"What the hell is this..." Elder Xuanfeng frowned. At this moment, he suddenly felt a powerful force approaching, and an unprecedented sense of crisis surged into his heart.
He suddenly looked up and saw that the man in white and Master Lingyin had already stood together, with a fierce murderous intent in his eyes.
The man in white was like lightning, his palm was fierce, and his every move was like a destruction.
Master Lingyin was solemn in his treasure and muttered something. The golden Buddha seal shining from the sky and hit the black-clothed killer like a huge rock.
Screams came one after another, and the killers in black fell to the ground like cut wheat, moaning in pain.
The black robes on their bodies were torn apart, revealing mottled scars, blood staining the ground red, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Seeing the enemy being injured, the people who were originally afraid suddenly became very motivated, and they waved their weapons and fought back hard.
Zhao Blacksmith's hammer was so strong that every blow made a deafening roar, smashing the black-clothed killers to the head and blood.
Wang Hunter's bow and arrow penetrated the willows with hundreds of steps, and the arrows cut through the night sky like meteors, accurately hitting the enemy's key points.
Even Xiaohong, who was usually weak, mustered up the courage to stab an enemy who was trying to get close with the dagger in her hand.
Elder Xuanfeng's face turned pale, and he watched his subordinates fall down one by one, his heart full of anger and helplessness.
He didn't expect that this group of seemingly weak villagers would have such powerful power.
He gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, like an angry beast.
Xiaohong snuggled tightly beside the man in white, feeling his warm embrace, and the fear in his heart gradually dissipated.
The man in white hugged her tightly, used his body to shield her from the wind and rain, and gave her an infinite sense of security.
Zhao Blacksmith and Wang Liehuang took care of each other back to back, and their tacit cooperation allowed them to be free and easy in the battle.
Grandma Lin stood in the distance and watched everyone fighting for the enemy.
Under the joint attack of everyone, the black-clad killers retreated step by step and eventually became defeated.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Elder Xuanfeng had to flee in a panic.
Before leaving, he glared at everyone fiercely and said gritting his teeth: "You wait for me, I will come back!"
Everyone looked at Elder Xuanfeng's escaped back, and their hearts were filled with shock and uneasiness.
They realized that the battle was just the beginning, and the conspiracy hidden behind it was far more complex and dangerous than they thought.
The atmosphere became solemn, and everyone's face was filled with worries.
"He...he will come back..." Xiaohong's voice trembled,
The man in white held her hand tightly and said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."
The night is as dark as ink, covering this weather-beaten village.
The remaining fire light jumped on everyone's faces, reflecting their solemn expressions.
Although the fierce battle just now won, Elder Xuanfeng's harsh words before leaving were like a sharp blade hanging in everyone's hearts and could not be removed.
The air was filled with a faint smell of blood, mixed with the smell of scorched earth, which made people breathless.
Xiaohong snuggled tightly beside the man in white, her face still pale, and her eyes were filled with lingering fear.
She trembled gently, like a grass swaying in the wind and rain.
"We...what should we do?" Her voice was as thin as a mosquito, but it was enough for everyone to feel her inner uneasiness.
Luo Xiaoyu looked around and frowned. Her straightforward personality made it difficult for her to accept this kind of passive waiting situation.
"You can't sit and wait for death, right? The old guy said he would come back again, there must be some conspiracy." She punched the wooden stake next to her, making a dull sound, as if venting the anxiety in her heart.
Grandma Lin sighed and looked a little tired while leaning on a crutch.
"Yes, this is definitely not simple behind it. We have to think of a solution." A look of worry appeared rarely on her kind face.
Elder Chen touched his beard and said slowly: "I remembered someone, maybe it could provide some clues." He paused and turned his eyes to Xiaohong, "Girl, do you still remember the most informed spirit bird in the world? Maybe you can ask her for information."
Xiaohong's eyes lit up, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Yes! Ling Bird! She knows all the news!" She said excitedly, her tone full of hope.
Everyone discussed and agreed to go to find the spiritual bird and find out the truth of the conspiracy.
After some search, they finally found the spirit bird in a dilapidated teahouse.
She was leaning lazily on the chair, playing with a delicate dagger in her hand. When she heard someone coming in, she just raised her eyelids and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Oh, you guys! Why, you want to ask me for information?" Her voice was a little hoarse, but full of charm.
Luo Xiaoyu took a step forward and said without hesitation: "Don't talk nonsense, we want to know about Elder Xuanfeng!"
The spirit bird giggled and accelerated the speed of playing with the dagger a little.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I'm not a little bit. You know, my news is very expensive and I don't have enough rewards, so I can't say anything."
"You are taking advantage of the situation!" Luo Xiaoyu frowned,
Lingque looked at her contemptuously, not taking her anger seriously.
"I only do transactions, but I have no obligation to help you. If I don't have money, get out of here."
Seeing the atmosphere was about to stalemate, the man in white took a step forward, and there was no expression on his cold face.
"I can exchange part of the power of the treasure." His voice was low and magnetic, with an unquestionable force.
When Lingque heard this, she suddenly put away her dagger, stood up, her eyes became serious, and she said, "Document. However, I need some time to collect clues."
She turned and walked deep into the room, her figure disappeared into the darkness, leaving everyone standing there, waiting silently.
The dim light in the teahouse sways, and the air is filled with the smell of old tea leaves and a faint musty smell.
Everyone was sitting on pins and needles while waiting for the spirit bird.
An inexplicable sense of uneasiness enveloped them, as if pairs of eyes were peering at their every move in the dark.
Xiaohong held the sleeves of the man in white tightly, and her fingertips turned white.
Luo Xiaoyu paced back and forth, looking out the window from time to time.
"I feel someone is watching us." Li Huo Ho lowered his voice, and his rough palm unconsciously clamped the hunting knife in his hand.
He hunts in the mountains and forests all year round and is extremely sensitive to changes in his surroundings.
"So too." Zhao Blacksmith echoed in a muffled voice, his burly body tightly tense, as if ready to fight at any time.
Only then did everyone notice that there were indeed some sneaky figures around the teahouse. They were hiding in the shadows, their eyes flashing like poisonous snakes waiting for an opportunity.
"Damn it! We are being monitored!" Luo Xiaoyu cursed lowly, and the anxiety in her heart was like boiling boiling water, making it difficult for her to calm down.
"Calm down." The man in white whispered, his voice like ice, but with a reassuring power.
"Look at the situation first."
Luo Xiaoyu suppressed the impulse in her heart, but she could not bear the feeling of being bound.
She quietly walked to the door, observed the situation outside, trying to find a way to get rid of surveillance.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past her eyes. Luo Xiaoyu was shocked and hurriedly dodged, but accidentally knocked down a table and made a loud noise.
Everyone in the teahouse suddenly became nervous and looked at the door.
Luo Xiaoyu's heartbeat accelerated, and cold sweat slid down her forehead.
She knew she was exposed.
At this critical moment, the spirit bird walked out of the depths of the room, holding a quaint wooden box in her hand.
"Finished." Her voice broke the tension.
Everyone was surprised to find that Zhang Langzhong, who had always been very concerned about money, actually took out a small cloth bag from his arms and opened it carefully. There were some precious medicinal materials inside, exuding a strong medicinal fragrance.
He handed the medicinal materials to Lingque, "These may be useful to you."
Lingque "I didn't expect that Doctor Zhang would have such a treasure. It seems that this transaction is worth my attention." She opened the wooden box and there was an ancient parchment scroll with some strange symbols and patterns on it.
"This is……"
Lingque was about to explain the content of the parchment, but suddenly stopped. She looked out the window vigilantly and whispered: "It seems that we don't have much time left."
The pattern on the parchment roll turned out to be a map pointing to a hidden valley.
Following the guide of the map, everyone walked through the dense jungle, broke away the vines that covered the sky and the sun, and finally came to a valley surrounded by cliffs.
The entrance of the valley is covered by huge rocks and dense vegetation, and it is extremely difficult to find without the guidance of the map.
"It's here!" Xiaohong pointed at Taniguchi, with a hint of excitement in her tone.
A cool breeze blew from the valley, with a humid and earthy smell, making people shudder.
"Be careful, there must be ambush here." The man in white whispered, scanning the surroundings with vigilance.
Everyone entered the valley carefully, and a gloomy breath came to their faces.
The light in the valley is dim, the rocks are rugged, and the shadows of the trees are swaying, like ghosts.
Suddenly, a clearing area appeared in front of him, and some simple wooden houses were built on the open space, which was the stronghold of Elder Xuanfeng.
Several men in black were sitting around the bonfire, talking in a low voice, without even noticed the arrival of everyone.
"Kill!" Luo Xiaoyu shouted sweetly and rushed out first.
Everyone followed closely behind, like a tiger descending the mountain, instantly surrounding the man in black.
The man in black caught off guard and suddenly became in chaos.
The sword lights and sword shadows, and the shouts of killing shocked the sky. The originally quiet valley instantly turned into a Shura field.
Luo Xiaoyu held two swords in her hand, like a dancing butterfly. Wherever the blade went, the men in black fell to the ground.
Blacksmith Zhao waved a huge hammer, like a god descending to earth, unstoppable.
The man in white has a erratic figure and his sword skills are exquisite. Each sword directly hits the enemy's key points.
The battle ended soon and the men in black were wiped out.
Everyone searched the base and found some important documents and items, including Elder Xuanfeng's conspiracy plan.
"What is this?" Xiaohong picked up a document and looked through it carefully, and her face gradually became solemn.
"What's wrong?" the man in white walked to her and asked with concern.
Xiaohong did not answer, but just handed the document to the man in white.
The man in white took the document and browsed it quickly, his face also became gloomy.
"This..." Elder Chen took the document with trembling hands. After reading it, his face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he couldn't speak.
Everyone looked at each other and the atmosphere became extremely solemn.
They realize that the dangers they face are far beyond their imagination.
"This...what is this?" Grandma Lin's voice trembled. She grabbed Elder Chen's sleeve tightly, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Elder Chen did not answer. He just shook his head powerlessly, looking ahead with empty eyes, as if he had seen something terrible.
Xiaohong grabbed the corner of the man in white tightly, and the man in white turned around and gave her a look of peace of mind.
Xiaohong felt a little relieved, but she still couldn't stop the trembling in her heart.
She looked up at the resolute side face of the man in white, as if she had grabbed a trace of light in the darkness.
"This... is even more complicated than we imagined..." Elder Chen murmured to himself, his voice low and hoarse, as if a sigh from the depths of hell.
In the dim room, candlelight swayed, reflecting the solemn faces of everyone.
The spread-out sheepskin scroll was filled with shocking plans.
Each word was like a sharp knife, piercing into their hearts, bringing waves of chill.
Xiaohong's fingers tightly clutched the corners of her clothes, and her knuckles turned white.
Luo Xiaoyu bit her lips tightly, her straightforward face full of anger.
Grandma Lin's breathing was rapid and heavy, and seemed to be under tremendous pressure.
Doctor Zhang pushed the glasses on his nose, and his eyes behind the lens showed unprecedented solemnity.
Even Elder Chen, who had always been kind, clenched his fists and his eyes were as sharp as torch.
The air seemed to solidify, so depressing that it made people breathless.
Outside the window, the sound of the wind whimpered and the roar of a wild beast, indicating that the storm was about to come.
The exposure of this conspiracy completely broke their peaceful life and pushed them to the brink of danger.
"Everyone," the man in white took a deep breath, breaking the suffocating silence. His voice was low and powerful, as stable as a rock. "Since they want to force us into a desperate situation, we will fight back!"
Everyone looked at the man in white in one go, his eyes full of determination and determination.
Luo Xiaoyu was the first to stand out. She pulled out the dagger on her waist, and her tone was strong, "Brother White, what do you think you will do? We will all listen to you!"
"Okay!" Xiaoyu, the man in white, Zhao Blacksmith, Liehun, Wang Liehun and me. We are responsible for the frontal breakthrough and must catch the elder Xuanfeng.
Doctor Zhang, you are responsible for picking up our response.
Master Lingyin, please help us at critical moments.
”
As soon as the words were finished, everyone began to act nervously and orderly.
Everyone knows that this is a life-and-death battle, and if you are not careful, you will be doomed.
They rushed out of the room and came to the courtyard.
However, a huge black shadow blocked their way.
It was a monster two feet tall and muscular, and it was the Shadow Demon.
It let out a roar that shook the sky and the earth, and the sound waves made people's eardrums hurt.
The Shadow Demon waved his huge arms and hit everyone like a giant hammer.
Luo Xiaoyu took the brunt, waved her dagger, trying to resist.
However, her attack was like a storm in front of the Shadow Demon, and had no effect.
Zhao Blacksmith and Liehuo also joined the battle. They waved their weapons, but could only barely resist the attack of the Shadow Demon.
The man in white has a flexible body and is constantly traveling between the shadow demon's attacks, looking for flaws.
The battle was in a stalemate, the Shadow Demon's attack became more and more fierce, and the defense line began to shake.
Luo Xiaoyu's tiger's mouth was numb and blood oozed out of the corners of her mouth.
Liehun's shoulder was scratched and his clothes were stained with blood.
Just as everyone was about to despair, Elder Chen suddenly exclaimed, "Wait! I seem to find its weakness!" He pointed to the back of the Shadow Demon and said anxiously, "There is a piece of scale on its back that is relatively weak! But..."
Before Elder Chen could finish his words, everyone understood what he meant.
If you want to attack the weakness of the Shadow Demon, someone must take the risk to approach it, but the Shadow Demon's attack range is too large, which is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous task.
"Let me do it!" Luo Xiaoyu raised his dagger and was about to rush forward.
"No!" The man in white stopped her, "You are too impulsive, and will disrupt our plans. Let me do it!"
A trace of determination flashed in the white-clothed man's eyes. He turned to everyone, and was about to give the task again. At this moment, the Shadow Demon suddenly roared again...
The Shadow Demon's roar was like thunder, shaking the ground.
Its huge palm swept out, and Blacksmith Zhao could not dodge and was knocked away. He fell heavily to the ground, spurting a mouthful of blood from his mouth, dyeing the ground red.
Liewoo was also shook back by the Shadow Demon's huge force, staggered a few steps, and almost fell down.
He covered his chest, his face pale, and obviously he was powerless to fight again.
Blood dripped along the corner of Zhao's blacksmith's mouth and fainted on the ground, like a blooming flower of death, heralding the arrival of despair.
Xiaohong hid behind everyone, watching her companions get hurt, and her heart is like a knife.
She held the jade pendant in her hand tightly, and the knuckles turned white. The cold touch of the jade pendant could not cool down the fear in her heart.
Hope seems to have become increasingly slim, like the candlelight that is about to go out, swaying.
At this moment, Xiaohong, who had been hiding behind everyone, suddenly rushed out.
Her petite figure looked so thin in front of the huge shadow demon, like a candlelight swaying in the wind, which could be swallowed at any time.
Everyone looked at her actions in shock, but they had no time to stop them.
"Xiaohong!" Grandma Lin exclaimed, trying to reach out to pull her, but it was too late.
Xiaohong rushed towards the Shadow Demon desperately, and the jade pendant in his hand emitted a dazzling light, like a sharp sword, stabbing the weakness of the Shadow Demon's back.
The light of the jade pendant seemed to carry a sacred power, illuminating the entire courtyard and the hope in everyone's hearts.
The Shadow Demon let out a painful roar, and his huge body trembled slightly.
This sudden attack was obviously beyond its expectations.
Xiaohong's actions also inspired everyone's fighting spirit.
They cheered up again and cooperated with Xiaohong to attack Shadow Demon again.
The man in white was like lightning, and he walked around behind the Shadow Demon, wielding a long sword in his hand, and the sword light flashed like a silver snake dancing wildly, constantly attacking the Shadow Demon's weakness.
Chapter completed!
