Chapter 219 Silver Wolf Mask, Boy
Twenty-three peaks are in the dense dead forest.
Taking advantage of the dark sky and the dead trees, dozens of men in black were ambushed.
Watching the fireworks exploding in the sky, a man in black pounded his fist on the ground, "I wonder who set off these flares! They're bound to cause a big commotion on the ancient road! Captain, our plans have been disrupted!"
In front of him, the young man in black clothes had broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His back was like a strong pine or bamboo, straight and cold.
"You stay here, I'll go check out the situation." The young man spoke in a low, calm voice, and then he shot out like a wisp of black smoke, disappearing from everyone's sight in a few breaths.
Night has fallen, fires are lit in the distance, and noise comes with the wind.
The boy's figure was so strange and unpredictable that it was almost impossible to detect him in the darkness.
A strong wind blew in his face, breaking the silver wolf mask on his face. The eyes hidden under the mask were as black as obsidian, indifferent and cold.
At the foot of the Seven Peaks, which are two peaks away from the Twenty-Three Mountains, the fire was the brightest and the fighting was fierce.
The young man landed silently on the shadowy dry branch, staring coldly below.
A dozen people, holding torches and cold blades, chased and surrounded a man in the snow and woods, killing him.
The girl was about eleven or twelve years old, wearing a thin jacket with white background and black edges and tight sleeves. Her black hair was tied up in a ponytail at the back of her head. Her thin figure made her run and dodge lightly and with ease.
At first glance, it seemed like danger was everywhere. He could only barely avoid the attacks, and the knife marks on his thin coat increased one by one.
Suddenly, the girl narrowly avoided the knife from behind again and looked back, her eyes reflected in the firelight.
Her almond-shaped eyes and black pupils possess a calmness and melancholy that transcends her age.
Without any unnecessary emotions, like a cat playing with a mouse, he exudes the calmness and confidence of controlling the overall situation.
He was so familiar with these eyes.
The movements she used while dodging and moving around were the same as his.
The young man's heart was suddenly hit, and it started beating again and again.
The indifference and coldness in his eyes were shattered, leaving cracks.
Two words escaped from the corner of his lips very lightly and were immediately blown away by the wind.
The girl below seemed to have heard it, and her black eyes slightly raised, her gaze straight, meeting his eyes.
She glanced at him briefly and then turned away.
It was like looking at a stranger, but also like seeing nothing.
The boy tightened his hands on the dead branch, clasping his fingers tightly together to suppress the excitement and ecstasy of the reunion.
When he looked at the people chasing the girl, murderous intent surged in his eyes and he jumped down.
Five kills in one step, the snow was instantly stained with blood, and the screams shook off the dead branches and shattered snow.
"Jiuer! Jiuer! Don't be afraid, brother is here to save you!" Another young boy's voice came from the distance, the tone was clear and full of panic and anxiety.
The sound of chaotic footsteps also came from that direction. At the same time, flames surged from the hilltops of the ancient road and extended downwards.
The masked boy in black grabbed another big man's throat with his five fingers, crushing his bones and taking his life, and finally reached the girl.
Looking at the other person's completely unfamiliar face, his eyes were dark and deep, and his lips moved slightly as if he was about to speak.
"Get lost." The girl glanced at him indifferently with her almond-shaped eyes, and opened her lips slightly, saying one word coldly.
Bai Yu ran over quickly from the other end and saw the scene in the snowy and dead forest from afar. He almost burst into curses.
Of the dozen or so horse bandits that he and Tianbao had specially lured, most were lying on the ground, and the remaining three were crawling to escape.
And opposite Tianbao stood a man in black.
A meddling bitch.
Ruining his and Tianbao's good plans!
Bai Yu squeezed his eyes shut for a moment before putting on a delighted smile and running over. He deliberately pushed aside the man in black and reached out to hug Tian Bao. "Jiu'er, I'm so glad you're okay. I was so scared!"
He was about to hug Tianbao and show the true love between the brother and sister after being frightened in front of the people from the escort agency, but he froze just one step away.
Someone grabbed his collar from behind.
Bai Yu and Tian Bao's eyes turned cold and they kicked out at the same time.
The young man let go and turned away. When he looked up again, there was a complicated look in his eyes and his head ached slightly.
Once he was certain of the girl's identity, combined with what he had seen, he felt that the whole thing exuded a very familiar atmosphere.
In the past, in Tubei Mountain, everyone would play tricks on others together like this.
He seemed to have good intentions but ended up doing something bad.
The people from the escort agency also arrived at this time. Looking at the battlefield full of corpses and traces of fighting on the ground, it was obvious that someone had helped Jiuer.
Gao Chong's gaze fell on the masked youth. There was scrutiny and inquiry in his eyes, but his expression concealed it. He said gratefully, "It must be this chivalrous man who helped me. I thank you very much, but we can't stay here for long. The bandits on the hilltop will be here soon. Let's leave first."
The masked boy's eyes passed by the two people imperceptibly, and his expression changed in an instant, like a rookie. A secret smile gathered in the corner of his eyes, and he nodded silently at Gao.
The group immediately returned to the entrance.
Xu Yang and the other two who were ordered to follow to rescue people looked at Bai Yu and Tian Bao with dissatisfaction when they turned around.
Yu Hong snorted, "You're more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. I sent you here to scout the way, but you've caused a stir among the entire mountain! If the escort agency suffers any damage, you two will be the culprits!"
Han Wenbo rolled his eyes. "Why bother telling them so much? I told you I was just a newbie. I thought I was so capable because I luckily passed the assessment, but I'm so vulnerable. I easily used up the flare I just used in an emergency! What a loser!"
As soon as he finished speaking, hidden weapons suddenly attacked from all directions.
Gao Chong's expression hardened as he shouted, "Be careful! Danger!"
The escorts on this trip were all skilled in martial arts and they quickly knocked down the flying hidden weapons.
The masked boy stood alone in a corner and could see clearly that although the hidden weapons were attacking, they had no intention of hurting anyone, and most of them penetrated into the snow outside the crowd.
He put his fingers together and quietly caught a hidden weapon, then lowered his eyes to take a closer look, and the smile in his eyes became even more intense.
It's a pear needle.
It’s really a sweet baby.
As expected, his helping hand just now ruined her plans.
The boy suddenly felt his headache getting worse.
By the time the escorts had safely shot down all the pear needles, the blazing torches all around were approaching, and wild shouts reached the sky.
This time, there was really no way to leave.
Yu Hong was annoyed and angry when he saw this. "There are bandits everywhere! What should we do now? It's all because of Shi Yu and Jiu Er, those two losers! Otherwise, how could we have faced so many bandits at once!"
"Enough! Find a way to break out first, and talk nonsense later when we get back!" Gao Chong shouted, his face becoming even gloomier. The situation was completely beyond his expectations.
With the skills of him and his escorts, it would not be difficult for them to pass through the Yudu Ancient Road safely, as long as the thirty-three peaks of horse bandits did not come in droves.
"Hahahaha! The sheep that came this time are quite fat! Brothers, keep an eye on them, don't let them get away!"
"Don't worry, Boss! They can't get away! It's not easy to wait for meat to be delivered to your doorstep in the dead of winter. We must capture them all at all costs!"
"Hurry up! People from other peaks are here too, first come first served!"
The horse bandits came laughing with torches in their hands, and the big knives in their hands flashed coldly in the firelight, and they chopped at the people crowded in the middle.
