The wind is sunny and the breeze is gentle. The sun shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, reflecting golden spots on the ground.
After being reminded by Qu Fanglong, Wei Tao immediately looked away. He didn't look at the man and woman again.
But the other party seemed to be in a hurry. He had no intention of starting a fight. After coming out of the woods, they turned directly onto another trail and quickly disappeared from sight.
"Huh..." Qu Fanglong secretly exhaled a breath of turbid air and said with a clear heart,
"I didn't expect them to appear deep in the White Mountains."
"Senior Brother Long, who are they?" Wei Tao pushed aside the branches blown down by the wind and rain in front of him and asked curiously.
Qu Fanglong sighed,
"Did you see the logo on the chest and cuffs? They are people from Blackwater, and they may even be core members of Blackwater."
"People from Blackwater?"
"Junior Brother Xu doesn't have much exposure to this aspect, and the core members of Blackwater rarely appear in front of others, so it's normal not to know." Qu Fanlong looked up at the blue sky, thinking slowly and continued.
"Seriously speaking, what I know is only a rough idea. I only know that in the underground world of the entire Baishan area, the words "White Mountain and Black Water" are equivalent to an irreversible order, mysterious and powerful, and unrivaled. Even the Parliament of Baishan , MPs who control violent organizations will not easily conflict with Blackwater, which is why I just backed away."
"Brother Long, what do you mean, the people in Black Water are all powerful?" Wei Tao's eyes became more curious,
"So, how do they practice?"
"They are definitely powerful, especially the core members inside. Not to mention you and me, even the old man is no match. What's more, they are a strict organization, and they are not comparable to a small inheritance school like ours. "Qu Fanglong sighed as he said,
"But Junior Brother Xu, you don't have to worry too much. Today is a chance encounter between Dao Zuo and us. Normally, we basically have no interaction with them. To say the least, even if there is a contact conflict, as long as the real interests of Heishui are not touched, we Once the bleeding stops, the matter will be over." Wei Tao nodded.
"We don't mess with them, and they ignore us. This is a good relationship."
"Junior Brother Xu is right." Qu Fanglong laughed, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, took a sip, and then popped it out from between his mouth and nose.
"In the eyes of the core members of White Mountain and Black Water, unless we block their way, a small family like us is not worthy of them taking a second look, so..." Halfway through the words, he suddenly fell silent.
He let the cigarette burn quietly between his fingers without bringing it to his mouth for a puff. Qu Fanlong narrowed his eyes, and a faint light flashed in his eyes, reflecting the figures of the man and woman who went out and returned.
"They are back again. The key is that there is no one else around except us."
"Xiao Yao, if something goes wrong later, remember to turn around and leave. Never look back."
"If I haven't come home, you should tell the old man that my friend and I have invested in a business, and we will be very busy recently..." Qu Fanglong slowly exhaled a breath, pinched out the cigarette butt, and let out a breath of smoke. A soft sound.
"Are they planning to cause trouble for us?"
"Just because I was at the edge of the forest just now and took another look at them?" Wei Tao lowered his eyes and slowly moved his neck, and suddenly there was a continuous crunching sound.
"They are just bullying the weak. A weak and helpless soul like mine cannot withstand such ups and downs."
"So, when faced with this situation, we have to take the moral high ground and kill them without mercy."
"If you don't die, then turn around and run away. After practicing hard to improve, then turn back and continue to work." A man and a woman are very fast, even in the mountains, they are walking on flat ground.
In just a dozen breaths, he has come from far away. A smile appeared on Qu Fanlong's face, while he was still thinking about how to speak.
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded next to his ears, instantly disrupting all his thoughts.
"What are you looking at?" Wei Tao slowly took a step forward, lowering his body slightly.
"And you, what are you looking at!?"
"Do you know that rushing towards me like this makes me feel very scared!?" Gudong!
Qu Fanglong choked on his breath. Not only did he not believe his ears, he even thought that he hadn't woken up yet and was lying in bed falling into a dream.
A man and a woman stopped a few meters away, with equally strange and unclear expressions on their faces. Beside the mountain road, it suddenly became silent.
Only the autumn wind blows slowly, making the grass leaves rustle.
"Little brother, we don't mean any harm." After a moment, the woman between the two said with a smile on her face and a soft tone,
"We came back to find you two. Actually, we just wanted to ask for directions." The man opened his wallet and took out a few banknotes.
"This is a reward for the two of you. If we can take us to the Black Stone Forest next to Baize Pond as soon as possible, we will definitely give you a lot of thanks." Baize Pond is exactly where they are planning to camp.
What is the purpose of these two people going there? More importantly, if what these two people said is true, then they don't seem to be locals in the Baishan area, otherwise they wouldn't be asking about the location of the Black Stone Forest here.
Qu Fanglong's mind flashed with lightning, and he didn't know how many thoughts he had passed through in that instant. He tugged on Wei Tao's sleeves, then took a step forward and stood among several people.
Qu Fanglong said slowly while thinking,
"Although Baizetan is named after a pool, its area is not small at all, and can even be compared with a lake. Therefore, if you two only want to go to the pool, then you can just go north from here. However, if you want to We are going to the Black Stone Forest, and I think it is best to find a boat first, or take a car from the bottom of the mountain and go around the entire Baize Lake, so that we can reach the other side of the Black Stone Forest."
"That's it, thank you for reminding me." The woman in black sportswear nodded, took the banknote from her companion, took out a high-quality metal nameplate from her pocket, and handed it over.
"We are destined to meet each other. What's more, we have received enthusiastic help from both of you, so a little reward is not disrespectful. I hope you two will not refuse." She smiled and directly stuffed the money and nameplate into Qu Fanglong's hands.
"This is a business card that can represent my identity. If anything happens in the Baishan area in the future, you can use it to seek help from Heishui directly." A man and a woman quickly left and disappeared deep into the dense mountain forest.
"I earned two thousand yuan from just a few words."
"Junior Brother Xu, you must have seen it, Senior Brother, I have such a big face." Qu Fanglong flicked the banknotes in his hand, handed half of it to Wei Tao.
After thinking for a moment, he stuffed the nameplate over again.
"Junior Brother Xu, you should hold this thing. If Xiao Fu sees it later, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it clearly. What's more, with such a straightforward character, Junior Brother, with this Blackwater business card by his side, will be able to It can avoid a lot of trouble." Wei Tao took the nameplate, felt its heavy weight, and was about to stuff it into his pocket, but suddenly stopped.
This thing seems a little strange. After getting it in his hand, he felt a little inexplicable disgust. Wei Tao frowned slightly and fell into thought.
After a moment, a flash of light suddenly appeared, and the memory of not long ago suddenly came to mind. On that desolate rainy night, he looked at the blocked school campus from a distance and detected this irritating and disgusting atmosphere.
So, could this metallic, strange-looking business card be related to something on campus?
So, what thoughts and purpose did the woman in black have in giving this thing to them? He rubbed the somewhat cold metal surface, carefully feeling the vague and vague aura, and quickly immersed himself in it with all his energy.
Snapped! Qu Fanglong lit another cigarette,
"Junior brother, would you like to take one? It will refresh your mind and calm your mood."
"Smoking is bad for your health. You should smoke less." Wei Tao shook his head and put the nameplate in his pocket.
"I heard from Brother Shenhu that Junior Brother Xu is a top student who has gone to university?"
"It's just an average school. Senior Brother Long said this about me, but it lowered the level of top students."
"That's better than me, at least you still went to college." Qu Fanglong asked again,
"What kind of work does Junior Brother Xu plan to do in the future? Do you have any overall ideas and plans for the future?" Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and turned around to take a look.
"Entrain the Qi to temper the body, practice meditation, and don't think about anything else."
"You, you are more stubborn than my father." Qu Fanglong sighed,
"Forget it, I'm just asking for trouble by telling you this. I might as well lead you to do things directly. This time I brought my junior brother out to play. I actually wanted to introduce two friends to you. Their families are also relatively wealthy. Among them One of them also has a special relationship with our Guanshan sect. Therefore, as long as we can maintain a relationship with them in the future, we will not only become rich and noble, but we will at least be able to live with food and clothing for half of our lives..." It doesn't matter. When he didn't get a response, Qu Fanglong kept talking to himself, and even began to imagine the wonderful scene after the business became bigger.
Two hours later, the two arrived at their destination. Clear water, green mountains, white clouds and blue sky. From time to time, the cool autumn wind blows by, causing ripples on the water of Baizetan.
Two cars were parked on the dirt road in the distance. Several men and women chose a piece of flat land and were carrying things down to set up a camp for accommodation.
A young man put down his tools and came over with a smile.
"Fang Long, I thought you would come here after dinner, but I didn't expect that you can run faster than us on two legs. You are indeed a practitioner, and your physical fitness is really enviable." Qu Fanglong said,
"When the two old men begged you to learn from them, you dismissed them and made some futile arguments, which made my father and your father so angry. Only a few years later, you regretted it? "
"It's impossible to regret, not in this life. I'm not that material, and I can't bear the hardship. The key is that it's useless to learn, so the best choice is not to get in touch, and there will be no response. troubles."
"Who is this?" The young man said this and turned to look at Wei Tao.
"His name is Xu Yao, he is a closed disciple accepted by the old man." Qu Fanglong sighed,
"To be honest, I am also a useless person who cannot be counted on. From now on, the inheritance of our Guanshan Sect will be carried forward by Junior Brother Xu." After some introduction, Wei Tao found out that the young man's name was Yu Yue, and his family ran a business. The company is somewhat famous in the entire Baishan area.
Another young man named Xiaodong owns two supermarkets in the city and is considered a wealthy second generation.
A little further away, there were several young girls chatting. Two of them are female companions brought by Yu Yue and Xiaodong, and the other one is named Xiao Fu, who has a very close relationship with Qu Fanglong.
But what really caught Wei Tao's attention was the last tall, short-haired woman. She sat under a tree and barely said a word from beginning to end.
Just quietly looking at the jade-green water, I don't know what I am thinking about.
"Junior Brother Xu, have you seen that girl too?" Qu Fanglong came over and whispered,
"She is what I told you about Fifty Years Less Struggle, Bai Li, the daughter of the Baishan Group. Even if we were tied together, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to compare to the size of a subsidiary of her family. If it weren't for Yu Yue and her were classmates before, and it is impossible for us to have anything to do with her. The key is that she is a master who hides deeply. Senior brother, I am afraid that if I can't last ten breaths in her hands, I will be beaten until I surrender. …”
"Oh?" Wei Tao suddenly became interested and took another look. Just when Bai Li turned his head, his eyes were quiet and cold, and he looked over here.
The eyes of the two sides intertwined, they collided in the void, and then they separated. Wei Tao lowered his eyes, and a wave of light flashed in his eyes.
When they looked at each other for a moment, he felt a different kind of familiar aura from her body. He closed his eyes and meditated, and soon found the source of this familiarity.
A dark alley on a rainy night, next to a garbage dump. A confrontation between lightning and flint. The guy who was shot with nails in his face and stabbed with a knife, and he was still alive and kicking.
It seems to have some similarities with her. When Wei Tao thought of this, the woman who seemed to have an immortal body flashed in his mind, as well as the feeling when the blade was pierced into her body. Suddenly, he had some inspiration, wondering whether it could be used in the practice of entraining Qi and tempering the body.
While he was helping to set up the camp and set up the barbecue grill, he had already begun to conduct deeper research and deductions in his mind, and was completely immersed in it.
Bai Li sat under the tree and looked at the busy people from a distance, with a faint smile in her eyes. It was a bit fun to listen to them chat and brag, but that was about it.
After all, since the last incident, she and they are no longer in the same world, and will eventually drift apart until there is no more intersection.
Soon after, the rich aroma of meat gradually wafted out. Yu Yue walked to the tree beside the pond and said a little awkwardly,
"The meat has been roasted. Bai Li, would you like to go over and eat it now?" Bai Li raised her head with an indifferent smile on her face.
"You guys eat first. I'm not hungry yet. I'll just have some fruit after dinner later." Yu Yue moved his lips, wanting to invite him again.
Bai Li suddenly frowned and didn't let him continue. Her ears twitched slightly, as if listening to the sounds coming from the wind.
"I'm going to relax, you don't have to worry about me." The next moment, Bai Li slowly stood up and walked towards the woods on one side.
A little further away. Wei Tao came back to his senses from the deduction, glanced in the direction Bai Li left, then withdrew his gaze and fell into deep thinking again.
He could vaguely sense that someone had appeared in the forest, and he didn't know if it was related to the mysterious Bai Li.
But this is everyone else's business. It has nothing to do with him. As long as they don't block his way and don't mess with him, it doesn't matter if others blow up the mountain in front of them.
"From observing the mountain to entering the mountain, my mental strength has improved a lot."
"And I even felt a hint of agility from the breath, like a weakened version of the interaction between heaven and man. The spirit resonates with the sky, and the body breathes with the earth."
"Think further, the practice method in the mountains also strengthens and tempers the physical body. If I replace the true energy of qi and blood with the qi that I draw, and then regard a trace of agility in it as the spiritual will of Brahma, will I be able to Do you want to practice horizontally again on the basis of entraining Qi and tempering the body?"
"You can even try it on my Vajra Dharma Body..." At this moment, there was a sudden snap.
It came from far away in the forest. Qu Fanglong and Yu Yue looked at each other, their expressions instantly becoming surprised and solemn.
But before they could react. A series of explosions came at the same time.
"It's a gunfight!"
"And it was a big gunfight!"
"I didn't expect to encounter something like this. The intensity of the confrontation just now is definitely not the firepower that ordinary gangs can possess. If we are involved, there is only one word of death." The two of them shuddered and fiercely fought each other. The female companion fell to the ground and began to search for the nearest cover.
Wei Tao rolled and hid behind the mound. His expression was expressionless, and he looked down over his left shoulder. There was a hole in the clothes there.
The green and black color of the skin gradually faded away, and the big tendons like chains disappeared. A flattened bullet fell down and was caught in his palm.
The fingers suddenly exerted force, and the warhead was pinched into a thin piece. Wei Tao raised his head and looked deep into the woods. There were already clouds between his brows, which were almost dripping with water.
"I just came out to have a meal."
"As a result, my enthusiastic thinking and reasoning was interrupted, and the food stall I had just set up was even overturned."
"Since you won't let me eat, then don't eat at all." The dense gunfire quickly became sparse. Others took this opportunity and ran all the way to the car.
Qu Fanglong got into the passenger seat, watched Yu Yue ignite the engine, and urged the two women in the back to close the door quickly.
His expression suddenly changed,
"Where is Junior Brother Xu, where has he gone?"
"And Miss Bai, she seems to have gone to the forest where the gunfight took place." Yu Yue's female companion said,
"We are crowded with four people here. Xu Yao should get into Xiaodong's car." As he spoke, another car had raised a large cloud of dust and roared away as quickly as possible.
Qu Fanglong looked around and nodded slightly.
"Junior Brother Xu is no longer at Tanbian, he should be in Xiaodong's car." Yu Yue took a deep breath and exhaled loudly,
"Fang Long, take the two of them away. I invited Miss Bai to relax. If something happens to her, my family will be finished." Kacha made a soft sound.
Qu Fanglong had already opened the door and jumped out. He closed the car door hard,
"You are too weak. You will only die if you go there, so it is safer for me to go there." A figure was like a ghost, walking quickly through the dense forest.
Soon after, a large number of dead people began to appear on the ground, holding various long and short firearms in their hands. Wei Tao remained expressionless and continued to move forward.
The flame in his heart was burning brighter and stronger. Suddenly there was a soft sound from Kacha. It came from the side and the front. Wei Tao suddenly stepped on the ground and suddenly turned sharply.
Twenty meters away, a middle-aged man was hiding behind a tree, his calloused hands still trembling slightly. He tightly held the gun in his hand, as if this was the only way to alleviate the helplessness and fear in his heart.
Scenes flashed before my eyes. The middle-aged man tried to calm down and forced himself not to think about what had just happened.
At this moment, he would rather face the hail of bullets than face that terrifying woman again like now.
He never thought that a little girl who looked weak and weak could be so bloody and cruel.
Facing an entire team of mercenaries, one person could not only break through, but even kill them with heavy casualties, leaving no one alive.
"If I had known this, I wouldn't have dared to take on this task no matter how much money I was given."
"I was so driven that I plunged headlong into the battle between the golden ring and the white mountains and black waters." Using the cover of the bushes, the middle-aged man moved his body carefully, preparing to retreat and leave the place.
Suddenly, his whole body tensed up and he stared at the legs that appeared in front of him. With almost no hesitation, he pulled the trigger.
But with a bang from Katcha. The slender barrel was held by a big hand with black skin and twisted muscles, and was crushed into a ball of scrap metal.
The middle-aged man's eyes widened suddenly. But before he could react, he was picked up from the ground by his neck.
"Spare, spare my life!"
"This is the battle between Golden Ring and Black Water. We people are just..." He was extremely frightened, but before he could even finish his words, he felt a huge force coming in, as if all his consciousness was condensed, Then it is released like a goddess scattering flowers.
Peng! The gunman's head exploded. Various colors splashed everywhere, covering a large area of the ground.
"You had a gun, but I was unarmed, and I was bullied by you like this." Plop! Wei Tao let go and let the body fall to the ground.
He turned around little by little and looked at the man and woman who were slowly approaching. The two of them looked to be in their twenties, no more than thirty at most, and their clothes were quite trendy and weird.
The man is a little better. Except for a leather jacket studded with gold buttons, he is no different from ordinary people in other aspects.
Mainly because of that woman, her hair was dyed in various colors, there were two huge gold rings hanging on her ears, and she wore a pair of thigh-high boots under her shorts. No matter how you looked at her, she was very different from a normal person.
Bang bang bang! Crisp applause sounded, breaking the quiet silence in the forest beside the pond.
"I didn't expect that in addition to the woman named Bai, Heishui would also join a powerful person like you."
"So this time our action kills two birds with one stone, and there are also unexpected surprises." The woman looked at the bulging muscles under Wei Tao's clothes with an intoxicated expression on her face.
"Such a strong man, you are much stronger than Silver Snake."
"I didn't feel the aura of awakening power, so he is actually just an ordinary person."
"But having said that, an ordinary person can actually burst out with such power. It is worthy of careful dissection and study." The man retracted his gaze with a cold smile on his face.
"Hongqi, believe it or not, I only need three seconds to take him down."
"You don't need three seconds, I'll give you five seconds." Hongxiao laughed so hard that her branches trembled, and her golden ring rang in her ears.
"As long as you can take him down within five seconds, I will stay with you for five days."
"This is what you said. Just don't cry and beg for mercy when the time comes."
"If you meet me here, I can only tell you that your fate is bad. You deserve to die today." Silver Snake laughed wildly and rushed forward with a lunge.
Boom! ! Suddenly there was a strong wind. It seemed like a tornado vortex was formed. At the same time, a loud noise exploded in the forest.
In an instant, the vegetation was scattered and dust was flying. There were also large amounts of scarlet liquid splashing everywhere. Mixed with fine pieces of meat and bone, it crackled in the forest.
Hong Li licked off a piece of meat stuck to the corner of her lips and put it into her mouth to chew slowly.
"Yin Snake, you are so disgusting. I just had lunch, and you..." At this moment, a gust of mountain wind blew by, bringing with it the faint moisture and moisture, and blew away the lingering moisture. Large clouds of smoke.
Um! ? She closed her mouth abruptly, her eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty, and stared at the figure standing silently not far away.
That person turned out not to be Silver Snake. He doesn't seem to be that strong young man. Instead, it was a humanoid monster that was over three meters tall, with skin as black as iron and thick ribs like chains.
So what just exploded like fireworks was the Silver Snake with the awakened power, and the rather strong young man?
Both of them exploded? More importantly, how did this monster appear here and why she didn't feel anything unusual from beginning to end.
"Could it be that this place has actually become a reflection folding area and I have fallen into it unknowingly?"
"No, that's not right. Even in the reflection folding area, such a humanoid monster has never appeared before..." Many thoughts came to his mind for a moment, and Hong Fei stood still, his body still tense to the extreme.
"You spoke in a very loud tone, and you thought you were so powerful that you asked me to attack with all my strength at any cost." Wei Tao slowly exhaled a breath, lowered his head and looked down. His already ferocious face was even more twisted with anger.
"Is this the result?"
"Apart from the slippery film that looks like snake scales, it's useless. It's just making fun of an honest character like me."
"Even that layer of membrane, as long as I pierce it with force, the inside will shatter and collapse at the touch of a touch. I never thought it could be so weak. It's beyond the bottom line of weakness." Wei Tao crossed his hands. Stacked, making a sound like gold and iron.
in the cited
Under the surge of "qi", the muscles and muscles also thumped, as if they had come to life and had a special spirituality.
"I hope you can be stronger."
"This way you won't let me down, and you can go more smoothly." Boom! ! Suddenly the wind picked up again, causing thunder to rumble.
A cyclone suddenly descended, tearing apart large branches and leaves of vegetation and pouring into the increasingly swollen body.
Wei Tao suddenly stepped forward and stepped on the ground. Amidst the sudden shaking and roar, he appeared in front of Hong Xi without any warning.
The red eyes solidified. In her sight, everything else seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the inhuman and ferocious body, waving its arms as thick as logs, slamming down its ferocious and huge fists.
The red boy's hole shrank to the extreme, and inside it was not only fear and despair, but also unbelievable madness.
"I won't die!" She screamed horribly, blood spurted out from her seven orifices, and dozens of scarlet tentacles shot out from her body like lightning, intertwining and coming towards her.
winter! ! The woods beside Baize Pond trembled slightly. There is a big hole in the ground. Wei Tao slowly stood up straight and looked down at a broken tentacle at his feet.
"Aside from being equally weak, you succeeded in making me feel sick." He crushed the still twisting tentacles into powder with one kick, turned around and looked behind him.
Wei Tao showed a gentle smile on his face and waved to Qu Fanglong, who seemed to have lost his soul. Countless pieces of bone and minced meat immediately fell from his body.
"Senior Brother Long, they bully the weak and have been bullying me."
