『Chapter error, click here to report』

A red light flashed in Zhong Yao's eyes, and he jumped high at Li You, and a gray-black sword roared towards Li You.

Li You instinctively wanted to dodge, but the rope around his waist pulled his feet off the ground, and Zhong Yao's sword brushed past Li You's face.

Boom! Boom!

The two red monsters came to naught.

Zhong Yao withdrew his sword and fell to Li You's side. "Are you alright, sir?"

"No, it's fine." Li You was shocked.

"The situation was urgent just now, and I was a little offended."

"Nope." Li You immediately shook his head. "If it weren't for Brother Zhong Yao's timely move, I'm afraid I would have been in a different place. Thanks a lot! ”

"Your Excellency, you're welcome." Zhong Yao waved his hand. "My lord, should we be honest now?"

Li You looked at Zhong Yao and saw that he looked calm, there was nothing obvious abnormal, and although he was a little more down-to-earth, he was still a little apprehensive.

If Zhong Yao was a pawn buried by the other party, then with the cooperation of the two monsters, he could easily take his own life. However, Zhong Yao proved himself with his actions.

Although Li You still has some doubts, at least he can choose to trust him at this time.

"Brother Zhong Yao, we still underestimated that boy." Li You sighed.

"He also set up a formation in this house. Moreover, judging from the situation of Yuan Gang and Ouyang Jian, the scope of this formation may cover the entire courtyard. ”

"How's that to be?"

"Now the two of them are in the middle of the battle, and if they don't break the eye, they will be trapped forever." Li You turned to Zhong Yao. "So..."

"So?"

"The two of us have to find the eye of the formation, break the formation, and save the two of them out."

"The two of us?" A hint of panic flashed on Zhong Yao's face.

"Brother Zhong Yao, with your skills just now, these monsters are not your opponents at all." Li You saw Zhong Yao's hesitation and hurriedly cheered him up. "I need to concentrate on finding the formation eye, this matter of protection, I can only ask you."

"Me?" After a long period of family life, Zhong Yao not only lagged behind in his cultivation, but also weakened his idea of fighting, and at this time he was seriously injured, which was indeed a great challenge for him.

"It's a bit of a struggle, but there's no choice. Don't you also want to find out your wife and daughter as soon as possible?" In desperation, Li You had no choice but to use despicable means.

"Hmm." When Zhong Yao heard this, he finally nodded in agreement.

"Then let's get started." Li You was worried about the safety of Yuan Gang and Ouyang Jian, and although he was a little worried about Zhong Yao, he had no choice. So, Li You concentrated his mind on measuring the ruler.

"Broken!"

The measuring ruler emitted a dazzling golden light, pointing straight at the building in front of it.

Could it be that the eyes are in the room?

Li You controlled the speed of the measuring ruler, and under its guidance, walked forward. Zhong Yao held the sword in his hand and followed closely behind Li You.

The place where Li You is located is a platform, and there are three passages connected to the platform: left, middle and right. There are two corridors on the left and right that lead to the two sides, and the middle one leads directly to the house in the middle of the courtyard.

Li You walked slowly along the passage in the middle, always paying attention to the changes in the measuring scale. After walking about five meters, the measuring scale changed direction and pointed to the left. Li You took two steps to the left, and the measuring ruler was still pointing to the left, and Li You couldn't help frowning. Because Li You had already come to the railings on both sides of the passage, there was a pond in front of the railing.

Do you want to go into the water?

Li You thought of the red monster just now, and couldn't help but look back at Zhong Yao. Zhong Yao's face was solemn at this time, his steps were obviously a little stiff, and he was obviously in an extremely nervous state.

In Zhong Yao's state, after the two enter the water, if the monster attacks from underwater, the two will fall into an extremely passive situation.

However, according to the instructions of the measuring ruler, Li You has no choice at present.

"Those two fools!" Faced with such a predicament, Li You thought of Ouyang Jian and Yuan Gang again, and couldn't help but feel dark.

Let's go! Staying where you are won't solve the problem!

"Brother Zhong Yao, you pull the rope first, we may have to go into the water!"

"Huh? Good! Zhong Yao tightened the rope.

Li You raised his legs and rode on the railing of the passage, and after turning his back, he grabbed the railing with both hands and stretched out a leg downward. After his feet reached the surface of the water, Li You was surprised to find that he didn't feel like he was touching the water

Don't?

Li You stretched out his other leg, then let go of his hand holding the railing, and actually stood on the water.

"Your Excellency, you?" Zhong Yao saw Li You's strange appearance and showed an incredible expression.

What a naughty boy!

Li You had to admire the cleverness of that boy.

There is only one path in the formation that leads to the eye of the formation, and if this path is not cleverly set, the trapped person may find it through repeated attempts.

But who would have thought of a road on the water?

"Water is just a trick, it's a way." Li You explained to Zhong Yao. "Let's go!" Li You once again focused his mind on measuring the ruler and walked to the depths of the pond according to the instructions of the measuring ruler. Zhong Yao jumped over the railing and followed closely behind Li You.

Wow! Wow!

The two monsters rushed out of the water and pounced on Li You, who hurriedly retracted the measuring scale.

"Guard!" The measuring ruler is spread out into an umbrella shape.

Bang! Bang!

The monster crashed into the measuring scale, and Li You was knocked backwards and hit Zhong Yao. Zhong Yao arched his son, held Li You's shoulders with both hands, and the sword in his hand roared towards the two monsters.

Wow! Wow!

The two monsters failed to strike a blow and immediately jumped back into the water.

"Fight!"

Because there was water all around, Li You and the others were standing on a single-plank bridge, and they had ropes tied around their waists, which made it extremely inconvenient to move. Therefore, Li You chose to take the initiative to attack.

Wow!

The measuring ruler shone with golden light, whistling and rushing into the water.

Bang!

Wow!

One monster was smashed underwater, and the other rushed out of the water and pounced on Li You again, Li You hurriedly recalled the measuring scale, but it was too late to defend himself.

"My lord, beware!"

Zhong Yao pulled the rope around his waist violently, Li You was dragged back violently, narrowly avoiding the monster's attack, and Zhong Yao immediately urged the sword.

Bang!

The monster was smashed to pieces.

Wow! Wow!

Two more monsters rushed out of the water, but at this time, Zhong Yao was no longer flustered, only to see him wave his right hand and shout.

"Rock Blade, Break!"

The sword flying in the air immediately turned into countless spikes, roaring and rushing towards the two oncoming monsters.

Bang! Bang!

The two monsters shattered.

"Rock Blade, back!"

The rock blade turned back into a sword and flew back in front of Zhong Yao.

After a short period of adaptation, Zhong Yao finally regained his fighting instincts.

Cultivators must continue to train, accumulate experience from actual combat, and constantly improve their cultivation and the power of their swords. Although Zhong Yao's cultivation is not as good as Ouyang Jian's, the battles he has experienced are definitely not less than him.

Li You looked at Zhong Yao, who was a little out of breath but had recovered a little bit of vitality, and finally let go of the stone hanging in his heart.

If they remain in this state, it may be possible for the two of them to crack this magic circle. And for some reason, after being attacked by Zhong Yao, the monster no longer appeared.

"Brother Zhong Yao, let's continue."

"Hmm." Zhong Yao nodded, held the rock blade in his hand, and followed closely behind Li You.

Li You urged the measuring ruler, and the measuring ruler pointed to the middle passage again.

………

Li You and the others stepped on the passage, looked back, and found that they had only advanced about five meters in total, and there were still more than 50 meters ahead.

"Brother Zhong Yao, it seems that there is a long way to go."

"As long as it's in the right direction, nothing else is difficult." Zhong Yao's eyes finally regained some confidence.

"Good!"

Li You urged the measuring ruler to continue according to the guidance of the measuring ruler, and after walking for about five meters, the measuring ruler began to jump up and down.

What's going on?

Is there any trap ahead?

Li You turned around and motioned for Zhong Yao to tighten the rope, and he took a tentative step, but he didn't find anything abnormal, so he took another step, but he still didn't find anything abnormal.

The measuring ruler was still jumping up and down, as if he wanted to tell Li You something, but no matter how hard Li You tried, he couldn't read what it was trying to say. After all, the measuring ruler is not a living thing, and although Li You can control it, he can't actually communicate with him.

Take a step, look at a step.

Thinking of this, Li You turned his head to signal Zhong Yao to relax, and took another step himself.

However, when he took this step, he felt like stepping into the air, and his whole body fell down, and Zhong Yao behind him immediately tightened the rope.

Oh! Oh!

Two monsters jumped out of the ground and opened their mouths to bite Li You's neck. Li You looked at the oncoming bloody mouth, and instinctively tilted his head back, but the downward inertia took him towards the monster.

"Ahh Li You let out a scream, feeling the rope around his waist tighten violently, and when his face was about to touch the monster's teeth, his body finally began to move upward, and he was finally pulled back.

The two monsters leapt into the air and fell back into the ground. Ahead is still the same passage, and there is no difference to be seen.

"Scared the hell out of me!" Li You gasped for breath and nodded gratefully to Zhong Yao.

"My lord, what's going on?"

After what happened just now, Li You finally understood the meaning of measuring the ruler. "There should be a cliff ahead, and you need to jump over it. But there are monsters lurking in the cliff, and I don't know how wide the cliff is. ”

"Oh?" Zhong Yao walked up to Li You and frowned. "Let me try."

"Rock Blade, Break!"

The blade flew into the air, turning into countless spikes, and smashed into the ground in front of it like rain, but after falling to the ground, it disappeared strangely.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound was incessant, and the spikes were three meters away, finally smashing on top of the entity.

Li You gave Zhong Yao a thumbs up, Zhong Yao grinned, and was a little shy.

"At a distance of five meters, you should be able to rush through."

"Hmm."

Li You grabbed the measuring ruler, Zhong Yao held the rock blade, the two of them urged their strength at the same time, and the two weapons rushed forward with the two of them, barely crossing the three-meter cliff.

Then the measuring scale responds in the same way. Li You and the others repeated their old tricks, and after jumping several times in a row, they were finally less than ten meters away from the room.

"This damn little kid is clearly playing tricks!"

After a few jumps, Li You only felt that his mind was rising, and the light of the measuring ruler had weakened a lot, obviously because of the excessive number of jumps, his strength had been greatly weakened.

Compared with Li You, Zhong Yao looked much better, and compared with before, his spirit seemed to be more full, and there was a little excitement on his face.

Is it because I have regained my self-confidence and my ability has also improved?

Li You always felt a little unbelievable when he found Zhong Yao's abnormality, but he didn't have the heart to think about it at this time, after all, this situation was definitely not a bad thing.

"Brother Zhong Yao, according to the instructions of the measuring ruler, the array eye should be in the room, but what traps will there be in the last few meters, we can only take one step at a time."

"Good!" Zhong Yao's tone was firm.

"Let's go!" Li You stepped forward, and Zhong Yao followed.

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

As soon as the two of them took a step, seven or eight monsters appeared in front of them and behind them, whistling and pounced on them.

"Fight!"

"Rock Blade, Slash!"

Faced with monsters in all directions, Li You and the others had no choice, and while urging their weapons with all their might, they approached the room step by step.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The explosions continued, but the monsters seemed endless, shattering one and reappearing. The two of them didn't have a chance to breathe at all, the light of the measuring ruler became more and more dim, and Li You's control of it became more and more sluggish.

"My lord, take back the measuring scale, let me come!" Zhong Yao discovered the abnormality of the measuring ruler and immediately issued instructions to Li You. "Without the measuring scale, we can't break the formation!"

Although reluctant, Li You had to agree with Zhong Yao's point of view and withdrew the measuring ruler from his right arm. "Brother Zhong Yao, please!"

"Shield!"

Zhong Yao retracted his blade, clenched the hilt of his sword with both hands, and swung it at the ground with all his might.

Bang!

A stone wall rises from the ground.

"Hold on to the rope, sir!" After Zhong Yao reminded Li You, he swung the rock blade at the stone wall again.

"Shield!"

A stone wall appeared on the previous stone wall, pushing the two of them violently. The two of them flew out of a distance of four or five meters like billiard balls, landed on the ground, and continued to roll forward a meter or two away, finally reaching the door of the house.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

All the monsters disappeared at once.

What a magical formation!

"Brother Zhong Yao, thanks to you." Li You took a moment of respite and thanked Zhong Yao from the bottom of his heart again.

"Your Excellency, you..."

"Call me Brother Li You, it's too much to call an adult."

"Okay, Brother Li You!" Zhong Yao nodded vigorously, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The consumption of the measuring scale is too large, let's rest for a while."

"Okay."

The two rested at the door for more than ten minutes, then adjusted their minds and walked into the room.

"I let you break in."

The room was empty and unfurnished. Above the room, floated a man dressed in black with red eyes. Underneath it, stood two monsters with thick right hands and blood-red skin.

These two monsters should be the two warrior monks that Yuan Gang said about ghouls. And the people in the air should be the ghost clan who attacked Zhong Yao.

The culprit of the ghoul case, is it this ghost clan floating in the air?

If so, what is its purpose in attacking so many people? And why do you want to occupy this annex? What conspiracy is behind this?

Li You looked at the enemy in front of him vigilantly, and countless questions flooded in his heart. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
