Chapter 257: A Powerful Enemy in Black (Fourth Watch)
Just a few moments after the three of them disappeared in place, more than a dozen black-clothed people quickly fell from the sky of "Ho Ho Ho Ho ......", all of them shrouded in black cloaks, unable to see their true faces.
Just now, Ziyi was pulled by Twilight to Yan Lan, Yan Lan was originally lying on her side, and Twilight Yang pulled the two together in a hurry.
At this moment, Ziyi's body was leaning against Yan Lan's arms. She felt Yan Lan's slightly anxious breath, and suddenly had an indescribable sense of steadiness, her face suddenly flushed, and her immature heart fluttered and fluttered. Because he knew that there was danger around him, he didn't dare to move, so he could only obediently lean on Yan Lan's arms.
Yan Lan reacted from the crisis, only to realize that a soft body was close to him, and his hand unconsciously pulled the person in front of him.
Feeling the curve of Ziyi that began to develop slightly, as well as the softness coming from her hand, Yan Lan was suddenly a little embarrassed. But there was a lot of danger around him, and he was not easy to move, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
At this moment, Yan Lan saw that the men in black had fallen, and he didn't seem to notice the three of them, but just in case, his eyes kept staring at those men in black for a moment. The shift of attention made his embarrassment gradually disappear.
Seeing that there was no one around, the man in black turned his attention to the huge pit on the side.
Several black-clothed people gathered around the huge round pit, and a few others flew above the round pit, all of them releasing huge spiritual senses to probe and go.
Originally, when Ziyi and Duyang were saving Yanlan, they were suspended in the air, leaving no footprints, so there were no obvious traces of people around the round pit.
After careful probing for a long time, all the men in black fell to the ground and gathered together.
"Captain, there are no signs of life in or around this pit. A man in black reported to the head of the man in black with a cloak and a gold-trimmed neckline.
"Well, got it. A faint voice came from the black and dull cloak, cold and ruthless, as if it came from the Nine Secluded Lands, which made people feel creepy.
The men in black didn't react at all when they heard this, obviously familiar with his cold voice.
"Captain, the subordinates have found that this pit should be caused by a person who fell from the sky at a rapid speed and smashed it, and at the same time used a huge amount of energy to explode, and the person who fell to the ground has left, and there is no sign of life around. Another man in black bowed down and reported.
"Hmm!" The black-clothed captain of Phnom Penh nodded slightly, then faced the round pit, thought for a while, and was unaware, after the dark eyes flashed a hint of strangeness, he shouted "go", and more than ten black-clothed people rose from the ground and passed away towards the east.
After a long time, Twilight realized that the man in black had long been far away, so he stood up, and Yan Lan and Ziyi also hurriedly separated.
Yan Lan looked at the direction of the man in black leaving, his brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't understand what these people wanted.
Ziyi's face was flushed, she turned around, quickly slapped the dust on her body, and bowed her head silently.
How could Twilight not understand Ziyi's daughter's posture, and it was not easy to say, just a smile.
Yan Lan tidied up his clothes and demeanor slightly, and asked suspiciously: "Senior Dusk, who are those people, why do we want to avoid them?"
Twilight Yang was not in a hurry to answer Yan Lan's words, but looked at him with a smile and said, "Yan Lan, if you have nowhere to go, just follow us and you can call me Uncle Twilight in the future!"
Yan Lan was stunned for a moment, then her heart warmed, and she hurriedly smiled and said: "I really have nowhere to go, so I will have to take care of Uncle Duyang in the future." ”
Yan Lan really doesn't know where to go now, and there is no one she knows at the moment. Seeing that the old man and the young in front of him are kind-hearted, and they are his own life-saving benefactors, he has no reason not to follow.
Twilight smiled and nodded, "Okay, but if there is a crisis today, it may not be safe for you to follow us." But being alone may be even more dangerous. Those men in black are demonic people, these people are very mysterious, and they seem to be on some secret mission......"
Speaking of this, Twilight Yang paused slightly, and her face became a little solemn. Then he changed the conversation and said, "It's not good to stay here for a long time, Yan Lan, your injuries are almost recovered." Just now, I probed your body and found that you have almost no spiritual power in your body, and there is no Yuan Dan in your dantian, but I feel that your temperament should be a cultivator, could it be that you have suffered any misfortune?"
Twilight has a solemn face, in troubled times, it is better to have a strong man by his side. If Yan Lan's spiritual root is destroyed, it is a trivial matter that he needs to take care of himself, but if Yan Lan is a wasted person, it is really a heavy blow to a young man who is only fourteen years old, which is a result he does not want to think of.
Yan Lan's expression darkened, and he said rather dejectedly: "Don't hide it from Uncle Dusk Yang, my spiritual root was destroyed by a mysterious powerhouse, and now I don't have any spiritual power, no different from ordinary mortals, I may have to drag you down." ”
Twilight Yang immediately revealed a trace of regret between his eyebrows, and said slowly: "Now we are fellow travelers, why do you say such a foreign thing." Yan Lan, don't be too depressed, the spiritual root has been destroyed, I remember that I have seen the method of healing in an ancient classic, not to mention that the world is so big, there are countless capable people, and when I go to Tiangangmen, I will find a cure for you. ”
When Yan Lan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly: "Thank you Uncle Duyang, great kindness, I will be rewarded." ”
How could he not be excited, in his previous cognition, the destruction of the spiritual root completely meant that the path of cultivation had been cut off, and now a glimmer of life suddenly appeared in despair, making him feel that the magic methods and capable people of this vast world were really far beyond the comparison of the small heaven and land.
Twilight waved her hand and smiled, "No thanks, okay, it's not safe here, anyway, we're walking, let's walk together." ”
Hearing that they were going to go together, Ziyi, who had her back to Yan Lan, immediately turned around with a smile, grabbed Yan Lan's left arm, and said, "Let's go, with Brother Lan'er on the road, I'm not so bored!"
Looking at Ziyi, who was in a good mood, Twilight cleaned up a little, smiled and walked towards the east together.
"Brother Lan'er, my father always tells me stories, so you can tell me stories too. ”
"I ...... I'm so old, I haven't been anywhere yet, and I don't have anyone to tell me stories, so I don't have anything to talk about. Yan Lan said slightly embarrassed.
Yan Lan's hand was pulled by Ziyi without any scruples, he had never been so close to other women, and suddenly his face was red and white, and even his speech became clumsy.
"Oh, well, that's okay, my dad can tell stories. Daddy, keep telling us the story!" Ziyi jumped between Yanlan and Twilight like a cheerful bird.
Twilight looked at the cheerful Ziyi lovingly, looked at the east with deep eyes, cleared her voice, and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you about my Dao Gate, Tiangang Gate......
The sunset in the west stretched the figures of three people. Compared to the vast world, the three of them seem so small and lonely.
Just after Yan Lan left the circle pit hundreds of zhang away, a strange whirlwind hovered over the round pit, leaving a pair of dark eyes, but it did not make any sound.
"This son fell from the sky, and happened to be rescued by the person I wanted to chase and kill, hehe, anyway, you are already in my pocket, then I will let you live a little longer, I want to see, this kid who fell from the sky, what is abnormal. ”
The dark eye narrowed slightly, and then dissipated.
