Chapter 100 Queen
"Brother, why is there thunder when the starry sky is so clear?" In front of the old mountain temple, the Zhang brothers looked up at the sky in surprise. Zhang Chun opened his folding fan and there was a trace of blood on Zhang Yuan's sword. In front of them, the old witch who was tied up into a ball had her head and body separated.
When the two men discovered this old temple and the old witch, in order to prevent what happened to the middle-aged monk from happening again, they launched a sneak attack directly outside the temple.
Zhang Chun used flying needles to pierce the major acupoints on the old witch's body, and Zhang Yuan followed closely behind and beheaded her with a sword, giving the old witch no chance to react.
The two men mistakenly thought that the old witch was also one of the competitors in the treasure hunt in the mountains. Even though she had no spiritual power, they would kill her first.
It has to be said that the Zhang brothers' ruthlessness can be considered a good thing to a certain extent. The old witch deserves to die for aiding and abetting the evil. Moreover, if she is not killed just now, once the pollen disperses after the thunder, she will turn into a bloodthirsty monster again.
"What's that smell?" Zhang Chun did not answer his brother, or he could not answer, but he smelled a faint floral scent, and then he felt dizzy, and a murderous intent surged in his heart.
"Brother, be careful!" Although Zhang Yuan's cultivation level was relatively low, after the thunder just now, the spiritual power of the entire Jiufeng Mountain began to surge. With his divine eyes, he immediately found something wrong. Before the fragrance of the flowers wafted over, he immediately covered his body with spiritual power to prevent accidents, and accidentally escaped the disaster.
However, he had just opened his mouth to remind him when Zhang Chun was hit. A few breaths later, he stared at Zhang Yuan with bloodshot eyes, closed the folding fan in his hand, and veins on his palms bulged.
Zhang Yuan grew up in a large family, and the family was a branch that was not very popular. He had experienced the intrigues everywhere, and reading people's expressions had become his instinct. When he saw Zhang Chun's appearance, although he didn't know what had happened, Zhang Yuan turned around and ran away. With his current skills, he could not beat Zhang Chun.
A roar sounded from behind, Zhang Chun kicked the ground and rushed towards Zhang Yuan's back. The two brothers chased each other quickly in the dense forest.
"The mountain god is coming!" Black Deer looked towards the source of the roar. The roars came one after another, and it sounded like there were at least twenty or thirty sources.
"Those villagers, have all turned into monsters?" Zhao Yushu frowned. This kind of mutation could not be without sequelae. Ordinary people suddenly had such tremendous power. If they could use it without restriction, the mountain god would have unified the world long ago. Even the inner scene could not withstand the life-and-death siege of thousands of outer scenes.
Lan Ling obviously thought of this as well, and sighed slightly: "I'm afraid that the villagers in more than one village seem to know that we are going to kill him."
Black Deer pointed at himself and said, "I killed him, and he knew it."
Zhao Yushu understood that there was a special connection between the black deer and the mountain god. Although the mountain god did not know where the black deer was, he knew that the black deer wanted to kill him. These alienated villagers would probably not go around the mountains looking for people at this time, but would guard the road that must be passed to the mountain god's residence.
In other words, this was not a sneak attack, but a head-on battle.
Haha, this group of three people, two from the triple heaven and one from the second heaven, actually wanted to head-on kill a patron saint appointed by the founding emperor. How audacious!
No, this is not called courage, this is called recklessness.
Fortunately, I am not bald and my last name is not Meng, otherwise people would call me Mang Jin Gang.
"Brother Zhao, it's probably not wise to face the enemy head-on. With our means, we might be surrounded and killed before we even see the mountain god." The three of them shuttled through the dense forest, and Lan Ling looked worried.
"You go first, I will try to hold them back. I have practiced a special footwork. Once you are far away, they won't be able to stop me." Zhao Yushu gave the plan without hesitation.
Lan Ling shook her head: "The Black Deer sword is the key to killing the mountain god. Although he promised you to kill it, he probably won't give it to you without seeing the mountain god, so you can't take the risk."
Zhao Yushu glanced at Lan Ling and said, "From the perspective of my skills, I am more confident in getting away than you."
Lan Ling smiled slightly: "From a safety point of view, I am more suitable than you to be the rear guard."
Zhao Yushu shook his head firmly: "We won't gamble with our lives."
"what?"
"Captain America's lines, you don't need to care who Captain America is, I just said it casually, your mission is to save the child, killing the mountain god is my selfish desire, if I need you to sacrifice your life to satisfy my selfish desire, then we can turn around and go back now."
Lan Ling rolled her eyes and said, "I have the final say on my mission, and I may not die."
"That's right, but I will definitely not die. I have the aura of a protagonist. Okay, stop arguing. If you want to go together, just listen to me."
Lao Zhao put an end to the dispute. The black deer in front listened to their argument and turned back after a long while: "Let's do it together."
Old Zhao snorted, "Your brain isn't working well, so don't get involved in giving advice."
Black Deer's eyes widened immediately and he wanted to fight back, but after a moment's hesitation he murmured, "I'm smart."
Zhao Yushu and Lan Ling laughed but didn't say anything. The roar was getting closer.
The starry sky was bright, but without moonlight, the entire forest appeared hazy and gray. Deep in the dense forest, pairs of blood-red eyes slowly emerged.
"You two hide for now and leave me marks along the way." Zhao Yushu did not draw his weapon. His purpose was not to fight, but to lead people away.
Lan Ling waved her hand, and a piece of ice crystals shining with a faint blue light suddenly appeared on a big tree: "Brother Zhao, just follow these ice crystals."
Zhao Yushu nodded, his figure flashed, and he rushed into the blood light, leaving behind a trail of afterimages. Suddenly, the blood light became a mess, and roars came one after another.
"Let's go!" Lan Ling didn't want to waste the brief opportunity that Zhao Yushu had risked his life to buy, so she immediately turned around and rushed forward with the black deer.
Old Zhao felt that he was a bit too arrogant just now.
He thought that he could easily manipulate a group of mindless muscular brothers with just a glimpse of them, but he underestimated how terrifying the speed and reaction ability of the body-refining cultivators of the second level could be.
It might be easy to deal with one or two, but when more than ten or twenty of them surrounded him like a pack of wolves, Zhao Yushu was in danger almost every moment. If it weren't for the bug of Shadow Step that allowed him to stop time and save his life at the critical moment, he would have been torn to pieces by now.
Not only did he have to hold these people back, he also had to lead them away slowly, so that after he ran away they would not be able to return to the mountain god's aid in time.
Faced with such a major task and a difficult situation, Zhao Yushu felt that his spiritual power and mind were being consumed rapidly. After getting rid of the attack of the two hunters again, Lao Zhao once again activated the Shadow Step and instantly appeared ten feet away. Then he ran in a straight line without looking back. Behind him, a group of mutated villagers followed closely, roaring, and got farther and farther away from the direction of the mountain god's residence.
