Chapter 123: Closing Matters (2-in-1)
The words fell.
Jiang Cang chased towards the forest.
Wang Yue recited the few words Jiang Cang had just said, and finally after glancing at the people with complicated faces, he hugged his fists and followed him to the forest in a few steps, saving Jiang Cang from having any accidents.
But for a while.
The footsteps faded away, and the figures of the two disappeared into the night forest.
All that remains is the 'buzzing' of mosquitoes and the twisting of corpses under the trees.
The remaining six looked at each other, looked at the corpses on the ground, the pitch-black path, and the direction in which the serpent had disappeared, and they didn't know who said, 'Follow along.'" Or rather, several people have such thoughts.
However, this is not that Jiang Cang is right, but they think that it may not be safe to go back, plus they have to be cheeky, and they are even more afraid that Wang Yue will go back alive, and the rumors will spread, and their reputation will be completely stinky.
In the end, Wang Yue is powerful and powerful, can their lives be better?
In this way, it is better to fight.
It can be regarded as Jiang Cang's words, which made them think about the problem a little more, and left without shaking their faces, so that the circuit would be difficult.
After all, everyone wants to save face, if you really have to run away with a hard face, you have to run down, otherwise you will encounter danger halfway and run back, what is that called.
"Let's go.." A few people looked at each other one last time, and quickly followed, and the corpses of their companions will be talked about when they come back, and now the affairs of the living are important.
And about three hundred meters away.
When Wang Yue followed Jiang Cang, he sniffed nearby, walked vigilantly, looked at the blood stains on the ground, and said with a smile: "There are blood stains left, let it escape, it won't be able to escape far." And today there is a bell to help, which is really a good thing. This demon will definitely be eliminated! ”
"Admittedly." Jiang Cang moved forward, and there was still the 'range coordinate hint' of the giant snake in his mind, which was five hundred meters away in front of him, and he didn't move.
But when the giant snake escaped before, his 'danger perception aura' disappeared, and it is estimated that the giant snake hid as it did at the beginning, and restrained its hostility towards itself. ’
But no matter what.
Jiang Cang was walking, while glancing at the bloodstains on the ground from time to time, as if he was walking with the bloodstains, cautious and cautious, not like he now knew that the giant snake was not escaping, and was hiding in the forest in front of him.
It's just that Wang Yue didn't care about these things.
On the contrary, when he took a few more steps, he suddenly made a "huh", turned his head sideways and said, "They are following?" ”
Wang Yue said, although he didn't stop, but his already unfast pace slowed down again, "Chen Zhong's words let them listen, no, listen to his footsteps, the six of them are here." ”
"Maybe." Jiang Cang didn't feel that he could change people's minds with a single word, but he felt that he could persuade and persuade, so that there were multiple people and multiple probe coordinates in this mission, at least save some time and be safer.
Besides, if you don't listen to it, you really have to persuade them, and you don't have to worry about their life and death, they belong to the free 'minesweeper'. ’
There is no way, the giant snake has restrained its hostility towards itself, if it is far away from it, it can only take people to explore it like it did just now.
It's not that he doesn't have a character, and he cares about people's lives. It's that they're not worth it, so what's there to say.
And it didn't take long for the six people to catch up with Jiang Cang and the others along the bloodstains on the ground.
Especially the current big man, after seeing Jiang Cang and the others in front of him, he also chased after him, dispelling the embarrassment and said: "What Brother Jiang said from the bottom of my heart, let me be ashamed."
"Brother Jiang's righteousness!" The rest of the people also gave a salute, their mouths were sharper than their hands, and Wang Yue didn't know what to say about this face-to-face conversation.
"Ahh Wang Yue didn't know what to say, so he just forgave them, and after saying "I'll say it after the matter is done", he bowed to Jiang Cang, and then walked forward.
Jiang Cang went back to everyone, didn't talk so much to them, keep walking, anyway, the pathfinder came, it was more good than bad.
And sure enough.
The six of them followed Jiang Cang and the others for a few steps, and they felt that it was not safe to stand anywhere in the forest, so they simply scattered in all directions, separated by a distance of about ten meters, and searched forward.
Because they feel that if they and the others get together, they will die, die, and they won't even have a chance to escape, so it's better to stand at the opening point now, and when they find out the danger, they can still maneuver around and 'dodge', and let their companions delay time first.
But no matter how they stood, they all spread out in the back position, some distance from the location of the blood stain in front of them, which was instinctively afraid, thinking that the giant snake would be on this 'blood trail line'.
And Jiang Cang, according to their position, went to the right front again, so as to ensure that when he stepped into the coordinate circle, according to the position where everyone was scattered now, he could find the giant snake as soon as possible, or be discovered by the giant snake.
And it's getting closer and closer.
When Jiang Cang walked into the marking circle, his consciousness was released in an instant, his eyes were night vision, and he continued to walk forward.
However, although his consciousness was not affected, he could see that there were many trees nearby, and some trees were blooming luxuriantly in the spring, blocking a lot of vision.
Twenty or thirty meters away, nothing could be seen, and the weeds and shrubs under the shadows of the trees overlapped in the night.
But when he walked about 20 meters, accompanied by the quiet night, there was a sudden muffled sound of 'rustling' and 'dong', as well as the cries for help of the two knights, as if there were still corpses on the ground.
Looking to the right for a while, several large trees were collapsed by the huge force.
Jiang Cang saw that the giant snake was indeed hiding near the forest, and as long as someone was about to touch it, it would attack first.
"Get out of the way!" When Wang Yue saw this scene, he turned around and raised his sword and rushed towards the giant snake that was chasing the other person.
Unfortunately, Wang Yue was a hundred meters away from it, and by the time he caught up, the man had already died in the belly of the snake, surrounded by a mess of trees.
At the same time, Jiang Cang didn't care about the last three people hiding behind the surrounding trees, but instead drew the double knives on his waist, and when Wang Yue, who was full of anger, and fought with the giant snake, he bypassed nearby, preparing to find the right opportunity to give the giant snake a fatal blow, as if it had been sneaking up on itself.
And with the sound of 'bang' like a steel strike.
The giant snake hissed and chirped, flapping its tail from time to time, and the giant force brought down several nearby trees, and it made a 'boom' sound, but it couldn't help Wang Yue, who was very skillful.
On the contrary, Wang Yue sometimes found the right opportunity, flashed by the tree, and stabbed the wound that Jiang Cang had chopped, so that the giant snake was more and more coiled together, but he did not leave this forest.
And it was also at this time.
Thirty meters away from the battle group, Jiang Cang clinged to a tree, climbed the branches in a few steps, stepped between several trees, and when he came to the giant snake war group, in Wang Yue's lining struggle, he jumped forward, the short knife went down, charged a stab, and the sound of '呑呑', the short knife stuck into the gap in the scale armor above its head!
At the same time, the long knife slashed diagonally behind it, and suddenly pierced its eyelids, and the 'poof' sound pierced its eyes and pierced its brain!
With another turn, the long knife slashed through its eyeball, and part of the brain tissue stirred up.
Although the nerves of the snake are distributed throughout the body, even if the head is cut off, the nerves will not die, but the brain of the dominant idea is always shattered, so that the giant snake suddenly swings its head in the dying struggle, and the momentum hits.
For a while, the 'hiss' double knives fell off the flesh and blood, Jiang Cang had nowhere to borrow strength, he was thrown down by the giant snake, and the 'poof' hit a tree, a little dust fell, and the short knife took off his hand and stuck obliquely into the ground, straight into the hilt.
But fortunately, he was protected by leather armor, wolf skin, and 'tenacious energy', and the injury was not serious, but his qi and blood were weak, and it was good to recuperate for two days.
But if it is replaced by those chivalrous men with a physique of 3, this collision will be dead.
And with the sound of the snake's tail hitting the earth.
Jiang Cang took a few deep breaths, stood up within four or five breaths, picked up the short knife, and retreated backwards, so as not to spread to himself and aggravate the injuries caused by the giant snake that was hovering the ground in the forest in front of him.
Including Wang Yue and the others also stood behind a few big trees, looking at the mighty power of the giant snake before its dying struggle, the big trees around them fell and the ground under their feet trembled, and they were all a little shocked.
It wasn't until a dozen breaths had passed, and blood was oozing from the snake's scales, that the serpent slowly calmed down, and 'boomed' lay flat on the ground full of dirt ditches and broken branches.
Wait a few more moments.
Jiang Cang sensed that the task point had disappeared, so he walked to the side of the giant snake.
"Dead.." Wang Yue also walked over to take a look, but he saw the remaining three people in the distance, as if they were watching around a pile of things, but they were thinking of the 'Jiaolong Secret Treasure' in their hearts, so they nodded towards Jiang Cang and walked there.
Jiang Cang saw it, and glanced at a hundred meters away, the trees were tiled, his eyes were not affected, and he could see that there were just some ordinary jewelry.
At this point, he thought about it again, and suddenly slashed the snake's belly with a long knife, and with a 'hiss' sound, the scale armor was no longer hard as before, and it was easily broken.
The tip of the 'hula' knife was raised, and he rummaged through the flesh.
Jiang Cang finally peeled off a fist-sized 'snake gall' or 'demon beast's inner dan. ’
If you guess correctly, this thing is the real 'Dragon Secret Treasure!' ’
And at this time, I still have a memory about the 'giant snake', that is, the task process 'playback and completion'. ’
Roughly speaking, the giant snake swallowed an immortal medicine left by the Nanhua Immortals some time ago, and then it became invulnerable, and opened its mind again, and it can be called a 'demon beast'.
It's just that after it can cultivate, in order to be able to exert and perfect the medicinal power, it is mixed with its own essence and blood to condense it, so that all the demon essence of flesh and blood in its body is concentrated on this 'snake gall', so that it is both medicine and demons.
And it is also through this memory.
Jiang Cang looked at this 'Inner Pill', and felt that this thing was not only a treasure, but also a 'medicinal property' far greater than the previous immortal medicine, which could be called a natural 'Immortal Pill Inner Pill'!
And such a 'fairy medicine' can be matched with the 'elixir lead' mentioned in this task! ’
Especially after this 'Neidan' was taken out, Jiang Cang also saw that the scale armor on the snake's body was dull, like a deflated ball, and the 'Dang' fell a little.
There are also a lot of 'withering', revealing the bright red sinew that is hidden underneath.
Such a bloody scene, just like the memory of what he wanted to see, the essence of the demonic power of this giant snake was concentrated in this 'Neidan', and now that Neidan was taken, then its Taoism would definitely be dispersed, and the flesh and bones and ordinary pythons had no intention.
And while Jiang Cang was waiting to see what the value of this giant snake was.
The eyes of Wang Yue and the others were attracted by a snake's nest behind a big tree, where an ancient sword was now placed, as well as some jewels, gold and silver that glittered in the night.
Even when they saw Jiang Cang as if he was taking snake gall from a distance, they didn't turn their eyes.
Because not to mention that Jiang Cang contributed the most in this battle, they didn't want to grab anything. To put it bluntly, they think that no matter how good that snake gall is, as long as it can't make people become 'immortals', it is really better to take some treasures.
And if the snake gall of the giant snake can really make people become immortals, how can the 'snake fairy' be killed by himself and others?
They don't know about cultivation and alchemy, so they think that snake gall is at most a 'rare thing' that strengthens the body or has a gimmick.
But it's also at this time.
With Jiang Cang coming.
Wang Yue finally glanced at the sword in the snake nest, thinking that Jiang Cang had the greatest credit this time, so he first pointed to these treasures and swords, and asked Jiang Cang, "What does Chen Zhong want?" ”
Wang Yue felt that the snake gall was not very valuable, so he wanted to share Jiang Cang a little more, and wanted to have a relationship with this master knight, saying that he could not take care of each other in the future.
"Brother Jiang?" The remaining three also looked at Jiang Cang, they knew that their battle was completely futile, and they didn't dare to pick it.
"Everyone, please." Jiang Cang saw that they kept letting go, so he also took a few steps forward, took some gold casually, and put it in his pocket.
After all, it's not a meta thing, and it's troublesome to bring more, just enough to use.
"Then this sword. . . I took it." Wang Yue took the sword and said to Jiang Cang.
Jiang Cang took a look, it was not a yuan thing, it was not a famous product, casually.
Therefrom.
Wang Yue accepted the sword, those gold and silver treasures, just divide them, he felt that a sword was worth the trip, and he didn't want anything else.
Wait until the end.
Everyone picks and chooses, and there are still a lot of treasures left.
Wang Yue saw it and felt pity, and also said to the remaining people, preparing to go to the nearby village to find some cloth and other objects, wrap the things and take them away, and wait for the money from the sale to fill the homes of the dead.
And when Jiang Cang heard this, he was not in a hurry to go back to Penglai, and then took another turn.
Because the simplest, the 'Jiaolong Secret Treasure' is a secret that does not leak out, and now that he is a partner, how can he not wait for the matter to be over, and leave first.
To be honest, if there are other people who want to leave first, in order to prevent the person who leaves from leaking the news and attracting outsiders, he will detain the person who is leaving.
But then.
The people came and went all the way, and there was nothing to do.
The treasures were safe and secure, and on the morning of the second day, they were all delivered to the Heroes Building.
It's also noon today.
Jiang Cang was ready to leave.
But when Wang Yue heard the news, he didn't know what he remembered, or he felt that Jiang Cang was chivalrous and could make a promise, so after disposing of the jewelry, he took the sword and came to Jiang Cang's house, and whispered to Jiang Cang, who was packing his luggage,
"Chen Zhong, I have something to say, and this matter is related to the life of my family, if Chen Zhong has no intention, he should not listen to it. If you are interested, after January, at the beginning of April, we will meet in the Chang'an Hero Building. ”
"General Wang, please speak." Jiang Cang clenched his fists, and felt that Wang Yue's expression was so solemn, it shouldn't be a trivial matter, and there shouldn't be any big tasks.
"Do you know Cao Cao?" Wang Yue asked rhetorically, saw Jiang Cang nodding, and walked half a step forward, although he heard no movement outside the door, he still lowered his voice even more,
"Some time ago, Cao Cao chased Dong... After the defeat of the chasing division, one of the people who claimed to be the messenger of Cao Cao came to find me in the hero's building. He recommended my swordsmanship to Cao Cao, and wanted me to spend some time and go to Chen Liu's place to drink and be a guest, and meet Cao Cao. And a few years ago, when I followed the first emperor, I had never met Cao Cao a few times, so I was a little rusty."
When Wang Yue said this, he smiled a little bitterly, "Especially now that I am following the Taishi and opposing him." Whether this feast is good or bad, no one knows... In this regard, I would like to implore Tatsu Bell to walk with me. I think that as long as it is not a siege by a large army, with the martial arts of you and me, we can definitely kill it!
And I think about it carefully, there are countless people who have this martial arts! ”
Wang Yue's words fell, and he gave Jiang Cang a big salute, and it could be seen that he really wanted to see Cao Cao and find another way for himself to live.
It can also be seen that he is very righteous and wants to introduce Jiang Cang.
Of course, there are dangers, but they are common, and no one will be less.
When Jiang Cang heard this, he naturally agreed.
Without it, it's not who you take refuge into, but you go to Penglai by yourself, and after handing over the task, it is estimated that you will have nothing to do, and wait for the refining of medicine.
In this boring time, I must go around to see if there are other opportunities, and I can't just sit idle.
Again, that's the same sentence.
Everyone has improved, and so have themselves.
But if they progress faster than themselves, they have regressed, and there is nothing to quibble.
Subsequently.
As soon as the glass of wine passed, a word fell.
Jiang Cang set out from Chang'an, did not stop all the way, and returned to the East China Sea Country for nearly ten days.
I found the boat I was hiding again, pasted a chamophone on it, and went to Penglai.
Wait a few days to pass.
I met Zuo Ci.
Roughly talking about his own affairs, it is nothing more than encountering a giant snake and slashing it with a knife.
Seeing that this snake was bizarre, he thought about whether he could use the medicine, and came to Penglai to talk about it, so that he could take a look.
And Zuo Ci heard what Jiang Cang said, except that he felt that Jiang Cang was too lucky, he didn't say anything about 'Dancheng' quasi-letter, nor did he say whether it could be done, so he began to ponder.
Jiang Cang saw it, and vaguely felt that he couldn't get out for ten days and eight days, so he didn't have anything to say, and then said goodbye, set off for Chang'an, went to find Wang Yue, and Chen stayed for a drink.
