This voice came out of the blue, coming from an obscure place nearby. It should be a warning from Yin soldiers and ghost soldiers, and most of the Yin soldiers and ghost soldiers here are subordinates of Li Zhong.
It was Li Xiuyuan who brought help this time.
Although being busy didn't help much, it was because such a fight was not something they could get involved in.
But now that this voice came, it made Li Xiuyuan instantly alert.
"Wha~!"
There was a whistling sound, and something seemed to fly out of the nearby woods, heading straight for Li Xiuyuan.
"Ang~!"
The dragon and horse neighed, feeling a strong sense of danger and uneasiness. It wanted to save the savior, but things happened so fast that even the dragon and horse couldn't react in time.
At this moment, Li Xiuyuan was alerted by the voice and immediately sensed the danger. The hairs all over his body stood up and tensed up, and he subconsciously dodged.
He felt a strong wind whistling past his body. Listening to the sound, he could imagine how powerful this flying thing was. Let alone a person, even a tiger.
An elephant will be killed in an instant.
"Boom~!"
After narrowly avoiding this thing, I only heard an explosion, and the nearby soil exploded, only to see a spear made of brass pierced deeply into the ground. Because the force was too strong,
The tail of the spear was still buzzing and vibrating.
"簌猌~!"
It seems that because Li Xiuyuan was not killed, there was a sudden sound in the forest, as if something was escaping.
"How are you? Are you okay?" Yan Chixia was startled and hurried over.
Everything happened in a flash of lightning, and no one came over alertly. Only Li Xiuyuan relied on the reminder of the Yin soldiers and his own martial arts to barely avoid the danger.
"I'm fine. What flew over just now?"
Li Xiuyuan said in shock.
The dryads were all dead, but he really didn't expect such a fatal attack at the last moment.
"A spear flew over. Someone wants to kill you." Yan Chixia said.
"Why is it a human being and not the old Black Mountain demon? I heard the tree demon calling the Old Black Mountain demon several times before. Maybe it was the hand of the Old Black Mountain demon." Xia Houwu came over and said.
Yan Chixia said: "It is definitely a human being, and he is also a person with unusual martial arts skills. This spear was thrown by someone with force. Look, there are fingerprints on the spear. If it was done by the old monster from Montenegro,
If so, there should be a breath of mana on it."
Li Xiuyuan took a look, and sure enough, there was a palm print made by someone on it, and the fingerprints on it were clearly visible.
"To be able to throw such a spear from such a long distance, that person's strength is really terrifying. I'm afraid he is a warrior who specializes in overcoming his strength."
Yan Chixia said: "But why would such a person appear in Lanruo Temple at this time, and actively attack you? It seems that this is not a coincidence, but deliberately waiting for an opportunity to ambush you."
"But what's the matter? I'm afraid it has something to do with that old Black Mountain monster." Li Xiuyuan said in a deep voice.
If the thousand-year-old demon is willing to drive a person, it will not be difficult at all.
It seemed that he had just killed the tree demon, and when he turned around, he was stared at by the old Black Mountain demon.
This old monster from Montenegro has more ruthless and darker methods, and his brain is also smarter.
In order to deal with myself, I have completely given up the magic power of demons and ghosts and directly used mortal methods.
"Li Zhong, do you know what happened in the forest just now?" Suddenly, Li Xiuyuan asked to the empty crowd.
"Young master, the man in the forest ran away very fast. There was a demonic wind carrying him, and the others could not catch up."
At this time, a gust of evil wind blew up, and Li Zhong led a few evil soldiers and ghosts, panting and turning back, full of shame.
"Have you seen clearly who it is?" Li Xiuyuan asked.
Sure enough, this matter was caused by the old demon from Montenegro, otherwise how could an ordinary person not even be able to catch up with the evil soldiers and ghosts?
Li Zhong said: "The younger one didn't see clearly. He only knew that he was a tall and burly man with a strong evil spirit."
"Is that so..." Li Xiuyuan frowned.
"Well, it's probably not that easy to find the person who was taken away by the old Black Mountain demon. However, you still have to send a few Yin soldiers and ghosts to search this area to see if this person will continue to stay here or escape.
If you find out, report it to me immediately." Li Xiuyuan said.
"Yes, young master."
Li Zhong responded, quickly disappeared into the darkness, and continued to look for the person who attacked Li Xiuyuan.
Seeing this, Yan Chixia smiled and said: "You are indeed a talented scholar. You actually have secret soldiers and ghosts under your control, asking them to find out information for you. I'm afraid there is nothing in this world that can be hidden from your eyes and ears."
"This is just a means of self-protection. If I am not strong, I will be harmed by monsters. I want to destroy the monsters, and naturally the monsters will destroy me. This is a fight to the death, so I can use all the methods
You have to use them all.”
Li Xiuyuan sighed helplessly and said: "I regret it a little now. Maybe I shouldn't have worn this jade belt in the first place. But after I saw the ghost, I went further and further down this road. In the end, I'm afraid I can't turn back."
.”
If he hadn't worn this jade belt, he would have definitely continued to be a rich young master, marrying wives and concubines, and gaining fame. How could he have fought to the death with these monsters, and these monsters were not ordinary monsters.
Either a monster that has practiced Taoism for hundreds of years, or a great monster that has practiced Taoism for thousands of years.
After saying that, he looked at the pieces of wood left by the dryad grandmother on the ground.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Although the tree demon is dead, in order to prevent the tree demon from resurrecting, it is better to burn it." As he said, he took out a bucket of strong fire oil, poured it on it, and picked it up from the side.
The dead branch with its roots still burning lit the fire.
The tree demon's trunk made a crackling sound in the fierce fire, and a lot of scarlet blood continued to emanate from it, carrying a foul smell.
"Haha, this fire burned well. It burned away a major scourge in the world. This matter is finally solved. Brother Xiahou, let's go back to the temple. This scholar still owes me three jars of wine. I will drink them all with you today.
Well, I'll be drunk all night." Yan Chixia laughed.
He was very nervous, so he would not express so many emotions. He only knew that the demon killer was a little tired and wanted to go back to drink and sleep.
"Okay, today we will compete to see who gets drunk first." Xia Houwu readily agreed.
Li Xiuyuan glanced around and made sure that nothing happened, then he got on his horse and left the back mountain on his dragon horse.
After killing the tree demon, the originally gloomy back mountain became less gloomy. The previously dark sky also became bright again. Although it was night, the stars were still bright and the moon was hanging high. It was such a beautiful place.
night view.
When he passed by a grave mound.
Suddenly, I saw a woman in white sitting on a grave mound. She looked melancholy and had many scars all over her body, which seemed to have been whipped.
"Nie Xiaoqian?" Li Xiuyuan recognized her immediately.
Nie Xiaoqian came back to her senses and said: "I have met Mr. Li. Thanks to Mr. Li for killing grandma, I was able to get out of trouble and return to freedom."
"This is what I promised, and I will do it naturally. Now that you are free, why are you still sitting here moping?" Li Xiuyuan said.
"In the past, when Lanruo Temple was still there, I would listen to the monks chanting sutras every night, and I would also devote myself to practice. Now everything is gone, so what can I do if I am free." Nie Xiaoqian said: "I am here waiting for Mr. Li.
I am bidding farewell to Mr. Li."
"Where are you going?" Li Xiuyuan asked with an expression on his face.
Nie Xiaoqian said: "Since being a ghost is so painful, I'd better reincarnate. If there is a fate in the next life, I will repay Mr. Li's great kindness."
After saying that, he walked down the grave mound and prepared to leave.
"What will Ning Caichen do when you leave? He likes you very much." Li Xiuyuan said.
"He was just confused by my physical appearance. He didn't really love me. Besides, he and I just met by chance. But Mr. Li was right to remind me that I should say goodbye to him before leaving, so as not to leave without saying goodbye and make him think
I failed him, after all, it was me who took the initiative to seduce him." Nie Xiaoqian said quietly.
"Since you have decided to reincarnate, go ahead. This is a good thing and I should congratulate you." Li Xiuyuan nodded with a calm expression.
This is indeed Nie Xiaoqian's ending.
In the end, she was reincarnated and didn't stay with anyone.
Just because of his appearance, the relationship between Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian was not that deep before.
This is fine, Ning Caichen from the province is infatuated with Nie Xiaoqian and has been waiting hard but failed to get her wish.
Nie Xiaoqian gave a final salute to Li Xiuyuan, glanced at him gratefully and then disappeared, turning into a dark wind and blowing towards Lanruo Temple.
The dark wind blew through, turned around in mid-air, and blew into a Zen room in Lanruo Temple.
Ning Caichen, who was sleeping on the couch, immediately had a dream.
In the dream, he was standing in the courtyard of the Zen room. Nie Xiaoqian, dressed in white, walked out of nowhere, bowed in front of him and said: "Before, I was forced by the tree demon grandma to sell my sex to seduce you.
But this is not my original intention. You are a kind-hearted person, and I cannot bear to harm you. Now that the tree demon has been eliminated, I have regained my freedom, and now I am going to be reincarnated and become a human again."
"The fate between you and me ends here. This time I am here to say goodbye to you. Thank you for helping me before. This kindness can only be repaid in the next life."
After saying that, Nie Xiaoqian slowly stepped back, her figure gradually fading.
"Xiaoqian, don't go. Don't go."
In the dream, Ning Caichen tried his best to stay and reached out to grab her, but in the dream, he couldn't move and could only freeze in place, watching Nie Xiaoqian leave.
