Chapter 22: Hidden in the Devil's Cave
"Jiuxuan, leave it to me. ”
Xiang Jiuxuan looked at Gu Xuyao beside him in surprise, there was no smile on the other party's face, because the two of them were cornered, those presumptuous monsters actually stopped attacking temporarily, and instead surrounded it in the center, as if they wanted to play with them.
Although Gu Xuyao is already Xiang Jiuxuan's only friend now, to be honest, he has never known much about this monk who has been highly praised by his uncle, and he has to say that Xiang Jiuxuan believed it when Gu Xuyao said this kind of thing, after all, the unknown means unpredictability.
"Brother, Mengmeng is with you!"
After hearing Gu Xuyao's words, the little guy also patted his little chest, looking like he was not afraid of anything.
smiled with relief, in fact, Gu Xuyao didn't want Mengmeng to follow him all along, after all, he always experienced this kind of danger, and he didn't know how long he could hold on, but helplessly, Mengmeng had no relatives and no reason, except for his "brother", he didn't know who else to entrust her.
"Humble humans, why do you set foot in our territory? ”
While they were thinking about it, the monsters also moved, only to see them get out of the way, and a special monster came out of the middle, and the most strange thing was that it actually questioned them with its mouth.
This couldn't help but make the two of them look at each other in surprise, this reaction obviously made the monster slightly unhappy, only to see it touch the horn of its head, and continued: "Hmph, a lowly race is a lowly race, how can we not know your low-level words? Even the old ancient characters can be learned. ”
In the face of this naked contempt, the two quickly came back to their senses, Gu Xuyao was the first to stand up and stop in front of Xiang Jiuxuan, since the other party is so arrogant, then let the Heavenly Evil Bead let them know what the real power is.
"Don't talk nonsense, you monsters and thieves don't die, what kind of invasion plan is planning here that we are discovering and spewing blood? No matter what, since you are blocked here today, you will fight if you want to, no need to say more!"
It can be seen clearly. The monsters that chased down from the clouds all had red horns on their heads. However, the head monster had two horns, and given that they had a pair of insect bodies, Gu Xuyao boldly guessed from the perspective of a hunter that perhaps after killing the head monster, the rest of the insects would scatter and flee.
"Hmph, what a arrogant human. How dare you speak like that when you invade our territory? I just wanted to ask you to get out of here. Since you don't listen, then don't blame us for being ruthless!"
Gu Xuyao's face was slightly moved when he heard this, and the Yuan Li that was originally ready to attack was also slightly loosened: "What did you say? You don't mean to kill us, you just want us to leave?"
"That's right. Do you think that our demons will be as barbaric and rude as you humans? Although your ancestors did have a large-scale war with our ancestors, now our demons are indifferent to fame and fortune, and all we want is to be safe, and we don't want to be disturbed. ”
Gu Xuyao and Xiang Jiuxuan glanced at each other, neither of them had dealt with the demons, and what they had heard was always how the demons were so cruel, but why was it a different situation when they met now?
"Well, in that case, you can send us away, I swear I will never say anything about what you are entrenched here. ”
The monster at the head smiled, looking very happy, and muttered a few words to the monster behind him that they didn't understand.
"If you follow them, you will naturally reach the exit from this place, don't say I didn't warn you, don't make any changes on the way, otherwise you will ......"
It didn't continue to say the following words, just smiled coldly, and after these words, the demon clan led by the leader got out of the way, and let the two leave, seeing that this posture didn't seem to be playing any trick at all.
At this time, the two of them actually have a lot of choices, but no matter how bad their situation is, it will not be worse than being surrounded now, if they don't leave, there will be no life at all, it is better to listen to each other once, even if it is wrong, there may be some unexpected gains.
Thinking of this, Gu Xuyao didn't shirk it, took Meng Meng in his arms, and began to slowly move with the monster in front of him with Xiang Jiuxuan, but at this time, there was a sudden movement below, and the figure at the source of the sound had already come to the two of them at the same time as the abnormal movement came out, and the speed was simply not what they could imagine!
"Damn, it's that person, kill them for me!"
The leader of the demon clan recognized who the black shadow was at a glance, and immediately gave the order to slaughter, only to see that there were hundreds of monsters nearby and waved the long soldiers in their hands to attack Gu Xuyao and Xiang Jiuxuan, and the sudden change immediately made Gu Xuyao enter a combat state, only to see him holding Meng Meng in one hand, and holding the moon in the other hand to slash at the two monsters that led the way.
Like Gu Xuyao, Xiang Jiuxuan's reaction was also extremely fast, and he also activated the puppet to counterattack at the first time, but what was strange was that when they attacked the closest enemy to them, they found that the monsters in that place had been torn apart, not only that, but there seemed to be a cyan wind in the sky, and dozens of monsters were in different places in an instant.
"Catch him!
The leader monster was very angry, but it didn't dare to step forward, and the only thing it could do was to let out a high-pitched hiss and call the other monsters in the clouds to join them in the fight.
But the black shadow obviously won't entangle with the monsters, he knows that the monsters here can't be killed by him alone, so after he killed dozens of monsters, the figure flashed back and grabbed Gu Xuyao and Xiang Jiuxuan, and when the next breath came, there was no trace of three people in the air.
Gu Xuyao's impression was that he seemed to be in the thunder and fog wind, that extremely fast speed was the first time he experienced it, the feeling of the wind whistling around him was not at all the effect that he could bring when he was flying, and when he felt it clearly, those monsters that stopped in the air and shouted indiscriminately were already far away from him, of course, such a huge number could still see some shadows, but its angry shouts were probably only left for it to enjoy.
"Thank you seniors for saving me. ”
Gu Xuyao immediately remembered that he was rescued by someone, and immediately bowed down to thank him, and then reacted to Jiuxuan and followed him with a fist.
"No, you two little babies, what's the matter? This body cultivation should be cultivated well, and it won't be to come to the Demon Sand Sea rashly to seek some magic weapon, right? ”
The monk who rescued the two people in front of him looked like he was about forty years old, his facial features were ordinary, there was nothing special, half of his beard was gray, his long hair was tied up in a bun, and under the coarse linen clothes was extremely high cultivation, Gu Xuyao roughly estimated that he should have exceeded the third-order cultivation.
"No, we're just here looking for a small mountain village, but we don't want the terrible hurricane outside to sweep over, and we just have to go into it to find a way out. ”
At this time, the three of them hid under a stone pile, and the monsters could not find them due to the distance, but this did not mean that they were absolutely safe.
"Little mountain village?" the man frowned, and then he seemed to have found the ring on Xiang Jiuxuan's finger, stared at it for a long time, and finally glanced at Gu Xuyao, and said, "You come with me." ”
didn't say anything explicitly, he took care of himself and led the way in front, and the two of them had nowhere to go now, so they could only follow him for the time being.
No one spoke along the way, and Meng Meng also sat on Gu Xuyao's shoulder, fortunately, the road was not too far, and after walking for about three hours, the man came to a pile of ordinary stones in front of him and knocked lightly a few times, and the stone pile actually moved away on its own to make way for a hole in the ground.
The cave is not too deep, and the bottom is a small secret room, which is not airtight, and it feels more like a coffin.
"Master, you're back. ”
Although the secret room is not large, it is enough to accommodate a hundred people, and at this time there are more than ten monks in it who are meditating, and when they see the middle-aged monk returning, they immediately come over eagerly to ask.
"Well, don't talk yet, I have something to ask this lad. ”
Letting his apprentices get out of the way, he turned to look at Xiang Jiuxuan.
"Young man, how did the ring on your finger come about. ”
Xiang Jiuxuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at the mysterious ring on his finger, which was made of Hei Sang, and it was his uncle's last intention.
"It was given to me by my uncle. ”
"What's your name, uncle?"
"The younger generation's surname is Xiang, and his name is Jiuxuan. ”
In an instant, the expression on the monk's face froze in a state of shock, and he turned his head to look at his disciples with some guilt, and sighed.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
They were a little anxious to see their master react like this, but the man just waved his hand and asked them not to worry.
"Xiang Jiuxuan, Xiang Jiuxuan, good name, young man, can I take the liberty of asking, what is your uncle's name and where is he from?"
"Since it is my uncle, it is naturally surnamed Xiang, my uncle Xiang Hedong is the same as me, we are the real descendants of the Xiang family. ”
This answer gave the other party the last affirmation, and he excitedly slapped his hands on Xiang Jiuxuan's shoulders, looking at him with a look of relief in his eyes, as if he had found no one else, but his own flesh and blood that had been lost for many years.
"Okay, good, worthy of Hedong's nephew, very good, this momentum is a necessary thing before the event, now that you have it, it seems that you have not wasted your uncle's hard work!"
"Senior, do you know my uncle? Wait, you are ......"
Xiang Jiuxuan was a little inexplicable, but he quickly reacted, and it turned out that the life-saving benefactor standing in front of him turned out to be the worldly master his uncle said! (To be continued......)
