Chapter 20: Plank Road

The fire came and went quickly, and a fierce fire that should have burned everything on the mountain was extinguished by a sudden rainstorm. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Rao is like this, and the "Eight Along the Gate" is also a heavy loss. Only stone shelves were left in the mountain gate, and most of the dozens of houses were destroyed.

Plumes of black smoke rose from the beams of the houses that had been extinguished by the rainstorm, and a choking smell of burnt paste wafted everywhere.

Li Xiaomu was anxious, he didn't know how many falls he had on the slippery mountain road along the way, and his pace, which had been dexterous, was also messed up at this time, although the senior brothers of the sect were not good to him, but the feelings of stumbling for more than ten years also made him feel that this was his relatives, his brothers and sisters, although the master and the little junior sister treated him indifferently, but the master and the little sister were ......

Li Xiaomu was thinking about these people in his heart, his steps were even more chaotic, he tripped over something as soon as he ran into the mountain gate, he rubbed his knees in pain, and turned to look, "Senior Brother Liang!", he exclaimed, but Senior Brother Liang was motionless, he had a sword stuck behind his back, Xiaomu was stunned, and he didn't know what happened.

He stood up and looked into the courtyard by the remnants of the fire.

Corpses, corpses!

Countless corpses lay in the courtyard......

He shouted and ran towards the sect, but was covered by a person behind him, and just as he wanted to struggle, he heard a soft voice in his ear.

"Don't call, I'm Tao Tao, come with me-"

......

Li Xiaomu was taken to a stone room in the back mountain, where there were more than a dozen people sitting or lying, all of them with injuries, and several disciples were seriously injured, lying on the bed and groaning in pain.

Several division commanders were also bloodied and tired.

The deputy head of the main sect Jing Miao Palace, Gong Luo Yide, was the most seriously injured, lying motionless, his eyes closed and unconscious. The two young men of the main faction beside him stood by to take care of him.

Li Xiaomu saw that his sister Yan Suyin was applying medicine to his master, and his sister Su Yanyan and his senior brother Huo Manliang were standing aside, and his heart was relieved.

A room of people seemed to be discussing something, and at first glance Li Xiaomu couldn't help but be stunned, Li Xiaomu hadn't opened his mouth, Yan Suyin said quietly: "The master has been attacked by the evil sect, and there are only a few people left in the whole doorβ€”β€”"

Li Xiaomu felt sad in his heart and asked, "How, how can this be......? Why?"

"Why? It's not you! You ...... the demon girl" Huo Manliang scolded, but was interrupted by Su Dazhou's eyes, Huo Manliang was indignant, and said with hatred on his face: "Hmph, I didn't expect so many masters and apprentices of the sect to die, but you are such a waste but survived!"

Everyone looked at Li Xiaomu, but Li Xiaomu lowered his head and thought about his thoughts.

The former head Huang Yisheng looked at Li Xiaomu thoughtfully, and after a while, he said to Yan Su****: "Senior sister, take the disciples out first and then check and check, and we will discuss the countermeasures." ”

Yan Suyin nodded, glanced at her husband, got up slowly, and left the stone room with Li Xiaomu and the others.

Huang Yisheng stared at Xiao Mu's back, his deep eyes flashing.

"Master, what's going on?" asked Xiao Mu as soon as he came out of the stone room.

"Li Xiaomu, you disaster star! You-" Huo Manliang followed behind him, and scolded again.

"Man Liang, don't say it!" Yan Suyin reprimanded, sighed again, and said slowly: "Xiao Mu, my sect recently inadvertently obtained a treasure, it is said that this treasure hides a huge secret, if it can be cracked, it will be of great benefit to our faction and even the people of the world." We wanted to send it to the main faction tonight, but unexpectedly, we were targeted by the evil faction and sent a large number of masters to plunder. The whole faction was killed and wounded, even several of your division commanders were not spared, the dead were killed, the wounded were scattered, your fourth uncle was stripped of his heart and lungs, and the sixth uncle was burned alive...... Alas, your second uncle's family is even more trapped in the room, and they still don't know whether they are alive or dead...... However, fortunately, with the presence of people from the main faction and the assistance of the formation, we were able to repel the enemy, and Senior Brother Loyd of the main faction even cast a forbidden spell in order to extinguish the mountain fire, so that he lost his strength and fell unconscious. But we were spared a few of us, and the treasure was saved. But the enemy didn't succeed in a single blow, and soon more powerful characters will be sent to come, as for who the enemy is, it just seems that he feels the spirit of the demon spirit in the fight, if it is really the people of the demon clan, we will not be able to escape this catastrophe, alas!"

When Li Xiaomu heard Shi Niang say this, his heart was shocked, could it be related to Yao Xiaoyao, a girl from the demon clan? Did she summon the demon clan to kill so many people? But it can be seen that she treats the enemy with three points of kindness, and she doesn't look like a bad person at all...... Also, what does the treasure that Shi Niang said have anything to do with the treasures in the mouths of scholars and others?

Li Xiaomu was speculating wildly in his heart, when a disciple ran to him and asked them to return to the stone room quickly, and the teachers had something to explain.

Entering the house again, Li Xiaomu found that the eyes of all the teachers were looking at him tightly, and there was meaning in his eyes, and he was feeling strange that Master Su Dazhou had already opened his mouth.

"Apprentice, presumably your master has told you the reason for the incident, although the 'Eight Along Gate' has been hit hard, but fortunately we have lived up to our mission and kept the treasure, now, the top priority is to send this treasure to the main faction 'Tianhe'-" Su Dazhou paused, looked around at the people in the room, sighed and said: "But you also saw it, everyone is injured and their movement is restricted...... His eyes finally fell on Li Xiaomu, his eyes lit up, and he hesitated for a long time, as if he had finally made up his mind, and said loudly:" Li Xiaomu, the thirty-ninth generation disciple of this sect, obeyed orders-"

Li Xiaomu was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Ahh

"Now I order you to go to the Lord to send it to the treasure, and then set off after the second watch, this matter is very important, and there must be no half-point difference, do you understand?"

"Ah, this, this ......" Li Xiaomu was even more stunned.

Yan Suyin's face instantly turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Senior brother, Xiao Mu, he can't cultivate, how can he ......?"

Huang Yisheng said: "Senior sister, we are thinking about this - a discerning person can see the shallowness of Xiao Mu's skill at a glance, no one would have thought that we would hand over such an important thing to him, this is to put it in the place of death and then live, and you and I have most injuries, Xiao Mu is the most suitable." What's more, this is not a good thing for him, with Xiao Mu's qualifications, he may not have the opportunity to go to the main sect to practice in this life, if he does this this time, it will be a great achievement, the main sect real person will definitely treat him well, and he may really be able to achieve something in the future, this is a great opportunity for him to ascend to the sky!"

Tears appeared in Yan Suyin's eyes: "But, but ......"

Su Dazhou said impatiently: "Okay, don't say it, this is what we have decided again and again on expediency." ”

Huo Manliang hurriedly said on the side: "Master, uncle, uncle! Li Xiaomu is useless, and his cultivation is even more different from me......, how can he hand over such an important thing to him?

Su Dazhou said angrily: "You shut up for me!

Huo Manliang was about to argue, but Su Yanyan grabbed his sleeve and dragged him out of the stone room.

......

It has been nearly two watches, Li Xiaomu has been lying alone in a dilapidated room for a long time and can't sleep, his brain seems to be stuffed with countless threads, and he can't figure out the wisps - there are too many things encountered in the past few days, treasures, extermination, main faction, demon clan, scholars, Yao Xiaoyao...... And so on, all of which made him feel numb.

Why did the teachers who had always treated themselves badly suddenly take themselves so seriously? And the smell on the carriage they assigned to transport him just now was not the familiar aroma of incense to repel mosquitoes......

The more Li Xiaomu thought about it, the colder his heart became, and he shook his head vigorously, trying to throw away the terrible thoughts in his mind, but to no avail. He touched his arms, where there were some body protectors and runes that Shi Niang had just stuffed into him, and he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

A figure suddenly flashed into the room, Li Xiaomu stood up and looked, it was the little junior sister Su Yanyan......
