"What?" Li Tian exclaimed. He never expected that something happened to Wan Xiaoqing and the others. At this moment, his heart twitched.
Soon after everyone's discussion, Teacher Zhong gave a response.
Zhong Mingxiu: Task Pavilion miscalculated the level of tasks. This is the responsibility of the college. However, the college does not interfere with students' tasks. This is a rule. Student Zhao Yinyu said it right. From the moment you embark on the path of cultivation, your life depends on it.
You are responsible for this. If they can come back alive, the hospital will provide corresponding compensation.
After reading Zhong Mingxiu's words, Li Tian suddenly felt cold. Is this the cold world of cultivation? Even the college's attitude towards the life and death of students is so indifferent.
Gu Qin's message was quickly sent to the group with the appearance of Zhong Mingxiu.
Gu Qin: Teacher Zhong, please go save them. That practitioner is not strong. You can definitely save them if you take action.
It's just that this news was like a stone, and it didn't make any waves in the group. Not to mention Zhong Mingxiu, not even anyone else posted a word.
Among the students of their class, only Yun Zhi and he were at the Siquan realm, and only a few others were at the Muscle and Bone realm. Who would be willing to face an unknown practitioner for two unrelated people?
Li Tian's clenched right hand was trembling. He didn't know what to do at this moment. Facing life and death, his heart was very resistant. He wanted to save Wan Xiaoqing and the others, but he hesitated at this moment.
He didn't even dare to tell Yun Zhi about this, fearing that he would be put in danger for himself.
He hesitated in the bathroom, trying desperately to come up with a perfect solution, but time waited for no one, and they would all be in danger of being killed if they were late.
Finally, Li Tian gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He was going to save Wan Xiaoqing and the others, even if this trip meant a narrow escape from death.
After learning the bad news, every second that passed was a torment for him, and he could not waste any more time.
He quickly clicked on the avatar named Gu Qin in the group and asked him to tell him the location of the mission.
Gu Qin had just felt the indifference of human feelings, but now he saw a glimmer of hope. He sent the address to Li Tian without hesitation, hoping for a miracle, otherwise the two girls would surely die.
With his blood boiling, Li Tian quickly put away the contact device and walked out of the bathroom. Yun Zhi, who was sitting on the bed, was meditating at the moment. It just so happened that Li Tian quickly walked to the bed, took out the compass and stuffed it into his pants.
He turned around and looked at Ergou, who was staring at him with a puzzled look on his face, and said, "I left my stuff at Xiuzhan Pavilion. I'll go get it."
Ergou looked at him in a hurry, replied "Oh," and ignored him.
Li Tian had a firm look in his eyes, no longer worrying, turned around and walked out of the dormitory.
At this time, the sun had already set on the mountain peaks, and the dim sky was intertwined with bright street lights, making it look particularly lonely.
He quickly arrived at the entrance of the college. At this time, the door was tightly closed. Only the small door on one side was still open. He walked out without much delay.
It was just dark at this time, and there were still many people going in and out of the college. There were rows of rickshaws parked at the entrance, obviously doing business here specifically for students.
As soon as he stood at the door, a strong man pulled a car towards him.

Come running.
Dark skin and strong muscles, this is the reality of the rickshaw man.
"Classmate, do you want to take a ride?" The uncle asked Li Tian with a smile on his face. He obviously wanted to grab this business. The others saw that he was one step ahead and did not follow him.
Only then did Li Tian remember that he had no money, only mission points. He tentatively asked, "Are you collecting mission points?"
Unexpectedly, the uncle was not surprised at all, and quickly took out a communication device from his pocket, "Hold it, you get in the car first, just tell me where you are going."
After seeing the mission, Li Tian no longer hesitated and jumped directly into his rickshaw, and then said to him, "I'm going to Hengxi Village. Do you know where it is?"
Hearing this, the rickshaw man was surprised for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Hengxi Village? That haunted village? Classmate, why are you going there so late at night?"
Seeing that he knew, Li Tian hurriedly replied, "Uncle, it's good if you know. I'm going to rescue people. It's an emergency. I'll give you whatever money you want. Please hurry up." As he said this, he showed a very anxious look.
The rickshaw man understood, pulled up the car and left. "Money is a small matter, but it is more than forty miles from here. No matter how fast I walk, it will probably take nearly two hours to get there. I'll hurry up." I felt it.
Despite Li Tian's eagerness, he didn't waste any time and hurried on as fast as he could.
Sitting on a speeding rickshaw brought a different kind of scenery, with the wind whistling past his ears, and traveling among the lights and feasting at night, but Li Tian no longer had the slightest interest in enjoying it at this time.
"Uncle, I don't know if you know anything about Hengxi Village. Can you tell me about it?" He thought that since he wouldn't be there for a while, he would try his best to learn about groups like these rickshaw workers.
We will definitely chat with each other about gossip and the like in private.
The rickshaw man was panting slightly, and the white towel hanging around his neck jumped with his movements.
Seeing Li Tian's inquiry, he also shared the information he knew without hesitation: "In the past, Hengxi Village was not famous. It was just a wealthy man in the village who made a name for himself by doing business. Everyone had only heard about it, but now...
A few days ago, a big incident happened in their village. The rich house was the Washington House. Dozens of people in the whole family died suddenly overnight. The death scenes were really more miserable than the last. Some people were beheaded, and some were killed.
Their eyes were gouged out, and some even had their limbs cut off and hung on the beams of the house, which made the whole village panic. Alas, I don’t know what the grudge was because the whole family suffered from this murderous attack."
When the uncle talked about this, his expression was solemn, and he sighed from time to time, feeling that all the young and old in Washington were pitifully dead.
Li Tianguang felt a chill as he listened. Could that practitioner be so violent? His killing methods were so cruel.
"Didn't you say it's haunted? Where did this come from?" Li Tian asked curiously.
The uncle chuckled lightly, "They say it is haunted. They say that Washington used the same method to torture a woman to death before. This is why the innocent soul seeks her life. On the contrary, I don't believe in ghosts and gods."
Li Tian nodded. To be honest, he didn't believe it. In his mind, it was the mysterious cultivator who could kill such a woman overnight even if she died and turned into a ghost.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Too many people? Maybe you have to die again...
The uncle continued, "I'm afraid this matter has been reported to the task cabinet of your college? I heard in the afternoon that someone from your college has already passed by. Are you looking for them?"
Li Tian didn't expect that this rickshaw uncle actually knew so many things. He even knew about the mission pavilion in the college, and he actually had a liaison device. This was the most important thing.
"Yes, they went there in the morning, but something happened. I have to go and take a look. By the way, uncle, how do you know so much about our college? Did you get the liaison device again?" He asked all his doubts at once.
I came out and wanted to figure it out.
The uncle smiled and replied, "I have been pulling a rickshaw in your college for four years. Counting your current class, I have been in this class for the third time. I pull students from your college around every day. Let me say this today.
Let me tell you something tomorrow. After listening to it for so long, I know something about it. As for the liaison device, it is rented from your college. If you pay for it for a year, it will cost you 100 mission points, which is not expensive, hehe."
It turns out that the business of the School of Love has already come from outside. It’s really hard to choose what to eat...
"So that's it. I just came from other places, so I don't understand it." Li Tian said he understood.
The uncle has very good physical strength. He is only panting slightly after running for so long. His steps are also very steady. He can avoid potholes on the road in time every time. It is obvious that he is already very familiar with the roads in this city.
"Classmate, you have to be careful at night. It's very dangerous there now. The law enforcement team from Lingyun City has already been there. As a result, after so many days, there's still no solution. It means it's not that easy to solve. You'd better do it."
Call the seniors from your college, it will be safer that way." After running for a while, the uncle thought for a while and continued to say to Li Tian.
Of course, Li Tian also wanted to call for help and wanted to bring everyone in the school, but he didn't know many people, and they were all in the same class. It was helpless to come alone.
He shook his head slightly, sighed, and replied to the uncle, "Thank you for your concern, uncle. I just went to take a look. It would be best if I could save my classmates. If I can't save them, I won't take the risk."
of."
The uncle nodded when he heard this, "That's good. Don't blame me for talking too much. You are still children and you have to do things according to your ability."
"I will." Li Tian smiled slightly, not dissatisfied that he talked too much, and felt the sincere care in his tone, which brought him a touch of warmth in this cold night.
The two stopped talking to each other. Li Tian leaned against the sponge backrest of the rickshaw and looked up at the sky.
The slightly old rickshaw would make some squeaking sounds from time to time, and the sound of the uncle's footsteps reached his ears. It was the sound of certain parts that had been worn for a long time.
The rickshaw was still speeding, and the uncle seemed to be tired, pulling him desperately towards the destination ahead.
Today is the full moon, and the bright white moonlight shines down on the entire starry sky, making the entire earth look white and flawless.
They had arrived on a secluded path. There was a slight chirping of cicadas in the distant mountains and forests, and the clear chirping of frogs could be heard from the edge of the fields. They were intertwined with each other, just like the last trace of tranquility in the night.
