Chapter 196: Appearing
No matter how Hu Yan asked, the three of them seemed to have a unified opinion, and they were unanimously silent about Hu Yan. Let the nonsense scratch his ears and cheeks in a hurry, and do not reveal the secret.
Although Hu Yan was anxious, he was helpless, since others were unwilling to tell him, he didn't force it, and walked forward full of grievances.
Seeing that Hu Yan's face was not good, Zhuang Bai ran forward with a smile and teased: "What's the matter, you're unhappy?"
Hu Yan shrugged his shoulders disapprerovingly and said, "Am I such a stingy person?"
Zhuang Bai grinned and said, "Brother Hu is not a stingy person. ”
Hu Yan shook his head, suddenly remembered something, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Brother Zhuang, according to what you said before, the seven-layer soldier and the seven-star sword kill people without blood, why did there be a deviation, and finally a jumping corpse came out to block the way?"
When Zhuang Bai heard this, he immediately put away his teasing heart, touched his chin, and pondered: "If you don't mention it, I forgot about this stubble! I don't know the reason, but judging from the method of arranging the formation, this must be an ambush formation on all sides." However, these seventh-story soldiers were replaced by jumping corpses, which was beyond my expectations. ”
Hu Yan thought for a while and said, "Isn't it that mysterious person who changed the layout and wanted to catch the people who broke into the ambush array on all sides by surprise?"
Zhuang Bai thought for a while and said: "This formation has its own layout of the formation, and if there is a slight mistake, it will not form a formation, and its power will be greatly reduced. Since he can set up these ten-sided ambush arrays, he naturally knows what is at stake. It will definitely not change the layout of the formation indiscriminately. ”
Hu Yan pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, there is only one possibility. ”
Zhuang Bai glanced at Hu Yan suspiciously, and said in a deep voice: "What is possible?"
Hu Yan raised his eyes and looked into the depths of the lifeless dense forest, and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Maybe we haven't entered the seventh layer yet. The jumping corpse we just met was just an episode. Or maybe it was just a place where the mysterious man suddenly discovered a corpse, and he used it to refine a powerful zombie. ”
When Zhuang Bai heard this, he pondered for a moment and said, "This is not impossible! I think that although the zombie is about to evolve into a jumping corpse, it is actually still a black zombie, and it should not be a long time to enter the corpse raising ground." ”
Suddenly, Zhuang Bai slapped his head as if he had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly realized: "Could it be that the mysterious person collected the blood of the boy and the girl in order to nourish this jumping corpse?"
Hu Yan hurriedly said: "Brother Zhuang, how do you say this?"
Zhuang Bai then said: "As far as I know, the art of soul cultivation focuses on the soul, but the requirements for blood are not recorded. In the previous murder cases, not only were the victims' souls extracted by the Maoshan Soul Separation Technique, but even the blood in the body was drained. Since the Soul Cultivation Technique doesn't require too much blood, what is he doing with blood? What can he do if it's not to feed zombies?"
After Zhuang Bai's analysis, Hu Yan suddenly became enlightened, nodded vigorously, and said: "Eight or nine is not far from ten." ”
Zhuang Bai, who figured this out, was immediately overjoyed, couldn't help touching the Qiankun bag, and said with a smile: "This mysterious person is too smart, but he made a wedding dress for me." The well-cultivated jumping corpse was obtained by me, and if he knew about it, he would definitely vomit three liters of blood in anger. ”
Hu Yan frowned and said, "Brother Zhuang, are you really going to leave that jumping corpse?"
Zhuang Bai naturally understood that Hu Yan had a grudge against this kind of demonic thing, so he said: "This zombie may not be a good thing for you, but for the Maoshan faction, although a zombie is an evil demon, it can also be accepted as the right way." As long as it is refined properly, it can not only be used as a town guard, but also as a puppet weapon. In times of crisis, release them and it will work wonders!"
Hu Yan opened his mouth, but swallowed the words that came to his mouth raw.
Seeing this, Zhuang Bai smiled and patted Hu Yan's shoulder and said, "Are you afraid that you won't be able to control this zombie?"
Hu Yan nodded, which was kind of an acknowledgement.
Zhuang Bai smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have my own way to refine it, as long as I refine its demonic nature, it will be controlled by me, and then it will only follow the order, and it will no longer be the evil thing that kills people and sucks blood." ”
Seeing that Zhuang Bai said loudly, Hu Yan was also much relieved. For Zhuang Bai, Hu Yan believed him in his heart, let alone refining a zombie and taking it for his own use, even if Zhuang Bai said that he wanted to go to the sky to slay the dragon, Hu Yan would not feel that it was a desolate talk.
Hu Yan looked up at the sky, it was not early, and he couldn't help but sink in his heart and said: "Brother Zhuang, in this way, we are still on the sixth layer, it seems that we have to speed up, and now there is not much time left for us." ”
When Zhuang Bai heard this, he was also a little anxious. As Hu Yan said, the episode of jumping corpses to block the road just now has consumed a lot of their time, and in two hours, the sky will be bright, and it will obviously be unrealistic for them to catch the mysterious person unknowingly.
So he said, "Then we have to hurry." ”
Everyone was about to rush forward, but Lu Yi grabbed Hu Yan and Zhuang Bai, and said in a deep voice: "Someone is coming......
Hu Yan's body shook, and he hurriedly lowered his body with Zhuang Bai. But not far away, a man in black clothes and black robes floated in. But looking at it like that, it doesn't seem that the whereabouts of Hu Yan and the others have been found.
When the man in black floated closer, Lu Yi said in a deep voice: "It's him, this person is the one who conspired with Leng Jun that night!"
When everyone heard this, they were secretly shocked in their hearts.
Zhuang Bai looked at the mysterious person not far away, frowned, and said, "What is the reason why he is here on this big night?"
People are not as good as heaven, no one expected that everyone had not yet broken into the tenth layer of the formation, and they met this mysterious person halfway, and for a while they were at a loss like a child stealing fruit who was caught in front of him.
The man floated down to the corpse ground, took out a simple utensil from his arms, and muttered: "It's another full moon night, you guy can finally shed the black hair on his body and become a real jumping corpse, and it's not in vain that I take care of you so hard." Come out, I've brought your favorite Pure Yin Blood, which is a great tonic that will allow you to improve your skills as soon as possible. ”
As he spoke, the man held the utensils and walked slowly to the dark crack in the ground, but by the bright moonlight, he found that there was nothing in the crack, and he was immediately shocked. Hurriedly looked around for traces of the jumping corpse.
"It's not good, did you let it run?" The man searched around and didn't see any trace of the jumping corpse, and couldn't help but panic a little, but quickly calmed down: "If it runs out of the ten-sided ambush formation, it will definitely trigger the formation enchantment, and with its current strength, it is impossible to break through the protection of the formation enchantment." ”
Thinking of this, the man hurriedly bent down on the ground and searched, and after a while, he found a yellow talisman and some scattered glutinous rice in a tuft of grass, and immediately exclaimed: "Damn, someone actually broke into the ambush array on all sides. ”
As he spoke, his body shook and he glanced around vigilantly.
At this time, Zhuang Bai made up his mind, jumped out from behind the grass, and said with a long sword: "It turns out that all this is done by you, a demon!" He is not afraid of revealing his whereabouts, the purpose of their trip is to catch the real murderer, and now that the real murderer is in front of him, he has nothing to hide, it is better to fight with a real knife and a real gun, than to break through a few layers of formations to find his traces.
The man obviously didn't expect Zhuang Bai to hide here, and was slightly stunned: "You, who are you, why are you here?" Obviously, he was a little surprised that Zhuang Bai could break through the formation without him knowing.
Zhuang Bai didn't hide his selfishness, and said loudly: "Disciple of the Maoshan faction, Zhuang Bai!"
"It turned out to be Maoshan Xiao'er, hmph, what did you do with my jumping corpse?" The man's voice was gloomy and hoarse, as if he had just climbed up from the ground.
Zhuang Bai sneered and said, "Such an evil thing, naturally it can't be kept!"
"You, you killed it?" the man's voice trembled and he was furious.
"Such a thing, I am naturally reluctant to destroy it like this, it is now in my Qiankun bag, if you have the ability, you can come and get it!" Zhuang Bai patted the Qiankun bag hanging on his waist, and waved to the mysterious man defiantly.
When the man saw this, he was immediately furious, pointed at Zhuang Bai and said: "Hand over the jumping corpse, leave your whole corpse, if not, you will definitely be broken into ten thousand pieces." ”
Zhuang Bai sneered and said, "What a big breath, I want to see what you are capable of." As he spoke, he shook the long sword in his hand and flew towards the mysterious man.
"I can't do it!" the man snorted coldly, and the black sleeved robe was raised, and suddenly the wind was blowing, and a smell of decay came to his face, which made Zhuang Bai frown.
"Don't move at this time, when will you stay?" At this time, Zhuang Bai suddenly shouted, but saw three figures scurrying up in all directions, and actually surrounded the black-robed mysterious person.
It turned out that the reason why Zhuang Bai jumped out first just now was to attract the attention of the black-robed mysterious man, but the other three took the opportunity to go around behind the black-robed mysterious man and block his way.
The black-robed mysterious man obviously didn't expect that there were still a lot of people hidden around here, and he was secretly shocked, but soon found that there were only three yellow-haired children who had not dried up, and immediately laughed: "Just a few of you little hairy children, do you want to deal with me too?"
Of these four people, the eldest Zhuang Bai is only twenty years old, Jin Ningyun is only fifteen years old, Hu Yan is twelve years old, and Lu Yi looks even younger, in his eyes, they are just little children who have not grown any hair, and he doesn't take them seriously at all.
Everyone didn't answer, and under Zhuang Bai's order, they attacked the black-robed mysterious man in all directions.
After a night of running-in, the four of them have already had a heart-to-heart connection and tacit understanding. A look, a look, can be understood.
Attacking or defending, complementing each other, step by step, steady and steady, and even without panic.
I have to say that the skills of this black running mysterious person are really powerful, at least Hu Yan can feel that although this person's strength is not as good as that of Shentu Hongkuo, the senior brother of the Evil God Sect, it is not much different, and the four of them can't even take him for a while!
