Chapter 42: Strange

Early the next morning, the two people of the Huoxia Gang who had already been from the Shengxuan Gang gathered at the gate of the Holy Sword Sect, and it was the eight guides who came to see them off.

Seeing the elated appearance of everyone, the eighth director felt the need to sound the alarm for them, so he solemnly said to everyone: "This training mission, although it is only to kill a late thunder leopard, but you must not relax your vigilance, and when you bring back the head of the thunder leopard, you will be considered to have completed the task, do you understand?"

"Understood!" the crowd said to the Eight Guides.

The eight guides nodded slightly, and then turned their gaze to Mu Wufeng, and the two looked at each other, as if they were making eye contact.

Mu Wufeng was naturally aware of the reason why the Eight Guides were looking at him.

On the one hand, there is no doubt that he is the strongest man in this team. So if there is really any accident, you have to rely on Mu Wufeng to protect the members of this team.

On the other hand, in this team, there are six people in the Huoxia Gang, and there are only two in the Shengxuan Gang.

In order to reassure the eighth guide, Mu Wufeng hugged his fists and said to the eighth guide: "Eight guides rest assured, I will bring this team back healthy and intact." ”

After the eighth guide heard Mu Wufeng's assurance, he no longer worried about anything, and waved his big hand and said, "You can go." ”

Hearing that the eight guides had been released, everyone no longer hesitated and hurried to Wuxi Forest.

On the way, the two members of the Huoxia Gang and the Shengxuan Gang gradually became familiar with each other, laughing and joking with each other, which was very harmonious.

But Mu Wufeng was the only one, looking at the introduction and map of the Wuxi Forest with a solemn face, and shaking his head from time to time, which was incomprehensible.

In fact, there are only four huge clear streams flowing down from the four springs on the mountain that seem to have been arranged by nature.

In these four crystal clear streams, many species of fish are bred and these fish are also essential food for the villagers of the five villages that usually live in these four streams.

Since these four streams flow down from the mountains one by one in one direction, and there is still a short distance between the four streams, the villagers of these five villages live near the streams.

The five villages, from Yixi to Wuxi, are connected to each other by bridges built over the streams, and the names of the villages indicate which stream their villages are next to.

Unlike the other three villages, they were able to obtain fish from two streams, and these two villages could only obtain fish from one stream, which often caused dissatisfaction among the villagers of this stream and Wuxi Village.

After reading the introduction of these Wuxi Forests, Mu Wufeng wondered in his heart: "This thunder leopard is withdrawn by nature, does not like to contact with people, and does not eat human flesh, how can it attack Wuxi Village so frequently, and there will be a difference between severity and severity, the number and severity of attacks in the second to fourth rivers are the strongest, especially in Sanxi Village, is this really a coincidence..."

Moreover, there are only two to four creek villages that have asked for help from the Holy Sword Sect this time, could it be that there is already a gap between these Wuxi villages?

The more Mu Wufeng thought about it, the more he felt his brain hurt, so he stopped thinking about it and rubbed the back of his head with both hands.

Ding Zitong and Yang Jie saw this scene at the same time, and the two also discovered where each other's eyes were, and the two women glanced at each other.

Yang Jie nodded at Ding Zitong and motioned for Ding Zitong to go, while she retracted her steps and sighed lightly in her heart, after all, Mu Wufeng likes Ding Zitong instead of her now, and she is not qualified to care about Mu Wufeng.

Ding Zitong gave Yang Jie a grateful look, and then Yuzu lightly walked towards Mu Wufeng, who was rubbing the back of his head.

She stretched out her slender jade hands, and while helping Mu Wufeng rub the back of her head, she asked gently, "Wufeng, what's wrong with you?"

Since the relationship between the two was confirmed, Ding Zitong's attitude towards Mu Wufeng has become much gentler, like an ordinary girl, and even his address to Mu Wufeng has become intimate.

Mu Wufeng gently took away Ding Zitong's jade hand and said lightly, "It's nothing." ”

Ding Zitong was slightly stunned, this was the indifferent tone that Mu Wufeng would only use to her when the two of them had not established a relationship before, and it was even more cold than before, even with a hint of strangeness.

At the moment when Ding Zitong was stunned, Mu Wufeng pulled up one of Ding Zitong's jade hands again, and Ding Zitong also breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the temperature coming from the palm of his hand.

But what Ding Zitong didn't notice was that a trace of blood flashed in the deep eyes of Mu Wufeng, who had an indifferent tone just now, and this blood color was fleeting.

And the reason for Mu Wufeng's headache is naturally because of this blood, this blood color is the heart demon seed born when Mu Wufeng learned of the tragedy of the Sword God Sect more than half a year ago, this kind of seed grows secretly in his heart, unless the strength reaches the power of the Sword God level, it is impossible to find it.

And everyone just saw Mu Wufeng and Ding Zitong handing out dog food, and they pouted.

These two people, who are usually unattainable in the Holy Sword Sect, will actually put down their bodies for each other and exude some warmth.

It seems that because everyone is talking and laughing all the way, time flies very quickly, and when it was already dark, Mu Wufeng and his party also arrived not far from Yixi Village.

But Mu Wufeng motioned for everyone to quietly bypass Yixi Village and go to Erxi Village.

Although Sanxi Village was the most urgent among the villages that asked the Holy Sword Sect for help this time, Mu Wufeng still went to Erxi Village because he wanted to strike a balance between Yixi and Sanxi Village.

Mu Wufeng and his party quietly entered Erxi Village and went straight to the village chief's house.

The village chief of Erxi Village sat alone in the living room, still sighing, probably because of the recent constant attacks of the thunder leopard.

Mu Wufeng gently pushed open the door alone and entered the house of the village chief of Erxi Village, and the village chief was also frightened when he saw Mu Wufeng enter his house silently.

But Mu Wufeng then spoke, "Village Chief, we are disciples sent by the Holy Sword Sect to help you clear out the Thunder Leopard. ”

But the village chief still asked with a puzzled expression, "Shouldn't the disciples of the Holy Sword Sect go to Sanxi Village, why did they come to me?"

Mu Wufeng replied: "Village Chief, we don't want to make a noise, we will only stay here for one night, and we will go to Sanxi Village tomorrow, and you don't want to tell others about today's borrowing." ”

After the village chief nodded in agreement, Mu Wufeng also motioned for everyone to quietly enter the village chief's house.

Mu Wufeng said to the village chief again, "Village chief, can you tell us about the specific damage to several villages here?"

The village chief nodded and said, "In terms of damage, the housing facilities in Sanxi Village are the most seriously damaged, but because the village chief of Sanxi Village is the peak strength of the Nine Rank Sword Master and can withstand the attack of the Thunder Leopard, the villagers have not suffered any harm." Second, fourth, and the villagers of Xi Village were all seriously killed and injured, and many houses were destroyed. ”

The village chief paused and frowned and said, "But that, Wuxi Village only has some dead and injured villagers, and there is almost no damage to the housing facilities or something. ”

After listening to the words of the village chief of Erxi Village, everyone became suspicious.

After all, the casualties were the smallest, and they did not ask for help from the Holy Sword Sect like other villages, which gave everyone reason to suspect these two villages.

Although Mu Wufeng also had some doubts about this and Wuxi Village, he still suppressed his suspicions and asked, "What is the strength of the village chiefs of these five villages?"

The village chief said: "Among these five villages, the strongest strength is naturally the Sanxi village chief who is at the peak of the Nine Rank Sword Master, and then the village chief of the late stage of the Nine Rank Sword Master of our other four villages. ”

After listening to the introduction of the village chief of Erxi, it seems that all kinds of strange deeds point to the reason why the thunder leopard attacked the village, Wuxi Village.

"But is it really that simple and simple?" Mu Wufeng couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

This, the village chief of Wuxi Village only has the strength of the middle stage of the Nine Rank Sword Master, how can he easily control the Thunder Leopard in the late stage of the First Rank?

If it weren't for these two village chiefs but someone else, then this person's strength should not be under Mu Wufeng.

What happened in Wuxi Forest this time is really not as simple as everyone thinks...
