"Fortunately, I have four points of defense now. Even if the general sharp weapon is weak, it can't hurt me." Seeing the other party disappearing into the darkness, his movements are so fast that he can never catch up, Lin Xin's face is also cloudy.
Since he was attacked in the shower last time, he has found that his body skin has become more and more tough. After careful comparison, he concluded that the surface defense of his skin is almost the same as that of those external kung fu masters who practice hard qigong. It is equivalent to having an extra layer of iron cloth shirt with a golden bell cover for no reason. These four defensive attributes brought him a layer of security like leather armor.
"Don't be careless, it seems that there may be something disguised as someone else here."
He regained his composure and hurried towards the direction where the screams came from.
Turning east and west all the way, we soon came to a wide flat ground on the left side of the square.
The torches fell horizontally on the ground, still burning slowly. There was still a pool of blood on the ground, but there was no sign of anyone.
Soon there was another sound of footsteps, Senior Brother Guang walked out of the darkness with a pale complexion, holding an extinguished torch in his hand.
Seeing Lin Xin who was inspecting the scene, his eyes were filled with joy.
"Brother Lin, have you seen Junior Sister Xiao and the others!?"
Lin Xin turned his head and looked at him carefully.
"What happened to you just now?"
Suddenly he saw Senior Brother Guang's eyes startled, looking straight behind him, as if he saw something extremely frightening.
Lin Xin suddenly turned his head and looked behind him.
laugh!
A sharp piercing sound sounded.
clang!
Lin Xin's backhand was a sword, as expected, it just blocked the blade of Brother Guang's sudden thrust.
"Cheat me?" He turned his head and looked at Senior Brother Guang who was stunned. The two swords crossed and stood in front of them.
The corner of Senior Brother Guang's mouth curled up in a strange way, and he kicked his legs fiercely towards Lin Xin.
In an instant, two gusts of hot air slammed into him from both sides.
puff.
Brother Guang's whole body collapsed and disintegrated like a puff of illusory smoke, and slowly disappeared into the darkness.
Everything was quiet again.
Lin Xin looked vigilant, looked around, and slowly retracted the sword into its sheath.
"It's just equivalent to the explosive power of the second-level Xiaoguiyuan Jue, which can be solved with ordinary sword moves. After reaching Xiantian, the power of my internal force increase has also increased. Even the ordinary Wuyan swordsmanship has surpassed the original The power of the uninnate state. Strength. This sword does not consume much...it should recover soon." Measured the consumption.
He carefully walked to the location where Senior Brother Guang had dissipated, and checked the ground. The ground was flat with only some finely broken stones, and even powder dust could not be seen. There is no need to say anything about the blood beast skull.
After turning around, Lin Xin picked up the torch on the ground and held it in his left hand. When the two torches were put together, the flame was a little brighter.
"Everyone, gather here immediately!" He thought for a while, and suddenly called out loudly.
The sound echoed slowly over the square, echoing after bursts of stirring.
But there was no response....the rest seemed to be dead. Apart from the echo of his shouting, there was no other movement in the whole square.
Lin Xin stood there and waited quietly. He inserted the torch at the fork of a statue, concealed the aura shield with one hand, and held the sword hilt tightly with the other, paying attention to his surroundings.
He waited for dozens of breaths.
Faintly, faint footsteps came from the surrounding darkness.
Lin Xin looked in the direction of the voice.
In the darkness, a blood-stained figure staggered out. It was Xiao Lingling. She also had a bloody gash on her cheek, and there were small wounds on her hands and legs. She was exhausted.
As soon as she saw Lin Xin, a trace of vigilance and panic flashed in her eyes, and then she looked around.
"Lin... Brother Lin... is that you?"
She asked cautiously.
Lin Xin squinted at her and was about to speak.
Immediately afterwards, from the shadow on the right side of Xiao Lingling, another stumbling figure stepped out, also covered in blood, with a bloody gash on the cheek, and small wounds on the hands and legs.
This person is actually Xiao Lingling!
"you!"
"Who are you!?"
The two Xiao Linglings screamed at the same time, staring at each other vigilantly and in a panic.
Lin Xin narrowed his eyes and glanced at the two Xiao Linglings, his expression was a little gloomy.
"Senior brother Lin, I am the real Xiao Lingling, she is fake! Hurry up and kill her!" Xiao Lingling on the right looked anxious and panicked.
"You are the fake! What kind of monster are you!? Brother Lin, I am the real Xiao Lingling, please kill her!" Xiao Lingling on the left hurriedly explained.
The two argued in front of each other, saying that the other was fake.
Lin Xin's expression was gloomy, and he just listened to the two people's arguments. It feels like the two women are constantly buzzing in the ears, like wasps making people annoying.
The strange thing is that these two people are arguing, and they can even tell the little things they have experienced with him before, and the details are vivid, and now it is really difficult to tell the truth from the fake.
When there is a lot of quarrel.
"I know who is real." Lin Xin said suddenly.
Immediately, the two were startled.
"who?"
"It must be her!"
The two Xiao Linglings reacted differently.
Clang!
A silver sword light suddenly lit up, and there was a muffled sound under Lin Xin's feet, and he rushed towards Xiao Lingling to the left like a sharp arrow.
hiss...
The blade of the sword lit up with a little white light, and it was just a simple thrust of the pine forest swordsmanship, with the explosive power of the fourth layer of innate inner energy, it pierced fiercely between the eyebrows of Xiao Lingling on the left.
puff.
Xiao Lingling on the left was stunned for a moment, her whole body twisted suddenly, turned into smoke and disappeared.
Lin Xin slowly withdrew his sword and looked to Xiao Lingling to the right.
"Brother Lin!" Xiao Lingling was stunned for a moment, "How did you tell that I was the real one?"
Lin Xin exhaled slowly, looked at Xiao Lingling, with a trace of worry in his eyes.
"It's okay, I naturally have my own grasp."
"It's okay...it's okay..." Xiao Lingling was so grateful that she wanted to cry, and she was even more moved when she saw the worry in Lin Xin's eyes. "If it weren't for Brother Lin, you... this time... I will definitely die here this time...."
At this time, she was extremely fortunate to let Lin Xin join her team to enter the cave together.
Lin Xin also sighed, but a trace of indifference flashed in his eyes. He said with concern.
"It's fine, it's fine."
He actually didn't tell Xiao Lingling the truth.
He simply guessed one at random. If he killed the wrong one, he would kill both of them together. It would be better if he got it right. Everything depends on luck, after all he is not very familiar with Xiao Lingling, in this dangerous environment, it is natural to cut the mess quickly, no matter right or wrong, as long as he is safe first.
Anyway, there are two options, no matter which one will not threaten yourself.
Of course, these words will naturally not be said directly, since this good result has already been achieved, saying it will only hurt feelings.
Although Xiao Lingling's cultivation base is low, it is still useful even for scouting and sentry. After all, Lin Xin also considers that he will spend a month in this cave by himself, and people will always rest and get tired. There must always be someone in charge of guarding and sentrying.
"Let's go, let's go find someone else." Lin Xin stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Lingling's shoulder, "On the way, bandage the wound so it doesn't get infected..."
Xiao Lingling nodded quickly, only now did she really feel the long-lost sense of security, looking at Lin Xin was like looking at an angel.
From the beginning to the present, she has actually been relying on the help of the Lingzhu Gang to complete the task. When she encounters any danger, there are also people who help her resolve it. She has never encountered such a lonely and helpless situation this time. Under such circumstances, Lin Xin, who suddenly appeared and rescued herself from danger, really became the most dazzling star in her mind.
The two took off the torches one after the other, and began to slowly follow the blood on the ground towards the dark part of the square.
The blood splattered all the way along the ground, until it reached the stone wall at the edge of the square, and then suddenly broke off. There was only a loose black bag on the ground.
The two walked to the edge of the black stone wall and looked up.
Under the light of the fire, the stone wall slowly revealed a hanging corpse.
"Ah!" Xiao Lingling suddenly covered her small mouth and exclaimed in shock. "Ye... it's Senior Brother Ye...!"
Brother Ye is one of Xiao Lingling's suitors in their team.
At this time, his corpse was hanging on the stone wall. Two thick wooden stakes were nailed into the sockets of his eyes, and the back of his head was stuck on the stone wall, fixing the whole body.
"Don't look at it, just pick up his baggage and take it away." Lin Xin exhaled and said in a low voice.
"En." Xiao Lingling endured the fear in her heart, and hurried over to pick up the baggage that fell on the ground from under the corpse.
Lin Xin looked around.
"When I yelled just now, only you appeared around, and no one else came over. After waiting for so long, I guess it's all bad luck..."
"Then what should we do?" Xiao Lingling was at a loss, "Either...or let's go back...Even if we don't pass this time, we will definitely have a chance next time...I heard from my brothers However, it shouldn't be so difficult to try the Sword Listening Conference...it shouldn't be..."
"Go back?" Lin Xin shook his head, a cold look flashed in his eyes. "We have come here, so many people have died, and there is nothing to gain, so just go back like this, can you be willing?"
"I..." Xiao Lingling swallowed.
"Let's go, it shouldn't be so difficult in the future. Otherwise, who else can pass normally?" Lin Xin comforted her. She must find someone who can help her guard, otherwise this kind of cave can't even rest in peace.
Before reuniting with Cheng Ruofei, Kong Yuhui and the others, Xiao Lingling absolutely couldn't let her leave. Although he felt a little guilty, there was nothing he could do.
"Okay..." Xiao Lingling could only grit her teeth and admit it when she heard what Lin Xin said. If she didn't have Lin Xin together, the chance of her surviving alone would be too low.
The two continued to search for a way out around the stone wall, and soon found a dark passage blocked by stones on a stone wall.
After clearing the passage a little, Lin Xin took the lead and walked in. Xiao Lingling followed closely behind, carrying two big bags with great effort, which were full of various water bags and dry food.
Not long after the two entered the passage.
Another group of people ushered in at the entrance of the square.
A group of members of the drug gang slowly entered with cold faces.
"Everyone, be careful, the square is not big, so search separately."
In the darkness, a figure with the appearance of Lin Xin flashed by, standing in the distance and staring coldly at the group of members of the drug gang, with a secret smile on his lips.
