Chapter 55: The Mysterious Uninhabited Village (2)

The rumbling thunder is getting louder and louder, and the rain is not far away, and it is coming.

Wen Zhe visited several nearby villages in a row, without exception, every village, every household, and all kinds of living utensils.

Only, there are fewer people who live in it.

This area is like a dead city with no popularity and no living creatures.

It is difficult to walk at night, and seeing that the heavy rain is coming, Wen Zhe plans to wait until after dawn tomorrow to investigate.

Besides, he has been out for some hours, and he is a little relieved that Su Jianxiang is not at ease.

By the time he got back to his place, it was late at night, and just as he had stepped into the courtyard, the rain was pouring down.

At this time, Su Jianxiang had not yet fallen asleep, and was anxiously waiting for Wen Zhe to come back.

Hearing the movement outside, she quickly got up and came over to check, came to the door, and happened to collide head-on with the person who pushed the door in.

At that moment, Su Jianxiang's face turned red all of a sudden, and Wen Zhe laughed after a pause.

"Why haven't you slept yet, are you waiting for me?"

The man who was already blushing lowered his head, stepped aside, and replied.

"It's raining outside and I'm just not at ease"

The man smiled, not paying much attention to the blushing man.

Put away the joke, "It seems that something happened here not long ago"

Hearing this, Su Jianxiang also became a little solemn, turned around and asked.

"When you go out, do you find anything?"

Wen Zhe shook his head, thinking about the strange phenomenon here.

"I've looked around a few villages around here, and without exception, it's like a dead city, and there's not a single living thing."

Hearing this, Su Jianxiang couldn't help but feel a little chill in her heart again.

At the moment, they can't think of what will make the people of several villages disappear collectively.

Maybe they can only wait until the rain has passed, when the day dawns, to find out.

And just a dozen kilometers away from this village, in a deep mountain, a terrifying and bloody scene is being staged inside.

On the back side of the mountain, there was a huge stockade.

At this time, from the village, there will be a terrible cry from time to time, coming from inside.

And in the dungeon privately built in the stockade, many people were imprisoned separately.

There are men and women, old and young.

They are all ordinary people who have disappeared from nearby villages.

All of them were caught in this stockade.

And some of them have been poisoned.

No one knows when this stockade was built, and no one knows who lives in it.

It's just that not long ago, a few hunters who were hunting accidentally discovered this place, originally just out of curiosity, wanting to see the face of this cottage.

Unexpectedly, they were arrested by the people in this village, and then they stretched out their claws to the village within a radius of more than ten miles.

And this stockade was built by the people of the demon clan who fled back then.

They have been living in seclusion and recuperating here.

Now the leader of this village is the former deputy lord of the demon clan, Luo Lie!

After the war between the demon clan and the four major sects more than ten years ago, the demon lord was martyred in the battle, and Luo Lie fled with some of his subordinates.

In order to avoid the pursuit on the rivers and lakes, Luo Lie took great pains to find such a hideout that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and extremely secret.

And Luo Lie's ruthlessness is even worse than that of the previous Demon Lord!

He has now proclaimed himself the new one, the Demon Lord!

The purpose of catching these powerless ordinary people is to refine medicine with living people! Enhance his mana to achieve the ambition of the demon clan to make a comeback!

Back then, the four major factions joined forces to destroy the demon clan, and it was because the demon people exterminated humanity and killed countless people with living sacrifice medicine.

As a result, everyone in the world condemns it!

Now that ten years have passed, who would have thought that there is a distance from Bashu and Gusu.

There will be signs of demon activity again.

And their claws once again stretched out to the innocent people.

After a night of heavy rain, the next day ushered in, and it was a sunny day.

But under this bright and clear world, in that cottage, the brutal killing did not end.

At this time, the subordinates in charge of patrolling in the stockade have discovered the traces of Wen Zhe and his party.

And in the first time, he reported the matter to Luo Lie.

And Luo Lie didn't know that one of the people in this group was the deputy sect master of the Medicine King Sect.

Just as they were about to deploy again and want to arrest people, on the other side, Wen Zhe had already followed the clues he had found this stockade in the mountains!

Early in the morning, Wen Zhe went out with two of his subordinates.

After a night of heavy rain, there were no clues in the village, so they had to take advantage of the situation to expand the scope of the investigation.

Sure enough, more than a dozen miles away, someone was spotted patrolling.

When Wen Zhe saw the clothes of those patrolling people, he secretly screamed in his heart!

Isn't this the demon clan who has become extinct!

How could it be in such a place!

He immediately connected those missing villagers with these demon remnants.

In order not to startle the snake, Wen Zhe quickly withdrew after groping for the situation.

One of his men was left behind, and he was nearby to monitor their movements.

The current situation made him feel a little tricky.

Looking at the patrol posture, it seems that the demon power here should not be underestimated.

And there are only a few of them, and they still have Su Jianxiang with them, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with.

After thinking about it, Wen Zhe quickly passed the news to Jiang Nan's Wen Xun.

He thought of the battle with the demons back then, and then cleaned up the battlefield, but he didn't find the body of the deputy lord Luo Lie.

At that time, he remembered that Wen Xun had said that letting Luo Lie escape would inevitably become a big hidden danger.

Luo Lie's ambition is vicious, they have already seen it, if such a person is allowed to reappear in the rivers and lakes again.

The world will inevitably fall into dire straits again!

After returning to the place where he lived, Wen Zhe made another decision to let Su Jianxiang go first, while he stayed here to investigate the situation.

But Su Jianxiang was unwilling, and in such a grim situation, she had to send two secret guards alone to escort her away.

Originally, they didn't have many people, and if they sent someone to protect her back, then Wen Zhe would have no one around him to help him.

Su Jianxiang analyzed very rationally, "The most important thing at the moment is not to escort me back, have you ever thought that since we can find out their whereabouts." Have we not been exposed? If you send someone to take me away now, maybe those demons are already in ambush on the road. After all, this is where they are entrenched, and they are more familiar with the local terrain than we are. ”

Hearing her words, Wen Zhe also thought about it.

Su Jianxiang is right, the terrain here is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the slightest wind and grass will let the people of the demon clan find out.

If Su Jianxiang falls into the hands of the demons again...

He didn't dare to think about it, for some reason, thinking of this, the scene of Wen Linglong being arrested more than ten years ago suddenly flashed in his mind.

Thinking of this, he also dispelled the idea of sending Su Jianxiang away.

The two discussed it and decided to hold their troops first, but Wen Zhe felt that they were not enough now, and if they really started to fight the demons, they would definitely have no chance of winning.

Now it is too late to go to the Medicine King Sect to move the rescue troops, in this case, Wen Zhe thought of sending someone to the local city lord's mansion to report the news, and ask them to send more people to come to help.

But this idea was opposed by Su Jianxiang!

Su Jianxiang thought that this demon clan was entrenched in this place, and it was impossible for the local lord of the city to not notice it at all.

If the lord of this side has already colluded with the people in the Demon Sect, then wouldn't they have become turtles in the urn, and they can be caught all when the two sides join forces.

When Wen Zhe heard this, he admired Su Jianxiang more and more in his heart.

Unexpectedly, she not only did not have the panic and fear of ordinary women.

is uncharacteristically calm, and can analyze the current situation so rationally.

It really made him even more impressed!

At this time, there were only the two of them in the hut, and after Su Jianxiang said these words, the man on the side stared at her with an appreciative expression.

looked at her little face, and then turned red again.

Wen Zhe purely admired her talent, and asked after looking at it for a while.

"What do we do next, in your opinion?" he wanted to hear her opinion, even though he already had an idea in his mind at the moment.

In order to hide his embarrassment, Su Jianxiang pretended to cover her lips and coughed twice, and hurriedly made another suggestion.

"Right now, we have limited manpower, we must have other support, if I am right, one of the four major factions, the Hundred Flowers Palace, is within this hundred miles. It is much faster to move the rescue troops from there than to go to Gusu. It's just that I heard that Baihua Palace has been closed, and I don't know if it will help us. ”

This idea coincides with what Wen Zhe thinks in his heart.

He had also thought of the Hundred Flowers Palace, and what he was worried about about Su Jianxiang was also what he was worried about right now.

With a long sigh, he said, "Whether they want to send someone to help or not, they have to give it a try, and we can't turn a blind eye to the suffering of so many innocent people." ”

Let them meet today, this person must be rescued.

"I think my medicine king has always taken it as his responsibility to help the world, and he can't let it go"

Hearing this, Su Jianxiang couldn't help but chuckle.

Wen Zhe saw her smile and raised his eyebrows.

"What are you laughing at?" Isn't what he just said funny!

Su Jianxiang rarely showed such a pleasant smile and replied.

"In the past, Qingxin always said that the Medicine King Sect was a golden flocculent and defeated among them! Seeing your bold words today, I can't help it... ”

As he spoke, he covered his lips and laughed again.

And at this time, Wen Zhe's face was a little unbearable, he squinted, and suddenly leaned forward, directly to the smiling man whose shoulders were trembling.

Pretending to be threatening, he said, "You dare to make fun of the deputy sect master of the dignified Medicine King Sect!" Be careful, I'll leave you alone at night, after you're asleep. ”

Originally, she just wanted to tease her, but after Su Jianxiang heard this, her face turned white instantly, and her eyes were even more frightened.

It was like a frightened bird, innocent and pitiful.

Seeing this, Wen Zhe couldn't bear to scare her anymore, so he straightened up and said.

"Okay, I'll tease you, look at what scares you, if I really throw you down, your good sister Miss Huo Er, won't swallow me alive."

When the words fell, the woman's face suddenly turned red again...
