Chapter 157: Sleepless Night
In the middle of the jungle.
The three figures rushed forward in a hurry, panicking, and the trampled muddy water splashed everywhere.
Suddenly, a tall figure blocked their way.
Without seeing who it was, Liu Yu pulled out the lancet and slashed forward, and a cold light burst out from the tip of the knife.
The sword was not close to the black shadow, as if swallowed by the night, and disappeared without a trace.
Liu Yu's face turned pale, turned his head, and shouted to Rong Tiantian behind him: "Tian Tian, run!"
"It's me!" Lin Chenben lit the Heavenly Wolf Staff, the flames flickered, the temperature around him rose sharply, and the rain in the air turned into mist and dispersed.
The man in front of him, his face was like a jade pan and his body was like a tree, his eyebrows were radiant, he was wearing a green shirt, simple and clear, the corners of his mouth were curved into a charming amplitude, and he was showing a faint smile towards himself.
Even if he was running for his life, Liu Yu at this time couldn't help but be distracted for a moment, this man was so handsome.
Immediately reacted, holding the knife in both hands, still on guard, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"
"He's your Senior Brother Lin!" A figure rushed up from behind, it was Ding Liqiang.
"Deacon Ding, are you okay?" Liu Yu leaned over. It's only been a long time, and when I saw Ding Liqiang's serious injury healing, I felt incredible, and looked Ding Liqiang up and down.
"Not only is Deacon Ding fine, we... It's safe!" Mumba said as he leaped out of the dense forest, clasping his hands on his knees.
"Really? We're safe? Deacon Ding, who is Senior Brother Lin you are talking about?
"I know, it's Brother Chen, it must be!" Rong Tiantian put He Hu aside and couldn't wait to jump towards Lin Chenben.
"Brother Chen, Brother Chen!" Rong Tiantian was happy to jump like a deer, and instantly threw himself into Lin Chenben's arms.
"Brother Chen, since you and the head disappeared, there have been rumors in the sect that you stole the Seven Treasure Pagoda and then flew away, we don't believe it, where have you been during this time? Everyone misses you so much!" Rong Tiantian has grown a lot in the past year, and just reached Lin Chenben's waist, at this time she was still combing two braids, tilting her head and asking curiously.
Lin Chenben rubbed Rong Tiantian's pigtail with one hand, bent down, and gently scratched her nose, "I miss my brother, my brother misses you too, let's go, let's find a place to live first." ”
"Okay, everything is up to Brother Chen!"
.....
I don't know how long it took, but it rained all night, and finally stopped.
At this time, next to Lu Xinghuo's body, the three of them gathered together, not knowing what to investigate.
"Big brother, those few things in the Iron Sand Sect who don't know whether they are alive or dead, they simply don't take our Demon Slayer Sect seriously, dozens of Xinghuo people were killed, and I don't know what treacherous methods they used, but one thing is certain, this matter must be done by them. A man in his early twenties next to him said through gritted teeth.
"Last night, after Xinghuo played the teleportation talisman, he lost contact, he said in his message, the five people of the Iron Sand Sect, the highest realm is only the middle level of the Kaiyuan Realm, Xinghuo is the high level of the Kaiyuan Realm, they will definitely not be able to kill Xinghuo, I think it should be that the information of the previous investigation is wrong. "The man who is called the eldest brother has a very thin body, as if he is like a layer of skin wrapped in bones, and his face is deep-seated and hideous.
"However, it doesn't matter, go back and tell Brother Qingyan first, they can't escape. After speaking, the man spilled a handful of venom, and Lu Xinghuo's headless corpse quickly decomposed, leaving no bones, blending into the dirty muddy water, and completely disappearing.
God, twilight.
In a large tree hole, the firelight illuminates the cave.
The countless empty wine jars around the cave, just like them at this time, were lying on the ground horizontally and vertically, it was Lin Chenben and Ding Liqiang and their party.
Last night, everyone chatted happily and drank openly, Lin Chenben made the snow brew and slowly talked about the things he had experienced for more than a year, which was both thrilling and exciting, which made Rong Tiantian yearn for it.
Hearing that he was chased by Fu Zhonghong's huge fireball for more than a thousand miles for the sake of Han Toad, and almost wiped out his soul, Rong Tiantian had a worried expression on his face, and couldn't help but hold Lin Chenben's arm to check left and right, and when he heard that Lin Chenben gave the wind and thunder beast that he had spent eighty spirit stones to gamble on, Rong Tiantian laughed, which made everyone laugh, and she also drank a lot of wine, and unconsciously, the smile on her face was like a peach, after all, I don't know if she couldn't resist the drowsiness or drunkenness, and went to sleep with an innocent smile and clothes.
Togetherness is always short-lived.
By the time everyone woke up, noon had arrived.
Everyone is busy cleaning up.
"Brother Chen, I don't want you to go. Rong Tiantian dragged Lin Chenben's arm and said coquettishly.
"Tian Tian, don't mess around, presumably Junior Brother Lin still has important things to do, and he can't delay. Ding Liqiang said seriously, and then stepped forward.
"Little Brother Lin, I, Ding Liqiang, really didn't see the wrong person, it's only been more than a year, and your realm has already made Brother Ding out of reach" "... Ahem, that, don't you really stay two more days?"
"Yes, yes, big brother, stay a few more days, if we don't meet you this time, we will definitely die, big brother is a lucky star, shining above our heads. Mumba leaned in and said with a hippie smile.
"Yes, Senior Brother Lin, just stay for two more days. The crowd chimed in.
"That's right, Senior Brother Lin, if you don't have anything important, just stay a few more days, and the little girl will come and thank you well. Liu Yu's face flushed with a slight peach, and after speaking, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look directly.
"Brother Ding, I won't tell you, my purpose this time is to take a look at the mysterious Tianyuan, and then go to the most prosperous Sun Moon Fort in the Liuyun Continent to have a look, which can be regarded as a matter of thought, if everyone comes out this time and has nothing else to do, why not, let's go to Sun Moon Fort together?"
Everyone looked at Ding Liqiang in unison, and Rong Tiantian jumped up excitedly, full of anticipation of Ding Liqiang's decision.
"Bringing them out for trial this time is actually not a task sent by the sect, but just to let them increase their knowledge, if they want to survive in the cultivation realm, they must become stronger, and at the same time, I believe that after this incident, they will also really grow. Ding Liqiang looked at the four of them earnestly.
"Uncle Ding, don't worry, after last night's incident, we have a deep understanding that in this world, the strong are respected, we will not live up to your expectations, haven't you never been to Sun Moon Castle, just take us to see and see." Rong Tiantian was full of infinite reverie about Sun Moon Castle, and his thoughts had already drifted into the distance.
"Hmph, you're smart, our mission hasn't been completed this time, we'll talk about it when you complete it successfully. Ding Liqiang did not refuse.
"Oh, by the way, Brother Ding, what was the reason for last night's incident that made them desperate to hunt you down. Lin Chenben suddenly asked.
Ding Liqiang told the story from beginning to end, and finally could only sigh helplessly.
"Oh, Brother Ding, is it possible that they will come back to seek revenge?" Lin Chenben heard the worry hidden in Ding Liqiang's words, and his face instantly turned cold.
"Their Demon Slayer Sect has always been ruthless, this matter has suffered a big loss, how can it be so easy to give up, the man you killed last night is named Lu Xinghuo, he is a young man in the middle level of the Kaiyuan Realm, he is the rising star of the Demon Slayer Sect, and he also has a certain reputation in their sect, but this time the people they came here are not just Lu Xinghuo, it is said that their leader has reached the peak of the Kaiyuan Realm, alas, you have also seen that they act by unscrupulous means, persimmons pick soft pinch, but Brother Ding is only in the middle level of the Kaiyuan Realm, and even if he fights for his life, he can't protect their safety。 ”
"In this case, then let them have no return, these two days, we will be careful, and I will go with you to capture the other second-level demon beasts. After speaking, Lin Chenben took out a large number of low-grade spirit stones and pills from the storage bag.
"Tian Tian, come here, Brother Chen has prepared a spirit stone for you, you have to step up your cultivation, break through the condensation realm in one fell swoop." ”
"Brother Chen, last time, because of the spirit stones you left behind, we were much faster than our senior brothers and sisters in the same class, and this time, we will definitely not disappoint Brother Chen. Rong Tiantian saw such a huge number of spirit stones at a glance, except for shock, all that was left was excitement, holding Lin Chenben's hand and swaying left and right.
"The so-called seeers have a share, what about these spirit stones, I also worked hard to get them, and now I can only help everyone, but these are nothing, the most important thing is that I still have a magic weapon to refine myself, once I relied on him to escape the pursuit of the peak powerhouse of the Five Illusion Realm. ”
"Wow, it's worthy of being a big brother, what magic weapon is so powerful?" Mumba stared at Lin Chenben's hands with his mouth wide open, for fear of missing the opportunity to witness, and being able to escape the pursuit of the powerhouses of the Five Illusion Realms was an ordinary thing.
