A figure suddenly flashed across a side road, and the shining long knife looked particularly eye-catching under the illumination of the moonlight.
My footsteps passed through the fallen leaves on the ground, but I didn't hear any sound.
It wasn't until they reached an open space that they saw more than ten masked men chasing a man with a sword.
The man was wounded in the arm and ran all the way, the blood on his arm falling on the ground, until he was chased by more than ten people.
Now, he is like a bereaved dog, reaching the point of life and death.
"Ding!"
A jingle sounded.
The swordsman grabbed the iron rope hanging from the cliff.
"ah!"
He exerted force with one hand, clenched his tooth crown, and stepped on the cliff wall with one foot to run up.
More than ten people were chasing him here, and they were all shocked when they saw this scene.
"Don't let him get away!"
"Follow me!"
Someone grabbed the chain and ran up.
In just a moment, three people climbed up the chain. Someone quickly caught up and slashed at the swordsman's leg with a long sword.
"roll!"
The swordsman roared and slashed with his sword.
"ah!"
A scream sounded out, and the person below covered his eyes, lost his strength in his hands, and fell down, taking the two people below him with him.
As a result, the chain began to shake.
Fortunately, the swordsman has arrived at the cave entrance.
His eyes turned cold, and he slashed at the iron rope with his sword!
Suddenly I saw sparks flying in the night.
"Ding!"
One sword after another, the swordsman swung his sword again.
"He wants to cut off the iron rope and stop him!"
Suddenly a roar was heard below, and immediately someone grabbed the chain and chased him upwards.
The swordsman became more and more anxious. If his right arm had not been injured, how could he be like this? He couldn't even cut the iron rope.
"ah!!!"
The swordsman roared and used all his strength to deliver the final blow.
The iron rope snapped at the sound.
The swordsman breathed a long sigh of relief, glanced down, then got into the hole and entered the Yuanchuan River from the other side.
"Let him run away!"
"Take Changguan Road and enter Yuanchuan. I still don't believe where he could have run away even though he was seriously injured!"
"Chase!"
Quiet and silent at night.
A figure evaded the officials in the city and sneaked into the city.
Finally, the swordsman found a dilapidated courtyard in the city and hid in it.
But you can't stay here for long. The more uninhabited the yard is, the more likely you will be found.
He panted, took a short rest, dealt with the injury on his shoulder, and then hurriedly left, looking for another place to stay.
"I wish I, Ouyang Feng, would have this day..."
The swordsman laughed to himself.
He knew that he was about to face a dead end. Several forces in the world were chasing him, and there was almost nowhere to escape, but even so, he had to take a gamble.
That's why he traveled thousands of miles to come to Qingshan City to find that glimmer of opportunity.
………
Lihua woke up at night.
Chen Changsheng had already rested. Ruyi was busy with the embroidery workshop and did not go home tonight. Lihua was not sleepy and was lying on the wall of the yard looking around.
But vaguely, I heard movement.
Someone walked into the alley.
Lihua was thinking about what happened during the day, and when she heard the noise, she immediately came back to her senses.
Looking around, I saw several people in black clothes walking into the alley.
It’s someone I’ve never seen before!
I only heard one of them say: "Don't let go of any yard! Remember not to wake up the owner, otherwise the government will investigate and it will be difficult for us to leave the city!"
"yes."
Li Hua looked around and saw someone jumping up along the wall and falling into the courtyard of Ruyi's house.
It's eyes widened immediately, and then it called out.
"Meow!!"
A sharp cat meow sounded in the night.
Suddenly, everyone inside and outside the courtyard was shocked.
"Where did the wild cat come from?"
One of them snorted coldly, and then Li Hua saw a blade of light passing by.
'He wants to kill me!'
The hair on Li Hua's body exploded, and she jumped to avoid this murderous intention.
"Meow!!"
There was another fierce cat meow.
The civet flower stood on the wall, and the clearness in her eyes suddenly became a bit more ruthless.
It jumped down and came to the alley in front of the courtyard.
Lihua seemed to be provoking them, not even looking at them, and silently licking her paws.
The people outside the courtyard raised their eyebrows and said, "Kill this troublesome wild cat!"
Several people rushed forward.
The sword's light and shadow immediately flashed in Lihua's eyes.
It jumped up and jumped along the wall, but suddenly turned around, revealing its claws and grabbing at the person behind it.
"Stab it!"
A sound of tattered clothes sounded.
But in the blink of an eye, one of them was scratched with blood on his back, and his clothes were cut open, revealing the flesh and blood scratched by his claws.
Along with a scream, everyone was shocked.
The man touched his back, was startled again, and said: "The soft armor is broken!"
"Are you kidding?!"
How can a cat break through soft armor with its claws?
The man looked solemn and said: "It is indeed broken, this is not an ordinary wild cat!!"
Everyone looked around and saw the cat leaping onto the wall in one swift step.
It looked down at the people in the alley and shook its paws in disgust.
So dirty...
"Useless thing! Get out of the way!"
The leader stood up with a knife in his hand. It was embarrassing to hear that the assassin of the Blood Knife Sect was actually stopped by a wild cat.
The sword light passed by again, and just when he thought he had succeeded, he saw the cat's figure suddenly flash and disappear on the wall.
As soon as I turned my head, I suddenly felt a chill rising from my eyes.
He quickly turned his head.
"Stab it..."
The claws scratched from his ears to his chin, leaving three blood marks, and the blood surged outward, ferocious and terrifying.
The man who just now took a few steps back quickly, touched the claw marks on his face and took a few deep breaths.
Almost, almost...
If he hadn't escaped at the critical moment, he might have died today!
"What the hell is this!"
The raccoon flower appeared on the wall again. It looked at the people below, then turned its head slightly, as if it didn't care about them at all.
At this moment, a person suddenly stood up from behind and blocked the leader.
I just heard him say something to the cat on the wall.
"I have offended many people this time. I hope you don't mind. I will leave immediately and will never do it again."
The person next to him was stunned for a moment and asked: "What are you doing!?"
The injured man was very dissatisfied. He was now murderous and had to cut the wild cat into pieces.
The man raised his eyebrows and said, "This matter is not trivial. I will explain it later when I go out."
In such a big world, there are always people who have seen some ghosts and monsters. He had already made a guess when he saw that the cat could scratch through soft armor. Now that he saw the cat's tilted head, he completely understood it in his heart.
This is no ordinary cat.
They may have encountered a monster today!
Li Hua glanced at them and suddenly felt a little bored, so she returned to the yard.
The people outside the alley retreated one after another and left the alley.
Until we get to another place.
Everyone in the group was puzzled, and some were secretly thinking about what the fuss was about.
The person who had just stopped everyone said, "Don't even think about going back! What we encountered just now was probably some kind of wild cat, but a monster!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly came to their senses.
Suddenly, there was a chill in my back, and I felt a little fear in my heart.
"In my early years, when I was not yet in the Blood Knife Sect, I encountered a snake demon that had become a spirit in the mountains. More than ten people in the caravan were swallowed alive by the snake demon. I was lucky enough to escape and survive. Everything has changed.
I saw it with my own eyes, not from hearsay.”
The man looked solemn and said: "Whether we can beat the cat monster or not, or whether it is a real monster, we'd better not offend these ghosts and monsters, and don't show off our power for a while, otherwise we will die no matter what.
