Volume 1 Chapter 9 The Broken Temple
Deep in the mountains, in a ruined temple, a group of rogues gathered by the fire, nibbling on venison.
"Boss, when did you say the fourth and tenth will come back?"
"Yes, boss, shouldn't they have gotten any benefits first, and run away by themselves!"
The boss called by the two slowly raised his head, with two scars on his face, one horizontal and one vertical, intertwined, holding raw venison in both hands, and deer blood still hanging from the corners of his mouth.
"Smack, smack"
There were two more clearly visible bloody palm prints on the faces of the two, and the two hurriedly moved back, covering their faces and lowering their heads, not daring to say more.
The people around stopped and watched, and they didn't dare to make extra movements.
"Hmph! A few of us managed to escape from the dungeon, burned the yellow paper, and worshipped the handle. They'll come back, and besides, if they don't, where can they escape?" Scar Man said coldly.
A lean man with a hooked nose stood up and said, "Boss, I'll take a few brothers and go to look for them. ”
The scar man didn't respond, his eyebrows condensed, staring at the fire, his hands rubbing his big bald head.
The scar man only rubs his bald head when he has something on his mind, or when he has murderous intent, people who know him well can't say anything when they see him rubbing his bald head, and those who don't know him think he's showing off his smooth head.
They won't really escape, but if they do, they will leak our whereabouts, see if I don't cramp and skin them!
Just as the scar man was thinking about it, a high-pitched shout came from outside the temple.
"Big brother, big brother, we're back!"
A two-meter-tall giant man violently pushed open the temple door and walked into the temple hall in three or two steps.
The giant man was followed by a rickety man, his eyes were rolling wildly, and the appearance of the thief's eyebrows and rat's eyes looked a little weird.
"It turned out that the tenth brother and the fourth brother came back. Come and sit down, I just caught a wild deer yesterday. ”
The scar man got up and greeted him.
"Hahaha, big brother, good, good, when I have eaten and drunk enough, I will tell my brothers the good news!"
The big man skimmed the scar man's side, sat down by the fire, looked at the venison bubbling in the fire, picked up the largest piece, and devoured it in a big gulp, the corners of his mouth were hot, but he didn't care.
The scar man frowned slightly, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes, and then he recovered and turned his head to look at the rickety man.
"Fourth brother, what happened to make the tenth brother so happy?"
The rickety man kneaded his mustaches, squinted his eyes and said slowly: "There is a mountain village in the south of us, I went to inquire, their village is rich in rice, and it is famous in our Fengze country. There must be a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, and spirit stone treasures in this gold, silver, jewelry, and spiritual stones, and we will go and search for them, and it will be enough for us to nourish our lives for several months!"
When the scar man heard this, he didn't reply, rubbed his big bald head, and walked around the temple, as if he had something on his mind.
A man in white with a folding fan in his hand slowly got up, walked to the scar man's side, shook the folding fan, and waited for the scar man to stop.
"What? What do you think?"
The man in white was asked, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "Boss, we have been chased by Fu Hong's father and son for three months, and we have been going around in this deep mountain for a month, it's time to find a stable place to live in one, we can no longer rob a village as before, we can use this mountain village as our stronghold, develop and expand our strength, when the time comes, even if Fu Hong and they find us, we are not afraid!"
The scar man lowered his head and pondered for a while, then asked in a loud voice, "How do we get rid of the two fathers and sons?" Even if we go to the village, no matter how well they hide it, they will find out!"
The man in white shook the folding fan, looked at the fire and said, "Then it depends on the ability of the ninth brother!"
"Ninth brother, what do you want him to do?" The scar man looked at one of the men who had just been beaten in surprise, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
"Ninth brother, his movement speed is the fastest among us! even if Fu Hong's father and son try to catch up with him, it will be in vain. When the time came, we pretended to flee to the desolate world in the west, looking for an opportunity to return to the village mentioned by the fourth brother, and the ninth brother continued to flee to the west, making traces of the escape of ten of us along the way. As long as the ninth brother can lead them to the border and make traces that we have escaped into the desolate world, then Fu Hong has no choice but to go back obediently to restore his life!"
The desolate world in the west, connecting the Fengze Kingdom in the south and the Tubei Kingdom in the north, there are countless explorers and fugitives entering the desolate world every year, but few people can come back.
When the scar man heard this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, and he ran to Lao Jiu, pinched his shoulders with both hands, and pulled him up.
The ninth brother in the mouth of the scar man is short in stature, with sunken cheeks, thin like a monkey, and will be taken away when the wind blows.
"Hahaha, ninth brother! My good ninth brother! My own brother! You heard it just now! Whether we can live well in the future depends on you! It was wrong to be the eldest brother just now, and the eldest brother is here to compensate you!"
Lao Jiuyi heard that he was really going to let him be a bait, so he hurriedly collapsed and said: "Boss, I can't do it, as soon as I see Fu Hong's father and son, my legs are weak, and I can't run no matter how fast I am!"
As soon as the scar man heard this, he immediately put away his smile, raised his hand and wanted to fight down, Lao Jiu covered his head with both hands and squatted down.
"Alas, big brother, I have something to say! I have a solution... ”
The rickety man whispered a few words in Scar Man's ear, and Scar Man's distorted face immediately stretched.
"Okay! Just follow the fourth brother's yours! ha!"
The man with the scar rubbed his bald head and walked to the side, the man in white had a gleam in his eyes, and slowly walked towards the door, leaning against the door.
The rickety man hung down, his knees sunken throughout, his legs bent inward, like a bow being drawn.
"Ninth brother, I have a high-grade treasure elixir here, as long as you eat it, it can make your strength skyrocket, even ten Fu Hong can't catch up with you!" The rickety man's voice was like the tip of a needle, and the words were inserted into Lao Jiu's heart.
Feng Zeguo's name for the elixir is divided into nine kinds: mortal product, mysterious product, treasure, superlative, spiritual product, king product, holy product, immortal product, emperor product, each of which has three levels: upper, middle and lower.
In order to facilitate the distinction, some countries directly use the numbers one to nine to indicate the corresponding grades, and there are also three grades: upper, middle and lower.
Lao Jiu looked at the rickety man in horror, moved back with his limbs together, curled up in the corner and kept trembling.
The rickety man straightened his legs, straightened up and said coldly: "It seems that our good ninth brother is unwilling to help us!"
Lao Jiu raised his head, tears still hanging on his sunken cheeks, and shouted in a hissed voice: "Elixir? What else can the medicine you give besides poison? Don't think I don't know, you still cultivate poisonous spirits! If you want to die, I don't want to die at your hands!"
Lao Jiu leaned over and ran towards the door quickly, and the people around him didn't even turn their eyes, so Lao Jiu ran to the door.
When everyone reacted, Lao Jiu had already rushed out of the door.
"Catch him!"
As soon as the scar man shouted, he only heard a "bang", and Lao Jiu's thin body flew into the room from the outside and slammed into the wall, and the wall cracked in response, and cracks appeared, which continued to extend outward.
"Wow... ”
Lao Jiu spat blood, all the clothes on his body were cut, and his face was covered with dense fine strangulation marks.
"Hahaha, second brother, well done!"
The scar man was overjoyed, and he didn't expect Lao Jiu to be blocked back by the man in white's release of martial arts.
Martial arts, qi out of the dantian, by the aura traction illusion, there are countless martial arts in the world, each martial art in the hands of the releaser, can make unexpected effects.
The man in white heard the scar man's praise, and the folding fan in his hand shook happily a few times.
"Oh, my good ninth brother! I'll tell you, why don't you listen? Fourth, come and feed the medicine!"
The scar man said, and slipped up Lao Jiuti, who was paralyzed on the ground.
The rickety man took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a green pill, pinched Lao Jiu's jaw, and threw it in.
The scar man raised his hand and lifted Lao Jiu's neck, and the pill slid obediently into his abdomen.
"Step back. ”
The rickety man reminded loudly, and the scar man let go of his hands and let Lao Jiu go limp.
Lao Jiu, who was lying on the ground, began to breathe rapidly, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells.
The wind element in the air began to frantically gather around Lao Jiu, and Lao Jiu slowly floated in the air.
A huge amount of wind elements rushed into Lao Jiu's body, swam through the meridians, and reached the dantian.
"Ahh
Lao Jiu only felt that his dantian was about to be burst, and roared in mid-air, but no one was willing to step forward to help him.
Lao Jiu's dantian, meridians, muscles, and skin were cracked one after another, and strands of green blood flowed out.
The green blood came into contact with the air and scattered into green gas, enveloping Lao Jiu in it.
The green gas accompanied the drilling of the wind element, and then drilled into Lao Jiu's body, and the torn wound was healing rapidly.
The surrounding wind elements gradually dissipated, Lao Jiu fell to the ground with a "bang", his hands were clubbed to the ground, his eyes looked at the rickety man viciously, the scars on his body had recovered as before, and his face was a little more rosy.
"You just fell for the martial arts released by the second brother, and it won't be good for seven or eight days. Look, now that you have taken the pill I gave, are you alive again? So, you don't have to thank me!"
The rickety man said with a smile, but his smile was the kind of skin that didn't smile, which made people look very weird.
"I'm going to kill you!"
The old ninety fingers slashed into the ground, and after a few "rubbing" times, he crawled to the old ghost's side, stretched out his five fingers and turned his claws, and grabbed the old ghost's neck.
"Bang!"
The scar man smashed his fist into Lao Jiu's back, Lao Jiu flashed sideways, and his fist fell to the ground, and a hole appeared on the ground in an instant.
The dust dissipated, and everyone stared at Lao Jiu, making a defensive posture, no one can compare to him in terms of speed, and he can wipe his neck if he is not careful.
"Ninth brother, do you know what you eat? you want to kill me in such a hurry, but there is no antidote at that time, don't blame me for the rotten stomach!"
The rickety man named Lao Ghost looked at Lao Jiu on the side with cold eyes, rubbing his beard with his fingers constantly, thinking about how to calm him down.
"Even if it's death!I'm going to drag you to hell!" Lao Jiu shouted angrily at the old ghost, his eyes radiating endless anger.
"Although you are the fastest, and now you have taken the pill, and your speed has reached a higher level, but if you want to kill the fourth brother, you have to pass my level first!" said the man in white slowly fanning the folding fan.
The big man put away the giant axe and ran between the two to be a peacemaker: "Second brother, ninth brother, everyone is a brother!
"Yes, ninth brother, don't be so stubborn, it's not like the fourth brother won't give you an antidote. ”
"Ninth brother, listen to my brothers, everyone is for a stable life in the future!"
。。。。。。
The people around him began to persuade Lao Jiu one after another, hoping that he could calm down.
Lao Jiu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, at this time he had no way to retreat, he could only obediently obey.
"Okay! If you want me to be bait, you can do it! Give me the antidote first! I will do my best!"
The old ghost walked out of the crowd and said slowly: "It's useless to take the antidote now, one point of poison and one part of force, the poisonous gas has penetrated deep into your bone marrow, and only by taking the antidote in batches can it be slowly resolved." Your current strength should have reached the Cave Void Realm!"
The Cave Void Realm is the last realm of the three realms of the Xuan, which can cover the aura on the limbs, manifest the aura, and initially reveal the body of the soul.
As he spoke, the old ghost took out another porcelain vase from his bosom and threw it to Lao Jiu.
"This is the antidote, a year's supply, take one a month, the last antidote is with me, I will naturally give it to you when the time comes!"
"That's true!"
"There is no half a lie!"
Lao Jiu lowered his head and looked at the porcelain vase in his hand.
The scar man walked over and put his arm around Lao Jiu's shoulder, "Good brother!
Everyone sat around the fire, some were talking and laughing and eating venison, talking and laughing, only Lao Jiu, his eyes peeked at the old ghost from time to time, the old ghost kneaded his beard, stared at the barbecue on the fire, and did not say a word.
On the ninth day of An Xiuzhu's search for medicine, it was getting late, and he was looking for a place to rest for the night.
Walking out of the woods, the ruined temple suddenly appeared in front of me.
I can only sleep here for one night!
An Xiuzhu raised his feet and walked towards the broken temple, and he didn't know what happened inside the broken temple just now.
An Xiuzhu pushed the door in, saw the fire in the hall, and realized that there were people inside.
There are people in the broken temple, and there is still the smell of human blood and deer blood, so let's go out first!
An Xiuzhu pumped his feet and wanted to go out, but was stopped by a voice.
"Friends from outside, they're all in, don't be in a hurry to leave!"
There was a sound of rustling outside the door behind him, and An Xiuzhu knew that he was surrounded, and there were quite a few of them.
Listening to the footsteps, it doesn't look like the hunters in the village, these people are afraid that they are not good!
"I went into the mountains to look for medicine, passing by Guibao Land, I didn't know that there were already people living there, and there was a lot of trouble, so I will leave!"
At the door of the hall, a person whispered: "Big brother, it's not Fu Hong's father and son, it's a person who went into the mountains to find medicine." What a false alarm, I'll send him away!"
The scar man stretched out his hand and slapped the speaker's head, lowered his body and shouted angrily: "Stupid you! You believe everything he says! If he is the person sent by Fu Hong's father and son to explore the truth, what should he do!"
The man rubbed his head and said no more.
"Second brother, what do you think?"
The man with the scar turned his head to look at the man in white, the man in white was the brainchild in their team, and thanks to his advice, these people had survived until now.
The man in white narrowed his eyes slightly, and said softly: "Kill!"
An Xiuzhu quietly waited for the other party's response, and the folding fan on his waist was already tightly held in his hand.
"Friend, it's cold outside, come in and sit down, there's freshly roasted venison inside. There are many wild beasts at night, so be careful to walk the mountain road and fold your body!"
"Thank you brother Tai for your concern! I'm used to it alone, so I won't bother you anymore!"
As An Xiuzhu spoke, wind elements poured out of the dantian, all over his body, and he could respond to unexpected situations at any time.
"Big brother, he said 'everyone', he knows we're in there!"
The scar man slammed into the man's head again, glaring at him and roaring, "I'm not deaf! I can hear it! Blow the whistle and kill this little white face!"
Suddenly, a crisp whistle sounded, streaking across the silent night sky and resounding throughout the temple.
An Xiuzhu secretly screamed in his heart, activated his aura, turned around and slammed open the wooden door, and ran towards the woods outside.
