Chapter Twenty-Three: Beasts of the Forest

Three demons, do you mean that in addition to the black-robed man who controls the armor beast, there are two others?

That black-robed man actually used demon beasts to do things, which shows that he is definitely not a good type. And his kung fu seems to be extremely high, Li Bochen thinks that he will not be his opponent. If you add two, you probably have no chance of winning.

But at times like these, he would not be afraid of it. When facing demon beasts on the snowy field, how could he have any chance of winning? But as long as he improvises during the battle, there will always be a way. If you only take cultivation as the realm of winning or losing, you don't have to fight.

The trees at the foot of the mountain were relatively sparse and had not been knocked down by the monsters, so he could not see any traces of the monsters on the road. But after entering the forest, I ran in the direction pointed out by the old man for a while, and saw the upside-down trees. Li Bochen followed the trail all the way up the mountain, and after a short while, he heard the low roar of a demon beast coming from under a rock wall in front of him.

The armored beast roared angrily before, and its voice was very loud, but now it seemed like a tiger and leopard were making a threatening sound. Li Bochen clenched his dagger, picked up a broken branch from the ground, and slowed down to walk around the rock wall.

There was a small piece of flat ground in front of the rock wall, and the blue-black armored beast stood on the flat ground. The beast was in a strange state at this timeβ€”it kept growling, and its four paws trampled the broken trees to pieces, but it didn't leave. The crocodile-like head kept arching up the rock wall, as if it were looking for food.

Li Bochen looked at the arch and found that there were several stone cracks in the rock wall, the larger ones which could accommodate a person to get into. The armor beast is so powerful that it has already collapsed part of the stone crevice, but the rock is harder than the tree, and it can't do anything anymore.

As soon as his heart lit up, he risked alarming the beast and shouted, "Sister Hong?"

Sure enough, a voice came from the crack in the stone: "...... Who?"

It was Ye Yinghong's voice. Li Bochen thought that her voice should be frightened and panicked, but now that she heard it, there was still a trace of calmness, indicating that she should be okay for the time being. He breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "Sister Hong, it's me." I'll lure this brute away, and you'll find a chance to run!"

But Ye Yinghong didn't respond again. Maybe he is still jealous of his identity.

Suddenly, another clear female voice came: "Then you won't be able to live." This thing is called a Muddy Beast, and it has a lot of strength and runs fast. Now it is me and my grandfather who have temporarily restrained it, and we are so obedient. But if you alarm it, I'm afraid you'll die in a while. ”

Li Bochen was shocked, and immediately raised his head and found that there was a girl wearing a black fur standing on the top of the rock wall.

Shopkeeper Sun said that there were three demons, and he had been cautious when he searched all the way, paying attention to the traces of those three, but he never found them. Now the girl was on top, but he had not been aware of it before.

Li Bochen realized that this girl was by no means an ordinary person, and she was one of the three people.

He took two steps back and said in a deep voice, "Is Your Excellency using this demon beast to harm people?"

The girl stood on the top of the rock wall with her hands in her hands, looking at him with a smile on her face. If a man in the prime of life stands like this, he will have some heroic bearing. If you are an old man, you will look calm. She should have looked a little playful and cute when she did this, but with what she just said and the look on her face now, it made Li Bochen feel a sense of evil.

"It's not me who calls this thing, it's him. She said as she reached out and pointed into the distance.

Li Bochen looked in the direction she pointed and found that there was a green rock in the forest about dozens of steps to the east, and there was a black shadow on the rock. The black shadow was originally hidden by the trees, and he had just taken two steps back to see it through the cracks in the trees.

It was a black-robed man, sitting with his eyes closed, his hands in front of him, as if he was exercising his skills. On closer inspection, he noticed that the area around him seemed to be encased in a small whirlwind, with snow powder flying and branches dancing. However, strangely, not the slightest sound came.

Li Bochen frowned, and found that there was still a touch of red on the snow next to the bluestone. It's not blood, it's like ...... That little fox!

He thought about it for a moment, and felt that he had roughly figured out something.

That little fox should be the incarnation of Wujing Mountain Jun, and now it looks like he was killed by a black-robed man. But the mountain monarch is a spirit god, and it can also be regarded as a yin spirit with cultivation. Although the incarnation is dead, the spirit is not extinguished. At this moment, he should be fighting with the black-robed man in the form of a yin spirit, right? I'm afraid that there are more than 100 yin soldiers who have been "borrowed" from him to fight together.

And the girl on the rock wall said that she and her grandfather had restrained the Armored Beast...... Aren't these two people in the same group as the black-robed man?

But Li Bochen just wanted to save Ye Yinghong. Since the armor beast was restrained by this girl, it could be left alone. As for what these people are trying to do in the Wujing Mountain, he doesn't want to get involved.

Therefore, he said in a deep voice: "Girl, since you are righteous, it is better to move this beast farther away, I have saved people, and I will leave immediately." ”

The girl smiled slightly, "We don't have that ability. Restraint is to tell it not to move, but it can't be called. ”

Li Bochen said: "Then please do me a favor and ask me to lead it away." ”

The girl smiled and looked at him for a while, and then said, "Friend, I advise you not to do much." This demon beast is the eye of the formation set up by the demon. By restraining this formation, we weakened his formation. If you alarm the demon beast, the formation will be completed again. If you kill the demon beast, the array will be gone. Neither outcome is what we want. ”

She said this so convolutedly, Li Bochen couldn't understand it for a while, and he didn't know why this girl told her these things. But what he understood was that the other party did not care about Ye Yinghong's life trapped in the stone crevice.

After the girl said these words, the smile on her face disappeared and became expressionless. She is condescending and calm, but there is some contempt in her bones.

Li Bochen sneered: "What if I want to kill it and save people?"

The girl hooked the corners of her mouth: "Okay." ”

I didn't see what she did, but the armored beast seemed to suddenly break free from some kind of restraint, and with a roar of rage, it turned its head sharply. As soon as it saw Li Bochen, a pair of small pale yellow eyes immediately widened, and it spat out a fishy smell and pounced!

Li Bochen didn't expect that the girl on the rock wall would let it go, but it was no different from arson and murder. But he didn't have time to think about anything else, so he just threw the branch in his hand into the demon beast's mouth and shouted: "Beast!

The beast's mouth was wide open, and branches were being thrown into its great mouth. But once it was opened and closed, the wrist-thick branch shattered. When Li Bochen threw out the branch, he had already flashed behind a big tree with his feet, and he climbed up with his arm.

But the tree was only the thickness of a person's hug, and as soon as the armored beast pounced, the tree was immediately knocked off. With its two front paws propped up, it raised its head to bite the man in the tree. The upper part of the tree is falling to the side of the demon beast. Although Li Bochen had climbed a very tall section before, the size of the demon beast was huge, and now his position on the tree was only level with the head of the demon beast.

He stomped on the toppled trunk twice, and jumped over the beast's head!
