Zu An flew to the northwest and flew about half the distance. Suddenly his heart moved and he lowered his head and looked at the ground. There were two figures there, wearing what seemed to be the standard clothes of the academy disciples.
He quickly landed in front of the two people. "Who are you?"
As he spoke, he carefully looked at the two of them. Their appearance was unremarkable, and they were unrecognizable even if they were thrown into a crowd.
Many of the clothes on his body were damaged, and there was still a trace of blood on them, as if he had gone through a hard battle.
Both of them looked a little pale and their breathing was a little disordered. They must have been seriously injured.
"We are disciples from the academy who have come here to practice. Who are you?" The two of them looked at him warily and secretly clenched their weapons.
Zu An raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm the college's celebrant, and I just happened to come over to investigate the mutation in Tongluo Mountain."
"It turns out it's Master Jijiu!" The two men breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly saluted him. "I hope Jijiu can save us. We thought we were going to die here."
"How did you get injured?" Zu An asked in a deep voice. Tongluo Mountain is so weird now, any information would be useful.
The two looked at each other and said, "We encountered a purple monster. The monster was too terrifying. We were no match at all. Fortunately, we had some protective gear on us and we managed to escape."
"What does that monster look like?" Zu An asked.
"The whole body is purple and looks like a ghost in a storybook."
"It seems to have purple flames all over its body. No matter how we attack it, we can't seem to hurt it."
…
The two of them talked to each other, describing the monster in their impressions.
Zu An thought that the two of them must have encountered the Purple Flame Ghost. It seemed that there was more than one Purple Flame Ghost in the mountain.
It's hard for these two disciples to escape from the hands of the Purple Flame Ghost. They are worthy of being geniuses from academies all over the country.
He originally wanted the two of them to meet up with Ji Xiaoxi and others, but then he thought about it and flew all the way here. This place is not close to where Ji Xiaoxi and others are, so they might not be able to find it, and what if they encounter the Zi Yan ghost again along the way?
I feel uneasy about my life.
"I'm going to check out the front. You guys come with me. I'll take you out of the mountain after I finish checking." Zu An said.
The two looked at each other and hurriedly saluted Zu An, "Thank you, Lord Jijiu!"
If you stay with him, your life will be saved.
Zu An nodded, thinking that when he returned, he would have to tell the academy to ask them to stop sending disciples for trials.
"By the way, what are your names?" he asked casually.
"Disciple Wang Shao."
"Disciple He Lu."
The two men bowed and replied.
"What?" Zu An felt numb for a moment. They were the companions of the academy disciples just now. Aren't they dead?
"What happened to the sacrificial wine?" Seeing Zu An's reaction, the two of them were a little confused.
"Nothing." Zu An remained calm and wondered secretly. Could it be that the situation was too critical at that time and Yao Fang and the others did not have time to check the situation of the two of them in detail. They also had some magic weapons to fake death. After the Ziyan ghost left, they left secretly.
?
Or maybe Yao Fang and the others are lying?
He was confused, but he didn't show it.
Soon he led the two of them and continued to drive northwest. It was obvious that the two disciples were not yet able to fly, so he held them by the shoulders and flew all the way.
After a while, sounds gradually came from the front, and people could be vaguely seen, as if they were searching for something.
Zu An did not dodge and rushed over with the two of them.
"Who!" Those people also noticed the movement here and drew their weapons and surrounded them.
Seeing the situation on the other side, He Lu and Wang Shao breathed a sigh of relief, "It's not a monster."
Zu An carefully looked at the group of people opposite. They were wearing the uniforms of government officials and police officers. The person they were protecting in the middle was an old woodcutter. He didn't know if he was too scared. He was shaking all over and his face was extremely pale.
Zu An thought of what the embroidered messengers he met before entering the town said. It seemed that they were the team of detectives who went into the mountains to investigate the case of the missing woodcutter.
"Who are you?" The detective in charge looked at Zu An and the others warily.
"We are college disciples, and this is our college's sacrificial wine. It's very powerful!" Wang Shao introduced it first.
"It turns out to be Master Jijiu." The catcher's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly led his men to salute.
Zu An's eyes fell on their somewhat damaged clothes, "Just after a battle?"
The catcher nodded and said, "Yes, some monsters suddenly appeared here. They were very powerful. We brothers thought we were doomed, but we didn't expect Master Jijiu to come. It seems we are saved."
Zu An was a little confused, "I've encountered those monsters before, they were very powerful, but you were only slightly injured?"
You must know that although these disciples in the academy are all juniors in front of him, in fact, every one of them is a genius boy from all over the country. Any one of them in Mingyue City is no better than geniuses like Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman back then.
How different are the disciples?
So many disciples from the academy encountered the monster while working together, and suffered heavy losses. The cultivation level of these government officials was far inferior to theirs, so how could they only suffer minor injuries?
The head catcher was startled, but he still explained, "Maybe the monster was injured, and Zhang Woodman is very familiar with the situation in the mountains, so we were lucky enough to save our lives."
"What did you seem to be searching for just now?" Zu An looked around, but unfortunately he didn't see anything.
"It's just a lone monster. The monster was seriously injured. Originally, we thought about catching one and bringing it back. Maybe we could make a great contribution and get a reward. Unfortunately, we searched for a long time and couldn't find it.
I think the monster has escaped, so let’s go back first.”
Zu An nodded, "This is indeed very dangerous, and you are not allowed to set foot in it."
Why is the monster injured?
Could it be that he met Ji Dengtu?
The old boy was hiding very deep, and he didn't expect to be able to severely injure this monster.
"Did you find any information after entering the mountain?" Zu An looked around. The fog was getting thicker and thicker, and it was glowing with purple, giving people an extremely depressing feeling.
This should be deep in Tongluo Mountain. I don’t know how far it is from Shadow Moon Lake.
"No, just a monster came out and almost wiped out our group." A group of policemen said with lingering fear.
Zu An nodded, truly unable to blame them harshly, "Which direction did the monster just run to?"
"Over there." The head catcher pointed in one direction, "Is Jijiu going to catch that monster?"
Zu An hummed. Since he is here, he should first find out what is going on, otherwise he will always feel uneasy.
The mutation of Tongluo Mountain is really strange.
"Let us lead the way for you," the head catcher said, "We have been here for a while and are somewhat familiar with this area. Of course, it will definitely be safer to follow you."
Seeing that the other party was a little nervous, Zu An laughed dumbly and said, "Okay."
If they were left like this, they might not be able to get out of the mountain alive. It was better to stay with him and lead them out of the mountain with Xiaoxi and the others.
Zu An took the lead and walked at the front, Wang Shao Helu followed beside him, and the team of detectives spread out in the surroundings, protecting Zhang Woodcutter in the center.
However, the fog was getting thicker and thicker, and it was impossible to see clearly even a few meters away. Even Zu An's spiritual thoughts could only spread out within a few dozen feet. He couldn't help but secretly lamented that Zhao Hao was always missing from his special cultivation method.
Waiting for the supernatural powers of those truly immortals.
If Zhao Hao were here, he should be able to sense further.
Of course, he has many special keyboard abilities, which are actually more cost-effective than the abilities of those earthly immortals.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound, and Zu An moved and appeared dozens of feet away.
There is no monster here. On the contrary, there is a page hanging on the branch, which seems to have been torn from a book, with a trace of blood still on it.
Zu An picked it up and saw the content on it. It was an extremely fragrant story fragment, and his eyebrows couldn't help but raise.
"Jiujiu, what did you find?" Soon the other people ran over and asked nervously.
"It's nothing, it might be the sound of the wind blowing." Zu An turned his back to them and put the page into his arms without leaving any trace.
"Sacrifice the wine, why don't we go out first? It's really scary here." He Lu and Wang Shao swallowed.
"Okay!" Zu An nodded, not this time.
Reject again.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from behind.
"Zhang Woodcutter!" The head catcher was startled and hurriedly ran back. They had chased him too quickly and left Zhang Woodcutter behind.
Zu An flashed his figure and returned to where he was just one step ahead of them. He saw Zhang Woodcutter already lying in a pool of blood, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
He glanced around and saw that the murderer had probably run away.
Then he walked over to Zhang Woodcutter and turned over his body to see where his injuries were and whether he could be saved.
Who knew that the change in the next second would suddenly increase, and a strange smile appeared on Zhang Woodman's face. He opened his mouth, and a shadow rushed directly towards Zu An's face. The speed was even faster than that of the killers in Shadow Tower.
sword.
However, a golden light flashed, and Zu An could not see how he made a move. The shadow had been split in half. Only then could he clearly see that the shadow was a creature similar to an alien facehugger, with several tentacles still twitching slightly on the ground.
"Zhang Woodcutter, what are you doing!" The head catcher was frightened and angry. He rushed over and struck Zhang Woodcutter with a knife.
However, just as the knife was halfway through the strike, its direction suddenly changed and it was wiped towards Zu An's throat. The speed increased by an unknown number of times compared to before.
boom!
The head catcher was like a broken sandbag, flying directly more than ten meters away, and fell to the ground as if all his bones were broken.
When the other detectives saw this, they also drew their swords and struck at Zu An.
Zu An rolled up his sleeves, and an invisible force spread out. The waist knives in the hands of those people were instantly twisted into twists. The huge force continued to spread along the blades. The sleeves of several detectives soon broke inch by inch, and their bodies
It was even twisted by the force of rotation and spun many times in the air before falling heavily to the ground.
Their arms were naturally broken, and they were all smashed to pieces, instantly losing their fighting ability.
"There's something wrong with these agents!" He Lu and Wang Shao ran to Zu An nervously, watching all this with horror on their faces.
Zu An's eyes fell on the "facehugger" that was chopped into two parts. "I don't know what this is..."
At this moment, Wang Shao and He Lu beside him both pulled out a small knife and inserted it into his lower back, one on the left and the other on the right. A hint of ferocity flashed across their faces.
Zu An sighed, "Have you finally taken action?"
The two of them were startled. This man was stabbed in his vitals, how could he act like he was fine?
They hurriedly pulled out the dagger again, and their eyes almost popped out of their eyes, because they found that their dagger had been broken inch by inch, with only a hilt left.
"Why is this man's body so hard?"
As soon as a thought came to their minds, the two of them were knocked away by the huge force and hit the tree. The energy and blood in the whole body was boiling, and they could not find any strength.
"You, when did you find out?" The two of them looked at Zu An in disbelief.
