9 · Assault (B)

[Not far away, a musk butterfly flapping its wings stopped on the lonely treetop of Yun Mengze, and its red compound eyes recorded the scene in front of it. 】

"Protector! look!" shouted the attendant behind him.

Rose turned around and saw a fiery serpent soaring from outside the Garden of Curiosities.

"Protector, what should I do? It looks like someone is attacking here. ”

Rose's head spun quickly: the Ancient Mirror Gate only sent a large number of warriors to leave this place this afternoon, and someone came to attack at night, this connection is too ingenious, and it is likely that someone will cooperate with the outside. It's a gang strife, and he's not qualified to participate.

"No matter outside, find Chen Jian and Chen Chan first. Protect their safety!"

Ross said it righteously.

"Yes!"

Ross and the others were running towards the depths of the Treasure Garden, and Chen Jian was even more so.

He didn't know what had just happened, but he instinctively ducked to the side, and then the dagger slashed past his left arm, carrying a cold gust of wind.

It was the original owner's subconscious that saved him.

Chen Jian felt reborn after the catastrophe, but the matter was not over yet, but it was even more dangerous. There is no doubt that the murderous aura he felt before was real, and in the Treasure Garden, someone wanted to take his life.

Here are overgrown with weeds and knotted roots, but Chen Jian is like walking on the ground, quickly shuttling through the dense forest. He doesn't run like a headless fly, but in a very short period of time by the density of the surrounding plants to determine whether people come and go frequently, although this method is not reliable.

After running for about a quarter of an hour, Chen Jian couldn't feel Fang Cai's murderous aura, and in front of him, it was a simple wooden house.

"Chen Chan!" Chen Jian shouted, "I'm Chen Jian!"

Before he could finish speaking, the wooden door had been opened.

"Chen Chan!"

Chen Jian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her safe and sound.

"What's wrong?" Chen Chan's eyes widened.

Living in the depths of the Garden of Curiosities, she had no idea what was going on outside.

"Something is wrong. Chen Jian said, "Bring your things, we're going to leave here." ”

"Leave?!" the girl was taken aback.

"That's right, there's someone coming in from outside. Chen Jian said simply, "There were still people who wanted to kill me just now." ”

"Where are we going?" Ms. Chen said.

"Just go further inside. Chen Jian had already thought about it. Although the Ancient Mirror Gate is isolated from the world, it is impossible to have only one way out of the Treasure Garden.

"But there's no way inside!"

"How can there be no way? The earth is round. ”

“...... What?" Chen Chan froze in place like a sculpture, looking at him blankly.

"Just follow me anyway. Chen Jian said.

Chen Chan looked at the young man in front of him with such a firm voice and nodded vigorously. She ran back to her room, grabbed a few pieces of clothing from the closet, and tied them up in a haphazard manner.

"Let's go!"

At the same time, there was a sound of killing outside the Rare Wonder Park.

Just a quarter of an hour ago, dozens of mysterious people wearing black robes and covering their faces with pitch-black masks forcibly broke into the Ancient Mirror Gate, and in the face of the interrogation of the disciples of the Ancient Mirror Gate, they didn't say a word, and directly drew their swords and cut off each other's heads.

For a time, the ancient mirror gate was in chaos.

The comers are not good. The entire Ancient Mirror Sect immediately went out to fight back, and the two elders except Liu Xingjue also came forward to meet the enemy.

The black-robed people had already prepared, and they were methodically divided into two groups, two of them took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Treasure Garden, and the other twelve warriors fought with the people of the Ancient Mirror Gate.

A large number of disciples of the Ancient Mirror Sect were sent out - because no one would have thought that when the world was so peaceful, someone would take advantage of the fire to rob - and there were only more than thirty disciples who could fight at present, and they were caught off guard in the face of a sudden attack that cut the grass and eradicated the roots, and there were many masters among the black-robed people.

It didn't take long for Liu Xing to see that the situation was not good, and he also joined the fight.

More than once he wanted to unveil the enemy's mask, but the other party was well protected.

He couldn't imagine which gang would do this to Gu Jingmen, and what made him even more uneasy was that the other party had carefully planned this attack, intending to make the gang of Gu Jingmen completely wipe out in the rivers and lakes!

"Where's Rose?!"

Liu Xingjue yelled, telling the people who couldn't fight to find Rose.

With Rose and the few humble knights he brought, the situation can be reversed!

But where is Ross? Liu Xing is absolutely inseparable, and those who have no combat effectiveness have long been trembling. They appear to be looking for Rose, but they are likely to be looking for a way to escape.

"The boss has been killed!"

The man in black who pretended to be a disciple of the Ancient Mirror Sect suddenly shouted in the dark.

"The boss was killed!?"

"It's over! The head of the house is a glorious knight, and he was actually killed?!"

"Who the hell are these black-robed people?!"

The three of them became tigers, and the news of the killing of the head suddenly spread throughout the battlefield, and the real head was entangled by the man in black and could not refute the rumors.

"The head of the family was beheaded by that man!"

"We are no match for them at all......"

As the rumors intensified, the already passive battle situation now became a crushing trend, and the black-robed people went from attacking to attacking, and finally to slaughter.

Ten minutes later, more than 30 warriors fell under the blades without exception, and the remaining women and children who were powerless were also strewn all over the field.

The only people who are still dying, only Liu Xingjue and the head who fell to the ground. As for the black-robed man, only three people died.

"You ......" Liu Xingjue coughed up a mouthful of blood and glared at the black-robed man in front of him, "Who the hell is it?"

The black-robed men didn't take him seriously at all, but exchanged glances with each other, asking if they wanted to make the next move.

One of the black-robed men nodded, and the others immediately moved.

With a bang, the fire ignited from the cottage.

"You——?! you—" The eyes of the boss who fell to the ground oozed blood.

He couldn't believe that the cottage that his ancestors had worked so hard to run for a hundred years was so easily destroyed. What made him feel most angry and regretful was that the other party used a cunning sneak attack, maybe even the edict of the imperial court was forged by them!

A black-robed man walked past him, raised his long sword, and pierced his chest.

"Ross is in the Garden of Curiosities. ”

The black-robed men whispered the results of the investigation to their leader.

"Rose knows my swordsmanship and can't fight him. The leader said, "But he won't help the Ancient Mirror Sect either, am I right?"

Just now, Liu Xingjue, who was dying, had been tied up by the black-robed man and held by the leader's side.

"What the hell are you ...... Who is it?" blood flowed from Liu Xing's mouth.

"I suggest you talk less, our doctor here is not very skilled. The leader's eyes revealed a smile.

Liu Xing definitely understood that they were going to capture him alive. He will not let them succeed.

He quickly gathered scattered Ze Qi in his body, intending to explode himself.

What's going on? Liu Xingjue found that he couldn't control his anger at all.

The leader laughed softly: "Want to use the painless method of self-detonation?haha, if you have the guts, it's not bad to bite your tongue and kill yourself." ”

"You-" The other party was provoking him. He trembled and stuck his tongue between his teeth, and with a strain of his upper and lower jaws, an unbearable pain spread from his nerves to his brain. He tried a few times, but only a trace of blood oozed from his tongue.

He gave up. It's too painful.

The leader didn't say anything, as if he had expected it all.

Silence is the greatest contempt.

He walked into the garden of curiosities, whose gate had been destroyed, and walked in one direction as if he had returned home.

In an instant, Liu Xingjue saw that the leader's eyes seemed to be divided into many small round pieces.

"It's so cool. The leader muttered.

Liu Xingjue felt strange, it was the middle of September, how could he say "cool"? Could he mean something else?

In any case, he honestly followed the black-robed man towards the Garden of Treasures, and he knew where this was the way to go—the Ancient Dao Fei Heart.

The Ancient Dao Fei Heart is the most precious plant in the Ancient Mirror Gate, and all the plants that can grow so many strange and strange plants in the Rare Garden are attributed to the Ancient Dao Fei Heart in the deepest part of the Rare Garden.

It is a plant found by the first masters, and it has a peculiar appearance that can nourish a piece of land that resembles the shape of corn grains, so the whole of the Treasure Garden takes on this shape, and the tip of the grain is where the heart of the ancient Dao Fei is located.

The road to the Curiosity Garden was winding, but the leader seemed to know the road well, and he walked steadily, without looking around.

Liu Xingjue was surprised, even if he had sent someone to infiltrate the Treasure Garden to understand the path just now, it was really unbelievable that he could do it so clearly. Could it be that he was once a member of the Ancient Mirror Sect, or was there a disciple of the Ancient Mirror Sect among the black-robed people?

There were a lot of messy scenes on the road, and Liu Xingjue guessed that it was Ross who made a mess of it in order to test Chen Jian. Where have they gone now?

He should have been angry, but now that the Ancient Mirror Gate has existed in name only, he has also become a prisoner. He didn't want to think about it anymore.

How could such a drastic change happen on this night?

He sighed bitterly, and a cloudy tear flowed from the corner of his eye.

Before they knew it, they had already walked in front of Gu Dao Fei's heart.

The leader stepped on the green mud and slowly approached the strange plant surrounded by stone stakes.

The ancient road Fei heart has a long and slender main stem, it has only six leaves, each of which drags a "flower", the material of the "flower" is like jade, in the moonlight is exquisite, the shape is like a human heart, so it is called "Fei heart".

"I can't imagine that such a small plant can create such a beautiful and rare garden. ”

The leader sighed.

"Please take it away for us, Elder Liu. ”

Sure enough, this is their purpose, but is it necessary to destroy the door to this extent?! Liu Xingjue roared in his heart.

"Elder Liu, why don't you move?" the leader smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "As the saying goes, 'stay in the green mountains, don't worry about running out of firewood', the elder still listens to us." ”

Liu Xing had mixed feelings, and slowly approached the heart of the ancient road. For a moment, he wanted to destroy this flower of sin, but he couldn't bear to do it, compared to a martial artist, he was an unprecedented pharmacist, such a unique thing in the world, how could he do it?

The leader sees all this in his eyes and is in control.

In less than a moment, the delicate Gu Dao Fei Heart was placed in the palm of the leader's hand.

"Good. ”

The leader nodded, and deposited it in the box that had been prepared long ago.

Liu Xingjue saw the doorway of the box.

It wasn't just an expensive gold box, but it was specially built for Gu Dao Feixin. Gu Dao Fei's heart is so cold, the box has a layer of ice and water inside, relying on the black-robed man to continuously absorb heat from afar, keeping the temperature in the box suitable.

The other party knew Gu Dao Feixin so well, which made Liu Xingjue feel foggy.

Who the hell are they?

As he thought, the smell of burnt food crept into his nostrils.

"The elder plans to accompany the burial of the Garden of Curiosities?" the leader's words brought him back to reality.

"You?!"

He was planning to burn down the Garden of Curiosities!

"Elders don't have to be distressed," the leader said, lifting the box, and uttered the mantra - "Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about running out of firewood." ”

With the leader's sneer, the group disappeared into the bright moonlight.

......

The flames splashed everywhere, and the red of the sky lit up the night, melting the dense fog of the Soul Relief Abyss.

I don't know how long it took, the night was dark, the day was also dark with thick smoke, the flames seemed to burn tiredly, and the ghostly waves gradually fell as the fuel ran out, like an eternal mime.

Quietly, and slowly.

Not far away, a musk butterfly flapping its wings stopped on the lonely treetop of Yunmengze, and its red compound eyes recorded the scene in front of it.

In the year 585 of the Dragon Calendar, the ancient mirror gate, which had stood for a hundred years in Xie Lingyuan, disappeared in the flames.
