Chapter Twenty-Four: How Much Longer?
Song Youxin saw Mo Ji and Lin Chunxi, struggling to stand up, but was stopped by Mo Ji, "Senior brother, lie down, don't get up", and then motioned to Lin Chunxi to let everyone in.
Lin Chunxi then took the order, he left Chen Yiyao and Lu Ling on guard outside, and the others entered this hidden backup contact point in turn.
Mo had time to call Luo Yifei and ask him to treat the seriously injured Song Youxin. Luo Yifei saw that the wound on Song Youxin's body had dried up a little, and some parts were stuck with the clothes, so he couldn't help but shake his head, and then took out a small pair of scissors and carefully picked up the pieces of clothes at the wound.
Song Youxin was sweating in pain, but he gritted his teeth and didn't snort, Luo Yifei quickly disinfected the wound, applied medicine, and bandaged it again. With the completion of a series of treatments, Song Youxin's complexion gradually eased, but beads of sweat the size of beans also covered his forehead.
When everyone saw the scars on his body, they couldn't help but be shocked, and they could see what kind of danger this person had experienced.
Seeing that Song Youxin's spirit was gradually improving, Mo Ji began to ask him about the Miaonan area and a series of events.
Lin Chunxi fed Song Youxin a few mouthfuls of food and drank some water. Song Youxin began to tell everyone slowly.
It turned out that one night, there was an earthquake in the forest in the Miaonan area, and the earthquake occurred suddenly and violently, and everyone was still asleep except for a few people who were on duty at night. After the major earthquake passed, there were several small aftershocks, and the houses collapsed badly, but fortunately, there were no casualties.
The person in charge of the Miao Nan rudder then sent several groups of people to investigate the cause of the earthquake, but not long after these people were dispatched, news came back, saying that because of the earthquake, there was a tide of beasts in the forest, and a large number of animals in the mountains ran out of the forest in groups and fled for their lives.
However, before the reconnaissance teams could reach their predetermined positions, they were attacked by the Miao Nan Demon Dao one after another, and the personnel sent abroad suffered heavy casualties, and only a few of them fled back to the rudder.
When the rudder regathered his forces and prepared to defend against the enemy, the demon road had already surrounded the door, and everyone fought desperately, trying to break out, but under the opponent's tidal attack, all the obstacles of the rudder fell one after another. Fortunately, before the other side completely formed an encirclement, the person in charge of the rudder sent out the warning information.
The next few tentative breakouts all ended in failure, and the Demon Dao came prepared this time, the number of participants was sufficient, and each of them was not weak, and the casualties in the rudder were very serious.
Song Youxin sighed with sadness on his face, and continued, "The leader told me this location, let me break through and wait here for reinforcements sent by the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, and I must wait for you to come alive."
Mo Ji's face was also heavy, "Are there any survivors in our Miao Nan rudder?"
Song Youxin shook his head, "I don't know, when I broke through, my teammates were chased by the Demon Dao one by one, and I was the only one who barely escaped here with an injury, even if the others were still alive, they should have been captured by the Demon Dao, I'm afraid that at this time, it was already more auspicious."
Everyone fell silent, but before they could break the silence, they continued to ask, "Where is the log of the rudder now, and is it still in the rudder?", everyone knows that this log is very important, it has all the records of the Miao Nan rudder over the years, because many of the contents in it involve top secrets, so it is very important for all parties. Now that the rudder was destroyed and the whereabouts of the personnel were unknown, this log book became the focus of contention among all parties.
Song Youxin saw that Mo had time to ask about the log, and nodded hurriedly, "I know, I know, I brought the log, I was chased by the master of the Demon Dao at that time, and I was worried that the log would fall into the hands of the enemy with me, so I hid it in a proper place, let's go and get it immediately", and then he got up again, but several wounds on his body were faintly cracked open, oozing blood, and he sat down again in pain.
Mo Ji hurriedly held him up, "Senior Brother Youxin, don't worry, since the log has been properly hidden, you can rest first, and we will go and get it tomorrow." ”
"How can that be?!" , Song Youxin's anxious hand slapped the ground, "The log was brought out by the same disciples with their lives, if I couldn't move, I would have gone to retrieve it a long time ago, or I would have died, and I couldn't leave it to the Demon Dao, help me up, take it back before it gets dark, otherwise I will have a lot of dreams at night."
Seeing that Song Youxin insisted repeatedly, Mo had time to whisper a few words to Lin Chunxi, and then gathered a few disciples, and after discussion, it was decided to let Lin Chunxi, Chen Yiyao, Lu Ling, and Tao Ye escort Song Youxin with him and rush to retrieve the log.
The entrance to this alternate location was narrow, which was suitable for Xue Lingheng to arrange the talisman array, and at the same time, Lu Yiru's fire spell was also conducive to playing, so they were left to guard it.
The sun was about to set, the sky was getting dark, and the dense forest seemed to be exceptionally quiet, Mo Ji and Lin Chunxi and others helped Song Youxin, who could barely walk, and slowly moved towards the place where the log was hidden.
The air in the valley is humid, and there are mosquitoes from time to time, but fortunately, there are insect repellent medicines given by Luo Yifei to everyone, which can be resisted for the time being. The road along the way was rough, and given that the magic path could appear at any time, the people did not dare to use spells, and walked through the woods.
After walking for about half an hour, the sky was completely dark, the light in the dense forest was very dark, the road was getting narrower and narrower, and the dense forest was getting quieter and quieter, and there was a faint sense of slaughter.
"How long will it take to have a letter brother?", Mo asked while looking around.
Song Youxin wiped the sweat on his head, I don't know if it was because of the pain of the wound or because of nervousness, the sweat couldn't stop dripping, and hurriedly replied, "It's not far, it's just ahead."
Mo didn't have time to stand still, slowly raised his head, and said coldly, "I'm asking, how long is it?"
Song Youxin saw that Mo Ji's face changed slightly, and hurriedly explained, "It's really fast, it's on the mountain in front", and then accelerated his speed and took two steps forward.
This is what he found that Mo Ji and the others did not follow him, but stood behind like javelins, silently watching him.
Song Youxin's face was a little unnatural, and he asked Mo Ji in a low voice, "What's the matter, senior brother, let's hurry up and get the log, we have to rush back, it will be very dangerous if it is exposed outside for a long time."
Mo Ji not only did not answer his question, but his face became more and more cold, and he asked coldly, "You haven't answered me yet, how long will it take?"
Song Youxin was a little at a loss, rubbed his hands on both sides of his pants, and returned tremblingly, "I said it just now, it's almost there, it's right in front of you."
Mo had time to look around, his right hand held the hilt of the Lingyin Sword, and he didn't look at Song Youxin again, and blurted out, "I'm asking, how long will it be before the demons appear."
