Chapter 152 Two birds with one stone?
Jiang Luoning carried Xu Ming on her back to a water source at the foot of the back mountain, and crossed the small river, which happened to be outside the boundary of this mountain.
"Drinking some water is good for recovery." Jiang Luoning filled Xu Ming's wine bottle with some water and handed it to him to drink.
Xu Ming, who had drank some water, calmed down a bit and laughed at himself: "I'm sorry, I didn't help much this time. I didn't expect that guy to be so powerful."
Jiang Luoning did not comment, but asked: "Is there anything serious about your health?"
The green-shirted young man sitting on the ground shook his head slightly: "It's okay, I have this heart stone to protect me, and you should also understand its weight."
Jiang Luoning didn't say anything else. She took a sip of water and sat next to him: "I didn't expect that monster to be able to practice magic. I was careless."
"I saw at first sight that he was not a ghost, so I ignored it in my heart. I didn't expect that this guy practiced both and dabbled in both."
Xu Ming recalled the magic technique that Mourning Master used before his final escape. He managed to "escape from his shell" without anyone noticing, and came to him silently, and then escaped without any trace.
The situation was urgent just now, so even if he saw this situation, he couldn't think too much about it. Looking back now, he found that some of the details were indeed strange.
But despite this, Xu Ming still didn't care much and waved his hand: "As long as everything is fine, we now know the family background of that bastard."
Jiang Luoning looked at the hilltop in front of her, which was the scene of the fierce fight between the two sides just now: "The mansion of the leopard monster must be somewhere on this mountain. It should be very hidden and cannot be discovered by ordinary people."
"As long as he is on the top of this mountain, he will be invincible, unless you can open more than 150 acupoints and join forces with me."
Xu Ming touched his chin and felt a little helpless: "It seems to be true. After all, I have been rooted here for at least decades. I have a good cultivation level. If I want to create some specific environment, it is enough."
"But as long as that leopard is not truly comparable to a strong man in the cave realm, then we still have a chance."
Jiang Luoning was convinced: "That's true, but we have to find a way to lead him out of this mountain, even if we use brute force to pull him out."
"Out of this small world, its combat power has been exhausted, which means it is in the Aperture Realm. Plus, it is injured, so it will not be easy."
"If it is hit by my sword again, even if it does not die, it will have no chance to escape."
Xu Ming glanced at her: "How sure are you?"
"It depends on whether we can pull it down the mountain." Jiang Luoning did not give a definite answer.
Xu Ming stretched out and said lazily: "It's a bit difficult. I saw it just now. This guy would rather let us go than let us drag it down the mountain."
Jiang Luoning said calmly: "It has been able to work hard for so long, and its mind is no worse than ordinary people. It's not completely brainless, otherwise it wouldn't think so much."
"The move it used to hurt you just now was a move from a ghost cultivator. This move is rare in the world. Looking at the world, not many people can do it."
Xu Ming coughed twice, covered his wound, and said with a wry smile: "The world is huge and there are many opportunities. Everyone has their own destiny. It's not surprising. It just feels like a flower stuck in cow dung."
"That's not what you said." Jiang Luoning looked strange.
Xu Ming shrugged: "Anyway, that's pretty much the point."
Probably because he felt that there was enough chatting, Jiang Luoning returned to the topic and said: "I should have thought of it earlier. Since the leopard monster can cause people to have bad luck without anyone noticing, it will definitely use some means to make people feel like they are psychic.
magic."
Xu Ming looked around: "We are just in front of that guy's gate now, will we be heard?"
"Even though this river is like a chasm, it can't hear it as long as I'm here." Jiang Luoning gently wiped the sword in front of her.
At this point, she paused and said sarcastically: "Besides, it's just a monster that's not even half-assed in the cave realm. It's just talking freely in its so-called small world, so what?"
Hearing this, Xu Ming breathed a sigh of relief: "It's too late. We can't put it off again and again, lest we have long nights and lots of dreams. So we have to try and see how we can catch that little mourner."
Jiang Luoning turned to look at him with interest: "Do you have any idea?"
"The premise is that we are sure to drag it down the mountain, otherwise it will be useless to find it." Xu Ming replied with a smile.
Jiang Luoning withdrew her gaze solemnly, lightly swiping her fingers on the sword. The sword was like a mirror, reflecting her pretty face: "In this life, I hate people who show off their secrets the most."
The young man in green shirt next to him sat upright and said solemnly: "Me too. I was thinking that there must have been a lot of noise in the back mountain just now. If the Wang family really has something to do with this monster, they will definitely come to check.
"
"This method is not 100% successful, but once it works, it will be confirmed that these two families are colluding to prey on the villagers."
Jiang Luoning put away her sword and thought for a while: "It does make sense. Now we have no other choice, this is the only way."
"Do you want to rest here until I come back with the head of the leopard monster?"
Xu Ming sighed, feeling helpless: "How about you leave first? If I can move later, I will follow you."
Jiang Luoning had already stood up and left here, without looking back: "You just need to wait for me here. If you are afraid, you can also go back to the village. I will look for you here first afterward, and I will go back to the village if you don't see me."
"I'm not a three-year-old child, there's no need." Xu Ming protested.
However, the girl had already walked away, and she probably wouldn't have answered even if she heard this.
Xu Ming, who was sitting alone by the river at the foot of the mountain, sighed: "I just hope I don't do bad things with good intentions this time."
…
Just as Xu Ming said, the movement in the back mountain was so loud that many villagers, not to mention the Wang family, were also aware of it.
Long before the battle in the back mountain ended, the villagers looked up at the back mountain, whispering, and each had their own guesses.
Some people said that today is the Ridge Festival, and the mountain gods saw their sincerity, so they danced happily.
Some people also say that the mountain god just turned over.
Of course, some brave people took shovels and said that there were monsters and monsters who wanted to destroy the feng shui of this place. They wanted to kill the monsters and eliminate them. They must not wake up the mountain god for such a trivial matter.
At this moment, it was Wang Hanbin who took over and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Don't worry, everyone, there won't be any monsters and monsters. Lord Shan Shen is very capable. Xiaoxiao will be blown away before he even gets close to this place."
"Everyone is waiting here. I asked my son to go over and check the situation. It should be just a small matter. Don't panic!"
Wang Shaan, who was squatting in the corner, said nothing after receiving the order. He remained as taciturn as ever and turned around to walk towards the back mountain.
The back mountain is an inaccessible place, and almost everyone will not walk unless necessary, so the trail is not particularly obvious.
However, this young master's legs are not very strong. He has not been very good at climbing mountains since he was a child. Every time he walked, it was like a turtle crawling. By the time he reached the back mountain, the battle was over.
He was dumbfounded as he looked at the massive mess in the back mountain. Many trees had been broken, and there were shocking cracks.
He couldn't imagine what happened here just now.
Thinking that there might be a monster here, Wang Shaan, who was horrified in his heart, turned around and walked away without saying a word.
This time he was not so slow. He seemed to have unleashed his full potential and ran very fast. He returned to the front mountain in almost half the time it took him to come.
Wang Shaan came to his biological father with a bit of shock on his face.
Wang Hanbin reminded in a low voice: "What do you mean by panicking? Calm your mind first before talking to me!"
Under pressure from his father, Wang Shaan quickly calmed down his tone and softly recounted everything he saw and heard.
After hearing this, Wang Hanbin didn't quite believe it, but when he thought it was his son and his expression, he put his thoughts aside.
Anyone in the world could disobey him, Wang Hanbin, but this biological son would not.
"You stay here to calm down and assist your mother. I'm going to go over and take a look now. Don't tell anyone about this matter!"
Wang Shaan readily agreed.
Wang Hanbin found another way to go to the back mountain.
