The man who was talking endlessly and was about to fool the two brothers into buying goods only felt a cold wind pass by, and then, a line of warm liquid suddenly splashed on his face.
The man was stunned for a moment, but subconsciously touched the moisture on his face. Unexpectedly, a strong smell of blood rushed straight into Tianling Gai.
The next moment, his face turned extremely pale.
Because behind him, the two brothers who had shared weal and woe with him just now had been killed and were lying on the ground like corpses.
He suddenly felt that his limbs were weak, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, and tremblingly begged, "Two, two eldest brothers, grandpa! You can pay as much as you want, but please don't kill me!"
He wanted to cry but had no tears.
Isn't this just coming out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den?
In short, he is dead today!
The person responsible for the murder picked up the knife and walked step by step in front of the trembling man.
Just as he was about to raise his sword and send him to be with his brothers, he heard other noises in the forest.
The murder knife stopped at the man's neck. He knelt on the spot tremblingly, his eyes rolling around.
Could it be that the cannibal villain is back?
Alas! At this juncture, he didn't know whether it was good or bad for the other party to come back.
If they get into a fight, maybe he can fish in troubled waters and escape in the chaos.
But if they all want their own lives, wouldn't it be even worse for him?
When he thought that he would turn into a white skeleton and be roasted on the fire and become someone else's food, he had no idea at all.
Suddenly, I thought, I might as well wipe my neck myself, since I would be dead sooner or later anyway.
Unexpectedly, another man quietly jumped out of the woods, dressed the same as the two of them, except that there was a penetrating wound on his right eye, which shaved off half of his right eyebrow.
He lowered his voice and said to the injured man, "Brother, it's not good! Someone has followed the trail and is chasing us!"
The injured man frowned and asked quickly, "How many people are there on the other side? How strong are they? Can we rush out with just the three of us?"
Half Eyebrow shook his head and said solemnly, "I didn't dare to reveal my whereabouts in front of them. However, they easily destroyed the traps we left on the road. If it were just the three of us, we would have no chance of escaping."
stay home."
The injured boss frowned even more tightly.
They went through all the troubles to escape, but they didn't give up halfway.
If you can't fight hard, then why not——
The injured boss suddenly turned his attention to the talkative man.
The latter was so frightened that he trembled again After catching the quail, I wanted to dig a hole in the ground and bury myself in it, so as not to be remembered by these terrible people.
"You still hide and serve as our foreign aid." The injured man told Half-Brow.
The latter responded in a low voice, then turned around and ran into the woods.
His movement is very unique, and he seems to blend in easily with the surrounding environment.
If Lin Mengya were here, she would probably be able to figure it out.
The method used by the other party is similar to the concealment function of the system, but it is not as powerful as the system.
However, if he were not hindered by these two companions, it would be extremely easy for him to hide himself.
The injured man covered his chest and let out a long breath, his face not looking too good.
He exchanged glances with his companion who was forcing the talkative man with a long knife.
The latter pushed away silently, and then dragged the two corpses away one by one.
The talkative man who was left alone was holding his head with his arms and mumbling. He must have been really frightened.
"How about if you promise me something, I will promise not to kill you?" the injured man said.
"Master Huo, our people discovered the whereabouts of those people in front. Now they are in the woods. We can cover them from both sides to ensure that they cannot escape."
Huo Xiao stood on a thick banyan tree, overlooking the large forest.
The manpower Gong Ya gave him was indeed very powerful.
Not only are his individual martial arts powerful, but he also cooperates extremely well with each other and implements his orders to a high degree.
Now he can slowly understand why Murong Xi, with his status, can still be devoted to Gong Ya and remain infatuated with her.
Maybe it was her beauty, but in his opinion, the spiritual resonance between the two was more important.
They can complement each other and can trust each other to protect their backs.
He is not only the closest lover, but also the most solid support, and a partner who can share adversity.
To be honest, he envied those two people even more now.
That's right, it's the two of them, not just Murong Xi.
His feelings for Gong Ya have not changed, but he has been impressed by the relationship between the two.
At the moment, he turned his mind back to this arrest operation.
"No need." He jumped down, landed on his mount, and ordered in a cold voice.
"Just pursue it with all your strength. Behind this forest is a
It's a cliff, and they can't fly even if they have wings."
What's more, judging from the clues he obtained in the past few days, the other party was always circling in the forest, and he also found some traces of herbs being collected along the way.
After being identified by the staff who were proficient in medicinal properties, those medicines were herbs with hemostatic and myogenic functions.
In other words, the other party is not trying to escape, but is looking for an opportunity to heal his injuries.
After all, after people are let go, if they want to do something and leave, there is still plenty of time.
However, they still stayed in this forest.
If it wasn't that there was what they were looking for in the woods, it was that they wanted to rest and recuperate and then repeat their old tricks.
As for which one it is, Huo Xiao doesn't care right now.
Wouldn't it be enough to just arrest the person and interrogate him?
Everyone was scattered in the forest, but they still determined each other's positions in a special way to ensure that once someone discovered the target, the rest of them could go over and reinforce it as soon as possible.
Huo Xiao is also among them.
As the former master of the mountain village, he knew every plant and tree on the mountain by heart.
Even though this is not a battlefield he is familiar with, he can still determine the situation inside through the changes in the mountain environment.
It can be said that as long as he is there, the people inside can't escape even if they want to.
Soon, he smelled the smell of blood mixed with the grassy smell of Sophora flavescens.
Then he gestured to the person closest to him.
The latter nodded, covering him, and the two quietly changed directions.
As Huo Xiao got closer, he quietly opened a bunch of hazelnuts that were as tall as a person.
That is--
The talkative man almost cried without grinning when he saw the men suddenly appearing around him, holding swords and other weapons.
If he had known that he would encounter this kind of thing after he came out, he might as well have continued to squat in Level 13 as a coolie!
But the dagger holding him behind him prevented him from falling.
"Behave well, or else!"
The threat meant that he didn't dare to have any other thoughts. He could only clenched his fists and begged for mercy dryly with his tongue stumbling.
"Well, brothers! We three brothers are not really evil people! We just entered by mistake. It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"
That's right.
The injured man's idea was to assume the identities of the Talkative Man and his two brothers.
He knows better than anyone what it means when the thirteen levels are opened this time.< br>
In the past thirteen levels, all those who were supposed to be locked up were traitors.
However, as the Presbyterian Church has grown in power over the years, more and more innocent people have been quietly closed down within the Thirteen Passes.
Most of these people are foreigners, but some are members of various aristocratic families.
Some of them are even the more valued children of their families.
Before that, almost all of them "disappeared" when they went to the Presbyterian Church for training.
Originally, this was not a big deal.
After all, the so-called "experience" requires some people to go in every time.
But those families probably never dreamed that the children they were optimistic about, or even the children they had placed great hopes on, would be thrown into hell because of some people's selfish interests!
No matter how fearful and respectful they are towards the Presbyterian Church, their purpose is to make their family stronger and not become a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered, to be slaughtered at will by the Presbyterian Church.
After all, people's hearts are selfish.
They are attached to the Presbyterian Church in order to obtain greater self-interest, and they will also fall out with the Presbyterian Church in order to protect their own interests.
The purpose of the injured man and his companions is even more important.
Therefore, the most important thing for them is to save their lives.
Others can be tolerated for the time being.
The talkative man's explanation did not impress those who surrounded them.
But they didn't mean to hurt anyone, they just surrounded them. Finally, they sent two people over and tied the hands of all three of them.
The injured man made eye contact with his companion.
Wait and see what happens!
The latter nodded imperceptibly, but at the same time he was also observing the surrounding situation warily.
Soon, two hurried footsteps came over.
The injured man pretended to look up casually and saw two tall and strong men.
Especially the one in front, with black clothes and black hair, and handsome features, but his temperament is too cold, and you can tell at a glance that he is a master who is difficult to deal with.
He lowered his eyes and did not see the glint in Huo Xiao's eyes after seeing him.
It's that person!
Huo Xiao narrowed his eyes and sneered in his heart.
Even though the other party had changed into tattered clothes and deliberately made himself look timid, he still recognized him at a glance.
This man was the gangster who robbed me and my father on the road that day!
It's just that the other party doesn't seem to recognize him.
