Chapter 12: The Running Boy
Yang Ze, who woke up from his fainting, never imagined that he would lie on the board of the carriage, and his followers were bumping on the way to move away from Guyun Village. The entire village began to "relocate" to escape the disaster.
The crowd marched silently through the forest, only the sound of people rubbing their clothes, their feet on the grass, their bodies rubbing against the branches on the side of the road, and the sound of canes supporting the ground. Surviving warriors roamed the crowd, vigilantly staring at the movements in the depths of the jungle.
In the long queue of people who moved away, some of the wheels of the vehicles carrying the luggage got stuck in the stones of the shallow stream, setting off a crisp sound of water waves, and immediately people next to them came to help push the carriages and assist each other.
Yang Ze found that there were no An Jie, Bi Gong and others among the warriors in the surrounding villages. With a sinking heart, he asked, "What about the others, what happened after I fainted?"
"There were a lot of people in the village who rushed you over. Yun Na recalled the scene at that time, obviously still frightened, looked back at the distance, Yang Ze followed her gaze, and found that the other side of her gaze was the Guyun Peak where Guyun Village was located, and at this moment, there were countless buildings in Guyun Village on that peak, and there was already a firelight, flying fireflies, mixed with the wooden houses made of mahogany in Guyun Village, like a red light piercing the sky.
Yang Ze was furious when he saw it, and Yun Na's voice continued from his ears, "Some of the Cloud Wanderers we have helped in the back have also rushed to help. An Jie, Hua Xiao, Bi Gong and Uncle Hou Yin in the village, as well as the wanderers who came to help, used Guyun Village as the last line of defense, and dragged the lizard beast around, leaving us time to evacuate and contain the lion beast so that it could not track us, and the rest of the people would go to the assembly place to meet us."
Yun Na didn't continue. Fires broke out in many places in Guyun Village, and it was the warriors who stayed behind who were making the last effort to resist.
Probably she knew that although everyone had planned the assembly place after the separation, how many of the people who stayed in Guyun Village today would be able to get there, which would always be the result of not wanting to delve into it. Will they still be able to see these former friends, former neighbors, and relatives who were once related by blood?
The news of Yang Ze's awakening first excited a few villagers around who were discovered by Biyun Na later, and then it was like a whirlwind, passing towards both ends of the long snake-like Guyun Village.
In the jungle, the serpentine procession was moving at a slowing speed visibly slowing down. There was a brief cacophony at the front.
Soon after, I could see that Hua Shuo, the village chief of the village, Gu Yun Village, was in charge of general affairs, and even several elders of the clan association walked out of the crowd under the leadership of Hua Shuo. The people around them bowed their heads and saluted them at this moment, and in the face of such a crisis, many elders and village chiefs were already the objects of their most dependence and reverence.
Obviously, before this, the people in the village had already received an order from Yang Ze to notify the village chief and the clan council immediately once he woke up.
"No one can survive unharmed without being clawed by a lion lizard," said the elder who Bi Jian had initially questioned Yang Ze stepped forward, with a look of shame on his face, bowed to him and said, "I express my deep apologies for my previous rudeness and arrogance, and being able to stand up when the village is most dangerous is enough to prove your bravery and the confidence you bring us in the most critical moment." Cloud traveler from the Great Ye Country, you will be our Guyun Village forever friend. ”
The surrounding elders nodded to Yang Ze thoughtfully, their eyes full of trust and softness.
Several elders of the clan were even more ashamed. In the previous clan meeting, they suppressed and rejected Yang Ze, and the most important reason was not that they did not trust Yang Ze's identity, but because they thought that their status was enough to be equal to the village chief Hua Shuo, and they did not want to see his authority overriding them. It was only to intervene in ASUS's decision. And at this moment, Guyun Village was in danger, and everyone realized how shallow and obscure their original thoughts were.
Village Chief Hua Shuo patted Yang Ze's sturdy shoulder and said, "If I was not mistaken, you can already condense and transform into form, that is the true power that is condensed and turned into substance, you can materialize the true power, and you are already comparable to those highest-end martial artists in Jingyun City." It seems that the Blue Bear Beast was defeated with bare hands, Yun Na and An Jie Hua Xiao and they didn't make it up!"
As soon as Huashuo's words fell, the villagers around the audience set off a voice of discussion.
Although many people did not witness Yang Ze's attack at that time, according to the colorful narratives behind some of the warriors who retired from the village chiefs and elders, people can know the approximately.
These retreating warriors recounted the process and details of each step of the battle with the lizard, how Yang Ze shot at that time, how he threw his spear and broke the hardest bone spurs of the lizard's body, which was the most proud part of the lion's body. Then, how to take advantage of the situation to be unarmed, with several true powers that turned into white mangs, and face the lion and lizard beast claws that made countless wanderers around and the most elite warriors in the village fearful!
Although every defender of Guyun Village fought to be able to gain the dignity of human existence in this land and sea. Everyone deserves to be remembered. However, Yang Ze inevitably became the focus of everyone's discussion on the evacuation road at this moment.
No one has ever been able to confront a lizard head-on. Not even the most elite hunting team in the village could do it. But he did. And in the end, it can be intact under the claws of the lizardbeast, which is comparable to the sharpest sword in the world. This kind of deed, on the migration road of Guyun Village, whose fate is unknown, is enough to become a topic of discussion among the old and young women and children.
The entire village was shrouded in an unknown confusion, in a forest of beasts and a cold mist. People are scared in their hearts, they are afraid of the unknown, so they need to shape something to rely on, and they need to find comfort from their hearts to survive this cold and windy night of being uprooted.
The torches around him rattled, and the firelight reflected Yang Ze on the carriage clearly.
Hua Shuo sighed and continued to Yang Ze, "But the Green Bear Beast is a Green Bear Beast after all, and being able to defeat the Blue Bear Beast alone already represents the limit of manpower. No matter how strong the manpower is, it will never be able to compete with a natural fierce creature like the lizard head. So you don't have to mind, take care of your injuries, maybe, Guyun Village still needs to rely on you, so please."
The people around looked at Yang Ze silently and expectantly, worried about his current situation, and the expressions they showed were natural and real.
Yang Ze rolled over and got off the board and stood still, and some people took a step back.
Yang Ze clenched his fists and looked at himself, the sea of qi had never been so surging and excited, and he had the urge to vent the power in his body.
Looking at the firelight in the place of Gu Yun Peak, Yang Ze said to Hua Shuo, "I want to know what kind of road to take to return to Gu Yun Peak the fastest?"
Everyone was in an uproar. Yun Na held her mouth with her backhand, "Brother Yang"
Everyone didn't expect that Yang Ze's first reaction when he woke up was to go back.
Now that the village has turned into a battlefield to contain the lizards, and the warriors of the village are fighting to the death there, just so that we can go further, what's the point of you going back now?" said an elder from the side.
Yang Ze's chest is now difficult to express, and there are countless impulses to burst out of strength in his body! He just wants to vent at the moment!
Clenched his fists, Yang Ze grinned at Hua Shuo and the elders of Guyun Village, "My body is no longer in serious trouble, since there are warriors in the village to contain and protect me, I think that at this time, I can also add a little help, even if I have to withdraw at that time, I can be more calm." Don't worry, when the time comes, maybe I'll come to you with them. ”
There is no doubt that Yang Ze's words immediately made Asus and others excited. Yang Ze's strength was obvious, if he went back to add help to the village warriors who were fighting on Guyun Peak, in this way, many people would survive with his help, and it might be possible to reach the place where they agreed to meet.
"In that case, then you must be very careful! Don't be reluctant, if you find that the situation is not right, evacuate immediately" Hua Shuo said this, and suddenly shouted, "An Shen!
Two warriors stepped forward with spears in hand and bowed.
"The two of you are waiting for Yang Ze here to guide us to the next place!"
At this time, an elder-level figure untied a long-handled object wrapped in a thick cloth on his body, and uncovered the thick cloth, revealing a black sword with a pure black body. The sword is palm wide, the tip is an unequal trapezoid, and the handle is wrapped in tough animal skin, which makes the whole long sword look simple and heavy, and the most strange thing is that the sword body is like metal, and it seems to be made of some kind of stone, black and shiny, plausible, and the material cannot be seen.
The elder solemnly handed his hands to Yang Ze, "There are nothing good in Guyun Village, but this sword is a spiritual weapon that has been handed down. The name of the sword is 'Gu Mao', 濯, which means to cleanse evil spirits. It is a symbol that has always been guarded in our village. Now I'll hand it over to you. Gu Yun Village is now in the past, and I hope this sword will still protect you until you return safely. ”
When this sword was handed out, not only the village chief, but also the elders of the clan association, there was a solemnity and determination on their faces, and there was no objection. Yang Ze's actions have completely gained their trust, so that they can give Yang Ze this village ancient black sword, which symbolizes the protection totem, to Yang Ze for self-defense. After all, although he can condense and transform into shapes, if his flesh and blood body does not have a weapon commensurate with his strength, how can he fight against the claws of fierce beasts that can cut iron and steel?
At the moment when Yang Ze took over the long sword, it felt that although it was very heavy, it didn't seem to be as heavy as he imagined.
Yang Ze held Gu Hao in his hand, and when he moved his breath to probe it, he found that he couldn't detect the aura contained in the entire black sword, like a closed and intact box, isolating his divine sense. However, True Qi can be allowed to wander on this black sword. This discovery made Yang Ze even more strange, because if it was ordinary metal or some materials, it would largely isolate the transmission of true qi. Or there is a sudden attenuation during the transfer.
Some cultivators are able to indulge their True Qi in the air, that is, they have engraved the object with a specific spiritual talisman, or they have found something closest to their own dwarf. Generally speaking, it is very difficult for True Qi to be able to carry on objects.
However, the Gu Hao Black Sword in Yang Ze's hand was a different situation, the true qi could be wrapped in the black sword in a round, and it could be penetrated at will, like a tending arm, without any attenuation. Looking at the black sword again, it looks like iron but not iron, like stone and not stone, and it is impossible to identify its internal structure. Yang Ze was extremely curious.
Wrapped the black sword in a strip of cloth and carried it behind him, tied the belt, and looked up at the firelight of Gu Yunfeng.
Yang Ze showed his move, left the people of Guyun Village behind, and swept towards Guyun Peak, which was still fighting.
He ran like a swift leopard in the jungle, this kind of fast and violent running, ordinary martial artists generally could not last too long. Because this is a great physical drain.
However, every time Yang Ze stepped on the ground at the moment, the next step would fall a foot away. As soon as the old physical strength of the feet is exhausted, the true qi that crosses the two atmospheric seas will be conveyed immediately, and the new power will be born suddenly and in a steady stream.
Yang Ze had never run so heartily and vigorously! In his heart, he couldn't resist the ** and urge to face the lion beast again. Because that murderous creature can make him feel fear! And the power born of fear can make him strong!
Ever since he saw the overwhelming power of the Shinto Zhai Lei Donglai bombarding the Red Mansion ship in the waters of the Far East, Yang Ze profoundly developed a strong desire to master the power in this grand world! Not for anything else, but for his own destiny, and not to be controlled by others!
"The lion beast can use sound waves, why didn't you tell me in advance last time! Do you know that I almost planted it on it?"
"It's your own problem. If you want to become stronger, you have to get rid of this dependency mentality. No enemy will tell you what kind of hole cards he will have. What kind of moves will be used. What kind of plans will there be. So you have to be on your own. Yuan Shen floated out and said beside Yang Ze, "If you can't adjust these well, then it is inevitable to suffer a loss." ”
The boy who ran wildly, and the young man walked into a leisurely spirit body side by side.
Eerie picture in the moonlight.
"Then what should I do if I hang up like this?" Yang Ze scolded angrily, "Don't forget, you are my primordial god, if I die, you will also disappear!"
"Don't threaten an old man like that. The old man's voice suddenly raised.
Holding his flowing white beard, he glanced at Yang Ze who was running wildly next to him after a while, and said, "It's not wise to threaten me with death, you know, I am actually dead, and now, I am just an old man with countless memories who is unwilling to leave." I'm so old that I feel like I've lived too long, and I'm going to die completely one day, so I don't care if I'm gone forever the next moment. If you can't improve your strength and have to rely on yourself, then it's okay to die now. It is much more dignified and happy than being crushed to death by countless strong people in the future!"
Yang Ze was silent, and had to admit that what he said made sense. Thinking of the question that I was holding back after getting the Gu Hao Black Sword, "What is the origin of this sword, even I can't find out." ”
The old man sneered, "You can't find out, that's a matter of course." Don't be so surprised. Because even I only vaguely know what it is. If you are not sure, it is in vain to tell you. However, this little black sword is interesting, and it can seamlessly carry your true qi. In other words, you don't need to use the matching sword technique to exert its power at all. Any exercise can be performed through it. ”
The moment the old man finished speaking, Yang Ze had already held the hilt of the black sword with his backhand, and pulled it out, and a black cold glow reflected the moonlight of the flowing water.
He swung his sword as he ran. The white sword flew out from the tip of the ancient black sword, and a roadside boulder was suddenly cut in half!
