18. Lonely and courageous

The path around him became narrower and narrower, and a chill hit the deep hole, and Chu Ning escorted the man all the way forward.

"How long is it before you get out, if you lie to me, I'll turn you into a pool of blood!" Chu Ning became more and more uneasy the more he walked, he could escape by himself, but he couldn't save those children, he escaped by himself, what was it?

"The adults and the little ones didn't lie to you, follow this path, and you can go out in half an hour," the man said weakly.

"Good!"

Chu Ning directly knocked the man unconscious with a slap of the sword, dragging him too slowly, "If it weren't for the Soul Shifting Dafa being too bothered, I would have read your memory a long time ago!" ”。

Chu Ning thought that it was better to explore the path by himself first, if the man lied and deceived him, he would have to be served by the Soul Transfer Dafa when he came back!

In the cold and damp path, Chu Ning used his hands and feet at the same time, and crawled out through an extremely narrow hole road.

"Huh... Whew..."Chu Ning finally came out, taking a big breath of the fresh air outside, it really felt like he was reborn after the catastrophe.

"Who!?" Chu Ning noticed something unusual under the dense trees in front of him, and felt that it was a person.

The trees shook even more, "I want to run!" Chu Ning flew over and held the knife in his hand, kill!

A palm wind shot out of the woods, "So weak? "Finding that the cultivation of the person who came was low, it was estimated that it was only the peak of the day after tomorrow, and Chu Ning immediately kicked it over.

"Bang" came and was kicked directly on the tree, and the powerful force made the tree directly broken by him, he snorted and swallowed a mouthful of blood directly!

Only then did Chu Ning see the appearance of the person who came, an old man of fifty or sixty years old, dressed neatly in some tattered armor, with a spear at his feet, his face was extremely tired, as if he had traveled a long way, his eyes were resolute and unyielding, and the expression on his face was fearless, just staring at Chu Ning fiercely.

Even if Chu Ning could kill him at any time now, or torture him in an even more cruel way, the old man would not blink his eyes, let alone beg for mercy.

Chu Ning's intuition has always been very accurate, and intuition is sometimes the guess that is closest to the truth!

"You are not Elder Jin's person, who are you and what are you here to catch?" Chu Ning was a little hairy by his eyes, and subconsciously dodged, this has nothing to do with the strength of his personal cultivation, it is just something inside this person, which shocked Chu Ning.

Chu Ning looked at the old man and thought of a sentence in his mind: Some people, he can only die standing up, and it is impossible to live on his knees!

"I'm not a demon cult, I'm here to be a human!" Chu Ning finally reported himself to his family, like the old man said, because he knew that if the old man was unwilling to say it, even death in this world would not threaten the old man.

"Huh? So who are you? The old man looked at Chu Ning, who was originally dressed in white, but now he was also muddy, and there was even some mud on his face, looking calm, which was very different from the demon sect demons.

"Okay, respecting the old and loving the young is my Chu Ning's good character in life, let me tell you, I am the inspector of the Great Qin Town Demon Division, and I was ordered to investigate the disappearance of the child. Now tell me who you are. Chu Ning said and threw the token of the Demon Suppression Division's patrol envoy to the old man.

The old man took the token in his hand and looked at it carefully, the expression on his face eased a lot, but he still looked guarded.

"Wei Lie, what's wrong with you?" A mighty and deep voice came, the trees rustled, and several figures approached from within.

"Brother Xiao, I'm here!" The old man got up from the ground with difficulty and said.

This is Chu Ning who saw clearly, there are two people who came, one on the left and one on the right to support Wei Lie's old man, they are all old men who are not sixty years old, wearing the same armor, and they are also old traces, some places that were originally iron armor were sewn up with linen because the armor pieces fell off, but it did not affect the appearance of majesty and perseverance at all!

"This is..."Chu Ning probably guessed it, this is a group of veterans!

"You dare to hurt my brother, Lao Tzu slaughtered you!" At this time, one of the old men with a black face said angrily, raising the big axe in his hand and was about to kill.

"Table Ran, come back!" One of the old men, he was the most majestic, and he scolded with a dark face.

"Brother Xiao, he said that he was the inspector of the Demon Suppression Division, who came to save the arrested children." The old man, Wei Lie, gave the token of the Demon Suppression Division to one of them.

In the interval, Chu Ning looked at the three of them, the leader of them was only in the early stage of congenitalization, and the other two were just acquired.

"This lord, is it really from the Demon Suppression Division?" The old man at the head said.

"I'm not only from the Demon Suppression Division, but I'm also here to save people!" Chu Ning said angrily.

The old man led by meticulously walked the military steps, came to Chu Ning, and respectfully returned the token to Chu Ning with both hands.

"Five of our brothers joined the army a few years ago, because the grade was older and returned to their hometowns, it is 1,300 miles away from here Lehua Village, a month ago, the children of several villages around us were taken away, our brothers tracked down all the way here, there are many people who do not know how to offend the driver, and I hope to forgive the sin!" The old man said and bowed to Chu Ning.

This made Chu Ning a little embarrassed, feeling a little embarrassed, and his old face turned red and couldn't help but sigh: It's really that the veteran doesn't die, he just withers! The faith is still there, protect the family and defend the country, and there will be no regrets in death!

"Old general, it's serious, but I'm clumsy, I didn't see the injury to General Wei, I have the pill here, take the pill to heal the injury, I'm worried that no one will help." Chu Ning said that he changed from the Xuanqi Creation Bead and picked a bottle of elixir to come out, or the best bottle!

When these veterans were enjoying their old age, the spirit of pursuing them for thousands of miles regardless of their wrecked bodies deeply shocked him!

"This, isn't it too precious, I'm a rough person, I can't use such a good elixir." The old man at the head looked at the screen of pills in his hand, he knew the preciousness of these pills, so he refused, and was ready to return the medicine bottle to Chu Ning.

Seeing that they were exhausted one by one, their eyes were bloodshot, Chu Ning was also very moved in his heart, and then said, "This is an extraordinary moment, old general, don't shirk, I still have business to discuss with the old general." ”

"Then I will accept the love of my lord, and I will thank you for giving me medicine." As he spoke, he gave Wei Lie the medicine.

Wei Lie's face was red after taking the pill, and the power of the medicine overflowed in his body, and the recovery was in his body, "Brother Xiao, I.. I feel like I'm going to break through," he said, sitting cross-legged and pranayama.

"I don't know, how many people are here this time?" Chu Ning asked him.

"Lord Chu, how can we be called generals, the old man Xiao Yuan, once served as a centurion. There are five of us, and the other two brothers have gone their separate ways," Captain Xiao Baili said and pointed to the other two, "This is Wang Zhuoran, the sword and axeman, and the other is Wei Lie, the spearman." ”

"I have found the group of children who were captured, not only from your village, but also from other places, a total of hundreds, and they have all been rescued!" Chu Ning said firmly.

"That's natural, please arrange it for Lord Chu." Saying that, Centurion Xiao arched his hand to Chu Ning.

"In this way, Captain Xiao, you first send someone to send my Demon Suppression Commander card to Bingzhou City, and go to the City Lord's Mansion for help." Chu Ning said and handed the token to Centurion Xiao.

Saying that, Captain Xiao Baili took Chu Ning's token, and a long song like a bird's call was transmitted to all directions, and it didn't take long for a long song like a bird's song to respond to him, and then two more people came from the woods.

The two men were also fifty or sixty years old, dressed in the same armor, their lips were thirsty, and they were slightly cracked, and they were obviously very tired, one of them had a bow and a crossbow in his hand, and the other had a long knife at his waist.

"This is the crossbowman Cheng Yurong, this is Liu Yujun, the commander of the infantry." As he spoke, Centurion Xiao introduced the two to Chu Ning.

"This is Chu Ning, the inspector of the Demon Suppression Division, Lord Chu, he is also here to track down the missing child."

"Lord Chu, it's polite."

"I've seen both."

Chu Ning looked at the five veterans in front of him, although their highest cultivation was only innate, there were also a few people who were at the peak of the day after tomorrow, giving people a never-say-die spirit! All of them were old and haggard, wearing tattered battle armor on their bodies, and holding ordinary weapons in their hands, but Chu Ning saw from them the determination of thousands of people, and the momentum of swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger!

Chu Ning hurriedly took out another bottle of pills from the Xuanqi Creation Bead, afraid that it would be too late to be swallowed by the Creation Bead, and said, "There are some pills here, a few people who have traveled thousands of miles to chase the murderer are really tired, so we have a little physical strength, we still have a tough battle to fight next." ”

Several veterans took the pill, and they didn't drag it out, they took it one after another, and the look on their faces also recovered.

"Liu Shichang, your leg work is better, you go to the City Lord's Mansion for help, and I will stay and help Lord Chu." As he spoke, Captain Xiao gave the token to the veteran with a long knife at his waist.

Liu Yujun, the commander of the infantry, took the token, hugged his fists, turned around and disappeared into the woods.

"A few come with me, there are too many children, and there are more people to take care of in life." Chu Ning said and took a few veterans down the path and went in.

Chu Ning and a few others hurried all the way, and it didn't take long to find the prison where the children were held.

At this time, several of the children hurriedly stood up and cried excitedly at the door of the cell, one of the eldest little girls, about eight or nine years old, with a maturity and steadiness on her face that did not match her grade, and whispered, "Grandpa Xiao, you came to save us, as well as Grandpa Wei, Grandpa Cheng, Grandpa Wang, I know you are back, I am not afraid, I am not crying, I also take care of my younger brothers and sisters, so that they do not be afraid." ”

"Well, Xiao Chan, you are the most well-behaved and sensible, Grandpa Xiao is late, Grandpa Xiao will help you out immediately," Centurion Xiao's bloodshot eyes were full of tears, and he looked at the skinny little girl full of self-blame.

Chu Ning slashed the lock directly with a voiceless voice, and said, "It's okay, there is Brother Chu here, your name is Xiao Chan, you are so brave, you are a child." ”

"Brother Chu, you are so powerful, you can beat the bad guys, I worship you as a teacher, you accept me as an apprentice, Xiao Chan also has to practice martial arts, and when he grows up, he will also beat the bad guys!" The little girl puffed up as she spoke, and waved her little fist in the air a few times.

"Xiao Zen, don't be rude!" Captain Xiao Baili had long seen that Chu Ning was full of nobility, and he was a master at the peak of his innate nature at a young age, he must be an extraordinary character, how could he be the same as their low-level civilians.

"Grandpa Xiao..."The little girl named Xiaochan felt extremely aggrieved in the scolding, lowered her head, and couldn't stop crying.

"Xiaochan, there are some things you don't understand," Centurion Xiao comforted you as he hugged the little girl tightly in his arms.

"Centurion Xiao, this is serious, such an excellent apprentice is a blessing for me and someone," Chu Ning said and hugged the little girl.

Chu Ning said earnestly, "Live well, I will pass on a word to you today as a teacher, there is no invincible martial arts in this world, only invincible!" Saying that, Chu Ning gave the little girl a bottle of elixir and the sword book of the Nine Flame Candle Dragon.

"If the teacher is still alive, I will pass on the rest to you in the future," said Chu Ning and put the little girl down, because he heard a lot of footsteps coming.

"Several, I'll leave it to you to escort this group of children, and destroy the entrance to the cave when you get out!" Chu Ning said with a resolute face.

"My lord, you come to escort the children, I'll wait for the brothers to stay, Lord Chu, you take them away!" Centurion Xiao looked at a few veteran brothers beside him, they nodded secretly, they didn't want Chu Ning to stay and break off, he was still young, he still had a long way to go, he still had to go to a broader world, he shouldn't just die in this barren mountain and wilderness.

"Hurry up, no one will be able to leave if you don't leave!" Chu Ning let out a loud shout and rushed directly in the direction of the person who came.

"My lord, how do you get out?" Captain Xiao asked worriedly.

Chu Ning's voice slowly floated from a distance.

"Kill it out"!
