Chapter 77 The scene seems to be replayed yesterday
Li Chu stepped forward to untie Hong Ling's rope. Hong Ling's shoulders tensed immediately, she bit her lips tightly, and said involuntarily in her throat: "Don't come over here..."
"Don't panic, girl. I'm a good person."
Li Chu looked at the frightened Hong Ling with a hint of sympathy in his eyes. Looking at her expression, it was clear that she was terrified to the extreme. In layman's terms, she was scared to death.
I think these monsters are really hateful.
How could such an innocent woman be frightened like this!
The rope was untied and Hong Ling was free.
But she didn't care about that. From beginning to end, this rope couldn't tie her up.
Now, she would do anything to escape from here, even if it meant losing this layer of skin.
But although the Taoist's eyes looked bright and gentle, she had no doubt that as long as she revealed a trace of evil spirit, she would never be able to escape the tracking of these eyes.
So she didn't dare to use any tricks.
For a ghost, is there anything more terrifying than talking to a little Taoist priest face to face?
Especially after he had just killed a particularly ruthless-looking demon king with one sword.
If you show even a little flaw, you might be the next one...
But she has lived for hundreds of years after all, so her mind is stronger.
I soon came out of the extreme fear and turned it into a fear that was still very intense but I could still think.
It is equivalent to lowering the level of fear from Mao Jiu to Chun Sanniang.
She knew she couldn't remain silent any longer, so she thanked him in a trembling voice, "Thank you very much... Young Taoist Priest for saving me. It's a great favor. I'm grateful...untold."
"You're welcome." Li Chu asked gently, "Where are you from, young lady?"
"My...my last name is Bai, my given name is Ling. I am not a local. I fled here with my father." Hong Ling revealed her fictitious identity.
"Miss Bai Ling." Li Chu nodded gently and asked, "Where do you live now?"
"I am temporarily staying with my father in the government office in Yuhang Town." Hong Ling said.
"Okay, then I'll take you home?" Li Chu said.
"ah?"
Hong Ling said in a trembling voice, "Ah", send me home?
She almost cried out loud on the spot.
Just before she was about to kneel down and beg for mercy, she realized that this return home did not mean a return to her hometown.
A literal return home.
Then.
I want to cry even more.
She quickly refused, "Don't bother me, little Taoist priest. I can go home by myself."
Li Chu frowned and looked at her. This girl was obviously a little confused after being frightened. It was really shameful to let her walk such a long mountain road alone.
no.
Even though demons and monsters are not that common, there are still many ruffians and scoundrels in Yuhang Town.
It would be bad if something unexpected happened.
He shook his head and said, "Help people to the end. Young lady, you are uneasy, so I'd better accompany you for a while."
When Hong Ling heard that she would help someone to the end, her heart skipped a beat.
The next sentence is to send the Buddha to the west.
Is he hinting that he's going to send me to hell?
"Miss Bai Ling?" Li Chu called out again when he saw her in a daze for unknown reasons.
"Ah... OK, thank you for your help, little Taoist priest." Hong Ling had no choice but to agree to him.
"It's okay. It's just a small favor." Li Chu waved his sleeves and let her go first.
Hong Ling then took a step forward and walked quickly out of the pavilion.
She now wished she could exchange her two legs for two wings and fly back, and make Li Chu get out of here as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, it cannot be changed.
…
People came to Shenxu Temple very quickly.
There was no need to search the mountain anymore, Jiang Shouyin and the others stayed in the government office for the time being. Only Zhang Yuxi was more carefree, so he asked Bai Ling to go out for a rafting trip.
Then he ran back in a hurry.
When he said that a very powerful but unknown demon king had captured Miss Bai Ling and specifically asked Jiang Shouyin to come over.
Jiang Shouyin was heartbroken.
Why does this scene seem familiar?
Once is not enough, you have to come twice, right?
I'm just a poor little Taoist priest. What did I do wrong?
But there's no way.
Since the opponent's target is him, he has no choice but to fight back.
If you are timid and let an innocent woman get implicated because of yourself... that is not what a cultivator would do.
Several disciples of Shenxu Temple said in unison that they wanted to go with him.
Jiang Shouyin's eyes swept over these guys one by one...
In order to avoid having to carry several people on his back when he escaped, he refused the request.
Alone, riding a donkey, he went into battle.
His mount seemed to be moving slowly, but in fact it was very fast. In a moment, he arrived near Yangshan on the bank of Jingyi River.
The mountain roads here are complicated, and the routes up and down the mountain are different, so I did not meet Li Chu and Hong Ling.
But there were already two pairs of strange pupils following behind him.
At an intersection going up a mountain, not long after Jiang Shouyin passed by, Li Si and Mao Jiu appeared from both sides.
In order to avoid Jiang Shouyin's spiritual sense, they kept a distance when monitoring him.
"That's right, he's the only one here." Li Si gritted his teeth and said, "This time, I'll make him pay with blood!"
…
When Jiang Shouyin arrived at the scene, he saw only ropes on the ground.
"Um……"
His brows furrowed. Was the enemy lying in ambush in the dark?
Or was there some accident?
His spiritual sense spread out rapidly, taking in everything within a radius of dozens of feet.
Immediately, he discovered traces of a battle in the distance. It seemed that a powerful sword energy swept through, cutting off all the trees on a path, and even those that were slightly close to the edge had no branches or leaves left.
Hidden among the fallen trees and leaves was a large corpse.
It looks like a mountain cat, but also like a tiger or leopard...
Is it a lynx?
He barely recognized the body's species.
This lynx must have been a demon with profound skills when it was alive. Even after death, the demonic energy remaining in its body is still strong.
Was it it that captured Miss Bai Ling?
Jiang Shouyin pondered for a while, and suddenly a vague idea flashed through his mind.
It is not advisable to stay here for long.
If I stay in this place any longer, I will be contaminated by some inexplicable karma...
After a practitioner reaches the state of divine union, he will sometimes have this kind of premonition of blessing. Although it is not very clear, it is often very accurate.
So Jiang Shouyin made a quick decision.
Got to slip away.
He immediately climbed onto the donkey and ran down the mountain. This donkey was truly amazing, it could climb over mountains and ridges as if it were walking on flat ground.
…
Li Si and Mao Jiu had not been at the entrance to the mountain for long. Instead of waiting for the Jade Lynx to call them, they heard the sound of donkey hooves again.
The two monsters looked at each other in surprise, and quickly dodged and hid in the forest to watch secretly.
Sure enough, it was Jiang Shouyin riding his green donkey quickly down the mountain.
this……
How could the Jade Lynx let him go?
As Jiang Shouyin's donkey-riding figure disappeared again, the two demons reappeared with confusion in their eyes.
"Let's go up and take a look." said Li Si.
Without him saying anything, Mao Jiu had already rushed up the mountain at the fastest speed.
After several leaps, he arrived outside the pavilion.
They looked at the empty pavilion in disbelief.
"What's going on? Where is Lord Jade Lynx?" Li Si gestured with his hands.
How can I be a lynx that big?
How come it just disappeared out of nowhere?
Mao Jiu's nose twitched twice and he pointed to a distance, "There... seems to be a smell of blood."
She walked over very lightly.
"this……"
When Li Si came over, he also opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath of extremely cold air that was so cold that it chilled his heart and bones, making the entire forest a little warmer.
In just a short moment, Lord Jade Lynx was beheaded by the sword.
It's a bit disillusioning.
After a long silence.
"What should we... do?"
There was a flash of panic in Mao Jiu's eyes, and he was at a loss for a moment.
It’s not her fault. Even the Jade Lynx couldn’t deal with this Taoist priest. It was really beyond their imagination.
Li Si calmed down for a while and didn't say anything. Instead, he strode to the body of the Jade Lynx and turned his hands into claws.
puff.
Serve again while hot.
This jade lynx gnawed on gold and iron all day long. Even after its death, its body was still harder than gold and stone. It took Li Si a lot of effort to barely pierce its lower abdomen.
He quickly took out a jade-white demon pill, which was of much higher quality than the Golden Lion's and looked extremely tempting.
Li Si wrapped up the demon pill again, and the series of actions were very smooth.
Skilled enough to make people feel distressed...
Mao Jiu watched this scene silently from the side, and suddenly felt... somewhat familiar.
sad.
Thanks to "zzz666666" for the reward of 1,000, and thanks to "shuhai55555" for the reward of 100.
