Chapter 341: Fear of the Unknown
Subsequently, between Xu Yang and Zhao Qianru, the distance between Xu Yang and Zhao Qianru was once again five or six zhang.
In this way, the distance between them is already forty zhang away.
For the sake of the safety of both parties, Xu Yang will not continue to stay away from Miss Zhao.
In the mountains and forests in early autumn, there are many wild fruits that are ripe or about to ripen.
This season, the squirrels and birds in the mountains and forests also begin to get busy.
Autumn has come, will winter be far away?
These small animals in the mountains and forests have to store the necessary food for the coming winter.
Coupled with the mountains and forests here, few people have set foot in the first place, and these small animals are not particularly afraid of people.
So even though Xu Yang, an uninvited guest, passed by them, the squirrels and birds just avoided it for a moment and continued their harvesting work.
Five-mile road, said long is not long, short is not short.
For these martial arts people, even if they have to focus most of their attention on the work of searching for the murderer, it will not take too much time.
Seeing that the previously agreed distance was almost over, there was still no trace of those murderers.
Xu Yang's heart was somewhat disappointed.
Everyone in the cult can be punished.
Zhao Weiming's desire to take revenge, he couldn't empathize with it, but the two corpses of young children who fell in a pool of blood aroused Xu Yang's desire to kill.
Xu Yang felt that using the words beast to describe those murderers was a waste of the meaning of the two words themselves.
Zhao Qianru, who was forty zhang away, was also disappointed at this time.
The faint hope is too slim after all, and if they go half a mile further, their search journey will be over.
Even if there was a pleasant sound of running water in front of him, it couldn't make this Miss Zhao happy.
Suddenly, to her left, there seemed to be a cuckoo call.
Zhao Qianru immediately became vigilant.
Before that, Xu Yang had agreed with her that in case of danger, he would remind her with the cuckoo's call.
When she concentrated, she began to listen.
But she found that in her ears, in addition to the sound of the spring water, there were only the ordinary bird calls all over the mountain forest.
Zhao Qianru wondered a little in her heart, could it be that her ears heard it wrong just now?
In this way, she is a little undecided.
According to the rules, after hearing the cuckoo's code, she had to hurry to the other side to transmit this dangerous signal.
But now, Zhao Qianru didn't know if what she heard just now was the voice of a cuckoo?
Miss Zhao hesitated here, but Xu Yang was a little sitting.
Seeing that he was about to finish the agreed journey, Xu Yang, who was a little disappointed in his heart, was a little distracted.
As a result, he could have found something strange at about thirty zhang, but he actually entered within twenty zhang and found the abnormal situation in front of him.
At this time, Xu Yang's heart was already secretly scolding his mother.
Because in a tree hole less than twenty zhang away from him, there were actually two people hiding.
Of course, this abnormality in front of him is not the reason why Xu Yang wants to scold his mother.
The reason why Xu Yang was depressed was purely because after he discovered the anomaly in front of him, he had just learned a cuckoo call, and the lean-looking guy on the opposite side actually stuck his head out of the tree hole with a vigilant face and glanced at his location.
This time, Xu Yangke didn't dare to act rashly anymore.
Between him and Zhao Qianru, they were forty zhang away.
It's quiet, Zhao Xiaoru definitely can't hear it.
But if you scream too loudly, you will definitely have to startle the snake.
Although he is not sure whether the two guys in the tree hole are the murderers of the tragedy.
But if it is, it's not good to be so startled.
You know, the cuckoo call just now can attract the attention of the other party.
From this, we can see the vigilance and extraordinariness of the other party.
But soon, Xu Yang knew that he had caught a big fish.
He felt that even if the other party was not a member of the White Lotus Sect, he had to be another cultist.
Because from a few short conversations between the other party, the word "Divine Religion", they have already said it three times.
On the rivers and lakes, people call the White Lotus Sect a cult, but the disciples of the White Lotus Sect call themselves gods.
Of course, relying only on such a word, Xu Yang is not enough to confirm the identity of the other party.
Next, Xu Yang also heard words such as "martyrdom" and "eradication of those who are not strong-willed" from their conversations.
It is impossible for ordinary Jianghu sects to advocate the concept of martyrdom.
The normal Jianghu sects are all people-oriented.
Ten years of trees, 100 years of people.
Cultivating a high-level disciple requires more than just time.
What's more, if the carefully cultivated disciples all run away to martyrdom, leaving only one head and a few elders, then what else do they have to do?
The reason why cults are called cults is because they do not scruple to preach with the blood of their fellow sects.
It is even said that they use this way of raising Gu regardless of personal life or death to maintain the renewal of their sect.
Just a moment later, Xu Yang turned from excitement after catching the big fish to surprise.
That's right, it's that kind of surprise feeling.
Because at this time, Xu Yang saw that on a cliff and stone wall about forty zhang away from him, someone actually pushed open a door.
Then, I saw two guys dressed as warriors walking out of the stone gate.
"I'll go for it, is this okay?" Xu Yang was stunned for a moment.
Originally, he thought that the two guys hiding in the hollow of the tree were two big fish.
Unexpectedly, these two were just a dessert before the meal.
I want to carve out such a stone door in the rock wall of the cliff, and there seems to be something else behind the door.
It's a big project.
It's impossible to rely on three or five people alone.
Hell, what kind of thing is this one or two big fish? It's just a big fish nest.
And most likely a big litter of sharks.
Xu Yang thought with some excitement.
It's a pity that Xu Yang is too far away from the stone gate to get a glimpse of it.
Otherwise, Xu Yang really wanted to use the Open Sky Eye to spy on the situation inside the stone gate.
But in the next second, Xu Yang directly cut off this thought in his heart.
Because at this time, I saw that in the stone gate that was open on the cliff, four or five figures came out one after another.
No, this place can't stay any longer.
There are so many people on the other side, whether it is a cult or not, it is not something that he can deal with alone.
In just a few moments, he had already found eight or nine people.
If there were more cultists living behind that stone gate, then none of them would be a match for others.
If it is more serious, whether their entire Canglongmen is an opponent or not, there are still two words.
After all, before the White Lotus Sect was far away, it could compete with the Yuntai Sect.
Even if the White Lotus Sect is not hidden behind the stone gate, will the master who can dig a hole in the stone wall be a small salted fish?
The answer is clearly no.
