On the outskirts of the Tianyin Forest, Sun Zi burst out of the ground, jumped to the ground, and staggered a few steps before he stood still.
Looking back into the depths of the dark forest and listening to the loud noise coming from inside, his expression was very frightened, and he felt a sense of fear in his heart, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
Afraid of being affected, he did not dare to stay here for long, so he left in a panic and headed straight for Tianyang City.
At another exit, the three remaining members of the Tianyang City law enforcement team also ran out in panic, but they did not leave directly.
"Boss, that demon tiger is going crazy inside. I'm afraid Mr. Cai is in serious danger. Why don't we just go back and recover like this?" One of the three people started to think about retreating.
"The figure walking out just now is hard to see clearly from a distance, but it doesn't seem to be Master Cai, right? Then could the other figure we saw being attacked by the demon tiger be..." Another person under his command also wanted to return, Recalling the scene they had just observed from a distance inside, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
The leader was worried, worried that if he went back like this, he would not be able to fool around and provoke the city lord to punish him. He knew the city lord's temper very well and could not tolerate any sand in his eyes.
It took him a long time to make a compromise decision: "Let's wait in a safe place outside. It would be best if we can see Mr. Cai come out by then. If not, we can sneak in to check it out after it calms down inside. This way we can go back." Easy to explain."
When the two men heard that they were not asked to go in now, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
So the three of them stood guard at the largest exit of the forest.
…
He Gu ran straight out of the Tianyin Forest in one breath. After making sure that the Flying Tiger showed no signs of pursuing him, he stopped and withdrew his movements.
He was less worried about Kong Rou. It was important to get back to good condition right now, so he quickly found a relatively safe place to meditate and adjust his breath.
After half a day, he adjusted his condition, stood up and jumped to the top of a big tree, looking into the depths of the forest.
Originally, the billowing dust and mist caused by the flying tiger's wanton destruction of the environment could still be seen there. Now, not only is the dust and mist gone, not even a tiger's roar can be heard.
The dust has long since settled, and the clear sky is revealed again.
He Gu jumped down from the top of the tree and carefully followed the path he came from.
After a while, he returned to the area where the light mask was, and the scene in front of him surprised him.
The ground was in a mess, with criss-crossing ravines and no trace of complete green. Amidst the endless undulating sea of green forest, there was a messy pit mixed with mud and residual wood and ashes.
There is no trace of the Flying Tiger, and its remaining aura has not dissipated, making other monsters afraid to set foot.
Just in case, He Gu restrained his breath and waited for nearly half a quarter of an hour.
It wasn't until a breathless but familiar tiger roar came from behind the mountains in the distance that he finally felt relieved.
The original scenery was destroyed, and he couldn't find the exact location for a while, so he had to walk through them all.
Outside sounds could not be heard within the light shield, but the outside world could be seen, so he waved to the air around him as he walked, hoping to be seen by Kong Rou.
On the edge of the pit on one side, three people from Tianyang City's law enforcement team also came in. At this time, they were hiding behind some big rocks and peeking out.
"What is that guy doing?" one person asked in confusion.
"It seems like some kind of evil magic is being performed..." The other person was not sure and felt a little scared.
The leader sandwiched between them looked at He Gu's back with a serious face, his eyes twinkling.
Since this young master is safe and sound, Mr. Cai should be gone...
No matter what this result means, their mission is finally completed.
Anyone who can defeat Mr. Cai is definitely not a soft persimmon, and none of them have any intention of showing up to look for him.
"Go back." The leader whispered the order, and the other two braced themselves.
The three of them carefully turned around and walked back, but He Gu accidentally found something there.
Mr. Cai’s storage bag!
No human remains were left behind, but the storage bag was intact.
He Guting and Leng Qingzhu mentioned before that space magic weapons such as storage bags are inherently strong and stable. For purposes of consideration, the refiners also intend to put more effort into strengthening the sturdiness.
This not only makes the storage bag very expensive, but also makes the storage bag one of the most attack-resistant items on a cultivator.
Mr. Cai's storage bag is obviously not of ordinary quality, which can be seen from the fact that it can completely withstand the frenzied attacks of the five realm monsters.
Now that the person is dead, the owner-recognition restriction set on the storage bag naturally becomes ineffective. He Gu stretched his spiritual consciousness in without any hindrance.
After a quick glance, there were at least nearly 20,000 spiritual stones piled up in the corner. In the middle were several Taoist jade slips and many jade bottles containing elixirs. In addition, there were many spiritual materials. Panacea.
This was a big advantage for He Gu and solved his urgent need.
Originally, he was still worried about using nearly 5,000 spiritual stones from his junior sister, but now the problem was solved.
The remaining part not only covered his expenses for this trip, but also made a lot of money!
He made the right move this time, and the goods he received were generous.
He Gu felt happy.
Now was not the time to slowly appreciate it, so he put it away and continued to find Kongrou's position.
"Brother He, I'm here!"
He Gu didn't look for long before he heard Kong Rou calling from one side and quickly changed direction.
Rushing to the girl's side, he first grabbed her hand to check her physical condition: "Are you scared?"
Kong Rou was still frightened, but she gave He Gu a reassuring smile and shook her head gently.
After confirming that Kong Rou's body was fine, He Gu let go of his hand and summoned the flying sword: "Let's go out first."
After saying that, he took Kongrou's soft waist and stepped forward.
Although this was not the first time being held by He Gu like this, Kongrou still couldn't calm down and jumped up and down, her face slightly red.
Standing on the flying sword, she was a little afraid of heights, and her little hands subconsciously grasped the clothes on He Gu's upper body tightly.
Looking at the devastation below, she felt as if all this was happening in a dream, and her expression was in a trance.
Her thoughts moved forward bit by bit.
She had been alone with her grandfather since she was a child. Although she felt miserable, she never gave up hope. She always looked forward to growing up quickly so that she could support the family.
But in just a few days, her hope was shattered bit by bit by sudden changes.
Her dearest grandfather suddenly fell seriously ill, and her uncle, who was still more or less a relative, ruthlessly abandoned her when she needed her most, and to make matters worse, he sold her to the Wuming Gang.
Grandpa eventually died.
Her original hope was completely destroyed.
Destiny was pushing her step by step into the dark abyss. At this moment, He Gu suddenly came behind her and stretched out his big hand to hold her.
Just like the dawn appears in the dark night sky, everything has new hope in an instant.
She was already very satisfied, and she felt very good at the moment.
It feels so good to be held by someone...
It's really warm, I really want to keep it forever...
Kongrou's thoughts gradually began to wander, and as her thoughts became more and more unrestrained, a sweet smile gradually appeared on her face, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
He Gu carefully controlled the flying sword to fly outward while checking the condition of the Tianji Stone, but he did not notice anything strange about the girl in his arms.
Counting the time, today is the third day. I thought that Kong Rou's prophecy of death in three days would be eliminated, but when I looked at it, I found that it was still intact.
Isn't it over yet?
With doubts, he went through the development of the past few days again. When he recalled the people involved in the matter, he found a fish that slipped through the net that might be the reason.
Sun Zi, the fat man who calls himself the leader of the Wuming Gang.
