Scenery of the North Chapter 52 On Your Own
Yunzhou slowly descended to Peicheng, and Lu An and the others had already packed their bags and were ready to leave.
However, several people walked at the end of each other, and did not leave prematurely, so as not to attract attention.
In the evening, it was not until it was almost dark that several people cautiously walked down from the cloud boat.
As soon as I got off the cloud boat, I found that there were not many people near this cloud platform, only a few scattered things, and I saw Lu An and a few people were puzzled, and there was nothing else unusual, Peicheng's cloud platform was built temporarily, there was no cloud platform here before, and the cloud boat was directly to Yuanmou City, so the location of this temporary cloud platform was a little remote, similar to the craftsman city, and there was still some distance from Peicheng.
Moreover, the Yunzhou will not restart until the next day, so the vicinity of the Yuntai is particularly deserted at this moment.
After Yu Wenchuan looked around, he breathed a big sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, it's okay, no one is staring at us." ”
Li Qing also nodded reassuringly.
But Lu An was still a little puzzled in his heart, these 1,000 spirit crystals were really so worthless, and no one cared?
With this doubt in his arms, Lu An began to walk towards Peicheng.
Not long after Lu An and the others left, four more people came down from the cloud boat, and Zuo Sheng looked coldly at the direction where Lu An and the others had gone.
"If it weren't for Brother Zuo's foresight, we might have really let this group of fat sheep run away. A one-eyed man said.
"One-eyed dragon, don't shoot the sycophants, let's use your broken knife to cut down those teenagers diligently. An old man laughed.
The one-eyed dragon smiled and replied, "It's a trivial matter, these teenagers probably can't bear my knife, just leave it all to me." ”
A strong man full of horizontal meat beside him patted the old Taoist priest and said, "When the time comes, remember to set up a formation first, otherwise if you kill two and run three, I won't be able to spare you." ”
The old Taoist sneered, "Don't worry, dead fat pig, I'm not you, keep them and they won't be able to get out." ”
Zuo Sheng listened to the conversation of several people, and observed the surroundings cautiously by the way, thanks to the cautiousness of those teenagers, there should be no one else to grab this meat with him now, right? But be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, for the three helpers on the side, Zuo Sheng is actually very disgusted, a one-eyed dragon, a four-grade martial artist, nothing, only a lifetime of brute strength, and especially like girls, before in the original place did a lot of things, I really can't stay, so I can only run out of the rivers and lakes, and on the way I was blinded by someone else, so I have an unusual dislike for sword cultivation.
That old Taoist priest is a ghost cultivator, or a formation master, it is quite useful to say, but he is old, and he is only a jade realm, and it is estimated that this life is like this, if he is lucky, he can still use spirit crystals to smash out a cave heaven realm, but it is a little unrealistic to think about it.
The last fat pig turned out to be a monk in the Puyu Realm, according to his own words, he was a beautiful man with a good demeanor when he was young, and as a result, he fell into the way of a woman, and then the whole person changed, eating raw meat all day long.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these people are simply a template of evil demons and crooked ways, if it weren't for the reason, Zuo Sheng wouldn't be with them anyway, although what they did was not very glorious, but it was still much better than them. Among these three people, Zuo Sheng's most taboo is the old Taoist, age, experience, and the way of ghost arts, these are all aspects that Zuo Sheng taboos, although he is the highest realm among several people, but he doesn't dare to take it lightly, black eats black, and no one has done the same.
After listening to the small talk of several people, after making sure that there was no one else around, Zuo Sheng said: "Several, start as soon as possible, end as soon as possible, so as not to make waves." ”
The one-eyed dragon spit a mouthful of saliva on his hand, wiped it, and said, "Let's start work, let's talk about it first, and leave the female doll to me, hehehe." ”
Everyone laughed and disappeared into the night.
Lu An and the others were hurrying as soon as possible, but they didn't dare to be too fast, for fear that someone would set a trap in front of them, so they still moved forward relatively steadily.
But the more Lu An walked, the more he felt that something was wrong, he always felt that there was a bad premonition, and the more he walked, the stronger it became, and he didn't know if it was his hallucination, his brows were furrowed closer and closer along the way, and even his heartbeat involuntarily accelerated a lot, and there was a feeling of trembling.
Lu An was the first to stop, and the few people behind were puzzled.
Li Qing opened his mouth and said, "I've already walked halfway, why did I stop suddenly?"
Lu An looked at a few people with a solemn face, then took out the meteoric iron sword and held it in his hand, and looked around.
Several people were nervous by Lu An's action, and they all involuntarily looked back and forth, not daring to speak.
After a long time, Yu Wenchuan found that there was no change in the surroundings, and everything was still as usual, so he asked impatiently: "What are you doing?"
Li Qing also frowned and looked at Lu An, who still had a solemn face, and opened his mouth to ask, but he still held back.
Lu An's palms were sweating involuntarily, and he had already looked around several times, and he couldn't tell the reason, but he suddenly had a feeling of panic in his heart, getting stronger and stronger, was there something wrong?
At this time, the sun has just set, the night has just risen, the official road under the feet leads straight into the distance, and it will be half an hour to Peicheng, now it is a darkness in the distance, and there is a forest on both sides of the official road, the silence is terrible, it seems that there is not even a trace of sound? Lu An listened carefully for a while, only heard the breathing of a few of his own people, other than that, there was really no sound, although it is autumn now, but there will still be some bird calls, insect sounds, right? Such a big forest, such a quiet night, even if it is far away, as long as there is a little sound, you should still be able to hear it, right?
But now, apart from the voices of a few people, there is not even a trace of it.
Lu An looked up at the night sky, there was no moon and no stars, it was dark, today's weather was high and crisp in autumn, and there were no clouds, it stands to reason that a few stars must be able to see it, right? Today is only the seventh day of the first lunar month, and the moon should almost come out.
The scariest thing is that there is not even a hint of wind.
Lu An whispered: "No sound, no wind, no moon. ”
Li Qing immediately closed his eyes and felt it, it was true, and suddenly cold sweat came out on his face.
Several other people also realized the meaning of this sentence, there must be demons for a reason.
Yu Wenchuan held the sword, Shi Lin pulled out the short knife pinned to his waist, Li Qing held a short gun, and Gu Yan honestly hid beside several people.
Several people slowly moved closer to Lu An.
Li Qing asked solemnly, "What should I do?"
Lu An shook his head and replied, "Although I found the problem, I still don't know where the danger is, but I feel that the further I go, the more wrong it becomes." ”
"What about going back?" Yu Wenchuan suggested.
Lu An shook his head, saying that he didn't know, but subconsciously felt that it might be more dangerous to go back. Suddenly, he said, "Do you know how to catch fish?"
"Catch fish?" Li Qing and Yu Wenchuan were stunned, did this inexplicable popping up such a word have anything to do with the current situation?
Seeing that there was no response from several people, Lu An continued: "Pond fishing, several fishermen cooperate, form a fan, slap the water, the fish are disturbed, and they dodge in one direction, and then the fishermen shrink the fan shape and drive the fish to the edge of the pond, the fan shape is getting smaller and smaller, the less space for the fish to move, the less likely it is to escape, and finally the fan forms a net, and the net is all gone." ”
Li Qing asked puzzledly, "We are the fish?"
Lu An nodded, "It is very likely that there may be a big net waiting for us at the end of this road, and behind us, there are a few people who are beating the water, driving us. ”
Yu Wenchuan hurriedly asked, "Then how should it be broken?"
Lu An thought for a while, and immediately said: "Although I am not sure, but what can be determined first is that someone must have set up a net waiting for us, but we don't know if it is too early to find this net, if it is early enough, then it is not in this net, there is hope, if it is too late, then it is already in the net, and we can only fight to the death." ”
Li Qing understood this sentence, then thought for a while, and said: "If this net is not fully formed, then we have hope to break the net directly, if it is already in the net, then we can only use our lives to break the net." ”
Lu An nodded, this is what he meant, and as soon as he took it out of his hand, the Liangyi stone appeared in his hand, and said to a few people: "Don't use it again, maybe you don't have a chance, it's the worst, and you can help us collect a corpse." ”
When Li Qing heard this, he nodded with an ugly face.
Yu Wenchuan's face is even pale, on the other hand, Shi Lin's face is the most decisive, and a fierce temperament arises spontaneously, much better than the others.
Lu An pinched it hard, and the Liangyi Stone instantly dissipated, turning into a little starlight and disappearing into the air.
Then Lu An began to count the strength of his side, Yuwenchuan's third realm sword cultivation, Li Qing's fourth realm spear cultivation, Shilin's third-grade peak martial artist, he can barely be regarded as a fourth-grade peak martial artist, Gu Yan? It shouldn't be weaker than himself, right? If you can still deal with two or three fourth-rank estimations, but don't have a fifth-rank or fifth-rank cultivator, then you will be unlucky, and I hope that Uncle Shi will arrive as soon as possible.
After thinking about it for a while, Lu An turned his head to Gu Yan and said, "Whether you are dead or alive tonight is up to you." ”
Gu Yan stammered and replied: "You, you, are you, scared, scared stupid, sick and rushed to the doctor, rely on me?"
When Lu An heard this, he immediately became puzzled, could it be that he guessed wrong? Wouldn't that be one less instant combat power, and he had to be distracted to protect him, and his face suddenly became a little more solemn.
Can you tell me what we should do now? I stood stupidly for a while, is it time to escape?" Yu Wenchuan said a little anxiously.
And so on. Lu An and Shi Lin replied at the same time.
Both of them were stunned, Lu An was happy, fortunately someone understood his words.
Li Qing was not convinced, and asked rhetorically, "Wait?"
Lu An nodded, "Yes, just wait, if this net has been formed, then sooner or later we will be fenced, but if this net has not been fenced yet, and they have not found that we have seen through this opportunity, thinking that we will definitely continue to move forward, then this fishing net will have a hole before it is narrowed, and we just need to wait for them to expose that flaw, and then escape from that loophole." So no matter what, waiting is the best way to go. ”
Gu Yan shook his head and added, "In this situation, the other party should have a formation master, so it is very likely that the other party has already discovered our abnormality, there may have been a loophole before, and now it is about to be plugged." ”
After hearing this, Lu An felt that it made sense, and just now he seemed to have neglected this question, and then said: "Then let's take the initiative in one direction, don't wait." ”
Then he looked at Gu Yan again and asked, "Which direction, you have the final say." ”
Gu Yan looked left and right, looked at the sky and touched the earth, pinched his fingers from time to time, and finally pointed to the direction on the left and said: "There is a bigger hope." ”
Lu An did not hesitate to go directly in that direction.
