Chapter 15: Strange Birds Chasing Souls (Part I)
It was late autumn, the river was cold, the pony climbed up from the river, only to feel the cold to the bone, and then look at the three of them are also dark blue, and their lips are white. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info on the cliff, where he just stood, two big monsters were lying on the edge of the cliff and roaring, their thick and powerful forelimbs pulling the cliff wall, and countless gravel remnants poured down like rain. There was a strange flute sound faintly in the mountain, the sound was not loud, but it was clearly audible in the earth-shattering roar of the monster. The sound of the flute seemed to have magical power, and the two monsters gradually quieted down, and finally turned around and disappeared into the mountain forest.
The pony was stunned for a long time, this monster appeared in Murong Villa, it was really not accidental, but deliberately driven by someone, this has nothing to do with the Blood Monster Hall, so who could it be? I thought about it for a long time, and I was at a loss for a while.
At this time, the sky is getting dark, the autumn wind is blowing, the pony feels hungry and cold, and he is fighting all day long, not dripping water, although he has long been accustomed to this kind of life, in his career, it is commonplace not to eat, drink or sleep for three or two days, but they are not the same, Murong Yuxin has never suffered such a catastrophe since he was a child, and he is afraid that he will not be able to bear it when he rushes back to the Fulin Hotel overnight, so he can only sleep for one night, and then rush to the road tomorrow morning.
At the moment, I talked about my thoughts with the three of them, and everyone thought it was so good. The monk shouted: "Monk, I have been fighting for a day, and I have to run for my life with the scholar on my back, and I have already put my chest on my back, so you can light a fire and wait for me to get some game and come back." After speaking, he ignored the wet and cold clothes on his body, and went into the forest.
Pony and the others found a slightly open and dry place at the edge of the forest, picked up some dead branches and fallen leaves, and lit a bonfire, which was warm and drove away the chill on their bodies. Not long after, the monk came back with a hare in his left hand and two pheasants in his right hand. There are many birds and animals in the mountains and forests, and the monk has been used to catching birds and beasts since he was a child, so this is just a piece of cake for him. Wash it by the river, string it with branches, hang it on the fire, and in a short time, the rich fragrance spreads.
When the clothes were about to dry, the game had just been roasted, everyone was hungry, and they were like wolves and wolves, Murong Yuxin ate very little, and the chicken leg handed over by the pony only took a few bites and then had no appetite, everyone knew that she suffered this disaster because of the villa, her heart was sad, and she lost her appetite for a while, and several men didn't know what to say to comfort, they were silent for a while, only the "crackling" sound of the dead branches burning and the sound of the wind rubbing the branches and leaves.
The night was getting darker, the moonlight was shining a dim glow through the branches and leaves, the forest was slowly filled with mist, and the days of running and tearing were finally a little tired, and the pony watched the three of them sleep soundly in the arms of the night, although they also felt tired, but their hearts were messy and there was no sleepiness at all. Thinking that the monk and the scholar of good fate met in Pingshui, but now they are also involved in this whirlpool, and they are in danger one after another, but they are at a loss and have no clue, maybe it will be a different situation when they return to the Fulin Hotel tomorrow.
There was some noise in the woods, and the pony followed the sound, but a large owl perched on a branch four or five feet away, fluttered its wings a few times, and cooed twice, especially in the silence of the night. The owl was a commonplace animal for people like him, but it was the first time that the pony had seen it as big as the one in front of him, and the coat was moist and smooth, so he couldn't help but look at it twice, and the big owl seemed to have noticed that the pony was looking at it, staring at the pony with those round eyes. The glowing eyes were eerie in the dim shadows of the trees, as unfathomable as a bottomless abyss.
Surprised, the pony was about to get closer to find out, but suddenly noticed that the four of them were already surrounded. Pony is shocked to see how incredible he could have allowed the enemy to approach in such a quiet night, without noticing. The alertness and instinctive response to danger that he had trained for so many years have all failed today. The horror in my heart is beyond words. Seeing that the four of them were surrounded by the bows and crossbows of the men in black, as long as the other party gave an order, they could instantly pierce people into hedgehogs.
Pony is annoyed that his vigilance is so poor, but it's crucial to find a way out of it before it's too late to explore the problem. Hurriedly waking up the three of them, the pony whispered: "The situation is critical, if there is anything to say after breaking through, wait for me to rush forward to capture the leader, monk, you immediately retreat, break through from behind into the forest." As soon as you enter the enemy's ranks, the enemy and the enemy mix together, and they dare not release arrows. Explained clearly, kicked out the firewood from the fire to the left and right like electricity, shouted "withdraw" in his mouth, and at the same time pounced on the black-clothed man led by him like a tiger out of the cage.
Suddenly heard Murong Yuxin exclaim behind him, the pony knew that something was wrong, and turned back eagerly, his heart was like falling into an ice cave, only to see the scholar lying on the ground, Murong Yuxin was held by the monk with his left hand, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground. The change was too sudden for anyone to guess. In the past two days, everyone was born and died together, and the monk was extremely brave and risked his life all the way, how could it be that he had another plan?
"Monk, you ......" Pony couldn't believe what he was seeing.
The monk smiled cruelly: "My appearance was originally part of the whole operation, in order to spy on the inside story and attack the unprepared. ”
How is this possible? In the past few days, he has long regarded the monk as a confidant, and all this is just an illusion, just a monk's bitter trick. The pony loses his usual composure and looks a little excited. However, he knew that he had to face the facts, and he had to think of ways to save Murong Yuxin. The current situation is quite unfavorable to him, the scholar fell to the ground motionless, Murong Yuxin was controlled by the monk again, he didn't even have a chance to fight back now, as long as he moved, Murong Yuxin could be harmed, he knew the monk's super combat power quite well, not to mention that there were dozens of black-clothed people waiting for an opportunity to move around.
Perhaps it was because the fierce battles over the past few days had consumed too much physical energy, and he felt that his brain didn't seem to be very bright, and he couldn't figure out his thoughts a little. You didn't come up with a plan, and the knife light behind him slashed with the strong wind, and the pony was shocked to dodge, and the knife slashed firmly on the shoulder, and jumped forward in sharp pain.
Suddenly woke up, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he let out a long breath, it turned out to be just a dream. Murong Yuxin asked with a concerned face beside him, "Did you have a nightmare?" I just saw you whispering in your dream, and it seemed to be very painful. ”
"Maybe the past two days have been too tired, and I just fell asleep and had a nightmare. Pony forced a smile and said, "I don't know how I had such a strange dream, I actually dreamed ......"
The pony doesn't say any more because he hears footsteps in the woods.
