Chapter 339: Cannon Fodder

It seems that there is no danger in this place, everyone inspected the stone hall for a while, and found nothing, so they continued to walk towards the front, after the stone hall, there is an artificially excavated passage in front, which is exactly the same as the passage in front, and it is wide enough to walk several people.

"It's like there's a corpse!" As soon as he walked into the passage, he heard Chen Biwang shouting in front of him.

Everyone hurriedly hurried a few steps forward, and saw a corpse lying on the ground not far from them, judging from the clothes on the body, this corpse seemed to belong to the Tao family, but the whole corpse was thin like a skeleton, and its face had changed shape, and it was impossible to see who it was.

Tao Zhengyou and Tao Yougong looked around the corpse for a long time, but they didn't recognize who it was, but judging from the clothes on his body, this person's status is not high, and it is definitely not Tao Youcheng or Tao Zhengyi's, which made both of them breathe a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Tao Zhengzhi suddenly said in a trembling voice: "He is Tao Zhengli!" ”

"Tao Zhengli? How did you recognize that? Tao Zhengyou asked.

Tao Zhengzhi said: "Tao Zhengli usually befriends me, but before leaving with the head of the family, we were practicing martial arts, and I accidentally pierced a hole in his sleeve. Later, the head of the family urged him to come to Phoenix Mountain together, but he didn't have time to change his clothes, but he never went back. ”

Tao Zhengyou looked at the sleeve of the corpse, and sure enough, there was a hole pierced by a sharp weapon, it seems that Tao Zhengzhi was right, the corpse on the ground was really Tao Zhengli's, and I don't know what danger it encountered, and it became unrecognizable.

Tao Zhengyou said in a deep voice to the corpse on the ground: "Brother Zhengli, I didn't expect you to die in this underground palace, I really wronged you." You wait here, and if we can come back, we will bring your body up and bury it." ”

The Tao family is concerned about whose corpse it is, but others are concerned about how the corpse died, then Lu Feng frowned, thought for a long time, and then said: "There is no obvious trauma on the whole corpse, but all the flesh and blood are lost, only skeletons and a skin are left, the righteous path monk definitely has no such means, could it be that he encountered a ghost monk?" Senior Brother Chen, what do you think? ”

Chen Biwang groaned: "It's hard to say, his current appearance does look like a means of evil ghost cultivation, but it can't be ruled out that he was bitten by some special demon beasts, but the wound is relatively small and the location is relatively secret, we haven't found it." ”

Lu Feng nodded and said: "Then let's look carefully and see what is going on, I always feel that this underground palace is more evil, and if we figure out the cause of his death, everyone can feel at ease." ”

Lu Feng and Chen Biwang lowered their bodies, turned the corpse over with their scabbards, and looked at it carefully, and the others were curious for a while, and they all gathered over here.

At this moment, two black shadows suddenly rushed over from a distance and rushed towards the crowd in the passage, so fast that even the Qi cultivators dared not underestimate them. One of the black shadows pounced on Tao Zhengxin, and the other pounced on Qingyang nearby.

Although the monk's divine mind can detect the danger at the first time, but the coverage of the low-level monk's divine mind is too small, and the speed of the black shadow is fast, and the distance of a few zhang is too late to make any reaction, and Tao Zhengxin just found out that something is wrong, and the black shadow pounced on him, and then before he could scream, he fell to the ground crookedly.

Qingyang's situation is much better, his cultivation is relatively high, plus the strength of his divine thoughts exceeds that of cultivators of the same level, and the coverage is relatively wide, so he discovered that black shadow in the first place. The speed of the black shadow was fast enough, and Qingyang's reaction was not slow, and at the same time as the danger of returning to the danger, he had already sacrificed the green bamboo sword to block in front of him.

Seeing the black shadow rushing towards him, Qingyang took advantage of the situation and slashed the green bamboo sword forward, slashing at the black shadow. I heard a scream from the front, and the black shadow was split in two by the Qingzhu Sword, and a cavity of blood sprayed out, blocked by Qingyang's true qi shield, so it was not sprayed.

At this time, Qingyang saw clearly that the attack on him was actually a bat the size of an adult's head, on the head covered with fluff, a pair of eyes red and scary, as well as sharp teeth exposed outside, and black shiny wings, all of which made people feel weird.

Judging from the breath of the bat, this is an unranked demon beast, and its strength is at least equivalent to the middle stage of the Open Pulse Realm, but the bat is good at flying, extremely fast, and it suddenly attacks in a hidden place, and even Qingyang, who is in the third layer of qi refining, is almost hit.

Qingyang is like this, not to mention Tao Zhengxin, who is only cultivating in the middle of the Open Pulse Realm, not to mention that he has no time to react, even if he has time to react, he is not the opponent of this bat.

Lu Dingshan is not far from Tao Zhengxin, he rushed to the rescue as soon as possible, but unfortunately it was still a step too late, and when he grabbed Tao Zhengxin, Tao Zhengxin had already fallen to the ground, his face was bloodless, and the bat that attacked him was lying on his throat.

Lu Dingshan didn't dare to slack off, and took out the mountain axe and slashed towards the bat. Although the bat was attacking Tao Zhengxin, its reaction was not slow, and it flashed to the side with a squeak, and Lu Dingshan's mountain opening axe only wiped his wings, and did not hurt the substance.

But at this time, everyone else had already reacted, and they all sacrificed their magic weapons to attack the bat. Under the attack of so many people, how could a bat demon beast with only the strength of the Open Pulse Realm be an opponent, and it was nailed to the ground by one of Mi Ling's plum blossom needles in a few clicks.

After solving the two demon beasts, Tao Zhengyi hurriedly took a few steps forward and came to Tao Zhengxin's side, Tao Zhengxin's face on the ground was no longer bloody, and his entire upper body seemed to have fallen into some evil spell, and he lost weight several times, almost unrecognizable in his original shape.

In Tao Zhengxin's throat, there was a small wound, which was still oozing blood, obviously bitten by the bat demon beast just now. And there was no breath in his snort, and he had been dead for a long time, and his two eyes were round open, as if he was a little dead.

Although he had the intention of letting this Tao Zhengxin be cannon fodder, when he really died, everyone was also in a low mood, and there was a feeling of sadness when a rabbit died and a fox died. Tao Zhengyou sighed deeply, stretched out a hand and patted Tao Zhengxin's corpse a few times, and slowly closed his eyes.

Tao Zhengxin died, and the remaining Tao Zhengzhi was scared and said, "Brother, I'...... My cultivation is too low, or am I waiting for everyone outside? ”

Tao Zhengyou turned his head to look at the depths of the passage, and said in a muffled voice: "Our Tao family has no way out, this time it is unsuccessful and becomes benevolent, only by rescuing the head of the family, our Tao family can have hope, you can rest assured, I and the second uncle will try our best to protect you later." ”
