Somewhere in the dark.
Tang Hao, who was wearing a tattered black robe with a dirty wine gourd hanging from his waist and holding a stone flowerpot in his hand, saw the Titan ape suddenly appearing on the outskirts of the forest. His eyes were filled with horror and disbelief.
However, he did not take action.
Watching with cold eyes as the Titan Ape wreaked havoc in the Shrek Academy camp, even when Tang San was attacked by the Titan Ape, he tried his best to resist the urge to take action.
He could tell that Xiao Wu's humanoid soul beast seemed to have a close relationship with the Titan Ape.
as expected.
Just when the Titan Ape was about to step on Tang San's head, Xiao Wu screamed and stopped the Titan Ape, causing its stampeding to deviate from its original direction.
Tang San was not really hurt.
"Ah Yin, do you think I should catch up?"
Seeing Xiao Wu being taken away by the Titan Giant Ape, Tang Hao was a little entangled in his heart. He was considering whether to catch up with Xiao Wu and snatch Xiao Wu back?
He wasn't afraid of the titans.
If the strength was fully activated and all nine rings exploded, he believed that the Titan Ape would not be able to withstand his Clear Sky Hammer attack.
It's just that he is currently ill. If he attacks with all his strength again, it will inevitably trigger hidden wounds in his body and make his life worse than death.
"That's all, let's go take a look."
After thinking for a long time, Tang Hao glanced at the direction where the titan ape was grabbing Xiao Wu and leaving, then looked at his son Tang San whose eyes were red, and suddenly sighed.
After all, Xiao Wu is Xiao San's sweetheart, and as a father, he must go and see her.
Of course, the most important thing is that Xiao Wu is the soul ring and soul bone that he has destined for Xiao San, and there is no room for loss.
With his mind determined, Tang Hao raised his hand and pulled the robe on his head, completely hiding his scruffy beard face in the shadows. He immediately swayed and quietly left the place, heading towards the Titan Giant Ape. direction, and flew away quickly.
"Act according to plan."
With strong mental perception, Ye Qifeng noticed that Tang Hao, who was hiding in the dark, had left, and immediately made a few gestures secretly towards the dense forest in the other direction.
As soon as Ye Qifeng made his gesture, a certain shadow in the forest shook imperceptibly.
Immediately afterwards, a wisp of mist floated out from the shadows, chasing the Titan Ape in the same direction, but the speed was much faster than the Titan Ape and Tang Hao.
…………
He watched helplessly as Xiao Wu was abducted by the Titan ape and taken deep into the forest to an unknown destination.
Tang San's eyes were about to burst. He got up and was about to chase forward, but his injuries affected his body. His feet went soft, and his whole body slammed to the ground with a snap.
"No, Xiao Wu——"
Tang San got up from the ground with difficulty. For a moment, he couldn't accept the fact that Xiao Wu had been taken away. He felt extremely sad and angry in his heart, and spat out a large mouthful of blood.
At this time, Zhao Wuji ran back from the dense forest.
But at this time, he looked a little embarrassed, with blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, a bruised nose and a swollen face. His body was covered in bloodstains and stained with a lot of vegetation debris.
It was obvious that he was seriously injured.
The slap from the Titan Giant Ape just now was not very pleasant. If Zhao Wuji had not been protected by Fudo Mingou's body, which could rebound some of the damage, otherwise the injuries he received would definitely be more than this.
"Xiao Wu? What's wrong with Xiao Wu?"
Zhao Wuji didn't see the scene where Xiao Wu fell into the palm of the Titan ape and was taken away. At this moment, he heard Tang San's wail and immediately asked.
Tang San's eyes were red and he didn't answer Zhao Wuji. At this time, he seemed to be in a state of rage.
Looking at Zhao Wuji in front of him, Tang San was very dissatisfied and even felt resentful. He was a piece of trash who couldn't even protect his own students, but was easily slapped away by the Titan Ape. What's the use of you?
Xiao Wu has been taken away, and now she comes back, what's the use? Also asked what happened to Xiao Wu? Don’t you know how to read it yourself?
"Teacher Zhao, Xiao Wu and Xiao Wu were captured by the Titan Ape."
At this time, Oscar, who had just placed the unconscious Ning Rongrong, ran over, took a look at Tang San, who was enveloped in a gloomy aura, swallowed, and then answered Zhao Wuji's question for Tang San.
"What?"
Zhao Wuji's face changed drastically, and he finally realized the seriousness of the matter. He quickly scanned the surrounding area, and sure enough, he didn't see Xiao Wu. It seemed that Xiao Wu was really captured by the Titan Ape. What should he do?
Being captured by the Titan Ape, Xiao Wu's chance of survival was almost zero. She was dead.
Realizing this, Zao Wuji's rough face, covered with debris from vegetation, instantly turned livid.
Tang San said nothing, regardless of his injuries, and walked forward with red eyes. He wanted to chase Xiao Wu back.
"Tang San, where are you going?"
Zhao Wuji frowned and raised his hand to stop him.
"Get out of the way! I'm going to save Xiao Wu."
Tang San's voice was solemn, and he looked directly at Zhao Wuji. His eye circles were so red that they could bleed, and he was cold and emotionless. His right hand had quietly touched the "Twenty-Four Bridges on a Bright Moon Night" around his waist.
Anyone who stops him from rescuing Xiao Wu will be regarded as his enemy and will fight to the death.
Noticing the indifference and hostility in Tang San's eyes, Zhao Wuji frowned deeply, and instantly understood in his heart that because Xiao Wu was captured by the Titan Ape, Tang San was already in a state of dementia and madness.
During the entrance examination, he just stunned Xiao Wu, but this little brat went crazy and wanted to kill him.
Now that he failed to protect her, Xiao Wu was captured by the Titan Ape. This kid might also hold a grudge against him.
If he were to stop him again, he might actually take action against himself.
Thinking of this, Zhao Wuji felt dizzy.
Glancing at Tang San's hand on his waist, Zhao Wuji narrowed his eyes slightly, but after thinking about it, he still spoke out to persuade:
"Tang San, please don't be impulsive. With your current strength, it's impossible to catch up."
"The one who captured Xiao Wu was the Titan Ape. You saw just now what kind of strength the Titan Ape is. Even I am far from a match."
"If you catch up like this, even if you catch up with the Titan ape, what will happen? It's just an extra life."
How could Tang San listen to this advice at this time?
When he looked at Zhao Wuji, his eyes became more serious, as if he was going to take out all the hidden weapons in "Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night" in the next second and sprinkle them all on Zhao Wuji's face.
"Okay, I'll go take a look first, but I can't guarantee whether I can catch up with the Titan Ape and save Xiao Wu."
Seeing Tang San's disobedient look, Zhao Wuji sighed and said helplessly.
"Yes, Xiao San, the Titan Ape is not something you can deal with, it is a monster. Besides, you are still injured, so why not let Teacher Zhao take a look first."
Oscar next to him also spoke out to persuade.
Tang San's expression was ugly, but after listening to Zhao Wuji and Oscar's persuasion, he regained some sense at this time.
What they both said was true after all. With his current strength as a great soul master, he really couldn't compete with the Titan Giant Ape, let alone rescue Xiao Wu.
Zhao Wuji was the most suitable choice.
"Then I'll trouble you, Teacher Zhao."
After a long silence, Tang San finally nodded.
Seeing Tang San finally put his hands down from his waist, Zhao Wuji was speechless. This little brat was really difficult to deal with. He always threatened people with those insidious hidden weapons.
Although he felt a little unhappy, Zhao Wuji said nothing more, took a large recovery sausage and a flying mushroom sausage from Oscar, and ate them wholeheartedly.
Immediately afterwards, he chased in the direction in which the Titan Giant Ape left.
…………
The time passed very painfully.
At least that's what Tang San thought.
A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and Zhao Wuji finally returned to the station with scars all over his body.
Seeing Zhao Wuji returning empty-handed and alone, Tang San's expression suddenly became even more gloomy.
Zhao Wuji seemed extremely tired. Not to mention the true body of the martial spirit, he could not even maintain the possession of the martial spirit. He was breathing heavily, came to Tang San, and patted Tang San on the shoulder with an apologetic expression:
"Sorry, I couldn't catch up with the Titan Ape."
"Due to the sudden appearance of the Titan Giant Ape, the entire outer area of the Star Dou Forest has become a mess, and all the spirit beasts have rioted."
"I had just chased them a few kilometers away when I was blocked by a group of rioting soul beasts. If I hadn't had the strength of a soul saint, I probably wouldn't have been able to come back."
"I'm sorry everyone, I failed to protect Xiao Wu. Tang San, you..."
"Condolences!"
Tang San's head hung down, making it difficult to see the expression on his face, but the aura emanating from his body became increasingly gloomy and depressing.
Oscar originally wanted to go up and comfort Tang San, but when he noticed the strong gloomy aura on Tang San's body, he couldn't help but feel a little trembling and scared in his heart, so he quickly gave up the idea.
Ning Rongrong had woken up at this time and looked at Oscar. Because of what they had just experienced, their relationship had become much better.
Ning Rongrong knew that Xiao Wu was captured by the Titan Giant Ape and would probably never return. Adhering to the principles of life, he wanted to say a word of condolence, but seeing Tang San's gloomy look that made him want to kill, he I can't say it anymore.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun have also returned.
Well, Dai Mubai crawled back by himself, and Ma Hongjun was carried back by Oscar.
Ma Hongjun was the most seriously injured, with no intact part of his body and all his bones broken. Even after eating Oscar's recovery sausage, there was still no sign of waking up.
Dai Mubai was also seriously injured and was lying next to him, unable to move.
He wanted to say something to Tang San, but the opening of his mouth caused injuries on his body. He immediately bared his teeth and sucked in cold air, unable to say a word.
Ye Qifeng and Zhu Zhuqing were also there, but they were not with Shrek and the others. They were separated by a distance as before.
The expression on Ye Qifeng's face was calm, without any emotion or emotion. He knew exactly what was going on when the rogue rabbit was captured, so he was naturally not surprised.
Zhu Zhuqing's expression was as cold as ever. She didn't care at all about the outcome of the rogue rabbit, or it would be better if she died, so that the dead rabbit would not have such a bad mouth.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't even look at Shrek, but her beautiful eyes fell on Ye Qifeng from time to time, wondering what he was thinking.
"No, I don't blame you. It was me who failed to protect Xiao Wu."
After being calm for a long time, Tang San finally raised his head and looked at Zhao Wuji.
His voice was calm, as if there was no emotion at all.
Zhao Wuji sighed silently and glanced at Oscar:
"Oscar, give me another big recovery sausage and a small detoxification sausage."
"Those beasts outside seemed to have lost their minds and pounced on me regardless, causing me to almost lose my life."
Oscar quickly took out the large sausages and small sausages that had been prepared and handed them to Zhao Wuji.
Zhao Wuji took it, stuffed it into his mouth without saying a word, swallowed it in a few gulps, and then ordered:
"This area is no longer safe. Let's take a rest where we are. Then we'll move to a safer place and then we'll make further plans."
After saying that, Zhao Wuji turned around and walked to Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun to check their injuries.
…………
"Xiao Ao, if you treat me as a brother, give me all the big sausages, small sausages, and mushroom sausages in your hand."
At this time, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded in Oscar's ears.
Oscar's expression changed, obviously he recognized this melancholy voice, it was coming from Tang San's mouth, and he also realized what Tang San was going to do.
"Don't make any noise, and don't let anyone see it."
Tang San's gloomy and cold voice reached Oscar's ears again.
"this"
Oscar was startled, and turned around to see a pair of blood-red eyes, which were indescribably evil, strange, and sharp.
What he wanted to say to persuade him couldn't be said immediately, and he hurriedly handed over all the sausages, sausages, and mushroom sausages that he had made in advance to Tang San.
Otherwise, he was afraid that Tang San would directly grab it.
"Thanks!"
Tang San thanked him emotionlessly, then turned around and sat cross-legged on the ground, picked up a large recovery sausage, and ate it.
Oscar silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Tang San in this state was really scary.
Those blood-red eyes seemed to be able to see the Asura Hell, full of murderous intent.
…………
After trimming for a while.
Zhao Wuji held the seriously injured Dai Mubai and the unconscious Ma Hongjun in each hand, and led everyone to carefully avoid the area where the soul beasts were rioting, and found another safe area to station themselves.
It was still dark.
A figure suddenly jumped out of a tent in Shrek's camp.
This figure had a strong figure and erratic gait. He made no sound during his movements and his breath was extremely weak. If you didn't sense it carefully, it would be almost difficult to detect his presence.
Zhao Wuji, who was in charge of the night watch, didn't seem to notice.
After avoiding Zhao Wuji's guarding sight, the figure quickly came to the dense forest and couldn't wait to take out a mushroom sausage that wanted to enter. He swallowed it without chewing.
After the mushroom intestines were eaten, a pair of illusory light red fleshy wings immediately sprouted from the back of the figure, which was almost the same as the thousand-year-old crested crested snake.
Under the control of his mind, the man who emerged from the camp immediately took off, looked in a certain direction, and flew away quickly.
…………
Shrek's camp.
In a large tent.
"Zhuqing, I have to leave for a while. You can follow Shrek and his group first. With Zhao Wuji here, you don't have to worry about safety."
Upon noticing that Tang San had secretly left the camp, Ye Qifeng, who was practicing cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes and spoke softly to Zhu Zhuqing opposite him.
That's right, the person who left quietly was Tang San.
"Okay, Brother Ye, you should also pay attention to safety and come back early."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly.
She knew what Brother Ye was going to do, and she also knew what the ghost teacher's goal was.
Brother Ye had already told her about this matter in advance.
"Don't worry about the soul ring. When I finish the matter, I will come back and take you to hunt for the best one."
Ye Qifeng looked at Zhu Zhuqing, whose eyes were clear in the dark night, and added softly:
"It's definitely better than the soul ring selected by your Zhu family."
"Well, I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait for you to come back."
Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes stared at Ye Qifeng without blinking.
"Okay, I'm leaving first. I have to follow that bitch Tang San. Some things can't fall into his hands."
After Ye Qifeng said that, he stood up and walked out of the tent.
Zhu Zhuqing stood up to see him off.
Arriving at the entrance of the tent, Ye Qifeng suddenly remembered something and turned back to Zhu Zhuqing and said:
"Oh, by the way, Zhuqing, there is one more thing."
"If that bastard Dai Mubai dares to harass you, there's no need to be polite to him."
"Remember the handful of golden nuggets I gave you? You can just take it out and greet him."
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly smiled, very happily:
"Well, I understand."
