The sound of fighting gradually became louder. The group of people were no longer thinking about how to assassinate Qiao Si, but were thinking about how to avoid this man's killing move.
This person's moves were ruthless, aiming directly at the vital points. This killing method was once used by a killer organization in the Jianghu, but that organization was later wiped out by a single person, a member of the organization, known in the Jianghu as Han Bailu.
This fight is no longer about them assassinating Qiao Si, but now it is a one-sided massacre by Han Bailu.
They were no match at all and were beaten back step by step.
Xia He could vaguely hear a noisy voice not far away. She was a little unsure, could it be that Qiuyue was injured on the way here?
"Qiuyue? Are you okay? What was that sound just now? Are you hurt?"
As she spoke, she began to grope towards the source of the sound.
Qiuyue's eyes became increasingly fierce as she looked at the remaining people.
It seems that we need to fight quickly and decisively.
But she spoke in a normal tone, and said loudly to Xia He: "I'm fine! You don't have to come over! I just ran into two pheasants, and I just happened to catch them and come to you!
The mountain road is rugged and you are not familiar with it. Don't wander around. I will be there soon."
As she spoke, she took the lives of three more people.
The leader of the men in black saw that she was hiding something from the person opposite her, and guessed that the person was important to her.
He turned his eyes and decided to take a different approach, hold the man hostage and wait for an opportunity to escape.
"You guys block it first, I'll go catch that guy."
As he spoke, he took advantage of his men fighting against Han Bailu and quickly flew away.
Qiuyue saw his intentions and her men moved even more ruthlessly. With a single blow of her sword, she pushed aside the three men blocking her path and chased after the leader.
She used the momentum to fly up the tree, took off a few leaves in the blink of an eye, and shot straight back.
The men in black behind had no time to react before they were shot in the throat and fell to the ground dead.
Qiuyue was very good at light work, and in a moment, she caught up with the leader.
The sharp, silver-white sword flew out of his hand like lightning, pointing straight at the man's back.
The leader tried to resist, but Han Bailu flashed by like a ghost, flashing a wicked smile at him. She grasped the hilt of the sword with her right hand and thrust the blade into his heart.
The man just saw her face clearly and opened his mouth to say something, but Qiuyue dislocated his jaw with her backhand, making him unable to make a sound.
This place was only three meters away from Xia He, and although she could not see what was happening here due to the heavy fog.
But if he made any sound, Xia He would definitely become suspicious, and now was not the time for her to expose herself.
There was no emotion in her eyes, and her right hand mechanically twisted the sword. She watched him close his eyes in pain before she drew the sword.
Qiuyue used his clothes to wipe the blood off the sword and put it back at her waist.
It fits perfectly on the waist, like an ordinary belt, with no visible flaws.
She carried his body and slowly retreated away silently.
Qiuyue found a ditch and threw all the bodies into it.
There are many wild beasts here, and the smell of blood will soon attract ferocious beasts.
In this way, she also saved the trouble of dealing with the corpse.
After the fight, there was not a drop of blood on her body, but there was still a faint smell of blood on her body.
Xia He has always had a sharp nose, so we can't let her find out.
Martial artists have sharp eyes and ears. Qiuyue looked around and soon spotted two pheasants passing by...
Just when Xia He and others were getting impatient and wanted to look for Qiuyue based on the noise just now, Qiuyue's figure gradually appeared in front of them.
Her hair was a little messy, with two dead leaves stuck on it, two marks of mud on her face, and a lot of mud on her clothes.
She held two pheasants' feet in her left hand. The pheasants hung their heads listlessly, shaking with Qiuyue's steps. It looked like they had been beaten to death.
As soon as Qiuyue saw Xia He, she happily raised her right hand high and waved to her.
"Ah! Look what I caught!"
"You really went to catch pheasants!"
Zhang You opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
"I couldn't even see the road clearly, but you were able to catch two chickens! That's amazing! Is this what you practiced for? That's amazing!" Zhang You did not hesitate to praise him.
It is the greatest luck to be able to find an acquaintance in this fog.
Zhang You had been walking for so long that he thought he would continue to get lost.
Who would have thought that she would be so lucky.
"It's so good to see you."
Zhang You hugged Qiuyue directly. At least she wouldn't die silently alone without anyone knowing.
As she got closer, she could faintly smell the scent of blood from Qiuyue, but she thought it was from a pheasant, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Qiuyue patted her on the back and said, "Alright, alright. I'm dirty. I accidentally fell into a pit and haven't cleaned it up yet. Look how plump this pheasant is. If I hadn't happened to come across it, it would have been hard to catch."
Zhang You stepped back, smiled when he heard that, and then started to tidy up the mess for her.
“It’s quite fat.
And you, why weren't you more careful? You even fell into a pit?
Oh, I forgot to mention that this fog seems to make people hallucinate. How did you wake up?
"I just accidentally fell into a pit, and it hurt me. If I didn't know some martial arts, I would probably be trapped in it.
"Hey? What happened to your hand?"
Qiuyue keenly observed the injury on Xia He's left hand.
"It's okay. I accidentally tripped over a rock and got stuck on a branch. I've already applied medicine."
Qiuyue was still worried and checked her hands. "You are a rouge artist, and you hurt your hands every now and then. What if they become useless in the future?"
"Oh - I didn't mean to do that, I just bumped into it accidentally."
Zhang You also thought it was outrageous as he would get his hands hurt every time.
"Huh? But you can wake up without a handkerchief, right?"
"After I realized I was hallucinating, I intentionally adjusted my breathing, so I'm fine."
Qiuyue found an excuse to fool her.
"Is it still possible?"
Zhang You was a little envious of those who practiced martial arts.
"Let's take a break and then go look for Chunhua and the others, shall we? I wonder how they are doing?"
Zhang You looked at Qiuyue and was worried that she had exhausted her energy from catching chickens, so she made a suggestion.
"Okay."
Qiuyue found a place to sit down.
"Alas, I don't know what time it is now? When will this fog dissipate?"
Zhang You said as he sat next to Qiuyue.
"It should be soon. It feels like it's been an hour. I wonder how they are doing now?"
Qiuyue answered her while handling the pheasant in her hand.
She knew that Xia He had an injury on her hand, so she didn't ask her to help deal with it.
"It's so foggy that it's hard to find anyone. I don't know if Chunhua and the others are in danger. We only woke up after we were injured. I don't know if they are awake yet."
Zhang You had some free time and started thinking about the possibilities after they got lost.
