Chapter 27: A Trap in the Forest
Xiang Qingwu twisted his eyebrows, and his body bowed forward to scatter the firelight with internal force, at this moment, there was a sudden knocking sound in his ears, the sound was like thunder, although it was gentle but it made people instantly sober, Xiang Qingwu only felt that his eyes were flickering, and when he looked at it again, where was the white mist and firelight, and the man standing in front of her was obviously a man with a hideous face and wielding a dagger!
Xiang Qingwu's face changed, he quickly stepped back, and quickly saw the environment he was in.
I saw that there was still a forest around, but this forest was obviously different from the previous one, the forest was full of traces of fire, the trees had died, and there were pools of white ashes everywhere, and the sky above me was gray, as if it was covered with haze.
"Kill you, kill you......" The man screamed excitedly, waving his dagger everywhere like a blind man, and the veins on his face looked like they were going to explode with blood because of fear and anger.
The knocking sound had faded away, and nothing could be heard in the forest except for the hysterical roar of the men.
Xiang Qingwu glanced at the man, folded off the dead branch at hand with his backhand and threw it at him, and the branch with three points of internal force was whipped on the man's arm like a whip, the man screamed in pain, rolled the whites of his eyes with a grunt, and then tried his best to open his mouth like a fish lacking water, "fluttering" and falling to the ground.
"I... Where am I? The man looked at his palms and looked around blankly, his face uncertain.
"Do you remember what happened?" Xiang Qingwu walked over and asked.
When the man heard the voice, he subconsciously hid back, raised his eyes and saw that it was a strangely dressed beauty, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and when he got up, he touched the wound on his body, and immediately grinned dissatisfiedly, "Stinky girls dare to beat me, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will beat you to death!" ”
A murderous aura flashed in Xiang Qingwu's eyes in an instant, and he said coldly, "Say it again!" ”
The man's body trembled, and then he realized that he actually regarded the beautiful woman in front of him as his own stinky mother-in-law, and immediately nodded and apologized, "Oh, look at me who doesn't open the door, offended, offended." My name is Zhu Chengyuan, what do you call a beauty? ”
Xiang Qingwu had always hated this kind of oily tone, so he immediately disdained even perfunctory, and only asked, "How long have you been here?" Did you see a little monk? ”
Zhu Chengyuan's triangular eyes looked at Xiang Qingwu timidly, and sneered in his heart, a stinky girl actually dared to pretend to be an uncle in front of him, if it weren't for looking at her and still having some ability, otherwise he would have thrown a big-eared scraper on it, women are the same as the girls in his family, they are all cheap, and they are not obedient.
Thinking so in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, Zhu Chengyuan responded with a shy face, "I don't know how to get in, I came out with the other three people in the team to look for food, and one of them suddenly said that he saw a fire, so we chased after him, and then I didn't know anything, if it weren't for the beauty you woke me up, maybe I would still be confused, hehehe." ”
Xiang Qingwu saw that he couldn't find anything, so he turned around and left. Zhu Chengyuan saw that Xiang Qingwu was leaving, so he also followed.
"Beauty, you haven't told me what your name is, who are you the little monk you are looking for?" Zhu Chengyuan followed reluctantly.
Xiang Qingwu didn't bother to pay attention to him, she only quickened her pace and walked towards the hillside in the distance, she didn't know if the knocking sound she heard at that time was from Xulin, but there was no doubt that she was saved by the knocking sound, and she had to find the guy who took her bow and arrow as soon as possible, and she needed to find a place to dry her clothes and rest.
Zhu Chengyuan's physical fitness was not as good as Xiang Qingwu, and he began to pant for breath after a few minutes, he scolded his mother in his heart, and pretended to be pitiful and pleaded, "Beauty, beauty, you wait for me." I can't take it anymore, you go slowly-ah-"
The sudden exclamation made Xiang Qingwu stop immediately, and when he looked back, he saw Zhu Chengyuan hanging upside down from a tree, struggling and shouting in horror, "Beauty, beauty, save me!" ”
Xiang Qingwu glanced around vigilantly, there were dead branches and fallen leaves all around, and he didn't see half a figure, and because this area was full of dead trees with fallen leaves, he couldn't hide people at all.
Just when Xiang Qingwu felt strange, a lump suddenly bulged on the ground. Someone shouted, "Catch", and then something flew towards Xiang Qingwu. At this time, if it was an ordinary person, she would definitely reflexively reach out to pick it up, but unfortunately Xiang Qingwu was not, her subconscious idea was to wave her hand to block that thing. In the emergency, she heard someone whispering, and then there was an explosion of "bang", and the thing exploded the moment it hit the ground, and the thick smoke from the explosion instantly enveloped Xiang Qingwu.
The sound of the wind burst in from behind him, and the figure suddenly flashed silently from the smoke.
Xiang Qingwu noticed that the momentum around her body changed suddenly, she quickly turned around to avoid it, and at the same time, the move also came, and in the smoke, she couldn't see how she made a move, only heard someone curse and then stopped moving.
The smoke on the ground quickly cleared, and Xiang Qingwu and the sneak attacker were gone.
"Hello? What about people? Zhu Chengyuan looked at the empty ground and shouted in horror, but he didn't get any reply, there was no blood, no corpse, Xiang Qingwu disappeared out of thin air.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! The knocking sound rang out again.
Zhu Chengyuan looked into the distance in surprise and joy, "Is anyone there?" Help me, is anyone there? ”
In the windless forest, only the distant knock and Zhu Chengyuan's increasingly panicked cries remained.
......
Underneath the darkness is a two-meter-high sewer, with a jet-black stream of water carrying some fishy and unidentified objects flowing down slowly, and glowing moss grows on the stone-clad walls. The fire on the ground had not yet been extinguished, and there was a mess of things next to it, including dirty clothes, leftover food, a few bottles of muddy water, and some messy things.
Xiang Qingwu retracted his gaze, turned to look at the few people next to him, and asked coldly, "Where is my bow and arrow?" ”
One of them was stunned for a moment, then reacted and shook his head desperately, "We don't know, we've never seen any bows and arrows, it's Lu Yan, it must be his private collection!" It's none of our business! It was also Lu Yan's idea to ambush others here, and we were deceived by him! ”
"Yes, yes, this thing was all done by this guy Lu Yan, and it has nothing to do with us." Everyone should talk to each other, and they are anxious to clear themselves.
Lu Yan woke up with a humming and chirping, and scolded angrily when he heard these words, "Okay, you guys, you actually want to stab me twice while I'm not paying attention, and you don't want to think that if it weren't for me, you can live until now?" I was burned to death by that ghost fire a long time ago, how can I drop it, and now if something happens, I'm going to split it, right? As he spoke, Lu Yan reached out and took out the weapon in his pocket, but he took it out.
Someone gloated and reminded, "Lu Yan, your knife is in the hands of this beauty." ”
