Chapter 16: Demon Beasts

"Everyone, what do you think of what Captain Lu said?" the middle-aged village owner waited for Captain Lu to exit the door, glanced around and asked solemnly.

"In the second half of the doubt!" the long-bearded leader mused.

"Captain Lu's words seem to be very sincere!

Judging from the several interactions with Lu San and Liao Liao, although this person is extremely sincere on the surface, what he says is mostly cunning. It is better to believe this man's words than to believe that sows can also climb trees!" another voice said in a sneering tone.

A number of leaders then spoke, but there were both believers and skeptics. After saying goodbye and having no new ideas, the owner of the village, who had been silent, raised his hand forward, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said: "Since you have different opinions, then I decided to believe Captain Lu San's words on the surface, and secretly sent two people to secretly follow Lu San for a period of time. It would be best if it was proved that Lu San did not lie, otherwise not only would the treasure be recovered, but Lu San would also be dealt with harshly, so as to follow suit!"

The four words "to respect and emulate" in the back were cold, and the voice of the inner strength was even more intense, only to say that the commanders present were trembling for a while, and there were two commanders who had planned to secretly make some small moves in case of the news of the treasure, and their legs trembled, dispelling the idea of just rising.

The middle-aged village owner coldly looked at the behavior of the twelve people present after hearing the words of similar warnings, and opened the door without snorting and walked out of the meeting room. As the sound of the door closing, the relaxed "whirring" in the conference room came and went, and the two most unbearable people suddenly collapsed on the chair with pale faces. Although the lord of the village did not mention anything about what everyone present had to do with Lu San, the meaning of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger was undoubtedly revealed from that cold tone. I believe that as long as someone really does something about the treasure and is aware of it, it will not be easy.

、、、、、、

Yunlin hasn't been there since he came out of the cave.

Exploring the cave again to find out the treasure in the package that the red-faced man might have hidden in the cave, Yun Lin has been pondering this kind of thought, but the risk of getting lost in the cave makes him have to endure it.

The torture of forbearance made Yun Lin practice all the time every day, either reading, meditating, practicing fists and swords, but now whether he was practicing literature or martial arts, Yun Lin stayed in a mountain col five miles away from the cave.

In this place, if the soul bee at the mouth of the cave is found by him, he can move immediately, and it will not be discovered by the red-faced man or others.

Five days have passed!

Ten days passed!

Thirty days have passed!

However, in the past thirty days, Yunlin has integrated the experience gained from the fierce battles in the forest, and now the chaotic ring technique has been seamlessly integrated between several moves, and there is no obvious boundary between the moves. The coordination between the several formulas such as "the wind rises, the nine ring array, and the chaotic yin and yang" in the chaotic ring recipe makes it impossible to distinguish whether it is two or three styles, but it is completely integrated, like a move. If he meets the red-faced man again at this time, even if he doesn't have to sprinkle dirt and other tricks, Yun Lin is confident that he will defeat them in one fell swoop, of course, this is when the other party has not made progress.

During these thirty days, Yunlin spent his time quietly cultivating and waiting. But there are people who can't be quiet at all. At this time, in the courtyard of the Zhang Mansion, the head of the Zhang family had a gloomy face, and scolded several elders next to him angrily: "You waste, so many days have passed, but you can't find any valuable clues. The children of the family are now all terrified, and they dare not go into the mountains to collect medicine and practice, even if they go to the street to shop, they have to go out in groups. In just 30 days, nine of the disciples have gone missing, many more have been injured, and even one elder has also disappeared. Tell me, what should I do next?"

Silence! a dead silence.

The four elders present were like winter cicadas, trembling and not daring to make a sound.

The head of the Zhang family looked at the four elders who didn't snort, didn't say a word, circled around the four of them three times, and then sighed, wanting to say something but didn't say it. After shaking his head, he went around three more times, until the four people who were wrapped around were all cold and stood on end, and the head of the Zhang family finally stopped, cleared his throat and said, "Since you don't have a good idea to wait, then listen to me." First of all, Great Elder, you immediately send someone to the City Lord's Mansion to report the case, although the City Lord's Mansion has always been wary of our four major families, but such a big thing happened in Shanyang City, and its City Lord's Mansion can't get out of it. Secondly, recently, the disciples of the clan have gone out to practice, and they all need a team of ten people, and there must be an elder to follow and protect them secretly. ”

"Yes!" the four replied in unison.

When the idea was made, there was no advocacy, and at this time, all four of them tried to show their enthusiasm, so as not to leave a bad impression in front of the head of the family, and the small shoes would not be worn in the future.

At this moment, Yun Lin, who was fighting in the col in the suburbs, stopped boxing, and a swallow threw himself into the back of the stone pile next to him, sitting cross-legged with bated breath. But Yun Lin was not practicing at this time, his mind had already focused on the bees at the entrance of the cave controlled by the split soul.

Two or three feet in front of the entrance of the cave, a red-faced man who had not appeared for a month walked with his head bowed and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "Tail, tail! I have been haunting Lao Tzu for thirty days, thinking that Lao Tzu does not know." I've been taking you around for nearly a month, and today I'm just going to cut off my tail. Then start cultivating the divine skills, and wait for the day when Lao Tzu's divine skills are completed, hum hum!"

After that, his face showed a hideous color, which surprised Yun Lin, who saw all this through the soul splitting!

The red-faced man walked to the mouth of the cave, looked back at a meaningful place at the bottom of the mountain, and deliberately tore off a half-man-tall tree beside the cave before bowing his head and going into the cave.

Just as the red-faced man entered the cave, a small bee quietly stopped on his collar, and the red-faced Han Lu San, who was paying attention to the "tail" behind him, didn't notice this at all, and of course even if he did, he wouldn't take the little bug to heart.

As soon as he entered the cave, the light was obliterated by the darkness in an instant, and the red-faced man took it out of his sleeve, and a stone that emitted a soft white light appeared on his right hand, and the soft white light illuminated the two feet of Fang Yuan clearly.

At this time, Yun Lin's body, who was far away from the mountain col five miles away, trembled slightly, and muttered indistinctly: "Why does everyone have a moonstone? Born to owe it!"

The red-faced Han Lu San turned left and right in the labyrinthine cave at this time, and kept wandering in the labyrinthine cave, but there were some traces of it everywhere he walked, and after walking for about half an hour, he actually walked to the cave where Yunlin had walked. However, the red-faced man did not show signs of getting lost, and when he came to the fork in the road where Yun Lin hesitated to retreat last time, he walked to the middle of the tunnel without hesitation.

The further you go, the more slippery the ground becomes, and gradually puddles of water come up, and from time to time a water snake or other small animal sprang out.

After about a quarter of an hour, there was only the echo of feet treading water in the cave, and the sound of crackling was unusually clear, and it seemed more and more quiet and permeable.

Suddenly, the red-faced man did not advance but retreated, stepped on the water and walked two steps to the side, put the moonstone in his hand to his mouth, the whole person jumped up three feet high, hooked up with both hands, hooked a high hanging stone slab, and then turned over, the whole person seemed to disappear from the cave with height.

If it weren't for the soft light that was still clear, it would be impossible to imagine that there was a person here!

As for the footprints on the ground, because they were all submerged in turbid water, there was no trace at all. At this time, the red-faced man, the whole person shrank in a naturally formed hole on the side of the top of the cave, looking up from the bottom, he could only see the top of the slate cave, and he couldn't find the clue if he didn't jump up. Then the light disappeared instantly, and the surroundings fell into darkness and silence.

Quiescence!

Except for the occasional clatter of water, nothing could be heard or anything could be seen.

Time passed like quicksand, and I don't know how long it took, until Yunlin, five miles away, took a nap for the incomparable silence, when suddenly the sound of treading water with a shallow foot and a deep foot echoed in the cave passage.

From the place where the bee was divided, the red-faced man shuddered suddenly, and then became silent again, as if the man had died from now on, and the bee was clinging to only a stubborn stone.

The sound of treading water is getting louder and louder, but it is stop-and-go, as if groping its way forward.

With the sound came the light, and the darkness of the right talent was dispelled at once. Yun Lin saw two black-clothed men holding a knife in one hand and a moonstone in the other, observing and groping left and right in the cave to see if they were looking for any clues to follow.

"Ding!" came the sound of stones falling to the ground in the depths of the dark tunnel in the middle of the three forks in the road ahead, clear and loud.

I saw the two black-clothed people below nodding their heads to each other, and rushed forward with a treading of water, and in a blink of an eye, the darkness returned to the state in front of them.

In a moment, there was a huge beast roar in front of him, followed by the sound of a giant object slapping against the cave wall, accompanied by two frightened "Demon beasts!

Yun Lin looked forward through the Soul Splitting Bee, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly. Next, there was the sound of the golden wind splitting blades and heavy objects hitting in front of them, accompanied by the sound of non-stop treading water.

"Ah——h

Then there was the sound of a man's footsteps stepping on water and running quickly, the sound was messy, and the people who had obviously fled were panicked, stumbling all the way, with no direction at all.

But immediately after a more powerful and swift beast leap and the sound of a blade, a short "Ah!" sound came from ahead, as if it had just come out of the throat before it was stopped.

Then there was a beast howl that was higher than a louder, the sound was full of sadness, anger, and pain, presumably this demon beast also suffered a lot of losses under the hands of the two.
