Xiaohong looked at the newly added scars on the man in white with heartache. She carefully took out the ointment she carried with her and gently applied it to his wound. The man in white looked at her gently, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
Zhang Langzhong was on the side, carefully bandaging Liehuo's wounds and fixing his broken ribs with cloth strips.
Everyone supports each other and helps each other. At the critical moment of life and death, they show unparalleled unity and friendship.
The more everyone fought, the braver they became, and the Heisha side was completely defeated.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Heisha knew that he would not get any advantage today, so he wanted to retreat.
He swung his finger and forced the man in white to retreat, turning around and trying to escape.
"I want to run away? It's not that easy!" Zhao Blacksmith roared and was about to pursue him, but was stopped by the man in white.
Heisha's figure gradually disappeared into the night, leaving only a voice full of hatred: "Today's hatred, I, Heisha, will return a hundred times!"
Everyone looked at the direction of Heisha's escape,
Everyone looked at the direction where the black evil disappeared, and the night was as thick as ink, as if they were about to devour everything.
The air was filled with the smell of blood, mixed with the dampness of the soil, which was disgusting.
Everyone's face was full of solemnity. The threat of the Black Evil was not lifted. Instead, it was like a sharp sword hanging above his head, which could fall at any time.
The surrounding woods rustled in the night wind like ghosts whispering, adding a bit of gloomy and horror.
Doctor Zhang covered his faintly ached arm, and the fight just now cost him a lot of energy.
"This Hei Sha escaped, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles!" He sighed, his tone full of worry.
"Yes, this devil is full of tricks. Let him escape today, and it will be difficult to catch him next time." Elder Chen stroked his long beard and frowned.
Luo Xiaoyu was a little dissatisfied, "What are you afraid of? There are so many of us, but I am afraid that no one of them will succeed? Let's catch up now and get rid of the weeds!" She said, and was about to chase after her.
"Don't be reckless!" Elder Chen grabbed her, "Don't chase the poor enemy, let alone we are all injured and need rest."
"But..." Luo Xiaoyu wanted to argue, but was interrupted by the man in white.
"Elder Chen's words are reasonable. We should not pursue it now." The man in white looked around with sharp eyes. "This forest is full of dangers. Let's find a safe place to rest first, and then make a long-term plan."
Everyone began to check their injuries and equipment.
Zhao Blacksmith's hammer was covered with blood. He wiped it hard, as if he wanted to completely erase the traces of the black evil.
Liehun's ribs were broken and his face was pale, but he endured the pain and did not want others to worry.
Xiaohong held the hand of the man in white tightly.
"What should we do now?" Xiaohong's voice trembled a little.
The man in white patted her hand gently and gave her a comforting look.
"Don't worry, we'll find a way."
Everyone was silent for a moment, and the atmosphere was a little depressed.
"I suggest finding a place to rest first and recover your strength." Elder Chen suggested again.
"No! We must find Heisha's nest as soon as possible and completely eradicate this disaster!" Luo Xiaoyu still insisted on his own opinion.
The two sides were in a stalemate and the atmosphere became tense.
Others also had their own ideas, some agreed with Elder Chen’s opinion, while others supported Luo Xiaoyu.
Seeing this, the man in white took a deep breath and said, "It's better to do this, let's first..."
Before he could finish his words, a strange sound came from a distance, like the roar of a wild beast, or like some unknown creature being hissing.
Everyone suddenly became alert, clenched the weapons in their hands, and looked vigilantly in the direction where the sound came.
The man in white changed his face and whispered, "Not good..." Sweat soaked his clothes and stuck to his body sticky, and everyone felt a burst of fatigue.
The fierce battles before and the disputes at this moment were like a dull knife, slowly wearing down their will.
Luo Xiaoyu's impulse, Elder Chen's caution, Xiaohong's worry, the calmness of the man in white, and all kinds of emotions intertwined, making the air dull.
The night wind brings no longer coolness, but a biting chill, as if it indicates that greater danger is coming.
The strange sound was getting closer and closer, from far to near, like countless crawlers squirming on the ground, making their scalp numb.
The shadows of the woods twisted and deformed in the swaying fire, like monsters with fangs and claws, ready to pounce on them at any time.
Liehuo groaned, his fingers covering his wound trembled, and his face became paler.
He felt the air around him become sticky and his breathing becomes difficult, as if an invisible hand was stalking his throat.
Blacksmith Zhao held the hammer tightly, his palms were covered in sweat. He felt his heart beating violently, almost popping out of his chest.
Xiaohong held the package tightly, and the treasure hurt her chest.
She felt that the treasure was no longer hope, but a curse that led them into this dangerous situation.
If they hadn't discovered this treasure at the beginning, they might have been living in peace, and would not have been like the frightened birds, always facing the threat of death.
She raised her head and looked at the resolute side face of the man in white, her heart full of helplessness and fear.
At this moment, a figure slowly walked out from the depths of the woods, his clothes fluttering, like a banished immortal.
Everyone was shocked, raised their weapons one after another, and stared at the person who came vigilantly.
With the fire, they saw clearly the face of the visitor. It turned out to be Qing Xuanzi who had not seen for a long time.
"Qing Xuanzi?!" everyone exclaimed.
Qing Xuanzi smiled slightly, glanced at everyone, and finally stopped on the package in Xiaohong's hand.
"I know you're in trouble," he spoke slowly, his voice as pleasant as a clear spring, "I can help you."
Everyone looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts.
Why did this mysterious Qing Xuanzi suddenly appear?
Why did he help them?
"What are your conditions?" The man in white stepped forward, blocked Xiaohong's body, and asked in a deep voice.
Qing Xuanzi smiled, "It's very simple, do me a little favor."
Everyone hesitated. They didn't know what to sell in Qing Xuanzi's gourd, but the current situation seemed to have no other choice.
"What's the busy thing?" asked Elder Chen.
Qing Xuanzi reached out and pointed to the package in Xiaohong's hand, "Open it."
Qing Xuanzi took out a few talismans with strange light and a bottle of medicinal powder that emitted a fragrance from his wide sleeves.
"These talismans can dispel the miasma around them and the illusions that confuse the mind, while this medicine powder can quickly restore your physical strength and internal injuries." He distributed these things to everyone, his tone was calm but with unquestionable power.
Everyone took the talisman and medicine powder, as if they had held hope.
The talisman was warm and exuded a faint warmth, dispelling the fear in their hearts.
The aroma of the medicine powder is refreshing. After inhaling it, it feels refreshed and the feeling of fatigue is wiped out.
Doctor Zhang took the medicine powder, looked carefully, and his eyes showed a look of surprise.
"This... this is the long-lost 'Rejuvenation Powder'! It actually exists!" He trembled and took the medicine powder, feeling a warm current flowing all over his body, and his arm, which had been aching, miraculously healed.
Others also took medicine powder and felt the changes in their bodies.
"Thank you, Senior Qing Xuanzi!" Xiaohong thanked Qing Xuanzi excitedly. The man in white stood aside and looked at Xiaohong and Qing Xuanzi.
Luo Xiaoyu jumped up excitedly, "That's great! Now we can continue moving forward again!" She said, hugging Wang Liehuo's shoulder and patted hard.
"How is it? Brother Wang, do you have confidence?" Wang Liehuo was a little breathless when she was photographed, but he still smiled honestly, "Yes! Of course there is!"
With the help of Qing Xuanzi, everyone rekindled hope.
They put the talisman on their bodies and suddenly felt that the air around them was much fresher, and the originally depressing atmosphere was also swept away.
The shadows of the woods are no longer so terrible, and the night wind becomes gentler.
"Okay, now we can continue to move forward." Qing Xuanzi said, with a hint of mystery in his tone, "I know where you are going, and I will take you there."
Everyone looked at each other, and they followed Qing Xuanzi and walked towards the depths of the woods.
The night was still thick, but their hearts were filled with light.
"Wait," Xiaohong suddenly grabbed the sleeve of the man in white, "Are we really going to follow him?"
The man in white held Xiaohong's hand tightly and said, "Believe me."
They continued to move forward with firm and powerful steps.
What will be waiting for them ahead?
Qing Xuanzi suddenly stopped and pointed to a towering ancient tree in front of him, "It's there."
They walked lightly and walked through the deep forest. The talisman emitted a faint light in the night, like the stars leading the way.
The wind is no longer a cold whisper, but with a little refreshing whisper, blowing away the previously suppressed dullness.
Luo Xiaoyu walked in front, occasionally turning around and showing a bright smile to the friends behind her.
Liehuo carried his hunting fork, with firm steps and a bit of anticipation on his honest face.
However, as they penetrated, the surrounding trees began to become distorted, and the trunks were surrounded by wrinkles like the old man. The moonlight was also blocked by heavy branches and leaves, and no trace of light could be revealed.
The gloomy atmosphere gradually became stronger, and there seemed to be a certain decay smell floating in the air, which made people feel a burst of discomfort.
The originally relaxed atmosphere disappeared, and everyone's smiles gradually solidified, replaced by the vigilance and seriousness between their eyebrows.
Suddenly, a deafening roar broke through the night sky, as if the demonic sound from hell, instantly shattering the hope that had just risen in everyone's hearts.
A huge black shadow suddenly jumped out from the depths of the forest. It was a rock demon with a body like a hill!
Its body is covered with hard rocks, ferocious spikes protruding from its back, and its red eyes are like two burning flames, emitting a terrifying and fierce light.
Everyone was stunned by the sudden change, and an irresistible sense of fear instantly enveloped their whole body.
The appearance of the rock demon was like an insurmountable gap, completely shattering their original confidence.
Before they could come back to their senses, the Rock Demon had already waved its huge arm and rushed towards the crowd.
The strong wind wrapped around gravel and roared at everyone, and the surrounding trees were easily destroyed like paper.
"Do not!" the man in white shouted loudly, trying to organize everyone to fight back, but in the face of such a powerful monster, any resistance seemed pale and powerless.
Everyone dodged in a mess and fled around under the giant claws of the rock demon, and the scene was in chaos.
Although Luo Xiaoyu was straightforward and reckless, she was so scared that her face was pale. She barely raised the short sword in her hand, but she didn't even have the courage to attack when facing the huge body of the Rock Demon.
The man in white held the dagger in his hand tightly, trying to find the weakness of the rock demon.
His body was like lightning, traveling through the rock demon's attack gap, but he could never find an effective breakthrough.
The rock demon's attack was not only amazingly powerful, but also amazingly fast. It waved its huge arms, and each attack could create a huge deep pit on the ground, as if it was about to tear the entire earth apart.
Grandma Lin hid behind Liehuo, grabbed the corner of his clothes with her hands, and kept muttering, "Blessed by Bodhisattva, Blessed by Bodhisattva."
Doctor Zhang tried hard to remain calm. He stared at every move of the Rock Demon, trying to find a flaw in it.
"It won't work if this continues!" The man in white looked gloomy. He looked at Qing Xuanzi, as if he was seeking help.
Qing Xuanzi slowly shook his head.
Everyone was in a desperate situation. At this moment, the rock demon roared again. This time, its target was directly aimed at the most conspicuous Xiaohong in the crowd...
"No--"
Flying sand and stones cover the sky and the sun.
The huge figure of the Rock Demon enveloped everyone, and every time he stepped on the ground, the ground trembled violently, as if it would collapse at any time.
The thick trees were broken like straw, and the decayed breath mixed with the smell of dust, making everyone almost unable to breathe.
Despair spread in everyone's heart, as if the shadow of death had enveloped them.
The Rock Demon's huge arm swept across, and Liehuo could not dodge and was rubbed on his shoulder.
Suddenly, the sound of the flesh tearing was clearly heard, and the blood instantly dyed the clothes red.
He groaned, staggered back, and blood kept gushing out between his fingers covering his wounds.
Grandma Lin exclaimed, panickedly trying to check Li Liehun's injuries, but was pushed away by him, "Go away! Don't worry about me!"
Xiaohong looked at the injured Liewoo and her heart sank to the bottom.
She hugged the package in her arms tightly, which contained their hope for this trip, but also became a burden at this moment.
Fear and despair drowned her like a tide. She felt weak all over and her legs were as heavy as lead.
Could it be that they really want to be buried here?
Will all their efforts be wasted?
At this moment, Zhao Blacksmith, who had been silent all the time, suddenly shouted, "I know its weakness! Below its left eye!" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and looked at Zhao Blacksmith in disbelief.
At this moment, Zhao Blacksmith changed his dullness and his eyes were shining with a firm light.
He raised the hammer in his hand and rushed towards the Rock Demon desperately, "I'll attract its attention, you can find an opportunity to attack!"
The sudden change caught everyone off guard. When Zhao Blacksmith was stunned, he rushed to the front of the Rock Demon.
He waved his hammer and slammed the rock demon hard on the legs, making a deafening metallic impact.
The rock demon was in pain and let out a roar, and his huge body swayed slightly.
"It's now!" The man in white shouted softly, his figure flashed, and he rushed out first...
Zhao's blacksmith's roar was like a war drum, beating in everyone's hearts.
The man in white was like an arrow and rushed out first. The short sword in his hand was cold and thrust directly under the rock demon's left eye.
At the same time, Luo Xiaoyu followed closely behind, flew away with a short sword, and slashed towards the same position with the sound of breaking the wind.
Although Liehuo was injured, he still gritted his teeth, waved the hunting fork in his hand, and stabbed the rock demon in his legs.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Crack!" A series of impact sounded, and the rock demon's hard rock skin finally appeared cracks, and gravel splashed, making a harsh friction sound.
It roared in pain, and the sound waves made everyone's eardrums buzz.
In the red eyes, the evil light disappeared a little, replaced by a hint of horror.
Seeing the Rock Demon injured, everyone was greatly excited, and their fear was swept away, and replaced by a sense of accomplishment that they had never had before.
Doctor Zhang helped the sliding glasses, his eyes flashed with excitement, and he joined the attack.
Grandma Lin also walked out from behind Liehuo and waved the crutches in her hand. Although it did not cause actual damage, it also made the Rock Demon even more panicked.
With the concerted efforts of everyone, the crack below the rock demon's left eye gradually widened, and the sound of rock shattering was endless.
It waved its arms frantically, trying to repel everyone, but was flexibly dodged away by everyone.
Finally, with the loud "boom", the huge body of the Rock Demon fell to the ground, and the dust in the sky was raised.
"We won!" Luo Xiaoyu jumped up excitedly and waved the short knife in her hand.
Everyone cheered, and the joy of surviving the disaster filled everyone's hearts.
Xiaohong hugged the man in white excitedly, with tears in her eyes.
The man in white gently stroked Xiaohong's hair, while Luo Xiaoyu held Grandma Lin's hand, and the two jumped and jumped happily.
Everyone slapped each other, conveying the joy of victory and the friendship of fighting side by side.
Where the Rock Demon fell, a deep entrance appeared, and the stone walls around the entrance were carved with ancient runes.
Deep in the entrance, there was a faint blue light, mysterious and charming, as if seducing everyone into it.
An inexplicable force was attracting them, as if there was a huge secret hidden in it.
"Here..." Elder Chen walked forward, stroked the stone wall at the entrance,
Everyone approached the mysterious entrance carefully, their eyes full of curiosity and vigilance.
The stone wall at the entrance is carved with ancient runes, and those runes seem to be flickering slightly, emitting a strange light.
A wave of chill came from the depths of the entrance, making people shudder, as if something ominous was waiting for them.
Xiaohong held the hand of the man in white tightly, and the beads of sweat on her cheeks seemed particularly obvious under the faint blue light.
Luo Xiaoyu tightened the short knife in her hand, frowned, showing a firm determination.
The man in white took a deep breath and stepped into the entrance first.
His figure looked particularly handsome in the faint blue light, but there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
Everyone followed closely behind, and although their steps were firm, their hearts were filled with uneasiness.
The space inside the entrance is narrow and cold, and water droplets dripped from time to time on the stone wall, making a "tick" sound, echoing around, making a particularly harsh sound.
Chapter completed!
