Chapter XXVIII
About half a day's journey away from the imperial capital, Qiu Chen entered a primeval forest
Walking on the small stone paved road, Qiuchen thought back to the terrain that Ma Yin had described to herself. After walking out of the imperial capital, keep going south, follow a path along the creek, turn right when you encounter the first fork in the road, and don't stop until you reach the end of the road. When you reach a broken valley, you can see the night raid headquarters not far away, located under the cliff on the opposite side
Originally, he wanted Ma Yin and Ciel to draw him a general topographical map, but after looking at the so-called map they had drawn, Qiu Chen felt that if he threw this thing into an underground cave, the people who found it later might think it was a treasure map. It's better to let Ma Yin describe the route, at least she won't be as simple as Hill described, 'Go out... Moving forward... Keep moving forward... That's it
Why don't you tell me about the east, west, north and south!
Rubbing his forehead, Qiuchen continued on the path described by Mayin. I hope these killers are easier to talk to, although Hill and Ma Yin have a good impression of Qiuchen, but as a group of killers who wander on the tip of the knife, they think of the killers they have seen. Neither the Scarlet Crusader Killers, nor the Assassins of the League of Assassins, nor the Scourge Assassins, can always feel close and easy-going
And this time he had to tell Tazmi that his two little hairs didn't die. But once he told him about it, it was equivalent to telling the night raiders that he had a way to resurrect people, which was the last thing Qiuchen wanted the aborigines to know. Mayne and Ciel can prevaricate with their medical skills, but according to Iyeas, he and Sayo were confirmed dead in front of the members of the Night Raid, and it is impossible to believe that the so-called medical skills can really bring the dead back to life with a little brain
What a hassle...... You can't keep it hidden......
Qiuchen sighed in annoyance. Suddenly, as if he smelled something in the air, he wrinkled the tip of his nose, Qiu Chen closed his eyes, and his spiritual power radiated outward in a circle centered on him, and began to explore the surrounding environment. In the case of the perception of the living, not many living people can escape his search
But as soon as he closed his eyes, a thread of silk was tied around his neck, and a loose male voice came from the tree above his head
"If you don't want to die, just do as I say, put your hands on top of your head, don't think about making any small movements, believe me, I can definitely break your neck before you do anything else" As he spoke, the silk thread on Qiuchen's neck tightened again. Only then did he see that there were already countless transparent silk threads around him, like a giant spider web, and these silk threads were so subtle that they couldn't be found if they weren't deliberately perceived
Qiuchen raised his eyebrows, his hands slowly raised, his eyes lifted upward, and he just saw a young man jumping off the top of the tree and falling in front of him, but he had seen this young man before
"Hey, aren't you the clerk at the Night bookstore?"
"Wait, you ......" The young man glanced at Qiuchen up and down, and clapped his hands as if he realized it, "You are the customer of that time?!" ”
"It's actually you, is there a problem with that bookstore......" Before Qiu Chen could finish speaking, the silk thread on his neck was immediately tightened, and the green-haired young man's eyes appeared with murderous intent, and his tone became cold
"You went to the bookstore that day not just to borrow books, but to find out the news!" The green-haired boy said viciously, "I'll just say it~ How can anyone go to the bookstore to borrow books these days." I'm sorry, but for the sake of secrecy, I'm going to let you stop here! ”
Qiuchen let out a long breath, although the silk thread around his neck was so tight that normal people couldn't speak, it wasn't that trouble for him, "In other words, when your trap catches the prey, don't you think about whether the praying mantis will be behind?"
"Ha~ What nonsense, it's useless to scare me" The green-haired boy said confidently, "My emperor. The barrier under the tail of the cross can return the position of all living creatures in the vicinity to me at the same time, not to mention that someone is standing behind me, even if a bird flies by, it is impossible to dodge."
Even though he said this, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. It stands to reason that with his current strength, not to mention a normal human being, even if it is a dangerous species, he should be strangled, but the young man in front of him not only was not strangled, but even the phenomenon of difficulty breathing did not appear. Thinking about it, the silk thread in his hand tightened a little tighter
Is it another troublesome emperor......
"Is it...... lowered his eyes and looked at the silk thread that had been stucked into the flesh, Qiuchen smacked his lips, "So what is the situation now?"
Suddenly, the green-haired boy felt a chill in his back, and a giant sword landed on his shoulder before he knew it. Squinting at the blade of the giant sword that shone with cold light, he swallowed in disbelief
"What...... When ......"
"Just when you are confident in your victory speech" Qiuchen put one hand on his neck, and found that not only could he not untie the silk thread, but he couldn't even pull it off, "Don't you untie it for me, figure it out, but you are in danger at this time"
"Hmph, do you think I will betray my companion for personal safety......" The green-haired young man seemed to have made up his mind, completely ignoring the giant sword on his shoulder, exerting force with both hands, and pulling suddenly, in an instant, Qiu Chen heard an overwhelmed sound from his spine, and then, his vision was deflected, and the sudden shaking made his stomach almost vomit out what he had eaten this morning
"Since it's a dead end, then let me take you to the end!" The green-haired boy roared, and when he saw that he had successfully strangled Qiuchen's neck, he closed his eyes. There wasn't enough time left, and he covered his neck with the threads of the crossed tail to block the next attack
Main and Ciel had just returned yesterday, and the base was celebrating their escapes, only to have a problem with themselves...... There's really no way.,Obviously still thinking about following the boss all the way to the end......
Closed his eyes and waited for a while, only to find that the sword on his neck had not been cut off, and the green-haired boy slowly opened his eyes in confusion, and found that there was no one behind him, and the giant sword on his shoulder had disappeared
There were no intruders, no one else, there was nothing around and nothing but the wind
"This ......" The green-haired young man looked around vigilantly, guarding against a possible attack, but at this time, the voice of Qiu Chen, who he thought was dead, startled him
"My God, you're really ruthless" In the eyes of the green-haired boy looking at the monster, Qiu Chen grabbed his neck with both hands, clicked, and came over, "Really, do you have to negotiate by force, can't you let us sit down and have a good talk?" I'm the one who saved Hill and Mayne, and it's really sad to treat me like this......" (I'm bursting my liver, thanks to Hearthstone Balance for the tip)
