Chapter 55: Doubts
Countless corpses lay across the ground, spurting blood all over the ground.
Mu Jiujiu even saw the body of a little girl. She combed her buns, her eyes cloudy, and walked towards her with a strange smile.
The girl was still holding a cloth tiger in her hand, which had become so stained with blood that she couldn't even see what it was.
Mu Jiujiu slashed away with a sword, and the girl fell. On the way down, she was unwilling to let go of the cloth tiger in her arms, and continued to get up, dragging her embarrassed body, and pounced again.
Mu Jiujiu closed his eyes gently.
It turned out that more and more corpses were moving closer to them, although Wen Yuan could destroy a large piece every time he took out his sword, but this pile of things did not feel pain, and he was not afraid of being hurt, and he moved forward mechanically again and again.
The smell of blood and the strong stench of rancid things filled the area, and it was a mess.
Mu Jiujiu gritted his teeth, took out the blood jade he had just put in from the storage ring, and prayed in his heart that it would turn everything around it as it had done before when it faced the old man.
But the blood jade did not react, and it quietly flickered with reddish fluorescence in the night, which was useless except for a weak lighting effect.
"Why is this happening?" Mu Jiujiu was suspicious in his heart.
Can you only do it once a day? Or can it only be turned on in some special case?
She was wondering about this, and she didn't pay attention, and she was almost injured by a corpse that pounced.
"Be careful—"
Wen Yuan protected her, slashing a awe-inspiring sword intent around, and a white light erupted in the dark night, and in an instant, the corpse overturned a large piece.
Mu Jiujiu said bitterly: "It's not a way to go on like this, or we run away, right?" At our pace, we should be able to get rid of them. ”
Wen Yuan glanced at her and said softly, "Okay, you hold me." ”
Mu Jiujiu was stunned for a moment, and then held his hand.
Wen Yuan took out something from the storage ring, then gently stepped back and threw it forward.
"Bang-"
The sound of deafening resounded in the night sky!
Heart-pounding firelight erupted in the night sky, engulfing everything around it.
At that moment, Wen Yuan took Mu Jiujiu into the air and escaped the damage.
……
At night, facing the blowing wind, Wen Yuan and Mu Jiujiu walked quickly through the forest.
Despite the terrifying force just now, the pace of some corpses was blocked. However, there were too many of them, and the corpses behind them kept pouring up, trying to catch up with them.
Fortunately, Wen Yuan's speed was very fast, and Mu Jiujiu led him, feeling as if he was flying in the wind.
She looked back and saw that those dense shadows had been thrown away for a long distance, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Beside him, Wen Yuan's gaze swept over Mu Jiujiu's face, and when he saw the horror on her face, he comforted: "Don't be afraid." ”
His voice is cold, giving people the feeling of being like a streamer under the moon, but it inexplicably has a reassuring power.
Mu Jiujiu smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine, I'm just curious why there are so many corpses in this place." ”
And these look like a bunch of ordinary people.
As soon as she thought of the inexplicable annihilation of the disciples of the Yue Sword Sect that she had heard before, her eyes sank, and she didn't know if there was any connection with it.
Wen Yuan said: "Do you remember what the old man said when we were in the village at the beginning? ”
Mu Jiujiu thought for a while and said, "Remember." ”
Wen Yuan: "At that time, the old man said that all the people in the village were gone, but I'm afraid that's not the case. There are so many corpses we saw tonight, I want to ......"
Mu Jiujiu's eyes froze: "You mean, these corpses are those villagers?" ”
Wen Yuan nodded.
Mu Jiujiu's heart was horrified, if so, the empty village he saw that day...... So many people, have they all been murdered?
Did these old men do it? Or did he have complicity? But why did he do it? Is it just to control these corpses?
Also, in the old man's house at that time, the inexplicable nightmare, the feeling of falling into an endless abyss at that time, the strange laughter that sounded around him, and the man in Tsing Yi with a face full of wounds.
Although Mu Jiujiu was dizzy at the time and didn't know what was going on, she could feel that it was the man in Tsing Yi who saved her.
He obviously never knew him, why did he save himself? And finally, what he said to himself, "Hurry Go" and "Help." If I guessed correctly, this man should be dead, so how can I save him?
What did he mean at the time?
Many doubts hovered in Mu Jiujiu's heart.
Wen Yuan saw her frowning brows, and he also understood that she was confused about these days. So he said to her: "Let's take one step at a time, it can always be solved." It's late at night, so let's go back to the cave and get some rest. ”
Mu Jiujiu sighed: "That's the only way." ”
Rushing all the way back, I saw an incomparably huge tree, and finally rushed back to the cave before.
Mu Jiujiu thought to herself, today she and Wen Yuan are tired, Brother Qianxiao may sleep soundly. Tomorrow morning, I must let him find something to eat, and then sleep by himself.
The temperature at night was a little cool, and Mu Jiujiu sneezed.
Suddenly put on a robe on his body.
Mu Jiujiu turned his head to look, but saw that Wen Yuan didn't look at her, and walked straight into the cave.
"Aren't you cold?" Mu Jiujiu asked.
Wen Yuan shook his head, but his gaze froze.
"What's wrong?" As soon as Mu Jiujiu opened his mouth and saw the cave, he knew why he had this expression.
Because the cave ** is empty, where is Duan Qianxiao's figure.
Mu Jiujiu: "......"
I'm so tired, what should I do?
"Brother Qianxiao, where did you go?" Mu Jiujiu said weakly, too many things happened tonight, and Duan Qianxiao suddenly disappeared, which really made her unable to think about the bad place.
"I guess I woke up and found that we weren't there, and went to look for us." Wen Yuan said.
"So what now, are we going to look for him, will he meet the group of corpses?" Mu Jiujiu was a little worried.
Wen Yuan said: "It stands to reason that it shouldn't be, after all, that place is too far away from here, and we also got rid of the pile of corpses and won't attract them." ”
Mu Jiujiu: "But Brother Qianxiao doesn't know where we're going, will we get lost......"
Wen Yuan glanced at her and said, "Don't worry, although Duan Qianxiao is more free and easy on weekdays, he still has strength." ”
Dawn also suddenly appeared at this time, and silently complained in her consciousness: "That's it, you think everyone is like you, road idiot attribute." ”
Mu Jiujiu: "......"
Wen Yuan said: "You are also tired tonight, go to sleep first, maybe he will come back after he goes out and doesn't find us." ”
Mu Jiujiu hesitated for a moment, feeling that the forest outside was so big, and he might not be able to find the other party when he went out, and he might lose himself.
So she nodded, found the place where the leaves had been piled up, and lay down.
I hope I can see Brother Qianxiao appear safe and sound tomorrow morning.
This relaxation, tiredness hit like a tide, today is so tired, she feels her body aches, and I don't know if she has enough physical strength to rush tomorrow morning.
"Good dreams."
Wen Yuan draped the robe over her and said softly.
