Chapter 25 People are not idle, the flowers are falling
The grass is green, the creek is winding, the water is crystal clear, and the aquatic plants and fish are very lively.
Yin Xuege squatted helplessly by the stream, watching the old man crawling beside the stream and drinking greedily.
Two men in suits stood expressionless, looking around with crossbows in their hands. Yin Xuuge glanced at them from time to time, feeling that the two men gave him a very strange feeling, and he always felt that they were not living creatures.
Three hours ago, in the black pine forest, the old man grabbed him.
The vitality of heaven and earth around Yin Xuuge's body suddenly turned into shackles, tightly imprisoning his whole body. No matter how hard he struggled, he was unable to move at all.
Once the body is tempered successfully, the physical strength can reach a level of one cauldron.
If all the acupoints are opened, without mentioning the vitality of the acupoints, the physical strength alone can reach a hundred tripods, which is called a mountain.
Inhaling and swallowing the essence of the sun and moon, the yin and yang qi of the surrounding sky temper the vitality of the physical body. Not to mention the power of the vitality of the acupoints, the physical strength alone can reach hundreds of mountains, which is called a river.
The essence of the sun is hot and masculine, making the body and vitality strong and strong; the essence of taiyin is feminine and lingering, making the body and vitality flexible and refined. The two qi of taiyin and sun temper all the acupoints, meridians, internal organs, skin and flesh of the meridians, and attract the qi of the five elements of heaven and earth.
From then on, the internal organs were flat on the ground and the blue clouds were on the ground. The so-called soaring into the clouds and riding on the mist, they became transcendent from ordinary people.
Swallowing the moon, devouring the sun, soaring into the clouds and driving the mist. When a Qi practitioner reaches this level, his physical body alone has the power of at least one river and the strongest of hundreds of rivers.
The physical body of a Qi Refiner is only an auxiliary, just the foundation to withstand the impact of vitality. The most powerful thing about a Qi Refiner lies in the use of vitality and the infinite secrets contained in the acupoints. Each of the various techniques has its own mystery, and the small orifices of the human body
There are too many and complicated articles that can be written.
The old man is already a strong man who can soar in the clouds and mist, and his physical strength alone can be calculated as the strength of several "rivers".
Yin Xuege's mere physical strength of ten cauldrons and eight cauldrons of vitality power were like a baby in front of the old man.
The invisible shackles of vitality tied him tightly. Under the drag of the old man, Yin Xuuge was suspended in the air and dragged all the way here.
It's hundreds of miles away from the black pine forest just now.
Apparently the old man, who was bleeding profusely, couldn't bear it any longer. He hesitated and observed the stream for a long time, and then he lay down by the water's edge and drank large gulps of water to replenish his energy.
"The drops of blood and the threads of clothing in the river valley just now were left behind intentionally by senior?"
Along the way, the more Yin Xuuge thought about it, the more something was wrong. The old man could already fly. If he was alone and struggling on the ground after being seriously injured, it would be understandable to leave those traces.
But since he can fly in the air, and there are two enigmatic followers guarding him, he should not leave such traces in the river valley. If someone is really chasing after him, follow those traces, and follow the traces.
Tracking forward along the river valley will eventually lead you in the opposite direction, and you will get further and further away from the old man.
Because Yin Xuuge stayed far away from the direction pointed by the blood stains and intentionally stayed away, but instead bumped into the old man head-on.
"You do have some knowledge."
The old man wiped the water stains around his mouth and muttered while panting.
Without even looking at Yin Xuuge, the old man looked worriedly at the two middle-aged men who had expressionless faces but occasionally panted.
Two well-dressed men were holding magical weapons and crossbows, standing aside as steady as mountains. Under the sun, their skin reflected a healthy luster, their eyes were calm and bright, and their breath, although heavy, was long and powerful.
Their chests rose and fell, and you could hear the powerful beating of their hearts in their chests.
After running rapidly for a long time, their hearts still beat at a stable frequency without any change.
The sound of their blood...
Yin Xuuge raised his head in shock and looked at the old man.
These two middle-aged men were holding crossbows. There was only the sound of heartbeats in their bodies, but no sound of blood flowing through their blood vessels.
Their breathing sounds seem normal at first glance. However, there is no echo from their lungs as they should. The air they swallowed into their bodies seemed to disappear without a trace and was swallowed up by their bodies in one gulp.
"The boy has some eyesight."
With a face like a silver basin and an extraordinary handsomeness, the old man, who must have been a handsome man in his youth, smiled strangely.
With a hint of self-deprecation, the old man pointed at the two well-dressed men.
"They are not human beings. They are flesh-and-blood puppets made by the old man himself."
Grinning, the old man shook his head slightly.
"I have fallen to such a state, my family has been destroyed, and everyone has betrayed me. They are the only ones who really follow me."
"I once responded to everyone's call, once the house was filled with friends, and once I gave the order to massacre the city and exterminate the clan, it was just a trivial matter."
"I didn't expect that today, I only have two soul-flesh puppets with me. In this world, people's hearts are actually worse than dead things."
Holding powerful crossbows, they stood as steady as a mountain and scanned the surroundings with keen eyes. The two men in strong suits were still breathing deeply.
With every breath, a huge amount of heaven and earth energy poured into their bodies. Their hearts were beating powerfully. Yin Xuege could imagine that their hearts were like huge furnaces, turning the heaven and earth energy into infinite power and transporting it throughout their bodies.
The blood vessels in their bodies transport not blood, but energy transformed from the vitality of heaven and earth. No wonder they can't hear the sound of blood flow.
However, their physical characteristics were just like those of ordinary people, and they even had sweat slowly oozing out. Yin Xuege looked at them for a long time before he realized that they seemed to be a little different from ordinary people. Such methods and puppets were truly terrifying and deplorable.
Compared with these two big men, the magic stone puppets in the Yin family manor are really just a pile of dead stones.
"Senior is such a person, why bother this kid?"
Yin Xuuge could only smile helplessly. He looked at the old man pretending to be pitiful and begged for mercy in a low voice.
"You are useful."
The old man's eyes flickered, he stood up and looked around the mountains and forests, listening carefully.
"The boy has a humble status and is a hostage. I am afraid that the people who are chasing my senior will not care about the boy's life or death."
Yin Xuege smiled helplessly.
This old guy said he was useful? What use could he be? As a hostage? This is simply ridiculous.
The unheard-of spirit-flesh puppet, with terrifying strength at the pinnacle of Weinan County, could hunt down such an old guy into such a embarrassing situation. God knows where his enemy came from.
He is just a dispensable little character in the Weinan Yin family, someone who can be destroyed easily. Who would care about him?
"Young man, don't belittle yourself."
The old man glanced at Yin Xuuge with a smile and threw a small medicine bottle over.
"There is a pill in it, a small gadget, not worth much."
"Don't be afraid. If I take you as a hostage, I won't do anything else."
"I'll keep you as a backup. If I escape from this mountain forest, I need a place to recuperate."
The old man smiled brightly, his eyes fixed on Yin Xuuge.
"Is it not difficult for an elite child from a small Weinan family to hide a lonely old man in his family?"
Smile bitterly. Smile bitterly again, and smile bitterly again.
Besides a wry smile, what else could Yin Xuuge say?
His house is very large, and it is always easy to accommodate forty or fifty people. Under the house, there are secret rooms to store belongings and various private items. It is even easier to hide three or five elderly people.
The problem is...
"I will take you in. Will the Yin family in Weinan be destroyed?"
Yin Xuuge smiled bitterly again and again and looked at the old man.
The old man tore open his clothes, revealing dozens of wounds that were deep enough to reach the bones or hurt internal organs.
Applying a purple-red transparent ointment to the wound, and tightening it with a silver-white bandage with a hint of sparkle, the old man breathed a sigh of relief and took two pills. He looked at Yin Xuuge with a half-smile,
He shook his head slightly.
"Now, shouldn't you be worried about your own life and death?"
Rubbing her nose, Yin Xuuge laughed bitterly for the first time.
"Boy, I only have a strong sense of clan. The Yin family in Weinan is my foundation, how can I be wrong?"
This is a bit contrary to one's will, but Yin Xuege said it very righteously. If the Yin family's princes were present, they would definitely be moved to tears.
"Clan concept? Fundamental?"
The old man was silent. He gathered up the scattered fabrics on the ground and stuffed a green ring on his finger with countless talismans carved on it.
Yin Xuuge's eyes suddenly lit up. In the old man's hand was definitely a large-capacity storage ring.
There is a leather storage bag on his waist. But this leather bag has a small capacity. How much can it hold in a one-foot-square space?
Sixteen years and three months later, this was the first time he saw a high-end storage magic weapon in this world.
The old man carefully cleaned up the blood stains on the ground. From a large iron can, he poured out a pungent-smelling concoction, which should be extracted from some kind of grass and vine, and sprinkled it on the ground. The pungent smell of grass juice quickly faded away.
The scent of the surrounding vegetation blended in, and the smell of blood in the air was completely covered up.
"I am a person without roots."
The old man stood up and gave Yin Xuuge a stern and cold look.
After being silent for a long time, he suddenly smiled heartily. It was not the graceful and luxurious smile that a hundreds-year-old man should have, but the smile of a young, energetic, arrogant and talented man, a young hero.
The kind of smile that is high-spirited, wearing bright clothes and an angry horse, riding fast to see all the flowers in Spring City in one day.
Opening his arms, the old man laughed loudly.
"However, I finally remembered what my name was."
"Red Flame Sky Palace, Fire Shura."
"I am Fire Shura, baby, remember this name."
The old man who called himself Fire Shura laughed loudly, and suddenly a large flock of birds flew up in the silent mountain forest. These were the little birds that were startled by his laughter.
In the dense jungles far and near, there are more than a million golden thrushes that are no bigger than a thumb. The densely packed golden thrushes with intertwined silver stripes flew into the sky, screaming "Qing Qing Qing Qing Qing" all over the sky, covering the mountains and forests for miles.
They were all covered in black flocks of birds.
"Here, here!"
Amidst the shouts of joy, several young men from the Yin family in Weibei, dressed in fancy clothes, rushed in quickly.
They ignored the fire Shura who looked up to the sky and smiled, and ignored the flesh-and-blood puppet holding a magic weapon and a powerful crossbow. They just stared at Yin Xuege.
"Yin Xuege, haha, we are always the first to find you."
"We have been looking for you for more than half a month. Killing you will be a great achievement."
"Kill him and get five acupuncture pills. This credit cannot be given to others."
A total of four young men from the Yin family in Weibei gathered together, armed with heavy knives, long swords, spears, and crossbows, and rushed towards them in a strict formation.
There were still hundreds of steps away, and the Weibei boy holding a strong bow had already fired six arrows, like locusts, shooting down this way.
Huo Shura shook his head and smiled. He held his right hand empty, and six long arrows suddenly changed direction and flew into his hand.
He flicked his fingers, and the alloy arrows shot back with a harsh whistling sound. The four Weibei teenagers howled miserably, and the arrows passed through their bodies, instantly killing all their chances of life.
"You alone are enough."
Huo Shura smiled and looked at Yin Xuege, whose face was pale.
"We only need one hiding place. If we take them away, we will leave too many traces."
Yin Xuege shook his head gently, turned his head with difficulty, and looked at a cliff a few miles behind him.
The cliff is green, and an old peach blossom tree grows on the top of the cliff. The temperature in the mountains has been warming up slowly, and it is not until these days that these old peach blossoms feel the warm spring breeze outside the mountain. The peach blossoms on the trees are blooming brilliantly.
The west-slanting sun shines on the cliff, and the pink peach blossoms turn as red as fire.
The mountain wind blew by, and the pink petals, covered with the blood-like red light of the setting sun, fell from the cliff one after another.
The petals fell like rain, falling silently into the pool formed by the streams under the cliff, even giving people a feeling of tranquility and tranquility.
That water pool is formed by the gathering of small streams where Fire Shura drinks water from his mouth.
The water in the pool is green and smooth as a mirror, and little flower petals fall on the water, causing very slight ripples.
The water surface swayed slightly, and the figures reflected in the water swayed accordingly.
There were twenty-four people in total, all of whom were wearing bloody costumes, wearing bloody leather boots, and bloody pointed hats. Their faces were covered by smooth blood-colored masks, and their appearance could not be seen clearly. Their eyes were inlaid with black crystals.
The stone-ground lenses, blood-colored mask, and black eye sockets exude a violent and terrifying aura.
Their palms were also tightly wrapped in blood-colored fist armor, and their entire bodies, except for their long flowing hair and eye lenses, which were black, were all bloody.
The color of blood is arrogant and unbridled, the color of ferocious blood, the color of sticky and rolling blood like lava, the color of boiling and crazy blood like the color of poisonous snakes.
They stepped on the light clouds and floated on the tops of the peach blossom trees.
So all the peach blossoms on the cliffs were taken away by them, but the blood on the twenty-four people seemed to fill the entire Sijue Mountains. The sky and the earth turned into a vast expanse of blood, and the air seemed to have turned into thick plasma, making people suffocating.
Unable to breathe in.
When the blood came into his eyes, Yin Xuuge's heart began to beat violently. His heart beat faster and faster, and gradually his eyes began to turn black and dizzy. These people, who are they?
Are they the ones chasing Fire Shura?
When these people emerged from the cliff, they made no attempt to conceal their aura.
From several miles away, Yin Xuuge could smell the pungent smell of blood on their bodies.
Not really a taste, but a feeling.
The smell of blood on these people is so strong, even from such a distance, it seems to penetrate into the body, into the bone marrow, and into the soul. The smell of blood is suffocating, making you breathless from body to soul.
Huo Shura stopped laughing, turned around and looked at those people.
His voice became very soft and helpless, even with a hint of melancholy and the desolate beauty after the curtain call of a big play.
"It came so fast. I thought I had thrown you away."
Huo Shura's voice was very soft and low, but those people heard it clearly.
One person's voice was very soft and gentle, and even responded to Huo Shura with a touch of affection.
"You did get rid of the other groups of people, but who made us more numerous?"
"King Luo, in order to kill you, we dispatched one hundred and twenty groups of people. These are just people who went into the mountains to hunt you down."
"Outside the mountain, all the powerful people from the Three Prefectures Law Offices have been dispatched. After you enter the mountain, it is not easy to be able to hold on for two days and three nights."
Just as Huo Shura was about to speak, Yin Xuege started yelling.
"Seniors, I am a hostage taken hostage by this old man. Seniors, help me!"
Huo Shura's body moved slightly, and a ray of cold light shot out from several miles away, swirling around Yin Xuege.
The crunching sound was sharp and unpleasant, but Yin Xuege saw it clearly. In the cold light was a piece of gear the size of a palm, with extremely sharp edges and densely packed with hundreds of sharp teeth. The gear rotated at a high speed that made him jaw-dropping.
The loud sound shook all the vegetation within a ten-foot radius around him to pieces.
The gears flew rapidly around him in circles, bringing up a strong wind and raising large amounts of smoke and dust.
A man in blood sneered, his tone extremely cold.
"King Luo, you just killed those four teenagers, and we had no time to stop you."
"But if you dare to touch this doll now, it will not be easy if you want to die quickly."
Yin Xuuge's heart moved slightly. Listening to the tone of these blood-clothed men, it seemed that they wanted to protect him?
Not only themselves, but also the four young men from the Yin family in Weibei, they all intended to rescue them, but they were just too late to rescue them?
Huo Shura spread his hands and sighed deeply.
"I had no intention of killing the doll. I captured him just to ask for a possible hiding place."
"It can't be hidden. When we entered the mountain, all the law officials in the counties and cities under the three states were mobilized."
"King Luo, don't waste everyone's time and capture us without mercy. Let you die quickly."
The gears were flying around Yin Xuege in circles. Huo Shura looked at the men in blood-clothed clothes. He laughed strangely, suddenly rose into the air, and struck Yin Xuege with a palm.
"I had no intention of killing him, but now...kill him!"
The terrifying power struck directly, and a group of weird crimson runes gushed out from Fire Shura's palm. The vitality of the surrounding world surged crazily, and a rolling heat wave hit. The nearby mountains and forests were scorched and discolored, and then a large number of ancient trees could not withstand the high temperature and burned.
stand up.
Countless ancient trees burned like torches, and the surroundings were filled with flames. The warm spring forest suddenly turned into a sea of fire and hell.
The whirling gears brought out a strange roar, which turned into a ray of cold light and shot toward Fire Shura's heart.
Yin Xuuge turned his body, and all the Yin Feng energy from the acupoints on his legs spurted out instantly. He used all his strength to transform into the wind, trying to escape from Fire Shura's control.
The grass grew and withered all around, and fires burned.
Fire Shura was like a demon in fire, arriving in front of him in a flash with desperate killing intent.
The right hand is like a cattail leaf fan, the red palm brings out a ray of fire, and hits Yin Xuege's heart heavily.
The rapidly rotating gears screamed and pierced through Fire Shura's heart and out from behind his heart. The sharp saw teeth brought up large pieces of flesh and blood, and countless broken bones could be seen spraying out from behind him.
Huo Shura didn't seem to feel any pain. He looked at Yin Xuege wholeheartedly, looking at him with all his concentration.
