The sound of conversation came from afar on the wind.
In the grass on the hill, Yu Ye looked at Bai Zhi beside him, and Bai Zhi was also looking at him. Although they were so close to each other, they no longer felt the awkwardness before. Instead, they looked solemn and looked at each other and nodded.
The conversations were far apart, intermittent, and disappeared. The monk's hearing is much better than that of ordinary people, so it is not difficult to hear something.
Just a few sentences such as Chen Qi, Overseas, Gao Ren, Tiger Leaping Gorge, etc. are enough to guess the origin of the interlocutor.
Those four people were monks from Qizhou. They learned from Chen Qi's mouth the place where the overseas master died, and with the path drawn by him, they came to Lingjiao Valley to find out.
That’s probably the whole story!
The remains of the overseas monks have been burned cleanly by the dust, leaving nothing behind.
"That senior brother of yours is very evil!"
"Master has expelled him from the Taoist sect. He is not my senior brother!"
"What would you do if you saw him?"
"What else can I do, seek revenge from him. He deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors, and he deserves to die. But I am not his opponent, are you willing to help me?"
"cannot!"
"Why?"
"You have taken revenge. Who will repay the blood debt in my village?"
"He just died, what's the difference? That's all, let's talk about the present."
"Wait a moment, it's not too late to leave."
"What should those four people do if they pass by here?"
"If that's true, you and I should run for our lives separately!"
"You are a man rumored to be deadly, how can you escape without a fight?"
"Hmph, if you can't beat me, of course you have to escape. As for the so-called rumors, they are just spreading lies to ruin my reputation. You believe it!"
During the voice conversation, Bai Zhi glanced at her.
She knew that Yu Ye was not telling lies.
Just like when she first saw Yu Ye killing someone outside Xingyuan Valley, she was shocked and confused. Yu Ye faced the ambush of two Qizhou monks alone. He remained calm in the face of danger and used various tricks to kill one person on the spot. His cunning, his ferocity, his elusive invisibility, and his unparalleled sword energy, even if you look at Daze, there are few who can match him. And he was only sixteen years old, and a few months ago he was imprisoned in the Cliff Cave in Xuanhuang Mountain at her mercy. What happened in just a few months to transform a young mountain boy into a master of Taoism? At that moment, she believed even more deeply in what her master said before she died. So she stepped in to help, no matter the cost or consequences, because she knew she would win!
And the fatal boy and the one in front of him seemed to be different people. Maybe she was familiar with the boy in front of her, maybe she admired the wild and life-threatening boy more. Which one is the real him, it's not clear for a moment.
"Those guys won't leave, ugh——"
A bonfire was lit on the hillside a few miles away. Four Qizhou monks were sitting around the fire, obviously planning to spend the night there.
Yu Ye sighed and said, "Miss Bai..."
Bai Zhi reminded him: "Call me Senior Sister!"
"Miss Bai!"
"Senior sister!"
Yu Ye didn't allow Bai Zhi to correct him again, and said anxiously: "I call you Bai Zhi, it's up to you whether you agree or not!"
"Um!"
Bai Zhi actually agreed and said: "As long as you have me as senior sister in your heart, why bother about the title!"
"I don't care..."
Before Yu Ye finished speaking, he quickly changed his words and said, "I'm asking you if you can go around this place and avoid those guys, otherwise the night will be long and you will have many dreams!"
Bai Zhi pursed her lips and smiled, thinking: "It is blocked by high mountains and there are many wild animals. It is difficult to get around this place!"
Yu Ye couldn't help but bury his head in the grass, and said helplessly: "I'm not afraid of wild beasts, but I am afraid that there will be nowhere to hide after dawn..."
"Roar--"
Suddenly there was a roar in the distance, and the huge valley seemed to tremble.
In an instant, a gust of fishy wind swept through the night sky.
Yu Ye was suddenly startled and looked up.
I saw a crescent moon rising just above the top of the mountain a few miles away. Under the moonlight, a white beast raised its head and roared. Its dull roar shook the world, as if a king had descended and looked down upon the world.
Then he heard Bai Zhi whisper in his ear: "The king of beasts in Tiger Leaping Gorge, the White Tiger!"
"White Tiger?"
"I heard from the elders in my family that the white tiger appears in spring and autumn and hibernates in winter and summer, so it is rare to see it. But when it appears, there will be a bloody disaster!"
"Those guys are going to be in trouble, hey!"
Yu Ye was a little gloating about his misfortune.
It must have been the light of the bonfire that attracted the white tiger, and the four Qizhou monks who lit the fire were at the foot of the mountain. His and Bai Zhi's hiding place was several miles away. If there is a bloody disaster, it should have nothing to do with the two of them.
"The white tiger may not be able to hurt the monks, let alone the four Qi refining masters..."
When Bai Zhi was suspicious, another howl came.
"Woo——"
Under the bright moon, on the top of the mountain, next to the white tiger, a white figure appeared again. It turned out to be a white wild wolf, raising its head and howling into the sky. Although its howling is not as shocking as that of the white tiger, it is low and long-lasting, and its whimpering can be heard for hundreds of miles.
At the same time, wolf howls sounded from all directions.
"Woo——"
"Woo-"
"Uuuuuu——"
Yu Ye and Bai Zhi both changed their expressions.
On the mountaintops, rocky slopes, and jungles around the valley, wild wolves appeared one after another. There were probably hundreds or thousands of them, and they gathered densely across the valley from all directions.
Yu Ye no longer cared about gloating about his misfortune, he only felt horrified. He couldn't help taking a breath of cold air and said in shock: "What kind of luck is this? Not only meeting the white tiger, but also meeting the Wolf King and so many wild wolves!"
He was born as an Orion and was no stranger to wild beasts. That white wild wolf should be the leader of the wolf pack, the wolf king!
Bai Zhi also shook her head in disbelief and said softly: "Have you forgotten the rules of winter hunting? You are not allowed to enter Lingjiao Valley without permission, and you are not allowed to go even half a step into Lingjiao Valley. The hunting areas are limited to Leopard Tail Gorge and Tiger Leaping Gorge. And Kucao Gorge. It’s precisely because there are so many ferocious beasts that it’s so dangerous and unpredictable. I saw it with my own eyes today, and it’s true!”
"Maybe it doesn't matter..."
"Um……"
A group of wild wolves ran toward the fire on the hillside.
The four foundation-building monks seemed a little panicked. They each summoned their flying swords, but their retreat was cut off. In the blink of an eye, they were surrounded by wolves.
"Yes, I remember that the fifth uncle said that even if the mountain is blocked by heavy snow, open fires should be used with caution in Lingjiao Valley. Now it is autumn, and the vegetation is lush. White Tiger thought that someone set fire to the mountain, and the wrongdoer has his fault and the debtor has his debtor."
"Let's wait and see what happens, maybe we can take the opportunity to escape..."
Both of them were lucky.
Then I heard the wolf king howling on the top of the mountain: "Woo——"
The wild wolves in the valley seemed to have received an order and suddenly ran wildly. Under the night, gray shadows swept across the valley and through the grass, heading straight towards the four people on the hillside. The four monks hurriedly activated their flying swords, and the shining sword light circled around the fire. However, a wild wolf rushed forward and was instantly shattered by the sword light, with flesh and blood flying everywhere. More wild wolves followed...
Yu Ye looked at the tragic scene and was slightly moved.
He has seen the ferocity and cunning of wild wolves, but he has never seen such a desperate battle without fear of death. The four monks are not ordinary hunters. They are all highly skilled and have sharp flying swords. As long as they stick to the defense, it will be a cruel massacre.
"Oh, the Wolf King is also stupid, how can he let the tribe die in vain?"
"If you were the Wolf King, how would you respond?"
"First use a few wild wolves to test, making it difficult for the four monks to join forces, and then use a pack of wolves to attack and attack them separately."
"If the Lihuo Talisman is sacrificed, how can the wolves resist it?"
"If you can't resist, take shelter for the time being and use the wolves to trap these hateful guys. Once someone breaks out, take the opportunity to bite him hard. It's an honor to be defeated in such a disastrous way, and the wolf nature will never die!"
"Are you talking about wolf nature, or your true nature?"
"I...you are using words and tricks again. I am telling you..."
"No, just chatting..."
The fight was going on in the distance, and the scene was shocking.
Yu Ye and Bai Zhi were hiding in the grass chatting, as if they were really not involved. Just as the two were arguing, they looked behind them in unison.
A group of gray figures appeared on the hill behind them, and they turned out to be hundreds of wild wolves. Suddenly discovering the two people in the grass, the wolves panicked for a moment and then pounced with bared teeth.
Yu Ye and Bai Zhi exchanged helpless looks, jumped up suddenly, held each other's swords in their hands, and swung out a sword light.
There was a flash of blood, and several wild wolves flew out.
The two took the opportunity to run across the hill, followed by a pack of wild wolves. More wild wolves noticed the movement here and rushed over from a distance. Four monks from Qizhou thought that their companions had appeared to rescue them, so they also tried to break through and came to get together.
"Oops!"
Yu Ye secretly exclaimed that something was wrong.
"Roar--"
Another tiger roar echoed through the valley, which was frightening.
"Wait!"
"ah?"
Yu Ye waved his hand and said: "This road is blocked..."
"Um!"
Bai Zhi seemed to understand, turned around and walked quickly. And in the direction she was going, there was a mountain hundreds of feet high. She went over the mountains while being chased by a pack of wolves?
"I mean……"
Yu Ye didn't have time to say anything more, so he had to chase after him.
Several wild wolves rushed over to block the way, and were chopped down by the two men one after another with their swords.
Bai Zhi moved one step faster and reached the foot of the mountain in a blink of an eye. Then she flew up and tried to climb up the wall. Her idea was not bad. If she was at a high place, she could escape from the siege of wolves and get rid of the four Qizhou monks. But just as she jumped up, before she touched the mountain wall, she suddenly saw centipedes and venomous snakes emerging from the cracks in the rocks. She was so frightened that she fell down in the air with an "ouch".
Yu Ye came next and reached out to pick it up.
Bai Zhiren was in mid-air and had returned to normal. When she was about to turn over and land on the ground, she was grabbed around the waist. When she was struggling in panic, she suddenly collided with Yu Ye. Yu Ye couldn't hold back, and the two of them fell down with a "plop", and then hurriedly avoided it. When they got up, they were each in a panic.
"No rules..."
Bai Zhi concealed her embarrassment in the rush,
"You are also an Orion. You don't understand the rules. You are seeking your own death by climbing the mountain at this time."
Although Yu Ye's face was slightly red, he was confident.
"I follow what you said..."
"Did I ask you to climb the mountain? Not to mention there are many snakes and insects at night. Even if you get rid of the wolves, those guys will imitate you. Wouldn't it be more dangerous..."
At this moment, a figure rushed over through the wolves' pursuit.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your help—"
The two forgot about the quarrel and looked at each other...
