The four of them, Lu Xueqi, Fa Xiang, Lin Jingyu and Zeng, slowly landed on a huge messy tree trunk. They saw cracks all around and countless broken branches. Even after a long time, they still made people think of the two ancient giants just now.
The fight between beasts is shocking and moving.
But at this moment, their attention was obviously more focused on the people in front of them.
Fa Xiang frowned slightly and was silent. He had seen these people before him during the battle between Liubo Mountain and Qingyun Mountain in the East China Sea. They were obviously the leader of the Ghost King Sect, the Ghost King, and his two capable men Qinglong, Youji, and
Coupled with the fact that Gui Li is no longer what he used to be, it can be said that his strength is far superior to his own.
It's a pity that after climbing the tree, at the fork, I separated from Xiao Yicai of Qingyun Sect, Li Xun, Yan Hong and others from Fenxiang Valley. Otherwise, although I might not be able to defeat these four people, I would still have the strength to fight.
But thinking this way, the Ghost King Sect didn't seem to have any intention of taking action immediately.
The four Dharma ministers from the Gui Dynasty glanced at Gui Li for a moment, then asked Gui Li calmly: "Tell me, how should we deal with these people?"
Gui Li did not answer immediately, but looked at the Ghost King. He saw the Ghost King's face was kind and seemed peaceful, but there was a faint flash of sharpness in his eyes. After a moment, he said lightly: "Since you are here, Sect Master, naturally
All matters are decided by the sect leader."
Qinglong standing next to him frowned slightly, and the black gauze on You Ji's face seemed to be shaking slightly as he looked towards Gui Li.
The Ghost King's face did not change much, and there was still a smile on his lips, and he said slowly: "When you came to this dead lake that day, I said that everything here is up to you. Qinglong, Youji and I are here
This is just to capture this yellow bird. It's you who have the final say over these four people on the right path! Whatever you want is yours."
"Pooh!"
Suddenly, a disdainful snort came from the front.
Everyone looked forward, but Lin Jingyu's face was as frosty as he said coldly: "Demons and evil spirits will come up to fight to the death if they have the guts. Why should they be like a woman chewing her tongue? It's ridiculous!"
As soon as these words came out, Qinglong's face darkened first, but the Ghost King looked at Lin Jingyu from a distance, but was not angry. Instead, he smiled, turned to the ghost and said: "This person must be Lin Jingyu!
Is that your childhood friend?”
Gui Li was shocked. To this day, Lin Jingyu's reputation is not very famous, but for some reason, the Ghost King was able to recognize him at a glance. Looking at the Ghost King's faint smile, he felt a sudden chill in his heart.
The Ghost King looked at him and said calmly: "Tell me! How to do it?"
Gui Li met his gaze, looked at each other calmly, and said: "Most of the things here have been completed, and these people do not play an important role, so they don't need to be ignored. Sect Master, you should take care of the yellow bird first, which is the top priority."
The Ghost King looked at him without saying a word, and the place became quiet for a moment.
A trace of worry flashed in Qinglong's eyes. Youji next to him couldn't see any expression because of the black gauze covering her face, but she didn't look very relaxed after thinking about it. Youji's eyes passed through the black gauze and were on Ghost Li and Ghost King.
After turning around, he glanced into the distance and was suddenly startled. Among the four righteous people in the distance, Lu Xueqi stood silently at the end, her face cold, but her eyes were looking at Gui Li from a distance.
Under that frosty face, there seemed to be an unknown hint of care.
Youji suddenly reached out and pushed Qinglong quietly.
Qinglong was a little worried when he suddenly felt something. He turned around and looked at Youji, only to see Youji's black veil swaying slightly and moving in the direction of the Ghost King's figure. He and Youji were among the four great envoys of the Ghost King Sect, so how could he not know her?
Thoughts, but at the moment I have concerns.
After pondering for a moment, Qinglong finally walked gently behind the Ghost King and whispered: "Sect Master, what Gui Li said is not unreasonable. Now that the yellow bird has surrendered, we'd better place it first, otherwise it will die in the marsh.
Wandu, both factions of Hehuan are here, and there is a fear that things will change soon."
The Ghost King turned back to look at Qinglong, nodded slowly, and said: "What you said is true." Then his eyes flashed faintly, and he said to the ghost: "In that case, I will leave this place to you."
Gui Li nodded silently and said, "Don't worry."
The Ghost King looked at him again, smiled suddenly, turned around and walked away. Qinglong behind him smiled at Ghost Li and followed him immediately.
You Ji slowly followed. When she passed by Gui Li, Gui Li looked at her and nodded lightly.
Youji's black veil swayed slightly, but she didn't say anything and just walked over.
After the Ghost King and the others disappeared, Gui Li slowly turned around and looked at Fa Xiang and the others.
Dharma Prime Minister coughed, took a step forward, and said: "Junior Brother Zhang..."
Gui Li said coldly: "My name is Gui Li."
The Fa Xiang was suffocated. Lin Jingyu, who was behind him, frowned and said in a deep voice: "Xiaofan, why are you doing this? I know you are kind-hearted, but you were killed by a traitor back then, and you strayed into the devil's way..."
The Dharma Prime Minister felt quite harsh when he heard this, but he just smiled bitterly and remained silent.
Just listen to Lin Jingyu continue: "...As long as you are willing to look back, I believe that with the magnanimity and magnanimity of Master Daoxuan, you will definitely be allowed to return to Qingyun."
Gui Li said calmly: "Why should I look back?"
Lin Jingyu's body trembled, and his eyes were fixed on the former childhood friend in front of him. He was standing there, saying with an indescribable cold feeling: "The world is unkind, and treats all things as stupid dogs! This
I'm walking a fine path and I don't need you to save me."
Lu Xueqi stood at the end, and her body seemed to tremble slightly. Zeng stood beside her, saw her expression in his eyes, frowned slightly, but said nothing.
Lin Jingyu had an angry look on his face and took a step forward. He was about to say something more, but was stopped by Fa Xiang.
The Faxiang looked at Lin Jingyu, shook his head gently at him, and whispered: "He is already deeply possessed. Don't act too hastily, otherwise it will be counterproductive!"
Lin Jingyu originally blocked Fa Xiang with a look of anger on his face, but after hearing what he said, he finally realized that it was as he said. He turned to look at Gui Li again, and his heart softened, remembering the time when his childhood sweethearts were together.
It was time to have fun, but I finally gritted my teeth and went back.
Dharma Xiang pondered for a moment and said to Gui Li: "Donor Gui Li, whether you admit it or not, we always have a connection. Now that the Emperor's treasury has been destroyed, it seems that there is no peerless treasure, so let's say goodbye!"
Gui Li snorted, glanced at Fa Xiang, then looked at the others, at Lin Jingyu, at Zeng, and finally his eyes fell on Lu Xueqi's face.
The cold woman stood at the end, her face was as frosty, and her eyes were like water, so deep that it was impossible to see the bottom. I didn’t know what she was thinking deep in her heart.
Gui Li retracted his gaze, said no more, turned around and left.
Not long after walking, he faintly heard someone chasing after him. Gui Li frowned and turned around to look. Suddenly he was startled, but it was Zeng chasing after him. Looking at the faces of Fa Xiang and others behind him, they seemed a little shocked.
Zeng ran in front of him, turned his back to Fa Xiang and others, stared at Gui Li for a moment, suddenly laughed, and said with a smile: "You won't kill me, right?"
Gui Li looked at him, and his smile seemed to have not changed at all from when they met on the Tongtian Peak of Qingyun Mountain. He was still so cheerful. After a while, his eyes finally softened, but his voice remained the same.
As calm as Zhishui, he said: "What's the matter?"
Zeng said "tsk tsk" twice, shrugged his shoulders, and said: "Anyway, I still treat you as a friend. As for what you think, I can't help it." At this point, he paused and his eyes suddenly twitched.
After blinking a few times, he whispered: "Brother, can you let me hug this three-eyed monkey?"
Gui Li was startled, and the scene where he had been pestering him for Xiao Hui suddenly appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable warmth in his heart. In fact, he grew up in Qingyun Mountain since he was a child, and he was very familiar with every plant and tree on the Dazhu Peak of Qingyun Mountain.
Deep feelings, not to mention Zeng, one of the few friends.
Zeng saw that Gui Li didn't speak, but he didn't seem to have any disdain or objection, and he felt happy for a while. He had always been extremely smart, and he still valued Gui Li, a friend who had entered the devil's path, very seriously. But he knew very well that Zhang Xiaofan
His temperament is stoic and stubborn, and he would rather die to protect a promise he made back then. It is conceivable that because of this, he suffered a lot.
So over the years, in order to pull this friend out of the devil's path, I have secretly thought of many ways, but in the end I can only come to one point - it is better to go slow than to rush.
At this moment, Zeng's eyes fell on Xiao Hui, who was lying on Gui Li's shoulder. His eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile: "Xiao Hui, it's me! Do you still recognize me?"
Xiao Hui lay lazily on Gui Li's shoulder. For some reason, the monkey's face was red, and it looked a bit like a normal person who had drunk too much. After barking several times in a row, it opened its eyes weakly.
I opened my monkey eyes and took a look at Zeng. He let out an impatient "squeak" twice and closed his eyes again.
Zeng was not angry at all. He seemed to like him very much. The four words "coveted" were clearly written on his forehead.
Gui Li looked at Zeng's expression, as if it hadn't changed at all in ten years. He suddenly sighed and said, "Forget it! It's tired today. If we meet again in the future, we can talk about it then."
Zeng looked at Xiao Hui reluctantly, nodded, and then moved his eyes to Gui Li's face.
Gui Li said calmly: "If there is a confrontation between good and evil in the future, and you and I are enemies, you can do whatever you want. As for..." He raised his eyes and looked at Zeng, and after a while, he said slowly: "You and I have different ways, so we must be enemies, but
In my heart, I still regard you as a friend."
Zeng was overjoyed, smiled broadly, nodded vigorously, stretched out his hand to pat Gui Li's shoulder, but suddenly felt it was inappropriate, so he took it back. Then he rolled his eyes, and suddenly thought of something, a snicker appeared at the corner of his mouth, and reached out to
He took something out of his arms, but it was a rather shabby book with a blue cover. There was no writing on the cover, and he didn't know what kind of book it was.
Gui Li frowned. For some reason, the book seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
Zeng quietly thrust the book into Gui Li's hand and chuckled: "We are brothers, we have met for the first time in ten years, and I will give you a small gift."
Gui Li looked at Zeng's appearance, his smile was half happy, but also half inexplicable and vulgar. He frowned and looked at the book in his hand, and opened it casually...
"ah!"
Even with Gui Li's current calmness and determination, he still trembled and hurriedly closed the book. The contents of this book were filled with many words and pictures, and the pictures were full of men and women, but they were written ten years ago.
When they were young, they wanted to exchange Xiao Hui for the erotic book on Tongtian Peak.
"You..." Gui Li was speechless for a moment, unable to speak.
Zeng glared at him and said, "If you don't want both of us to be ruined, don't speak loudly."
Gui Li stared at him, with an inexplicable confusion in his heart. He should have thought that this man was really fooling around, but somehow, this seemingly boring and boring action suddenly made him and Zeng in front of him become much closer. In the past,
It's like he's back again.
Zeng smiled at him, turned around and walked back. This time he came up with a quick wit, but it actually had a profound meaning. If he wanted to pull this friend back from the devil's path, he had to let him recognize himself as his friend first. Now he
Taking the risk of being ridiculed by everyone for doing such a boring thing really left Gui Li speechless. I believe that when they meet again in the future, their relationship will be much better than now.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile on his face.
Fa Xiang walked back to him, saw a smile on his face, and said, "Senior Brother Zeng, why are you so happy?"
Once he was in a good mood, he made a face at the Dharma image and said: "Buddha said: Don't say it, don't say it!"
Faxiang smiled and glanced at Gui Li in the distance. He saw the man standing there with a thick blue book in his hand. His expression seemed a little complicated and he didn't know what he was thinking. He shook his head at the moment.
He said to the others: "The matter here is over, let's go! We'll talk about anything later."
Zeng Dang nodded first, and then Lin Jingyu and Lu Xueqi also silently nodded in agreement.
The four of them turned into four colors of light, soared into the sky, circled in mid-air, and then disappeared away.
Gui Li stood on the huge tree trunk, and suddenly felt a little empty in his heart, as if he had lost something. His eyes immediately fell on the book in his hand, and then he raised his hand, as if he was about to throw the book away.
, but suddenly smiled bitterly, and finally took the book back and put it in his arms.
Then, he took a deep breath, took another breath, cheered up, and said: "Xiao Hui, let's go out!"
Xiao Hui didn't even open his eyes this time, and shouted twice vaguely: "Zhizhi, Zhizhi." I don't know if it was an answer.
Gui Li smiled slightly, waved his right hand, took up the soul-eating magic weapon, turned into blue light, flew away like lightning, and left the giant tree.
Ghost Li flew over the Dead Lake, flying through the mist and miasma like clouds and mist. He came out of the inner lake, found his direction in mid-air, and then flew towards the place where the Ghost King Sect's men and horses were deployed in the outer lake.
His flying speed is naturally extremely fast, but the dead area is really vast. After flying for less than half an hour, what he saw was still a vast sea of grass and green everywhere. Although he didn't know how many death traps there were down here, but in the
Viewed from mid-air, the scenery is quite picturesque and refreshing.
But when he was almost flying to where the Ghost King Sect's men and horses were, Gui Li suddenly frowned, and there was a faint smell of familiar blood in the air, drifting away in the wind.
Gui Li's expression changed, he let out a slight whistle, and suddenly the green light under his feet became brighter, and he rushed down from the sky.
A sharp blue light fell from the sky, accompanied by a strong wind, flying over the green grass pond. The invisible wind blew the water of the grass pond to both sides, causing ripples on the water.
Soon, Gui Li saw where the Ghost King Sect's men and horses were gathering, and saw that many people were still gathered here. It seemed that at least most of them were safe, so he was half relieved.
At this time, the disciples of the Ghost King Sect also noticed Gui Li descending from the sky and stood up one after another.
Gui Li fell down and stood on the ground, but his first reaction was to frown even more tightly. The smell of blood here was extremely strong. It seemed that the smell of blood just smelled at high altitude was emanating from here.
All the disciples of the Ghost King Sect next to him all bowed their heads and stood in awe. Although Gui Li had not killed anyone indiscriminately over the years, his temperament had changed drastically as he practiced the devil's way, and he often exuded a coldness involuntarily. In the Ghost King Sect, except for the sect leader, the Ghost King, all the other ordinary disciples
The person who is most in awe is him, a rising star.
At this time, a man stood out from the crowd. He was a young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He was quite handsome. He was Yan Hui.
He walked forward, saluted Gui Li, and said, "Deputy sect leader, you are back."
Gui Li nodded and said, "What's going on here?"
Yan Hui stopped talking and signaled Gui Li with his eyes. Gui Li understood and walked forward. Yan Hui glanced around and said loudly: "The deputy sect leader is back. Everyone, stick to your posts. There is no need to panic."
Everyone responded in unison and then dispersed.
Yan Hui quickly followed Gui Li and whispered, "Follow me."
After that, they strode to a remote place on the right. After walking for a while, the two came to a place with lush grass. The weeds were as tall as half a person. Although there was no one around, the smell of blood in the air was still there.
It's getting heavier.
Gui Li looked at Yan Hui, and Yan Hui's face was slightly pale, and he whispered: "See for yourself!" After saying that, he walked to the patch of grass and reached out to push away the weeds.
Gui Li stepped forward slowly, looked into the grass, and his expression suddenly changed. He saw that the grass looked the same as the surroundings, but the middle part was dyed bright red with human blood, and the smell of blood hit his nostrils.
It makes me want to vomit. Under the thick grass, there are actually thirteen human corpses piled up. The death conditions are horrific, and almost everyone's body is broken into several pieces.
Although Gui Li has been in the demon sect these years and is used to seeing bloodshed, this is the first time he has seen such cruel methods.
He closed his eyes and calmed down, then his face returned to calmness, and he slowly walked forward and looked carefully in front of the bones.
Yan Hui followed him and whispered: "These disciples were all arranged to guard here last night. This place is the farthest from where our team is, and it is the farthest spy we have deployed. These people are also quite capable.
.Unexpectedly, they were all slaughtered overnight without any sound."
Gui Li's face was gloomy, his eyes became colder, and he said slowly: "Who is the murderer? Do you have any clues?"
Yan Hui did not answer immediately, but said: "Deputy sect leader, come here and take a look."
Gui Li glanced at him and saw Yan Hui stepping over these horrific corpses and walking deeper into the grass. There was another corpse deeper in the grass, but this man's body was relatively intact, with only one missing left hand.
where it goes.
The corners of Gui Li's eyes twitched slightly. He knew this person. His name was Xu Chonghai. He was a highly respected person under his command. He didn't expect that he would die here.
Yan Hui walked up to Xu Chonghai and said, "Look."
Gui Li walked closer and looked underground. He was shocked to see the only remaining right hand next to Xu Chonghai's head scratching two characters on the dirt:
Fish──strange.
The word "fish" is still clear, but the second word "weird" is already confusing. It seems that Xu Chonghai is exhausted.
"Fish monster?" Gui Li frowned.
Yan Hui nodded and said: "I don't know what this means. Are there fish monsters around here? But after I discovered them today, I immediately searched the surrounding area, but I found no trace of any fish monsters at all."
Gui Li slowly turned around and walked out of the grass, and Yan Hui followed. The unpleasant smell in the air was still very strong, but it seemed much fresher than in the grass.
Gui Li took a deep breath and suddenly said: "Where is the monk who kills lives! Why isn't he here?"
Yan Hui was silent for a moment and said: "After he saw this scene in the morning, he was furious. Later, he somehow saw from Xu Chonghai's gestures that the mysterious fish monsters were heading south, so he chased them alone.
Even though I tried to persuade him, he didn't listen. And..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped.
Gui Li glanced at him and said, "What?"
A trace of hatred flashed across Yan Hui's face, and he said: "Originally, Deputy Sect Master, you strictly ordered us not to conflict with Hehuan Sect and Wandu Sect before you come back. But with such a murderous incident this morning, I am afraid that it was caused by Wandu Sect or Wandu Sect.
The poisonous hands of the Hehuan faction secretly brought people to their location to find out what happened. If it was really their fault, they would naturally take revenge."
Gui Li said calmly: "The incident happened suddenly, and you were not wrong. Then what will be the result after going there?"
Yan Hui hesitated for a moment and said: "This is beyond my expectation. It turned out that all the troops from the Wandu Sect suddenly withdrew from Death Lake the day before for unknown reasons, and the Hehuan Sect..." He looked at it
Looking at Gui Li, he whispered: "It seems that the same thing happened to us, more than twenty people died."
Gui Li's face changed slightly and he said, "Is there such a thing?"
Yan replied: "That's right, I checked it out personally and then came back."
Gui Li remained silent, standing there as if deep in thought.
Yan Hui didn't dare to disturb him for a while, but after a long time, Gui Li still didn't speak. He couldn't help but whispered: "Deputy sect leader, what should we do now?"
Gui Li did not directly answer Yan Hui's words. Instead, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned to look at him and said, "Has the Ghost King Sect Master been here before I came back?"
Yan Hui's expression changed, and then he nodded and said, "Yes."
A faint light flashed in Gui Li's eyes, and he said, "What did he say?"
Yan replied: "The sect master came with the two holy envoys Qinglong and Zhuque. He came to the area to check out the situation. His face was very ugly, but in the end he only said: 'All affairs here will be handled by the deputy sect master.
'After that, he took the two holy envoys and left."
Gui Li's face was expressionless, and he was silent for a while. Of course, Yan Hui didn't know that the relationship between Ghost King and Gui Li suddenly became somewhat subtle, so he could only watch him from the side.
After a moment, Gui Li nodded and said: "You handled this matter very well. Now that the matter in Death Lake has come to an end, from now on, you will immediately lead your subordinates to leave here and return to Huqi Mountain."
Yan Hui nodded and said, "What about you, deputy sect leader?"
Gui Li turned his head and looked at the long white clouds on the horizon. It looked flawless and white. Who could have imagined how many bloody things would happen under it?
He said calmly: "Although the killing monk is a little impulsive, his tracking skills are unique. The origin of these fish monsters is unknown, and they killed my men, so I naturally have to track them down."
Yan Hui lowered his head slightly behind his back and said, "Yes."
Gui Li nodded and said, "Go ahead!"
After saying that, he gradually looked towards the south, where he saw a vast sea of grass and wind blowing across the dead swamp. He didn't know what secrets were hidden there.
Unexpectedly, the mysterious fish-headed monster who suddenly attacked Xiaohuan when he, Jin Ping'er, and Qin Wuyan secretly met a few days ago suddenly appeared in his mind...
