Chapter 2: The Man in Black
Outside Wujia Village are endless mountain ranges, verdant and beautiful, and one of them is particularly high, called Yuzhi Mountain. There is a special stone on the mountain, which has a trace of heat to the touch, and the stone bath made of it has a good warmth effect in winter, and is very popular in the village. According to the old people in the village, the mountain used to be the residence of a master of the instrument, and after being known, an endless stream of people came here to look for the mansion left by the master, but there was no gain, and slowly no one went to the mountain to look for it in the past few decades. However, some enthusiastic arteculators will occasionally point out the arteculators in Wujia Village, so in recent years, the arteculators in Wujia Village have been stronger than other villages. No objects were found, and the villagers of Wujia Village still went up the mountain from time to time. The reason is also very simple, there are many kinds of mushrooms on the mountain, and the size is also large, and the taste is more delicious than that of other mountains, and it is full of aroma and appetizing when used to make soups and stews. In addition to the mushrooms, the stream water is very clear, trickling stream, slowly gathering in the lake at the foot of the mountain, from time to time in the stream you can see a few tail flicking fish swimming freely, catch a few, can also quench the cravings. There are also many kinds of animals in the mountains, but they are all elves, and only experienced hunters can catch them, Xu Xuan has not even caught a rabbit.
Xu Xuan and Wan'er went up the mountain today to dig up some fungi and drop a few big fish, and cook them for Grandpa Atai tomorrow. As soon as I arrived at the foot of the mountain, I met Uncle Ali who came down from the mountain.
"Little ones, go up the hill to play?" Uncle Ali shouted at them as he watched the two from afar.
"Uncle Ali, have you caught a rabbit again?" Wan'er's eyes were sharp, and she couldn't help but swallow when she saw the rabbit dangling in Uncle Ali's hand.
Uncle Ali is good at barbecue, especially rabbit meat. Tearing open the golden crispy skin is just baked slightly yellowed rabbit meat, take a bite, will unconsciously bite off the second bite, one bite after another can not stop. The secret of Uncle Ali's barbecue is not only the time to grill the meat, but also his special spices, and of course, what is inside, no one knows.
"Haha, I was lucky today, I caught two rabbits, and tomorrow Grandpa Atai's birthday, let's eat together the little guy." Uncle Ali smiled. Uncle Ali is an instrument master, and his instrument soul is the same as Ah Hu, which can give him the power to change, and he is also Ah Hu's teacher. A few years ago, after Uncle Ali knew about Ah Hu's bullying of Xu Xuan, he cleaned up Ah Hu and asked Ah Hu to apologize to Xu Xuan and Wan'er, Ah Hu no longer sneered at Xu Xuan, on the contrary, Xu Xuan also bumped into Ah Hu secretly putting some daily necessities at Xu Xuan's doorstep.
"Uncle Ali, let's go up the mountain to pick some mushrooms, tomorrow the mushroom chicken soup with roast rabbit meat. Xu Xuan couldn't help but smile when he looked at Wan'er who kept swallowing saliva, Wan'er, this little gluttonous cat, couldn't take his eyes off the rabbit.
"That's right, mushrooms. When Wan'er patted her head and turned around to say goodbye to Uncle Ali, Uncle Ali "shhh
"Don't make a sound. Uncle Ali gestured with his mouth, and then he pointed to a big rock not far away for Xu Xuan and the others to dodge.
Xu Xuan pulled Wan'er and ran towards the stone, but Wan'er was obedient and didn't make a sound.
The stone was large enough to cover two people. Xu Xuan and Wan'er had just hid when they heard movement not far away.
It was the sound of horses' hooves, and the sound of whirring and flapping wings, wings? Could it be the flat-winged bird that the village master said could be trained like a horse for people to ride?
Xu Xuan's curiosity became more and more intense, he observed, there was a gap under the stone, just enough to see the situation on Uncle Ali's side, Wan'er had already found the gap, and was waving his hand to let Xu Xuan come over and take a look.
Xu Xuan saw the flat-winged bird for the first time, the bird is one foot tall, the whole body is black, the hair at the head and tail of the bird is dark red, the tail is not long, which is convenient for dexterous turning, the beak is flat, it cannot be used to attack people, the wings are stretched out about two people long, this bird has a docile temperament, and after being used to train into a mount, it is undoubtedly of great help. But the flat-winged bird is very rare, even in the Rising Sun City next to Wujia Village, there are only one or two big families, but now there are four, each of them is sitting on a masked black-clothed person, the flat-winged bird is followed by six horses, each horse is tall and strong, and immediately sits the black-clothed man in the same attire, and their group is coming out from the direction of Yuzhi Mountain.
"Huh?" said the man in black on one of the flat-winged birds, who noticed Uncle Ali.
Uncle Ali looked at the unknown crowd, frowned slightly, and was just about to step forward to talk, when the accomplice next to the man in black who spoke out pulled out his bow and aimed at Uncle Ali is arrow.
Uncle Ali grabbed the oncoming arrow and broke it in two and left it on the ground. There is no need to talk anymore, for such unreasonable people, hard fists are the truth.
Unexpectedly, the man in black at the front of the voice just now blocked the accomplice who was still trying to shoot the second arrow, "You are an instrumentaturist." The man in black asked coldly. On closer inspection, the man in black was dressed slightly differently than the others, the masked black cloth had a golden pattern on the edge, the pattern was like the sun, and the black clothes on his body also had the same pattern, and the other men in black were faintly approaching him, he was undoubtedly the leader of this group.
"Yes. Uncle Ali replied as he took the sledgehammer behind his back. In the early stage of the soul can not leave the body, the weapon needs to take advantage of the hand, Uncle Ali is powerful, with this giant hammer with a little black rock to enhance the weight and toughness, he can use all his strength without any scruples, just one blow, Xu Xuan has seen, the half-human-high hard stone will also turn into ashes.
"I didn't expect us to be seen by the Instrumentalist. The man in black touched his wrist, but there was nothing on his wrist, "You are an instrumentaturist, so I can't leave you alone." ”
The man in black made a look, and the accomplice of archery shot five arrows in one breath, this is a chain of arrows, which requires super fast speed and extraordinary strength to shoot arrows with a bow, and ordinary people can only shoot three arrows when they practice to the extreme.
Although these five arrows were shot at different times, they were almost side by side by the time Uncle Ali saw them, one arrow in the front door, one arrow in the neck, one arrow in the chest, and two arrows aimed at his thigh. Uncle Ali didn't have time to turn sideways except for retreating, but seeing that Uncle Ali didn't avoid it, he swung down his right hand with a hammer from the top of his head, knocking down three arrows from his head, neck and chest, and when something flashed on his left hand, he heard two "ding" sounds and stopped the flying arrows in his legs.
Xu Xuan looked at it with wide eyes, it turned out that Uncle Ali was still holding a black hammer the size of a fist in his left hand, and one end of the hammer was still tied with an iron chain, which could be thrown, and it was this arrow that stopped the man in black.
Before Uncle Ali could catch his breath, five more arrows flew in, and these five arrows were aimed at Uncle Ali's lower plate, and when he was about to jump up and dodge, he faintly saw the archer raise his hand.
It's not good, he can't jump, Xu Xuan almost wanted to scream, he saw it, behind these five arrows, the archer also hid an arrow with extremely fast speed, if it weren't for Xu Xuan's long-term concentration and cultivation to bring him the improvement of his eyesight, hearing, smell, and taste, he wouldn't have noticed this arrow. The first five arrows are decoys, and if you jump, you will hit the invisible arrow that is truly full of killing intent.
Uncle Ali was worthy of experience, the subtle movements of the man in black made him suspicious, he toe a little, bowed forward, hammered out in his left hand, under the control of the iron chain, twisted five arrows, and after avoiding the deadly arrow above his head, he rushed to the archer's flat-winged bird.
The flat-winged bird that had landed was frightened and flapped its wings uncontrollably to take off, and Uncle Ali used the hammer of his left hand to wrap around the bird's head again, and then jumped high, and the giant hammer in his right hand swung down heavily.
Seeing that the giant hammer was about to fall on the top of the archer's head, there was a "bang", and I don't know what blocked the falling giant hammer, Uncle Ali's tiger mouth cracked in this collision, and the whole person fell uncontrollably to the left side of the archer.
Fortunately, Uncle Ali landed steadily after adjusting his posture in the air, he raised his head, and saw that it was the black-clothed man wearing a gold-rimmed black cloth mask in the middle, and his eyes couldn't help but darken.
