Chapter 179 takes a turn for the better
Catching the three horse thieves can not only find out who is behind the scenes, but also use this to demand that the other party divide their own four horses, if they all refuse, then even if they rob openly, there will be a reason.
The three of them waited patiently until midnight, still not waiting for the shadow of the horse thief.
The team of these eight people should be the last, and the three horse thieves will definitely not let go of this one if they kill three teams along the way, but whether they will do it today is not certain.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and just when the three thought that the horse thief would not do it today, the situation appeared.
Yun Ruoyan, Yun Moxiao, and Zhuo Yifeng almost simultaneously felt the approach of the three not powerful aura.
Then three black figures crept out of the trees on the other side, stooping down towards the eight fireworks mutants.
Zhuo Yifeng bent his bow and aimed at one of them, and at this moment, the sound of chirping sounded in Yun Ruoyan's mind again.
"Master, those powerful breaths have reappeared. ”
Yun Ruoyan also felt that powerful aura, and the strange thing was that Yun Moxiao and Zhuo Yifeng didn't seem to feel it.
When Yun Ruoyan was about to ask, Zhuo Yifeng shot out the sword in his hand.
With a pop, the arrow sank into one of the thighs, but no one screamed in pain.
The man glanced back, then drew his arrow and tossed it aside, and continued toward the eight horses, as if he had not felt pain.
"What's going on?" Zhuo Yifeng was surprised.
"Look at the man's legs. Yun Ruoyan suppressed shock and said.
The three of them saw that the man's thigh wound was hit by an arrow, and black gas was constantly bubbling outward, and they had never seen this kind of situation, and they were shocked for a while.
"Master, that powerful aura is gone again. Chirp said again in Yun Ruoyan's mind.
At the same time, Zhuo Yifeng bent his bow again, this time using a tiger tooth arrow.
Zhuo Yifeng pulled the bow to the fullest, and suddenly let go of his hand, and the snow-white tiger tooth arrow rubbed against the air and brought out red sparks, directly shooting the head of one of them.
Poof, no*, no blood, and the black gas that burst out of the man's head turned out to be black.
The man's headless body fell to the ground, and black qi continued to pour out from his neck, gradually filling the entire camp, enveloping the eight people.
"Ahem... Why is there such a big black fog, I am about to wake up, cough cough cough. "One of the eight who slept like dead pigs finally woke up and coughed incessantly.
"What's going on, ahem. "The person who woke up also started coughing incessantly.
"Ahem, ahem, I'm out of breath, ahem, ahem. ”
The eight men let out a cry of pain at the same time.
"No, this fog is poisonous. As soon as Yun Ruoyan and the three of them came into contact with the mist, they noticed something strange and immediately retreated.
Yun Ruoyan retreated while taking out the antidote pill and distributing it to Yun Moxiao and Zhuo Yifeng to eat.
The three of them returned to the place where they had camped extremely quickly, took Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingchen and ran wildly in the opposite direction of the black mist, and only stopped to catch their breath after running for half a pillar of incense.
Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingchen didn't know the situation yet, they were just dragged and ran wildly, and now that there was finally a gap, Lin Qingxue couldn't help but ask curiously while gasping: "What's the situation, have you encountered the attack of a fierce beast?"
"It's not a monster, it's poison gas. Yun Ruoyan said, she told Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingchen what happened just now.
Yun Ruoyan had never seen such a situation, how could a good person keep emitting black gas outside? And that black gas was still poisonous!
Yun Ruoyan asked Jiu Jiu in her mind, and before Jiu Jiu could answer, she heard Lin Qingchen say: "I once saw in a book that a medicine person is very similar to what you said. ”
Lin Qingchen said that the appearance of medicine people is usually no different from ordinary people, but their will is controlled by their master.
Their masters are also their creators, and their masters generally use them to poison them, and if they are killed, they will release poison gas and die with them.
After Lin Qingchen finished speaking, he tweeted in Yun Ruoyan's mind and added that in addition to the medicine man, there is also a situation, that is, the demon puppet, and the legend is that the demon puppet is also in that situation.
But the demon clan was sealed thousands of years ago, so it is more likely that Lin Qingchen said it.
can refine the medicine man, that is definitely a powerful poisoner, his purpose is just to poison the horse is not a poison man, it can be seen that he doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, he must have been bought by a certain family to spend a lot of money to do this.
The breath she and Jiu Jiu noticed should have been from the poisoner.
"Brother, Zhuo Yifeng, did you notice that a powerful aura appeared from time to time just now. Yun Ruoyan asked.
Yun Moxiao and Zhuo Yifeng glanced at each other and shook their heads at the same time.
Yun Ruoyan was even more strange in her heart, why did she and Jiu Jiu feel it, but Yun Moxiao didn't feel it, it is said that Yun Moxiao's cultivation is higher than hers, and it should be easier to detect.
"Why don't we go back and have a look. Lin Qingchen said suddenly: "I've only seen the medicine man in the book, and I really want to see it with my own eyes." ”
"I'm also a little curious. Lin Qingxue answered, she had practiced her courage in Xiaozhuyuan during this time.
When the sun came out and the fog had almost dispersed, a few people went back to check. I saw that the eight men and eight horses were all poisoned without exception, and all of them had bleeding gums, round eyes, and blue eyes.
Lin Qingchen and Jiu Jiu couldn't tell what kind of poison this was, in Jiu Jiu's words, a new variety of poison was invented every day in this world, and this was probably a new variety of poison.
Lin Qingchen used a silver needle and a porcelain bottle to take some blood from one of them, ready to study it later. Instead of burying the eight corpses, they prepared to go to the Void Underworld Academy to report the matter to the Empty Underworld Academy so that they could investigate who was behind it.
Originally, they thought that they could get a few horses, but now there was no hope at all, and the few people could only continue to walk quickly. Now it is the third day, and the day after tomorrow is the deadline, seeing that they can't catch up, at night, a few people decided to let Yun Moxiao take Yun Ruoyan to go first as soon as it was dawn.
Although Yun Moxiao can control the sword, the sword consumes extremely spiritual power, and he must rest on the way, so the two of them have to set off early.
The next day, at dawn, the two got up and prepared to go.
Yun Moxiao had just raised the yellow sword light, and suddenly the sound of a large horse team running from a distance came, and several people looked at each other with a look of surprise on their faces.
If there is really no way, you can only grab it.
Yun Moxiao put away his sword light, and several people stood in the middle of the road. The sound of horses' hooves grew louder and louder, and in a few moments the caravan appeared at the bend in the valley in the distance.
Yun Ruoyan frowned, because she saw the people she hated in the horse team, Pei Ziao and Wang Meng.
How did these two get together?
What made Yun Ruoyan even more strange was that Wang Meng obviously did not participate in the trial of the Royal Secret Realm, how could he appear here, could it be that he was here like Yun Moxiao?
Wang Meng rode a horse and ran at the front, obviously the leader of this team, Pei Ziao followed behind him.
Yun Ruoyan's gaze swept over the rest of the horse team, except for Pei Ziao, there was no one she was familiar with, and there was no difference between the costumes of leaving the country and the Yue country, so it was impossible to tell whether they were Yue or Yue from the costumes.
The sight of more than a dozen fireworks horses galloping in is quite spectacular.
Yun Moxiao stood in front of several people, Zhuo Yifeng's bow was also equipped with arrows, and Yun Ruoyan was also ready to summon the Flying Demon Blade at any time.
Although there are many people on the other side, when it comes to strength, it is Yun Ruoyan's side that has the upper hand. If the caravan does not stop, they will attack it at once, neither killing nor fighting, but will gallop away as soon as they have enough four horses.
Fortunately, Wang Meng saw Yun Ruoyan and the others from a distance, so he raised his hand and signaled the horse team to slow down, and before they could reach them, the horse team stopped.
Wang Meng smacked his horse and walked in front of a few people, he looked at Yun Ruoyan and asked, "Princess Yu, why don't you hurry up and stop here for what?"
"Don't call me Princess Yu. Yun Ruoyan looked up at Wang Meng and said, "I'm not yet." ”
"Prince, we have been plotted by someone, and all our mounts have been poisoned and died, and we have been walking for two days now. ”
Yun Ruoyan had already told Yun Moxiao about the competition agreement before, so Yun Moxiao knew about Wang Meng, and Yun Moxiao had also seen Wang Meng in the Four Kingdoms Auction House in Yuelu Villa.
However, Wang Meng had never seen Yun Moxiao.
"May I ask what is the name of this son?" Wang Meng looked at Yun Moxiao and asked.
"In Xia Yun Mo Xiao, he is Yun Ruoyan's brother. Yun Moxiao introduced himself.
"It turned out to be King Yu... Miss Yun's brother, fortunately, fortunately. Wang Meng immediately clenched his fists and said, if he hadn't heard Yun Ruoyan talk about this person a long time ago, Yun Moxiao didn't think he hated it.
Yun Moxiao returned the salute with a fist, and said: "If the few of us have been walking without horses, I am afraid that we will not be able to catch up with the trial of the Empty Underworld Academy, and I don't know if we can borrow three horses from Wang Gongzi." ”
"Why not?" said Wang Meng very cheerfully.
Wang Meng replied without hesitation, to the surprise of Yun Ruoyan and the others, and when the few people were still a little stunned, Wang Meng had already asked the people behind him to send out four fireworks horses to Yun Ruoyan and a few people.
"Thank you!" Yun Moxiao and Yun Ruoyan hugged their fists and thanked them, then turned over and set off with Wang Meng's team.
Because of the urgency of time, without too much nonsense, the horse team immediately set off in the direction of the Void Academy.
At noon, everyone also rode on their horses to eat dry food, and after an afternoon of galloping, until night fell and could not hurry, the horse team stopped and camped to rest.
Yun Ruoyan and the five of them lit a bonfire alone and rested on the side.
Pei Ziao is now finally no longer as obsessed with Yun Ruoyan as before, but his eyes still fall on her from time to time, and Yun Ruoyan just doesn't exist as if he doesn't exist.
Now Yun Ruoyan is focusing on Wang Meng, why is he here?
