Volume 1 The Land of Ashes Chapter 13 Ghostly Black Armor
"Crying?" Chu Zhaozhao frowned.
After Chu Qingxiao finished saying that, she listened hard, but for so long, she didn't hear any sound at all.
"Hmm." Chu Qingxiao nodded very firmly: "Like children, many children ......"
"They're crying......"
Chu Qingxiao said this, his eyes wandering in the courtyard, as if looking for the direction from which the cry came.
Wang Che on the side saw that he was serious, and couldn't help but look at the empty courtyard.
It was just after noon, but perhaps because of the heavy snowfall, the sky was a little dark.
There was not half a figure in the empty courtyard, only a few black crooked-necked trees stretched out their branches, fluttering their claws and dancing in a disorderly manner, and with the dim sky, from a distance, those dead trees looked at them like ghosts.
Wang Che shuddered and looked at Chu Qingxiao: "Surname...... ...... with the surname Chu You don't scare people, where is there any crying! ”
Although Wang Gongzi said this, his body leaned towards Chu Qingxiao very honestly.
"And can you be sure where those cries are coming from?" Chu Zhaozhao asked.
Chu Qingxiao frowned, listened carefully, the cry was intermittent and a little noisy, he took some effort before he raised his head and pointed to the direction of the inner courtyard not far away: "It seems to come from there." ”
"Then go there and have a look." Chu Zhaozhao was resolute and resolute, and immediately set a battle plan.
Chu Qingxiao also nodded when he heard this, and walked to keep up with Chu Zhaozhao.
Although Wang Gongzi was beating a drum in his heart, he didn't turn back when he opened the bow at this moment, so he could only keep up.
It's just that the three of them probably didn't pay attention, and at this moment, above their heads, above this mansion, black clouds were surging.
In the surging clouds, it seems that a pair of huge eyes are slowly opening and watching here.
……
It seemed to be getting darker.
It was only after noon, but it was so dark that it seemed to be evening.
The empty courtyard in the Zhu family's compound seemed to have been taken care of for a long time, and the snow on the ground was very thick, and the three of them walked on the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the speed was very slow.
At first, they were a little vigilant, afraid that the people in the courtyard would find them, but after walking for a while, they did not see any figures.
The huge courtyard was as silent as death.
Only the footsteps of the three of them echoed with the sound of the wind and snow.
Chu Zhaozhao walked at the forefront, her hands sealed and she was still trying to find the pseudo-god's qi.
Chu Qingxiao also frowned, searching for the direction from which the terrible cry came from.
Only Wang Che, who was at the end of the team, was still confused about this inexplicable action.
A cold wind whistled by, and suddenly there was a "gurgling" sound behind him.
In the empty courtyard, the hoarse voice resembled the ghostly whispers of some stories.
Wang Che, who was already nervous, was excited, and he hurriedly looked back and saw a black figure standing not far away.
He was so frightened that he let out a scream, perhaps because he was too flustered, and in the process of retreating, one foot stepped into the snow, and his body was crooked, and he fell into the snow.
"Brother Wang?"
Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao, who were walking in front of the team, were also taken aback by his movements, and the two hurriedly turned around, Chu Zhaozhao looked around with a wary expression, and at the same time, his whole body was running, and he was ready to fight the enemy.
And Chu Qingxiao squatted down and pulled Wang Che up from the snow.
"What's going on?" Chu Qingxiao asked.
Wang Che was shocked, his face turned pale, and he pointed not far away and said loudly: "There! There! Ghosts! ”
Chu Qingxiao and the others also followed the prestige, and waited until they saw the situation there.
Chu Qingxiao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly.
Chu Zhaozhao also came back to her senses, she stared at Wang Che with wide eyes and wanted to say something, but when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed it back, and only sighed at that time.
This sigh is obviously far more lethal than the accusation in words.
Wang Che blushed and said, "There are really ghosts there, don't believe you!" ”
He turned his head to look at the place as well, but the next moment, he froze there as if someone had cast a spell on him.
It turned out that the black figure was actually just a dead tree in the courtyard, and the strange sound he heard just now was probably just a dead branch blown by the cold wind.
Wang Che, who realized his gaffe, was suddenly embarrassed and embarrassed: "I...... I was just dazzled ...... moment."
Chu Zhaozhao didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned around and left.
Chu Qingxiao patted Wang Che on the shoulder, smiling without saying a word.
Young Master Wang was speechless for a while, after all, he didn't have the face to defend anymore, so he could only lower his head and keep up with the footsteps of the two people in front of him.
"Don't you think it's strange? Why is there a child's cry here, and only you can hear it? Walking at the front of the team, Chu Zhaozhao, who had always been searching for pseudo-divine qi to no avail, looked at Chu Qingxiao and asked.
Chu Qingxiao shook his head and said, "I don't know very well, but the more I go to the inner courtyard, the clearer the cry is." ”
With that, he fixed his gaze on the gate that led to the inner courtyard in the distance.
The courtyard door was locked, and he couldn't see the situation inside, but Chu Qingxiao could clearly feel that those cries seemed to be calling him......
Chu Zhaozhao frowned and thought carefully about the connection between these things, she was about to say something.
"Ah!!h
But at this moment, Wang Che's exclamation came from behind him.
Chu Zhaozhao, who was about to speak, suddenly showed impatience, she turned her head and complained, "I said, what's wrong with you?" ”
Chu Qingxiao was also a little crying and laughing, and also turned his head to look at Wang Che.
But this time, when the two of them saw the scene clearly, they were both stunned.
There.
Wang Che stood in place with a pale face, standing still.
Behind him, at some point, stood a figure wearing black armor and a black iron mask.
The man's figure was tall, like a mountain, and a hand was on Wang Che's shoulder at the moment, and his eyes behind the black iron mask flashed with a fierce light like a beast.
Although that guy was indeed born like a human, the qi that permeated his body made Chu Qingxiao feel that standing in front of him was more like a demon who had come out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood......
That feeling was so strong that Chu Qingxiao's soul began to tremble.
Chu Zhaozhao was a cultivator after all, although she was also stunned by the guy who suddenly appeared.
But the next moment, she came to her senses.
"Be careful!" She shouted, her body suddenly stepped forward, one hand stretched out and grabbed Wang Che's arm, pulled it hard, pulling the other party's body behind her, and at the same time, with the other hand, slapped out with one palm, directly attacking the face of the black armor.
Clang!
Hearing only a muffled sound, Chu Zhaozhao's face suddenly became extremely pale.
The cultivation of the Three Realms blasted out with all her palm, and landed on the iron armor, but the other party's body did not move at all, but her palm was shocked by the reaction force from the iron armor, and her body also withdrew a few steps.
Chu Qingxiao also stepped forward at this time to catch Wang Che who was thrown by Chu Zhaozhao, and at the same time saw the scene of Chu Zhaozhao's defeat and retreat.
"Help! What a daze! Chu Zhaozhao said loudly at this time.
"Ah...... Oh! Chu Qingxiao also reacted when he heard this.
He took a deep breath, overcame the fear surging in his heart, threw the frightened Wang Che aside, and rushed forward with his fists clenched.
But just rushed to the armor soldier, one of the other party's hands suddenly stretched out, and before Chu Qingxiao's fist slammed in, he grabbed Chu Qingxiao's neck and lifted his body like a chicken.
Chu Qingxiao's defeat was something Chu Zhaozhao expected.
She took advantage of the attention of the black armor and was attracted to the back of the black armor.
If the enemy is not noticed, it can be won.
She thought back to the teachings of the sect, and her eyebrows sank, and the strength of her whole body sank into the palm of her hand, and she slammed it towards the back of the armorer.
At this moment, the empty door behind the black armor was wide open, and Chu Zhaozhao felt that he was determined to win this blow.
Seeing that this palm was getting closer and closer to the black armor's vest, the corners of Chu Zhaozhao's mouth also unconsciously rose a little.
But at this moment, the body of the black armor suddenly turned around, and one hand was raised.
Clang!
There was another muffled thud.
This palm landed on the bracer of the black armor.
Chu Zhaozhao obviously didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so fast, her eyes widened and she was full of horror.
But the other party didn't give her a chance to think about it at all, and with a twist of her wrist, she stepped forward, and the hand immediately stretched out, also pinching Chu Zhaozhao's neck.
She and Chu Qingxiao were both mentioned by the other party at this time.
Naturally, the two of them were not willing to be restrained, and they both struggled to get rid of this bondage, but the black armor's hand was like a cast of iron, and no matter how hard they could, it was difficult for them to make their situation any better.
"Didn't you say that you were a master disciple of the Heavenly Hanging Mountain? Why can't you even beat a caretaker! Chu Qingxiao struggled to no avail, looked sideways at Chu Zhaozhao, and asked loudly.
"This guy is weird, the armor on his body is wrong!" Chu Zhaozhao, who was pinched by the neck, responded a little unconvinced: "Besides, what's wrong with the high apprentice, the high apprentice can't have a time when he is not proficient in learning?" ”
Chu Zhaozhao complained halfway, but he felt that something was wrong, and looked sideways not far away.
There, the eldest young master stood in place in shock, looking at the two people who were lifted by the black armor.
"Help! Aren't you a master disciple of Biyun City? She yelled.
Chu Qingxiao: "......"
"Huh?" Wang Che's body trembled, as if he had just woken up from a dream.
He looked at the tall and angry black armor, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, took a step, and took it back the next moment......
"What are you afraid of! He's holding us with two hands, and he can stretch out your three hands!? When Chu Zhaozhao saw Wang Che like this, he immediately became angry and shouted loudly.
Wang Dagongzi's face flushed, he took another deep breath, and finally mustered up his courage.
He looked around, and then picked up a stone from the ground.
"Ah!!h
I only heard him roar, and even used his strength to rush straight towards the black armor.
His eyes were round, his face flushed, and he held the stone high with both hands, but there was a bit of heroic angry stance.
But just as he rushed to the black armor, he was about to smash the stone held high in his hands into the black armor.
The black armor that was pinching the necks of Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao suddenly turned his head and looked directly at Wang Che.
The eyes behind his black iron mask burst open with blood at that moment.
The moment Wang Che's eyes touched the bloody light, a fear from the depths of his soul spread.
As if he had seen a terrifying picture, his body trembled, his charging footsteps stopped, and the stone he was holding in his hand fell to the ground suddenly.
The next moment, as if the strength of his body had been drained, he sat down on the ground with a pale face......
