Chapter 227: Shadow Messenger of Wisdom (1)
Yun Xiao, who hurriedly withdrew his legs and feet on the side, couldn't care about the pain relief from his palm when he saw this, his body stood upright and spun in the air for several weeks, and then flew to Liu Qingyi's side, hugged his waist, and his left hand and Yan San, who also fell to the ground slowly, slammed into each other again, and the two used this force to eject each other.
The two landed almost at the same time, each scratching a deep mark on the ground, and gradually stabilized their bodies.
On the ground, there were gravel flying under the feet of Yun Xiao and Yan San, and Shao Yang and Luo Qi, who were fighting on the side, couldn't help but stop their movements and cast their eyes in this direction.
"Uh-poof!"
"Yunxiao! Yunxiao, are you okay? โ
Forcibly stabilizing his body, Nalan Yunxiao had a clear breathing sound coming out of his snort. His face was flushed, and his closed mouth squirmed slightly, but he finally couldn't hold it back, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Seeing this, the girl in her arms hurriedly broke free from the restraints and supported Yun Xiao with her backhand, with a worried look on her pretty face.
"That guy ......"
Shao Yang, who was not far away, looked at the thin man in black with a solemn gaze whose face was always indifferent and did not see the slightest wave, and his expression was particularly solemn at this moment.
He couldn't be clearer about Yun Xiao's kung fu, and from the simple move just now, he also saw that Liu Qingyi's skills were extraordinary, and he didn't think it was under Yun Xiao. And the two of them have joined forces with such a tacit understanding, and they have never hurt this person in the slightest, which is enough to see the strength of his kung fu.
If it is changed to himself, I am afraid it is difficult to say whether he can take ten moves in his hands.
"Nalan Yunxiao, it seems that this battle between us should be over, right?"
Yan San, who was standing steadily not far away, finally had an extremely satisfied smile on his face after seeing Yun Xiao vomiting blood in front of him.
However, the solemnity in Yan San's deep eyes did not diminish much. The pain that faintly entered the bone marrow from his arms and lower back also made him understand that the two people in front of him were not opponents to be easily underestimated. What's more, before that, Nalan Yunxiao had also experienced a lot of physical exertion.
Yun Xiao, who was held by Liu Qingyi's wrist, gasped lightly at the corners of his mouth, but the stubbornness in his eyes did not retreat in the slightest.
His fists were clenched tightly, and his teeth were lightly bitten, obviously being injured by Yan San just now, which actually made his battle intent that was originally wilting because of some exhaustion rush again.
Yun Xiao glanced up at the girl beside her with concern, and saw that her pretty face was also slightly depressed, and under all the distress, she couldn't help but feel a sudden rush of anger in her heart.
"Damn guy, it's okay if you hurt me, but how dare you hurt Qingyi? I'm fighting with you! โ
Nalan Yunxiao gritted his teeth and chattered so angrily in his heart, anger flew in his eyes, and then he roared angrily, freed up Liu Qingyi to support his arm, and his body suddenly shot towards Yan San not far away again, and his steps were so fast, like a cheetah at this moment.
"Thoroughly enraged? It's even more interesting. It just so happens that I also want to try how much power is left for the people of the otherworldly remnants who have unleashed the hidden potential in their bodies! โ
Yan Sanhu's eyes sank suddenly, and there was a black glow flashing in the depths of his eyes. Within the range of his body, an invisible energy swirled and rose outside his body, causing the black robe he wore to begin to rise without wind.
"Bang-"
"Yunxiao, don't!"
Liu Qingyi's coquettish voice, followed by the muffled sound of two figures suddenly and ferociously colliding together, spread in the open space in the center of the island in the middle of the lake full of dense forests, and the birds and birds that originally inhabited the forest were scattered and fled......
As the twilight fades and the twilight sinks in the west, the sky begins to be enveloped in the desolate night as the remnant sun disappears into the blue sky of the watchful sea.
Because the city of Santa Fe is located on the northern seashore, the heat wave that permeates the air due to the scorching sun is also cooling down at a rapid rate.
The bright moon peeks out of the clouds, and the stars dot the night sky, gradually brightening and increasing between the flickering. The cool breeze swept across the lake, along the islands in the middle of the lake, through the layers of dense forests, and finally through the woods several figures that were quietly and quickly shuttling, raising the green silk hanging from their foreheads.
"Yunxiao, how are you? Can it still hold on? โ
The dim moonlight pierced through the shade of the trees, dappling the concerned look of a young man. The bridge of his nose was refracted with a faint glow because of his glasses, and it was reflected on another handsome man who was supported by the shadow of a certain girl.
When he saw that the latter's handsome face was actually pale at this moment, he couldn't help but whisper in an extremely worried tone.
"I ...... Ahem, I'm fine, I should be able to hold on......"
The young girl supported the pale young man, and there was still a trace of blood on the corner of his lips that had not yet dried up. His pair of sword eyebrows trembled slightly, and there was a deep tiredness in his eyes. The moonlight reflected on his slowly raised face, and it clearly reflected the familiar outline of his facial features.
It was Nalan Yunxiao who had just experienced a desperate struggle with Yan San in the heartbroken stone clearing of the island.
However, judging from his weak state at the moment, it is obvious that the fierce fight just now has caused him a lot of internal injuries. In addition, at this moment, his physical strength was also consumed, and Yun Xiao even had an extremely difficult time walking and escaping.
"No, Yun Xiao's pulse is too disordered! Master told me that this was a sign of a very serious injury in my body. Shao Yang, we have to find a place to rest first. If you continue to run blindly like this, if Yun Xiao has any three longs and two shorts, then ......"
However, just when Liu Qingyi was about to say something unexpected, Hao's wrist was tightly held by Yun Xiao, who was holding on to him.
The expression in his eyes was slightly condensed, and he glanced at the girl beside him firmly, and then shook his head lightly and vetoed: "No, it's too dangerous to stay more now." That guy is too strong in kung fu for us to beat him. โ
"But the stone bridge from the island in the middle of the lake to the land exit of the city park was blocked by their people. And it seems that the other party has set some trap. Even if we can resist their attack from the light, we don't know how to avoid the so-called trap in the shadows. โ
Liu Qingyi's pretty face was solemn, and after she had just learned from Shao Yang that the people of the other party's organization had secretly set up a trap on the stone bridge, she hurriedly reminded Yunxiao anxiously.
"That's it. Liu Qingyi, you take Yun Xiaoqian to the waterway in the lake first, and I will lead them away! โ
After Shao Yang finished speaking, he ignored the opposition of Nalan Yunxiao and Liu Qingyi, and when the words fell, he had already turned around quickly and swept into the dense forest. In a few flickeres, the figure was overshadowed by the vast night.
"No, I can't. Shao Yang, Shao Yang! โ
Liu Qingyi was stunned at first, and then quickly reacted to his senses, and shouted in a low voice in the direction where Shao Yang disappeared not far away.
"Qingyi!" Seeing this, Yun Xiao hurriedly covered Liu Qingyi's mouth that was still coquettish, and whispered comfort in his ear-
"Forget Qingyi, don't call it. I know Shao Yang's temper, and he can't be persuaded to do what he decides. For now we must go first, and as soon as we get out of here, we must call for someone to come and rescue him. Otherwise, if it drags on, we will all be caught. โ
Liu Qingyi turned her face, her beautiful eyes stared at Yun Xiao, whose face was becoming more and more pale, and after struggling and hesitating for a moment in her heart, she nodded her head heavily......
"Quick, there seems to be movement over there. Come with me. โ
"If they can't escape, they must still be hiding somewhere on this island. And the eighth child, you hurry up and find him for me......"
The voices of Yan San and Luo Qi began to come from the night suddenly.
Immediately, a large number of footsteps trampled on the grass, and came into the ears of Yun Xiao and Qingyi, who were hiding somewhere in the jungle, so that both of them hurriedly held their breath and did not dare to make the slightest sound.
It wasn't until the footsteps of the black-clothed crowd began to go away again that Yun Xiao couldn't help but spit out the turbid breath in his mouth, and then continued to gasp slightly and asked the girl beside him-
"Qingyi, you're more familiar with this place than I am. Do you know where you can dive directly from the deep water along the edge of the lakeside grass? โ
Liu Qingyi frowned slightly and remembered for a moment, then slowly helped Yun Xiao to stand up, and his slender jade hand reached out and pointed in the direction of the guardrail somewhere on the lakeside in front of him.
"Yun Xiao, you see, near that inky bush, it should be the deepest part of the entire island. However, the lake is wide from the opposite shore, and if you dive with your breath closed, it will take three or four minutes at the earliest. โ
"Can you hold on?" There was a hint of solemn worry in the girl's words.
"No problem, let's go. If they found out, Shao Yang's plan would be in vain. Yun Xiao's face was rare, and Liu Qingyi showed such a serious meaning.
"yes, okay."
Seeing this, Liu Qingyi stopped procrastinating, supported Yunxiao, and the two quietly moved towards the lakeside of the deep water area under the cover of the dense forest at night......
"Poofโ"
The sound of a heavy object falling into the water spread from the silent cool night environment, and the sudden sound immediately disturbed some of the black-clothed subordinates of the Hell Mansion who were patrolling near the lakeside.
"Lord Star Envoy, Seventh Master, there is a sound of falling water here!"
Those black-clothed subordinates who were aware of it, after hearing the sound of falling water not far away, hurriedly rushed back into the forest and quickly turned forward, reporting to Yan San and Luo Qi, who were standing on a certain treetop in the dense forest at the moment, looking down.
At the same time, beside a willow forest on the shore of the lake near the shallow water, there was also a congratulatory exclamation: "Report to the Star Envoy, we have found the unconscious Eighth Master here." โ
Seeing that there was news coming from the left and right sides of the lake at this moment, Yan San immediately made a decision, and indifferently commanded Luo Qi beside him.
"Old Seven, you take a few people to see how Eighth is doing. I took the rest of the people and hurried to the place where the sound of falling water was heard. As for the four-eyed boy named Shao Yang, don't pay attention to him for the time being, lest you fall for their trick to divert the tiger from the mountain. โ
"Well, it's still the third master who thinks thoughtfully. You, and the two of you, come with me! โ
Hearing this, Luo Qi smiled slyly, and immediately nodded in approval, and led the three people behind him to quickly run to the place where Shao Yang and Chu Bahu were fighting. And Yan San's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light and suspicion, and after a while, he swept towards the place where the sound of falling water came from with the rest of the people.
"What's going on?"
When he came to the lakeside, Yan San's eyes first swept to the layers of waves that were still rippling on the surface of the lake, and then looked back at the few subordinates who had just heard the sound of falling into the water.
"Lord Star Envoy, my subordinates have just noticed that there is a black shadow shuttling through the forest next to him to the lake, and then they hear the sound of falling water. By the time we reached the lake, the figure was gone. โ
Therefore, the subordinate concluded that the man must have escaped by jumping into the water.
"In this way, since Nalan Yunxiao didn't escape from the bridge, I think he noticed the trap we secretly laid on the stone bridge?" Yan San looked at the lake in front of him, a trace of hesitation flashed between his eyebrows, and his deep-set eyes flickered slightly.
He had never understood Chu Bazi's temperament, and he obviously hadn't figured out how the other party chose to avoid the lake bridge in advance without touching any traps he had carefully arranged.
