Yongning Town Final 4
Tao He took the newcomer on a long journey.
The road was winding and bumpy, but the newlyweds still had a bright smile on their faces, without even taking a breath, and were not affected by the road conditions at all.
The most devastated person was Chu Li who was following behind him. She followed closely with her spirit pet in her arms. The morning sun was high in the sky and the air was extremely hot. At that time, she was panting and sweating profusely.
The person in front showed no sign of stopping. Although Chu Li was tired, he did not give up halfway.
After leaving Yongning Town, everyone walked back towards the small road.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the market, the place is silent, with rows of trees rustling in the morning sun.
Before long, after passing through a street dotted with lush trees, a roaring waterfall came into view. Snow-white waves crashed against the rocks and splashed onto the ground.
The pets in Chu Li's arms saw the water and rushed out excitedly. They seemed as innocent and playful as children, but now was not the right time. Chu Li could only feign anger and pat the fur balls on the head as a warning.
Seeing the two people in front stopped, Chu Li immediately glanced around and quickly found a cover to hide.
"We're here." Tao He said with a smile on his face.
The man in white frowned slightly, looking towards the ribbon-like waterfall with a puzzled look. He asked, "Why can't I see your residence?"
"Isn't it right here?" Tao He said, pointing to the surging waterfall.
The man in white still hadn't reacted and was about to continue asking questions.
The next second, Tao He squatted down, picked up the stone beside his legs, stood up suddenly, and hit the back of Bai Yi's head.
The hard object collided with the soft object, and a dull sound was heard in the wind.
Chu Li frowned upon witnessing this scene, subconsciously tightened his arms around his spirit pet, and instinctively shrank into the shadows.
Bright red blood stained the clothes of the man in white. He lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
Tao He curled his lips slightly, with a very malicious smile on his face.
He grabbed the two pets in the white-clothed man's arms, kicked him in the body, and sneered disdainfully: "You idiot, if it weren't for the fact that you have so many pets in your hands, I wouldn't be in such a good mood to deal with you for so long!"
Then, he shook the two spirit pets in his hands again. Seeing the spirit pets groaning in pain, Tao He showed an almost perverted smile on his face: "Don't worry, you will enjoy happiness if you follow Brother Tao."
After saying this, he put his hand to his mouth, raised his head and whistled.
The next moment, several masked men in black clothes came out from the rocks above the waterfall. They carried longbows on their backs and had sharp eyes. After recognizing Tao He, they all looked at each other.
Then, a row of dark shadows jumped down from the rocks.
"Let's deal with this person."
"yes!"
The sound that resounded through the sky scared away the birds perched on the branches.
Tao He seemed to have thought of something again. He raised his hand, called out to someone, and asked, "Where is my brother?"
"Replying to the Second Master, another batch of goods arrived at 11:00 AM today, and the First Master is processing this batch."
Tao He nodded and let them go down, while he himself walked straight towards the waterfall.
He reached over the waterfall with his hand, which was still covered in blood, and activated some mechanism. The waterfall stopped abruptly, revealing a cave.
Then, Tao He twisted the disc on the door and opened it.
Because they were so far apart, Chu Li couldn't see the other person's twisting order at all. The next second, Tao He disappeared from his sight.
This place is far away from the small town of Yongning, hidden and quiet. No one would know that there is a different world under this waterfall.
Judging from the respectful titles their subordinates gave them, Tao He and Shi San should be of high status, so they should be more cautious.
They obviously killed the summoner, so were You Chengze and Liu Huaizhao also killed...?
Chu Li panicked. She glanced at the waterfall, which had returned to its original state, and then at her men who were carrying the man in white. She didn't know the gate's password, or even what ambushes lay there. Furthermore, the most important thing now was to meet You Chengze and the others. The best option seemed to be the men before her.
The opponent was carrying a bow on his back, and judging from his jumping movements just now, he was obviously very skilled.
What should she do?
Chu Li sighed and looked at the spirit pets in his arms, as if he had made up his mind.
Holding a few fur balls, she followed the group of men to the path on the right. After more than ten minutes, Chu Li felt that the time was almost up, so she released a few pets and let them lie dormant in every corner of the woods.
She herself looked coldly at the team that was coming towards her.
She took a deep breath, took out a knife and cut several holes in her clothes, exposing her fair skin to the air.
Chu Liyumu noticed that the fur balls were ready, so he rubbed his hands on the ground and suppressed his obsession with cleanliness and smeared them on his face.
Then, she stared at the dirty yet pitiful face, stumbled towards the side of the path, and when she reached the right position, she suddenly fell down.
“Who is it?”
Along with the angry and intimidating voice, several swords with cold light appeared.
Chu Li was startled and stunned for a moment. He lowered his eyes to look at the sharp side and broke out in a cold sweat.
Oh my God, I almost lost my life here!
But while there is no danger to his life yet, let’s play the victim!
Chu Li thought about it and secretly pinched her arm. The pain was clear, and her eyes instantly reddened. She said in a low and extremely pitiful voice: "Brothers, I'm not a bad person! Don't kill me, I'm just scared and I need your help!"
After saying that, Chu Li immediately hugged the legs of the nearest man.
She didn't know if her words had worked, but she could clearly feel the other person stiffen.
This is exactly the effect she wants.
Chu Li smiled triumphantly in his heart, then squeezed out a few tears, raised his head, looked at the masked man, and was about to speak, but he caught a glimpse of the man's somewhat familiar brows and suddenly paused.
...Hmm? Looks familiar?
Forget it, the important thing is to get out of danger as soon as possible.
"Brother, please help me, I'm so scared!" After the first time, Chu Li was more accustomed to what he was going to say next. "There... there are bad guys there, they have spirit pets, and they said if I don't obey them, they will kill me right there... I finally escaped, I don't want to go back. Please, brother..."
Chu Li, ah Chu Li, it’s such a pity that you didn’t become an actor before traveling through time. Your acting is so realistic!
After saying that, the man in front of him frowned suddenly. He looked at the man next to him, and it was unclear what kind of look they exchanged.
Before Chu Li knew what was going on, he saw the remaining men who were transporting the man in white suddenly let go and turned to walk into the woods.
Seeing these people slowly walking towards the trap he had set, Chu Li was delighted and his hands holding the man's thighs tightened.
Hurry up...go faster.
Chu Li secretly clenched his fists, his brow furrowed with a hint of solemnity.
This group of men were obviously a little scared. They had already taken out the swords on their waists and moved forward cautiously.
step.
Two steps.
Three steps.
Now is the time!
In an instant, screams rang out from the woods, startling birds and rustling leaves.
After a while, the group's voices fell silent, with only the sound of a bird chirping coming from the woods.
It was the sound of a raven.
Well done, you are worthy of being Chu Li’s pet.
Now that so many have been dealt with, the only ones left are the two on her left and right who are holding swords against her neck. She has to think of a good way to lead them in and keep one alive.
What should I do?
Chu Li was concentrating on thinking of a solution, when the next moment he suddenly felt someone pulling at the back of his neck.
She suddenly froze, thinking, Oh no, my life is in danger!
After struggling for a while, she immediately found that the sword in front of her had been put into the scabbard, and the man opposite her was standing there with the sword in his arms, staring at her.
Chu Li almost subconsciously looked to the side at the man whose thigh she had just hugged.
The man raised his hand, and with a slight movement of his slender fingers, he tore off the black cloth covering his face.
!!
You Chengze? ?
Chu Li's pupils shrank slightly, and before he could react, You Chengze had already loosened his grip on Chu Li's clothes and spoke first: "Why don't you wait for me in town?"
Only a few words came out of his mouth, but they were mixed with a hint of anger.
Chu Li didn't notice. At this moment, her mind was full of questions: "Why are you dressed like this?"
"It's a long story, and we can't stay here for long. Why don't you call back your pet and talk to us on the way?" The person who spoke was right opposite.
He had taken off his mask, revealing a strange face, full of heroic spirit. But Chu Li recognized him by his voice: it was Liu Huaizhao in disguise.
Seeing that the two were safe and sound, Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief.
She straightened her clothes and immediately walked towards the woods.
The woods were a mess, with corpses lying in groups of three or two, their appearance horrible. Several spirit pets circled the corpses leisurely. The little fox in the innermost group, a mysophobe, puffed out its chest, stared proudly ahead, and wagged its tail slowly.
Feeling the breath of her master, the little fox put aside her pride, took a step forward and threw herself into Chu Li's arms, not caring at all how dirty and messy she was.
Chu Li caught the little fox, teased it with special affection for a while, and then called the remaining few to leave together.
After coming out of the woods, the group of furry kids recognized You Chengze and rubbed against his legs one after another.
Chu Li really had no way to deal with them. In the past, at least these furry creatures would refuse for his sake, but now their true nature has been revealed.
She sighed softly, and seeing the little fox still resting in her arms, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional. She didn't expect that after all this time, it was still the little fox who loved her so unconditionally.
"Let's leave here quickly before Tao He comes out." Liu Huaizhao reminded.
Chu Li nodded, and seeing You Chengze walking forward, she subconsciously followed him.
It's not her fault.
Her enemy became her friend, and she was overwhelmed with worry and questions in her mind. She just wanted to find an opportunity to talk to You Chengze.
Unexpectedly, this man knew what Chu Li was thinking. He hugged his pet tightly and quickened his pace.
