the night dew at night would wet his clothes, and prepare some firewood to dry his clothes, wet clothes would not make him sick, but always uncomfortable.
Familiar with the road, he quickly found the cave, but when Lu Yao walked to the entrance of the cave, he suddenly began to get nervous, he didn't find anything, but his intuition told him that there was danger nearby, it was a feeling that was inexplicable but convinced, just like those killers or masters played on TV can always feel the murderous aura in advance.
Lu Yao adjusted his breathing, found a relatively hidden rock, and began to hide to observe the surrounding situation.
Although the surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, some of which were even more than a person tall, but after Lu Yao's inspection, all the grass that could be hidden was eliminated by him, and finally he locked his eyes on the cave where he was expected to settle in advance.
If it was on weekdays, it would be over if he walked away from here directly, but after Lu Yao's previous exploration, he knew that there was nothing around him except for this cave where he could spend tonight comfortably and safely, and he was also a little curious, with his current strength, what could make him feel so dangerous.
Lu Yao lay on the ground, like a night owl, slowly approaching the entrance of the cave, without making a sound at all, the closer he got to the entrance of the cave, the more intense the dangerous aura became.
Suddenly, a white light slowly expanded from Lu Yao's pupils, and he didn't have time to think, he subconsciously flew out backwards behind a boulder next to him, and when he looked at the place where he had just crawled, he saw a six or seven centimeter flying knife firmly inserted there, and the tip of the knife was completely submerged in the soil, leaving only a small ring at the end of the knife exposed on the ground.
There was no movement at all in the direction where the flying knife shot out just now, looking around, there was still no trace of anyone, and suddenly from the other direction, another flying knife shot straight towards the boulder where he was hiding, Lu Yao dodged behind a giant tree in the narration again, this time he just saw a vague black shadow flashing in the direction of the flying knife, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Master, master of hidden weapons, extremely fast, this is Lu Yao's first judgment on the black shadow, he didn't dare to stay in one place to look for the black shadow, he began to change his position constantly, and took out the silver needle he carried from his body, and shot out towards every place he predicted that might be used by the other party to hide.
As soon as the other party made a move, Lu Yao did not stay behind, urging the immortal qi in his body, supplemented by the [Leaf Picking Technique] to exert it with all his might.
The master made a move, missed by a fraction, and the hiding place chosen by the other party was also judged by Lu Yao, although the silver needle did not hit the other party, but it also forced the other party to start moving constantly.
Flying against the flying knife, in the hazy night, the two flickered like sparks generated by the impact, the two of them had completely lost the opportunity to hide and sneak attack, Lu Yao kept changing his position, but the other party's flying knife was always able to follow his heels, and the other party was also running, Lu Yao's silver needle was also able to accurately find the other party's location, but for a while, no one could help anyone.
This lasted for nearly ten minutes, and the two of them stopped at the same time, Lu Yao stopped running, and the black shadow also stopped running, and both of them stood up from the grass.
The reason why the two didn't run was not because they were tired, but because the hidden weapons between each other had all been used up, and all the silver needles and tribes carried by Lu Yao were beckoned out, and the other party didn't greet himself with a flying knife for a long time, thinking that it was the same as himself, neither of them had any intention of escaping.
Although the moonlight is bright, but the other party is dressed in black and pants, and he covers his face with a black cloth, Lu Yao can't see the other party's appearance clearly, but judging from his figure, he should be a middle-aged man, there is a scar at the corner of his right eye, from left to right, almost the entire eye is divided into two halves, and the eyeballs are more white than black, obviously seriously injured.
Although the other party took the lead in making a move towards Lu Yao, Lu Yao had no reason to kill him, and for a while he also stood there without speaking, and the other party was silent when he saw that Lu Yao did not speak.
The two of you, look at me, I'll look at you, until the black shadow man finally couldn't help it, he said menacingly: "You are not from the Murong family, what kind of person are you, you and I have no grudges in the past and no hatred in the near future, why bother forcing me to kill you?" ”
"Don't you think it's funny when you say that?" Lu Yao asked with a smile.
"What's so funny?" The man in black didn't understand the meaning of Lu Yao's words, and asked rhetorically.
"You and I are indeed innocent in the past, and I don't know what you said about the Murong family, but you killed me first, don't I fight back and let you kill me?" Lu Yao also said unceremoniously.
"I see that your cultivation is not easy to come by at a young age, since you also said that we have no grievances and no enemies, it is better to stop here, you take your Yangguan Road, I will cross my single-plank bridge, our well water does not interfere with the river water, what do you think?" The man in black spoke in a slightly softened tone.
"Although I'm not a person who holds grudges, but you want to send me away with just a few words, doesn't it seem a little too casual?" Lu Yao replied directly: "I'm not a three-year-old child, you beat me, and then say a good word and it's over." ”
The man in black didn't expect Lu Yao to be so difficult, and more importantly, he misunderstood what Lu Yao meant, and when he heard Lu Yao say this, he immediately had a posture of doing it at any time, and said with a sneer: "I thought it was a passing mountain boy, but I didn't expect you to come for the Murong family's Shenlong Mu, since this is the case, I will not let you leave here alive today." ”
Shenlongwood?
What is that? The Murong family's Shenlong Wood?
The question was born smoothly, but there was no time to think about it, the man in black on the opposite side rushed towards Lu Yao with an arrow step, there was still a distance of seven or eight meters between the two, but I didn't know how the other party did it, just one step out, the distance of seven or eight meters seemed to disappear in one fell swoop, and when Lu Yao reacted, the other party's fist had already beckoned in front of him.
Hard-hitting?
Lu Yao has never been afraid of anyone, and his strength and the tenacity of the bones in his whole body have never been afraid of this, so he also greeted him with a punch.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, both of them took several steps backwards, and the distance between them returned to the distance between the punches.
Lu Yao felt that his fist was a little numb, and there was some pain in the tiger's mouth, what is the situation, the opponent's punch actually has such power, it seems that this opponent tonight is not an easy person, Lu Yao is careful to guard against the other party to strike again.
After the man in black retreated, although he was masked with a black cloth, Lu Yao couldn't see the expression on his face, but in fact, his shock was not much less than Lu Yao's, thinking that he had been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for decades, and there had never been such a young man who could take it under his own iron fists, but this young man did it, and this punch not only repelled himself, but also caused some injuries to his hands.
His entire right arm was sore, as if it had been struck by an electric current, and there was already a large bloody wound in the tiger's mouth, if it weren't for the hazy night and the black clothes covering it, the other party would have seen the blood flowing from his hand.
