"This is the last group."
Geng Jie hid behind the branches of a big tree, and said with certainty after watching the woman run directly to the battlefield ahead, with no one else behind her.
There were no more arrows in the arrow path on the crossbow arm. He threw the Green Falcon crossbow in his hand to the person under the tree. The sword emerged from the black sheath like silver light and ordered: "It's time to close the net."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was seen kicking hard on the branches with both feet, and his body was already rushing towards the prey like an eagle.
In this dense forest, they form a team of ten, usually led by a Sky Hunter.
It was he who led a group of people to ambush here just now. When he was sure that this was the last group of people from the opponent, he launched an attack brazenly.
The one who was obeying orders under the tree was Lin Zhen, the eighth leader of the Iron Bone Village. After taking over the crossbow thrown by Geng Jie, he was leading everyone in the Iron Bone Village to follow the opponent with great difficulty.
"Myna, there's a woman running away, maybe it's a big fish."
"You all should be smart and don't be greedy for credit. It's important to save your life."
Suddenly, broken branches and leaves were everywhere, and everyone was chasing each other in the dark woods!
On a big tree less than a hundred meters away from where Geng Jie was just now, Mu Qing witnessed the whole process of the opponent's vicious ambush.
Perhaps it was intentional by Tieguguzhai. They did not divide Mu Qing into a team, but allowed him to act alone.
"It's strange, that woman's movement looks so familiar..."
While a chill arose in his heart, the woman who ran away in the end caught his eye.
"It seems things are not simple."
Mu Qing squatted quietly on a branch, picked up a leaf and chewed it randomly.
His eyebrows were raised slightly, and he finally realized why he felt familiar with that woman's movement, because he had seen the same movement on Shaoyao before.
"Would you like to go take a look at the battlefield ahead..."
"No, it's none of my business. Let's go liquidate someone first."
In fact, even if he is divided into a small team, Mu Qing will still look for opportunities to break away from the opponent and act alone.
Because as early as last night, he understood that this chaotic situation was a good time to take advantage of the fire.
The noise in front of the dense forest was getting louder and louder, and the sound of killing was loud, and it must have reached the village.
Mu Qing's eyes flashed with light, and he was about to return to the gate of the village to wait.
A painful groan suddenly came, attracting his attention.
"Huh? Is anyone still alive?"
The "Floating World" was easy to use in the dense forest. Mu Qing landed directly in front of a woman lying on the ground.
"Traitor, please kill me and give me a happy life!"
Lu Fanrou lay on the ground, raised her neck in pain and could only see the knees of the person in front of her.
But now in the forest, there is no chance that his companions will appear. Most of them are enemies who want to cut off their heads in exchange for bounty.
"You...get your dirty hands off me!"
"Ugh~"
She scolded, but she immediately spat out the blood accumulated in her chest.
"Huh?"
Mu Qing released his right hand on the opponent's back.
The woman was hit by an arrow in the left back, and the sharp arrow penetrated directly into the opponent's chest. She should have died long ago.
Just now, he couldn't feel the woman's heart pulse on the left side, but he could still feel the continuous heartbeat on the right side.
"No wonder you can still live until now. It turns out that the position of the heart aperture is different from that of ordinary people."
Mu Qing asked: "Do you have anything to do with Ten Thousand Flowers Valley?"
Lu Fanrou was shocked. She wondered if the other party had found any clues. She said in an impatient tone: "Kill me if you want, you thief. What nonsense!"
"hehe."
Mu Qing probably knew what was going on and said to Lu Fanrou: "Your scream attracted me. It seems that you deserve to die. Otherwise, even if you don't die now, your head will be cut off by the people cleaning up the battlefield later."
Lu Fanrou was about to say something else, when Mu Qing stretched out his fingers like the wind and quickly sealed the Chengfeng, Geshu and Hunmen acupoints on her back.
Mu Qing gently picked up the other person and said, "I don't mean any harm. When your injury gets better, I hope you can answer truthfully."
Lu Fanrou hissed: "You...let me down quickly!"
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows and said impatiently: "Silence!"
As he spoke, he touched Lu Fanrou's mute point.
"rise!"
He circulated the Ten Thousand Poisonous Green Qi in his body, and this time he performed the second form of Qinggong, "Floating Heaven and Earth". After jumping through the woods for a few times, he stepped directly on the straight and smooth cliff and flew up.
After entering the third level of cultivation, Mu Qing was able to float in the air for a short time, but after recently purifying the green energy in his body, it was no pressure to lead a person straight up the wall like this.
…
At this time, two people walked slowly inside the closed gate of Iron Bone Village.
"Hey? Why are you here, Fourth Master?"
The guards guarding the entrance of the village looked at Lin Tian with a man behind them in surprise.
Lin Tian raised his head, glanced at everyone with a slightly dim look, and said quickly in an emotionless tone: "Hurry up and open the village gate for me!"
One of the guards took the lead and took a step forward. He glanced at the man behind Lin Tian. The man was always hunched and his head was lowered, and his appearance could not be clearly seen.
"I don't know why the fourth master wants to go out now. When the village master and others left, they directly ordered the gate to be temporarily closed. Your injuries have not recovered yet, so please just take a good rest in the village."
"Sa——"
The sound of breaking wind is coming!
Before the leader of the guard could react, Lin Tian's right hand had already strangled his neck. He only heard Lin Tian say viciously: "How do you think I am recovering? Can I kill you?"
"My brothers are outside, I have to go find them and open the door for me!"
"Uh...uh..."
The leader of the guard slapped Lin Tian's arm hard.
"snort!"
As soon as Lin Tian let go of his hand, the other person collapsed directly to the ground.
"Huh-huh-"
The leader of the guard gasped and pointed at his younger brother and scolded: "Hurry up and open the door for the Fourth Master."
"You know what's going on, let's go!"
Lin Tian led the people behind him and walked straight out of the village gate. Before anyone could react, he disappeared by the business road in the blink of an eye.
"Hoo~"
A quarter of an hour passed. Next to a big rock in the dense forest, Lin Tian finally stopped running and stood upright and quietly. The person behind him breathed a long sigh of relief.
The person behind him had straightened his back and raised his head. It was Cao Mo who had simply changed his appearance.
"Damn, it's so dangerous. I almost lost control of this kid just now."
Cao Mo turned his head and glanced at the puppet Lin Tian. It took a lot of effort on his part to control him to make a move of approaching and choking someone in an instant.
If someone asked about his identity at that time, Cao Mo would not be able to get out of the door.
Because the more agile Lin Tian is controlled to make movements, the less likely he is to multitask.
"Hiss-hoo-"
Cao Mo opened his arms wide, raised his head, and took a deep breath intoxicated.
"Ah——, the free air is so nostalgic."
He shook his head and thought, thinking that he was already dead, but he didn't expect that he could escape so easily and avoid disaster.
He patted the animal skin book on his chest and grinned: "Grandson Mu Qing, it seems that you are still a little young. I will mark it down for you, grandpa Qiu, until grandpa comes to visit next time. You will be cut into pieces."
"oh?"
"Why wait until next time? Not this time?"
The calm voice suddenly sounded behind Cao Mo's ears, which was like a thunder on the ground!
"ah--"
Cao Mo took seven or eight steps back in fear, his eyes bulging and widening.
"You, you, why are you here?"
You must know that after leaving the village, he first ran on the business road for a while. After observing that no one was following him, he left the business road and went back to the dense forest.
He really didn't expect to meet the person he least wanted to see here - Mu Qing.
A quarter of an hour ago, after Mu Qing entrusted the rescued woman to Xiaochan, he went back to the dense forest in search of that special smell.
He smiled evilly but did not take action right away. He stared at Cao Mo with a playful look and said, "Why can't I be here? Don't you want to cut me into pieces? No, I'm here."
Cao Mo gritted his teeth. The situation was extremely dangerous at this moment. He forced himself to calm down, bent down and bowed to apologize and said with a smile: "Young Master Mu Qing is joking. How could I dare to go against you? It's just my bad mouth."
After saying that, he slapped his mouth seven or eight times.
When Cao Mo saw that Mu Qing did not take the initiative to attack, he stood up straight and changed the topic and asked in confusion, "I wonder how Master Mu Qing found the old man?"
Mu Qing glanced at Lin Tian, who was now quietly acting as a guard for Cao Mo.
He smiled and explained: "This is all thanks to Mr. Cao. If you hadn't given me the poison chapter, in order to test whether it was true or false, how could I have used 'Ten Mile Incense' on Lin Tian."
Cao Mo was shocked: "What? Shilixiang?"
No wonder Mu Qing was able to catch up with him. It turned out that he used the tracking medicine "Ten Mile Incense".
There is a relatively detailed description of "Ten Mile Incense" in the Poison Chapter of "The Classic of Ten Thousand Poisons": "Take a drop of incense from nearly twenty kinds of common plants such as dill, lemongrass, basil, lemon balm, rosemary, and tuberose. The essence of the fragrance is extracted, and then goes through nine complicated processes, and finally mixed in a specific order to make 'Ten Mile Incense'."
And although it is called 'Ten Miles of Fragrance', it does not mean that the fragrance can spread for ten miles. On the contrary, it is just a colorless and odorless transparent liquid.
Its use method is also clearly explained in the Poison Chapter: "The tracker and the marker each use one drop. The tracker's drop must be catalyzed by internal force and then applied to the Yingxiang point on the side of the nose, so that the scent can be smelled. The rich fragrance lasts for ten miles, otherwise it will be as difficult as others to detect the strangeness in the air."
"No wonder, no wonder..."
Cao Mo secretly lamented Mu Qing's cunning and shrewdness, and actually used "Ten Miles of Fragrance" on Lin Tian. He was eager to escape from the village, but he failed to check for a moment and was punished by the other party.
He figured out the joints and asked pretending to be scared: "I just don't know what Mr. Mu Qing is here for. Is it because he is afraid that he will break his promise?"
Mu Qing shook his head: "When I went to Lintian's room to pick up things that night, I was wondering why there happened to be only those three things in the secret compartment under his bed."
Cao Mo cried out, "Master Mu Qing, are you still doubting the authenticity of those things? If they are fake, will I suffer the consequences of you?"
Mu Qing smiled and said: "I didn't say that what you gave me was fake, but when I was flipping through the poison chapter, I found that the ink on it was not dry, so how can I explain it?"
He didn't wait for Cao Mo to answer and directly expressed his guess: "Is that something you wrote not long ago under the control of Lin Tian? Do you still have the complete Poison Scripture with you? How can I completely believe that you will not be there?" Randomly making a few random sentences at certain points of writing, or even laying the foundation for disaster?"
Mu Qing took out a sandalwood box from his arms, "Mr. Cao, this is the Green Emperor Snow Lotus you left here for me. Have you forgotten it?"
Mu Qing walked forward slowly, walking towards Cao Mo as if he were a harmless person, "I want to exchange the rest of the Poison Body Chapter with you now, what do you think?"
Cao Mo stepped back and came to the side of Lin Tian. His eyes were dark and he shouted in a hissing voice, "Don't come over!"
"I...I'll give it to you. I'll ask Lin Tian to hand it over to you. Don't go any further."
As he spoke, he took out a stack of paper covered with writing from his sleeve and placed it in Lin Tian's lapel, controlling him to walk towards Mu Qing.
"snort!"
Mu Qing suddenly waved his sleeves, his green energy was like a knife.
"call out--"
"Bang bang——"
Lin Tian's head was whirled three feet high by the bloody pillar, while his headless body took two steps after losing his head, so they both landed at the same time.
"you!"
Cao Mo was shocked. He didn't expect Mu Qing to be so ruthless and decisive. He shouted, "You brat, don't you want the Poison Body Chapter?"
"Since you are suspicious with malicious intentions, I don't want to explain anymore, but I just want you to promise me one thing today and let me go. Otherwise, you will never get -"
"Uh, uh, you..."
The hot liquid surged into his throat. Cao Mo stopped talking and stiffened. He looked down at his chest, and for a moment he didn't feel any pain.
At this moment, the fear of impending death had filled his mind.
At that moment, when he was still thinking about giving in, Mu Qing's body skills were pushed to the extreme and came directly behind him.
Backstab is Mu Qing's favorite move.
"Huh? It didn't penetrate?"
When the short sword in his hand was about to pierce the opponent's chest, it was blocked by something.
But while he was doubtful, Mu Qing didn't hesitate too much and drew out the dagger directly as he stepped back.
There was a groove on the dagger that glowed with green light. When it penetrated the flesh, it would naturally form a blood groove in the wound. Therefore, when Mu Qing pulled out the dagger, the blood flowed directly from the back of Cao Mo's heart. Shoot out.
"Ho ho ho—"
"I can't die."
Cao Mo roared like crazy and was about to turn around and give Mu Qing a vicious blow to kill him too. Mu Qing was already more than ten feet away from him.
He stood there quietly, looked at Cao Mo indifferently and said, "Once I decide to kill someone, I like to be simple and direct."
"When you're verbose, you should be prepared to die."
