Chapter 54: The Return

The room was filled with a smell of medicine, and the sweet and bitter liquid constantly stimulated the taste buds, and a feeling of dizziness came, and the limbs gradually transmitted back to the senses.

"Where is this?" Ah Hao tried to straighten up, but the sharp pain behind him and the wound on his chest told him to lie down obediently.

"It's better for you to lie down. An old man walked in at the door, holding a bowl of ointment in his hand, emitting a snipping fragrance of herbs and trees.

"Are you...?"

"You fell down from the mountain and jumped into the river, but fortunately I saw it and used my spiritual power to cushion you, otherwise falling into the water so high is probably no different from falling on the ground. ”

"Uh...... Thank you for saving your life. ”

"Don't thank you, there are still wounds, turn around, wipe your back first. ”

The old man came over with the ointment in his hand, and without saying much, he took off the old medicine and applied the new medicine over and over again.

"Use your spiritual power yourself and speed up your recovery. It wasn't until he finished applying the ointment that Ah Hao mobilized his spiritual power, and he didn't know how long he had been in a coma, and his spiritual power had already recovered.

"Grandpa~ Do you still want ointment?" At this time, a young girl ran in from outside the house, holding a bundle of herbs in her hand and asked.

"Not for now, don't get it yet. ”

"My granddaughter, Ji Yun, she made all the ointment on your body. ”

"There are two Laos, I, Su Hao, must remember this kindness!"

"Hehe, then there is no need, there is no one in the mountains for a few days, although there is a sudden injury, but it is also good to kill the time. ”

Hearing that taking care of himself was 'to kill time', Su Hao didn't know what to say for a while.

"By the way, old man, there are spirits nearby, and you can't stay here for long. Let's get out of the way to the rear. ”

"Oh, you mean those bedbugs?" he said, gesturing to a corner of the ground. Su Hao looked over and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

I saw two tigers lying on the ground, pitch-black with white patterns, one male and one female, who were 'absorbing' those collapsed spirits and ...... Spiritist. It's not bloody, the two tigers are just a mouth, and a ball of essence wraps the target and sends it directly into the mouth.

How could Su Hao not know the two tigers in front of him with such obvious characteristics, this population among the spirit beasts is definitely one of the beast kings! And a fact made Su Hao break out in a cold sweat, who was this old man in front of him?

"Old man, I don't know who you are?"

"A bad old man. Obviously, the old man didn't want to say more about his identity, and Su Hao also dispelled his thoughts, after all, he was kind to himself, and he couldn't help but know what was good and bad.

Just thinking about it, Ji Yun walked in: "Grandpa, the herbs are all collected." Hee-hee, big brother, are you awake too?"

"Oh, Miss Lao is bothered, I don't know how many days I've been bothering?"

"You, you've been in a coma for a day, your spiritual power is almost exhausted, and when I rescued you, you were already half dead. It's good that grandpa knows how to heal, otherwise you would have ......... long ago."

"Ji Yun, it's no big or small, he's just recovered now, and he has no food in his stomach, so hurry up and prepare lunch." ”

"Oh, grandpa will ask me to work, it's so annoying. ”

"How can you be annoying? People just happen to be arguing here, and you will be noisy until you crack after a while. ”

"Cut~" Ji Yun's face was full of dissatisfaction, and he waved his hand and called the 'big black and little black' who had already eaten to hurry up for lunch.

"It's no surprise that the child has little contact with people since she was a child, but she doesn't feel like she has a sense of being born, but she likes to talk to people, and sometimes I feel annoyed by those who are accosted by her. ”

"Haha, the little girl is really temperamental, it doesn't matter, I don't bother. Su Hao was also polite, but in fact, his mind was already looking at the old man in front of him.

Although the old man lives in an ordinary thatched hut, many things in it are not quite consistent with this thatched hut, and if the two Sky Swallowing Tigers are raised by the old man by chance, it will be okay, but, when Ji Yun walked out just now, the firewood knife that he picked up with his hand, although there are rust marks on it, but the traces of the flash are obviously spars, not ordinary things, and more and more doubts make Su Hao wonder. Even with a sense of vigilance.

"I don't know what provoked you to trigger the killing intent?" The old man began to taste tea with a teacup, and said indifferently, this sentence was extremely abrupt, Su Hao's heart was panicked, and his little vigilance was detected?

"Oh, don't mind, I'm a rough man, I'm used to killing all day, so move a little. As he spoke, he also attracted spiritual power to make the appearance of pranayama.

"Well, you do smell of blood. The old man said again.

"We are all people who have fought on the battlefield, and I hope the old man will forgive us. I only fell off when I broke through before. ”

"I'm not talking about the smell of blood in the past two days, it's... The killing intent that has been carved into your bones, even if you are just sitting, is very strong. ”

These three sentences, every sentence has a blade, especially the last sentence, almost to Su Hao jump, he feels like a lying child, but they have already been recognized by the old man.

Do you know why?

Before Su Hao entered the army, he was originally a member of the 'Hunting Army', which was also a spiritual master, but its goal was not to kill the spirit, but to be a spiritual master. There are many spiritual masters who have bullied others, or who have done things that hurt nature and reason with spiritual methods, so this position is needed to 'clean up'. Because of this, the hunters are generally not treated well by spirit masters.

Now the hint of the old man's words seems to point out Su Hao's former identity, which can't help but make him frightened.

"Old man, what the hell are you?"

"I'm just a bad old man. ”

"............" for a while, the room was as silent as death.

"Grandpa, it's time to eat. "After a while, Ji Yun has already brought the food, the meal is very usual, some wild vegetables and chicken, nothing else. However, it can be seen that Ji Yun should cook rice often, and it is full of color, flavor, and flavor.

At the dinner table, Su Hao didn't have too many words, but Ji Yun kept asking this and that, looking very enthusiastic. Of course, Su Hao didn't make his own affairs very clear.

When the meal was finished, the old man suddenly said: "You replied quickly, I won't stop you much, if you have something important, I have prepared dry food for you, you can take a look tomorrow, you can set off at any time." ”

In the face of the old man's eviction order, Su Hao couldn't ask for it, this person gave him a very mysterious feeling, saying that he didn't care, it was fake, not to mention that the other party had saved himself.

"It's really annoying, I have your help this time, otherwise I'm afraid that it will be more than lucky, please take Ji Yun and leave quickly, I don't think it will be peaceful here recently." ”

"Hmm..." the old man still held the tea, did not say much, quietly walked out of the house, and returned to his room. Ji Yun packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went back to the room early to rest.

"Who the hell is he?" The empty room gave Su Hao space to think, and he kept thinking about this question in his mind, and soon, he thought of the spirit masters who chased and killed him before, he was in a group with them? Judging from what the Sky Swallowing Tiger did, it wasn't, what happened to those spirit masters?

"No......" Su Hao, who is familiar with the style of the hunting army, overturned his guess. If it is a hunter, at the beginning, it will definitely go to the unit to which it belongs to capture itself...... It is obvious that he was hunted down because he took the so-called Luowen Bell.

Took out the Luo Wen bell from his arms, there is nothing special about it left and right, if there must be anything special, that is, how to shake it without ringing, what are those spirit masters asking for this for?

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Su Hao got up early, thinking not to disturb the two, and was about to go out on tiptoe, but he didn't expect that the old man was already sitting at the door.

"Leaving early, don't sleep much?"

"Uh...... I really don't dare to stay long, I have to go back to my life. ”

The old man nodded, didn't say anything, turned around, and held a string of dried fish in his hand.

"I'm afraid that you will panic just with dry food, so bring these with you. ”

took it with both hands, and Su Hao was also grateful. A few words of thanks, and it's time to go.

"Hey, boy, if you go east from here, if you use spiritual power, you should be back on the road in less than a day. ”

"Thank you, old man, take care and get out of here as soon as possible. The old man waved his hand and said no more.

"Remember to choose a hidden place to walk on ......the ground," the old man's voice came from behind Su Hao.

There was a secret order ahead, Su Hao no longer procrastinated, and rushed in a few steps.

"This silly boy...... I don't want to think about it, the spirit master and the spirit are so obvious together, why the hunting army doesn't move, the current juniors......... "The old man turned around and walked towards the house step by step.

But it was said that the soldiers of the Nanwu Army had waited for a full day, and there was no news from Su Hao, although no one in the barracks said it explicitly, but there was a strange atmosphere in the air, and everyone knew it in their hearts, but they didn't mention the previous thing.

"Xiao Mo, what's the situation? ”

"All the sentry posts have begun to be on high alert. Some of the brothers who had gone to inquire about the news had returned, but they had not found it, and some of them had not yet returned and were probably on their way back. ”

"Pass on my military order, if there is an attack by the spirit, all the sentry posts will retreat as soon as possible, and return to their own battalions, and our forces cannot be dispersed. ”

"Yes!"

"General, don't we really need to ask for support from the rear?"

“......... I have my own arrangement for this, you don't have to worry, take care of the things in front of you. Wang Ping seemed to have something to say, but hesitated.

Seeing his complexion, Sister Mo didn't say much, withdrew from the camp, and went to convey the military order.

Wang Ping returned to his seat and looked at the map in front of him, "It seems that the master's words have been fulfilled......
