Chapter 46: Exposed

Li Rong carried the longbow and quiver cross-body on his right shoulder, and tied the short sword horizontally to his chest. After doing all this, Li Rong flashed out of the mine and lurked in a dense vegetation near the mine.www.biquge.info

Soon, Li Rong heard the sound of footsteps approaching, and the two figures, one old and one young, also came into view.

When the two came to the mine, the old man frowned slightly and said, "Miss, the mine has really collapsed, what should we do?"

Li Wushuang shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet, Grandpa Hong, why do you think this mine collapsed?"

The old man looked around and said, "There are no traces of lightning splitting, and there has not been a lot of rain recently, so it should not be a natural collapse." ”

"This mine cave is a complete rock tunnel, it can't easily collapse without external force, Grandpa Hong, do you think someone will find that thing?" asked Li Wushuang.

The old man shook his head: "Even if someone knows that the thing is inside, there is no need to collapse the mine, right?"

"Anyway, the collapse of the mine is not a good thing for us, and if it really happened to be man-made, then maybe it has been taken. Li Wushuang's brows tightened.

"Even if we hadn't taken it, in the current situation, it would be impossible for us to take it away from our family. The old man sighed.

"What do you mean, Grandpa Hong?" asked Li Wushuang.

"And the family put forward conditions, plus the ownership of this mine. The old man said.

"But will this make the family suspicious?" Li Wushuang looked worried.

"We have no other way but to give it a try, if it really doesn't work, bringing back an ancestral object is enough for us to make a difference. The old man said.

"It's a pity, it is said that that thing is also of some help to the martial artists who locked the realm first, and I don't know if it's true or not. Li Wushuang said.

The old man smiled and shook his head: "Every breakthrough in the first weather lock realm needs to meet extremely harsh conditions, how can a piece of artifact have such great effect? If it is really so magical, then it is not a family thing for a long time." ”

"That's right, a legend is a legend after all, it's good to get it, even if you can't get it, it doesn't matter, anyway, the main purpose of our visit this time is an ancestral object. Li Wushuang said with a smile.

"Miss, since the mine has collapsed, and we can't dig it up at the moment, why don't we go back to our home first, I'm afraid that if we leave for a long time, they will be suspicious. The old man said.

"It's fine. Li Wushuang nodded, preparing to leave with the old man.

At this moment, Li Rong, who was listening intently not far away, suddenly noticed a trace of abnormality, and through the faint fishy smell in the air, his eyes accurately caught a poisonous snake approaching him.

It was a thumb-thick bamboo leaf green, about two feet long, with a large triangular head held high, and eyes the size of mung beans flashing with a cold glow.

Zhu Yeqing noticed that Li Rong had discovered it, so he was no longer cautious, it contracted its body, like a pressed spring, and the oily letter kept spitting out of its mouth, making a "hissing" sound.

Li Rong's heart was shocked, and the skin and flesh of his whole body instantly tightened. He stared at the bamboo leaf green snake without blinking, not daring to make too much movement.

The old man and Li Wushuang hadn't gone far yet, and he didn't want to reveal his whereabouts.

Seeing that the prey was firmly locked by itself and did not dare to move, the bamboo leaf green snake lowered its head, bounced up violently, and its huge fangs catapulted out of the flesh membranes on both sides of the snake's mouth, and quickly locked on Li Rong's throat.

The moment the snake attacked, the speed was amazingly fast, and with the naked eye, only a vague green shadow could be seen, and when the picture in front of him returned to clarity, the snake had already completed the attack, and was ready to enjoy the food.

Saying that it was too late, Li Rong almost at the moment when the bamboo leaf green snake bounced up, he pulled out the short sword tied to his chest and slashed it, easily cutting the hideous bamboo leaf green snake from head to tail.

The sharpness of this short sword greatly surprised Li Rong, and there was no hindrance in the process of slashing the bamboo leaf green snake, not to mention, not even the sound of a sharp weapon cutting the flesh and skin.

Li Rong couldn't help but sigh, and his other hand grabbed Zhu Yeqing's body that was cut in half like lightning, preventing them from falling to the ground and making a noise.

"Whew!" After doing all this, Li Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and did not make any sound, which meant that he would not be exposed.

However, at this moment, an unprecedented sense of crisis instantly enveloped Li Rong's body and mind, and immediately after, several sharp sound of breaking the air came to his face.

Li Rong's pupils shrank, and he subconsciously fell back, and a lazy donkey rolled away from the previous position.

"Doo!

Li Rong steadied himself and looked at the place where he was before, only to see a steel nail piercing the trunk of the tree behind him, and two more nails deep into the hard rocky ground.

The two steel needles that were driven into the ground were originally the positions of his legs, and the trunk of the tree behind them corresponded to his throat!

Obviously, the person who shot had no intention of staying alive.

"Good skill, who is your Excellency, why are you lurking here and eavesdropping on us?"

Li Rong's figure was exposed, and the old man surnamed Hong and Li Wushuang went and returned.

"Eavesdropping? I've been here for a long time, did you insist on talking next to me after you came, and you blamed me?" Li Rongwei smiled, and in order to hide his identity, he also made some adjustments to his voice.

"Oh, this is the territory of the Li family in Jiangcheng, we are guests of the Li family, there is nothing wrong with coming here, but I dare to ask who your Excellency is, why are you here, and what is the relationship with the Li family?" the old man asked.

"Who am I, what do I do here, and what does it matter to you?" but if you really want to know, you might as well tell me what 'that thing' is in your mouth? If I think it's worth it, maybe I'll tell you who I am?" Li Rong finished speaking, and there was another strange laugh.

"Your Excellency's curiosity is too strong, don't you know that curiosity kills the cat?" said the old man with a smile.

Li Rong waved his hand: "I'm not a cat, so curiosity can't kill me, oh yes, I'm still curious how you found me? ”

The old man pointed to the corpse of the bamboo leaf green snake in Li Rong's hand and said: "You didn't expose the breath, but it was exposed, I had already noticed its breath, but this breath suddenly disappeared, and there was a little more blood in the air, how can I not notice it?"

"I see, I've been taught, it seems that I haven't studied this latent knowledge thoroughly enough, it turns out that there are so many things that can expose me besides myself. Li Rong smiled.

"Grandpa Hong, don't talk nonsense with him, he overheard our conversation, we can't let him leave, and he said that he has been here for a long time, maybe he collapsed the mine, even if it is not him, it must have nothing to do with him, let's take him down first. Li Wushuang shouted.

The old man's eyes lit up, and he smiled: "If Your Excellency doesn't reveal your identity, then I can only take you down and torture you according to my young lady's wishes." ”

"What? salute first and then soldier? Haha! If you want to take me, you have to see if you have the ability!" Li Rong let out a long roar and plunged into the jungle behind him.

The aura emanating from the old man surnamed Hong was very powerful, Li Rong thought that he was not an opponent, so he didn't think about fighting them at all, and the previous conversation with them was also to delay time and find a way out.

Now that the two on the other side have lost their patience, and he has found a way out, he naturally did not hesitate for a moment and slipped away.

"Grandpa Hong, you can't let him leave!" Li Wushuang immediately screamed when he saw Li Rong fleeing decisively.

"Miss, don't worry, it's just a junior in the Tongmai realm, even with the help of the jungle environment, it is impossible for him to escape from my aura lock. The old man surnamed Hong laughed, and his thin body ejected like a cannonball.
