The remnant sun in the distance gradually set down the mountain, and a forest appeared beside the road ahead. Xiao Rui's mind appeared again when he and his sister went to Baita City for the first time and returned, passing by a wood, and encountering a green wolf.

It was that encounter with the green wolf that made Xiao Rui truly activate the magic knife, and his body began to change, so that he had the current realm.

Xiao Rui walked into the woods unconsciously, and the sky had begun to get a little dark, but Xiao Rui could still clearly see everything around him.

The woods are not very large, and they are on the side of the road, so there are no wild animals here. Of course, even if there is, it will not be taken into the eyes of Xiao Rui.

Looking at this slightly familiar environment, Xiao Rui felt a surge of heat in his heart. Seeing that it was getting late outside, he found a clean place to sit down and practiced.

In fact, cultivating in the wild is not new to Xiao Rui at all. When he had just left home, he had entered the deep mountains to cultivate alone.

Although he was accompanied by Daozun at that time, Daozun was only a wisp of divine consciousness at that time, and he only existed in Xiao Rui's sea of consciousness.

Later, in the constant rush, whether it was going to the battlefield or tracking Song Defei, Xiao Rui had the experience of cultivating in the wild, after all, he was not a pampered rich child.

Xiao Rui's cultivation this time, one is to digest and absorb the energy of the middle-aged man who was killed in the General's Mansion in the afternoon. On the other hand, he also planned to sort out some of the information he had obtained from the general's knowledge.

Because Xiao Rui felt that after he came to this level, if he didn't have a good cultivation method. But it's really a waste of such a strong heaven and earth qi.

But when Xiao Rui finished absorbing the man's energy, he was just about to sort out the information he got from the general, when he suddenly heard a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the woods. The footsteps were a little heavy. There was also the sound of rapid breathing.

Hearing this voice, Xiao Rui immediately judged that someone had entered the woods. But from the voice, it can be heard that this person's cultivation is not high, but slightly stronger than ordinary people.

Such a person naturally does not pose a threat to Xiao Rui. But Xiao Rui is not like being influenced by others when he was cultivating himself. So he reined in his mind. Look what happens when this person comes in.

The footsteps stopped more than ten meters away from Xiao Rui, and then a "poof" sound was heard, as if something had fallen to the ground.

Xiao Rui released his senses. Slowly approaching the neighborhood. It was found that it was a man wearing a black tights, and although his face was covered with a black cloth, he could still tell from his figure that it was a man.

At the man's feet, there was a long cloth bag. The sack was pierced. But it seems to be a person inside.

The man in black first looked around. Convinced that there was no one around, he bent down to untie the sack, and then pulled down, revealing the person inside.

It was a woman in the sack. Looking at his age, he is in his early twenties, with delicate skin and beautiful appearance. Judging from the dress, it seems that the family is well-off. Only then the woman's eyes were closed. It seems to have passed out in a coma.

The man in black dragged the woman out of the cloth bag and lay her flat on the ground. His eyes were fixed on the woman. got up and circled around the woman a few times.

Xiao Rui could feel that when the man in black was spinning in circles, his heartbeat began to speed up, and his breathing became rapid. His hands clenched and loosened, and then clenched again, apparently in a very nervous mood.

After a few laps, the man finally stopped and stood beside the woman. Slowly crouched down, his hands trembling towards the woman's chest.

When he slowly unbuttoned the woman's clothes and lifted the woman's clothes open, revealing the delicate white skin inside, his breathing became even more rapid.

Suddenly, with both hands, the man violently tore the woman's coat open, and removed the dirty garment from the woman's chest. Immediately, a pair of white and trembling jade rabbits were exposed.

Although it was night at this time, the woman's pale skin showed a hazy halo against the backdrop of the night.

When the man saw this, he seemed to stop breathing. He took off the mask on his face and lowered his head to kiss the pair of trembling jade rabbits.

At this moment, there was a sudden piercing whistling sound in the distance, and it was only a matter of a moment from the appearance of the whistle to the man's side.

Xiao Rui didn't move, because he had already felt another person in the distance when the man was circling around the woman. But that person's attention was not on Xiao Rui, so Xiao Rui naturally wouldn't disturb him.

Now hearing this whistling, Xiao Rui's heart moved, because he knew that it was just a branch that the man in the distance casually broke off, and then popped it out with his finger and shot at the man in black.

The branch is small, but it is extremely fast. The reason why it can make such a piercing whistling sound is because it is too fast, moving in the air, and the sound of friction air currents.

The moment the man heard the whistle, there was a hint of horror in his eyes, and without looking, he rolled to the side, avoiding the branch.

After dodging the branches, the man rolled behind a tree, then stood up and fled into the distance without looking back. It seems that he was so jealous of the man who sent out the branches that he did not even dare to look at his face.

No sooner had the man left than the man in the distance had already appeared beside the woman. Xiao Rui found that the man was wearing a gray robe with a ribbon tied around his waist. A black hair was tied around the top of his head and pinned with a hairpin. The face is fresh, and there is a black beard under the chin. Look at the age is in his thirties.

After this person came, he didn't even look at the woman on the ground, but with a wave of his hand, the cloth bag on the side had already fallen on the woman's body, covering the delicate body that made the blood rush out.

At this time, the gray-robed man lowered his head, looked at the woman, held the woman's wrist with his right hand, paused slightly, and clicked a few times on the woman's body with his left hand.

The woman's body shook, she groaned, and woke up quietly. But when he opened his eyes and saw his surroundings clearly, he looked down at the cloth bag on his body, and he cried out in fright.

The gray-robed man had already stood up at this time, his right hand was erected in front of his chest, and his left hand was taken out of nowhere to whisk the dust, and he gently shook it and whispered: "Immeasurable Tianzun, girl, that lewd thief has been beaten away by the poor road. And the girl was not humiliated, so she got dressed and went home quickly!"

After listening to the gray-robed man's words, the woman stretched out her hand to tie her clothes under the cloth bag, and then stood up tremblingly, bowed down and said to the gray-robed man: "The little woman thanks the Taoist for his great kindness! It's just that it's so dark this day, and the little woman doesn't know where she is, how to get home!"

The answer between the two couldn't help but make Xiao Rui feel a little confused. Because he didn't know who this gray-robed man was, and Xiao Rui had never seen him dressed like this before.

The gray-robed man called himself "Poor Dao", but the woman called him "Dao Chief", it seems that the identity or name of this gray-robed man must be related to the word "Dao".

The gray-robed man whispered a sentence "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" After speaking, he turned his back, squatted slightly, lowered his body and said, "Then the poor road will send you back!"

The woman's face was slightly surprised, but then she showed a hint of joy and said, "That's really a long way to work!" and climbed onto the back of the gray-robed man.

The gray-robed man picked up the woman on his back, stood up straight, looked around, and then chose a direction and walked forward quickly. Xiao Rui found that the direction he was walking was the same direction in which the man in black came, and it was also the direction in which the man in black fled.

Xiao Rui suddenly felt a little strange at this time, and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it for a while. So he expanded the scope of his divine consciousness and continued to observe the whereabouts of these two people.

Just when Xiao Rui's divine sense had just expanded to the edge of the woods, he suddenly discovered that this person was hidden here. If you look closely, it is the man in black who has just fled in a panic.

He hid it very well this time, if it weren't for Xiao Rui's use of his divine sense to probe and feel his aura, it would not be easy to find.

He hid quietly in a tree pit, covered with a pile of leaves. His eyes were slightly open, revealing only a slit, as if he was afraid that the light in his eyes would be discovered.

In his hand he held a crossbow, a shiny black bolt in the crossbow trough. The tip of the arrow also shone with a faint blue light, which was obviously quenched poison.

Xiao Rui didn't understand why the man in black had fled so quickly just now, but why he was hiding here now. Could it be that he still wanted to wait for the gray-robed man to leave, and then continue to do that kind of cruel thing to the woman?

In fact, when he first saw the woman in the cloth bag, Xiao Rui already understood that this must be a thief stealing incense and jade. He didn't make a move because he found the gray-robed man.

When the gray-robed man made a decisive move, Xiao Rui naturally had no need to make a move. And he let go of the man in black at that time, not like letting the man in gray robe find out.

It's not that he's afraid of anything, it's just that he doesn't want to get into trouble. And the gray-robed man can't be a threat to him yet, but with Xiao Rui's current realm, of course, more is better than less. What's more, I have just come to this level, and I still don't know a lot of things.

But now that he saw this man in black again, Xiao Rui didn't want to let him go anymore. After all, this is a thief, a scum in society, and it is impossible for Xiao Rui to keep him and continue to do evil.

However, the gray-robed man was about to walk to the edge of the woods with the woman on his back, and Xiao Rui planned to wait for them to leave before dealing with the thief.

However, at this moment, a scene happened that Xiao Rui couldn't imagine! The woman lying on the back of the gray-robed man, when the two passed the tree pit where the black-robed man was hiding, the hands that were originally holding the gray-robed man's shoulders actually stretched forward violently, and then quickly leaned back, tightly strangling the gray-robed man's neck.

Her two slender thighs also tightly wrapped around the legs of the gray-robed man, like an eight-clawed octopus, tightly clamping the gray-robed man who was carrying her!

At this moment, the black-clothed man hiding in the tree pit moved, and the crossbow arrows in the crossbow also shot out like lightning, heading straight for the chest of the gray-robed man! (To be continued......
