Under the dim moonlight, several black shadows were torn apart, making them even more eerie and terrifying.
Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan panted and chased all the way, but still let the shadow man run away.
The two searched for a while unwillingly, but still couldn't find any clues, so they could only continue on their way angrily.
A few days later, the two came to Cangzhou Mansion. Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan went to visit their old acquaintances from the Weiyuan Escort Bureau, and through them they learned about some of the latest developments of the Ye You League in Cangzhou.
Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan rested in a nearby inn for two days, then walked around the streets looking for the person they were looking for.
The two of them searched around for more than an hour before they found Yeyou League's secret base in Cangzhou.
This is an inconspicuous small courtyard located on the outskirts of Cangzhou. From the outside, it looks no different from ordinary houses. It's just that there is an observation tower in the corner of the courtyard, which makes the whole building look a bit weird.
"Qin Chuan, are you sure this is here?" Su Qiqi looked at the building in front of her and asked in a low voice.
Qin Chuan carefully observed the surroundings, nodded slightly and said, "Yes, this is it." After saying that, he got off his horse and cautiously approached the outer wall of the courtyard.
Qin Chuan stood by the wall and observed for a while, then called Su Qiqi over.
Su Qiqi walked closer, glanced at the enemy pointed by Qin Chuan, and asked doubtfully: "Why are there traces of the eagle hook here? Could it be that someone has already entered before us..."
Qin Chuan also looked puzzled and stared at the hook mark silently for a while, then said to himself: "Maybe Mrs. Wu has been here..."
"Mrs. Wu?" Su Qiqi was stunned for a moment and said in confusion: "She is also from the Ye You League. Why didn't she just go in openly and secretly?"
Qin Chuan shook his head and hissed softly, and the two of them hid in the darkness of the corner.
As soon as the two of them stood still, they saw a nimble figure leaping out of the wall, carrying a baggage and heading towards the path.
Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan looked at each other. Qin Chuan reacted first and asked, "Su'er, do you want to follow?"
Su Qiqi hesitated for a moment, nodded, and the two followed quietly.
They followed the shadow for a cup of tea, but saw the man suddenly slow down, as if he was waiting for someone.
Su Qiqi couldn't help but feel a little bit in her heart. She patted Qin Chuan's arm and whispered, "Did she lure us here on purpose? Could her accomplices have set up an ambush here?"
Qin Chuan was speechless for a moment when he was asked. Seeing the strange behavior of the man in front of him, he became a little uneasy. However, he still pretended to smile calmly and comforted Su Qiqi: "It's okay. As long as the alliance leader doesn't come, this little There’s nothing to fear from the minions…”
When Su Qiqi saw what he said, she couldn't help but smile and said jokingly: "What if the leader of the alliance comes..."
Before they finished speaking, a strange wind suddenly blew from the ground behind the two of them!
Su Qiqi had a bad feeling, so she grabbed Qin Chuan's arm and jumped away.
As soon as the two of them ducked out of the way, they saw a figure rushing towards them in the wind and sand.
Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan hurriedly waved their swords to fight. The three of them were fighting together instantly. The figure that was originally in front of them also came around and joined the battle.
The two sides competed one on one, and Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan gradually fell behind and could only grit their teeth and try to hold on.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Su Qiqi hurriedly shouted to Qin Chuan: "Quick, use the soul-eating water!"
Qin Chuan didn't seem to hear, and was still fighting fiercely with the master who suddenly appeared.
Seeing Qin Chuan's unresponsiveness, Su Qiqi was worried, thinking Qin Chuan might not be able to get away. I can only think of a solution myself.
She increased the speed of her attacks, stabbing the masked man carrying the baggage with one sword.
The masked man showed no sign of weakness. Not only did he catch her sword moves steadily, he also took the time to throw the bag to the side of the road and took out several hidden weapons from his arms.
Su Qiqi became even more anxious. She made a dangerous move with her sword and deliberately used a flaw to let the masked man get closer. Then when the other party was caught off guard, she threw the soul-eating water in time.
The masked man realized that there was a trick and quickly withdrew his move and jumped away, but it was still half a step too late. The back of one hand was splashed a little by the soul-eating water, and the skin and flesh were immediately torn open, revealing the white bones. She screamed in pain.
Su Qiqi took advantage of her temporary loss of combat power and quickly turned around to help Qin Chuan. The two of them worked together to barely hold on for a while. Got a chance to escape.
On the other side, Nangong Yu, Nangong Yue and Luo Xiaoshi were also surrounded by dangers along the way. The three of them were ambushed many times before they arrived at Ziyun Mountain. Fortunately, he met the master of Lingyue Cave by chance on the road. With her help, he successfully broke out of the encirclement. He only suffered some minor injuries and finally arrived at Lingyue Cave in Ziyun Mountain without any danger.
The three of them told the master of Lingyue Cave in detail about Ye Youmeng's coming to steal the treasure. Ling Yue Cave Master was so angry that she almost burst into smoke. After scolding Yeyou League up and down, her mood calmed down a little.
After some calm thinking, she decided to come up with a plan to escape from the golden cicada's shell and move the treasure to another place, so that the other party's bamboo basket would be empty.
With the cooperation of Nangong Yu and others, the master of Lingyue Cave promptly transferred several important magic weapons in the cave. These magical weapons were the result of her years of research and refining, and she didn't want people from the Yeyou League to take advantage of them.
After the transfer of the magic weapon was completed, she and Nangong Yu went to the highest peak of Ziyun Mountain and waited, waiting to see the embarrassment of the Yeyou League people in vain.
Unexpectedly, the leader of the Ye You League jumped into the air and was very angry. Not only did he let his men set fire to Lingyue Cave, but he also ordered the disciples of Yeyou League to surround the entire Ziyun Mountain, hoping to trap Nangong Yu and others.
Not only that, because he didn't know that the master of Lingyue Cave had returned to Ziyun Mountain and was personally leading a few capable men into the mountain, intending to capture Nangong Yu and others as soon as possible and perform meritorious service.
In order to lure Nangong Yu and others out, the leader of Yeyou League asked his men to yell and curse loudly in the mountains. The master of Ling Yue Cave couldn't keep his temper and flew up to fight with the master of Yeyou League. Nangong Yu and the others had no choice but to show up and fight with the hall master's men.
This battle lasted for a long time, and the sky was dark and the earth was dark. After the Ye You League people retreated, Nangong Yu discovered that the master of Lingyue Cave was missing! He called Nangong Yue and Luo Xiaoshi to search nearby for a long time, but there was still no sign of anyone. The three of them had to go back to the cave where the magic weapon was hidden, and wait for the master of Lingyue Cave to return.
The night covered the outline of the mountain, and the thick ink-like darkness swallowed everything. Only the dots of torches under the mountain made Nangong Yu and others realize that the danger still existed.
The three of them did not dare to relax at all. They lit a bonfire deep in the cave and waited quietly for the return of the master of Lingyue Cave.
However, two days passed in the blink of an eye, and there was still no news from the master of Lingyue Cave. However, Nangong Yu and the others suffered a lot in this dark and humid cave. Not only could they only eat wild fruits to satisfy their hunger, but they were also stung by grass mosquitoes and suffered terribly.
Nangong Yue tried to break out several times, but was persuaded by his brother and Luo Xiaoshi. Nangongyue leaned against the earthen wall of the cave in despair.
When can we go out? Only then can we leave this hellish place!
He thought wildly for a long time, and finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.
Nangong Yu also felt sleepy, but he still held on to keep himself awake. At the same time, he asked Luo Xiaoshi to go to sleep first and wait until around three o'clock before taking over his vigil.
Luo Xiaoshi wanted to refuse and let Nangong Yu go to bed first, but he was stupid and couldn't persuade Nangong Yu, so he had to hold a bundle of hay and make a bed on the floor next to Nangong Yue.
After a while, the snoring sounds of Nangong Yue and Luo Xiaoshi could be heard in the cave. Nangong Yu's sleepiness suddenly disappeared.
He stood up slowly, took off his shirt, and gently covered it across the abdomens of his younger brother and Luo Xiaoshi. Then he sat aside and meditated.
It's been a long time since he practiced internal martial arts... He decided to take this opportunity to adjust his breathing and exercise to completely calm down his impetuous mind.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them stayed in the cave for seven days. On this day, just after dawn, Nangong Yu was surprised by a sudden chill.
He turned over and jumped up. Just as he was about to wake up his younger brother and Luo Xiaoshi, he was startled by a bat that landed next to his feet.
A glowing bat? Could this be a "living hidden weapon" raised by the people of Yeyou League?
