Chapter 147 Nine people, ambush

"It's not very comfortable..."

Mu Shuangying's face was gloomy, and he took a few deep breaths, and finally calmed down, and then let go.

Then he got up, but he was facing her frosty complexion. Lu Chen knew that he was at a loss, so he didn't say much, just sat there in silence, waiting for Mu Shuangying's outburst and questioning.

Dao Xin swears, if it is violated, what the consequences will be, there are probably not many monks in the world who do not know, about 100 people, nine out of ten are very clear, but Lu Chen is the one who does not know. Since the mountains, no one has spoken to him about the consequences of swearing a Taoist heart, after all, the people he has seen and made friends with are friends rather than teachers, and naturally he has never thought of pointing out these things like common sense to him.

And now, because of this, the cracks that should not have been created have been growing larger under the friction again and again, which has also made the two of them unhappy on this island. Originally, with their strength, even if they didn't say they could do whatever they wanted, they didn't have to end up in such a situation at all, everything was too much to take for granted.

Among them, of course, there are reasons that Lu Chen doesn't know, and Mu Shuangying is also at fault.

"Forget it, I really don't know what to say. ”

Mu Shuangying gradually calmed down, and glanced at Lu Chen again, the grievances and embarrassment in her eyes made her not easy to attack. After all, the matter has come to this point, and it is pointless to comment on the fault of anyone, and now it is good news that the relationship between the two can be repaired.

"I'm going to have a good rest, just three hours, you are responsible for vigilance, do you have any opinions?"

Her eyes widened, but her anger still lingered.

"Nope. ”

Lu Chen naturally shook his head, not daring to disobey him.

They really need enough rest, after all, this month, it is just a matter of being vigilant against external threats, and they must always be vigilant that the people around them may suddenly make a move, and the fatigue of the nerves has already reached the limit. If you don't rest, you probably won't be able to respond to any situation in time after all, after all, cultivation is not beyond the realm of the world, after all, it is a mortal fetus in the flesh, and if you want to eat grains and grains, you also need enough relief.

found a good place, Mu Shuangying did not have a delicate atmosphere, so he took some weeds and spread them on at random and fell asleep. Three hours of rest was enough for her, but Lu Chen could only keep her eyes open and be vigilant to avoid any accidents.

This island is three hundred miles long, and apart from the wolves, counting the two of them, there are only thirty people.

It is not easy to find the traces of other people in such a large area, not to mention the complex terrain here, and no one knows where the others have gone. It's plains, it's hills, it's jungles, it's ice valleys... Half a year is long, and it is natural that it is not random to want to encounter others. On the other hand, this island has a prosperous qi and a strong aura, which makes it easier to practice with half the effort, and a large number of elixirs and strange herbs can also assist in cultivation.

This six months is a time for progress, a battle for victory, and a choice for all aspects.

If you are not careful, you can only be eliminated, and the result of elimination is death here, and most of the bones will not be left.

There are too many fierce beasts on the island.

These fierce beasts are probably deliberately done by Purgatory, even if some of the fierce beasts are highly poisonous, they can be solved with the elixir obtained on the island of the dead. Mu Shuangying once made it clear that this elixir can solve many highly toxic poisons in a targeted manner, and it can be seen that the most fundamental effect of those elixirs is here.

Nowadays, the consumption of the pill is not much, at least it is enough to use it for a long time to avoid many troubles.

Three hours passed in a flash, and Mu Shuangying seemed to wake up at the right time. A complete slumber brings enough rest, and the monk's physique is unrivaled. In just three hours, the fatigue on his face was swept away, and he was radiant again, at least on the surface, and he had enough rest.

"You go to sleep too, let's swap rests today and do nothing. ”

Mu Shuangying stretched his waist, not caring what kind of scenery would be revealed under his tattered clothes.

And Lu Chen didn't care about any of this, he withdrew his gaze at a glance, answered, and turned to lie down and rest where she was before.

For a whole day, nothing was done, only to recover from the fatigue left over from the previous month.

When everything is restored, the relationship between Lu Chen and Mu Shuangying will return to normal, at least now they will no longer be as vigilant against each other as before, and they will not be allowed to carry each other in the slightest.

Searching, through the jungle, over the hills, but there was still no other figure in sight. And what was obtained during the period was nothing more than the elixir and strange grass, and in addition, there were traces left by various people.

I hadn't seen anyone for a month, but now it's even harder to find them.

"Looking at the fire, it was at least half a month ago. ”

Mu Shuangying squatted down, carefully observing the traces of these other people's survival.

"Twelve days ago there had been a rain on this island, and though it was not heavy, the traces left here were a little scattered by the rain, and the ashes of the plants and trees were also lumpy, apparently once soaked in water. After too long, this trace is of little use, after all, the others also know that they can't stay in the same place for long, it will be very dangerous. ”

Rubbing the ashes on his fingers, Mu Shuangying couldn't help but sigh.

"It's been a month and a half, and I still haven't solved the question of the qualification for climbing, and I don't know if anyone has been qualified. ”

"Unlikely. ”

Lu Chen shook his head slightly.

"With your and my strength, you are considered the top here, and your cultivation is even stronger, even if someone is secretly observing, you should be discovered. But until now, we have not found a single person, and no one else may be able to find another person. It's only been a month and a half now, and even if someone wants to make a move, they won't be too extreme, and they will inevitably be cautious and not careless. ”

"So what do you mean... Wait until the six-month deadline is approaching, so that there is more possibility of meeting others?"

Mu Shuangying raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Chen with some amusement.

"Your head isn't very good, there's no basis for what you're saying, and honestly, I can't believe your reasoning. Let's take one step at a time, for now, let's look for the elixir and strange grass first, and then see when we can meet others. In short, try to solve the problem of mountaineering qualifications as much as possible, with you and me, except for the ten people in the waste room some trouble, if you meet others, you can do it directly. ”

Lu Chen didn't answer, only glanced at her.

The question of the right and wrong of the inference has become Mu Shuangying's habit of refuting Lu Chen, and every time he has a different opinion, he will always say almost the same thing. Despite this, Lu Chen had nothing to say, after all, his reasoning was indeed not very reliable, and about six or seven times out of ten times it was not true.

"Even if it's just one out of ten times, it's enough. ”

He muttered.

"So most of it is still a guess?"

Mu Shuangying raised his eyebrows and laughed.

Lu Chen blushed a little, but he couldn't see it, but his eyes could be easily seen.

Ran Mu Shuangying was about to speak, but the divine light in Lu Chen's eyes suddenly sank, and he rushed out violently against the cool breeze blowing from the north.

The smell of blood!

It's strong, and it smells fresh!

Mu Shuangying was a little slower, but soon realized what was going on. Her body swayed slightly, and she caught up with Lu Chen, who rushed out one step ahead of her, in an instant. The two of them walked through the grass, all the way over the hills, into the dense forest, and then slowed down, hid in the dense bushes, and approached cautiously without showing the slightest breath.

Wait for a moment before stopping.

That's where the smell of blood comes from.

But there was no one else around.

Only a saber-toothed tiger fell to the ground, most of its neck had been broken, and its head was almost cut off, and the gurgling blood flowed in large patches, and the smell of blood drifted with the wind, attracting many carnivorous beasts to approach. Soon, the sound of gnawing sounded, a little harsh, but there was nothing else.

Not even a trace was left.

Lu Chen and Mu Shuangying still did not move, suppressing their breath to the extreme, and their heartbeats almost completely stopped. Hour after hour, even if there were grass insects crawling all over the body, there was never the slightest recklessness. After two hours had passed, the bushes not far away suddenly moved, and out of them came a ruthless young man. He held a blood-stained dagger in his hand, and his eyes looked around warily.

"Strange thing, is my feeling wrong?"

He muttered as he approached the body of the saber-toothed tiger, waved the dagger in his hand, and took a seven-star step under his feet, instantly slashing several fierce beasts that were threatening with low roars, and then looked around again before turning and leaving, only to disappear in a moment.

"This man..."

Mu Shuangying relaxed a little, but only opened his mouth, but Lu Chen's body suddenly tightened, turned around sharply and hugged him, and the two rolled out together.

The bushes made a rustling sound, and sharp steel needles shot at them from a distance. And where it landed, it was where they were before.

"Finally someone took the bait. ”

Cold laughter came from all around, and there were not many of them.

And Mu Shuangying finally realized that something was wrong with him.

The boy who was supposed to have left also reappeared, squatting on an ancient tree not far away, with a triumphant smile on his face. He played with the sharp dagger in his hand, and looked at Lu Chen and Mu Shuangying with pity, as if he was looking at a lamb that had fallen into a trap.

And all around, more people slowly appeared.

"You can speak now. ”

Lu Chen behaved calmly, and there was no need to hide.

He pulled Mu Shuangying to stand up, and patted the blades of grass and insects on his body again, without any panic.

"I've seen this guy, it's a guy in the wasteroom. ”

Mu Shuangying smiled awkwardly and re-said the words that he had not finished before. And looking around, counting the young man squatting on the branch of the ancient tree, there were only nine people, not ten.

Among these people, Lu Chen was not too familiar with them, only a little impression, except for the man with a feminine face, everyone else was there.

"If there is one less, it should not be dead, it is secretly controlling the overall situation. ”

Lu Chen sighed.

"Well, that guy really doesn't look like a hands-on person. ”

Mu Shuangying nodded slightly in agreement.

"It's amazing how often you can guess such a thing with your head alive. ”

"You..."

The corners of Lu Chen's mouth twitched, a little annoyed.

However, it was not Lu Chen who was most annoyed, but the nine people who were gradually approaching. The sneer on their faces faded and replaced them with obvious angry expressions, obviously dissatisfied that Lu Chen and the others ignored their existence too much. After all, nine people against two, no matter the number or others, the advantage is already very obvious.

"Keep the woman, as for the man, hmph, kill it directly!"

The young man who was squatting on the branch of the ancient tree gave an order with a calm face, and then his feet shook slightly, and his figure dissipated.

When he reappeared, he had already arrived behind Lu Chen, and the dagger slashed the cold wind like a knife, and the killing machine was awe-inspiring!
