Chapter 057
Looking at the people getting closer and closer, Xuanyuan Jue pushed Yan Yuqing lightly, moved his lips and said silently: "You take her to run first and hide."
Yan Yuqing pulled out the lightning-striking wooden hairpin from her head and put it in Xuanyuan Jue's hand. She stood up and pulled the little girl to run to the side desperately. After running for a long time, she heard no sound of fighting behind her. She only had a "gudong" and a "gudong" for a while, as if a heavy object was rolling on the ground.
The little girl suddenly turned around and called "Dad" worriedly. Yan Yuqing quickly grabbed her, shook her head, and sighed: "They have no thoughts now, and if you go there, you will become like that."
The little girl hesitated for a moment, but ran back and shouted at Xuanyuan Jue: "Don't kill my father."
The person who was fighting with Xuanyuan Jue suddenly heard a sound here, turned around and ran towards her, reaching out to grab her neck, and the girl quickly avoided the back of the tree. Xuanyuan Jue took two steps forward, pulled the little girl behind her, and reached out to stab her.
Black blood flowed out of the man's abdomen.
"Dad, do you recognize me?" the little girl asked with tears in her eyes: "Where is my mother?"
The man was stunned for a moment and seemed to be stimulated, and rushed towards the little girl. Xuanyuan Jue waved his thunder and waved his hand again, and the man slowly fell down.
Xuanyuan Jue dragged him to a big tree and leaned against him. The little girl pulled off the cloth on her body to bandage him. He stopped him and said, "It's not too deep, don't wrap it. It's not good for him to be discovered." As he said, he looked at the other side of Thumb Mountain, then looked at the person lying in the grass and unconscious under his feet, and said, "We must hurry up and pass when we haven't found it yet."
The glow of the morning light sprinkled on the side of Thumb Mountain, and the white mist dissipated. The mountain was between the two peaks, as if it was pushed open from the middle, as if it was picturesque. Yan Yuqing looked at the mountain and felt extremely shocked. Isn’t this mountain the place where she was injured before traveling through time? There is so much jade in it that it makes the richest people crazy.
"Wait" Yan Yuqing looked at the mountain that made her feel scared, and her eyes were filled with a hint of alert. The people just now didn't seem to have come here casually, and it seemed to be protecting someone who came to patrol the mountain.
What to protect?
Yan Yuqinghuan looked around carefully. Apart from the dense jungle, the only mountain in front of him was left.
When she looked at the mountain again, her eyes became clear. She pulled a black jacket from the person who was still lying in the grass and put it on her body, and whispered to Xuanyuan Jue and the others: "Follow me on the road behind."
There are weeds and rocks around Thumb Mountain. If she hadn't been too familiar with this before, most people would probably not even be able to touch the hole when they first came here.
Yan Yuqing took them through the shallow water trapping formation that I don’t know who put, and some shallow traps, and found one of the holes in Thumb Mountain.
There was a person outside the cave entrance, and when he walked in, there was a stone door. The raised stone portraits of the twelve zodiacs on the stone door were a chess game, and they fell randomly in the square.
"It seems to be a formation." Yan Yuqing touched a zodiac with his fingers, and the raised little animal on it was gently slid to the side. She exclaimed: "It can still be moved."
As he was speaking, a faint sound appeared outside the cave, and several rabbit beasts, several times larger than ordinary rabbits, walked towards them with high eyes and stalking.
"What a fat rabbit." The little girl was so happy that she wanted to go up and hug her. Yan Yuqing stopped her and said vigilantly: "They are not ordinary rabbits."
A "hiss" sounded a very thin and light strange sound came from the mouths of these rabbit beasts. Xuanyuan Jue held a steel knife and was waiting for the battle. Since he arrived at the hinterland of Nanzhong, strange things have come one by one, forcing him to wait for the battle.
The rabbit beast with long, sharp and thin fangs exposed began to surround the three of them. Yan Yuqing was a little scared, and the color-changing sapphires on her neck began to change rapidly, blue and purple alternately.
The rabbit beast that pounced on Xuanyuan Jue was fierce and cruel. He tore his clothes apart in a few moves, but the rabbit beast was unharmed. Its speed was astonishingly fast. Xuanyuan Jue holding a steel knife couldn't see the direction even if he wanted to see it.
Yan Yuqing stood in front of the little girl, but the rabbit beast in front of her was not like the one jumping up and down from Xuanyuan Jue. The rabbit beasts standing in front of her seemed fascinated, staring at Yan Yuqing slowly, and her deep blue eyes looked at her for a moment.
"Come here quickly, this monster is too fast, I can't stand it anymore." Xuanyuan Jue, who was surrounded by rabbit beasts, took the time to say this.
Yan Yuqing quickly led the girl to move over. She didn't face the group of rabbit beasts head-on and found that the speed of the rabbit beasts, which had just been slow and dull, instantly became as fast as lightning, and rushed towards them.
Seeing this, Yan Yuqing instinctively faced them. The rabbits instantly moved slowly. The deep blue eyes began to be covered with a layer of blue and purple.
"Can the color-changing sapphires on your neck affect them?" Xuanyuan Jue walked to him, looked at the standing rabbit beast, tied them all up in a few seconds, clapped his hands, and said, "Get ready to go in."
Yan Yuqing stood by the door and began to concentrate and think hard. The twelve zodiac signs would be dangerous when they touched. How can we move to open this door?
She remembered the twelve earthly branches recorded in the secret technique, the method of yin and yang and all things being mutually generated and restrained. Her jade finger moved rapidly, but the door that should have been opened did not move at all, and a series of footsteps came from outside.
Yan Yuqing and the other two quickly dragged the rabbit beasts behind the stone pillar next to the stone cave.
Several people holding the orchid firelight in their hands walked to the front of the gate and gently straightened the last zodiac sign that had no correct position, and the stone gate opened gently.
Yan Yuqing and the other two quietly followed them into the cave. The dark cave was not as full of pearls and jade as she imagined, and their eyes were filled with bright eyes. The wooden barrels were soaked in black and swollen, and the snakes, scorpions and venomous insects crawled away in the bucket, making people furrowed all over.
"Is this?" Yan Yuqing's voice became trembling.
"They actually practice human gu here." Xuanyuan Jue frowned and looked at the neatly arranged wooden barrels. The people in the barrels looked middle-aged. "No wonder there are only old people and children left in that village. It turns out that they are all here."
"Who?" An old woman with a hunched over and completely white hair came over with a basket of herbs. Although her eyes were small, her eyes were as sharp as a torch. She ignored them and grabbed a handful of herbs from the basket and threw them into the wooden barrel.
The poisonous substance, which was originally turbulent and uneasy, calmed down the moment he smelled the herb.
The heart-shaped sapphire on Yan Yuqing's neck flashed slightly invisibly. The old woman changed her kind-hearted eyes and suddenly threw down the medicine basket, attacking her with a fierce look.
Everything came too suddenly. In amazement, Yan Yuqing's neck was already in the hands of the old lady.
"Who gave it to you?" The old lady slowly stretched out her hunched body and turned into a graceful and beautiful woman. She stood in front of her. Her weathered face turned like a peeled egg at this time, white, tender and soft. How could she see a trace of her old look just now? She was simply a natural beauty.
"Is that bitch still dead?" Her white hair fluttered in the wind and began to turn red, burning her beautiful but ferocious face like flames.
The originally dark cave was now red and the lights were intertwined. She roared in pain: "Who are you?!"
Yan Yuqing was so stuck that she was almost breathless. Xuanyuan Jue quietly took out the steel knife and prepared to attack with all his strength. The knife began to twist and bend strangely at the moment it appeared.
"Bang!"
The steel knife breaks!
The tip of the knife flew out, and a shocking knife edge appeared on Xuanyuan Jue's chest. Blood flew out from the tip of the knife and bounced into Yan Yuqing's mouth. His entire mouth was suddenly filled with strong and fishy sweetness.
Yan Yuqing's face changed from red to purple and red, and finally turned to black. If she didn't let go, she would die here.
Xuanyuan Jue took the half-parted knife in his hand and swung it hard, and the withered and shriveled hand on Yan Yuqing's neck instantly released.
"Cough...cough..." She began to breathe heavily, greedily sucking the air with a strong smell of blood. Over there, Xuanyuan Jue had already had a fight with the charming mother-in-law.
Yan Yuqing took advantage of this gap and quickly swept through the hideous people in the wooden barrel.
"Yin Feng is not here", Xuanyuan Jue did not respond to her. When she looked back, Xuanyuan Jue's wound had begun to change color slowly. The red and black blood flowed along her chest to her legs, soaking her satin shoes, and the blood flowed all over the ground. The dark red blood water penetrated into the surrounding weeds, and the grass wilted, turning to burnt brown, shrinking into a ball. When the wind blew, it turned into powder and drifted with the wind.
He was poisoned!
Xuanyuan Jue struggled to block the charming mother-in-law who was pressing step by step. His eyes began to dissipate, and a layer of blue light flowed in his eyes.
Yan Yuqing was shocked and she called out softly: "Xuanyuan Jue."
During the fight, Xuanyuan Jue turned his head and looked here. When he glanced at Yan Yuqing, he didn't stop for a moment. He smiled and comforted softly: "It's okay, you go and wait for me first."
Yan Yuqing's nose was sour and her eyes suddenly turned red. It was already this time, and she was still thinking about her.
At this time, a palm wind hit Xuanyuan Jue's shoulder and a mouthful of blood gushed out.
The charming mother-in-law smiled gloomy and said, "Let's take care of yourself first."
Yan Yuqing stepped forward to support the shaking Xuanyuan Jue. The bloody smell on his body was so pungent that he was stuck to his body and pressed it tightly. I don’t know how much blood had been shed, and his face was so pale.
"Don't kill him." Yan Yuqing helped him take a few steps back skillfully and avoided the erotic mother-in-law's palm.
"Hey, this step is so familiar." She said as she worked hard but was not slow at all. This step was seen by Yan Yuqing in the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams chapter in the marching secret technique recorded on the coffin. This was the first time she used it.
"This is the old man's Kuoyunbu. Who are you?" The charming mother-in-law seemed to be stimulated, and the palm wind followed one after another, making it even more fierce and weird. Before Yan Yuqing could speak, a palm had already hit her chest, blood flowed out of her mouth, and there was a bright red color in front of her.
The sapphire suddenly emitted a mysterious purple light. At this time, Xuanyuan Jue moved around and blocked her palm. His body slowly fell down. His blood-stained body hit the ground like a kite with a broken string. A sharp sword appeared in the hands of the charming mother-in-law at some point.
"No", Yan Yuqing stood in front of Xuanyuan Jue who was unconscious, and a red and green sword blocked the stabbing tip of the sword. The tip of the sword tilted, sliding like a collarbone, and she fell beside Xuanyuan Jue.
This scene was as bizarre as the mural she saw on the mural, blood flowed down her neck and wrapped the sapphire gradually blurred.
