Half an hour later, Sulet ambushed Gu Yuan and the others on the mountain road they must pass on their way back to Scarlet Flame City.
Before Gu Yuan and the others arrived, a passerby was waited for by Sulet.
Soon, a piercing howl came from the mountain road.
"Ah, help!"
"Crack!"
"ah!"
Surratt kicked the opponent in the ribs, and the sound of bones being dislocated was heard instantly.
This man's name is Qin Fei, and he also came to Rogge Underground City to participate in the auction. He was also the one who laughed at Sulet just now.
By coincidence, Surratt met him on this mountain road.
"Su, Su Yingxiong, you really misunderstood. I definitely didn't laugh at you at the auction house just now!"
"Where's Gu Yuan?
Where did he go?"
"ah?
I don’t know, I haven’t paid attention to the three of them.”
The screams sounded again, and Qin Fei kept kowtowing with a cry.
"Ah! Stop fighting, stop fighting, I said, I said... I saw the young man who was with Gu Yuan, holding a maid in his arms, shopping for something on the basement floor. According to my estimation, they should buy something at this time.
It’s done, yes, they should be arriving soon.”
"Click..."
Sulet kicked Qin Fei's head to pieces.
He found Qin Fei's treasure bag from the dead Qin Fei's body, then flew up and kicked Qin Fei's body into the grass.
"quack……"
A big black bird hovered in the sky. After seeing Surratt, it stopped and landed on his shoulder.
"Dahei, how was your investigation?"
"Quack, quack..."
Sulet stretched out his hand and stroked Dahei's feathers,
A creepy sneer appeared on his skull-like face.
"how?
Are they coming now?
It’s okay, I’m really getting a little impatient with waiting.”
Then, Surratt raised his hand and waved, and a thick black mist suddenly appeared and enveloped Surratt.
Sutler's figure became fainter and fainter. He slowly walked behind a big tree and soon disappeared behind the tree, blending into the shadow of the big tree.
…
Gu Yuan and the others knew nothing about this. They were walking on the mountain road talking and laughing, planning to climb over the mountain before it got dark.
"I thought that Sulet would be waiting for us at the entrance of Rogge Underground City, but I didn't expect that there was even a trace of him, which made me nervous for nothing."
"Yeah, I didn't meet him at the door. I thought he would stop us halfway, but we didn't see him even after we walked so far. I guess he has already left."
"He is at the pinnacle of foundation building. We can barely draw even if we go against each other three times."
"Little Eagle, I find that you are getting thicker and thicker. Only Gu Yuan among the three of us is in the late stage of foundation building, and I am only in the early stage of foundation building.
Let’s face reality, the three of us can’t defeat him at all! What’s more, he is still an evil cultivator, who knows how many tricks he has?”
"Fortunately, he left early, otherwise it would have been a fierce fight to the death. It's hard to say who will win by then."
"Hey, Gu Yuan, why don't you leave?"
"It smells of blood..."
The little eagle stopped and looked around casually. It was very empty all around, with only a few lonely big trees, and a big black bird squatting on one of the trees.
"Don't be so nervous. There are only a few big trees here and they can't hide anyone."
"Don't you think it's too quiet here?"
Li Cheng said: "No, why does this big black bird keep staring at us?"
Gu Yuan drew out the Yulin Sword with a solemn expression and raised his hand to make a retreat gesture.
The three of them looked at each other and slowly backed away together.
At this moment, the big black bird suddenly spread its wings and swooped towards Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan did not retreat but moved forward, slashing at the big black bird with his sword. The big black bird immediately rose into the air and dodged the Yulin Sword.
"quack!"
The big black bird screamed angrily, circled in the air, and dived towards Gu Yuan again.
Gu Yuan turned sideways to avoid it. The big black bird had already flown past, but it turned back and stretched out its big claws to grab Gu Yuan's head.
Gu Yuan raised his sleeve arrow and fired an arrow. The big black bird flew into the air at high speed, but its leg was scratched by the sleeve arrow, leaving a big gash and bleeding.
If it hadn't run so fast, I could have disemboweled it in just a few seconds.
The big black bird suffered a big loss. It shrank its legs in pain, flapped its wings and stared at Gu Yuan viciously.
"quack!"
The big black bird screamed and tried to rush over again.
At this moment, Surratt suddenly shouted.
"Dahei, come back!"
Gu Yuan and the other three were stunned and looked at a big tree together.
Surratt's voice came from behind this big tree.
But the three of them were very confused because there was nothing behind the big tree.
"Hehe, you're quite alert!"
Surratt's voice was hoarse and cold.
After saying that, Surratt's figure gradually became clearer, and he stepped back from the big tree and walked out.
Li Cheng was almost stunned when he saw it, and the little eagle said excitedly: "This is a ninjutsu used by evil cultivators to disguise themselves, turning illusion into reality, and is specially used for sneak attacks."
Surratt rolled his eyes and sneered: "Young man, you are really knowledgeable. Since you are already here, don't leave and stay here!"
The little eagle suddenly took out a thunderbolt and threw it at Surratt, and at the same time shouted: "Run!"
The thunderbolt exploded instantly, and the surrounding area was filled with smoke after the explosion.
"Run quickly, run to the woods over there!"
Surratt tried to disperse the smoke while waving his hands, while shouting: "Don't run, everyone stop!"
Waiting for him were several more thunderbolts.
Surratt was so anxious that he recited a spell, then raised his hand, and a long black whip flew towards the direction of the three of them.
Unfortunately, the long whip was drawn too late and was in vain. Gu Yuan and the others ran faster than rabbits and disappeared.
Sulet took out a crow corpse from his treasure bag and muttered something. Soon, the crow came to life, flapping its wings and flying in the direction where Gu Yuan left.
…
Gu Yuan and the other three did not separate, but ran towards the woods together.
The three of them together could not defeat Surratt. If they were separated again, they would simply be seeking death.
An hour later, the three exhausted brothers gathered under a big tree to rest.
The little eagle sat on the ground with its back against the big tree, took out a water hyacinth and took a gulp of water.
"I'm exhausted. I'm tired and hungry. I really can't run anymore."
"I said, we should have run out, right?
If we run so fast, he will definitely not be able to catch up."
The little eagle took out the beef jerky from the treasure bag and gave it to Gu Yuan and Li Cheng.
"Let's eat something first."
Li Cheng took the beef jerky and said while eating: "Does any of you know the way?
Where is this?
I suspect we are lost."
At this moment, a crow squatting on the tree suddenly spoke in human language: "Jie Jie, a dying person does not need to know the way!"
The little eagle got up and said, "Damn it, it's Surratt's voice! This bastard is still following us!"
"It's not Surratt. He didn't come. It was the crow who spoke just now!"
"That crow was controlled by his evil magic. Kill that crow quickly!"
Gu Yuan raised his arm and shot out an arrow from his sleeve.
The crow was shot by the sleeve arrow, fell from the tree and died.
