In a valley on the official road from Yongchang County to Lijun Basin, there was a chaotic scene.
Crazy tigers, leopards and jackals roared and bit everything in sight. What was even more frightening was that the bison, elk and the like, which were usually relatively docile and herbivorous, were also charging around with red eyes!
A wolf jumped on the back of a wild bull and viciously tore off a piece of meat before being thrown off. It only took a moment to gather strength and then showed its claws at an injured tiger, not caring at all about its small size. The body is also scarred.
More beasts were wrapped and pushed towards the two vehicle frames, and then vented their nameless anger on those people and horses!
There were so many wild beasts that they surrounded them from all directions, giving the convoy no time to react and escape. In just a moment, two carriages and five cavalry were trapped.
The five cavalrymen formed a circular formation under the leadership of the leader and flew around the two carriages. They used long knives to kill the beasts that dared to approach, but they were unable to deter the surrounding beasts.
"Are these beasts crazy?!" The leader was none other than Li Mu. He followed the running trend of the war horse and lifted the standard long knife in his hand. With a flash of light blue light, a swooping cheetah was killed. It was neatly divided into two, and the beast's blood was stirred back by Li Mu's momentum, splashing all over the nearby beasts, but it did not make them frightened at all, "Damn it, what are they crazy about?!"
"The number of wild beasts is increasing, Lord Commander?!" Following Li Mu was none other than General Cao Bai. His upper body fell backwards, and he swung his standard long sword towards the ground, with a light green blade. The light shone imperceptibly for a moment, and the head of a wild jackal that sneaked up on the horse's leg was separated. He stood up and shouted to Li Mu in front, "If we don't break through... it will be too late!"
Li Mu heard the words and looked up. Wild beasts kept rushing out of the forest, biting each other crazily. After a while, they all ran towards this place. The number of wild beasts surrounding here was gradually increasing, "Er Gou, you guys The three of you go and dismantle the frame, Cao Baijiang, you and I will circle the frame and charge at it twice more!"
All the cavalrymen agreed in unison!
Li Mu glanced at the two coachmen who had been hiding under the carriage for a long time, and clamped the horse's belly. The war horse connected with him and rushed towards the place where the herd of animals was densest in front of the convoy. The long knife swept across, and the light blue light rushed out of the long distance. The knife was four to five meters long, like a giant magic weapon, sweeping through the gathered beasts!
It looks like a death scythe!
Some of the beasts in the group were chopped off horizontally, some were decapitated with a knife, and some had a limb cut off. The blood of the beasts spattered and dyed a large area of the nearby land red!
Li Mu didn't even look at the red battlefield. Instead, he turned to look at the carriage that had been chopped open by three cavalrymen. There was no one in the carriage. He raised his eyes and scanned the surrounding jungle, but couldn't see any clues. He raised his left arm and shouted, "Entire team, forward formation!"
The sound shook the surrounding areas, covering up the howls of all wild beasts!
Then, a high-pitched beast roar came from the forest on one side, "Roar!!"
Li Mu's pupils shrank, and he quickly turned his head to look in the direction of the sound, but was blocked by the dense forest. He could only hear the faint sound of breaking trees, "Cao Baijiang!"
"Here!" General Cao Bai on the other side of the convoy turned his horse and rushed in the direction of Li Mu. He raised his right hand and grasped it. The long knife that was originally inserted into the body of a brown bear next to the horse flew back to his hand with a "whoosh" sound. !
"With you as the leader, the cavalry team will clash in front of the formation and encircle you!" Li Mu yelled out the command and threw the long knife into the mouth of a fierce tiger that was flying towards him. His hands were constantly forming seals, and a light blue light flashed. It flew out from the luggage on his horse, and after turning around his head, the light suddenly bloomed, forming a three- to four-meter-long giant sword of light!
Li Mu put his hands on the back of the war horse, then lightly landed on the lightsaber and cupped his hands, saying, "General Cao Bai, brothers, please help me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man followed the sword and turned into a rainbow of light and flew into the forest where the beast's roar came from!
"Don't worry, Lord Commander!" General Cao Bai replied without raising his head. He rushed past the three cavalrymen with his horse and went straight to the group of wild beasts in front, "Charge with me!"
The three cavalrymen looked at the direction in which Li Mu Yujian left, and then at the coachman who was hiding under the broken carriage and crying for help, and then hesitantly rode to chase Cao Baijiang.
Just as the four of them accelerated their mounts to rush into the wild beasts, a loud noise came from the forest where Li Mu was leaving.
"Boom!!"
——————————————————————
The official road from Yongchang County to Lijun Basin is surrounded by lush mountain forests on both sides.
On the other side of the mountain opposite to where Li Mu was in the forest, on the tallest ginkgo tree, sat a man wrapped in a black robe. He had one foot on the tree branch and the other leisurely. It was hanging in the air and swaying, with water vapor steaming from all over its body, exuding a strange and inexplicable colorful brilliance in the sunset.
"Since you're here, there's no need to hide your head and show your tail." The man in black robe raised his hand, and a falling ginkgo leaf landed on his fingertips. Colorful water vapor splashed onto the leaf, and the originally golden The ginkgo leaves instantly turned blue, and the color was bright and clear like blue crystal.
Xin waved his hand back, and two trees that could not be embraced by one person were chopped off by one leaf, and the cuts were smooth!
And where the strange leaves pointed, a slender figure wearing a snow-white robe hung in the air. The blue leaves floated quietly half a meter in front of him. The blue water vapor broke away and drifted away, and finally returned to its original golden color. , and then the fallen leaves return to their roots.
The man in black tilted his head and glanced in the direction of the man in white, then returned his gaze to the valley in the distance, "You are not from Lijun."
The body of the man in white floated strangely to the tree trunk that had been chopped off by the man in black and stood there. He stretched out his right hand as white as jade and brushed the unnecessary dust on the sleeve of his left arm, "It's time for you to go."
The man in black robe chuckled, "Just because you...want to drive me away?"
"How brave," the man in white sneered, "I never thought that snakes, insects, rats, and ants could be so arrogant and interesting once they became spirits." He looked past the man in black robe and looked at the chaotic scene in the valley. He said slowly, "This is the cause and effect between you and Lijun. I don't want to interfere too deeply. People from Lijun will arrive soon. If you don't leave... do you want to stay in Zhongzhou forever?!"
"Zhongzhou without Old Man Lu is not as scary as you think. Even though there are many strong men that I can't match, I'm afraid they are all busy at the moment." The man in black robe still chuckled in a low and suppressed voice, Without looking back at the man in white behind him, he just swayed one leg and said, "I have been dealing with people from Lijun for many years. You said they will arrive soon? Hehe, how could they do it if you didn't give them two days? It can’t be reached.”
"Two days?" The man in white pondered for a moment, "After two days, the person you want to kill can still return to Li city safely. Since you made the wrong move this time, you should admit defeat if you are willing to bet. It will cost you more." So what if it’s two days?”
The man in black robe turned to look at the man in white robe again, shrugged and said casually, "If he passes here in two days, it's none of my business."
The man in white frowned slightly, "Then...I will stay with you for two days."
"What are you so worried about me doing...?" The man in black robe suddenly stood up, pointed at the man in white and laughed, "So... you still let him take that ancient road. !!”
