[Option 3]

[Go to the previously discovered thorn depression]

……

This thorny depression is most familiar to me.

The other enemies are either skilled or scheming. Although Zheng Zhuo has internal and external strength, the pain of ten thousand ants devouring his heart makes his movements possible to deform at any time. He had no doubt that he would suddenly fall unconscious at some critical moment.

Although he was uneasy about whether Guo Liang would be able to deal with the environment of the thorny depression, Zheng Zhuo still had to take a risk.

There, at least, he knew that the worst would be to be pierced into a hedgehog. As for other places, it's hard to say.

There was a series of bangs.

Zheng Zhuo threw out the branch that was broken by Guo Liang. He was at a loss for his head, and some branches fell too close, others too far.

But it's generally in the direction of the thorn depression.

Guo Liang turned his head slightly. Attracted by the sound of the branches, he slowly began to move towards the thorn depression.

(Although this [Brain Gu] is powerful in martial arts, it comes at the cost of destroying the brain, and other aspects are very simple.) Seeing Guo Liang act like this, Zheng Zhuo couldn't help but think, "(Whoever hits him, he will hit whomever he wants.) A little movement, I just want to see, no different from animals. )”

If there is anything else worth noting, it is that Guo Liang still has a great attachment to the [Guiyi Sutra]. Considering that Mother-in-law Wuhua once said that "the body is not all controlled by yourself", that is, Guo Liang's own will can still be reflected in the movements of his body.

It's just that now, the [Guiyi Sutra] was hidden by Zheng Zhuo in his personal soft bag, Guo Liang couldn't see it, and he really didn't know where the scriptures went.

(Thinking is still hindered.) )”

Zheng Zhuo felt that his thinking speed had been affected by the pain caused by the [Heart Gu], and it had become very slow. In this way, the influence of [Brain Gu] was far more than a hundred times that of him.

(Terrible.) )”

Zheng Zhuo thought while chasing. He and Guo Liang, who was carrying Xiang Renjie, both ran fast, and in a blink of an eye, the thorny depression appeared in front of them.

Good.

Zheng Zhuo turned his palm into a palm, slashed at the trees on the side, broke a branch, and threw it far into the thorns.

Hearing only the sound of the wind "whoosh", Guo Liang did not hesitate, and then jumped in and kicked at the position where the branch fell.

The results were unsurprising. The thorns have no likes or dislikes, and pierce the skin of every offender equally.

Guo Liang used great force, and when he fell, he shattered a lot of thorns, however, he couldn't bear the layers of thorns in this depression, which were too lush, and there were still many piercing into his body.

It's just that Guo Liang seems to have lost his sense of pain. Undeniably fast, he spun around the thorn bushes, looking for enemies that had yet to be captured.

It turned out that he practiced the external skill [Breathless Gong], and he could endure several times more pain than ordinary people, and he was not afraid of pain.

This exercise is the culmination of the retreat of the ancestor of the Huashan School for several years. The original intention is to allow the person who has learned this skill to temporarily lose his sense of pain when facing the enemy, and after being injured, he can still be as brave as before, and exchange a small injury for the opponent's head.

It's just that now that this [Brain Gu] has been used, I don't know if the situation has gotten better or worse.

Guo Liang has no understanding of his situation. He walked about, slashing away the thorns with his sword, ignoring the thorns on his body.

He began to ache and bleed, but only a little doubt. This doubt made him more convinced that there was an enemy around him, so he became more vigilant.

This is bitter for Xiang Renjie, who hugged his head and face. Guo Liang was wary of the enemy around him, and it was a good thing to give up grabbing him from his face for the time being. But he was also in this thorny bush, and he was inevitably stabbed all over his body.

Xiang Renjie wanted to use his [Golden Bell Jar] exercises, but he had seen how powerful Guo Liang was, and he was afraid that Guo Liang would learn it after watching it, and he wouldn't be able to hurt him, so he didn't say a word.

Just when Xiang Renjie was stabbed in unbearable pain, there was a soft sound from behind.

Xiang Renjie turned his head to look. It turned out that Zheng Zhuo parted the thorns and appeared far behind.

It was Zheng Zhuo's [Liuyun Gong] Dacheng, and entering this thorny depression was like entering a no-man's land, and he soon caught up with Guo Liang.

"Uncle Xiang!"

Zheng Zhuo whispered and handed out an oiled paper bag. The oil-paper bag had been opened at one end, and it was faintly visible that there was a scripture book in it.

"Take this book quickly......

He didn't finish speaking.

"Roar!"

"What!?"

That Guo Liang's senses are extremely sharp! Zheng Zhuo had only barely stepped within ten steps of him when he turned his head sharply and lunged towards Zheng Zhuo.

Zheng Zhuo had no choice but to pick up the [Liuyun Gong], retreat backwards, and leave far away.

He didn't want Guo Liang to keep in touch with him. He was also afraid that Guo Liang would learn [Liuyun Gong].

(Wait until he loses all his strength from the thorns?) He thought, "(That can only pray that Xiang Renjie will not lose consciousness before Guo Liang loses his strength, or be killed by Guo Liang...... )”

It's too risky.

Zheng Zhuo still plans to make as much contact as possible.

After all, as long as Xiang Renjie touches the [Guiyi Sutra]......

That's when it happened.

Behind him was the sound of the wind again.

Immediately after, the heavy iron weapon swung down towards Zheng Zhuo.

Zheng Zhuo was shocked. He urged [Light Smoke Step] to dodge sideways, and the steel cane knocked a large hole in his original position.

Silently, without the slightest exposure of internal strength.

The one who came is also the great achievement of [Liuyun Gong].

He looked behind him.

Gray hair, with a slumped back.

The figure that appeared in the thorns was the five-flower mother-in-law!

……

Mother-in-law of Five Flowers is chasing after her! I saw her smile sadly and said, "You kid, you hide quite fast." ”

Are you here to get us all back?

At this time, you can't be disturbed by this old woman!

Zheng Zhuo took a step at the moment and walked around Guo Liang and Xiang Renjie.

He wanted to lure Granny Wuhua to the vicinity of the two. If Granny Wuhua could catch the two of them first, he would be able to catch the gap and hand the [Gui Yi Jing] to Xiang Renjie.

However.

"What's going on......"

He went around and around, sweating on his forehead, but he couldn't get rid of the five-flower mother-in-law.

Mother-in-law Wuhua seemed to be keeping an eye on him, walking behind her back in a hurry, but she couldn't get rid of it no matter what. Zheng Zhuo used [Taiqing Gangqi] to urge the [Light Smoke Step], and counted a few feet in one step. But this [light smoke step] is the mastery of Granny Five-flower, and it is all in his grasp in the direction and intention of moving forward.

After another failed escape, Granny Gohwa grinned.

"I didn't expect that the [Guiyi Sutra] that I couldn't find was stolen by the kid from Huashan. Thanks for finding out...... Now return the Oneness Sutra. ”

Unexpectedly, this is the intention.

Zheng Zhuo was stunned.

This old woman said that she would give the scriptures to the victor, but she was really lying! This time the scriptures appeared, but I didn't read the game, so I wanted to take the scriptures.

"Can you ......?"

Zheng Zhuo was about to refuse, when a voice suddenly came out of his head.

"I'm done, you're not done yet, are you? I see there's someone near you, do you want to help? ”

It was the voice of [Clown] Fu Xi.

(It's really a good time.) )”

Zheng Zhuo smiled bitterly in his heart.

Someone, I'm talking about a dumb beggar. He was slashed by Guo Liang, and now he hasn't appeared, so he should have fainted.

(Come on.) )”

Zheng Zhuo said in his heart. He looked ahead again.

There will be a turnaround soon. He had to delay the old woman first.
