In the latter half of the night when the moon is obscured by clouds.
The Fubo Mountains are pitch black.
The mountains lie on the ground like giant beasts. On this night, except for the insects hiding in the nooks and crannies that occasionally make a courtship sound, there is no other movement.
On the west side of a huge ridge that runs from north to south, there is a small, inconspicuous hilltop. The top of the hill is barely connected to the ridge. In this dark night, it is really inconspicuous to the extreme.
On the west side of the hilltop, in a slightly sunken depression halfway up the mountain, there were thick bushes. There was no sound of insects and it was completely silent.
Suddenly, the lowest-looking bush among the bushes seemed to move slightly, and then there was a long silence, as if the movement just now was an illusion.
After an unknown amount of time, the low shrub moved again. This time, the entire shrub and the soil beneath it were lifted up, and a dark figure emerged from it!
He carefully looked around, then disappeared in a flash. When he reappeared, he was already in front of a tree trunk a few feet away in the east. He pressed his body against the tree trunk, and no light reflected from his body covered with mud.
He closed his eyes and concentrated for a moment like a dead thing on a wooden stake, and then turned into an erratic black shadow, flashing in the forest.
Sometimes at the base of the tree trunk, sometimes on the branches of the vines, it is as dexterous as a monkey and makes no sound.
Just as he was walking out of Lixu, crossing a small river, and about to jump to the hillside on the other side, suddenly there was a jet-black mist that ordinary people could not see clearly, shooting from the distant sky!
Without even thinking about it, the black figure running through the mountains and forests immediately made a hand gesture to summon the flying sword. A green sword energy suddenly lit up, carrying him towards the west!
In the emerald green light, the figure can be seen, it is the middle-aged man who was previously corroded by the dim fog!
At this time, the blue robe on his body was in tatters and was covered with dry and wet mud. The original color could not be seen at all. His body and face were also dirty, and he looked extremely miserable.
The emerald green flying sword is extremely fast, and it can be said to be lightning fast, but the tracking black mist behind him is faster. Even if it draws an arc in mid-air, it can bring the distance between them closer!
The middle-aged man made a secret with one hand and flew with his sword while gritting his teeth, while waving his sleeves behind him. Every time he waved his sleeves, he could bring up a huge emerald green magic circle, but the magic circle only touched the black mist every time.
It will be corroded and disintegrated by the powerful force at an extremely fast speed, and there is no way to stop its approaching speed!
The distance was getting closer and closer, and the figure glowing with dim light in the black mist slowly spoke, "I will capture you without any help, and I will reward you with a quick death, otherwise you will eventually fall into my hands after a struggle, and it will be difficult for you to die even if you want to.
You should have heard of the methods of the valley!"
The middle-aged man didn't even look back, biting the tip of his tongue and saying nothing.
The dim figure in the black mist laughed angrily when he saw this. After a few screams, the black mist condensed and shrank, turning into a flying blade. The figure opened his hands, and the speed of the flying blade suddenly increased by more than one step, and it moved towards the center.
Cut away the young man’s emerald green sword energy!!
The middle-aged man was obviously at the end of his strength. Sensing the danger behind him, he only had time to turn around and point his right hand holding the sword in the direction of the flying blade!
The emerald-green sword energy wrapped around the long sword and drew an arc in the air before shooting back. The middle-aged man himself jumped off the flying sword at some point and continued to fly forward with the previous momentum!
The emerald-green sword energy was not that huge, but it cut into the flying blade composed of black mist like a crushing force, and stabbed straight in front of the dim figure. But the dim figure just raised his hand and struck the emerald-green sword energy to the ground.
It broke every inch, and then a hand actually grasped the flying sword in it!!
"Death struggle..." The dim figure pointed forward with his other hand, and the flying blade that was cut off by the sword re-closed, separated from his surroundings, and moved towards the middle-aged man at a faster speed.
Cut in the direction!
The middle-aged man was in mid-air and could not avoid it. Just when he was about to be struck by the flying blade, a thick water-colored sword energy nearly seventy feet long rose from the ground like a pillar reaching the sky.
, directly smashed the black mist flying blade into pieces, and then the blue sword light pressed on its own, slashing straight towards the dim figure speeding in the sky behind!!
The dim figure didn't seem to have much preparation, and immediately stopped in mid-air. He was still holding the long sword that had dispersed the light with one hand, and raised the other hand towards the sky. In the surrounding darkness, countless dim yellow threads gathered crazily.
Coming, he threw the gathered dim yellow light forward, and the strands of dim yellow light whirled and hit the water-colored sword energy, as insignificant as a ladle of cold water poured on a big tree, but it was these insignificant
The dim yellow light came out of the huge water-colored sword energy, and a huge hole was drilled out!!
The dim figure stood in mid-air, looking at a blue sword light in the void opposite. In the sword light, a burly man was holding the muddy and embarrassed middle-aged man in his arms, with longing eyes.
crack!
"Junior Brother Chang! Junior Brother Chang!!" The burly man pressed his hand on the middle-aged man's chest, and water-colored light flooded his body over and over again, "How do you feel?!"
The middle-aged man's eyes were slightly blurry at this moment. He raised his head and looked at the dim figure in the distant sky that almost blended into the dark night. He said quickly, "Brother Niu, let's leave quickly! This monster's methods are vicious.
, don’t get too entangled with him..."
"It doesn't matter!" The burly man followed the middle-aged man's gaze, and his eyes almost ignited with fire as he glared at the dim figure, "As long as I try my best to drag this bitch here for a while.
, let him die without a burial place!! This bitch dares to do this to you, I..."
"Senior Brother Niu...Senior Brother!" The middle-aged man coughed a few times and hurriedly interrupted, "I'm afraid...I can't hold on in this situation...I have
Important things... important things, I must see the prefect of Li County!!!"
The burly man's right hand, which had already grasped the sword technique, stopped in mid-air. A wide flying sword fell from the sky in front of him. Moistened by the water-colored light, it buzzed with excitement. He handed a porcelain bottle to the middle-aged man and said, "
Junior brother Chang, please take medicine and recuperate while you raid the formation for me. It only takes a moment. If reinforcements don’t come, senior brother will never stop fighting!"
"Senior brother!" The middle-aged man grabbed the burly man's sleeve, his face covered with mud was miserable, and his look that was better just now was rapidly fading, "Senior brother, I have been poisoned and I will die soon. I need to see you before I die.
Grand Administrator of Li County, senior brother...!"
"What?! You...!" The burly man put his hand on the middle-aged man's chest again, but suddenly raised his head and became furious!!
