Volume 1: The Wind Rises in the Wasteland Chapter 20: Seven Stars in the Night

After cleaning up the two black ice beasts, Zhao An rescued Xiao Mu and began to ask about the whole thing. After listening to Xiao Mu's narration, the general plot was not much different from what he had guessed. To be honest, the behavior of the old man and Xiao Gao is quite shameful, at least Zhao An himself thinks so.

Zhao An learned from Xiao Mu about the role of the black ice beast's eyeballs. However, strengthening his qi was no longer of much use to him, and what Zhao An needed now was to condense his internal organs and open the treasure of the Yuan Qi Secret Vault. But you can't use it yourself, you can also exchange it for money to raise Qiaoqiao, a foodie.

Zhao An treated Xiao Mu's injuries, and in return was to take them to Jingbei City. Because Zhao An urgently needs a map of Beilu Prefecture, it should be available in Jingbei City. Of course, Xiao Mu agreed to this deal without hesitation, who would be unable to live with his own life?

After temporarily suppressing the injury, Zhao An and Qiaoqiao marched towards Jingbei City under the guidance of Xiao Mu.

......

Outside Jingbei City.

A team of men and horses dressed in black and wearing seven-star masks were galloping on the official road to the Black Ice Mountains. In the distance, the outline of the Black Ice Mountain Range gradually became apparent, and this group of centaurs was not far from the mountain range.

These people are not ordinary Seven Star Division martial artists, they are from the Seven Star Division Headquarters in Jingzhou Shendu. This time I came to Beilu Prefecture to carry out the secret mission of the crown prince of the current dynasty, and the team was led by two Seven Star Si Baihu, and the members of the team were all elite martial artists of the Blood Marrow Realm.

Since receiving the news of the target, this team of people set off from the god capital to Hokuriku Prefecture overnight, and they will definitely not let the target escape this time.

......

The outer area of the Black Ice Mountains.

The full moon slowly rises into the sky, and night falls.

The Blood Marrow Realm Martial Artist is the last heaven of body refining, and his strength and perception have reached the limit that the human body can reach. Night vision is not a problem at all, so the old man and Xiao Gao, who had just escaped death, decided not to spend the night in the Black Ice Mountain Range, but rushed back overnight.

After all, we have reached the periphery of the mountain range, and there are basically no demon beasts, so there should be no problem in rushing at night. But there is always a chance that something will happen! A large group of seven-star warriors who came out of nowhere inexplicably subdued them, and it seemed that there was something to interrogate them.

The elder and the little one were tied to a three-person thick ice iron pine, surrounded by the Seven Star Division's Blood Marrow Realm martial artists. There were bursts of horses' hooves in the distance, from small to large, from vague to clear, and finally another team of Seven Star Division centaurs appeared in front of the old man.

The leaders were two people of similar shape, but they were wearing seven-star masks, so it was impossible to tell what they looked like. After the two dismounted and exchanged a few words, one of them walked up to them.

The man walked up to the old man and Xiao Gao, squatted down and said to the two people who were seated:

"I ask you to answer, do you know?"

The majestic voice came into the ears of the two of them, coupled with the serious atmosphere around them, the psychological defense line of the old man and Xiao Gao collapsed all of a sudden, and they began to nod wildly.

"We'll say everything!"

"Well, I like people like you who know the times. ”

After saying this, he took out a small pocket picture scroll from his collar, and the picture scroll opened, and a beautiful girl in a gorgeous palace dress was painted on it, graceful and luxurious, and naturally beautiful. Then he asked:

"Have you two seen this girl?"

"I've never seen it, my lord, we've never seen a woman with such an extraordinary temperament. ”

"You two really haven't seen each other? ”

We really haven't seen each other, but of course the old man and the little high won't talk about it again, so they have no choice but to look at the picture scroll again. After looking at it three or four times in a row, they finally found that the girl in the picture scroll seemed to be quite similar to Xiao Mu in some aspects.

"Hey, have you seen this girl?"

Feeling that the seven-star warrior in front of him was already a little impatient, the old man had no choice but to bite the bullet and say to him: "I've seen it, we've seen it." She's dead, though. ”

Hearing this, a trace of panic flashed in the eyes of the leader, how could he die? There was no choice but to take the body back, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not pursue it. So he asked the elder and the eldest again:

"Do you know where she died?"

The old man saw that there was a drama in saying this, so he simply carried it out to the end. He told the people in front of him about the failure of his group to hunt the Black Ice Beast, and deliberately detailed the part of Xiao Mu. Seeing that the leader kept pointing, he knew that he had made the right bet, and it was Xiao Mu that they wanted to find.

After listening to the old man's words, the leader stood up and turned away, waved his hand back and said to his subordinates:

"Deal with it. ”

As the words came out, one of the Seven Star Martial Artists around the old man drew the sword at his waist, pierced his throat with one sword, and stabbed Xiao Gao to death with another.

At this time, the other leading Seven Star Si Wu came over and said to the leader who interrogated the two elders:

"Yang Baihu, have you asked about Gao Mu's whereabouts?"

"Cheng Baihu, this matter is a little tricky. As mentioned by the two people just now, Gao Mu is most likely dead. ”

"It's dead, then how can we give an account to His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"Then what else can I do, I have to bring Gao Mu's body back. ”

The two discussed for a while, and then led their men to set off towards the place where the old man and his party were attacked.

......

Middle layer of the Black Ice Mountains.

Zhao An saw that it was dark, so he planned to stay in the cave he had just discovered for one night and set off again tomorrow. Xiao Mu didn't object, but Qiaoqiao was not in the mood to think about this, she was still missing her mother.

"Xiao Mu, is there a demon beast here that has the same strength as the Human Secret Realm at night?" Zhao An had to consider the danger of spending the night here.

"Brother Zhao rest assured. The Black Ice Mountain Range is not like the Tianshan Mountain Range, and the strongest thing here is only a half-step innate demon beast that can compete with it. Not to mention that this is already the middle and outer part of the Black Ice Mountains. Xiao Mu replied.

As soon as Zhao An heard that there was only a half-step innate existence at most, he was no longer worried. In addition to being relieved, he looked at Qiaoqiao who was in a daze, and began to think about how to comfort her? By the way, he could cook a delicious meal for Qiaoqiao to divert her attention.

Qiaoqiao's strength is not much different from mine, I should have no problem leaving for a while! Thinking of this, Zhao An instructed Xiao Mu:

"I'm going to find something to eat now, you can help me look at Qiaoqiao, don't let her run around." ”

Xiao Mu nodded and agreed. Seeing that Xiao Mu agreed, Zhao An had no worries, and used his body martial arts to sweep out of the cave, and disappeared into the night after a while.

......

After three hours of searching, Zhao An finally caught a wild boar. After cleaning up the river, Zhao An cut off the two legs of the wild boar with a black flame gas knife, and the rest of Zhao An didn't plan to ask for it. But to be honest, Zhao An felt that he was a bit wasteful!

Without wasting too much time, Zhao An walked towards the cave where Xiao Mu Qiaoqiao was hiding with two pork legs on his back. As he walked, he wondered how he would roast these two wild boar legs to comfort Qiaoqiao. Just when there were still a hundred meters away from the cave, a wisp of blood wafted into Zhao An's nose.

Damn, what shouldn't have come will still come. Zhao An threw down the pig's leg, performed the stacked sea step with all his strength, and flew away in the direction of the cave. As the distance got closer and closer, Zhao An smelled a large number of strangers, at least two dozen people!

What the hell is going on? Just as Zhao An'an was heading towards the cave and was unable to be distracted, three people with three long swords appeared from the darkness, stabbing at his body from different directions.

The three of them were just the Blood Marrow Realm, and Zhao An had already discovered them the moment they attacked, and their strength exploded directly from all around them, and the black flame qi violently dispersed the three people who attacked him.

Zhao An looked around at the three of them dressed, and his heart couldn't help jumping. These three people turned out to be the Seven Star Martial Artists.

What the hell is going on!
