"Fifth brother?!" She was horrified to see her fifth brother Pei Jing lying on a mossy stone, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

Even though the light was not bright, one could feel that there was no color on his face.

The fifth brother had been raising the bird from an egg. Now the bird, which was taller than a human, had its head and body separated and lay on the side with its eyes open in death.

Over there, an elderly man had an arrow with tail feathers stuck in his chest.

This is Fifth Brother’s master, Weng Chong.

Pei Chun's breathing stagnated.

"Fifth brother! Master!" Over there, the second brother Pei Cui had already rushed like a gust of wind and first fed a black pill to the fifth brother who was closest to him at the door.

He took out another pill and stuffed it into the mouth of Weng Chong, who had gray hair and was also ignorant of the danger.

Seeing this, Pei Chun, with the help of Gu Yuan, helped his fifth brother swallow the black pill in his mouth.

She turned around and helped her second brother feed the pills to the miracle doctor Weng.

The situation in the cave is too tragic...

She took a deep breath and checked with Gu Yuan to see if Fifth Brother had any sprained bones.

"Well……"

Perhaps the medicine prescribed by the second brother Pei Cui was very effective. Just when Pei Chun accidentally touched the wound on the fifth brother's shoulder.

Fifth brother Pei Jing, who had been in a coma, suddenly woke up from the pain. He opened his eyes suddenly and looked highly alert.

After a while, he realized it was his sister's face and heaved a sigh of relief.

Half sitting up with Pei Chun's help, he slowed down the chaotic internal energy in his body and spoke with difficulty: "Mingcheng, go, go save Li Shenzhi!"

"What's going on!" Pei Chun anxiously grasped the sword, and veins on his arms bulged unconsciously.

Without caring about anything else, he stuffed Qingyan into his fifth brother's arms and pulled Gu Yuan towards the place where the sound of water came from in the distance.

Along the way, Pei Chun kept thinking about what his fifth brother had just said in a halting and laborious manner.

The fifth brother said, "In order to lure away the people sent by the Sixth Prince, Li Shenzhi sent us here and led the group away himself."

Just last night, Li Shenzhi had already escaped back in disguise.

But just before they were about to go up the mountain, a sick child from the village below the mountain was carried to the foot of the mountain.

The baby developed a high fever, had convulsions in his sleep, and cried incessantly.

Li Shenzhi looked at the baby whose face was already red from the fever and who was about to go crazy.

With a compassionate heart as a doctor, he stopped without hesitation, put the medicine box in his hand on the ground, and was about to give the baby an injection.

But the baby's parents didn't dare to believe a strange doctor and wanted to hide away with the child in their arms. Li Shenzhi had no choice but to tear off his disguise and speak to prove his identity.

Finally the baby was rescued.

A group of people followed behind Li Shenzhi.

By the time he realized something was wrong, it was too late. He was only ten steps away from the cabin on the mountainside.

Inside the house, his master was still happy that his disciple had returned, but the large number of people made him realize that something was wrong.

Weng Chong was just about to remind Li Shenzhi at the door when a fatal arrow came towards him...

The fifth brother also said: "When I saw the injured master and disciple, they were fleeing and hiding in the mountains. Fortunately, Xiaoqing found this small cave.

There are more than fifty assassins sent by the Sixth Prince."

The incident happened during the daytime the day before. The master and the disciple fled in the mountains for the whole day, dragging their injured bodies.

When the fifth brother met the master and his disciple, they were already exhausted and had used up all the medicine and poison powder on them.

So the fifth brother let his most precious big bird take the master and his apprentice down the mountain, but the enemy soon caught up with them.

The fifth brother had no choice but to fight with the killer, but the number of enemies was too large and the fifth brother Pei Jing was also injured.

Even his beloved pet bird fell into the hands of the enemy.

Blood gushed out and the head and body were separated.

The fifth brother finally said: "The direction in which Li Shenzhi attracted the killer was the cliff."

cliff……

Pei Chun knew very well what the cliff meant.

This means that Li Shenzhi was using his own life to attract the enemy's attention.

Pei Chun followed the direction pointed by his fifth brother and walked quickly towards the direction of the gurgling water.

But I don't know why, the ominous premonition in my heart became stronger and stronger along the way, and my heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it would jump out of my throat.

This feeling... is very similar to the feeling I had when my mother died in my previous life...

She stretched out her hand, stroked her chest, and took a deep breath. Seeing Gu Yuan's worried look, her expression became more determined.

No, that's impossible. Didn't Li Shenzhi just avenge his mother?

Didn’t you just meet the master?

Pei Chun's pace silently quickened, and he almost flew with Gu Yuan.

After a while, she saw spots of blood on the yellow soil near the open cliff.

Her eyes lit up and she suddenly followed the direction of the bloodstain.

The temperature gradually rises under the sunshine, and the air is filled with summer heat, making people feel so hot that they want to crawl into the ground.

After she chased for another hour, more and more blood fell on the ground.

When Pei Chun passed by a huge rock, he even saw an arm dressed in pearly white clothes.

She took a quick glance and thought that it must be the group of assassins under the Sixth Prince, wearing clothes of this color!

Along the way, Pei Chun could see these pearly white pieces of clothing, accompanied by an increasingly strong smell of blood.

She...seemed to understand something.

Pei Chun's hand holding the sword had turned blue. She did not dare to stop for a moment. With tears in her eyes, she held Gu Yuan and rushed forward on the short green grass.

Along the way, Pei Chun discovered traces of two arms and a half-bloody leg.

Now she could no longer deceive herself. It was obvious that the group of assassins under the Sixth Prince were playing like a cat playing with a mouse.

Always teasing Li Shenzhi.

Don't give him a happy ending.

Maybe, now the person only has broken legs and arms, Pei Chun told himself.

After all, if that group of people wanted to play around, they would definitely not give Li Shenzhi a good death. Maybe Li Shenzhi is still alive now?

When he reached the edge of the cliff, Pei Chun slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

No, nothing.

There were no corpses, broken limbs, or bloodstains as expected.

He must still be alive!

The weather gradually became gloomy.

She quickened her pace and took two steps forward, stretching her neck tentatively to look down the cliff with a look of great luck.

Cautiously, I looked to see if there was any blood on the rocks below.

Half of his body was leaning out.

After a while, she stopped lying on the edge of the cliff, and the curve at the corners of her mouth, which had originally relaxed, tightened again.

She stared at the crooked old tree below without blinking.

On the cliff below, a withered old tree was holding up a person dressed in pearly white clothes.

A person without legs, feet, and... a head.

Pei Chun didn't know how he managed to stand up with Gu Yuan's support.

All she knew was that her fists were clattering.

The wind around was getting stronger and stronger, and the weather was getting gloomier.

She stood up and followed the bright butterfly that had arrived late from Gu Yuan, gritting her teeth as she headed towards the east side of the mountain.

Li Shenzhi, there is still a head.

Where did his bearded head go?
