Cannon fodder apprentice reborn

Surrounded by everyone, Li Yu didn't panic at all. Seeing that the girl's face was dark, but her eyes were big and her nose was high, especially her eyes were black and shiny, she was very handsome. We passed by this place last night and saw no one here, so we spent the night here, and we will leave soon.”

Although Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi didn't want to go with him, they still nodded in agreement.

The girl looked at them suspiciously, then turned around and said something to her companions in words that they couldn't understand, and those people put away their bows and arrows and moved out of the way.Then the girl said: "You go now, don't stay in the village!"

"Okay, let's go now."

Most of the time, Li Yu didn't have the airs of an emperor, he gave Ruan Qiu a wink, walked down the steps and walked out, Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi nodded and followed.These people have no cultivation base, but it is better not to cause conflicts.

The other party probably thought the same way. As soon as they approached, the other party's people backed away one after another. After they walked a certain distance, the girl with the bow on her back led the people to follow. Everyone finds it a bit strange.

Li Yu directly asked the girl who had talked with them, "Did something happen to you, why are you so anxious to drive us away?"

The young men seemed to be listening to the girl, and it was not difficult to see that the girl was the backbone of the group. When Li Yu asked, the young men looked wary, and the girl waved her hand, probably to appease them. Answer Li Yu.

"In the past, when guests came from far away, the village would definitely entertain you, but not now. There is a plague in our village. The wizard said that anyone who is close to our village may be infected with the plague. You stayed at Uncle Li's house last night. The village is far away, and Uncle Li is an old hunter who fell and died in the mountains last month, so the family should be fine." She pointed in a direction from a distance, "You go in this direction, and you can reach the nearest place in two days at most. town."

Ruan Qiu was a little curious, "Plague?"

Afraid that they might not believe it, the girl pulled up her burlap sleeves, revealing a not-so-slender but powerful arm, "Look, if you stay here, you will be infected with this plague, and blood will appear in your body within three days. It's starting to fester."

Her arms were all bruised, and at first glance it looked like dye was applied to them, but when she turned her wrists over, she revealed bloody red spots the size of fingernails. Someone next to her pulled down the mask, half of her face was the same, and there was a whole arm His flesh and blood have festered.

Ah Xi gasped, and Li Yu also said in surprise, "You all got infected?"

The girl looked serious, "You guys go, don't come here again."

I thought it was because the village rejected outsiders and drove them away, but I didn't expect that they were afraid that they would be infected with a curse.

Li Yu showed shame, but Ruan Qiu suddenly said, "This doesn't look like a plague."

Li Yu and Axi couldn't help but look at him, and the girl who could understand their words also looked over. Ruan Qiu had just observed the wounds on their bodies, and saw that their faces were obviously black and their lips were purple , the color of the nails, he had a guess in his heart. He had studied medicine, and when he saw this, he said bluntly: "You seem to be poisoned, and there is a demonic aura on the wound."

Hearing this, Li Yu re-examined the wounds on the faces and arms of those people.

The girl's eyes lit up when she heard what Ruan Qiu said, and she was afraid of something when she wanted to come over, so she stopped where she was, "You can see that this plague has a demonic aura, should it be a monk?"

Seeing Ruan Qiu's serious expression, Li Yu was puzzled, but the girl was overjoyed and said, "My name is Yunqi, and I know a little bit of magic, but I can't solve the plague in the village. You can see the evil spirit, can you help me?" We cured the disease?"

Ruan Qiu hesitated and shook his head, "I only have a little knowledge of medical skills, so I only took a look at your injuries. I don't know what the plague in your village is like, but I think you should all be poisoned. If it is really poisonous, then There will be a cure."

Yun Qi happily relayed the news to the rest of the people. Those young people had different expressions, and looked at them suspiciously while listening to Yun Qi's words.Taking advantage of the gap between their conversations, Li Yu asked Ruan Qiu in a low voice, "Did you read it right?"

Ruan Qiu asked back, "Didn't you see it?"

Li Yu didn't dare to take a closer look. After being reminded by Ruan Qiu, he saw that there was a trace of evil spirit in the festering wounds of those people, but if there was evil spirit, this so-called plague must be more troublesome than the real plague. He asked again: "You told Yunqi that this is a demon poison and not a plague, and you want to help them? Ruan Qiu, don't you have a mission and don't want to interfere with other things?"

This is also the question of Ruan Qiu's hesitation. He looked at Ah Xi, "Since we met, it is fate, but if you disagree, we will inform the government of Cang Yao Kingdom about the demonic poison here." He looked at To Li Yu, "Your Majesty doesn't care?"

Li Yu didn't intend to ignore it, he raised his eyebrows and said: "This is Cangyao's border, so they are also Cangyao's people, of course I won't ignore it, but I don't know if they want us to intervene. If they don't want to, I will do something else Let someone handle it."

As always, Ah Xi has no objection, not to mention that these people are actually okay. They know that there is a plague in the village, and they are afraid that they will stray into it. Brother Qiu's."

Yun Qi and a few companions also discussed it, and they bowed to them solemnly, and she said: "Please help us, my lords, if we can solve the plague, we are willing to give everything."

"That's not necessary, you guys get up first." Li Yu ejected a spiritual power to help Yun Qi and the others up. After they stood up, their eyes were full of wonder, and Yun Qi looked at them with more excitement. With these gazes, he looked back at Ruan Qiu.

"Shall we go into the village first?"

"Ah."

The three of them followed Yunqi and others into the village. Yunqi was still worried that the plague would infect them, so she stayed away from them all the way.It was also because of Li Yu's revelation just now that they were very convinced, and she also informed them of the situation in the village.

In fact, Yunqi had heard that there were plagues in several nearby villages long before the winter, but they were actually infected with the plague a month ago.After the winter, the villagers who went out to graze all returned to the village, but when the plague first appeared, their bodies were weakened and their bodies were bleeding. When the villagers found the bruises on their bodies, they thought they were bruises, and they didn’t pay much attention until the situation It got worse, and when someone died of this strange disease, the whole village was infected with this plague.

So far, more than 200 people from more than [-] households in the village have died, and all of them have been infected, but the difference is the severity.In addition, their symptoms in the later stage of severe illness were also different, but the ones who died were all strong and strong men in the past.

Yun Qi said: "Grandma Wu Ya in the village knows medical skills, and at first she delayed everyone's illness. She also said that the plague was weird, but her mother-in-law also left half a month ago. At that time, the plague in the village was at its worst. In time, the wizard will come."

When Ruan Qiu heard her mentioning the wizard again, she couldn't help being curious, "Did that mother-in-law also die of illness? Who is the wizard?"

Yun Qi shook her head, "Grandma died because of testing medicine. The wizard used to come to the village to help the villagers treat diseases. People in several nearby villages knew him. He has not left since he came to the village this time. He He also knows magic spells. People in the village who are seriously ill will be sent to him for treatment, and their condition has indeed improved when they come back. Unfortunately, after half a month, the wizard only found a way to relieve the pain, but still failed to cure the plague. More and more people are dying."

As they said that, they walked to a bare forest, which was very foggy, Yun Qi said: "After passing this forest, the entrance of our village is ahead, everyone, please follow us closely."

The three of Ruan Qiu also became serious, and followed Yun Qi and the others from a distance, chasing their footsteps through the thick fog. , the front suddenly became clear.

A large area of ​​buildings scattered at the foot of the mountain was the village where Yunqi and the others lived. At that time, Li Yu also had a flash of surprise in his eyes.

"Formation?"

Yunqi and the others kept a distance of one foot from them all the time, but she had indeed started Qi training, her hearing was excellent, the tip of her ear moved slightly, and she turned her head and said, "Yes, the wizard said, to prevent someone from accidentally entering the village and getting infected. The plague, so the array was arranged."

Ruan Qiu heard her mentioning the wizard again and again, and asked: "Your wizard seems to be a monk too. If he can lay such a powerful formation, is there really no way to deal with the plague in your village?"

Yun Qi frowned slightly, "The wizard said that because he came too late, he didn't know the root of the plague, so now he can only gather the people infected with the plague to prevent it from spreading to other places."

Li Yu also asked: "A wizard knows spells, so he should be a monk. He has been in your village for so long, so he didn't catch the plague?"

Yun Qi said with a complicated expression, "The wizard is also infected with the plague."

A plague that even monks can't resist?

But it was the first time for them to see this monstrous plague.

Everyone in the village was infected with the disease, and almost no one went out again. It was dead silent, and even the cattle and sheep in the sheep pen were pitifully few.

Yunqi explained that their village had been closed for too long, some of them were eaten, and some probably ran away because no one was looking after them. Fortunately, they had stockpiled food before winter and could carry it for a while.

The more you walk into the village, the more obvious the evil spirit is, probably because the seriously ill villagers all gathered in the village, they didn't meet anyone all the way, and finally Yunqi took them to the residence of that Granny Wu Ya, "My mother-in-law has a granddaughter named Yunzhu, who is nine years old this year. She was also infected with the plague a few days ago, but her condition is worse than ours, and she has a high fever. In fact, all the seriously ill people in the village are with the wizard. But because Granny Wuya has always disliked wizards, Yunzhu is not willing to go to the wizard's place, and I invite you to take a look at Yunzhu first, she can't stand it any longer!"

After bringing a few people into the village, Yun Qi was still very uneasy. After opening the door, she didn't dare to get close to the people, and only let Ruan Qiu and the other three enter the house. Li Yu shrugged, followed Ruan Qiu and A Xi to the bedside, and I saw a little girl lying on the bed with a pale and gray complexion.

Ruan Qiu saw that she was breathing weakly, she was indeed dying, and was about to feel her pulse, when Yun Qi outside the door hurriedly shouted: "Don't..."

"fine."

Ruan Qiu laughed, took the little girl's hand, pushed aside the agate beads, and gently landed on her wrist with two fingers, "We are monks, and our resistance is stronger than ordinary people. We just touch it, and if there is any problem, we will overcome it immediately." Just take the antidote pill."

Even so, Yun Qi was still very worried, "Then be careful."

Ruan Qiu looked at the little girl's pulse, and checked the bruises and festering on her arm, and then whispered to Li Yu and the other two: "This little girl's lips are blue and purple. Judging from the pulse, she is indeed poisoned, but it's okay. , There is no evil spirit on her body."

Li Yu wondered: "But Yun Qi and the others have demonic aura in their wounds, why is this little girl different from them?"

Ah Xi guessed: "Is it possible that sister Yunqi and the others have come into contact with something that this sister has avoided?"

Ruan Qiu and Li Yu also thought of this, and Li Yu thought about it: "It's obviously a demon poison, but it's a plague. Ruan Qiu, can you see what kind of poison it is? Is there any way to help them detoxify?"

"No." Ruan Qiu said: "Yunqi is right. The wizard came late. It is normal to find the root cause of the disease and not be able to cure it. We just came here. We just came to see the child's condition. We couldn't find the cause. There is no way to prescribe the right medicine.”

Li Yu looked at him in surprise, "Is this difficult? I thought you could do it."

Ruan Qiu glanced at him lightly, "Even if it's a cure, it's not that simple. I'm not a medical saint, and I don't have any elixir."

His eyes returned to the little girl on the bed, he used the formula to use the exercises, and with a light wave, the spiritual power sprinkled on the little girl like spring rain, and the little girl's complexion improved obviously with the naked eye.

Yun Qi, who was waiting outside the door, and several young people in the village saw Ruan Qiu making a move, and started discussing one after another, while Li Yu was also amazed when he saw Ruan Qiu's move, "It's ok, is she alright?"

Ruan Qiu said helplessly: "This is the basic skill of Vientiane Rejuvenation, the Xuanji Sect's Lingxi lineage. I don't know the cause of the disease, so I can only protect her heart and slow down the speed of the evil poison from eroding the viscera. It's just that her body is too weak. , must be detoxified as soon as possible."

When they were talking, Ah Xi, who had been paying attention to the little girl in Yunzhu, saw her fingertips move, and exclaimed, "She moved!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yunzhu's body trembled suddenly, as if she was waking up. Immediately afterwards, she turned her head towards the bedside and spit out a big mouthful of black blood, and lay back down again. Responding, Yun Qi rushed in through the door and rushed to the bed.

The little girl named Yunzhu coughed a few times after spitting out black blood, her eyelids trembled, and she really opened her eyes. Yunqi's worry was still on her face, she smiled happily, and turned her head to look at Ruan Qiuji for help. People, with hindsight, will retreat to the side.

"She's awake!"

Ruan Qiu saw it, and went forward to clasp Yunzhu's wrist. The little girl came back to herself in a daze, and saw the handsome young man in Tsing Yi who was sitting on the edge of the bed. She thought she was still in a dream, her voice was weak, He muttered something feebly.

Yun Qi laughed abruptly, and responded warmly with their words.

Li Yu was confused and asked curiously, "What did she say?"

Ruan Qiu also let go of her hands and stood up, then looked at Yun Qi in confusion, who smiled and said, "She thought she was still in a dream and saw a fairy."

Li Yu also smiled, and took a look at Ruan Qiu, "I said this face is pretty, look, it was mistaken for Brother Immortal, right?"

"You're bragging about yourself."

Ruan Qiu didn't know that, because Li Yu looked a bit like him, the good name of the fairy brother was secretly trying to get him.He didn't bother with Li Yu, turned around and told Yun Qi, "The poison on her body is only partially cleared, she should last for a while, and the fever should subside tonight, so you take care of her first. By the way, what medicine did she take before? "

Seeing that Yunqi was always avoiding them, she said: "It's nothing, if this is really a plague that can be transmitted by touch, I have come into contact with Yunzhu just now, and I also entered the village with you, it doesn't matter how far you are from us. Don't worry, I'm pretty sure it's demon poison."

Yunqi still didn't dare to get close, and just stayed at the corner of the bed. Yunzhu fell into a semi-comatose state. She tucked the quilt and said with a somewhat awkward accent: "Then can this kind of demon poison be contagious? Mother-in-law died. In the end, I was the one who took care of Yunzhu, and she took the medicine left by her mother-in-law before, and she refused to take the medicine from the wizard, so her condition has not improved."

Li Yu asked: "She refuses to take the wizard's medicine?"

"Yes, my mother-in-law left a prescription when she was still there, but it didn't work anymore. After the wizard came, I changed the prescription a few times. Everyone in the village took his medicine, and they did feel better after taking it. Relieve." Yunqi looked at Yunzhu rather distressed, "But because she doesn't like wizards, Yunzhu refuses to take the medicine of wizards, and insists on using her mother-in-law's prescription."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ruan Qiu and the others all had subtle expressions, and Li Yu whispered to them, "The evil spirit is not in the medicine, is it?"

"It's not impossible." Ruan Qiu asked again: "You have all taken the wizard's medicine, I wonder if you have any leftover medicine here?"

Yun Qi shook her head blankly, "No, because there are not many medicinal materials, the wizard will give us a pill every three days to relieve the pain."

Li Yu tilted his head to look at Ruan Qiu and A Xi—there is probably something wrong with the wizard.

Ruan Qiu lowered his eyes to agree.

Suddenly there was a voice outside the door. They are located on the border of Cangyao, and they spoke with an accent. Li Yu, the emperor of Cangyao, couldn't understand at all, let alone Ruan Qiu and Axi. They only knew that someone was coming and was Talk to a few young people outside the door.Yun Qi seemed to be frightened, she stood up in horror and said to the three of them: "The wizard and the village chief are here!"

She looked embarrassed, because the voices of several people outside the house were loud and noisy, she looked at the three of them, went out first, and talked to the middle-aged strong man wearing mink fur and wearing a gold ring outside the door.

That strong man should be the village head of the village. He brought a few people over, all wrapped up tightly, except for one person who was dressed differently from them.The man was much shorter than the villagers, and the material exposed under the black cloak was also different, revealing a bit of dark blue, and he just raised his head at this moment, revealing a blue-white face under the hood.

Ruan Qiu found the tattoo on his side face that couldn't be seen clearly, so he guessed the identity of this person. When the wizard's dark eyes looked into the room, he felt a strong sense of rejection in his heart.

Ah Xi shivered all over, and felt cold for no reason, "This person is so strange."

The wizard glanced at them, and then looked away. Li Yu smiled and glanced at Ah Xi, "Are you scared? He came just as soon as we talked about the wizard. This person is very well-informed."

He asked Ruan Qiu again, "Guess what he is here for?"

Ruan Qiu didn't really want to play this kind of small game with him, so he replied truthfully, "If they came after us, they would either drive us out of the village like Yunqi and the others did at the beginning, or..."

Li Yu rubbed his chin, "Keep us here? If he has no ghosts in his heart and is focused on solving the plague, it would be good for everyone to have a few more friends, but if the plague is all related to him, he won't want us to intervene, so it's okay to keep us here." In order to destroy the corpse."

Ruan Qiu nodded.

Hearing what they said, Ah Xiguang felt chills down his spine, "Then what shall we do?"

Li Yu pouted, "It's up to you."

What should I do?

Ah Xi secretly thought that this guy was playing tricks, and before she could ask clearly, Yun Qi came back with a troubled expression on her face, and everyone outside the house did not leave.

Yunqi bowed deeply to the three of them, "The village chief asks you to leave... I know you can help Yunzhu, but the village chief thinks we are already in deep trouble, and I don't know if we can survive and stop hurting others. You have just entered the village and haven't had much contact with us, so you should leave as soon as possible."

Ah Xi was inconceivable, "But Yun Zhu got better when Brother Xiaoqiu took action just now, which means that we may be able to help you eradicate the plague, so you also want to drive us away?"

Yun Qi shook her head distressedly, looked outside the door and said: "The wizard said, this matter is not that simple, he has sent someone to report it to the government, and soon monks will come here to check the situation, this is not a problem that ordinary people can solve, You go first."

"This……"

Axi still wanted to say something, so she asked Li Yu to press her shoulders. She raised her head and stared at Li Yu, but the latter sighed regretfully, "Since you have already made a decision, we will leave first."

Ruan Qiu didn't speak any more, but shook her head at Axi, signaling her to listen to Li Yu.

Yun Qi bowed deeply again, "Thank you for your kindness, I'm sorry."

Li Yu shrugged, and walked to the door, Ruan Qiu followed with Ah Xi, the villagers outside all made way, only the village chief and the wizard were still standing there.The village chief's face was blue and black, and his eyes were equally dark, staring at them silently.

They didn't meet the wizard until they passed by.

The corners of the wizard's face and mouth were raised under the cover of the wizard's black robe, his smile was cold, and his voice was a bit chilly, "It's a good thing that young people are willing to help others, but there are some things, you'd better not get involved."

Li Yu stopped and looked at the wizard with a smile. Ruan Qiu was afraid that he would fight with someone on the spot, and was about to speak when Li Yu conveniently turned his head, looked ahead, and walked towards the entrance of the village.

Ruan Qiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly followed.

Yun Qi and the others escorted them all the way outside the village entrance, and they walked out of the misty forest before they really walked out of the village.

Ah Xi was full of aggrieved stomachs, and couldn't help but vomit until now, "We are here to save people, why doesn't this village chief know what to do!"

Li Yu seemed to like teasing her, "How do you know if the village head is willing? Didn't you find out that he was controlled by a wizard?"

Ah Xi was stunned, "What?"

Ruan Qiu didn't notice this, because Li Yu's words were always mixed with truth and falsehood, so he asked, "Is the village chief really under control?"

Li Yu recalled the meeting when he passed by just now, but he was actually not sure, "It should be, the village head has the most evil aura, and he still has a bit of the same aura as that wizard."

In terms of evil spirit, Ruan Qiu agrees, "The people who came with the village chief also have more evil spirit than Yunqi and the others."

"Then isn't this village controlled by that wizard?" Axi said, "Then why did we leave the village just now?"

Ruan Qiuwen said softly: "Someone wants us to leave. We are newcomers, so we are not as deep-rooted as the wizard in the village. What's more, we haven't found out what the plague in the village is. It is not appropriate to confront the wizard head-on, but we can't sit idly by."

A Xi breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you guys really didn't care about it. There are still a lot of people in such a big village." She sometimes acts a bit extreme, but she has always been unambiguous when it comes to saving lives. She asked the two, "Then What do we do now?"

Ruan Qiu was silent, he hadn't planned yet.

Li Yu pondered for a moment, then asked Ruan Qiu, "You saw the wizard just now, did you find any signs of poisoning that Yun Qi mentioned?"

Ruan Qiu frowned, "He is wearing a cloak, with only one face exposed, I can't see anything clearly, but his cultivation base should be higher than mine."

Li Yu asked again: "If you are wizards, and someone finds clues that point to the plague being related to you, you bring the village chief here immediately to drive them away, what will you do afterwards?"

Ah Xi said that she didn't like to talk to him, and she was the first to answer at this time, she thought for a while, and said: "Then if the plague was caused by a wizard, he definitely doesn't want anyone to expose this secret, so he Will you kill us to silence us?"

Ruan Qiu said: "His cultivation base is higher than ours, there is no reason why he can't see the evil spirit, but he told everyone that it is a plague, Yunzhu is the only one in the village who has not eaten his medicine, and is the only one who has not been infected by the evil spirit." man, the plague must have something to do with him."

Li Yu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Then let's ignore this matter and wait for the wizard to come to the door. I believe he won't be able to wait for long."

Ruan Qiu looked at his strategizing appearance, then looked at the village surrounded by mist, and finally nodded, "Okay."

They didn't intend to leave for the time being, so they went back to the wooden house on the mountain. Because they left in a hurry this morning, the things in the house hadn't been cleaned up yet, so they came back now to tidy up, but the whole day passed, and there was no movement in the wooden house.

It gets dark early in winter, and seeing the sky darken, the dilapidated wooden house is also lit with warm fires, and the weather is still calm.

The three of them sat in front of the stove, waiting for the charcoal fire to slowly roast the chestnuts around the stove, and the opening that had been drawn before was quietly opened.

Li Yu was still so leisurely and comfortable while eating chestnuts, while Ah Xi was worried, "It's getting dark, hasn't the wizard made a move yet?"

"It's only getting dark now, what's the rush." ​​Li Yu said and stuffed another piece of chestnut meat into his mouth. He didn't know where these chestnuts came from. There were some piled up in the cellar, and they were especially delicious when roasted.

Ruan Qiu saw that most of the chestnuts by the stove had entered Li Yu's mouth, and silently picked a few for A Xi's side. The firelight reflected on his calm face, and his voice was as calm as before. "Your Majesty, in Cang Yao Country, if you encounter such a thing that seems to be caused by monsters, how will you deal with it?"

Li Yu just doesn't like to hear Ruan Qiu call him that. He always feels yin and yang, which makes him very uncomfortable. "Can't you stop calling me Your Majesty and call Brother Yu? If people encounter such things, they should report to the officials." Ah. We, Cang Yao, build our country with martial arts. You should know that the higher the official position, the higher the level of cultivation. But in addition to military commanders, there are also civil servants. We value monks as much as civil servants. Your sect pays attention to transcending the mundane world and disdains As long as it is Cang Yao people, the imperial court will take care of ordinary things, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, etc. The government can judge disputes between ordinary people, as well as demons and ghosts. In addition, we also have an official office that specializes in eliminating demons and defending the way, called the Department of Mirrors , The big monsters that the government can't control will be handed over to the Department of Mirrors."

"It's the same practice. Zongmen cultivates the way of birth, and Cang Yao manages the disputes in the world and protects the people of the ten directions. It is also the right way. Although the way is different, the end point is the same." Li Yu has always understood this very clearly, "It's like My father, who died long ago, as the Son of Heaven, didn't he still die in the battle against demons?"

Ruan Qiu felt a little bit about what he said, but he would never call out brother Yu, "If you report to the government, will the government come?"

"Who knows?" Li Yu said with a self-deprecating smile, "What you said just now sounds like Cang Yao's monks are no different from sects, but whoever falls into this officialdom will not be stained with blackness? Although I I have never really been in power, and I know that the power disputes in the court have never stopped, especially in today's situation where the emperor is weak and surrounded by officials, several mountains are pressing on my head, the holy queen, the national teacher, the general, and the princes of all walks of life, How many people are willing to listen to me, the emperor?"

Ah Xi didn't quite understand, and she looked at him with sympathy, "Then you are quite pitiful, that is to say, it is useless even if you report to the police?"

Li Yu spread his hands, "It may not be useful, the border is too far away from the imperial palace, even if the mother came later, the soldiers here may not listen to her."

Ah Xi really believed it, "But I heard that the Holy Queen is very powerful."

Ruan Qiu's eyes flickered, "Do you think that we entered the village today and got clues about the plague and wizards going too smoothly?"

Li Yu paused, "What do you mean?"

Ruan Qiu shook his head, lowered his head to peel a chestnut, and was about to pick out the plump chestnut meat, his eyes flickered, and he gestured to the two of them, and the two of them reacted, and their expressions became serious.

Ah Xi mouthed and asked: Are you here?

Li Yu's ears moved slightly, and he nodded.

The lantern hanging on the door suddenly went dark, and the northwest wind blew past.

Something hit the window, making a rattling sound, and at the same time Ruan Qiu called out the spirit sword, he saw something crawling in through the crack of the window, rustling, black and red scorpions. It flooded into the house like a tide.

Several people looked solemn, Li Yu kicked the stove away, and the charcoal fire rolled all over the ground, temporarily blocking the scorpion group, he ran towards the door again.

"Go out first!"

Ruan Qiu pulled Ah Xi, "Let's go!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Yu opened the door, he was almost slashed by a knife. He reacted extremely quickly, holding the embroidered knife with a layer of golden spiritual power in his hand, and kicked the figure in front of the door flying away, with a flash of inspiration in his hand , and took out a high-grade spirit sword.

I don't know when a lot of people came outside the door. At first glance, there were 30 to [-] people, and they surrounded the whole room. Li Yu cut a path with his sword, and it was only after Ruan Qiu and Ruan Qiu came out that they realized the difference.

"Not a living person, but a puppet?"

Li Yu raised his sword to block the door, his eyes were full of puzzlement, the poisonous scorpions in the room also rushed out, Ruan Qiu blocked them inside the door with a sword, and when he heard the sound, he turned around and realized that those people were wrong.

It was pitch black outside the door, and they only saw more than 20 figures at first. When they came out to take a closer look, how could these be living people?They are all shriveled and rotten corpses, but they can take up arms and attack them!

Ruan Qiu's expression froze, he withdrew his sword intent, and called Axi.Ah Xi responded crisply, and then took out a pack of powder from her backpack and sprinkled it out. In an instant, those scorpions that had been covered with the powder started to burn by themselves, and a group of scorpions could be stained by one fire.

Seeing this, Ruan Qiu took her out of the house and rushed to help Li Yu.

Li Yu formed alchemy anyway, these puppets are nothing to him, he only saw his spiritual power on the sword, and with a bang, all the puppets were knocked back, just clearing the way for Ruan Qiu and the others to come.

Those mummified corpses couldn't stand the power of the Jindan cultivator's sword, they fell to the ground and couldn't get up again, and there was also a huge rancid smell.

Ah Xi immediately pinched her nose, and Ruan Qiu also held her breath without saying a word.

"Maybe you can change your style of play next time?"

Li Yu couldn't stand the mummies all over the ground, and touched his nose, "I still hope that they are not the ones I encounter next time."

The fire in the wooden house was still burning, and the flames were soaring into the sky. Even their only shelter was gone, but the surroundings had become quiet.

Ruan Qiu still felt that this was going too smoothly. He glanced around and caught a glimpse of a huge shadow. He reacted and pulled Ah Xi away, and the spirit sword flew out at the same time——

"careful!"

Following Ruan Qiu's reminder, Li Yu came back to his senses, and drew his sword in the direction where Zhirou flew, only to see the green light of the sapphire sword flickering, pointing directly at Li Yu's back with a refreshing but sharp sword energy, where there was A scorpion taller than a wooden house appeared!

Looking at the black and red lines on his back, this looks like the scorpion king of the group of scorpions just now!

Wrapping Zhirou's sword to block the tail needle that was about to pierce Li Yu's back, it actually grazed sparks, making the sound of metal and stone colliding. Li Yu followed closely with the sword, and was also pushed back a few steps by the tail needle.

Ruan Qiu raised his hand to catch the returned sapphire sword, and watched Li Yufei retreat, but the Scorpion King swung his front pincers again. He raised his sword and ran over. Li Yu was generally thrown out with force.

"Brother Xiaoqiu!"

Ah Xi saw the Scorpion King's tail needle move, her heart tightened, she pulled out a whip, and threw it in front of Ruan Qiu in mid-air, and Ruan Qiu saw the tail needle that was about to be stabbed, grabbed the whip without hesitation, followed Ah Xi Yi exerted all his strength, and happened to pass by the tail needle.

Li Yu finally adjusted his state, raised his sword to meet him, "Let me go!"

Ruan Qiu let go of the whip, let out a breath of foul air and stood up from the ground. Ah Xi ran over nervously, "Brother Xiao Qiu, is everything alright?"

"It's okay." Ruan Qiu looked at the Scorpion King, who was diverted by Li Yu, with a dignified expression, "This Scorpion King is very evil, but fortunately, he has not cultivated human form yet, and his realm should be around the fourth level. Li Yu is a Golden Core Stage , I guess it can still deal with the Scorpion King."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yu, who was still fighting with the Scorpion King, yelled angrily, "No, you plan to let me deal with the Scorpion King alone? Ruan Qiu, why do you keep bullying me!"

Who is bullying whom?

Hearing Li Yu's resentful tone of being abandoned, Ruan Qiu raised his voice, "The weakness of the Scorpion King is the abdomen, but its body is too poisonous..."

Before Ruan Qiu finished speaking, the Scorpion King, who was accidentally injured by Li Yu, spit out a strong poison in anger. Li Yu quickly backed away, but the place where he was before was quickly corroded by the poison. He twitched his forehead, and shouted in the direction of Ruan Qiu: "What do you say, stop talking!"

"……it is good."

Ruan Qiu stopped talking, and pulled Ah Xi to retreat to make room.

Finally, taking advantage of the fact that the Scorpion King had just sprayed the venom and hadn't recovered, Li Yu seriously injured the Scorpion King's abdomen with his sword.The lifeblood was stabbed, and the Scorpion King let out an ear-piercing hiss, and the evil spirit immediately spread for dozens of feet, and Li Yu told it to flee without noticing it for a while.

Li Yu was also forced to inhale a few lingering poisons mixed in the evil spirit, he frowned, and chased after him with a somewhat irritable expression.

"Chase!"
