Boom! Boom! Boom…
It was dawn, and the sound of rapid horse hooves could be heard on the path leading to the forest.
This is the fifth day.
The two of them traveled non-stop for five days!
"Is Shi Hongdian in Juelin?"
Su Yun glanced at the rising sun in the sky, looked up at Ah San who was leading the way on a mysterious horse, and asked.
"Yes! It must be in Juelin!"
Ah San nodded and shouted: "After my brother was captured by Shi Hongdian, Ah San has been following him. On the way, he had the idea of saving my brother, but he was frightened by Shi Hongdian's powerful methods. He gave up and wandered into Jinghu Town, eager to get powerful help. Judging from the direction Shi Hongdian was heading in the first place, he will definitely enter Juelin!"
Jue Lin is located thousands of miles north of Jinghu Town. It is a huge wild forest. The leaves in the forest are huge and airtight. The forest is extremely dark. It is said that there are ghosts in Jue Lin from time to time, making it rare to see people near Jue Lin. No one settles here, and no one dares to come here on weekdays.
When Su Yun heard this, he rolled his eyes, thought for a while and asked: "If you want to go to Juelin, wouldn't it be faster to take Kangming Avenue? Why choose this Yanxi path? This road is winding and rugged, and it is very difficult to walk. If we go from here, we will delay our journey for at least another day!"
"is that so?"
Ah San was stunned for a while, then scratched his head, and said with an embarrassed and honest smile: "Sorry, sir, I'm not very familiar with Jue Lin. Is it faster to take Kangming Avenue? Then let's take Kangming Avenue instead. !”
"No need!"
Su Yun smiled bitterly: "We have already come here, what else should we change? After walking this way, we will reach the Juelin Forest. Let's get ready!"
"Yes!" Ah San nodded, his expression becoming serious.
"Oh, by the way, since you have met Shi Hongdian, do you also know his moves? Tell me his moves!"
Su Yun suddenly spoke.
"How many ways?" Ah San touched his chin and thought for a while, then said: "Shi Hongdian's power is very strong and varied, but according to my observation... his weakness is in the bottom plate!"
"The bottom plate?"
Su Yun was astonished: "For someone with great strength, isn't it possible that the bottom plate is still unstable?"
"Sir, if you think so, you have fallen into a misunderstanding. That is true for ordinary people, but it is different for Shi Hongdian. Shi Hongdian is nicknamed 'demon power'. That power is ever-changing. How can it be used? Treat it with ordinary people’s eyes? Right?”
"What you said makes sense! My thinking is rigid!"
Su Yun said in agreement and stopped talking.
Xuan Ma quickened his hooves and continued running, heading towards Juelin.
The closer they got to the Jue Lin, the surrounding light became dimmer for some reason. Several big birds flew out of the forest, and bursts of decaying smell rose up and wafted. As the distance between the two of the Jue Lin shrank, the smell became stronger. It's becoming more and more intense, making it very uncomfortable for those who choke.
Soon, a huge forest appeared in Su Yun's eyes.
The forest is very strange, the leaves are all black, and deep in the forest, several green lights can be seen flashing, and I don't know what they are. It makes people's scalp numb.
Then Ah San got off his horse, tied the mysterious horse to the roadside, and then said to Su Yun: "Sir, follow me!"
Su Yun nodded, got off his horse, and followed him into Jue Lin.
Guagua! Guaguagua!
There were bursts of strange cries.
Several strange birds that looked like eagles flew out of the forest and escaped into the sky.
Su Yun glanced at the few birds flying away, lowered his head and thought for a while, and then continued to move forward with Asan.
Ah San led the way with familiarity, and the two of them slowly went deep into the forest. The light around them became darker and darker, the temperature in the air became darker and darker, and the atmosphere became weirder and weirder.
"Ah San, where else are you taking me? This is Juelin, right? We are not familiar with this, so it would be better to lure Shi Hongdian outside! I am not familiar with this place!"
Su Yun shouted.
"Sir, follow me. I know where Shi Hongdian is. That Shi Hongdian must be practicing at the moment. If we catch him by surprise and take the opportunity to sneak attack and kill him, maybe we can easily solve him!!"
Ah San said seriously.
"oh."
Su Yun looked very reasonable and nodded.
Ah San smiled honestly at Su Yun, then continued to turn his head and lead the way.
Poof!
At this time, a sharp sword suddenly stabbed him from behind, piercing his chest, and blood dripped down instantly.
Ah San's whole body twitched, his eyes widened, and he looked at the sword edge on his chest in astonishment, his eyes full of surprise.
He turned his head with difficulty, only to see the man in the iron mask staring at him coldly.
"Sir... you... what are you doing?"
Ah San said with difficulty, blood still flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"Why act?"
Su Yun said calmly: "I thought you were a thoughtful person, but I didn't expect you to be so careless!"
"Rough... careless?"
"You told me before that you were not familiar with Jue Lin and mistakenly took the far-away Yanxi path. I believed it to be true. But I didn't expect that just now, you said that you knew where Shi Hongdian was... If you knew this How can a person like us be a stranger to Jue Lin? How can we not know that we can reach Jue Lin earlier by taking Kangming Avenue? So, you better stop trying to trick me. You took me to Yanxi Trail just to delay time! You So that I can inform Shi Hongdian and ambush me, right?"
Su Yun said calmly, and then moved his arm, and the uh Qianyuan that penetrated Asan's body turned in a circle.
Ah San's whole body twitched, and the seemingly honest face suddenly changed, causing a lot of ripples, and then, a more childish face appeared.
This face, which looks like he is about 27 or 28 years old, is now full of distortion and pain.
"I didn't expect... I didn't expect you to see through it... It's not simple! It's really not simple... Ahem..."
Ah San's face began to turn pale, and he spoke in an extremely weak voice.
"Disguise? I didn't expect you to disguise your appearance..."
Seeing Ah San's face change, Su Yun suddenly realized.
"If my prediction is correct, Shi Hongdian has now set up an ambush at a location you know, waiting for you to lead me there? The reason why you delay is to notify Shi Hongdian to prepare, right?"
"No... not bad!"
A ferocious smile appeared at the corner of Ah San's mouth. He raised his trembling hand to grab the sword, and chuckled weakly: "I... am actually Shi Hongdian's apprentice. He taught me the method of absorbing souls. As a condition, I Every month I have to bring a spiritual practitioner here who is strong enough and can be dealt with, and then the two of them work together to kill it so that he can absorb and practice the techniques. I disguise myself every time to lure the spiritual practitioner. In order to prevent myself from being recognized by the person in charge of the killing list, I staggered my appearance every time. Four persons in charge of the killing list would take turns guarding me within twelve hours a day, and I staggered my choices. I had successfully seduced him before. I didn't expect... you would see through it." At this point, Ah San's eyes showed a trace of unwillingness: "When did you start to doubt me?"
"The concern in your eyes when I asked you to buy Genma."
Su Yun said calmly: "When I asked you to buy Xuanma and prepare to set off immediately, your eyes were not the kind of fanaticism that couldn't wait for revenge, but worry and concern. This made me doubt how a person with hatred could do anything. Are you thinking of revenge as soon as possible? Because of this, I became suspicious!"
"Just with a look?"
"That's enough!" Su Yun said.
Ah San was stunned. After a while, he laughed miserably. More and more blood was coming out of his mouth, and it kept pouring out along his lips. However, he did not feel much pain. On the contrary, at this time, the two of them were He grabbed Su Yun's hand and smiled evilly at him: "You are very smart, but in the end, you made a miscalculation! This place has long been Shi Hongdian's territory! Once you enter here, you will be dead, haha... No way out, no way out, hahahaha..."
As the voice fell, Ah San suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a blood arrow into the air, shooting straight into the sky. The blood arrow entered the air and disappeared immediately.
Seeing this, Su Yun wanted to stop the bloody arrow, but it was too late.
His heart condensed slightly, and he immediately grabbed Qian Yuan and slashed upward.
Ah San's entire body was cut in half, blood flowed from his internal organs to the ground, and his bones were chopped into pieces.
Ah San died immediately!
Su Yun snorted secretly and put away his sword.
From this point of view, Ah San is actually Shi Hongdian's apprentice. Shi Hongdian is now on the wanted list. He is extremely dangerous and is often killed by hunters. In order to practice safely, he tries to expose his whereabouts as little as possible. , but chose a person who was covetous of his skills as his apprentice, used the apprentice as bait, and brought some spiritual practitioners who wanted to kill him and who he could deal with, and then the two of them worked together to ambush Shi Hong. Dian is using it to practice.
Ah San was not angry when he was hit, but patiently delayed with Su Yun, holding back a mouthful of blood arrows and spraying them into the air. In fact, he was reporting to Shi Hongdian.
I'm afraid that now that Shi Hongdian knows about Ah San's exposure, he will rush here as soon as possible.
In this case, don't let yourself ambush him again!
Think about it!
Su Yun suddenly moved and jumped towards the big tree on the side. He flew into the dense tree several times and hid.
With the divine eyes of heavenly scales covering his aura, as long as his body is not exposed, no one will notice it! The usual method used by highly skilled spiritual practitioners to use their energy to see if someone was there was completely useless in front of Su Yun.
The surroundings were very quiet, and strange green will-o'-wisps were floating in the woods, giving the already dark forest an indescribable weirdness.
only.
After hiding in the big tree for a whole day, Shi Hongdian did not appear.
Ah San's body started to stink.
Didn't he hear about Ah San's death? In other words, he has been exposed a long time ago
Su Yun was filled with doubts.
I dare not show the slightest slightness, and still hide in the tree, staring at everything below.
Could it be that Shi Hongdian is also waiting? Waiting for you to continue deeper into the woods
At this time, the key is patience!
Su Yun did not dare to advance rashly. After all, Shi Hongdian's strength was several levels higher than his own. It would not be a big problem to fight him head-on. But if the other party launched a sneak attack or trap to kill him, it would be the end.
Click.
Just when Su Yun was thinking wildly and calculating his next move, something suddenly made a crisp sound from somewhere around the silent forest.
Su Yun's ears twitched and he quickly followed the sound, only to see a figure slowly approaching here.
