Chapter 52: The Line Between Life and Death

Nanshan, on the periphery of the dense forest.

Li Hu looked at the fire at the scene and was silent.

It seems that this gang of maniacs has just left.

In front of it is the depths of the dense forest, which is full of thorns, fierce beasts, and complex terrain, and the most daring and experienced hunters and wood-gatherers dare not enter it.

In the depths of Nanshan, it is more dangerous than the sea of fire in Zhidao Mountain, and over the years, there are not a few people who have been lost in it.

Li Qing sighed: "Brother Hu, it seems that these people are sincerely looking for death, what should we do now......?

Li Hu's face was cloudy, looking into the depths of the dense forest, and he fell into deep thought.

Li Qing, Li Zhongyue, and a large number of good players in the Li Mansion all looked at Li Hu, waiting for him to make a decision.

Jiang Minglun, who followed over, was very anxious and said, "Master Li, are we going to follow up, if we are one step late, maybe the fourth son will be in danger, and he still has internal injuries?"

Li Hu then spoke: "Brother Jiang, don't be impulsive, the depths of Nanshan are no better than other places, there are towering trees inside, and they don't see the light of day all year round, and the old hunters around them all say that the terrain inside is very complicated, and it is very easy to get lost, and then the mouth of the beast is killed, so we rush in and send it to death." ”

Jiang Minglun wanted to speak and stopped, and finally sighed.

He had heard of the dangers in the depths of Nanshan.

Is it less than this time?

I hope that he has his own natural appearance.

Li Hu had no other way, and said, "Let's go down the mountain first, send people to guard a few important exits, go back and report to the eldest brother, and then make a decision." ”

......

It was a long time later when Li Wuchang woke up again.

The weather is extremely cold, and there is a cold feeling on my back, my clothes are torn, but fortunately, I have the true qi of "Cangyan Jue" to support it, otherwise I will not be frozen to death and will be frozen stupid.

When I opened my eyes slightly, I found that there were towering trees all around, the sky was gray, and the smell of rotting leaves came from all around.

The injured chest is not so painful, Li Wuchang tried to run the True Qi, and found that his internal injuries were all good, it seems that the domineering True Qi is also beneficial, and it can quickly treat the internal injuries.

There was another voice in my ears.

"Mr. Ye, at such a depth, the people of the Li Mansion should not dare to chase after him. Zhu Changxing's voice seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Third son, although this is the case, but now we still can't take it lightly, we are in too much of a hurry, and now it seems to be ...... Lost. Mr. Ye's voice.

"Yes, Sangongzi, I just explored the road, and found that the surroundings are almost the same, and now I can't even judge the direction, and the trees here are too tall to block the light, so I can't see the road clearly. One of his men told the story.

"Also, we're almost out of dry food, and we'll have to run out of food in a few days. Another subordinate talked about eating.

"It's too cumbersome to take this Li Gongzi, after asking to understand, simply kill him, Hengzhu has already offended the Li Mansion. "Someone is saying harsh words.

Li Wuchang was shocked, and quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, while thinking about a plan to escape.

Zhu Changxing's voice sounded again, "Mr. Ye, you said before that Li Wuchang was lying, what the hell is going on?"

Mr. Ye snorted coldly and said, "Shen Yuan will never casually reveal the mantra of the Ghost Shadow Sect, this is the rule of their sect. Nie Jin's old boy was a martial idiot, when he took Shen Yuan in, in addition to wanting him to sell his life, he also wanted to get the ghost shadow door body method, but Shen Yuan would rather die than reveal half a sentence, so Nie Jin gave up. ”

I see.

Zhu Changxing said fiercely: "Damn, I almost fooled this kid, according to this, this kid must have some deal with Shen Yuan, maybe that ancient book is in this kid's hands." ”

Li Wuchang finally understood the other party's purpose, it turned out to be for the nameless ancient book.

What is the secret of that ancient book, isn't it a geographical chronicle?

Alas, I had no patience after only reading a few pages at that time, what a failure.

Mr. Ye said: "Now we must get out of this dense forest early, otherwise we will not starve to death but also die in the mouth of a fierce beast or some kind of poison, everyone has seen it just now." ”

Just now, everyone was attacked by poisonous insects, one brother has been poisoned to death, and it is strange that there are insects in the winter, which confirms the danger of the jungle.

Zhu Changxing's eyes were cold, he rushed to Li Wuchang's side and kicked Li Wuchang hard.

Li Wuchang was in pain and could no longer pretend to sleep.

"Brother Zhu, what are you doing here?" Li Wuchang pretended to be kicked awake, looking ignorant.

Zhu Changxing stared at Li Wuchang expressionlessly, and said lightly: "I have always been like this to deal with dishonest people, let me ask you again, what deal do you have with Shen Yuan, why did he teach you the ghost figure method?"

After a pause, he continued: "You'd better tell the truth this time, otherwise I'll invite you to eat knives, I guess you've also heard of our Hanshui Gang's habit of doing things." ”

After Zhu Changxing finished speaking, he pulled out a dagger from his waist and shook it in front of Li Wuchang.

Li Wuchang raised his hand in surrender and said, "Don't be impulsive, I said it." ”

Zhu Changxing looked at it coldly.

Li Wuchang sighed secretly, it seems that he has to tell the truth, the young gang leader of the Hanshui Gang in front of him is obviously very angry, it is not appropriate to provoke him now, and that Mr. Ye is also an unfathomable master.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

Thinking so, Li Wuchang said: "When I got up that morning, I found a man in black next to the dog hole in the yard, who was Shen Yuan in your mouth, who was seriously injured, and I saved him. After he found out that I was a disciple of the Li Mansion, he hurriedly climbed over the wall and left, and I found that he had left two books behind. ”

Zhu Changxing and Mr. Ye were overjoyed, and they both asked, "What book?"

Li Wuchang said: "One of them is the secret book of the ghost shadow body method, and the other one is too old, I read a few pages casually, it seems to be an ancient book like a geographical chronicle, so I am not interested in reading it." ”

Now it's really a brainstorm.

Mr. Ye's face was flushed, his breath was short, and he nodded to Zhu Changxing.

Zhu Changxing also showed an excited look and continued to ask, "Where is that ancient book now?"

Li Wuchang smiled and said, "Brother Zhu is really amazing, first ask the location of the ancient books, and then kill people, right?"

Looking at their excited looks, Li Wuchang felt that the ancient book should be very important to Zhu Changxing and his group, so he did not hesitate to offend the Li Mansion.

Of course, I can't say it now, this is Li Wuchang's life talisman.

Zhu Changxing laughed and said, "It seems that Brother Li has made up his mind and refuses to say it, aren't you afraid that I will kill you now?"

Of course, Li Wuchang will not be bluffed by him.

He wished Changxing to waste such a big mind, how many times he died, and he also offended the huge power of the Li Mansion, just to get that ancient book, how could he give up so easily.

If you kill Li Wuchang, you will only fall short.

Li Wuchang said lightly: "Brother Zhu, can you listen to me?"

Zhu Changxing looked at Li Wuchang coldly and did not say anything against it.

Li Wuchang continued: "Now the situation of both of us is very dangerous, and there will be danger of life at any time, I say so, I wish my brother no objection." ”

Everyone is in the depths of the dense forest, and now they are in a state of getting lost, and the jungle is extremely dangerous, and they can die at any time.

For Li Wuchang, in addition to the danger from the jungle, he was also a prisoner, and his life was in the hands of Zhu Changxing and others.

And Zhu Changxing's side also needs to deal with the pressure from the Li Mansion, in case Li Hu sends someone to kill him, if the two sides meet, Zhu Changxing's side will only be wiped out.

Zhu Changxing said coldly: "What do you want to say?"

Li Wuchang shrugged his shoulders and said: "I'm really greedy for life and afraid of death, I just want to save my life, and Brother Zhu, in addition to wanting to save your life, you also want to get that ancient book, everyone understands people, you don't have to deny it." ”

Although Zhu Changxing didn't want to admit it, this was the case, so he could only acquiesce and wait for the following.

Li Wuchang said: "Where are the ancient books, I won't say it now, because if I say it now, I may die, I don't want to bet, and I don't dare to bet." ”

Zhu Changxing and Mr. Ye stared at Li Wuchang with cold eyes, eager to execute him now.

Li Wuchang's face was fearless, and he said: "The current situation is that if you kill me, you won't get the ancient books, and even if you can escape from this dense forest, you will be chased and killed by the Li Mansion, and you will also give the Li Mansion an excuse to make a move against the Hanshui Gang. ”

After a pause, he continued: "If you don't kill me, I can also become your life talisman, when you get out of the dense forest, the forces of the Li Mansion will definitely throw a mouse taboo, and then your chances of escaping will be one more point, as for the ancient books, when we escape, I will tell you where it is, whether you can get it or not, it's up to you, I don't interfere." ”

I have to say that Li Wuchang's remarks are reasonable, which fully explains the reason for not revealing the secrets of ancient books now, and also analyzes the disadvantages of Zhu Changxing and others killing Li Wuchang now and the benefits of not killing Li Wuchang.

Mr. Ye interjected: "When the time comes, what if you don't say it?"

Li Wuchang smiled faintly and said: "Mr. Ye, I am now seriously injured internally, and my life is in your hands, if you can't escape from the dense forest, everything will be closed, but if you escape, you can take me and threaten the people of the Li Mansion, or directly tie me back to Xiangyang, and when you get to your territory, you can slowly interrogate it." ”

Mr. Ye said again: "You are just a concubine, can you threaten Li Lingwu, will he care about you?"

Li Wuchang replied: "I was in a coma before, I don't know why you escaped into Nanshan, have you tried to threaten the people of the Li Mansion with me?"

Seeing that Zhu Changxing and Mr. Ye were at a loss, Li Wuchang said again: "It seems that I haven't tried it, alas, my father may not care about my life, but Li Hu must not dare to joke with my life...... You really shouldn't have entered this ghost place, you should have threatened Li Hu with my life in the first place, in that case, maybe you have already obtained that ancient book by now, and you are already on your way back to Xiangyang City. ”

After Li Wuchang finished speaking, he looked speechless, as if he was laughing at Zhu Changxing and Mr. Ye for making a stupid decision.

Zhu Changxing was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and felt that he should have been in a hurry at that time.

In his heart, Li Wuchang was a dispensable concubine of the Li Mansion, and he never thought that he could take Li Wuchang's life to negotiate terms with the Li Mansion.

Hurriedly bought the city gate to guard the city.

Flee in a hurry.

Hurriedly escaped into Nanshan, and even entered the depths of Nanshan.

Zhu Changxing decided to kidnap Li Wuchang, originally relying on his enthusiasm, he was a little scared after he hurried out of the city, and fled all the way, never daring to think about negotiating conditions with Li Hu, he could only blame Li Wuchang's status for being too low.

Now that I think about it, what Li Wuchang just said is not unreasonable, Li Wuchang is Li Lingwu's son after all, even if Li Lingwu himself doesn't care about this concubine, but Li Hu may not be so bold and doesn't care about Li Wuchang's life at all.

Alas, a mistake.

What else can be done now?

I can only get out of this dense forest first and save my life.

As for the ancient books, let's talk about it slowly, anyway, Li Wuchang's martial arts are not high, and he has already suffered internal injuries, so he will never be able to run.

"Mr. Ye, I think it's better to get out of this ghost place first. Zhu Changxing was finally convinced, and no longer thought about asking about the whereabouts of the ancient books first, and then killing Li Wuchang.

Mr. Ye nodded in agreement.

Li Wuchang was secretly relieved that he finally saved his life.
