Saying goodbye to the old man guarding the tomb, Lu Jiu was preparing to return to Changyi County, but compared to when he came, the rain was a little heavier unknowingly.

Walk down the grave along the mountain road, without the blocking of the tall buildings in the city, and wind and rain pass by indiscriminately in the wilderness.

There were several scattered saplings on both sides of the road falling in the wind and rain, and Lu Jiu turned the umbrella towards the direction of the wind and rain.

Looking at the outline of the city in the distance and realizing that he might have to walk a long way to get back, Lu Jiu couldn't help but feel a little upset about why he didn't let the coachman stay before.

After walking a section of the road, Lu Jiu's gaze suddenly stopped somewhere at the end of the mountain road.

There was a black umbrella stopping there, and it was still very eye-catching even in the wind and rain...

In this kind of weather, who else would come to such a grave besides someone like me?

For no reason, Lu Jiu felt something bad in his heart, but his steps did not stop. There was no reason to let him return to the mountain just by just a black umbrella.

As the distance between the two sides moved in, the blurred figure that was originally blocked by the rain gradually became clear. Because of the different positions of the two sides, Lu Jiu could only see his lower body at first.

Unlike Lu Jiu's walking method that was obliquely erected by the umbrella, the man's umbrella was very straight and stopped on the side of the road. His gray trousers were wet by the rain and had no intention of covering them at all. He seemed to have noticed Lu Jiu's approaching and his body gradually turned to him.

There was no movement other than that. He held an umbrella with his right hand and his left hand hanging on his side, and he didn't go up or down.

After walking a few more steps forward, the distance between the two sides had been narrowed to ten meters. Lu Jiu's eyes quickly crossed the man's waist, his wrists and behind him, and there was no sign of a weapon. He felt relieved in his heart.

Just as he continued walking forward, he suddenly realized that the man was wearing a blue-gray top on his upper body, and his figure became more and more familiar with him as he looked at it.

Lu Jiu's steps were stiff. No matter how he told him that it was impossible in his heart, the umbrella edge that the person in front of him gradually raised still made him feel uncomfortable.

In an instant, Lu Jiu's pupils shrank violently, and he felt that the hairs on his body stood up in an instant, and the chill spread throughout his body!

The brown oil-paper umbrella was blown away by the wind and rain. Without any hesitation, Lu Jiu pulled out the shotgun and pulled the trigger forward.

The moment the smoke rose, Lu Jiu didn't even look at the man again, and turned around and ran to the side of the road.

Yes, Lu Jiu would never admit his mistake with that familiar face. It was another person who appeared in front of him... the heart-wrenching ghost!

Lu Jiu couldn't understand why the heart-cutting ghost appeared here.

This is completely unreasonable. According to inference, the heart-cutting ghost at this time should have obtained the clues mentioned by the tomb robbers and will inevitably continue to pursue the body of the predecessor.

He knew he was still alive, so he deliberately waited for him to come to Changyi City?

Or is the heart-cutting ghost that has found itself through the tomb robbers in the past few days and followed it all the way?

In any case, one thing is certain.

This is definitely not a coincidence, he is just waiting for him on the mountain road!

what to do?

Running in the wilderness, looking at the bare hillside ahead, Lu Jiu couldn't even find an area where he could hide, let alone get rid of the approaching crisis behind him.

Constantly swallowing the few remaining demon blood ice cubes, Lu Jiu had never tried to go on a second run in a short period of time, but now he has no choice.

Feeling the continuous surging power in his body, Lu Jiu finally looked at the wilderness in the distance. In the hazy rain, the outline of Changyi City was so far away...

His pace gradually slowed down. After the initial panic, Lu Jiu knew that it was useless to continue escaping. Even if he barely maintained his current distance by relying on his rampage, he would not be able to rush into Changyi City in such a short time.

In fact, even if he rushed in, he couldn't find Jingyesi's people to help him.

With his body turned around, Lu Jiu stood still, and the rain slid across his face, as cold as his mood at this moment.

A dozen meters away, the figure holding a black umbrella seemed to be moving forward without any rush, but when his steps were raised, he often jumped a few meters away in an instant, and grass leaves and mud rose up behind him.

Taking off his backpack, Lu Jiu held the Wuchang Gun, gritted his teeth and endured the soreness and swelling coming from all over his body when he turned on the rampage again. The rainwater within two meters of his body began to tilt towards him. Then he unexpectedly discovered that his extraordinary ability, which was originally extremely concealed, had great defects on such rainy days.

The surging airflow caused the deflection of the rainwater to be impossible to cover up...

However, Lu Jiu has no time to take care of this, because he must do his best in this battle!

He lowered his body, crushed his feet across the mud, and Lu Jiu rushed towards the heart-cut ghost, and the latter had already thrown down the black umbrella at this time.

As the distance reached five meters, Lu Jiu suddenly released a hand and lifted the black veil mask on his face. He hoped that this would be exchanged for the surprise and delay of the heart-cutting ghost for a second, but the result was extremely disappointing.

The face that was exactly the same as Lu Jiu was just looking back in a plain way, and even didn't frown at all, as if it had guessed it long ago.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

When he pulled into the position where the Impermanent shotgun could exert its maximum lethality, Lu Jiu pulled the trigger one after another without hesitation, pouring out the violent firepower of the Impermanent shotgun.

However, the heart-wrenching ghost that was originally still in front of him rose up at this moment and appeared directly above Lu Jiu's head the next second. The latter was not panicked at this time. A ball of air flowed between the two of them, and a strong wind rose up flat on the ground, wrapped in the rain all over the sky and rolled upwards.

At the same time, Lu Jiu's gun had already been turned back. He guessed that the heart-cutting ghost would approach the air and blasted out the remaining two bullets.

I thought it was a sure attack, but the next scene completely overturned Lu Jiu's idea.

The heart-grabbing ghost, who had nowhere to leverage force in the air, actually directly extended his left hand forward, and his forearm and upper arm showed a shield-holding posture at right angles.

The next second, the blue-gray sleeves burst, and a large number of metal pieces popped out under the flesh of the forearm that was horizontally placed on the chest, and then they bloomed like petals. In just a few seconds, the forearm had formed a metal shield about one foot long as the core.

That is not a human flesh and blood arm at all, but a mechanical prosthesis!

The projectile hit the surface of this seemingly thin shield, and except for splashing out a large number of Mars, it would not make any progress...

The Heart-Grapping Ghost obviously did not intend to give Lu Jiu a chance to reload the bullets. He withstood this wave of impact, put away the iron shield, and smashed it with one punch.
