Chapter 105: Dark Night (Five Watches)
Xia Jiang came to this dead forest and was about to enter, but suddenly felt an extremely dangerous aura, and his eyes suddenly looked towards the center of this dead forest, only to see that there was a large area there without trees, empty, and extremely weird.
But at this moment, he heard the eyes of several people not far away sweeping towards him, as if they were discovering his arrival.
"In this dead forest, there must be unknown strong people, these people have friendly eyes, I just went to learn more about this prison......" Xia Jiang must be in his heart, when he walked in.
Seeing the visitor enter the dry forest, the eyes of several people swept towards him more clearly, and one of them even immediately shouted: "Hello, come in quickly, it's safe here!"
Xia Jiang listened and nodded, but he was attracted by the second half of the sentence, and asked the reason when he came closer.
"We have just come in, you can ask him!" Seeing that Xia Jiang was puzzled, the greeting student hurriedly pointed to a person beside him.
Xia Jiang looked at the man, he was a young man in his thirties, with delicate facial features like a scholar, wearing a pair of treasure glasses, the eyes in the frame were bright, and his cultivation was not low, much higher than the people around him.
"Hello, my name is Ning Yuan. The person who was being watched by Xia Jiang smiled slightly.
Xia Jiang nodded and asked, "I see that this forest is dead, and I feel that there is danger in it, why do you say that it is safe here?"
When several people heard about Xia Jiang's problem, their eyes turned to the middle of the forest, and from this direction, they could see that there was a big pit, a large dry lake.
The young man named Ning Yuan didn't look back, and said: "Every dead forest in this prison has a master in charge, but no one knows who they are, only that they all have a rule, anyone who wants to fight must go outside the woods, otherwise it will ......" Speaking of this, he lifted his glasses and didn't say anything, but his smile immediately retracted.
Naturally, anyone could see his action and language, and couldn't help but look towards the center, at this time he only felt that it was eerie and indescribably terrifying, but because of this, it was so safe here.
"My name is Xia Jiang, and I won't hide it from you, I came here because I was chased. Xia Jiang said, and suddenly got closer to the relationship between several people.
Looking towards the entire forest, you can see that there are many people staying inside, and almost most of them are low in cultivation and weak in physique, and the reason is already obvious.
"Xia Jiang?"
And when he heard Xia Jiang's name, the young man who had greeted him before suddenly widened his eyes and said curiously: "You are the one...... The ...... who was said to be a coward" As he spoke, the young man's face turned red, as if he felt that some words were not very good and he couldn't continue.
Xia Jiang saw through his eyes that this young man was very gentle and kind, but he didn't know how he was locked in, so he nodded and said indifferently: "It's me." ”
"Ah, it's you?" the other boy seemed to be with him, and he was also surprised.
He would rather seem to have been here for a long time, but said curiously: "Xia Jiang, there must be some story here, why don't you tell us about it, it's boring here anyway..."
Seeing that several people wanted to know, Xia Jiang simply described the cause and effect briefly, and then said: "No, I have fulfilled the very few, and I met a person named Erlong, who actually increased his momentum by shouting to catch a thief, so that I came here to be imprisoned for some reason." As he spoke, Xia Jiang smiled bitterly.
The two or three teenagers didn't quite understand Xia Jiang's words, but Ning Yuan helped his glasses and said: "Xia Jiang, don't be surprised, these little ghosts are just like you, they just collided with the law enforcement officers and were locked in, but they are shorter, only ten days in prison." ”
Belch......
As he was talking, Xia Jiang saw that the only one of the three teenagers who did not speak, his expression suddenly felt a little wrong, he turned around to look at his gaze, and suddenly, he saw that the few people who were chasing him also came here.
"Xia Jiang, you were forced here by them, right?" Ning Yuan looked at a few people, but he was very calm.
Xia Jiang nodded, didn't speak, but looked at the few people who chased after him.
"Hey, that kid, you just had a pretty big tone, what's the matter? Are you going to hide there now and not come out?" Outside, beside the leader, a man with a fierce face shouted in a strange voice.
"Xia Jiang, ignore them, they don't dare to come in!" To Xia Jiang's surprise, the teenager closest to him seemed to be bullied by these people, staring at those people in fear and anger.
The boy was right, Xia Jiang looked at those people who chased after them, but kept a distance of two meters from the edge of this dead forest, and seemed to be very afraid of this place.
The young man continued: "If you have something snatched away by them, you can't ask for it, they are simply not human, I heard that I don't know how many people have been planted in their hands, and even secretly killed!"
Hearing this, Xia Jiang saw that the young man's eyes were blood-red, and his eyes turned red, and he couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect that this young man was still a rare high-level bloodline, but now his blood-red eyes were faintly moist, and he was very sad.
"Don't worry, of course I won't go out casually," Xia Jiang couldn't help but sigh as he said: "I, Xia Jiang, originally wanted to be promoted to the seventh or eighth level student within three months, but now that it's good, I was locked up here at the beginning, and my level was also downgraded, but it was a big joke." ”
"Brother doesn't have to be too careful, be cautious when you go out, it's not difficult to get promoted. Ning Yuan on the side was extremely calm, and muttered: "Speaking of which, I will only be able to go out in a few months, and if I meet my friends at that time, it will be a joke......
In the following time, Xia Jiang was indifferent in the face of insults and ridicule outside, and made a complete shrinking turtle, staying in the dead forest to rest and retreat.
In this prison, there is only one paid food supply every day, brought in by five law enforcement officers, the food is not bad, but it is very expensive, and if you don't have money, you will naturally have only one result, starvation. Fortunately, among several people, the newly arrived Xia Jiang had a lot of money on him, but he invited everyone to a big meal like a rainy day.
In the following meditation, the sky gradually darkened, and the surroundings began to chatter with the sound of many whispering discussions, and Xia Jiang was forced to wake up.
"Everyone seems to be very lively, what are they talking about?" Listening to the voice, Xia Jiang knew that everyone seemed to be discussing or planning some action.
"Oh, there's a lake in the middle of this prison, it's a normal area, there are some aquatic beasts in it, you can eat it, and there are even magic weapons in it, and some of them are hungry and want to try their luck sneaking over. Ning Yuan still said indifferently as if he had repeated the topic many times, and then said: "But there are very few people who can benefit from it, if it is useless and it is good to return, many people will disappear the next day after they go." ”
Xia Jiang knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and couldn't help but shake his head, secretly feeling the cruel status quo of this prison.
"So if it's fatal, most of them will stay here honestly, and it will be good to starve. A person walked over not far away, but Ning Yuan's words were on the street.
Xia Jiang looked and found that it was one of the few people who had been closest to them all the time, but at this time, when he looked at the place where he was staying, there was no longer a shadow of the person with him.
"Why, your friends ......" Ning Yuan didn't even turn his head to look at that side, and said with a hint.
The man nodded and didn't elaborate, but Xia Jiang could see from his gaze that he didn't seem to be optimistic about the decisions of his companions.
At this time, Xia Jiang looked out of the woods, and saw that the few people who had been waiting outside to guard him suddenly got up, and it seemed that they were finally about to give up on him.
"They have moved, it seems that they are going to the lake to 'hunt' again!" Ning Yuan's sight was also unexpectedly good, and he immediately saw the movement of those people.
Xia Jiang immediately stood up at this time.
"Brother, don't be impulsive, it's not just their gang that ambushes near the lake every night, there are many of them!" Ning Yuan was a little surprised by Xia Jiang, he actually heard something from the insults of those people during the day, and actually guessed that Xia Jiang, who was quiet on the surface, would act at night.
That's right, Xia Jiang did pretend to be a turtle with a shrunken head, but he just didn't want to be exposed, it would be a hell here at night, and he, naturally, could only do what he wanted at this time!
Originally, he didn't want to kill so much, but after the description of several teenagers and Ning Yuan, he made a decision!
"It's okay, just a few of them, I'll be back as soon as I'm done. Xia Jiang said lightly, and then walked towards the woods without looking back.
Several teenagers looked at Xia Jiang as if he had changed into a different person, and they all gasped and looked at Ning Yuan, but they saw that the other party was silently staring at the back of the distance, and they didn't plan to say anything.
The dark night made the prison even darker, like hell. That's right, it's hell right now, and from this time on, even if someone fights in the area where the law enforcement officers usually walk, no one will come out to care.
After Xia Jiang walked out of the woods, he quickened his pace slightly, his eyes locked on the four almost blurred figures in the darkness, and as his steps accelerated, several backs gradually became clearer.
In contrast, at such a distance, it is difficult to find that there is a person like him in the night.
With his keen sense of sight, smell, hearing, and intuition, Xia Jiang is like a fish in water in this darkness, and with the subtle sensing and absorption of the breeze in the state of demon addiction, his speed has been greatly improved, and he is more like a ghost, floating in the darkness.
As his speed gradually increased, the figures of the men began to become clearer and clearer, and he could almost see half of their faces when they were sometimes alert.
Looking into the distance, Xia Jiang began to see a lake, which was quiet in the darkness, and people couldn't help but feel that some ferocious water beasts were lurking in it.
"Who!"
The four figures slowly approached the lake, then stood still, looked around, but immediately noticed an extremely slight footstep behind them.
