Master's Escape Plan

A rustling sound came from under the dead branches.

It was a sound that was easily reminiscent of something, like something crawling, or something chasing through dead branches all the way.

Either way, it's not a good thing.

Qin Shu pulled out Lingjun, exerted force with his wrist, and inserted the blade of the sword into the soil under his feet with a "shua".The spiritual power attached to the sword body quickly rushed to the tip of the sword that was deep into the soil, and finally burst out from the tip of the sword, rushing towards the thing crawling over from the soil.

With this spiritual power, Qin Shu could perceive the general outline of the thing, not the ghost hands that often appear in horror movies, but more like these dry branches on the ground, which would break at the touch of his spiritual power, but There will always be more layers to climb up behind.

Soon, there were rustling sounds not only in front of him, but also all around.

If this continues, sooner or later you will be surrounded.

Qin Shu frowned, he didn't mind using more spiritual power to get rid of these things in front of him, but he didn't know how many such things there were, if his spiritual power was exhausted, he wouldn't just sit and wait for death.

He pulled out Lingjun, injected spiritual power again, and stroked the land in front of him.In an instant, the flying clods fell to the side, and the soil turned up, revealing the things underneath.

It looks like a black bamboo branch, and the outer shell reflects the cold light under the faint starlight. The limbs are slender and still crawling. At first glance, it looks like countless layers of stick insects, and one of them has a white cloth strip wrapped around its body.

Regretting that he had pushed the soil away and saw these things, his eyes felt a little uncomfortable, Qin Shu sighed, and wanted to cover the soil back again.

The bugs seemed to know what he was thinking, or they were moving faster without the cover of the soil.Qin Shu's sword qi slashed over to kill a large number of people, but there are always a few fish that slip through the net, which makes people hard to guard against.

Qin Shu swung his sword while retreating towards the hut.

【"Host, if you fly up, maybe you can find a way out. That room is too gloomy, it's best not to go in."】

Baqi said in his head.

"I don't want to go back either, but Xie Linqing is gone." Qin Shu said.

【"Hey...then you can't go back, Baqi thinks that room is very wrong."】

"Just now there was a bug with his headband wrapped around him." Pushing back the bug on the left, Qin Shu pointed at it with the tip of his sword.

【"Ah! Then isn't he bad luck?"】

"Probably not...but I won't know if we wait any longer." The threat of the bugs was not too great, and he moved through them with ease, occasionally looking up and down, with cautious eyes.

This kind of bug should not be very poisonous. He paid attention to the color of the soil and the smell in the air, and even risked getting some dirt on his fingertips after repelling the bugs.Xie Linqing is a Jindan cultivator, so it is unlikely to be injured by these. When he turned around just now, there were no traces of fighting around, so there must be another reason for his disappearance.

Suddenly, thinking of something, Qin Shu's eyes flashed, and he put away Ling Jun with a sword flower.He took the initiative to walk to the bug who was wrapped in Xie Linqing's hairband, but was cut in two by him.

He squatted down and took off the hair tie, and took a closer look. The hair tie was not broken, and there was no blood.

【"Host! Bugs, bugs are coming!"】

A flustered voice sounded, Baqi was a little afraid of bugs, and nervously reminded Qin Shu.

"I know." Qin Shu didn't draw out his sword again, he stared at the bugs with fixed eyebrows, waiting for something.

The worms quickly crawled to his feet, the overwhelming black bamboo worms scrambled and overlapped each other densely, Baqi's heart would stop beating - if it had a heart.

An astonishing scene appeared. These insects did not climb onto Qin Shu's clothes, and did not even touch his clothes corners. Instead, they frantically gathered at Qin Shu's feet. The black limbs moved slightly, as if they were gnawing. More like... digging?

Qin Shu stood up, although he was mentally prepared, his scalp still felt a little numb seeing so many bugs piled up at his feet.

Holding Xie Linqing's hairband in his hand, he looked up at the dim stars.

At this moment, the crow crowed again.

Qin Shu's feet were empty, and he fell straight down.

The soil below is empty?

The wind howled and brushed past the pinnae, and just for a moment, I felt the ground again under my feet.

He staggered for a while, holding on to the scabbard, but at least he didn't fall.

Looking around, Qin Shu was stunned, the surroundings hadn't changed at all, it was still the same as it was before the fall, a few dead trees stood quietly in place, and the thatched hut was still behind, if it wasn't for the soil on the scabbard and some insect residue Limbs, the fall just now was like an illusion.

Not far away, a tall woman in a white robe turned her back to him, gesticulating something with a sword in her hand.

She didn't seem to hear the sound of someone falling. It was really strange that a woman in white clothes appeared at this time. Qin Shu quietly looked at her back for a few seconds, and saw something from the hilt of the sword, uncertainly. He said, "Xie Linqing, is that you?"

The woman didn't respond to him, so Qin Shu took two steps closer and could see more clearly, this is the exercise uniform that Xie Linqing was wearing today, but because of the loose hair, at first glance she looked like a woman from behind.

"Xie Linqing?" Qin Shu patted him on the shoulder with the scabbard from a distance, ready to turn around and kill him.

When the scabbard just touched his shoulder, Xie Linqing noticed it, and quickly dodged to avoid it. At the same time, he took out the scabbard in his hand and placed it between the two of them, blocking Qin Shu's Cambridge.

The two looked at each other, both stunned.

Qin Shu thought that he didn't follow the script. It is reasonable to say that every ten times he patted the shoulder and turned around was a grimace, and then he fought it for dozens of rounds with his strong psychological quality and outstanding cultivation, and finally succeeded. Break through the illusion to rescue Xie Linqing, and firmly establish the character of the super strong Sanxian.

Xie Linqing's face was covered with some mud, there was no reason for the hair tie, and the thin and soft forehead hair hung down from both sides of the cheeks, making him appear more delicate than usual.

Seeing that it was Qin Shu, he withdrew Tong Guang with guilt, and asked, "Master, I didn't hurt you, did I?"

How could he be hurt even without the sword energy coming out?Qin Shu shook his head, reached out and wiped the mud off his face: "How did you do it?"

As if he had never been in close contact with someone like this before, Xie Linqing's body stiffened for a moment, and then he returned to normal: "The disciple was originally following behind the master, who would have thought that his feet would be empty, and the disciple called for the master, but the master seemed to have never heard it. After falling, The disciple is here, how did the master come down?"

Qin Shu shook the headband on his hand, pursed his lips and said, "I called you from behind just now, but you didn't seem to hear it either. This place may block the sound."

After receiving the headband, Xie Linqing didn't use it to tie it up again. He lowered his eyes and said cautiously: "The disciple was trying to set up the formation earlier, and it seems that there are restrictions."

"In this case..." Qin Shu thought for two seconds, then took back the hair tie, tied one end on his own wrist and the other on Xie Linqing's wrist: "In this way, no matter what happens later, as a teacher, I can Discovered in time."

Unexpectedly, being tied together, Xie Linqing showed no expression, and struggled lightly. Qin Shu was tied very firmly, and could not break free at will. He nodded slightly and said, "That's fine, the master can't do without the disciple."

The word "inseparable" was used a bit strangely, Qin Shu glanced at him.

Xie Linqing didn't say anything else, just took Tong Guang back into the scabbard, and quietly thought of a way out.Withdrawing his thoughts, Qin Shu was also thinking of a way to get out, the fall just now was too weird, like falling from one space to another, even the scene was exactly the same, it was hard not to let people worry about it.

He thought of Ba Qi's previous proposal, his heart moved, and he said to Xie Linqing: "Fly up with me and have a look."

The two jumped onto Lingjun and flew into the air.

With the hut as the center, there are dead branches and thorns in all directions. Apart from the dead branches, there is also a large piece of night fog, which makes it difficult to see further.A few dead trees stand far and near, arranged as if with some mystery.

After watching for a long time, those trees seemed to have life, the black branches suddenly grew longer, and countless ghostly hands intertwined, attacking the two of them.
