Chapter 120 Killing
Chapter 120 Killing
Seeing that there were more officers chasing them today than yesterday, the people in the valley had no intention of taking action again. They had suffered a great loss yesterday and their injuries had not yet healed. Anyway, Ning Ji and the others were controlling the puppet to block them!
However, just as they were about to flee on horseback, Ning Ji shot a crossbow arrow towards the front of them. Suddenly, a big tree fell down, blocking their way!
He Biao and others hurriedly grabbed the reins and glared at him.
"Ning Ji! What are you going to do?"
It was obvious that this big tree had been placed there earlier. They didn't expect Ning Ji to have left this one behind. What was the meaning of blocking them?
Ning Ji did not reply, but looked at the officials who were getting closer and closer in the distance.
Bai Shi Pai and the others had no choice but to turn their horses around and run in another direction, but they didn't run far before another big tree fell in front of them and almost crushed them!
This immediately made them furious!
“Ning Ji!!!”
He Biao glared at Ning Ji with gritted teeth, but due to this delay, the officers were already very close!
Helplessly, they could only draw their swords to fight the enemy, and then settle the score with Ning Ji!
A fierce fight broke out in the valley again, and Ning Ji and Si He stood on the rocks on the side of the valley, facing the enemy with cold faces.
On the way to escape, everyone had their own ideas, and they all planned to let others delay the officials, but Ning Ji had already taken action.
Zhao Mie and Wei Hu fled even earlier. Since there were only two of them, it would be easier for them to leave than the group of people from the Bai Shi Sect, and they didn't have as many concerns.
Si He didn't say anything about Ning Ji's actions. After a while, she asked, "Cousin, are we leaving now?"
He said, “Wait a little longer.”
Although there seemed to be many officials chasing us today, the only troublesome ones were the two black-clad guards, but they were entangled by Black Hawk.
There was a fight in the valley. The people from Baishi Sect and Taiyi Sect were fighting and retreating in other directions. They even deliberately led the officials towards Ning Ji and the other two.
The officials also received rewards for capturing fugitives. Compared with the escaped disciples of the sect, the rewards for Ning Ji and Si He were naturally more attractive, so most of the officials were led to their side.
Ning Ji drew his sword, leaped forward, and rushed towards the officers with a murderous aura that could not be ignored.
The officers swarmed over, trying to use their numbers to capture the seemingly fugitive.
However, Ning Ji's body was as swift as a cheetah, and he moved nimbly among the officers, brandishing his sword with sword lights flashing like weaving. Many officers were beheaded before they could react!
Each of his sword strikes was extremely precise, hitting the vital points, and the officers found it difficult to get close to him. Their numerical advantage seemed powerless in front of him.
Some officers wanted to retreat, but when they saw Si He not far away, they turned around and attacked her.
Si He looked at the official coming towards her, a sneer on her lips. She tiptoed hard and leaped up as lightly as a swallow. In a blink of an eye, she jumped onto a tall tree next to her.
The trunk of the tree was three or four meters above the ground. She stood on the trunk and continued to jump upwards. Finally, she stood seven or eight meters above the ground, looking at the officials below.
She had only learned martial arts from Ning Ji for a period of time, and her skills were only mediocre. She couldn't beat the enemy, but she could escape.
These officers were not very skilled and only carried swords, no bows or other weapons, so she was naturally not afraid.
Seeing her excellent Qinggong skills, the officers were worried. How could they catch her?!
At this time, Ning Ji came back to kill. His swordsmanship was sharp, like a killing god. Every time he swung his sword, the officers would scream and fall to the ground.
In the distance, Black Hawk had already taken care of the two black-clad guards. He was worthy of being their leader. Whether in terms of skills or body transformation, he was better than them.
Si He concentrated on controlling the power, letting Black Hawk attack the officers and no longer had to worry about Hu Qing.
Hu Qing is like a manic beast at this moment. As long as they stay away from him, he will not pose a threat to them for the time being.
With the addition of Black Hawk, the situation became clear. A group of officers were beaten to a pulp and had no chance to escape. They fell in a pool of blood one after another.
Corpses were lying all over the ground. The weeds and fallen leaves were wet with blood, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
The valley returned to peace, with only Hu Qing in the distance still gnawing at the corpse. He was very vigilant while eating, looking up at them from time to time. If he hadn't been so hungry and needed to eat, he would have run away long ago!
Si He jumped down from the tree and saw that Ning Ji's body was covered with blood. She couldn't help but go forward to check anxiously.
But he didn't let her get close, fearing that the bloodstains would stain her. He said, "I'm fine."
His clothes were dirty, but there were no tears, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
……
Outside the deserted village, a group of villagers stood. They did not dare to follow the officials into the forest. After all, the monster before was too terrifying!
They had never seen such a terrifying monster, and the sound was also scary. They guessed that the villagers and officials who entered the mountain yesterday were probably killed by this monster!
They waited outside the deserted village for a while, and only vaguely heard the sounds of killing in the mountains and forests. They did not dare to go there rashly. After discussing for a while, they decided to return to the village first and let the officials handle the matter.
Although everyone was anxious to find the missing villagers, they still remained calm and composed.
However, just when they were halfway there, they encountered another group of officials. There were not many of them, only seven.
But the leaders were still two men in black. One of them wore a tent on his head and was dressed in extraordinary clothes, looking like their leader, while the other wore a mask on his face like the previous black guards.
Among the remaining five people were soldiers and officials, all of whom were extremely respectful to the man in black clothes and a tent on his head. It was obvious that he held a high position.
The villagers also had the foresight to lower their heads and salute respectfully.
After some questioning, the villagers told them what they had seen before, especially the appearance and ferocity of the monster, which they described in great detail.
A man-eating monster covered in scales!
Just listening to the descriptions of these villagers makes me feel creepy.
A team of officers had different expressions on their faces, especially the men who looked like officials. They wanted to retreat, but did not dare to speak out.
"lead the way."
The man wearing the tent only said two words. His voice was hoarse and sounded a little strange, but also very majestic and frightening.
No one dared to refute his words.
Helplessly, a group of villagers had to lead the way again, but they only led them to the outside of the deserted village and did not dare to go any further.
They did not bother the villagers any more and just rode their horses hurriedly towards the back mountain of the deserted village.
In the deep autumn forest, the autumn wind continued to blow. As soon as they arrived outside the forest, they smelled a faint smell of blood in the wind.
The forest was dark and gloomy, and even the sound of the wind was like the howling of wronged souls.
