If the spear was to stab, there must have been a strong wind, and if there was wind there would have been a sound, which could have been predicted. However, this spear stabbed without a sound, and I only heard the sound when I came to my senses. Also, the horse had intentionally stepped on those hyena men, so that the other sounds distracted my attention and made me ignore the distance it had traveled.

The only way to make the spear stabbing silent is to stand in front of me and then draw the spear and stab. The speed must be extremely fast. The movements of drawing the spear and stabbing have to be so fast that there is almost no gap. Therefore, the black horse knight in front of me must be incomparable to those hyena people. His skills in using spears are probably far better than mine.

I saw the spear piercing my shoulder, and the black horse continued to charge forward, and I was pushed forward by a powerful force. Soon my whole body left the floor and was almost hung up, and the pain in my shoulder repeatedly tore my painful nerves again and again!

I screamed in pain, and my tragic screams echoed throughout the valley!

"ah!!"

It swung me violently, and I rolled all over the hillside, falling down layer by layer. The wounds that were already bleeding spurted out more blood. These falls almost made me faint, and my head was buzzing with pain. The sound of horse hooves behind me did not stop at all because of my misery. On the contrary, the guy turned his horse's head and charged towards me again.

My left arm was seriously injured, but I thought that if I just lay on the ground like this, I would definitely die, so I had to struggle. So I suddenly pulled out Jinque with my right hand to block the black knight who was about to stab me. The guy seemed to recognize Jinque and immediately put away his spear and dodged sideways!

It is easy for the cavalry to charge but difficult to turn around. While it is still trying to turn around, I buy time and escape quickly. I just fell down and now I am at the foot of the mountain. I immediately continue to escape into the valley. When the black cavalry is coming, I swung the sword with my backhand. He didn't dare to resist, so he dodged again, and then turned his horse around and came again. Although I couldn't react in time to his speed of using the gun, I could still predict the sound of horse hooves.

He couldn't hide the sound, so once he got close, I would immediately swing my sword to scare him off temporarily, forcing him to turn around and charge forward. But I could only swing my sword blindly, because I couldn't predict where his spear would strike next. I was able to dodge it a few times, but at the same time I was stabbed in the waist and back several times, causing me to bleed even more.

It's just that I'm good at analysis. Although I can't predict where his next attack will be, I have mastered his attack routines and habits. He has a special attack habit. Since he needs to quickly burst out his spear, he is always used to attacking at the closest distance, so that the attack range is greatly reduced. After all, if it's fast, it won't be wide.

After thinking it over several times, I roughly figured out that his attack points were mostly between about forty-five and sixty degrees to the lower right of the horse's head. With these judgments, I was able to successfully scare him with the swing of the Golden Que several times afterwards, thus getting a break and then continuing to escape. Until I reached the end, I saw a huge earthen house cave. It was obvious that I was forced into a desperate situation.

"Stop, stop, stop! Tell me first, why are you chasing me? I didn't provoke you, I didn't offend you, I just broke in to save my own people. Do you have to make such a big fuss and chase us all the way?" I stopped and raised the Golden Que again to prevent him from getting close to me.

Perhaps it was just as the saying goes, "Kill the evil and disperse", so this black horse knight didn't dare to have any contact with me with weapons. It seemed that even if the other party was not a ghost, he must be some evil demon.

It seemed that I was always on the defensive, but in fact, I had the Golden Que in my hand, which was also a threat to him. Although he was the attacker, he was actually more afraid of a head-on fight with me. After all, I had the Golden Que in my hand, and I could probably kill him with one move. So when he saw me stop and my foundation was more stable, he stopped his horse and waited for an opportunity to move.

"Brother, I don't know what kind of monster you are, and I don't know if you can understand what I'm saying, but it doesn't matter. I just want to tell you that there's no point in doing this. I haven't done anything that would give you a reason to hunt me down and kill me. I just want my people to survive. Is that wrong? Is it worth killing? You and I can put down our weapons and have a good talk." I said.

I don't know if he understood me, but he did stop bleeding and I also slowed down. However, the blood in my body couldn't be stopped, and it wouldn't be good for me if it just stopped.

At this moment, I smelled a scent, which was very familiar. I lent air to the Golden Palace, making it glow. Then the light retreated a little, and I glanced back. It would have been better if I hadn't glanced back. As soon as I glanced back, I almost collapsed.

There were several iron chains on the ground, each with an iron ring drilled into the ground at one end and a person tied to the other end. The person's hands and feet were tied with iron chains, and there was a round iron ring around his neck, which was also connected to a vertical iron chain and connected to the surrounding iron rings on the ground. There was a similar round iron ring around his waist and neck.

This level of iron chain lock method is probably only used on lions, tigers, and martial arts masters. I think it is more reasonable. But unfortunately, the person tied up is not a wild beast, nor a master like Xie Xun, but a woman. This woman is none other than Yunwen, who exudes a familiar scent.

She was tied so tightly to several iron chains that she couldn't move at all. And she hadn't made any movement since just now. She must have fainted!

When I saw it was her, I immediately ignored everything and rushed to her side. I saw that she was forced to stand there tied up. When I got closer, I found that there were serious wounds all over her right face and right arm, even to the shoulder, which touched her flesh and bones. Her mouth was sealed with a cloth so she couldn't speak.

It is hard to imagine what kind of pain she had gone through before. Watching her flesh being cut off piece by piece, she could not scream in pain. Was this Ling Chi? This was probably only in ancient times that there was such a cruel punishment. Not to mention that she was a weak woman, I couldn't stand it!

I quickly removed the cloth from her mouth and called softly, "Yunwen, Yunwen."

She opened her eyes weakly, and when she saw it was me, tears welled up in her eyes. I wanted to touch her face and comfort her, but several pieces of flesh had been dug out of her right cheek, so I pulled my hand back halfway.

"I'm ugly, right?" Yunwen said.

I shook my head.

"Please go. I don't want you to see me like this. Go back and live a good life with Bailu and the others. Just remember how beautiful I was. Okay?" Yunwen pleaded.

With tears in my eyes, I didn't know whether to say yes or no.

"Who did it? Who hurt you like this? Who made you suffer so much, so much grievance, so much pain that ordinary people cannot bear? Tell me, even if I, Zhou Bo, risk my life, I will avenge you! I won't leave. If we have to leave, we will go together. If you don't want to see yourself like this and want to die, I will accompany you." I said.

"Zhou Bo!" Yunwen shed tears in pain, but those tears were salty and immediately stung the wound on her right cheek, making her scream in pain!

I hurriedly wiped her gently, very carefully, and asked with trembling lips: "Is it that guy? The guy on horseback?"

She nodded and said, "It is it! It has [Kaiyuan], and it survives by relying on Kaiyuan worms. When the worms bite my flesh, they will grow on it. It took a fancy to my body and skin, and was about to swallow it to transform, but unfortunately you came. Kaiyuan worms are extremely fragile, and I can't let you disturb them, so I can only deal with you first, and then let the worms continue to bite my flesh."

"So it wears a mask because it's a face made of animal flesh and blood and can't be seen by humans?" I asked.

Yunwen nodded and said, "Every once in a while, the metabolism of the flesh and blood will begin to age, and it needs new ones, so that face must have been pieced together."

"Okay, now I've set my sights on you. Do you think an ugly monster like this can covet such a pretty face of yours? If it touches your skin, I'll peel off all its skin. If it touches your flesh, I'll peel off all its flesh. Damn it, you dare to touch my woman, don't blame me for my bad temper!" I turned around and shouted at the monster on horseback.

And now I finally understood why it suddenly stopped just now. It was because it was afraid of hurting Yunwen's skin and affecting its habit of collecting flesh and blood, not because of what I said.
