Chapter 124: Princess Bell
"Come, come with me. Anal took Coo's hand and ran deep into the cypress forest.
Gollum followed Anar less than twenty steps before a white shadow sprang out from behind the ancient cypress, and before Gollum could recover his senses, a black shadow popped out again......
"Did you see that?" asked Goo, slightly uneasy.
Anal stopped and sneered, but didn't answer.
Only then did Goo see that a white cat and a scruffy black cat were rubbing their heads against Anal's white boots. Anal squatted down, stretched out her hands as white as frost, and touched the black and white cats very gently.
A tabby cat with a white peach on its face also took advantage of Coo's inattention to get out at this time. The tabby cat is followed by a black, white, and gray cat.
The appearance of the tabby cat, the white cat and the black cat that appeared earlier instantly get out of the way. The tabby cat walked towards Anar like a noble queen......
"When my sister and I first came to Jianfu Temple, there were more than 40 of them, and then after the old monk died out, he died, and he ran away. There are only four left: 'Sloppy', 'Grey', 'Fool', and 'Queen', and they are called the 'Four Vajra Protectors' by my sister and me......"
Coo Coo only needs to look at it to match the cat to its name.
"Ash Ash is still the most agile in the group, even when forty cats are present, and, you know, its fur makes it invisible. The 'Fool' was a little sluggish, but it was extremely intelligent, and every time, it was the first to come out to greet my sister and me.
"'Sloppy' always likes to climb high, so he always looks dirty. The 'Queen' is the oldest among the 'Four Vajra Protectors', and it has extremely strong leadership talents......"
Listening to Anal introduce the characteristics of each cat, it is really difficult for Goo Gu to associate the two delicate princesses in front of her, Annal, who is in harmony with the cats, and her sister Payil, who loves cats as much as her, with the plot to assassinate Jiahai.
After a few thunderstorms, the sky changed, the temperature suddenly dropped a lot, and Gugu's right hand couldn't help rubbing his left arm, and said to Anar: "Your Royal Highness Princess, it's getting late, and this rain will probably not fall." It's better for you and me to leave quickly. ”
Anar got up and put on the veil, and the two walked side by side towards the forest. The twilight was coming in one after another, and only the general outline of the thatched house at the end of the path could be faintly discerned.
Coo thought the cats would follow, but found that they had already fled.
"Boom-"
"Smack-"
A bolt of lightning followed the muffled thunder, and the moment the lightning rushed down through the cracks in the treetops, the silver light was captured by the afterglow of the coo.
"This is the thatched hut of the Kusang Zen Master, he is the younger brother of the old monk, and he should be the oldest monk in the clouds. We took shelter from the rain in front of his hut, and it shouldn't disturb his meditation ......" Anal was not frightened by the thunder and lightning, but calmly gave the advice of Goo.
However, Goo, who had already felt the murderous aura, was not calm, and she was looking around for the source of the silver light.
At this moment, the wind suddenly rose, and the ancient cypress rolled with the wind, as if he had seen the tragic situation of the rolling hawthorn flowers twelve years ago, and the blood sprayed the flower branches.
The wind whipped the dark green leaves of the ancient cypress, making a mournful rustle...... The sound intensified the murderous momentum.
Anar also felt something, and unconsciously grasped Coo's hand tightly, and suddenly, there was a terrible sound of tree trunks breaking from the depths of the woods.
Anal jerked his back, and a shriveled cypress was blown down by the wind.
"Crunch-squeew-smack-thump-"
The heavy trunk of the tree crushed the branches of the ancient tree next to it, and it fell heavily to the ground.
The sound of Cooper falling to the ground was mixed with the sound of steady footsteps.
The branches scattered on the ground made a creepy rattling sound, and the murderous aura instantly rose to the extreme......
Coo's bright eyes blinked, and the group of seven people was all tightly wrapped in a thick black cloth except for a pair of eyes and the cold autumn thunder knife in their hands.
Looks, like seven hungry wolves in human skin!
It turned out that the dots found in the afterglow just now were the reflections of the hilts of the seven killers' Mid-Autumn Thunder Knife.
The first person is nearly eight feet tall, even if you can't see his eyebrows and eyes, you can still feel the fierce spirit behind the black cloth mask, this person is an out-and-out tough guy in the forbidden army - "bull's eye" Lao Hong.
Seeing this man and the outfit of this group, Anar was even more convinced that these killers were sent by the prince.
Anal's pretty face immediately tensed, and even every pore shrank, but fortunately she had put on a veil and did not reveal her panic.
At this moment, the wind is gone, and all the cypress trees are still.
Coo's face did not change as he looked at the seven people in front of him who were holding the Autumn Thunder Knife in their hands and were waiting for battle, and turned his head to look at Anar who was hiding behind her.
At this moment, one of the thinnest of the seven men in black walked over, and the other party stopped seven steps away from Googo.
"Your name?" Gugu put one hand on his waist and tapped lightly on the small wooden box.
"A knife in front of the royal door. "Humanity in black.
"He said that he was the forbidden army of Zixiao Palace. Anayi said to Goo.
"What are you doing here in this pure place?"
"Let the prince open his eyes and ask the princess to go back. ”
"Hmph, please princess? Then you have to ask my Bai You first if you agree!"
Bai You jumped out of the wooden box in an instant, and it became bigger in an instant, and the man in black held the knife in both hands, wanting to retreat, but thinking that this was in front of his companion, he couldn't help but reluctantly stopped the half step that was retreating.
Bai Youyou bared his teeth, his four legs bent slightly, ready to pounce again.
Suddenly, two cats jumped down from the cypress tree, "Wow-" one landed on top of the man in black's head and one on his shoulder...... The two cats work together to scratch, scratch, bite and hiss......
Everyone present, including Bai You, was stunned......
The cat's claws pierced the black clothes, and the sound of tearing the flesh came from time to time, and the man in black endured the pain of the flesh and skin, and reached out to grab the cat star who had crawled to his face, but he was scratched by the cat's claws.
"Boom—"
At this moment, a muffled thunder and lightning came down from the sky, illuminating the entire Cloudsdale.
The cat's claws precisely severed the artery of the black-clad man's wrist, and blood gushed out in lightning......
With the help of lightning, everyone could see his bloody face, which had been ruined by the cats, and I was afraid that the most superb surgeon in the entire Cloudsdale would not be able to save it.
Goo found that the men in black were fighting "Sloppy" and "Grey", their claws and teeth together, and indeed the men in black could not resist even if they had four hands.
Strangely, the remaining six people were there like wooden stakes, motionless, as if the pain of their companions, life and death had nothing to do with them.
The artery was cut by the claws of the cats, and the man in black who lost too much blood and fell to the ground died instantly. "Sloppy" and "Gray" are about to flee when the sound of autumn thunder unsheathed reaches her cooing ears, and by the time she realizes that the cats are in danger, it's too late.
The second man in black was much more agile than the man in black who had just fallen, and the autumn thunder cut through the night like lightning, and the "sloppy" was cut off by the waist.
"Meow—"
Ash screams in grief and flees to Goo and Anar, who shouts, "Goo Goo save it!"
"Bai You, up!", almost when he shouted the first word, Bai You rushed out like the wind, and the black-clothed man who was wiping the blood stains on the Qiu Lei knife with his sleeve dodged around his waist, turned to get up, and slashed at Bai You's buttocks with a thunderous momentum.
"Smack-", a silver light flew out.
"Poof-", the hilt of the Autumn Thunder sword trembled and hummed, and it was firmly inserted into the dirt at the feet of the ancient cypress.
Immediately, the man in black with his bare hands threw Bai You to the ground, and the next thing he heard was the screams of the man in black, and then, the screams were gone, only the sound of a broken skull remained.
......
Lao Hong, the man in black who was the leader, held the Qiu Lei Dao in his arms, stood up, and asked, "What is this?"
"It's nothing, it's just a lesson at best!"
"Lesson?I'm afraid this big wolf won't be able to leave today, right?!"
"Then you'll have to ask if it agrees. Coo replied proudly.
"Not necessarily. ”
Lao Hong slowly pulled out the autumn thunder, and the steel made a piercing sound, which made Bai You a little nervous.
The autumn thunder came out of the sheath, and in the blink of an eye, the knife was like thunder, and the knife light was like lightning, but seeing the sky full of knife shadows like torrential rain, the viewer really pinched a handful of sweat for Bai You.
Bai You seemed to be stupid, and he didn't dodge, just sat quietly in place, waiting quietly.
Suddenly, Bai You got up, and Lao Hong's seven knives turned into a false momentum and slipped to Bai You in one step. Bai You's buttocks twisted suddenly, and his long tail swept horizontally, Lao Hong opened his right foot and leaned out, narrowly avoiding Bai You's first sweep.
Bai You, who quickly turned around, made up for the second cut, but Lao Hong had already calculated the trajectory of Bai You's tail, and the Autumn Thunder Knife made a real move and slashed at Bai You's tail like lightning.
"Bai You-", while cooing out, the crane bone whip was also drawn from his waist.
A few white hairs cut off by the Autumn Thunder Knife fell into the night, and Bai Yu let out a low hissing sound and fled.
"Smack-"
A drop of rain fell on Googo's arm holding the crane's bone whip.
......
The imprint of the rain on the bluestone pavement on the street has been like a hidden star, and the pedestrians on the street have set up oil-paper umbrellas, but the young man who holds the silver fir wood on his back has not taken an umbrella.
The drainage system in the south of the city is very poor, and the water on Kung Fu Street is almost below the surface of the feet for a while.
The further east you go, the fewer pedestrians there are, and when you reach Suzaku Street, there are only one person left on the street, and the shops on the street are closed and their windows are closed.
Except for the curtains of rain and the sound of raindrops crashing on the buildings on the ground, there seemed to be nothing else between heaven and earth...... Suddenly, Shaoyi stopped his steps, and several tall figures loomed in the depths of the shower curtain.
