Chapter XIII: Cross-examination
Chu Feng saw the four figures from a distance, although he couldn't see the specific appearance, but with his familiar body shape and clothes, he could also tell that it was Chu Yue and Chu Houping.
After Chu Feng saw these four people, his face showed a touch of joy, he had always been worried about being discovered by Wang Yunxiao's accomplices, but now that Chu Yue was accompanied by the four people, the security could be said to have been greatly improved.
However, Chu Feng hesitated for a moment, and instead of rushing over to meet them immediately, he walked to the bushes not far away, dug a hole in the middle of the bushes, and put a few arrows on his body into it.
The reason why Chu Feng disposed of the arrows was because he was afraid of being discovered by Wang Yunxiao's accomplices, and the reason why he didn't discard them before was because he wanted to stay for self-defense, and now that he saw Chu Yue and the four of them, the security could be said to have been greatly improved, and Chu Feng did not need to leave a disaster.
After Chu sealed the arrows, he once again rushed towards the four of Chu Yue, and when he walked not far from the four of them, he did not deliberately slow down the pace under his feet.
At the same time, Chu Yueliu's eyebrows frowned slightly, looked in the direction of Chu Feng, her red lips opened lightly, and said leisurely: "I don't know which friend is passing by, please show up and see it." ”
"What kind of person is sneaky, come out!" After hearing Chu Yue's reminder, Chu Houping stood up suddenly, followed by a reprimand, and said.
"It's me. Chu Feng responded, strode out of the woods, showed a faint smile on his face, and said, "You shouted so loudly, you can't scare people to death." ”
"Chu Feng, aren't you in retreat and cultivating, how did you come here?" Seeing that the person who came out was Chu Feng, Chu Houping first showed a little joy, and then scratched his head and asked.
"I miss you. Chu Feng said with a smile.
"Chu Feng, congratulations on breaking through to the fifth layer of martial artists. Chu Yue glanced at Chu Feng, with a slight look of surprise on her pretty face, and said.
"What, you broke through!" After hearing Chu Yue's words, Chu Houping reacted and said:
"How can it be so fast? It's ahead of me!"
"Chu Feng, congratulations. Chu Houen and Chu Feng were not familiar with each other, so they just arched their hands and said politely.
"Chu Feng, when did you enter the Lost Forest, and how can the smell of blood on your body be heavier than ours. Chu Qing wrinkled his nose slightly and wondered.
"Yes, you're injured, it's not serious. Seeing the knife marks on Chu Feng's arm, Chu Houping asked with a concerned expression.
"It's okay, it's just a trifle. Chu Feng casually said perfunctorily, and when he saw the four of them barbecuing meat on the fire, he changed the topic and said, "What are you baking? ”
Seeing that Chu Feng was reluctant to say more, everyone didn't deliberately ask, Chu Houping was the closest to Chu Feng, and he also intended to help him change the topic, and scolded with a smile: "You guy, you just have a dog nose, no wonder you can find us." ”
"Since it's a good thing, naturally you have a share in it, so I'm not welcome. Chu Feng laughed, then sat down by the bonfire, grabbed a piece of barbecue and ate it.
Although Chu Feng joined halfway, everyone was a disciple of the Chu family, and they naturally had to unite with each other in the Lost Forest, and no one regarded Chu Feng as an outsider, so Chu Feng quickly integrated into the team.
At this time, the night had already fallen, although Chu Feng had only entered the Lost Forest for two days, but he had experienced two life-and-death battles and was physically and mentally exhausted, and at this time he found his family's companion, and his heart gradually relaxed, and he soon fell asleep.
......
The next morning, the sun shone through the dense branches and leaves on the forest floor, and the five of Chu Feng gradually woke up, ate some leftover barbecue from last night, and began to discuss today's itinerary.
Chu Yue and the four of them have been in the Lost Forest for a few days, and while they have gained a lot, they are also a little tired, and they also have the idea of leaving the Lost Forest, which can be said to coincide with Chu Feng.
Therefore, the five of them walked towards the periphery of the Lost Forest, if they could meet the demon beast, it would be the best, if they could not meet the demon beast, they would go directly back to the Chu family in Pingyang City.
I don't know if it's because the trial of Tianluo Sect is approaching, and more and more people come to the Lost Forest to practice, causing the demon beasts in the Lost Forest to hide, so that Chu Feng and the five people did not find any trace of the demon beasts.
Chu Feng had gained a lot this time, and he didn't have the heart to hunt demon beasts, so he pulled Chu Houping to the back of the most lull and glanced at the arrow on Chu Houping's back, and said:
"Houping, I've run out of arrows, give me a few to defend myself. ”
"It's okay to ask for my arrows, but you have to tell me, what happened to you?" Chu Houping squeezed his eyes and said.
"It's nothing, it's just that I met a porcupine beast and got a little bit of a minor injury. Chu Feng said.
"Nonsense, you kid has wounds on his hands, arms, and legs, how could it be that the porcupine beast was injured. Chu Houping snorted lightly, not believing Chu Feng's excuse at all.
"I'll tell you another day, give me a few arrows first. Chu Feng said.
"Remember what you said, and be sure to tell me when you go back. Chu Houping said as he took out five arrows and handed them to Chu Feng on the side.
"Okay. Chu Feng said casually, grabbed the arrow in his hand, and put it into his quiver.
......
In the afternoon, a group of five people walked out of the Lost Forest and returned to Chu's house from the east gate of Pingyang City.
"What's going on ahead? Could it be that someone is making trouble at the city gate?" Chu Houping looked at the direction of the city gate and wondered.
"Don't worry about him, let's go. Chu Yue said lightly, as if she was unmoved by the situation in front of her.
A strange color flashed in Chu Feng's eyes, and then he looked at the city gate carefully, and found that there were some people in white robes, who seemed to be interrogating and searching passers-by, which couldn't help but make him a little nervous.
Sure enough, when the group of five people walked to the city gate, a man in a white robe walked up to the five people and bowed his hand and said, "Everyone, please wait a minute, we have something to ask." ”
"Who are you?" Chu Houping stood up and asked rhetorically.
"My name is Wang Yunkun, and I am a disciple of the Wang family in Pingyang City, and I want to ask for advice. The man in the white robe arched his hand and said.
"If there's anything, just say it. Chu Yue walked over from behind and said.
"Yesterday, three disciples of our Wang family were brutally killed in the Lost Forest, and the murderers should have been done by one or two people, and I want to ask you about some information. Wang Yunkun said.
"Does the murderer have any characteristics?" Chu Yue asked.
"Judging from the wounds on the bodies of the three disciples, the murderer should be able to use bows and arrows, and he is good at using palm techniques, and his cultivation is between the sixth layer of the martial artist and the seventh layer of the martial artist. Wang Yunkun said.
After hearing Wang Yunkun's words, Chu Yue didn't think much about it at first, but as Wang Yunkun continued to describe, he gradually thought of Chu Feng's figure, whether it was timing, good shooting, or palm technique, it was completely consistent with Chu Feng's situation.
However, what made Chu Yue a little puzzled was that the disciples of the Wang family who could enter the Lost Forest for training should not be very weak in cultivation and strength, how could Chu Feng be able to kill three people and still be safe and sound!
"I'm sorry, but we haven't met anyone you described in the Lost Forest. Chu Houping waved his hand and said in his throat.
"Yes, please get out of the way, we're going into town. Chu Yue also echoed.
"I'm sorry, because this matter is very important, I hope you can cooperate, let's search the package we have with us!" Wang Yunkun bowed, but his tone was unquestionable.
