Chapter 39: True Villain, False Gentleman

"Corpse fire!"

Lei Mu's eyes lit up, "There really is a corpse down here!"

Liu Ao frowned, always feeling that something was wrong, Tong Ying also seemed to sense, standing beside Liu Ao without moving.

Lei Mu didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and kept swinging the axe in his hand and smashing it on the ground.

Soon, a big hole was smashed out, and Lei Mu lay on the ground and looked down, but he was shivering from the cold air that came out.

"It's deep down there, and I can't see it clearly. โ€

"Who's going first?"

Several people looked at each other, and no one wanted to go down first.

"Then draw lots according to the rules!" Lei Mu carried the axe on his shoulder, bent down to pick up a few stones and held them in the palm of his hand, "I will carve the order on the stone, and whoever draws one will go first." โ€

After speaking, he put the stone on the ground, Qi Guanyan also put away the lighting bead, and in an instant, the entire space fell into darkness.

Several people stretched out their hands and took a stone from each of them.

When Qi Guanyan took out the lighting bead again, Liu Ao saw the stone in his hand, which was engraved with a shallow two.

And Tong Ying's eyes widened, her face was full of loss, and she obviously drew one.

Qi Guanyan took out the thin rope wrapped around his waist and tied it to the edge of the hole, "Miss Tongying, this ice silk is very strong, you can rest assured, we will follow you." โ€

Tong Ying hesitated, and was glared at by Lei Mu's eyes, so he had to pull the ice silk, and slowly slid down with some fear.

Liu Ao followed closely behind, followed by Lei Mu, and finally Qi Guanyan and Yun Qiu.

Bearing the weight of five people, the ice silk made a 'click' sound, but it did not break.

After descending for dozens of feet, Tong Ying suddenly spoke, "There is a pillar below, I will stand firm first and then go down." โ€

Liu Ao also saw that there was a platform that could be settled a foot away under his feet, and the platform extended downward, like a curved pillar.

When all five of them stood on the platform, they were already crammed back to back, and they would fall down if they were not careful.

Below, clusters of green flames appeared extremely cold, and a strange aura permeated the entire underground space.

Qi Guanyan withdrew the ice silk, tied it to the platform, and motioned for Tong Ying to continue down.

Tong Ying clenched her teeth and looked at Liu Ao as if asking for help, but saw Liu Ao's eyes exposed outside extremely calm, "Go down." โ€

Tong Ying had no choice but to continue.

When Tong Ying was down-to-earth, the whole person was already pale, and he was so cold by the cold here that he spoke for half a beat, "I'm a little scared." โ€

"I'm afraid of, didn't you ask us to explore?" Remu looked left and right with his axe, but frowned, "There's nothing here." โ€

"Yes," Liu Ao suddenly turned around and walked dozens of meters ahead, looking at the pillars on both sides that curved upward, and already had a faint guess in his heart.

At this time, Yun Qiu, who had not spoken, finally spoke.

"I guess it's a huge skeleton!"

The first thing she said made several people nervous.

"The top two pillars just now should be two horns, and now these pillars should be ribs. โ€

Liu Ao nodded, his tone dull, "This is indeed the skeleton of a demon beast, it should be... A cow!"

"Such a big cow?" Tong Ying exclaimed, "Could it be that this is the skeleton of the Taurus Half-Demon?"

"It should be," Qi Guanyan smiled.

"Then look for it, it is said that the Taurus half-demon was hunted down by the Demon Hunter Guild back then, in addition to the identity of the half-demon, but also because of the demon pill in his body, that is a really good thing. โ€

Qi Guanyan was also inevitably excited, "If he was really in the realm of Wuhou during his lifetime, even if the medicinal properties of that demon pill were lost, the value would definitely be above 10,000 spirit stones!"

Only Tong Ying's face was full of doubts, "Does the demon pill have medicinal properties?"

Liu Ao knew more about the demon clan than they did, and nodded at this time, "The demon pill is used for alchemy, and it is very effective, and it can even allow the monk to directly break through the realm." โ€

Lei Mu laughed, "Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and find it, whoever finds it will be who's!"

Several people frowned, "Since it's a team, it's naturally better to divide it evenly." โ€

"Divide the fart, whoever finds it will be whoever!" Reimu said, rushing out with the axe on his shoulder, and began to weave through the huge skeleton.

Qi Guanyan frowned, and He Yunqiu also began to search.

Only Liu Ao and Tong Ying remained in place.

"I'm a little scared," Tong Ying pitifully grabbed the hem of Liu Ao's clothes, "Let's go together?"

Liu Ao did not refuse, and slowly walked forward.

Without Qi Guanyan's lighting beads, the surroundings were dark.

Liu Ao took out his luminite stone from the storage bag at this time, this thing was more powerful than a lighting bead, and instantly illuminated the three feet around Liu Ao.

Tong Ying became happy, "Why didn't you take it out earlier if you have a night stone?"

Liu Ao glanced at her and asked rhetorically:

"Why did you take it out earlier?"

Tong Ying was speechless for a while.

ยทยท

To say that this kid Lei Mu is also tough, he actually carried a burning corpse fire for illumination, and kept looking for the demon pill.

I saw him suddenly trot for a while, his face was overjoyed, and he suddenly squatted down and reached out to pick up a dark red bead the size of a fist.

But in the next moment, I don't know what happened, the bones under his feet suddenly broke, and the whole person fell down sharply.

Hearing the movement, Liu Ao hurriedly ran over with Tong Ying, but saw that Qi Guanyan and his wife had already arrived first.

"Lei Mu has fallen," Qi Guanyan looked anxious, "I don't know if he is still alive." โ€

"Ah~"

Lei Mu's cry of pain came from below, "My stomach was pierced by bones, Qi Guanyan, pull me up!"

Qi Guanyan was about to put down the ice silk, but was pulled by Yun Qiu, "The demon pill is in his hand." โ€

Qi Guanyan was stunned, then leaned over and shouted:

"Lei Mu, I'll pull you up, but if the demon pill is to count us as two husbands and wives, this request is not too much, right?"

Reimu roared angrily, "At most, you'll have one!"

Qi Guanyan shook his head, "Lei Mu, you think about it again." โ€

Tong Ying spoke at this time, "Brother Qi, why don't you rescue Lei Mu first?"

"Silly girl," Qi Guanyan looked at Tong Ying, "Lei Mu got the demon pill, I saved his life, and it is natural to ask for a reward." โ€

Tong Ying naturally understood this truth, so she opened her mouth and persuaded her:

"Brother Lei, you can agree, the demon pill is not as important as your own life. โ€

Lei Mu was silent for a moment, and said angrily:

"Lao Tzu agrees, hurry up and pull me up!"

Qi Guanyan put down the ice silk with a smile, and after Lei Mu pulled it, he began to slowly pull him up.

Liu Ao stood a foot away, but quietly put his hand on the hilt of the sword.

Tong Ying sighed, "Brother Liu Ming, our trip is in vain." โ€

Liu Ao didn't answer, his eyes were fixed on Qi Guanyan.

Lei Mu's figure finally became clear, he grabbed the ice silk with his left hand, covered his stomach with his right hand, and his arms were bulging.

"Come," Qi Guanyan stretched out his right hand, "I'll pull you up." โ€

Lei Mu looked pained and stretched out his hand.

In the next moment, I saw the expression on Qi Guanyan's face change.

The original kind smile disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a sinister face.

"Give me the demon pill. โ€

Lei Mu was stunned, "When Lao Tzu sells the demon pill, he will naturally share your share." โ€

"No, no, no," Qi Guanyan grinned, "What I said was to give me the entire demon pill." โ€

"If you don't want me to loosen the ice silk, you'd better do what I say. โ€

Lei Mu's eyes were about to erupt with fire, "You've been pretending to be a good person, you're the most insidious!"

"Say whatever you want," Qi Guanyan pulled the ice silk, and Lei Mu was instantly swayed.

Qi Guanyan's eyes were cold, "Give it or not!"

On the side, Tong Ying was stunned by this scene, "Brother Qi, you..."

"Stand back!" Yun Qiu drew his sword violently and looked at Liu Ao and Tong Ying indifferently, "If you don't want to die, just retreat!"

Liu Ao sneered, "It's really good acting." โ€

Lei Mu's eyes cracked, "Qi Guanyan, pull Lao Tzu up!"

"Give me the demon pill!"

Lei Mu suddenly took out the demon pill from his arms, "Pull me up, or I'll throw the demon pill away!"

"There are cracks in the ground everywhere below, and you will definitely not be able to find this demon pill when the time comes!"

"Lao Tzu's stomach is pierced, don't you dare to pull me up!"

Qi Guanyan snorted coldly, stretched out his hand, and pulled Lei Mu up, but before Lei Mu could stand firmly, he was pierced through the shoulder by Qi Guanyan's sword.

"Now you don't have any threat," Qi Guanyan stretched out his hand and said with a smile:

"Brother Lei Mu, give me the demon pill, otherwise, no one will take you up for a while. โ€

Yun Qiu also looked at Liu Ao and Tong Ying coldly, "If you want us to take you up, you will pay for it." โ€

Tong Ying was already dumbfounded, her voice was already crying, and she took out dozens of taels of silver from her arms, "That's all I have." โ€

"Then you just wait to die," Yunqiu looked at Liu Ao again, "What about you?"

Liu Ao's eyes were cold, "I don't have either." โ€

On the other side, Lei Mu was shaking his hand and handed the demon pill to Qi Guanyan.

Qi Guanyan smiled greedily and reached out to take it.

But in the next moment, a mutation protrusion.

Lei Mu's right hand, which was originally covering his stomach, suddenly let go, and he pulled out the axe behind his back and slashed at Qi Guanyan's arm.

Qi Guanyan's face changed greatly, and his body quickly retreated, but he saw that there was no wound on Lei Mu's stomach at all.

"You pretended!"

Lei Mu's body quickly retreated, and he put the demon pill back into his arms, grinning and glancing at his bleeding shoulder.

"Liu Ming, why are you still stunned!"

Lei Mu's eyes cracked, "Give it to me Qi Guanyan, you kill Yunqiu!"

"Otherwise, none of us will be able to get out!"

Yun Qiu was already standing back to back with Qi Guanyan at this time, looking at Liu Ao vigilantly.

The four of them are all intermediate martial artists, and in the situation of two against two, Yun Qiu feels that he has no advantage in winning.

"Liu Ming, as long as you don't make a move, we will take you out, and the demon pill will also be counted as yours!" Qi Guanyan's face was gloomy, "How do you choose?"

Liu Ao suddenly smiled, "You fight slowly, I won't participate." โ€

Lei Mu roared, "Are you a fool? they kill me, and then they will kill you!"

But Liu Ao didn't speak, holding his hands in front of his chest, completely watching a play.

Qi Guanyan sneered and rushed towards Lei Mu with Yun Qiu.

In just three moves, Lei Mu was kicked and smashed on a bone.

Seeing that he was about to be killed, Lei Mu was also ruthless, and slashed his axe on the huge skeleton under his feet, and heard a click, and the huge skeleton continued to tremble, as if it was about to begin to collapse.

"Damn!" Qi Guanyan scolded angrily, the demon pill has not yet arrived, but if he doesn't withdraw, he can't leave this place.

Remu laughed maniacally, "If you want to kill me, then let's all die here together." โ€

But in the next moment, a terrifying momentum suddenly appeared.

Liu Ao took a step forward and slowly pulled out the sword of Ao.

saw a flash of red light, and Liu Ao's figure instantly rushed towards Qi Guanyan.

Seeing this, Lei Mu hurriedly got up and rushed towards Yunqiu in pain.

The skeleton began to crumble, and one by one, huge bones began to fall.

Liu Ao split the bones that fell down with a sword, and in the next moment, the spiritual power in his body gushed out.

A blood-red vortex formed around Liu Ao, and the aura of this space instantly surged towards Liu Ao.

Seeing the red light of the proud sword, the dense mysterious runes on the sword body continued to flicker, and a three-zhang long sword qi rushed towards Qi Guanyan with fierce killing intent.

Feeling the momentum of this move, Qi Guanyan's pupils shrank sharply, and he exclaimed, "You are a senior martial artist!"

"It's too late to know," Liu Ao snorted coldly, and saw Qi Guanyan being blasted away by the sword qi, and then hit by a skeleton that fell down, and his body fell down at a rapid speed.

"Husband!" Yun Qiu's eyes turned red instantly, and the long sword in his hand flew up, cutting off one of Lei Mu's arms.

Then, I saw a flash of silver light flashing in Yun Qiu's sleeves, and another ice silk shot out, instantly enveloping Qi Guanyan.

But at this time, the huge skeleton could no longer support it, and with a bang, it collapsed violently.

Liu Ao's pupils shrank sharply, grabbed a piece of ice silk that fell on the ground, drove it with spiritual power, and shot it upwards violently.
