The black gas slowly dissipated.

The streets of Wuling City were in ruins.

The black armor that was still like gods and demons all fell to the ground, most of the armor on their bodies was shattered, and the exposed skin was crawling with black lines like poisonous snakes.

The faces of the pedestrians around them were shocked, and they looked at the young man standing in the field, trembling all over, and their faces were pale.

The boy turned around slowly.

Just at a glance, the people didn't have time to see the look on his face.

"Youkai!"

"He's a youkai!"

"Murder! The demons have killed! ”

A scream came out of their mouths, and then the crowd, which was still crowded, pushed and fled in all directions......

Wang Che finally came back to his senses.

He looked at Chu Qingxiao, Chu Qingxiao had returned to his normal appearance at this moment, but the clothes on his body were torn and exposed in the ice and snow.

He looked a little confused.

It doesn't seem to be clear what happened.

Wang Che's mind recalled the appearance of Chu Qingxiao, he was a little timid, but he still mustered up the courage to step forward.

"Blue Sky ......"

He tentatively called out the other party's name.

Chu Qingxiao was stunned, looked back at him, his eyes were full of confusion: "What happened just now?" ”

He asked, as if he didn't remember that everything in front of him was what he had made.

Wang Che almost subconsciously wanted to explain the matter and the plate, but when the words came to his lips, he seemed to have some concerns.

After hesitating, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps at the entrance of the alley.

The nervous two looked back, only to see that in the alley they had just escaped, a group of officials dressed in official mansions were hurrying towards here, and the person at the head was Cao Shugong!

After experiencing the things of Fang Cai, Chu Qingxiao and Wang Che naturally did not dare to have the slightest illusion of these servants.

"Let's go first! I'll talk about it later! Chu Qingxiao, who came back to his senses, shouted to Wang Che.

He quickly stepped forward to Chu Zhaozhao's side and carried the unconscious girl on his back.

Just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly realized that his injured ankle had healed at some point.

This thing was strange, but the footsteps of the officials behind him made him not have time to think about it, and he quickly ran out of the alley in front of him with Chu Zhaozhao on his back.

……

As the head catcher of Wuling City, Cao Shugong is somewhat bad.

Originally, in the past few months, the county order, which had always been dissatisfied with his one-sided style, suddenly changed the direction of the wind.

The cold eyebrows in the past have now changed to a smiling face.

His expenses for servitude were cut several times, and the cost of his servants was also greatly increased, allowing him to recruit more men.

Several major cases that have been backlogged for a long time have also been revealed, and they have been solved one by one surprisingly smoothly.

His career is about to be smooth sailing, and he will be on the rise.

But early this morning, he received such a case - his friend, who was also the son of a former colleague, was involved in a homicide case.

Also involved are a foreign girl and the son of Wang Dagui, the richest man in the city.

This case is very strange.

Chu Qingxiao's personality he knows, that child has always been kind, and he had a good stroke in this Wuling City before the onset of the disease.

said that he was sick and hurt people, Cao Shugong may be able to believe it, but he can't be sure of the harm to people's lives.

And Wang Dagui's son Wang Che, who is the premier noble son in Wuling City, although he is very happy on weekdays and has made some publicity, he has never done anything hurtful to the heavens and reason.

Besides, with his family affairs, if he doesn't have anything, how can he do something that steals and harms people's lives?

He originally intended to ask about the case, but the county order's attitude was extremely resolute, and he was ordered to arrest Chu Qingxiao immediately.

In desperation, he could only do it.

I wanted to find Chu Qingxiao and the others first and then find out the truth of the matter, but Chu Qingxiao and the others were extremely resistant, and the girl who accompanied him was extraordinary, so he didn't notice it, and actually let her escape.

Things were getting trickier, and he didn't know how to explain it to his old buddy for a while.

I could only hurriedly lead people to search in the city, and when I came to the vicinity of Wuyi Lane, I suddenly heard the sound of fighting.

He didn't dare to delay, so he rushed to the county seat with his men and horses as soon as possible.

But when he walked to the scene, he didn't see any trace of Chu Qingxiao and others, but there were several black armors lying on the ground, which made Cao Shugong's face look different.

"My lord, it seems to be the Zhu family's nursing home."

A servant next to him stepped forward to check it out, and at a glance, he recognized the identity of the other party from the clothes of the black armor.

Then a few more people stepped forward to help the black armor up and probe the injuries.

"Dead?" Cao Shugong also stepped forward and asked.

One of the officials nodded, and replied with a somewhat dull voice, "...... dead."

Cao Shugong was silent, but his eyes fell on a black iron mask on the ground not far away, he stepped forward to pick it up, his eyes stared at the mask tightly, and his brows gradually furrowed.

"What's the problem? My lord. A servant leaned forward and asked.

Cao Shugong shook his head and was about to say something, but he looked sideways at the black armor on the other side who was turned over by the officials.

The breastplate in front of the black armor shattered, revealing the skin underneath, and on that skin, there were strange black lines running vertically and horizontally.

It was as if there was some kind of magic power, and Cao Shugong's gaze was drawn by that thing, and he couldn't pull his gaze away for a while.

"This is ......" He stepped forward, staring at the black lines on Black Armor's body with a strange look on his face.

"My lord, what's wrong?" The official on the side noticed his abnormality and stepped forward to ask.

Cao Shugong was silent for a while, and then muttered: "Don't you think, this pattern is a little familiar? ”

When the surrounding officials heard this, they all walked over, some shook their heads, indicating that they were not impressed, but some fell into silence like Cao Shugong, and their brows were tightly locked.

At this time, several more officials approached and said to Uncle Cao: "My lord, I asked some of the surrounding people, and many of them said that they saw Chu Qingxiao kill these Zhu family guards with demon methods, and this street was also destroyed by Chu Qingxiao. ”

Hearing this, Cao Shugong looked up at the street in front of him.

Several houses on both sides collapsed, and large areas of bluestone slabs on the ground were blown away, falling all over the streets, and they were full of chaos.

"Chu Qingxiao has this ability?" He frowned and muttered.

From hearing the sound of the fight to arriving here, it took less than 100 breaths to go back and forth.

Chu Qingxiao was able to destroy the street like this in such a short period of time, at least he had to have five or even six realms of cultivation.

If memory serves, he's only eighteen years old.

If he had such a cultivation, it should not have been Zhao Nianshuang who was taken to Tianhang Mountain, but he should have been Chu Qingxiao.

Cao Shugong thought about this, his heart was full of doubts, but his brain also hurt terribly.

The strangeness of the matter has exceeded his cognition, and he has never encountered such a thing after decades of head-hunting experience.

"My lord! This person seems to be angry! Just when he secretly felt a headache, a servant suddenly pointed to the Zhu family nursing home in front of him and shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Cao Shugong hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and gently sensed the tip of the other party's nose, and indeed felt a little weak breathing.

"Bring it back, let people heal, and these corpses, bring it back too!" He commanded immediately.

When the surrounding officials heard the sound, two people stepped forward quickly, carefully lifting the still breathing courtyard.

At this time, Cao Shugong seemed to think of something again, grabbed one of them, and said in a low voice: "Don't spread the news of the one he is alive, especially the county order." ”

"Secretly find someone to heal."

……

Chu Qingxiao gasped and ran through the dim alley.

On his back, the girl seemed to fall into a deep sleep, her eyes closed.

But in the hanging arm, blood continued to drip down the cuffs.

She had been injured so much that Chu Qingxiao couldn't pinpoint where the blood was gushing from.

He ran far away, and after making sure that no one was chasing behind him, he finally stopped, and he put Chu Zhaozhao in the corner of the wall and looked down to check the injuries on her body.

Her breathing was weak, and her body was bleeding from countless wounds, large and small.

"If this continues, she will die, we have to find a Langzhong." Chu Qingxiao said with a frown.

After saying this, he looked sideways at Wang Che beside him.

found that Wang Che was standing in place in a daze, and did not react to what he said.

Since entering the Zhu family's compound, Wang Che has often been like this.

"Brother Wang? Brother Wang! Chu Qingxiao called.

Hearing this, Wang Che seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and he looked at Chu Qingxiao in a trance.

"What's wrong with you?" Chu Qingxiao asked.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing ......," Wang Che said.

"We have to find a man, if this continues, Miss Chu may be worried about her life." Chu Qingxiao knew that Wang Che didn't listen to his previous words at all, so he repeated it again.

Wang Che smiled bitterly when he heard this: "You also saw the situation just now, now the entire Wuling City treats us as street rats, murderers, looking for Langzhong, it is estimated that before the person can be saved, we will be arrested in the government first." ”

"Then look for it too!" Chu Qingxiao said, his expression and attitude were extremely resolute, so he helped Chu Zhaozhao up from the ground again, put it on his back, and was about to take a step.

Seeing this, Wang Che suddenly called Chu Qingxiao: "Qingxiao ......"

"What's wrong?" Chu Qingxiao couldn't help but ask when he saw that he wanted to speak and stopped.

"I'm thinking about ......"

"Maybe ......" Wang Che hesitated, he was silent for a while, and then gritted his teeth and said, "We can leave these things alone......"

"Just like those people, even when we don't know anything, don't you look at them, don't they also live well?"

Chu Qingxiao was stunned when he heard this, and he looked at Wang Che: "But we know the truth." ”

"That'...... So what? ”

"Those black armor are just puppets, but there are only a few of them, we almost died, they must have more powerful guys, we can't change anything at all," Wang Che retorted, his face turned a little red at this time, but he didn't know whether it was because ......of shame or annoyance.

Chu Qingxiao saw that Wang Che's words were not a whim, and he stopped to look at the other party: "Brother Wang." You haven't seen the picture in my memory! ”

"These candles are brutal, they have imprisoned us here, stripped us of our memories, they must have a more evil purpose!"

"Sitting back and waiting will only make things worse."

"We want to unlock this secret, not only for the people of Wuling City, but also for ourselves!"

"But ......," Wang Che looked sick, "but if we unlock the secret, can we be saved, and everything will be better?" ”

"Of course! Do you want to be trapped in this Wuling City forever? ”

"Have you forgotten to read the frost? Don't you want to go to Tianhang Mountain to find her? When the time comes, let's go together! ”

"Don't think about it, we'll find a way." Chu Qingxiao said with relief.

Wang Che obviously wanted to stop talking when he heard this, but Chu Zhaozhao's situation was not optimistic, and Chu Qingxiao did not dare to delay.

"I thought that maybe someone might be willing to help us, Brother Wang, everything will be said after ensuring Miss Chu's safety first?" Chu Qingxiao said again.

Having said that, Wang Che couldn't say anything more after all.

He nodded silently.

Chu Qingxiao, who received Wang Che's response, smiled, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, then turned around and walked quickly towards the other end of the alley.

Wang Che stood in place, looking at Chu Qingxiao's departing back, and the scene in the Zhu family's compound came to mind.

At that time, he held the stone in his hand and rushed towards the black armor, and the black armor turned around, and the fierce light in his eyes shot into his eyes.

At that moment, certain memories broke through the shackles and flashed through his mind.

He saw the battlefield where the Yin Beasts were rushing.

He joined many others in slaying before the tide of beasts.

They are united.

They are brave and fearless.

But it didn't work.

In front of the powerful Yin Beasts, they are just clay figures that can be shattered at the touch of a button.

He watched as his companions were torn apart one by one by the Yin Beast.

Liu Yu, Cui Quan, Long Baiqu, Xu Anyuan......

Then, it was his turn.

He was on his way to rescue the trapped Long Baiqu.

was suddenly killed by a yin beast that bit off his left arm.

The pain caused him to let out a wail, and he raised his sword to slash.

But then another Yin Beast came out from the right side and bit his right arm.

Then more Yin beasts came in, and he struggled hard.

But there were too many of the Yin Beasts, so they surrounded him and drowned him.

They bite off his feet, tear open his chest, and gnaw on his internal organs.

That's so real.

It's as real as if it just happened.

He was sure that this was not a strange illusion, nor was it a demonic conjecture.

He felt that was what was really happening to him.

But if that's true.

And who ......

Can be bitten off limbs, torn open chest, and gnawed off internal organs......

Are you still alive?
