Volume 2: Wind and Rain in the Eight Directions Chapter 197: On the Brink
After the abyss of the soul is over, Jun Yi and the others have all returned, or they are resting, refining the Goutian Fruit, or polishing their state of mind, and cultivating steadily, everything is in order and developing in a good direction.
Even Dong Wenxue, even Duan Youhan and Shi Xuan had returned safely, and told the family elders what they had seen and heard in the abyss of the soul, picked out some things that could be said, and asked not to spread them, as for those who couldn't be said, they didn't say a word, so as not to cause trouble.
But there are also people who are different from them.
In the dark night, in the silent forest, a figure came suddenly, but it was a warrior who walked carefully in the dark night, although it was careful, but it stepped on the flowers and plants between its movements, and it would make quite a loud sound, like thunder in the dark night.
The warrior's steps were heavy, staggering slightly, and where he passed, there were drops of crimson blood dripping, and it was not until he got close that he found that there was a person behind him.
It was Ink Bai who fled all the way, and the one behind him was Gong Lan.
Nearly half a month has passed, Shui Mobai has sneaked all the way with Gong Lan on his back, around many cities, and Gong Lan, who was already a little weak, was also slightly injured in the pursuit on the way, so he had to change his clothes every time he went, and buy spiritual herbs and elixirs to take for her, so that she could stabilize her injuries, at least not worsen.
Along the way, Shui Mobai has sold all the valuable things on his body, and he has traveled several places before he can reach the vicinity of Hui'an City.
It's just that now is the most dangerous time.
Hui'an City, which seems to be calm and calm, is like a creeping beast in the wilderness at night, making people dare not approach.
Yun Yi united with the Sin Sword Sect, Fuyu Villa and others to stop and kill them halfway, and naturally thought that there would be the possibility of escaping, intercepting and killing halfway is one thing, and there must be warriors lurking secretly in Hui'an City and the Shui family.
None of them are stupid, as long as they have brains, they can think that if Shui Mobai and Gong Lan are allowed to go back alive, the Beicang Continent will definitely set off a bloody storm.
Attacking and killing the two young masters, this is something that no one can afford.
Ink and white clothes were covered messily on his body, his hair was dirty, and there was even a little dried mud hanging on it, which was quite embarrassing.
"Whew, whew..."
Shui Mobai held on to the big tree beside him, panting gently, not daring to make too much noise, a pair of eyes were extremely bright in the dark night, looking around vigilantly, like a hunting beast.
Without too many pauses, Shui Mobai tightened the Gong Lan on his back, gritted his teeth and chose a direction, and continued to move forward, the assassination on the way, the highly vigilant sneaking, made his whole person tired, and there was not much aura left in his body, but there was Gong Lan behind him, and Yun Yi was not killed by his own hands, which was the reason why he couldn't give up.
As he was walking, Shui Mobai's eyes suddenly trembled, his body shrank slightly, and he retreated, caged in the darkness, and hid his figure.
"Woooo
There was a sound of breaking the air, and several figures galloped by, and there was a white glow of Dawson's white hair on his body, which made people's hearts tremble in the dark night.
Shui Mobai watched them leave, but remained motionless, and after a quarter of an hour, he set off again, cautiously sneaking forward, but the pace was even slower.
Along the way, Shui Mobai was vigilant, carefully observing the surroundings, and the closer he got to Hui'an City, the more his heart was raised, and he didn't dare to be careless.
It took two hours for the ink white to see the edge of the forest, but now, he could not go any further.
In the darkness, at the edge of the faintly visible forest, there were vague shadows on a forest branch pressed by black, hiding there, there were many people, and there was no breath coming out.
Obviously, they are all warriors sent by Yun Yi and others to ambush, and it is already the limit to get here, and if you get closer, you will reach the range of the palace family.
Such a number of warriors moved together, and such a strange behavior, it would definitely attract the attention of the Gong family, but it would be a startling snake.
They couldn't take this risk, so they had to place all the people in the forest, especially the entire perimeter of the forest as a line of defense.
If it weren't for the large number of them, Ink White might not have been able to find it, so many warriors were huddled together, and it was clear that they were coming at them.
This is the case here, and the other three sides of the city are also average, although the method is stupid, but at least Ink and White is really helpless.
I have already arrived here, if I return to Shuijia City, the risk will be too great, there are too many variables on the road, and even if I arrive, it must be the same as here.
For a while, Shui Mobai was a little worried, this was the first time in his life that he longed for strength.
When the palace family disrupted the marriage ceremony, although he felt that his strength was important, he still had a plan to make up for it, and he didn't have much feeling, such as pulling in Junyi's help is a good example.
But now, he feels like a waste, he can't even protect the woman he loves, but he has to be protected by her, and as a result, he is involved like this.
Shui Mobai was flustered, but soon, he forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, and thought carefully about the way, the more he couldn't be in a hurry at this time.
"Damn, if only I could drill into the ground..."
Shui Mobai scolded secretly in his heart, but as soon as this thought came out, his eyes suddenly lit up: Drill into the ground!
yes, why didn't you think of that?
As soon as he thought of this, Shui Mobai quietly turned around, changed directions, and fled into the distance, excited in his heart, but he did not relax his vigilance in the slightest.
Of course, ink white will not drill into the ground.
Even if he could, he wouldn't be able to get past those people's defenses, but he could find a safe place to put Gong Lan in place and ask for help.
When he was a child, he was free and easy by nature, and his thoughts were wild.
Yi Chenhai and Yun Yi didn't bother to pay attention to him, only Gong Lan would accompany him and occasionally take him out to practice, of course, he was not very peaceful on the way, and would find some fun places to be lazy.
One of them is not far from Hui'an City, and the people of the Gong family have also found it, if they can find a way to spread the news, Gong Lan will be saved.
All the way out, there is a mountain peak not far from Hui'an City, the peak is not high, even bare like a mound, few people come, it is precisely because of this that Ink White chose here.
In less than half an hour, Ink White arrived here, and went straight up to the mound, where there was a hidden cave, the entrance of which extended downwards and continued deeper, but in half an hour the sound of a stream of water could be heard.
Under the cave, there is a natural karst cave, an underground river flows slowly, and the rippling light that reflects out of nowhere reflects the somewhat hazy beauty here.
Shui Mobai carefully put Gong Lan away, reached out and gently touched her face, this time he didn't know if he could get a glimmer of life, maybe this was the last time to see Gong Lan, but after a few breaths, Shui Mobai gritted his teeth and turned away.
"Hey, do you think this pair of dog men and women, Shui Mo Bai and Gong Lan, will come here?"
"How do I know? Be quiet, be vigilant, don't miss a big thing. ”
"I don't believe that they can pass me by such a coincidence!"
The two warriors talked softly, leaning on the trunk of the tree somewhat casually, not taking it too seriously.
Of course, it's no wonder that they are, after all, everyone has a fluke mentality, and they have dispatched so many warriors, and even surrounded such a large forest outside Hui'an City.
There are a lot of places to hide in other directions, what do they have here? Even if there are few trees, there is a big bare mound not far away, who would be stupid to come from here? Isn't this a live target?
The two talked to each other, and they also felt that the other party was reasonable, and gradually relaxed, and there was no word of ridicule.
"Whew!"
Just as the two were talking, suddenly a sound of breaking wind came, and a figure swept directly away from them not far away, and disappeared into the darkness.
This sudden scene made the two of them stunned, and some did not react, but then the joyful expression froze, and their faces changed greatly.
"Someone sudden
Wai!"
The warrior shouted, because he was too hard, his voice was sharp, and before the words fell, the two of them rushed out, the spiritual power in their bodies gushed, and they hurriedly chased forward, if they really told him to run, the two of them would not have to live.
Shui Mobai gritted his teeth, the blood and qi in his body burned, and he directly overdrew his life, this step was to do his best, Gong Lan's life and death depended on the success or failure of his actions, and he couldn't leave any hands.
Half an hour, only half a quarter of an hour of kung fu ink white approached Hui'an City, burning blood ink white, like a ball of fire in the dark night, particularly eye-catching.
"Open the gates!"
Shui Mobai roared, his eyes were bloodshot, and a flash of light burst out of his eyes.
"Who?"
Above the city gate, several warriors saw Shui Mobai from a distance, and they became vigilant for a while, shouting in their mouths to tell him not to break in.
Although the warriors ignore the night and day, the habit at the beginning of cultivation still allows them to practice more than at night, and similarly, Hui'an City, like other cities, will also close the city gates at night and be guarded by the strong men of the city's forces.
"Open the gates!"
Ink white roared in his mouth, where did he have the time to pay attention to the problem of guards.
"Look for death!"
The warriors in the city had not yet listened to Qing Shui Mobai's words, but the warriors chasing behind him had gradually approached, and with a loud shout, he covered Shui Mobai's voice.
"Hurry up and find the commander, there is an enemy attack!"
Seeing that the guards were approaching the two of them again, and the aura around them was not restrained, and even faintly enhanced, their faces suddenly changed, and they hurriedly asked their warriors to move the rescuers, and at the same time summoned the other guards over, but I didn't expect that there were still people who were so bold and dared to break into the palace and family emblem Ancheng!
The two warriors were both in the late stage of Wujun, the swords and sticks in their hands were staggered, the spiritual power in their bodies was gushing, there was no nonsense at all, and they went directly to Shui Mobai to slash and kill, vowing to bombard him here.
"Quick, quicker, open the gates!"
Shui Mobai roared wildly in his heart, seeing that he was less than a mile away from the city gate, but the city gate had not yet opened, he was anxious, he didn't want to die, because if he died, Gong Lan would really be saved.
"Die!"
The two warriors roared, and the sword and stick thundered down, and fell fiercely on the back of the ink white.
The exhaustion of the struggle all the way, coupled with the burning of blood and qi at this time, already made him very weak, and now that the two martial artists in the late stage of the Martial Monarch struck with all their strength, how could he resist?
"Poof!"
Ink-white's eyes suddenly, blood spurted out of his mouth, and the whole person was directly blown up, slammed on the city gate, made a "boom", and then rolled to the ground.
Blood was overflowing from the corners of Shui Mobai's mouth, the corners of his eyes were bruised, and he struggled to crawl forward, his bloody hand pressed on the city gate, trying to forcibly push it away, but there was no movement.
"Good thing it caught up, phew!"
The two warriors galloped over, scolding in their mouths, but the movements in their hands did not pause at all, and they raised their knives and sticks to give Shui Mobai the final blow.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a strong coercion enveloped them, so that the hands of the two did not fall after all, and no matter how they struggled, they could not exceed the slightest bit.
"Hum..."
The ground trembled slightly, the city gate opened, and a figure stepped out, and the powerful power emanated from his body, but it was Gong Yuan, the commander of the palace family, who was at the peak of martial spirits.
Gong Yuan grabbed a halberd and walked over, with a look in his eyes, he didn't expect that to this day, there are still people who dare to break into the city gate of the palace family, he wants to cut off the heads of these people and hang them on the city gate to set an example.
"Smack!"
A blood-stained hand suddenly lifted up, grabbed Gong Yuan's feet, and made his body stunned.
Gong Yuan frowned slightly, and when he looked down, his eyes shrank, and this person actually burned qi and blood to stop him.
But this has nothing to do with him, no matter how tragic the experience and past are, it is not a reason to break into the palace gate, but this person trembles in his hands and raises a piece of red armor, which makes his brain roar!
"Help... Save ......"
