Chapter 234: An Unexpected Situation
When Qin Yan came to Yuyang Peak, it was already crowded with disciples who had come to observe the battle. The crowd was bustling, and the noisy sound scattered the birds on the branches. Qin Yan looked at it at a glance, his field of vision was full of human heads, and he didn't have time to distinguish the appearance of human faces. Even if he used the Searching God Spell, he couldn't find the figure of Gong Yunchou from too many details.
Seeing that the time was approaching, Qin Yan pressed down his anxious thoughts, and secretly thought in his heart: There are many noisy people here, but there is an unobstructed view, there is no corner that can hide people, and Gong Yunchong should not be here. She knew that I would come looking for her, and that she might be hiding somewhere in the mountains, and that she would not come up until the time came, and that I would not be able to force her from playing in front of so many people...... Hey! In order to die under the sword of Song Xing, she really took great pains! If it weren't for Ling'er, I wouldn't bother to care about this idle business!
He stood on the edge of the cliff at the top of the hill and looked down, below which was a vast sea of forests and mist. The earth is verdant, the hills are undulating, and the snow-capped river has become a bent white line, coming from the invisible east, passing through this land, coiling around the undulating mountains, and like a long snake scurrying into the equally unreachable northwest junction of heaven and earth. He didn't have the heart to appreciate the beautiful scenery this time, and his eyes circled down the curved mountain stone steps, searching for the gray figure.
The time has come.
Qin Yan's heart calmed down like never before. Gong Yunsleeve hasn't come yet, and if she appears now, she won't be able to stop it. But, what's even more weird is that Ge Xinglie didn't come.
Granny Yan, who was indifferent, inserted a stick of incense in the incense jar, and the gray smoke rose and began to count down the schedule. When a stick of incense is burned, if the contestant does not arrive, it will be regarded as a waiver.
Watching the incense pillar drop in section, the sound of people arguing and talking became more and more lively. In the midst of the chaotic chatter of many bees and ants, Qin Yan heard a lot of news about Ge Xinglie:
Ge Xingyeol has always been very positive, he is keen to see his opponent hold back his fear in front of him, and before today, he was never late.
Some people say that when he went up the mountain, he saw Ge Xinglie walking in front of him, but he disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Ge Xinglie is rarely interested in anything, he only has two hobbies, sword practice and kill......ing!
Maybe he met his opponent this time at the bottom of the mountain, and he couldn't wait to get into the ring, so he killed her?
This claim was quickly refuted by another person. If there is one thing that interests Ge Xingyeol more than killing, it is killing people in front of everyone. He rejoices in sharing the bloody fruits of battle with people, while appreciating their excitement or fear, so that his perverted fetishes can be greatly satisfied. If the prey that can be enjoyed in public is quietly dealt with in private, wouldn't it be a lot less flavorful?
No one believed that Ge Xinglie would intercept and kill Gong Yunchong, and people were more willing to believe that he was in unprecedented trouble, such as the ambush of Cheng Gang and others, and so on.
Qin Yan looked around, and sure enough, he didn't see Cheng Gang, Song Qingsha, Yan Yu and others. Could it be that they really went to ambush Ge Xinglie? Did Gong Yunchong also go with them? But if so, why didn't she know what to say to herself. Even if Young Master Ben doesn't help, at least it won't hinder their actions!
It was when he was in a daze and confusion that he suddenly seemed to hear something important, but in the midst of the noise, the man's voice could not be heard at all, and all he could distinguish was the aftersound.
It was only after casting the Soul Search Spell that the key words reappeared in his ears in their entirety: "Hey, Fourth, do you remember the wooden pavilion on the mountainside? It was the pavilion that I only discovered after taking the wrong road! It was very remote, and there were not many people who usually went there, so did you think Senior Brother Ge would be led to that place?"
There is a fork in the road halfway up the mountain, why hasn't Master Ben noticed it all the time!
Qin Yan didn't want to listen to the man's nonsense with the fourth child in his mouth anymore, so he went straight to the man and asked in a condensed voice, "Where is the fork in the road you said?"
The man was taken aback by Qin Yan's sudden appearance, and was about to salute, but Qin Yan pinched his wrist and said coldly: "No need to be polite." Tell me, where is that fork in the road?"
"Just, just a little above the Sili Monument, next to a big locust tree, blocked by a few Kunsang trees......"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that his hand was loosened, and there was no trace of Qin Yan in front of him.
Qin Yan went down the stairs and galloped all the way.
On the top of the Sili Monument...... Next to the big locust tree...... A few Kunmulberry trees...... Found it, here it is!
Sure enough, it is very hidden, and people who come and go in a hurry generally do not pay attention to this kind of place.
Qin Yan pushed aside the branches and plunged into it.
All the way through is a narrow dense forest, a small path in the middle, and the branches and leaves on both sides of the road are broken together, as if they have been opened up by someone with a fierce sword qi.
This further confirmed Qin Yan's speculation. With such a powerful sword qi, but using it to open the way, except for himself and Ge Xinglie, there will probably be no one else!
After hurriedly walking more than ten steps, Qin Yan sensed a faint bleak aura coming from in front of him, which was the breath of Song Xinglie. In addition, there are several strong and long auras hidden around here, probably Cheng Gang, Fang Yiyuan and others, who are lurking in the woods, but they have not made a move, maybe they are waiting for Qin Yan's arrival. But Qin Yan didn't have a chance to hesitate, he smelled a faint smell of blood, and also sensed the existence of Gong Yunsleeve, under the suppression of Ge Xinglie's majesty, her breath was already very weak, like a candle flame swaying in the wind.
Qin Yan knew that he was in the hands of the Chenggang generation when he rushed over like this, but he had no choice!
"Here he comes. Song Qingsha, who was deep in the dense forest, caught a glimpse of the white-clothed shadow passing by, and called out softly, "It's a pity that Senior Sister Gong probably can't hold on......" Speaking of this woman who has always been hostile to her, there was a little regret and melancholy in her words.
Fang Yiyuan, who was beside her, said lightly: "What does the life and death of Gong Yunsleeve have to do with you and me, we just need to sit and watch the show." ”
"I'm just worried that if we sit idly by, the Chief will blame us. ”
Fang Yiyuan snorted: "Gong Yunsleeve was killed by his own ignorance, and if the surnamed Qin wants to blame us, he must survive under the Xiaoge Sword first." When the two of them decide the winner, we'll settle the rest of the way. ”
"You want to kill him with you?"
"Hey! God is to blame. Now is such a good opportunity, why don't you take advantage of it, do you still wait for him to recover and ask us for his guilt?"
