Seeing that the ghost statue swallowed his last breath unwillingly, Erwa stretched out her hand and gently closed her eyes for the former master, then stood up and asked the people around her: "Has the main force of Lord Jinglu arrived?" ”

A man in black nodded to the ground on one knee, clenched his fists and said: "Lord Qiqiyun, just before the herald came to report, after nightfall, the main force of the marshal suddenly encountered a sandstorm and was trapped forty miles away, I am afraid that it will not arrive until after dawn."

The commander ordered us to wait for the forward battalion that arrived in advance to break up and start an operation, so as to completely eradicate the remnants of the Hanhai horse bandits and find the specific location of the remaining treasures. ”

Erwa frowned when she heard this: "The church has been completely destroyed by the thunder, and now if you want to find the specific location of the treasure, you can only catch the ghost-faced demon god who escaped."

Fortunately, since he chose to flee, it shows that the information that he is terminally ill has not been wrong, and nine times out of ten he was picked up by Yin Zhennan's people.

It's just that the night is vast now, the Hanhai horse bandits are in chaos, and it has wasted a lot of time to trap the ghost statue, and it is only difficult to intercept Yin Zhennan. ”

The man in black said: "Don't worry, my lord, since the forward battalion has divided its troops, it must have attacked all kinds of horse bandits, and once the traces of the ghost-faced demon god are found, a signal will be sent immediately, so we just need to wait patiently." ”

Erwa shook her head: "It's not a way to wait, there is a little ghost statue that is right, the rebellion came suddenly, even the ghost-faced demon god didn't have time to prepare, he must have been very hasty when he left, nine times out of ten he escaped from the north of the city, let's go there!" ”

"Yes!"

The man in black agreed, beckoned to the soldiers behind him, and more than a hundred heavily armed people in Heili immediately disappeared into the night and headed towards the north of the city, leaving only the corpses of horse bandits all over the ground and no one to collect them.

"Are you okay?"

Xu Rui stopped and asked Helen on his back.

"Huh?"

Helen opened her eyes with difficulty, saw the scenery around her clearly, showed a reluctant smile, nodded and said, "I'm fine, I'll be to the north of the city so soon." ”

Xu Rui carried Helen on his back to the north of the city, I don't know if the bumps along the way made this exhausted woman exhaust the last bit of strength, and she actually fell asleep on Xu Rui's back several times.

Xu Rui noticed that her heart rate and body temperature were dropping, and he couldn't help but be a little worried about her, but now that Princess Qixia and the shadow maid were still missing, he couldn't care about Helen's safety.

"You hold on, and I'll leave as soon as I find my companion."

Xu Rui said a deep word to Helen, and continued to walk forward.

Helen smiled bitterly: "You have lost your mind, but what is even more sad is that I have to rely on your strength to escape, and I have to accompany you on the adventure, but I have to remind you that once something happens to us, the other world may lose hope, and we can't afford to lose......"

As he was talking, Xu Rui's footsteps suddenly stopped.

"Huh? Why don't you go? ”

Helen was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked.

However, Xu Rui remained motionless and did not answer.

Helen looked up suspiciously, and was stunned.

The pile of rubble in front of him seemed to be stained red with blood, and there were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and internal organs and meat were scattered all over the ground, like a large chaotic slaughterhouse.

"It looks like the people who answered you are dead......"

Xu Rui said suddenly.

Helen had never seen such a scene, and her face turned pale and she retched.

Xu Rui's face was solemn, he raised his feet and walked into the middle of the corpses, carefully examined several corpses, and confirmed that most of the deceased were horse bandits, and he had seen a few of them, and they were Yin Zhennan's subordinates.

He squatted near a shattered head to take a closer look, and found that the head was directly smashed by someone with a blunt object, and this technique suddenly flashed in his mind the appearance of leaving, and said in a deep voice: "It's them!" ”

Helen finally stopped retching and asked with difficulty, "Did your companion do it?" ”

Xu Rui shook his head: "It's the person who is with my companion." ”

"What do you mean?"

Helen didn't know why.

Xu Rui's face was even more gloomy: "There is a guy who doesn't know the details, he was originally seriously injured and it is unlikely that he will recover his mobility in a short time, but I don't know why he seems to have suddenly recovered completely." ”

Seeing Xu Rui's appearance, Helen frowned: "Are you blaming yourself, you handed that person over to your companion?" Could it be that he will kill your companions along with him? ”

Xu Rui didn't speak, he quickened his pace with Helen on his back, and walked all the way along the carpet made of corpses, not letting go of any corpses, but fortunately, the corpses of Princess Qixia and Shadow Maiden had not been found for the time being, indicating that they at least did not die here.

About a dozen meters away, the number of corpses suddenly decreased, and it seemed that the battle did not last long, but Xu Rui's face did not improve in the slightest.

Because in addition to not being sure how he would treat Princess Qixia and the Shadow Maiden after waking up, he was a little more worried, in addition to the horse bandits, there were also many people in black among the corpses on the ground, and the further he went, the more corpses of the people in black became.

At first, there was only one body of a man in black among the corpses of about four or five horse bandits, but after more than ten meters ahead, it was basically five or five.

The state of death of the corpse has also changed significantly, and the slaughter-style killing has almost disappeared, and instead has become a vicious battle between the horse bandits and the men in black.

Xu Rui briefly examined the limbs of the men in black and found that their two palms were full of thick calluses, which usually horse bandits and heroes would only have such thick calluses on their right hands holding knives.

The only ones with calluses on both hands are the sergeants who have been practicing with spears for a long time, which means that these men in black are all soldiers......

"Looks like someone else wants your life!"

Xu Rui said in a deep voice.

Helen knew what he wanted to say, and said, "Longtu's people have arrived, and it's still too late for us to leave immediately." ”

Xu Rui shook his head: "It's true that these are indeed Longtu's people, but his main force should still be some distance away from here." ”

Helen's eyes narrowed slightly: "How can you be sure?" ”

Xu Rui said: "If his main force arrives, he can completely surround the New Territories City, how can he let the soldiers change into night clothes to fight an uncontrollable infiltration war?" ”

Helen suddenly said: "You mean these are just his advance team, or special forces?" ”

Xu Rui nodded: "These are the same as the ones we saw before, I have to find my companions as soon as possible, and then leave before the arrival of Longtu's army." ”

While the two were talking, they walked forward, and after about a hundred steps, Xu Rui stopped again.

A faint red light flashed in Helen's eyes, and she whispered close to Xu Rui's ear, "Attention." ”

Xu Rui nodded and quietly moved to the side.

He noticed the heartbeat of a living creature behind the stone just a dozen meters in front of him, and it was obvious that Helen had noticed something unusual, and it was likely that someone was waiting for the rabbit there.

"Fold, you can't deal with that person."

Helen persuaded Xu Rui again.

Xu Rui pondered for a moment and shook his head stubbornly.

At this moment, the two of them were suddenly startled at the same time, and then a black shadow flashed above their heads, and Xu Rui immediately kicked his legs and rushed forward.

With a "boom", a figure suddenly fell from their original position, and it smashed a small crater like a cannonball.

Xu Rui's face changed, and he suddenly pulled out the broken blade, but one palm had already slashed at his face first, and the speed was incredible.

In Xu Rui's consciousness, the speed of this palm was only slightly slower than that of the alloy battle armor, but it was also an irresistible existence.

Xu Rui grabbed the broken blade, his mind turned back and forth, but the speed in his hand couldn't keep up at all, and he looked at it from a distance like a stupid chicken who was scared and didn't react at all.

"Stop!"

Seeing that the palm of his hand was about to smash Xu Rui's head, at this moment, a panicked female voice suddenly came from afar.
