Chapter 196: Intercept
Yushan.
The next morning, Li Xiuran and Yang Wenxin and Chi Qingwan left the inn together, and found them all the way as shown in the map.
At the foot of the mountain, you can see a village from afar, with a stream winding by the mountains and waters, with beautiful scenery.
However, the village is now overgrown with weeds, large areas of houses collapse, leaving only broken walls, and it looks lifeless.
Li Xiuran and the other two rode horses and looked at the village in front of them: "This place should be Shangyu Village."
"The corpse demon has been pacified, but it is still so desolate. No one comes back to live. It seems that the people who escaped by chance still did not survive in the end." Chi Qingwan looked around, looked at the desolate scene in the village, and sighed softly.
Yang Wenxin looked up at the mountain in front of her and frowned slightly, "The mountain is not very high, but it is continuous and covers a lot of land. No one in the village survives. We can't find anyone to ask where the hunter met the corpse monster. We can only search for it on our own.
Even if there are clues in the mountains, we want to find them, aren’t it small?”
Li Xiuran also looked up and saw that the mountain was indeed not small, with more than a dozen mountains, and he could not see the edge at all. He didn't know where the hunter encountered the corpse monster. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack. It was indeed not easy to find.
but……
"I've come here, I can't go back again. Just take a chance and go in and look for it."
"That's all." Yang Wenxin nodded.
The three of them didn't stop for a long time. After saying that, they shook the reins and headed towards the mountains together.
"Swoosh!"
Suddenly, as soon as the three of them turned around, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang behind them, and they rushed towards them quickly.
Li Xiuran's face changed instantly, and he noticed the sound behind him, and a sense of crisis suddenly enveloped his heart.
Since breaking through to the Shenzang Realm, his ability to perceive danger has improved a lot. The last time he was attacked by Shen Cang, the head of the Wangyou Pavilion, was because he sensed the danger in time.
He was thrillingly avoiding it. Now the sense of crisis has come again, which means that the sound of breaking through the air sounded behind him was his target!
Li Xiuran did not hesitate at all, and suddenly leaned forward to avoid it. At the same time, Yang Wenxin's urgent reminder came from his ear: "Be careful!"
"Swoosh!"
Almost as Li Xiuran bent down, a sharp arrow came in the air, almost quickly passing by his back, and with a bang, it nailed to a big tree in front of him, and most of the arrow was sank into the trunk.
Li Xiuran looked up at the arrow tail that was still trembling slightly, and breathed a sigh of relief with lingering fear. Fortunately, he noticed it in time and avoided it, otherwise it would be his chest that would be penetrated.
Then a sudden burst of anger arose in his heart. He immediately turned his horse's head and looked behind him. A large number of men in black jumped out of the village, with their feet connected to the ground, their bodies were low and their speed was fast, as if they were flying against the ground, holding a long sword in their hands, and surrounding the three of them.
Behind the man in black, a figure in black robe holding a long bow stood there, looking at Li Xiuran, and said coldly: "You can avoid this."
Li Xiuran's face darkened. He knew that he was the leader of these people. He looked at him tightly and said in a deep voice: "Are you Xue Dingqian's person?"
"I am a person who is afraid of by adults. I guessed my identity directly, but it doesn't matter if I let you know." The black-robed figure raised his hand and took off the veil on his face, looked at Li Xiuran with a slight look, and his face was murderous:
"I can actually find this place. Since you are seeking death by yourself, I can only help you today."
It was you... Li Xiuran's eyes tightened and he recognized that this person was the man who had been following him in the mansion before.
I can really find this place... In other words, he didn't know that I would come, which means he was not following me here, nor did he find my trace in the county town, but stayed here in advance!
The fact that Xue Dinggan is able to pay so much attention shows that there is indeed a problem in the mountains!
And we came to investigate, and it was really right... Li Xiuran suddenly realized in his heart that the anger just now disappeared instantly and was replaced by joy. Looking at the man, a joke flashed across his face:
"It turns out that I can't be sure if there is really a problem on the mountain. I just came here to try my luck. I didn't expect to meet you. It seems that there is really a problem here. Thank you for letting me know."
The man's face suddenly turned dark and then returned to nature. He looked at Li Xiuran and said with a blank expression: "So what? Do you think you can escape today?
Kill them for me, and no one will be left!"
"I'm afraid that the person who wants to escape is not me!"
Li Xiuran sneered, looking at the large number of men in black who had come close to him and were trying to surround the three of them. His right hand instantly touched the handle of the knife at his waist, and then he kicked his feet hard on the kick, and his body suddenly rose into the air. With the inertia of falling, he held the knife in both hands and slashed the head of a man in black.
The other party was shocked and quickly blocked the knife.
Unfortunately, Li Xiuran was too strong and could not stop him. The long sword in his hand was directly smashed down by a knife, and the sharp blade slashed hard in front of his chest.
"puff!"
A mouthful of blood was spurted out of the man in black's mouth, and then the spirit in his eyes quickly dissipated, his body fell softly to the ground, and he was killed with one knife.
Fortunately, these people should be almost the same in the Killing Realm, so it is not difficult to deal with... Li Xiuran tried out the strength of the man in black and breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the men in black who took the opportunity to besiege, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, stepped on his feet, and waved his sword to take the initiative to greet him.
Behind him, Yang Wenxin and Chi Qingwan also jumped up from the horse and jumped toward the man in black.
Yang Wenxin drew his sword in his hand, pointed directly at a man in black, jumped over and slashed in front of his chest with a knife, and blood gushed out instantly, and the latter died directly.
Yang Wenxin was not at all slow. He turned his blade and then slashed at the person next to him.
"when!"
Chi Qingwan waved her sword to block the sword that came from a man in black, making a crisp sound. The long sword in the man in black broke in response. Under his astonished gaze, a silver light flashed in Chi Qingwan's hand, and a sword pierced his chest, then suddenly pulled it out and turned to face the other person.
Li Xiuran and the other two faced dozens of men in black. Although the number of men in black was far inferior to each other, he and Yang Wenxin both had the cultivation level of the Shenzang Realm, while men in black were basically in the Kandan Realm. In terms of strength, they were not inferior at all, and they even won.
Facing the siege of the man in black, the three of them were at ease and stood firmly at the upper hand.
In the distance, the man in black robe watched his subordinates fall down one by one, and his heart suddenly sank. The strength of Li Xiuran and the other two was obviously beyond his expectations. He knew that he could not wait any longer, otherwise when his subordinates died, Li Xiuran and the other two would free up their hands, afraid that he would be in danger too.
As soon as he thought of this, the man in black robe stepped on his foot and his body instantly shot out. At the same time, he drew his sword in his hand, pointed directly at Li Xiuran, and slashed him with a knife.
