Junior Brother Wang lowered his head and said nothing, but stood still, as if he didn't want to go.
Senior Brother Zhang threatened: "Junior Brother Wang, as we have already agreed before coming here, you have also accepted the Qi Gathering Pill that Senior Brother Xu distributed to everyone. Isn't it too late to back off now?
If Senior Brother Xu knew that you accepted his Qi Gathering Pill and refused to work, what would he think?"
Junior Brother Wang said unwillingly: "Then why me?"
Another young man standing next to Senior Brother Zhang said impatiently, "You are the least cultivated among us. If you don't do errands, who will do it?"
Junior Brother Wang stamped his feet a few times and finally left.
Yi Wen, Yi Wu and Luo Keke lay on the big tree together and looked up at Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan made a silent gesture to signal them not to act rashly.
Gu Yuan took a closer look and found that except for Junior Brother Wang who had just left, the seven people under the tree were busy setting traps.
To make sure, they also painted a layer of black stuff on the bamboo arrows and also painted the ground thorns.
Gu Yuan thought it might be poison.
Yi Wu couldn't hold his breath and looked at Gu Yuan several times, but Gu Yuan shook his head.
Luo Keke was so sleepy that she rubbed her eyes and yawned. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold on and fall, so she finally tied herself to a branch with a cloth strap.
Junior Brother Wang never came back, and Senior Brother Zhang waited impatiently, so he called two other junior brothers to go to the front to check the situation.
After Senior Brother Zhang left, there were only four people left under the tree.
The four people did not stay together, but discussed it and hid separately.
One of the boys was hiding under Gu Yuan's tree.
Gu Yuan quietly slipped down the tree and touched the boy closest to him.
The young man felt something was wrong and looked up at the tree.
At this time, Gu Yuan had already come down, and he raised his hand and put a dagger on his neck.
He lowered his voice and said:
"Don't make a sound, or I will kill you!"
The young man nodded hurriedly, suppressing the fear in his heart and whispered: "Who are you?
Why are you in the tree?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. Let me ask you, why do you want to ambush Wu Ying here?"
"Brother, I don't know Wu Ying either.
It has nothing to do with me. This sneak attack was organized by Senior Brother Zhang.
I don’t know the specific situation either.”
"Does the Senior Brother Zhang you talk about have any grudge against Wu Ying?"
"He shouldn't have any grudge against Little Eagle. It's Senior Brother Xu who has grudge against Little Eagle. It was also Senior Brother Xu who hired us to kill Little Eagle.
I don’t know anything, I just received money to do things, this matter has nothing to do with me!”
Gu Yuan raised his arm slightly and hit the young man's head with the metal end of the dagger, knocking him unconscious.
If you want to eliminate this young man, if you smash the crystal token, a white light will wrap around him and teleport him out. The noise will be too great.
Then, like a ghost, Gu Yuan appeared next to the second young man who was ambushing him. After asking what he wanted to ask, he followed the same pattern and knocked the young man unconscious.
Soon, Senior Brother Zhang left four accomplices behind, and they were all knocked unconscious by Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan hid these four people in a big tree far away.
After destroying the traps and traps left by these people, he returned to the tree where he originally planned to sleep.
At this time, Luo Keke had fallen asleep, and Yi Wen and Yi Wu were still waiting for him. Gu Yuan gave a few simple instructions, telling them to stay in the tree and not come down.
After waiting for about a stick of incense, Senior Brother Zhang hurried back with his two junior brothers. Without saying a word, the three of them each found a big tree to hide behind, preparing to ambush the little eagle.
When Gu Yuan saw this posture, he knew that the little eagle was coming soon.
Sure enough, after waiting for no more than a stick of incense, three figures moved this way.
These three people are Junior Brother Wang, Wu Ying and Li Cheng.
"Junior Brother Wang, how far do we have to go?"
"Senior Brother Wu, don't worry, it's the woods ahead. We'll be there soon."
"Is Li Mingqi seriously injured?"
"I really don't know about this. Senior Brother Li didn't tell me. I think it's quite heavy.
Otherwise, Senior Brother Li would not ask me to come to you.
It's a coincidence that I actually met you not long after I walked."
When Junior Brother Wang said these words, his heart was pounding.
He was really afraid that the little eagle would expose him and kill him.
Fortunately, Wu Ying was worried about Li Mingqi's injury, so he just kept his head on the road and didn't ask any more questions.
Although he was scared, Junior Brother Wang also understood that Senior Brother Zhang wanted to kill the little eagle when he did this. No matter how powerful the little eagle is while he is alive, there is nothing to be afraid of when he dies.
Junior Brother Wang led the way, and by now they were almost reaching the edge of the woods, with Wu Ying and Li Cheng following behind.
Hearing Junior Brother Wang's words, Licheng suddenly frowned, pulled Wu Ying, and used his eyes to warn Junior Brother Wang to be careful.
Wu Ying quickly reacted and felt something was wrong.
He looked at his surroundings vigilantly. He always felt that something was about to happen, but he didn't know what it was.
Apart from anything else, in such a huge secret realm, trying to find someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It seems to be a coincidence that Junior Brother Wang found him.
But with Junior Brother Wang's cultivation level, if you want to deceive him, you are simply asking for trouble. Whether inside or outside the secret realm, Wu Ying can beat him to the ground. Wu Ying really can't think of it.
What motive does Junior Brother Wang have to lie to him?
Besides, Li Mingqi is Wu Ying's confidant and his right-hand man.
Now that Wu Ying got the news that Li Mingqi was injured, there was no way he could ignore it. Even at the risk of being deceived, he would not give up on Li Mingqi as long as there was one percent chance.
Seeing that they were about to enter the forest, the three of them were already standing at the edge of the forest. Wu Ying suddenly stopped and stopped moving forward.
When Junior Brother Wang heard that Wu Ying was not leaving, he turned around and said, "Senior Brother Wu, hurry up, Li Mingqi is right in front!"
"I won't go into this forest. You go and call Li Mingqi out!"
"This...Senior Brother Wu, Senior Brother Li is seriously injured and can't walk. You'd better come with me. In fact, it's not that far ahead."
Li Cheng suddenly interrupted: "Didn't you just say that you didn't know the severity of Li Mingqi's injury?
Why do you say he is seriously injured now?"
"That, that... that's because..." Junior Brother Wang stammered and was speechless.
Junior Brother Wang stammered for a long time and couldn't think of a good excuse.
Wu Ying and Li Cheng were waiting for Junior Brother Wang's explanation with stern faces. Who would have thought that Junior Brother Wang suddenly pointed behind Wu Ying and said, "Look, who is that?"
Then, while Wu Ying and Li Cheng were fooled and turned to look behind them, Junior Brother Wang ran wildly and ran directly back to the woods.
Junior Brother Wang knew that Senior Brother Zhang and his six disciples were ambushing here. It was not until he ran into the woods that Junior Brother Wang felt at ease.
