Chapter 21: The Trap
With a roar, the entrance to the ghost market was completely closed, and Lu Tian and the others stayed for a moment before leaving.
Along the way, Lu Tian found that Zhuang Niu had changed, not only nervous, but also looked around vigilantly from time to time, but Lu Tian did not break it, but continued to keep an eye on it. The two of them found a hidden place in the forest, stopped, checked the safety around them, and took off their masks.
Without the cover of the mask, Lu Tian could see Zhuang Niu's face more clearly, and from time to time an anxious look crossed his face, and frequently wiped the cold sweat on his head, which proved that Zhuang Niu had something to hide.
Zhuang Niu glanced around and found that nothing happened, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Brother Lu, are you going back to the sect?" ”
"Brother Zhuang, aren't you going back to the sect?" Lu Tian heard the meaning of Zhuang Niu's words, obviously wanting not to continue to walk with Lu Tian, a typical bridge drawing, but Lu Tian still asked with a puzzled face.
"This, Brother Lu, I still have something to do, let's separate first!" Zhuang Niu didn't beat around the bush, and said straight to the point, and at the same time there was a trace of anxiety on his face.
Looking at Zhuang Niu's expression that he tried his best to hide, Lu Tian laughed secretly in his heart, he Lu Tian was not a cheap master, so he had to let him leave something, so he replied casually: "Brother Zhuang will have a period later." ”
Seeing that Lu Tian was so happy, Zhuang Niu hurriedly hugged his fists and said goodbye, and then left, looking at it, he probably couldn't put on an extra pair of wings, and disappeared in front of Lu Tian's eyes in just a few seconds, and Lu Tian, who was standing in place, also disappeared with Zhuang Niu.
A few minutes later, Zhuang Niu's figure appeared on a dense woodland, and the tension that he had tried to hide also appeared on his face, after Zhuang Niu stood still, he took out a palm-sized yellow paper folded crane in his arms, and threw it into the sky, and then a magic trick was played, and the paper folded crane hovered in mid-air, and then flew to the far east.
Not long after the paper crane disappeared, a mysterious person wearing a black cloak and covering his face appeared coldly behind Zhuang Niu, who was originally nervous, felt the figure behind him, his face suddenly panicked, and he hurriedly bent down and said respectfully: "Messenger, the person I saw in the ghost market just now is the prey of this time, can you give me the pill?"
The mysterious man did not answer Zhuang Niu, and took off the cloak that covered his face, and a hideous appearance appeared in front of Zhuang Niu's eyes.
"Hmph, I'll spare you this time, let's quickly get our hands on the prey. The mysterious man snorted, and the hair on his face dissipated like a tide, revealing a bare head and two scars across his face.
Looking at the mysterious man who did not blame himself, Zhuang Niu's face eased slightly, and he did not mention the matter of asking for pills, after straightening his face, he took the mysterious man to find Lu Tian, in his heart, Lu Tian must not have run far, as long as Lu Tian was killed as a sacrifice, he could be promoted to a messenger, the mysterious man did not hesitate, and left behind Zhuang Niu.
The jungle returned to silence as the two of them left, but they didn't realize that the prey was staring at them in the dark.
In the dense forest, two figures swept quickly, their movements as agile as apes, and they disappeared in front of them in a few jumps.
"Hmph, Zhuang Niu can't find prey again, you can be a sacrifice!" The cold shouting and scolding echoed in the dense forest, and a cold sweat broke out on Zhuang Niu, who had taken the lead in moving quickly, and he knew very well the fate of the sacrifice, it was definitely more terrifying than death, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "My lord, please spare your life, spare some time, I will find it." After speaking, the speed suddenly increased by three points, and no matter how Zhuang Niu increased his speed, the mysterious person behind him followed closely.
Looking at the rapidly passing trees around him, Zhuang Niu's heart became more and more calm, he could wait, but the messenger behind him couldn't wait, their iron-blooded methods, thinking about it made Zhuang Niu's heart cold. But the heavens seemed to be attached to Zhuang Niu, and just when he was anxious, a figure was leisurely walking through the forest, and this person was Lu Tian himself.
The two figures that galloped towards him, Lu Tian had already noticed that if he wanted to escape, he would have already run away, but he was taken advantage of, and he was also designed that he was not a good person, although he did not know the identity of the mysterious person who walked with Zhuang Niu, but as long as his strength did not exceed the nine levels of Qi training, he still had the courage to fight.
"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, wait a minute!" The rapid shout echoed in the dense forest, Zhuang Niu was afraid that Lu Tian would be scared away, and quickly approached Lu Tian in three steps and two steps, watching Lu Tian stop his steps and look at himself from a distance, and his hanging heart was also relaxed.
"It turned out to be Brother Zhuang!" Lu Tian glanced around, put on a hypocritical smiling face, greeted Zhuang Niu with a happy face, and hugged Zhuang Niu with both hands unexpectedly, patting him on the back as he spoke.
Zhuang Niu, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was also shocked by Lu Tian's set, and was slapped on the back by Lu Tian seven or eight times in a row before struggling to let go of Lu Tian's embrace, but it was not good to tear his face, and he forced a smile and said, "Brother Lu, this is my senior brother, I came here this time to hunt some fierce beasts with Brother Lu and exchange a little spirit stone." ”
Of course, Lu Tian would not take these excuses seriously, maintained a hypocritical smile, looked the hideous man up and down, and then pounced, intending to repeat the old trick. The mysterious man was obviously not as hypocritical as Zhuang Niu, his footsteps were slightly staggered, and he passed by Lu Tian, and at the same time, his right fist brought a strong wind to attack Lu Tian's head.
With the sudden attack, Lu Tian had already kept an eye on it, and with a slight tap of his toes, the figure that had originally pounced quickly retreated, and the fist attacked by the mysterious man also missed.
"Hehe, aren't you playing?" Lu Tian touched the tip of his nose and said with a sneer, his eyes firmly locked on the two of them, not worried at all because of the disadvantage in numbers. Looking at the two people who were facing each other, Zhuang Niu also knew that it would be in vain to pretend, the smile on his face was replaced by coldness, and his eyes flashing at Lu Tian flashed with killing intent, and the usual Mu Na and Honesty had long since disappeared.
"You only cultivate the three levels of Qi cultivation, why fight with us, it's better to tie your hands and arrest it!" The mysterious man looked at Lu Tian in front of him, and an inexplicable dryness rose in his heart, and he was never able to stabilize his heart, and the blow just now was also a sudden idea.
Lu Tian didn't laugh angrily, pinched out a magic trick with both hands, looked at the two of them and sneered and said, "Fight! I know your purpose very well, but don't make up your mind too early." Listening to Lu Tian's provocative words, the uneasiness in the mysterious man's heart was even more numerous, but this moment was not the time to think about it, as a messenger, he had tried to be so despised by a little minion who practiced qi three times, his five fingers suddenly pinched, and one after another spells were played, only in a matter of one or two seconds, two earthy yellow cones with a length of two feet condensed out of thin air, and as soon as they appeared, they were mixed with fierce power and stabbed towards Lu Tian a few steps away.
In the face of the incoming attack, the smile on Lu Tian's face became more and more bright, the magic trick in his hand was instantly formed, and two fireballs the size of a washbasin roared to meet him, and with a roar, two attacks of different attributes exploded in mid-air.
The flames that dissipated in the air, and the soil that returned to the earth, made Zhuang Niu, who was still full of fierce intent, look at Lu Tian in front of him with a face full of disbelief, is this still the triple qi training in his cognition?
