Lao Hua carried the woman on his shoulders and ran all the way towards the narrow path where weeds were overgrown.

Feeling the faint vibration under his feet, Lao Hua's scalp was numb for a while.

At this time, the night was dark and the wind was high, and the evening wind kept hitting the face, and the scene in the eyes kept receding.

Lao Hua cursed in a low voice.

"I still underestimate these bastards, this kind of beast control means are available. ”

There seemed to be no end to the forest, and the woman was dizzy by the action of the boy below her, sometimes hurrying to the right, sometimes jumping up and stepping over a mud puddle.

And so it passed after half a stick of incense.

In the distance, the sound of water crashing against the stones came intermittently.

Lao Hua perked up and hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound.

There were two broken logs that were obliquely inserted into the ground in front of him, and Lao Hua did not hesitate, he directly stomped his feet and jumped on the highest end of the broken wood.

A small waterfall that is three zhang high and no more than two zhang wide meets Lao Hua's eyes.

Below the waterfall is a small pool of water, and at the end is a hazy curtain of water.

Lao Hua seemed to have made up his mind, jumped off the broken wood, and threw himself into the pool with one arrow step.

"Wow" Half of Lao Hua's body was flooded in a blink of an eye, and a violent chill suddenly hit, making him feel excited.

The lower body of the woman on her shoulder also fell into the water, and the woman couldn't help screaming, and her whole body continued to tremble.

"Shut up!" Lao Hua hurriedly stretched out his right hand to cover the woman's small mouth.

Lao Hua looked back at the back, there was only a dark shadow of a tree, and the sound he felt before seemed to disappear out of thin air.

There is only the sound of the waterfall flowing into the pool, and in addition, there are water beads clapping on the face, making Lao Hua squint his eyes from time to time.

Lao Hua continued to wade forward, stepping on the pebbles at the bottom of the water.

But in a moment, Lao Hua came to the curtain of water that stirred up a mist.

A small stone cave looms behind the curtain of water.

"Sure enough!" Lao Hua was overjoyed, and without hesitating for half a minute, he slammed into the water curtain.

......

At this time, if you look down from the top of the forest, there are dozens of trees not far away, and the leaves are constantly rustling.

The cause of this movement was hundreds of iron horsemen, and the figures on the horses kept waving their weapons and slashing at the surrounding trees.

Like a net, these people have only one goal, to find the county lord's concubine and kill the kidnapper at all costs.

There has never been a person who robbed people under the nose of the county lord.

It is conceivable that this county lord must be extremely angry at this time, and dare to have someone so provoking his dignity.

In addition to these iron horses, there were several masked men walking in the forest on foot.

The figure at the front was covered in flesh, and every step of the two-meter-tall huge body could stir up a cloud of dust on the ground.

Behind him were three figures, one on the left dressed in a strange black feather coat, and a fat crow standing on his shoulder, motionless as if it were a dead thing.

In the middle is a petite woman in red, with several braids made of broken fingers on her head, which looks extremely terrifying.

On the right is a hunchbacked old woman, jumping forward with a dark green cane, and her lower body is empty, without lower limbs.

If these four people were to see them, they would probably be so frightened that they would lose half their lives.

The first person, the figure with a fleshy face at this time, had a vicious face, holding two huge iron hammers in both hands, and was constantly waving, and the trees in front of him were easily shattered by him.

Trees fell to the sides, and the four of them walked on the ground, without any need to detour.

"Now that the concubine has been robbed, the city is all over the city, and the county lord has issued a death order, and we can't go back until we find the concubine," the tall figure said in a low voice.

The woman in red who followed behind him grinned and said, "Our three guests are not afraid, if you don't complete the task, you can only be given death!"

The woman's voice was so numb that the figure in front of her frowned.

"Carrot, shut up for me, if you don't find someone, you won't have a place in this Qingfeng County. ”

The woman in red grinned when she heard this, but she no longer responded to the ridicule of the man in front of her.

"Wait!" I saw that the man in the black feather coat suddenly stopped.

The other three also stopped, turning to look at the man in the feather coat.

The man's mouth made a strange voice of "hiss, hiss", and he fell to his knees, his whole head buried in the soil.

After a few breaths, the man stood up again, regardless of the mud on his face, and said with a sneer: "I found someone, six miles to the southeast, hiding in the hole of a waterfall." ”

The man burst into a whimsical laugh.

"The eight grass pythons I summoned have already rushed over with the county lord's men and horses, hoping that the man will not die so soon. ”

When the three of them heard this, they all laughed gloomily and hurried towards the waterfall.

......

Lao Hua's upper body was naked at this time, squatting in a place in the hole and twisting the clothes he had taken off.

The clothes were constantly squeezed out of the water and spilled onto the broken bandages on the ground.

Lao Hua's entire left arm was completely exposed, and the scales on it shimmered with a cold light.

Fortunately, it was pitch black all around, otherwise with the fragile nerves of the woman surnamed Xu, she would faint in fear when she saw this strange hand.

The woman leaned against a slightly flat stone wall in the entrance of the cave, her whole body cowering together, and her mouth kept exhaling cold air.

Her clothes were completely soaked, but she didn't take them off, for fear that the boy would see her body.

Lao Hua had no intention of pitying Xiang Xiang and cherishing the jade, and now his mind was full of chaos.

"At least a hundred people, how can this be?"

Lao Hua couldn't help but say to himself, he had never been hunted down like this.

Thinking of Zhangjia Village in the distance, Lao Hua was impatient.

"Can I delay this movement for a while?"

But before he could continue to think about it, Lao Hua saw the waterfall outside the entrance of the cave, and the torches lit up in the left direction.

More than a dozen figures approached the place, and the light of the fire illuminated their bodies clearly.

"Oh no!" Lao Hua stood up abruptly and walked to the entrance of the cave.

I saw a curtain of water outside the entrance of the cave poking in an arm covered with iron armor, and the long knife in his hand was full of water droplets.

Lao Hua's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he pulled out the short knife on his waist regardless of it, and walked out of the cave with half of his body.

The figure covered in iron armor finally walked into the water curtain, just about to see the movement of the cave entrance.

But before he could see it, a blade that emitted cold light slashed from the bevel, slicing off his arm in an instant.

"Ahh

There was a heavy plopping sound outside the water curtain, and the other figures stopped their steps, as if they were beginning to fear the strength of the person inside.

After cutting off the man's arm, Lao Hua quickly walked into the entrance of the cave and crouched quietly on the side of the entrance.

Touching the edge of the short knife in his hand, Lao Hua was miserable.

But the woman at the innermost point of the cave stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave.

"What are you doing!" Lao Hua hurriedly pulled the corner of the woman's clothes.

The woman shook her head slightly, and said to him in a hoarse voice, "Their target is me." ”

The woman gently grasped the young man's arm that was tugging at the corner of her clothes with her small hand.

"They won't harm me, Zhangjiacun... I will intercede for you. ”

The woman's weak voice was heard in Lao Hua's ears, like a clear spring flowing, soothing Lao Hua's flustered heart at this time.

The weak body could not be seen in the dark night, and the woman gently tore open the palm of the young man's hand that was clenched at the corner of his clothes, and slowly stood at the entrance of the cave.

"Brothers outside, listen to my Xu Xiaoqian..."

The conversation came to an abrupt end.

In Lao Hua's eyes, the woman surnamed Xu trembled a few times, but after a few breaths, she slowly fell backwards.

Lao Hua hurriedly hugged her from behind, and his left hand touched the arrow that was straight into her stomach.

The blood slowly flowed down Lao Hua's palm and dripped to the ground.

Lao Hua was silent.

Gently removed the woman from her bosom and laid her flat on the cold stone cave floor.

At the entrance of the cave, Lao Hua's thin body reappeared.

But at this time, he threw away the short knife that could no longer be used.

With his palms condensed into fists, countless green tendons were revealed on his arms, and Lao Hua picked up the martial arts that he hadn't been able to use for a long time.

"Fire Fist. Lao Hua instantly stepped on the gravel outside the stone cave, and kicked violently against the stone wall.

Like a fierce tiger burning with flames all over his body, Lao Hua suddenly rushed out of the water curtain blocking in front of him, and pounced fiercely at more than a dozen figures in his eyes above the pool of water!

Without any words, the dozen or so people also drew out the long swords at their waists in an instant and slashed towards the oncoming young man.

It was the moment the two sides touched.

The young man's left fist slammed straight into the man's face, and with a whip kick of his right foot, he knocked off the long sword that was about to be inserted into his leg.

The boy finally fell into the pool of water, and without any pause, he bowed to his body, dodging two oncoming sword shadows.

The torches were dropped on the water, and at the last moment they were extinguished, the boy saw that the dozen or so heavily armored figures were rapidly gathering towards him.

The boy closed his eyes and felt the cold long sword about to stab at him.

A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, but the boy suddenly stopped moving, and waited quietly.

"I'm sorry," the young man looked lonely, he had countless things on his mind, there were countless answers he needed to find, and he went, but it seemed... There is no more chance.

Suddenly, a mutation suddenly occurred.

The young man's exposed chest lit up with a blinding white light, and at the same time, a terrible baby cry violently stirred.

The countless sword shadows stabbed in front of them were all trembling, but they fell into the water one after another.

The dozen or so figures shrouded in darkness, all covering their ears with their hands, the baby's cry seemed to penetrate their souls, causing them to bend down in pain.

The boy seemed unaffected by all this, and watched all this in amazement.

The baby's cry lasted for three breaths before slowly dissipating.

The white light on his chest slowly dimmed.

The young man's left arm was swirling with several wisps of black smoke at this moment, and a strange feeling came from his left hand.

In the dark, there seemed to be a voice in the young man's mind.

"Blood... More blood. ”

As if bewitched, the young man's entire body was occupied by this voice, and his eyes instantly turned red.

The dozen or so figures slowly lowered the hands covering their ears at this time, and looked ahead in horror.

But the darkness of the night, with the extinguishing of the torches, completely obscured their eyes.

Someone finally couldn't stand the strange scene today, turned around and was about to wade through the pool and flee towards the shore.

The rest of the people also turned around and fled, and the words of the county lord were completely ignored by them.

This scene is destined to become a nightmare that they will never forget, and they will never get rid of it.

Provided they have a chance to have nightmares.

The boy moved in the pool, making countless splashes, and threw himself at the nearest figure.

The man's back was instantly pierced by a claw that emitted a cold light.

The boy didn't stop, and chased after the fleeing figure in front of him again.

Screams rang out one after another.

The icy water of the pool is gradually stained red with blood...

A moment later, the boy knelt on the muddy ground outside the pool with his arms crossed, gasping for breath.

The left arm was now scarlet, and the blood that fell on it did not slide into the ground, but seeped into the left arm.

The blood of the boy's eyes had faded.

The scene just now kept coming into his mind, and the boy became afraid.

He was afraid that he would become a complete monster.

Turning around, the boy looked at the corpses that were densely floating in the pool.

"It's... Did I really cause it?"

But when he looked at the waterfall, he stood up sharply, and his consciousness was instantly clear.

Wouldn't the woman just die?

Feeling anxious, the boy jumped into the pool again, wading desperately across the water.

After a while, the boy entered the cave, sat down, and embraced the woman into his arms.

The woman was already angry, but her closed eyes opened with the warmth coming from behind her.

The young man was silent, and pressed his palm to the woman's stomach, as if to stop the woman's blood.

But he didn't know that the blood could no longer flow.

The woman's throat squirmed desperately.

The boy knew that she was going to speak, and gently straightened her body in his arms, so that she could speak with strength.

"My name is not Xu Xiaoqian, my name is Xu Ru. ”
