Chapter 25 Tragic

Chapter 25 Tragic

Crack!

The wood that was about to burn out made a loud roar.

The commander of the armor turned his head to look at Wei Tao, with a hint of chill in his eyes.

"Take it!"

He shouted loudly.

But faster than him,

It was a roaring barrage of iron caltrops.

puff!

Because the distance is really too close,

Wei Tao's movements were too subtle,

As a result, Shi Chang just spoke,

A piece of caltrop got into his mouth,

At the same time, several more hit the faceplate hard,

In an instant, the skin and flesh burst open,

Blood flowed down loudly.

Wow!

Wow!

Wei Tao didn't pause at all. He changed his hand and shot out two more caltrops, covering the sergeants on the left and right.

"Kill, kill him..."

Shi Chang covered his throat, and as soon as he opened his mouth, a large amount of blood poured out.

Canglanglang!

In an instant, the small cave was filled with flashes of swords and sparks flying everywhere.

The two swords struck Wei Tao's chest at the same time. The sergeant who took action was suddenly delighted. Before he could figure out why the guy didn't hide, the huge shock force transmitted from the sword made his wrist numb.

It felt like being chopped on an iron plate.

It was really chopped on the iron plate.

There was even a flash of dazzling sparks.

Bang bang bang bang!

Wei Tao's hands swelled violently, red as blood, and his fists were like two hammers, hitting the two soldiers' faces without any fancy.

Snapped!

It's like opening a dye shop, with red, yellow, and white flying everywhere in an instant.

Whoosh!

A soldier fired a crossbow.

It penetrated Wei Tao's clothes and entered his back.

However, the soldier's eyes widened suddenly. Seeing that he was fine, he turned around and rushed forward. His red fists, wrapped in a faint smell of blood, quickly enlarged in his sight.

"you……"

The soldier fell softly.

Before his eyes fell into darkness, he found to his disbelief that the guy was not just wearing heavy cotton clothes, but actually had a bloated and ugly armor hidden underneath.

In the flickering cave, the last soldier roared angrily and finally discovered the dark armor Wei Tao was wearing.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when he punched his companion, the sword in the soldier's hand suddenly changed direction, from a horizontal slash to a vertical slash, and struck Wei Tao hard on the head.

Click!

The blade of the blade broke open the surface of the felt hat, and a ball of sparks also exploded, and then bounced high.

The soldier's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide. He never thought that in addition to hiding a piece of dark armor under his clothes, this guy also had an iron plate on his head, hidden under the animal skin hat.

"Dare you hit me on the head!?"

Wei Tao turned around with a ferocious face.

……………………

The battle broke out in an instant and ended in just a few breaths.

Wei Tao gasped for breath, raised his hand to wipe away the remaining blood on his lips, and came to the only remaining armored commander.

"You, you can't kill me." Shi Chang said with difficulty, "I am Feng Lin..."

Chi!

The sword flashed and all the rest of his words were choked back into his mouth.

"Sorry, I'm too timid to know too many secrets."

Wei Tao threw away his long knife, looked at the corpse lying on the ground, and slowly sat down holding on to the stone wall.

His body felt like it had been trampled by a wild boar, and severe swelling and pain erupted, making him endure it again and again before he could groan.

Although these soldiers only had some rudimentary skills in transporting energy and blood, the swordsmanship and skilled and fierce coordination they used still caused him great trouble.

If this dark armor did not exist.

If it weren't for the hidden armor hiding in the clothes to confuse them, and the iron plate in the hat, I don't know what the final result would have been.

"We can't stay here any longer, and we can't go to Cold Water Pool either. We must leave immediately."

After resting for a moment and cleaning the blood on his face and hands, Wei Tao made an immediate decision and stood up.

Regardless of the fact that his body was still sending out signals of fatigue and pain, he put all the things that might reveal his information into his backpack.

"There are too many corpses to handle. I hope the smell of blood will attract the beasts in the mountains first, rather than other soldiers from Fenglin Army Town."

While he was thinking about it, he started to take action, first collecting the money from everyone.

Then use a knife to chop them beyond recognition, especially the places where they were punched by the red line, to prevent anyone from recognizing their roots.

After doing all this, he was about to leave, but he still felt a little uneasy.

Since we can meet a group of Feng Lin's troops here, we are very likely to encounter other Feng Lin's troops in the mountains and forests outside.

And judging from their murderous looks, if we encounter them again, I'm afraid it won't be able to end peacefully.

so……

Wei Tao looked at the various weapons scattered on the floor.

He looked over one by one, gritted his teeth after a moment, and stuffed the two crossbows into his backpack.

Then without stopping, he peeled off the largest piece of leather armor and took it into his hands.

Soon after, Wei Tao put out the fire and quickly walked out of the cave.

The strong smell of blood drifted out along the mountain wind, and there were already gleaming green spots of light looming in the darkness.

A mountain wolf tentatively emerged from the dense forest, and then more and more.

The instinct of the beast made the Wolf King feel that the guy with upright legs in front of him was not easy to mess with, but the temptation of blood food made him unwilling to leave, so he could only stop there and hesitate.

Plop!

A dark object was thrown over by a guy with upright legs. The wolf king was so frightened that he turned around and ran away. The wolves behind him also dispersed and hid far away.

A few seconds later, the wolf king smelled the sweet smell that was close at hand, turned back with great vigilance, and grabbed the severed hand on the ground in his mouth.

Silence returned to the surroundings, with only the crunching sounds of gnawing flesh and bones echoing in the forest.

Snap!

Soon another piece of meat was thrown over.

Then the third and fourth pieces.

Getting closer and closer to the cave.

The wolves were ready to move. In their eyes, the cave not far away was like an open honey pot, constantly exuding a charming fragrance.

"Little guy, these are late night snacks prepared for you guys. Come and eat them quickly. Don't be polite."

Wei Tao pointed to the cave behind him and quickly turned around and left.

……………………

The howl of the autumn wind is like a ghost crying in the dark mountain forest.

Wei Tao couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of water flowing not far away.

I have been on tenterhooks for so long, and now I am finally about to leave.

As long as you cross the mountain stream in front of you, you will soon reach the village at the foot of the mountain.

When the time comes, just change into some clothes and blend into the city with the crowd.

He didn't believe that Fenglin Military Town could find him again in the populous Cangyuan City.

Recalling the tragic corpses he saw from time to time in the mountains and forests, he still felt a little scared in his heart.

The dead included soldiers, Taoist priests, and some were wearing standard black and red official uniforms. At first glance, they were not stragglers in the world.

If these people are put together, it may not be a problem to sweep through the entire Cangyuan City.

But in this cold autumn night, they all ran to die in the vast mountains.

What worried Wei Tao even more was who was responsible for such killings.

Are they still hiding in the night?

At any time, a butcher knife covered in blood could be wielded towards him.

Wei Tao was considering whether to throw his armor and backpack directly into the mountain stream, but he suddenly stopped moving forward. He first lowered his body to hide it, and then looked up at the dense bushes on one side.

A small voice sounded from far away.

The icy mountain wind passed by at low altitude, mixed with the increasingly strong smell of blood.

Wei Tao took a deep breath, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.

He hesitated.

Or do you turn around and run?

It's better to hide it first and not show up.

However, his confusion did not last long.

Just after a few breaths, a slender figure walked out from behind the tree.

Like a female ghost wandering in the mountains, she appeared in front of him silently.

This is a young woman.

The white dress with holes in many places clung to her body, showing off her exquisite curves to the fullest.

Wei Tao's nose twitched a few times, and he also smelled a strong smell of blood from the woman.

It is even much richer than what comes from the forest.

She seemed to be injured, and the injury was serious.

After careful observation for a moment, the woman's hands, legs, and even her neck were abnormally twisted.

In other words, it is a miracle of life that she is still standing here.

The moon poked its head out from the gap in the dense clouds, spreading its dim moonlight over the mountains and forests.

Wei Tao's gaze extended.

Looking past the woman's body, he could vaguely see what seemed to be a large group of people lying behind.

Some of them were wearing armor and some were wearing Taoist robes. It was not known whether they were alive or dead.

The woman's face was as pale as snow and she looked at Wei Tao curiously.

In a tremblingly sharp tone, he said,

"You are not a Taoist soldier of the sect, nor a soldier of the military town, nor an elite guard of the patrol department."

"You are nothing, yet you dare to appear in this place at this time?"

"I'm just a hunter who collects herbs, so I don't quite understand what the girl is talking about." Wei Tao took off his backpack and put it in front of him, with a confused expression on his face.

The woman lowered her head and vomited a mouthful of blood. When she raised her head again, she showed a smile of pure joy like a little girl.

She stretched out her slender, jade-like palm, with several purple-gold fish scale-like objects on it.

Then he showed off like a child, "See, are they beautiful?"

"Very beautiful." Wei Tao nodded, not sure what she meant for a while.

"They are not only beautiful, but also very useful." Her smile became brighter, "I spent a lot of effort to get them."

Wei Tao said casually, "So, what are they used for?"

"I'm telling you, it..." She spit out another mouthful of blood, but this time she raised her hand without warning.

Then two black lights flew out and went straight to the middle gate of Wei Tao.

At the same time, or even earlier, a large number of iron caltrops were thrown out by Wei Tao, with two sleeve arrows mixed in between.

Different hidden weapons collided violently, and a ball of brilliant sparks exploded between the two of them.
