Chapter 128: Suffering
When Sima Rong said the words "Demon Cultivation", the Tu Yao Immortal immediately left Sima Rong and chased after him.
"A mere demon cultivator dared to break into the barracks alone. The figure immortal shouted.
And the direction he was going was the opposite of the barracks, the withered woods.
Bai Junqian frowned slightly when he heard this, thinking to himself how could a normal demon cultivator break into the military camp alone, or it was a trap......
"Don't chase after it, there's a good chance there will be a trap. Sima Rong shouted, which just confirmed Bai Junqian's thoughts.
It's just that Bai Junqian looked at the figure of the Tu Yao Immortal gradually disappearing in the dark, and it was too late to ask in detail, so he said to Chang Yuechen and them:
"I'll catch up with you too, don't come with me yet. ”
Then he chased after him like an arrow from a string.
Bai Junqian and Tu Yao Immortals, both of them poured into the place where the light of the barracks could not shine.
But when it was really dark, they could only slow down the pace of pursuit.
"General Sima said that this is a trap, so let's not catch up with it for the time being. ”
With that, Bai Junqian burned a flame in the palm of his hand, illuminating the surroundings of the two of them, and every time they took a step in a forest, they could hear the sound of stepping on rotten fallen leaves.
Tu Yao Immortal snorted coldly and said, "If you don't dare, don't come with me, I'm afraid I won't be able to deal with a demon cultivator?"
"It's not ......."
Before the words fell, the figure immortal dodged again, and continued to chase in an unknown direction.
The flame in Bai Junqian's hand was also extinguished by the wind he brought, but he didn't have time to cast the spell again, and he used his eyesight to rush in the darkness with the moonlight sprinkled from the sky, but he gradually couldn't hear the footsteps of the Tuyao Immortal, and the two seemed to be scattered.
As soon as he reacted and thought that he should slow down, he was tripped by Sima something.
After re-letting the flame gas in his hand remove, Bai Junqian understood what was stumbling over him.
The smell of blood was so strong that even the wind could not blow away, and the ground was so sticky that it creaked when stepped on.
At this time, a land stained with blood - as far as the eye could see, it was full of corpses, and the corpses all over the ground were still soft, and the residual temperature was not cold.
Looking at it, Bai Junqian couldn't help but be horrified in his heart.
The costumes of these corpses are like those worn by ordinary people.
This...... How can it?
At that moment, a soft, painful cough sounded not far in front of him.
Bai Junqian quickly moved forward, illuminating the line of sight in front of him with a ball of fire.
In the middle of the pile of corpses, the figure immortal was half-sitting, and the blood had blurred half of his face. A sharp sword was stuck in his shoulder, and the wound kept bleeding out.
"Tu Yao Immortal!"
Bai Junqian couldn't believe his eyes, and his whole body trembled, obviously he had been separated from the Tuyao Immortal for such a short time, and the Tuyao Immortal was attacked.
After hearing Bai Junqian's shout, the Tuyao Immortal opened his eyes with great difficulty, glanced at Bai Junqian, and lowered it again.
"What's going on?!" Bai Junqian asked as he bent his knees to help the Tuyao Immortal heal his wounds. "Is it you who attacked the demon cultivator?"
Hearing the words "Demon Cultivator", the shoulders of the Tuyao Immortal trembled slightly, and his eyelids were raised, but they did not open them.
After waiting for a long time, Bai Junqian didn't hear what he said.
In the blink of an eye, the flame in Bai Junqian's palm began to extinguish again. He shook his hand, and the last bit of fire disappeared, and he concentrated on healing the Tu Yao Immortal.
However, just as darkness fell, Bai Junqian heard two words finally spit out from the mouth of the Tu Yao Immortal.
"Watching demons. ”
Bai Junqian was stunned for an instant.
........
After a while, Chang Yuechen and Sima Rong saw that the two of them still hadn't come back, so they walked in that direction, and halfway, when Chang Yuechen and they couldn't determine the direction, it was Sima Rong who took the lead and continued to move forward.
"This ......" Sima Rong was holding a torch in his hand, followed by several sergeants with torches.
This couldn't help but make Chang Yuechen a little surprised, how did he know the direction?
This doubt did not last long, it was replaced by shock, and when they had to stop, they saw a corpse in front of them, and the smell of blood was even more disgusting.
And after seeing the seriously injured Tuyao Immortal, everyone didn't speak, but just shook the sword in their hands and looked around.
And Chang Yuechen, Yin, Xin, and Shun hurriedly rushed to Bai Junqian to see if Bai Junqian was injured.
"Master, are you alright? What happened?!"
"It's fine. Bai Junqian replied.
Seeing this scene, Sima Rong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Everyone, there is a lot of offense. ”
Hearing this, Hua Wei Immortal said in a somewhat cold tone: "Do you have something to hide from us?"
Sima Rong lowered his head and did not veto, and said after a while: "As you can see, the corpses here...... All the people of the city before us. The demon cultivators have already controlled this city, and the corpses of more than a dozen people appear here late every night for seven days. ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at the city behind them, which had no light, and thought that everyone had died out in the middle of the night, but they didn't expect it to be like this.
"Why don't you stop it?" Bai Junqian said with some excitement after helping the Tu Yao Immortal up.
"We also received the news from the main city ten days ago, but when we arrived, the gates were closed and there was no sound. Sima Rong gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Until they keep discarding their bodies in this forest, and they also attract our people, let us deliberately discover ......"
"In the process, you didn't attack the city?"
A voice asked. The crowd focused on the first man standing on the left, about fifty years old, with a pointed chin, no beard, triangular eyes, a long nose, and an upturned nose, looking very haughty.
His name is Qu Zhiping, who is the master of Aotianmen, and he always stands on the same side as the Tuyao Immortals, and opposes Bai Junqian. But in terms of his life's merits, he should also be an upright and intelligent person.
Sima Rong said in a low voice, "We don't know how many demon cultivators there are on the other side. But when it comes to finding out that they control the whole city and have so many people as hostages, they must be a lot of them. ”
"Why did you stop us from coming out earlier, did you not want us to get involved in this matter?" Chang Yuechen said with a raised voice.
"That's not the case...... Sima Rong was about to open his mouth to retort, but Chang Yuechen continued: "That means you know that there is a trap here, and then stop it?"
Hearing this, Sima Rong smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Actually, there are both. When we found out about this before, we sent people to chase after us, but the sergeants who went to chase after them, whether it was one, ten, or twenty...... Without exception, they were all killed. It seems that I am very incompetent, and going to the strange white fog today is the only clue I can find in the past ten days. ”
"A few days ago, our general inquired that before this Yunyao City was occupied by Demon Cultivators, it was shrouded in white fog for several days, so we will set off to Shuiliang City today to check. ”
A young sergeant said.
Sima Rong frowned and added, "However, I didn't find any clues. My subordinates and I have surveyed Shuiliang City for dozens of miles, but there are no other suspicious people except for you. ”
The voices of discussion gradually rose.
After a long time, everyone returned to the barracks.
Sima Rong strengthened his precautions, and Bai Junqian and his party did not dare to relax at all, and patrolled with the sergeants in the barracks.
They were going to wait until dawn to go to Yunyao City to investigate.
