Four Spirit Scroll Chapter 207 Thief's Lair
The three of them came to the depths of the dense forest, and after climbing a long hillside, there were rows of houses made of wood, stone and thatch, which were simple and rough, arranged in a disorderly manner, and many of them had torches outside them, and they walked all the way from the outside, and there were people along the road, either sitting by the fire, or poking their heads out of the houses, dressed like the gang of bandits before, and the eyes of the three of them were not kind.
Gu Wanyi ignored it and walked up and down. On the other side of the group of buildings is a ruined temple, apparently long deserted, with grass breaking through the surrounding walls, but it is much better than the other shabby things that are barely called "houses".
Before entering the door, Xiao Qi heard a familiar voice again: "Oh, I'm not wrong!"
Xiao Qi turned his head to see that Luo Xiaoyu was still thin and thin, but he had grown a lot taller, and the injuries on his body seemed to have healed, and he was more energetic than when he saw him in Shajiang City a few months ago.
"What are you kid doing here?" Gu Wanyi said with a sideways glance.
"I heard that Sister Gu sneaked out again, I'm not worried about Sister Gu, I came out to take a look, I didn't expect to run into our Brother Xiao again!" Luo Xiaoyu still had a smooth tongue as always, which made Xiao Qi have a familiar feeling, and he unconsciously showed a shallow smile.
"Long time no see. Xiao Qi nodded slightly.
Gu Wanyi interrupted the two impatiently, glared at Luo Xiaoyu, and scolded: "Hurry up, go back to sleep, we still have important things!"
Luo Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he simply didn't leave: "Then I can't go, let's escape all the way, I'm a member of this group anyway, of course I have to participate in what you discuss!"
Gu Wanyi was still glaring at him, and was about to continue to drive him away, when Xiao Qi suddenly took two steps forward and squatted down, putting down Zuo Yunyi behind him.
"I just need your help. This friend of mine is injured a bit, and I would like you to help her find a quiet place to recuperate. Xiao Qi helped Zuo Yunyi to stand up reluctantly.
Zuo Yunyi was stunned, she frowned, and looked at Xiao Qi: "Are you relieved to hand me over to them like this?"
"Are you still afraid of being eaten by him?" Xiao Qi asked rhetorically.
Zuo Yunyi was speechless, but Luo Xiaoyu patted his chest and said, "Okay, give you a face, give it to me, and repay the meals you invited me to the beginning." ”
He turned his head to look at Zuo Yunyi, bared his teeth and grinned: "Don't worry, I don't eat people!"
Zuo Yunyi glared at Xiao Qi viciously, and then at Luo Xiaoyu, as if he didn't want Xiao Qi to look down on him, and then slowly stretched out his hand to support Luo Xiaoyu's shoulder. Although she is much older than Luo Xiaoyu, she was born petite, and she happens to be about the same height as Luo Xiaoyu. She didn't expect Luo Xiaoyu to carry herself as easily as Xiao Qi, so she had to move forward little by little with him as a support point, moving slowly so as not to pull the wound.
"Find a safe place. Xiao Qi looked at the bandits who looked over from time to time outside, and whispered.
Luo Xiaoyu understood and said with a smile: "Leave it to me, you can rest assured." ”
Xiao Qi looked at Zuo Yunyi and Luo Xiaoyu who were slowly moving away, and then walked towards the broken temple, but was stopped by Gu Wanyi.
"Over here. She pointed in the other direction. From the gate of the broken temple to the east, there was a dense forest of black pressure, and Gu Wanyi couldn't help but walk in that direction.
In the gloomy night, Gu Wanyi moved forward with a familiar way, and turned back to Xiao Chu from time to time and said: "The broken temple just now, as well as the surrounding broken houses, was originally the old nest of the bandit leader here, but then it was occupied by us, there are several abandoned wings behind the broken temple, which should have been the place where the monks in the temple lived, we temporarily settled there, Luo Xiaoyu's kid should have also brought your friend over." ”
"So where is this going now?"
"At this hour, Brother Sheng should not be at the residence. Ever since he was able to move, he would pull Brother Mu here to practice every night, and he would not finish until he was soaked with sweat. He may have felt that it was his responsibility as the captain of the guard that Shizuma had fallen to this point. Gu Wanyi turned her back to Xiao Chu, walking in front of her, Xiao Chu couldn't see her face, but listening to Gu Wanyi's voice, she was faintly like a sigh.
Xiao Yu was silent. While the two were talking, they had already gone deep into the jungle, and following the direction that Gu Wanyi was facing, there was a piece of land covered with tree stumps among the trees, and Xiao Chu could already see two figures in front of him, one of whom had a pair of white feathers that was particularly conspicuous in the night.
The white feathers that were as white as jade in the past, which were no different from Gu Wanyi, now look dull in color because of the marks left by scars and scabs, and the luster of the feathers is far from what it used to be.
Zhang Sheng held the dark blue gun in his hand, spread his wings or advance like the wind, or move sideways like a ghost, the little golden mango on the tip of the gun danced like a poisonous snake, and the sharp fangs all greeted Mu Changsheng. Mu Changsheng still held a sword in one hand, a scabbard in the other, and wielded it freely with both hands, forming a silver barrier in front of him, blocking all the golden light from the outside.
Zhang Sheng's offensive was sharp and crisp, more decisive and stronger than when he fought Xiao Chu in the Qing Shui Room. Although Mu Changsheng was completely on the defensive, he also began to struggle, using his two-handed swords vigorously, and the battle intent in his eyes became more and more vigorous. These days, he really hasn't slackened.
"Brother Sheng, look who I've brought back!" Gu Wanyi waved her hand and shouted to the two fast-moving figures.
The two of them didn't even look at it, and the sound of guns and swords clashing was endless. Gu Wanyi seemed to be used to this situation, and she was not in a hurry, so she found a clean place to sit down and watched the fight between the two.
Finally, the golden mangs drawn by the golden poison rose in Zhang Sheng's hand like a huge net, enveloping Mu Changsheng and sealing all his retreats. Xiao Chu recognized that this was a patchwork of Shen Yan's shots,
In this short period of time, he actually performed six moves one after another, which Xiao Yu was ashamed of.
Mu Changsheng's face turned red for some reason, he took two steps back, found that there was no way to retreat, and finally roared angrily, the sword and the sheath crossed in front of him, and collided with the golden giant net. The huge net built by Zhang Sheng collapsed immediately, Mu Changsheng's sword chased after his front door, Zhang Sheng suddenly flapped his wings, and at the same time, the spear flipped in his hand, and the blade of the sword was opened, and then the whole person drifted backwards like a few steps before landing steadily.
Mu Changsheng was obviously very excited: "Your kid has made a lot of progress, I haven't played so happily for a long time! ”
Zhang Sheng smiled and nodded: "Today, I can force Brother Mu to go all out of his sword, and Zhang is not in vain in the sweat of these days." After speaking, he looked at Gu Wanyi. Xiao Chu suddenly felt a sharp eagle-like gaze coming straight in. The eyesight of the Yi people is outstanding, and even in the night, Zhang Sheng recognized Xiao Yu at a glance.
"Brother Xiao!" he was so excited that he spread his wings and flew in. Although Mu Changsheng couldn't see the person who was coming, he could hear Zhang Sheng's words clearly, and before he could recover from the joy of the battle, he raised his sword and rushed to this side.
Xiao Chu didn't expect such a big reaction from these two people, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he only waved his hand awkwardly.
When Mu Changsheng was still dozens of steps away, Zhang Sheng had already fallen in front of Xiao Yu. He put the golden poison on the ground, clasped his hands into fists, and then bowed down and said, "I haven't thanked Brother Xiao for his kindness to the Wing Clan!"
Xiao Yu hurriedly supported him, "Brother Zhang is polite. ”
After Zhang Sheng solemnly finished saluting, he raised his head and saw Gu Wanyi, who was proudly looking at Gu Wanyi on the side, and quipped. "You go out to have a good time, just don't get into trouble, how can you still meet Brother Xiao?"
"Brother Nasheng is underestimating me, I don't know it's going to get into trouble...... No, I haven't had many troubles......" Gu Wanyi said with a smile.
Zhang Sheng shook his head with a smile and turned his head to face Xiao Chu: "How could Brother Xiao be here?"
"Passing by here, I met a group of bandits, but I didn't expect that behind them was Brother Zhang and everyone. Xiao Chu knew very well that he had no deep friendship with Zhang Sheng, and because of Gu Wanyi, he should have a reason to dislike and reject him. But looking at that elegant face and clear eyes, Xiao Chu really couldn't hate it.
"Haha, it's a long story, it's stormy at night here, let's go back and talk about it. ”
At this time, Mu Changsheng also approached, and Xiao Chu nodded and greeted, "Brother Mu." ”
Mu Changsheng patted Xiao Chu's shoulder heroically and said, "Sure enough, our fate is not over!
Another person asked about Liu Qingxue, and Xiao Chu had to answer honestly: "No, I encountered something in Shajiang City that day, and I didn't have time to meet Miss Liu." ”
"Oh, alas, I want to see how you've grown these days. Mu Changsheng shook his head regretfully. It turned out that what he was thinking about was to have a discussion, and Xiao Chu couldn't help but be embarrassed about this reason.
"Brother Mu, now you can't beat Brother Xiao! His ability has improved by leaps and bounds, and even Sister Meng is willing to bow down. Gu Wanyi sowed discord with a hippie smile.
"Oh?" Mu Changsheng suddenly became interested, "Miss Meng is not an opponent, Brother Xiao wants me to see and understand!" As he spoke, Emperor Jian's heart was unsheathed again.
"Oh, no hurry, no hurry. Zhang Sheng waved his hand helplessly, "How can there be a guest who will do it as soon as he comes, Brother Mu wants to learn, and he will talk about it tomorrow." Brother Mu had just fought fiercely with Zhang for a long time, and he was going to challenge Brother Xiao, did he think that Zhang was not enough to see, or did he think that Brother Xiao was just that?"
"Reasonable. Hearing this, Mu Changsheng nodded approvingly, and put his sword into the sheath. Xiao Chu couldn't help but look at Zhang Sheng twice. He has a way to cure a martial idiot like Mu Changsheng, and he is indeed unique as a leader. Although he wanted to tell them that he couldn't stay for a long time and that there were people chasing and killing behind him, he didn't want to sweep Mu Changsheng's excitement at this moment, so he had to follow them back.
Everyone walked to the broken temple, Gu Wanyi kept pestering Zhang Sheng along the way, and Zhang Sheng didn't have much opportunity to chat with Xiao Chu, and Xiao Chu was also happy to be idle. When everyone returned to the ruined temple, they walked into the ruined temple under the gaze of a fierce and vicious guy outside.
After entering the door, the first thing Zhang Sheng did was to close the door of the broken temple and block it with a latch. Seeing Xiao Chu's gaze, he showed a wry smile and said, "Being in the tiger's den, I have to do this." ”
Then they introduced Xiao Chu into the inside of the ruined temple, where the compartment was connected to the wing room behind the ruined temple, and could be reached directly through the inside of the ruined temple.
"Those thieves always thought that we were sleeping in a ruined temple, but they didn't know that we had secretly connected it to the back rooms, which was an extra way back. Zhang Sheng explained.
Xiao Chu had to admire Zhang Sheng's thoughtfulness, with a team dominated by teenagers who were not familiar with the world, and in such a dangerous environment, it really took a lot of thought.
"Brother Xiao will stay here for one night first, it's a little simpler, but that's the only way to do it here, Brother Xiao will take care of it. We'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
Xiao Qi thought that Zhang Sheng had something important to talk about, but he didn't expect that he would even arrange his own accommodation.
"No, I still have some things, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for long. ”
Zhang Sheng was stunned, nodded, and stopped the work of cleaning up the sundries.
On the contrary, Gu Wanyi couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "What else do you have to do?
"Wanyi!" Zhang Sheng whispered, and Gu Wanyi stopped talking, but she was still angry.
Xiao Qi didn't want to involve them in this matter, but for some reason, Xu is Zhang Sheng's enthusiasm made him a little confused, and at this moment he suddenly wanted to see how Zhang Sheng and Gu Wanyi reacted when they heard about it. So he said lightly: "Actually, it's not a secret, but now, I'm being hunted down by two huge forces, and I've been staying for a long time, I'm afraid it will affect you." ”
