Before the sky darkened completely, Tantai Mingyue and the others had already set up two tents, and Fengyun and the others finally brought back a wild wolf.
The flames on the fire were burning quietly. Murong Zhilan, who was holding a cup of hot tea, looked at Li Xiuyuan who was grilling meat and laughed.
"Tomorrow, if you don't leave, I will go hunting with Senior Brother Fengyun!"
Li Xiuyuan glanced at her and shook his head with a wry smile: "Don't worry, except for Senior Sister Yunyan who is resting here tomorrow, the six of you will go hunting. At least one of you will hunt a wolf and bring it back."
Upon hearing this, Tantai Mingyue's pupils shrank slightly, she looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Fight so many wolves?"
The place in front of the fire suddenly became quiet, and for a long time there was no sound from Feng Yun and others.
After a long time, Li Xiuyuan said: "Because you need to sharpen your courage. There are no pheasants right now, so you two should kill a wolf alone first!"
Tantai Mingyue's heart skipped a beat. Although Li Xiuyuan had already told her once, she didn't expect that this guy would actually take it seriously.
Murong Zhilan chuckled and said, "Is it just about killing wolves? Don't worry, I will go hunting with Senior Brother Fengyun tomorrow."
"Both of you have to go. Fengyun is not allowed to help, otherwise you will harm them both!" Li Xiuyuan said seriously: "Let them experience the feeling of death."
Fengyun actually shut up at this moment, watching Li Xiuyuan teach the two women, but thinking about how to teach the two women in front of him who had never killed pheasants to kill wolves tomorrow.
When Murong Zhilan heard this, she couldn't help but said angrily: "Don't worry, I won't let you see the joke!"
Li Xiuyuan rolled his eyes at her and said mockingly, "Are you stupid? Don't worry, I don't have time to go with you. I'll just stay here and bask in the sun."
Baili Yunyan, who was sitting aside, sighed: "Is this temporary cramming useful?"
"It's better than you dying in the ruins!"
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought about how he forced Nangong Ruyu to kill wolves in the wilderness before going to the Shura battlefield.
He thought that he had flown out of the small world of Mount Sumeru and came to this higher-level civilized planet. Shouldn't he follow the same laws of the jungle?
What about higher-level planets?
Looking at the red sun in the sky, I was thinking about the stars in the night sky. In the eyes of the master, only by cultivating the star body can one conquer the higher and farther starry sky?
Murong Zhilan was startled by Li Xiuyuan's words. She poked him with her hand and said, "Don't scare me, okay? The ruins my master said are not so scary!"
Li Xiuyuan yawned and said calmly: "Believe it or not, I have something to tell you in advance. I will be separated from you when we arrive at Tag Snow Mountain."
Tantai Mingyue, who was silent at the side, was stunned, looked at him and asked: "Are you afraid that we will cause you trouble?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and shook his head, and said seriously: "I have a lot of troubles and enemies... If you want to explore the ruins quietly, it's best not to know me."
Tantai Mingyue seemed to understand something, looked at him and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being alone?"
Li Xiuyuan replied lazily: "One person is full and the whole family is not hungry. What is there to be afraid of?"
Baili Yunyan sighed, pointed at the meat on the grill and said with a smile: "You can eat it if you hurry up, otherwise it will be burnt if you grill it again."
...
This night, the seven people in Wuji Holy Land did not drink because everyone was thinking about their own concerns.
Even Baili Yunyan was thinking about entering the ruins. What if Feng Yun and others were in danger and had no time to protect themselves? Not to mention the very nervous Murong Zhilan.
The four Fengyun people felt that their responsibilities were even greater, because when they left the sect, the master handed over the responsibility of protecting their senior sisters and junior sisters to the four of them.
What Tantai Mingyue was thinking about was how old the young man in front of him was, that he had already offended the monk who was going to explore the ruins, and this guy didn't even look afraid...
After drinking three courses of tea, Li Xiuyuan got into the tent early. Now he also wanted to take a good rest and dream of his own dreams while the stars were just right.
It was just that the three girls from Tantai Mingyue were standing in front of the fire, discussing in low voices the dangers they would encounter next.
The camp of a group of eight people was located on the grassland of a flat plain, without any trees to block it. It was bathed in the starlight of the sky. A breeze blew by at night, giving the three women a strange feeling.
However, in the low whistle of the wind, there was a hint of danger. Li Xiuyuan, who was lying in the tent, used his consciousness to lock onto someone in the darkness, listening to the details hidden in the wind.
He smiled bitterly and sighed. The more he was afraid of, the more he would get.
At that moment, a message was sent to Tantai Mingyue: "Be careful, there is an enemy attack!"
Tantai Mingyue was startled, and immediately poked Murong Zhilan beside her, and said softly: "Go and wake up Feng Yun and the others, don't yell too loudly."
Baili Yunyan, who was sitting nearby, was startled, looked at her and blurted out: "Senior sister, are we in trouble again?"
"Let's take a look," Tantai Mingyue said quietly, even so, he took out his long arrow.
The rumors and crises hidden in the darkness finally couldn't help but reveal the truth. An iron arrow flew from the darkness like a bolt of lightning, and with a whoosh, it shot towards the tent where Li Xiudi was!
There was a click, and Li Xiuyuan, who was about to walk out of the tent, slashed the iron arrow to the ground with his sword.
"Watch out! These guys have arrows!"
After Li Xiuyuan said this, he inserted the iron sword in his hand at his waist and quietly took out his iron bow and arrows.
Looking at Tantai Mingyue, he said: "This is your chance to hone yourself!"
Before he could finish speaking, Murong Zhilan had already woken up Fengyun and the other four, and the four men and two women immediately gathered around them.
Li Xiuyuan only said one sentence: "The bandits are left to the six of you to kill. Senior Sister Yunyan and I stay here."
Tantai Mingyue also knew that Baili Yunyan could not use force at the moment, and the best person to protect her was naturally the guy in front of her.
"Everyone, separate and be careful of the arrows in the hands of the bandits. Zhilan, don't run around and follow me!"
Tantai Mingyue was not a wordy woman, so she pulled Murong Zhilan, who had drawn her sword, into the darkness with her.
For a moment, only Li Xiuyuan, who was holding a bow and arrow, and Baili Yunyan, who looked panicked, were left in front of the burning fire. After all, this was the first time she had encountered bandits since entering the snowy mountains.
"Don't be afraid, bandits are human beings too!"
Li Xiuyuan handed her the long sword at his waist, and he simply sat by the fire and made tea. It was better to drink tea than to kill someone.
There were countless arrows in the darkness, shooting towards the fire like a heavy rain, which frightened Baili Yunyan and couldn't help but scream.
Sighing, Li Xiuyuan stretched out his hand to let her lie down on the ground, holding an iron bow in his hand and hitting the flying iron arrows to the ground one by one.
If it weren't for the purpose of sharpening the mentality and murderous nature of Tantai Mingyue and others, he alone would be enough for these bandits.
Listening to the sound of arrows piercing the air in the dark night, and occasionally reaching out to knock down the iron arrows shot at him, Li Xiu silently cleared away the bandit's archers.
Only a dozen bandits dare to rob the genius of Wuji Holy Land?
If these guys didn't think about polishing their murderous aura, Tantai Mingyue would have jumped out and slashed people with his sword.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Three arrows!
The iron arrow was shot hard at Li Xiuyuan, who was sitting motionless by the fire. The iron bow in his hand made a crisp impact and let out a final mournful cry.
Silently releasing his consciousness, Li Xiuyuan locked onto Tantai Mingyue and Murong Zhilan in the darkness.
What he heard in his ears were the whizzing of arrows, the muffled grunt of the bandits after they fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, the mournful sound of horses after being hit by arrows, all kinds of sounds were mixed together, and to his ears it was worse than outside Loulan City. of that attack.
After all, there are some differences between killers and bandits. At least the killer's cultivation level is much higher than that of the bandits.
Baili Yunyan, who was lying on the ground, looked at the young man in front of him who had a calm face and didn't even frown, and felt a wave of shock in his heart.
Are you not afraid of death? Is it possible that those iron arrows can't penetrate your body?
Li Xiuyuan looked at her nervous look and said with a smile: "These are not killers, just a bunch of rabble."
Baili Yunyan was stunned, frowned and asked, "Why do you know whether they are killers or bandits?"
"Killers usually wear masks and dress in black, because they are also afraid of being recognized and seeking revenge. These guys in front of them don't even cover their faces, and they wear all kinds of clothes..."
While Li Xiuyuan and Baili Yunyan were analyzing the differences between killers and bandits, he silently watched the six men from Tantai Mingyue fighting the bandits.
Since the bandits here did not choose to attack when they first arrived, but chose to attack at night, it means that these bandits are not from the nearby grasslands.
Bandits commit robberies day and night, and only killers can do so carefully.
Both traveling merchants and monks tend to relax when they are asleep, and this is when their defenses are at their weakest. These bandits must be taking advantage of this.
Vaguely, they saw that Fengyun and the others were facing seven or eight figures, and the swords of both sides made unpleasant sounds in the dark night.
This is a deserted grassland deep in the snow-capped mountains. Except for passing merchants, it is rare to see monks passing by on weekdays.
In Li Xiuyuan's view, these guys were just bandits who were stationed not far from here, blocking roads and robbing people to cause trouble. However, the news about the bandits failed to find out about him, an inconspicuous god of murder.
"It's such a nice day."
Li Xiuyuan murmured, looking at Baili Yunyan who was slowly getting up and holding a long sword in front of him, and found that this guy was panicked at the beginning, but gradually calmed down, and even tightened his grip on the long sword in his hand.
"There is no need for you to take action tonight. You need to recover from your injuries first."
Li Xiuyuan said lightly, but the iron bow in his hand was already equipped with an iron arrow, aiming somewhere in the dark night.
The bandits in front of them were aroused by the resistance of the six Fengyun men. Eight of them attacked the four Fengyun men at the same time, and two of the disciples were already injured.
However, Tantai Mingming and Murong Zhilan were surrounded by four bandits, and three others screamed and drew their scimitars from their waists and rushed towards Li Xiuyuan who was staying in front of the camp fire.
Suddenly there was a fierce clash of swords on the grassland in the dark night. Someone was hit by a sword and screamed and screamed, which was extremely scary in the cold night.
Li Xiudi didn't pay attention to the three bandits who rushed up, but locked his iron bow on the four bandits surrounding Tantai Mingyue and the two!
"Buzz!" sounded, and the iron arrow flew towards Tantai Mingyue quickly like a bolt of lightning.
While the iron arrow was still flying on the road, Baili Yunyan heard another "buzz!" sound coming from his ears!
Then the girl who had just gotten up was frightened because she discovered that the bald boy in front of her was simply a demon and a god of death.
Before she could see clearly, Li Xiuyuan, who was standing in front of her, had already shot five iron arrows!
Tantai Mingyue in the dark night was in unspeakable pain. After she rushed out with Murong Zhilan, they entered into a fierce fight. Faced with the siege of four bandits, the two women did not retreat and were unable to turn around and escape.
Murong Zhilan's left arm had been scratched by the bandit's machete, and her skirt was dyed red with blood.
Just as Murong Zhilan was kicked down by a bandit who suddenly jumped up from behind, another bandit slashed fiercely with a long knife...
At the moment when Tantai Mingyue let out a cry of surprise and was dragged down by the two bandits around her, unable to step forward to save her junior sister...
Just when the bandits let out a burst of cheers and were about to drop the long knives in their hands...
Two arrows sounded in their ears.
