Chapter 33: Wu Ling

Hiding in the mountains not far from the village, and not far from the main road. Yi Yan saw many teams running past the main road, and even the teams entered the village.

Yi Yan knew that those who were chasing him were right. They already knew that they were in this area and must have seen the horse that had stabbed the buttocks, so they chose this range to search. The reason why he stopped leaving was not only because he was exhausted, but also because he felt that they should have found this place at this time. As expected, it was not as he expected.

He sat in the dense forest and leaned against a tree, and his hunger was already numb.

He slowly closed his eyes and calmed down. Although he would be cruel and ruthless in his face now, his heart was still filled with fear and anxiety. Perhaps because he had killed many people, he did not care too much about his death. What he cared about was what would happen to his family after his death.

These days, he deliberately didn't think about it. I don't know where he heard a sentence: "Memories always make people weak, especially those beautiful ones."

Seeing the heaven and earth fading in his eyes, his world seemed to have turned from blood to gray.

Thoughts float and merge into this world.

The noise brought by the light also disappeared with the arrival of darkness, and as darkness appeared, a kind of coldness and depth.

His body was tired, his heart was uneasy.

He didn't know if he was asleep. When he was half awake and half a year old, his heart was open and he was indulging in the arms of heaven and earth.

He was like a dream. In the dream, he turned into a light breeze, flying between the sky and the earth, and dreamed that he became a piece of earth, allowing plants to grow on his body. He did not feel fear, but felt a sense of peace. He felt that he had become a tree, absorbing the dew falling from the nine heavens.

He was as if he heard the language of everything.

When he opened his eyes again, there was darkness in front of him, but he felt unprecedented ease. The fear and anxiety that had originally been pressed on him sank in the darkness and sank into the bottomless abyss.

A snake in his arms was there, and Yi Yan carefully pinched it and placed it on the grass aside. In the past, he was extremely afraid of such a soft and cold animal, but now he did not feel so scared.

The original fatigue was gone, and this sleep was like sleeping for ten thousand years.

Yi Yan stood up and although he still felt a little sore everywhere in his body, his mental state recovered very well.

He only felt that this was the most at sank of sleep in such a long time. I don’t know if his vision has improved, but he could see more than ten meters away in the darkness, and the further part was hazy and blurry, but it was not that kind of darkness.

He walked towards the village.

No matter what kind of place, there was a gap between the rich and the poor. He came to a pretty good-looking house, jumped over the fence, entered the house, found some food to eat, picked up the largest sweet potato and left. Everything seemed to have never happened, and even the only dog ​​in the village was not alarmed.

Not many people have raised dogs these days because it is difficult for people to eat, let alone dogs. Since leaving their hometown, Yi Yan has experienced the saying that the mountains and rivers are broken and the country is about to perish. When he heard this sentence in the past, he only thought it was a alarmist statement from some people.

Facing the night wind and wading with the darkness, Yi Yan strides in the darkness, but it is still the same road, but at this moment he comes, he feels like a road that never ends, but now he only thinks it is a road of martial arts. At this moment, he feels that he has become the swordsman in his heart, holding one hand and a sweet potato in the other hand, and biting it, and he doesn't care if the juice splashes.

When he thought of Wang Su, he thought he would not know if he would look for me after hearing my disappearance. He also thought of the unknown song he had sang outside the temple, and his walking steps couldn't help but open again. He felt a sense of floating up, and he didn't feel it himself.

When his thoughts were clear, Yi Yan had already determined what he was going to do now. He wanted to go to the Governor. He wanted to tell him the conspiracy of the Mu family in Yunnan and to tell him that Yuanyuan had an unknown origin.

And he recalled the voice he was talking behind the mountain village of Tanlang Mountain, Mu Yun.

He wants to take this opportunity to stay with the Governor, gain his trust, and thus receive his teachings. Now he has not forgotten that he needs to understand the methods of practice, and he also needs to know how to "seek the spirit".

There was fog on the earth, and when I looked up, the starlight had become blurred.

Yi Yan suddenly stopped, his right hand had already put on the hilt of the sword. His eyes looked around vigilantly. The sleep he slept today made his mind feel much more relaxed, and his perception was improved unknowingly.

At this time, he felt someone was peeking at him, as if he was watching from a distance, but another feeling told him that someone was near him.

His eyes narrowed slightly, trying to see if there was danger hidden around him. A faint blue appeared in his eyes, but at most this only made his eyes better and he could not see the danger hidden in the dark fog.

Just when he decided not to care about this uncertain danger, the sound of horse hooves appeared in the darkness facing him. The sound of horse hooves was very slow, and he was riding alone.

Yi Yan stood still, and a dark horse appeared, the dark horse was tall and majestic. A woman sat on the back of the horse, wearing a black robe, as if she was afraid of the cold, because the black robe looked very thick.

Her hair was spread out, but there was a ruby ​​iron trap on her forehead. Maybe it wasn't iron, maybe it wasn't ruby, but Yi Yan noticed it at first sight.

With people and horses, the only red place in the black is always easier to notice.

She is not a very beautiful woman, but she has another strange charm.

She rode on the horse and approached, Yi Yan noticed a black ring on her right index finger.

Yi Yan's hand was placed on the hilt of the sword again. Although he didn't know the purpose of the girl who suddenly appeared, he felt that she was extremely dangerous.

For a moment, neither of them made a sound. However, the woman's horse was standing off and she walked by Yi Yan's side. Just as she passed by, the woman suddenly said, "Sir, let me tell you that if you can reach Wuling Town 70 miles away when the sun rises the day after tomorrow, then you will be fine."

Yi Yan was secretly shocked and immediately understood that the master she was talking about was the governor. He did not expect that she was actually the person next to the governor.

Yi Yan didn't hear about Wuling Town, and he didn't know how to get there.

The woman suddenly reached out and grabbed the void. A fog whip appeared in her hand and swung it out. She fell to the ground in front of Yi Yan. The whip dissipated. The horse suddenly accelerated and jumped into the fog. In a blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace, and there was no sound.

The moment the horse jumped up seemed extremely light. He watched it disappear before he could see how she appeared near him.

Looking down at the ground, there was a whip mark. The whip mark was split, and there were a few words on the line.

"Wuling Town."

Yi Yan was surprised that the woman's whip fell to the ground and turned into a map, although the map was very simple.

He couldn't help but look back and thought that since Wuling Town is only seventy miles away from here, you can arrive tonight, why do you need to take the day after tomorrow? When he looked down, the simple map had disappeared.

He realized that the seventy miles of road would never be peaceful. Since it was the messenger sent by the Governor, it can be imagined that the seventy miles of road would be extremely dangerous.

Yi Yan guessed that this area had been blocked by the Mu family, but since the Governor asked him to go to Wuling Town, then go. Fortunately in his heart, the Governor finally noticed him and sent someone to tell him where to go.

He decided to go to Wuling Town, which was ahead.

He walked forward with great strides, and the spiritual power surging with the beating of his heart gave him strong confidence.

Although fear still grows in my heart, it is very expelled.

There was a sound of a horse running in front of him, and he was walking in the middle of the road.

Yi Yan tried hard to see clearly, but after the fog merged into the darkness, his vision was greatly reduced.

The horse ran closer and closer, and rushed towards him. He flashed to one side of the road, and a horse appeared in his eyes again, but what attracted his attention was the scimitar that raised high and slashed down on his head.

The evil spirit on the scimitar is heavy, this is a knife that has been refined with evil spirits.

He also saw clearly the face of the knight, who was the one who escaped yesterday. He was a little surprised because he was not his opponent, so why did he come?

The horse passed by, and the knife slashed hard. Yi Yan flashed by, the sword was unsheathed, and the moment he stabbed the horse's waist, he felt a strong sense of danger coming from behind.

The sword in his hand circled around his head in an instant.

"bite."

An arrow was blocked by the sword, and the power on the arrow was very heavy. At the same time, he felt the strange feeling coming from the sword body. He understood that it was not an ordinary archer, and that arrow was a talisman arrow.

The horse's hooves suddenly sounded, and the horse had turned around and rushed towards him, slashing it on his head with a knife.

Yi Yan did not draw his sword this time, but dodged, and no more arrows shot from behind him. The knight on the horse looked in his forties, with wrinkles on his face. If he were to be in his place, Yi Yan would only think that he was an old farmer, but now his face was only silent and his eyes were calm, which was an expression that only those who were used to life and death would have.

He rode his horse over again and slashed it with one sword. Yi Yan dodged away, stabbed it with one sword, and shot another arrow from the darkness.

Yi Yan whirled around, avoided the arrow, and rushed into the darkness. It was the direction where the arrow shot out, and the arrow came from the woods.

An unknown bird rushed towards Yi Yan's face silently. The sword in his hand stabbed out, and a faint blue light appeared during the stabbing of the sword. The bird dispersed with the sword, but it was not a real bird.

An unknown piece of talisman paper was pierced by a sword.

Another arrow shot straight from above. Yi Yan's sword did not retract, but jumped up because the arrow came from above, stabbed out with a sword, and pointed it at the tip of the arrow, and the arrow broke open.

Yi Yan's body rose like the wind, with the sword in front and the person behind. He had already seen the archer sitting upright on a tree, and a black snake was lying on the stud of the tree above his head, which was impossible to see from Yi Yan's perspective.

An excitement flashed in his eyes, as if he had seen a prey fall into a trap.

The snake is called the Black Jade Scale Snake. It is extremely toxic and the scales on its body are even tougher, so it is difficult for the sword to be damaged. Moreover, if it lies there and does not move, it will be difficult for practitioners to discover that he has assassinated many practitioners with this snake.
