Chapter 166: Turning
In this cloudy swamp, you can never tell the difference between morning, noon and evening based on the sky.
I don't know how long I've been grieving. When Liudao buried the red rope on a high hill, he turned around and walked towards Yunchen, his sad face had disappeared between these turns, and the signature generous smile that gradually appeared could not hide the extremely sad and bleak look in his eyes.
Facing the six paths that came to him, Yunchen lowered his head in shame.
"It's okay!" Liudao patted Yunchen's shoulder hard, which showed that the disguised smile on his face only made Yunchen feel better. "I've always been brother and sister with the red rope, at least I've always thought so, in fact, she's younger than me, more like my sister, and she told me just now that she always hoped that the red rope on her wrist would one day connect me to her heart. ”
"Hehe..."Liudao smiled but had already shed tears, "This stupid girl, why didn't you say it until now, why didn't you say it before." ”
Yunchen was still silent, he thought that the relationship between the six paths and the red rope, just like he and Yun Jing, had already been said, but he didn't expect that they were still separated by a layer of window paper between them, and a red rope was secretly lovesick, but when it was clear, it was already separated by yin and yang.
"I don't care what heinous tricks you have, I won't ask you where you will take us, I only pray for one thing in this life, give me a chance to kill Yutai Yongjun... Hehe... A few days ago, I was drinking with him with the red rope, but I didn't expect him to die in the blink of an eye, I can't play him with my conceit and bravery, but I know, you can. ”
Yunchen held up a finger, "One year," Yunchen looked at Liudao and said, "Within a year, I will throw him like a sheep in front of the grave of the red rope and let you dispose of it." ”
Liudao turned his head sideways, looking at the grave on the hill in the distance, and a touch of belated love accompanied by sadness loomed in his eyes.
Huang Pujin walked up to Yun Chen, if he didn't know how powerful Yun Chen was before, then today he knew, unlike others who only saw the results, he was the only one here who had seen all the processes from beginning to end, so he walked in front of Yun Chen again, he put away his cynicism, with a touch of caution, and hesitated: "The number of people has been counted, we still have five hundred and thirty people, and one third of them have been injured to varying degrees." ”
Yunchen nodded, but at this moment, his head was so heavy that he couldn't raise his head anymore, that is to say, this time alone, they lost almost three hundred people, and Yunchen looked at the dark red pools around him again, which were all stained red with their blood.
"Next, we... What should I do?"
"Whether it's forward or backward, we've all been exposed, and it makes no difference to the Sword Witch who can ride the Optimus Crane to chase after us. Yunchen said, looking to the south, where the hills are denser, where there are more trees, and farther away, there seem to be mountain shadows in the clouds and mist.
"I like a road to the dark, but this is not the only way to the end, so," Yunchen pointed his hand to the south, and more than 500 people put away their sad moods, supported each other, and hit the road again.
...... Moyangzhai is located at the intersection of the swamp in the northwest of Heze and the remaining veins of Baiqi Mountain, where because of the fertile land and luscious spring water, it has always been the largest elixir production area in the entire Heze area, from the Xuan level to the prefecture level, and even the Tianji elixir, there are artificial cultivation here.
Compared with other areas of Heze that have been repeatedly suppressed by sword cultivation, because of the remote location here, and the road ahead is full of snakes, pythons, venomous crocodiles and miasma, the sword cultivation of the brigade can't go here at all, and the manpower has been exhausted on the road, and those who can get here are all disciples of the Divine Sect who ride dragons and cranes and steal elixirs.
Therefore, Moyang Village has more than 40 Optimus Cranes, the purpose is to expel or intercept the disciples of the Divine Sect who steal the elixir, and in the entire Heze area, Moyang Zhai has the number of Optimus Cranes, second only to the most powerful Wuyang Village.
On the highest wooden platform in Moyang Village, there stood a woman with outstanding demeanor in the wind, she was dressed in leather armor and did not wear a black robe like other sword witches, the simple animal skin armor exposed a large area of snow-white skin on the chest, and the deep cleavage that hooked the eyes of countless men, the knee-length long leather skirt opened up from the thigh to a thrilling height, revealing the plump and luxurious thighs, the delicate face was slightly dark, and was not painted with all kinds of strange oil paint, but a fiery red scorpion was tattooed on the right forehead, and the terrifying sting tail was outlined to the intoxicating dimple on the side of the face, adding a touch of evil to her beauty。
She is the master of Moyang Village, the first of the Fazun.
Chu Yu had only been at peace since a pair of Optimus Cranes went to chase two disciples of the Divine Sect who were riding dragon cranes in vain to steal elixirs this morning, which was a very abnormal thing for a sword witch with profound strength and refined divine thoughts.
It wasn't until noon, listening to the sound of cranes chirping in the distance, Chu Yu's hanging heart was put down, she didn't worry about the life and death of the sword witch, the sword witch died and could go to the fog to recruit, but the crane died, so she had to spend a lot of financial resources to buy it in Yunze, it can be said that these more than forty cranes, in the land of Sanze, which is full of crises, are the biggest wealth in the entire Moyang Village.
But soon, Chu Yu's heart that had just fallen was raised again, because she heard a wail in this burst of crane chirps, and then she saw that the Qingtian Crane that should have flown back in the shape of Chengren flew back like a flight in a chaotic manner.
After a while, after seeing that the white feathers of the leader of the Optimus Crane were half dyed red, Chu Yu's face was already gloomy, and when she found that there was one Optimus Crane missing, she twitched the corners of her mouth to make the scorpion tail on the side of her face tremble, and it looked like she was about to sting people.
Fifteen sword witches, five came back, and a crane died, Chu Yu didn't ask what happened, but asked, "Who did it, and where is it." ”
"We found a group of sword cultivators more than a hundred miles away, probably more than a thousand people, so..."
"How is it possible, we all know the level of sword cultivation on duty, how can it be possible to come here, and how can they attack and kill you in the air. As soon as Chu Yu became angry, the five sword witches knelt on the ground neatly, and the sword witch who spoke up before explained: "There is only one person who defeated us..."
"Fart, even a sword venerable can't fly that high. Chu Yu kicked down this sword witch, so that the second half of the sword witch "and a white cat" didn't dare to say it.
After Chu Yu whistled, one by one the Optimus Cranes flew out of the huge wooden attic next to them, carrying the Sword Witch who had already heard the news and climbed the high platform, Chu Yu personally led the Sword Witch to ride forty-three Optimus Cranes, poured out, and flew towards the southeast, she was going to find the one, and one person defeated her fifteen Optimus Cranes Sword Cultivator.
...
When Yunchen led the people to the southern mountain forest and wetland, it was already raining, in fact, the most weather in the jungle swamp was rain, the rain suppressed the miasma everywhere, brought a trace of fresh air, and covered up all traces left in their path.
The hills here are no longer a few hundred meters away, but one at intervals of a few meters, and the giant banyan tree is gradually thinning out and replaced by another taller and denser tree called the dark pine, and the fine rainwater penetrates the gaps in the branches and leaves into silk threads, dripping on the faces of the people, like a lost dog.
After going deep into the mountains and swamps for several miles, Yunchen motioned for everyone to rest for a while.
The miasma in the neon dress was obviously relieved a lot after taking the medicine, but the blow of losing her relatives made her no longer vibrant, and with Yun Jing's support, she walked to Yun Chen's side and said with a crying voice: "I'm sorry, it's all because of me..."
"How can it be because of you? Yutai Yongjun, the turtle king with a shrunken head, is not afraid of letting the sword witch kill you even if he turns his face and doesn't recognize people?" Yun Jing said angrily.
Nishang shook his head, "You don't understand, as long as my life is in danger, Da Ling'er will definitely take me to escape, with Da Ling'er's speed, the Optimus Crane can't catch up in a short time, Da Ling'er doesn't take long every time he transforms, but it can run dozens of miles away in one breath, and the swamp here can't affect its speed at all, Yutai Yongjun knows this, so, as long as he wants, he has enough time to take me away." ”
"Then why didn't Da Ling'er take you away just now?" Yun Jing asked, "Because it knows that I won't go alone." Nishang said and looked at Yunchen, she felt that what Yunchen said was right, she was a disaster.
"Do you know why I know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains?" Yunchen suddenly asked.
"Didn't you say that there are swords and witches somewhere? Yun Jing replied.
Yunchen nodded, and immediately shook his head, "This is just one of them, and there is another point that I haven't said." Yunchen stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, "When I knew about the existence of a dragon crane at Kaiyang Pass, I expected that no matter where we went, Yutai Yongjun would definitely stare at us from high in the sky, and then attract the sword witch." ”
Yun Jing Nishang stopped talking, indeed, they couldn't see the sky on the ground, it didn't mean that the disciples of the Divine Sect riding the dragon crane couldn't see them in the sky, and Yun Chen was right, as long as Lantai Yongjun had a heart, no matter where they went, as long as they were still in Heze, Tangtai Yongjun could use the convenience of the dragon crane to attract the sword witch to deal with them.
"Why do you have to go here, it's so dangerous here. Nishang muttered.
"What's the matter, it's so exciting here. Yun Jing, who was astonishingly bold, retorted, defending any decision of Yunchen other than to drive her away.
"Because I know that Tantai Yongjun will definitely arrange a strong enemy for me, and a strong enemy is also his enemy, he wants to kill me with the help of a strong enemy, and I want to get rid of his tracking with the help of a strong enemy, that's all. Yunchen finally said the reason why he had hidden it in his heart and had been difficult to say, to put it bluntly, this was his grudge with Yutai Yongjun, but so many people were affected by him, but could he say it? If he didn't say it, so many people would follow him, and if he said it, these people around him would follow him even more. Whether it is Huangpujin Liudao or Yunrong, they will not ignore Yunchen.
Any attempt has to pay a price, for everything Heze, Yunchen, who opened his eyes and felt black, broke in like this, they just had a small harvest, but they paid the price of letting the red rope Yuntao sacrifice, who else will sacrifice in the future? Yunchen didn't know, but he had already prepared for any price, even himself, but he didn't expect that this price made him so painful.
Liudao on the side suddenly raised his hand to signal everyone to silence, he closed his eyes and listened for a while, before he could speak, Yunchen also heard it, in the continuous rain, there was a faint sound of cranes, this is someone riding a crane at a low altitude to search for their traces.
Yunchen grabbed the white cat who was sleeping in Ni Shang's arms, and the first thing the white cat saw when he woke up was Yun Chen's bloodshot gloomy eyes, and he immediately became energetic, Yun Chen pointed to the southeast, and after making a gesture, he pointed to the south, "Where to hide until it gets dark and then come back, don't say you can't find Ni Shang." ”
The white cat immediately understood, and did not move, and ran towards the southeast at an inversely proportional speed of its petite body.
The sword witches who came after him also suffered a lot on a rainy day, and after searching the place where the fierce battle just now was fruitless, they began to scatter and lower their altitude to search in the southeast direction, and they took it for granted that any team would immediately retract after being hit so hard.
"Where..."A sword witch suddenly saw a huge white cat running out of the mountain forest swamp in the distance, this is the only useful information that the five sword witches who survived brought back to them, it is said that this white cat can not only make the crane dozens of meters high shudder, but also send people to the sky.
The white cat faithfully carried out Yunchen's arrangement, and after being ten miles away from Yunchen and they transformed and appeared to attract the attention of the sword witch searching in the sky, he immediately turned back to the forest and ran straight towards the south, its huge body and the white hair that could isolate filth, even if it ran in the dense swampy jungle, from a high altitude, it didn't believe that it was dazzling.
The sound of cranes chirping one after another, attracting more cranes around them, chasing them in the direction of the white cat's escape.
Yunchen and more than 500 other people hidden in the forest looked at the optimus cranes flying low in the air from time to time, holding their breath and not even daring to make a sound, while Yun Jing was counting how many optimus cranes were chasing them with his fingers.
As the sound of the crane chirped away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "There are thirty-two Optimus Cranes in total," Yun Jing said as she leaned over to Yun Chen's side.
"I'm afraid it's not enough, some of the cranes have already flown far to the southeast. Liudao said.
And Yun Jing obviously didn't really want to know how many Optimus Cranes there were in the Sword Witch, what she was concerned about was that with so many Optimus Cranes showing off their might in the air, could Yun Chen get her one to play?
Yun Jing is a person who can't hide her thoughts, and she has been hiding this thought for a long time, "Brother Xinchen" Yun Jing shook Yun Chen's arm, and before she could say her thoughts, Yun Chen glanced at Yun Jing, "Don't even think about it, unless I'm dizzy." ”
Yun Jing opened her mouth, and sure enough, without saying it, Yun Chen had already seen the thoughts she had hidden in her intestines.
"What now?" Huang Pujin walked to Yun Chen's side lightly and asked in a low voice, "Before I came, many people said how cunning the Sword Witch is, so let's not act rashly. Yunchen said and looked behind him, listening to Liudao, who had been listening to the movement in the air, "When you think you can go, tell me." ”
Liudao understands the meaning of Yunchen, the level of a person's mind determines the amount of Yuan Force in the body, and at the same time affects one's own vision and hearing, to put it simply, the deeper the strength, the farther you see, the clearer you can hear, and here, the strength of Liudao is undoubtedly the deepest, Yunchen please him, it is also a matter of course.
He didn't speak or make any fearless movements, silently licking the wounds on his body or in his heart in the rain.
It wasn't until it was getting dark that five more cranes flew over their heads.
Liudao nodded to Yunchen at this time, indicating that there should be no Qingtian Crane nearby.
Yunchen shook his head, "If the Sword Witch only has this kind of brain, it can only be said that they are resourceful, not cunning." ”
About a quarter of an hour later, five more cranes flew over their heads from north to south, and everyone shouted in their hearts that they were glad to have listened to Yunchen's words. At this point, Huang Pujin finally knew why Pope Pu Xiong said again and again that Yun Chen was the most suitable person to survive in Heze, and secretly assigned most of the elite disciples of the Nanli Sect to his leadership, following Yun Chen, Huang Pu Jin thought that compared to the cunning sword witch, Yun Chen was a cunning and cunning person.
Yun Jing looked at Yun Chen with a look of adoration, she thought that the deceitful person was a little more powerful than the cunning person, such as her Xinchen brother, who was the deceitful one, and this deceived the cunning sword witch.
As soon as the five Optimus Cranes were far away, Yunchen immediately got up from the thorns he was hiding, "Don't make a sound, try to move as gently as possible, it's okay to walk slowly, let's find a better place to hide, it is estimated that we will have to spend a few days with this group of sword witches." ”
Not long after Yunchen and the others left, the chasing sword witch found out that he had been fooled, and immediately turned around and unleashed fireballs towards the leafy mountain forests and swamps below. Although the fireball was greatly reduced in power on a rainy day, this moment of flash was enough for them to see the scene under the diffraction of fire in the dense forest in the dark night.
This is by no means what Yunchen could have expected, when others cast him admiring glances again, he secretly shouted "luck" in his heart, Yunchen, who never believed in luck, had to believe in luck after coming here.
They trekked all the way through the dense forest and turned to the southwest overnight, but everyone knew that no matter where Yunchen would take them to, they had only one goal, Moyang Village in the northwest, Yunchen was a person who held grudges, and of course those who held grudges wanted to take revenge, it was as simple as that.
