Liya suddenly squeezed between Gao Hui and Li Jingzhi, hugged the big bag in her arms, and whispered, "Many people are staring at me." ”

I looked around, and there were quite a few people standing in the depression, seemingly doing their own thing, but they looked at us from time to time.

These people are afraid that they are eyeing the contents of Liya's bag.

The Taoist priests who come here are basically light and simple, at most they bring bottles of water, take some bread and biscuits, and there are very few people like Liya who carry a bulging bag.

The way we came was gone, after all, we were going to survive seven days here, and we couldn't do it without food.

"Get out of here and go into the woods." I whispered.

Li Jingzhi and Gao Hui protected Liya, and after my palace, the four of them walked into the forest.

Liya's voice trembled a little: "Why is my back cold, I am very panicked." ”

"Don't panic, if you can beat it, you can beat it, if you can't beat it, give them the backpack, you can't die for something to eat." Gao Hui said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jingzhi suddenly waved his hand and slapped it in the bamboo basket on his waist, and the corpse insect rushed directly forward.

"Call it back." Seeing a cold light suddenly flashing in the forest, my heart was cold, and I was busy talking to Li Jingzhi.

He whistled, and the corpse worm twisted sharply on the edge of the woods to see how it had dodged the knife.

"You go backwards." I yelled and rushed straight up.

At the same time, a person ran out of the woods, looking thin and small, but his movements were very agile, holding a machete in one hand.

In the past month of recuperation, I have been training in the backyard, watching that person come over, and my body has instinctively reacted to block him and fight with him.

When he saw me, the man sneered, "If you can't grab food, you won't lose if you die." ”

As he spoke, his moves became more and more ruthless.

When the two of us were fighting, two more men ran out of the woods, targeting the bag in Liya's hand.

"Give them a bag and you run." I shouted to Leah.

Gao Hui and Li Jingzhi are not combat-oriented, they can still deal with those two men at first, but after a while, they will be a little unbearable.

Gao Hui was knocked down by a punch from a person, and at the same time, the man's wrist flipped over, and a sharp knife appeared in the palm of his hand, slashing towards his neck.

When Gao Hui avoided back, he tripped over a stone, fell to the ground, and accidentally avoided the knife, and just about to get up, he was kicked in the head and knocked unconscious.

Li Jingzhi was not so lucky, his arm was slashed, and his arm was bleeding.

Liya struggled to throw her backpack far away, and then helped Li Jingzhi to step back.

"Tuzi, let's go." Liya shouted at me.

I glanced at Gao Hui and asked Liya to take Li Jingzhi away first, and when they left, I took out the copper coin sword, secretly accumulated, and the little thin dragon on my right wrist turned red again.

The thin man swung his machete at me, while the two strong men who came out later went after Liya and Li Jingzhi.

I was secretly shocked that they didn't go to pick up the backpack because they didn't do it to grab food.

As soon as I gritted my teeth, I directly held the copper coin sword, and smashed it towards the thin man's machete with brute force.

The thin man was shocked, took a few steps back, his hands trembled uncontrollably, glanced at Gao Hui, and then rushed straight towards me, but he made a move in the middle of the road and went to Gao Hui's side.

He was extremely fast, and in an instant, he ran to Gao Hui's side, and the machete was about to stab Gao Hui.

I hurriedly ran over, and saw that the knife was about to be stabbed into Gao Hui's body, but the thin man suddenly froze, and the knife hung in front of Gao Hui's chest.

It was also like I had hit a transparent wall and couldn't move forward.

At Gao Hui's feet appeared a shadow that looked exactly like him, staring at the thin man with a grim gaze, five of them open in front of his face.

Suddenly, he roared angrily, and his hands jerked forward, and the thin man fell directly to the ground, sliding a long distance.

He sneered, waved his right hand, and only heard a pop, and the machete in the thin man's hand actually pierced his own stomach.

And the whole time, the man acted like a fool and didn't react at all.

"Take Gao Hui away." He said.

I paused, walked over to the dead thin man first, grabbed another machete, and carried Liya's backpack in front of me, and then carried Gao Hui into the woods.

The shadow followed me all the time.

"Who are you?" I asked him.

He replied: "You don't need to know, the main thing is that you will protect Gao Hui in the past few days, and after you leave here, I will fulfill one of your wishes." ”

I looked at him in amazement, and I breathed a big sigh.

"Do you know what those people were up to?" I asked, puzzled.

These three people are not like Taoist priests, although some Taoist priests can do kung fu with fists and feet, but there are very few who are so powerful.

The thin man just now had a ruthless move, he was a practitioner, and he was obviously a person who often got blood.

"I'm here to kill the four of you." He said lightly.

I frowned, "The four of us?" ”

It's understandable that you want to kill me, but why kill Leah?

His body became weaker and weaker, and he hurriedly said: "Protect Gao Hui." And then it was gone.

At the same time as he disappeared, Gao Hui on my back suddenly became a lot heavier, almost crushing me to my knees.

I took Gao Hui to a mountain col, found a place where the grass was relatively high, and then put him down.

I don't know what happened to Liya and Li Jingzhi now.

In the second half of the night, Gao Hui didn't wake up, I was really anxious, and I went directly to pinch his person, and it took a lot of strength before he opened his eyes.

"Where is this?" He covered his mouth, and his eyes were red from pain.

I leaned my bag against him and said, "In the mountains, you hide here and don't come out, I'll go find Li Jingzhi and Liya." ”

He struggled to get up, and I grabbed him, "Don't make a mess, hide here, and look at the bag." ”

He sighed and said guiltily, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

With a wave of my hand, I grabbed my machete and the copper coin sword and walked to the depression.

We were in the southeast corner of the depression, while Liya and Li Jingzhi ran to the northwest corner.

When I was in the village, I had to go up the mountains almost every day, and I walked in the mountains and forests much faster than other Taoist priests, and the movement was smaller.

After walking a few steps, I heard someone talking, and quietly leaned over, and found seven or eight Taoist priests gathered together, staring at the two small loaves of bread in the middle.

"One bite is not enough." A female Taoist priest choked up and said, "I don't want to stay here, I want to go home." ”

The male Taoist priest next to her said worriedly: "I also want to go back, but think about it, when we came in by car, we all sat for a day, how long did it take to walk back on two legs?" Besides, if you don't eat or drink, you have to die of exhaustion halfway through. ”

Among them, there was an old Taoist priest in his sixties, touching his goatee and saying: "I can't afford to be hungry, the beasts in the mountains and the leaves on the trees can be eaten. ”

He shook his head and said: "Someone wants to take advantage of the chaos to take people's lives, you also saw the fight in the depression just now, it was a real knife and a real gun." ”

They were all watching from the side when we were fighting!

The old man with the goatee said, "I have only seen such a battle thirty years ago, when no less than 100 people died in that Taoist battle, and there was no explanation afterwards. ”

"Hundred? But there are only more than 50 of us in total, are we all going to die? The female Taoist priest was so frightened that her tears flowed even more.

The old man with a goatee said: "Lonely and unheard, in the whole of China, there must be at least dozens of places where we are staying now." ”

"Then why kill those people?" Someone asked timidly.

"Who knows, maybe it's in the way of others." The old man with the goatee sighed.

I was frightened when I heard this, and I was even more worried about Liya and Li Jingzhi, and I was about to leave quietly, when I heard the crying female Taoist priest say: "The girl who ran in the northwest direction was caught, so isn't she dead?" ”

I was shocked, and I couldn't care about anything else, so I ran over and grabbed the female Taoist priest's arm, "Where was she caught?" ”

Several Taoist priests were taken aback and hurriedly got up and retreated.

The female Taoist priest timidly pointed to the north and said, "I saw her caught in the persimmon forest in the north." ”

"Thank you." I thanked her and ran to the persimmon forest.

I was so anxious that I was sweating, and Liya must not have anything to do.

I was afraid of being discovered, so I didn't dare to walk from the depression, and went over the mountain by detour, and when I ran to the edge of the persimmon forest, my right leg that had been broken before was a little trembling, and my thigh bone was faintly painful.

Endured the pain and walked to the persimmon forest, listening to the laughter of men and the screams of women.

The moment I heard Liya's scream, my heart felt like I had weighed a thousand pounds, and I couldn't hold the machete.

After getting closer, I saw a fire in the clearing, Liya was tied to the persimmon tree, a man was standing in front of the tree, from time to time took the ripe persimmon and threw it at Liya, the more Liya screamed, the happier he laughed.

Another man had already walked up to Liya and was touching her thighs.

Liya was stripped and gave birth to a camisole top and leggings, and her body was full of broken persimmons.

"Wang Er, don't throw it away, you still expect to rely on her to lure out those three people, how can you be frightened?" The man squatting in front of Liya said with a sneer, his hand slowly going up.

Wang Laoer, who threw persimmons, smiled and said, "Du Laosan, are you afraid of being frightened, are you not happy to play?" “

"Are you willing to play fool?" Du Laosan said, straightened up, and leaned his face towards Liya.

Liya slammed his head and spat in his face.

Du Laosan had a gloomy face, and slapped Liya with his backhand, directly hitting her to the corner of her mouth.

I clenched my machete and whispered close to them.

Wang Lao Er touched his chin and smiled evilly, "I have a crush on the girl who wields the sword, she has a waist and an ass, and she has energy." ”

"That's not simple, anyway, as long as she lives up, she dies in your bed, isn't it also death." Du Laosan laughed and reached out to grab Liya's shoulder straps.

I threw the copper coin sword aside, held the machete and slashed at Wang Laoer's shoulder, took out the dagger with my left hand, and stabbed it directly into his waist when he was crooked to the side, and then kicked the dagger on the dagger, and kicked the dagger into his body.

His eyes widened, and before he could say a word, he fell to the ground and did not move again.

Du Laosan was about to run, I rushed up with a machete, kicked him in the socket of the leg, and the machete was across his neck, "Say, who told you to kill us?" ”

He looked at me in astonishment, snorted coldly, seemed sure that I wouldn't kill him, and even wanted to stand up, "Threaten me? Dead, have you ever seen blood? ”

My eyes became colder and colder, and I didn't speak, but I pulled a hole in his neck with my hand.

His legs suddenly softened, his lips trembled, and he begged for mercy: "I don't know, we collect money to do things, and we never know who the employer is." ”

I watched as he threw his hands together, as if to resist, and bent his knees against his chest, forcing him to the ground on his back.

Du Laosan's face turned red in pain, and he screamed again and again, "I really don't know." ”

"And how did you find here?" I asked.

He trembled his lips and said, "It's the place given to us by the people above, and we hid here two or three days in advance, waiting for you to come." ”

I then asked, "Is there anyone else besides the three of you?" ”

His eyes flickered, as if he didn't want to speak.

I pressed my leg, and the knife pressed into it a few more points, and he immediately said, "According to the previous rules, there should be a few more waves of people." ”

"The old rules?" I raised an eyebrow.

He hurriedly said, "Yes, every year when the Taoist priests are fighting, we will receive an order to come and kill two or three Taoist priests. ”

My doubts are even heavier.

"Can you get the knife out of the way?" He said with a pale face.

I sneered, "I can't ......"

As I spoke, swallowing and spitting, I swiped hard with my eyes closed, blood splattered on my arm, and I got up from the ground with my machete, shaking my legs to untie the rope for Liya.

She didn't even have the strength to stand, so she threw herself forward, trying to hug my waist and stabilize my body, but I didn't have any energy, and we both fell to the ground together.

"Are you alright?" I struggled to my feet, took off my gown, and draped it over her.

She looked sluggish, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, "Tuzi ......"

After speaking, he hugged me and cried.

I patted her on the back, and I couldn't do it.

These days with her, I can also see that she is well protected by Li Jingzhi and Li Tai, looking eccentric, in fact, she has never experienced such a thing.

"Don't cry, let's get out of here first, I'm afraid someone else will find me." I say.

She nodded, and stood up with her mouth pouted.

I put out the fire and led her westward.

I came from the east, and I was afraid that if I met the Taoist priests who had just been there, it would be safer to walk from the west.

The mountain on the left and right is circular, and it just encloses the depression, so you can go back from any way.

Liya walked a few steps with me and said uncomfortably, "Their burned my skirt." ”

"I'll get you some clothes when I get you there." I say.

She hummed and grabbed my arm tightly.

Halfway through, I suddenly remembered Li Jingzhi, and was busy asking Liya, "Where is your senior brother?" ”

"He's gone to divert another group of people." She said.

It was almost dawn, and I hesitated, but decided to send Liya back first.

I sent Liya to the col and let her hide with Gao Hui, I put on a mask, put on a coat and a hat, and went out to rob Liya of a pair of jeans from another female Taoist priest's bag.

Put on her pants and she finally stopped crying.

I disguised my hiding place and sat down against the dirt wall, breathing a sigh of relief.

"Du Laosan said that there are still a few groups of people who want to kill the four of us." I analyzed: "They may be like Du Laosan and they hid on the mountain in advance and rushed up directly when they saw us; It is also possible to mix in with the Taoist priests and look for the right time. ”

Liya shook her head and said, "It's unlikely, if it's really mixed in the Taoist priest, we should be able to see it in the car." ”

"You can see it in the car, it's not good here, can you remember the faces of everyone in the car? Now that two Taoist priests are standing in front of us, can you be sure that they must be Taoist priests? I said.

Gao Hui agreed: "It is very likely that there are about fifty people in the car, too many faces, plus the people are scattered in this place, they are dressed as Taoist priests and mixed in, it is really difficult to recognize." ”

I sighed and said, "It's not easy to get through these seven days." ”

"But why did you kill us?" Liya wondered.

I frowned and looked at Liya carefully, she didn't know?

Gao Hui's face was complicated, he glanced at me, and said, "If you want to take my life, it is probably for the soul in my body, as for Yu Yang, she has offended so many people, it is not strange that someone wants to kill her." ”

"What about me and my brother?" Liya asked.

Gao Hui hooked the corners of his mouth and said meaningfully: "This is going to ask your senior brother." ”

I understood that although the four of us were hunted for different reasons, we were now grasshoppers on a rope.

"They sneaked in and committed murder, and Tianji Pavilion didn't care? Doesn't it mean that getting the title of Yutong is equivalent to getting the protection of Tianji Pavilion? I asked.

This question has been bothering me for a long time, both Liu Yuming and Liya swear that as long as they get the title of Yutong, they can get the protection of Tianji Pavilion, complete the work they give, and get money.

Gao Hui sneered: "So those people pick this time to start, and there will inevitably be casualties in the process of fighting, which is a tacit matter between Tianji Pavilion and the participating Taoist priests." “

As he spoke, he looked at me, "Before, in order to take revenge on you, Zhao Rou made a big deal about the dead man, and Tianji Pavilion reorganized it again in order to protect its reputation, and Zhao Rou was also blacklisted by Tianji Pavilion. ”

It turns out that there is such a lawsuit.

Since the purpose of killing me is different from theirs, who wants my life this time?

Old man or someone else?

Ye Wu is unlikely, he has a little commotion that Yin Long can't get, and judging from the last time he burned Xiao Yu's body, he wants to torture me and Xiao Yu even more, forcing me to stand by his side.

After thinking about it, I still feel that Lao Yutou is the most suspicious.

If I don't obey, he wants me to die.

"Let's have something to eat." Gao Hui took out a bag of shrimp crackers from Liya's violence and handed it to me.

I paused for a moment and looked at Riya.

She blushed and whispered, "I didn't expect this, I brought potato chips, shrimp crackers, and two bottles of Sprite." ”

Eighty percent of these sisters thought we were here for an outing.

"Eat." I didn't ask for it, there was no water in the first place, and the more I ate these things, the thirstier I became, "You eat less, and when it gets dawn, I'll go find you something to eat." ”

Liya's eyes lit up and she only took two sips of Sprite.

When the sun came out at dawn, I told them to wait here, and ran back to the persimmon forest where Liya was tied yesterday, thinking of picking a few persimmons from it.

As a result, when I went in, there were three new graves in the persimmon forest.

I stopped, didn't dare to move again, opened my yin eye with the rune paper, and made sure that there were no people or ghosts on all sides, so I climbed the tree and picked a few persimmons.

Then he picked up a few more sparrows and carried them back.

Thanks to the training in the backyard of the house these days, there has not been much progress in beating people, but there has been a lot of progress in bird fighting.

After eating the persimmons, I carried the bird and said, "Let's go over the hill to that side." ”

Seeing that neither of them understood much, I had to explain in detail: "I have left here several times, and it is inevitable that no one will notice, all need to be moved to a hiding place, and there is a puddle in the depression at the foot of the mountain, there should be no shortage of water in this place, maybe there is a river, and if there is no one side of the mountain, go to the other side to look." ”

Moreover, I am more interested in who to wash the bird and barbecue to eat, I am hungry.

When I fill my stomach, I will think about how to collect souls, earn points, and avoid pursuit.

I was right, beyond the top of the mountain, there was indeed a river at the foot of the mountain, and it was quite deep.

But when I walked hard, my scalp tingled.

There was a female corpse floating on the river, face down, with a shirt draped over her upper body, but naked underneath.

The river was flowing very fast, but she stopped and did not follow the river down.

Generally speaking, the person who drowns is a man face down and a woman face up, how can she be face down?

I found a long branch on the shore, and when I salvaged the woman's corpse, I almost sat on the ground.

This female corpse turned out to be the woman who told me last night that Liya was caught in the persimmon forest, how could she die in the river?

Moreover, looking at the bruises on his body, it was obvious that he had been insulted.

Gao Hui turned his back and took off his coat for me, "The deceased is the greatest, quickly help her cover up." ”

I busied myself covering her legs, and then took my coat out of my bag to cover her upper body.

Her eyes widened, full of unwillingness, and there were slap marks on both sides of her face.

"Bury it." I tried it on her forehead with a rune paper, and her soul was gone.

Gao Hui found a place halfway up the mountain, buried the woman, and lit incense sticks in front of the grave, leaving a bag of shrimp crackers as an offering.

I really can't get anything decent.

"Go upstream." I say.

Finding a place to clean up the river, I disposed of a few birds, put them in the grooves of the stones, and lit a fire under them.

Riya sat down in front of the fire with her arms crossed and said, "Yesterday, I almost became like that. ”

I patted her on the shoulder, and my heart sank.

"There must be a place to store food." I affirmed, "First of all, those who hide first need to eat and drink, and eighty percent have a surplus; Secondly, I think where will Tianji Pavilion hide some food supplies, otherwise, for seven days, they will starve to death, how can they have the strength to fight for it? ”

Gao Hui nodded and said, "Yes." ”

I looked at them and said, "It's not a good idea to always hide, so let's go around when we're done eating." ”

As soon as I finished speaking, something suddenly burst out of the water, and I subconsciously took a machete to block it, but was stopped by Liya.

"It's Senior Brother's corpse worm." She said.

The corpse worm crawled to Liya's feet, dying, and there was a hole in the middle of her body, and black and red blood flowed out.

Liya carefully held the corpse insect in her hand, and suddenly her face changed dramatically after a while, and she said, "Senior brother has an accident." ”

I put out the fire and threw stones into the river, "Let it lead the way." ”

The corpse worms actually rushed towards the river.

Li Jingzhi is in the water?

Seeing that we were not moving, the corpse worm scurried into the water again, and after a while crawled to the opposite shore.

"There's something wrong with the river." Gao Hui said.

I rolled up my sleeves and took Liya's hand and walked into the river, "If there is a problem, you have to get over, you can't see the upstream and downstream, you can only pass through the river." ”

As soon as I touched the water, I was shivering with cold, and the river was cold.

The heart was raised to the throat, for fear that something would suddenly come out of the water, and finally it was about to come to the end, Liya suddenly laughed twice, shook off my hand, and plunged into the water.
