Chapter 5: The Guardian of the Shadows
In the death row cell, Su Heng, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly stood up, dressed in white, "Let's go, let's go out." ”
Wujiang, who was already in a daze and was about to fall asleep, was woken up all of a sudden, he looked at Su Heng blankly, but Su Heng grabbed his shoulder, "Master, what's wrong?"
"It's too late, let's get out of here!" Su Heng slapped open the chain he had just disposed of with his palm, jumped with Wujiang, and stepped on a piece of masonry hidden in the darkness.
"Follow me and pay attention to where I step on. Su Heng tried his best to keep his voice low, now that it was close to dawn, if he didn't leave, I was afraid that there would be many variables, and even his life would be worried.
Zhao Qitian, an unkempt man on the side, looked up at the white figure jumping in the darkness, a pair of purple eyes revealing a thoughtful look.
Su Hengyun had enough eyesight to see the situation in front clearly, there were several protruding masonry hidden in the darkness, which seemed to be spreading ahead, and there was a layer of hidden secret passages at the top of the death row, if you hid in it, it was enough to isolate the sight below. Although the secret passage is narrow, it extends far away, and I think that the man in black left with the help of this secret passage yesterday.
"I saw the situation when the man in black left the death row yesterday, and I dared to conclude that there was something wrong with the top of the death row, and I thought about the secret passage left when the death row was built at this time. Su Heng didn't explain too much, jumped into the dark passage, and grabbed Wujiang again, and the two of them curled up in the dark passage, moving forward slowly step by step.
Suddenly, there was the sound of chains pulling outside the death row, and then dense footsteps broke into the death row, and the fire outside the dark passage suddenly lit up.
"Your Excellency!"
"The prisoner is gone!"
With two exclamations in a row, the official hurried back.
The death row instantly became panicked, and the terrible screams spread far and wide, "Criminals escape! Criminals escape!"
"Search me! Those two death row inmates must not have gone far, search for me!"
"Give me an order, martial law in the whole city, all the officials are called, and those two people must be found within two hours!"
The county magistrate blushed and issued one order after another, followed by a loud noise, and there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the death row, and after about a quarter of an hour, the death row was closed again with a bang.
Su Heng and Wujiang, who were hidden in the secret passage, waited for another stick of incense before continuing to slowly squeeze their bodies and move forward.
In the darkness, only the breathing of two people was trying to suppress their breathing.
The dark passage is winding and very slippery, with an upward path, and it is difficult to walk with one step and two steps down.
Wujiang silently recited the Buddhist scriptures, hoping to dispel the fear in his heart, he encountered such a disaster for the first time in his life, and his small body, which had only turned ten years old, could not stop trembling even if it was full of courage.
"Don't be afraid, I have everything with me, your master has entrusted you to me, and I will definitely protect you. Su Heng patted Wujiang's little head, took Wujiang's hand and took another step up.
I don't know how long it took, maybe it was an hour, or it could be two hours, I didn't know the sun and the moon in the dark, and finally Su Heng was careless on a stone, and then stopped.
"There's no road ahead. Su Heng stretched out his hand and touched the stone above his head, the touch was cold and a bloody breath spread on the stone, and a faint light shot in from the gap.
Su Heng supported the wall of the dark passage with one hand, and pressed on the stone with the other, a huge force exploded instantly, only to hear a boom, the stone above his head suddenly exploded, and the long-lost sunlight shone on the two of them.
Su Heng grabbed Wujiang's hand, and the two jumped up and landed lightly on the ground.
But the surrounding scene made the two of them can't help but feel a chill in their hearts, where they are, it turned out to be a mass grave, overgrown with weeds, even if it was early spring, but it was still showing the decay of the withered yellow, crooked tombstones could be seen everywhere, and more were nameless tombs without names, and the stone that was blocking the top of the head just now was the stone pressed on the head of a grave.
"Let's go......" Su Heng patted the Wujiang who was a little stunned, recited the Buddha's name without borders, and followed Su Heng quickly to the outside of the mass grave.
At this time, the sun is rising in the east, there are many shrubs and weeds in the mass graves, shadows are horizontal, and the ghost wind is gusting, and ordinary people dare not come here easily.
Su Heng walked briskly with Wujiang facing the sun, unwilling to stay in the mass grave for a few more moments, but before he could take a few steps, two people blocked their way.
"I've been waiting for you for an hour, and it's been a little slow. The black-clothed man wearing a vulture mask stepped forward and looked at Su Heng, his eyes under the mask revealing coldness, "It is said that the white-clothed Su Demon Suit is not stained with blood, but now when I see it, it is disappointing...... I forgot to tell you that there are vultures under the command of the Lower Throne. ”
"Youlangtai Youlang Wei ......" Su Heng's heart tightened slightly, he didn't expect that the person he didn't want to meet would target him so quickly.
The corners of the vulture's mouth exposed under the vulture's mask raised slightly, revealing a trace of blood, "Back then, Lord Diwei Throne personally chased and killed you, allowing you to escape, but today I bumped into you, it seems that you are also in a bad year." ”
"There are one hundred and eight ghost birds in the Youlang Terrace, and each of the hundred Youlang Guards under the Youlang Bird seat has the strength of a top first-class master, is it possible to dispatch two people today to deal with me, a person with no strength at all?" Su Heng's eyes were cold, he blocked Wujiang behind him, these two people in front of him were outlaws, and they didn't care about the face of the master at all, and it was very likely that the two of them would shoot together.
The vulture looked at another companion with a half-faced poisonous scorpion, and when he saw the man's eyes, he immediately smiled, it seemed that Su Heng was already their chopping board fish, "From the time you saved the Beiji traitor, you should have thought that there would be such a day." The adults have an order, and those who contact Beiji will be guilty of complicity and rebellion. ”
"Whoever is a traitor, heaven and earth have their own justice, not on the basis of you dog minions. Su Heng sneered, the true qi in his body was constantly surging, ready to make a move at any time.
"When I take you down, I'll see if your mouth is as hard as it is now. Before the vulture could finish speaking, its body instantly rushed forward, and a fierce aura exploded like a big bird spreading its wings.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
......
Su Heng pushed away the boundless, and he also stepped forward, and the two of them palmed each other in the blink of an eye, and the majestic energy shot out in all directions, raising smoke and dust in the sky.
"The strength of the first product? It seems that the white-clothed Su Demon has finally declined. The vulture laughed wildly, and his palm pierced through Su Heng's defense, reprinted on Su Heng's right chest.
"Poof!" The corners of Su Heng's mouth were stained with blood, and a mouthful of blood spurted out several feet, but he didn't retreat, gritted his teeth, but slapped his left palm on the vulture's shoulder with the help of this huge force.
"Click!"
The sound of bones shattering was clear to the ear, and the vulture's right arm hung limply.
For the first time, Su Heng had to exchange injuries for injuries!
"It seems that the strength of the Youlang Guard is nothing more than that. Su Heng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face was pale, and the vulture's palm almost pierced his right chest just now, at this time, his body was like a river and a sea, and his body was in great pain.
The vulture snorted and ravaged up again, although his right arm was broken, his left arm was like a poisonous snake, stabbing at Su Heng's neck.
At the moment of crisis, Su Heng endured the pain and dodged a step to the right, but he was still grazed in the shoulder, and a bloody arrow shot out, and Su Heng's face turned even paler.
The vulture was still about to make a move, when suddenly a Buddha horn sounded behind him, and he saw Wujiang rushing up with both fists.
"Bang!" a dull sound of fists and flesh clashing sounded, and the vulture's whole body was punched and flew out several feet.
"Ahem!" the vulture half-knelt on the ground, looking at Wujiang in disbelief, he never expected that a ten-year-old Wujiang would be able to seriously injure him with a punch, the punch just now almost shattered his internal organs, and he couldn't move at all.
Su Heng was also surprised, looking at the boundless in front of him, he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Master, don't worry, I will follow the master's last wish and protect you!" The crisp words were mixed with a trembling firmness.
Another man with a poisonous scorpion mask suddenly sneered, "A monk would even sneak attack, is this also what the Buddha taught you?"
"The master once said that the Buddha is angry, and now he is the king, and the lord is angry. Wujiang looked at this person, not daring to relax in the slightest.
"Very well, then let me try your catties. The scorpion disappeared in an instant.
"Be careful!" Su Heng hurriedly reminded him, but after all, Wujiang didn't have any experience in fighting, and in a few moves, he was slapped in the back of the head by a poisonous scorpion, and he fainted instantly.
"It's up to you next, Beiji traitor!" The poisonous scorpion didn't even look at Wujiang, turned his head and slapped Su Heng with a palm, and a touch of blue appeared in his palm.
