The Scroll of Guns Chapter 15 (2)
Liu Feng, who was the first to rush over, had an extremely ugly face, and the murderous intent in his eyes was rampant. He secretly cursed a few subordinates who had misbehaved because of lust in his heart, and he had already raised the knife in his right hand. He shortened slightly, dodged the half-cut iron cage that flew in, and rushed towards the dryad.
The iron cage thrown by the tree spirit at random landed on the table in front of Meng Laosan's house, and the dishes on the table were smashed to pieces, and even the "table" that was put together was immediately shattered. Meng Laosan was so frightened that his face was pale, and he hugged the girl and shrank in the corner tremblingly.
The other four also reacted quickly and drew their swords to fight. Instead of rushing at the dryad, the one-eyed man rushed towards another carriage. They had seen the difficulties of the dryads, and they were able to catch the two dryads at that time, all thanks to the special weapons and drygrass that had been given to them from above. Even so, only half of the ten-man team that was sent out at the beginning was left. Grinding the drywood into a powder and sprinkling it around the dryad can make the dryad gradually dehydrate and weak. Without weapons and hay, they have no chance of victory.
This time, however, the dryad was clearly obedient, and soon noticed the one-eyed man's movements, and it spread its legs and moved towards another carriage. It is slow on its feet, but its stride is large, and it is much closer than the one-eyed man. It blocked the blade swung by Liu Feng with one hand, and suddenly gave birth to several branches with the other hand, like a poisonous snake that suddenly rose up when hunting, shot out and smashed on another carriage, the carriage suddenly cracked, and then it rolled it up, threw it out in a circle, and all kinds of fragments fell to the ground, different shapes, incomplete, Liu Feng and others saw that these things were already waste.
Liu Feng's face became even more gloomy, and he kicked on the tree spirit's arm and bounced back. His previous slash was aimed at leaving a slight white mark on the dryad's body, but he didn't hesitate to hit the ground and pounced again. At this moment, the other three people also surrounded and slashed at the feet of the tree spirit. The dryads were one against four, and their bodies were far less agile than them, and they didn't know how many knives they had been cut down, but apart from cutting off one or two branches or leaving a few white marks, the dryads were not affected in the slightest.
"Use fire!" Liu Feng finally reacted.
The one-eyed man who was furthest away from the battle hurriedly ran towards Meng Laosan's hut, and then walked out with a torch in his hand. Meng Laosan, who was sitting in front of the house at the beginning, tried his best to protect his daughter, not daring to look up, trembling all over. The one-eyed man looked at Meng Laosan and was extremely depressed. He knew in his heart that no matter whether he could take down this tree spirit in the end, the blame from above must not be avoided. Therefore, he has been wandering around the outer circle, trying to escape.
It's all to blame on this old guy! Looking at the old man and the young man sitting on the ground with each other, he suddenly had such a thought in his heart. As far as he could think, his right hand holding the knife poked forward, stabbed at Meng Laosan's vest, and pierced through his chest.
Blood gushed out, and the girl looked at the bright red in front of her, shocked, and looked at Meng Laosan in her arms at a loss. It's just that Meng Laosan's vitality gradually dissipated, and when he was dying, there was a love in his eyes, he stretched out his hand to touch his daughter's face, but he could clearly feel that his strength was passing like flowing water, one hand was hanging in the air, and the reflection of the girl in his eyes gradually dissipated.
The hand in mid-air fell abruptly.
The girl covered Meng Laosan's wound in a panic, hugged him and sobbed in a low voice.
The one-eyed man looked at the girl with blood on her face, and she had a thrilling beauty at this time. He suddenly felt his breathing heavi, and his eyes were full of burning desire. But when he raised his eyes for the girl, he was surprised to find that those bright eyes revealed a decisive killing intent.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl had such fierce eyes, as if she wanted to pierce her heart with ten thousand arrows, and like a raging fire that wanted to devour him. The one-eyed man couldn't help but be in a trance. For some reason, he suddenly regretted it.
A look of surprise suddenly flashed in the girl's eyes, and at this moment, the one-eyed man noticed a sound behind him. He reacted quickly, and the torch in his left hand swung back, but it slashed into the air. He was about to turn around when he was suddenly picked up by a man at his feet. He lost his balance and was about to swing his knife for a moment, and his turn was interrupted.
The one-eyed man, whose legs were bound, fell backwards, and then his eyes reflected an upside-down figure and a wooden stick that flew in front of him and quickly enlarged in front of him. He held the knife in front of him, and the stick snapped, but before he could see who the figure was, his head slammed into the ground. In a trance, he suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, struggled to raise his head, and saw Xiao Yilan. He held the leg of the table, which had just been severed by a knife, but the cut was sharp, and it had been stabbed in the abdomen of the one-eyed man.
Li Zheng quickly turned over and stood up, kicking the one-eyed man on the head, and the one-eyed man completely lost consciousness. Li Zheng hurriedly picked up the stone axe used to chop wood, and slashed it on the one-eyed man's chest, then gasped and sat on the ground with some exhaustion. Xiao Yilan looked at the table leg in his hand, his face was pale, and he quickly let go of his hand. He didn't want to look at the one-eyed man's body, so he turned his head and stepped aside, only to feel a little sick to his stomach. Xiao Yilan took a few deep breaths and restrained his desire to vomit. Li Zheng's face was also very ugly, he glanced at Xiao Yilan, and saw that his expression had gradually returned to normal, so he forcibly suppressed his discomfort and slowly paced to the side.
This is the first time the two of them have killed someone, and if it weren't for the one-eyed man being a little distracted for a while, it would be difficult for the two of them to have a chance of winning even if they sneak attacked. Xiao Yilan is still a little afraid when he thinks about it now. He noticed that the girl holding Meng Laosan on the ground kept looking up at himself and Li Zheng teaming up to sneak attack, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes. Sensing Xiao Yilan's gaze, the girl lowered her head again.
After all, Xiao Yilan was successful in the sneak attack, and he was a little embarrassed, so he smiled wryly. But he caught a glimpse of Meng Laosan, who had lost his vitality and was gradually getting cold in the girl's arms, and immediately understood. The death of a person who depends on each other in front of his eyes is a heavy blow to everyone.
Xiao Yilan looked at the tears in the corners of the girl's eyes and the blood on her face. He couldn't bear it in his heart, so he walked to the girl's side lightly and comforted him in a low voice: "The deceased is gone, take care of yourself." ”
The girl's body shook slightly, but she did not speak.
Li Zheng walked back, his face back to normal. At this time, both of them turned their attention to another battlefield. Although the tree spirit is extremely powerful, Liu Feng and the four of them are very flexible, and they are going around with the tree spirit, and the scene is a little stalemate for a while.
After overcoming the discomfort of killing for the first time, the two just wanted to strike while the iron was hot and quickly take care of Liu Feng and the others. It's also strange to say, a moment ago, I was worried that the dryad would kill me to vent my anger, but now the two of them coincidentally went to the battlefield. Li Zheng picked up the one-eyed man's knife and rushed over there first. Xiao Yilan hesitated slightly, picked up the axe used to chop wood at the door of the house, and followed behind Li Zheng.
Liu Feng had been fighting with the tree spirit for a long time, and he had already found that the one-eyed man had not reacted for a long time, and guessed that something might have happened, but when he turned his head, he was still a little surprised to see Li Zheng and Xiao Yilan who came over. He cursed, retracted his blade, and avoided the vine man swept by the tree spirit, but turned around and rushed towards Li Zheng.
Due to his retreat, the encirclement of the previous four suddenly became a gap, and the rhythm of the remaining three suddenly slowed down, and the dryad seized the opportunity, and the thorny rattan extended from his hand to attack one of them, instantly piercing that person like a blade.
Liu Feng heard the screams of his subordinates behind him, but he didn't look back, but accelerated forward. The weapons they relied on were destroyed, the powder of the hayweed had long been scattered in the wind, he had already had the idea of retreating, and the punishment from above was a matter of the future, and now the most important thing was to live. He knew that although he was now tied with the Dryad, firstly, because the Dryad had not fully recovered, and secondly, the four of them were waiting for the one-eyed man to bring torches, and they were all holding on in one breath, but after a while, if they could not support him, they would be defeated.
It's just that if you don't kill these two bad people before you retreat, it's hard to understand the hatred in your heart. This thought flashed through Liu Feng's heart. He didn't know how the young master and the blacksmith-like young man had untied the trap they had set up and brought the dryads back to life, but he was determined that these two must have been the ones who were in the way.
Li Zheng and Xiao Yilan just wanted to interfere with the enemy, and they didn't really think that they could fight against this kind of enemy, and killing the one-eyed man was largely due to luck. Looking at Liu Feng's attack, the two of them suddenly panicked, and Li Zheng, who was rushing in front, raised his knife to meet Liu Feng, but Liu Feng's figure suddenly turned around, flashed past him, and Li Zheng's knife flew into the air. Xiao Yilan looked at Liu Feng, whose eyes were rapidly enlarged, and his scalp was numb, but he still waved the axe in his hand, trying to block Liu Feng.
Liu Feng's knife was faster than that of the one-eyed man, Xiao Yilan even saw only an afterimage, and then he felt a chill in his chest, and even saw the blood spurting out of his heart, which was blood-red. A wave of pain and tiredness swept over me.
Liu Feng withdrew the knife, his footsteps moved sideways, and another knife attacked Li Zheng. After all, Li Zheng was born as a blacksmith, and his physical fitness and reaction speed are much better than Xiao Yilan's, and it is precisely because of this that Liu Feng chose to bypass Li Zheng and attack the weaker Xiao Yilan first. Although the knife almost came off, Li Zheng still barely blocked Liu Feng's knife. He took a few steps back, his hand aching. If Liu Feng stabbed again, he would have no power to fight back.
But Liu Feng didn't swing the second knife. The screams came and went, and not far away, the dryad had pierced the last person's body with a rattan hole. He shook his sword, for fear that the tree spirit would chase him, so he quickly turned around and fled into the distance.
Li Zheng looked at Xiao Yilan on the ground, and immediately panicked, and he didn't expect to chase Liu Feng. Covered in human blood, the dryad walked slowly toward his still-lifeless companion. Li Zheng turned his head to look at the two tree spirits, and then looked down at Xiao Yilan who was lying in a pool of blood, and suddenly became nervous. If the dryad wants to vent his anger, he seems to be already meat on the knife board. Li Zheng couldn't help but swallow.
The tree spirit did not show hostility, it put his companion at his feet, looked at Xiao Yilan, and let out a dull buzzing sound, startling the birds, as if mourning. But the tree spirit, which had no life before, seemed to be suddenly stunned, and tried its last strength to crawl towards Xiao Yilan. The standing tree spirit and Li Zheng didn't seem to know why, Li Zheng wanted to step forward to stop him, but he was entangled by the rattan stretched out by the tree spirit on the side.
Li Zheng's first reaction was that the tree spirit was finally going to do it to himself, remembering the situation when the tree spirit broke the iron railing before, he had already imagined the blurred appearance of his own flesh and blood, and hurriedly tried his best to break free, but he soon found that the tree spirit was not malicious, and did not continue to exert force after entangling himself, but watched his companion slowly crawl towards Xiao Yilan. When the originally lifeless tree spirit came into contact with Xiao Yilan's blood, it was as if it had come to life, as if it was sucking the blood on the ground, and its whole body was gradually dyed with blood red, which looked quite weird. Then, the blood-red tree spirit suddenly reached out and pressed on the wound on Xiao Yilan's chest, and a somewhat demonic blue and red light flashed on his body.
Li Zheng was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth: the blood on the blood-red tree spirit flowed into Xiao Yilan's wound like a stream of water, and with this process, the light on his own body gradually dimmed, and the blood gradually faded, revealing the original twisted appearance of the tree trunk, but his body became more and more dry, like air-dried firewood.
In the end, the wound on Xiao Yilan's chest was actually covered with a touch of pale green, in which the green thin lines crisscrossed like veins, as if a green patch had been applied, while the body of the tree spirit seemed to burn and gradually turned into ashes. Li Zheng's heart jumped, and the ashes turned into the body of the tree spirit scattered with the wind, revealing a dark ink-colored round thing under the ashes, which was very similar to Xiao Yilan's previous jade bead, but it did not have the faint luster of the previous jade bead, and the color was dark, like a dead thing.
The tree spirit beside Li Zheng knelt on one knee and reached out to pick up the orb. It roared again, but in a much quieter voice, as if it were whispering. Li Zheng was suddenly shocked and the whole person was in a trance, stunned in place for a while, in a pool of blood, Xiao Yilan was still lying quietly, the blue light on his body rose and fell with his breathing, and beside him was the bead that looked like stone and jade.
Liu Feng ran a long distance before stopping, taking a breath a little, the movement speed of the tree spirit was not fast, Liu Feng recalled the clumsy appearance of the tree spirit, and thought that he couldn't catch up, so he relaxed a little. Meng Laosan mentioned before that it would take him more than half a day to ride a horse from the town, and he didn't expect to take a horse when he escaped, which made him regret it now.
He pondered where to go next. He failed the task given by the above, and the team of ten people was the only one who lived alone, and his hands were empty, and even the weapon given by the top was dismantled to pieces by the dryad. He shuddered unconsciously, thinking that most of his life back would be difficult, so he had to find another way out by himself.
Suddenly, Liu Feng realized that something was wrong. He didn't feel that the wind was too strong, but the leaves in the trees were fluttering, and before he knew it, there were many more fallen leaves than before. Liu Feng held his breath and listened carefully, but he found nothing but the whirring of the breeze through the trees and his heavy snort.
Like the wind blowing, Liu Feng smelled a faint aroma, and then, he suddenly covered his throat, wanting to make a sound, but there was only a strong wheezing sound, unable to speak, and blood bubbles appeared in his mouth. Blood flowed from between his fingers, and he fell to his knees.
A dark figure appeared in front of him, standing silently in front of him. Liu Feng recognized it, pointed to the figure in front of him, looked horrified, and tried to say something.
The dark shadow slowly walked out of his field of vision and disappeared into the jungle. Liu Feng finally lay on the ground, this was his last consciousness. Then, his pupils dilated, and he lost the last of his life.
