Chapter 16: The Black Panther
"Since that day, I've been on the run. But those people are haunted, and I know that they have too many secrets, and they can't let me go. ”
Speaking of this, Fan Wenxuan paused and glanced at Qin Dang before continuing:
"Xiao Dang is different from me, he is an orphan, I met him on the road, and when I saw him pitiful, I invited him to eat. I didn't expect this kid to follow me all the time, and I couldn't get rid of it. ”
Hearing this, Qin Dang on the side smiled embarrassedly. Before the doubts in Ke Mojue's heart could be solved, he interrupted Fan Wenxuan and asked, "Since this is the case, then you should avoid them." Why is it still ......?"
Fan Wenxuan was silent for a while, his eyes unconsciously turned to the side, and he said vaguely:
"As I said, I owe you my life, and I will pay you back. I don't like to owe people something. ”
Just when Mo Jue wanted to say something, Qin Dang on the side pulled Mo Jue's sleeve. Pointing to the mountains and forests on the side with one hand, Mo Jue also felt his body trembling slightly.
Mo Jue turned his head to look, only to see a black figure lying in the grass slowly coming towards them. When the black shadow got closer, Mo Jue could see it clearly, it was clearly a leopard with a pitch-black body, hunched over and walking towards them step by step.
Fan Wenxuan naturally saw it, and slowly grabbed the handle of the knife, blocking the two behind him. He said: "How can there be a black panther at this time, this beast is obviously foraging for food after dark." ”
Speaking of this, Fan Wenxuan suddenly thought of something and looked up at the sky. It turned out that when he was just reminiscing about the past, the sunset in the sky had climbed down the hillside at some point, and a little stars had begun to appear in the dim sky.
Qin Dang clutched Mo Jue's sleeve tightly, and as the black panther approached little by little, he trembled even more.
Mo Jue also had bitterness in his heart and couldn't say it, he had just experienced a battle, and he was weak at the moment, and he was afraid that he couldn't even use three points of strength.
On the other hand, Fan Wenxuan, although he looked extremely quiet on the surface. In fact, even he, in front of this psychic black panther, can only protect himself, let alone protect the two of them.
The panther was soon not far from a few people, and Mo Jue could even hear the beast's heavy panting and deliberately suppressed low roar.
Qin Dang faced the black panther approaching step by step, and took a few steps back in fright. Fan Wenxuan shouted in his heart: It's not good!
I saw a fierce light flash in the black panther's eyes, and his entire body turned into a black afterimage and rushed straight towards Qin Dang. Mo Jue pulled Qin Dang, who was frightened and overwhelmed, and let him hide behind him, staring at the black panther who rushed over with his eyes, his hands clenched into fists to accumulate strength.
At this time, Fan Wenxuan stepped forward, and the long knife in his hand slashed out a knife light, slashing down in front of Mo Jue. The long knife fell, and the panther rushed right into the path of the sword light. The timing was perfect, and a moment later, Mo Jue was going to face the Black Panther. A moment earlier, before the panther stepped forward, the knife had already fallen.
Just when a few people thought that the black panther would definitely die, the black panther turned around and avoided the knife at a faster speed. Then he ran into the forest and disappeared.
Seeing this, Mo Jue and the two looked around vigilantly back to back, and Qin Dang hid between the two of them and shivered.
"The beast must not have left yet, and we must find an open place, where the forest is dark, and it is not good for us. ”
Fan Wenxuan, who was holding the long knife, said this, and Mo Jue nodded in agreement. After thinking for a while, he said: "Only the waterfall is empty nearby, Qin Dang, you help me, I will find out where the black panther is." ”
After speaking, close your eyes and perceive your surroundings with your spiritual sense. When Qin Dang heard Mo Jue's words, he forcibly held back the fear in his heart, and stood up to support Mo Jue. Fan Wenxuan glanced at Mo Jue in surprise, as if he couldn't understand what Mo Jue meant.
After a while, Mo Jue opened his eyes. He shook his head at the two of them, indicating that no trace of the other party had been found.
Fan Wenxuan frowned, and could only say helplessly: "No way, I'll open the way, Mo Jue you protect Qin Dang." ”
"Good. ”
After Mo Jue answered, Fan Wenxuan put the knife in front of him and walked out. There was a Qin Dang in the middle, because he was a few years younger than Mo Jue and the others, and he was very scared. Mo Jue was facing the forest, his hands clenched into fists, and he slowly retreated.
After a while, all three of them came to the edge of the waterfall. Scar's body was still lying there, and there was a faint smell of something fishy in the air.
The panther had been hiding in the woods, and had no intention of attacking the three of them. It was only when the three of them relaxed their vigilance that they rushed out of the forest, their sharp teeth heading straight for Mo Jue to bite.
"Eat me!"
A loud shout came, and Fan Wenxuan, who had been prepared for a long time, slashed with a backhand.
'Ding~'
Seeing that he couldn't dodge, the panther raised his front paws and slapped on the blade, making a crisp sound. The panther let out a low cry of pain and then retreated. Not far from a few people, he stared at Mo Jue.
This is a method that several people have discussed on the road to lure the enemy, although it seems that they have relaxed their guard, in fact, several people have been tense.
It was nightfall, and for the black panther who was nocturnal and nocturnal, it was the time of the peak of ferocity.
Fan Wenxuan's knife left a deep wound on its claws, and the overflowing bright red made the fierce light in the black panther's eyes even stronger.
And Fan Wenxuan was also uncomfortable, a force of countershock came from the knife, shaking his right hand numb.
Rubbing his sour hands, Fan Wenxuan took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "This beast is not simple, it should be enlightened." Give it thirty or fifty years, and maybe it will become a demon. It's troublesome this time...."
Hearing Fan Wenxuan's words, Mo Jue took a closer look at the black panther and found that the other party's claws were covered with a layer of aura. At the time of the confrontation, there was a flash of light on the black panther's claws, otherwise it would have been broken long ago.
Just when the three of them and one beast were stalemate, Qin Dang noticed that something was wrong. That is, no matter what the situation is, the panther's eyes are always on Mo Jue. After hesitating for a while, he and Mo Jue talked about it.
When Fan Wenxuan heard this, he seemed to remember something. He said to Mo Jue: "What about that token, didn't you lose it, did you?" ”
Mo Jue also reacted, and when he took the token just now, he always felt a strange smell on it. A trace of doubt flashed in Mo Jue's heart, but he still took out the token from his arms.
When the panther saw the token, his eyes lit up. Regardless of Fan Wenxuan, who was on guard with a knife on the side, he rushed towards Mo Jue again. It's just that this time its speed was a little faster, and before Fan Wenxuan could react, the black panther had already arrived in front of Mo Jue's eyes.
In a panic, Mo Jue threw a punch and hit the panther in the stomach. It's just that he himself was hit by the black panther and retreated again and again
After a few steps, I realized that I had reached the edge of the cliff, and I was only a few steps away from falling.
Fan Wenxuan finally reacted at this time, and waved the long knife in his hand, forcing the black panther back. shouted in his mouth: "Hurry up and lose the token, there must be something wrong with it!"
Ink heard this and dropped the token down the waterfall. It's just that the panther glanced at the token, and then turned his head to stare at Mo Jue. Slowly bowed down, revealing sharp fangs, and demonstrated to the three of them.
Looking at the fierce light in the eyes of the black panther, the three of them felt bad, but there was no good way to break the game.
The panther let out a low roar, and the surrounding aura was induced, gathering on the panther's claws, emitting a faint light in the dim night.
A trace of uneasiness rose in Mo Jue's heart, and just as he wanted to say something to Fan Wenxuan, the black panther turned into a black shadow and rushed towards the three of them at an extremely fast speed. In just a few breaths, he came to Fan Wenxuan's body and bit straight at his throat.
"Be careful!"
Mo Jue reminded loudly, but as soon as the words fell, the black panther had already arrived in front of him. In a hurry, Fan Wenxuan could only set up a long knife in front of him, which could withstand the impact of the black panther.
It's just that under the force, Fan Wenxuan fell to the ground and rolled with the black panther. Fan Wenxuan just wanted to restrain the black panther, when a sense of frustration came from under him, and he actually rolled off the cliff with the black panther.
Fan Wenxuan was shocked in his heart, he was afraid that it would be more than auspicious this time, and the long knife in his hand was thrown in the direction of Mo Jue, and he seemed to be saying something with his mouth open. However, the roar of the waterfall was too loud for Mo Jue and Qin Dang to hear it really.
In the blink of an eye, Fan Wenxuan and the black panther disappeared in front of the two.
"Brother Xuan!"
Qin Dang was in a hurry, gritted his teeth, and jumped down. A long knife fell, slanting diagonally into the ground. Mo Jue didn't seem to have reacted to this change, and looked at the long knife in a daze.
A cool breeze blew, and Mo Jue came back to his senses from the shock. He looked around hesitantly, then turned his head to look in the direction of Dao Yuan Peak, and sighed slightly. He stepped forward and drew his long knife, and jumped down as well.
In the mountains and forests in another place, Qi is walking slowly. A folding fan waved lightly in his hand, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, as if he was in a good mood.
A figure rushed from behind him, and Qi Zheng heard the voice, stopped and turned around.
I saw a man coming from the forest, walking in front of Qi Zheng and kneeling on the ground. He took something out of his bosom and said, "My lord, the matter has been done..."
If Mo Jue is here, he will be shocked. Because the man was dressed exactly like Mo Jue, and his body exuded the same strange fragrance as on the token.
Qi Zheng took the thing from the man's hand, and by the moonlight, he found that it was actually a panther cub. I'm asleep at the moment, and it's so cute.
Qi Zheng waved his hand casually: "Well, stand down.."
The man did not move, still half-kneeling, his hands clasped into fists in a respectful gesture.
"Huh, what's the matter?"
Qi Zheng said as he said that the panther cub was held in his hand with one hand and gently stroked its hair with the other.
The man hesitated for a moment and asked, "My lord, there is something unknown to my subordinates. That Mo Jue's strength is just quenching bones, and his subordinates can kill him. And why bother.... Why bother?"
When Qi Zheng heard this, he smiled slightly: "You don't understand, he can die at anyone's hands, but he can't die at my hands." Don't ask, don't ask next time. Do you understand?"
When he said the latter sentence, he said it in a very gentle tone. The man felt a cold air rising from his heart, and hurriedly replied, "My subordinates don't dare..."
"Then your plan is too casual, aren't you?
At this moment, a voice sounded, and a person slowly walked out of the forest on the side. The visitor was dressed in a gorgeous costume, holding a folding fan in his hand, with a gentle smile on his face, and the purple feathers on his sleeves looked a little bewitching in the moonlight.
Unexpectedly, it is also Qi Zheng....
