Chapter 224: The Blocker
After three days of rest, Zhu Jue finally recovered from his injuries, and seeing that it had been nearly ten days since the two of them set off from Rain City, he and Yun Ze decided to speed up their pace and find the Blood Qilin as soon as possible, so that they could go back to the business. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Where are you going now?" At this moment, the two of them stood halfway up the Ox Horn Peak, where the mountain began to split in two, and in front of them were two towering peaks like clouds, like ox horns, if they chose the wrong direction, they would probably waste a lot of time. I saw Yun Ze close his eyes, and under Zhu Jue's puzzled gaze, he turned around in place, and then pointed to the mountain peak on the left and said, "Just go there." ”
"How do you know?" asked Zhu Jue curiously.
"Intuition. Yun Ze smiled, then took a step forward and walked forward on his own.
As it turned out, Yun Ze's intuition was quite accurate, and as the two of them kept climbing upwards, the air around them gradually became hot, as if this was not an ordinary mountain, but a crater that could erupt at any time. However, in this way, the two of them only need to follow the heat source to find the location of the fire qilin, which provides them with a lot of convenience.
"You see, the trees around are thinning. Zhu Jue looked around and said to Yun Ze.
"In such an abnormal climate, it is normal to have such changes. Yun Ze nodded, but saw Zhu Jue beside him suddenly stop.
"Hey, that...... Thank you for the previous thing. Zhu Jue said softly, during the time he was poisoned, Yun Ze had always been by his side to take care of him.
"It should. Yun Ze turned his head, and a trace of curvature appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Also, there's something I've been wanting to ask you. ”
"Say it. ”
"The person in the fan, did you catch it?" Zhu Jue's expression suddenly became serious, he had promised the old aunt inside that if he could get out, he would find a way to save her and Erniu, although it had been a few months, he had not left this matter behind.
Yun Ze's expression froze, as if he didn't expect Zhu Jue to suddenly ask this question. His lips opened slightly, as if to say something, but at last he shook his head and continued to walk forward.
"What, do you dare to do it?" Zhu Jue chased after him, stopped in front of Yun Ze, and asked sharply. The two looked at each other, and after half a sound, Yun Ze said in a flat tone, "I didn't do that." ”
"Unreasonable. Zhu Jue shook his head, he thought that after these few days of contact, the two would be able to get along with each other more or less, but he didn't expect that now, Yun Ze still denied this matter, which couldn't help but make him feel disappointed.
"Believe it or not, we have to finish what we need first, there are still so many people in Rain City waiting to save their lives. Yun Ze stepped forward and said in a slightly tired tone. Next, the two of them didn't speak again, just cared about hurrying with their heads bored, and it only took half a day to climb half of the "horns", which was not fast.
"Look there!" Yun Ze suddenly stopped on a gentle slope near the top of the mountain, and pointed not far away. Zhu Jue raised his head and vaguely saw that there was a two-person high hole, which was covered by dense leaves, and from time to time bursts of black smoke overflowed from inside, with a pungent smell, staining the surrounding leaves into burnt yellow.
Zhu Jue hurriedly stepped forward, brushed aside those leaves, only to feel a scorching breath coming towards him, and immediately shouted happily: "It won't be wrong, this is it!"
At this time, the earth suddenly shook, and before Zhu Jue could figure out what was going on, he was instantly knocked away by a huge force and hit a pine tree next to him. Yun Ze raised his head and saw two figures more than five meters tall slowly walking out of the woods, one of them was gray, his ears were like banana leaves, his thick nose hung down to the ground, and the corners of his mouth were two huge fangs, which were like an elephant spirit. The other was dark, with thick hair, two horns on his head, and a black trident in his hand, apparently transformed by a bull demon. And behind them, there was also a man wrapped in a black robe floating in mid-air, who was looking at Yun Ze and Zhu Jue with green eyes at the moment.
"What are these things?" Zhu Jue got up from the ground, patted the soil on his body, and looked at the two huge monsters in front of him with a shocked expression.
"If you two want to live, you'd better get out of here, or you'll be used to fill the bellies of my two pets. The black-robed man sneered, and his figure flashed in front of the two.
"I didn't expect that there are so many monsters on a small Niujiao Mountain, which is really insightful. If you guessed correctly, the little demon who attacked us before was also sent by you, right?" Yun Ze stepped forward and looked at the man in black without fear.
"So what?" the man in black shrugged.
"Brute!" Zhu Jue waved his hand, and suddenly released a red horse training, sweeping towards the man in black. The man in black moved quite quickly, dodging his attack in one fell swoop, and then waved his hand and said, "Demon Mountain, Black Wind, kill them." ”
The two behemoths let out a loud roar, and then strode towards them. Zhu Jue and Yun Ze glanced at each other, and the two of them jumped up at the same time, only to see Zhu Jue come to the front of the elephant spirit, and threw out more than a dozen hot fireballs from his hands one after another, and a violent explosion sounded, and the elephant spirit fell directly backwards, overpowering a large number of trees. On the other side, Yun Ze also dodged the attack of the trident sideways, and then came to the front of the bull demon, and with a wave of the fan, a huge force suddenly gushed out, knocking the huge bull demon to the ground.
Seeing that in an instant, the Demon Mountain and the Black Wind had been defeated, and the man in black couldn't help but snort coldly: "These two boys really have some skills, no wonder those little miscellaneous can't deal with it." ”
Zhu Jue returned to the ground, raised his head, and said to the man in black in a smug tone: "How is it, you know how powerful we are, why don't you run for your life quickly?" Before the words fell, a strong wind suddenly swept by him, and before Zhu Jue could react, he was completely entangled by the nose of the elephant spirit. Feeling the brute force squeezing from all around, Zhu Jue's face turned the color of pig liver for a while, and at the same time, the bones of his whole body made a slight cracking sound.
"Zhu Jue!" Yun Ze turned his head and saw that Zhu Jue had been hit, so he wanted to step forward to support, who knew that in a short moment of distraction, the bull demon had already gotten up from the ground, made a "moo" sound, and flew him hundreds of meters away with a huge bull horn, fell down the cliff, and disappeared without a trace.
"Hahaha!" The man in black opened his arms and let out a burst of arrogant laughter. And in the fire cloud cave on the side, there was a pair of red eyes, looking closely at the people outside through the thick darkness.
