Adventures in the Human World Chapter 20 The Caravan of the Dead
The sudden attack was completed in the blink of an eye, and when the fourth-level demon beast next to it woke up, its eyes immediately turned red, and it roared to the sky, giving up attacking Zhao Civic, and instead roared around looking for the person who could sneak attack, and the thick trees around it were also broken and collapsed by its arch. At this moment, a spirit sword gathered around the demon beast, and the slender sword body pierced the belly of the wild boar, and the demon beast that felt the threat instantly turned the pig's head, and its long fangs made an arc and smashed towards the spirit sword, and at the same time, its blood-red eyes stared fiercely at the location where the spirit sword appeared.
The moment the huge fangs were about to touch the spirit sword, the long sword was divided into three, one to meet the fangs, one to stab the demon beast's chest and abdomen, one flew up obliquely and then turned to the neck of the wild boar, the vengeful demon beast stared at the bushes in front of him, he was unexpected, and the move was old, the huge fangs smashed a spirit sword by inertia, turning into a little aura, the spirit sword that pierced the belly of the demon beast did not enter the boar's body a few inches, and then it was blocked by the hard pig skin, and finally dissipated. Only the spirit sword that slashed at the neck of the demon beast did not dissipate, and it slashed into the body of the boar at once, but the strength of the demon beast is that its own physique is far superior to that of ordinary humans, in addition to the sharp fangs of the wild boar, the skin and flesh are comparable to the human magic weapon, so although Zhou Xiang released a breath of three clear breath to prevent the boar from being injured, but it is difficult to enter the sword after the sword sword slashes into the neck of the demon beast half a foot, and the mane and hard animal skin behind the wild boar's neck will offset the sword qi turned into spiritual energy, and the body of the sword is blocked by the demon qi and flesh, in the case of slightly inferior cultivation, Zhou Xiang failed to kill the demon beast directly, but it has also seriously injured the other partyγ
The viscous blood flowed down the boar's neck, but the seriously injured demon beast did not wilt, but entered a state of madness, it spread its four hooves and slammed into the direction of the spirit sword, under the impact of the huge body, the ground was arched out of a deep ditch, and the sound of "boom" continued to sound, and the demon beast directly opened a wide road in the forest. But hundreds of zhang later, the demon beast still hadn't found the human who had attacked it, so it turned around and rushed straight in the direction of Zhao Civic.
Zhao Civic, who was about to escape, witnessed everything that happened in an instant, and his brain was a little unable to turn around, the two wild boars that were invincible just now were killed in the blink of an eye, and the other was seriously injured, if it wasn't for the person who made the shot and shouted in advance, "Brother Zhao, don't panic", he would have thought that it was a fifth-level demon beast appeared.
It seems that the little life has finally been saved! Zhao Civic was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, by the way to see who saved him, but unexpectedly the angry demon beast turned around and killed back, he hurriedly flew high with his sword, just over the top of the tree, and turned back to see that the huge body of the demon beast suddenly began to tremble, and then looked up to the sky and let out a terrible scream, and then the four hooves fell to the ground softly, and arched a large piece of dirt unabatedly, and finally stopped at the feet of Zhao Civic, and after his ears shook, he did not move at all, and the demon beast's mouth, A large amount of beast blood began to gush out from under his body, and soon the surrounding land was stained red.
Zhao Civic couldn't figure out what was going on, but he saw a monk suddenly appear next to the demon beast, and then a spirit sword flew out of the boar's body and fell into the hands of the visitor, and then the monk looked up at him, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
The person who came was Zhou Xiang who had performed a thousand illusions, although he seriously injured the demon beast with his first sword, he couldn't kill it, fortunately, the angry wild boar launched an attack regardless of it, Zhou Xiang hurriedly hid aside, and when the demon beast turned around, the sword attacked again, but this time it was changed to a straight stab, and the flying sword pierced from the weakest throat of the boar, just as the demon beast rushed forward, and he knocked the sword into the body, Zhou Xiang took the opportunity to control the sword body to stir around in the body of the demon beast, and the fourth-level demon beast finally died on the spot.
Seeing Zhou Xiang's face, Zhao Civic was in a little trance, and finally his eyes lit up, and he finally remembered, isn't this the Zhou Daoyou who rescued him and Zhao Siguang three years ago. He immediately became excited, and hurriedly fell to the ground and knelt down on one knee, and saluted Zhou Xiang: "It turned out to be Brother Zhou, I didn't expect to meet you, thank you for saving your life twice." β
Zhou Xiang stretched out his hand in the air and held Zhao Civic up: "Why does Brother Zhao bother to make this big gift, Zhou is a guest of your caravan, and it is within his duty to help him." β
Zhao Civic was stunned when he heard this: "Brother Zhou is too polite, he was rescued by Daoyou three years ago, and he was lucky to survive in the next, but I didn't expect that three years later, Zhou Daoyou saved Zhao again, this kindness Zhao will never forget, if there is a place to be useful in the future, Zhao will go to the soup and go to the fire, and he will never refuse!"
Zhou Xiang saw Zhao Civic's serious appearance, hurriedly waved his hand, and changed the topic: "Brother Zhao, I haven't seen you for three years, your cultivation has gone further, it's really gratifying!
"Alas!" Hearing Zhou Xiang mention Zhao Siguang, Zhao Civic's expression darkened: "Brother Siguang, he has already been feathered!"
"Huh?" Although Zhou Xiang was prepared, he was still a little surprised to hear it with his own ears.
Zhao Civic took out an object from the storage bag, wrote and drew on it, and then used the spiritual power to transmit it. Zhou Xiang glanced at it and found that it looked like a communication weapon given to him by Zhao Siguang at the beginning. After doing these things, Zhao Civic said to Zhou Xiang: "Junior brother first inform the caravan to lift the alert and come here to meet." β
Zhou Xiang nodded.
Then Zhao Civic continued: "Thanks to Brother Zhou's rescue back then, Senior Brother Siguang and I escaped by luck. Unexpectedly, just out of the palace, he fell into another trap. In desperation, the formation suddenly disappeared, and the two of us hurriedly found a way to leave, and entered a room by mistake, and were teleported to the outside world, and it was not far from the southern district. The two of us hurriedly summoned the family, and then were sent to the clan for treatment. Alas, the loss of Shouyuan is far from being recoverable by ordinary medicines, and the elders of the clan reluctantly bought the elixir of improving cultivation for the two of them to take, hoping to increase longevity and prolong their breath with the help of improving their cultivation. β
"But because Senior Brother Siguang has been stagnant in the middle stage of foundation building for too long, although he has the help of the pill, he can't step through that hurdle after all, and he has been feathered in only half a year. Due to the fact that the younger brother made a lot of preparations for the bottleneck at that time, coupled with the support of the family, he was lucky to be successfully promoted a year later, and the lost longevity also recovered. After recuperating for a period of time, he was assigned by the clan to be in charge of the affairs of the Fang City. In the past few years, the caravan of the Zhao family crossing the mountain range has never encountered anything similar to that year, and the younger brother has also recently decided to take the trade route again, and by the way, he misses Senior Brother Siguang, but he almost died this time, but fortunately, Brother Zhou appeared in time. You are truly my precious person!"
Zhao Civic briefly intercepted and told the story eloquently. Only then did Zhou Xiang understand why he hadn't received Erzhao's summons at the beginning, and it turned out that the two of them were confused by the maze.
Zhou Xiang further deduced that it should be after killing Gu Qiujiang himself, he broke the internal formation prohibition, and the two brothers got out of the maze and were teleported out in a daze. Thinking of this, he also confirmed that there was a teleportation array for leaving in the Gu Qiujiang Cave Mansion, but he didn't find it, and he dug a passage, which was quite ridiculous to think about.
After sighing, Zhao Civic asked, "I look at Brother Zhou's cultivation, and it seems that he has improved again, but I don't know where I have been practicing all these years?"
Zhou Xiang haha: "At the beginning, I was also in the maze for a long time, and then suddenly there was a flower in front of me, and it seemed that the big array had been broken, so I looked around looking for a way out and walked out in a daze." As a result, I couldn't see your brothers, and I didn't know where to look for it, so I walked out along the secret path. Over the years, I have traveled around, increased my knowledge, and recently came to the mountains to look for some medicinal materials, but unexpectedly met Brother Zhao again. β
"Fate! It's definitely fate!" Zhao Civic sighed, "When I met Brother Zhou, I made the younger brother get out of a big trouble; I feel that following Brother Zhou will definitely have an adventure. I don't know what your plans are in the future, the younger brother is ready to complete this family task and follow Brother Zhou, I hope you can accept the younger brother. Zhao Civic said very sincerely.
Zhou Xiang was a little speechless when he heard this, although he now belonged to the disciples of the Sanqing Sect, he was actually similar to a loose cultivator. If you have another person with you, it is really inconvenient. Moreover, Zhao Civic may also be on a whim, and if he encounters setbacks in the future or learns that his sect is just a third-rate small sect, wouldn't it be very embarrassing for both parties to turn around and leave when the time comes. However, the other party may also have good intentions, and he can't hurt his feelings, thinking about it, Zhou Xiang said: "Brother Zhao, I am really flattered by what you say, but there are still some things to deal with below." It's better to wait for Brother Zhao to complete the family task, and then ask for the opinions of the clan, if the family does not object, you can come to me in Sanqingmen, Shuizuo District, and then I can introduce Brother Zhao to join the door, how do you see this arrangement?"
