Who is this mysterious man? Why help yourself? Zhang Jianlai was puzzled.
Although the other party may not be his savior, he can still get him out of danger.
However, the mass graves ten miles away are very dangerous. People who have been there don't know how many people died there. Now no one dares to go there.
Moreover, the appearance of a large group of "black bears" in the mass graves made the mass graves even more terrifying.
Doesn't this make it clear that Zhang Jian is going to die? Is she making things difficult for him, or helping him?
Guan Mingyue firmly opposed Zhang Jianlai's visit to the mass grave. He did not want his sweetheart to die.
However, after Guan Tianhai also found out about this, he agreed with Zhang Jianlai's proposal.
After a dispute, Guan Mingyue finally obeyed Zhang Jianlai, and she also wanted to go to the mass graves together.
When black bears appear, it's usually around 7pm, so they have to arrive at this time.
The next day, Zhang Jianlai spent twenty taels of silver to rent a carriage in the city and set off with Guan Mingyue.
He walked away all the way, raising dust all over the sky.
There is no one on the road, there is only a mountain road, with two mountains on both sides, and a rushing river below.
This big river is unusually wide. The mountains on both sides seem to have deliberately avoided this big river, and in this river, there is a pond with a diameter of more than ten feet.
Climbing a hill, you can see desolation and desolate vegetation. Looking around, you can't see a village or a single family. What you can see is just a piece of grass and a forest.
There is a piece of scorched earth not far away, and the charred trees are spreading their teeth and claws on the mountainside, as if they are going to burst the earth.
Suddenly the sky became dark, blocking out the sunlight. There was silence in the cemetery-like wasteland, except for a few strange birds that made shrill cries, like ghosts crying and wolves howling.
As the sun sets, I look into a deep valley in the northwest. The fog is heavy. The mouth of the valley is exposed to the lingering sunlight, showing a dim red atmosphere.
A strange aura spread in the void, as if it was controlled by an inexplicable force.
"Brother Jianlai, what do you think that is?" Guan Mingyue suddenly exclaimed.
Zhang Jianlaiding looked up and saw a black bear crawling next to a cemetery not far away. It was covered in dark brown. When he saw them, he opened his big mouth and showed off his power.
Especially the pair of eyes in front that were faintly emitting a terrifying red light made the hairs on their whole bodies stand up. Even her feet were trembling uncontrollably because of too much fear.
It turns out that there are indeed such big black bears in the mass graves. No wonder people are scared and on high alert when they hear about this place.
This black bear is a big pet and seems to have strong attack power. In a head-on confrontation, Zhang Jianlai may not be his opponent, but he still has more or less fighting experience.
Zhang Jianlai slowly looked for the black bear's breakthrough point and took the initiative.
Just as he was preparing to challenge the black bear's power, the black bear seemed to smell the threatening atmosphere of outsiders.
Suddenly, the ferocious face of the black bear showed a ferocious and bloodthirsty expression. At such a close distance, it even sent a chill down the heart.
"Brother Jianlai, be careful!"
Guan Mingyue reminded, her eyes full of fear, but also revealing a strong desire to defeat. She clutched Zhang Jianlai's hand tightly, digging her nails into the flesh, as if she was afraid of losing her own flesh and blood.
Zhang Jianlai had a feeling that there was no need to be afraid. He slowly approached the black bear. At this time, the black bear roared lowly, its fangs exposed, and looked at him with full vigilance.
But soon, Zhang Jianlai realized that something was wrong. Even if he fought hard, it would be difficult to reverse the situation.
Seeing the black bear attacking him, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind. Without any hesitation, he raised his right arm and waved forward. With this wave, a black light suddenly flew out of his body and expanded in the blink of an eye. Blocked in front of the black bear.
The black bear suddenly retreated, its mouth moved slightly, and its face showed a ferocious look, indicating that something had changed.
How could Zhang Jianlai give up so easily? He couldn't let the black bear escape on the spot. He shouted, "Beast!" He heard a roar in the cold air, and then the blood light surged. Zhang Jianlai soared into the sky from the blood light, holding in his hand The long sword swept across, and blood suddenly spurted out, staining the side of his handsome face, making it look a bit white and ferocious.
"Haha, it turns out he is so vulnerable." Zhang Jianlai's face suddenly beamed with joy.
Guan Mingyue saw this scene and was about to congratulate Zhang Jianlai when she suddenly realized something was wrong and her expression changed drastically. She wanted to tell Zhang Jianlai to run away quickly, but it was already too late.
Several more black bears suddenly surrounded Zhang Jianlai. Guan Mingyue was shocked and screamed involuntarily.
This exclamation made Zhang Jianlai's face turn pale, and he staggered back a few steps before standing still, with a very complicated expression on his face.
After a moment, that expression finally turned into firm determination.
Zhang Jianlai jumped up, unsheathed his long sword, and cut a black bear in half at an extremely fast speed before he could react!
Several black bears around him were also trembling, showing their sharp fangs and staring at Zhang Jianlai with wary expressions.
Then, Zhang Jianlai jumped up again, using his sword energy freely, he chopped the black bear into pieces and howled.
The black bear instantly fell into rage again, roaring deafeningly from its throat, and the surrounding leaves and branches all trembled under this long roar.
It looked like a bloody battle, but in this crisis-ridden world, Zhang Jianlai looked like he was resigned to death.
"bring it on!"
Zhang Jianlai shouted loudly, jumped into the air, drew an arc in mid-air, and hit the black bear hard with a force that could penetrate the giant bear.
The black bear fell to the ground and made a creepy sound, like the howl of an evil spirit. They were all startled by this sudden change.
Zhang Jianlai was relieved and got a precious bear skin, and his cultivation level was greatly improved.
"Brother Jianlai, you're doing well. I was so worried just now." Guan Mingyue ran over and said.
At this time, her face had returned to calmness, and was no longer as pale as before. On the contrary, after experiencing a life-and-death fight, her face had a touch of rosy color, making her look even more bright and attractive.
"Well, it's okay, I finally got the bearskin." Zhang Jianlai said excitedly.
There was a bit of weariness on his face, but there was peaceful joy in his eyes, and he held Guan Mingyue's warm and jade-like little hand in his hand.
At this moment, Guan Mingyue was both excited and a little nervous. This was her dream.
After a fierce battle, the mass grave became extremely silent, with only the sound of rushing water and the rustling of fallen leaves, and nothing else.
