Sealing Sword

A gust of wind blew up from the ground, and when I opened my eyes again, my eyes were filled with gray colors.

Like lead clouds, covering the sky with mist, the vast Xiling dense forest suddenly became invisible. A small battlefield.

The accident makes the aliens feel uneasy, but the hunters hiding in the dark are handy.

This fog is not God's help, but from the handwriting of Daoist Duan Heng.At that time, Xiao Yangu pretended to be Xuansu and went to Sunset Cliff to deceive them. Fortunately, Duanqing arrived in time. Although he failed to prevent the kerosene trap from detonating in advance, he saved Duanheng, Xiezi, Zhang Ziao and others.

Seeing a group of vanguard troops breaking through the falling rocks and rushing into the front mountain, Duan Qing didn't let them chase after them, but took advantage of the opportunity of "Wolf King" Kaino and others to wade across the river, and surrounded them from the cliffs on both sides. Unknowingly hiding in the Xiling Mountain Forest.

This piece of forest covers the sky and blocks out the sun, with luxuriant vegetation and a lot of earth and rocks, it is a unique place of confusion.Duanheng and the others were few in number, and since they lost the oil trap level, confronting Kaino head-on would be like hitting a stone with an egg, so they quickly changed into a battle formation, taking advantage of Duan Qing's appearance to attract Kaino's attention, they Assigned people to set up formation traps in the mountains and forests.

Duan Heng has been studying formations since he was young, and now he has turned decay into magic. Even if a few ordinary stones fall into his hands, he can create the most ingenious formations, let alone in the In this dense forest full of miasma and shadows?

The only variable is how much time Duanqing can delay for them.

Fighting against thousands of troops with one person's strength, at this time, it is not the heroism that knows that there is nothing to be done, but the court of death beyond one's own strength.

However, Duan Heng has always trusted Duan Qing and never questioned it. As an old man in the Buried Soul Palace who has undergone two generations of palace lord changes, Xiezi naturally knows the old people well, so it is rare that he did not raise any objections. The group entered the forest as promised, while Duanqing flew down the precarious sunset cliff and landed in front of Kaino.

Kaino was startled at first, the blade in his hand was out of the sheath, and the soldiers behind him pointed their swords at the same time, but after seeing the person who came, he withdrew his killing intent.

For this operation, Duanqing had already changed out of his Taoist robes, and was wearing a light gown that was the same as Helian Yu's before. He also carried an ancient sword on his back. His body shape was also similar to that of Helian Yu's, but his demeanor was well disguised.What's more, He Lianyu has been wearing a silver mask all year round to hide his true face, and few people dare to look closely at others who are intimidated by his aura. Although Duan Qing was a little bit embarrassed by the battle of Du'e Cave this time, the remaining blood on his body lingered Not to be scattered, after putting on a mask again, it is even more confusing than before.

Chu Xiwei had almost been cheated before, let alone Kaino who was appointed temporarily?

However, as a leader, he must act cautiously and not trust others. Although Kaino stopped his soldiers, he did not recklessly step forward, his eyes full of scrutiny: "Master Helian...you shouldn't be here. "

Before the words fell, the horse under its feet suddenly knelt forward, accompanied by blood splatter and the exclamation of the soldiers behind it-the two front legs of the horse were cut off by a sword without a sound!

Although Kaino was on guard, he didn't expect the opponent to attack suddenly, and he didn't see exactly when he made the sword!

Surprised, Kaino was not in a mess, and turned over on the ground with one hand, but just as he got up, two cold fingers pressed on his eyelids, seemingly light as nothing, but with great force But it seems to want to pick out the eyeballs alive!

"No one can look down on me from above, let alone judge me..." Duanqing's cold voice came out from behind the mask, and it was rare to see a creepy smile, even though the face under the mask even There is not even a hooked lip, and it is still as calm as a mountain ice wall.

He pressed Kaino's eyes with his fingers, and tilted his head slightly: "Did you not be taught by the master before you came out?"

Kaino's eyes hurt, but he couldn't blink. A chill ran through his back. The soldiers surrounded him, but he waved him off.

He only met He Lianyu once, and the other party was dressed exactly like this, and now he can't see the slightest mistake, but the dress can be imitated, but the momentum and martial arts are difficult.

Kaino's impression of Helian Yu was quite deep.

That was a month ago, he and another "Wolf King" accompanied General Sa Luoyan to sneak into the Central Plains secretly, and met with this partner in Mizong Ridge.

Sa Luoyan warned: "Helian Yu is a moody lunatic, you must not provoke him, otherwise I will not be able to save your lives."

He looked up to the general, but the other one was arrogant and careless. When he saw Helian Yu, he looked at him so carefully, with some indifferent contempt. The next moment, his eyes were gouged out alive.

Kaino remembered the ghostly movement and the deadly finger moves, and even more remembered the sound of the moiré satin boots stomping on the eyeballs.

There will never be another such a ghost-like lunatic in the world.

"Yes, I was reckless. I thought someone was pretending, and I asked Palace Master Helian to forgive me." Kai Nuo felt unwilling, but had to bow his head. General Sa Luoyan attached great importance to this operation. If something important happens, the consequences are unimaginable. "The general's order is of great importance. I was a little too nervous. I despised the palace lord for a while, so it's not an example."

Those two icy fingers were withdrawn abruptly, and Duan Qing hung his hand at his side, and then he answered his previous words: "I am here, of course because something happened."

Kaino looked at the unrecognizable Sunset Cliff, and his expression was also ugly: "What happened?"

"There is a traitor under my command, and the front mountain is already in chaos." Duanqing said coldly, "Bu Xueyao... I thought the 'Hateful Gu' could calm him down, but it's a pity that he didn't know how to repent, and even set off signal fireworks privately, If I hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid there would be more than a few corpses under this pile of rocks."

The hunting army and the Palace of Buried Souls made an appointment in advance to use fireworks as a guide. Therefore, after Bu Xueyao sent out the signal, Kaino would lead people out of Lindu River, but he didn't expect to be intercepted and killed, and there were even firecrackers. The Sunset Cliff was fried, and if he hadn't ordered decisively to let the vanguard rush out and lead other people to disperse to the left and right to avoid falling rocks by the surrounding mountains, the casualties would have been very heavy.

Kaino had already held back his anger over this matter, but now that he heard "Helian Yu" say this, he naturally pushed the matter to Bu Xueyao, and hurriedly asked, "What happened to the traitor?"

"Since I'm here, can they still live?" Duanqing glanced at him, and Kaino felt that the eyes exposed outside the mask were like two bottomless dry wells, and his scalp began to tingle for a while.

"Now that the front mountain has changed and the road is blocked again, what should we do?" Kaino was a little troubled, "Although I asked the vanguard to take the poisonous man out, but these alone may not hurt the root cause, Palace Master... ..."

"Since it's already messed up, I'm going to stir up the water even more. You first try to dig the mountain road, otherwise the soldiers and horses will not come. Even if I have the means to reach the sky, I will be powerless." After a pause, Duan Qing said coldly, "The more The sooner the better."

"Yes!"

"..."

This delay, the action has already started in the forest.

Duan Heng set up an formation, and two assassins, Xie Zi and Zhang Ziao, set up an ambush to add to the cake. When Kai Nuo and others faced "Helian Yu", they didn't expect that the retreat behind them across the water was already closed. became a trap.

Duanqing was well aware of the truth of "the more you say, the more you make mistakes", and when he felt that it was almost the same, he asked Kaino to blow the trumpet to summon the soldiers, and also alerted Duanheng and others in the forest on the other side, and he justifiably Get away, use lightness kung fu all the way, quickly go to the front mountain to join Chu Xiwei and others, just in time for the bloody battle in the forest.

Now that Helian Yu was abolished, Zhao Bing'e handed over the "Longevity Gu" and left with Xifo Sekong, asking if there is a solution to the danger of Chan Mountain, but everyone did not breathe a sigh of relief.

The hunting army is still like a thorn in the back of the mountain, and the ambitions of alien wolves have emerged. If they are not dealt with, not to mention that everyone is still in danger, and they will even harm the surroundings and endanger the border.

Seeing that the abbot returned to the temple, with this venerable old abbot, it was like a backbone had finally returned to his place. Sun Mifeng took some people who knew how to distort the yellow to rush to make antidotes to poison and treat the wounded, preparing to rescue the coming Refugees, control the scourge of Gu poison, and the rest of the people gathered together to start an emergency discussion.

In the end, Chu Xiwei made a final decision - they went their separate ways, taking care of both ends.

Yu Sanniang sent people to set up an array to temporarily stop the victims of poisoning. Xuansu, Hengyuan, and Xue Chanyi took the opportunity to take the wounded and underpowered juniors from Nanshan Road to Jialan City. Hurry to Jialan City to stabilize the back road. If Wenchan Mountain falls, you must also ensure that Jialan City can go;

Yingxiu's heart is on the border, and dozens of people who are available leave Wenchan Mountain from Nanshan Road, rushing to Yanming City by water, and the remaining Anyu people are divided into two groups. Guan Shoushan, along the way, was temporarily merged into Chu Xiwei's subordinates at his disposal.

After a series of changes, scattered sand gathered, and the crowd rushed to Sunset Cliff. Duan Qing pretended to be "Helian Yu" as a bait, leading An Yu's subordinates who pretended to be assassins in the Palace of Burying Souls to retreat here in a pretense of defeat. Merging in danger, the two sides fought against the enemy head-on, Chu Xiwei took the opportunity to lead a hundred ghosts to outflank the cliff, dive underwater, and spread the underwater rope net secret technique of "water ghosts eating people" in the cave, waiting for the Baidao people to force them to attack with all their strength. Withdrew the hunting army, Duan Qing and fought and retreated to deliberately lead them back to the long river, then gathered the nets, "water ghosts" showed their fangs, dragged people into the water, and the long river was full of blood.

Kaino suffered a loss, and only then did he realize that "Helian Yu" was fake, and his incident was exposed, so he decided to avoid it temporarily and retreated the same way, but when they returned to the Xiling mountain forest, Duanheng and others who had been hiding for a long time came Start the array.

The mist covered people's eyes and ears, and they couldn't find their way at all for a while. The Hundred Ghosts who had been living in the "Forest of the Dead" for a long time were like ducks in water. assemble.

It seemed that she had the upper hand, but Chu Xiwei knew it was only temporary.

As the "Wolf King", Kaino's abilities are extraordinary, but a momentary miss doesn't mean he can't come back, not to mention the firearms, just waiting for him to regain his senses and rearrange his troops may turn the situation around.

The news that Yingxiu brought made him terrified, and the fact that Ye Fusheng went to the border for him to bear the heavy pressure made Chu Xiwei even more anxious, but the more anxious he was, the more calm and ruthless he became.

Ye Fusheng went to the border as "Chu Yao", so he had better not reveal his identity, he can't go straight to Yanming City like Yingxiu, he can only follow a dark line.

Chu Xiwei decided to use his own way to deal with him - to leave this alien hunting army in Xiling forever, and then take the "ghost crying stream" instead. Although the natural moat is dangerous, it is the shortest path. He rushed there as fast as he could, and he was able to go around the pass to cooperate with Yanming City and Ye Fusheng's actions.

"Although your method is good, if you have the right timing, you can form a surprise army, but if you make a mistake, you will end up becoming a lone wolf in the enemy's rear and being bitten and suppressed."

Yingxiu was startled by his decision, but Chu Xiwei never doubted whether Ye Fusheng could create such an opportunity.

Chu Xiwei said, "He has always been cautious, and I'm not someone who just sits and waits for death."

Ying Xiu was almost laughed angrily by the master and apprentice: "He can count, you can fight, but you can count with all your heart, beat God?"

Chu Xiwei was silent for a moment, looked up at Ying Xiu's eyes, and said word by word: "I don't believe in heaven, I believe in him."

To doubt a person may be a momentary thing;

Trusting a person can be a lifetime decision.

Even if there was a betrayal, even if there was wind and rain, some people still have their original intentions, and some things will never change.

Don't believe in the eternal affairs of the family and the country, and don't count the eternal history.I ask you what your heart is like, but there is no change in victory.

Although people are not as good as heaven, Chu Xiwei now has no choice but to gamble that man will win against heaven, even if God dooms misfortune, he must make a living out of death.

So right now, he can only make a quick decision without any chance of delay.

The strength of an army lies in its concerted efforts; the strength of its morale lies in its leadership.

Chu Xiwei confronted Kaino personally.

Kaino is a master of archery. In addition to quick eyesight and quick hands, his hearing and intuition are far superior to ordinary people. Even in this foggy forest, he can shoot through Yang with his eyes closed. In a short time, he has killed and wounded hundreds of ghosts. Even Scorpion himself went into battle to prepare The sneak attack was also discovered when he was within ten feet of him. The sharp arrow pierced through the flesh and blood on the shoulder, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling.

Chu Xiwei could see clearly that there were still 24 arrows in Kaino's quiver, but the opponent's strikes were too accurate, and his horsemanship and sword skills were not weak, which caused a great hindrance to the maze.

It was discovered that Scorpion was not defeated by his movement, but by his murderous aura.

The alien "wolf kings" who have been hunting and fighting outside the customs for a long time are all warriors who have experienced many battles in the tribe. They fight with people and beasts, and their sense of murder is not weaker than that of martial arts masters who have been in the rivers and lakes for decades. , even sharper.

His eyes darkened, and the Jinghong knife was silently turned in his hand, the cold light seemed to dim in an instant, turning into a dark shadow along with him.

Chu Xiwei raised her feet and stepped on the tree trunk, and stepped on it as if walking on flat ground. She lightly tapped on the branches of the treetops, and the leaves did not move, but the person had already lightly landed on the big tree behind Kaino.

He held his breath, suppressed the breath of his whole body to the minimum, and his whole body became one with the tree, his feet hooked on a twig as thick as a finger, and his body hung upside down, less than a foot away from the top of Kaino's head.

Breathing turned into internal breath, and heartbeat and pulse were disturbed by internal force. Chu Xiwei had no murderous intent in her eyes, and naturally there was no murderous intent on her body, but Kaino still sensed something, and had already grasped the long knife at his waist with one hand.

At this moment, Zhang Ziao bullied himself and approached, with a strong murderous aura and a flash of cold light, he rushed towards him. Kaino abandoned his sword and drew his bow without hesitation. overlap together.

One was the sound of an arrow piercing through Zhang Ziao's abdomen, and the other was the sound of a blade cutting through his flesh and blood.

The moment Kaino let go of the bowstring, the Jinghong Dao had already been wiped across his neck, and he felt a coldness in his throat, and the cold wind blowing away the mist around him, he was forced to look up and saw a pair of dark and cold eyes above his head. Shen eyes.

The pupils dilated and suddenly slackened, and there was a strange "clack" sound in the throat, and before the words were spoken, he died of exhaustion.

The decapitated body fell down, and the horse neighed upwards, but was firmly held by one foot and could not move. Chu Xiwei turned over and landed on the horse's back with Kaino's head in his left hand, put the knife in the sheath with his right hand, and blew a whistle .

The whistle pierced the air sharply, piercingly piercing and hurting, and the dark place was calm and understanding, and the people moved away from the formation, and the strong wind blew into the forest to disperse the fog. Only then did the hunting army trapped here realize that there were corpses all over the ground around them. The familiar horse in the middle of the field An unknown Central Plains man was sitting on his horse, but he was holding Kaino's head in his hand.

All of a sudden, exclamations and howls came and went, the hunting army was terrified, and the Baidao people were in high spirits. With a cold smile on the corner of Chu Xiwei's mouth, he gestured to all the assassins who were lurking again, and said word by word: " Those who surrender will not be killed, and those who commit crimes will not be left behind!"

"Hero Ye Gao Yi!"

"it is good!"

"kill!"

"..."

In an instant, the sound of killing reappeared in the forest, and the white knights who took back the main road of the Changhe also came to the forest to help. Chu Xiwei threw Kayinuo's head to Duan Heng, but she took off the opponent's quiver and armor, with a gloomy expression on her face. Sunny and uncertain.

With the addition of Bai Dao's combat power, the assassin took the opportunity to escape from the muddy water and hide in the dense forest, quietly and without leaving any traces.

Duanqing walked to Chu Xiwei, saw him looking at the armor in his hand, and said, "You want to lead people to pretend to be this hunting army, and go straight out of the pass from the 'Ghost Crying Stream'?"

"The Taoist thinks this is reckless?"

"Indeed, but it's not inadvisable to act urgently." Duanqing reached into his bosom and took out two things and handed them over. Chu Xiwei took a closer look, one was the bone whistle that Hengyuan tricked from Bu Xueyao, and the other But it was a golden token that he had never seen before.

This time he fought He Lianyu twice in a row, using his own "Wuji Kungfu" to seal the opponent's "Thousand Tribulation Kungfu" internal strength, and he was seriously injured. It would not help to go outside the customs with Chu Xiwei and the others, it would be better to stay and help All the people sat in the town to ask Zen Mountain, and at the same time guarded He Lianyu.

Chu Xiwei had expected these arrangements long ago, but she did not expect Duan Qing to explain to him.

"Since the foreign races outside the pass conspired with the Burying Soul Palace, and Bu Xueyao was able to summon the hunting army with signal fireworks, it can be seen that they have cooperated a lot with each other. There may be people from the Burial Soul Palace guarding the 'Ghost Crying Stream'. This bone whistle should be useful." After a pause, Duanqing handed the token in his palm to Chu Xiwei, "As for this token, if you get trapped in the enemy camp outside the pass, don't rush to Yanming City , turn around and go to 'Jiuyao City', the city lord there will give you convenience when he sees this thing."

Jiuyao City is one of the three major cities in the Western Regions. It is not far from the foreign military camps outside the pass. You have to bow your head before him.

Duanqing has lived in the Central Plains for a long time, and is a Taoist priest who hides from the world, how could he get involved with such a person?

Surprised, Chu Xiwei looked at the token in her hand, which was shaped like a hexagon, with a entrenched Hydra engraved on the front, but a bust of a woman engraved on the back.This thing should be old for a long time, even if it is well preserved, the notches have changed from clear to blurred, only the two rice-grain-sized rubies inlaid in the eyes are as dazzling as before.

His pupils shrank. Although he didn't recognize the woman, he associated the hydra sculpture with the five-headed snake statue on the token of the foreign race outside the pass. Except for the wrong number of heads, the other parts were almost all carved out of the same mold.

"This is……"

"That's all I can help you with." Duanqing withdrew his hand, his face still calm, "The road ahead is difficult and dangerous, so be careful and cherish it."

Chu Xiwei tightened her five fingers, and solemnly put away the bone whistle and token. Looking at the back of Duanqing turning around with the sword in hand and the still shocking left arm, she suddenly didn't know what to say.

Even with Ye Fusheng's face on his face, he couldn't imitate that person's rhetoric, and he couldn't pretend to be cute. For a moment, he felt like a gnat in his throat, and seeing that Duanqing was about to go far, he managed to utter a sentence: "Master Dao, When things are over here, can you take me and him to visit Senior Gu?"

Duanqing paused and turned his head: "Many hidden dangers are still there, so is it necessary to make a hasty decision?"

"Danger is to be faced, not to be afraid of the unknown and stop. Regardless of hidden dangers or troubles, we must bear the decision..." At this point, Chu Xiwei added, "We are together."

At that moment, he didn't know if it was because Chu Xiwei's eyes were dazzled, but he saw the corner of Duanqing's mouth hooked slightly, the arc was very small and then fell back quickly, as fast as a frightening dream that disappeared in a flash.

The white-haired priest stepped forward, leaving only one word: "Okay."
