II. Chapter 33—The Night Attack

It was late at night, and the cool air in the mountains was gradually coming down. In the haze, the forest also seemed to be entangled with a faint layer of misty mist, blocking the moonlight, only to see the faint shadows of the trees slanting on the ground, quiet but gloomy.

Everyone sat in the circle of light illuminated by the death plate, ate the dry food they carried with them, and before they could talk a few words, they listened to the single and sleepy sound of the flowing water next to them, and they all yawned from time to time.

Everyone has been running for several days, and they are already tired, and the sleepiness is surging at this moment, but in the dangerous place of Liuyun Mountain, how dare they completely let go of the guard in their hearts, so they have to meditate and sleep lightly to recover their energy.

The night was long, and I didn't know what time it was, Jiang Ming was resting, and I didn't know if it was a hallucination or a dream, he vaguely heard bursts of snoring, and wanted to open his eyes, but he only felt that his eyes were heavy. In this way, while half-asleep and half-awake, listening to the snoring sound next to him, as if he was also infected, his nerves suddenly relaxed, and his sitting body unconsciously fell to the side.

At night in the forest, the mist drifted lightly, and it was in a trance in the dark.

Above the firmament, the moon slowly moved westward, and occasionally a few inches of moonlight swayed gently through the gaps in the branches and leaves of the towering ancient trees, falling on the grass and shrubs.

In the wall of yellow light, Yu Xinshuang slowly opened his eyes, it was still night, and most of the rest of the people in front of him had fallen down, but Jingkong and Yu An still maintained a meditative posture.

She looked up abruptly, when will it be light?

Suddenly, as if she felt something, her brows furrowed slightly, and her hand subconsciously held the Immortal Sword beside her and looked across the stream.

In the faint moonlight, the shadows of the trees swayed, long projections on the ground, but at this moment, there were a few more faint figures on those thick branches.

Yu Xinshuang's face turned cold, and he slowly stood up, and the Adorned Dome Immortal Sword in his hand tightened a little tighter, staring at the darkness in the distance.

There was silence all around, except for the low chirping of insects and the sound of running water.

In mid-air, the yellow glow from the death plate was reflected on her face, and she pursed her lips, not knowing if it was nervousness or what.

On the big tree on the other side of the stream, the figures seemed to melt into the darkness, and they didn't move for a long time.

Yu Xinshuang frowned, and said softly, "Who?"

Almost the moment her voice came out, there was a sudden movement in the darkness in the distance.

Yu Xinshuang was shocked, and only felt that something was flying in the dark, but before he could react, he only heard a sound of "Bang!", and then the death disk high above his head shook violently, and fell directly to the ground, and the yellow mang disappeared instantly.

It was dark all around, and it enveloped her deeply.

All this happened only for a moment, Jingkong and Yu An also woke up at the same time, and immediately stood up vigilantly, staring towards the boundless darkness, but they couldn't see anything, looking at the vague figure of the woman in front of them, and was about to open their mouths to ask what was going on, when they suddenly heard the sound of leaves turning in the distance:

"...... Uproar"

"...... Uproar"

Jingkong and Yu An's faces changed slightly, and as they listened, the voices came from different directions, and they were getting closer and closer, as if something was rushing quickly.

Yu Xinshuang naturally understood that it was the figure just now, and snorted coldly, and the dome in his hand also emitted a faint blue light.

Seeing this, Jingkong and Yu An both frowned, and they also felt that something was unusual, and subconsciously sacrificed their magic weapons.

At this time, there was only a little light in the darkness, and when he looked down, he saw the rest of the disciples lying sideways, sleeping soundly, and suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "Wake up, wake up, wake up!"

Hearing this hurried voice, Jiang Ming's body shook in his sleep, and he hurriedly sat up, only to see that the senior sister, Lin Yi and Jingxin beside him had woken up, but most of them looked dazed, and Lin Yi looked like he hadn't woken up, touched his head, and suddenly said, "Why is it so dark, hey, what about the death plate?"

Then as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw that the three people in front of him were holding magic weapons, their momentum was tense, and they suddenly woke up more than half of them, and picked up the Luoyan Immortal Sword in a panic.

The monk took advantage of the slight glimmer of light to touch the fallen rebirth plate from the ground and stood next to the junior disciple's clear space.

But in a moment, in the mist of the stream not far away, a black figure rushed out with a strange scream, flying towards the crowd, with a fierce momentum!

For a while, several black shadows rushed out at the same time in all directions.

Everyone was immediately shocked, and the scene was chaotic.

Jingkong looked back at Jiang Ming and Li Mengru and said, "Be careful!" Bendang rushed forward to meet the black shadow first.

In the dark, Jiang Ming couldn't see the expression of the clear sky clearly, but he still felt that the situation was serious, nodded heavily, held the front dust fairy sword, and looked at the darkness behind.

After a while, a whistling and rumbling sound suddenly came out, Jiang Ming's heart tightened, and the front dust sword also emitted a red light, slashing towards the darkness in front of him.

The black shadow that rushed out of the night met the red sword, and it turned around and disappeared into the darkness, and I didn't know where I went, the speed was amazing. However, in a flash, a big hand suddenly reached out in front of him, and slapped straight on Jiang Ming's arm, the force was extremely heavy, and the Qianchen Sword almost came out of his hand.

However, Jiang Ming has been practicing the "Yuqing Sword Technique" for a while, so naturally he can't compare it with before, and when he wants to compete in Xiaotaoyuan Villa, he will only simply chop. Now that the swordsmanship has also been improved, with a flick of his wrist, the sword in front of him flew towards the black shadow like lightning.

Only a muffled sound could be heard in the darkness, Jiang Ming stepped forward instantly, only to see that the Qianchen Sword had pierced straight into the torso of an ancient tree in front of him, but there was no trace of a black shadow. While I was wondering, I suddenly heard a strange cry from above.

Looking up, the black figure was standing on the branch of the tree, raising his arms and laughing, dancing on his feet, quite a bit of a dance.

Jiang Ming gritted his teeth, pulled out the front dust sword, and jumped onto the ancient tree, the red light rolling towards the black shadow.

The black shadow seemed to sense the power and immediately dodged. But the next moment, when the two were close to each other, Jiang Ming's heart jumped violently, and he even forgot to breathe.

In the flashing red light of the Qianchen Sword, the face of the black figure was indescribably weird, it didn't look like a face at all, the long red nose was protruding, and there were several white ridges on both sides, as if a colorful face was drawn, and the fangs in the mouth were even more hideous!

It was also at this moment that Jiang Ming couldn't help but be stunned, and the black shadow smiled even more when he saw this, and there was an indescribable rampant evil in the dark.

There were about a dozen black shadows in this mountain forest, fighting with the disciples. But gradually everyone found that these black shadows were not very powerful, and even fought only to escape, but these black shadows were agile, very fast, with the help of the dark night cover, it was also extremely difficult, seeing that the situation was not good, they flashed into the light gauzy mist, and then rushed out coldly after a while.

This made everyone embarrassed, and they didn't dare to chase deeply, standing nervously in the dark and not daring to slack off, and observing the movements around them with all their attention.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the trees in the distance, although it was not big, but it was extremely clear at the moment, and the disciples followed the voice, only to see that the fog was hazy there, and a few vigorous ancient branches could be vaguely seen sticking out of it, swaying slightly in the faint moonlight.

When Li Mengru heard the familiar call, her face suddenly turned pale, and her face suddenly turned pale. Almost at the same time, a clear blue light pierced the night sky and disappeared into the mist.

On top of the ancient tree, a pair of big black hands tightly grasped Jiang Ming's wrist, and under the strange force, the Qianchen Sword could no longer be wielded, and the crimson light gradually dimmed.

The monster was so close to him that the glimmer of light could even see the hair on the horrible face, and the sharp, yellowish fangs in its mouth!

Jiang Ming had never been so close to such a vicious thing, and his mind was in turmoil for a while, his back was covered with cold sweat, and his eyes were full of horror. When the monster saw him like this, it actually stretched its head a little closer, its lips turned up, and it bared its teeth and smiled, as if it was playing tricks and intimidating.

"Brush!"

Suddenly, there was a clear roar, and the dead leaves in the vicinity fell one after another, and a blue light reflected the place.

The black monster was startled, turned its head to look, and saw a figure breaking through the dense forest and flying towards this direction.

Jiang Ming was also looking at the light, and suddenly felt that the strength on his wrist was loosened, his feet had not yet stood firmly, and his whole body was as if he had no strength, and he softened, but where did he remember that he was on top of the ancient tree, and before he had time to react, he slipped directly from the trunk.

At this critical moment, the monster that was about to flee just now seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly turned around and grabbed his arm again.

Jiang Ming hung on the trunk of the tree and looked up in fright, only to see the monster staring at him, whispering anxiously in his mouth, and his other hand was still there wildly.

"Brush!"

With another clear roar, the light of the Adorned Firmament Immortal Sword came from far and near, directly breaking through the branches of the ancient trees that were obscuring.

In the darkness, a sword light hit the monster directly, followed by several strange cries of anger and pain.

At the same time, Jiang Ming also fell straight down again, but before he could hit the ground, a jade hand reached over and grabbed his arm tightly.

In the secluded forest, under the faint moonlight, Jiang Ming's heart suddenly relaxed.

After the two of them fell to the ground, Yu Xinshuang looked up at the height of the ancient tree again, only to see that the monster was lying on the trunk for a while, and then stood up straight again, jumping at the two people on the ground, grinning with teeth, and looking extremely fierce and angry.

Everyone was tortured by this monster for most of the night, Yu Xinshuang naturally did not have a good face, and when his eyes were cold, he wanted to get up and rush to the ancient tree.

Somehow, Jiang Ming suddenly had a strange emotion in his heart, and hurriedly stopped Yu Xinshuang and said, "Senior Sister Yu, I don't know what happened to Senior Brother Jingkong, let's go back quickly." ”

Yu Xinshuang glanced up at the dark place, and at some point, the monster was gone, so she nodded hesitantly.

Just as the two of them were about to turn back, they saw another figure in the distance, and Jiang Ming recognized it as Senior Sister from a distance.

When Li Mengru came closer, Jiang Ming noticed that she was gasping slightly, and her face seemed to be a little pale.

"Senior brother, have you been injured?"

Jiang Ming was suddenly moved in his heart, shook his head, didn't know what to say, and shouted softly:

"Senior Sister ......"

Li Mengru's gaze looked at him again, and his face improved, and then he looked at Yu Xinshuang again, his eyes seemed to be a little complicated, he opened his mouth and did not speak.
