Chapter 41: Murder with a knife
The strange appearance of the stone tablet, but in the face of the temptation of the fairy treasure, who cares. Looking at the glittering fairy treasure, everyone had a look of greed on their faces. There is only an ink knife, unmoved.
It's not that he doesn't want to be interested in Xianbao, that's what he came here for. It's just that on top of that immortal treasure, the ink knife can't feel half a point of immortal power fluctuations, which makes him suspicious in his heart.
"Don't move. The ink knife grabbed Guo Xiaofei beside her and prevented her from going to get the treasure.
Liao Chutian, who was on the side, also stopped when he heard the sound of the ink knife.
"What's wrong?" asked Guo Xiaofei.
Modao didn't answer, and looked at the man in the distance who had been making things difficult for him before.
The man moved quickly, as if the wounds on his body were just decorations. An arrow stepped in front of the stone monument, and the man's expression was slightly distorted. The ecstasy in my heart was finally irrepressible, and I looked up to the sky and laughed. The man has been waiting for an opportunity to soar into the sky, this moment he has been waiting for too long, today it has finally been realized, how can he not be happy, how can he not laugh.
The man grabbed the fairy treasure with his hands, a knife, a treasure knife that shimmered with glass light. But when the man grasped the hilt of the knife, his face suddenly changed, and he became painful, and his eyes were filled with fear.
The next moment, I saw that the knife disappeared in an instant. The stele melted into sand and trapped the man's hand.
Not only that, but the sand seemed to be alive, slowly wriggling, gradually devouring the man's body. The sound of flesh squeezing was heard, and between breaths, the sand was covered with blood.
"Save ...... Save me......" the man cried.
Not only him, but the rest of the people are also in different situations. They were swallowed up by the sand.
Guo Xiaofei wanted to rush out to save people, but was stopped by the ink knife.
"Let me pass!" Guo Xiaofei yelled. I was extremely disappointed with the ink knife in my heart. "Are you going to die again? ”
"It has nothing to do with me whether they live or die, I am only responsible for protecting you. Mo Dao said calmly.
"I misread you!" Guo Xiaofei struggled, trying to save people. However, his strength was too small, and he was never able to break free.
At this moment, suddenly a screaming voice came.
I saw that the woman who was taken as a hostage by Wang Chong cut off her arm with a sword.
Breaking off her arm, the woman instantly broke free from the devouring sand. But before she could escape, the next moment the sand pounced on the woman.
Cut off one arm, bleeding like an infusion. The woman had long since lost her strength. But that doesn't mean she's going to die.
Gritting her teeth, the woman used all her strength to move on the ground. But her speed was so slow that she was enveloped in the sand in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, just as the sand was about to devour the woman, the ink knife moved.
With the force under his feet, he quickly came to the woman, and the ink knife reached out to grab the woman, and then retreated.
At the same time as the ink knife retreated, Nasha also chased after him.
Like the roar of the waves, pressing against the ink knife.
With one arm, the ink knife threw the woman out and threw it to Guo Xiaofei. Then move in the opposite direction.
Perhaps the majesty was provoked, Nasha abandoned the woman and threw herself at the ink knife.
The sand moved fast, but the ink knife was faster. From beginning to end, Nasha could only follow behind the ink knife, not a single point.
But although the ink knife is fast, its physical strength is limited. If you run away, you will eventually be caught up by the sand.
Turning to stop, the ink knife swung its sword at the sand.
The sword went into the sand, but the sand did not stop. Still pounced on the ink knife, and at the same time a corrosive sound came. In an instant, I saw that patches of rust appeared on the sword in the ink knife's hand.
With just a slight force, the sword broke in response.
The ink knife turned around and fled again.
This time, Inkknife didn't try to attack the sand again. Instead, he took the sand and approached the man who had been taunting him earlier.
When the sand gave up the woman to chase him, an idea welled up in Modao's heart. That sand only wants to kill, and it doesn't seem to matter who he kills. At this moment, Modao decided to borrow a knife to kill.
Approaching the man, the ink knife stood still, waiting for the sand.
"Save ...... Save me......" The man said with difficulty, looking at the ink knife. His entire arm had been devoured, but even so, the man never thought of breaking his arm to save himself like the woman, but kept screaming.
In the face of the man's call for help, the ink knife was unmoved. It's not because the man had been targeting him before.
For those who seek death, the ink knife will never be saved. But for those who survive, the ink knife will be saved. That was the case with the woman before.
Being held hostage by the sword without a trace of resistance, this is seeking death, and the ink knife is not saved. Swallowed by the sand, fleeing with a broken arm, this is survival, and the ink knife will be saved.
Never a ruthless person, never a cold-blooded heart. The ink knife just has its own guidelines.
The next moment, the sand finally came behind the ink knife. Like a great wave rolling and pouring down.
At the moment when the sand fell, the distance was a fraction of a second, and the ink knife pulled out and quickly retreated. The sand fell on the man.
Suddenly, a terrible scream came.
I saw that the two lumps of sand were like wild dogs competing for food at this moment, constantly tearing at the man. At the same time, there was a sound of chewing.
After a few moments, the screaming stopped, and the man was torn in half.
Devouring the man's corpse, the sand seemed to be finally satisfied, scattered and melted into the desert, leaving only a blood-red color and patches of white bones.
As for the other four, they had already turned into half-human, half-bone corpses.
"Let's go. The crisis was resolved, and the ink knife came to Guo Xiaofei and said.
"You, you killed him!" Guo Xiaofei looked at the ink knife in disbelief. At this moment, she suddenly didn't know how to face the ink knife.
The previous action of the ink knife to save people made her feel that the ink knife was not so cold-blooded. But when he saw the ink knife borrowing the knife to kill people, this idea was instantly extinguished.
"You...... Hey......" Liao Chutian shook his head helplessly. Liao Chutian didn't know whether he should blame the ink knife or not, he just felt that the ink knife method made him unacceptable.
"Thank you......" came the woman's faint voice. She only has gratitude in her heart for the ink knife. After all, the ink knife saved her.
"Not necessarily. Mo Dao said lightly.
"Let's go our separate ways. Finally, Guo Xiaofei made up his mind and said. She really didn't want to walk with the ink knife, and she couldn't face the ink knife at the moment. She has been looking for excuses and reasons for what Modao has done in her heart, but in the end, Guo Xiaofei found that no matter what reason she used, she couldn't convince herself.
"Is this your choice?" asked Inkknife. After all, there is an agreement between him and Guo Xiaofei, and Modao will never do anything about betrayal.
"Yes. Guo Xiaofei replied.
"Good. After speaking, the ink knife turned to leave. At this moment, he has no reason to protect Guo Xiaofei.
"Hey, you're leaving like this?" Liao Chutian wanted to stop the ink knife, but was stopped by Guo Xiaofei.
"Let him go. Guo Xiaofei said.
Watching the ink knife gradually disappear from the back, Guo Xiaofei suddenly felt a trace of loss and a trace of disappointment in his heart. She wanted to keep the ink knife, but at this point she couldn't find an excuse for herself to do so.
